Without really thinking about it, you blurt out "I wish my Great Uncle Caleb was back to life. It sure would be nice to have him back around."
Limahl says "Done!" and snaps his fingers, twirling around in a wash of magical sparkles. "Okay, that's it. Uh, I think. If it worked. That's the first time I've ever done that, you know. See ya!" And with that, the band shimmers and fades away, leaving you, Falcor, and quite a mess in the diner.
Falcor agrees to fly you to your uncle's mansion, where you find him quite alive and in very good spirits. In fact, he manages to live for many more years, even outliving you, somehow, against all odds, to a ripe old age of 154, setting the new world record for oldest person.
Unfortunately, since his death was the entire driving force of this narrative, that brings our story to a rather dull, unclimactic ending. Maybe you could, I don't know, take a class on story structure or something? I'm sure people will just be lining up around the block to see the movie version of your life, "Nothing Happens: A True Story".

I think it was a musical. My family watches it every year.
