A spoonful of medicine

“A spoonful of sugar will make the medicine go down! The medicine go doowwwn, medicine go down. Bobby, please drink your medicine.”

“But there’s no sugar.”

“That was just a silly song. Come now, love, here, I’ve even measured it out for you. It’s just like grape juice!”

“Mooooom, I hate grape juice.”

“But it’s magical! It will give you super powers if you drink it.”

“I don’t believe you.”

“You believed Jenny.”

“Jenny tells the truth.”

“Bobby, I don’t have all night.”

“No! I want Jenny.”

“But Jenny doesn’t work for us anymore, honey.”

“You’re lying! You’re a liar!”
