"If people want to shower me with attention, who am I to stand in their way?" "Ben Tennyson." "Natalie Alvarez, deputy director, Belwood parks and recreation, and the event organizer for this little shindig." "We spoke on the phone." "I'm glad you and your sidekick could join us here today."

"Kangaroo commando would've been sweet!" "Oh, I'm sure you'll be fine." "We're on a tight schedule, so if you'll just follow me..." " That, of course, is the bell." " Rook:" "The bell?" "The world's largest wooden sleigh bell to commemorate the laplanders who founded Belwood in 1638." "Hand-carved from solid walnut, it weighs over 3,000 pounds." " Rook:" "Bell." "Wood."
