Oobi: New Friend!

(Fade into a park; Grampu and Oobi enter from the left; Grampu is seen carrying a picnic basket while Oobi is carrying a ball; they both set their things down; Grampu sighs)

Oobi: *to the viewer* Oh, hi. Park.

(Grampu looks at the viewer, nods, points, then smiles; he opens the picnic basket and sets the table)

Oobi: Oobi, Kako play. (He starts looking around) Kako? Kako! Huh, Kako not here.

Grampu: Huh? Oh, eh-heh, soon.

Oobi: *sadly* Kako soon.

[He picks up his ball and bounces it; Grampu continues setting the table]

Oobi: Bounce. Bounce. Bounce. Bounce. Bounce.

[A dinging sound plays; Oobi looks at the viewer and points at them]

Oobi: Hey, Oobi bounce. You bounce. You bounce.

[He picks the ball up and bounces it some more]

Oobi and the Children: Bounce. Bounce. Bounce. Bounce. Bounce.

[Oobi stops bouncing the ball]

Oobi: Yeah, you bounce.

[He looks at the ball and rests his head on it, then rolls the ball]

Oobi: *bored* Grampu?

Grampu: Hmm?

Oobi: Oobi bored.

'''Grampu: Oh, uh...

[He scratches the side of his head and looks around; he looks to the left and gasps]

Grampu: Ooh. Oobi.

Oobi: Hmm?

Grampu: New friend?

Oobi: New friend? Oh.

[Cut to Frieda looking at her kickball; she looks around then back at her ball]

Oobi: Oh. Mmm...

Grampu: Play?

Oobi: Play? Hmm. Uh-uh. Oobi play alone.

[He picks up his ball and goes to the left; Grampu again goes back to setting the table while humming]

[Wipe to the next scene; Oobi is seen moving the ball with his finger; he sighs; Frieda looks at him shyly; Oobi looks at her and they both quickly look away; they look at each other again and quickly look away; Frieda nervously chuckles]

Frieda: Hi.

Oobi: Oh, uh, hi.

Frieda: Frieda.

Oobi: Oh.

Frieda: [laughs] Name?

Oobi: Oh. Heh-heh. Oobi.

Frieda: Oobi. Huh. Hi, Oobi!

Oobi: Hi, Frieda.

Frieda: Frieda, Oobi play?

Oobi: Oobi, Frieda play.

[Short pause]

Frieda & Oobi: Ball!

[They laugh]

Frieda: Kickball! Frieda, Oobi kick ball.

['She gets behind her kickball]

Frieda: Frieda kick.

[She does so; Oobi catches it]

Frieda: Oobi.

Oobi: Hmm?

Frieda: Kick!

[Oobi tries to kick, but can't]
