The Boardroom Bully (Topic: Kids)
At age 2 ½, little Spandex-kun was a snub-nosed, panda-eyed, vindictive, tantrum-throwing little snot who showed every sign of following in his daddy's footsteps. At least once a month, in the name of "educating" him for his future post, Spandam would manhandle the protesting infant into important boardroom meetings where the brat would scream, look up Kalifa's skirt, scream even louder and would only be pacified if given some of Blueno's meticulously ordered paperwork to use as a colouring book. He had a vendetta against Kaku since the day Kaku had dared reclaim his baseball cap and thought Jyabura's ponytail was the second best thing to play with after the boardroom Den Den Mushi. Just like the way in which Hattori was tolerated, no one could say a word against Spandex-kun simply because he belonged to Spandam.
So of course, on the day when Spandex-kun was found alone in the boardroom, silently cowering under the table, with Lucci, who coolly claimed he hadn't laid a finger on him, Jyabura's initial verdict was that Lucci had taken out on Spandex-kun what he couldn't wreak on Spandam. But Fukurou gleaned the truth later from Kaku. It transpired that in her haste to clear off for a government-funded gala dinner, Mrs Spandam had swept in, ordered Lucci to pass on her child to Spandam and sauntered out again. Sat directly in front of Lucci, Spandex-kun had stood up, wiped his sticky hands on Lucci's silk shirt and gone straight for Hattori's tail feathers…
Though Spandam and Lucci were in non-verbal agreement as to keep their respective children apart, Spandex-kun was a somewhat subdued little snot thereafter.
Still, there was hope for new baby Spandau-chan who, according to Fukurou, had more than a passing resemblance to the gardener.
