Wolf: So, um, mate?
Wolf's Mate: I have a name you know.
Wolf: Actually, you don't. Anyways, I was wondering if cubs need to learn how to swim in lava.
Wolf's Mate: Of course not! What would make you think that.
Wolf: Um, well, I knew that I didn't learn everything I was supposed to when I was a cub, and I want to make sure our cubs know everything they need to.
Wolf's Mate: Wolf! The only volcano anywhere near here is hundreds of miles away. In any case, nobody can survive swimming in lava.
Wolf: Oh, well, oops. Um, I won't dump anymore cubs into the volcano.
Wolf's Mate: Wolf! You du- you- how- wha- … Oh nevermind.
MEANWHILE
Torak: So, Renn, where do you think they are.
Renn: Torak, I think they're dead.
Torak: Yeah, but other than that.
Renn: Torak, there really isn't any point in finding them if they're dead.
Torak: Yeah but where do you think they are.
Renn: (Sighs) They're probably just a bit further down the river.
MEANWHILE
Cub 3: Do you know how to get back to the den?
Cub 43: If we did, do you think that we'd still be here?
Cub 3: I guess not.
Cub 4: I just realized that this is my first line.
Cub 3: So what are we going to do?
Cub 67: Well, we were all in the deep river right?
Cub 3: Yes…
Cub 67: Then all we need to do is follow the river back up until we come to the den.
Cub 3: That sounds… logical. Lets do it!
MEANWHILE
Torak: (Who just got back to Wolf's den) We can't find them. But don't worry. These things always turn up when you don't expect them to. Why, just a few days ago I was looking for my left sock and it turned out to be in Renn's hat.
Renn: How the hell did it get in there?
Torak: Renn, remember that night when we got drunk and sort of got carried away…
Renn: (Who is reasonably red by this point) Torak, I thought we swore not to talk about this.
Torak: Oops.
