A menu features pictures of food, brushes, paint, scissors, and condiment bottles. Live-action video clips show Bec Hill, in her mid-thirties, holding her staff card. She has curly pink hair. She speaks on a banana-shaped telephone and sifts flour. In the animation, straws, paint bottles, sunglasses, and drinks move on a conveyor belt. In a live-action video clip, children paint.
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
Bec says, MAKEAWAY TAKEAWAY!
[Lively music plays]
In live action, Bec stands behind the counter in Makeaway Takeaway, holding a smartphone. She wears a yellow shirt, blue shorts, and a blue apron with suspenders.
Bec says, OH, HI! I'M BEC. AND WELCOME TO MAKEAWAY TAKEAWAY! I'M GOING TO MAKE A VIRAL VIDEO, SO WHILE I LOOK FOR INSPIRATION, HERE'S TODAY'S MENU.
[Whooshing, bubbling]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
Video clips show Bec scraping a wooden fork across pink paint, A girl with long blonde hair hugging a toy, and a bearded man watching a boy juggle.
Bec narrates, COMING UP ON TODAY'S SHOW, A TECHNIQUE YOU'LL NEVER FORK-GET... I GET A CALL FROM A CUSTOMER WHO'S REALLY EXCITED ABOUT AN UP-AND-COMING SLEEPOVER...ROLL UP, ROLL UP! WE DELIVER A SURPRISE TO A CIRCUS INSTRUCTOR...
[Whooshing]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
[Beeping, whooshing, disco music plays]
In Makeaway Takeaway, Bec activates her phone and dances.
Bec says, MAYBE I CAN GO VIRAL BY DANCING?
[Slide whistle, jaunty music plays]
Bec shuffle dances.
Bec says, THE MAKEAWAY SHUFFLE! OR, UM, THE FRESH FORK!
[Upbeat music plays, needle scratching record]
Bec dances, waving two wooden forks.
Bec says, ACTUALLY, THESE FORKS GIVE ME AN IDEA FOR…A TAKEAWAY TECHNIQUE!
[Animated scissors snipping]
Bec sits at a table with paper, paintbrushes, and paint.
Bec says, I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU HOW TO MAKE A TEXTURED PICTURE, USING RECYCLED FORKS.
[Mellow music plays]
Bec draws on the paper.
Bec says, LET'S DO A LANDSCAPE. DRAWING THE FOREGROUND... LET'S PUT A RIVER HERE. ADD SOME HILLS, AND A BIG MOUNTAIN IN THE BACKGROUND. IT'S TIME TO PAINT!
[Paint sloshing]
Bec paints the sky pink.
Bec says, I'M PAINTING MY SKY PINK. MY SKY IS ALL PAINTED, SO I'M GOING TO USE THE PRONGS OF MY FORK TO CREATE LONG, DIAGONAL LINES.
[Scratching]
Bec paints the mountain purple and uses a fork to make lines.
Bec says, TIME TO PAINT MY MOUNTAIN! I'M USING PURPLE. I'M LEAVING A WHITE GAP AT THE TOP, SO THAT MY PAINT DOESN'T MIX WITH THE SKY. TAKE MY FORK AGAIN, AND I'M GONNA DO THE SAME TECHNIQUE THAT I USED FOR THE SKY, BUT I'M GOING TO GO THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.
[Scratching]
Bec paints the hills blue. She uses the back of the fork handle to dapple the hills.
Bec says, LET'S PAINT THE HILLS BLUE. I'M USING THE BACK OF MY FORK TO CREATE A DAPPLED EFFECT. ONTO THE RIVER...LIGHT BLUE.
Bec paints the river light blue. She makes wavy lines in the river with the side of the fork.
Bec says, THIS RIVER LOOKS A LITTLE BIT TOO CALM, SO I'M GOING TO CREATE SOME WAVES, USING THE SIDE OF MY FORK. THAT WAY YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE WATER'S CRASHING INTO THE ROCKS. THAT'S MY RIVER. FOR MY FOREGROUND, I'M GOING TO USE A DARKER BLUE.
Bec paints land on the other side of the river dark blue. She makes lines with her fork and then crosses the lines with lines in the opposite direction, resembling a tic-tac-toe board.
Bec says, I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU ANOTHER TECHNIQUE: CROSS-HATCHING. NOW I JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR IT TO DRY.
[Animated paint splattering]
Later, Bec says, IT'S DRY! LET'S ADD A TREE.
[Upbeat music plays]
Bec squeezes dark pink paint out of a bottle and draws a tree.
Bec says, I'M MAKING MY TREE PINK. I'M PUTTING MY PAINT DIRECTLY ONTO THE PAPER. THEN, PUSHING THE PAINT AROUND WITH MY FORK, TO CREATE A TREE TRUNK. I'M PUTTING SOME LEAVES ON MY TREE. BACK TO MY FORK.
[Scratching]
Bec puts purple leaves on her tree and spreads the paint with her fork.
Bec says, SCRATCH THE PAINT AROUND... DON'T WORRY IF YOUR PAINT MIXES TOGETHER, THIS GIVES THE EFFECT OF SHADOWS. OOH, YES. HAPPY WITH THAT. LASTLY, LETS ADD SOME CLOUDS.
Bec squeezes light blue paint onto the pink sky and spreads it with the fork.
Bec says, I'M USING A CIRCULAR MOTION TO CREATE NICE, FLUFFY CLOUDS. AND THAT IS HOW YOU CREATE A TEXTURED PICTURE USING RECYCLED FORKS.
[Chiming, splattering, beeping, playful music plays]
At the counter, Bec activates her smartphone. She has a cat nose and whiskers painted on her face, cat ears on a headband, and wears furry fingerless gloves. Bec plays with a ball of pink yarn and pretends to lick her hands.
Bec says, MEOW!
Bec says, OH, THIS IS EMBARRASSING.
[Slide whistle]
Bec says, KITTEN VIDEOS ARE HUGE ON THE INTERNET, THEY ALWAYS GO VIRAL.
[Hacking cough]
Bec says, EXCUSE ME, I'VE GOT A FURBALL.
[Ringing, whirring, upbeat music plays]
A slip of paper prints beneath a screen on the wall.
Bec says, OH, A CUSTOMER! EH, BETTER DITCH THESE WHISKERS!
Bec walks to the screen.
The blonde-haired girl says, HELLO, MAKEAWAY TAKEAWAY! BEC, I NEED YOUR HELP! MY BEST FRIEND HAS INVITED ME OVER FOR A SLEEPOVER. I'M SO EXCITED, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BRING! CAN YOU HELP ME?
[Slide whistle]
Bec throws her cat ears over her shoulder.
Bec says, I CERTAINLY CAN. ONE ARTY DELIVERY, COMING RIGHT UP.
[Rustling, energetic music plays, whistling, footsteps pattering, whooshing, chiming]
Bec grabs the piece of paper and runs. She jumps into a comic panel, ties her shoelaces, and straightens her socks. Then, she snaps her suspenders, puts on a hat, and fastens a belt with dangling markers around her waist. Bec winks and gives a thumbs-up.
Bec says, LET'S DO THIS!
[Upbeat music plays]
The blonde-haired girl sniffs buttercups in a field. She dances, draws a picture, and rides a hobby horse.
She says, HI! I'M LEXI, AND I AM EIGHT YEARS OLD. I LOVE DANCING. AND ART. BUT WHEN I GROW UP, I WOULD LOVE TO BE A HORSE-RIDING INSTRUCTOR.
[Neighing]
The blonde-haired girl, Lexi, says, MY FAVOURITE THING IS HANGING OUT WITH MY FRIENDS. THIS WEEKEND, I'VE BEEN INVITED TO A SLEEPOVER! EXCEPT, THIS IS MY FIRST ONE, AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BRING! BEC, CAN YOU HELP?!
[Doorbell ringing]
Lexi says, THAT WAS QUICK!
[Whooshing, animated scissors snipping]
In an art studio, Lexi and Bec wear aprons.
Bec says, HI, LEXI!
Lexi says, HI.
Bec asks, HOW CAN I HELP?
Lexi replies, WELL, I'M GOING TO A SLEEPOVER, AND IT'S MY FIRST ONE, AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BRING. CAN YOU HELP ME, BEC?
Bec says, I SURE CAN! I KNOW WHAT TO MAKE. A SLEEPOVER SLOTH!
[Fanfare plays, cheering, applause]
A grey sloth plushie hangs from a pole.
Lexi says, SOUNDS GREAT.
[Splattering, upbeat music plays]
Bec says, TO START, I'VE GOT TWO PAIRS OF TIGHTS, WHICH HAVE HOLES IN THEM, SO I CAN'T WEAR THEM ANYMORE. BUT... THIS ONE STILL HAS A LEG THAT'S PRETTY GOOD, SO WE'RE GOING TO TURN THIS INTO A SLOTH BODY. WE'LL CUT THIS LEG OFF.
Bec cuts a leg off one of the leggings.
Bec says, THERE WE GO! WE'LL COME BACK TO THE OTHER TIGHTS LATER. LEXI, CAN I GET YOU TO GRAB THAT STUFFING FOR ME, PLEASE?
Lexi moves two bowls of stuffing closer to Bec.
Lexi says, BOTH OF THEM?
Lexi stuffs the body of the sloth. Bec ties a knot beneath the stuffing, creating a head for the sloth.
Bec says, YEAH! WE'RE GONNA NEED A LOT. AND IF I ROLL THIS TIGHT LEG UP, I'LL GET YOU TO STUFF THAT IN THERE. WHAA, THAT'S GOOD! I TOOK THIS OUT OF AN OLD BURST CUSHION. STUFF IT IN, THERE WE GO. THAT LOOKS ABOUT RIGHT! I'M GOING TO TIE A KNOT SO THE STUFFING DOESN'T FALL OUT, AND TIE THAT NICE AND TIGHT... TO MAKE THE SLOTH'S BODY, I'VE GOT A LARGE BOTTLE FROM THE RECYCLING, AND I'VE TAKEN THE LID OFF. NOW I'LL GET YOU TO PUT THAT INSIDE.
Lexi says, GOING UP.
[Rustling]
Lexi pushes the empty plastic bottle into the sloth’s body.
Bec says, GOING UP! WHOOP! IT'S LIKE A BIG OLD SAUSAGE.
[Lexi giggling]
Bec says, HERE WE GO! EXCELLENT. AND WE'LL TIE A KNOT IN THE END.
Lexi ties a knot at the end of the bottle.
Lexi says, HERE WE GO!
Bec says, DONE! NOW WE'LL JUST TRIM THE END OFF. WATCH YOUR FINGERS.
Bec trims the fabric off the end of the sloth’s body.
Lexi says, AND THERE WE GO.
Bec says, THERE WE ARE! AND IT'S ONE SLOTH'S BODY. TIME TO ADD SOME P.V.A!
Bec and Lexi brush P.V.A. onto the body of the sloth.
WE'RE PUTTING PVA OVER THE BODY, SO THAT THE TIGHTS STICK TO THE BOTTLE. IT CAN GET A BIT MESSY, SO YOU MIGHT WANT TO PUT DOWN SOME NEWSPAPER FIRST. AND THIS IS YOUR FIRST SLEEPOVER, YOU SAID.
Lexi says, YES.
Bec asks, AND WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO?
Lexi replies, I WOULD LIKE TO WATCH A FILM IN BED AND EAT SNACKS.
Bec says, AW, THAT SOUNDS GOOD! ONCE THE BODY'S COVERED IN P.V.A, WE'LL LEAVE IT TO DRY.
[Animated paint splattering]
Bec says, BACK TO THE OTHER TIGHTS. THERE'S SOME HOLES IN THE TOES...
Bec pokes her finger through a hole.
Bec says, "HELLO!" BUT WE CAN REUSE THEM TO MAKE THE ARMS AND LEGS. CUT ONE OF THESE UP FOR YOU...
Bec cuts a leg off a legging and gives it to Lexi. She cuts another leg.
Lexi says, THANK YOU!
Bec says, ONE FOR ME. AND LET'S JUST TIE A KNOT IN THE END.
They both tie a knot at the end of their legging.
Bec says, OKAY...WE'LL GRAB SOME OF THAT STUFFING...AND PUT IT INSIDE. AND WE WANT TO FILL UP MOST OF THE WAY, BUT NOT QUITE, AND I'LL SHOW YOU WHY IN A SECOND.
Bec and Lexi stuff the two legs.
Bec says, LOOKIN' PRETTY GOOD! WE'RE JUST GOING TO TIE A KNOT IN THE END. AND I'LL LEAVE SOME SPACE.
[Upbeat music continues]
Bec and Lexi put knots at the end of the legs.
Bec says, AND WE WANT A BIT LOOSE, 'CAUSE WE'RE GOING TO GO AROUND THE MIDDLE... PUT YOUR FINGER IN THE MIDDLE. AND WE WANT TO SQUISH THEM, SO THERE'S A GAP.
Bec and Lexi squish the stuffing in the middle of the leg.
Bec says, THAT'S IT. THESE ARE READY TO ADD TO THE BODY. WE'RE JUST USING SOME STRONG GLUE. AND JUST PUT A LITTLE BIT THERE. BLUB, BLUB, BLUB, BLUB...
Bec applies the glue, and she and Lexi squish the leg stuffing.
Bec says, LEXI, I THINK YOU CAN POP THE SLOTH'S BODY ON TOP. THAT LOOKS GOOD!
Lexi puts the sloth’s body on the legs.
Bec says, SQUISH IT DOWN! LOVE IT! IT'S STARTING TO LOOK A LITTLE BIT MORE LIKE A SLOTH NOW, ISN'T IT? AND THEN WE DO THIS.
Bec and Lexi each grab the ends of the legs and put them together.
Bec says, OH!
[Lexi giggling]
Bec says, YOU SEE WHERE WE'RE GOING NOW, HEY!
Lexi says, YES.
Bec says, WE'LL LEAVE THIS TO DRY.
[Splatting]
Animated paint splatters.
In the art studio, Bec says, WE'RE GOING TO STORE ALL OF THE THINGS YOU'LL NEED FOR YOUR SLEEPOVER IN HERE. SO, WE NEED TO CUT A LITTLE DOOR IN THERE. I'M JUST DRAWING THREE SIDES OF A RECTANGLE.
Bec draws on the body of the sloth.
Bec says, AND TO CUT IT OUT, IT'S A NEAT TRICK, I JUST PINCH THE BOTTLE AND GIVE IT A LITTLE SNIP THERE. WATCH YOUR FINGERS. YOU MIGHT LIKE TO ASK AN ADULT TO HELP YOU HERE.
[Scissors snipping, whooshing, upbeat music plays]
Bec cuts along the lines and lifts the little door, revealing the inside of the bottle.
Bec says, AND NOW THE SLOTH HAS A LITTLE POCKET IN ITS BELLY. NEXT WE'RE ADDING A LITTLE LATCH. SO I'VE GOT THESE SPLIT PINS AND I'M PUSHING IT THROUGH...YOU MIGHT LIKE TO ASK AN ADULT TO HELP YOU HERE. PUT IT ON THIS SIDE...
[Popping]
Bec pushes a pin through the door.
Bec says, AND WE'LL ADD ANOTHER SPLIT PIN HERE.
[Popping]
She puts a second pin on the body below the pin on the door.
Bec says, AND WE'LL SPLIT IT OPEN ON THE OTHER SIDE. TO SECURE THE LATCH, I'VE GOT A HAIR ELASTIC.
[Twanging]
Bec stretches the hair elastic.
Bec says, AND I'M JUST LOOPING THAT OVER THE SPLIT PINS.
Bec loops the hair elastic around the pins, holding the door shut. She and Lexi put hook and loop tape on the hands and feet.
Bec says, WE'RE GOING TO ADD SOME HOOK AND LOOP TAPE TO THE HANDS AND FEET. THIS IS SO YOU CAN HANG YOUR SLOTH UP SOMEWHERE, MAYBE ON YOUR BUNK BED. AND YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT WILL MATCH UP. JUST DOING THIS TO MAKE SURE. DOES YOURS MATCH?
They put the hands together and the feet together.
Bec says, AW, LOOK AT THAT! AND WE'LL GIVE THE SLOTH SOME CLAWS. WE CUT THESE OUT EARLIER. BUB-BUB-BUB-BUB-BUB...
Bec holds the paper claws by her mouth. Lexi has them over her eyes.
Bec says, AH! WE'RE USING DOUBLE-SIDED TAPE, BUT YOU COULD ALSO USE STRONG GLUE. WHY DON'T YOU LOOK AFTER OUR LITTLE FRIEND, WHILE I MAKE A FACE. TO MAKE A SLOTH FACE, I'VE CUT OUT AN OVAL, AND SOME BROWN BITS, AND I'VE GOT SOME GOOGLY EYES.
Bec adds brown stripes, googly eyes, a nose, and a smile to the sloth’s face and attaches the face to the sloth.
Bec says, SHALL WE STICK IT ON? PUT THE FACE ON...AND THERE IS THE SLEEPOVER SLOTH. LEXI, YOU'VE GOT A FEW THINGS THERE, WHICH I THINK YOU SHOULD TAKE TO YOUR SLEEPOVER. SO, YOU CAN BRING THEM OVER.
Lexi says, TOOTHBRUSH, HAIRBRUSH, HEADBAND, AND SOME PYJAMAS.
Lexi puts her items in the sloth and uses the hair elastic to close the little door.
Lexi says, THERE WE GO!
Bec says, ALL READY FOR YOUR SLEEPOVER!
Lexi says, THANK YOU.
Lexi hugs her sloth.
Bec says, AW!
[[Animated paint splattering, upbeat music plays]
Later, Lexi sits on her bed and packs items in her sloth.
Lexi says, MY SLEEPOVER SLOTH IS AWESOME! THANK YOU.
On a staircase, a blonde-haired woman says, ARE YOU READY? HAILEY'S WAITING.
Lexi says, I AM NOW! THANKS, BEC! BYE!
[Animated scissors snipping, whooshing]
In Makeaway Takeaway, Bec says, ANOTHER HAPPY CUSTOMER!
[Typing, dinging]
Bec puts the slip of paper into a tray.
Bec says, NOW BACK TO MY VIRAL VIDEO...
[Beeping, tango music plays, whooshing]
Bec takes a mop out of a bucket and dances with it. The mop has a box on top and a smiling face drawn on the side.
Bec says, I'M DANCING WITH MY UPCYCLED PARTNER. ANTON!
Bec says, OH! ANTON! WHAA!
[Slide whistle, clattering]
Bec steps in the bucket and stumbles.
Bec says, THINK I MIGHT LEAVE IT TO THE PROS. HERE'S SOME PAPER PUPPETRY.
[Whooshing, zooming]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
[Upbeat music plays]
The feet move up and down on a drawing of an elephant wearing a tutu and ballet shoes. Bec pulls on two slips of paper at the top of the drawing.
Bec says, LET'S SEE HOW IT'S DONE!
The two slips of paper have the feet on the end. They move up and down as Bec moves them.
[Whooshing, zooming]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
[Upbeat music plays]
By the counter, Bec stands with the bucket over her head.
Bec, muffled, says, I T-TRIED TO GO VIRAL WITH THE ICE BUCKET CHALLENGE, BUT THE B-B-BUCKET FROZE TO MY HEAD.
[Creaking]
Bec pulls on the bucket.
Bec says, UGH!
[Popping, sighing]
She pulls the bucket off her head.
Bec says, I THINK I NEED SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT MORE CALMING. LIKE A MEGA MINI MAKE.
[[Animated paint splattering, upbeat music plays]
Bec sits at a small table with a bottle, paper, a balloon, and scissors.
Bec says, I'M GOING TO MAKE A FRUITY STRESS-BALL. I'VE FILLED THIS RECYCLED PLASTIC BOTTLE WITH FLOUR, AND I HAVE A RED BALLOON. I'VE GONE WITH RED BECAUSE I'M GOING TO MAKE A STRAWBERRY. BLOW IT UP, BUT NOT TOO MUCH.
[Inhaling, whooshing, slide whistle]
Bec blows up the balloon.
Bec says, POP IT OVER THE END OF YOUR BOTTLE.
[Creaking]
Bec puts the balloon over the end of the bottle.
Bec says, MAKE SURE IT'S AIRTIGHT. TIP IT OVER...
Bec tips the bottle and pours flour into the balloon.
Bec says, THE REASON THAT I BLEW MY BALLOON UP WAS SO THAT THE AIR IN THE BALLOON COULD GO INTO THE BOTTLE WHILE THE FLOUR GOES INTO THE BALLOON. AGAIN, MAKE SURE YOU'RE PINCHING YOUR BALLOON, SO THE AIR DOESN'T ESCAPE, AND THEN... I'M JUST GOING TO LET THE AIR OUT VERY, VERY SLOWLY. IF YOU DO IT TOO FAST, IT'S JUST GOING TO SHOOT FLOUR EVERYWHERE.
[Squeaking]
Bec lets air out of the balloon and ties a knot at the end. She squeezes it.
Bec says, TIE A KNOT IN THE END... JUST MAKE SURE THAT'S AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE. OOH! I FEEL CALM ALREADY! NOW IT NEEDS A STALK. SO, I'VE GOT SOME GREEN CRAFT FOAM, AND I'M GOING TO FOLD IT IN HALF, SO I CAN USE IT TO COVER UP THE KNOT ON MY BALLOON.
Bec folds the craft foam paper and cuts out a stalk. She folds it over the knot, covering both sides. Bec puts the stalk down on the table.
Bec says, THAT'S MY STALK. AND YOU'LL SEE THAT THAT COVERS UP THE KNOT. I'M GONNA PUT THAT TO THE SIDE FOR NOW, BECAUSE I WANT MY STRAWBERRY TO HAVE SOME SEEDS! I'VE GOT A WHITE PEN.
[Boinging]
Bec puts white dots on the balloon.
Bec says, ONCE YOUR STRAWBERRY IS COVERED UP WITH SEEDS, WE CAN STICK THAT STALK ON. I'M USING DOUBLE-SIDED TAPE, BUT YOU COULD ALSO USE STRONG GLUE. GET THAT OVER THERE...
She beds the stalk over the knot.
Bec says, AND THERE YOU HAVE IT. MY STRAWBERRY FRUITY STRESS BALL. I'LL ADD THIS WITH THE OTHERS.
Bec points to other stress balls in a bowl and puts the strawberry in.
Bec says, MY PLUM, MY BANANA, MY ORANGE, AND MY APPLE. AND NOW MY STRAWBERRY. SQUISH THESE WHENEVER YOU NEED SOME CALM IN YOUR LIFE.
[Animated paint splattering, beeping]
Bec activates her smartphone. She takes a golden ball cap off the mop in the bucket and backs away.
Bec says, I'M TRYING A NEW VIRAL CHALLENGE. I CALL IT THE MAKEAWAY FLYING FLING. I'VE GOTTA GET THIS HAT ONTO THIS MOP HANDLE.
[Drumroll plays, slide whistle, crashing, footsteps running, Bec exhaling, whooshing, crashing, upbeat music plays]
Bec throws the hat over the mop and rushes across the room. She returns with the hat, throws it again, and misses. She retrieves the hat and returns to her spot.
Bec says, ALRIGHT. HAT ON THE MOP HANDLE.
[Slide whistle, whooshing, upbeat music plays, cheering, applause]
The hat lands on the mop handle.
Bec says, I DID IT! I'M FINALLY GOING TO GO VIRAL!
[Phone buzzing]
A video camera with a line through it appears on Bec’s smartphone.
Bec says, OH NO, I FORGOT TO PRESS RECORD! NO!
[Whooshing, ringing]
Bec says, OOH! A CUSTOMER.
[Slide whistle, upbeat music plays]
A boy with short black hair appears on the screen on the wall.
The black-haired boy says, IT'S THE MAKE OF THE DAY! HI, BEC. I'M ELIAS, AND I'M FROM GLASGOW.
Bec says, HI, ELIAS!
[Whirring]
On the conveyor belt, two clear plastic soup pots with lids, a clear container, and colourful round candy move past Bec.
The black-haired boy, Elias, asks, WHAT CAN YOU MAKE OUT OF THESE THREE INGREDIENTS? SOUP POTS, A SALAD POT, AND SOME SWEETS.
Bec says, HM. TELL ME, ELIAS... IF YOU COULD BE ANY FOOD, WHAT WOULD YOU BE?
Elias says, ERM, CARAMEL SHORTCAKE. IT'S MY FAVOURITE, AND I HOPE EVERYONE ELSE LIKES IT TOO.
Bec says, YES, I DO! I'M SENSING A SWEET TOOTH HERE.
[Elias chuckling, fingers snapping]
Bec snaps her fingers.
Bec says, I'VE GOT IT. ONE MAKE OF THE DAY, COMING RIGHT UP!
[Whooshing, zooming]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
Bec stands at a table with the ingredients, glue, a ruler, and paintbrushes.
Bec says, I'M GOING TO MAKE A SWEET DISPENSER, USING ELIAS' INGREDIENTS.
[Slide whistle, fanfare plays, applause, cheering, animated paint splattering, upbeat music plays]
A finished sweet dispenser appears, with the candy at the top and a slot at the bottom to dispense it.
Bec says, MY FIRST INGREDIENTS? THE SOUP POTS. POPPING THE LIDS OFF...
[Tapping]
Bec takes the lids off the two soup pots and traces a bottle lid on each lid.
Bec says, TRACE AROUND A BOTTLE TOP, ON THE SIDE OF YOUR LID. AND I'M GOING TO DRAW A RECTANGLE AT THE BASE OF MY LARGE SOUP POT... AND CUT THEM OUT.
Bec draws a rectangle on the side of the large soup pot, just above the base.
Bec says, I'M PUSHING SOME SCISSORS INTO THE CENTRE OF WHERE I NEED TO CUT.
[Popping]
Bec pushes the scissors through the soup pot and cuts it.
Bec says, YOU MIGHT WANT AN ADULT TO HELP YOU WITH THIS BIT.
[Whooshing, animated scissors snipping]
Bec says, ALL DONE! POP THE LIDS BACK ON.
[Clicking, mellow music plays]
Bec says, I'M ALSO ADDING A DIP POT FROM MY RECYCLING TO THIS MAKE. I'M GONNA PAINT THESE RED.
Bec paints the dip pot and lid red.
Bec says, I'VE MIXED PAINT WITH P.V.A., SO IT STICKS TO THE PLASTIC. AND OF COURSE, YOUR SWEET DISPENSER CAN BE ANY COLOUR YOU LIKE. I PAINT MY LARGE SOUP POT.
Bec paints the large soup pot red.
[Animated paint splattering]
Bec says, I'M USING MY SECOND INGREDIENT, THE RECYCLED SALAD POT, AS THE BASE. I'M PAINTING IT GREY.
Bec paints the overturned salad pot grey.
Bec says, LOOK HOW MY PAINT IS STICKING TO THE PLASTIC. PERFECT. PUT IT ASIDE AND WAIT FOR IT TO DRY!
[Animated paint splattering, mellow music plays]
Bec says, THEY'RE DRY! I'M GOING TO CONSTRUCT MY SWEET DISPENSER. I'VE GOT MY BASE. STICKING THE BIG SOUP POT ON TOP...
Bec puts the large soup pot on the overturned grey base. She tapes the dip pot to the base of the clear small soup pot.
Bec says, I'M USING DOUBLE-SIDED TAPE, BUT YOU COULD ALSO USE STRONG GLUE. I'M STICKING THAT ON TOP THERE. I'VE GOT A STRIP OF GREY CARD THAT I'M STICKING AROUND THE EDGE OF MY BIG SOUP POT.
She wraps grey paper around the lid of the big soup pot and then puts the small soup pot on top of the large one, turning it until the holes in the lids line up.
Bec says, POP ON THE LID. AND AS YOU CAN SEE, WHEN YOU TWIST AND TURN, THE TWO HOLES MEET WHERE THE SWEET WILL DROP DOWN. I NEED SOMETHING TO CATCH THE SWEETS, SO I'M USING A SMALLER PIECE OF GREY CARD, THAT I'M ATTACHING JUST ON EITHER SIDE OF THAT HOLE WE CUT OUT.
Bec puts the strip of grey paper around the small rectangular hole near the base of the large soup pot. She draws lines on the grey paper.
Bec says, AND WITH A BLACK MARKER, I'LL ADD SOME DETAILS.
[Animated paint splattering]
Bec says, THIS NEEDS A BUTTON. REMEMBER THAT BOTTLE TOP THAT I USED EARLIER? STICKING THAT THERE.
Bec attaches a bottle lid to the grey paper around the lid of the large soup pot.
Bec says, NOW FOR THE FINAL INGREDIENT! THE SWEETS.
[Rattling, clicking]
Bec pours the sweets into the small soup pot and puts the lid on.
Bec says, PUT THAT OVER THERE...
[Clicking, sweets rattling]
Bec attaches the base to the small soup pot and then flips the dispenser over so the sweets are at the top.
Bec says, FLIP IT OVER... AND THERE'S YOUR SWEET DISPENSER. LET'S GIVE IT A SPIN!
[Rattling, happy music plays]
Bec turns the pot on the top, and sweets drop into the dispenser.
Bec says, BRILLIANT! I'M GOING TO PACKAGE THIS UP FOR ELIAS.
[Rustling]
Bec puts the dispenser in a blue bag and puts the bag in a slot on the wall.
Bec says, HERE YOU ARE, ELIAS, YOUR VERY OWN SWEET DISPENSER!
[Beeping]
Bec pushes a button.
[Animated paint splattering, upbeat music plays, giggling]
At home, Elias takes the sweet dispenser out of the blue bag.
Elias says, WHOA...I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT! THANKS, BEC!
In Makeaway Takeaway, Bec says, SWEET! ENJOY, ELIAS! ANOTHER HAPPY CUSTOMER.
Bec gives a thumbs-up.
[Whooshing, zooming]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
[Beeping, upbeat music plays]
Bec activates her smartphone. She backs away from the mop handle, holding the gold ball cap.
Bec says, I'VE SET MY PHONE TO VOICE CONTROL, SO I DON'T FORGET TO PRESS RECORD. OKAY. PHONE? RECORD VIDEO.
The smartphone says, UPLOADING ALL VIDEOS.
Bec says, NO, DON'T UPLOAD ALL MY PRACTICE VIDEOS TO THE INTERNET!
The smartphone says, SENDING ALL VIDEOS TO THE INTERNET.
NO! PHONE, I AM YOUR MASTER, BEC HILL. CANCEL! CANCEL!
The smartphone says, CANCELLING BEC HILL.
[Beeping, Bec groaning]
Bec picks up her smartphone.
Bec says, OH NO, IT SENT ALL MY PRACTICE VIDEOS TO THE INTERNET!
[Beeping]
Bec says, UGH!
[Beeping, grunting, chiming, crashing, upbeat music plays]
Flashbacks show Bec dancing, pulling the bucket off her head, walking with a foot in the bucket, coughing, and dancing with the forks. Likes appear beside her video.
Bec says, WOW! PEOPLE REALLY LIKE WATCHING ME MAKE A FOOL OF MYSELF.
[Banana telephone ringing]
Bec says, THE BANANA PHONE!
[Whooshing, beeping]
Bec picks up the phone.
Bec says, HELLO, MAKEAWAY TAKEAWAY, HOW CAN I HELP?
On a split screen, a boy wearing a red hat, eyeglasses, a white shirt, and a red suit holds a cell phone.
The boy, Casey, says, HI, BEC. IT'S CASEY HERE. COULD YOU DELIVER AN ARTY SURPRISE FOR OUR CIRCUS CLUB?
Bec says, AWESOME! I LOVE A CHALLENGE. SEE YOU SOON!
[Beeping]
Bec ends the call.
[Slide whistle, whooshing, zooming]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
[Circus music plays]
At the circus club, children practice juggling, swinging on a trapeze, ribbon work, hula hooping, and practicing aerial silks.
Bec says, OH, WOW...
[Bec gasping]
Bec says, HI, EVERYONE!
The children say, HI!
Bec says, SO YOU WANT ME TO DELIVER A SURPRISE FOR YOUR CIRCUS CLUB?
Casey says, YEAH. MY AND MY FRIENDS ARE MEMBERS HERE AT CIRCUS MASH.
Bec says, OOH, CIRCUS MASH!
A blue-eyed girl says, THANKS TO JOE, WE'VE LEARNT ALL THESE AMAZING TRICKS!
Bec says, AH, SO JOE'S YOUR COACH?
The children say, YEAH.
Bec says, AH.
A girl with two braids says, AND WE'D LOVE IT IF YOU CAN MAKE SOME AMAZING ART FOR US.
[Whooshing, energetic music plays]
Bec says, YEAH, I CAN DO THAT! LET'S GET JUGGLING AND MAKE SOME ART!
[Energetic music continues, rustling, whooshing, splashing, horn tooting, slide whistles]
Bec spreads long red and white strips of fabric side by side on the floor. She puts large rectangles of purple paper at one end of the rows. She gathers sparkling clothes and puts them on the fabric. She whips a white ribbon in the air and adds it and a coiled black rope to her pile. Casey dumps a bucket of sparkling ribbon on Bec. Bec adds a horn, rods, balls, and plates to her pile. Bec uses the black rope to outline a hand on white fabric. She makes a bowtie out of oversized, spotted clown shoes. She gathers wigs, positions them on her art, and places a red ball as a nose on a face.
Bec says, I THINK THAT SHOULD JUST ABOUT DO IT! CASEY, MINNIE, CAN YOU GET JOE AND YOUR FRIENDS?
Casey and the girl with two braids, Minnie, say, YES!
[Footsteps running, upbeat music plays]
Casey and Minnie hold the hands of a brown-haired man with a bandana tied around his eyes. They lead him to the art, and the other children follow them.
Minnie says JOE, WE JUST WANTED TO SAY A BIG THANK YOU FOR CREATING THIS AMAZING CIRCUS CLUB. TAKE A LOOK!
[Upbeat music plays]
Joe removes the bandana. On the floor, a fabric clown riding a rope unicycle on a tightrope juggles pins.
Joe says, YOU GUYS, THAT'S AMAZING!
(LAUGHING)
Bec says, THANK YOU SO MUCH! THAT'S ANOTHER BRILLIANT DAY OF DELIVERING ART TO YOUR DOOR! SEE YOU NEXT TIME ON...
Everyone says, MAKEAWAY TAKEAWAY!

Bec says, OH, HI! I'M BEC. AND WELCOME TO MAKEAWAY TAKEAWAY! I'M GOING TO MAKE A VIRAL VIDEO, SO WHILE I LOOK FOR INSPIRATION, HERE'S TODAY'S MENU.
[Whooshing, bubbling]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
Video clips show Bec scraping a wooden fork across pink paint, A girl with long blonde hair hugging a toy, and a bearded man watching a boy juggle.
Bec narrates, COMING UP ON TODAY'S SHOW, A TECHNIQUE YOU'LL NEVER FORK-GET... I GET A CALL FROM A CUSTOMER WHO'S REALLY EXCITED ABOUT AN UP-AND-COMING SLEEPOVER...ROLL UP, ROLL UP! WE DELIVER A SURPRISE TO A CIRCUS INSTRUCTOR...
[Whooshing]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
[Beeping, whooshing, disco music plays]
In Makeaway Takeaway, Bec activates her phone and dances.
Bec says, MAYBE I CAN GO VIRAL BY DANCING?
[Slide whistle, jaunty music plays]
Bec shuffle dances.
Bec says, THE MAKEAWAY SHUFFLE! OR, UM, THE FRESH FORK!
[Upbeat music plays, needle scratching record]
Bec dances, waving two wooden forks.
Bec says, ACTUALLY, THESE FORKS GIVE ME AN IDEA FOR…A TAKEAWAY TECHNIQUE!
[Animated scissors snipping]
Bec sits at a table with paper, paintbrushes, and paint.
Bec says, I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU HOW TO MAKE A TEXTURED PICTURE, USING RECYCLED FORKS.
[Mellow music plays]
Bec draws on the paper.
Bec says, LET'S DO A LANDSCAPE. DRAWING THE FOREGROUND... LET'S PUT A RIVER HERE. ADD SOME HILLS, AND A BIG MOUNTAIN IN THE BACKGROUND. IT'S TIME TO PAINT!
[Paint sloshing]
Bec paints the sky pink.
Bec says, I'M PAINTING MY SKY PINK. MY SKY IS ALL PAINTED, SO I'M GOING TO USE THE PRONGS OF MY FORK TO CREATE LONG, DIAGONAL LINES.
[Scratching]
Bec paints the mountain purple and uses a fork to make lines.
Bec says, TIME TO PAINT MY MOUNTAIN! I'M USING PURPLE. I'M LEAVING A WHITE GAP AT THE TOP, SO THAT MY PAINT DOESN'T MIX WITH THE SKY. TAKE MY FORK AGAIN, AND I'M GONNA DO THE SAME TECHNIQUE THAT I USED FOR THE SKY, BUT I'M GOING TO GO THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.
[Scratching]
Bec paints the hills blue. She uses the back of the fork handle to dapple the hills.
Bec says, LET'S PAINT THE HILLS BLUE. I'M USING THE BACK OF MY FORK TO CREATE A DAPPLED EFFECT. ONTO THE RIVER...LIGHT BLUE.
Bec paints the river light blue. She makes wavy lines in the river with the side of the fork.
Bec says, THIS RIVER LOOKS A LITTLE BIT TOO CALM, SO I'M GOING TO CREATE SOME WAVES, USING THE SIDE OF MY FORK. THAT WAY YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE WATER'S CRASHING INTO THE ROCKS. THAT'S MY RIVER. FOR MY FOREGROUND, I'M GOING TO USE A DARKER BLUE.
Bec paints land on the other side of the river dark blue. She makes lines with her fork and then crosses the lines with lines in the opposite direction, resembling a tic-tac-toe board.
Bec says, I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU ANOTHER TECHNIQUE: CROSS-HATCHING. NOW I JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR IT TO DRY.
[Animated paint splattering]
Later, Bec says, IT'S DRY! LET'S ADD A TREE.
[Upbeat music plays]
Bec squeezes dark pink paint out of a bottle and draws a tree.
Bec says, I'M MAKING MY TREE PINK. I'M PUTTING MY PAINT DIRECTLY ONTO THE PAPER. THEN, PUSHING THE PAINT AROUND WITH MY FORK, TO CREATE A TREE TRUNK. I'M PUTTING SOME LEAVES ON MY TREE. BACK TO MY FORK.
[Scratching]
Bec puts purple leaves on her tree and spreads the paint with her fork.
Bec says, SCRATCH THE PAINT AROUND... DON'T WORRY IF YOUR PAINT MIXES TOGETHER, THIS GIVES THE EFFECT OF SHADOWS. OOH, YES. HAPPY WITH THAT. LASTLY, LETS ADD SOME CLOUDS.
Bec squeezes light blue paint onto the pink sky and spreads it with the fork.
Bec says, I'M USING A CIRCULAR MOTION TO CREATE NICE, FLUFFY CLOUDS. AND THAT IS HOW YOU CREATE A TEXTURED PICTURE USING RECYCLED FORKS.
[Chiming, splattering, beeping, playful music plays]
At the counter, Bec activates her smartphone. She has a cat nose and whiskers painted on her face, cat ears on a headband, and wears furry fingerless gloves. Bec plays with a ball of pink yarn and pretends to lick her hands.
Bec says, MEOW!
Bec says, OH, THIS IS EMBARRASSING.
[Slide whistle]
Bec says, KITTEN VIDEOS ARE HUGE ON THE INTERNET, THEY ALWAYS GO VIRAL.
[Hacking cough]
Bec says, EXCUSE ME, I'VE GOT A FURBALL.
[Ringing, whirring, upbeat music plays]
A slip of paper prints beneath a screen on the wall.
Bec says, OH, A CUSTOMER! EH, BETTER DITCH THESE WHISKERS!
Bec walks to the screen.
The blonde-haired girl says, HELLO, MAKEAWAY TAKEAWAY! BEC, I NEED YOUR HELP! MY BEST FRIEND HAS INVITED ME OVER FOR A SLEEPOVER. I'M SO EXCITED, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BRING! CAN YOU HELP ME?
[Slide whistle]
Bec throws her cat ears over her shoulder.
Bec says, I CERTAINLY CAN. ONE ARTY DELIVERY, COMING RIGHT UP.
[Rustling, energetic music plays, whistling, footsteps pattering, whooshing, chiming]
Bec grabs the piece of paper and runs. She jumps into a comic panel, ties her shoelaces, and straightens her socks. Then, she snaps her suspenders, puts on a hat, and fastens a belt with dangling markers around her waist. Bec winks and gives a thumbs-up.
Bec says, LET'S DO THIS!
[Upbeat music plays]
The blonde-haired girl sniffs buttercups in a field. She dances, draws a picture, and rides a hobby horse.
She says, HI! I'M LEXI, AND I AM EIGHT YEARS OLD. I LOVE DANCING. AND ART. BUT WHEN I GROW UP, I WOULD LOVE TO BE A HORSE-RIDING INSTRUCTOR.
[Neighing]
The blonde-haired girl, Lexi, says, MY FAVOURITE THING IS HANGING OUT WITH MY FRIENDS. THIS WEEKEND, I'VE BEEN INVITED TO A SLEEPOVER! EXCEPT, THIS IS MY FIRST ONE, AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BRING! BEC, CAN YOU HELP?!
[Doorbell ringing]
Lexi says, THAT WAS QUICK!
[Whooshing, animated scissors snipping]
In an art studio, Lexi and Bec wear aprons.
Bec says, HI, LEXI!
Lexi says, HI.
Bec asks, HOW CAN I HELP?
Lexi replies, WELL, I'M GOING TO A SLEEPOVER, AND IT'S MY FIRST ONE, AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BRING. CAN YOU HELP ME, BEC?
Bec says, I SURE CAN! I KNOW WHAT TO MAKE. A SLEEPOVER SLOTH!
[Fanfare plays, cheering, applause]
A grey sloth plushie hangs from a pole.
Lexi says, SOUNDS GREAT.
[Splattering, upbeat music plays]
Bec says, TO START, I'VE GOT TWO PAIRS OF TIGHTS, WHICH HAVE HOLES IN THEM, SO I CAN'T WEAR THEM ANYMORE. BUT... THIS ONE STILL HAS A LEG THAT'S PRETTY GOOD, SO WE'RE GOING TO TURN THIS INTO A SLOTH BODY. WE'LL CUT THIS LEG OFF.
Bec cuts a leg off one of the leggings.
Bec says, THERE WE GO! WE'LL COME BACK TO THE OTHER TIGHTS LATER. LEXI, CAN I GET YOU TO GRAB THAT STUFFING FOR ME, PLEASE?
Lexi moves two bowls of stuffing closer to Bec.
Lexi says, BOTH OF THEM?
Lexi stuffs the body of the sloth. Bec ties a knot beneath the stuffing, creating a head for the sloth.
Bec says, YEAH! WE'RE GONNA NEED A LOT. AND IF I ROLL THIS TIGHT LEG UP, I'LL GET YOU TO STUFF THAT IN THERE. WHAA, THAT'S GOOD! I TOOK THIS OUT OF AN OLD BURST CUSHION. STUFF IT IN, THERE WE GO. THAT LOOKS ABOUT RIGHT! I'M GOING TO TIE A KNOT SO THE STUFFING DOESN'T FALL OUT, AND TIE THAT NICE AND TIGHT... TO MAKE THE SLOTH'S BODY, I'VE GOT A LARGE BOTTLE FROM THE RECYCLING, AND I'VE TAKEN THE LID OFF. NOW I'LL GET YOU TO PUT THAT INSIDE.
Lexi says, GOING UP.
[Rustling]
Lexi pushes the empty plastic bottle into the sloth’s body.
Bec says, GOING UP! WHOOP! IT'S LIKE A BIG OLD SAUSAGE.
[Lexi giggling]
Bec says, HERE WE GO! EXCELLENT. AND WE'LL TIE A KNOT IN THE END.
Lexi ties a knot at the end of the bottle.
Lexi says, HERE WE GO!
Bec says, DONE! NOW WE'LL JUST TRIM THE END OFF. WATCH YOUR FINGERS.
Bec trims the fabric off the end of the sloth’s body.
Lexi says, AND THERE WE GO.
Bec says, THERE WE ARE! AND IT'S ONE SLOTH'S BODY. TIME TO ADD SOME P.V.A!
Bec and Lexi brush P.V.A. onto the body of the sloth.
WE'RE PUTTING PVA OVER THE BODY, SO THAT THE TIGHTS STICK TO THE BOTTLE. IT CAN GET A BIT MESSY, SO YOU MIGHT WANT TO PUT DOWN SOME NEWSPAPER FIRST. AND THIS IS YOUR FIRST SLEEPOVER, YOU SAID.
Lexi says, YES.
Bec asks, AND WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO?
Lexi replies, I WOULD LIKE TO WATCH A FILM IN BED AND EAT SNACKS.
Bec says, AW, THAT SOUNDS GOOD! ONCE THE BODY'S COVERED IN P.V.A, WE'LL LEAVE IT TO DRY.
[Animated paint splattering]
Bec says, BACK TO THE OTHER TIGHTS. THERE'S SOME HOLES IN THE TOES...
Bec pokes her finger through a hole.
Bec says, "HELLO!" BUT WE CAN REUSE THEM TO MAKE THE ARMS AND LEGS. CUT ONE OF THESE UP FOR YOU...
Bec cuts a leg off a legging and gives it to Lexi. She cuts another leg.
Lexi says, THANK YOU!
Bec says, ONE FOR ME. AND LET'S JUST TIE A KNOT IN THE END.
They both tie a knot at the end of their legging.
Bec says, OKAY...WE'LL GRAB SOME OF THAT STUFFING...AND PUT IT INSIDE. AND WE WANT TO FILL UP MOST OF THE WAY, BUT NOT QUITE, AND I'LL SHOW YOU WHY IN A SECOND.
Bec and Lexi stuff the two legs.
Bec says, LOOKIN' PRETTY GOOD! WE'RE JUST GOING TO TIE A KNOT IN THE END. AND I'LL LEAVE SOME SPACE.
[Upbeat music continues]
Bec and Lexi put knots at the end of the legs.
Bec says, AND WE WANT A BIT LOOSE, 'CAUSE WE'RE GOING TO GO AROUND THE MIDDLE... PUT YOUR FINGER IN THE MIDDLE. AND WE WANT TO SQUISH THEM, SO THERE'S A GAP.
Bec and Lexi squish the stuffing in the middle of the leg.
Bec says, THAT'S IT. THESE ARE READY TO ADD TO THE BODY. WE'RE JUST USING SOME STRONG GLUE. AND JUST PUT A LITTLE BIT THERE. BLUB, BLUB, BLUB, BLUB...
Bec applies the glue, and she and Lexi squish the leg stuffing.
Bec says, LEXI, I THINK YOU CAN POP THE SLOTH'S BODY ON TOP. THAT LOOKS GOOD!
Lexi puts the sloth’s body on the legs.
Bec says, SQUISH IT DOWN! LOVE IT! IT'S STARTING TO LOOK A LITTLE BIT MORE LIKE A SLOTH NOW, ISN'T IT? AND THEN WE DO THIS.
Bec and Lexi each grab the ends of the legs and put them together.
Bec says, OH!
[Lexi giggling]
Bec says, YOU SEE WHERE WE'RE GOING NOW, HEY!
Lexi says, YES.
Bec says, WE'LL LEAVE THIS TO DRY.
[Splatting]
Animated paint splatters.
In the art studio, Bec says, WE'RE GOING TO STORE ALL OF THE THINGS YOU'LL NEED FOR YOUR SLEEPOVER IN HERE. SO, WE NEED TO CUT A LITTLE DOOR IN THERE. I'M JUST DRAWING THREE SIDES OF A RECTANGLE.
Bec draws on the body of the sloth.
Bec says, AND TO CUT IT OUT, IT'S A NEAT TRICK, I JUST PINCH THE BOTTLE AND GIVE IT A LITTLE SNIP THERE. WATCH YOUR FINGERS. YOU MIGHT LIKE TO ASK AN ADULT TO HELP YOU HERE.
[Scissors snipping, whooshing, upbeat music plays]
Bec cuts along the lines and lifts the little door, revealing the inside of the bottle.
Bec says, AND NOW THE SLOTH HAS A LITTLE POCKET IN ITS BELLY. NEXT WE'RE ADDING A LITTLE LATCH. SO I'VE GOT THESE SPLIT PINS AND I'M PUSHING IT THROUGH...YOU MIGHT LIKE TO ASK AN ADULT TO HELP YOU HERE. PUT IT ON THIS SIDE...
[Popping]
Bec pushes a pin through the door.
Bec says, AND WE'LL ADD ANOTHER SPLIT PIN HERE.
[Popping]
She puts a second pin on the body below the pin on the door.
Bec says, AND WE'LL SPLIT IT OPEN ON THE OTHER SIDE. TO SECURE THE LATCH, I'VE GOT A HAIR ELASTIC.
[Twanging]
Bec stretches the hair elastic.
Bec says, AND I'M JUST LOOPING THAT OVER THE SPLIT PINS.
Bec loops the hair elastic around the pins, holding the door shut. She and Lexi put hook and loop tape on the hands and feet.
Bec says, WE'RE GOING TO ADD SOME HOOK AND LOOP TAPE TO THE HANDS AND FEET. THIS IS SO YOU CAN HANG YOUR SLOTH UP SOMEWHERE, MAYBE ON YOUR BUNK BED. AND YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT WILL MATCH UP. JUST DOING THIS TO MAKE SURE. DOES YOURS MATCH?
They put the hands together and the feet together.
Bec says, AW, LOOK AT THAT! AND WE'LL GIVE THE SLOTH SOME CLAWS. WE CUT THESE OUT EARLIER. BUB-BUB-BUB-BUB-BUB...
Bec holds the paper claws by her mouth. Lexi has them over her eyes.
Bec says, AH! WE'RE USING DOUBLE-SIDED TAPE, BUT YOU COULD ALSO USE STRONG GLUE. WHY DON'T YOU LOOK AFTER OUR LITTLE FRIEND, WHILE I MAKE A FACE. TO MAKE A SLOTH FACE, I'VE CUT OUT AN OVAL, AND SOME BROWN BITS, AND I'VE GOT SOME GOOGLY EYES.
Bec adds brown stripes, googly eyes, a nose, and a smile to the sloth’s face and attaches the face to the sloth.
Bec says, SHALL WE STICK IT ON? PUT THE FACE ON...AND THERE IS THE SLEEPOVER SLOTH. LEXI, YOU'VE GOT A FEW THINGS THERE, WHICH I THINK YOU SHOULD TAKE TO YOUR SLEEPOVER. SO, YOU CAN BRING THEM OVER.
Lexi says, TOOTHBRUSH, HAIRBRUSH, HEADBAND, AND SOME PYJAMAS.
Lexi puts her items in the sloth and uses the hair elastic to close the little door.
Lexi says, THERE WE GO!
Bec says, ALL READY FOR YOUR SLEEPOVER!
Lexi says, THANK YOU.
Lexi hugs her sloth.
Bec says, AW!
[[Animated paint splattering, upbeat music plays]
Later, Lexi sits on her bed and packs items in her sloth.
Lexi says, MY SLEEPOVER SLOTH IS AWESOME! THANK YOU.
On a staircase, a blonde-haired woman says, ARE YOU READY? HAILEY'S WAITING.
Lexi says, I AM NOW! THANKS, BEC! BYE!
[Animated scissors snipping, whooshing]
In Makeaway Takeaway, Bec says, ANOTHER HAPPY CUSTOMER!
[Typing, dinging]
Bec puts the slip of paper into a tray.
Bec says, NOW BACK TO MY VIRAL VIDEO...
[Beeping, tango music plays, whooshing]
Bec takes a mop out of a bucket and dances with it. The mop has a box on top and a smiling face drawn on the side.
Bec says, I'M DANCING WITH MY UPCYCLED PARTNER. ANTON!
Bec says, OH! ANTON! WHAA!
[Slide whistle, clattering]
Bec steps in the bucket and stumbles.
Bec says, THINK I MIGHT LEAVE IT TO THE PROS. HERE'S SOME PAPER PUPPETRY.
[Whooshing, zooming]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
[Upbeat music plays]
The feet move up and down on a drawing of an elephant wearing a tutu and ballet shoes. Bec pulls on two slips of paper at the top of the drawing.
Bec says, LET'S SEE HOW IT'S DONE!
The two slips of paper have the feet on the end. They move up and down as Bec moves them.
[Whooshing, zooming]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
[Upbeat music plays]
By the counter, Bec stands with the bucket over her head.
Bec, muffled, says, I T-TRIED TO GO VIRAL WITH THE ICE BUCKET CHALLENGE, BUT THE B-B-BUCKET FROZE TO MY HEAD.
[Creaking]
Bec pulls on the bucket.
Bec says, UGH!
[Popping, sighing]
She pulls the bucket off her head.
Bec says, I THINK I NEED SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT MORE CALMING. LIKE A MEGA MINI MAKE.
[[Animated paint splattering, upbeat music plays]
Bec sits at a small table with a bottle, paper, a balloon, and scissors.
Bec says, I'M GOING TO MAKE A FRUITY STRESS-BALL. I'VE FILLED THIS RECYCLED PLASTIC BOTTLE WITH FLOUR, AND I HAVE A RED BALLOON. I'VE GONE WITH RED BECAUSE I'M GOING TO MAKE A STRAWBERRY. BLOW IT UP, BUT NOT TOO MUCH.
[Inhaling, whooshing, slide whistle]
Bec blows up the balloon.
Bec says, POP IT OVER THE END OF YOUR BOTTLE.
[Creaking]
Bec puts the balloon over the end of the bottle.
Bec says, MAKE SURE IT'S AIRTIGHT. TIP IT OVER...
Bec tips the bottle and pours flour into the balloon.
Bec says, THE REASON THAT I BLEW MY BALLOON UP WAS SO THAT THE AIR IN THE BALLOON COULD GO INTO THE BOTTLE WHILE THE FLOUR GOES INTO THE BALLOON. AGAIN, MAKE SURE YOU'RE PINCHING YOUR BALLOON, SO THE AIR DOESN'T ESCAPE, AND THEN... I'M JUST GOING TO LET THE AIR OUT VERY, VERY SLOWLY. IF YOU DO IT TOO FAST, IT'S JUST GOING TO SHOOT FLOUR EVERYWHERE.
[Squeaking]
Bec lets air out of the balloon and ties a knot at the end. She squeezes it.
Bec says, TIE A KNOT IN THE END... JUST MAKE SURE THAT'S AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE. OOH! I FEEL CALM ALREADY! NOW IT NEEDS A STALK. SO, I'VE GOT SOME GREEN CRAFT FOAM, AND I'M GOING TO FOLD IT IN HALF, SO I CAN USE IT TO COVER UP THE KNOT ON MY BALLOON.
Bec folds the craft foam paper and cuts out a stalk. She folds it over the knot, covering both sides. Bec puts the stalk down on the table.
Bec says, THAT'S MY STALK. AND YOU'LL SEE THAT THAT COVERS UP THE KNOT. I'M GONNA PUT THAT TO THE SIDE FOR NOW, BECAUSE I WANT MY STRAWBERRY TO HAVE SOME SEEDS! I'VE GOT A WHITE PEN.
[Boinging]
Bec puts white dots on the balloon.
Bec says, ONCE YOUR STRAWBERRY IS COVERED UP WITH SEEDS, WE CAN STICK THAT STALK ON. I'M USING DOUBLE-SIDED TAPE, BUT YOU COULD ALSO USE STRONG GLUE. GET THAT OVER THERE...
She beds the stalk over the knot.
Bec says, AND THERE YOU HAVE IT. MY STRAWBERRY FRUITY STRESS BALL. I'LL ADD THIS WITH THE OTHERS.
Bec points to other stress balls in a bowl and puts the strawberry in.
Bec says, MY PLUM, MY BANANA, MY ORANGE, AND MY APPLE. AND NOW MY STRAWBERRY. SQUISH THESE WHENEVER YOU NEED SOME CALM IN YOUR LIFE.
[Animated paint splattering, beeping]
Bec activates her smartphone. She takes a golden ball cap off the mop in the bucket and backs away.
Bec says, I'M TRYING A NEW VIRAL CHALLENGE. I CALL IT THE MAKEAWAY FLYING FLING. I'VE GOTTA GET THIS HAT ONTO THIS MOP HANDLE.
[Drumroll plays, slide whistle, crashing, footsteps running, Bec exhaling, whooshing, crashing, upbeat music plays]
Bec throws the hat over the mop and rushes across the room. She returns with the hat, throws it again, and misses. She retrieves the hat and returns to her spot.
Bec says, ALRIGHT. HAT ON THE MOP HANDLE.
[Slide whistle, whooshing, upbeat music plays, cheering, applause]
The hat lands on the mop handle.
Bec says, I DID IT! I'M FINALLY GOING TO GO VIRAL!
[Phone buzzing]
A video camera with a line through it appears on Bec’s smartphone.
Bec says, OH NO, I FORGOT TO PRESS RECORD! NO!
[Whooshing, ringing]
Bec says, OOH! A CUSTOMER.
[Slide whistle, upbeat music plays]
A boy with short black hair appears on the screen on the wall.
The black-haired boy says, IT'S THE MAKE OF THE DAY! HI, BEC. I'M ELIAS, AND I'M FROM GLASGOW.
Bec says, HI, ELIAS!
[Whirring]
On the conveyor belt, two clear plastic soup pots with lids, a clear container, and colourful round candy move past Bec.
The black-haired boy, Elias, asks, WHAT CAN YOU MAKE OUT OF THESE THREE INGREDIENTS? SOUP POTS, A SALAD POT, AND SOME SWEETS.
Bec says, HM. TELL ME, ELIAS... IF YOU COULD BE ANY FOOD, WHAT WOULD YOU BE?
Elias says, ERM, CARAMEL SHORTCAKE. IT'S MY FAVOURITE, AND I HOPE EVERYONE ELSE LIKES IT TOO.
Bec says, YES, I DO! I'M SENSING A SWEET TOOTH HERE.
[Elias chuckling, fingers snapping]
Bec snaps her fingers.
Bec says, I'VE GOT IT. ONE MAKE OF THE DAY, COMING RIGHT UP!
[Whooshing, zooming]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
Bec stands at a table with the ingredients, glue, a ruler, and paintbrushes.
Bec says, I'M GOING TO MAKE A SWEET DISPENSER, USING ELIAS' INGREDIENTS.
[Slide whistle, fanfare plays, applause, cheering, animated paint splattering, upbeat music plays]
A finished sweet dispenser appears, with the candy at the top and a slot at the bottom to dispense it.
Bec says, MY FIRST INGREDIENTS? THE SOUP POTS. POPPING THE LIDS OFF...
[Tapping]
Bec takes the lids off the two soup pots and traces a bottle lid on each lid.
Bec says, TRACE AROUND A BOTTLE TOP, ON THE SIDE OF YOUR LID. AND I'M GOING TO DRAW A RECTANGLE AT THE BASE OF MY LARGE SOUP POT... AND CUT THEM OUT.
Bec draws a rectangle on the side of the large soup pot, just above the base.
Bec says, I'M PUSHING SOME SCISSORS INTO THE CENTRE OF WHERE I NEED TO CUT.
[Popping]
Bec pushes the scissors through the soup pot and cuts it.
Bec says, YOU MIGHT WANT AN ADULT TO HELP YOU WITH THIS BIT.
[Whooshing, animated scissors snipping]
Bec says, ALL DONE! POP THE LIDS BACK ON.
[Clicking, mellow music plays]
Bec says, I'M ALSO ADDING A DIP POT FROM MY RECYCLING TO THIS MAKE. I'M GONNA PAINT THESE RED.
Bec paints the dip pot and lid red.
Bec says, I'VE MIXED PAINT WITH P.V.A., SO IT STICKS TO THE PLASTIC. AND OF COURSE, YOUR SWEET DISPENSER CAN BE ANY COLOUR YOU LIKE. I PAINT MY LARGE SOUP POT.
Bec paints the large soup pot red.
[Animated paint splattering]
Bec says, I'M USING MY SECOND INGREDIENT, THE RECYCLED SALAD POT, AS THE BASE. I'M PAINTING IT GREY.
Bec paints the overturned salad pot grey.
Bec says, LOOK HOW MY PAINT IS STICKING TO THE PLASTIC. PERFECT. PUT IT ASIDE AND WAIT FOR IT TO DRY!
[Animated paint splattering, mellow music plays]
Bec says, THEY'RE DRY! I'M GOING TO CONSTRUCT MY SWEET DISPENSER. I'VE GOT MY BASE. STICKING THE BIG SOUP POT ON TOP...
Bec puts the large soup pot on the overturned grey base. She tapes the dip pot to the base of the clear small soup pot.
Bec says, I'M USING DOUBLE-SIDED TAPE, BUT YOU COULD ALSO USE STRONG GLUE. I'M STICKING THAT ON TOP THERE. I'VE GOT A STRIP OF GREY CARD THAT I'M STICKING AROUND THE EDGE OF MY BIG SOUP POT.
She wraps grey paper around the lid of the big soup pot and then puts the small soup pot on top of the large one, turning it until the holes in the lids line up.
Bec says, POP ON THE LID. AND AS YOU CAN SEE, WHEN YOU TWIST AND TURN, THE TWO HOLES MEET WHERE THE SWEET WILL DROP DOWN. I NEED SOMETHING TO CATCH THE SWEETS, SO I'M USING A SMALLER PIECE OF GREY CARD, THAT I'M ATTACHING JUST ON EITHER SIDE OF THAT HOLE WE CUT OUT.
Bec puts the strip of grey paper around the small rectangular hole near the base of the large soup pot. She draws lines on the grey paper.
Bec says, AND WITH A BLACK MARKER, I'LL ADD SOME DETAILS.
[Animated paint splattering]
Bec says, THIS NEEDS A BUTTON. REMEMBER THAT BOTTLE TOP THAT I USED EARLIER? STICKING THAT THERE.
Bec attaches a bottle lid to the grey paper around the lid of the large soup pot.
Bec says, NOW FOR THE FINAL INGREDIENT! THE SWEETS.
[Rattling, clicking]
Bec pours the sweets into the small soup pot and puts the lid on.
Bec says, PUT THAT OVER THERE...
[Clicking, sweets rattling]
Bec attaches the base to the small soup pot and then flips the dispenser over so the sweets are at the top.
Bec says, FLIP IT OVER... AND THERE'S YOUR SWEET DISPENSER. LET'S GIVE IT A SPIN!
[Rattling, happy music plays]
Bec turns the pot on the top, and sweets drop into the dispenser.
Bec says, BRILLIANT! I'M GOING TO PACKAGE THIS UP FOR ELIAS.
[Rustling]
Bec puts the dispenser in a blue bag and puts the bag in a slot on the wall.
Bec says, HERE YOU ARE, ELIAS, YOUR VERY OWN SWEET DISPENSER!
[Beeping]
Bec pushes a button.
[Animated paint splattering, upbeat music plays, giggling]
At home, Elias takes the sweet dispenser out of the blue bag.
Elias says, WHOA...I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT! THANKS, BEC!
In Makeaway Takeaway, Bec says, SWEET! ENJOY, ELIAS! ANOTHER HAPPY CUSTOMER.
Bec gives a thumbs-up.
[Whooshing, zooming]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
[Beeping, upbeat music plays]
Bec activates her smartphone. She backs away from the mop handle, holding the gold ball cap.
Bec says, I'VE SET MY PHONE TO VOICE CONTROL, SO I DON'T FORGET TO PRESS RECORD. OKAY. PHONE? RECORD VIDEO.
The smartphone says, UPLOADING ALL VIDEOS.
Bec says, NO, DON'T UPLOAD ALL MY PRACTICE VIDEOS TO THE INTERNET!
The smartphone says, SENDING ALL VIDEOS TO THE INTERNET.
NO! PHONE, I AM YOUR MASTER, BEC HILL. CANCEL! CANCEL!
The smartphone says, CANCELLING BEC HILL.
[Beeping, Bec groaning]
Bec picks up her smartphone.
Bec says, OH NO, IT SENT ALL MY PRACTICE VIDEOS TO THE INTERNET!
[Beeping]
Bec says, UGH!
[Beeping, grunting, chiming, crashing, upbeat music plays]
Flashbacks show Bec dancing, pulling the bucket off her head, walking with a foot in the bucket, coughing, and dancing with the forks. Likes appear beside her video.
Bec says, WOW! PEOPLE REALLY LIKE WATCHING ME MAKE A FOOL OF MYSELF.
[Banana telephone ringing]
Bec says, THE BANANA PHONE!
[Whooshing, beeping]
Bec picks up the phone.
Bec says, HELLO, MAKEAWAY TAKEAWAY, HOW CAN I HELP?
On a split screen, a boy wearing a red hat, eyeglasses, a white shirt, and a red suit holds a cell phone.
The boy, Casey, says, HI, BEC. IT'S CASEY HERE. COULD YOU DELIVER AN ARTY SURPRISE FOR OUR CIRCUS CLUB?
Bec says, AWESOME! I LOVE A CHALLENGE. SEE YOU SOON!
[Beeping]
Bec ends the call.
[Slide whistle, whooshing, zooming]
Title: “Makeaway Takeaway.”
[Circus music plays]
At the circus club, children practice juggling, swinging on a trapeze, ribbon work, hula hooping, and practicing aerial silks.
Bec says, OH, WOW...
[Bec gasping]
Bec says, HI, EVERYONE!
The children say, HI!
Bec says, SO YOU WANT ME TO DELIVER A SURPRISE FOR YOUR CIRCUS CLUB?
Casey says, YEAH. MY AND MY FRIENDS ARE MEMBERS HERE AT CIRCUS MASH.
Bec says, OOH, CIRCUS MASH!
A blue-eyed girl says, THANKS TO JOE, WE'VE LEARNT ALL THESE AMAZING TRICKS!
Bec says, AH, SO JOE'S YOUR COACH?
The children say, YEAH.
Bec says, AH.
A girl with two braids says, AND WE'D LOVE IT IF YOU CAN MAKE SOME AMAZING ART FOR US.
[Whooshing, energetic music plays]
Bec says, YEAH, I CAN DO THAT! LET'S GET JUGGLING AND MAKE SOME ART!
[Energetic music continues, rustling, whooshing, splashing, horn tooting, slide whistles]
Bec spreads long red and white strips of fabric side by side on the floor. She puts large rectangles of purple paper at one end of the rows. She gathers sparkling clothes and puts them on the fabric. She whips a white ribbon in the air and adds it and a coiled black rope to her pile. Casey dumps a bucket of sparkling ribbon on Bec. Bec adds a horn, rods, balls, and plates to her pile. Bec uses the black rope to outline a hand on white fabric. She makes a bowtie out of oversized, spotted clown shoes. She gathers wigs, positions them on her art, and places a red ball as a nose on a face.
Bec says, I THINK THAT SHOULD JUST ABOUT DO IT! CASEY, MINNIE, CAN YOU GET JOE AND YOUR FRIENDS?
Casey and the girl with two braids, Minnie, say, YES!
[Footsteps running, upbeat music plays]
Casey and Minnie hold the hands of a brown-haired man with a bandana tied around his eyes. They lead him to the art, and the other children follow them.
Minnie says JOE, WE JUST WANTED TO SAY A BIG THANK YOU FOR CREATING THIS AMAZING CIRCUS CLUB. TAKE A LOOK!
[Upbeat music plays]
Joe removes the bandana. On the floor, a fabric clown riding a rope unicycle on a tightrope juggles pins.
Joe says, YOU GUYS, THAT'S AMAZING!
(LAUGHING)
Bec says, THANK YOU SO MUCH! THAT'S ANOTHER BRILLIANT DAY OF DELIVERING ART TO YOUR DOOR! SEE YOU NEXT TIME ON...
Everyone says, MAKEAWAY TAKEAWAY!
