There were a few more items on the wheel, but Jon didn't get time to read them because the wheel landed on...
"Kissable lips."
"OK" thought Jon, "not too bad, it shouldn't interfere too much with any of the future challenges."
Jon was then taken aside into a small room off stage. Inside there was something like a dentist chair, a nurse, two camera teams and someone who Jon thought might be a doctor.
After being seated in the chair, the "doctor" began to explain, mostly to the camera rather than Jon, what they would be doing.
"Jon", the doctor started, "for your penalty, you will be given a pair of delightfully kissable lips."
"First, we will use our vey latest nanite enhanced saline lip plumper." "Once injected, it will reshape and volumize your rather thin male looking lips, to give you a pair of puffy, pouty stunningly kissable lips that any model or perhaps porn actress would be proud to have."
"But that is only step one of our process, next we will give you a short session with the "Neuralizer 2000", our patented tool for ensuring that you will keep those DSL's looking their glossy, kissable best. Any questions before we begin?"
Jon was still struggling to understand what he was even doing here, but the Neuralizer thingy seemed pretty scary, so he asked, "How does that Neuralizer thing work?"
The doctor replied, again to the camera, "I am sure that you and millions would like to know exactly how it works, but as it is a proprietary secret, I am not at liberty to explain. However, as far as you are concerned, after a few minutes under the Neuralizer 2000, you will gain the ability to properly use all manner of lipstick and lip gloss, all the necessary skills to keep your new lips looking their best. And just to make sure that you don't neglect them, at the same time you will receive a slight adjustment to your psyche, you will also gain an urge, a slight compulsion if you will, to apply that lipstick and keep them looking shiny, full and delicious."
"Adjust my psyche?" Jon queried. "You're not messing with my brain!" Jon defiantly declared.
The doctor merely nodded to the nurse, who without a word injected something into Jon's arm. In moments he was unconscious.
First each of his lips received several small injections, which gradually increased the volume of his lips dramatically. When they looked more like duck lips that human, the doctor placed a helmet like device on top of Jon's head.
Turning once more to the camera,, he explained, "The Neuralizer 2000 serves a duel purpose, as I have already mentioned. Stage one will be the uploading of the necessary skills and abilities Jon will need to look after his new lips and keep them looking magnificent. In seconds, he will have permanently implanted in his mind, all the skills and experience to flawlessly apply lipstick, liner and gloss, as if he had been doing it his entire life. Stage two, will be an irresistible urge to keep his lips looking their best, tied with the compulsion to match their colour with whatever he is wearing or planning to wear."
"From the moment he awakes in the morning, until he goes to sleep at night, Jon will from this point on, always be conscious of a need to keep his lips looking great, and if he should notice or feel that they don't. he will stop whatever he is doing and repair his lipstick, add gloss, change colour or do whatever he needs to do in order to have them always looking their best."
No doubt this might prove problematic in the challenges yet to come...
