Corduroy

Lisa:
Why did Kit not chase after Rosetta?

Corduroy:
Uh-oh.

[Rosetta --about the lie-- realizes she was tricked and blamed.]

Rosetta:
And what is this?! (None of this was Kit and I!) That cat, he NEVER chases me!

[Corduroy was lying when he said that Kit and Rosetta made the mess in the linen room even though it was him and Buckaroo. He and Buckaroo were playing in it, then he fibbed about it. Therefore, Rosetta is telling the truth; really it was not her. Lisa --on the other hand-- believes Rosetta when Rosetta says it was not her and Kit who made the mess. But she becomes concerned about Corduroy's lie.]

Lisa:
[confused] I don't get it. Corduroy told me. And...!

[Lisa looks at Corduroy. She knows that he was lying even though it was him and Buckaroo who made that mess in the linen room.]

Lisa:
[turns to Corduroy] Corduroy...?!

Corduroy:
[buries his face in his paws] I lied, Lisa! I did it. I messed up the closet!

Buckaroo:
I was there too.

Corduroy:
But it was my idea to lie, not Buckaroo's.

[It turns out that the only person who was telling the truth was Rosetta.]

Rosetta:
[to Lisa when she told her she was not in the linen room with Corduroy and Buckaroo] Well, I was not there (in the first place)! And I did not make any mess!

[Rosetta turns to Corduroy and Buckaroo after Corduroy lied about her making the mess and after she was tricked and blamed.]

Rosetta:
[to Corduroy] Shame on you!

[Rosetta wheels herself away. She was telling the truth. But she gets away with it because it wasn't her who made the mess. Corduroy buries his face in his paws again. Lisa walks to Corduroy who is feeling quite guilty.]

Lisa:
[takes Corduroy's paws off his eyes then has a word with Corduroy when he didn't tell the truth in the first place] Why didn't you tell me the truth when I asked?

[Soon Lisa comforts Corduroy.]

Corduroy:
[sadly] I was scared you'd get mad at me.

Lisa:
But you made me think it was all Kit's fault, and that wasn't right. Things get worse if you don't tell the truth.

Corduroy:
[apologizing to Lisa about the lie he told] I'm sorry, Lisa.

Lisa:
You must be saying sorry to Kit, not me.
