Duet Acting
by O. Henry

Two small time bandits decide to kidnap the son of the wealthiest man in a small western town. Little do they know that the boy is an absolute terror! One bandit is the mastermind, and the other watches the boy, who decides he wants to be called "Red Chief, the terror of the plains." After Bill nearly gets scalped, burned at the stake, ridden to the stockade, fed grass, burned with a hot potato and asked every curious question the little boy has in his head, they decide that the boy isn't worth the ransom. They'd rather stay alive, and instead of acquiring the ransom money, they end up paying the father to take his son back! Hilarious! Little boy is pantomimed! Lots and lots of action and slap stick humor. Very challenging, for two guys.
