Olly olly oxen free
GEORGE. Olly Olly Oxen Free! (Breathing heavily.) I won! I won! God, I love this game. (GEORGE reaches behind the couch and grabs Simmon and Gogen and puts the puppets on his hands.)
GOGEN. (The Giraffe) He cheats. I won’t play with him anymore.
SIMMON. (The Bunny) I’m not cheating. I happen to have hiccups. (He hiccups.)
GOGEN. Then don’t hide where I’m hiding.
Charles Richard Johnson, Olly Olly Oxen Free: A Farce in Three Acts (Samuel French, 1988).
