The last line of this quest text which reads "DESPAIR, FRUIT VENDOR, SO DELICIOUS" is a callback to the quote of "DESPAIR, SO DELICIOUS" during the battle with [npc=38112] in Halls of Reflection. The voice acting of this quote was parodied in memes because it sounded like he was saying "Dis pear, so delicious". Only fitting that it's now been brought back with the nemesis of the fruit vendor.

Does the fruit vendor think that I am blind? Do they think I wouldn't see his ogre reinforcement?
Ran this on both heroic and normal and the head did not drop for me.

Description
The head of just ONE ogre won't be enough to stop the fruit vendor. No, the fruit vendor is wise, they would not put all of their fruit into one basket. Bring me the head of ANOTHER ogre! Ha! Then what will the fruit vendor do? Cry onto their bananas as they rot and fall to the ground. DESPAIR, FRUIT VENDOR. SO DELICIOUS!
