There was a sort of horrid inevitability about the whole affair once Alexei spotted the dancing bear. From that point onwards the whole sorry mess ... the bear, the crumpets, the piano stool, the Sumatran javelin specialist, the beehive, not to mention the policeman's helmet ... could have been mapped out with pinpoint accuracy if it weren't for Alexei's vile green liqueur fogging the minds of the best of them. In the aftermath, bits of Percival's carriage were found all over the heath, Wilberforce was sent down from university and had to spend the rest of term in the country with his sister's family, Robert was disinherited (which he'd been trying to provoke for the longest time, so it wasn't all bad), and Aloysius was never quite the same again. Alexei escaped scot-free, as usual.

Anyone who gets the dancing bear reference or the policeman's helmet reference gets a cookie! Anyone who gets both gets *two* cookies!
