Part 67 (1/2)

Oh, look at your shadow!

[_Mlle. Perrault turns and sees her shadow on the wall._

I can make a bigger one than that.

MARY

Oh, come on, ma'mselle, let's all make shadows.

[_The three of them stand in front of the wall._

JOHN III

Boy, you come, too.

MLLE. PERRAULT

Come, boy.

[_Jonathan joins them standing so that his deformity doesn't show in the shadow._

Now, let's dance--Give me your hand--so.

[_The four dance, while Mlle. Perrault hums ”All on a Summer's Day.” They are having a very good time when Susan and Albert enter._

_Jonathan is a little conscious of Susan and Albert, and he manages to make several awkward moves._

MLLE. PERRAULT

Now, let's make everybody's shadow dance by itself.

MARY

Oh, come on.

JOHN III

You first, Mlle.

MARY

It's your turn, Mlle.

[_Mlle. Perrault stands before the wall and makes a very lovely shadow._

John, you do it now.

JOHN III

I won't. I'm going to be next to last.... He's going to be last.
