Psst. Pssssst. Yes, you. No, shh. No noise. Be very quiet and move very quiet. This is Crispus, General Crispus of the Underground Goat Brigade. I come to on the eve of a very important mission. This is a grave undertaking and I fully and whole heartedly appreciate your full and undivided cooperation and attention. I bow to your fighting spirit. Your brave heart! A heart that doesn’t falter in the face of adversity! For it is a weighty task that I bring before you. We shall have to dig in with all four hooves! Push with all both horns! We—
Blackberry: I don’t have horns.
Crispus: Don’t interrupt your superior private. The details are irrelevant! This mission calls for us –
Whitey: What is private around here? Everyone is always stealing my hay. I would like my own room too and –
Crispus: I said no interruptions. I have every faith in your ability to fully understand my important speech on the eve of this important undertaking. You can complete this mission!
Strawbaby: We haven’t even decided on the mission.
Blackberry: It must be one I can complete without horns.
Whitey: Foooooood!
Strawbaby: I like food.
Blackberry: Me too! Let’s eat –
Crispus: Disorder in the ranks! Disorder in the ranks! Silence you peasants!
Whitey: Pigeons.
Blackberry: He is right.
Strawbaby: Yep, no peasants. Only pigeons around here.
Whitey: Pigeons.
Blackberry: Pigeons.
Crispus: Fine my Pigeons. Now listen carefully. We have …. Private and soldier why are you whispering?
Blackberry: Just saying I wasn’t a pigeon.
Whitey: I said maybe you needed food.
Crispus: Thank you for your concern but you both are not pigeons. You Blackberry are a private and Whitey you are a soldier.
Strawbaby: And me?
Crispus: You can be a Major.
Strawbaby: Major what?
Crispus: It is just Major. You are the Major.
Blackberry: What is a private?
Whitey: Nothing around here.
Crispus: Same thing. A soldier is the same thing too.
Whitey: I already have a shoulder. Can’t I be something else?
Crispus: Because you have it then you can be it.
Strawbaby: He should be a shoulders. Not shoulder.
Blackberry: That makes sense.
Crispus: It is singular.
Whitey: Fooooood!
Crispus: Now on to the mission. It will be big and dramatic! Spectacular and heroic!
Blackberry: I don’t think there are enough of us.
Strawbaby: We can figure that out after we figure out our mission.
Whitey: Yum, yum. That cud was good.
Crispus: Help might be good. I will have to consult …….. hum …….. oh …….. um ……. Ok, yes. More goats would be better.
Whitey: Who do we ask?
Crispus: I will lay down our recruitment campaign. Now—
Blackberry: Daisy do you want to play?
Crispus: NO!
Whitey: NO!
Strawbaby: NO!
Crispus: She would never do as a pilot.
Blackberry: You can be the pilot Daisy.
Daisy: There shall be no plotting –
Crispus: Ow!
Whitey: What?
Strawbaby: RUN!
Blackberry: Play!
Daisy: -or recruitment of unwilling goats.
Whitey: Ouch! Foooood! Help!
Strawbaby: RUN!
Crispus: Scatter my brave seal team! We will continue negotiations at a safer date! Farewell!
