Feather: I spent a lot of my childhood at their shows. My dad was a Merry Prankster before that.
Jun: So how did you end up here?
Feather: All of us are seekers, walking our own paths to enlightenment.
Jun: But how did you find this little enclave? How did this all start?
Feather: It was after Jerry died, actually. We all came here to paradise, looking to create our own slice of heaven.
Jun: I guess you’ve found it. The weather is perfect, and you’ve got all the fruit and fish you could possibly want.
羽毛:我许多童年时光都花在看他们的表演上。我老爸之前是个梅利普斯特。
小君:那你最后怎么会在这?
羽毛:我们所有人都是追寻者,走往启蒙之路。
小君:你是怎么发现这个小部落的?一切是如何开始的?
羽毛:其实一切始于杰瑞死后。我们全部人来到这个乐园,希望能创造一小片属于自己的天堂。
小君:我猜你们已经找到了。气候宜人,还有取之不尽的水果及鱼类。
