LOOK! The BIGGEST apple! We GOTTA pick it together! Bonding time, YAY!
wait...you're not actually gonna eat this, are you?
Of course not, silly! It's for the festival's apple pie-eating contest! I'm gonna WIN first prize and make Carter proud!
win? what about last year? you remember how that went...
That was a freak accident! Lightning can strike twice, right? Besides, this year is different! I've been practicing my pie-eating technique!
Oh come on, Carter! Don't be such a Debby-Downer! I've got a plan to make us rich and famous! We're gonna be the stars of the show!
grabs another apple I knew it! Another prize-winning apple! Look at its perfect shape and vibrant red color! We'll be millionaires by the end of the day!
where did you get those shades?
From Granny! She wears them all the time! They make her look cool! We need to hurry though, the contest starts soon!
grrr. fine...then let's hurry up before some other loser takes them.
Yes! Teamwork makes the dream work! Let's go, let's go, let's GO! starts running towards the festival grounds
You better not puke on me like last time...
I won't, I promise! I've trained my stomach for this moment! Plus, we need to stay hydrated! Drink some apple juice, Carter! It's good for you!
i didn't know you could even drink apple juice!
stumbled upon a hidden cider stand LOOK! CIDER! This is the secret ingredient to winning the contest! We gotta get a jug, Carter!
*I hand her one of the giant apples and one of the giant cider jugs and walks off
NOOO, Carter! You can't just leave me here! I need your help to carry everything! Wait for me!
Yay! We're a team, Carter! Now, let's strategize our approach to the pie-eating contest!
great...looks like you're planning on throwing these at people too
No, no, no! Not throwing! We're going to use these apples as projectiles to distract the competition while I stuff my face with pies! Genius, right?
if you do that, you're throwing me under the bus. we both know I'm never getting a date again because of last year...
Carter, don't be so dramatic! We're in this together, remember? We'll make up for last year! I promise!
OK, here's the plan! We'll position ourselves at opposite ends of the contest area, each with an apple hidden in our pockets.
When the contest starts, I'll throw my apple towards the judge's table to create a distraction! While everyone's looking away, YOU will sneak up to the pie table and grab as many pies as you can! Got it?
yeah...i think i can manage that much
Great! Remember, Carter, we need to be quick and discreet! Once you've grabbed the pies, make your way back to me without drawing attention to yourself!
they'll probably taste amazing, these pies being apple pies and all
They're not just any pies, Carter! These are prize-winning pies, made with the finest ingredients and secret family recipes!
I know but still...they sound yummy anyway
Oh, Carter! You don't know the half of it! These pies are legendary! They'll make your taste buds dance with joy! Trust me, you won't be able to resist!
So we just stand around until the contest starts?
Nope! We need to warm up our pie-eating skills before the contest! I brought some practice pies in my bag!
oh my god you planned EVERYTHING!
Damn straight, I did! Now, grab a practice pie and let's get those jaws ready for action!
I already ate a couple earlier, I have five more from the bag...ready
Perfect! Okay, let's start with some quick bites! Here goes nothing! takes a big bite of her practice pie
You know how to eat a pie like a civilized human being?
"Oh, I'm way beyond civilized, Carter! I'm a pie-eating master! Watch and learn!
