A/N: Yes, I'm back. Enjoy.
Chapter 17
Doom pressed a button and the motor hums, as the weasels pushed Roger and Jessica, who were tied up with rope to a hook.
"Put them up on that hook," Doom instructed. "Use that escape-proof toon rope,"
"Time to kill the rabbit," Psycho singed with glee.
He climbed up the ladder.
Once the weasels placed the toon couple on a hook, they're lifted from the floor.
"Oh Roger, you were magnificent," Jessica sighed.
"Was I really?" Roger asked.
"Better than Goofy,"
Eddie and Linda looked around for some ideas while the engine started.
"Roger darling, I want you to know I love you;" Jessica confessed. "I loved you more than any woman who's loved a rabbit."
Her husband smiled.
"It's over Mr. Valiant and Miss Valiant," said Doom.
The judge walked away, whistling. He slipped and fell on Acme eyeballs.
The weasels giggled in hysterics at his misfortune.
Eddie and Linda moved away.
"Look out, you fools!" Doom yelled.
"Not so fast," said Smarty. He stops the siblings with his gun.
"One of these days…you idiots are gonna laugh yourselves to death!"
Eddie's face lights up, an idea forming. He exchanged a look with Linda and she nodded.
"Shall I repose of them right now, boss?" Smarty questioned.
"Let them watch their toon friends get dipped, then shoot them." Doom responded.
He walks away and left the room.
"With pleasure," said the leader.
The others giggled.
"You find this amusing, huh?" Linda questioned.
"Everything's funny to you, ain't it needle nose?" Eddie asked.
"You got a problem with that, Valiants?" Smarty asks.
The detectives backed away a bit.
"Nah, we just want you to know something…about the guy you're going to dip."
Eddie pulls the lever and pressed the button for Merry-Go-Round Broken Down.
Smarty gaped, while Roger, Jessica, and the other weasels looked shocked.
"Now Roger is his name,
Laughter is his game,
Come on, you dope;
Untie his rope and watch him go insane," Eddie sings.
He let a broom bonk him on the head.
Linda joins in by slapping herself in the face and then fell on her back.
Eddie jumps up on the broom and he does a flip.
Finally, Smarty and the other weasels laughed.
The private eye does several back flips. Linda did a cartwheel and walked on her hands.
"They've lost their minds," said Jessica.
"I don't think so," Roger said.
The brunette grabbed three balls.
"This singing' ain't my line,
It's tough to make a rhyme," Linda sings, dancing a bit.
"If I get stuck,
I-I'm out of luck.
I'm…"
"I'm running out of time," Jessica interjected.
"Thank you Jess," said Linda.
She juggles the balls a bit before jumping on top of them, wobbling and then fell on her butt.
Slipping on a banana peel, Eddie fell backwards into several boxes.
The weasels kept on laughing, even Stupid hit himself on the head; with his club.
Eddie emerged bouncing high on a pogo stick.
He jumps up and gets electrocuted on the head, screaming.
Stupid guffawed so hard he died. His spirit starts to fly in the air.
The same thing happened to Wheezy.
"Hey, Eddie, Linda; keep it up!" Roger encouraged. "You're killing them! You're slaying them! You're knocking them dead!"
The Valiants continued to entertain Doom's cronies.
"I'm through with taking falls," Eddie resumed singing.
"I'm bouncing off the walls,
Without that gun, I'd have some fun
I'd kick you in the…"
A vase fell on Eddie's head and it breaks.
"Nose!" Roger added.
"Nose?" Smarty asked. "That don't rhyme with walls,"
"But this does," Linda kicks Smarty with all her might, causing him to fly in the air and landed in a vat of Dip.
Psycho cackled.
Greasy laughed so hard he choked and fell out of the truck dead.
His ghost flies in the air.
Still giggling with laughter, Psycho pushed the lever up; Dip spraying full blast nearly dousing Roger and Jessica!
"Yikes, oh my goodness!" Roger yelled.
Fortunately, Psycho pulled the nozzle away.
"Jeepers, that was close!" Roger exclaimed.
Psycho falls to his death. As his spirit rose, he pushed a lever back.
"Bye-bye!" Psycho cackled.
"Eddie, Linda hurry; it's coming back!" The rabbit hollered.
Eddie and Linda start to climb.
Dip moved its way to the spouses.
As the detectives crawled, what they didn't know was that Judge Doom was watching them.
"Hang on guys, we're coming!" Linda called.
Jessica screamed as the Dip came closer. She and Roger moved away from the liquid.
Eddie pulled the yellow lever back.
"This isn't it!" Roger sounded relieved as Dip moved away.
Looking up, they see Doom heading towards their way and he shoves them.
Screaming, they fall onto a pile of curveballs.
Doom lands on his feet and pulled his sword out.
Without thinking, Eddie pulls out a singing sword from a box.
"Wicked witchcraft," The sword crooned, sounding like Frank Sinatra.
"You got to be kidding," Linda said as Eddie looked dumbfounded.
"And although
I know it's strictly taboo,
When…"
Eddie tossed the sword aside as Linda opened a box.
"Try this," She hands him a large magnet.
"Thanks Lindy," said Eddie.
"No problem,"
Holding the magnet, its force starts to pull Doom by his sword until he lets go. The magnet pulls a barrel from behind, trapping Linda and Eddie.
"Don't move," Doom said as he put away his sword.
Meanwhile, the Dip started to move towards the Rabbits.
"No, no!" Jessica pleaded.
As the Valiants struggled to get free, Doom is riding on a vehicle, coming towards them.
Linda suddenly spotted a box of portable holes from earlier. She sticks out her left foot and moved it to Eddie's feet.
"Thank you, sis," Eddie said once he saw the box, reached down and grabbed it.
"You're welcome," Linda replied.
Opening the box; he pulls out the object, split it, and freed him along with Linda.
"You handle Doom, I'll take care of Roger and Jessica;" She suggested.
Eddie nodded as he got on Doom's vehicle and kicked the judge to the floor.
Doom got back on his feet. Just when Eddie was about to throw a punch at him, Doom moved a bit allowing Eddie to fall.
Doom looked rather smug as other boxes fell.
Picking up a barrel of glue, both men grabbed ahold of it. Doom kicks Eddie in front of the moving vehicle. He punched his fist into the barrel and struggled a bit to pull his fist out.
With all his might, Doom reaches out to punch Eddie. Fortunately, Eddie gets out of the way and Doom ends up stuck to the wheel.
Without knowing it, Doom's foot lands on a puddle of glue.
Linda had made it to the vehicle. Opening the door, she turns the ignition off and the Dip falters.
"Are you guys okay?" Linda asked the couple.
"Oh, we're alright," Roger responded.
"I wasn't worried, were you?" He asked his wife.
Doom screamed.
The detectives, Roger, and Jessica turned and watched wide-eyed as Doom tried to free himself. Unfortunately, Doom's foot got trapped under the wheel.
The vehicle rolls over Doom's body as he screamed and flailed his arms around. When the wheel reached his head; Roger, Jessica, and the Valiants looked away.
"Eddie, Linda look!" Roger cried as the vehicle moved away.
