Boy #1 Dad, he promised to let me play with it, now he says he didn't and he won't.
Did you promise?

The King Hey! What are ya doin' up? Go to bed! Go to bed! [to Bobby] Not you!
Yeah, but...
The King Bobby, come here! Mikey, you go to bed. Bobby, you come here!
But I wanna stay...
The King GO TO BED! Come here, Bobby. Come HERE! Come here.
The King What did I tell ya? What did I tell ya? Why don't you listen to me? Why don't you ever listen to what I TELL YOU TO DO? GET TO BED, YOU LITTLE SON-OF-A-BITCH!

They are that: animals can talk; your favorite blanket is woven from a fabric so mighty, that once pulled over your head, it becomes an impenetrable force field, nothing is too heavy to lift with the aid of a cape; your hand, held forefinger out and thumb up, actually fires bullets; jumping from any height with an umbrella is completely safe; monsters exist and can be both seen an done battle with; and the greatest, most special and regrettable loss of all: the ability to fly.
We called him 'The king', because... that's what he liked to be called.
