Transcript:
Marigold: It is said that the beauty of unicorns is what makes the leaves change. Phoebe: Who says that? Marigold: Mostly unicorns. Phoebe: How do unicorns know? Marigold: I suppose we just assume. Phoebe: I don't believe you until you actually test it. Marigold: Test it how? Phoebe: Stop being beautiful and see what happens. Now do that for three months. Marigold: It is not worth it.
The bottom middle one looks kind of like Jerry Lewis.
Incidentally, I understand that when Phoebe was very little, the changing of the leaves made her think that the trees sympathized with her sadness of the year coming to a close. But when she got older, she learned it was not so, and that has caused her upset ever since.
That’s right… Phoebe has a beef with the leaf grief relief thief.
