Bruno & Boots: This Can't Be Happening at Macdonald Hall Page #3

---

died earlier this month

after 17 years

of devoted service.

Why, that's almost a hundred

in cat years,

and almost 200

in mascot years.

But, sometimes,

the passing of a loved one

gives one the opportunity

to rethink your branding

strategy, which is why

I am proud to introduce

to you all

York Boys Academy Cougars'

new mascot,

Princess Murdertooth!

Oh, dude!

A bowl of pudding?

Curse you, Macdonald Hall!

Who has an actual,

real live cougar

as their mascot? Why?

- Because they are called

- the Cougars, right?

Fun fact:
cougars

aren't considered big cats.

They fall into the same family

as housecats.

- Fun fact:

- you can't talk about fun facts

- When you're dead!

- That's a technicality.

What do we do?

We calm down. We calm down.

It's perfectly secure

inside its cage.

OK, it's...

it's perfectly secure

inside the van.

You were saying?

What the...

That cougar's

a terrible driver!

He's definitely not keeping

his hands at ten and two!

Let's go, we gotta get it!

Come on!

- The surprisingly

- low speed chase ended

with animal control officers

tranquilizing the animal.

Charged with one count

of purchasing

a banned exotic animal

is Thomas J. Hartley,

headmaster of the now

formerly prestigious

York Boys Academy, who faces

disciplinary action.

Headmaster Hartley

lost his job today.

We're sorry.

Because your shenanigans

Brought to light his black

market animal purchase.

Uh, you're welcome?

Boys, since you've both been

together here at the Hall,

you've found yourselves in no

small amount of trouble, hm?

Pancake launcher,

illegal road tolls,

underground tunnel to the local

movie theater...

Attempted tunnel,

sir.

Oh, I stand corrected.

What Bruno means is that

we will graciously accept

whatever punishment

you think is fair.

No, actually, I think the time

for punishment is over.

I think for the sake of the Hall

and its legal bills...

We need to have a change.

We punish you?

- Do some kind

- of yard work?

Keep in mind, I burn easy.

I'm less concerned

- about punishing you for the past

- and more interested

- In preparing

- you for the future.

- What future?

- A future where you're no longer

At the Hall.

- Or living together,

- for that matter.

Actually, sir,

- I have a plan for that.

- I'm sure you do, O'Neal,

But a big part of growing up

is adapting to change,

and it's my job to ensure that

you're up for the challenge.

Which is why,

effective immediately,

I'm separating the two of you.

That's...

No...

No, sir, that's...

Okay, um,

let's just talk this through...

No need.

My decision's final.

- I know it's gonna take some

- adjusting,

- But I'm sure
