Setting Characters
Plot
Mainly inside a school bus
Mrs Gump, Forrest, Jenny, bus driver ...
Forrest takes the school bus on the first day of school. The children are mean to him except Jenny, who offers him a seat. They sit together and soon become great friends.
This voice-over includes three don’ts and one do, which serve well to emphasize Forrest’s great joy and deep gratitude when Jenny offers him a seat while other kids refuse him. With a low IQ, he can’t remember many things that are considered to be important. Yet, he does remember the very moment when he meets Jenny for the first time.

• From that day on, we was always together. Jenny and me was like peas and carrots.
The grammatical mistakes in the two lines reflect Forrest’s low IQ, which makes the character true and vivid. Besides, “peas and carrots” is an American idiom, which means keeping each other’s company very often as peas and carrots are commonly used together to decorate dishes in America.
