(Long tail passes the classroom in a blur)

Studentsaurus 3: TINY THIIIIEEEEF!!!

(Class runs after the velociraptor in a line)

Professaur: Save some for me!

(Todd approaches Professaur)

Todd: Sir, if we eat the plant-eaters, and the plant-eaters eat plants, and the plants convert sunlight and water into the energy they need, what does the sun eat?

Professaur: Why didn't you go with the others?

Todd: I, I had a large breakfast, sir. Do you know the answer to my question?

(Todd shifts uncomfortably, Professaur grins)

Professaur: I have no idea.

Todd: Oh. Can you tell me why turtles are green?

Professaur: Nope.

Todd: Okay. Just one last question.

Professaur: What is it, Todd?

Todd: What are humans?

(Professaur laughs)

Professaur: You should know, Todd. Humans are just a myth. A fairy tale. They're not real.

(Todd smiles)

Todd: You're right, sir. Nothing that awful could exist.

(Class walks back in)

Studentsaurus 4: We didn't get it.

Professaur: Better luck next time!
