[Upbeat music plays, thunder rumbling, blocks tapping]
In a playroom, Marcus drops a block. Lila picks it up and lays it across the top of two blocks, standing like columns.
Marco says, THAT STORM SURE IS MAKING A LOT OF NOISE...
[Tapping]
Lila moves four small pawn-shaped figures under the blocks.
Lila says, DON'T WORRY, MARCO, WE'RE SAFE INSIDE.
Marco says, LILA, CAN YOU PLAY WOOLLYS WITH ME, SO I WON'T BE SO SCARED?
[Rustling]
Lila moves the blocks and figures. She puts Woollys on the floor.
Lila says, OF COURSE! LET'S INVITE BEEBEE, CHOOCHOO... OH, AND WILLY, JOSIE AND PIROUETTE!
Marco asks, CAN WE ADD AUNTIE FROGGIE?
Lila adds Auntie Froggie to the pile.
Lila replies, YES, WE CAN! AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF LET'S ADD THE WOWIE WOO...
[Rattling]
Lila puts a marble behind the pile of Woollys, and it rolls to Beebee’s hat.
Marco says, YES SO THAT OUR ADVENTURE CAN BE MORE WOO!
[Rustling]
Lila and Marco move a cardboard theatre featuring drawings of Woollys and red curtains in front of the pile of Woollys. The cardboard curtains slide open.
[Harp chords play, bleating, yarn clicking, upbeat music plays, boinging]
In an animation, Beebee and Choochoo wrap a strand of blue wool around flowers. Beebee stacks three sheep and puts yarn over them. Choochoo joins his end of the wool to Beebee’s end. Pirouette jumps and lands beside Choochoo.
Pirouette says, WOO! HOP! HEY! GUESS WHAT? I'M ALL SET FOR MY SPECTACULAR STUNT SHOW TONIGHT!
[Bleating, the music ends, plinking]
Beebee lifts a piece of blue thread.
Choochoo says, AND WE HAVE FINISHED SETTING UP THIS FENCE AROUND THESE STAKES JUST LIKE YOU ASKED US.
[Boinging, happy music plays]
Pirouette jumps.
Pirouette says, HURRAY! THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE SUPER SAFETY ZONE! OH! NOW, I'M GOING TO GO GET MY INFLATABLE PILLOW TO CATCH ME IN CASE I FALL. WOOHOO!
[The music ends]
Pirouette leaves, and Choochoo puts his hands over his mouth.
Choochoo says, A SAFETY ZONE?! BUT... BUT... DOES THAT MEAN THERE IS ALSO A DANGER ZONE!?
[Tense music plays]
Beebee says, DON'T YOU WORRY, CHOOCHOO, YOUR BIG SIS ALWAYS THINKS OF SAFETY FIRST.
Choochoo says, I HOPE SO...
Beebee says, COME ON!
[Rustling, upbeat music plays]
Beebee and Choochoo walk up the hill towards Claudine and jump into a tree.
In his garden, Willy says, MMM...
[Popping, light music plays]
Willy puts a cabbage on the edge of a pile, and the cabbage rolls off.
Willy says, NOT THERE...
[Rustling]
Willy carries the cabbage to the top of the pile and stands on it.
Willy says, NOT THERE EITHER...
[Boinging, shouting]
Willy and the cabbage roll down the side of the pile.
Willy says, OH, SWEET TINY CABBAGE! WHERE CAN I POSSIBLY PUT YOU?!
[Footsteps rustling]
Beebee and Choochoo arrive.
Beebee says, HOWDY GRAMPA!
Willy says, HELLO MY LITTLE SPROUTS! HO-HO! YOU'VE ARRIVED JUST IN TIME!
[Plinking, rustling, light music plays]
Beebee and Choochoo blink. Willy puts the cabbage in Choochoo’s backpack, and Choochoo falls backwards.
Willy says, HERE YOU GO, CHOOCHOO, A GIFT! TELL YOUR PARENTS THEY CAN MAKE A NICE SOUP WITH IT!
Choochoo says, OH, THANK YOU, GRAMPA WILLY.
Willy says, NOW, GO ON AND BRING IT TO THEM RIGHT AWAY SO IT DOESN'T GET DAMAGED.
[Thumping, footsteps rustling]
In a field, the cabbage rolls on the grass in front of Choochoo and Beebee.
Choochoo says, SOUP SOUNDS GOOD BUT... WE HAVE IT ALL THE TIME! MAYBE WE CAN COOK SOMETHING ELSE WITH THIS CABBAGE?
[Boinging]
Beebee stands on his head and jumps to his feet.
Beebee says, LET'S GO SEE AUNTIE FROGGIE. SHE HAS A HUGE BOOK WITH LOTS OF RECIPES IN IT.
[Upbeat music plays]
Beebee runs over Choochoo to the cabbage and kicks. Choochoo follows him.
Choochoo says, I HOPE THEY ARE NOT ALL SOUP RECIPES...
[Upbeat music plays]
In the swamp, a frog rolls onto a lily pad. By Auntie Froggie’s stump, frogs sit on lily pads in the water. A log leads from the shore to the entrance of the stump.
Inside, Auntie Froggie says, MMM...THIS IS A PRETTY TINY CABBAGE. ARE YOU SURE YOU DON'T WANT TO MAKE A TASTY SOUP WITH IT?
[Thumping, clattering, rhythmic music plays, clanging]
Auntie Froggie puts the cabbage on a table. The marble wowie woo rolls from slanted shelf to shelf like a marble run. It lands on the ground, knocks over a bucket, and comes to a stop beside Beebee.
Beebee says, WHOA, AUNTIE! WHAT IS THIS STRANGE WOWIE THINGY?
[Clattering, chiming]
Beebee knocks the cabbage off the table and puts the marble wowie woo in its place.
Auntie Froggie says WELL, I TOLD YOU! A PRETTY, TINY CABBAGE!
Beebee says, NOT THAT, AUNTIE! THIS!
[Boinging]
Beebee jumps by the lint-covered marble wowie woo.
Auntie Froggie says, OH THAT! THAT'S MY CRYSTAL BALL THAT ALLOWS ME TO SEE THINGS THAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE...
[Laughing, children gasping]
Beebee asks, SO, WHAT IS GONNA HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE?
[Tense music plays]
Auntie Froggie says I SEE... I SEE... I SEE THAT THIS MARBLE IS QUITE DIRTY!
[Squeaking, Beebee sneezing, chiming music plays]
Auntie Froggie wipes the lint off the marble wowie woo, which is her crystal ball. The lint floats on the other side of the crystal ball as Auntie Froggie peers into it.
Auntie Froggie says OH MY! IT LOOKS LIKE A BIG STORM IS COMING! OH YES... YES! IT'S GOING TO BE VERY WINDY! I'VE GOT TO GET MY FROGGIE FRIENDS INSIDE RIGHT AWAY!
[Auntie Froggie ribbiting, slide whistle, tense music plays]
Choochoo’s bowtie spins.
Choochoo says, A BIG WINDY STORM?! OOH-LALA! WE HAVE TO HURRY AND WARN EVERYONE! THIS IS VERY SERIOUS! WE NEED TO... WE NEED TO...POOR BEEBEE, HE LOOKS SO AFRAID!
Beebee looks at the crystal ball.
Beebee says, SO PRETTY...
Choochoo says, COME, BEEBEE! IT IS TIME TO GO HOME BECAUSE... BECAUSE... IT IS TIME! THERE IS NO RUSH BUT... WE SHOULD HURRY UP... A LITTLE...
[Upbeat music plays, thumping]
Choochoo leaves. Beebee takes the crystal ball off the table and jumps down. A small hedgehog rolls down the slanted shelves and lands on the table.
Beebee says, HEY, LITTLE HEDGEHOG! CAN YOU TELL AUNTIE FROGGIE THAT I'M BORROWING HER MARBLE? THANK YOU. I'LL BRING IT BACK REALLY SOON!
[Footsteps pattering, upbeat music plays]
Beebee takes the crystal ball. Choochoo runs to Claudine and stands by the garden.
Choochoo says, OH... I REALLY HOPE THAT IT IS NOT TOO LATE TO WARN EVERYONE. COME ALONG BEEBEE, FASTER! WELL, NOT TOO FAST, BUT, YOU KNOW, A LITTLE BIT FASTER.
[Choochoo chuckling nervously, eerie music plays]
Choochoo runs into the garden. Beebee holds the crystal ball close to the ground and watches a snail through it.
Beebee says, OH, WOW! THIS IS THE INCREDIBLEST...
[Footsteps pattering, rustling, thumping]
Beebee runs into the garden. In the garden, Choochoo runs in front of Willy’s wheelbarrow.
Choochoo says, GRAMPA WILLY, QUICK! YOU HAVE TO GET TO SHELTER! A WINDY STORM IS COMING!
Willy says, A STORM, YOU SAY?
[Slide whistle]
Choochoo spins.
Choochoo says, YES, A BIG ONE! IT IS GOING TO BLOW HARD LIKE THIS!
[Choochoo blowing]
Willy watches leaves blow on the vegetables in his cart.
[Energetic music plays]
Willy runs back and forth in the garden.
Willy says, OH! BOUNCIN' PUMPKINS! I'VE GOT TO COLLECT ALL MY VEGETABLES. I DON'T WANT THEM BLOWING AWAY! HURRY NOW! INTO THE WHEELBARROW! HELP ME, CHOOCHOO! HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THIS STORM?
Choochoo and Willy stack vegetables in the wheelbarrow.
Choochoo says, AUNTIE FROGGIE TOLD US.
Will says, AUNTIE FROGGIE TOLD YOU?
Choochoo says, YES. SHE SAW IT IN HER CRYSTAL BALL.
Willy says, HA... WELL THEN, EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT!
[Plopping, wheelbarrow clattering]
Willy dumps the vegetables on the ground.
Choochoo asks, BUT GRAMPA WILLY, WHAT ABOUT THE STORM?!
Willy says, OH, I DON'T PUT MUCH STOCK IN AUNTIE FROGGIE'S PREDICTIONS. ONCE, SHE TOLD ME THAT I WOULD WIN FIRST PRIZE IN THE BIGGEST PUMPKIN CONTEST. BUT SHE WAS WRONG! I ONLY GOT SECOND PRIZE!
Choochoo says, YES, BUT SHE WAS ALMOST RIGHT! RIGHT?
[Music notes chiming]
Willy pushes his wheelbarrow past Choochoo.
Willy says, DON'T YOU WORRY, CHOOCHOO. WORST CASE, WE MIGHT CATCH A LITTLE BIT OF A BREEZE!
[Rustling, upbeat music plays]
Willy pushes his wheelbarrow into a tunnel. In the garden, Beebee holds up the crystal ball and watches bits of wool blow past.
Beebee says, WHOA...
[Thumping]
Willy emerges from the tunnel behind Beebee and pushes the wheelbarrow away.
Choochoo says, COME, BEEBEE! WE ARE OFF AGAIN!
Beebee says, CHOOCHOO, I SAW THE MOST INCREDIBLEST THINGS IN THIS THINGY. IT'S LIKE THERE'S A REAL STORM IN THERE!
[Tense music plays]
Choochoo says, A STORM?!
[Boinging]
Beebee jumps to Choochoo.
Beebee says, YES! EVERYTHING WAS FLYING ALL OVER THE PLACE!
[Slide whistle]
Choochoo’s bowtie spins.
Choochoo says, OH, YES? HEH...THAT IS JUST SUPER! BUT... DO NOT WORRY, MY PAL, EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT! WAIT FOR ME HERE, BEEBEE!
[Footsteps pattering, tense music plays]
A line of ants walks past Beebee, and he watches them through the crystal ball.
Beebee says, OF COURSE!
Choochoo says, I NEED TO GO SEE GRAMMA JOSIE!
Choochoo runs down the stem of a tomato plant.
Choochoo says, OOH-LALA, THIS WILL NOT DO! THIS WILL NOT DO!
He runs out of the garden to Claudine.
Choochoo says, CLAUDINE! CLAUDINE, OPEN UP, PLEASE AND THANK YOU, IT IS AN EMERGENCY!
[The music ends, birds chirping]
Claudine says, OH! HELLO CHOOCHOO! GOLLY, YOU ARE LOOKING VERY ELEGANT TODAY! TELL ME, IS THAT A NEW HAT?
[Light music plays]
Choochoo says, A NEW HAT? UM... YES... I MEAN, NO, I HAVE ALREADY WORN IT TWO... NO, THREE TIMES... BUT... THAT IS NOT WHY I AM HERE! YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST...
[The music ends]
Claudine says, YES, I KNOW, CHOOCHOO, I ABSOLUTELY MUST GO AND SEE MY HAIRDRESSER! BUT I JUST HAVEN'T HAD THE TIME.
Choochoo says, NO, CLAUDINE! YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST LET ME INSIDE! THERE IS A BIG, BLOWY STORM COMING OUR WAY!
[Plinking, Claudine creaking, birds chirping]
Claudine blinks and looks around.
Claudine says, A STORM? ON SUCH A LOVELY DAY?
Choochoo says, LET ME INSIDE PLEASE AND THANK YOU. SO, I CAN WARN GRAMMA JOSIE!
Claudine says, JOSIE? OH, SHE'S NOT HOME! SHE'S OUT BACK KNITTING GARLANDS AND FLAGS FOR PIROUETTE'S STUNT SHOW.
[Tense music plays]
Choochoo runs around Claudine.
Choochoo says, THANK YOU, CLAUDINE!
[Choochoo panting]
Josie knits beside a basket of red wool. Colourful flags hang on a laundry line behind her.
Choochoo says, GRAMMA JOSIE! YOU HAVE TO GET INSIDE QUICKLY; THERE IS A WINDY, WINDY STORM COMING!
[The music ends]
Josie says, WINDY YOU SAY? OH, THAT WILL BE PERFECT FOR DRYING WILLY'S FRESHLY LAUNDERED HATS.
[Laughing, footsteps pattering]
Josie says, HEH! I'LL GET THEM!
Josie leaves, and Choochoo holds his hands over his mouth.
Choochoo says, OOH-LALA! AM I THE ONLY ONE WORRIED ABOUT THIS STORM?!
[Boinging]
Beebee arrives and jumps.
Beebee says, CHOOCHOO! I HAVE SEEN SOME INCREDIBLE THINGS IN THIS CRYSTAL BALL! THERE WERE GRASSHOPPERS JUMPING EVERYWHERE, LADYBUGS FLYING UPSIDE DOWN AND ANTS THAT WERE RUNNING AWAY IN A LINE...
Choochoo says, ANTS RUNNING AWAY?!
[Startled music notes play, thumping]
Choochoo falls on the grass and rolls.
Beebee says, YES, AND ALSO...
[Creaking, dramatic music plays]
Choochoo rocks on the ground.
Choochoo says, OH BEEBEE, THIS IS REALLY SERIOUS! IT PROVES THAT A BIG STORM IS COMING! AND IF WE DO NOTHING, WE ARE GOING TO BE BLOWN FAR AWAY FROM HERE, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO COME BACK, WE WILL NEVER SEE OUR ADORABLE FOREST, WE WILL NOT EAT...
[Flapping]
A butterfly lands on Choochoo’s hair.
Beebee says, OH! A BUTTERFLY!
Choochoo stands, and Beebee and the butterfly stand on the side of his head.
Choochoo says, I DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE. I WILL HAVE TO PROTECT EVERYONE!
[Energetic music plays]
In the garden, Choochoo pushes the wheelbarrow into Willy, knocking him into it. Choochoo carries Beebee and the crystal ball in his backpack.
Willy says, WAIT!
Choochoo pushes the wheelbarrow to Josie and knocks her inside.
Josie says, OH!
Beebee, Willy, and Josie sit in the wheelbarrow, with a line of flags streaming in the air behind them. Beebee holds the crystal ball in front of his face.
Beebee says, WOW! EVERYTHING IS MOVING SO FAST IN THERE!
[Choochoo panting, thumping]
Choochoo arrives at Pirouette’s show and dumps Beebee, Willy, and Josie on the ground by Virginia the woonicorn and three other audience members. Pirouette stands on top of a tree turned sideways on top of a hay bale, with two cows and another tree on the hill next to Claudine.
Choochoo says, YOU WILL ALL BE SAFE IN HERE! I AM COMING, PIROUETTE! I WILL NOT LET THE WIND TAKE YOU AWAY!
[Energetic music continues]
Choochoo pushes the wheelbarrow across a vine to Pirouette.
Pirouette says, CHOOCHOO?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP HERE?!
[Whooshing, thumping]
Choochoo knocks Pirouette into the wheelbarrow.
Choochoo says, I AM HERE TO PROTECT YOU FROM THE CALAMITOUS HURRICANE OF A STORM THAT IS COMING!
[The music ends, slide whistle, tapping, pillow squelching, horn blaring, slide whistle, rustling, thumping]
Choochoo runs off the tree and falls into the wheelbarrow. Pirouette jumps on the side of the wheelbarrow as it falls. They land on the inflatable pillow, and the pillow rips. Wind escapes and blows the audience across the field and into a pile.
Beebee says, WOW! IT'S EXACTLY LIKE AUNTIE FROGGIE PREDICTED!
[Birds chirping]
Virginia says, WOW! THAT WAS AMAZING!
[Footsteps pattering]
The audience walks back to the pillow.
Willy says, HOHO! SIMPLY SPECTACULAR! HO!
Josie says, THANK YOU, CHOOCHOO. YOU DID A VERY GOOD THING BRINGING US HERE!
[Light music plays]
Choochoo asks, IS IT OVER? HAS THE STORM PASSED?
Willy says, SWEET SASSY STRING! I SURE HOPE SO!
Choochoo says, GOOD. BECAUSE...I WAS VERY SCARED.
[Footsteps pattering]
Josie walks to Choochoo and puts her arm around his shoulders. Pirouette jumps down and hugs him.
Josie says, THERE, THERE, MY LITTLE WOOLLY! IT'S NORMAL TO BE SCARED! IT HAPPENS TO EVERYONE. HEHE! EVEN ME!
Willy says, BUT WHENEVER YOU'RE SCARED, YOU SHOULD COME AND TELL US! WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT TOGETHER OVER SOME YUMMY APPLE PIE!
[Everyone hugs]
Lila narrates, MEANWHILE, AUNTIE FROGGIE WAS SO BUSY GATHERING HER FROG FRIENDS THAT SHE MISSED CHOOCHOO'S ENTIRE ADVENTURE...
[Upbeat music plays, footsteps pattering]
In her stump, Aunty Froggie puts the frogs on her bed.
Aunty Froggie says, THERE! PHEW! YOU'LL ALL BE SAFE IN HERE!
She looks at the cabbage on her table.
Aunty Froggie says, WHAT! MY CRYSTAL BALL HAS TRANSFORMED INTO A CABBAGE?
[Eerie music plays]
She says, OH! THAT MUST MEAN WE ARE GOING TO HAVE FLOODS OF CABBAGE SOUP! MMM... SOUNDS DELICIOUS!
[Laughing, red curtains scraping, upbeat music plays]
The red curtains close.
In the playroom, Marco says, HEAR THAT, LILA? THE STORM HAS PASSED!
[Thumping]
Marco and Lila lift the theatre off the Woollys.
Lila says, EVERYONE BACK OUTSIDE! THE STORM IS OVER! THAT STORM SCARED ME A LITTLE TOO...
Marco says, BUT THANKS TO THE WOOLLYS, WE FORGOT ALL ABOUT IT.

Willy pushes his wheelbarrow into a tunnel. In the garden, Beebee holds up the crystal ball and watches bits of wool blow past.
Beebee says, WHOA...
[Thumping]
Willy emerges from the tunnel behind Beebee and pushes the wheelbarrow away.
Choochoo says, COME, BEEBEE! WE ARE OFF AGAIN!
Beebee says, CHOOCHOO, I SAW THE MOST INCREDIBLEST THINGS IN THIS THINGY. IT'S LIKE THERE'S A REAL STORM IN THERE!
[Tense music plays]
Choochoo says, A STORM?!
[Boinging]
Beebee jumps to Choochoo.
Beebee says, YES! EVERYTHING WAS FLYING ALL OVER THE PLACE!
[Slide whistle]
Choochoo’s bowtie spins.
Choochoo says, OH, YES? HEH...THAT IS JUST SUPER! BUT... DO NOT WORRY, MY PAL, EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT! WAIT FOR ME HERE, BEEBEE!
[Footsteps pattering, tense music plays]
A line of ants walks past Beebee, and he watches them through the crystal ball.
Beebee says, OF COURSE!
Choochoo says, I NEED TO GO SEE GRAMMA JOSIE!
Choochoo runs down the stem of a tomato plant.
Choochoo says, OOH-LALA, THIS WILL NOT DO! THIS WILL NOT DO!
He runs out of the garden to Claudine.
Choochoo says, CLAUDINE! CLAUDINE, OPEN UP, PLEASE AND THANK YOU, IT IS AN EMERGENCY!
[The music ends, birds chirping]
Claudine says, OH! HELLO CHOOCHOO! GOLLY, YOU ARE LOOKING VERY ELEGANT TODAY! TELL ME, IS THAT A NEW HAT?
[Light music plays]
Choochoo says, A NEW HAT? UM... YES... I MEAN, NO, I HAVE ALREADY WORN IT TWO... NO, THREE TIMES... BUT... THAT IS NOT WHY I AM HERE! YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST...
[The music ends]
Claudine says, YES, I KNOW, CHOOCHOO, I ABSOLUTELY MUST GO AND SEE MY HAIRDRESSER! BUT I JUST HAVEN'T HAD THE TIME.
Choochoo says, NO, CLAUDINE! YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST LET ME INSIDE! THERE IS A BIG, BLOWY STORM COMING OUR WAY!
[Plinking, Claudine creaking, birds chirping]
Claudine blinks and looks around.
Claudine says, A STORM? ON SUCH A LOVELY DAY?
Choochoo says, LET ME INSIDE PLEASE AND THANK YOU. SO, I CAN WARN GRAMMA JOSIE!
Claudine says, JOSIE? OH, SHE'S NOT HOME! SHE'S OUT BACK KNITTING GARLANDS AND FLAGS FOR PIROUETTE'S STUNT SHOW.
[Tense music plays]
Choochoo runs around Claudine.
Choochoo says, THANK YOU, CLAUDINE!
[Choochoo panting]
Josie knits beside a basket of red wool. Colourful flags hang on a laundry line behind her.
Choochoo says, GRAMMA JOSIE! YOU HAVE TO GET INSIDE QUICKLY; THERE IS A WINDY, WINDY STORM COMING!
[The music ends]
Josie says, WINDY YOU SAY? OH, THAT WILL BE PERFECT FOR DRYING WILLY'S FRESHLY LAUNDERED HATS.
[Laughing, footsteps pattering]
Josie says, HEH! I'LL GET THEM!
Josie leaves, and Choochoo holds his hands over his mouth.
Choochoo says, OOH-LALA! AM I THE ONLY ONE WORRIED ABOUT THIS STORM?!
[Boinging]
Beebee arrives and jumps.
Beebee says, CHOOCHOO! I HAVE SEEN SOME INCREDIBLE THINGS IN THIS CRYSTAL BALL! THERE WERE GRASSHOPPERS JUMPING EVERYWHERE, LADYBUGS FLYING UPSIDE DOWN AND ANTS THAT WERE RUNNING AWAY IN A LINE...
Choochoo says, ANTS RUNNING AWAY?!
[Startled music notes play, thumping]
Choochoo falls on the grass and rolls.
Beebee says, YES, AND ALSO...
[Creaking, dramatic music plays]
Choochoo rocks on the ground.
Choochoo says, OH BEEBEE, THIS IS REALLY SERIOUS! IT PROVES THAT A BIG STORM IS COMING! AND IF WE DO NOTHING, WE ARE GOING TO BE BLOWN FAR AWAY FROM HERE, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO COME BACK, WE WILL NEVER SEE OUR ADORABLE FOREST, WE WILL NOT EAT...
[Flapping]
A butterfly lands on Choochoo’s hair.
Beebee says, OH! A BUTTERFLY!
Choochoo stands, and Beebee and the butterfly stand on the side of his head.
Choochoo says, I DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE. I WILL HAVE TO PROTECT EVERYONE!
[Energetic music plays]
In the garden, Choochoo pushes the wheelbarrow into Willy, knocking him into it. Choochoo carries Beebee and the crystal ball in his backpack.
Willy says, WAIT!
Choochoo pushes the wheelbarrow to Josie and knocks her inside.
Josie says, OH!
Beebee, Willy, and Josie sit in the wheelbarrow, with a line of flags streaming in the air behind them. Beebee holds the crystal ball in front of his face.
Beebee says, WOW! EVERYTHING IS MOVING SO FAST IN THERE!
[Choochoo panting, thumping]
Choochoo arrives at Pirouette’s show and dumps Beebee, Willy, and Josie on the ground by Virginia the woonicorn and three other audience members. Pirouette stands on top of a tree turned sideways on top of a hay bale, with two cows and another tree on the hill next to Claudine.
Choochoo says, YOU WILL ALL BE SAFE IN HERE! I AM COMING, PIROUETTE! I WILL NOT LET THE WIND TAKE YOU AWAY!
[Energetic music continues]
Choochoo pushes the wheelbarrow across a vine to Pirouette.
Pirouette says, CHOOCHOO?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP HERE?!
[Whooshing, thumping]
Choochoo knocks Pirouette into the wheelbarrow.
Choochoo says, I AM HERE TO PROTECT YOU FROM THE CALAMITOUS HURRICANE OF A STORM THAT IS COMING!
[The music ends, slide whistle, tapping, pillow squelching, horn blaring, slide whistle, rustling, thumping]
Choochoo runs off the tree and falls into the wheelbarrow. Pirouette jumps on the side of the wheelbarrow as it falls. They land on the inflatable pillow, and the pillow rips. Wind escapes and blows the audience across the field and into a pile.
Beebee says, WOW! IT'S EXACTLY LIKE AUNTIE FROGGIE PREDICTED!
[Birds chirping]
Virginia says, WOW! THAT WAS AMAZING!
[Footsteps pattering]
The audience walks back to the pillow.
Willy says, HOHO! SIMPLY SPECTACULAR! HO!
Josie says, THANK YOU, CHOOCHOO. YOU DID A VERY GOOD THING BRINGING US HERE!
[Light music plays]
Choochoo asks, IS IT OVER? HAS THE STORM PASSED?
Willy says, SWEET SASSY STRING! I SURE HOPE SO!
Choochoo says, GOOD. BECAUSE...I WAS VERY SCARED.
[Footsteps pattering]
Josie walks to Choochoo and puts her arm around his shoulders. Pirouette jumps down and hugs him.
Josie says, THERE, THERE, MY LITTLE WOOLLY! IT'S NORMAL TO BE SCARED! IT HAPPENS TO EVERYONE. HEHE! EVEN ME!
Willy says, BUT WHENEVER YOU'RE SCARED, YOU SHOULD COME AND TELL US! WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT TOGETHER OVER SOME YUMMY APPLE PIE!
[Everyone hugs]
Lila narrates, MEANWHILE, AUNTIE FROGGIE WAS SO BUSY GATHERING HER FROG FRIENDS THAT SHE MISSED CHOOCHOO'S ENTIRE ADVENTURE...
[Upbeat music plays, footsteps pattering]
In her stump, Aunty Froggie puts the frogs on her bed.
Aunty Froggie says, THERE! PHEW! YOU'LL ALL BE SAFE IN HERE!
She looks at the cabbage on her table.
Aunty Froggie says, WHAT! MY CRYSTAL BALL HAS TRANSFORMED INTO A CABBAGE?
[Eerie music plays]
She says, OH! THAT MUST MEAN WE ARE GOING TO HAVE FLOODS OF CABBAGE SOUP! MMM... SOUNDS DELICIOUS!
[Laughing, red curtains scraping, upbeat music plays]
The red curtains close.
In the playroom, Marco says, HEAR THAT, LILA? THE STORM HAS PASSED!
[Thumping]
Marco and Lila lift the theatre off the Woollys.
Lila says, EVERYONE BACK OUTSIDE! THE STORM IS OVER! THAT STORM SCARED ME A LITTLE TOO...
Marco says, BUT THANKS TO THE WOOLLYS, WE FORGOT ALL ABOUT IT.
