Sammy Campione - Investigation

Any luck?
Not yet
But I remember a book
Blue with a golden mushroom on the
Yes! That's it
I remembered it from when I was a kit
Awe
Maybe there is something
It's a children's book
Well...
Tea is ready!
Maybe Kip and Ferdinand are having better luck?

The smell?
What smell?
Uh...
Oh! You must mean the general forest...aroma
Well, I should say it's always been about as bad as now
More or less
Give or take
In the vicinity
On the average
Just to be clear, we're still talking 'bout the fungus?
Oh my! Well
We don't really like to call it that
Seems a bit harsh for something so minor
Very unpleasant, to be sure. Listen,
We don't want to get involved
And don't pretend to know what's best
But
If you don't like forest smells
Our perfumes out-perform the rest
More or less
Give or take
In the vicinity
On the average
And if you wish to buy some we have buy one get one free!
That's not what I'm here for!
I'm tryin
It's really a good offer! You buy one...
Then you get a whole different one totally free!
...Spectacular

Ferdi, I'd just as soon not talk about it, to be honest with you
It's starting to seem like it's taking over Tanglewood
Don't say that!
It's just...a little in the way sometimes is all
Leave it be
Uncle Toby you seem sincerely frightened
Baking bread
Don't have to worry when I'm
Baking bread
Baking bread
No one can hurt me when I'm baking bread

Cassy, look!
J. T. Wimbledon's Botanical Encyclopedia...
Of forest flora...
And fauna
Ambitious!
Anyways, this section over fungus and toadstools
Pages and pages have been torn out
Oh, it's been like that for ages
I'm not sure when it happened
Were there any more copies in the basement?
A lot of old books got burned in a fire a while back
It was the fungus that did it
I tell ya, that stuff has a mind of its own, why, it even ate through my entire collection of-
Rhandi sis, let's not get into that again...what's done is done
I can't leave Kip empty handed
We have got to find something about this fungus
It is puzzling
You know...
We've never really questioned
If this fungus has a purpose
But at least we've got our tea
It's good don't you agree?
We thank you for the tea
And all your hospitality although
We've come up empty-handed
Just trying to be candid

Hmmm, we've got to have something on this stuff
I wish we could help you but we don't know what you're lookin' for
That's alright
Neither do we
You would think with all these books around we'd know
What answers might be in store

Truly, we wish we could help you but we don't know what you're lookin' for
You would think with all these books around we'd know
What answers might be in store
(Baking bread
Don't wanna talk about what
You have said
Baking bread
It's so much easier when I'm baking bread)
(Uncle Toby there is nothing to fear)

Truly, we wish we could help you but we don't know what you're lookin' for
You would think with all these books around we'd know
What answers might be in store
(Baking bread
Don't have to worry when I'm
Baking bread
Baking bread
No one can hurt me when I'm baking bread)
(Uncle Toby there is nothing to fear)
(We don't want to get involved
And don't pretend to know what's best
If you don't like forest smells
Our perfumes out-perform the rest)
(But- I- Will you- I just need to find out)

More or less
Give or take
In the vicinity
On the average
And if you wish to buy some we have buy one get one free!
All I'm trying to do is piece together a history of how it got here
Why does no one, in all of Tanglewood, want to talk about it!?
Well!
The nerve!
If it's history you want, why waste our valuable time?
Read a book!
