And right over there is a narrator muter! I wonder what that does?
[The inventor turns a dial and the narrator's voice fades]
Wait! Hold on! No! Stop turning the dial, please! I can't...
Great meeting you, GRRRUMPH!
GAGuy-Am-I
My name is Guy.
Huh. That's a weird name.
GGuy
Ohhhhh.... STUPID INVENTION! STUPID GUY! I! GIVE! UP! (Later) Stupid bus, stupid town, stupid sidewalk... stupid hat.
So, what'd you fail at?
[Guy growls]
GGuy
[gritting his teeth] Would you please just leave me alone?
[to Guy] I am Sam. Sam-I-Am, of the Glurfsburg I-Ams. Perhaps you've heard of us. What's your handle, partner? [Guy grunts] Grumph! Lovely name. How do you spell that? Is that one "rumph" or two?
DDonna
So, Sam, I imagine you'll be having the ushe?
[smiles] If you insist.
DDonna
[to the diner cook] Green eggs and ham!
DCDiner Cook
Coming up!
GGuy
Yuck!
[He goes back to reading the newspaper. Sam knocks on the paper like a door to get his attention]
[gasps softly] You don't like green eggs and ham?
GGuy
[coldly] No, I do not like them, Sam I-Am. I do not like green eggs and ham.
Understood. Question asked and answered. No further queries necessary. [clicks tongue thoughtfully] Have you ever tried them before?
GGuy
[sighs] No.
Well, how can you be so sure you don't like 'em if you've never actually eaten 'em?
GGuy
Well, I've never eaten Walvark droppings, but I'm pretty certain I wouldn't enjoy those either.
But green eggs and ham are the most delicious-est, nutritious-est, greenest-est thing in the world, and, P.S., they are especially good here.
GGuy
[annoyed] That's fantastic, but I don't want them. Here or otherwise.
Tell you what. [to Donna] Make that two orders, Donna, on me.
GGuy
[also to Donna, frustrated] No, just oat mush, and a spoon!
Sad Man Special. [sucks teeth] Suit yourself.
It's getting late. I should probably be heading home anyway. Got a bunch of friends there waiting for me. Gonna be a real hoot. Possibly a double hoot. [chuckles] I should give you my address in case you and the kitchen staff feel like coming by.
DDonna
I still have it, Sam. From the last time you invited us?
[She gives Sam a warm smile. Sam, touched, returns a big beaming smile]
DDonna
And the six times before that.
[Sam looks away, slightly embarrassed]
Oh, yeah. Of course. [for a split second he looks downhearted, but then he flashes Donna another friendly smile] Of course!
[Sam walks sadly to the door]
Night Donna!
DDonna
Goodnight, Sam.
Oh, dear. I’m not gonna say, “I told you so”, because I’ve written it down. [holds up a “I told you so” card]
Oh, just the thought of that awful device gives me the fizzles. I wouldn’t let my daughter go anywhere near it. [sighs] E.B. is very fragile.
So, who’s excited about our big business trip?
EElenabeth (E.B.)
Me. I am. Definitely. [hides the fishing pole] But... counterproposal, maybe I could just stay here.
But I thought you were looking forward to seeing Meepville.
You know, I’m just worried about the big city, where every step is a roll of the dice. Maybe I’d be safer here in boring Glurfsburg where nothing ever happens.
Cheese-stuffed bamboo? E.B., this creature is not a pet. It’s terror on four feet!
Chickeraffes walk on two feet, Mom.
Of course. So they can use the other two to mash their prey into a fine paste. You are definitely coming with me to Meepville, young lady. And yes, the big city can be dangerous. Which is why we have these! [takes out the friendship bracelets] They’re Friendship Bracelets! [E.B. struggles to remove the bracelet and Michellee activates the magnetic pulse of the other]
FBFriendship Bracelets
Genu-ine Friend-ship!
Fun! Right? [E.B. groans as Michellee drags her] This way, we can stick together and be safe always, like friends.
