[ A glowing glow stick?  That's just crazy enough that it might work! ]

"Your lizard seems to have escaped confinement," Tina said, flatly.  
"With any luck, it is no doubt mounting a rescue operation to free us 
from our prison."

She got up and kicked Carlie's foot, not really testing to see if she 
was awake, but making sure she wasn't dead.

The effects of the drug were strong, enough to make each step a little 
unsure, as if she were trying to walk across ice during an earthquake, 
but it wasn't the first time Tina had been drugged.  A lot of strange 
things happened during the war.  This wasn't new enough to surprise her.
