Happy ending:
| (Tegumai Bopsulai and Taffy are sitting by a river. Tegumai Bopsulai is mending his broken spear while Taffy has placed her hand on her chin and thinking.) | |
| Tegumai Bopsulai: | (sighs) Here's a pretty kettle of fish! It will take me half the day to mend this. |
| Taffy: | (brightens up) There's your big black spear at home. Let me run back to the cave and ask Mummy to give it to me. |
| Tegumai Bopsulai: | (shakes his head) It's too far for your little fat legs. Besides, you might fall into the beaver-swamp and be drowned. We must make the best of a bad job. |
| (Taffy and Tegumai Bopsulai sit in silence for a moment until a Stranger-man comes along.) | |
| Stranger-man: | (smiles at Taffy) Um! |
| Taffy: | (frustrated) Silly! (stamps her foot) |
| Tegumai Bopsulai: | (busy with his spear-mending) Don't bother grown-ups. |
| Taffy: | (to Stranger-man) Do you know where my Mummy lives? |
| Stranger-man: | (confused) Um! |
| Taffy: | (more frustrated) I only want him to do what I want him to do, and he won't understand. |
| Tegumai Bopsulai: | (irritated) Then don't bother me. |
| (Taffy and Stranger-man start miming, with Taffy waving her arms and Stranger-man nodding and smiling politely. Eventually, Stranger-man hands Taffy a piece of bark.) | |
| Taffy: | (confused) What's this? |
| Stranger-man: | (explains in a foreign language) |
| Taffy: | (realizes) Oh, he wants me to write a letter! |
| Tegumai Bopsulai: | (surprised) A letter? |
| Taffy: | (proudly) Yes, to ask Mummy for the other spear! |
| Tegumai Bopsulai: | (impressed) Clever girl! |
| Tegumai Bopsulai: | (impressed) Clever girl! |
| (Taffy and Tegumai Bopsulai start miming, with Taffy writing on the bark and Stranger-man nodding and smiling. Eventually, Stranger-man leaves to deliver the message.) | |
| Tegumai Bopsulai: | (proudly) You're going to be a great help to your people someday, Taffy. |
| Taffy: | (grinning) And we'll never have to go without a spear again! |
Sad ending:
|
(Tengumai and his daughter Taffy went to get some fish for their dinner while Taffy's mother Teshumai is at home waiting for them returning home with fish.) (The moment they reached river where fishing has to be done Tengumai broke his spear accidentally.) |
|
|
Tengumai Bopsulai: |
Oh no. I broke my spear accidentally without even catching a single fish. |
| Taffy: |
Now, what we will be going to do daddy? |
|
Tengumai Bopsulai: |
I had forgot to carry mending bag along with me through which I could have repaired the broken spear. Now only way is that we have to find sharp object something like shark's teeth. |
| Taffy: | Ohh, I see. |
| Tegumai and Taffy search for sharp object but they but they can't find it. They return back on their way to home. On their way to home they had to cross a beaver-swamp. | |
| Tengumai Bopsulai: | Be careful my dear. (Saying this Tengumai slipped into the beaver-swamp.) |
| Taffy: | Daddy, daddy (crying out) |
| Tengumai Bopsulai: | Hand over something to me so that I can hold it tightly and manage to come up. |
| Taffy hands over piece of a bark of tree and pulls it towards her. | |
| Tengumai Bopsulai: | (Struggling to get up) pull Taffy, pull. |
| (Taffy, trying to help her father, slips on a rock and falls into the beaver-swamp. Tegumai jumps in after her, but they both struggle to swim to safety. They eventually make it, but Taffy is shaken and scared. At last they reach their cave.) | |
| Teshumai: | Where is fish? What are we going to have in dinner and what's this? |
| Tengumai Bopsulai: | We will let you know everything in detail. Let us get in first. |
| Tengumai and Taffy explained the whole scenario. | |
| Teshumai: | Ohh, how can you be so careless Tengumai, and Taffy you should have been careful while helping your father. |
| Taffy: | Mumma, I was careful. Don't shout at me. I am already scared. |
| (Meanwhile, Tengumai started mending broken spear.) | |
| Tengumai Bopsulai: | Ouch, ouch! (accidentally pricks his finger with a shark's tooth) |
| (He gets sick as a result of the infection in the wound. He passes away a few days later despite Teshumai's best efforts to care for him, leaving Taffy and her mother inconsolable.) | |

| Tegumai and Taffy search for sharp object but they but they can't find it. They ended up landing on a cave which was hidden behind a bushes. | |
| Tengumai Bopsulai: | It seems like ancient cave abandoned now or its a secret place of someone. |
| Taffy: | Lets get in and see what's there? |
| Tengumai Bopsulai: |
Look dear here is various tools or weapons used for hunting, fishing and gathering.
|
| Taffy: | There are chances that we may find a new spear. |
| Tengumai Bopsulai | Oh, there it is. |
| (In this way they found a new spear and continued fishing) | |
Humorous ending
| (Taffy and Tegumai were sitting outside their cave when they heard a loud rumbling noise. Suddenly, a huge boulder came tumbling down the hill towards them. Taffy and Tegumai quickly jumped out of the way, narrowly avoiding being crushed.) | |
| Taffy: | (Looking at the boulder) That's a big rock! |
| Tegumai Bopsulai: | Yes, it is. But do you know what's even bigger than that? |
| Taffy: | What? |
| Tegumai Bopsulai: | (grinning) Your appetite. |
| Taffy: | (Rolling her eyes and playfully swatting her father's arm) Daddy, that's not funny! |
| (They both laughed) | |
| Tegumai Bopsulai | But seriously, let's go find some food before you eat us out of house and cave. |
| (And so, Taffy and Tegumai set off in search of dinner, with Tegumai keeping a close eye on his daughter's voracious appetite.) | |
