MR . BUNT VOICE OF MR. BUNT
Why, you are Dabs' invisible playmate, of course. MRS. GESHISISH
Outraged.
Invisible playmate indeed ! I'm his old -fashioned fairy -godmother, that's what I am. The kind
that gives everybody three wishes that all come true, and in the end nobody gets anything. That's simple. Anybody can understand that. Three wishes and there you are .
But this invis
able playmate stuff - that's too complicated for me. Why you know, in my time, we fairies amounted to something. We ran things. But
now -a -days every child has its own particular brand of fairy. Has it for as long as it pleases and then forgets it. Do you call that life ? I call it downright selfishness. I'd like to talk to
whoever started this invisible fairy stuff. VOICE OF MR. BUNT
Perhaps you'd better see the Board of Directors about it. MRS. GESHISISH
The Board of Directors.
What is the child talk
ing about. Wait till I get in that rain pipe! Very dramatically she raises her finger, saying with great emphasis: I wish I were in the rain pipe.
Flash ! and the stage is black once more .
