Mama, why do things have to change?
If things didn't change, you'd still be a baby like Jack. Everything changes.
[The sound of the Henry's bus horn honks]
Except for the school bus, that's always the same.

Mama, why do things have to change?

[The sound of the Henry's bus horn honks]
Except for the school bus, that's always the same.
[talking about the Gift Gallery] I just want to get something special for Yoko's birthday. They have very nice things there.
The things there cost a lot of money.
That's okay.
Well, not really, Nora. This week we needed to get you a soccer uniform, needed to get you a new wheel for your bike, and Jack needed a new stroller. But now, I still have to buy our groceries.
So, we can't go the gift gallery?
I am sorry. But we do not have the extra money sugar snap.
Did you get your (butterscotch) pudding from the refrigerator?
I don't see it.
It's in the green container.
Found it.
[Nora gets her "butterscotch pudding" which is in the green container from the fridge. Not seeing that it is Jack's baby food, she thinks it's her "pudding" for dessert.]
Where's Jack?
I'm not drawing him on my poster.
Why not?
I'm tired of having a little brother. He's always crying or making a mess or breaking things. Isn't he?
[At this, Nora has mentioned Jack for the third time.]
[wishing he had a brother or sister] I think it would be fun to have a little brother (or sister).
That's because you don't have one.
[Ruby --from offscreen-- sees Samantha --Timothy's mom-- at the front door ready to pick up Timothy. Timothy is unaware that his mom is here. And in this scene, Samantha and Ruby --from offscreen-- approaches the kids Timothy and Nora. Timothy is still unaware until Ruby --Nora's mom-- says his mom --Samantha-- is here to pick him up. And after Ruby --from offscreen-- has met Timothy's mother --who is ready to pick up Timothy from Nora's house-- she tells him that his mom is here to pick him up. Ruby walks Samantha over to Timothy who is playing with Nora in Nora's living room. And then, Ruby --from offscreen-- says to Timothy...!]
[to Timothy] Your mom is here, Timothy.
[After Jack scribbles on one of Nora's pictures --with one of Nora's crayons-- Nora enters the living room. She finds Jack and gasps.]
[gasps] JACK!
[Nora runs over to Jack. The scene cuts to Jack --who is still scribbling on Nora's picture. That is with a red crayon. He stops scribbling.]
[tries to stay calm, but regards about her picture] Oh, you have ruined my poster!
[Cut back to Jack, Jack --who hears that Nora has blamed him for scribbling on her picture-- cries.]
[crying] (Insert crying noises here)!
[Then back to Nora.]
[calls her mom in] MAMA!
[Ruby --Nora's mom-- comes in.]
What is it, Nora?
Jack scribbled all over my poster!
[sees Nora's picture] Oh dear!
It is ruined!
