Strip by: R. J. T.

{Ambrose (catfish), Holly (pike), and Delkin (gar) are fish in a stream. Delkin is telling a joke (in fish language, of course) while the others listen.}
SFX: **POP**
{A bubble of air surrounds Delkin, and he begins to float away while Holly and Ambrose look on in shock.}
SFX: **SPLASH**
{Delkin breaks the surface of the water in front of an egret.}
{Delkin nervously tells the egret the same joke.}
Egret: Hahaha!!
SFX: **SPLASH**
{Delkin's tail is just visible in the egret's mouth.}
