Comic Transcript

Interior of the Ambassador to Syria's office. The Doormouse is standing and gesturing at the soup salesman standing next to him. The soup salesman waves and makes a thumbs-up gesture.

Doormouse: Gentlemen, allow me to present...

Sound FX: KNOCK KNOCK

Doormouse: sigh

Doormouse: What now?

Cut to a shot of the exterior, just outside the door. There is now a long line of soup salesmen, alternating top hats and bowler hats. In the middle of the line there is a man standing with his hat at about the same level as the soup salesmen, wearing a Panama hat with an upturned brim, jacket, vest, tie, and carrying what appears to be a walking stick or umbrella with a large question mark at the tip. One eyebrow is raised. One thing we can be certain of - he's not infringing on any existing intellectual property. No sir.

Totally Non-Infringing Character: Strange, soup queues aren't due for another 122 years...

Another totally non-infringing character (offscreen): Professor! You said you were taking me to the circus!

First Totally Non-Infringing Character: In a moment!

The line of soup salesmen continues. Further towards the back we see that one of the bowler-wearing salesmen appears to be supported by a stick.

Cut to close-up of Brainley, wearing a harness with a stick attached to it.

Brainley: Doot de doo.
