Green Promises

"Starsky, what is that awful odor?"

"Soup."

"Soup?"

"Yeah. You know soup, don't ya?"

<sigh> "Yes, Starsk. I know soup, but no soup I've ever made smelled quite like -- that. And it's green!"

"It's almost finished. Hungry?"

"Not hardly."

"You promised."

"What?"

"When I dragged your ass out from under that car. In the ambulance. You kept thanking me and swore you'd do anything for me. Don't ya remember?"

<long-suffering sigh> "Vaguely."

"So you're eatin' this soup."

"Not until you tell me what's in it?"

"Frogs."

"What! As in -- green and croaky?"

<snicker> "Of course. Now sit down."

"What the hell is this?"

"Oh! Give that to me. I wondered where that last frog had gotten to! Thanks for finding the little bugger. I knew one had made a get-away, but I couldn't flush him out."

"You are not adding this poor creature to that stew pot!. God... I'm going to be sick-"

"Be sure to brush your teeth afterward! And hurry up. Soup's on!"

<muffled> "Fuck you."

<snicker> "Oh, and Hutch?"

<groan> "What?!"

"April Fool's."
