**Dick Ford** is the rich former lover of Elektra Abundance.

## Biography

### Elektra

Dick Ford met and established a relationship with Elektra Abundance; though he is frequently busy with business affairs and travels, he returns to New York City, venting through sexual pleasure with her. The two managed a long-lasting relationship for ten years, Ford granting her an allowance in his absence.

Returning from his trip to London, Ford met with Elektra in his room. Leaving the shower, the two conversed briefly before engaging in intercourse. He was, then, asked about providing funds for Elektra's sex reassignment surgery, prompting him to cover with a rob and decline to gift her money to transition, unable to express why he prefers her in this body.

Having another encounter months later, Ford and Eletkra become intimately close to one another; Ford caresses her legs until he discovers that she had received the operation. Upset, he began to clothe himself, expressing that he wish to break from Elektra and requesting that she left his hotel room.

Quickly, he strikes a new affair with a different woman and barred Elektra from any further contact with him.

## Relationships

### Romances

* **Elektra Abundance**: Meeting Elektra in a bar, Ford found sexual interests in her, though fetishizing, and provided financial support for her to take his physical absence in New York City. However, he cared little for Elektra's emotions and feelings towards her transgenderism and highly disproved of her seeking a sex change. When he discovers that she received the operation, Ford quickly rejected her and sought a new woman to take Elektra's place.

## Lyrics

You know I've spent some nights

Basking in the light of a million shooting stars

You know I've made some hearts in an old tree bark

But I've forgotten where they are

I saw the river run to where the current's done

It's not the same with just anyone

I saw the blue moon rise with my very eyes

And you weren't there and I realized

That wherever you're with me

Is my favorite place to be

On the sunny days I can find my way

Walking through our memories

When the sky's all dark and the rain falls hard

You know it's still alright with me

'Cause when the wind blows strong I know that I belong

Where you left off is where I carry on

I looked up and to my surprise

You were there and I realized

That wherever you're with me

It's my favorite place to be

All we need

Is the air we breathe

The big blue sky above

The ground beneath our feet

All we need

Is to never leave

'Cause me and you and you and me

My favorite place to be

You know I spent some nights

Basking in the light of a million shooting stars

They could all go out but when you come around

We're so shining in the dark

'Cause we might be right and we might be wrong

All I know is that you belong

I looked up and to my surprise

You were there and I realized

That wherever you're with me

Is my favorite place to be

The Celebrity Game

***The Celebrity Game*** is the old and mostly-forgotten precursor to *Hollywood Squares*.

## Gameplay

Three contestants predicted how nine celebrities answered yes or no questions. Each contestant picked a star and predicted whether the chosen star answered yes or no. After that, the panel revealed their answers and gave hilarious explanations of their answers. If all three contestants were correct, they all won $25; if two of the contestants were correct, they both won $50. If only one contestant had the correct prediction, s/he won $100. Each player would then choose from the remaining six celebrities and then from the remaining three celebrities and the same payout structure applied. The next round would be played the same way but with a different question.

In the third and final round of each night's show, the contestants predicted whether the majority of the panel answered yes or no with a pot of $300 at stake. Those contestants who agreed with the majority of the panel divided $300 evenly meaning that if all three contestants were correct, they all won $100; if two of the contestants were correct, they both won $150; if only one contestant had the correct prediction, s/he won the full $300.

On the 1968 pilot, two contestants faced a panel of six celebrities. Each correct prediction scored $25 on the first question and $50 on the second question. The player with the most cash played a bonus round in which the winner of the game must correctly predict 5 out of 6 answers to win a new car. Each correct prediction earned the cash won in the front game.
