Prunella Sees the Light/Transcript
#
Prunella reads for Buster in her crystal ball using a mystic voice.
Prunella: (mystical voice:) The future is unclear. Madame Prunella is weary. Madame Prunella needs candy to revive her psychic power. Buster hands her one M&M. (normal voice:) That’s it?! Madame Prunella's gonna need a little more than that.
Buster: It was a long walk over.

Marina und Prunella learn that the Henry Screever Movie opens on Saturday.
Prunella: We have to do something special.
Marina: Let's read all five books again cover to cover.
Prunella: Marina, it opens in four days. Even I can't read that fast.
Marina: Me neither. I’d get blisters.
Prunella: Oh! I've got it!
Marina: Well?
Prunella: No, I’m not telling. It’s a surprise.
Marina: The Tickling Claw commands you to tell me!
Prunella: No. By the Wheel Of Edam, I swear I shall never confess. I'm using my Hex Of Protection. Marina starts tickling her.
Marina: Hey, you uncrossed your arms. The Hex doesn't work.
Prunella: Yes, it does.

Buster meets Prunella in the supermarket.
Buster: Prunella, please, I have to know if I fail that Math test. Here, I brought you s a box of Buster Clusters. I made them myself.
Prunella: Yuck, I heard about those. They turn your tongue black and give you a rash.

Prunella has made her house “safe” for Marina.
Rubella: Ow! What's this string doing here? I just tripped over it.
Prunella: It's so Marina can find her way to the bathroom.
Rubella: That's ridiculous. She’s not going to need string to find the bathroom.
Prunella: She might. How do you know?
Rubella: Prunella, why don’t you just ask if there's anything special she needs?
Prunella: I can’t. I want the sleepover to be a surprise. Besides, I swore on the Wheel Of Edam I wouldn’t tell.
Rubella: Well, what's more important? Having a good time with your friend or a swear on a piece of cheese?

After a quarrel with Marina, Prunella is crying on her bed. Buster comes up the stairs.
Prunella: Go away!
Buster: Please, Prunella, the test is tomorrow. I have to know my fate. What's the matter?
Prunella: I had a big fight with Marina. I don’t know what I did wrong. I was just trying to be extra considerate, you know, ‘cause she can't see. She got all angry.
Buster: She probably doesn't want you to be extra considerate. I really hated it when kids started treating me differently because I have asthma.
Prunella: I can't just ignore the fact that she's blind.
Buster: Yeah, but you don't have to make such a big deal out of it. Would you like it if someone was always fussing over you?
Prunella: No. She stands up.
Buster: Wait! What about my fortune? Prunella quickly looks into her crystal ball.
Prunella: I see you studying. Studying all day, studying all night! Studying, studying, studying. You'll do fine. Now, if you’ll excuse me. I have a phone call to make.

Marina and Prunella walk home after watching the Henry Skreever Movie.
Prunella: What did you think of the kid playing Henry? I thought he was all wrong.
Marina: Me too. I guess they just don’t see him the way we do. The light turns green and gives an acoustic signal. Arm please. She takes Prunella’s arm and they cross the street.
