"Holly! Where you been? I've been looking all over for ya." Mulch said.
"Mulch, you won't believe what I found. Isn't he amazing?" Holly said.
"Shouldn't we be charging admission for this?" Mulch said.
"That's all you've got to say?" Holly said.
"I been out all night, and you want to show me this weird creature here?" Mulch said.
"This "weird creature" is a human." Holly said.
"Hmm. He's kinda small, ain't he?" Mulch said.
"Uh, Mulch, why don't you tell us about your strange treasure?" Root said.
"Oh. Well, it's simple, really. It's hard like stone, yet, uh... yet it's hollow. And, uh, yeah, it has this, uh...it has this little vine coming out of it and... and..." Mulch said.
"It's my stereo." Artemis said.
"Look, I found it, so I'll explain it, all right?" Mulch said.
"Okay. Then what is it?" Artemis said.
"Well, it's obviously, um..." Mulch said.
"Yeah?" Holly said.
"Obviously, it's, uh..." Mulch said.
Artemis turned it on and they all backed off. "Where are you going?"
"It's alive!" Mulch said.
"And it's noisy!" Root said.
"It's a recording of music." Artemis said.
"Well, I don't know what a recording is, but I know what music is, and that is not music." Root said.
