Transcript: Save the Tree
At night, the stars and full moon shine above the Moon family’s mansion. Isadora Moon, a young half-vampire, half-fairy girl with long black hair, pointy ears, pink bat wings and vampire fangs, wears a light purple cardigan over a light pink dress with black stars.
[Upbeat music plays]
A singer sings, ISADORA MOON THE ONE AND ONLY, HERE I GO. I'M TOTALLY UNIQUE AND EXTRA-STARRY.
Isadora spins and waves her star wand.
The singer sings, WAVING MY WAND, FLYING FEARLESSLY, YEAH IT'S YOUR GIRL, ISADORA.
Isadora’s fairy mom, Cordelia, and vampire dad, Bartholomew, join Isadora. Cordelia has long, wavy pink hair, pointy ears and green wings. She wears a flower crown and a green cardigan over a pink dress. Bartholomew has short black hair and wears a black and purple cape with a striped, grey suit vest.
The singer sings, A LITTLE BIT OF BOTH. HALF A VAMPIRE, HALF A FAIRY.
Isadora flies over her neighbourhood with Pink Rabbit, a stuffed toy that comes to life.
The singer sings, READY FOR A NEW EXCITING JOURNEY!
Isadora dives into the ocean. Text reads, “Written by Denise Cassar. Theme Song by Helen Park.”
The singer sings, SPARKLY AND EXTRAORDINARY.
Isadora swims underwater as a mermaid and transforms into a black cat. Text reads, “Series Director William Gordon. Showrunner Deborah Thorpe.”
The singer sings, YEAH, THAT'S ME, ISADORA WATCH ME BE.
Isadora flies around the show title and waves her wand. Text reads, “Isadora Moon. Based on the Isadora Moon books and characters by Harriet Muncaster.”
[Light, cheerful music plays]
The episode title reads, “Save the Tree.” In a park, Cordelia waters pink flowers.
[Cordelia humming]
Cordelia wipes sweat off her forehead.
[Cordelia sighing happily]
Zoe and Oliver run after Isadora as she kicks a soccer ball.
Oliver shouts, COME ON!
[Zoe, Oliver and Isadora giggling]
Isadora kicks the soccer ball over to a barricade fence blocking a large tree. A sign beside the fence features a chainsaw icon. Isadora kicks the ball over to Zoe, and Zoe kicks it to Oliver.
Oliver says, YEAH!
Oliver kicks the ball back to Isadora.
Isadora says, OH!
[Isadora giggling]
Zoe says, ISADORA! TO ME!
Isadora kicks the ball to Zoe, and Zoe accidentally kicks it over the fence.
[Everyone gasping]
Zoe says, WHOOPS!
The ball bounces off the chainsaw sign. It hits a rock and rolls behind the sign.
Oliver says, OH, NO!
Isadora says, DON'T WORRY. I'LL GET IT!
Isadora leaps into the air and flies around the tree.
Isadora says, HUH? CAN'T SEE IT.
Cordelia joins Isadora.
Cordelia says, AH, THIS IS NEW. WHAT AN EYESORE! LET ME HELP YOU.
Cordelia waves her fairy star wand. A sparkly pink cloud replaces the chainsaw sign with wildflowers, revealing the soccer ball wedged inside a nook in the tree.
Cordelia says, THERE. THAT'S BETTER!
Isadora says, MUM! YOU CAN'T JUST DO THAT.
[Cordelia laughing]
Oliver cheers, WOO! THE BALL.
Oliver runs over to the tree and grabs the ball. Zoe follows. Isadora lands beside her. Zoe spots a poster above the nook in the tree.
[Zoe gasping]
Zoe says, LOOK, EVERYONE!
Zoe grabs the poster and says, IT SAYS HERE THE TREE'S BEING CUT DOWN TO MAKE ROOM FOR A ZIPWIRE! HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!
Isadora frowns.
Oliver says, NO WAY!
Isadora says, A ZIPWIRE? WHAT'S THAT?
Zoe says, IT'S A THING YOU HOLD ONTO, AND YOU FLY AROUND IN THE AIR. LIKE THIS.
Zoe spreads her arms and runs around.
Zoe cheers, WHEE!
[Zoe giggling]
Isadora says, WHAT? SO, YOU MEAN IT'LL LET YOU FLY, JUST LIKE A FAIRY-VAMPIRE?
Oliver says, YEAH, PRETTY MUCH.
Isadora says, AWESOME! WE CAN ALL FLY TOGETHER!
Cordelia flies over to Isadora and says, THEY WON'T BE PULLING THIS BEAUTIFUL, OLD TREE DOWN IF I HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT.
[Cordelia humming]
Cordelia waves her wand, and the poster disappears from Zoe’s hands.
[Zoe gasping]
Cordelia says, OLD TREES ARE FULL OF MAGIC AND WONDER AND THAT'S WHY THEY SHOULDN'T BE CUT DOWN TO MAKE ROOM FOR ZIPPITY WIRES.
Zoe, Oliver and Isadora frown.
Cordelia says, DON'T YOU THINK SO, ISADORA?
Isadora says, UH, I DON'T KNOW. A ZIPWIRE DOES SOUND FUN.
Zoe says, COME ON, ISADORA. LET'S PLAY FOOTBALL AGAIN!
[Zoe and Oliver giggling]
Zoe and Oliver run past Isadora.
Oliver says, TO ME, ZOE!
Isadora says, ANYWAY, THERE'S NOT MUCH WE CAN DO ABOUT IT IF THEY'RE GOING TO CUT IT DOWN.
Cordelia looks disappointed.
Isadora says, COMING!
Isadora runs after Zoe and Oliver. Cordelia gazes up at the tree.
[Isadora panting]
Cordelia says, HM.
At the Moon family mansion, the sun shines brightly.
[Cordelia humming]
In the greenhouse, Cordelia stands at a table with a leafy potted plant. Pink Rabbit reads a gardening magazine. Isadora flies through the door.
[Cordelia sighing]
Isadora lands beside the table.
Cordelia quietly says, COME ON, LITTLE PLANT. I'M NOT GIVING UP ON YOU.
[Isadora giggling]
Isadora says, I GUESS THAT'S WHY THE TREE'S SO IMPORTANT TO YOU.
Cordelia says, EVERYTHING IN NATURE IS IMPORTANT TO ME.
Isadora says, HM. THE TREE IN THE PARK DOES HAVE PRETTY LEAVES.
Cordelia says, WHATEVER THE TREE LOOKS LIKE, IT'S TOTALLY PERFECT JUST THE WAY IT IS.
[Isadora giggling]
Isadora says, THAT'S WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT ME.
Isadora and Cordelia fly into the air and say, "HALF FAIRY, HALF VAMPIRE, TOTALLY PERFECT."
Cordelia and Isadora share a hug.
[Cordelia and Isadora laughing]
Cordelia flies out of the room.
[Cordelia humming]
Isadora lands beside the table and says, MAYBE SAVING THE TREE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN HAVING A ZIPWIRE. NOW, I JUST HAVE TO PERSUADE MY FRIENDS.
Isadora glances at Pink Rabbit, and Pink Rabbit lowers the magazine. At night, the stars twinkle in the sky.
Isadora says, PINK RABBIT, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO? HOW AM I GOING TO CONVINCE MY FRIENDS TO HELP ME SAVE THE TREE?
In her bedroom, Isadora looks at Pink Rabbit, who sits on the end of her bed.
[Isadora sighing]
Isadora says, WE HAVE TO THINK OF SOMETHING.
[Door opening]
Bartholomew says, ISADORA, I'M OFF FOR MY NIGHT FLIGHT!
Bartholomew steps into the room and looks at Isadora’s worried expression.
Bartholomew says, OH. ARE YOU OKAY?
Isador says, NO. I HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO CONVINCE MY FRIENDS THAT A TREE'S MORE IMPORTANT THAN A ZIPWIRE THAT WHIZZES THEM THROUGH THE AIR.
Bartholomew says, OOH, A ZIPWIRE SOUNDS FUN!
Isadora says, DAD, THAT'S THE PROBLEM!
Bartholomew says, OH, I SEE. SORRY. YOU KNOW, WHEN I HAVE A PROBLEM, A FLY THROUGH THE NIGHT SKY SOMETIMES HELPS ME TO LOOK AT THINGS DIFFERENTLY. DO YOU WANT TO COME TOO?
[Isadora gasping]
Isadora says, YES, PLEASE! DO YOU WANT TO COME, PINK RABBIT?
Isadora glances toward Pink Rabbit, asleep against a black and purple striped star pillow on the bed.
[Pink Rabbit softly snoring]
Bartholomew says, JUST YOU AND ME THEN!
[Isadora and Bartholomew laughing]
Outside, Isadora flies through the night sky with Bartholomew.
Isadora cheers, WOO-HOO!
Bartholomew cheers, YES!
[Isadora cheering]
[Bartholomew chuckling]
[Isadora gasping]
Isadora says, DAD, LOOK DOWN THERE! THERE'S THE TREE I WAS TELLING YOU ABOUT. CAN WE GO DOWN AND GET A CLOSER LOOK?
Bartholomew says, OF COURSE WE CAN! PREPARE FOR A BARREL ROLL SWOOP!
Isadora takes Bartholomew’s hands, and they barrel roll through the air.
Isadora and Bartholomew cheer, WOO-HOO!
[Bartholomew laughing]
Isadora and Bartholomew fly over to the large tree in the park and hover beside it.
Bartholomew says, YOU KNOW, SEEING THE TREE FROM UP HERE, I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY YOU WANT TO SAVE IT.
[Isadora gasping]
Isadora says, MAYBE IF MY FRIENDS COULD SEE IT FROM UP HERE TOO, THEY'D UNDERSTAND HOW SPECIAL IT WAS.
Bartholomew says, GOOD IDEA! UM, HAVE ANY OF THEM LEARNED TO FLY YET?
[Isadora giggling]
Isadora says, NO.
[Isadora gasping]
Isadora says, BUT MAYBE MUM COULD HELP WITH THAT!
Isadora and Bartholomew fly away from the tree.
[Gentle, bright music plays]
On a new day, the sun shines brightly.
Cordelia says, ISADORA HAS INVITED YOU ON A SPECTACULAR FLYING TOUR OF THE PARK. AND YOUR PARENTS HAVE AGREED.
In the Moon’s backyard, Cordelia stands beside Bartholomew with Isadora, Pink Rabbit, Zoe and Oliver. Bartholomew wears dark sunglasses.
[Cordelia giggling]
Cordelia says, SO, WHO'S IN?
[Oliver gasping]
Zoe loudly squeals, ME!
[Zoe shrilling loudly]
Pink Rabbit flinches.
Bartholomew yelps, OH!
Bartholomew plugs his ears.
[Bartholomew laughing nervously]
Bartholomew says, YES, I THINK MY UNCLE IN TRANSYLVANIA HEARD THAT.
Cordelia says, GREAT! AND YOU'LL BE TRAVELING BY CLOUD.
[Cordelia gasping]
Cordelia says, AND THERE'S THE PERFECT ONE!
Cordelia waves her wand toward a cloud in the sky. Sparkly pink light wraps around the cloud, and it floats down to the backyard. Cordelia points her wand toward the cloud, and it takes the shape of a car.
Oliver says, WOW!
Zoe says, WHOA!
Oliver says, SO COOL! THE CLOUDS AT OUR HOUSE JUST RAIN ON US.
[Isadora and Zoe giggling]
Cordelia says, HOP ON AND BUCKLE UP FOR SOME FUN!
[Oliver giggling]
Zoe cheers, WA-HOO!
Oliver climbs into the cloud car.
Zoe says, I'M AT THE FRONT, OKAY? I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!
[Zoe squealing happily]
Isadora sits in the car between Oliver and Zoe. Pink Rabbit covers his ears. Cordelia waves her wand, and the cloud car sparkles.
Oliver says, WHOA!
[Zoe gasping]
Zoe squeals, WHEE!
[Zoe shrilling]
The cloud car floats off the ground. Isadora, Oliver and Zoe wear cloud seat belts.
Isadora asks, DO YOU WANT TO COME, PINK RABBIT?
Pink Rabbit shakes his head.
Bartholomew says, UP, UP, AND AWAY!
Bartholomew leaps into the air and pushes the cloud car into the sky. Cordelia and Pink Rabbit wave.
Zoe cheers, WHEE!
Isadora cheers, WOO!
[Isadora, Oliver and Zoe giggling]
[Oliver gasping]
Oliver says, THERE'S THE PARK!
[Zoe gasping]
Zoe says, AND THERE'S THE BIG TREE THEY'RE GOING TO CUT DOWN!
Isadora, Oliver and Zoe look down at the tree in the park.
Oliver says, WOW! IT LOOKS SO PRETTY FROM UP HERE!
Isadora says, THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT. YOU SEE? THEY CAN'T CUT IT DOWN. WE HAVE TO SAVE IT!
Zoe asks, WHAT ABOUT THE ZIPWIRE, THOUGH?
Oliver says, WAIT. I SAW SOMETHING DOWN THERE. CAN WE GO BACK SO I CAN GET A BETTER LOOK?
Bartholomew says, OKAY, PREPARE FOR A BARREL ROLL SWOOP!
Oliver frowns and says, WHAT?!
[Bartholomew laughing]
Bartholomew says, I'M, I'M JUST KIDDING.
[Bartholomew laughing]
Bartholomew pushes the cloud car down to the big tree in the park.
[Oliver gasping]
Oliver says, LOOK DOWN THERE!
Oliver points toward the nook in the tree. A family of four bunnies hop out.
[Zoe gasping]
Zoe says, BUNNIES! AW, SO CUTE!
Isadora says, I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE BUNNIES.
Oliver says, YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. IT'S NOT JUST A TREE. IT'S A HOME. ISADORA, YOU'RE RIGHT. WE HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO SAVE IT.
Isadora says, YES! ZOE, WHAT DO YOU THINK? ZIPWIRE, OR BUNNIES IN A TREE?
Zoe says, ARE YOU KIDDING? BUNNIES IN A TREE BEATS ZIPWIRES ANY DAY OF THE WEEK! YAY!
Isadora cheers, I'M SO HAPPY!
Bartholomew says, UH, HELLO? MY ARMS ARE GETTING A LITTLE TIRED HERE.
Bartholomew shakes his right arm.
[Isadora giggling]
Isadora says, SORRY, DAD. WE CAN GO HOME NOW. I KNOW HOW TO SAVE THE TREE. WILL YOU ALL HELP ME?
Oliver says, OF COURSE WE WILL! LET'S GO.
Bartholomew pushes the cloud car toward the sky.
Zoe asks, CAN WE DO THE BARREL ROLL NOW?
Oliver says, NO WAY!
Zoe says, PLEASE!
Later, in the park, Cordelia stands in front of the large tree with Zoe, Isadora, Oliver and Pink Rabbit. Cordelia and Isadora pass signs with pictures of trees to Zoe and Oliver.
Cordelia says, GREAT JOB, EVERYONE! THESE LOOK WONDERFUL.
Isadora says, HERE, PINK RABBIT. WE EVEN MADE ONE FOR YOU!
Isadora gives Pink Rabbit a small sign with a picture of a bunny.
Oliver says, YOU KNOW, PINK RABBIT IS THE PERFECT MASCOT.
Zoe says, YEAH, A BUNNY TO SAVE THE BUNNY TREE!
Pink Rabbit glares at Zoe.
[Isadora gasping]
Isadora crouches beside Pink Rabbit and quietly says, NEVER CALL HIM "A BUNNY."
Zoe says, OOPS.
Cordelia asks, READY, EVERYONE? WE'VE GOT A TREE TO SAVE!
Cordelia, Pink Rabbit, Isadora, Zoe and Oliver hold up their signs.
Everyone chants, SAVE OUR TREE! SAVE OUR TREE!
Later, by the tree, a white-haired reporter with her hair in an updo wears a blue suit. She sets up a camera pointed toward the tree. The reporter steps in front of the camera with a microphone.
Isadora and the others chant, WHAT DO WE WANT? TO SAVE OUR TREE! WHEN DO WE WANT IT? REALLY SOON.
The reporter says, ABSOLUTE SCENES DOWN HERE IN THE PARK.
Zoe spots the reporter. Her jaw falls open, and she drops her sign.
[Zoe squealing]
[Zoe giggling]
Oliver frowns and furrows his brow.
Zoe says, IT'S WHIPPY MCFLUFF! I NEED HER AUTOGRAPH.
Zoe runs toward the reporter, Whippy.
Oliver drops his sign and says, UH...
Oliver runs after Zoe.
Isadora and Cordelia continue to chant, WHAT DO WE WANT? TO SAVE OUR TREE.
Oliver pushes Zoe back to their spot in front of the tree. Zoe looks annoyed.
Oliver says, TREE. REMEMBER?
[Chanting continues]
Whippy says, THIS DEDICATED GROUP OF YOUNG PEOPLE ARE CAMPAIGNING TO SAVE A TREE. I THINK WE CAN SPEAK TO ONE OF THEM NOW.
[Zoe gasping and squealing]
Oliver cringes.
Zoe raises her hand and says, ME!
Whippy says, ISADORA MOON!
Isadora gives Cordelia her sign and flies over to Whippy.
Whippy says, SO, ISADORA MOON, AS YET, THERE IS NO SIGN OF THE BUNNIES.
Isadora says, I PROMISE. THERE'S A WHOLE FAMILY OF BUNNIES LIVING UNDER THE TREE. THAT'S JUST ONE REASON WE WANT TO SAVE IT.
Whippy says, FASCINATING. WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO TAKE UP THE CAUSE?
Isadora says, MY MUM. SHE'S A SUMMER FAIRY AND SHE TAUGHT ME ALL ABOUT THE MAGIC OF NATURE.
[Chanting continues]
Whippy says, HOW LOVELY.
[Whippy gasping]
Whippy says, ONE MOMENT.
[Beeping]
Whippy says, I'M GETTING INFORMATION AS IT COMES IN.
[Whippy gasping]
Whippy says, APPARENTLY, THE PARK OFFICIALS HAVE JUST FINISHED MEETING AND THE FATE OF THE TREE HAS NOW BEEN DECIDED.
[Suspenseful music plays]
Oliver and Zoe walk over to Cordelia.
[Oliver gasping]
Zoe asks, YES?
[Dramatic music plays]
Whippy says, THEY HAVE DECIDED THAT, AS THERE IS NO SIGN OF ANY BUNNY ACTION IN THE TREE, IT WILL STILL BE CUT DOWN. TODAY! TRAGIC!
Isadora says, WHAT? NO!
Isadora flies over to Cordelia.
Isadora says, MUM, CAN'T YOU DO SOME MAGIC TO MAKE PEOPLE SEE HOW SPECIAL THE TREE IS?
Cordelia says, NO, ISADORA. PEOPLE HAVE TO SEE THE MAGIC AND BEAUTY OF NATURE FOR THEMSELVES.
Isadora says, IT'S NOT FAIR.
Cordelia says, I KNOW. I'M PROUD OF YOU FOR TRYING YOUR BEST. THAT'S ALL YOU CAN DO.
Isadora asks, CAN I AT LEAST SAY GOODBYE TO THE TREE?
Cordelia says, OF COURSE.
Isadora flies over to the tree and lays her hand on the bark.
Isadora says, GOODBYE, PRECIOUS TREE.
[Metal clanging]
Everyone frowns. Whippy drags her camera tripod closer to the tree.
Whippy says, UH, DON'T MIND ME. JUST SETTING UP TO FILM THE BIG EVENT. UH, I MEAN, THE SAD EVENT, OBVIOUSLY.
Isadora says, IF ONLY THE REST OF THE WORLD COULD SEE HOW PRECIOUS YOU ARE, TREE.
Isadora hugs the tree. Whippy reaches for her microphone on the grass. Her camera tilts downward.
[Creaking]
Cordelia waves her wand and tilts the camera toward Isadora.
Isadora says, YOU'RE HOME TO THE BUNNIES, BUT YOU'RE ALSO SPECIAL FOR LOTS OF OTHER REASONS.
A leaf falls from the tree. Isadora catches it.
Isadora says, OH, DON'T CRY!
Whippy watches Isadora with tears in her eyes. A red light flashes on the camera filming Isadora.
Sniffing, Whippy says, OH, NO. IT'S JUST SOMETHING IN MY EYE.
Whippy wipes away a tear.
Isadora says, YOUR BEAUTIFUL LEAVES GIVE US SHADE IN THE SUMMERTIME. TO ME, YOU'RE PERFECT JUST THE WAY YOU ARE. I LOVE YOU, TREE. GOODBYE.
Isadora flies up the tree and frowns.
[Whippy sniffling]
Whippy says, OH, OH, THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL. IF ONLY I'D FILMED IT.
Cordelia says, YOU DID.
Whippy looks through the viewfinder on the camera.
[Whippy gasping]
Whippy and Cordelia share a smile. Later, in front of the tree, Whippy stands in front of the camera with her microphone.
Whippy says, THIS IS WHIPPY MCFLUFF COMING TO YOU LIVE FROM THE PARK WHERE WE JUST HEARD THAT AFTER SEEING MY EXTREMELY WELL-FILMED FOOTAGE OF A YOUNG FAIRY-VAMPIRE AND HER FRIENDS CAMPAIGNING TO SAVE THE TREE, IT IS NOT GOING TO BE CUT DOWN AFTER ALL!
Zoe cheers, WHOO-HOO!
Isadora cheers, YEAH!
Oliver cheers, WE DID IT!
Cordelia cheers, YAY!
Zoe runs toward Whippy and shouts, WHIPPY!
Zoe wraps her arms around Whippy.
Whippy grunts, OOH!
Zoe says, YOU WERE AMAZING.
Whippy says, I KNOW. AUTOGRAPH?
[Zoe squealing shrilly]
Whippy cringes. Pink Rabbit covers his ears.
Zoe cheers, YAY!
Pink Rabbit frowns and walks away. Near the tree, Cordelia hovers between Oliver and Isadora with tears in her eyes.
Cordelia says, THIS IS SUCH WONDROUS NEWS.
[Cordelia crying and laughing]
Cordelia wipes away her tears.
Isadora says, MUM, EMBARRASSING!
Oliver glances toward the tree and says, ISADORA, LOOK!
In the nook in the tree, Pink Rabbit steps out. The family of bunnies follow.
[Gasping]
Zoe says, BUNNIES!
Isadora meets the bunnies at the fence, now surrounded by wildflowers.
Isadora crouches and says, HELLO, BUNNIES. YOUR HOME IS SAFE. WE SAVED YOUR TREE!
Whippy whispers, MORE ABSOLUTE SCENES DOWN HERE AT THE TREE. HOME TO BUNNIES AND FRIEND OF CHILDREN, FAIRIES, AND FAIRY-VAMPIRES. AND, WE HAVE ONE OF THE ACTUAL CUTE BUNNIES RIGHT HERE.
Whippy holds the microphone out toward Pink Rabbit.
Whippy asks, WHAT'S YOUR NAME, CUTE BUNNY?
Pink Rabbit frowns.
Isadora says, UH, HE REALLY DOESN'T LIKE BEING CALLED A "BUNNY."
Pink Rabbit looks toward Whippy and raises an eyebrow.

Isadora frowns.
Oliver says, NO WAY!

Isadora says, THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT. YOU SEE? THEY CAN'T CUT IT DOWN. WE HAVE TO SAVE IT!
Zoe asks, WHAT ABOUT THE ZIPWIRE, THOUGH?
Oliver says, WAIT. I SAW SOMETHING DOWN THERE. CAN WE GO BACK SO I CAN GET A BETTER LOOK?
Bartholomew says, OKAY, PREPARE FOR A BARREL ROLL SWOOP!
Oliver frowns and says, WHAT?!
[Bartholomew laughing]
Bartholomew says, I'M, I'M JUST KIDDING.
[Bartholomew laughing]
Bartholomew pushes the cloud car down to the big tree in the park.
[Oliver gasping]
Oliver says, LOOK DOWN THERE!
Oliver points toward the nook in the tree. A family of four bunnies hop out.
[Zoe gasping]
Zoe says, BUNNIES! AW, SO CUTE!
Isadora says, I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE BUNNIES.
Oliver says, YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. IT'S NOT JUST A TREE. IT'S A HOME. ISADORA, YOU'RE RIGHT. WE HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO SAVE IT.
Isadora says, YES! ZOE, WHAT DO YOU THINK? ZIPWIRE, OR BUNNIES IN A TREE?
Zoe says, ARE YOU KIDDING? BUNNIES IN A TREE BEATS ZIPWIRES ANY DAY OF THE WEEK! YAY!
Isadora cheers, I'M SO HAPPY!
Bartholomew says, UH, HELLO? MY ARMS ARE GETTING A LITTLE TIRED HERE.
Bartholomew shakes his right arm.
[Isadora giggling]
Isadora says, SORRY, DAD. WE CAN GO HOME NOW. I KNOW HOW TO SAVE THE TREE. WILL YOU ALL HELP ME?
Oliver says, OF COURSE WE WILL! LET'S GO.
Bartholomew pushes the cloud car toward the sky.
Zoe asks, CAN WE DO THE BARREL ROLL NOW?
Oliver says, NO WAY!
Zoe says, PLEASE!
Later, in the park, Cordelia stands in front of the large tree with Zoe, Isadora, Oliver and Pink Rabbit. Cordelia and Isadora pass signs with pictures of trees to Zoe and Oliver.
Cordelia says, GREAT JOB, EVERYONE! THESE LOOK WONDERFUL.
Isadora says, HERE, PINK RABBIT. WE EVEN MADE ONE FOR YOU!
Isadora gives Pink Rabbit a small sign with a picture of a bunny.
Oliver says, YOU KNOW, PINK RABBIT IS THE PERFECT MASCOT.
Zoe says, YEAH, A BUNNY TO SAVE THE BUNNY TREE!
Pink Rabbit glares at Zoe.
[Isadora gasping]
Isadora crouches beside Pink Rabbit and quietly says, NEVER CALL HIM "A BUNNY."
Zoe says, OOPS.
Cordelia asks, READY, EVERYONE? WE'VE GOT A TREE TO SAVE!
Cordelia, Pink Rabbit, Isadora, Zoe and Oliver hold up their signs.
Everyone chants, SAVE OUR TREE! SAVE OUR TREE!
Later, by the tree, a white-haired reporter with her hair in an updo wears a blue suit. She sets up a camera pointed toward the tree. The reporter steps in front of the camera with a microphone.
Isadora and the others chant, WHAT DO WE WANT? TO SAVE OUR TREE! WHEN DO WE WANT IT? REALLY SOON.
The reporter says, ABSOLUTE SCENES DOWN HERE IN THE PARK.
Zoe spots the reporter. Her jaw falls open, and she drops her sign.
[Zoe squealing]
[Zoe giggling]
Oliver frowns and furrows his brow.
Zoe says, IT'S WHIPPY MCFLUFF! I NEED HER AUTOGRAPH.
Zoe runs toward the reporter, Whippy.
Oliver drops his sign and says, UH...
Oliver runs after Zoe.
Isadora and Cordelia continue to chant, WHAT DO WE WANT? TO SAVE OUR TREE.
Oliver pushes Zoe back to their spot in front of the tree. Zoe looks annoyed.
Oliver says, TREE. REMEMBER?
[Chanting continues]
Whippy says, THIS DEDICATED GROUP OF YOUNG PEOPLE ARE CAMPAIGNING TO SAVE A TREE. I THINK WE CAN SPEAK TO ONE OF THEM NOW.
[Zoe gasping and squealing]
Oliver cringes.
Zoe raises her hand and says, ME!
Whippy says, ISADORA MOON!
Isadora gives Cordelia her sign and flies over to Whippy.
Whippy says, SO, ISADORA MOON, AS YET, THERE IS NO SIGN OF THE BUNNIES.
Isadora says, I PROMISE. THERE'S A WHOLE FAMILY OF BUNNIES LIVING UNDER THE TREE. THAT'S JUST ONE REASON WE WANT TO SAVE IT.
Whippy says, FASCINATING. WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO TAKE UP THE CAUSE?
Isadora says, MY MUM. SHE'S A SUMMER FAIRY AND SHE TAUGHT ME ALL ABOUT THE MAGIC OF NATURE.
[Chanting continues]
Whippy says, HOW LOVELY.
[Whippy gasping]
Whippy says, ONE MOMENT.
[Beeping]
Whippy says, I'M GETTING INFORMATION AS IT COMES IN.
[Whippy gasping]
Whippy says, APPARENTLY, THE PARK OFFICIALS HAVE JUST FINISHED MEETING AND THE FATE OF THE TREE HAS NOW BEEN DECIDED.
[Suspenseful music plays]
Oliver and Zoe walk over to Cordelia.
[Oliver gasping]
Zoe asks, YES?
[Dramatic music plays]
Whippy says, THEY HAVE DECIDED THAT, AS THERE IS NO SIGN OF ANY BUNNY ACTION IN THE TREE, IT WILL STILL BE CUT DOWN. TODAY! TRAGIC!
Isadora says, WHAT? NO!
Isadora flies over to Cordelia.
Isadora says, MUM, CAN'T YOU DO SOME MAGIC TO MAKE PEOPLE SEE HOW SPECIAL THE TREE IS?
Cordelia says, NO, ISADORA. PEOPLE HAVE TO SEE THE MAGIC AND BEAUTY OF NATURE FOR THEMSELVES.
Isadora says, IT'S NOT FAIR.
Cordelia says, I KNOW. I'M PROUD OF YOU FOR TRYING YOUR BEST. THAT'S ALL YOU CAN DO.
Isadora asks, CAN I AT LEAST SAY GOODBYE TO THE TREE?
Cordelia says, OF COURSE.
Isadora flies over to the tree and lays her hand on the bark.
Isadora says, GOODBYE, PRECIOUS TREE.
[Metal clanging]
Everyone frowns. Whippy drags her camera tripod closer to the tree.
Whippy says, UH, DON'T MIND ME. JUST SETTING UP TO FILM THE BIG EVENT. UH, I MEAN, THE SAD EVENT, OBVIOUSLY.
Isadora says, IF ONLY THE REST OF THE WORLD COULD SEE HOW PRECIOUS YOU ARE, TREE.
Isadora hugs the tree. Whippy reaches for her microphone on the grass. Her camera tilts downward.
[Creaking]
Cordelia waves her wand and tilts the camera toward Isadora.
Isadora says, YOU'RE HOME TO THE BUNNIES, BUT YOU'RE ALSO SPECIAL FOR LOTS OF OTHER REASONS.
A leaf falls from the tree. Isadora catches it.
Isadora says, OH, DON'T CRY!
Whippy watches Isadora with tears in her eyes. A red light flashes on the camera filming Isadora.
Sniffing, Whippy says, OH, NO. IT'S JUST SOMETHING IN MY EYE.
Whippy wipes away a tear.
Isadora says, YOUR BEAUTIFUL LEAVES GIVE US SHADE IN THE SUMMERTIME. TO ME, YOU'RE PERFECT JUST THE WAY YOU ARE. I LOVE YOU, TREE. GOODBYE.
Isadora flies up the tree and frowns.
[Whippy sniffling]
Whippy says, OH, OH, THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL. IF ONLY I'D FILMED IT.
Cordelia says, YOU DID.
Whippy looks through the viewfinder on the camera.
[Whippy gasping]
Whippy and Cordelia share a smile. Later, in front of the tree, Whippy stands in front of the camera with her microphone.
Whippy says, THIS IS WHIPPY MCFLUFF COMING TO YOU LIVE FROM THE PARK WHERE WE JUST HEARD THAT AFTER SEEING MY EXTREMELY WELL-FILMED FOOTAGE OF A YOUNG FAIRY-VAMPIRE AND HER FRIENDS CAMPAIGNING TO SAVE THE TREE, IT IS NOT GOING TO BE CUT DOWN AFTER ALL!
Zoe cheers, WHOO-HOO!
Isadora cheers, YEAH!
Oliver cheers, WE DID IT!
Cordelia cheers, YAY!
Zoe runs toward Whippy and shouts, WHIPPY!
Zoe wraps her arms around Whippy.
Whippy grunts, OOH!
Zoe says, YOU WERE AMAZING.
Whippy says, I KNOW. AUTOGRAPH?
[Zoe squealing shrilly]
Whippy cringes. Pink Rabbit covers his ears.
Zoe cheers, YAY!
Pink Rabbit frowns and walks away. Near the tree, Cordelia hovers between Oliver and Isadora with tears in her eyes.
Cordelia says, THIS IS SUCH WONDROUS NEWS.
[Cordelia crying and laughing]
Cordelia wipes away her tears.
Isadora says, MUM, EMBARRASSING!
Oliver glances toward the tree and says, ISADORA, LOOK!
In the nook in the tree, Pink Rabbit steps out. The family of bunnies follow.
[Gasping]
Zoe says, BUNNIES!
Isadora meets the bunnies at the fence, now surrounded by wildflowers.
Isadora crouches and says, HELLO, BUNNIES. YOUR HOME IS SAFE. WE SAVED YOUR TREE!
Whippy whispers, MORE ABSOLUTE SCENES DOWN HERE AT THE TREE. HOME TO BUNNIES AND FRIEND OF CHILDREN, FAIRIES, AND FAIRY-VAMPIRES. AND, WE HAVE ONE OF THE ACTUAL CUTE BUNNIES RIGHT HERE.
Whippy holds the microphone out toward Pink Rabbit.
Whippy asks, WHAT'S YOUR NAME, CUTE BUNNY?
Pink Rabbit frowns.
Isadora says, UH, HE REALLY DOESN'T LIKE BEING CALLED A "BUNNY."
Pink Rabbit looks toward Whippy and raises an eyebrow.
