So uh. Question.

[The Once-ler coughs into his gloved hand and looks at the camera. He looks like he's trying very, very hard to be calm but is actually freaking out not very far under the surface.]

Anybody else get a whole bunch of their stuff stolen after that chess thing? Because I haven't seen any of my Thneed materials anywhere and it's been days and I'm pretty sure my no-good lousy nerd of a Mirror snatched them all.

...Unless anybody's seen them around? Anybody seen a bunch of fluffy Truffula tufts around? If so, uh. Let me know. Because that is my entire company right there, and I would really.

Really.

Appreciate. It.

Thanks.

[And he hangs up.

It's just what I do. At home I'd been trying to get my business off the ground for years, and just as I got it going, I disappeared. I know it'll be there when I get back, but it's weird to not be working on it when that's all I've been doing for...ever, really.

[He shrugs.]

It's just something to do, really. Plus, where I'm from, people love buying stuff. You know, retail therapy, things like that. So it's not like it was hurting anything here.
