AND NOW, THE STORY OF HOW NATE GOT HIS CUTS:
Teddy: Hey, let’s run Nate over with our lawnmower.
Francis: Good idea!
They tape Nate to the sidewalk. He is stuck, so he can’t get out. Teddy and Francis prepare the lawnmower.
Nate: HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
Francis: hasta la vista, nate
Francis charges the lawnmower at Nate, running him over.
