Shades of Mabel Stark. On Barnes, she had Samson lion on a platform which the prop boys pulled to the peak of the tent, where fireworks were set off around the edge. Mabel wrote that one show a piece of rigging caused a cut on her head, which Samson dutifully licked off. She said this disproves people thinking blood compels cats to instantly kill.

Irina was indeed great, but alas, the Colonel was right: "It's all been done before."
