The little old Lumberjack motioned for a pen and paper. He was dying, unable to speak. But he scribbled some words on paper before the pen slipped out of his hand.
"What did he write?" asked the Bigger Guy.
Teela answered in shock. "He just left me, Teela Brown-Head, a billion dollars in his will! It was meant for Ebo, but she doesn't get any, not now. Not a cent."

"Ok, you are soooo buying you're own ice cream!" Ebo huffed.
The Big Guy scratched his head, "Um, Ebo. I think you covered as far as money goes."
"Oh, right. Next your going to tell me that I have my own island."
"You do."
"Really? We should go there!"
The Big Guy sighed then turned to the Bigger Guy, now cradling the little Lumberjack in his arms, "Why didn't he leave the money to you?"
"Oh, he did. He was a multi-billionare."
"Where'd he get all the money?" The hippie asked.

The Bigger Guy answered the question by singing in a high-pitched voice:
He found a magic golden shotgun,
Buried by Gypsies in the hot sun,
He sold it for lots of cash,
The Grandfather of Succatash,
So a nice girl can use it for fun,
The money is not for everyone.
After the beautiful voice faded away, Teela shook herself and spun quickly. She scowled at Tash from within their Super Jar.
"Tash, is that your grandfather?" Teela demanded.

"Woah! Hold the phone!" Ebo threw her hands up and shouted, "Does this mean, that that guy," she pointed at the Bigger Guy,"is Tash's dad? It's a Memorial Day mirical!"
"Memoral day isn't untill next weekend."
"Oh shut up. It still a mirical."
"No it's not," Tash scoffed, "The bigger guy is not my dad, nor is that guy my grandfather."
"How can he not be?" Teela asked, "How many Succatashes are there in the world?"
"643 by my last count."

The chaos escalated. The Bigger Guy pulled out a flute and began prancing around. Music filled the air.
Ebo glanced around warily. Tash and Teela began bobbing and nodding their heads to the beat of the music. The Big Guy picked up one of the Hippie Girls and swung her around. She giggled in surprise. The Hippie scooped up Ebo and let out a mighty "YeeeeHawww!"
And the dancing began.

Suddenly, Ebo fell asleep.
Then she woke, up, realized she wasn't missing anything, and went back to sleep.

The Hippie was tired from dancing so he finally put down Ebo. She slumped to the ground with her eyes closed.
"I think Ebo's dead!" cried the Hippie.
"What about me? I'm not quite dead!" cried the little dying LumberJack.
"Well, there's only one coffin, so let's put Ebo in it," suggested Teela.
Hours later, Succatash said, "Wow, I can't believe we actually buried Ebo in the desert. How sad."
The group muttered in agreement as they walked on.

Ebo woke up, realized she was in a coffin, figured she was buried, and went back to sleep. If she could just stay alive for the next 148 days, she would beat a world record. Wow, its handy, being a robot and not having to eat or breathe as she thouht as she fell asleep. Then she woke up with a start, I hope they faked my death certificate and pored some sort of hard liqor on my grave. That would be so edward abby! she thought. then fell asleep again.

The group was quiet around the campfire. Everyone was exhausted. But for some reason the Hippie couldn't sleep. He sat by the fire and ignored the loud snoring coming from the two Big Guys.
The Hippie Girls had gone to sleep in their tent, and the Six Heads floated quietly in their respective Super Jars. The Hippie was alone, and he liked it that way. For the moment.
The Hippie stared into the flames and it almost seemed that he could see a face looking back him. A familiar face, indeed.
"Ebo! Is that you?" whispered the Hippie.
But the fire ignored him, and taunted him by crackling and hissing and sputtering.
As the Hippie finally lay down and went to bed, he had one last thought....
"Why does a robot need sleep?"

Ebo slept happily on.
On rare occurances in the universe a spoken word will make a jump through space in time and appear somewhere where it wasn't ment to. It has been the cause of many wars, a few bar brawls, and the unintentinal eating of one ham and cheese sandwich.
One of these rare word jumps happend on this night. As the Hippie dozed off he mumbled, "Why does a robot need sleep?"
these words made a jump through time and space and into Ebo's coffin.
Upon hearing these words Ebo couldn't sleep a wink.
