S e c r e t s

Three caged parrots are busy at work planning their escape. Peter's signature mouse is an unwitting accomplice
as he performs for onlookers, distracting attention away from the soon-to-be fugitive birds. Peter says that he
always wanted a parrot but that his pet cockatiel, Spike, would have nothing of it. Before the arrival of Peter's cat,
Algy, Spike had free run of the house. Though he is now caged for his own safety, he still struts about Peter's studio
shed. The dismembered fingers refer to what happens when one is tempted to pet a parrot. A file and more fingers
are inside Version 1. The Infinity Version contains a book entitled “The Great Escape.”
