SCRIPT:

SCENE I – IN THE FOREST

(Teen Wolf hides behind a tree in the forest.  The Man approaches and sees him)

TEEN WOLF: Psst… psst… hey you, over here.

(The Man looks in both directions.  He sees the wolf)

MAN: Who me?

TEEN WOLF: Yes, you.  Did you see her?

MAN: Who?.

TEEN WOLF: You know…that little girl… the one with the red hooded cape.

MAN: No, I haven’t seen anybody.

TEEN WOLF: Are you sure?  Do you think it’s safe for me to get out?

(The Man turns around to see if someone is near)

MAN: Sure, there’s no one here.

TEEN WOLF: Good.

(Teen Wolf gets out from behind the tree)

MAN: Why are you so afraid?

TEEN WOLF: It’s a long story.

MAN: I have time.   Come, let’s sit over here and tell me what is bothering you. (They sit under a tree) Do you want to drink some water?.

TEEN WOLF: No, I’m fine.

(The Man takes out a bottle of water from a bag and drinks some)

MAN: So?

TEEN WOLF: Do you see this place?

MAN: Yes, it’s beautiful.

TEEN WOLF: Well, this forest used to be my home!  I used to live here, and I liked it so much. I always tried to keep it clean.

MAN:  I don’t see anything wrong with this place. It looks really neat!

TEEN WOLF: One beautiful sunny day, while I was picking up all the trash left by some people, I heard some footsteps, just like when you were coming a short while ago.

MAN: And what happened?

TEEN WOLF: I hid behind a tree.  Then I saw a little girl coming.  Oh, she looked like a very nice girl. I mean, just like an angel.  She was wearing a pretty blue dress and a red hooded cape.  I think she didn’t want anybody to see her.

MAN: Why do you say that?   Was she acting weird?

TEEN WOLF: Because she was also covering her head.  Anyway, she seemed like a very happy girl.

MAN: Do you mean that she was not happy?

TEEN WOLF: Can you please let me finish?

MAN: Okay, go on!

TEEN WOLF: Well, as I told you before this was my home, and I tried to keep it nice and clean.  I also took care of the trees, you know, I watered them, and even the flowers.  Oh, my beautiful flowers!

MAN: Hmmm, keep going.

TEEN WOLF: And do you know what she did?  She took my flowers away!  I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw her putting my flowers, because they were my flowers you know, putting them in a basket!.

MAN: Oh, you must have felt terrible!

TEEN WOLF: I did!  I mean, she didn’t even ask for permission to cut the flowers.  The flowers didn’t belong to her!

MAN: Well, the flowers weren’t yours, either.

TEEN WOLF: This was my forest, my home, my flowers!

MAN: If you say so.  Anyway, what did you do about it?

TEEN WOLF: Naturally I had to investigate.  I asked her who she was, where she came from, and where was she going.

MAN: What for?

TEEN WOLF: Because!

MAN: And what did she say?

TEEN WOLF: She didn’t say anything.   She just started to sing and dance.  She looked so ridiculous,  jumping here, jumping there!

MAN: So?

TEEN WOLF: Well, I had to find out everything I could about her.

MAN: I don’t understand why that was so important to you.  Tell me!.

TEEN WOLF: Just because…let me finish.  Finally, she said that she was going to see her grandmother.  Then I asked her about the flowers, and she said her grandmother was sick and the flowers will cheer her up. At first, I thought she was kind and honest.  After all, she seemed like a nice girl, but then … do you know what she did?.

MAN: No, what did she do?

TEEN WOLF: She saw a little squirrel on top of that tree over there, she picked up a stone and threw it at the hopeless little animal.  I was so angry!  This is where all the animals live.  This is their home.  Do you know what I mean?   Do you?

MAN: Yes, I can see that you are concerned about animals, too.

TEEN WOLF: I decided to teach her a lesson.  I mean, she can not mess with the forest.  She can not come into my forest take my flowers away and mistreat the animals that live here. So, as soon as she left, I went to see her grandmother.  I mean, she needed to know what her granddaughter did.

MAN: I can see that.  But still, I think that was not necessary.  Why didn’t you just tell her that it was wrong?

TEEN WOLF: No!  She wouldn’t understand.  I mean, you didn’t see her.  You were not in my shoes!

MAN: You don’t wear shoes.

TEEN WOLF: Well, that day I was wearing my favorite shoes, the ones that my…

(The Man interrupts the Teen Wolf)

MAN: Stop it and get to the point!  What happened next?  Did you go to see her grandmother?

TEEN WOLF: Of course I did!

MAN: How could you!

TEEN WOLF: I mean, somebody had to tell her about her granddaughter!

MAN: What did you tell her?

TEEN WOLF: I told her about the flowers and the little animal… and she agreed with me.  Her granddaughter needed a lesson!  So we made a plan.  She said she was going to hide inside the closet.  She even told me to put on her clothes, because we were going to scare her.

MAN: For what you just told me before, I don’t think she was the kind of girl who gets scared.

TEEN WOLF: And you’re right!  As soon as she entered the room, she insulted me.  At first, I tried to be nice, but then she said that I had big ears.  Just tell me how would you feel if someone comes and tells you that you have big ears.

MAN: But, it’s true.  You have big ears!

TEEN WOLF: Hmmm, anyway, I told her that I could hear her better with my big ears.  Then she said my eyes were very big, so I replied that I could see her better with my big eyes.  But what made me angry, was when she told me that I had big teeth!

MAN: I think there was no reason to get angry.  She was just a little innocent girl!

TEEN WOLF: It’s because you don’t know me.  I don’t like having big teeth. I even went to see a dentist but he couldn’t do anything to fix them.  I have ugly teeth!  So, I couldn’t control myself, I got out of bed and I told her that I was going to eat her with my big ugly teeth!.

MAN: But you didn’t mean it.

TEEN WOLF: Of course, I didn’t mean it!  I was angry!  I chased her around the room, and she started yelling, and yelling, and yelling.

MAN: I understand how you felt.  First the flowers, then the squirrel, then your ears, then your eyes, and then your teeth!

TEEN WOLF: Right!  I mean, I was really upset.  So, I tried to calm her down, but the more I tried, the more she yelled.  Suddenly, the door opened, and a woodcutter came inside with a big ax!

MAN: Oh, that must have been scary!

TEEN WOLF: It was, indeed.  I got scared, so I jumped through the window and escaped.  And now, everybody thinks that I am a bad wolf, but that is not true.  I mean, she started all this!

MAN: I know, and I believe you.

(They hear someone singing)

TEEN WOLF: Did you hear that?

MAN: Yes, I did.

(They hear footsteps approaching)

TEEN WOLF: It’s her!  Oh, I will never forget that song.  It’s the same she was singing that awful day. (He stands up and hides behind a tree)

MAN: Wait!  Where are you going?

TEEN WOLF: Stay away from her.  That’s the only advice I can give you.  I mean, she’s….

(Little Red Riding Hood approaches)

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Did you find him?

(The Man grabs the wolf.  Teen Wolf looks surprised)

TEEN WOLF: What’s happening?

MAN: We were looking for you.

TEEN WOLF: (surprised) You were looking for me? Now that I remember… you’re that woodcutter!.

MAN: That’s right, I am!

(Grandmother approaches)

MAN: Do you recognize him?  Is this the same wolf that came into your house, locked you in the closet, and then tried to eat your daughter?

GRANDMOTHER: Yes, sir. That’s the one!

MAN: You’re coming with us!

(The Man ties Teen Wolf and they start walking)

TEEN WOLF: Where are you taking me?

MAN: Don’t worry, you will be locked in a safe place forever.

TEEN WOLF: No, no!  I was telling you the truth!  You have to believe me!  I’m innocent!  I’m Innocent!

SCENE II –  AT THE WOLF’S CAVE

(The alarm clock rings.  The  Teen Wolf wakes up)

TEEN WOLF: Oh, what a terrible nightmare!  I have to stop eating pork chops before going to bed!

(The Wolf turns off the alarm clock and goes to sleep once again)
