Mr Madam: Monica and Bobby, you have failed the test!
Narrator: Monica and Bobby finished their hockey lessons and accidentally left the Snowman outside in the blazing, hot sun. Mae was quietly spying on the Snowman melting down and somehow she felt sad for the snowman.

Mae: Ok, it’s here!
(Snowman melts)
Children: Nooo!
Mae: Sorry mister Snowman for everything I have done.
Snowman: That’s ok!
Monica, Mae and Bobby: We’ll miss you!
Snowman: I’ll still be in your hearts forever.
(Snowman gives them a souvenir)
Narrator: A few months later, the siblings became very good friends with Mae and the Snowman’s spirit is still in their hearts today.
The End! (Everyone bows down)
