DWARF
It’s awfully funny and yet it’s true When the children came the flowers came too.
GIANT
Go and find him and tell him all the children can come back and play with him.
DWARF

GIANT
[Taking up the sign.]
Nicky, I’m going to burn this sign up.
DWARF
[Pulling it away from Giant.]
No, no. Give it to me. I can fix it so that when they see it, they’ll come back.
[Dwarf takes the brush and paints letters around the ETT on the sign making it read PETTED.]
