The Abbreviated Adventures of Mogey & Smush Volume XXXVII

Mogey and Smush didn't have many close friends. The closest thing they had to a friend, in fact was a local bean farmer named Beansey. Mogey and Smush ate a LOT of beans, and so they'd become pretty close with Beansey over the years.

On the first day of summer Mogey and Smush skipped gladly down the lane to Beansey's farm when they encountered a most horrific sight. Beansey's bean farm wasn't a bean farm at all.

The beanstalks had been replaced by row upon row of corn. A sign above the gate now read Corney's Corn Farm. And out in the cornfield stood a scarecrow that looked suspiciously like Beansey

"I see you boys enjoying my new scarecrow," a drawling voice said. Sure enough, Mogey and Smush spun around to see Beansey's evil twin brother, Corney, striding in from the field. "Can I interest you boys in some corn?" he asked.

Mogey and Smush fell to their knees and screamed to the heavens as if trying to pull back their only sort-of friend.

"NOOO! BEANSEYYY!"
