Well, nearest I can figure is Bb on a

  Hermey decides to exude some confidence, which he sorely lacks being such a 
  misfit. Since General Electric produced advertisements using characters from

  acenes in the original production, but went on to make a career in Vegas doing 
  cabaret.? Sadly, he was found in bed with the the mayor's wife and 
  dissappeared quite suddenly after that.

So what you're saying is the mayor eventually went to jail and therein had 
to assume the 3rd position, which was to Bb so that his cell mate could score. 
And that's why it sounds that way. Is that right?
