Biff and Chip "ON SAFARI" BIFF: Greetings, friends! We're here in the wilds of suburbia... CHIP: ...to observe one of Nature's most loathesome creatures! BIFF: ...the Sixth Grade Social Studies Teacher! CHIP: There she is, Biff! But...who's that with her? BIFF: That's a common schoolchild: "Academius Downtroddenus." CHIP: He looks exhausted, Biff! BIFF: Oh he is! He's been her prisoner since September! CHIP: September! Egad! Why doesn't she just eat him and be done with it? BIFF: The schoolkid isn't food for her, Chip! He's her amusement! She screams at him, bosses him around, and brain washed him with useless trivia. CHIP: But that's so cruel! BIFF: There is hope, though, Chip. Nature's timetable is taking over. See? She's going into summer hibernation! CHIP: ...And "Academius Downtroddenus" can escape! Run! Run! RRRRRIINNNGGG!
