1. Last night after eating a fav dish, had a #TangoOfDeath w/#CircleOfHellHeartburn. The kind where despite knowing u’re 2 healthy 2 b having 1 🤞🏻, u still vaguely hope that u’re having a heart attack so the 🔥PAIN🔥 will end. Sweating, bent over chewing antacids like tic tacs.

2. Finally fell asleep in a fetal position & woke up & thought— #DeathPeppers... w/a little work, there’s a #SyFy movie waiting to be born. 🤪 😈 So here goes:
Millennial chef Whilhemina Pepper decides to open a CaliTexMexChinese fusion restaurant Called “Chill Will’s”.

3. She has developed her own special to-be-branded peppers that will be used. Unbeknownst to her, the manager she hires is an unknown 3rd cousin twice removed who is— BENT ON REVENGE! (And just happens to be a plant geneticist.😉) Evil cousin gets access ro the peppers and...

4. Alters them genetically so that upon eating within 72 hrs— METAMORPHOSIS BEGINS TO HAPPEN. 🎃 I’m thinking a cross between the #LittleShopOfHorrors plant & an #Ent. (Note to self: If these are trademarked, seek help of makeup artists specializing in creature design.) 😇

5. The scary creatures then begin to wreak havoc. Just breathing their perfume can begin to alter DNA. (Evil cousin figures not every1 will be up for fusion cuisine. 🤔) Prolonged contact & you blister & catch on fire.
BUT meanwhile—
husband & wife team of plant biologists...

6. Flora & Franz (good geniuses) & fans of Chill Will’s & Whilhemina ( there may or may not be a thruple here 🤫) have been on a harvesting expedition to garher seeds for a seed bank & have missed ingesting the bad peppers. They catch on to the link between the metamorphoses &...

7. Chill Will’s as ground zero for the hordes of— [need to come ip w/a name for the creatures]. Whilhemina is unaffected, despite being the chef, because she has a rare generic condition that protects her from having her DNA altered. Lo’ & behold, the evil cousin has it too—

8. Which leads our intrepid threesome to the conclusion that... there’s something shady afoot regarding the manager. 💡 They get his fingerprints & DNA & hack an ancestry website to find the link to Whilhemina. (Drat, forgot. She’s a hacker as well. 😃) They devise a...

9. Will, Flora & Franz create a DNA reversal serum from Will’s DNA. Sadly/not sadly— in a struggle, evil cousin (Didn’t I name him? 💩! Um... can’t use Lucifer... maybe, Rexx? Rexx it is.) Rexx is injected w/the DNA reversal serum which reverses his immunity to the creatures.

10. Rexx escapes from the restaurant & thinking he’s still immune, rushes into a horde of the creatures thinking he can escape BUT— he goes up like a roman candle (the serum enhanced the effect of the creatures on him) & takes out the surrounding horde. 💣
MEANWHILE!...

11. Back at the restaurant (Chill Will’s, in case I lost u some where), Will, Flora & Franz have been busy creating enough of the reversing serum 2 put in a mister which they take airborne in a crop duster. (Flora’s a crack pilot.) The town (a SMALL resort town) is saved! 😃

12. Thus endeth my tale. (Got another perking— a mashup about peppers, mesmerism & #TheRedShoes but— another day. 😉) So in closing, let me leave you w/a fav clip of mine from #TheSimpsons (It involves peppers.) 😈:

There’s also this little animated gem. 😈:

Sweet dreams tonight. 🤗 🖖🏻
