SCENE 6 OPENING LINES
Lennox: Anyway, so here’s me looking sad
.
.
Cooper: In a mood!
Lennox: It hadn’t exactly been a good week. I come here, knowing no-one, trying my best just to get along with everyone and make friends/ ‘cause
Lennox: It hadn’t exactly been a good week. I come here, knowing no-one, trying my best just to get along with everyone and make friends/ ‘cause
Lennox: This is my bit? Trying to make friends ‘cause all of mine, and I had loads, were all back home and all anyone does here is shout at me. And I did know, that I’d pushed Cooper too far. And I felt awful. But it wasn’t like I did it on purpose. I didn’t know how things were, I’ve never… And now we’re all grounded so we can’t even speak so if no-one’s helping me, I’ll do it myself. Find it, keep it, just for me. It must be round here somewhere.

Lennox: I bet they think I won’t. Can’t. Cooper’s right about that. Adults love to say ‘no’ and ‘you can’t’. But I can and I will. On. My. Own. Like I always do.

MR ROBIN CHIRPS AGAIN
Lennox: Mr Robin! You’re not grounded! You can help. Oh, how did it go? Mr Robin, robin, show me round the garden… Something about secrets – and I’ve got one of those! Umm.
Lennox: Mr Robin! You’re not grounded! You can help. Oh, how did it go? Mr Robin, robin, show me round the garden… Something about secrets – and I’ve got one of those! Umm.
Lennox: Mr Robin, Mr Robin, you’re such a charmer
Please could you show me the way to the garden?
Dylan: That’s not how it goes.
Lennox: Where did you come/ from
Dylan: /I heard singing. Was Mr Robin/ here
Lennox: /I wasn’t singing. And he’s not yours you know.
Dylan: (Laughing, good-natured) Of course he isn’t. He’s a wild bird. Birds, animals, nature. They don’t belong to anyone, do they?
Even this garden. I know Beth would like to think it’s hers… but we’re just looking after it for a while until someone else needs it.
Lennox: I hadn’t thought about it like that. What are you doing here anyway? You’re grounded you know.
Dylan: So are you!
Lennox: Yeah, but that’s not my Mum who’s spotted us.
Lennox: Yeah, but that’s not my Mum who’s spotted us.
Dylan looks behind her in a panic before realising Lennox is winding her up
Lennox: Your face
Dylan: Alright! Some of us are new to this whole rule-breaking thing, okay?
Lennox: That’s true. Good job you have an expert to show you the way.
Dylan: Now you mention it… I need your help
Lennox: Yes?
Dylan: We need to get Cooper into the garden without anyone/ noticing
Lennox: /No
Lennox: /No
Dylan: Why not?
Lennox: I just don’t want to, you know…
Dylan: Oh Lennox. You didn’t mean to/ hurt
Lennox: /Of course not!
