Category: 2-Scout Skits
Props: An uninflated latex balloon

Petunia:   I bet I can hold my breath longer than you. 

Ashes:   What? No way! I'm a lot bigger and stronger than you, and I bet I can hold my breath longer than you! 

Petunia:   That sounds like a bet to me - you go first! 

Ashes:   OK! 

Ashes takes in a big breath and holds it - cheeks puffed out, eyes wide open, etc.

Petunia mocks Ashes, trying to get him to let his breath out

Petunia:   You're turning blue! I bet you can't go much longer.... 

Ashes releases his breath with a lot of fanfare

Ashes:   See! I did pretty good, huh! I bet you can't beat that! 

Petunia pulls out the ballon and inflates it (it doesn't need to be more than one breath), and then holds it up.

Ashes:   What are you doing? 

Petunia:   I'm holding my breath.
