A day at UNICEF headquarters as I imagined it in third grade

[UNICEF sits on a throne. He is wearing a cape and holding a sceptre. A servant enters, on his knees.]

UNICEF: Halloween is fast approaching! Have the third graders been given their little orange boxes?

SERVANT: Yes, your majesty!

UNICEF: Perfect. Did you tell them what the money was for?

SERVANT: No, sir, of course not! We just gave them the boxes and told them to collect for UNICEF. We said it was for “a good cause,” but we didn’t get any more specific than that.

UNICEF: Ha ha ha! Those fools! Soon I will have all the money in the world. For I am UNICEF, evil king of Halloween!

SERVANT: Sir … don’t you think you’ve stolen enough from the children? Maybe you should let them keep the money this year?

UNICEF: Never! The children shall toil forever to serve my greed!

[UNICEF tears open a little orange box and rubs the coins all over his fat stomach.]

UNICEF: Yes! Oh, yes!

SERVANT: Wait – your majesty! Look at this! Our records indicate that there’s a kid out there – Simon – who’s planning to keep his UNICEF money this year.

UNICEF: What?!? But what about my evil plans? I was going to give that money to the Russians so they could build a bomb!

SERVANT: I guess there’s still one hero left in this world.

UNICEF: Noooo!

[Runs out of castle, sobbing.]

SERVANT: Thank God Simon is keeping his UNICEF money.

SECOND SERVANT: Yes, it’s good that he’s keeping the money.

THIRD SERVANT: I agree. Simon is doing a good thing by keeping the money from the UNICEF box.

SERVANT: Then we’re all in agreement. Simon should keep the money.
