A scene from Hop 2011
E.B.

Look, I'm supposed to take over this year, but...I ran away.

Fred

Are you crazy? Who wouldn't wanna be the Easter Bunny? That's, like, the greatest job ever.

E.B.

Yeah, you'd think so, but it's what my dad wants, not me. He expects so much. What's left of me to do but let him down?

Fred

Hmm, sounds familiar. Sometimes fathers just don't get it.

E.B.
[frustrated]

H-He told me I only ever think of myself!

Fred

Other times they hit the nail right on the head.

E.B.

C'mon, Fred. I know we said we'd go our own separate ways, but please, you gotta protect me.

Fred

Look, I'm sorry, but I can't really leave you places, I can't really take you places, and I gotta go to my sister's play tonight.

E.B.

Oh, I like plays. [looks up with sad eyes]

Fred

We should go see a play that my sister's not in and my family will not be attending.

E.B.
[pause]

I understand. Just drop me off at the bus station. I'm sure I'll be fine. I could be one of those street drummers...with a bucket!
