Alex: Hey Jared!

 

Jared: What do you
want? (Scornfully)

 

Alex: Do you want to
play?

 

Jared: With you?
Alex Mowar?Alex Laun Mowar?!

 

Alex: Yeahwant to play
baseball with me?

 

Jared: Launny wants to play baseball with me?
Oh ok(bored and

reluctantly)

 

Alex pitches an invisible ball. Jared hits it. A
ball flies up backstage. Alex dives to catch it. He comes up with grass in his
mouth. One piece is stuck between his buckteeth.

Jared: Ha ha ha!

 

Alex: (spits out grass)Putooey!!

 

Jared: (Laughing)Why didnt your momma call you Alex weed-eater

instead?

Alex: starts crying and hiccupping and continues
throughout the

show, but
slows down and is normal by the end.

Ashli and Evette walk up.

 

Jared:
Hi Ashli! Hi Evette! (innocently)

Evette: Hey! Why is Alex crying?

 

Alex: He(hiccup) called(hiccup)
me(hiccup)weed-eaterboo

hoo

 

Ashli: Why did you call him that Jared?

 

Jared: Cause hes just a clumsy little weed-eating
looser.

 

Evette: Jared, that isnt nice.

 

Ashli: Yeah, it isnt nice to judge people by how
they look or act.

 

Evette: James 2 says that we should treat everyone
the same whether

theyre
rich or poor; graceful or clumsy; cool or uncool.

 

Ashli: And God chose the poor, clumsy and uncool people
to live in

his kingdom
because they love God.

 

Evette: The people who
are rich, graceful or cool think theyre better

than everyone else

 

Ashli: but God said to
love your neighbor as yourself.

 

Jared: I never thought of
it that way before. God does love everyone

the way they
are

 

Ashli: God created
everyone and thats why everyone is cool to him.

 

Jared: I feel badwhat should I do?

 

Ashli: Apologize to Alex.

 

Evette: and to God.

 

Jared: Alex, Im really
sorry I called you weed-eater. Ill never judge

anyone
again.

 

Alex: Thats ok. I
forgive you. Do you want to play baseball again?

 

Jared: Sure, but just a
minuteI need to apologize to God first.
