    39 104 BACK TO SCENE The Princess and Lucybird start off. 105 AREA OF THE SIGN as the Princess and Lucybird enter Shot. The Princess is in awe of the sign as they go past. 106 WOODED AREA (GREEN SET) Two uniformed SENTRIES block the path. Instead of the customary lances they carry gleaming blue trombones. As fcho Princess and Lucybird approach the Sentries swing the trombones toward each other and extend the slides, thereby blocking the path. FIRST SENTRY Cool it 11 The Princess and Lucybird halt. FIRST SENTRY (continuing) Givest thee the password. Lucybird steps forward and sings a wordless, swinging riff a la Ella Fitzgerald, simultaneously throwing her torso around in a kind of frenzied, abbreviated Watusi. The Sentry-Trombonists now blow a quick two-bar riff tag in unison. FIRST SENTRY (continuing) Pass, cat. Lucybird steps past them and turns back to the Princess. LUCYBIRD Come, your grace, give the password... just as I. The Princess is obviously a bit inhibited and unsure of the riff and the gyration that goes with it, but somehow manages to give a fair rendition and the guards raise their horns and return the riff as they pass her. The Princess seems to like the^whole idea as she smiles back at the sentries and tries "the password again. Lucybird takes her hand and leads her off. WIPE TO:
