That'll Do, Pig. That'll Do.

Maddie, King and I were walking across the Mall today. We were talking about our favorite childhood movies, and from there we got on the topic of the movie Babe.
We then realized that there was a catch phrase of sorts in that movie that the old farmer says to Babe after Babe successfully herds the sheep.
We walked to dinner trying to figure it out.
We talked about it at dinner.
When we got back to the dorm, Maddie and I decided to go downstairs to talk to Tim.
On our way to Tim's room, we walked past Brochman's room. Brochman came out to chat, his fingers holding his place in Arabian Nights.
I asked him about the book, saying that I had never read it and had always wanted to.

Brochman: Arabian nights is basically a story within a story within a story. It starts with a princess who's going to have her head cut off. She starts to tell her captor a story to prolong her life. In her story, there's a genie who pops out of a lamp and begins to tell a story, and in the genie's story someone else is telling a story, and it just keeps going on.*

Maddie: Have you ever seen the movie Babe?

Brochman: Well that was random. Yeah I think I have. Why?

Holly: Because we've been trying to figure out what the old farmer says to Babe after he herds the sheep. It's like 'atta pig' or 'good pig' or something like that. It's a catch phrase of sorts.

Brochman: I have no idea.

-random boy walks in-

Brochman: Do you know what the old farmer guy says to Babe after he herds the sheep?

Boy 1: No idea.

-another random boy walks in-

Boy 1: You know in the movie Babe, when Babe herds the sheep? What does the old farmer say to him?

Boy 2: Gosh, I don't know. I haven't seen that movie in a really long time.

Boy 1: I'll look it up.

-Boy 1 goes in room and shuts door-

-Boy 2 goes in room and shuts door-

-Maddie, Holly, and Brochman continue chatting-

-Boy 1 opens door of room, and steps into hallway-

Boy 1: That'll do, pig. That'll do.

-Boy 1 goes back into room and shuts door-

-Boy 2 comes out of room-

Boy 2: That'll do, pig. That'll do.

-Boy 2 goes back into room and closes door-


Pretty sure we accidently semi experienced the chain reaction of Arabian Nights in real life.

College is epic.

*Note: I paraphrased Brochman's summary of Arabian Nights (as did he, probably, when he summarized it). May not be completely accurate.
