11. Wind Beneath My Wings

0.0

Super is at the hospital yet again. It's the ten year anniversary of the opening of the compound, and Donald was helping him rehearse his big number at the opening where he flies around on wires lip-synching to "Wind Beneath My Wings" by Bette Midler. A miscalculation occurred and he crashed right through the bulb wall. Randy Travis sings "Singing the Blues". Super is incredibly depressed that he is in the hospital during this special evening, and Donald, disgusted that the orderlies just left Super in the hall, finds a nice small room to put him in. The Northern Pikes sing "Kiss Me You Fool". Super is still determined to do the show for his fans, so he has Donald take him back to the studio on his stretcher against the doctor's orders. On his return, the audience gives him a standing ovation. The bulb wall has even been replaced, and the billboard says "We Love You Super".
