This guy walks into an antique store and notices a brass rat sitting on one of the top shelves. He asks the clerk, “How much for that brass rat?”. The clerk says “Well sir, it’s 25 bucks just for the rat, and 50 bucks if you want to hear the story that goes with it. Take my word, you’ll want to *hear* the story.” The guy says “No, I believe I’ll just take the rat for 25 bucks.”

So, this fella takes his brass rat and heads down the street. Right away he notices that a *real* rat is following him, so he makes a quick turn down the next street. He passes an alley, at which point about a half-dozen rats come out and start following him. This guy is getting pretty panicked at this point, so he starts heading out toward the outskirts of town. When he passes the town dump, *hundreds* of rats stream out and follow him. Our hero is beside himself at this point, so as he passes the river that winds around town, he tosses the brass rat right in the drink. Every last one of the real rats follows the brass rat into the river and drowns.

Relieved, our protagonist heads back to the antique store where he got the brass rat. “I knew it!”, says the clerk, “You’re back to hear the story about the rat, aren’t you?”. “No sir”, says the guy, “I just wanted to find out how much you’re asking for that brass accordion I see you’ve got up there.”
