Hansel and Gretel
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| I'm going to catch you Gretel | No you wont Hansel. You are much too slow. |
| Here I am sweating over a hot stove while you two run around having fun! | But stepmother |
| You should have thought of that before you went frolicking about. | We were just trying to have some fun. |
| To make enough money to feed you ungrateful children. | I'm over here. You're yelling at the laundry. |
| Has she gone? | Yes but you should go and start chopping firewood. |
| Why is she so mean to us? | I dont know but I wish Father had never married her. |
| I miss mother. | I know I do too. It feels like Stepmother is always mad at us. Sometimes I dont feel like I can do anything right. |
| Can you help me find her? | What are you doing? |
| She kicked me and ran away | Im sorry I have not seen your cow Mr. Farmer. |
| Well then maybe youve seen Gertrude? | Who is Gertrude? |
| Im going to be in so much trouble. | I dont know. Do you think we could make more before Stepmother gets back? |
| Make more what? | Father |
| Why do you hate me so? | We didnt |
| I'm very disappointed. | But Father it was an accident. We were going to try to make some more soup before you got home. |
| What is a husband and father to do? | We're sorry Father. |
| Bad children do not get any strudel. | The fruit trees are so far away. We could never walk there, pick apples, and make it back before nightfall. |
| You can come home when they are full. | But Father |
| Comes in for scene 2 | Here Hansel. Take the lantern. |
| Why its not dark yet? | Because I need my hand to be free. |
| What are you doing? | I had a small piece of bread I was saving. I'm dropping breadcrumbs as we walk so we can find our way home. |
| Im so hungry. | I'm hungry too but how else are we going to find our way home? |
| Please can I have some? | No we can eat some apples when we get to the fruit trees. We need to mark our way home. |
| I am tired of it. | Im not trying to be mean I am just older and have more experience. |
| When I never get a chance to try? | Hansel listen its just |
| Im going to be the leader now. | Hansel stop this. You don't even know the way. |
| But I have the lantern and Im in charge. | Fine. If it makes you happy you are in charge. Now get moving. We need to make it to the fruit trees before it gets dark. |
| Food! | Hansel! Stop! |
| I'm hungry! | But you dont know what kind of berries those are! They could be poisonous! |
| Oh my stomach hurts | I tried to warn you. You should never eat something that you dont know what it is. |
| I'll never eat strange berries again | Good, now lets keep going. |
| Uh. Oh. | Well how about that. Which way do we go, Hansel? |
| Ummm | Its going to be dark soon. We need to go. |
| This way. | Are you sure? |
| The fruit trees are this way. | I hope you're right. I don't want to get lost in the forest so close to nightfall. |
| I think we should stop here and rest for a while. | I agree my feet ache from walking for so long. |
| It feels like we've walked for miles and miles. | I don't think we went the right way. |
| I didnt mean to get us lost. | It's okay, Hansel. We learn from our mistakes. I think we should sleep here and in the morning, we can follow the breadcrumbs back and take the other path. |
| Aahh! Who are you? | Who are you? |
| I asked you first. | I suppose you're right. I'm Gretel and this is my brother Hansel. |
| Yup. | Bob the gnome? |
| You don't believe me? | No its just weve never met a gnome before and well Bob just seems like an odd name. |
| I just kept finding more bread. | Oh no. Our breadcrumbs! |
| I thought it was abandoned. | I was dropping the breadcrumbs as we walked so we could find our way home. |
| I know it like the back of my hat. | Do you mean you know the forest like the back of your hand? |
| The least I can do is help you find your way. | That is very kind of you Bob. But it is going to be dark soon and we are both so tired from walking all this way. |
| Gnomes tend to go to bed early | I didn't know gnomes lived in villages. |
| That's a long day | Thank you Betty. Its very nice of you to share with us right Hansel. |
| What brings you children all the way out here? | Our Stepmother sent us as punishment. We have to walk to the grove where the fruit trees grow and pick two bushels of apples to bring home. |
| not to mention her! | Who? |
| Evil Witch! | You mean there's really a witch? |
| Those that cross her path are never seen again. | What does she do to them? |
| Gretel I want to go home. | I know that but we'll never find our way in the dark. |
| I'll divide it up | Thank you all for being so kind. |
| Yes thanks for the food. | It was nice to meet you. |
| Wow this bread is tasty. | It is very good. |
| I could eat this every day. | How do you make it Barry? |
| Secret gnome recipe | Odd I slept comfortably all night but I'm feeling very tired now. |
| I can hardly keep my eyes open. | Barry would it be okay if we took a nap? |
| Wakes up | Hansel wake up. Look at this. |
| We are saved! | What are you doing? |
| There is no saving you now! | I wonder why someone would make their cottage out of gingerbread and candy? |
| To trap you bratty children of course! | Aaaah! The Evil Witch! |
| You are doomed so you might as well accept it. | What do you want from us? |
| Whining to your Father every chance you got. | Wait how would you know. Oh my goodness. |
| What is it Gretel? | Its her. Stepmother. |
| What do we do Gretel? | I dont know. |
| He cannot have gone far. | Barry? You brought us here? |
| Gretel, you get to work freshening the icing on my cottage. | No. I am not helping you. |
| Do what she says Gretel. | Fine |
| Gretel this is the worst thing that has ever happened. | I know |
| He would know what to do | We will figure something out. Be patient. |
| or something. | These gingerbread cookies used to be children just like us! We must get out of here! Barry help me get Hansel out of the cage and we can run away while the Evil Witch is gone. |
| if shes in a bad enough mood. | She said shes not going to eat Hansel until he's plump right? |
| So what? | So if you take longer getting plump we can maybe come up with a plan or something. |
| Usually a week or so. | Then we better get to thinking. |
| how plump you are. | Psst. Barry. |
| What | Spill that bowl over there. |
| Why | To distract her for a second. |
| Clean that up! | Hansel when she comes over hold out this pretzel instead of your finger. |
| Do you have any idea how difficult it is to find pecans this time of year? | Just do it. Trust me. |
| You must need more sweets. | How about some apple strudel? |
| What? | Apple strudel is Hansel's favorite. He cant resist it. |
| But I dont have any apples. | It would not take long to gather some. I could go if you like. |
| I love it. | Exactly. She knows that too. I was trying to get her out of the cottage because I have an idea. |
| Shes thought of everything | Shes over 500 years old? |
| her eyesight has gotten pretty bad. | Maybe we can use that to our advantage. |
| What do you mean? | Well you're stuck in that cage so it will have to be Barry and me. |
| At long last | We can go home to Father! |
| Come children I will help you find your way home. | Oh my goodness its Father! |
| I dont know what made me do that. | It was not your fault Father. The Evil Witch tricked you. She used magic and was going to bake us into gingerbread cookies! |
| never to return | I almost forgot. Look at what I found while trimming the bushes. |
| There are thousands of coins in there! | Barry you should take half of this back to your village. Then the gnomes wont have to work so hard. |
| Lets go home | Yes and remember, never take candy from strangers. |
