Script: Jack's Mother

BAKER'S WIFE

Two princes, each more handsome than the other.

(BAKER'S WIFE begins to follow CINDERELLA'S PRINCE and RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE; she stops.)

No! Get the hair!

(BAKER'S WIFE heads in the other direction frantically.)

(JACK'S MOTHER enters.)

JACK'S MOTHER

Excuse me, young woman. Have you encountered a boy answering to the name of Jack?

BAKER'S WIFE

Not the one partial to a white cow?

JACK'S MOTHER

He's the one.

BAKER'S WIFE

Have you seen the cow?

JACK'S MOTHER

No, and I don't care to ever again.

BAKER'S WIFE

I've not seen your son today.

JACK'S MOTHER

(annoyed)

I hope he didn't go up that beanstalk again.

(JACK'S MOTHER begins to exit.)

Jack...! Jack...!
