Artist: If the Daleks chose to conquer a giant space pumpkin, nobody would cry foul. We could carve it up as we wished, fit it with a propulsion system, and we'd be hailed as inventive heroes rather than despicable villains.
Blue: If you desire others acclaim, you'd better choose a suitably large pumpkin planet. People expect heroes to tackle immensely big projects.
Artist: How true. These squash remind one of the demotion of Pluto.
Blue: How so?
Artist: When Pluto was classified as a planet, every Human school child wanted to travel to there. But how many kids dream of traveling to just another chunk of rock and ice at the outer boundaries of our solar system?
Blue: You're suggesting that the scientific community's reclassification of Pluto's astronomical status EXTERMINATED romantic associations, giving Human children one less reason to aspire to become astronauts?
Artist: I was going to say squashed, but yeah, I suppose EXTERMINATED will do.
Blue: Boy, do I ever want to accompany another Dalek on my next visit to a pumpkin patch.
Artist: Oops, sorry. In a moment of reflection, I forgot that Daleks are chiefly regarded for their sunny dispositions.
