Bubbles of Sin

Who knew a bottle of bubbles could lead to such a sticky situation? When Bobo the clown discovers his bubbles have mysteriously vanished, he begins a hilarious journey to find out who took them. With the help of slow-talking Donk the Mule, excitable Rover the Dog, and squeaky Squeekers the Mouse, Bobo's search leads to his good friend — Bubbles the Whale — who just might be hiding more than foam in his blowhole.

But it’s not just bubbles in the air — Satan is lurking in the background, laughing at every fib and misstep. Can honesty, friendship, and forgiveness win the day?

Characters (Puppets or real actors): 

• Bubbles the whale
• Squeekers the Mouse
• Satan (balloon head to pop)
• Donk the Mule
• Rover the Dog

Bobo: (blows a few bubbles from pink bubble necklace)
Oh, I just ran out of bubbles. Well that’s OK, because I bought a whole bottle of bubbles at the store the other day. (searches everywhere, bumps bottom)
Oh no, they’re gone! I know they were right here. Who would want to steal my bubbles?
Oh! Here is Donk—maybe she knows.
Hi Donk!

Donk: (talks very low and very slow)
Hel_lo Bo_bo.

Bobo:
Donk, my bubbles are gone and I think someone has taken them.
Have you seen anyone with bubbles?

Donk:
No_oo I Hav_en’t.
Here comes Ro_ver, why do_n’t you ask her.

Bobo:
Ok Donk. Thanks anyway.

Donk:
Good_bye.

Rover: (pants, barks and growls occasionally)
Pant, rrrr... Hi Bobo.

Bobo: (sighs)
Hi Rover.

Rover:
Pant... rrrr... bark bark!
What’s the matter, Bobo? Did you lose your bone?
Rrrrr bark! Makes my tail lose its wag when I lose my bone.

Bobo:
No Rover, but my bubbles are missing, and I think someone took them.
Have you seen anyone with bubbles that might look suspicious?

Rover:
Rrrrrr... bark bark!
No, I haven’t. But rrrrr... I’ll keep a watch out. I’m a watchdog, you know!
But Squeeker was saying something about bubbles.
Rrrrr bark bark!
Squeeker, come here! Bark bark! Come quick!

Squeeker: (enters, squeaking – no words)
Eeeek eek!

Bobo:
Yes, hi Squeeker.

Rover:
Rrrrr bark bark!
Bobo thinks someone took her bubbles.
Rrrrr... have you seen anyone with bubbles?

Squeeker: (nods head, squeaks)
Eeeeeek eek eeeeek!

Bobo:
Noooo... are you sure?

Squeeker: (nods)
Eeeek eek eeeek!

Bobo:
Bubbles the Whale was playing with bubbles...
But I thought he told me he ran out and his mom wasn’t going to buy him any more—
Because he gets them all over the rocks and then people slip and fall.

Squeeker:
Eeeeek eeeek eeek!

Bobo:
Oh OK, Squeeker. Thanks for your help.
Careful... and don’t get stepped on.

Rover:
Rrrrrr bark!
You want I should go bite him?

Bobo:
No Rover, thanks for your help though.
I’ve known Bubbles for a long time.
I’ve never known him to do anything like this before.
Times like this... is when friends need you to be a friend the most.

Rover:
RRRRrr bark!
OK, but don’t forget the offer.

Bobo:
OK, thanks Rover. Bye.
Boy, I can’t believe Bubbles would do something like this.
Lord, show me how to handle this in a way that will help Bubbles stop sinning.
