Transcript:
Dakota: HEY PRINCESS NERDFACE!!
Dakota: Check it out. I'm riding in a brand-new Plexus LMNOP Hybrid!
Phoebe: And I'm riding a unicorn.
Dakota: MINE has cup holders.
Marigold: You are not riding me. I am wearing you.
But Marigold is much easier to park. Also, less expensive to maintain. And she can drop Phoebe off right next to her classroom. Your next defense, Dakota?
Marigold has a good point (and not just the one at the tip of her horn). Riding a unicorn or being “worn” by a unicorn is far better than any cupholders or new car. And sixam is right: Marigold has an excellent donut holder.
At a unicorn fashion show: Now sporting this year’s oddity, Marigold with her rather plain human child. Sometimes, my fellow unicorns, it’s best to go naked.

You’re just jealous, Dakota.

The car has cup holders, but Marigold’s horn can act as a donut holder.

It’s kind of odd how Phoebe tends to become bigger or smaller when riding her unicorn depending on the needs of the story arc.

Nope. Nothing beats conveniently placed cup holders.

What I would have said
“Oh WOW…Cup Holders! What a tony accessory, Whoa, you never see cup holders in a Prius, or a Mini.”

A brand new car = “You will NOT eat or drink anything inside this car!” So cup holders are a moot point.

Good point Unicorn.

You may have cup holders but Unicorns have doughnut holders.

Marigold has a cup holder, too — right in the middle of her forehead.

Yes, but they both have HORNS!! (sorry; couldn’t resist.)

I always wondered about Marigold’s take on that dynamic was. Now we know.

@Dana Simpson:Love the “Plexus LMNOP”!.Hybrids are nice, but I’m holding out for the Solar Plexus.
