[Python Ripoff] Shepherd: It’s my belief that these sheep are laborin’ under the misapprehension that they’re beany babies. Tourist: But where did they get that idea? Shepherd: From Harold. He’s that most dangerous of creatures, a clever sheep. ‘e’s realized that a sheep’s life consists of standin’ around for a few months and then bein’ eaten. And that’s a depressing prospect for an ambitious sheep. Tourist: Well why don’t you just remove Harold? Shepherd: Because of the enormous commercial possibilities if 'e succeeds.
