The sun had begun to set as George ran as fast as his legs could carry him back to Hyde Park. He said while doing so, "I hope me mates are still in there! Asking that poor excuse for a woman out was such a big mistake."

However, Dahlia wasn't quite ready to give up yet. Even though she no longer had control over George's mind, the necklace had managed to help her catch up to him just as he was getting closer to the park's gates.

Then... it happened: A small towel with a splat of chloroform was placed on his mouth, causing him to slow down and feel dizzy for a few seconds. "So ya think you could...

As timing would have it, the other Beatles also happened to be in Hyde Park for a picnic, so George figured that he'd introduce Dahlia to them first before starting their date. "I surely hope Geo is going to be all right." Paul said as they were just about to eat. "So do I, Macca. So do I." Ringo added. "Well, we did try to warn him, so fingers crossed that he takes note of it." John replied. Paul and Ringo nodded in agreement.

Around ten minutes later, the "couple" came into the scene. "Mates, I'd like you to meet my new girlfriend Dahlia! We met at a pub just last night." George said. Unfortunately,...

Finding Doria's lair turned out to be a breeze, for while the mad scientist was sipping on her drink, she heard the door open and shut with a loud bang. "Hey, I thought no one else could look for this place of mine!" she said. "Surprise, surprise! That is, until now." a man's voice replied.

Doria then saw something she didn't expect to see again: Three very angry-looking mop-topped lads were coming into the kitchen and approaching her with marching footsteps.

"Oh, great. Somehow, I knew you'd end up here." she groaned. "Pretty clever, eh?" John replied. "Now tell us," Paul demanded. "Where is...

"Ohhhh... Where am I?" George said as he slowly woke up. "Exactly as I told you we'd proceed to. Welcome to my lair!" Dahlia replied. That response was enough to trigger his anger again, for he found himself in what appeared to be her laboratory. It also didn't help that he had been strapped to an operating table, complete with the helmet-like thing on his head which was connected to a giant robot.

"Grrr!!! This is getting out of hand! I shouldn't have talked with you at that pub in the first place!" George exclaimed. "Actually, I'm not who you think I am." Dahlia said. "Then who are you, really?"...

We now move on to Harrods, where the "couple" was currently in a shopping trip of sorts. "After this, we shall proceed to my lair in Epping Forest. Would you like that?" Dahlia said as she decided to buy a pocket watch. "I'd love to." George replied, still under the spell. "Excellent!" Dahlia replied. "Mm-hmm." George nodded.

It wasn't long until the other Beatles entered the department store, and with a gut feeling that a showdown was on its way, they went to look for some items that could function as makeshift weapons. "I'm not one who advocates for killing, but I've got a strong urge to kill...

Meanwhile, George (who was beginning to have second thoughts about the "relationship") had just managed to free himself from Dahlia's grasp by telling her to watch the swans for a moment. Luckily, he soon spotted an approaching fan and went straight to greet her with a hug, to which she excitedly returned.

"I'm so happy to see you, Georgie! You're my favourite Beatle!" The fan said afterwards. "Likewise, love. Thank you!" George smiled. He then said, "If ye don't mind me asking, what's your name?" The fan replied, "I don't mind it at all. My name's Wendy." George replied, "How veddy nice! So,...

George then spent the evening at a pub while waiting for a potential girl whom he could start a relationship with. Me mates just don't understand. The sooner I find a date, the earlier I can possibly get married! That isn't really a bad thing, right? he thought after taking a sip of his wine.

At that moment, he heard a woman's voice coming from one of the more private areas: "Hey, you wanna have a chat?" So he transferred there and greeted her with a smile. The woman herself appeared to be a year older and was dark-haired, wore crimson red lipstick, a bluish purple long-sleeved dress, and (weirdly)...

(Flashback...)

So this happened on February 1964. Just a day after my 21st birthday, we were about to begin our rehearsals for the new tour when I had wanted to try my luck on dating someone. Me mates, however, warned me to be careful as they thought this wasn't the right time yet and that there are women who can take advantage of us for their own gain. Let me tell ya, what unfolded would turn out to be quite a learning experience on my part!

The Beatles were currently in Abbey Road Studios and had just wrapped up a meeting which pertained to their upcoming tour. "All right, so we'll start rehearsing...

It was the first day of Spring in the UK, and as the chimes of Big Ben signaled noontime, we join the Harrisons while they admired the view of the River Thames (with some passing boats) from Westminster Bridge.

"Well, girls, the next story from the early part of our success is gonna be a wild one. Ready to hear all about it?" George asked his wife and daughter a couple of minutes later. "You know we are, darling! As a matter of fact, I was just about to ask if you had any girlfriends during that period and how the relationship went." Pattie replied. "Yeah, that'll be quite interesting." Laura agreed. "Great. You'll find out the answer to your question soon, my dear!" George replied.

So with those words, it has commenced.
