(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

Fall-coloured leaves fall outside a yellow house with a red shingled roof.
Pip and Posy sit on the floor of Posy’s bedroom, which has yellow walls and a twin bed with an orange frame with yellow and red blankets.

Posy says, THE LITTLE RABBIT
LOOKED EVERYWHERE FOR HIS TOY,
BUT IT WAS GONE!
THE NAUGHTY MISCHIEF MONSTER HAD
TAKEN IT!
FIRST HIS SNACK, AND NOW HIS
FAVOURITE, CUDDLY SHEEP!

(Pip gasps)

Posy continues, HE HEARD A NOISE BEHIND THE
DOOR.
"IS THAT YOU, SHEEPY?"
HE SLOWLY OPENED THE DOOR.

(Creaking)

Pip looks frightened. He clutches his toy pig.

Pip asks, WAS IT SHEEPY?

Posy says, IT WAS… A FLAPPY BAT!

(Pip gasps)

Pip falls over.

(Pip and posy giggle)

Pip says, THAT WAS SCARY!

Posy says, IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE SCARY,
IT'S SPOOKY SATURDAY!
YOUR TURN TO TRY AND GIVE ME THE
COLLYWOBBLES!

Pip puts the pig on the floor beside him.

Pip says, OKAY.
THERE ONCE WAS A BEAST AND A
GHOST WITH A SPOOKY SCREAM!

(Pip wails)

(Posy giggles)

Pip says, IT WAS THE BEAST'S BIRTHDAY,
AND THE GHOST SAID, "HAPPY
BOO-THDAY!"

(Posy laughs)

Posy’s toy frog rolls under her bed.

(Pip groans)

Pip says, IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE
FUNNY!
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE SPOOKY!

Posy says, KEEP TRYING, PIP!
COME ON, LET'S MAKE OUR GHOST
TRAIN!

Pip picks up his pig and follows Posy out of her room.

Pip says, THE BEAST IS BEHIND YOU!

Posy says, HELLO, PIGGY-BEAST!

Posy pinches the pig’s snout.

(Posy snorts and giggles)

Pip notices a plate of cookies on a kitchen table with a yellow tablecloth.

Pip asks, OOH, DO YOU THINK OUR
COOKIES HAVE COOLED DOWN YET?!

Posy says, OOH!

Posy runs to the cookies and holds her paw over them.

Posy says, AH, STILL TOO WARM.

Pip says, WOOOOOOH!

Posy says, STILL NOT SCARED!

(Wind howls)

A blue kitchen door rattles.

(Pip and Posy gasp, then giggle)

The kitchen door opens. Pip holds the pig out the doorway and turns it from side to side.

Pip says, NOTHING HERE!

Pip goes back into the kitchen.

Posy says, MAYBE THE MISCHIEF MONSTER
HAS COME TO PLAY!
WOOOOOO!

Posy walks into her bedroom.

Posy says, DID YOU SEE HIM, FROGGY?
OH, FROGGY?!

Posy looks around her bedroom.

Posy says, WHERE ARE YOU?

Pip takes Froggy out from under the bed.

Pip says, HERE HE IS!
HE WAS HIDING FROM MY SPOOKY
STORY!

Posy says, OH, FROGGY!
I THOUGHT THE MISCHIEF MONSTER
HAD TAKEN YOU.

(Posy giggles)

Posy says, STILL NEED TO SCARE ME!

Pip says, OH, I KNOW!

(Pip giggles)

Posy searches through a kitchen cupboard. Pip sits his toy pig on the kitchen table next to Froggy.

Posy says, THE COOKIE DECORATIONS ARE IN
HERE SOMEWHERE.

Pip goes into the living room. He takes a wooden toy train and hides it behind a blue beanbag chair. He runs into the kitchen.

Posy says, AH!

(Pip breathes heavily)

Posy says, NEARLY READY!
OOH, LET'S MAKE OUR GHOST TRAIN
FIRST!

Posy goes into the living room and looks on a pink couch with a red floral pattern.

Posy says, OH, I THOUGHT I LEFT IT HERE?

Pip says, YEAH!

Posy says, WHERE IS IT?!

Posy searches under the couch. Pip runs into the kitchen. He hides some of the cookies in a fruit bowl.

(Pip giggles)

Posy approaches Pip in the living room.

Posy says, I CAN'T FIND IT.

Pip says, MAYBE THE-- THE MISCHIEF
MONSTER HID IT?!

(Posy scoffs)

Posy says, UM, LET'S DECORATE THE
COOKIES THEN!

(Pip clears his throat and snickers)

Pip says, OKAY!

Posy notices less cookies on the plate.

Posy says, THERE'S ONLY TWO!

Pip says, OH.

Posy asks, DID YOU EAT THEM?

Pip says, NO!

Posy says, NO FIBBING, I CAN TELL WHEN
YOU FIB, YOUR NOSE WIGGLES!

Pip says, I PROMISE I HAVE NOT EATEN
THEM.

Posy says, HM, BUT THERE WERE DEFINITELY
MORE.

Pip says, WHAT IF THE MISCHIEF MONSTER
HID THEM?!
QUICK, LET'S EAT THE LAST ONES
BEFORE HE TAKES THEM TOO!

(Wind blows)

The kitchen door rattles.

(Pip and Posy gasp, then giggle)

Pip eats a cookie.

(Munching)

Posy hesitantly bites a cookie. She looks thoughtful.

Pip says, FINISHED!
I'LL CHECK THE BEDROOM FOR
COOKIES!

Posy says, NO!
ER, LET'S KEEP LOOKING IN HERE.
ERM.

Posy looks inside her refrigerator.

(Pip gasps and snickers)

Posy says, NOPE.
WHERE ARE THEY?

Posy notices Pip is not in the kitchen.

(Posy gasps)

Posy says, PIP?

Pip is in Posy’s bedroom holding his toy pig.

Pip says, PIGGY, WE NEED TO HIDE!

Pip crawls under a green desk.

Posy calls out, PIP?
WHERE ARE YOU?

(Pip chuckles)

Posy calls out, PIP?

(Pip giggles)

Pip hides beside a yellow armoire. Posy enters her bedroom.

Posy says, PIP?

Posy scans her bedroom.

Posy says, OH, FROGGY, LET'S CHECK THE
KITCHEN AGAIN.

(Pip giggles)

Pip’s ear peeks out from beside the armoire.

(Posy gasps)

Posy sneaks up to the armoire.

Posy says, BOO!

(Pip and Posy laugh)

Pip says, POSY, YOU SCARED ME!

Posy says, YOU SCARED ME MORE.
I THOUGHT THE MISCHIEF MONSTER
HAD HIDDEN YOU.
I DIDN'T LIKE IT.

Pip says, OH, I WAS TRYING TO GIVE YOU
A GOOD SCARE, BUT IT WAS A BAD
ONE.
SORRY, POSY.

Pip hugs Posy.

(Posy giggles)

Posy says, MISCHIEF MONSTER'S NOT VERY
NICE IS HE?

Pip says, HM, MAYBE HE IS NICE AND HE JUST
HID THINGS 'CAUSE HE WANTED TO
PLAY WITH US?

Posy says, OH, HE JUST WANTED SOME
FRIENDS?
I WONDER IF HE'S STILL HERE.

Posy says, WHOA!
OOH, HE IS!

Posy mimes patting someone on the head.

(Posy laughs)

Pip says, COME ON, MISCHIEF MONSTER,
HELP US FIND THE TRAIN!

Pip and Posy mime holding hands with someone.

(Pip and Posy giggle)

Pip says, WHAT'S THAT MISCHIEF MONSTER?
THE TRAIN'S IN A BIG BLUE,
SQUASHY-STATION?

Posy says, OOH!

Posy looks behind the beanbag chair.

Posy says, FOUND IT!

Posy holds tongs in the kitchen.

Posy asks, WHERE ARE THE COOKIES,
MISCHIEF MONSTER?!

Pip says, LOOK WHERE, MISCHIEF MONSTER?
SOMEWHERE FRUITY?!

(Posy laughs)

Posy lifts bananas out of the fruit bowl.

Posy says, AH-HA!

Pip holds a plate. Posy puts the cookies onto the plate using the tongs.

(Pip and Posy giggle)

Posy draws a scary face on a cookie with pink icing.

Posy says, MISCHIEF MONSTER LOVES
VAMPIRES!

(Posy roars)

(Pip gasps)

Pip bumps into a red chair at the kitchen table.

Pip asks, MISCHIEF MONSTER, DID YOU KNOCK
MY CHAIR?!

(Pip and Posy giggle)

Posy plays with the toy train on the living room floor.

(Train chugging sounds)

(Pip yawns)

(Posy laughs)

Pip says, WHAT?!
IT WAS MISCHIEF MONSTER, HE'S
TIRED.

Posy says, TIME TO GO, MISCHIEF MONSTER,
AND HERE'S YOUR GOING HOME
SNACK!

Posy picks up a plate with the iced cookie on it.

Pip and Posy open the kitchen door. Posy puts the cookie outside and waves.

Posy says, BYE, MISCHIEF MONSTER!

(Pip and Posy giggle)

Pip and Posy go back into the kitchen. A crow lands on a fence outside Posy’s house. Posy looks out a window in the kitchen door. The cookie is gone.

(Posy gasps)

Posy says, THE COOKIE'S GONE!

Pip says, HUH?

Posy says, THE MISCHIEF MONSTER IS...

Pip and Posy say, REAL!

Pip and Posy go outside.

(Crow cawing)

Pip and Posy look at a tree.

(Pip and Posy gasp)

The crow eats the cookie on a tree branch.

Pip and Posy say, OH!

(Pip and posy giggle)

The crow flies away with the cookie. Pip and posy go inside Posy’s house.

(Playful orchestral music)
