"Linus is standing in the yard looking at a bird standing on the grass. <br> <br> Linus kneels in the grass and the bird walks up to him. <br> <br> Linus is patting the bird on the head as Charlie Brown is standing behind him watching with a questioning look of exclamation. <br> <br> Charlie Brown walks up to Lucy who is on the sidewalk with her jump rope. Charlie Brown says to her, “Your brother pats birds on the head..” Lucy replies, “WHAT?” <br> <br> Lucy walks over to Linus and yells, “ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?!” Linus jumps up in shock and back away from Lucy as the bird watches. <br> <br> “Are you trying to make us the laughing stock of the whole community?” Lucy says to Linus, as the bird walks away feeling bad. <br> <br> Linus stands listening to Lucy with a frown on his face as she goes on saying, “How long do you think we’ll last around here if word gets out that you pat birds on the head?” <br> <br> Lucy yells, “NOW, CUT IT OUT!!” as Linus leans back in fear. <br> <br> Linus stands on the grass looking sad. <br> <br> Snoopy comes walking by and Linus looks at him. <br> <br> Linus asks Lucy “How about dogs?” As Snoopy sits next to Linus, Lucy replies “Dogs are all right…you can pat all the dogs you want.. In fact, society approves of patting dogs on the head!” <br> <br> Linus is kneeling in the grass patting Snoopy who is sitting next to him, the bird is standing on the other with a “SIGH” Linus is saying, “there are many things I don’t understand..” <br> <br>" dialogue-text,"Linus is standing in the yard looking at a bird standing on the grass. <br> <br> Linus kneels in the grass and the bird walks up to him. <br> <br> Linus is patting the bird on the head as Charlie Brown is standing behind him watching with a questioning look of exclamation. <br> <br> Charlie Brown walks up to Lucy who is on the sidewalk with her jump rope.
