AT RISE:  The Oberhauser four are plowing through one of Daddy’s beautiful sushi feeds.  ClaraJane is dressed head-to-toe in her Unicorn outfit.

Daddy:  OK, I’m gonna make a roll with sea bacon and avocado.

CJ:  Oh!  Where’s the Sea Bacon?

Mom:  Unicorn be like:  SEA BACON!?!

CJ:  Phew!

Dad:  There might be some black bears though.

CJ:  OK how about just not any bears. Yeah that’s what I want.
