Anastasia the Performer

And the wrestling ring will be out back and we can set up a stand to sell pretzels and beer.

Hmm… I’ll have to man the beer booth.

You’ll have to make the pretzels. But even a total numbskull like you can handle that!

Yeah even a total numbskull like me can handle that!

I’m making your costume super sultry. Elizabeth Cady Stanton would not approve, oh no.

I know you’ll make me look amazing, Mallory!

I’ll do my best… but it will probably still be zee worst.

It’ll be great, I can’t wait to see it! I gotta go, Carl’s gonna teach me some wrestling moves.

Wrestling is like jazz, but for idiots. The key is to improvise and let your body react. Try and punch me in the nose.

Gotcha.

See how I’m stomping my foot? It’s super loud. Stupid people like loud.

Hey… you’ve got great hair for wrestling.

Thanks! My hair is pretty lovely!

Alright, I’m gonna boot ya right in the uterus! Get those locks into it, Anastasia!

Okey dokes!

Yeah! Awesome! Shake your head like you’re refusing to date me! Ha ha! Yes! I love it!

Hey, you’re a real natural. You ever performed before?

Me? Performed? Never. Why, certainly not!

Do you think that I’ll be ready to wrestle by tomorrow, Carl?

Do the strippers at Lucky Larry’s leave their bushes untrimmed?

I don’t know.

They do.

You’re ready.
