[SCENE: A sunny day at the beach, Mangum is relaxing in a chair listening to the waves and is surprised by Higgins, again]
Higgins, terrified: MANGUM! MANGUM! WE HAVE A PROBLEM
Mangum: Higgins, what is it? Whatever it is, I can solve it. I’m an award winning baseba- I mean, private investigator, you know.
Higgins: Did you almost say baseball player?
Mangum, incredulous: Of course not! That’d be ridiculous. Now what is it Higgins?
Higgins: We have a problem, Mangum
Mangum: Yes. I know. You’ve said that. You even screamed hysterically, which is out of character for you.
Higgins: It’s the Crimson Tide
Mangum, perplexed: The what?
Higgins: The Crimson Tide
Mangum: Is that a biker gang?
Higgins, frustrated: no it's a-
Mangum: Is it an environmental disaster? Because that sounds like an environmental disaster. I can do a lot of things but I can’t solve environmental disaster.
Higgins: No. It's-
Mangum: Oh wait, I get it, is it some sort of
Higgins, furious for being interrupted: MANGUM. WHATEVER YOU’RE ABOUT TO SAY IS INCORRECT
Mangum: Is is a baseball team, Higgins?
Higgins: Well, yes. I guess you weren’t incorrect
Mangum: What’s the problem Higgins?
Higgins: Well, we’ve had some close run ins with these guys in the past, and now we’re facing them again
Mangum: So wait are they a baseball team or a biker gang because you’re acting like they’re a biker gang
Higgins: Irrelevant. Last night they slaughtered a bunch of wildcats
Mangum: WHAT
Higgins: You heard me
Mangum: That’s awful. So they’re a baseball playing environmental disaster biker gang
Higgins: I guess you could say that
Mangum: I mean when you say Crimson Tide it sounds a lot like a bunch of sea creatures perished and their blood went everywhere
Higgins: MANGUM. FOCUS.
Mangum: Stop yelling, John. It’s not good for your health.
Higgins: Regardless, what’re you going to do to stop these monsters?
Mangum: Wait. They're monst-
Higgins: MANGUM
Mangum: Oh. You meant metaphorically. Well, Higgins. Here's my plan.
Higgins: Okay.
Mangum: First I'll try hitting them. Maybe with a bat or something.
Higgins: Okay. That might work. It's a little odd, but it might work.
Mangum: Then I'll try throwing stuff at them.
Higgins: That's definitely odd.
Mangum: If that doesn't work, I'll have someone dunk on them.
Higgins, dumbfounded: Wut.
Mangum, confident: Trust me Higgins, I know it'll work. I have firsthand knowledge of what it's like to be dunked on.
