She was expecting, but never delivered.
"Hey, Gran, it's me again." "Who?"
Wedding last year. Funeral this year.

"Hey dad!" "Stop calling this number."
DARK ONES:
"It's your fault!" "WATCH THE ROAD!"
Burglar breaks in: homeowner breaks out.
Eight years almost up. Family terrified.
"Did you kill him?" "No comment."
FUNNY/LIGHTHEARTED ONES:
Told to isolate. Died in freezer.
Dye factory robbed: perpetrator caught red-handed.
Missing: virginity. If found, please return.
Cases closed. Bar patriots in riot.
The next station is.... on fire??
