Mr. Wockio, a principal,
and Miss Jonusull a teacher, are walking down a street when a student
of theirs talks to them.
Buckley: My! Mr. Wockio! Have
you lost weight? Wow! It sure makes you look a lot younger!
Mr. Wockio: Er... thanks, Buckley....
Buckley: Holy cow! That's you,
isn't it Miss Jonusul? Wait till the new kids see you when the new semester
starts!
Miss Jonusul: *Giggles* Why
thank you Buckley!!
Buckley: Well, I gotta go study
and get ready for the new semester! Yep. Bye!
Buckley walks off.
Mr. Wockio: *Sighs* Isn't that
dreadful?
Miss Jonusul: Dreadful???
Mr. Wockio: His annual "teacher-butter-up"
to ease him into the new school year.
Miss Jonusul: You're so rude!
Well, I thought he was quite sincere.
Mr. Wockio: About as sincere
as someone giving another NeoPet garbage! I wouldn't mind his flattery,
if only it weren't so obvious. I mean, he's about as subtle as a pie in
the face!
Miss Jonusul: I think you're
wrong. Buckley is a bright young NeoPet. If he wanted to butter us up
I'm sure it would be so subtle, we wouldn't even be aware of it!
Mr. Wockio: You dreamer, you!
We now see Buckley at his
girlfriend Cybunnikins' house.
Cybunnikins: Oh, Buckley,
my dad is out using the car, do you think you could go and pick up our
new carpet? Just tell them Jewel sent you.
Buckley: Sure sweetie! I'll
be right back.
Buckley walks outside and gets
into his Neossan pickup truck. A few minutes later, Buckley pulls up to
the Carpet Palace.
Buckley: Hey, I'm here to pick
up Jewel's carpet. The red one over there!
Salesman: Yeah sure, go ahead
and take it.
Buckley: Oh, thanks!
Buckley takes the carpet
and puts it in the bed of his truck. He then starts to drive back to Cybunnikins'
house when his truck stalls in front of Mr. Wockio's house. Buckley makes
A LOT of noise and starts to growl. He begins to push his truck off to
the side of the road. He unrolls the carpet right outside of Mr. Wockio's
house. Then uh oh...he trips, making more noise!
We now see Mr. Wockio and
Miss Jonusul inside drinking tea.
Miss Jonusul: Goodness! What's
all that noise?
Mr. Wockio: Gee, I'm not sure.
Let's go check it out.
They both walk to the door,
open it, and see Buckley standing on an unrolled red carpet!
Mr. Wockio: Sigh! If that's
subtle, then I'd hate to see what obvious is!
Miss Jonusul: He's getting
an A in my class.
