The hot, stuffy world of inside Cathy's shoe is getting worse by the second which each step she takes. Your mother enters the locker room, her titanic sock-clad foot smashing into you over and over. All you can make out through the walls of the mule is gossip between the two women and it's driving you mad.
Suddenly, as if Cathy could hear your anger and is punishing you, your prison tightens up even more as her toes scrunch you up. You scream out, thinking you're about to be crushed, but that causes the cotton from the sock to be forced into your open mouth. Cathy's toes settle once again around you, leaving you to gag on the giant strand of fabric.
The gossip continues and then suddenly the prison begins to shake violently, and light filters in! Your mother is finally taking her shoe off. You are dragged along on the bottom of the leather and then begin to lift up with her foot. Scared of falling, you grasp onto the bottom of her sock and look around as you rise up, seeing the locker room and your mother's friend Karen. You try to scream and shot out for help, but you lose your hold and begin plummeting from the giant foot to the floor below.
You cringe, expecting to be splattered on tile floor but instead hit a firm yet yielding navy blue surface. The ground beneath you is particularly darkened with bits of dirt (the size of pebbles to you) here and there. As you struggle to get to your feet you look to the right of you and notice the same sort of surface, with a massive strap rising from...
a flip flop! You've landed on your mother's flip flop! It takes some time to register, but you remember seeing these before. The faint odor of Cathy's feet hang over these shoes. You stand up, seeing Karen's gigantic feet in the distance, sliding out of their flats and onto the tile floor with a heavy thud that knocks you on your butt. You notice Karen's feet are well kept, with painted toenails.
Looking up, you see your mom's face staring down at you and you begin jumping up and down and shouting.
"Mom! Mom! I'm down here! Help!!"
"MY YOU ARE TREATING YOURSELF! PLANNING ON ATTRACTING SOME YOUNG THING?"
Cathy's voice booms down like thunder and you realize that she's not looking at you at all, she's admiring her friend's pedicure. After Karen's reply you see your mom's shirt and bra fall down to the ground with a loud whump. You look up but immediately regret; you don't want to see her topless!
You get up and get ready to find a place to hide when a shadow falls over you. You were so distracted that you forgot you were on a shoe. Cathy's bare foot slides onto the massive sandal and you get slammed between her big and second toes, crushed into the separator that the strap is attached to.
The two women continue their conversation, oblivious to the human suffering beneath them as they head out to the pool. Suddenly Karen booms up from above "I FORGOT MY TOWEL" and goes back. Cathy however keeps going and before you know it you're at the edge of the pool.
Between the strap separator and her big toe, you wince and struggle to move or do anything to get out of this predicament. But your mom seems to dictate your fate at this point and as she kicks off her flip flops you remain stuck to the side of her toe. You look down in horror as the water approaches you swiftly and then suddenly you are plunged under.
Cathy simply dipped her foot in the water to see how cold it was, but to you it was like you were submerged in the ocean. The giant foot is pulled out from the depths, and you were lucky you weren't washed away. The chlorine assaults your senses and you begin screaming again to your mom, desperate to get her attention. Cathy simply lifts her foot over the pool, getting ready to get in...
