Oh it’s nothin’. Feeling a little blue I guess. I mean ehhhh not the color blue. You know what I mean. Right? I just need a little pick me up. Like some decent entertainment. Or some stimulating conversation. (She looks in the general direction of Ambassador Bell.) Or even a finger puppet show at this point.
Groot chuckles. "I am Groot," he says, excusing himself for the moment. A couple minutes later, he returns with a briefcase. He faces Herby, and places the briefcase in between them, with the latches facing himself. He opens the briefcase and rifles through its contents. Within moments, above the edge of the suitcase appear two very small finger puppets (technically, twig puppets, since Groots have twigs and not fingers). "I am Groot," Groot says in a high voice, while wagging one puppet. "I am Groot," he says in a deep voice while wagging the other one. As he goes on with the dialogue, another puppet appears. Then another. Then another. Then another. Eventually there are fifteen puppets, all wagging around, all swaying back and forth, and all saying silly things like "I am Groot." After about ten minutes, the show has ended, and all fifteen puppets take their bows before disappearing into the briefcase. Groot closes the briefcase, exclaims, "I am Groot," and takes a bow himself.
