The Snake's Story

Got it, I'll be there tonight. What the hell. I think we hit something, I'll go check. A snake. it got hurt, damn it, damn it, I'm gonna kill you. Is this thing bowing its head. it's intelligent, oh my God, Stanley, that's not important, it almost scared me to death killing already damn thing deserves nothing less. Hold on. Why sit on the road, something's off, I think that it needs our help. Hey, do you need anything you want to show me something? Stanley, Nancy, I'm going with a snake. Just wait here, Margaret. That's a snake! What are you thinking? That thing should die. There's nothing more to it, Margaret. We can't miss the dinner party. We better move. This won't take long. This land helped us succeed, didn't it? If an animal asks for help, it's our way to return the favor. Your babies are hurt. Okay, go on your way. You're smart creatures, so please listen. The road is dangerous; it has cars and falling rocks. Stay safe! You're smart. I'm Margaret Monroe. The orchard here are mine. If you need a place to stay, feel free to come. No one will bother you. Margaret Monroe, we owe you our lives.

They got there too late. my men missed her. Please don't be mad, sir. Miss Monroe was released early for her good behavior while she was in there. We didn't expect it. Miss Monroe should be back in her estate; it is her headquarters after all. Would you like to meet her? Is it a good idea with your form? It's hard to go outside; people will be scared. All right, I'll make the arrangements. You can look first, but I advise you not to go out in public, sir, or it's trouble for Miss Monroe. I'll also prepare a billion dollar partnership and visit the Monroe Estate. What could Miss Monroe have done for Mr. Johnson to care so much? I'm an Ashford, an illustrious family in Heartland, but we're just a faction to Mr. Johnson. Now that Miss Monroe was free, that little Monroe coop out in the village might just become a major conglomerate. If Stanley and April see me in this condition, they'd be so worried. I can't go home yet. Good thing I have Nancy; I'll rest at the estate a few days, then go see April. Get out of here, go and pick trash somewhere else, good luck. You've got it wrong. I'm not here for trash. I'm looking for someone. I'm here for Nancy Kane. Nancy Kane? A trash picking bum comes here for Miss Kane? Look at yourself. I don't have the time to argue with a beggar like you. Get lost. I really am here for Miss Kane. Please let me see her. Tell her it's Margaret Monroe. You're out of love. You're just a lunatic. Get the hell. Not so fast, mister! Miss King! Let's see.

Margaret Monroe, your latest batch of fruits tested for excessive pesticide dozens were poisoned we got questions for your legal representative you have to come with us now. Mommy. that can't be. Nancy, you were in charge of this batch weren't you What on earth. happened I'm so sorry Margaret it's my fault I didn't do my job properly I have failed you. Nancy, how could you be so careless, Marguerite cheated you like a sister. calm down, she didn't mean it. Nancy isn't married, if she goes with you, she's done for Officer, take me instead. Officer, please give us a moment, I have something to say to my family. Make it quick. Stanley. There's gold in my box, it's worth half a million, that's April's diary, hold on to it while I'm away. Don't worry, okay, just leave it to me, we'll wait for you. Nancy, I'll leave you in charge. Please run the call up while I'm gone. Margaret. I will do a good job; promise I won't let you down! April. sweetie. Listen to Daddy, okay? Be a good girl. Mommy, don't go! マーメ。 マービー！ ああ。 Help my mommy!

Ten years, I wonder how April, Stanley and Nancy are doing. Nancy came for me. Did Nancy send you to pick me up? I don't know you or Nancy. Scram, out of my way! Not Nancy? Then Stanley must have sent you. I'm Margaret Monroe. You're here to pick me up, right? Margaret, are you out of your mind? I said scram! Don't waste my time or I'll beat you up. Well, well. if it isn't the richest woman in Rivermore, Margaret Monroe. A big shot like you getting out of prison with no one to pick you up. I heard that this Margaret did 10 years and not a single person came to visit her. What kind of evil were you even up to to be so unloved like that? Miss Monroe was kind to us inmates, don't talk to her like that here, let me help you, thank you. What her, did she just believe that crap, it's a long walk home, Monroe, we've got to ride and you're on your own. they can only push me around when I'm low, at least I still have my family. Sir, Miss Monroe is now out of prison.

Margaret used to be the CEO, a woman of status. How dare you say a filthy job suits her? Miss Kane, the manure job is a core position. Our organic produce depends on the manure shoveler. Besides, it's an easy job, close to nature. After 10 years in prison, Miss Monroe needs fresh air. It's perfect for her. You've got a point, Margaret. What Miss Carter said makes sense. You've been locked up for 10 years. You really should breathe some fresh air for your health. Of course, if a better job comes up, I'll reassign you right away. I'll, I'll do it, Mr Johnson, Mr Johnson Jr please slow down, we can't keep up, we have so many welcome gifts for Miss Monroe, they're right here. Mr. Johnson, Mr. Johnson Jr, I know you hate getting dirty more than anything, but now so eager to see Miss Monroe, you don't even care about getting dirty. Mr. Johnson, you've asked almost a hundred times already. Please don't worry about the gifts; we have the centuryold ginseng and other precious herbs. After ten years in prison, these are perfect for restoring her health. There are also gold and silver trinkets that can serve as welcome gifts. Everything's already appropriate. All right, I'll walk faster, I'll do my best.

Nancy, Margaret, after all these years, you're back. Margaret, why did you tell me about this ahead of time? I've been waiting for you to get out so you can have a welcome party. Oh, Nancy, there's no need for that. Wh. ose legs did you say you were gonna break? I thought she was a trash picker. I had no idea she was your friend. Trash picker? Well, even if it's true, she's still my friend. I didn't teach you to judge people by their appearance. Miss Kane, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. You're fired. Listen, Kelly, I want his legs broken. Yes, ma'am. Please no, Miss Kane. Have mercy. Nancy, forget it. You're being too harsh. I'm not here to just catch up. We need to talk. Margaret, you just got out of prison. Just take it easy. You're just in time to see how the cops have been doing. I've worked very hard for it. all right? Margaret, this is the office and there is the farm. Do you remember? I remember clearly you always loved a view outside, so I didn't change anything about the office. Nancy, I don't run this place anymore. It's all right. I came here to take back something important that I left with you before. Something, Margaret, you never left anything with me. Nancy, I'm talking about the company shares. Don't you remember before I left, 55% of the Colobus share was transferred to you so you could run it? You watched shares transferred to me; I don't remember that.

Nancy, don't you remember we signed a transfer agreement, you said you'd keep it safe and return it when I'm back, it's in the contract. Oh, Margaret, I hear you, but your shares are long gone. How can that be? That's 55% of the shares. Even if the coop didn't do well, it couldn't have been diluted that much. Listen, Margaret. In the 10 years you were in prison, the coop almost went bankrupt due to the contaminated fruits. I had to sell shares to the Ashford Group subsidiary, Blackwater Corporation, with Mr. Sutherland's money. I turned the whole company around. Forget about your shares; I barely have any for myself. Those were worth a hundred million! It wouldn't disappear like that, even with restructuring, Margaret. It's not my fault. I did what I could. Just look at this office and the farm outside. Thanks to me, you still have this place to come back to and reminisce at. Margaret, I did what you told me to. I gave my all to keep the coop alive. So was that such a bad thing? Was it, Margaret? It's not. But I have nothing without those shares, not even a place to stay. Stop worrying! What are friends for? I will never leave you out in the cold. Miss Carter, do we have any vacant positions at the moment? No, ma'am, there is none. Margaret, you're the founder of this coop; we'll make room even if we're fully staffed. Miss Carter. find my friend a job that suits her. Well, ma'am, there is one very easy job—not much effort. Perfect for Miss Monroe. What job is. it? menyeret. nya.

Miss Monroe, the organic vegetables at Monroe Hills Estate are a famous product in Rivermore. Not a single step in cultivation can afford mistakes, so you, the manure shoveler, better water them carefully. Margaret, Mr. Carter was talking to you. Are you deaf? Who do you think you are, you're not the CEO of Coop, are you? Remember this, right now you're nothing but a manure shovel. just an excon, even giving you this job is charity, stop blazing off. get back to work. What are you doing, Margaret? Are you okay, Nancy? How dare you do this to Margaret? She's closer to me than my own family, and you dare treat her like this. Miss Kane, we didn't mean it, but Miss Monroe was lagging off, so we were just supervising. That's right, we were just trying to help Miss Monroe. Margaret, you're too nice for your own good; that's why scum like this pushes you around. Nancy, thank you. Oh, I almost forgot. Margaret, you're an ex convict now, so you kind of deserve to be pushed around.

Nancy, you're not qualified to call Miss Kane's name. You're just a manure shoveler. Where are your manners? Get on your knees and address her as Mrs. Kane. Margaret, oh Margaret, you're such an idiot. You did 10 years in prison; you're a nobody. And you really thought you could be my friend? Take a good look at yourself and see if you're worth anything. So from the moment I got back, you've been playing with me. Took you long enough to figure it out. You really are dimwitted, Miss Kane. I think your acting is just that good. Whoever went into show this, you'd been best actress with her. Nancy, I was so good to you back then. You were good to me. How's that possible? How could you ever help me? What were you sewing uniforms in there on a prison machine? And I just happened to buy one. Sir, bad news, we just got word Miss Munro's being bullied at her estate. It's Nancy Kane, the current CEO. She and her people are tormenting Miss Monroe. We're almost at the estate.
