While on a business trip to San Diego, Glenn spent a night of hot and heavy sex with Christine, a sales rep from the St. Louis office. While doing his laundry after he got home, Monica, Glenn's wife, discovered a lipstick stain on the collar of one of his shirts. Angrily confronting him, Monica accused Glenn of having an affair. Glenn denied it all, saying the stain was from a white board marker he used during his presentation.

Little 9-year old Timothy was a bad boy at school today. First he threw mud on Amanda Tully and then he got in a fight with Ben Sample. Timothy's mom heard all about this from the teacher and warned Tim, "Just wait till your father gets home." Sure enough Timothy is bent over his bed, pants around his ankles, and his father is giving a good spanking with a belt.

Yegor is flying his MiG-29 through the cold winter skies far above eastern Russia. He has made visual contact with Korean Air Lines Flight 007 (KAL 007), carrying 269 passengers and a crew of 9, which due to a navigation malfunction, has drifted over a super-secret Soviet naval base in the So.

Paul Oldman, the floor supervisor at the Green River plant of Robust Manufacturing Inc., has had it. Productivity is down because the workers keep sneaking out through the fire doors to take smoking breaks. First he tried talking to them. Then he posted signs on the doors. He tried surveillance cameras but they just got covered up by rags. Now he's chaining the doors shut. Take that you ungrateful bastards!

Sage Energy Developers is a high-flying darling of Wall Street. For the past three years its earnings have greatly exceeded expectations so Sage's stock price has soared. Last year, though, Sage made some risky investments in several natural gas wells in Pakistan and lost lots of money. Knowing these bad investments would negatively impact on Sage's stock price, Kim Masterson, Sage's CFO, created several dummy companies wholly owned by Sage and shifted the bad investments into the balance sheet of those companies.

Tyrone was just coming home late (11:30 pm) after work and some time at the bar with his buddies. In the dark vestibule of his apartment building he was struggling to get the key in the lock. Suddenly two police officers, who had just pulled up in their cruiser, confronted him with drawn guns. Frightened, Tyrone reached into his jacket pocket to get his wallet. He wanted to identify himself as a resident of the building. Misinterpreting the move, the officers pumped 12 bullets into Tyrone, killing him instantly.
