A boy with short brown hair and glasses wears a blue shirt.

The boy says, HI, I'M CHARLIE
AND IF I COULD BE ANYTHING,
I'D BE A CHEF!

[Cheerful music plays]

Children wear costumes and uniforms for different jobs.

A woman sings, IMAGINE POWERFUL
IMAGINE COMICAL
IMAGINE MAGICAL
CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT?

Text reads “Can You Imagine That? Starring Charles.”

Charlie draws a chef on a whiteboard on an easel.

Charlie says, HI. I'M CHARLIE,
AND IF I COULD BE ANYTHING,
I'D BE A CHEF.

[Gentle music plays]

Charlie’s chef drawing animates.

Charlie puts on a chef’s hat.

[Energetic music plays]

A BIG WHITE CHEF'S HAT.
WITH A WHITE SHIRT,
AND LOTS OF BUTTONS.

[Chime, chime]

Charlie does up the buttons on a white shirt.

He says, I'D COOK LOTS
OF DIFFERENT KINDS OF FOODS
FOR ALL OF MY FRIENDS!

Charlie smiles. He gives a thumbs up.

[Ting]

A drawing of a restaurant has two tables with chairs outside. A sign has Charlie’s picture on it.

Charlie says, I'D HAVE MY VERY OWN RESTAURANT
WITH A BIG KITCHEN
AND ALL THE UTENSILS
I WOULD NEED FOR COOKING.

Charlie puts a bowl on a countertop next to a canister of utensils. Charlie grins and selects various cooking utensils in his kitchen.

[Ting]

He says, LIKE A SPATULA.

He proudly holds up a spatula.

[Ding]

He continues, OR A WHISK FOR BEATING EGGS.

He holds up a whisk and egg yolks wiggle around him.

[Ding]

Charlie wears a space helmet and walks on a drawing of the moon. He walks like a robot.

Charlie says, BEEP-BEEP-BEEP,

BEEP-BEEP,
TASTY TASTY, YUM YUM.
BEEP-BEEP, BOP-BAP-BEEP.

Charlie puts vegetables, fruit and cheese on the counter.

[Boing, boing, boing, boing]

He says, MY KITCHEN WOULD BE FULL
OF DIFFERENT KINDS
OF INGREDIENTS
I WOULD NEED FOR COOKING-
DIFFERENT KINDS
OF FOODS AND SPICES.

[Boing, boing, boing, boing]

Charlie stands in front of a bowl.

He says, I'D PUT ALL THE VEGETABLES
INTO A BIG BOWL.

Charlie blows a kiss. Hearts appear around him as he smiles.

[Kiss noise, ding]

Charlie says, MMM, BROCCOLI AND CHERRY
TOMATOES ARE DELICIOUS!

I'D MAKE A SALAD
FOR MY FRIEND DANNY.

He tosses the vegetables in a bowl.

He continues, I'D RIP UP THE SALAD
INTO SMALL PIECES.
THEN TOSS EVERYTHING
TOGETHER!

Charlie throws the bowl into the air and catches it.
He shakes shakers over the bowl and grinds a pepper mill.

[Shaking, grinding]

Charlie says, AND OF COURSE,
ADD SOME FETA CHEESE ON TOP. MMM!

He adds some pepper, then takes a taste. He skips along a drawn path. A purple goat walks behind him, pulling a wagon full of salad.

[Sliding, bird chirps]

Charlie says, OFF TO DANNY'S HOUSE
TO DELIVER MY FOOD.

Red eyes glow in a dark cave.

Charlie says, DANNY IS A DRAGON.

Charlie shrugs.

[Ding, munching]

Danny, a red dragon, eats salad.

Charlie says, DIG IN, DANNY!
YOUR FAVOURITE.

[Imitating dragon munching, burping]

The dragon devours the salad, then burps. Danny licks his lips.

Charlie says, DANNY NEEDS TO LEARN
SOME MANNERS.

WHEN DANNY HAS A PARTY
FOR ALL OF HIS DRAGON FRIENDS,
IT'S MY JOB AS A THE CHEF
TO COOK UP THE FEAST.

He tosses a fried egg which sticks to the ceiling, then falls on his head.

[Slide whistle, horn]

Charlie says, LOTS OF CHEESE AND SPINACH.
DANNY LOVES SPINACH
IN HIS DRAGON LASAGNA.

Charlie licks tomato says from his lips, then blows a kiss and smiles.

Charlie flexes his muscles. Colourful sprinkles fall on the sundae.

[Ding, ding, bell]

An animated shaker of sprinkles shakes on the banana split.

He says, AND LOTS AND LOTS
OF SPRINKLES.
DRAGONS LOVE SPRINKLES!

[Upbeat music plays]

Two red dragons sit at a table in front of Charlie’s restaurant. He puts the banana split on the table between them.

Charlie says, EVERYONE WOULD COME EAT
AT MY RESTAURANT.

Charlie hops.

[Boing, boing, boing]

A dragon sticks out its tongue. A small flame flickers on the tip.
Charlie blows on the fire.

[Blowing]

He says, DRAGONS LIKE ICE CREAM
'CAUSE THEY'RE ALWAYS BURNING
THEIR TONGUES WITH FIRE,

AND ICE CREAM IS SUPER COLD
SO IT FEELS GOOD ON THEIR TONGUES.

Charlie high fives the dragon.

[Hands slap]

Charlie scoops banana split into bowls.

[Whooshing noise]

He says, ICE CREAM IS ALSO SUPER SWEET
AND CHOCOLATY.

Charlie smiles. He rubs his stomach.

[Chime]

He says, EVERYONE LOVES MY COOKING!

[Energetic music plays]

A man sings, CAN YOU IMAGINE BEING
ANYTHING YOU WANT TO BE
