Logos on a white background read: tvokids + Radio-Canada Original

Animated animals put letters on a white cloud.

A title reads: TVOKIDS Presents Momolu And Friends

All say, YAY!

(Chuckling)

(Music playing)

Momolu narrates, PLEASE DON'T GO!

Pepe sits on a couch outside a circus tent. DJ Bass closes a suitcase. It pops open.

(Creaking)

DJ Bass says, AH!

(Both laughing)

DJ Bass says, OOPS! MY BOAT LEAVES IN 15 MINUTES! DON'T WANNA BE LATE FOR MY DJ SET ON KIKA ISLAND.

Pepe says, AH?

(Straining)

DJ Bass tries to shut the suitcase.

(Groaning and grunting)

Pepe bounces up and down on the suitcase, shutting it.

Pepe says, TA DA!

(Chuckling)

DJ Bass says, AH... THAT'S WHY YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND. YOU ALWAYS HELP ME.

Pepe says, I'LL REALLY REALLY MISS YOU. HAVE FUN!

DJ Bass says, SEE YOU TOMORROW!

Momolu walks over, holding a soccer ball. DJ Bass walks away, carrying the suitcase.

Momolu and Pepe call, BYE!

(Pepe sighs)

Momolu asks, HMM... DO YOU WANT TO PLAY SOCCER?

Momolu kicks the ball up and down.

(Chuckling)

(Pepe sighs)

Pepe says, OKAY...

(Music playing)

Pepe throws the ball to Momolu and Banni.

(Groaning in effort)

Momolu kicks it into a net.

Banni calls, GOAL!

Momolu says, WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP!

Banni asks, DO YOU HAVE A RAP FOR MOMOLU'S GOAL?

Pepe says, UH... I GUESS NOT.

Banni and Momolu say, HUH?

Momolu asks, WHAT'S WRONG?

Pepe says, I'M USUALLY USED TO PLAYING SOCCER WITH DJ BASS. I'M NOT USED TO PLAYING WITH ANYONE ELSE.

(Groaning)

Momolu says, HMMM... WE NEED TO HELP TAKE PEPE'S MIND OFF DJ BASS.

Banni says, YOU'RE RIGHT! WHAT CAN WE DO? OH, I KNOW... HOW ABOUT A DELICIOUS SMOOTHIE AT KIMU'S CAFÉ?

Pepe says, I LIKE FRUIT SMOOTHIES!

(All chuckling)

(Music playing)

The three of them sit at a table in the café. Kimu puts a smoothie in cup on the table. Banni and Momolu drink from straws. Pepe sits, looking sad.

(Slurping loudly)

(Pepe groans)

Momolu asks, DON'T YOU LIKE IT? IS IT TOO WARM?

Banni asks, DO YOU NEED ICE CUBES?

Pepe says, UH-UH... DJ BASS LOVES BLUEBERRIES. THEY'RE HER FAVOURITE.

Momolu says, HMM...

Banni asks, WHAT ELSE CAN WE DO TO CHEER HIM UP?

Momolu says, MAYBE A DANCE CLASS WITH HUHU?

Banni cries, GREAT IDEA! DANCING ALWAYS PUTS ME IN A GOOD MOOD!

Banni jumps down and starts dancing.

Huhu does a spin in a dressing room.

(Humming)

Huhu says, ONCE MORE. WATCH. I CROSS MY FEET, WHILE I TURN THEM AT THE SAME TIME.

Banni says, WOW! THAT'S PRETTY TO WATCH.

Huhu says, PRETEND YOU'RE A FLYING FEATHER.

Momolu says, LET ME TRY! AAH!

Momolu stumbles.

(Giggling)

Banni dances and spins.

Banni says, WHOA!

She looks dizzy.

(Giggling)

Huhu says, YOUR TURN! YOU ALWAYS HAVE GOOD MOVES.

Pepe turns slowly in a circle.

Pepe mutters, TA-DAH!

(Sighs)

Huhu says, THIS ISN'T LIKE YOU. YOU'RE USUALLY SO PEPPY, PEPE.

Pepe says, DJ BASS AND I ALWAYS COME UP WITH NEW DANCES WHEN WE WRITE MUSIC. IT'S NOT THE SAME WITHOUT HER.

Banni says, HOW ABOUT WE PLAY GAMES TOGETHER?!

Momolu says, YES! I HAVE LOTS OF GAMES AT MY HOUSE!

Huhu says, FABULOUS IDEA! LET'S GO!

(Music playing)

Momolu carries boxes to a table. Pepe sits on a chair, looking dejected.

Momolu says, WE COULD BUILD A CASTLE OF CARDS...

Banni says, OR A BEAUTIFUL NECKLACE!

Huhu says, OH, BADMINTON WILL CHEER YOU UP!

Pepe says, HMM... I GUESS...

Huhu says, LET'S SEE WHAT ELSE THERE IS... OH! WE'LL PLAY CHECKERS! THAT WAY YOU HAVE
TO CONCENTRATE REALLY HARD AND THINK OF NOTHING ELSE. HUH?

Pepe is gone.

All say, HUH?

Huhu asks, WHERE DID PEPE GO?

Banni and Momolu look around.

Banni says, HMM?

Momolu says, HMM.

Huhu says, HUH?

Momolu opens the front door.

Momolu says, LOOK OVER THERE!

Pepe sits outside.

(Pepe groans)

Banni says, I WISH WE COULD CHEER HIM UP.

Momolu says, I'LL GO TALK TO HIM.

Pepe sits on a hammock. Momolu walks over.

Momolu says, WE'RE WORRIED ABOUT YOU. YOU SEEM SO SAD SINCE DJ BASS LEFT.

Pepe says, I'M NOT SAD. I JUST MISS HER. SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND. WHEN SHE'S NOT HERE, IT'S... IT'S NOT THE SAME.

Momolu says, I UNDERSTAND. I DON'T LIKE IT WHEN BANNI ISN'T THERE.

Pepe says, I LIKE MAKING MUSIC WITH HER. AND I LIKE THE WAY SHE LAUGHS AT MY JOKES.

(Giggling)

Pepe says, OH! AND THAT TIME WE WERE BOUNCING ON A TRAMPOLINE! I LANDED IN HER ARMS!

(Laughing)

Pepe says, WE LAUGHED SO MUCH WE WERE CRYING!

Pepe rapping, DJ BASS SO MUCH FUN. SHE'S SO BRIGHT, THAT SHE'S LIKE THE SUN. WE LIKE TO PLAY, WE LIKE TO SING, WHEN WE GET TOGETHER, WE CAN DO ANYTHING!

Pepe says, I'M HAPPY SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND. BUT NOT THAT I CAN'T BE WITH HER...

Momolu says, OH! ROLY POLY PANDAS! I KNOW HOW YOU CAN REMEMBER YOUR BEST FRIEND WHEN YOU CAN'T BE TOGETHER!

Pepe asks, WHAT'S THAT?

Momolu stands at a craft table.

Momolu says, WE'LL MAKE FRIENDSHIP BRACELETS!

Banni says, HMM? HUH-UH.

Banni and Huhu line up beads.

(Humming)

Pepe lines up purple and pink beads.

(Momolu chuckling)

Huhu cuts yarn.

Huhu says, UH HUH. AND… OH!

Momolu puts beads on a piece of yarn.

Momolu says, UH-HUH!

Pepe says, UH-HUH!

Pepe slide beads along a string.

(Giggling)

Momolu and Huhu say, WHOO!

Pepe uses scissors to trim the string.

Everyone looks at two finished bracelets.

Pepe says, THIS IS SO NICE! I'M GOING TO WRAP IT UP! I CAN'T WAIT TO GIVE HER THE FRIENDSHIP BRACELET!

Momolu says, ALL THIS TIME, WE WERE TRYING TO MAKE PEPE FORGET ABOUT DJ BASS, WHEN WHAT HE REALLY NEEDED WAS TO REMEMBER HER!

DJ Bass sits with Pepe in the café.

(Laughing)

Momolu asks, HOW WAS KIKA ISLAND?

DJ Bass says, OH, IT WAS GREAT. BUT NOT AS GREAT AS THIS BRACELET!

DJ Bass and Pepe wear the matching bracelets.

Pepe says, OH?

DJ Bass says, IN FACT, THIS BRACELET IS INSPIRING ME... TO WRITE A NEW SONG WITH MY BEST FRIEND!

(Giggling)

Pepe cries, THE FRIENDSHIP SONG!

(DJ Bass beatboxing)

Pepe puts on sunglasses shaped like lemon slices and jumps up.

Pepe rapping, DJ BASS IS SO MUCH FUN. SHE'S SO BRIGHT THAT SHE'S LIKE THE SUN. WE LOVE TO PLAY, WE LOVE TO SING. AND WHEN WE GET TOGETHER, WE CAN DO ANYTHING.
