• [last lines - "Dances with Flamingos"] 

  Dennis : Today, we learned that flamingos strain their food out of water. Then they turn pink from their diet.

  Dennis : Yes. Now if I only had any legs to stand on, I'd be all set.

  Stanley Griff : Ha ha ha. Good night, Dennis.

  Dennis : Good night, flamingo boy Stanley.
