MISSING
ONE BROMFORD AND A LLAMA

»Mum? Did you bring those missing copies?« Nigel asks.

»They are posters and they are colour prints. Here, look«, answers Kylie.

»Those are colour prints? They look like black and white to me.«

»The colour printer at work went out of colour«, Kylie says.

»And you couldn't find a better foto of them two together? Looks like a not so fat Homer Simpson choking his son Bart.«

»More like a not so fat and bald Homer Simpson choking the Simpson's family dog, Santa's Little Helper.«

Nigel tilts his head to look at the poster from another angle and nods.

»And now we are going to pin these missing posters to the trees and lampposts in the neighbourhood?« he asks.

»That's the plan.« Kylie agrees.

»But there are still all those election posters at the trees and lampposts. What if people misunderstand our posters and elect Bromford to be President or Chancellor of Bromfordia?«

Kylie falls silent for a long short time thinking. And after a while she utters,

»Oh, my gosh, let us not think about that.«

And the fortune cookie says,

Ships are save in habour,
but that's not what ships are built for.

»That's not a SHIP! That's A BOAT!«

The antagonist is tilting his or her head to look at the missing poster from another angle.

»To me the llama looks like a kangaroo in disguise on this foto.«

»Where did you get one of those?« the protagonist asks.

»Ripped it from the elevator wall«, answers the antagonist.

»But the elevator is still broken.«

»And we are not in Bromford.«
