Ms. Truesdale: "I think this is going to be a great version of Little Red Riding Hood, and it is your involvement that make the plays here at Barcliffe Academy so special. Thank you." (clapping) "And now, I would like to turn over the next part of our meeting to our parent coordinator, the amazing Maisy Gibbons."
Maisy: "Thank you, Ms. Truesdale. Now, before everyone leaves, we have new copies of the script up here. Tilda and Francis and I went to the rehearsal yesterday, and we were a little troubled by the ending. Killing the wolf. It says the wrong message to our kids. And we believe that animals should only be euthanized as a last resort."
(Lynette laughs.)
Maisy: "Do you find something amusing?"
Lynette: "I'm sorry, I thought you were kidding."
Maisy: "No."
Lynette: "Oh, okay."
Maisy: "So in our version, the wolf is aggressive because he has a thorn in his paw. And the woodsman will take out the thorn, and send Mr. Wolf on his way."
Lynette: "I'm sorry, aren't we doing Little Red Riding Hood?"
Maisy: "Yes."
Lynette: "So then you are aware that the wolf is a bad guy. He eats Little Red's grandma. If you let him go, he's just going to chow down on another defenseless old lady."
Maisy: "I'm sorry, and you are?"
Lynette: "I'm Lynette Scavo. My twins just joined. They're playing oak trees."
Maisy: "Oh, of course. Lynette. Let's see, you are ... signed up to take tickets the night of the show, is that right?"
Lynette: "Yeah."
Maisy: "Well, with all due respect, let's leave the creative suggestions to the mothers who have assumed the heavy lifting, shall we?"
Lynette: "Sure. Whatever."
