A yellow fish with large green fins swims in bright blue water.

It says,
BLOOP, BLOOP, BLOOP, BLOOP,
BLOOP, BLOOP, BLOOP

A brown monkey with beige hair bounces up and down.

It says,
OH, OH, OH, OH

A zebra runs, a pink and yellow snake slithers, an elephant sings out of its trunk, eyes on the feathers of a peacock blink. A pig holds an umbrella.

The Animanimals march one by one across the orange ground. The pig sits on the elephant?s back.

The Animanimals sing,
ANIANIMALS.
ANIANIMALS.
ANIANIMALS.
ANIANIMALS.
ANIANIMALS.
ANIANIMALS.

A large cloud shakes. The other Animanimals look surprised.

The cloud sings,
ANIMANIMALS

The Animanimals say, HUH?

A sheep pokes its head and legs out of its fluffy white wool.

The sheep sings,
ANIANIMALS.

The rest of the Animanimals smile.

They sing,
ANIMANIMALS

(Trumpeting)

The Animanimals sing,
ANIMANIMALS

The pig floats down to the ground with its umbrella.

The pig says, YEAH.

(Circus music playing)

An image on a red curtain shows a smiling tiger wearing a cape and mask leaping through a ring of fire.

The curtain opens on a frowning tiger standing in the spotlight.

The tiger says, HM? HM?

The tiger notices the spotlight and looks around. The spotlight widens to show circus equipment.

(Drum roll playing)

The spotlight focuses on a platform at the top of a ladder, then the light drops down to the trampoline. The tiger is wide-eyed.

(Gulping)

The tiger says, HUH?

The spotlight moves to a platform that erupts in fire.

(Gasping)

Then the spotlight moves to a cannon pointing straight up.

The tiger says, AHH!

The spotlight moves up to a ring of fire. The tiger holds its head.

(Screaming)

The tiger turns and sneaks away but the spotlight follows it.

(Whimpering)

The tiger smiles and the spotlight tries to get the tiger to return to the circus equipment on centre stage. The spotlight nudges the tiger.

(Crowd applauding)

Looking up the ladder, the tiger's legs quiver. The tiger runs backstage but the spotlight follows and drags the tiger back.

(Whimpering)

(Grunting)

(Groaning)

The tiger now wears a cape and eye mask. The tiger looks up to the top of the ladder.

(Gasping, whimpering)

Its legs shake and it jumps out of the spotlight and begins to casually mop the stage.

(Whistling)

When the spotlight follows, the tiger hides behind the cannon.

(Humming)

(Whimpering)

The tiger says, OH!

The spotlight follows. The tiger smiles and polishes the cannon.

(Crowd applauding)

(Sighing)

(Whimpering)

The spotlight follows the tiger to the elevated ring where it cleans the base of the apparatus.

(Grunting)

(Roaring)

The tiger says, OH!

The tiger moves on to some helium balloons and dusts them.

(Popping)

A balloon pops and the tiger leaps away quivering on the floor.

(Whimpering)

(Screaming)

(Whimpering)

The tiger stands up with a worried expression. The spotlight moves to the top of the ladder and then back down to the tiger's face. The light tugs at the tiger's face and it frowns.

(Crowd cheering)

(Drum roll playing)

With determination, the tiger begins to climb the ladder. At the top, the tiger gets ready to dive but notices how high it is.

(Shrieking)

The tiger stomps, then it closes its eyes and leans forward. The tiger stops itself and pounds on its face. The tiger stomps and balloons from below begin to rise.

(Roaring)

(Groaning)

The tiger watches the balloon float up. Then pop. The tiger jumps off the back of the platform landing on the stage.

The tiger stands up with a smile and picks up a balloon.

The tiger climbs back to the top of the ladder with the balloon. Looking down, the tiger quivers.

(Crowd cheering)

The tiger stands bravely and looks at the balloon.

The tiger extends its claws and with its eyes closed, pops the balloon. Spooked, the tiger dives off the front of the platform and bounces off the trampoline.

The spotlight follows as the tiger swings from a rope above the fire and falls feet-first into the cannon. The tiger is shot out of the cannon and smiles as it leaps through the ring of fire.

(Chuckling)

The tiger falls to the ground. The spotlight shines on the tiger as it proudly stands up. The tiger smiles and takes off its mask as roses are thrown onto the stage. The tiger takes bows and catches some roses.

A balloon floats by and the tiger grabs it by the string.

(Gasping)

The tiger looks at the balloon with a worried expression.

(Groaning)
