MARLIN<br />
No! D<strong>on</strong>'t do that!<br />
BLANCA<br />
I, I have to.<br />
(whispering)<br />
Or the other bears will laugh at me.<br />
Breaking the surface, Marlin sees TWO POLAR BEARS, BRAD and<br />
LOUIE, yucking it up, and egging Blanca <strong>on</strong> from the other<br />
side of the exhibit area.<br />
BRAD<br />
Come <strong>on</strong>, Blanca! D<strong>on</strong>'t be such a<br />
klutz!<br />
LOUIE<br />
How do you mess that up? How do you<br />
trip in water?<br />
BLANCA<br />
(low, to Marlin)<br />
They're so mean to me.<br />
(back to business)<br />
Now where were we?<br />
She starts to lunge at Marlin. Marlin dashes away.<br />
MARLIN<br />
Wait, wait! You wouldn't like me.<br />
I'm small but I'm very high in<br />
cholesterol.<br />
Marlin hits the side of the pool. Blanca puts her enormous<br />
paws <strong>on</strong> either side, and starts moving her mouth toward him.<br />
Marlin is trapped.<br />
MARLIN (CONT'D)<br />
You d<strong>on</strong>'t have to do this! Stand up<br />
to those guys!<br />
BLANCA<br />
But they'll make fun of me... and I<br />
just hate that.<br />
She starts to open wide.<br />
MARLIN<br />
No! Wait! Who cares what they think!<br />
You can't let your life be dictated<br />
<str<strong>on</strong>g>by</str<strong>on</strong>g> fear and anxiety.<br />
Why not?<br />
BLANCA<br />
Marlin takes a deep breath. As l<strong>on</strong>g as she's talking to<br />
him, she's not eating him.
