You lounge back in your chair with your arms resting behind your head, a huge grin on your face. When you woke up this morning, you never imagined you'd have a random fling with a woman you've never even met. It was amazing, but something clicks in the back of your head. If you're your dad right now, and what just happened was normal, then that means he's been cheating on your mother! You just helped your father cheat on your mother. You participated! Any sliver of guilt over stealing your father's body was erased, and if your dad hadn't already blabbed about your situation by the time you went home, you had the means to blackmail him into shutting up.
***
As the day rounded off, and the office began to shut down, you had compiled a list of names of people that you might like to use the machine to switch with. Some of them were people you knew, others exclusive enough that you might need to abuse your father's power to get them into your shed. You'd been secretly hoping that another secretary would corner you in the office before the day was over, but no luck. You shut down the office, and depart, returning to your father's car. As it warms up, you browse through your father's smartphone. No text messages or missed phone calls from your yourself, your home number or even your mother. Did your dad keep his mouth shut? And was that a good thing, or a very, very bad thing?
