For Dumbo, Playing Hide and Seek Doesn’t Go Well

Poor Dumbo thinks playing a game of hide and seek is going to be fun.

Not with his size...and certainly not with friends like Timothy Mouse.

Fuzzy crushes yet another beloved children's story on this week's episode of Fractured Fairy Tales.

ANNOUNCER - It's time to listen to one of our favorite magical stories. Erm, well, sort of.

It's Fuzzy's fractured fairy tales on the WDHA Morning Jolt.

FUZZY - It's time for another new episode everyone. Let's fracture Dumbo, Hide and Seek.

One day, Dumbo and Timothy Mouse had some time off from performing at the carnival. Bored in restless, Dumbo came up with an idea.

DUMBO - Duh... I got an idea, boss. How about we play hide and seek? That is so much fun! Come on, boss.

TIMOTHY MOUSE - Oh, shut up with your hide and seek, you see. I have to round up as much money as I can to get out of this sh**hole.

So get your big floppy ears out of the way. I got to steal money from the pockets of these patrons, you see?

D - But Timothy, that doesn't sound like fun. It sounds like prison time to me. Why do you have to be so evil, boss? Whose voice drives you to be like this? Come on, boss.

AUDIO - Now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.

D - The dark helmet is your master? Is he considered a model citizen, boss?

FUZZY - As Timothy walked away, he scurried up the pants leg of an unexpected patron and pulled his wallet out.

Dumbo hears footsteps and alerts Timothy with a loud cry, causing him to drop the wallet into a storm drain.

AUDIO - What? You went over my helmet?

TM - You're a stupid elephant, you see? Did I tell you the sound of trumpet? How about a slap across the face, you see? Serves you right.

So you want to play hide and seek, you see? Why don't you hide inside that giant machine labeled "meat grinder," okay? And I'll come and I'll look for you, you see?

D - Oh, this is going to be so much fun! Let me go and hide in the meat grinder.

You see, Timothy? You are a fun mouse. You're not evil.

FUZZY - Dumbo quickly ran to the meat grinder and flapped his ears and flew inside the tall machine from the top.

The machine turned on and grinded him into little pieces of chopped meat.

TM - Serves him right, you see? All this meat grinding stuff is making me hungry. I'm craving raspberries for some evil reason.

AUDIO - There's only one man who would dare give me the raspberry. Lonesome!

TM - Man, it seems my master's looking for revenge too. Let me grab a coffee. It'll go nicely with my raspberries sandwich, you see?

FUZZY - I think it's safe to say we won't be fracturing any more Dumbo episodes anytime soon, since
our main character is now ground beef.

I'll see you guys later.

WDHA's Dog Days Of Summer was a pawsome success! It was fantastic to bring the fun BACK to our radio studio at 55 Horsehill Road and welcome some of our fantastic shelter partners.

Rock and Rescue has always been an important part of what we do at WDHA, helping the community, spreading the word, creating awareness, and supporting the animal community who does so much to help so many.
