Andy is frightened when he sees the pirates. They have eye patches and big swords, and they do not look happy to see him. But the pirates are not the reason why Andy feels scared.

The play is based on a famous novel by Robert Louis Stevenson, and it is one of Andy’s favorites. He has been looking forward to this for weeks. But now that he’s up on stage, with his family and friends watching from the audience, something terrible has happened. Andy does not remember what he’s supposed to say.It’s the big scene at the end of the play, when Andy fights the pirates. When they were practicing the play, this was his favorite scene, because he got to run and jump and fight with his sword. Andy loves pretending to be a pirate. He and his friends spend every recess imagining the jungle gym is a ship. They run back and forth across it, having sword fights and yelling about buried treasure. Sometimes they jump off the side and pretend to be eaten by sharks.

They look angry. He isn’t sure if their anger is pretend. He waves his sword at them, but they don’t do anything. Nothing can happen until he says his line.

Alice's adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, John Tenniel
Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, "and what is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures or conversations?" So she was considering, in her own mind whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.
