A bright, sunny day in a city park. Three trees are in the background. A picnic bench is on the front left of the stage. A trashcan sits next to it. Two kids are standing in the front right of the stage. They have a Frisbee, a baseball, and two catcher's mitts at their feet.
BILLY: It's a great day to be at the park! What do you want to play?
GINA: Let's play Frisbee. There are not any dogs around to try to steal it from us.
BILLY: Okay. I'll go over by that tree. (walks toward the back of the stage)
GINA: Catch! (throws Frisbee toward Billy)
(Dog enters, catches Frisbee, and runs away with it.)
GINA: Oh no! Where did he come from?
BILLY: Who knows? We have to catch him now! That's a new Frisbee!
(Billy and Gina run offstage, chasing the dog.)
