Mugged

Fred, leader of The Downtown Squirrels, confronted Ozzie.
Where are your nuts, fella?
Ozzie explained: I was mugged by a racoon. He flew out of the bushes, knocked me down, kicked me until I coughed up every nut. Look at these bruises.
Fred snarled, what about the self defense course you took?
Ozzie stared at the ground. My legs cramped. I was out of breath. He took me by surprise.
So you brought back nothing for the group. You are an embarassment. I'm thinking iof kicking you out.
Ozzie suddenly brightened. Wait, I did return with something. I found part of a Twinkie.
Where is it? There's nothing in your pouch. Where did you stash it?
Ozzie smiled sheepishly.
Well, that might be a separate issue.
Then he bent over.
