The Lemur Habitat

11:00 A.M. Eastern Standard Time

(Kowalski's POV)

We entered the lemur habitat with Marlene, the chimps, and others. "Welcome my subjects to the first mandatory giving day!" Julian shouted. "Yay," Skipper replied sarcastically. "as long as we don't get anymore fruit tossed at us," Private said. "yes I can still feel it," Skipper said. "Now commence the giving!" Julian said. "how does this work exactly?" Marlene said. "You give me a gift and I'll give one to you! Of equal or lesser value" Julian said. "so that's what the giant pile of gifts behind him is for," Mason muttered. "come on I don't have all day," Julian said, "wait…I do have all day!" Marlene was the first to walked to Julian with her gift. Julian took the gift from marlene and opened it, "Yes A new blender!" Julian shouted. "what do I get?" Marlene said. "A coconut!" Julian said handing marlene a coconut. "thank you," Marlene said.

Maurice was next with a big box. "oh," Julian said, "what is this?" Julian opened the box to reveal a giant painting of him. "thank you Maurice!" Julian said, "more me to go around!" Julian than gave Maurice some walnuts. "Walnuts?" Maurice said. "to make up for the time I made you get walnuts…even though I don't like walnuts…" "Please tell me you not doing this because you think I'm dying again," Maurice said. "of course not," Julian said, "we didn't get anymore faxes…" "as long as there not lycee nuts," Maurice muttered. I was next and he gave Julian a telescope. "Yes!" Julian said, "a new royal looky tube!"

"don't smash this one," I said. "You can't smash metal," Julian said, "unlike Private's cardboard one." "it wasn't designed to get smashed" Private said. "that because that one was defective!" "Now here's your gift!" Julian said handing Kowalski a coconut, "what is this?" "everyone gets a free coconut," Julian said, "next!" Private gave Julian a rainbow scented mousepad and got a coconut. "Oh…thank you," Private said. Rico gave Julian a remote for some reason. "King Julian," Julian said and his bouncy exploded with fireworks and so did his throne. "Now I have the full rock n' roll experience…a throne and a bouncy…yes!" "JULIAN!" Skipper shouted as both the inflatable and throne exploded. "Yahhhh!" Rico said. Julian than gave him a coconut, "Huh?" rico said. Rico hacked up a hammer and knife and proceed to open his coconut. He then drank the coconut milk inside.

Mort gave Julian a clay sculture of his feet. "A bit creepy…but I love it!' Julian said handing Mort a coconut. "A COCONUT!" Mort shouted, "thank you king julian!" Phil and Mason came up with a cake. "Pineapple upside-down cake," Mason said, "glazed with brown booger!" Phil realized his mistake and re-signed. "My mistake…brown sugar." "Uh," Julian said, "thank you…but just in case…Next!" Julian tossed phil and mason two coconuts and the next group came up. and for two hours everyone that gave julian a gift ended up with a coconut. "Oh lycee nuts…here have a coconut." "skipper what did you give Julian?" private asked. "You'll see," Skipper said as I threw a gaint present at Julian. Julian unwrapped it, "A shaved ice machine!" Julian shouted, "Now I can have free snowcones!" and than Julian gave him a picture of a private theater system glued to a coconut. "a picture of a private theater system wrapped around a coconut…just want I always wanted. "The first mandatory giving day is over!" Julian said, "I would love to take more of you gifts…but I'm out of stuff to give you!"
