MAUI:

yes, yes. Maui always has time for
his fans.
Maui takes oar from Moana, humming as he reaches for a half
buried chicken in the sand. Chicken squarks when picked up.

It's called tweeting.
Finishes scratching into the oar, throwing the chicken over
his shoulder when done. Hold oar out to Moana while
grinning. Moana takes the oar, looking at the scratches in
confusion.
MAUI:

chance to meet your hero.
Maui leans heavily onto the boat, Moana looks at the oar
before swinging it at Maui, hitting him in the stomach and
tossing the oar aside. Moana steps towards Maui, whose

MAUI:
Uh, Ah!
MOANA:

Moana grabs Maui's ear, dragging him down so she can yell
into his ear.
MOANA:
-are not my hero! And I am not here
so you can sign my oar!
