[Esther finally shows courage and asserts herself by her thought]
Esther:
Your highness, someone is plotting against my family. Tomorrow, my people and I will be banished to the Island of Perpetual Tickling!
King Xerxes:
What? Banish my queen? Who would dare?
Esther:
[angrily; turns to Haman] It's Haman!
[Haman feels shocked about it.]
King Xerxes:
Is this true?
Haman:
I don't know what she's talking about. She's crazy!
Esther:
It is true!
King Xerxes:
Can you prove this charge?
Haman:
I'm telling you, she's making it up!
[Esther shows the edict paper of Mordecai]
King Xerxes:
Wait a minute, that's Mordecai. I just gave him a parade!
Esther:
Mordecai is my cousin. His family is MY family!
[Haman squeals, King Xerxes gasps]
King Xerxes:
[angrily] You had me banish the man who saved my life and my own queen?!
[Haman squeals again]
King Xerxes:
For your punishment Haman, you are to be sent to The Island of Perpetual Tickling, along with anyone else who dares scheme against my queen and her family!
[The Grim Tickler slams the door open to Esther's home, going towards Haman.]
Haman:
NOOOOOOO!!!! [The Grim Tickler tickles Haman with his feather and Haman laughs as he is tickled out the door, just like with the Peaoni Brothers.] Oh no, ple-he-he-ase stop it! Please sto-ha-ha-hap! Ha-ha, you're killing me, ha! Ha-ha-pretty please?
Narrator:
So Haman got what was coming to him, and then some. And Mordecai, this is my favorite part, (Markus gives Mordecai a paper) he got Haman's old job. The number two guy in the whole kingdom! Not bad.
