Chapter 8

As Marmalade was humming as he was getting ready he heard the doorbell ring "Oh, goody."

Wolf chuckled "Wow. "Big and fancy." "Rodent's got taste." "Okay." "Cool."
"Huh. Almost makes me want to be cute."

Marmalade said "They say experience is the best teacher.
And they are wrong. I am. Good morning, students of goodness. And welcome to the first day of the rest of your best life." Piranha said "A giant butt." That shocked the others. Marmalade said "Huh?" He saw what piranha was saying Uh, it's-it's not a butt. It's a lamp in the shape of the Love Crater Meteorite, my greatest..." "I wonder whose butt it is." Shark gasps. Riff Raff said "Uh..."
"Once again, it's not a butt. Thank you. It's a heart. Now, as I was saying..." "Then why does it have cheeks?"
Everyone shushed him.
"Shut it!" "What? I've never seen a heart with cheeks."
Marmalade scoffed "It's not a..."
"Booty!"
"It's not a butt! Not a butt!"
"Does he know what a butt is?"

Marmalade cleared his throat "As I was saying,
on the outside, the lot of you are villains, predators, remorseless sociopaths."

Shark said blushing "Oh, stop. You're making me blush."

"But inside, there's a flower...
the flower of goodness... and when it blooms
and you feel that tingle of positivity radiating through your body, you're going to want to feel it all the time." Riff Raff looked at his tail then smiled.

Molly asked "So we're going for a tingle?" Marmalade said "Not any tingle. The tingle of goodness, which you'll feel
in my state-of-the-art Sharing Laboratory."

They all walked up.

"Okay, Mr. Snake, I'm going to give you a Push Pop."

Mr. Snake got the push pop "Great! Push Pop just for me!" He was about to eat it.
"No, to share."
"Why?"
"Well, on a fundamental level,
it's about putting someone else's needs ahead of your own." He showed shark sitting down.
Snaked chuckled "Oh, no. No way." Riff Raff said "Snake."

Snake groaned "All right, all right." Shark said "This is going to taste extra sweet, 'cause I know how bad you want it." Snake groaned as he shakily gave him the push pop.
"Pop me, please. Ah..." snake then ate it "Nope. Sucker."

Shark said "That's it!" He grabbed snake as he gasped
"I'll teach you to share!"

Shark then ate snake. The others gasped.
Shark said "Mm, I like sharing. It's yummy. Mm."
Snake said as his voice echoed in sharks stomach "Totally worth it."

Marmalade said "Well, that's terrifying. Let's try something simpler."

It showed them in the streets "A good person always pays attention to the needs of others. Now, here's a kindly, frail grandma."

It showed Molly dressed as a grandma as the others laughed.

"Mr. Piranha, help grandma across the street."

Piranha scoffed "Sure, sure, sure. I do this all the time.
Here you go, ma'am." The others laughed.

Webs said "Oh, he is totally gonna blow it." Piranha asked "What was that? What did you say? You think I can't do this?"

Webs laughed. Molly shouted "No, no, no, Piranha!"
She then got hit by a car to piranha's surprise. Molly screamed as she fell back to the street in many pieces.

"Maybe simpler?"
It showed the gang in the backyard as a cat meowed.
Wolf said "Hey, look. It's a cat stuck in a tree."

Marmalade said "It doesn't get much simpler than that. Now, what in this scenario would give you that good tingle?" 

Snake said "Eating it?
This is why I always carry two pieces of bread with me." "No.
I want you to s..." "Smack it." "Skin it?"
"Stab it."
"Sauté it."
"Sing to it?"
"Slip it?"
"Skip it?"
"Swing it?"

"Save it. I want you to sa...
That's obv... It's so obvi... I want you to save it."

They all said "Oh!"
"Right, right."
"Right, right, right." "Sure."
They all said showing their scary faces to the kitten "Here, kitty, kitty, kitty."

The cat got scared then climbed up more into the tree.

Mac said "Whoa, that cat is obviously defective." Piranha said "What is wrong with you?
You're gonna give it a heart attack." He scoffed "I'll handle this." He climbed up "What's up, papa!" The yowled and jumped off landing on riff raff's face. The car then scratched his face as he screamed while running around "Get him off my face! He's on my face!" Marmalade said "No, no, no, no, no, listen! Wh-What are you doing?" The cat jumped off riff Raff's face climbing on the tree again. Riff Raff got up groaning.

"Okay. What, may I ask, are you good at?"

"Stealing stuff."
"Oh, yeah, we're great at that."
"Robbery."
"Larceny."
"Wire fraud."
"Extortion."
"Tax evasion."
"Heists."

Webs said "Mail fraud."

"Wait. Heists, you say?"
"Well, that's... yeah, that's kind of our specialty."

Marmalade said "I might just have an idea."
