The fireman-carry: Plasmatron-7 discharged out to the Green Line T-stop

texture · ~YDPAH (Gately's residency)

• When: during Gately's Ennet House residency (~YDPAH), before Gately's move from the 5-Man to the 3-Man room
• What: When the Harvard Square industrial-grunge resident Bernard ("Plasmatron-7") drank nine bottles of NyQuil in the men's upstairs head and pitched face-first into his instant spuds at supper, he "got discharged on the spot, and got fireman-carried by Calvin Thrust right out to Comm. Ave.'s Green Line T-stop." One clause, but a load-bearing one for how House discipline physically works: Thrust is the staff muscle who carries the enforcement the rules call for — the same zero-shit register as event 3, and the same body-hauling role he will reprise in the other direction on Gately's behalf in event 7. Gately got moved up to Plasmatron-7's old bunk in the 3-Man room, the move that dates the memory.
