(Playful orchestral music)

Posy, an animated brown mouse, steps forward,

Posy cries, PIP!

Pip is an animated grey rabbit in a green and white striped shirt.

Pip says, POSY!

(Both laughing)

They run to each other and dance. Posy wears a red shirt and a blue skirt.

Pip carries Posy on his back. Posy carries a toy frog and tosses it in the air.

Posy says, OOP!

Posy catches the frog and Pip catches a toy pig.

Posy calls, COME ON!

Both say, LET'S PLAY!

(Both laughing)

Pip and Posy run and skip over a white background.

A title reads: Pip and Posy

Posy reads a storybook. The cover of the book is purple with a picture of a green dragon.

Posy says, THE FIREY DRAGON WAS FEARED
THROUGHOUT THE LAND.
ROAR WENT THE FLAMES FROM ITS
MOUTH, WHOOSH WENT THE SMOKE
FROM ITS NOSE!

Posy stands on a small stage in the corner of a schoolroom. Jamila kneels in front of the stage. Pip, Zac, and Frankie sit at a blue table doing arts and crafts.

Zac says, SPLAT WENT THE BOOGIES FROM
MY NOSE.

(All laughing)

Posy steps off the stage and reads to Jamila.

Posy says, THE PRISONER SAID, "PLEASE,
LET ME OUT!"
BUT THE DRAGON ROARED, "NEVER!

(Jamila laughs)

(Pip roars)

Pip says, SHOW ME THE DRAGON AGAIN.

Posy brings the book to Pip.

Posy says, HERE!

A picture in the book shows a knight on horseback battling a green dragon.

Pip says, HM.

Posy says, ONLY THE BRAVE HERO CAN SAVE
THE PRISONER.
TOGETHER THEY'LL BEAT THE DRAGON
ONCE AND A FOR ALL!

Pip holds a dragon’s head made from a cardboard box.

Pip says, PERFECT, DRAGON COMPLETE!

Posy says, WOW!

(Posy roars)

(Jamila squeals)

Jamila says, DRAGON!

(All laughing)

Posy says, LET'S GO PLAY DRAGONS!

Pip says, YEAH!

Zac says, WOO-HOO!

(The animals roar)

The animals run outside the school and onto a playground.

Posy sings, AND YOU'LL NEVER STOP THE
DRAGON
HE'S RUDE, CRUDE AND SCARY
AND HE ROARS, ROARS, ROARS

Posy says, I'M THE DRAGON!

Pip says, I MADE IT, I'M THE DRAGON.

Posy says, OH.

Zac runs in front of Pip and Posy.

(Squirting noises)

Zac says, AND I'M THE FIRE!
WHOA!

Posy says, OKAY, I'LL BE THE HERO, AND
FRANKIE CAN BE PRISONER.
I'LL SAVE YOU, FRANKIE!

Frankie says, OH, I WAS GOING TO BE THE
HERO.
I'VE GOT A SWORD AND A HORSE.

Jamila stands beside Frankie.

(Jamila neighs and giggles)

Jamila runs to a blue jungle gym. Zac runs past the jungle gym.

Posy asks, WELL, WHAT AM I THEN?

Pip says, YOU CAN BE PRISONER POSY.

Jamila stands inside the jungle gym.

Jamila says, OH, THIS CAN BE YOUR PRISON!
NEIGH, NEIGH, NEIGH!

Posy says, I'M NOT BEING THE BORING
PRISONER.
I WANT TO BE A FUN BIT.

Frankie says, WE FIGHT THE DRAGON TOGETHER
AT THE END, REMEMBER?
THAT'LL BE FUN.

Posy says, YEAH, I SUPPOSE.

Posy trudges toward the jungle gym. Jamila prances like a horse.

(Jamila makes horse clip-clop sounds)

A small black beetle crawls on the grass near Posy’s foot. It scurries away from Posy and runs onto a spider web.

(Posy sighs)

Posy sits inside the jungle gym.

Posy asks, AM I FREE YET?

Pip wears the dragon head over his head.

Pip says, WE HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED.

(Posy sighs)

(Pip roars)

(Zac makes squirting noises)

Zac runs around the playground.

Pip says, ZAC, I NEED MY FIRE!

Frankie says, WE NEED TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE
SHIELDS!

(Pip roars)

Jamila says, IT'S GETTING HOT NOW, HORSEY.

Posy peers between bars on the jungle gym.

Pip says, I'M GOING TO GET YOU!

(Pip roars)

Frankie says, COME ON, JAMILA.

(Laughing)

(Roaring)

Posy jumps in front of the other animals.

Posy says, AH-HA!

Pip says, POSY, YOU HAVE TO WAIT IN
PRISON SO FRANKIE CAN RESCUE
YOU.

Posy says, I'M ALREADY FREE.

Pip says, BACK I SAY!

FREE!

Posy says, YES, I WILL!
I--
I FOUND THE KEY!

(Posy grunts)

Posy runs out of the jungle gym.

(Pip roars)

Posy says, YOUR DRAGON BARS CAN'T STOP ME!

Posy kicks in front of her friends.

Posy says, HIYA!
HIYA!

Pip says, POSY, STAY IN YOUR PRISON.

Posy says, WHAT, AGAIN?

Frankie says, I'LL SAVE YOU IN A MINUTE.
REMEMBER, I'VE GOT TO FIGHT THE
DRAGON FIRST.

(Pip roars)

(Posy sighs)

Posy says, PRISON'S SO BORING.

(Frankie giggles)

Posy kicks a rock that knocks the beetle off the spider web.

(Laughing)

The beetle crawls quickly, trips over a stick and flips upside-down onto another web.

Frankie says, COME BACK!

(Pip roars)

Frankie says, I'M COMING FOR YOU NOW, DRAGON!

(Pip roars)

Posy sits under the jungle gym, looking bored.

Frankie says, NO, HE'S TOO STRONG!

Posy joins the other animals.

Posy says, BUT SUPER POSY IS STRONGER!

(Posy grunts and spits)

Posy says, SPLAT!
FIRE'S OUT!

Posy takes a bent black and white wand from Frankie.

Posy says, BOOM, ZAP!
MY THUNDER BEAMS DESTROY THE
DRAGON.

Pip says, POSY!

Posy says, FINISHED!
I'M THE DRAGON NOW.

Pip says, POSY, STOP!
YOU'RE MESSING IT ALL UP.

Zac says, YEAH!

Frankie says, I DIDN'T EVEN GET TO FIGHT
THE DRAGON YET.

(Jamila sighs)

Pip says, BACK TO PRISON.

Posy says, NO!

Posy grabs the side of the dragon head and rips it.

(Posy grunts)

(The other animals gasp)

Posy says, OOH, UM...
SORRY!

Posy runs inside the school.

Pip says, SHE RUINED IT.

The other animals run around a tree.

(Laughing)

(Neighing)

Zac, Frankie, and Jamila bump into Pip.

(Grunting)

Pip walks toward Posy

Pip asks, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

Posy says, I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT THE
DRAGON.
HE'S BETTER NOW.

Blue and yellow paper is taped onto the ripped part of the dragon head.

Jamila says, AW, LOOK, HE'S BEEN TO THE
DRAGON DOCTOR.

Pip says, THANKS, POSY.

Posy smiles. Pip puts the dragon head onto his head.
