What happens to Optimism in the Grove of Carrots


(Egg falls from Sky)

Egg: "Ouch!"

Bunny and Wombat: "Gasp!"

Wombat: "Oh great, someone else has found the Grove...Just what we need..."

Bunny: "Be nice! It is only an baby!"

Egg: "What happened to me?"

Bunny: "You poor thing..."

Wombat: "Please, no sympathy in the Grove... I might vomit..."

(Loud thump as Platypus lands next to Bunny)

Platypus: "Hurray! I found you!"

Bunny: "Is this your egg Platypus?"

Platypus: "Well not really, it is only an advocado I painted Easter colors. I was upset I lost it and I ended up here!"

Wombat: "I'm going to do something uncalled for if you don't leave with that egg soon."

Platypus and Bunny: "Awww!"

Bunny: "Wombat isn't very optimistic."

Wombat: "neither are you!"

Bunny: "Hey! I can be whatever I want to be!"

Advocado: I think I have a crack."

Wombat: "..."

Bunny: "Resist the need to rant Wombat!"

Wombat: "Where did you find this talking advocado?"

Platypus: "In the tropics. I have family there."

Advocado: "Did you know there is a kingdom that I rule in the jungle?"

Bunny: "You are the leader of an entire kingdom?!"

Platypus: "Oh Dear! I forgot to mention that he was."

Wombat: "This is getting uncalled for."

Bunny: "Is it a king?"

Platypus: "We shall make it!"

Advocado: "I am king? That is so cool! Hurray for me!"

Bunny and Platypus: "Hurray for the king!"

Wombat: (sigh)

(Pulls out Magnum, fires, advocado explodes - pieces are everywhere)

(Bunny stumbles in shock... Then...When the sound of the blast subsides...)

Bunny: "What came over me? I thought that an advocado was a king!"

Wombat: "The Curse of the Advocado... It is an evil force all advocado's have."

Platypus: "THE KING IS DEAD! NO!" (Sobs hysterically)

Wombat: "unfortunately the most optimistic are the most vulnerable."

Bunny: "So what are we to do with all these advocado pieces?" (pulls some out of ears)

Wombat: "Well... It will make a nice change to carrots I guess."

Platypus: "The King... Sniff... the king... NO!!!"

(The Platypus runs off in tears)

Bunny: "Should I just skip the advocado and get the carrots?"

Wombat: "Yea. My urge to kill has been subdued for a while... No need to be known for eating my victims."

Bunny: "Wombats have urges to kill?"

Wombat: "And you question my loneliness..."

Bunny: "Am I the next victim?"

Wombat: "You were originally, but you got me a carrot."

Bunny: "Carrots help you subdue the urges?"

Wombat: "Yea.

Bunny: "Nice revolver by the way."

Wombat: "Its a S&W 22."

Wolf: "Nice."
