Mogey and Smush were just sitting down to a steaming plate of stargazy pie at the public house down the way when the cook burst out of the kitchen with the power of a water buffalo in mating season. A water buffalo who had been in the hospital with avian flu the last 4 mating seasons in a row.
The cook began running about the pub overturning tables and throwing women and geezers aside in his desperation as he searched for something.
"Where is it?" he cried in terror. "Where is me granpapa's famous recipe?"
Just then Smush noticed a tattered corner of paper poking out from beneath their plate of stargazy pie. He pulled it out.
"5 medium sardines...2 cups flour...1 cod filet..." he read.
"What is it?" Mogey whispered.
"It's a recipe," Smush said. "For stargazy pie." Grabbing the ancient scroll he leapt to his feet and pulled Mogey up by his collar. "You'll never take us alive!" he yelled at the cook. And Mogey and Smush ran for the hills, convinced they were soon to be the wealthiest pie barons in all the land.
