SCENE 1 | Maria and Oscar are sitting by the stoop, observing Slimey and his little toothbrush. Maria finds it cute until she realizes that Slimey doesn't have any teeth, and asks Oscar why he has a toothbrush and a cup of water, to which Oscar explains that Slimey is going to brush his teeth. Maria almost rebuts that Oscar doesn't have any teeth either, but Oscar leaves and pops back up with a set of false teeth. |
