[Bee buzzes, happy music plays]

[Campers murmur, Bud laughs]

DESCRIPTION: Campers collect flowers, and Bud arrives with a bouquet of purple and white flowers.

BUD: Got some more blooms!

DESCRIPTION: Bud carries the bouquet to Louie, who arranges flowers in a vase.

LOUIE: Those are the most impressive bloomers I've seen since Gran hung her washing out!

[Both laugh]

BUD: Oh, good one!

[Both laugh]

ODO: You two are so good at arranging flowers.

DOODLES: And jokes.

[Campers laugh, hummingbird wings flutter quickly]

CAMP LEADER: More fresh flowers, how lovely! My...

[Camp Leader sniffs]

DESCRIPTION: Camp Leader takes a white daisy from Odo and sniffs it.

CAMP LEADER: Ooh, they do tickle your beak.

[Camp Leader chuckles, gasps, sneezes, clattering, campers gasp, bees buzz, soft music notes play]

CAMP LEADER: Oh! What a mess!

DOODLE: Don't worry, Camp Leader. Odo and I will clear the log away.

[Upbeat music plays]

DESCRIPTION: Doodle picks up a piece of wood with a beetle on it. Bugs walk and fly away from the log.

DOODLE: Ooh!

ODO: Beetles. Ah! Just like my old friend, Scuttle.

[Bee buzzes, Doodle giggles, toucans exclaim]

DESCRIPTION: A bee flies near Doodle’s head, then flies to Bud and Louie.

BUD: Get him away!

[Louie exclaims]

DESCRIPTION: Louie swats at the bee, then covers his head.

BUD: I don't like creepy-crawlies!

[Buzzing]

LOUIE: Ugh!

BUD: They're so creepy!

LOUIE: Yeah, and crawly!

[Louie chuckles, flowers rustle, Louie and Bud gasp]

DESCRIPTION: Louie grabs the flowers and holds them over his head as he stands on the edge of the vase. Bud jumps onto the other edge, and Louie swings the flowers at the bee. On the grass, beetles skitter around the vase.

BUD: Get away!

LOUIE: Shoo!

[Toucans exclaim]

ODO: It's not their fault their home got smooshed.

DOODLE: And now they have no place left to live.

ODO: Maybe we can build them a new place to live. A hotel! A bug hotel!

DOODLE: Ah! Do you think we can, Odo?

[Bee buzzes]

ODO: I know we can!

CAMP LEADER: What a marvelous idea! And perhaps John John can help build it.

[Bird chirps, toolbox thuds, measuring tape rattles]

DESCRIPTION: John John arrives and puts his toolbox on the grass. He picks up measuring tape.

JOHN JOHN: Hey-hey, one bug hotel coming up. Squawk!

[John John chuckles, bugs chitter, Louie and Bud grumble, feathers whoosh, bird sings, upbeat music plays, bee buzzes]

DESCRIPTION: Feathers wave. Later, Odo stands on a tree trunk in front of a table, with a small wooden building on it featuring round doors and windows on the sides. Odo steps off the stump, and he, Doodle, and John John watch bugs arrive.

ODO: I declare this deluxe bug hotel open!

JOHN JOHN: Check it out. Some bugs are checking in.

[Bugs chitter]

JOHN JOHN: Ha-ha, checking in!

[Doodle, Odo, and John John laugh]

DESCRIPTION: John John picks up his toolbox and walks away. Odo jumps on a stump and peers at a table inside the hotel. Postage stamps decorate the walls like posters, and a pencil leans against a wall.

ODO: Welcome! Very cozy. Snug as a bug.

[Odo and Doodle laugh, bugs chitter]

DOODLE: More guests, gosh! Hello. Welcome to the bug hotel.

[Buzzing]

ODO: We hope your stay is relaxing. And don't forget, breakfast is served from 8 till 10.

DOODLE: Wait, Odo, that's now! It's breakfast time.

DESCRIPTION: Doodle waves a twig with a leaf on a branch.

ODO: Here you go, bugs.

[Bugs whimper, tense music plays, pencil and cup thump]

DESCRIPTION: Doodle and Odo poke twigs into the hotel, and bugs skitter away. A red and purple beetle hides under the table.

DOODLE: Whoops, sorry.

[Beetles chitter]

DOODLE: I think we've served the wrong leaves.

DESCRIPTION: Doodle and Odo put their twigs in the empty bug house.

ODO: Sorry, beetles. My mom always says breakfast is the wildest time of the day.

[Beetles chitter]

DESCRIPTION: The beetles return and climb onto the leaves.

DOODLE: Enjoy your stay.

[Munching, whoosh, soft thuds]

DESCRIPTION: The beetles nibble the leaves, and outside, Odo and Doodle high-five. They jump down to the grass, smiling.

BOTH: Yay!

[Bugs chitter]

DESCRIPTION: Nearby, Louie and Bud gather flowers by their empty vase.

LOUIE: Ah, more flowers to arrange, Bud.

[Bee buzzes, Louie gasps]

DESCRIPTION: A bee lands on a flower, and Bud shakes it off. He and Louie jump up onto the edge of the vase.

BUD: Get off! Oh, horrible! These bugs are really bugging me!

[Toucans laugh]

DESCRIPTION: Bud and Louie glare at the bug hotel.

LOUIE: They shouldn't be here at all!

BUD: Something needs to do something, Louie! Or maybe some toucans need to do something.

[Buzzing, feathers whoosh, bird chirps]

DESCRIPTION: The bee flies into the bug hotel. Feathers wave. The next morning, Joe stands beneath the blue sky.

[Joe cock-a-doodle-doos, upbeat music plays]

JOE: Good morning, Forest Camp!

DESCRIPTION: Odo and Doodle enter the camp, walking past Joe, Flo, and Shirley.

ODO: Yoo-hoo, bugs, up you get! Rise and shine!

[Doodle gasps, feet skid]

DESCRIPTION: Doodle points at the broken table with a hole on the top.

DOODLE: Oh, no! Look!

[Odo gasps, tense music plays]

ODO: The bug hotel! It's gone!

DOODLE: Oh!

DESCRIPTION: Bud and Louie walk past Odo and Doodle. The toucans have narrowed eyes and slight smiles.

ODO: Um, Bud, Louie, the bugs are all gone.

BUD: Well, maybe they'll be happier somewhere else.

ODO: But why would the bugs want to leave?

[Odo grunts, whoosh, Doodle grunts, birds sing, mellow music plays]

DESCRIPTION: Odo and Doodle jump onto the tree stumps and look into the hole in the table. Bud and Louie discover the flowers drooping in their vase.

LOUIE: All our flowers look sad.

BUD: Never mind. We'll collect happy ones. Now that camp is bug-free, we can get it looking lovely again.

[Toucans grunt, leaves rustle]

DESCRIPTION: Bud and Louie jump into the bushes and look at the drooping flowers.

LOUIE: Hmm. No happy flowers growing here. That's odd. Let's look somewhere else.

[Toucans grunting, leaves rustle]

DESCRIPTION: Bud and Louie search the forest.

LOUIE: Found any happy flowers yet, Bud?

BUD: Not a sausage, Louie!

[Bud and Louie groan]

DESCRIPTION: The toucans return to their flowers in the vase.

LOUIE: Found, I feel pretty sad.

[Louie gasps]

LOUIE: Maybe that's how Odo feels now the bugs have gone!

[Bus and Louie whimper, feathers whoosh, bird sings, upbeat music plays]

DESCRIPTION: Louie and Bud look at the broken table. Feathers wave. Outside Camp Leader’s hut, Odo and Doodle look up at Camp Leader.

CAMP LEADER: Goodness! And you say all the bugs have vanished, Odo? Oh, my!

DESCRIPTION: Bud and Louie peek around the edge of the hut.

ODO: Maybe the bugs didn't feel welcome, Camp Leader.

CAMP LEADER: How sad. Bugs belong here just as much as all of us. Everyone living together is what makes this camp such a wonderful place to be.

[Toucans whimper]

DESCRIPTION: Bud and Louie walk to Odo, Doodle, and Camp Leader.

BUD: Oh, it was us! We did it.

LOUIE: We moved the bug hotel to the other side of the forest.

DOODLE AND ODO: Huh?!

BUD: We just thought bugs were horrible and creepy. But Camp Leader's right. Bugs deserve to be here just as much as we do.

ODO: You moved the bug hotel?

BUD: Yes! We're sorry.

[Toucans sob, wing rustles]

DESCRIPTION: Camp Leader puts her left wing around Bud and Louie’s shoulders as they hold each other and cry.

CAMP LEADER: Don't worry. We can go together and welcome them back. Can't we?

LOUIE: Huh?

[Odo and Doodle giggle, feathers rustle, bird sings, upbeat music plays, buzzing, panting]

DESCRIPTION: Feathers wave. Later, Bud, Louie, and Doodle carry the bug hotel across a clearing, following Camp Leader. Odo walks behind them, carrying a beetle. More beetles follow on the grass, and a butterfly and a bee follow above. The toucans put the bug hotel back on the table.

ODO: There, all back, safe and sound.

[Bugs chitter]

DESCRIPTION: Bugs enter the hotel.

LOUIE: Welcome back, everyone! We hope you enjoy your stay.

[Toucans chuckle, rustle]

DESCRIPTION: Doodle stands on a stump and extends a small branch towards a beetle.

BUD: You're always welcome at the bug hotel.

[Bugs chitter, munching]

DESCRIPTION: The beetle nibbles the leaf on the branch, and Doodle throws the branch away. Doodle runs across the grass and picks up another leafy branch.

DOODLE: Huh? Hup! Wow, look!

[Everyone gasps, Bud chuckles]

DESCRIPTION: Vibrant flowers bloom in the bushes.

CAMP LEADER: Well, yes. For flowers to be happy, they need help from bugs-- bees and beetles. No bugs means no happy flowers.

[Rustle, mellow music plays, buzzing]

DESCRIPTION: Bud and Louie pick flowers, and Bud puts a small bouquet in one of the hotel doorways.

BUD: Here you are, bugs. A special gift to say sorry to you.

[Bud chuckles, bee buzzes]

DESCRIPTION: Bud smiles as the bee lands on the flowers.

CAMP LEADER: Oh! They might just be your most beautiful bunch yet.

ODO: Nice and welcoming.

[Doodle giggles, bees buzz, wings rustle]

DESCRIPTION: Doodle nods. Camp Leader stands amongst the flowers and holds out her wings. Butterflies and bees flutter past her.

CAMP LEADER: You see, everything in the forest is connected. If you change one thing, it changes many things. That's how nature works.

DESCRIPTION: A beetle lands on Louie’s bill. They have long black hair and wear eyeglasses.

LOUIE: Look, there's John!

[Bird chirps]

ODO: John?

LOUIE: Yeah, heh-heh, we called that beetle John.

[Beetles chitter]

DESCRIPTION: Nearby, Bud smiles with three more long-haired beetles on his bill. Louie points at the beetles, and they wave.

LOUIE: And that one, Paul. That one is called George. And that one, Ringo.

BUD: And that ladybug there in the corner is Yoko.

[Everyone laughs, rock music plays]

DESCRIPTION: The beetles gather on the hotel roof with mini instruments. Yoko, a ladybug with long black hair, watches. The other campers arrive as the beetles play their instruments.

LOUIE: Yeah!

CAMP LEADER: Oh!

[Campers cheer, laugh]

DESCRIPTION: The campers gather around the bug hotel and watch the performance as more bugs skitter towards the hotel.

ODO: Yeah!

[Upbeat music plays]
