MR . BUNT

37

VOICE OF MR. BUNT From the rain pipe. Ma'am ? MRS. GESHISISH

Eyeing the rain pipe suspiciously. Come out of that rain pipe, drat you. VOICE OF MR . BUNT

Please ma'am , I'd rather not. I'm scared of the rabbits. MRS. GESHISISH

Bending down and trying to peer into the rain pipe.

Scared of the rabbits ! More loudly:

You'll be more scared when I come in and get you.

Are you coming out ? VOICE OF MR. BUNT

Please ma'am , no. MRS. GESHISISH

Well, I'm coming in.

And she has just started to crawl into the rain pipe when - Flash ! the stage is black. She is now in the rain pipe. Of course we can't see anything but we can hear Mrs. Geshisish's voice remarking contemptuously: Well of all dark, dank places ! What are you doing, sitting there all squished up with that gun ? VOICE OF MR. BUNT I'm afraid of the rabbits.
