Over the Fence
[This episode begins with a shot on a bright blue sky. A small UFO sores through it. Cut to Gumdrops grabbing it in his mouth, revealing that it's just a small throwing disc. Gumdrops trots to Sally, who is laying down on the ground, bored.]
Sally: No! I'm not throwing it again!
[Gumdrops drops the UFO disc on Sally's head.]
Sally: Come on, I've already thrown it 765 times and yes, I have been counting!
[Gumdrops gives Sally an over-the-top expression of annoyance. He comes back with a heart-shaped hairbrush in his mouth and drops it on Sally's head. It makes the impact of an anvil as it hits her.]
Sally: Ow! I already gave you five makeovers today. How many do you need?
[Gumdrops gives an expression of annoyance and huffs.]
Sally: I'm just gonna lay here until I'm not bored anymore.
[Gumdrops runs inside the house and rushes out with a jump rope, which he drops on Sally's face.]
Sally: No.
[Gumdrops runs back inside the house and back outside, this time with a crown.]
Sally: No.
[Gumdrops runs inside the house and back outside, holding a squirt gun.]
Sally: No!
[Gumdrops keeps running inside the house and back outside, carrying a bunch of random objects. It starts with a doll, then moves onto a bicycle, and finally a television set.]
[Cut to Sally in a giant pile of random toys and objects. She pops out of it, and spits out a bunch of lego bricks as if they were water.]
Sally: Gumdrops, we already did all this stuff! This morning!
[A cuckoo clock on top of the pile goes off and spits out Charmichael, Sally's stuffed chameleon doll.]
Sally: Charmichael!? What are you doing out here!? It's not safe for a little chameleon like you!
[Gumdrops immediately strikes an annoyed expression. He rolls his eyes as Sally starts cooing over Charmichael.]
Sally: [Cooing] Ooh, let's get you cleaned up, you cute little chameleon thing, you.
[Sally hugs it, and the camera zooms in on Charmichael's deadpanned dopey expression. Sally carries it inside. Gumdrops tries to give the same dopey-eyed expression and follows Sally inside.]
Sally: No! I'm not throwing it again!
[Gumdrops drops the UFO disc on Sally's head.]
Sally: Come on, I've already thrown it 765 times and yes, I have been counting!

[Sally hugs it, and the camera zooms in on Charmichael's deadpanned dopey expression. Sally carries it inside. Gumdrops tries to give the same dopey-eyed expression and follows Sally inside.]
[Cut to the Dunn's kitchen. Sally dips Charmichael in the sink, full with water.]
Sally: There there, you're all clean now. What's that Charmichael? You're hungry?
[Sally reaches into the fridge and pulls out a bowl of chocolate pudding]
Sally: Look at what I got for you! Nummy nummy, chocolate pudding!
[Gumdrops stands there annoyed as Sally puts Charmichael in a high chair and tries to feed them.]
Gumdrops: (Horse noises)
[Sally's attention is drawn to Gumdrops, who gives the biggest puppy-dog eyes possible.]
Sally: You think that's gonna work on the girl who invented the puppy-dog eyes trick?
[As Sally speaks, her ponytail dips in the chocolate pudding, but she doesn't seem to notice, even as loose bits of her hair get stuck in the pudding.]
Sally: We do this every single time that I want to play with Charmichael. I've played with you all morning, mister, and you know we're gonna play together again tonight.
[Gumdrops doesn't seem very amused, but he huffs out of the room anyway, making annoyed horse noises as he does. Sally shrugs and turns back to Charmichael.]
Sally: Num num, eat the pudding.
[The camera cuts to Charmichael keeping the same dopey-eyed expression as the pudding sludge runs down over him.]
Sally: In fact... I think I'm just gonna have a bit of it myself.
[Sally takes a bite of the pudding and then gets a very shocked, surprised expression]
Sally: There there, you're all clean now. What's that Charmichael? You're hungry?
[Sally reaches into the fridge and pulls out a bowl of chocolate pudding]
Sally: Look at what I got for you! Nummy nummy, chocolate pudding!

[Sally takes a bite of the pudding and then gets a very shocked, surprised expression]
[Cut to the Dunn's backyard. Gumdrops tries tossing the UFO disc to himself. He tosses it, and then in the next shot, he is able to catch it with cartoon teleportation. He wags his tail happily and then he throws it again. However, this time it lands on a tree branch in the neighboring yard. Gumdrops immediately has an "uh-oh" expression.]
[Gumdrops looks around the fence, shaped like children's toy blocks, to see Ryker checking his mail. He eyes Gumdrops and instantly becomes annoyed]
Ryker: When I said I didn't want any of you Dunns annoying me, I meant ALL of you Dunns.
[Gumdrops retreats in fear.]

Ryker: When I said I didn't want any of you Dunns annoying me, I meant ALL of you Dunns.
[Gumdrops retreats in fear.]
[Cut to Gumdrops dashing into the kitchen. He crashes into Sally, and she falls over. Then Gumdrops sits there, cowering in intense fear.]
Sally: I said that I'd play with you later!
[Gumdrops gives Sally a pleading expression, and then he points to the UFO disc lodged in the tree branch.]
Sally: Oh, you just got your UFO in a tree... in Ryker's yard.
[Both Sally and Gumdrops peek around the fence. Ryker is still standing in front of his mailbox. He hasn't moved an inch. He's just staring in the same place to shoot Sally an annoyed expression. Both Sally and Gumdrops retreat back behind the fence.]
Sally: D-d-do you think he saw us?
[Gumdrops shakes his head.]
Sally: Well I'm sorry, but it's in Ryker's yard and he doesn't want me over there.
[Gumdrops starts crying in an over-the-top fashion]
Sally: Alright, alright, I'll get the UFO back, you big baby.
[Gumdrops rushes in and licks Sally on the cheek. Sally rolls her eyes.]
Sally: I said that I'd play with you later!

[Gumdrops starts crying in an over-the-top fashion]
Sally: Alright, alright, I'll get the UFO back, you big baby.
[Gumdrops rushes in and licks Sally on the cheek. Sally rolls her eyes.]
[Cut to Sally throwing a doll at the UFO on the branch. It misses and ends up in Rykr's yard.]
Sally: Darn.
[Gumdrops hands Sally a ball. She throws it. It also misses and ends up in Ryker's yard. Cut to Ryker tending his vegetable garden. He looks down at the raining toys with a very deadpan expression. Various other toys fall down. Ryker opens up an umbrella as the falling toys get to the level of downfall.]
[Cut back to Sally.]
Sally: I'm running out of things to throw! Go get me something else.
[Cut to Gumdrops looking around. He doesn't see anything in the yard, so he wanders into the kitchen where he sees Charmichael in his high chair. Gumdrops gets a bit of an idea and has a very naughty smile. Gumdrops grabs Charmichael]
[Cut to Sally just staring at the tree]
Sally: Come'on Gumdrops, I need something to throw!
[Sally feels something in her arms, and without looking at it, tosses it. When it ends up being Charmichael, Sally is immensely surprised by this.]
Sally: CHARMICHAEL!
[Charmichael hits the UFO toy, which falls into the Dunn's yard. However, Charmichael ends up falling into Ryker's yard. Gumdrops happily scoops the UFO up, while Sally immediately bolts around the fence.]
Sally: Charmichael! I'm coming for you!
[Gumdrops gives an annoyed expression and a huff.]
Sally: Darn.
[Gumdrops hands Sally a ball. She throws it. It also misses and ends up in Ryker's yard. Cut to Ryker tending his vegetable garden. He looks down at the raining toys with a very deadpan expression.

Sally: Charmichael! I'm coming for you!
[Gumdrops gives an annoyed expression and a huff.]
[Cut to Sally running around the fence, and skidding to a stop. Ryker stands there, holding Charmichael.]
Ryker: I said stay off my yard, Dunn.
Sally: I'm gonna go, I just need Charmichael back.
[Ryker looks to it]
Ryker: This thing?
Sally: Y-yes! He needs his mommy!
Ryker: I think that I'm keeping this one.
Sally: WHAT!?
Ryker: I'm sick and tired of your toys ending up in my yard... or on my roof.
[Cut to show that many of Sally's toys had landed on Ryker's roof.]
Ryker: If I give you this thing back, it's just going to end up in my yard again.
Sally: No! I would never throw him back over here! I promise! It was just an accident!
Ryker: You're getting a little old for accidents, Dunn. Now get off my yard or I'm calling the scouts. By the way, anything else that ends up over here is mine too.
[Cut to Gumdrops, holding his UFO on the Dunn's front lawn. Sally rushes past, and Gumdrops looks excitedly ready to play.]
Sally: [Tearful] Not now, boy, I gotta go get Charmichael back.
[Sally rushes off into the house. Gumdrops takes another look around the fence. Charmichael sits in Ryker's hand as he goes to pick up the remaining toys off of his yard. Charmichael has the same dopey-eyed stare, but it slowly seems to be inducing guilt into gumdrops.]
[Ryker turns towards Gumdrops]
Ryker: Hey, what did I say!?
[Gumdrops bolts off around the fence and begins panting. He looks down to see his UFO toy and the guilt grows within him]
Ryker: I said stay off my yard, Dunn.
Sally: I'm gonna go, I just need Charmichael back.
[Ryker looks to it]
Ryker: This thing?
Sally: Y-yes! He needs his mommy!

[Gumdrops bolts off around the fence and begins panting. He looks down to see his UFO toy and the guilt grows within him]
[Cut to Sally on her home phone.]
Sally: You gotta help me!
[Cut to a girl scout answering the phone.]
Scout #1: Can I help you, ma'am?
Sally: There's been a kidnapping!
Scout #1: Wait, really? What's the situation?
Sally: My neighbor stole my beloved Charmichael!
Scout #1: That's not the punchline - it's supposed to be "yeah, he's lying down in the other room."
Sally: Why aren't you taking this seriously!? He's such a sad, scared little chameleon!
Scout #1: Your neighbor called us up because he thought you'd react like this.
Sally: W-well, you gonna do anything about this!?
Scout #1: Sorry, it's the law. If it lands on his property, it's his.
Sally: How am I supposed to get Charmichael back then!?
Scout #1: Have you considered asking nicely?
Sally: You gotta help me!
[Cut to a girl scout answering the phone.]
Scout #1: Can I help you, ma'am?

Scout #1: Have you considered asking nicely?
[Cut to a knock at Ryker's door. He opens it. Sally is standing there with big puppy dog eyes.]
Sally: Mr. Ryker sir, can you please--
[Ryker, with a consistent bored expression, shuts the door on Sally's face. The camera is to Sally's back. Gumdrops walks up to Sally nervously and tugs on her shirt. Sally turns around with an over-the-top expression of sadness.]
Sally: The puppy-dog eyes... have failed me.
[Cut to Sally tearfully sitting on her porch step]
Sally: What am I gonna do? I can't just leave him over there! Charmichael is a part of this family!
[Gumdrops walks up to Sally and gives her a sympathetic expression.]
Sally: I told you, I got more important things to do than play right now.
[Gumdrops licks sally on the face.]
Sally: Wait... you mean... you wanna help me get Charmichael back?
[Gumdrops gives a happy over-the-top nod.]
Sally: Alright, then it's time for us to stop playing nice.
[Gumdrops gets a very naughty smile.]
Sally: You know what this means, don't you boy?
[Gumdrops nods, maintaining his grin, while Sally joins in with her own.]
Sally: Lots and lots of--
[The tension ramps up, the music swells, and the camera gets closer to their maniacal expressions]
Sally: Costume changes!
[Gumdrops bounces up and down in a happy-go-lucky manner.]
Sally: Mr. Ryker sir, can you please--
[Ryker, with a consistent bored expression, shuts the door on Sally's face. The camera is to Sally's back. Gumdrops walks up to Sally nervously and tugs on her shirt. Sally turns around with an over-the-top expression of sadness.]

Sally: Costume changes!
[Gumdrops bounces up and down in a happy-go-lucky manner.]
[Cut to Ryker sitting down on his couch, watching television. Charmichael is sitting up on his shelf. There's a ring at his doorbell]
Ryker: Ugh, these Dunns.
[Ryker gets up and opens the door to reveal Sally standing there, dressed up as a mailkid with a fake novelty mustache.]
Sally: I got a package for a Mr. Ryker.
Ryker: Sally, I know that that's you.
[Sally begins sweating]
Sally: I don't know what you're talking about, sir.
[Ryker shakes his head]
Ryker: I don't think that many mailkids have mustaches.
[Sally strikes an offended pose]
Sally: Sir, how dare you!? My grandfather passed down this mustache, and his grandfather before him passed down this mustache, and his third uncle once removed passed down--
Ryker: Okay, whatever. Where's the package?
Sally: The what?
[Ryker slams the door in Sally's face.]
[Cut to Gumdrops, dressed as a mailkid, pulling up a giant present on the street in front of Ryker's house. He seems hot and tired. Sally walks by, annoyed.]
Sally: Didn't work. Let's try something else.
[Gumdrops huffs, annoyed]
Ryker: Ugh, these Dunns.
[Ryker gets up and opens the door to reveal Sally standing there, dressed up as a mailkid with a fake novelty mustache.]
Sally: I got a package for a Mr. Ryker.
Ryker: Sally, I know that that's you.

Sally: Didn't work. Let's try something else.
[Gumdrops huffs, annoyed]
[Cut to Ryker's door opening again. This time Sally is dressed up in science fiction garb with a cyber visor. Gumdrops is dressed up as a Terminator.]
Sally: Ryker, you gotta come with me! There's no time to explain! The future is in danger and you're the only one who can save it!
Ryker: I think I'll pass.
Sally: B-but, the future!
Ryker: Fine Sally... what does the future need?
Sally: Uh... a cup of sugar?
[Gumdrops turns to Sally with an annoyed "are you serious?" expression. Cut to Sally and Gumdrops walking home, Sally's head in the shape of a cup of sugar. She spits it out.]
Sally: Heh he, joke's on him. We got free sugar.
Sally: Ryker, you gotta come with me! There's no time to explain! The future is in danger and you're the only one who can save it!
Ryker: I think I'll pass.

[Gumdrops turns to Sally with an annoyed "are you serious?" expression. Cut to Sally and Gumdrops walking home, Sally's head in the shape of a cup of sugar. She spits it out.]
Sally: Heh he, joke's on him. We got free sugar.
[Cut to Ryker's door opening to Sally dressed up in a mint green tutu, a crown, and some fairy wings.]
Sally: Has a good little boy around here lost a tooth?
Ryker: No.
[Ryker closes his door, causing Sally to be knocked back to the street cartoonishly. She looks back to Ryker's house aggrivated, and then she spits out a tooth.]
Sally: Well that's ironic.
[Gumdrops walks up to her with an annoyed expression.]
Sally: I don't think that this is going to work.
[Gumdrops gives a deadpan "no really?" expression.]
Sally: We're gonna need another way in.
Sally: Has a good little boy around here lost a tooth?
Ryker: No.
[Ryker closes his door, causing Sally to be knocked back to the street cartoonishly. She looks back to Ryker's house aggrivated, and then she spits out a tooth.]
Sally: Well that's ironic.
[Gumdrops walks up to her with an annoyed expression.]
Sally: I don't think that this is going to work.
[Gumdrops gives a deadpan "no really?" expression.]
Sally: We're gonna need another way in.
[Cut to Sally in her backyard. She has a bottle of "super bubble soap" new by LucasToy.]
Sally: Super Bubble Soap! This'll do the trick.
[Sally takes out the bubble wand and blows into it, creating a larger and larger bubble that wraps around her and traps her inside]
Sally: Yes! It worked! And now I shall float away up over the fence... wait. Why am i not floating?
[Sally tries jumping, but the bubble stays on the ground]
Sally: Oh, this isn't good.
[Sally tries jumping up and down, but ends up faceplanting. She turns to Gumdrops and beats on the wall of the bubble]
Sally: Gumdrops! You gotta pop the bubble!
[Cut to Gumdrops' perspective, outside the bubble.]
Sally: [Highly muffled "Gumdrops, you gotta pop the bubble"]
[Gumdrops nods and runs off]
Sally: Good pony!
[Gumdrops comes back with a package of bubble gum. Sally looks appropriately annoyed]
Sally: Bad pony.
[The bubble pops on its own, launching Gumdrops across the yard into some debris. When Gumdrops comes to, he sees that the bubble popping had created a small crater in the backyard. Gumdrops runs over in a panic to find Sally just laying there in a bit of a daze.]
Sally: This giant crater in the yard gives me an idea!
[Gumdrops nods and picks up a pickaxe.]
Sally: Super Bubble Soap! This'll do the trick.
[Sally takes out the bubble wand and blows into it, creating a larger and larger bubble that wraps around her and traps her inside]
Sally: Yes! It worked! And now I shall float away up over the fence... wait. Why am i not floating?

[Gumdrops nods and picks up a pickaxe.]
[Gilligan cut to Sally and Gumdrops about to rent a hot-air-balloon in an open field from Balloon Kid.]
Sally: And is this balloon good for breaking into other kids' houses?
Balloon Kid: Uh... can't say I tried it, but I don't think so.
Sally: Perfect! I'll take it!
Balloon Kid: 30 Ginomon cards per ride... and uh, the pony's gonna be extra.
[Cut to Gumdrops up in the hot air balloon, way above the city of Summerway. This scene should have some atmospheric shots of the city as a whole, including the forst treeops, the lake, and the mountain surrounding it.]
Sally: Wow... you can see everything up here! The lake looks so pretty.
[Gumdrops looks over the edge down over the streets and then panickedly looks away. He clearly has a bit of a problem with heights. However, Sally is breath-takingly excited at everything they see.]
[The balloon flies over a field of giant pinwheels.]
Sally: Oooh, oooh look! The pinwheel farm! [Explaining to Gumdrops] That's how all of Summerway gets its power.
[Sally takes a refreshing breath of air and then she looks up to the balloon.]
Sally: Alright, that's enough flying around, Take us to Ryker's house
[Sally points on forward, but Gumdrops looks on confused. Sally turns to him.]
Sally: What do you mean you don't know how to fly a hot-air-balloon!? That's why I brought you along!
[Gumdrops looks exasperated.]
Sally: What are you lookin' at me for? I don't know how to fly these things.
[Gumdrops and Sally look at each other nervously, panicking. Sally looks over the edge and sees that they're not too high above the lake.]
Sally: The lake! We can make it if we jump in the lake!
[Gumdrops looks over the edge and they see that they're still quite high up. Gumdrops backs up to the corner of the balloon basket. Sally tries to push him, but he refuses.]
Sally: C-come on, you big baby!
[Cut to Balloon Kid, watching them with binoculars.]
Balloon Kid: Alright, time to let them down.
[He begins messing with buttons and dials labeled "wireless balloon controls."]
Sally: Come'on Gumdrops! If we don't jump, we're gonna die!
[Gumdrops shakes his head violently.]
Sally: And if we die, no one's gonna be able to play with you!
[Gumdrops thinks for a moment, but then goes back to refusing to move.]
Sally: And I'll never be able to brush your hair ever again!
[That rings true to Gumdrops and immediately he bolts out of the balloon basket, and plunges about three feet, slamming into the ground back at the rental place.]
Balloon Kid: Come again soon.
[Sally skips down off of the balloon]
Sally: That was fun!
[Sally thinks for a moment]
Sally: But I think we need a better way of getting into Ryker's house.
[Gumdrops shoots Sally a "you think" expression. His eyes light up with surprise and he spits out a bunch of dirt.]
Sally: Don't worry, I got a ton more ideas!
Sally: And is this balloon good for breaking into other kids' houses?
Balloon Kid: Uh... can't say I tried it, but I don't think so.
Sally: Perfect! I'll take it!
Balloon Kid: 30 Ginomon cards per ride... and uh, the pony's gonna be extra.

[He begins messing with buttons and dials labeled "wireless balloon controls."]
Sally: Come'on Gumdrops! If we don't jump, we're gonna die!
[Gumdrops shakes his head violently.]
Sally: And if we die, no one's gonna be able to play with you!
[Gumdrops thinks for a moment, but then goes back to refusing to move.]
Sally: And I'll never be able to brush your hair ever again!
[That rings true to Gumdrops and immediately he bolts out of the balloon basket, and plunges about three feet, slamming into the ground back at the rental place.]
Balloon Kid: Come again soon.
[Sally skips down off of the balloon]
Sally: That was fun!
[Sally thinks for a moment]
Sally: But I think we need a better way of getting into Ryker's house.
[Gumdrops shoots Sally a "you think" expression. His eyes light up with surprise and he spits out a bunch of dirt.]
Sally: Don't worry, I got a ton more ideas!
[Cut to a plane flying high up in the sky. Cut to inside the plane, with both Gumdrops and Sally standing around in parachute packs and skyidiving outfits. It's a skydiving plane. The kid driving the plane turns around.]
Sky Kid: So, what brings you and your pony skydiving today?
Sally: I accidentally threw my stuffed chameleon into my neighbor's yard and he's being a big jerk and holding it inside his house and I need to get it back.
Sky kid: I hate it when that happens. You know what you're doing, or do you need some instructions?
Sally: What kid hasn't gone skydiving before?
Sky kid: (laughs) Right. What about your pony, he doesn't look like he's gonna be alright.
[Gumdrops is shaking nervously]
Sally: I think that he has to go to the bathroom.
Sky Kid: Well then you'd better jump now so he can get ot it.
[The door opens and both Gumdrops and Sally fall out, Sally giggling the whole way. Gumdrops gets some over-the-top expressions of fear and nervousness.]
Sally: Weeee! We gotta go skyidiving more often! Max never wants to do it, and I don't get why.
[Gumdrops reaches for his parachute, but stops when Sally speaks.]
Sally: Oh, I get it. You're not a pony.
[Gumdrops looks offended]
Sally: You're a scaredy cat opening your parachute so early. I get it.
[Gumdrops becomes more annoyed]
Sally: I'll get you a ball of yarn and a nice scratching post and--
[Immediately Gumdrops becomes determined and takes a dive, darting towards the ground.]
Sally: [Playful] Showoff.
[Sally takes tumbles and turns, while Gumdrops dives straight down ahead as they closer and closer to the suburban areas of Summerway. Gumdrops appears to be speeding up, but then he sees a UFO off to the side flying by him. He tries to bite it as if it was his throwing disc from earlier, but it appears to be an actual UFO.]
Sally: Whatcha lookin' at, boy?
[Sally turns to the UFO, but it disappears in a flash before Sally sees it. This just leaves Gumdrops with a confused expression]
Sally: Alright, activate your parachute now.
[Sally pulls a lever and her parachute activates]

[Cut to Sally coming down into Ryker's yard by floating just over the fence and landing safely on the lawn.]
Sally: A perfect entrance.
Ryker (off-screen):b Ahem.
[Cut to Ryker standing right in front of Sally, and not even mustering the effort to look annoyed at Sally.]
Sally: Ryker! I uh... I uh... wanted to borrow a cup of sugar?
[There's a crash sound as Gumdrops lands in the tree and his held upside down by his parachute. He gives Ryker a nervous smile.]
Ryker: What did I say, Dunn!? One more time and I will call up the scouts.
Sally: P-please Ryker! I need Charmichael! I can't live without him!
Ryker: Which is why you tossed him over here, right?
Sally: I keep telling you that it was an accident!
[Cut to Gumdrops, hanging upside down, looking guilty.]
[Cut to Ryker taking out his cellphone.]
Ryker: Only a few more buttons before I get the scouts. You stay on my yard anymore, and not only will you not have that stupid lizard doll, but you'll be in time out too.
[Sally hesitates, and so Ryker begins dialing. Gumdrops gets out of his bindings and charges, ramming Sally and bringing both of them safely off of Ryker's property.]
Ryker: At least one of you Dunns knows to stay off my property.
Sally: A perfect entrance.
Ryker (off-screen):b Ahem.

Ryker: At least one of you Dunns knows to stay off my property.
[Cut to Sally sitting down in her living room, looking sadly at a photograph of Charmichael. Gumdrops comes in and tries to give Sally another sympathetic look.]
Sally: Go away, I wanna be alone right now.
[Gumdrops comes back with a combat helmet.]
Sally: You heard Ryker, if we try to get Charmichael again... the scouts will come. And, and, and-- I don't even wanna think about this! That poor little chameleon is probably so worried right right!
[Gumdrops exits the house, sadly.]
Sally: Go away, I wanna be alone right now.

[Gumdrops exits the house, sadly.]
[Cut to Gumdrops passing by the UFO toy. He gives it an angered expression, and then it transforms into a sad expression. He picks it up, and looks at Sally being sad through the window.]
[Cut to Ryker sitting in his living room, reading. The doorbell rings.]
Ryker: I swear, if that's Sally--
[Ryker opens the door to see Gumdrops standing there with the UFO toy in his mouth.]
Ryker: What do you want? I'm not giving that lizard doll back.
[Gumdrops drops the UFO toy on the doorstep.]
Ryker: I'm not playing fetch with you either.
[Gumdrops shakes his head. He looks to the side and points to Charmichael with his nose.]
Ryker: A trade?
[Gumdrops nods his head.]
Ryker: And you promise Sally's not going to spend all night trying to break into my house trying to get it?
[Gumdrops nods his head again.]
[Ryker rolls his eyes and hands Gumdrops the Charmichael doll.]
Ryker: Fine, take your stupid lizard thing.
[He slams the door on Gumdrops' face.]

[He slams the door on Gumdrops' face.]
[Cut to Sally sitting down sadly on the couch. Gumdrops places Charmichael down next to her. It takes a second for Sally to notice, but when she does, her eyes light up.]
Sally: C-Charmichael!?
[Sally scoops him up and hugs him closely.]
Sally: Oh, how I've missed you so much! Did Ryker feed you lunch? No, of course he didn't.
[Sally rushes off into the kitchen, and Gumdrops just sighs in relief. He looks through the doorway to Charmichael sitting in his high chair again, with its consistent dopey-eyed expression. Gumdrops sticks his tongue out at the thing in annoyance, Sally turns to him.]
Sally: Oh Gumdrops! You wanted the pudding too? You shoulda asked!
[Sally shoves a spoonful of pudding into Gumdrops' mouth, causing him to have the appropriate disgusted expression. Iris out on it.]
