Justyne: *walks into living room* Joshuel, Jordaan, I've got to go into town. Can you fix lunch? Joshuel: *weakly* Lunch? Jordaan: But we have to save the world! Justyne: You can't go saving the world on an empty stomach. I need you to fix lunch. Joshuel: Can't we go and rescue somebody? Justyne: I'm afraid not. *leaves room and drives away in jeep* Jordaan: NOW what do we do? Joshuel: We get to work. Jordaan: I'll go kill the pig! *runs to kill the pig* Joshuel: HEY!!! It was supposed to be my turn! *Jordaan is already out the door. Joshuel grumbles: It was my turn!* Joshuel: *stomps off to kitchen* How does one cook a pig? *starts going through cabinets, finds recipie book, starts reading it* Jordaan: *comes in with butchered pig parts* Okay, let's cook this thing. How come you haven't started the fire in the stove? Joshuel: I don't think we're supposed to. Jordaan: How else would you get it hot? Joshuel: I think you turn this knob here. *turns knob* Jordaan: That's rediculous. You put the wood in HERE, I'm sure. *opens oven door* Joshuel: *looks in oven* I don't think it's supposed to hold wood. There's not a trace of ashes. Jordaan: You know how clean Justyne is! Turning a knob to make things hot. That's rediculous. Look! *puts hand on burner* OW!!! *flaps hand in the air* Joshuel: What did I tell you? Now, let's see what this cookbook says about fixing pigs. Jordaan: How can that book tell you to cook with that thing? Joshuel: I don't know! Maybe it says something about it. Jordaan: I say we burn it to cook the pig. *sucks on burnt fingers* Joshuel: No, I won't do that! Not yet anyways. Jordaan: Hmm, let me see that. *takes book from Joshuel* Joshuel: HEY! Jordaan: It says we need to put some seasonings on it. What should we put on it? Joshuel: I will look to see what we have. *looks in the fridge and the cabinet and grabs a bunch of seasonings* Let me see...we have allspice, pepper, garlic, cloves, mustard, and ta-, ta-, tabasmo? Tabasco sauce. *looks at Jordaan* What's tabasco sauce? Jordaan: I don't know. Joshuel: We should chop it up to make stew. Jordaan: The tabasco sauce? But it's liquid! Joshuel: No! The pork! *begins chopping up pork into bite sized pices* Jordaan: *puts pices in pan on hot burner* Never mind the other stuff. Let's use the cloves and the tabasco sauce. It looks like it'll be good. Joshuel: *stabs cloves into pork* How much should we use, do you think? Jordaan: Hmm...all of it. *dumps it over pork* Joshuel: *adds some water and mustard* Pork takes a while to cook, you know. A few hours later... Jordaan: *Looks at Joshuel* Is it ready? Joshuel: It's bubbling, maybe it is. *grabs spoon* Jordaan: Wait, we should flip to see who gets to taste it *pulls out coin* Call it. Joshuel: Heads. Jordaan: *flips coin and catches it and then slaps it on wrist. He peaks at it* Tails. Sorry. Joshuel: *takes a spoonful* It's white, so it's cooked at least. Jordaan: The meat? How can you tell? Joshuel: It shows just a little. *puts spoon in mouth* Jordaan: How is it? Joshuel: *face turns red* HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT! WATER! WATER! *runs to sink and turns water on full* Jordaan: What? Joshuel: Don't...taste...stew...AUGH! My mouth is on FIRE!! *lays on back on counter and allows faucet to pour water into his mouth* Jordaan: Now what? Joshuel: *sits up* You know anything about campfire cooking? Jordaan: Yes. Who doesn't? Joshuel: My authoress, for one, save for what she's read about it. Anyway, I'd say- *dunks mouth back under water briefly* -I'd say that we drain off the liquid, add water, and use the campfire to finish it off. We can't miss with THAT. Jordaan: I'm glad you see it that way. I'll start the fire with this 'Magic Book' *grabs book and matches* Joshuel: AAAAHHH!!!!!! My mouth won't cool down! MILK!!!! I NEED MILK!!!!!!!! *rushes for fridge* Jordaan: *chopping wood* Joshuel: *grabs milk and starts drinking* Jordaan: *laughing maniacally as he lights fire. A big fwoosh in background* Joshuel: DIDN'T WORK! *runs back to faucet and turns on water full blast* Jordaan: *walks in, grabs pan and takes it outside* Joshuel: *lays on counter, eyes watering, letting water pour into his mouth* Jordaan: *dumps out liquid in stew, puts meat in pan, and adds water and herbs, hangs pan over fire* Joshuel: *moans* I hate tabasco sauce. Justyne: *comes in door* How's it going, boys? JOSH! What happened? Joshuel: Tabasco sauce. Justyne: Oh dear. Where's Jordaan? Joshuel: *points to yard* Justyne: *leaves kitchen* Jordaan: *stirring stew with stick and laughing insanely for no particular reason* Justyne: Jordaan, what are you doing? Jordaan: *composes himself* I'm cooking the stew. Justyne: I can see that. But why are you doing out on the front lawn? Why aren't you using the oven? Jordaan: We couldn't figure how to turn it on. Justyne: Be serious Jordaan! You just turn that knob on the oven that says 'On'! Jordaan: Yeah, I found that out! Justyne: *notices Jordaan's burned hand* You poor thing! I'll help you with that after lunch. But what did you use for the fire? Jordaan: That recipe book in the upper cabinet with some wood, oh and some gasoline! Justyne: Jordaan! We needed that...Gasoline???!!! Jordaan: Yeah. What's wrong with it? It works wonders! Justyne: Do you know how dangerous that...oh never mind! How much Tabasco sauce did Joshuel add? Jordaan: The whole bottle. Justyne: THE WHOLE BOTTLE???!!! I better check on him. *goes back in* How are you Joshuel. Joshuel: *Groans* I've been in battles that didn't hurt that much. But I'll live. I think. *falls off counter* Jordaan: Maybe not. Maddock: What's going on? Justyne: They were making soup. I think. And Joshuel added a whole bottle of Tabasco sauce into it and then tasted it. Jordaan used the cookbook to start a fire and cook the rest. Maddock: Why didn't they use the stove? Justyne: They didn't know how to use it. Maddock: They didn't know how to use it??? Even I know how to use it! Justyne: Well, lunch is ready. I HOPE it's good. And for both of your sakes it better be! Maddock, Justyne and Jordaan: *leaves to get food* Joshuel: *brushes himself off, grabs bowls and walks out after them*
