Question Of The Day: Mickey Wants To Know...
Is there any favourite activity or strategy you can do when you're feeling low after a long time being sick, and if so, what is your favourite, and why?
*Donald, Minnie, Daisy and Pluto want to know the question too*
The Stingray Crew On...Sickness & Feeling Low
ATLANTA: What seems to be wrong with our friend?
TROY: She's feeling a bit low, which means she's never going to create again.
COMMANDER SHORE: Great Neptune! Then that means...she won't be seeing any of us string puppets again!
PHONES: That's awful!
TROY: Look, even Marina's getting upset. She's never going to see her all time favourite best friend ever again!
*Oink makes his funny noises*
TROY: Well, at least she's got Oink for company.
COMMANDER SHORE: Well, something has to be done. Our Christmas episode aired on Saturday Morning Pictures this morning, which means there will be a light in the darkness that is a feeling of low-light.
TROY/PHONES/ATLANTA: What is the feeling of low light, and what does it mean?
COMMANDER SHORE: Do I have to? Okay, okay, well, according to the residents of Balamory, after you've been sick, your brain goes grey, your creativity moves to Paris for the day and blood will leak out of your eyes.
ATLANTA: *gasps* OH MY GOD! Father, don't you dare say that! There's children reading this!
*Marina vomits out seaweed*
TROY: It's not helping!
*All the Stingray crew scream in terror*
