It's the dead of night and the streets seem deserted. Butsomeone is stealthily making their way towards the laundry.  A miniature GRAPPLING HOOK is fired up to a window ledge. A tiny figure, no more than eighteen inches high, shimmies upto Willy's and Y/n's window ledge, silhouetted in the moonlight. He slips through the bars, scans the room, and then creeps overto two jars of chocolates, still keeping to the shadows. CLICK! He steps on a floorboard which activates a switch. Suddenly the floorboard TWANGS UPWARD and the tiny figure isFLUNG ACROSS THE ROOM and into a funnel which deposits him ina JAR -- which closes as he lands, trapping him. Willy sits up, delighted as y/n wakes up with a yawn and rubbing her eyes. "Gotcha!" 

The little person is now stuck in the jar upset. "What the devil? Let me out of here!I demand to be released!" Willy ignores him and y/n is just surprised "Incredible! It can speak!" y/n giggles "Well of course I can speak. Now letme out of here or I shall shriek." Willy shakes his head as he gets up "Not til I take a good look at you." Willy lifts the jar onto his desk and switches on the light,revealing a small man with bright orange skin and green hair.He is, of course, an OOMPA LOOMPA. "Good evening." y/n gets off the bed and sits next to Willy. "So you're the funny little manwho's been following me." y/n shrugs "I think he's adorable or cute" The Oompa Loompa puffs out his chest indignantly. "Funny little man?! How dare you!I'll have you know I'm a perfectlyrespectable size for an OompaLoompa and I am not cute or adorable." Willy looks at y/n then at the oompa loompa. "An Oompa what now?" he ignores the question "In fact in Loompaland, I'm regardedas something of a whopper. Theycall me Lofty. So I'll thank younot to keep gawping at me likesomething unpleasant you found inyour handkerchief. I find ituncomfortable and frankly rude." y/n then spoke sincerely "Oh we are sorry" He looked up at her "You have nothing to apologize for this was not your fault miss, now you--" he pointed at Willy "Now let me out of here. You have noright to go around embottlinginnocent strangers." 

"Innocent? Hold on. You've beenstealing from me for years!" Willy said defensively "Well you started it!" Willy looked confused "Me?" y/n just stayed quiet during this interaction as she tried not to laugh a bit "You stole our cocoa beans!" y/n looked at Willy "Willy how could you steal from this adorable Oopma Loompa" she tried not to laugh a bit. for some reason tonight is full of laughter for her "What are you talking about?" he looks back at the Oompa Loompa "Do you mean to say you don't evenremember?!" Willy is now very confused "Remember what?!" y/n nodded also curious as to what "The day you destroyed my life." y/n looked at Willy with an 'Oooooo" facial reaction. "No, I don't remember that," he said a bit upset as he held y/n's hand. that caught her by surprise. "Well then, young man, allow me torefresh your memory, in the form ofa song so ruinously catchy it willcreep into your brain and neverleave." 

He blows a whistle and the OOMPA LOOMPA theme plays. "I don't like the sound of that." Willy said "Too late. I'm dancing now. Oncewe've started we can't stop." The Oompa Loompa starts doing a strange, hypnotic dance. y/n just sways with the little song and she hums along "Oompa Loompa doompety-doo,I've got a tragic tale for you.Oompa Loompa doompety-dee,If you are wise you'll listen to me."  

An island paradise. A little sailboat -- its mast snapped intwo -- is limping across the ocean towards it. "Dear Loompaland is both luscious and greenBut not conducive to growing the bean!" While his shipmates repair the boat, Willy picks cocoa beans. "My job was guarding what little we'd got.You came along and pinched the lot!" As dawn breaks, Willy leaves with his haul of cocoa beans. "Why didn't you say anything?" y/n said to him. The Oompa Loompa was asleep. "Well, perhaps I drifted off!" Two other Oompa Loompas appear over him shaking their heads. The Oompa Loompa is marched out to sea by the guards. "Oompa Loompa doompety-day,When I awoke, they sent me away.I'm disgraced, cast out in the coldTil I've paid my friends back a thousand fold!" Willy and y/n look in shock "A thousand fold?! You kidding me?" he nods "I repeat!... A thousand fold!!" 

"Look, Mr. Loompa, if you reallythink this is a reasonable penaltyfor taking three beans..." he then gets corrected "Four!" Willy sighs "...then I'm sure we can come to anunderstanding, but I can't justhand over my entire supply. I'vegot people counting on me." y/n then interrupts trying to defend Willy. "pus it's not his fault he didn't know people owned them and it's not his fault you fell asleep on the job" he nods "Hm. Alright. I tell you what. Youlet me out and we can discuss itlike gentlemen and lady." The two nod "Alright" Willy releases the Oompa Loompa. "Thank you. Now would you be so kindas to hand me that miniature fryingpan?" Willy turns and points to one of the pans "This one?" The Ooompa Loompa shakes his head "No no, the heavy one." y/n is now getting suspicious "Alright." he weighs it in his hand "Ooh that's quite a beast, isn't it?Now come a little closer. Closernow. Cozy on up." 

Willy does so -- and the Oompa Loompa WHANGS him in the head. "Aargh!" The Oompa Loompa STAMPS on Willy's fingers and kisses y/n's hand, then grabs the jars ofchocolate and hops up onto the window ledge. "Oompa Loompas do not negotiate!Good day, sir and miss" Willy looks upset "But--" y/n went to say something but the Oompa Loompa beats her to it "I said good day!" And with that, he's gone. "Are you okay Willy" he nods "Yeah I'm fine but that was the last batch there's no more." y/n sighs "Let's just get to bed we'll figure it out tomorrow." He nods as they both get in bed "Good night Willy." He smiles "Good night my dear sweet Chocoa" With that he turns off the light.
