SCRIPT:
(Rabbit hops in the forest. He sees a silver coin on the ground and picks it up)
RABBIT: This is my lucky day!. What should I buy?. Hmmm, I have to think. I can’t buy a piece of bread, or candies, or cookies, because if I do, I will eat them and then I will have nothing. No food, and no money. Let me see. What can I do? (He keeps thinking). I know what to do! I’ll buy a guitar!.
(He puts the silver coin in his pocket and walks to the store)
CLERK: Hello Mr. Rabbit. Are you looking for something special?.
RABBIT: Yes. I want to buy a guitar.
CLERK: A guitar?. I didn’t know you could play the guitar.
RABBIT: Oh, yes I do, yes, sir!.
CLERK: (takes a guitar and gives it to the Rabbit) This is the best one I have. But I must tell you…it’s very expensive. (Rabbit takes the guitar. He takes out the silver coin from his pocket and gives it to him) Where did you get this? . Oh, never mind. Enjoy your new guitar!. (He puts the silver coin in his pocket)
RABBIT: Thank you, I will.
(Rabbit leaves the store. He walks to the forest. He sits on a rock and starts to play the guitar. The Squirrel, the Hare, the Deer, the Skunk and the Fox approach him)
SQUIRREL: Oh, what a beautiful song!.
HARE: Shhh, be quiet!.
DEER: Rabbit, where did you get the guitar?.
FOX: I didn’t know you could play the guitar.
RABBIT: (stops playing the guitar) Did you like it?.
FOX: Yes, we all did.
SKUNK: Rabbit, did you know that I can also play the guitar?. Let me show you. Give me your guitar.
RABBIT: No, sorry, but I won’t.
SKUNK: Why not?.
RABBIT: Because you can steal it from me.
SKUNK: Steal it from you.? Why would I?.
RABBIT: Because you might like it so much, that probably you will not give it back to me.
SKUNK: You hurt my feelings, Rabbit. But I swear I will not steal it from you.
RABBIT: Very well, but just for a few minutes.
(Rabbit gives the guitar to the Skunk. Skunk starts playing the guitar)
DEER: Not bad. Not bad.
SQUIRREL: What’s the name of that song?.
HARE: It’s called “I Did It My Way”.
RABBIT: Yeah, yeah, whatever you say. It’s enough, give it to me now.
SKUNK: Just let me play one more song.
RABBIT: I have to go. Give it to me, Skunk.
SKUNK: No, I will not give it back to you.
RABBIT: What?.
SKUNK: You gave it to me. Don’t you remember?.
RABBIT: That is not true!. I never gave you my guitar!.
SKUNK: Yes, you did. You told me to keep it.
DEER: You’re lying, Skunk.
HARE: Give it to him.
(Rabbit cries)
SQUIRREL: Don’t cry, Rabbit. Soon you will have your guitar.
FOX: Right, Skunk?.
SKUNK: No!. I want to keep playing the guitar. Where should I sit?.
(Squirrel, Deer, Hare, and Fox look at each other and smile)
HARE: That is a good place to sit, Skunk.
SKUNK: Where?
FOX: Over there. Look!.
SKUNK: You’re right.
(Skunk sits on the ground near an ant house. He starts to play the guitar)
DEER: You play so beautifully!.
(Some ants start to bite Skunk)
SKUNK: Take the guitar, Fox!.
FOX: What’s wrong?.
SKUNK: No!. No!. I hate ants!.
(Skunks rolls on the ground frantically. He stands up and runs away)
SQUIRREL, HARE, DEER, SKUNK, FOX: Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Good bye, Skunk!.
(Fox gives the guitar to Rabbit)
FOX: Play another song, please, Rabbit.
RABBIT: Sure, my friends!.
