Episode 40: Part 2 of “Who Ate the Danish?”
Apparently the discussion about “Danish or Doughnuts” was over.
The moose felt that he, also, had to be heard.
Something had been rattling around
in his head; however, he could not
form it into concise thoughts.
Finally he bellowed out
“We need to form a group,
a secret society. We need
to do this for our own
protection.
If we say it is a ‘service organization’ maybe
we can even enhance our power.
We will need secret signals,
phrases and handshakes.”
Brad looked at the moose and asked
“What is that on your antlers?”
Only Brad had noticed the two pieces of clothing
stretched across the wide beams of the moose.
Once it had been called to their attention
everyone sat staring at the clothing.
There was a yellow tutu with an
attached T-top. It was bedecked
with chartreuse sequins.
The other piece was a
full length gown,
red in color and
black sequins
were sewn in
strategic
areas.
“Oh my” said the moose as he,
apparently embarrassed,
quickly reached up to
remove the two pieces
of clothing.
He was about to hide them behind him
when the Coquettish Round Queen
walked in the door.
“Oh there they are”
he said reaching for
the clothes.
“I hung them there last night to dry”
he lamely added.
Everyone was looking at the queen
and then shifted their gaze
to the moose.
“What?” asked the moose
(to everyone and no one)
as if he did not understand
what they were
thinking.
“I have never been so humiliated in my life”
screamed Lola. “I thought we had
a commitment” she said to the
queen as she stomped
out of the room.
