The thing begins to follow Jacob out of the bathroom like some obscene pogo stick.
Jacob takes a deep breath. "Okay, Jacob, you can handle this. You handled Ramona, even when she was alternately puking her guts out, and sticking needles in places where needles do not go. Compared to that bit of seering horror, this is a walk in the park."
He walks to kitchen then picks up a wooden spoon. "Okay, boy--get the stick. Get the stick!" he says cheerily, then tossing it in the corner.
