MAKI

What shall we do?

MONKITO

You can stop crying, for a start.

ELPHI

You heard the news, children. The river has cut all communications. We are completely isolated!

BINDU

Someone has to cross the river and get some help.

ELPHI

You are right, Bindu, I‘ll go!

MAKI

But who would take care of us?

MONKITO

I will go! I can move from branch to branch over the trees.

ELPHI

No, Monkito, you will not!

BINDU

I can swim, Miss Elphi!

ELPHI

No! The water is too strong!

MAKI

Buaa, the road looks like a river!

FROGGI

Croac, I can help

BINDU  

Look at this, even the frogs are getting out of the water.

MAKI  

You are too small!

FROGGI

But I can leap from stone to stone.

MONKITO

You will never make it!

FROGGI

I can swim underwater.

ELPHI

Then go! But please be very careful!
