	SCENE 2	Tom finds yet another ET word - PET, which is found on a sign advertising a pet show today. Several of the kids begin to arrive with their pets, but Oscar doesn't think the pet show is any fun. Susan and Tom admire some of the animals, including a dog, a pair of lovebirds, a turtle (which Oscar thinks would make a good paperweight) and a kitten.
