JEFFREY:(taunting) I'm gonna throw it, right there in the middle of the
street.
You're mean! I never want to play with you again!
JEFFREY:
(hurt, but trying not to show it) Wow. I was just kidding. But now
maybe I really will throw it!
JUMPER:
Uh, oh. This looks like trouble. This is a pretty busy street. We
need to intervene soon.
JEFFREY:
(throwing the doll) Too late! (Pantomiming shooting a basket with the
doll) He shoots! He scores! (doll is thrown offstage)

(In a spotlight, Freezer Burn blows glitter toward the kids; everyone
freezes and the sound of cars stops. Freezer Burn walks offstage,
picks up the doll, and then walks over to "frozen" Jess and leads her
to safety.) Whoa, honey. You've got to be more careful. You could
have really gotten hurt.
(in awe) Where did you come from?
I'm a friend. It looked like you needed a little help.

BURN:
What happened? Is my doll okay?
Yep, here she is. Safe and sound. (Claps once and the street sounds
resume; everyone moves again.)
JEFFREY:
Jess! Wait, what happened?
JESS:
My friend helped save my doll.
JUMPER:
Looks like your doll tore her dress. Do you have any other clothes
for her?
