Family Dollar

Pam: *walking the chips aisle and discovers a dead alligator* What's a dead alligator doing here?

Rose The Family Dollar Employee: Word is, he got shipped in from the Great Dismal Swamp, in Chesapeake.

Pam: Why?

Rose The Family Employee: Not sure, Ma'am. Don't worry about him. He's dead. He can't bite you.

Pam: Okay. *gets some Cooler Ranch Doritos* I'll get some Sunkist grape soda. *walks to the cooler where the sodas are*

Other Employees: *noticing the dead gator*

Pam: *pays for her items, leaves Family Dollar, and gets back in her blue 1976 Lincoln Continental Coupe with a Virginia license plate, and drives home* That alligator better be gone, next time I shop there.
