A grassy field.

HENRY is cowering in a dirt pit, while BECKETT is hovering over him.

HENRY

Just leave me behind. 

BECKETT

I will never! A true hero never abandons his sidekick.

HENRY

I am not your sidekick.

BECKETT

Then you would be the one out here, but instead, you’re hiding like a baby.

HENRY

I’m not a baby either.

BECKETT

It’s just a little spider. Don’t be scared.

HENRY

That spider was definitely not little. 

BECKETT

It’s smaller than my pinky finger.

HENRY

It was looking at me with evil eyes. It wanted to get me!

BECKETT

You can’t even see its eyes. 

HENRY

Whatever. Can you just go get Mom?

BECKETT

Nope. Only you can save yourself here.

HENRY

Please?

BECKETT

No. There’s going to be spiders whenever we go outside. You have to face it.

Becket tries to pick up the spider. 

HENRY

What are you doing?

BECKETT

I’m showing you that it’s a friend. 

HENRY

Beckett. No. Stop. Put it down now. 

BECKETT

Look! Isn’t it so cute?

HENRY

No. Stop it.

BECKETT

No! You can’t be scared of this forever.

HENRY

Yes I can!

BECKETT

Oh, you can see its eyes! Aww. 

HENRY

Stop! Get it away and I can come out.

BECKETT

No, I have a better idea. 

HENRY

What? No, what are you doing?

Beckett puts the spider down in the dirt pit. 

HENRY (Cont’d)

Ahh! Beckett! Help! 

Henry runs around in the pit but cannot get out.

BECKETT

I’ll only help you if you bring the spider back up to me. 

HENRY

I lost it!

BECKETT

No, I can see it. It’s right there.

HENRY

Please don’t make me do this. 

BECKETT

Do you want to be stuck in there instead? I bet there are so many more spiders in there. 

HENRY

Stop. I’ll do it, just get me out. 

Henry nervously picks up the spider and gives it to Beckett.

BECKETT

Wasn’t that easy?

HENRY

Get me out of here now. 

BECKETT

Okay, okay.

Beckett helps Henry up and out of the dirt pit, and they go off to continue playing.

END OF PLAY.
