We open "DARE DEVIL O'DARE" where we see Ma O'Dare setting the dining table for supper as Pa O'Dare is sitting there wearing a set of spectacles and reading his evening newspaper as they are now looking up at the ceiling with looks of bewilderment on their faces as we are now hearing a bunch of ruckus taking place from Elmer O'Dare's bedroom quarters.
PA O'DARE to MA O'DARE: (As he is sitting there holding his evening newspaper and is looking at her with a dazed look on his face as he is saying to her in a mad tone of voice): "What's that Half-Wit up to now?"
MA O'DARE to PA O'DARE: (As she is now placing some dishware on the table and is looking at him with a look of worry as she is saying to him in a carrying tone of voice): "I don't know, but ever since that circus played here, Elmer hasn't been the same."
We are now in Elmer O'Dare's bedroom quarters where we see Elmer with a mischievous smile on his face and his arms spread wide in the aire dressed in knee length black stockings, a wide brimed hat and a ladies white tu-tu style of a dress as he is now completing a balancing act on top of a tiny toy rocking horse. Elmer has now jumped off of the toy rocking horse with a huge smile on his face as he has now clicked his heels together and is now running slightly loosing his balance in a partial circle around his room doing a skip style of a dance as he is smiling happily and is saying "Weeeee" as he is now once again approaching the tiny toy rocking horse and this time he has now tripped over it and has knocked the horse over and has landed flat on his back on his floor.
We are now back in the dining room quarters where Ma O'Dare is completing setting the supper table and is looking at Pa O'Dare with a worried look on her face as Pa O'Dare is still holding his evening newspaper and with his spectacles on is looking back at Ma O'Dare with a perplexed look on his face.
MA O'DARE to PA O'DARE: (As she is saying to him in a worried tone of voice and a worried look on her face): "You oughta talk to him Pa, I'm worried!"
PA O'DARE to MA O'DARE: (As he is looking at her with a hurtful look on his face as he is saying to her in a worried tone of voice): "So am I Ma, his school teacher told me he played hookey yesterday!"
MA O' DARE to PA O'DARE: (As she ins now placing some nourishment on the table and is looking at him with a scared look on her face as she is now saying to him in a worried tone of voice): "That's strange, Elmer has not done that in sixteen years!"
PA O'DARE to MA O'DARE: (As he has now placed down his evening newspaper and has placed his spectacles down on the table as he now has a worried look on his face and is stating to her in a worried tone of voice): "I guess that last spanking I gave him didn't make a impression!"
All the while that Ma and Pa O'Dare were at the dining table talking about Elmer we heard coming from Elmer's bedroom quarters alot of of loud ruckus as Elmer was practicing alot of different circus related acrobatic acts.
PA O'DARE to ELMER: (As Pa O'Dare is now pushing his chair back from the table and is removing his belt from his trousers and is placing it on the table as he is now yelling to Elmer throught the ceiling in a mean tone of voice): "Elmer, if you don't come down to supper right away, I'll spank you with an inch of your life!"
As Pa O'Dare was yelling at Elmer through the ceiling we now see Elmer standing on top of the toy rocking horse still dressed in his tu-tu, black knee length stockings and his hat as he is now supporting a worried look on his face as he is now taking off his tu-tu and is putting on a suit and tie in a state of worry.
ELMER O'DARE to PA O'DARE: (As Elmer is shouting at him in a worried voice through the ceiling): "Aaaah, all right Pa, I'll be right down!"
We now see Elmer waltzing into the dining room quarters with a sheepish look on his face as he is now trying to fold his arms as he is now twirling them six times in circles hard to cross them as he has now waved his hands and has looked at them with a dumbfounded look on his face as he is now placing them on the top of his hat.
PA O'DARE to ELMER O'DARE: (As Pa O'Dare is sitting in his chair with a really evil look on his face as he is shouting at Elmer with a low and wicked tone of voice): "Your School Marm told me you played hookey yesterday, do you know what that means?"
As Elmer was getting reprimanded by Pa he was standing there holding his hands with a really hurtful look on his face as he has nodded his head in agreement. Elmer has now twirled around and has gotten down on his kness and has bent over with a really hurtful look on his face with his keester pointing at Pa.
PA O'DARE to ELMER O'DARE: (As he is now still in his chair and is yelling at Elmer in a mean tone of voice): "Where are your manners, take off your hat before you get spanked."
We now see Elmer slowly removing his hat with a really hurtful look on his face as Pa now has his belt in his hand and an evil look on his face as he is now commencing to whip Elmer on the keester with it.
MA O'DARE to PA O'DARE: (As she is now putting up her hand in the stop position as she is shouting at him and in interupting him at spanking Elmer): "Pa!"
PA O'DARE to MA O'DARE: (As he is now lowering his belt and is looking at her with a worried look on his face as he is saying to her in a carrying tone of voice): "What's the matter?"
MA O'DARE to PA O'DARE: (As she is looking at him with a mad look on her face as she is saying to him in a mad tone of voice): "That's the new belt that Aunt Sophie gave you for Christmas!"
PA O'DARE to MA O'DARE: (As he now has a look of bewilderment on his face as he is saying to her in an apologetic tone of voice as he is now placing his belt down on the dining table): "So it is, I forgot all about it!"
Ma and Pa O'Dare are now sitting at the dining table with really hurtful looks on their faces as Elmer is still on his knees with his keester pointed at Pa as Pa now whacks his keester hard with his hand and is now yelling 'Oooowh, oooowh, oooowh, oooowh,' in pain from whacking Elmer. As he is now rubbing his sore hand with his other hand and has a painful look on his face.
We now see Pa O'Dare picking up a cooking skillet that Elmer has made with Elmer's hand imprint on the bottom of it as Pa now flinches and tosses the skillet across the living room quarters as he now pushes Elmer and sends Elmer flying flat on his stomach on the floor.
PA O'DARE to ELMER O'DARE: (As Elmer is laying on the floor with a hurtful look on his face as he is now in the process of standing up as Pa is standing there with a hurtful look on his face as he is now using a wicked tone of voice rifling very mean and hurtful insults to poor Elmer): "You idiot, you knumbskull, you haven't got any brains and you will never have any brains and that goes for your father too!"
We now see Elmer standing there with a look of mischief on his face as he is laughing at his father with a low mischievous voice as he is now brushing his fingers in the sign of 'shame, shame on you'.
PA O'DARE to ELMER O'DARE: (As Pa is looking at Elmer with a mean look on his face as he is pointing a finger in the direction of Elmer's bedroom quarters and is yelling at him in a really mean and hurtful tone of voice): "Making fun of your father, ehy? Well, just for that you'll go to bed with out your supper, go on, get out of here, get, get!"
We now see Elmer with his head hanging low and a look of hurt on his face as he is now slowly and hurtfully slue footing it off to his bedroom quarters. Elmer has now done a skip as he is picking up his step as he is swaying from side to side and has raised his arms in a state of 'oh well, I don't care'.
Elmer is now on the first step of the stairwell to his bedroom quarters as he is now patting the stairwell bannister railing as he is looking at Pa with a hurtful but yet apologetic look on his face as Pa is now charging after him stomping his foot in anger like a deranged bull as Elmer now is high tailing it at full speed up the stairwell to his bedroom quarters.
Elmer is now in his bedroom quarters as he has rubbed his hands on his suit jacket and is now opening the top drawer of his Bureau with a really sad and hurtful look on his face. We now see inside of the top bureau drawer memories from when he was an infant. Several different stuffed animals. He is now crying hard as he has now taken his first pair of shoes from the bureau drawer as he has given them a hug and then kissed them and has placed them into his left suit jacket pocket. He also has taken out a diaper and has made a hand motion to support a tiny sized person as he now is crying deeply and has blown his nose on the diaper and has kissed it and placed it back in the bureau drawer and has now closed it.
He now notices sitting on a table next to his bureau a rocket shaped rattle as he is now picking it up and is shaking it as he is still crying and he is now looking at it with a sad look on his face and is slightly remembering his infant days with it as he is now placing it into his right suit jacket pocket. Elmer has now twirled around as he is now tearing a note off of a note tablet. Elmer has now placed the note on his night stand table that reads as follows:
Dear Ma:
I kant get along
with yure husband
eny longer.
YURE LUNUAS SON:
Elmer
Elmer is now tearing off of his walls wall covering of circus people as we now see a cupboard style of a door that leads to an outside window. Elmer is now picking up a piece of rope with rocks attached to it as he is now placing it on a window seat. He has now picked up a 'Hobo's Pack,' {A small bundle of his belongings tied to a stick}. Elmer has now slung it over his shoulder and has now walked over to the window and has tossed it out and it goes crashing down into a flower bedding below as he has flinched a tad as he is watching it go crashing into the flower bedding. He is now tieing the rope of rocks around his left ankle. He is now giving his bedroom quarters one last and final sade farewell look as he has now tossed the rope of rocks out of the window as the rocks are now getting closer to the ground it is becoming more and more taunt around his ankle as he is now being pulled out of the window backwards and he is yelling in pain as he is falling fastly to the ground, 'aaaah-whoa, aaaah-whoa, aaaah-whoa, aaaah-whoa'.
We are now at the Circus where we see a wagon that reads as follows:
GILBERTÉ
CIRCUS
We now see two gentlemen standing in front of the circus wagon one is dressed in an 1800's style sheriff suit with a long style of a bow tie, plaid vest and a cowboy style of a hat with black shoes and a pocket watch. He is standing there slightly hunched over with his left foot on the second rung of a four rung ladder. The other gentleman is dressed in a pair of black trousers with a white suit shirt with the sleeves cuffed up to his elbows as he is wearing a wrist watch and is standing there with his arms folded and is leaning against the wagon.
CIRCUS OWNER to MR. KOVACK TOMAR: (As the suit dude is looking at Mr. Tomar with an ugly look on his face and is shouting to him in a mean tone of voice): "If my daughter doesn't wnat to marry you Kovack, that's her affair. I've catered to you in every possible way, but my child's happiness comes first!"
MR. KOVACK TOMAR to the CIRCUS OWNER: (As he is still standing there with his arms folded as he is shouting to him in a thick French accent as he is now pointing at the wagon and then slaps himself on his chest says): "Yeah, but where would the 'Gilberté Circus' be without the great Kovack? In the sheriff's office!"
CIRCUS OWNER to MR. KOVACK TOMAR: (As he is looking at him with a really wicked look on his face as he is now shouting at him in a loud and evil tone of voice): "I know you're the only attraction I've got, and you know it too. That's the trouble, and you take too much advantage ot it!"
MR. KOVACK TOMAR to the CIRCUS OWNER: (As Mr. Tomar is standing there looking at the Circus Owner with a really wicked look on his face as he is now threatening him in a really evil tone of voice): "Unless Laura marry's me, I'm through!"

We now see Elmer gingerly approaching Butch in a slightly scared manner.

ONE LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL to BUTCH: (As the Policeman is looking at Butch with a mean look on his face as he is now taking the handcuffs from Butch as he is now pushing another one of the Law Enforcement Officials who was in the process of climbing up on the stage says to Butch in a mean tone of voice): "We're Cops, and we will examine the handcuffs!"
BUTCH to the LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS: (As Butch is looking at the two Law Enforcement Officials on the stage and the two on the floor with a mischievous look on his face as he is stating in a voice of mischief): "Any Four Cops in the audience!"
BUTCH to the TWO LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS {Standing on the floor}: (As Butch is saying to them in a mad tone of voice and with a mad look on his face as he is pointing a finger at them): "Will you two please come up and examine these handcuffs!"
THE TWO LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS {On The Floor} to BUTCH: (As they are looking at him in pride and as they are stating to him in pride as they are now approaching the stage): "Why, certainly!"
We are now on the stage where we are seeing the Two Floor Officials being shoved off the stage by the Two Stage Officials as Butch is standing there with a serious look on his face and Dare Devil O'Dare also has a serious look on his face as the Original Law Enforcement Official who always had the handcuffs in his hands in now thoroughly studying them.
HANDCUFF LAW ENFORCMENT OFFICIAL to BUTCH and DARE DEVIL O'DARE: (As he is in a complete stage of study over the handcuffs is saying to them in a professional tone of voice): "We'll look 'em over!"
BUTCH to the HANDCUFF LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL: (As Butch is stating to him in a serious tone of voice and with a serious look on his face): "All right!"
BUTCH to the LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As he is standing there waving his cane to and fro with a devious look on his face as he is saying to the spectators in a mischievous tone of voice): "While these two Cops are looking over the handcuffs, the Two Officers in front of me will step behind the cabinet to see that this marvelous feat is accomplished without the aide of mirrors, I thank-you!"
BUTCH to the TWO {Floor} LAW ENFORCMENT OFFICIALS: (As Butch is looking at them with a mischeivous look on his face as he is saying to them in a low and wicked tone of voice): "S-C-R-A-M!"
The Two Floor Law Enforcement Officials are now exiting behind the cabinet to cheque for cheating mirrors with serious looks on their faces. We are now back on stage where we see Butch standing there with a puzzled look on his face as the Law Enforcement Official is standing there holding the handcuffs while Dare Devil O'Dare is standing there with a scared look on his face.
HANDCUFF LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL to DARE DEVIL O'DARE: (As the Officer is standing there holding the handcuffs with a serious look on his face as he is stating to him in a mean tone of voice): "Okay, stick out your hands!"
We now see Butch standing in the foreground of the stage with a perplexed look on his face as we now see Dare Devil O'Dare with a perplexed look on his face as he is now obediently extending his hands foreward as the Police Official is now examining the handcuffs one last trial time. {The Law Enforcement Official now flinches a tad as he has discovered the handcuffs he just put on poor Dare Devil O'Dare are now the real McCoy's}.
BUTCH to the LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As Butch is still waving his cane at them with a devious look on his face as he is saying to them in a mischievous tone of voice referring to the handcuffs, {unbenounced to him}: "Genuine authentic!"
Dare Devil O'Dare is standing there in a state of pride as he is now raising his handcuffed arms in the aire with his hands clasped toghether and waving them in pride, as he is now exiting behind the cabinet.
We are now finding out that the Four Law Enforcement Officials, {are real Policemen}, but have been incorporated into the show.
HANDCUFF LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL to BUTCH and DARE DEVIL O'DARE: (As he now has finished cuffing Mr. O'Dare and is exiting off the stage with a scared and serious look on his face and is using a serious tone of voice): "Twenty-seconds!"
BUTCH to the LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As Butch is looking at them with a devious look on his face as he is raising his cane into the aire and is using a serious tone of voice shouts loudly): "Twenty-seconds, okay!"
We now see Butch and the handcuffed Dare Devil O'Dare merrily running behind the portable wall.
BUTCH to the LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As Butch is holding his cane with a devilish look on his face as he is saying to them in a low and slightly sarcastic tone of voice): "A matter of twenty-seconds, no more and no less, the Handcuff King, one-two-three-four-five."
BUTCH to DARE DEVIL O'DARE: (As Butch is bending his head backwards and is looking behind the portable wall trying not to be conspicuous to the spectators is asking him in a low voice): "How are you doing Palsie!"
DARE DEVIL O'DARE to BUTCH: (As Mr. O'Dare has now discovered that his stunt handcuffs are the real McCoy's and is unable to remove them shouts to Butch in a low and panicking tone of voice): "Stall it!"
BUTCH to the LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As Butch is slightly panicking about what is happening to Dare Devil O'Dare says to the spectators in a low and worried tone of voice): "Six-seven!"
We are now behind the portable wall where we see the panicking Dare Devil O'Dare sitting there with the real McCoy's on as he is now in a slight state of panic as we are seeing the two really panicking out Law Enforcement Officials trying everything to get the handcuffs off of Dare Devil O'Dare. First they tried their keys but since these aren't their handcuffs the keys were unsuccessful to start with.
BUTCH to the LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As Butch in now on stage in a state of panic as he is now ad-libbing lines to enth degree hopefully amusing the now irrate crowd of spectators is now saying in a panicking tone of voice): "Six, seven, seven that reminds me of a crap game, when I shoot craps I throw so many sevens the boys want to put handcuffs on me. And that reminds me, the 'Handcuff King', a matter of twenty-seconds, no more and no less. Six-seven-eight-nine-ten."
BUTCH to DARE DEVIL O'DARE: (As Butch is leaning his head backwards and is asking Mr. O'Dare in a low and panicking tone of voice): "How are you doing Pal?"
DARE DEVIL O'DARE to BUTCH: (As Mr. O'Dare is till behind the portable wall wearing the real handcuffs in panic is shouting back to him in a panicking tone of voice): "S-T-A-L-L I-T!"
BUTCH to the VERY IRRITATED LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As Butch is now really panicking out at what is happening behind the portable wall is saying to them in a really freaked out tone of voice): "Who wants to see a little magic?"
IRRITATED LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS to BUTCH: (As they are now jeering at Butch in full blown madness as they are now yelling at him in a mean unison tone of voice): "No, no magic, what about the 'Handcuff King', yeah?"
All the while that Butch was up on the stage stalling the spectators we were behind the portable curtain where we saw poor panicking Dare Devil O'Dare sitting there in panic as the two Law Enforcement Officials are now in a total state of frenzy and panic as they have found the keys were not good, we now see the two Law Enforcement Officials removing their uniform jackets as they are now trying a hacksaw on the handcuffs to remove them but that was also very unsuccessful.
Here we got a quick glimpse of Butch on the stage as he now has a really freaked out look on his face and is using a slightly panicking tone of voice in his process to stall the irritated spectators.
We are now once again behind the portable wall where we see the really panicking Law Enforcment Officials now trying a claw-hammer and metal chisel to remove the handcuffs from Dare Devil O'Dare as they again have batted a zero. The two panicking Law Enforcement Officials are now once again trying the hacksaw. They still have not successfully removed the handcuffs from Dare Devil O'Dare as we now see them walking onto the stage and then exiting off from it.
BUTCH to the VERY PERTURBED LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As Butch is now at his wits end in panic as he is still trying everything he can think of to pease the spectators helping Dare Devil O'Dare is saying to them in a totally freaking out tone of voice): "A matter of twenty-seconds, no more and no less, would anybody like to hear me sing a song?"
VERY PERTURBED LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As they are now really getting irritated with the whole situation are now shouting at Butch in unison using really wicked and evil tones of voices): "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!"
We are now back once again behind the portable wall where we see the now still totally panicking Dare Devil O'Dare lighting up a stogie and is picking up a slege hammer and trying to smash the handcuffs of himself.
We are now back on the main stage where we see the really frazzled out Butch freaking out and is running out of things to do to stall the perturbed off spectators.
BUTCH to the VERY IRRATE LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As Butch is looking at them with a worried look as he is saying to them in a very tired and slightly mischievous tone of voice): "All right, the majority rules, well, I always pick it up on an up beat, one-two; {here we see Butch stomping his foot on the stage as he has now tossed his hat down on the stage): "That's the way I start!"
We now see the really bedragled, worried, frazzled, tired, worn out, Butch standing on the stage doing his last feeble attempt at peasing the very irrate spectators as he is secretly worrying about Dare Devil O'Dare as he is now completing a soft shoe style of a dance as he is singing.
BUTCH: " I LIKE BULLETS:" {START}:
"I'm not afraid of bullets, or of air-ie-o-planes that fly in the aire, {buzzzzzzzzz zeet-tata, zeet-tata, zeet-tata, zeet-tata}. I'm not afraid of the bold bad bandits, and I wasn't afraid when I was over there. {Here we see Butch saluting and saying ba-rubba; ba-rubba; ba-rubba; ba-rubba; as he is now pounding his chin with his hand and is saying heeka, heeka, heeka, heeka, heeka, heeka, heeka, heeka}. Oh, I'm not afraid of Cananians and TNT will make me laugh with glee, {haaha, haaha, haaha, haaha, haaha, haaha, haaha, haaha}. But, I'm terribly afraid of the bogey man oh gosh how he frightens me." {Here we see Butch pulling his hair over his eyes and is covering them with his hands in a state of fright as he has now parted his hair and has said boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo!}.
BUTCH: " I LIKE BULLETS:" {END}:
Butch now completed his wonderful song and dance routine by doing a fast paced twist style of a dance and said hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Butch to the very irritated spectators as poor Butch is now tired out beyond no end at thinking of things to amuse the perturbed spectators as poor Dare Devil O'Dare is now back stage in a full blown frantic state about getting freed as Butch is saying to the spectators in a freaking out tone of voice): "Well boys, I am depending on the ability of plenty of applause, why don't you get up and cheer. It's a matter of twenty seconds, no more, no less, eleven-twelve-thirteen-fourteen-fifteen!"
As Butch was still feebily trying to pease the very irrate bunch of spectators as we now see the two really worn out Law Enforcement Officials climbing back onto the stage and are going behind the portable wall with a blow torch as they are now trying that as their last attempt to remove the handcuffs from Dare Devil O'Dare.
BUTCH to DARE DEVIL O'DARE: (As he is slightly bending his head backwards as he is trying not to look conspicuous to the spectators as he has a really sheepish look on his face as he is asking him in a low tone of voice): "How are you doing Palsie?"
DARE DEVIL O'DARE and the TWO LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS to BUTCH: (As the three of them are still behind the portable wall and are in total panic mode as they are shouting to Butch in unison): "S-T-A-L-L!"
BUTCH to the VERY IRRATE LARGE CROWD of SPECTATORS: (As Butch is now at his wits end of thinking up ways to pease them as he is now supporting a really bedragled look and is using a worried tone of voice): "Well, I'm telling you, the applause was terrific. There was a fella who was finally ready to on, they wouldn't let him go on, but they wouldn't let me go on, which reminds me. A matter of twenty-seconds, sixteen-seventeen-eighteen folks, oh, yes, eighteen and a half, eighteen and three quarters, do I hear dighteen and three-eighths, eighteen and nine-tenths, do I hear nineteen, do I hear, eighteen and a half, eighteen and three eighths, eighteen and a quarter, eighteen, do I hear nineteen, do I hear nineteen, what do I hear?"
All the while that Butch was on stage really stalling the really irrated spectators with his really horrible counting lesson we now saw the Two Law Enforcement Officials spliting the scene as they are now being replaced by a Professional Demoliton Squad toting a box of blasting powder sticks and is now approaching Dare Devil O'Dare behind the portable wall as Dare Devil O'Dare was trying to bust the handcuffs off of himself with his own foot.
FIRST DEMOLITION PROFESSIONAL {Gentlemen with brunette coloured hair, dressed in a pair of black trousers and no shirt} to DARE DEVIL O'DARE: (As he has a really worried look on his face as he is extending two blasting powder sticks to him): "Here, here, hold these!"
SECOND DEMOLITION PROFESSIONAL; {A bald headed gentleman wearing black trousers and no shirt} to DARE DEVIL O'DARE: (As he is now looking at him with a look of fear on his face as he is saying to Mr. O'Dare in a really scared tone of voice as he is now handing Dare Devil a wire to the detnator): "And, hold this!"
DARE DEVIL O'DARE to the TWO DEMOLITION PROFESSIONALS: (As Mr. O'Dare is sitting there completly wired to the blasting powder sticks as he is now trying to set them off with a match stick says to them in a really frazzled and wicked tone of voice): "Yeah, it don't work!"
BALD-HEADED DEMOLITION PROFESSIONAL to DARE DEVIL O'DARE: (As he is now getting ready to set off the plunger on the detnator is saying to him in a serious tone of voice): "It will!"
END OF: "DARE DEVIL O'DARE:"
The short ends where Butch finally has learned that Dare Devil O'Dare was locked in real handcuffs as the plunger on the detnator has been set of totally demolishing the entire stage area where Butch and Dare Devil O'Dare were suppose to complete their stunt. Butch is being knocked down onto the stage and is now laying there with a very tattered stage curtain wrapped around him as he is now covered with blasting powder and is totally dis-orientated and still counting in a dazed tone of voice: "19; 1917; 1865; 1776; 1492!"
We now see Dare Devil O'Dare hanging from a telephone wire receiving pole only in his well tattered pair of trousers and is hanging from his suspenders bouncing up and down in a really dis-oriented and panicked state as he is wondering how he is going to get down.
VERY DIS-ORIENTATED BUTCH to the VERY DIS-ORIENTATED DARE DEVIL O'DARE: (As the very well shaken up Butch is now noticing Dare Devil O'Dare bouncing up and down on the pole is shouting at him in a really worried tone of voice): "How are you doin' Pal?"
DIS-ORIENTATED DARE DEVIL O'DARE to DIS-ORIENTATED BUTCH: (As he is still bouncing up and down on the pole with a really hurtful and slightly sheepish look on his face as he is now cupping his hands around his mouth and is yelling to Butch in a mischievous tone of voice): "S-T-A-L-L, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee!"
