Goodbye Christopher Robin Page #3

but might that be

a distraction?

Alan?

Alan?

DAPHNE:
Alan?

Deeper and deeper into

the dark wood they went.

Oh, they're here.

Oh, where is it?

It's here somewhere.

Alan, where is it?

Where's what?

Ah.

Mummy's here!

Of course Mummy's here.

You're going to live here.

This is your new home.

CHRISTOPHER ROBIN:

Yes. But I didn't know

they were going

to live in it too.

DAPHNE:
(AS EDWARD BEAR)

Well, I say, Billy Moon,

this is an unexpected

pleasure.

Have you come

to see my woods?

Are they really your woods?

Oh, yes. As far as

the eye can see.

Well, a bear does

feel more at home

in the woods amongst

the wild animals.

Are there really

wild animals?

I can't continue

this conversation

till we've been

properly introduced.

I'm Billy Moon

and you're Teddy Bear.

Edward Bear,

if you don't mind.

I don't like that name.

Mummy will help us

think of a new one.

You do know it was me talking,

not the bear?

I was just playing, you see.

Yes. I was just joining in.

DAPHNE:
Of course.

Silly of me.

DAPHNE:
(AS PIGLET)

Do you have room

for one very small piglet?

Yes!

I have some

very quiet friends.

They'll be no trouble.

Do you have

any objection to tigers?

No.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

Say goodnight to Teddy.

Edward. Remember?

Edward. Of course.

God bless Mummy.

God bless Daddy.

God bless Nou.

Amen.

Forgotten someone.

Who?

Keep thinking.

I've made

the study my priority

so that you can

get back to work...

...while the rest

of us unpack

and choose curtain fabrics

and so on.

Your files and notebook...

I'll unpack them.

There's really no need.

I can...

(CHUCKLING) Stop.

Stop.

Look.

Me! I forgot to bless me.

God bless me. Amen.

MRS. PENN:
Madam.

Thank you, Mrs. Penn.

Shh. Daddy's working.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

(SHUSHING)

OLIVE:
Can't get you.

(CHRISTOPHER ROBIN GRUNTS)

Over here!

(LAUGHS)

That was awfully good.

Bit higher!

Come on, higher!

(OLIVE AND CHRISTOPHER ROBIN

LAUGHING)

ALAN:
Hello there!

Mummy said we mustn't talk

to you when you're working.

This isn't that sort of work.

This is proper work.

Come here.

Hold this.

Push down hard.

What is it for?

We're going to have chickens.

We'll need a chicken run.

Somewhere they can move about

and not be eaten by foxes.

Are there real foxes?

All sorts of wild animals

here, I shouldn't wonder.

WOMAN:
(SINGING)

The object of my affection

Can change my complexion

From white to a rosy read

(CHUCKLES)

Anytime he holds my hand

And tells me that he's mine

ALAN:
Oh, Billy.

Okay. All right. Right.

Go, go! You put that back.

OLIVE:
Over here!

ALAN:
Oh! That's it.

ALAN:
All right,

come on! Come on!

Okay, we've got him.
