111
Hey. HEY! LOOK AT ME. OVER HERE! I WANT YOUR ATTENTION.

222
What, what is it?

111
I want attention. I’m lonely.

222
Well, I don’t care. Go bug someone else.

111
Please? HEY, I’M TALKING TO YOU!

333
Quiet down!

111
You quiet down!

222
Oh, oh, I think I’m going to fart…wait for it…nevermind.

111
Nobody cares about me…
…did you hear what I said? I said nobody cares about me.

444
I’m bored.

111
Me too!

444
Who wants to play a game?

111
Me me me! Mememememe!

444
Ok. I’ve invented a new game. It’s called “rock war.” I have a pile of rocks, you can have this piece of fruit, and I’ll throw rocks at you until you give it back to me.

444 throws a piece of fruit at 111.

111
I don’t want to play this game-

444 starts throwing rocks at 111

111
Ow! OW! STOP IT! KNOCK IT OFF!

444
GIMME BACK MY FRUIT!

111 starts throwing rocks at 444, one of which hits 333.

222
KNOCK IT OFF!

333
DID YOU THROW THIS AT ME? WHY DID YOU THROW THIS AT ME?

333 throws the rock back at 111. 111 begins to cry.

333
QUIET DOWN!

444
Gimme my fruit back!

111 is still crying. 444 keeps throwing rocks.

222
Why do I itch all over?

111 finally throws the fruit back. 444 keeps throwing rocks.

444
I WIN! I WIN I WIN! IWINIWINIWINIWIN!

111
STOP! OW! STOP, YOU WON!

333
Both of you CUT IT OUT!

They stop. 444 eats the fruit. 111 nurses many wounds.

333
Oh, what…AWW WHAT IS THAT SMELL?

222
sorry.

333
AWW! THAT SMELLS AWFUL!

444
Ewww….

444 spits out all the fruit.

333
How do we get out of here?

111
we cant.
