Scene Three: Foster Garden

Question 1

MAN IN YELLOW SUIT: Good morning!

Answer 1

It is now! The Fair is here!

Question 2

MAN IN YELLOW SUIT: Well, now. Aren’t you wise beyond your… eleven years, is it?

Answer 2

How did you guess?

Question 3

MAN IN YELLOW SUIT: To you, perhaps. Now, I don’t suppose you’ve noticed anyone strange around here recently…

Answer 3

What do you mean, strange?

Question 4

NANA: Where do you find a suit that color - and why would you buy it?

Answer 4

Don’t you see, Mother? It’s a sign! We could go to the Fair, like we used to!

Question 5

MOTHER: No - and that’s the final word.

Answer 5

But Mother -

Question 6

MOTHER: No more buts. The world can be a dangerous place, Winifred, and it is my job, alone, to protect you.

Answer 6

From what? Having fun?

Question 7

MOTHER: That is enough. Now go inside and change your dress - and your attitude.

Answer 7

No! I hate you, and I hate your rules!

Question 8

NANA: Betsy, let her be. She’ll come in when she’s ready to apologize.

Answer 8

Toad, you’re back! Why should I apologize? I don’t want to just be “good.” I want to be daring. I wish I could go with you.

Toad, wait for me!
