There is a wooden sign with a photo of a clown fish, popcorn boxes, and a pond surrounded by a white picket fence. A colourful banner hangs above the pond.
ALL: Wow!
SPIN: What's this place?
POCKETS: It's a kind of circusy lake.

GIGGLE: Who are you?

GIGGLE: Oh! We're looking for a fish. A real clownfish. Like this one in the picture.

FISHY WOO: Look no further. That is the wonderful, talented Chuckle the Clownfish! And she lives right here in this lake. Jump on board and I'll introduce you!

THE FIRST CLOUD: Hmm.
THE SECOND CLOUD: Hmm.

FISHY WOO: Prepare to be dazzled. Prepare to be amazed. Actually, I'm not sure where Chuckle is.
DESCRIPTION: The three friends frown.
ALL: Aw!
DESCRIPTION: Two clouds frown in the sky.
FISHY WOO: Chuckle? Chuckle? Where are you?
DESCRIPTION: Yapette watches three birds have a picnic on the shore.
ALL: Chuckle? Chuckle?
[Barking]
POCKETS: Don't worry, Yapette. Chuckle must be around here somewhere.
[Spin gasps]
DESCRIPTION: Spin points to a floating, red object in the water.
SPIN: Over there! It's Chuckle.
DESCRIPTION: The object floats to the surface; it is an orange-and-white-striped bag. Fishy Woo picks it up with a net.
FISHY-WOO: That's not Chuckle. Just rubbish.
GIGGLE: Rubbish should be in the bin.
FISHY WOO: Quite right. Onwards, Chuckle seekers.
DESCRIPTION: As they continue to sail, the friends find more and more rubbish in the lake. There are water bottles, milk jugs, juice boxes, cans, and more. Fishy Woo picks up as much as she can in her net.
FISHY-WOO: Oh, dear. Not more rubbish. Oh, more! Oh, dear.
DESCRIPTION: Surrounded by rubbish, an orange and white clown fish wearing a red clown nose swims by. She frowns deeply, and her fins droop.
[Spin gasps]
SPIN: Look! It's Chuckle. Oh, yeah!
FISHY WOO: Prepare to be dazzled by the one and only Amazing Chuckle the Clownfish!
ALL: Yay!
[Chuckle whimpering]
FISHY WOO: Let's do the super duper hoop jump.
DESCRIPTION: Fishy Woo takes out an orange hoop and holds it above the water. Chuckle looks up at it and shakes her head.
FISHY WOO: Oh, dear. I'm sorry about this, everyone. She's been practicing this jump for weeks. Come on, Chuckle, you can do it.
ALL: Chuckle! Chuckle! Chuckle! Chuckle!
DESCRIPTION: A milk jug floats in the lake and knocks into Chuckle.
SPIN: [Groaning] More rubbish.
GIGGLE: Aw. Chuckle looks sad.
DESCRIPTION: Two clouds frown in the sky.
GIGGLE: We wanted to see the Amazing Chuckle do some tricks.
FISHY WOO: I know! Me too! I wonder if there's something else we could do to encourage Chuckle to do her tricks.
DESCRIPTION: A thought bubble appears above the Mixmups' heads. They think about finding the bag floating in the lake, picking it up in a net, Chuckle frowning, and the Mixmups cheering.
ALL: Hmm.
SPIN: We thought we saw Chuckle, but it was only a stripy bit of rubbish.
GIGGLE: Then when we did find Chuckle, she didn't want to do the hoop trick.
POCKETS: And we tried to encourage her by cheering, but she looked really sad.
SPIN: Now, I'm sad, too.
ALL: [Sighing]
DESCRIPTION: Three birds holding juice boxes run by a garbage can next to the lake. They throw their juice boxes onto the ground.
FISHY WOO [yells]: Hey! Can you watch your rubbish? There are creatures living in this lake!
DESCRIPTION: The Mixmups frown. In the water, Chuckle glares at the rubbish.
POCKETS: Oh. I think Chuckle is fed up with her home being used as a bin.
GIGGLE: So, that's why she doesn't want to do her tricks.
SPIN: Yeah, let's help her get rid of all the rubbish in the lake.
FISHY WOO: What a great idea!
DESCRIPTION: Two clouds smile in the sky.
[Upbeat music]
DESCRIPTION: Spin, Giggle, Pockets, and Fishy Woo use nets to scoop up all the rubbish in the lake. Chuckle smiles up at them. On land, the birds throw out their trash into a bin, and the Mixmups sort garbage into recycling, waste, and compost bins.
DESCRIPTION: Two clouds smile in the sky.
SPIN: There! That's all the rubbish gone.
GIGGLE: And Chuckle looks much happier.
SPIN: Do you think she'll do her tricks now?
FISHY WOO: Well, let's see, shall we?
ALL: Chuckle! Chuckle! Chuckle! Chuckle! Chuckle! Chuckle!
DESCRIPTION: Chuckle smiles. She swims in circles and jumps into the air.
GIGGLE: Oh, yeah! She's doing it!
FISHY WOO: Now, everyone, watch this.
DESCRIPTION: Chuckle jumps back and forth through Fishy Woo’s orange hoop.
ALL: Wow!
[Laughing]
FISHY WOO: And now, for her final trick. Chuckle will attempt the flip, flap, flop!
SPIN: Yes!
DESCRIPTION: Chuckle swims in tight circles underwater, building momentum; then, she jumps high into the air and does a triple backflip!
[Cheering]
DESCRIPTION: Chuckle and the Mixmups smile. Back on shore, the Mixmups talk with Fishy Woo.
GIGGLE: We did it! Chuckle did her tricks for us, but only after we had taken the rubbish out of the lake.
FISHY WOO: Well, as I say, there's always another way.
DESCRIPTION: The Wooden Spoon appears in a flash of light in Giggle’s hand. Their lifejackets disappear.
GIGGLE: Ooh! It's time to go.
DESCRIPTION: The magical adventure world begins to fold back up into the Magical Mixing Box,
FISHY WOO: Toodle-loo!
DESCRIPTION: Giggle, Spin, Pockets, Yapette, and Roller Guinea all disappear into the Magical Mixing Box in a shimmer of sparkles. They reappear at the Mixington Valley house.
[Upbeat music]
POCKETS: That was a fishtastic circus adventure.
GIGGLE: Look! Clown noses!
DESCRIPTION: On the table are three red clown noses. The Mixmups smile and put them on.
POCKETS: I wonder who left these here?
SPIN: Who nose! [Giggling] Get it? Who nose?
[Honking]
ALL: [Laughing]
DESCRIPTION: Up on the hilltop overlooking Mixington Valley is Lucky Loover Bird. She puts her yellow hat back in the tree cupboard. She sits back on the tree swing and looks down at Mixington Valley.
LUCKY LOOVER BIRD: Mixing up adventures near and far, but home is where the Mixmups are. Bye, Mixmups!
