The Lorax scares the Once-ler when he wakes up. He screams. The Lorax punches him in the face.
Okay, what are you... Question, what are they doing here? And followup if I may, what are you doing here?

Why do have one of these? You don't even have a mustache.
Okay, that's good.
What? I thought we made a deal last night.
