Second endings are all the rage in Hollywood these days.
FINALE: The singing is over. A pathetic looking character walks
barefoot to center stage, he wears a plain, dull, and overly worn sock
on each hand, and an equally pathetic but matching sock-hat on his
head. They are an accumulated set, and a large portion of his amassed
fortune. The audience can easily see that finding and matching all
three, for him, is a crowning achievement. He lifts his left hand to
hide his lips in standard ventriloquial form, but the smell of the
putrid sock makes him retch. He regains his composure and attempts to
animate its mate. This time the sock comes alive. And this is what it
says to him: "You have ruined us, miserable puppeteer!"
Years of knee-jerk replies leave him able to pull from his limited
lexicon the following, meaningless reply, "Fjckwit!"
He falls to his knees, covering eyes and nostrils with both hands, and
retches harder. He looks up to the audience for a sign of compassion,
and finding none, blurts into his socks, "bUnn yip!"
CURTAIN.

Nah. Bertie arrived long after the high drama.


You think I read these?

I'm just wondering.
