Current Scene Script Breakdown:

[SCENE: Walnut Grove Hilltop & Pond - AFTERNOON]

[Nellie sits regally draped in blankets upon her wicker bathchair, smugly clutching Harriet's parasol.]

'I'm paralyzed, Laura! Paralyzed! And you must do whatever I say!'

[Laura Ingalls grips the bathchair handles at the crest of the hill, jaw set firmly.]

LAURA: 'You want to go fast down the hill, Nellie? Let's see how fast you really can roll.'
