Why you asking me that? I thought as they spoke together.
Was she shot?
"Yes, she was!"
"No she wasn't!"
How did she die then?
"A gorilla knocked her out!"
But wasn't the gorilla dead first?
"The volcano must have did then?"
But aren't you experts? Why are you asking instead of telling me why she died.
"No, we are mad scientists"
"No, it's psychologist. Clearly psychological."
Okay, then why are you jackasses here? This is my mum.
"Wait, she's your mum?"
"She is a little too old to be your mum, eh?"
Whaaaaat?
"That's a long watt!"
"What kind of bulb do you use?"
"No! It's what kind of bulb are you?!"
I don't know. What kind of bulb are you?
"I just asked you that."
What kind of idiots are you?
"The best you can ever find."
"Special ones?"
So can I please have my mother now?
"Isn't she dead?"
Yes.
"Do you want her fried and crispy?"
"Or do you want her burnt and smoked?"
Ummmm...
"What flavour is that?"
"How does that taste?"
I don't know.
"So should we try it?"
"Indeed we should."
No! I. Just. Want. My. Mother.
"Tender or medium?"
"Or whole?"
Just give me my mother already!
"Alright!"
"Alright!"
Suddenly the dead man on the table who had previously driven her to the hospital in the ambulance, got up and faced them. "Someone give him his mother already!" Then he falls back to sleep.
Aaahhh! It's alive.
"Oh shush!"
"He lives!"
Ahh!
"It's a man!"
"Man who?"
That's not my mother!
"Of course not, he has a penis."
"Did your mother have a penis?"
Mum?
"Did she?"
"I doh know. Did she?"
Where is she?
"I don't know, I think she did."
Did what?
"Had a penis."
Just give me my mama already.
"Okay."
"Here she is."
What is this?
"A lamp."
"Yes. It is indeed a lamp."
But I want my mother.
"Yes. This is your mother."
"She's molded into a lamp."
Why...why would you turn her into a lamp?
"So she could be useful."
"Indeed. Useful."
For what?
"To shine."
"Shine bright."
Why?!
"Because."
"She is a lamp."
