Give Up?

Well, let me flesh out the scene a little here. It’s wall-to-wall for the Fiddlers’ Contest, The Weary Boys have just sung Happy Birthday, The crowd is whipped up, Scotty has just deposited a birthday cake on the counter in front of the stage and birthday-girl Chicken, in the center of the frame in the orange shirt, appears to be running away from the cake like it was a live grenade. What it was, is she was working and didn’t have time to even blow out a candle, let alone cut a slice or offer a few words. Happy Birthday Chicken.
