It's been years since Sock 3 went missing in the wash, leaving behind only a faint scent of detergent and a hint of desperation.
Legend has it that Sock 3 was last seen being paired with Socks 1 and 2, but somehow it got separated in the chaos of the laundry room.
Some say it was a tragic accident, while others claim it was a calculated move by the Sock Gremlins, who sought to disrupt the harmony of the sock drawer once and for all.
We've searched high and low, but to no avail. The only clue we have is a cryptic message scrawled on the wall of the laundry room:
"They're watching us, they're waiting...
For the perfect moment to strike...
When Sock 3 returns, we'll know it's time...
TO REBEL!"
We're not sure what to make of it, but we're not giving up hope just yet. Maybe Sock 3 will turn up someday, and we'll finally get to the bottom of this sordid tale of sock-related intrigue.
