  Peter : Paint.

  [Mike grabs the electricity pole but does not feel a thing] 

  Mike : Last, but not least, is the Los Angeles Leopard, known in Peoria as The Panther Man.

  [Micky climbs onto the rooftop carrying the painting] 

  Mike : And somewhat hampered by a low resistance to the night air.
