	The students are in Jack B. Nimble's creative writing class.
Jack B. Nimble:	[Peeks out from the table.] And so, there I was, [Stands up.] Professor Jack B. Nimble, about to [Jumps over the table.] jump over the candlestick, when I realized it wasn't a candle at all, but a nest of fire-breathing baby dragons!
Class:	[All gasp.]
Jack B. Nimble:	Your assignment is to come up with a tall tale of your own!
	Cedar grimaces.

	Cedar is out in the halls talking with Professor Nimble.
Cedar Wood:	See, it's just that since I'm cursed to never lie, I'm not real good at stretching the truth.
Jack B. Nimble:	Well, then, why don't you try to find a real-life story that is so dramatic that it sounds like a tall tale?
Cedar Wood:	Perfect! ...Wait, where am I gonna find one of those?

Ashlynn Ella:	[(From far away.)] My, what big muscles you have!
Hunter Huntsman:	[(From far away.)] All the better to hug you with. [Cedar pokes around and finds Hunter and Ashlynn.]
Cedar Wood:	Wait a splinter! [Appears between Hunter and Ashlynn.] You two are dating!
Ashlynn Ella:	What?! No, that's silly, of course we're not!
Cedar Wood:	Romantic picnic, um, heart-shaped cupcakes? [She holds up Hunter and Ashlynn's linked hands.] Really, guys, come on!
Hunter Huntsman:	These aren't romantic, my... uncle made them.
Cedar Wood:	What about this? [Runs up to tree with their initials carved in a heart.] Your initials, inside a heart?
Ashlynn Ella:	Oh, we didn't do that. Must have been that... uh... [Points to the woodpecker.] woodpecker! Bad woodpecker! [The woodpecker burps as it pecks at the tree bark.]
Cedar Wood:	Ok, well, what about this? [Reading.] 'Ashlynn, I'm so glad we're secretly dating. [Ashlynn is touched.] Love, Hunter Huntsman.' I mean, come on!
Ashlynn Ella:	You wrote that for me?
	Hunter is chewing on peanuts loudly.
Cedar Wood:	[Gasp.] When Professor Nimble asks me if anything dramatic happened today, I'm gonna have to tell everyone about you guys! I can't lie!
Hunter Huntsman:	[Muffled.] What are we gonna do? Everybody's gonna know.
Cedar Wood:	Wait a splinter! I think I have an idea.

Cedar Wood:	Well, I was out walking in the woods, and I saw something pretty amazing... [She starts eating the peanuts. She continues muffled.] I saw Hunter and Ashlynn holding hands at a picnic...!
Hunter Huntsman:	That girl is a nut.
Ashlynn Ella:	In all the right ways. [Wink to Cedar.]
Cedar Wood:	[Muffled.] It's so obvious. I mean, come on! [Wink to Ashlynn.]
