Duct tape Theft Discovered...
Who : Phil and WW
When: Just as WW enters the lab
Where : Phil's lab
"Well here's some tips
1) Never make the napkin into a headrest
2) Never pass wind in front of the lady(I assume it's a lady)
3) Offer to pay. If she insists on paying, then go halfs
4) Wear something smart, but casual. You don't want to appear too
stuffy
May I ask, who is the lucky person?" Said phil
The huge hamster paused for a few long moments, and then said, "Well,
Since I don't know what her wishes on the subject matter is, perhaps
I better keep my mouth shut. Besides, I think you'll soon find out
along with the rest of the Blue Dwarf, when I take her to parrots.
Thanks for the advice, Phil. I gonna go check and see if I have
anything good to wear for tonight."
Phil frowned, and asked "Can't you at least give me a hint?"
As the huge hamster headed for the lab's door, he stopped and
whispered, "A hint? Alright - She's someone we both know."

<later in WW's quarters>
The huge hamster was rummaging through his closet, muttering "Smart
but Casual... Smart but Casual... No, that won't do...". He paused as
he shoved aside another stack of his hoarded supply of duct
tape, "Funny, I thought I had twelve stacks of duct tape..."
He made a quick count, "Eleven stacks... Hmm, maybe somebody
reordered all the stacks with more rolls per stack while I was away."
He paused to tally them up, "Nope, their twenty rolls each to a stack
just like I left 'em. Maybe it's in the back."
The overgrown hamster emptied the entire closet out into his living
quarters, and found a wall panel was missing in the back of his
closet. He poked his head through it, and found the missing panel set
against the a ventilation system wall as he spotted Bobo riding by on
a little radio controlled car.
The huge hamster inquired, "Excuse me, do you know who borrowed my
twelfth stack of duct tape?"
Bobo hopped off the little Rc car, striking a thoughtful pose while
tapping on of his paws. Then walking into the huge hamsters living
quarters and up to his unfinished Kryten duplicate, Bobo pointed to
the androids hands.
"That android toke it?"
Bobo shook his head, and pointed again more vigorously.
"No. Another android?"
Again, Bobo shook his head, this time grabbing and trying to move one
the androids digits.
"Hand? Index finger? forefinger?"
Bobo nodded slightly, put his two paws out slightly, and made
reducing motion.
"smaller? than that? Oh, smaller word. Um... Fore? No.. Finger? Yes.
Finger, but two? No, three, No... Um... Multiple fingers.... Oh, you
mean, Fingers!", Finally exclaimed the huge hamster understanding the
game of Charades.
Bobo nodded.
"Well, I guess, I'm going to have to report that. Would you care for
something to eat, you've been awfully helpful.", replied the huge
hamster as he walked over and opened one of his cupboards, and pulled
out a box of hamster kibbles to offer some.
Bobo nodded.
White wolf then grabbed out a bowl, and poured some of the boxes
contents into it, and set it on the floor. "You can have as much as
you'd like."
Bobo moved over and started munching happily.
"You can stay in my quarters, if you wish, I won't mind at all.
Unlike some cat owner, I could mention."
Bobo stopped munching, and pointedly glanced towards the open panel
in the closet.
"Oh, so you met Pita huh? Well, I at least, haven't had the pleasure
yet. I'll close the panel so Pita can't get in, anyway." replied the
huge hamster as he went over and grabbed the panel and reset it back
into it's original place, and quickly buried it as he threw his
belongings that he had earlier taken out of the closet, back in the
closet.
White Wolf then watched Bobo dine on hamster kibbles for a few more
minutes, then finally said, "Well, I've got to go, so I'll see you
later, Ok?"
The huge hamster left, and went to the Security Departments offices.
The huge hamster recognised the OIC was Harry from securities trio of
Tom, Dick and Harry.
"I'd like to report a theft of 20 rolls of duct tape by..." Started
the overgrown hamster.
As Dick interrupted him like the idiot Dick was and asked, "Did you
pay your protection money?"
"Protect..." Began the startled White Wolf as he suddenly realised
something, "Oh, I was coming by to see you guys about that,
apparently there's been some kind of mix up."
"You claiming you've already paid your protection money?" replied Tom.
"Of Course I didn't pay it, you idiot! That's *not* how this works.
You guys are supposed to pay it." replied the huge hamster harshly.
"Huh? We're supposed to pay it?" grunted Harry.
"The Security department is supposed to give me a monthly payment for
protection. Now where is it?"
"Um, Charlie Edwards didn't say anything about us making protection
payments, she only said we're supposed to collect it from the shop
owners. Why are we supposed to pay?" Replied Tom looking puzzled.
"You mean, Tiny didn't tell you? He and I had a real strict
arrangement, I get a monthly protection fee from the Security dept
and you guys stay clear of my friends and all of my dealings in
exchange for my not holding random target practice upon the Security
officers in the promeade with my railgun once a week. Now, I'm a very
reasonable hamster, so I'll give you twenty four hours to come up
with the payment that was supposed to be due yesterday, before I
enforce my terms of the agreement starting with Tiny's replacement."
replied the overgrown hamster as he spun around and left the security
offices.
The huge hamster smiled as he took the lift down to the Promeade. The
overgrown hamster entered McKenzie's and looked around. He quickly
spotted Stewie, and bounded over to him.
"Hello Stewie! I've got a favor to ask, I've gotta date tonite, and I
need some new Duds preferably the 'Smart but Casual' kind. Can you
fix me up?" Said the Huge Hamster to Stewie.
<Over to you stewie!>
