Script Lines Scene 3 Flashcards
Stephen: Gwendolyne, why are fish so smart?
I give up.
Apple: I would spend it all on a cook to make me chicken pies all the day long. I would eat and eat and eat and grow fast and lazy and good for nothing. Gwen?
I shall toss my golden coins in the air and watch them twinkle like stars in the daylight sky. Stephen?
Stephen: Then I will sing as I walk.
That will surely save you.
Magda: Because everyone knows bears do not sing?
Because his singing is so bad, it will drive all the hunters away!
Apple: Lucky to have had one. I never knew my father. None of us did. We were all rejected when people found out that we were different.
But we do have a father-Rodrigo! He is always protecting us from crowd of ugly people when they try to hurt us.
Stephen: Don’t believe a word of it. I have never seen our Rodrigo frightened even a little bit.
I’m tired of traveling so hard. Do you really think we shall find the Sister of the Sun?
Stephen: She lives in the east, does she not?
With her sister, She of the Moon.
Stephen: So if we continue traveling east, we must surely stumble upon her eventually.
I don’t think she’ll like being stumbled upon. My toes always complain when I stumble upon them
Magda: It can’t be long now. We’ve been traveling for days and days and days.
If you can call them days, they are so short. I can’t eat fast enough-you are serving my dinner meat on top of my breakfast eggs.
Toot: ***
They say there are two cottages just over that hill, a light one and a dark.
Magda: The home of the Sisters?
Yes. We have found them at last!
