PETER
No one can catch me! I'm quicker than the birds. I lurk in
the shadows and fly on tailwinds.
BOY
Quiet! Quiet! You'll wake her up! Someone will hear!
(The blankets have fallen off BOY)
PETER
Why, you're slightly a person! You're as weak as a pirate's
chin.
BOY
I don't have much of an appetite.
PETER
I can fix that. We have lots of food. Most of us are rotten
cooks, but TomBoy makes some things half decent. You can
help out, we need another cook.
BOY
What? Don't they serve you food upstairs? The nurses
deliver it to me.
PETER
I don't live here. Just visit for recruiting. Hook'll be
back soon, have to build up my army.
BOY
Hook? Army? Do you think you're Peter Pan? You really are a
nutter.
PETER
(to himself) Why does no one ever believe me?
BOY
Because it's a story. She reads it to me all the time. If
you've heard the others, you've heard this one. Do you
think you're Robinson Crusoe as well?
PETER
Listen, Slightly, that’s my story. It’s about me!
