Dad and I were riding down an elevator at some casino, after winning some money. We were in the elevator with some other man in a business suit, and I was carrying my winnings in a cash drawer. As we were going down, the elevator quickly dropped a few floors - fast than it was supposed to, yet it slowed before we got to the ground floor.
We exited the elevator and made our way to this small K-mart-like store that was in the lobby of the hotel. Apparently I was supposed to work there, which is why I had my money in the cash drawer. Since I was gambling, I also had the little "lucky alien" that one of my friends gave me in that same drawer.
When I got to the counter, I tossed my drawer up onto it - but I threw it too hard and it smashed to the floor behind the counter. I figured that all of my money would be spilled out onto the floor, but only a few bills had actually come loose. However, my alien had disappeared, probably landing underneath the racks of stuff in one of the rows behind the counter.
The girl there told me to go look under the shelves, and when I did I started finding all kinds of forgotten little toys in the dirt and dust under the shelves. I started at the far end and worked my way backwards... snatching up all these toys as I went. I found my alien, but I also found other aliens that looked similar to mine. I also found a squishy brain toy, and a sticky/gummy snail toy. The shell was made of that sticky "wall waker" type material, and the body was made of the slimey "ooze" stuff that you can get out of those quarter machines.
As I was sticking all this stuff in my pockets, I was worried that they were going to catch me and I'd be in trouble for trying to steal these toys - but since they had obviously been underneath these shelves for a long time, I didn't want to leave them there.
