Annie 2
Scene 1
(The scene is outside Warbuck's mansion the three Policemen in charge of Miss Hannigan, Rooster and Lily are talking far stage left by the only gate out of the grounds. Rooster is in centre stage still wearing his Ralph Mudge outfit so is Lily on stage right. Miss Hannigan is far upstage attempting to win over a policeman)
Miss Hannigan: You know! I always loved those little lambs! Rooster………I mean Danny made me work with him as a family debt!
Policeman: Sure! (imitating Molly) Your days are numbered!
Miss Hannigan: (screams and stomps over to lower stage)If I ever get my hands on those brats!
Rooster: (sliding across to Miss Hannigan) Heya Aggie how you holding out?
Miss Hannigan: (with thunderous rage?) How am I holding out?
Rooster: errrrr………..yeh?
Miss Hannigan: WELL! I've been arrested! Those brats are gonna be living it up! And worst of all that rotten Annie and Warbucks outsmarted us!
Rooster: But apart from that just dandy? (Miss Hannigan gives him a very angry look and he slinks over too Lily)
Lily: (throwing herself into his arms) Oh Rooster! What are we gonna do!
Rooster: (gradually pushing her away) Oh don't worry Lily! You know your Rooster!
Lily: (brightening up) You gotta a plan?
Rooster: Yeh! You don't think I wouldn't have a back up plan would I?
Lily: Then what is it?
Rooster: Well! Warbucks only saw our disguises he didn't get a good look at our faces! I say we nab a couple of servant outfits and pass ourselves off as them!
Lily: (disgusted) Work as servants?
Rooster: Yeh! (sees her expression) Why not?
Lily: I was born to be Adored! Not used like a tool!
Miss Hannigan who has been listening from across stage stomps up behind her and pushes her down) Ha! That's a good one!
Rooster: (helping her up) Oh come on! It won't be for long! Once we've got ourselves in there we can steal all those little treasures he parades about!
Miss Hannigan: Hmm that ain't too bad actually!
Rooster: Yeh this time we can't fail!
