We see a man on stage talking to a puppet with a nose around his neck, sitting down listening to the man talking to him.
Gepetto
Now Pinocchio, you will be trying to go to school once again.
Pinocchio
Yes papa
Gepetto
This time try to stay on path and no distractions.
Pinocchio
Yes papa
Gepetto
Good, good. Now let's remove this. (Takes the noose off of Pinocchio.) I still don't understand how you got up in that tree.
Pinocchio
It was the fox and the cat
Gepetto
You and that imaginative mind of yours
Pinocchio
But it's true
Gepetto
Yes, well let's focus on getting you ready for school tomorrow.
As Gepetto and Pinocchio are getting ready for the night, music is heard. Pinocchio goes to the door to look for the sound.
Pinocchio
Do you hear that papa? It's music!
Gepetto
Pinocchio! Get away from the door! (Grabs Pinocchio and brings him closer.)
Pinocchio
Why papa? (Pulls arm from Gepetto.) It's just music.
Gepetto
Nothing good comes from that music. That's the Doll Maker.
Pinocchio
Doll Maker? Who's that?
Gepetto
The Doll Maker use to be...my assistant a long time ago.
Pinocchio
What happened?
Gepetto
I let them go and well... let's just say nothing good ever came from the doll maker. Promise me Pinocchio that you will never follow the music.
Pinocchio
I promise papa.
