While watching the performance, the teacher may narrate the Fugtong.

"Once in a village in Kalinga, a family owned a black dog named Fugtong. However,
the community believes that a black dog is bad luck. So, the people asked the family
to choose between killing the animal and staying in the village or leaving the village
with their dog with them. The Family chose the latter. They Settled at the foot of a
hill away from the community.

One day, the parents asked their two children, Gammi and Mannay, to stay home
so they could go to their new UMA (farm). The parents would be staying on their
farm for the night, so they advised their children to lock the door of the house
because there was an anito called a Tangob, a malevolent spirit roaming around.
When night came, the anito came knocking on the door. The children refused to
open the door, but the anito insisted on trying to get in, for he would rip off the
bamboo floor and use it to stitch the children's intestines and eat it.

Fugtong the black dog, got enraged and was able to kill and behead the Tangob,
while the children hid at the ceiling of their hearth. Morning came, and the parents

arrived. They saw Fugtong sleeping beside the head of the Tangob and got worried
about their children. They found their children hiding in the hearth, and the
children told them how Fugtong protected them. This is how the black dog Fugtong
was accepted in the community."
