Title: "The Missing Banana"

Characters:

Toby: A curious, overly energetic monkey.

Ellie: A wise, calm elephant.

Leo: A grumpy, sleepy lion.

---

Scene 1: In the Jungle - Morning

(Toby is swinging from tree to tree with excitement. Ellie is calmly drinking water from a nearby river while Leo is sleeping under a tree.)

Toby: (yelling excitedly) Ellie! Ellie! Guess what? I found a banana! A HUGE one! It's perfect for breakfast!

Ellie: (calmly) That’s great, Toby. I’m happy for you. Just make sure you save it.

Toby: (grinning) Save it? No way! I’m eating it now! (swinging away)

(Toby rushes to a tree where the banana is, but when he reaches it, he gasps in horror.)

Toby: (panicking) What?! Noooo! It’s gone!

(Toby runs back to Ellie and Leo, who is still snoozing.)

Toby: (frantic) Ellie! The banana! It disappeared! I’m sure it was right here!

Ellie: (looking up, unphased) Well, I didn’t take it. Did you check with Leo?

Toby: (shocked) Leo?! (yelling) Leo! Did you take my banana?!

(Leo, still lying under the tree, opens one eye lazily.)

Leo: (groggy) Huh? What? Banana? What banana?

Toby: (frustrated) The banana I found! It was HUGE! And now it’s gone!

Leo: (sighing) I’m not moving. I’m sleeping. You’re imagining things, Toby.

Toby: (determined) I’ll find it myself then!

Scene 2: Toby's Search - Jungle

(Toby starts searching high and low. He peeks under bushes, climbs trees, and even looks inside hollow logs. He sees a trail of peels and follows it.)

Toby: (muttering to himself) Aha! I knew it! Somebody’s been munching on my banana!

(He follows the trail and spots something: a sneaky raccoon eating the last bite of the banana.)

Toby: (pointing) Aha! It was YOU!

Raccoon: (chewing, looking guilty) Uh-oh. You found me. Sorry, Toby, I got hungry.

Toby: (crossing arms) That was my breakfast!

Raccoon: (shrugging) Well, it was really tasty... Wanna share?

Scene 3: Resolution - By the River

(Toby returns to Ellie and Leo with the news.)

Toby: (sighing) So, I found the banana... and ate the last bite of it.

Ellie: (laughs) So, it wasn’t Leo after all?

Leo: (chuckling) Nope. You should’ve checked with the raccoon. He’s always sneaking food.

Toby: (grumbling) Next time, I’ll tie my banana to my tail. No one can steal it then.

Ellie: (smiling) Sounds like a plan. But maybe... just maybe... you could share next time.

Leo: (yawning) Share? Nah, I’m just here for a nap. Let me know when breakfast is over.

(The three friends laugh together as the sun rises higher in the sky.)
