Guy Smiley: (Entering, and walking up to counter.

) (Cheerful, just as if he's hosting one of his game

shows) Good afternoon, this is Guy Smiley,

star of daytime television, and I'm here to buy a pie!

Mike: Mr. Smiley, you're here to buy a pie?

Guy Smiley: (pointing to pie on counter) I think I'd

like to buy this pie right here!

Mike: Mr. Smiley, you want to buy this pie?

Cookie Monster: What rhyme with 'buy'?

Guy Smiley: That's the pie, I'm here to buy!

Cookie Monster: Wait, WAIT a minute!

Me know what rhyme with 'buy', and in store, and is delicious!

Guy Smiley: What's he talking about?

Cookie Monster: It ... GUY!

!! (Takes Guy's hand, and tastes it) Ar-yum .

.. Delicious! (fast-paced music begins,

and Cookie starts chasing Guy around counter,

with a frightened Mike looking on.)

(Since Cookie and Guy are both yelling,

and the music playing, I can't understand either one.)

(Guy finally fakes a move on Cookie,

and runs the other way, towards the door.)

Mike: But, Mr. Smiley, what about the pie?

Cookie Monster: (pauses at the counter,

the music pauses) Send me the bill!

(Takes off after Guy, the last three notes play,

and Mike looks at camera, looking resigned.)
