Act 3 - Scene A (Pog)
Act 3 - Scene A (Pog)
Gray: *shakes off the people dragging him* Get off me!
Darn it, old man! I don’t care about your mission of world
domination, leave me out of this!
Bookman: *laughs villainously* Oh, you’re part of this, Gray. You and the
people who live like you are why I exist. You aren’t leaving this
world until you really listen to me.
Gray: You’re really convinced that a story for kids can change my
worldview, huh? Good luck with that.
Bookman: Positive. Ah, this makes a good entrée. Let’s begin the show, shall
we? *flips to a page*
TWK: *enters stage L and sings* Baa, baa, black sheep, have you any
wool?
Black *enters, following TWK and sings* Yes, sir! Yes, sir! Three bags
Sheep (BS): full. One for the master and one for the dame, one for the little boy
who lives down the lane.
TWK: *sings* Baa, baa, black sheep, have you any wool?

BS: *sings* Yes, sir! Yes, sir! Three bags full. *looks at Bookman, eyes
widen* Oh, Bookman! It’s been so lo-o-ong, sir.
TWK: Truly, my good friend! That is why I’ve asked this helpful sheep to
provide warmth to the people with its dark wool. I may have taken
too many, I’m afraid, but no matter! The people are happy.
Gray: You say it’s wool for the people? Hah, as if I’d believe such a lie!
History says that people prospered because of the wool trade, and
like the greedy king you are, you took advantage of it!
TWK: *suppressing his anger* Watch your tongue, boy. You might speak
words you might regret.
Gray: Why would I regret telling the truth? You are no king. You are a
thief!
TWK:
*unsheaths sword* That’s it, Bookman! I will punish this truant
you’ve brought upon my land—
Bookman:
Not on my watch! *flips page over*
TWK:
*jerks and unwillingly leaves stage R* What’s happening to me?!
Why isn’t my body listening to me? Get back here, you little—
BS:
*waves goodbye, following TWK* Bye, baa-a-a-a-a!
Gray:
*gulps and lets out a sigh of relief* I didn’t know that I can get
attacked in this world!
