The School Play:
Episode 4: Rehearsals 

Jessie and Jacob both got parts in the play. They were so happy that Jacob’s Dad took them out for ice cream to celebrate.  

Jessie and Jacob went to their first rehearsal (that’s where you practice for a play). They sat next to each other and were so happy.  

Then Jessie was told to read some lines aloud. All of a sudden, she ran out, saying that she had to use the restroom. When she came back, she said that she was sick and had to go home.  

Jacob got really worried about Jessie and asked to go see her. Jacob’s Dad called Jessie’s Mom and then drove Jacob over to her house.   
   

Jacob asked Jessie what happened and if she was alright. Jessie replied, “I am quitting the play. You should just go away!”
