The Berenstain Bears, Season 2

[As Lizzy teaches the alphabet to the pretend class, the pretend school pointer Lizzy has is revealed to be a stick or twig. Echoed from the book, Lizzy she had a pointer stick in one hand and a piece of chalk in the other.]

Lizzy:
Please be seated Sister (and class). It is time for your lessons. First, I am going to teach you the alphabet. The first letter of the alphabet is "A".

[Lizzy --with the piece of chalk in the right hand-- writes a capital "A" on the pretend chalk board. That is, as she --in the left hand-- holds the pointer stick. But before she can ask the class if any of them know what the second letter of the alphabet is, Sister --pretending to be one of her "pretend students"-- interrupts Lizzy --who is the "pretend teacher"-- and wants to have the pointer and be the teacher.]

Sister Bear:
Now just a minute! Who on Earth said that you were going to be the teacher?! When I play school, I'm the teacher! And not only that! I already know my ABC's!

Lizzy:
[to Sister] Sister Bear!? If you do not sit down this very minute, I'm going to keep you after school!

Sister Bear:
Is that so? [poking with her finger on Lizzy's belly] Well, if you do not give me that pointer, I am going to keep you after school!

Lizzy:
OH NO YOU ARE NOT!

Sister Bear:
OH YES, I AM!

[Sister grabs the pointer from Lizzy. They both wrestle for the pointer stick. All of a sudden, the stick snaps in half. Then the scene turns to Sister and Lizzy. And they each have a half of the stick --as Sister had broken it]

Lizzy:
NOW LOOK WHAT YOU HAVE DONE! YOU BROKE MY POINTER!

[That is what Lizzy says to Sister after Sister broke and totaled her pointer. In fact, Sister broke --and totaled-- it beyond repair.]

Sister Bear:
HERE! KEEP YOUR OLD POINTER! (HERE IS YOUR DOPEY POINTER BACK!)

[Sister throws the pointer stick down in front of Lizzy's feet.]

Sister Bear:
I AM NEVER GOING TO PLAY WITH YOU AGAIN!
