SCRIPT ---

I have illustrated the "dread grasp" as being
the "Judas Kiss".

To "grass someone up" is to betray them.

The ASP is in the grASP...
...the GRASp of the GRASS of...
...the "Snake in the Grass".

The Tiger Snake that we saw before,
Sir Pent-Up, not heedin' the weedin' in Eden...

...too mopey, too "dope"y, as ropey as the
"twist" insists - to be "pot"ted henceforth.
