  • I peel down from the stem. Have I been doing it wrong my whole life?

      Yes, HoneyDew, I’m afraid so.  You’ve hidden from me that you’re a stem-peeler.  You knew from the beginning that I’m a staunch bottom-peeler. I can’t consort with the enemy.  Don’t look back as you go, it’s much easier that way on both of us . . . . (sniff, sniff).

    You peel it from the bottom towards the stem. Even monkeys know that.

      You’ve just been promoted to commanding officer of the First Provisional Defense Detachment.

    You're supposed to peel them? Maybe that's why I don't really care for them.

    Could one say that you don't find them 'appeeling'?

      It's obvious that sanity prevails here.

    I stare at it, and it peels itself out of fear.

    Sharp knife. Slice in the center. Remove peeling from the center to the ends.

      Apparently a spy for the Dark Side.  Drag her off to the prison camp and throw her under a cell until she's ready to cooperate.
