Yeah, good point. Sure, I'll give it a go. =) Five or six issues may
be a bit heavy, though.

If they realised that the leader was being abducted early enough, it
would make sense that they wouldn't let Fearless Leader take the job.
If all the LNHers _but_ Fearless Leader realised this (for whatever
reason), it could make the gag doubly as amusing as FL pushes harder
and harder to get 'elected' (assuming that that's how they choose who
would lead for a day?) whilst everyone else tries harder and harder to
dissuade him. Although I can't think of a reason as to why they
wouldn't just explain it to him.

Also, I think it would be suitable if Bad Timing Boy was the leader
and abducted just after they figured out what was going on, or they'd
just figured it out and wondering who to make leader when Bad Timing
Boy walked in. The latter is probably more realistic, because there's
really no other reason to make BTB the _leader of the LNH_.

I think we also need to figure out who the decision-making 'they' are
-- obviously we can't have the entire LNH make appearances. A lot of
the characters who suggested names for Cauliflower would probably be
there, though. It would be a good starting point for a 'council' of
sorts, methinks.
