Pseudolus: An unexpected legacy. My uncle Simo, the Carthaginian elephant breeder, came to an untimely end. He was crushed to death on the last day of the mating season. This morning I bought my freedom.

Lycus, The Procurer: Congratulations... citizen.

Pseudolus: With this much left over for one gross indulgence. Lycus, I am in the market for a lifetime companion...

Do you suppose this tender has any relatives?

Note to self: wear strong gripping shoes when beating elephants.

Is this another one of those “elephant in the room” stories?

A really thin casket brings the price of the funeral way down.

Not wise to beat an animal that weighs thousands of pounds. I don’t think it was an “accident”. Bad Mahoot—Poor trainer got what he deserved. Elephants are loyal like a dog to their masters—just don’t abuse them—they will take revenge. I grew up around elephants and saw two “accidents” both to bad trainers who shouldn’t be handling animals. Same animals with a good trainer were great workers and performers who would protect and take care of their trainers.
