E.B. and Guy in “Rain”

[Guy and E.B. are fleeing the giroosters]

E.B.

You must have done something cool in your really long life.

Guy

Not me! My inventions always blow up... (A girooster chomps at E.B. Who is running) ...your mom hates me.... (He continues running) ...and I'm an aspiring Paint Watcher! [slips, stumbles and continues running] See? They are better than me!

E.B.

Oh, there IS no way You're never gonna impress them with that dangerous attitu- [a girooster grabs her from behind] Uh-oh! Um, help?

[The other giroosters stop chasing Guy and head over to E.B.]

Guy

No, here, here! Over here! [the giroosters don't listen] Chew me! Chew me! I'm the least impressive! [the other giroosters snap at E.B., but the one holding her makes it known that she's his alone and the giroosters fight over which one to get to chew first as E.B. Keeps screaming to overcome her fear] Oh-h-h, what gives you the right to judge us anyways? I mean, look at you! [the girooster holding E.B. Who is crying turns his attention to Guy] You haven't even evolved as a species, and you think you're better than us? [the other giroosters start looking at Guy as well] You still live in a shabby nest made of mud and leaves, give people rashes, making them itch, and, phew, who knows what else. And I mean, you seem to have a... a remedial semblance of a social order, but you're hardly civilized. I mean, have you even developed an alphabet?

[The middle girooster's mohawk flops back into a shaggy mane]

E.B.

(Gulps to overcome her fear) Keep doing that!

[The giroosters growl at her to shut up]

Guy

[perplexed] Keep doing what?

E.B.

Whatever that is, keep doing it! Whoa!

[Guy ponders what E.B. just said. The giroosters, holding E.B., close in on her so slowly. Finally it dawns on Guy that she wants him to complain more]

Guy

[to the giroosters] Seriously, what have you done with your lives?! [and... ...BANG! the giroosters flanking the one holding E.B. turn away suddenly before they can take one big bite of E.B.] I mean... ...Huh... ..I hear you're decent bubble blowers. Huh?... (The giroosters brighten up and E.B. Feels a confused bit) ...But honestly, guys... (He gives a giroosters a evil smirk) ..blowing bubbles is no big whoop... [the giroosters all cringe] ..I'd treat her nicely if I were you.....

[The giroosters cringe further]

E.B.

[to the giroosters] Hi.

Guy

[to the giroosters] ...She's the smartest kid I know. A wizard of manipulation....

[E.B., flattered by Guy's comment, gives the giroosters a knowing smirk]

Guy

...And completely self motivated. All the ingredients for a bright, successful future, if channeled properly.... ...or else....

E.B.

Well! That was looking pretty dangerous to me!

[The giroosters let go of E.B.]

Guy

Hand over the beans.
