1 of April, Day Of The Innocent; also known as April’s Fool. As any normal day, our friend Sean awakes from his dream. Walking to the kitchen, he sees his mom.

- Hey, Mom.

- Sean, you are awake.

- Did you make the breakfast?

- Yes, it’s in the table.

Sean goes to sit and when he goes to eat the cereal, raising the spoon, he sees am ice cube.

- Hey, there is ice in my cereal.

- You fell innocent!

- Dad, I should know it.

- Yes, it’s The Day Of The Innocent.

Sean’s dad sits to take his coffee while he is laughing and when he drinks…

- Hey, this coffee is cold.

The father looks the grease cup and he sees an ice cube inside.

- You put ice in my coffee.

- Who is the innocent now?

- This time you caught me.

After the laughing, Sean comes out to join with his friend Jim. Sean starts the day making jokes to every person he knows. But before start, something unexpected waits.

- Sean, I don’t think that be a good idea keep making jokes.

- What that means?

- Well, after last year…

- C’mon, they’ll understand. My jokes are not big deal.

- Oh, lord.

- What?

- Look! Somebody came first.

Before them, a man is hanged by head. Practically a well know person from the same school where Sean was studying. A kid named Ralph.

- Hey, Ralph. What did happen to you?

- Hi, Sean.

- Listen, this is not 1 of my jokes for today.

- I know. it was someone else.

- Who?

- Read this.

Ralph extends his right hand and he shows to Sean a letter. Sean takes it and read in high  voice just 2 words

- Lord Fool?

- Yes, he is a mysterious buffoon who is screwing the people.

- A new joker?

- And he is very smart.

- Let’s see who this guy is.

- Don’t walk there!

Jim treads a lever and from the bushes comes a cake shooting like a missile. For luck the duo evades the cake hitting just the trunk of a tree.

- Where that cake…?

- It was a trap.

- He put traps in everywhere.

- This is not good.

- You must be careful.

In the walk, Sean cannot believe than there is a new joker better than him.

- This has not sense. How can this joker be better than me?

- I don’t know, but we have to find him.

- And how we gonna find him?

- I don’t know, Sean.

- Stop!

- What happen?

- Look.

- What is it?

Sean takes a baseball ball out of his pocket, throw it and a paint lath comes out from a tree hanged.
- You see? Another trap.

- How did you know it?

- I know about traps.

- I can pass now.

Buy when Jim walks, a bolos ball comes out from the same tree hitting Jim’s balls. He falls with both hands in his balls screaming on pain.
- Oh, shit. My balls!

- God, I should know it.

- What the hell is coming on out here?

A man comes out from his house by the noises. But when he opens the door, a lath full of paint falls right on his head.

- Hey, who turned off the light?

Sean gets close to the man and takes out the lath from the man’s head.

- You are okay, sir?

- So it was you. I’ll call the police.

- Run, Jim!

Sean puts the lath back on the man’s head and run behind Jim. But Jim stops when he sees a rope and touch it. Sean sees and scream “Jim, don’t touch that!” But when he touches it, a boxing glove comes out from a bush and hits Jim right on his jaw. Jim walks back scrubbing his jaw and Sean gets close to him to see if Jim wasn’t hurt.

- Jim, you’re ok?

- It hit me in my jaw.

- We have to escape.

In the way, they see a man walking calmed down till he steps a rope and from a bush, a big bear trap comes out and bite the man’s ass.

- AAAAHHHHH…, MY ASS!

- Did you see that?

- Yes, c’mon.

And in front, a gift comes out from another bush and hit the head of a little boy. The boy takes the gift to open it. Sean gets close fast to warn him.
- Hey, and this gift?

- Don’t open it, kid!

But when the boy opens the gift, a giant monstrous joker head comes out from the box. The boy walks back scared, steps a lever and a balloon full of glue hit his face. Sean and Jim are hugging each other knowing that there is not escape.
- We can’t escape. Lord Fool has everybody!

- You and I are the last ones.

After 2 hours, they keep moving hiding behind the bushes and dropping a lath to see if there is not any trap around. Walking slow with fear and armed with spears and metallic caps, Jim sees a balloon tied on a tree.

- Look, a balloon, Sean.

- May be it’s a trap.

Sean gets closer and touches the balloon with a spear and whet the balloon explodes, a trash can falls from a tree.

- We didn’t fall this time.

In that moment, appears a young man with 5 boxes of pizza.

- Take them.

- What is that?

- The pizzas you ordered.

- But I didn’t order 5 pizzas.

- Is the buffoon. He is screwing us.

- Oh, no. I gonna get him.

- But how?

- Come, I’ve got an idea.

In somewhere of the street, Jim drops a lath to see if everything is fine.

- Ok, clear. He wasn’t here.

- Perfect, it’s our chance.

From a tree, they drape a cage with 1 side of the rope and the other side was tied in a lever.

- The trap is ready.

- This time we gonna get that clown, Jim.

They didn’t know that there was someone watching them. From the nowhere, a ball appears hit the lever and the cage fall.

- What was that?

- He screwed the trap.

- There is the clown!

Jim points with the finger to a corner and they see some strange guy dressed like some kind of clown with a mask. It’s a buffoon with pointed red shoes, white gloves, a yellow and purple striped suit including the buffoon’s cap with 3 bells at the cap’s points and his mask is white with a long red nose, a big smile and crosses as eyes.

- He tries to screw us again!

- Let’s get this prat!

The buffoon tries to escape, Jim and Sean run behind him and the buffoon throws a mechanic set of teeth and it lands on Jim’s face biting Jim’s nose and he scream “Shit, my nose!” The buffoon turns around laughing cuz he thinks that he won, but in the turn, Sean is in front with a box on his hands. He opens it and a boxing glove comes out. It hits the buffoon right on his face and he falls to the floor.

- Your jokes are over, asshole.

At last, Lord Fool is taken to prison and the 2 boys are present to contemplate the buffoon behind the bars. Sean and Jim are standing before the buffoon’s cell and an officer comes closer to them to show them his gratitude.

- You made a good job, boys.

- Thanks, officer.

- At less you caught the clown.

- Now let’s see who he is.

Sean extends his right hand and when he takes off the mask of the mysterious joker, he discovers that the buffoon is an old friend.

- Nicolas, you are Lord Fool?

- Yes, it was me. It was me all this time.

- But why?

- You know very well why. Because all the years is the same thing. You break my balls with your jokes.

- But I was just playing.

- The last year you got my pants wet with a balloon full of water coming out from school. All the kids were laughing of me. That was the worse day of my life. So I wanted revenge and for that reason, I did this what I call “The Joke” and it did work.
- Well, young man. Your joke is over.

- Will you call my parents?

- Of course.

The day is ending and the 2 friends are walking home, thinking about all the entire experience.

- I still can’t believe that Nicolas was Lord Fool.

- Sean, I knew that this would happen. Because he was 1 of your victims.

- I’m just glad that everything is over.

- But you didn’t screw anymore.

- It doesn’t matter. Will be next year.

Sean arrives home and is time to say good bye.

- Ok, Jim. We see tomorrow.

Sean gives Jim a hug and that is when Jim’s pants fall down. Jim sees that Sean has a scissor on his right hand.

- Hey, my pants!

- Happy Day Of The Innocents!

Sean goes into the house and closes the door with a smile on his face, while Jim is knocking the door with anger.
- Sean! God damn it! Open the door!

After all, Sean could screw someone this time.
