POPPY: So all we have left are the lions.
AHUNI: Oh! Then this could come in handy. (pulls out a whip)
JAY: Whoa, seriously, a whip? Finally, a little danger!
(Jay takes the whip and hands her some money.)
DAISY: Thanks, Ahuni.
AHUNI: You are very welcome. Good luck!
(The game players walk back to center stage.)
POPPY: What are we supposed to do with this?!
JAY: Fight the lions, I guess.
(Abdi has walked up behind Jay. As Jay is about to swing the whip,
Abdi grabs his arm.)
ABDI: Careful, my friend. That could be dangerous.
JAY: That's what I'm hoping!
ALL: Hey, Abdi.
EMMA: Abdi, I think we're stuck again. Maybe you can help.
DAISY: Wait a minute, I think I've got this … duh … the lions!
POPPY: What?!
DAISY: Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego … the Fiery Furnace. That
story is in the book of Daniel … so is the writing on the wall. If
we're talking about lions, it has to be Daniel in the Lions' Den.
Hang on, guys, I'll be right back.
(Daisy runs off stage, as Herald enters to center stage.)
JAY: (calling after Daisy, holding up the whip) Wait, what?! You can't
just run off when it gets a little dangerous!
ABDI: (pointing out Herald) Look, my friends … and listen.
