Kenwritez wraps the stopped bunnies in strips of smoked bacon and sprigs of rosemary, salts and pappers them, spritzes them with 4 T of lemon juice, then pops them into the greased, doughed pie plates at 375 degrees F for 40 minutes.

DING! <oven bell rings rings>

The wonderful smell of baked hasenpfeffer with rosemary and bacon spreads thoughout the room. Even Kelly's nose twitches and she licks her lips in desire for a taste.

Rabbit.. killer rabbit?

Oh, my God, what have I done?

<overcome by remorse>

Was it me who set the killer bunny on Icarus Coot?

Find me a priest someone! I need to confess.

The Rev. Rowen comes in and asks, in a caring and compassionate manner, "Will I do? I am not a priest- and am a woman.... On the other hand, you need not call me Father.... And you might prefer the informality of us non- Father types... So call me Pastor, or Reverend or Hey You...Tell me your worries, my son...."

Kingsfold: I fear I have done a terrible thing, to one of God's elect...

Rowen: What, a priest?

Kingsfold: No, even worse - a Host! In fact a Heavenly Host no less! How can I live with myself?

Rowen: The short answer is you can't. But I'll see what I can do.

<cut to hunky guy sat at table>

MrT (ChrisT): You ain't getting me on no plane, fool. Or no helicopter neither. But I will drink this tasty milk *glug glug glug* uh-oh...

Phoenix (as Face): Hehehe, one problem out of the way. Now where's that Kelly got to?

The Rev Rowen, in her caring compassionate way, coms back to kingsfold.
"Sorry mate, can't mend what is broken now. Sorry. I'll give you my letter opener if you want an honourable but weird and painful way out...."

Sound of sad and sorrowful but weird music in background.

What do you mean I can't mend what is broken? That you'll lend me a letter opener? Icky's not dead you know! I just made a mistake. Have pity on me! Miserere mei Deus, secundum magnam misericordiam tuam and all that!

Liberal Protestant's fine by me...I can translate.

"Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy great goodness..."

What do you mean you're going? I mean, what sort of an example is that for a Reverend to set? What happened to love, to forgiveness, to...

<sees that Rev Rowen has truly departed and sinks sorrowfully to the floor, sobbing heart-rendingly in the corner. Unbidden the words of the Psalmist come to mind "Thy rebuke hath broken my heart, I am full of heaviness. I looked for some to have pity on me, but there was no man, neither found I any to comfort me.."

kingsfold's hand brushes against Rowen's letter opener, and picks it up. Still sobbing, kingsfold turns the knife over and over, meditatively>

Sarkycow lurks in the shadows behind Erin, trying to get her attention. Finally she coughs. Erin jumps, startled, then looks round.

Erin: Oh, it's you. Why the **** aren't you down in ******* Hell, killing all the ******* posters?

Sarkycow: I have information. Good information. About the bunnies, stoo's plottings, and starbelly's secret desires. What's it worth?

Sarkycow thinks to self: I might even tell her about Bel. She has more power than him, and pays more.

Sheila: I know who shot Icarus Coot!

Sheila <runs and shields the Mass Delete button with her body> : Don't do this Bel! If you love me - please don't do this!

Belisarius: Move away Sheila! Or I will crush you too!

Sheila <gasping>: Bel! After all we've been through?

Belisarius <breaks down > : It's no good. Sheila, you know I can never refuse you. <sobs with his head on his folded arms>

Sheila: Oh Bel! <She noses his hand open and curls up in it. There is a pause> It was Smudgie by the way. Kingsfold was mesmerised by Dr Cosmo's legs, the guilt he feels is baseless!

Sarkycow < annoyed she didn't find out first > How did she do it?

Erin: While having some sort of dispute with him, she pulled a gun from the Random Thread and fired it before it changed into a turkey baster. Before I pass punishment, I must find out the motive...

Simon: I think you already know the motive Erin. You have known it for a long time. Smudgie is looking to take over the ship. That is all the love affair with Stoo is for, she is trying to win over the hosts, Icaurs found out here secret plan,as did Viola, so she shot them. But there was more you didn't know. The plot to get rid of Bel from heaven, and the master mind of the whole plot...surely you didn't think Smudgie would have thought of it alone?
NO, there was another...I provided the guns, i am behind smudgie all the way.

Sarkycow: Why are you telling us this?

Simon: i do not wish you to die not knowing the whole truth.

Erin: You - you - wouldn't

Simon: I would.

<Cut to Stoo and Smudgie trying to sneak away>

Erin <with a voice like thunder that shakes the terebinth trees> : STOP!!!!!!!!!!!

<Stoo bravely pushing Smudgie behind him>

Stoo: Please! Spare Smudgie. I.. I.. love her! <clutches Smudgie>

<Four part harmony spewing noises>

Stoo: Let me take the punishment that was to be meted out to her.

[Edit: 'love' needs emphasis I think]

Erin: No, young Stoo...you are necessary for restoring the balance of Heaven. You must let Smudgie be punished--it is your sacred duty as a Host.

Stoo < bursting into tears >: You're right! < slowly steps away from Smudgie >

Smudgie: Oh Stoo, with my stockade of posts, we could have ruled the Ship together! Why didn't you let me help you when we had the chance??

< Erin slips a black hood over her head >

Erin: Smudgie...I sentence you to...a two week suspension of posting privileges!

Smudgie: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

The Revd Anselmina: Ah, Ms. Dimittis--thank you for your reconaissance....

< Ick/Coot is dumbstruck--says to Ms. Dimittis >

Then you were not just a figment of my fevered imagination...you're a real, living, wonderful, properly-attired-and-accessorized delight!

< Pleased, the Revds Anselmina and Amos release the chains of Adamant... >

Miffy: Yikes! This isn't working. Still no sign of Rolf. [Frown]

...or the kangaroos. [Confused]

Maybe we need nicole after all.

And who will rescue poor Smudgie?

Belisarius < numbly checking instruments >: Smudgie has been sentenced--as will I soon. Sheila, save yourself while you can--

Erin < over intercom >: All right, Bel--taking into consideration your wussing out in time and presuming you provide the appropriate bribes, I am inclined to be magnanimous.

Belisarius < appropriately grovelling >: Thank you, Thank you!! The Green & Blacks boxes will be on their way--

Erin: --OK, OK, shut up! Viola and I figured out that your shooting her was an accident while she was taking care of an attack from the Overboard Coalition--next time, let the Admins handle the hackers.

Belisarius: Of course, of course--I was a little megalomaniacal at the time...

Erin: Your probation is...hosting the party thread Starbelly promised to the Bunnies.

Belisarius: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

< falls in a dead faint... >

Miffy [Confused] [Big Grin] Aha! Vengeance is mine!! [Two face]

Erin's on our siiide! Erin's on our siiide! (flurry of sunny smilies)

skips over to lapin chasseur and rips open crust with her bare paws. Her fellow bunnies swarm out and soon Erin is lost under a sea of fluffy white fur. [Love] [Love]

< Erin squirms out of the pile of bunnies and shouts > NOW!!!!!!!!!!

< A huge net falls out of the sky--dropped by the Apache Helicopter--now piloted by Stoo--and traps the Bunnies >

Erin: Now Balance is truly restored...

< 30 minutes later >

Stoo: Well, now that the Bunnies are under control under their party thread, Absolute Good, Absolute Evil, and, uh, you, Coot, are balanced again.

Ick/Coot: Forgive me, my friend, for making that fatal step into Ambition. It is not the Heavenly Way...

Stoo < clasps hands with Ick/Coot >: No, you must forgive me for breaking my Hostly Oath...

Ick/Coot: No, forgive me...

Stoo: No, you first...

< Four-part-harmony spewing noises >

THE END(?)
