| ~ Wilt introducing himself to Mac and Bloo. |
| “ | Well, he was just that: a friend. A true friend. A friend to me and every man, woman, and child on that jury. We'd heard of him and thought he was only a legend. But he's real, alright. Oh, yes, he's real. You see, people weren't always so happy in these parts. Why, it was only just yesterday it seemed everyone was real down. Yessir, this entire town was covered in the tallest grass you ever did see. Why, even the trees were humbled by its height. And every morning, the hardworking folks of this here town would risk their lives just to make it out to their cars to venture our into the world to make their daily wage. Then, one day, after the parents went to work and the children went off to school, a mysterious stranger arrived. Red as a beet with only one arm and a messed up eye. Some say he was 85 lawnmowers high. He drove in on his golden lawnmower and in one lap, cut that grass right down to size. Yes, the legendary Lawn Ranger. He saved us all, he did. By the time we'd returned to our homes, he was gone. We could only listen in awe to those who has claimed to see him. And we had no way to thank him. That is, until he showed up here in court today. | „ |
