Smile for the Day:

Peter Pan and Captain Hook:

After years upon years of fighting, kidnapping/fairynapping and pilfering, the two rivals decide to agree to a truce, as both are realizing that their hearts are no longer in the fight. They agree that Pan and the Lost Boys will stay mostly on the mainland, and Hook and the Pirates will stay out to sea, only coming to port for supplies at Tiger Lily's tribal shop. 
However, the only thing the two can't agree upon is how far Hook and crew will be able to venture inland for trade. Hook wants to be able to go to the village proper, and Pan thinks they should only be allowed on the area where they dock.

To settle this, they agree to a debate, with the Chief as the moderator. Pan consults the Darling children, the Lost Boys, the mermaids... anyone he can think of to support his argument. Hook consults with Smee and his crew.

Finally, the day arrives and Pan eloquently delivers his point of view, countering each of Hook's points brilliantly and in a way that would make Michael Darling quite proud. However, at the end of it all, Hook merely snarls, sticks out his tongue and smirks knowingly at the Chief.

Surprisingly, the Chief sides with Hook and allows him into the village, to the dismay of Pan and Tiger Lily. After Hook leaves smugly, Pan walks up to the Chief. "Chief," he says, " I thought I had done really well today, using words to fight instead of my knife and hands. Everyone in the crowd appears to have been on my side. Tell me... what did Hook say that convinced you?"

The Chief looked at Pan and, after a moment's thought, replied "Well, on one hand, you did have a very good argument and countered his points skillfully. On the other hand, Hook had a point."




Boom boom.
