"Is that a Bandit Spoonin' with a Robot? That is some artsy-fartsy bull crap, my friend. Chicks LOVE that! That's going in the poem. Robots and sexy stuff."
"Aw. A lone flower surrounded by blood n' stuff. I maybe could turn that into a symbol of... of like flowers, or - or birds, or - I got it!"
"Whoo boy! That bandit hung himself from his own tombstone! It's dark. It's depressing. I don't understand what I'm talking about. It's PERFECT! Puttin that in the poem."

"Herein is Scooter's poem for Daisy. Here we go"
Finished Poem[edit]
This is the completed version of the poem Scooter wrote for Daisy:
Daisy, I like you a whole lot
More than that bandit liked spoonin' that ro-bot
You are a diamond in the rough
or a flower surrounded by shrapnel and stuff
I will hang myself from my own tombstone
If within you, I cannot put my bone.
Daisy's Reaction[edit]
"Wow, this is really... um, could you excuse me for a second? Thanks."
(Daisy enters her house and shoots herself"
Scooter asks: "So, What'd she think?"

"So, she didn't dig the poem, huh? I dunno, I thought it was pretty good"
