    Didn't we have a sherriff at some point? Someone should be arresting those Teacuppers for not walking in the tunnels!!!! :eek:

    Right! Where's the Sheriff?! Everyone look for him, he must be found. I suppose missing persons is my job since I'm the Sheriff and all. By the way has anyone seen my sunglasses? everything looks kinda dark and hard to see.

    Aha!! So you're the Sheriff!! I thought we had someone around here who was supposed to be the sheriff :D
    Now, the people of Teacup City have been ordered to walk in specially constructed tunnels, so that they are out of the King's way when he's driving. Unfortunately, some of them seem to be having some problems doing that. Perhaps you could give them a hand? Seeing as how you are the Sheriff and all :rolleyes:
    Oh, and your sunglasses, I haven't seen them, you'll have to file a repport with Lost and Found :p

    Hmmmm...*examines the plans* Hmmm....this is going to come in handy! Excellent work, MaxSpock....not that I have any Idea what it could be...But part of it is a design for one of mirazone's generators! Excellent! I build one and use it to power my Multi-Dimensional Communicator! Mwehehehe!

    Umm... I'm not really qualified for that... ahh, well, I'll give it a go...

    *builds it Antagonist-style (lots of duct tape, discount components, etc.) and places inside a secret, undetectable wathcamacallit that lets Mirazone know whenever Antagonist uses it, and lets him hear the inter-dimensional messages from Antagonist's communicator*
    There! *sends coded mustache message informing Teacup High Command of what he has done*

    Mysterious silhouette- "Hey, good news! Looks like Antagoon found a way to communicate with us!
    Mysterious silhouette 2- "oh ya...he has been gone for quite some time, hasn't he? well, what did he say? Have his debts finally caught up to him?"
    Mysterious silhouette- "actually, he somehow stranded himself in another dimension..."
    Mysterious silhouette 2- "That's so typical of him...most people would just find an elaborate why to alter history so that they never got in debt, but noooo, he has to do things the hard way...wait, what did he say?"
    Mysterious silhouette- "Well...he asked me for a recipe using gorn meat...something involving a cooking contest...oh, but he did say that later, he wants to talk to the whole family. he has some brilliant plan he wants help on."
    Mysterious silhouette 2- alright, ill start a phone tree....he had better pay us this time...and this had better not end up like his scheme to become prince and embezzle royal funds...I mean, at least my schemes work!"

    Ok, I think I have an idea about that.

    *lays trails of self-replicating-jellybeans leading into the tunnels*

    There! No teacuppian can resist gobbling up jellybeans, and it'll take them right where they need to go. Those Tea Researchers sure are clever getting all that technology into a little bean and still make it taste like a marginally flavored blob of sugar.

    And Carrot cake....

    *opens walk-in cupboard/larder and brings out the carrot cake*

    Hmmm...but what size....

    *takes the plunge and cuts a large piece and puts it on a plate, and then puts cake back in cupboard/larder and closes the door*

    One cake and milk!

    *puts cake and milk in the serving lift, and pulls the ropes to make the lift go up to the King's throne room*

    Somebody left jellybeans everywhere! *the King has collected many of them in Bags to eat later*

    *The King goes into the castle and up to the throne room where he plops down to eat the Carrot Cake and drink the milk* :rolleyes:

    His Majesty King Trebort and Her Royal Highness Princess Teska would like to cordially invite you to a masquerade ball
    to celebrate the founding and one year anniversary of the prestigous Order of the Teacup.
    To be held on Friday, July 23, 2010.
    The ball will be accompanied by Tea and Sticky Buns in the gardens, and followed by a parade and fireworks.
    Formal attire is required.

    *sends for the page*
    Have the scribes make copies of this on the royal stationary, you know which ones, they have the image of the Teacup engraved on the front? Yes that's right. Have them sent out to all the citizens of Teacup Land.
