When the weight sailed by, Maurice whipped his head around to shout at Heather.

"Wooooow! I'm so impressed! You're so mature we should stop by my mom's house and she can give you some of her old lady clo-OOWWTHS!"

Something exploded out of the pond and startled Maurice so badly that he let go of the handlebars of his own steed. He went sprawling backward onto the gravel and the spring horsie, finally free of its load, swung wildly back and forth, creating a deep groove where its face met the ground. Maurice struggled to sit up.

"Did you hear that!?"

That splash was too big for a dong.
