MR. BUNT ANNIE

Besides, there are lots of things besides maple sugar in the Maple Tree. DABS

What, for instance ? ANNIE

Well, all the fairies live there, and they have a big house. DABS

What - in the Maple Tree ? ANNIE

No. In the roots of the Maple Tree ; but, of course, he is out most of the time, hunting. DABS

Can he shoot straight ? ANNIE

He never misses. DABS

I bet yer I can shoot better'n he can. ANNIE

We are not making any comparisons. Please be still. You're disturbing baby Bunting. Humming. Bye baby Bunting DABS

Finishing his oatmeal inquires casually: Tell me some more about him. ANNIE

Mr. Bunt ?
