SCENE 1 Gina is inside the Day Care Center with Baby Bear, Stinky, Zoe and a few kids. Today, a special guest is coming to the day care center. The special guest is Stinky and he’ll be teaching everyone about plants! Stinky says that he can’t teach anything. He’s just a stinkweed. Gina says that everyone will ask him questions about plants and Stinky will try to answer them. Baby Bear has one question: “What is it like being a plant?” Stinky makes a little response and Baby Bear asks if that’s it. Stinky knew he’ll do a horrible job answering questions. Zoe has a question now: “How do plants grow?” Stinky knows the answer to this question. But he doesn’t want to tell them. He wants to show them! Stinky whispers to Gina what he needs to show everyone how plants grow.
