START EPISODE #22
The next day
"Okay,
everyone here? Wheres Squill?"
"Hell
be along shortly. Hes still collecting
tennis balls."
"Its
becoming an obsession. Cant you put a
stop to it Tandar?"
"Ill
see...."
"Here
he is."
"Sorry
Im late. Lookit this. I found it on the
lawn near the lake. That makes seven so
far."
"Where
are you keeping them Squill?"
"Im
storing them in this hollow up here.
Itll hold lots. See."
"Hey
yeah, youve quite a collection. Hang
on! Whats with these two little hard
ones? You shouldve waited til
they got ripe."
"Theyre
golf balls you dill. Different game."
"Alright,
alright, can we get back to this meeting.
We..."
"Tandar
before we do anything else shouldnt we
analyse yesterdays stuff-up? See if we can
work out what went wrong."
"Waddya
mean what went wrong, Rosso? I thought it
went pretty well."
"Yeah,
I agree Zingo. It wasnt our fault there
werent any munchies."
"Pretty
well! Kalki duffed up one of the models, we
ruined the shoot, wrecked a camera, Tandar
nearly got captured, and we had to smash a
window to get out."
"S-o-o-,
whats your point? And anyway Rosso, we
didnt smash a window, the humans did
that."
"The
point, lamebrain, is that we were lucky to
get away. What would we have done if they had
captured
Tandar?"
"Held
an election I suppose."
"Well
thank you very much Zingo."
"He
didnt mean it quite like that Tandar.
What he meant to say is that wed have
tried to rescue you."
"Thats
right Tandar. Then wed have held an
election."
"Actually
Zingo has a point. We should have a second in
command. Yknow if something happened to
Tandar someone would have to take over."
"Well
who? We need a leader with brains,
imagination, daring and
resourcefulness."
"Why,
weve got by without one so far."
"Right
that does it. Im off. You lot elect
someone and let me know."
"Hey
Tandar...whoops, hes gone. Hope we
havent ruffled his feathers."
"I
think hes under too much pressure. The
sooner we elect a deputy the better."
"Well
whos it going to be?"
"I
nominate me."
"Kaegi
I dont think you can do that. Anyway
what makes you leadership material?"
"Because
Im an endangered species. Im
recognised by the World Wildlife Fund."
"Kaegi
youre not even recognised by your own
mother."
"I
resent that."
"Who
wouldnt?"
"Hang
on, how about Kalki? Hes
fearless."
"Mindless
more likely. Hed get us all
killed."
"Thats
not funny Zingo. Any way I dont want
the job. But if youre so smart, you
nominate someone then."
