Sleeping Pup

Meeting a new Friend or Love?

(Autumn tries halfheartedly to run off, but is held by Chase)

Chase: I'm awfully sorry. I didn't mean to frighten you.

Autumn: Oh it wasn't that. It's just that you're a, a ...

Chase: A stranger?

Autumn: Hmm-hmm.

Chase: But don't you remember? We've met before!

Autumn: We, we have?

Chase: Of course, You said so yourself: Once upon a dream! (sings) I know you I walked with you Once upon a dream I know you The gleam in your eyes Is so familiar a gleam

(We see them from remote waltzing at a lake)

Choir: And I know it's true That visions are seldom all they seem But if I know you I know what you'll do You'll love me at once The way you did Once upon a dream

(They stop dancing. Chase lays his arm around Autumn)

Chase: Who are you, what's your name?

Autumn: Hmm? Oh, my name. Why, it's, it's ... Oh no, no, I can't, I ... Goodbye! 

(runs off)

Chase: But when will I see you again?

Autumn: Oh never, never!

Chase: Never?

Autumn: Well, maybe someday.

Chase: When, tomorrow?

Autumn: Oh no, this evening.

Chase: Where?

Autumn: At the cottage, in the glen.
