Oscar offers to help sweep if David helps him out by putting something that starts with M that is also brown and mushy into his jar. David fills the jar with meatballs instead (since they also start with M), then hands Oscar the broom and heads off to the park to enjoy himself. "Zinged again," Oscar sighs.
