V is for Vanquished

Scene:  J is baking beats and steaming beat greens.

A (charging through kitchen door with a paper sword):  "J, what does 'vanquished' mean?"

J:  "It means you beat someone; you've won.  Why?"

A:  "Because I've vanquished M and now he's dead; so I need you to help me drag him over to the burial blace."

J (looking out of the kitchen window, sees M lying on the ground with a paper sword over his breast):  "I see."

A:  "So I need your help."

J (with Sleeping Beauty designs in his head):  "I can fix it."  

(they walk through the garage and outside)

A:  "See.  He's dead."

J (bending over and puckering):  "Don't worry, I'll -- "

M (springing up):  "Ha ha!!  I tricked you!! I'm not dead!!" (smashes both J and A)
