(Pumpkin and Je Sus stand in the garage looking for transportation to use.)
Je Sus: My family took the only car... what can we use to get to the mall?
Pumpkin: How about that bike?
Je Sus: That's my step-father's and it also reeks of his awful smelling cologne.
Pumpkin: That doesn't matter. We can use it to get to the mall.
Je Sus: But... that would be too much work!
Pumpkin: What? You've done nothing but work since your mother won custody of you! You can stand to do a little more!
Je Sus: Well I've never had to work my legs much, just my hands! I can't pedal that bike to the mall! It's too hard!
Pumpkin: How lazy are you?
Je Sus: Speak for yourself, cat. I bet you've never exercised in your life! Besides, how would we both ride the bike? I need you to guide me to the prince in the mall, remember?
Pumpkin: That's true... so what can we do?
Je Sus: I know! How about I use that rope over there to harness you to the bike? You can pull me to the mall!
Pumpkin: Are you insane!? If I tried to pull that bike, it would run me over! Think of something else.
Je Sus: We do have a broken up wheelbarrow in the back shed... I could harness you to that! It won't roll over you.
Pumpkin: I can't pull you twenty miles to the mall in a wheelbarrow!
Je Sus: You got a better idea?
Pumpkin: Well...
Je Sus: I didn't think so. Come here so I can tie you to the wheelbarrow.
(Je Sus grabs a rope and ties it around Pumpkin's neck, then pulls a ratty old wheelbarrow out of the back shed and fastens the other end of the rope to its handles.)
Je Sus: (Climbing into the wheelbarrow) Giddyup, Pumpkin!
(Pumpkin heaves against the rope as hard as he can, and the wheelbarrow begins to slowly move forward.)
Pumpkin: (Panting) I think you would get there faster if you walked!
Je Sus: Nonsense! You're a magic cat! Surely you can pull me faster than this! Speaking of which, how come you can't just conjure us a car, or a plane or something? You conjured me a dress and slippers, after all!
Pumpkin: Magic doesn't work like that! I can only summon certain things.
Je Sus: Whatever. Can you at least use your magic to go faster?
Pumpkin: I can try...
(Pumpkin waves his tail, and he suddenly puts on a burst of speed and rushes down the driveway and into the street, pulling Je Sus and the wheelbarrow behind him. Cars swerve to avoid them, and pedestrians stop and stare at the sight of a fat orange cat pulling a girl with beautiful clothes down the street in a wheelbarrow.)
Pedestrian #1: Well, that's something you don't see every day.
Pedestrian #2: Tell me about it. I've never seen anything like that before. Well except for what happened to John on taco Tuesday.
(The wheelbarrow careens around the street, bumping around.)
Je Sus: This - (bump) ride - (bump) is too - (bump) - BUMPY!
