ASH: Ummm... Charky, I don't think Uncle Paul even *has* a cecum.

CHARKY: What?!!! No cecum? Small ears, pitiful tails, furless bodies, can't hop worth a flip, and NO CECUM? You're kiddin', right? Are humans really that far behind us evolutionally? How sad...

ASH: Yeah. Listen, Charky, I'm worried. How will Uncle Paul get his vitamins and minerals?

CHARKY: The poor guy will suffer from severe malnutrition. We've got to do *something*... but what? (foot thumping thoughtfully) I know, I've got it! Let's get to work and make him some Bunny Berry Tea!

ASH: Chark, you're a *genius*! We can do it - we can supplement his high "pellet" diet, restore his intestinal flora, dissolve his gastric trichobezoars (hairballs) - we can SAVE Uncle Paul!!! He will be forever grateful to us. Now where does Mom keep the blender?

CHARKY: There it is, on the bottom shelf in the kitchen. You hop up on the countertop, extend your tail over the side, squeeze hard, and aim for the pitcher below. I'll set the blender speed. Hmmm... grate, chop, mix,... puree! Yeah, Uncle Paul will like it smooth and frothy, fur sure. [Click. WHIRRRRRRRRR] Fire away, Ashy!

ASH: Here comes a nice gooey one. [SPLOOT] Yes, a direct hit! Get the lid on the blender *fast*, Charky!

CHARKY: I can't, I can't - the speed's too high! It's breaking up, it's breaking up! Cecal is flying everywhere! Run for your life!!!

LOWLY SO: Sounds like a freight train in the kitchen, dear. I'll go check on things... Hey, bunnies, what's goin' on in heeeerrre? [SPLAT] Yahhh!!! (hands clutching his eyes) My FACE, I can't see! (spinning around aimlessly, in agony)

CHARKY: Yo, Fudge Ripple Boy, where'd ja git them shades? From someplace where the sun doesn't shine? HAR-HAR.

ASH (hiding under the bed): Boo-hoo-hoo... Now we'll never be able to make Bunny Berry Tea and rescue poor Uncle Paul from his malnourished existence. He will surely "waste" away. SNIFF.

CHARKY: Yeah, but we've created a *killer* facial mask. Cretin-A. Sunblock factor eleventy-two. At least his skin will look more youthful. Nice tan, Dude! HAR-HAR.
