It was a lovely sunny day on Splash Mountain.
A perfect day, in fact, to install a climbing wall just outside the fifty-foot drop.
Chad Stuart, Patty Duke, Burt Ward, and Jeremy Clyde were announcing its debut to the rest of the critters.
"Splash Mountain is proud to debut our new climbing wall" said Chad.
"We thought this would be fun, since so many critters have tried to climb the razor wire fence surrounding Frontierland" said Jeremy.
Brer Bear then came by wrapped entirely in toilet paper.
"Brer Bear. Did Brer Raccoon TP you again?" said Patty.
"Nope" said Brer Bear. "I dresses like diss wen ma fave'rit graphic novel cums out. I's King Tut Jones de mummy detective."
"That sounds fun" said Burt. "Maybe I can read it when you're done. I'm a comic book nerd too."
"I ain't no comic book nerd, Brer Burt. I's a graphic novel nerd" said Brer Bear. "And neither of us'll be readin' de new edishin cuz Uncle Remus won't lemme go ter town ter buy one."
"Yeah, it's a rule" said Patty. "No critters are allowed in town."
"Even humans can't go. That's rubbish, I say! We're responsible adults" said Jeremy.
"Brer Bear, you can't get your comic..." Chad began.
"Graphic novel!" Brer Bear corrected him.
"But perhaps you'll enjoy the climbing wall" said Chad.
"I read about danja. I don't do danja" said Brer Bear.
Then he left.
"Alright?" said Burt. "How about you, Brer Fox?"
"Why not? I's a good climba. I neva fall" said Brer Fox.
"Jolly good" said Jeremy. "And to make doubly sure you don't fall, Chad will be holding your safety rope."
Brer Fox did some climbing and got a little more than half way up.
But then Chad needed to loosen his belt and absentmindedly let go of the rope.
Brer Fox tumbled down, but Patty caught him in her strong arms.
"Thanks a million, Sis Patty. Can I pay ya back?" said Brer Fox.
"Aw, you don't need to" said Patty.
"Brer Fox, I'm so sorry" said Chad. "But my trousers were squeezing my belly. Do you have any idea how uncomfortable this is?"
"I do" said Burt. "My Robin tights could strangle me to death."
"So that's why you call them your python pants" said Jeremy.
