BEARDBEARD: Thank yer
PETE: Well what's your name, lady woman girl?
WENDY: My name is WENDY, and I’ll be taking my purse back, thank you.
(She takes the bag back, to the bewilderment of the pirates)
BEARDBEARD: wh- You’re not su’possed to do that! That’s ours! We stole it!
(PETE and Billy exchange confused looks)
WENDY: and I stole it back.
(she begins to walk offstage, and Billy and PETE go to restrain her. They start to grab her--)
BEARDBEARD: BOYS! Remember the Second rule of piratism!
Billy and PETE: (look down at their feet dejectedly) Never lay your hands on an innocent person without direct, explicit consent.
BEARDBEARD: Aye! So ask permission first.
Billy: (to WENDY) May we stop you from walking off, miss? please?
WENDY: (looks at them with pity) *sighs* you guys aren’t very good pirates, are you?
PETE: What do you mean? We’re named after a cookie, so at least we’re scary.
WENDY: (looks generally confused) here, let me show you.
(She grabs PETE’s sword and swings it in his general direction)
WENDY: (In a pirate accent) Argh! Gimme all yer money if ye want to see another day!
PETE: yB- but you didn’t say please!
WENDY: That’s right! So if ye don’t give me yer money, your head will come off!
Billy: Would ye really do that?
WENDY: (Aims sword at him) Try me.
BeardBeard: Wow! She´s good.
WENDY: ARGH! DON'T YE SPEAK WITHOUT BEING SPOKEN TO, YA LOUSY OLD GIT!
(Spits on ground)
PETE: Hey!!! That’s not sanitary!
BeardBeard: (looking at ground) yes, Ma’am. Sorry, Ma’am.
WENDY: Now, I recall asking for yer money! All of Ye!
Billy: Here, take me gold. Please leave me, be, devil woman!
(Gives her a bag of pirate booty)
