I do not own Syfy's Alice.

Should though. It's my story. Partially anyway.

Not So Mad


Hello there. I'm Hatter.

The one and only.

And that being said, I'm here to clear a few things up.

About me.

What I am. Who I am. Why I am.

First off, Wonderland is not a kid's story.

Just in case you were misled to believe otherwise.

And anyone who says different is selling something.

Also, I don't wear loads of makeup like one of your silly stage clowns.

Well, maybe just a touch of liner sometimes for flare . . . never mind.

And I don't dress in outlandish, garish clothing.

Much.

But I do wear hats.

A lot.

I love hats.

A good hat is the perfect topping to a perfect cake, so they say. Whoever 'they' are.

Anyway . . .

I don't futterwacken or sing (except in the shower) or celebrate me unbirthdays.

I'm not a hundred year old ancient guy.

I don't think.

Hang on, give me a second.

Wonderland times your world . . .

Um, do you have an abacus?

Never mind, I'll figure it out later.

Anyway, I'm not quirky or barmy or mad.

Well, not frequently.

And I don't sit around aimlessly riddling at bizarre, insane outdoor tea parties with singing, hallucinogenic woodland creatures.

I mean, I do like tea. I drink it all the time. It's the perfect swill for nearly any occasion. And there are so many different varieties! For instance . . .

Look, maybe it would be better if I just start from the beginning, yeah?

Back before Alice and her blue dress.

Before Jack and his snooty princeliness.

Before Charlie and his nonnies.

Back before all of it.

When I was just me.

Hatter.
