RUSSELL
"Good afternoon. My name is Russell. And I am a Wilderness Explorer in Tribe 54, Sweatlodge 12. Are you in need of any assistance today, sir?"
CARL
No.
RUSSELL
I could help you cross the street.
CARL
No.
RUSSELL
I could help you cross your yard.
CARL
No.
RUSSELL
I could help you cross your... porch?
CARL
No.
RUSSELL
Well, I gotta help you cross something.
CARL
Uh, no. I'm doing fine.
RUSSELL
"Good afternoon. My name is Russell."
CARL
Uh... kid...
RUSSELL
“And I am a Wilderness Explorer in Tribe 54, Sweatlodge 12."
CARL
Kid. KID!!
RUSSELL
"Are you in need of any assistance today Sir?"
CARL
Thank you, but I don't need any help!
RUSSELL
Ow.
CARL
Proceed.
RUSSELL
"Good afternoon. My-"
CARL
But skip to the end!
RUSSELL
See these? These are my Wilderness Explorer badges. You may notice one is missing. It's my Assisting the Elderly badge. If I get it I will become a Senior Wilderness Explorer!
RUSSELL
"The wilderness must be explored! CAW-CAW! RAAAR!"
It's gonna be great! There's a big ceremony, and all the dads come, and they pin on our badges...
CARL
So you want to assist an old person?
RUSSELL
Yep! Then I will be a Senior Wilderness Explorer!
Carl leans in close to Russell.
CARL
You ever heard of a snipe?
RUSSELL
Snipe?
CARL
Bird. Beady eyes. Every night it sneaks in my yard and gobbles my poor azaleas. I'm elderly and infirm. I can't catch it. If only someone could help me...
RUSSELL
Me! Me! I'll do it!
CARL
Oh, I don't know, it's awfully crafty. You'd have to clap your hands three times to lure it in.
RUSSELL
I'll find it, Mr. Fredricksen!
CARL
I think its burrow is two blocks down. If you go past --
RUSSELL
Two blocks down! Got it! Sniiiipe! Here Snipey Snipey...
