Three hours had passed since the arrival of the Lions on Counterfeit, and the museum was open. However, due to their conversation with the strange man, they were much too excited to appreciate any art. Even Grey, (always loving to appear sophisticated while staring at paintings, making comments like " Hmm.." and "I wonder what she was going through while painting this.") felt museum-going sounded boring. This would look good on a résumé. Grey Lion, crime-buster! Poptropicans had come far and wide to see the original Scream.The Lions waited through the long line to get in. Speedy chewed on some Popgum® to pass the time. Of course he would have to spit it out before going inside, but he felt it was more thrilling than being jostled around by people trying to get in. Speedy snapped his gum repeatedly, until Smart glared at him. The wait was incredibly dull, however it finally came to an end. " Trois billetes, S'il vous plait." Smart said, handing the guard his credits. "Merci. Amusez-vous au musee!" If only, I thought to myself, snapping out of my memories. I had known what I was getting into. The Lion brothers had not been inside for three minutes before a tall, overweight man ran toawards the entryway shooing people out as he went. "DEHORS! DEHORS! VANDALES! HOOLGANS!" he shrieked. And then, regaining his composure, walked over to the intercom station and said in a loud voice into the microphone, "The Museum Fantastique is now closed. Please exit the building, if you'd be so kind." The crowd let out a collective groan. This wouldn't do at all!
