“Idiot, what’s so funny?”
“Hahahahaha! Ahahahaha!” Bok-bok’s now slapping his thigh and gasping for air
“I said it’s Super Strength!” Rogelio clears, in the hopes that his friend just heard hi
Bok-bok tries to steady hi the tears from his eyes “What are you Pioneer Epoxy…hahahahaha! You should’ve just called yourself Latigo 501…ahahaha!” He finally falls down and rolls on the floor, laughing
“Super strength et it, Bondying!”
Bok-bok has ran out of breath “So…who are you again?”
“I ath!”
Bok-bok starts to drown on his own laughter oncelike waves “Hahahahaha!” It was in this state that he noticed that he just rolled over the tabloid spread out with all the crushed lice “Ah, son of a—!”
Rogelio laughs, but is quickly stopped when he hears so on the road
“Ok, you’re the gorilla…I aonna kick you…yaaaah!” The child is wearing a hel karate to his eneonna fall on the people when I kick you…yaaaaah!”
Bok-bok gets up as hile dusting off his clothes to peek out to the road He sees Rogelio’s cart,the “I love People Power” sticker now covered by a “I love Captain Who” one The friends look at each other By the street corner, they spot Jong ga, who alore a USA for Africa t-shi+rt, but noearing a Captain Who one The two exit the shop Bok-bok picks with his foot so with a Kaptain Fu label A few steps away froelio reads the commercial of a fast food chain plastered on an electricity post: “CHOOSE FROM OUR FUN PARTY THEMES: OUTER spacE, DINOSAUR LAND, AT THE ZOO, OR CAPTAIN WHO ADVENTURE…” Above that is another commercial: “CAPTAIN WHO TATTOO? CALL 36-17-34” And another: “CAPTAIN WHO’S EMPANADA HOT AND GREASELESS!”
Rogelio runs back to the shop to look at the People’s Journal he bought earlier He closes the paper being used as a table cover, and looks at the front page Only then did he take notice of the headline: “CAPTAIN WHO TO SAVE THE DAY” Bok-bok turns on the radio In one pass of the AM band, they hear the na a Tielio opens the TV and looked for a show that isn’t the “Three o’Clock Prayer” Despite the weak reception on Channel 4 they can clearly see a turtle : “You know hbors…weeeeeh!”
