5. Plots over dinner
Meanwhile, far above in the Dining Room Prison cell, Humpty Dumpling-eater had just finished tying Sally to a chair, and now was stepping back to admire his handiwork.
"Mwhahahaha!" he laughed evilly and comically, a combination of laughter that only a giant talking egg with an evil disposition could produce, "Now Emit Rellevart will be forced to let me go, and nothing will stand between me and my goal of conquering the world!!!"
"Which world?" Sally asked quizzically, "Aren't there many worlds?"
"Well, yes," Humpty admitted, "But I'm not fussy. I will simply take over whatever world we next arrive at."
"Well, that's nice" Sally muttered, "I'm sure they'll thank you for that."
"I know," Humpty gushed, not hearing the sarcasm in Sally's voice, "But I'm just that sort of egg: caring. Now, hold still while I gag you; you're beginning to annoy me with all your chatter."
