NAME:

I doubt

Giro, the Giraffe, Dino the Dinosaur, and the Hippopotamus Horace are playing a card game.
'A lemon,' announces Giro, slamming a card down on the table. The card is face down.
- I doubt! – shouts Horacio. He takes a look at the letter to see if Giro is lying.
– Oh! It's a boat! You can take the letter back – laughs Horacio. Spin obeys.
“I can never get rid of these letters!” thinks Giro. “If I don't make it, I won't win”.
Dino puts down an upturned card and says decidedly:

– A chicken. – Nobody doubts her.
Horacio downloads two cards, pretending they are one.
“An elephant,” he says.
Giro glares at him, but says nothing.
Now it's Giro's turn. He downloads a letter and shouts:
- A boat!
Dino yells – I doubt it! – and spy.
– It's a duck! Get the letter back!
“Two tomatoes,” Dino yells, looking guilty.
- I doubt! – shout Giro and Horacio together. They check. It was really two tomatoes!
- I won! I won! I have no more cards! - Dino yells.
- Damn it! We got so busy doubting each other that Dino managed to get rid of all his letters! – Horacio exclaims and starts laughing.
– HUUU, HO-HO-HO-HO! HUUU, HO-HO-HO!
