by Bill Schott
  Cast
Ned
Aesop
Ged
The scene continues in Ned's dream. He is still inside of a cavernous whale, standing next to Aesop and Ned's clone Ged (general equivalency dude), who is dressed in a baggy Santa Claus suit with a droopy, fake beard.
Ned: Whew! So glad ta be back here. I was on a street corner in my under britches.
Ged: (noticing he has a Santa suit on) Oh my. I'm either hallucinating on illecit drugs or in Ned's dream.
Aesop: This could also be a fable about a fool and a whale.
Ned: That'd make havin' this here whale purdy plenteFISHel.
Ged: Quite! (then crossing his arms and cupping his chin with his right hand) Now if you could only locate a fool.
Aesop: Perhaps it could be you, young man.
Ned: Yeah! Ged'll make a cool fool.
Ged: There may be a better choice.
Aesop: I believe we will put a pin in that and try the tortoise and the hare.
Ned: A tortoise wit hair?
Aesop: That would be even more marvelous.
Ged: Your reasoning seems to mirror that of Ned.
Ned: He's a smart'n alright. He agreed ta let me change the spellin' on his name ta E-A-S-U-P.
Aesop: It seems that it is A before E except after Z.
Ged: What?
Ned: Dun git decited, dude. The Z is silent -- and imbisible.
Aesop: Who will be the tortoise and who -- the hair?
Ged: (now a tall mop of head to toe hair) It would be grand if you could wake up now, Ned.
Ned: (now a big cake) Dun I look sweet?
Aesop: (looks like a big cake too) We are two tortes
Ged: Tortes-R-Us?
Ned: Ease Up says we're gonna win this race.
Aesop: The moral of the story is --
Ged: Slow and steady wins the race?
Ned: Life's a cake walk.
Ged: Life is a cake walk? That is genius, Ned. You are brilliant. The world is flat. The moon is made of green cheese.
Ned: You need a haircut, dude.
