Audition Central: Magic Tree House: The Knight at Dawn KIDS
Script: Squinty
SQUINTY
It's a grand feast the Duke is pitching for the Black Knight, ain't it?
MUSTACHE
Yeah, just listen to 'em in there& laughing& with their bellies all filled up with beef and ale.
RED
While we starve out here keeping their castle free of the riff-raff.
SQUINTY
Yeah, the riff-raff. What's riff-raff?
RED
You know, the plebes.
(SQUINTY, squints, confused)
The proletariat.
(SQUINTY squints some more)
The hoi polloi.
(SQUINTY still not getting it)
The commoners, you dunce!
SQUINTY
Ohhhh& you mean folks like us!
MUSTACHE
Ironic, ain't it? Using folks like us to keep out folks like us?
RED
Well, mark me words, I ain't going to be a commoner the rest of me life.
SQUINTY
What are you going to be, Red?
RED
A knight, what else? I may not be of noble blood, but I have me suspicions that sort of thing won't matter to the Black Knight.
MUSTACHE
Once he gets here and gets a load of Red, he'll see he's got more valor in his little finger than all of the Duke's wimpy pages and squires put together.
