At last the Tour is virtually over and Cadel Evans has virtually won the race. All he has to do today is remain on his bicycle until the finish line in Paris, which he is confident of doing. Gaius, however, in spite of doing extremely well in the time trials yesterday, is feeling anything but confident today.
The VeloDrone: What's wrong old chap? You look a little green.
Le Bon David: That will be the mints.
The VeloDrone: Mints?
Gustave: Mints? What's this about mints?
Gaius: Violetta's mints. They made me go faster. But I improved so much yesterday I was selected for a spot drug test.
Violetta catches up to the group.
Violetta: What's this? A spot drug test, Gaius. You aren't worried are you?
Gaius: Of course I am. I might be disqualified because of you.
Violetta: Why does nobody trust me? They were just freaking MINTS! They'll find nothing but pure minted pee.
.......
Sweezus is riding near the back of the peloton with Farky. Belle et Bonne and Marie are riding beside them on their hired motorcycle.
Belle et Bonne: Cheer up Sweezie! Don't look so grim.
Sweezus: It's just that I'm so disappointed.
Marie: But it was your first Tour de France. You've done well just to finish.
Farky: So have I.
Belle et Bonne: You certainy have, Farky dear. Would you like some chocolate?
Farky: No.
Sweezus: I will, thanks. And have you got any champagne?
Marie: No we haven't. The race isn't actually over. Have a sports drink instead.
Sweezus: Have you got any mints? Gaius has been boasting about how they make him go faster.
Belle et Bonne: Mints, eh? Were they Violetta's? That man will get himself disqualified.
Sweezus: No, no. They're just mints. But he believes in them, that's what makes him go faster. Violetta is clever that way.
Marie: Huh.
Belle et Bonne: Huh.
Farky: Heh heh!
