They come across a river that they have to get over, but it's swarming with crocodiles.
Luckily, a fakir just happened to pass by on his flying carpet. He said: "Ah, you are lucky! As I have found you here, I will grant each of you one wish."
The first blonde wished she was an excellent swimmer. And with a snap of the fakir's fingers, her physique changed. She ran off and tried to cross the river, but the crocodiles ate her quickly.
The second blonde had to rethink, and decided to ask for a rowing boat, as swimming proved to be no option.
Without hesitation a rowing boat appeared before their eyes. She got in, and rowed across. But when she was barely halfway across, the crocodiles broke enough of her boat to let it sink, and she too was eaten.
The third blonde had to think really hard. (Mind you, she took her time.)
After a while, she exclaimed: "You know, I always wanted to try a different hair color." and as soon as she was finished talking, her hair color changed to brown.
"OH!" she then said "Look over there, a bridge."
