Sally the Pet-Sitter
|
[This episode starts on a crudely drawn poster in crayon. It says "Sally's Pet Siten Servace" and has many stick figure animals drawn all over it. The camera pans back to show Max holding it in the living room of the Dunn house. Max has a very unimpressed expression.]
Max: Another one of these crazy job ideas? Sally: Yeah! I don't know why I didn't think of this one sooner. I thought that since I was doing such a good job taking care of Gumdrops, I could try taking care of other kids' pets. [Cut to Gumdrops. He has just survived a bad game of "dress up" with random shapes markered onto his face, his hair in random strands, with random accessories everywhere. He's always wearing a very wrinkled dress. He gives an annoyed snort. Cut back to Sally and Max.] |

Max: Can we talk about this one, Sally?
Sally: Sure, but you gotta hurry up. My customers are gonna be here soon. I hung these flyers up all over town!
[A meowing sound is heard, the doorbell of the Dunn house.]
Sally: That must be the first one now.
Max: Sally, you know that taking care of other people's pets is a really big responsibility, right?
Sally: Do you know who you're talkin' to? They don't call me "The Animal Princess" for nothing!
Max: No one calls you that.
Sally: That's just semantics.
[Moewing is repeatedly heard. Sally walks towards the door.]
Sally: I don't know what you're complaining about anyway, Max.
Max: What do you mean?
Sally: When I amaze everyone with my stupendous pet sitting abilities I'm gonna be the one takin' us all to the fanciest joint in town tonight - Lucky Cheeses!
[Sally thinks happily about the restaurant for the beat before the doorbell interrupts her again.]
Sally: I'm coming! I'm coming!
[Sally walks to the door, and begins thinking to herself.]
Sally: Oh I can't wait to see what cat or dog or maybe even a special little lizard that I get to spend the day with!
[Sally opens the door and comes face-to-face with a giant kangaroo wearing a dog collar. The kangaroo is so large that Sally needs to look up to meet it eye-to-eye.]
[Beat.]
[Sally blinks. he kangaroo blinks in response. A very small child - Customer #1 - steps out from behind the kangaroo, holding the leash.]
Customer #1: Are you Sally Dunn?
[Sally is focused on staring at the kangaroo.]
Sally: Uh... huh...
Customer #1: Awesome! This is my pet kangaroo, Jasmine! She eats three times a day and loves to take walks. I'll be back to see her at five!
[The customer hands Sally the leash. Sally takes it, still in her daze.]
Customer #1: See ya.
[Customer #1 runs off, but Sally still hasn't broken away from her surprise.]
Customer #1: Have fun Jasmine! Don't bite!
Sally: B-bite!?
[The kangaroo stares down Sally. Max comes onto frame.]
Max: What? Did you think you'd only be watching cats and dogs when kids could get any pet that they wanted?
Sally: I... uh...
[The Kangaroo lowers her head and begins to sniff Sally's hair.]
Max: I mean, if you're not up for it, there's still time--
[Jasmine licks Sally's face affectionately and the tension is immediately broken. Sally laughs and looks at Max triumphantly.]
Sally: Of course I'm up to it! You're look at the Animal Princess, remember?
Customer #2 (voice over): Oh uh... Sally Dunn, the Animal Princess?
Sally: Yeah, that's me--
[Sally pridefully turns towards Customer #2 with her eyes closed. She opens them to see Customer #2, an older child, holding a small monkey.]
Customer #2: Great! This is Zeke.
[Sally is once again dragged into surprise. Customer #2 tries to place the monkey in Sally's arms, but he proves to be incredibly clingy and does not want to be separated from his owner.]
Customer #2: He's a little bit clingy.
Sally: Yeah, I can see that.
Customer #2: Come on, stay with Sally. She'll take good care of you. Daddy has to go now.
[Customer #2 only barely manages to break away and leave the monkey in Sally's arms. Customer #2 bolts and takes off running. The monkey becomes desperate to break away from Sally's arms. He begins attacking her in order to escape.]
Sally: Wait! I have a couple of questions!
Customer #2: I'm sure you'll figure it out! You're lucky I got him unhooked!
Sally: Y-yeah, what kind of kid doesn't know how to care for a monkey?
Max: The Animal Princess, perhaps?
[Sally looks at Max and gives him an offended expression. However, it doesn't last long as the monkey violently tries to break free. In desperation, Sally walks back into the house and tries to hold him tightly. She only barely manages to close the door behind her.]
Sally: Why can't the kids of Summerway have normal pets?
[Right after Sally says this, Gumdrops tumbles down the stairs and ends up crashing into the wall by the door. He gives Sally a cartoonish, dazed expression.]
Sally: Gumdrops, what did I tell you about the stairs?
[Gumdrops shoots back an annoyed expression. Then he notices that Sally is struggling to hold a monkey, and gives a very confused expression.]
Max: Well, you have fun with all of this. I have to get to my own job.
[Sally turns to him flustered.]
Sally: You can't just leave me like this! How am I supposed to take care of a kangaroo and a monkey?
Max: Well, I suppose you're right. We could go track down the pet owners. They might be a little annoyed, but I'm sure they'll be understanding. And then you'll realize that you bit off more than you could chew and when all is said and done, I'll be able to say "I told you so."
Sally: YOU WOULDN'T DARE!
Max: Sally, it's okay if you can't handle this.
Sally: I can handle this easily! I'm the Animal Princess, remember?
[Cut to Sally standing there, very desperately holding the monkey. The kangaroo starts chewing Sally's hair. Gumdrops walks up, and gives the monkey a narrow stare.]
Max: Whatever you say, Sally.
[Cut to Max walking through the driveway to the Dunn car. As he walks, he hears an explosion behind him.]
Sally (voice over): I said don't touch that!
[Max doesn't even look back. He just shakes his head.]
Customer #3 (off-screen): Hey, is this where Sally Dunn lives?
[Cut to reveal Customer #, riding on a small elephant. It's about twice the size of the Dunn car. Max keeps the same deadpan expression. This doesn't surprise Max at all.]
Max: Oh yeah, "The Animal Princess." She's here.
[Cut to Sally standing in the front doorway, her eyes are as wide as pie plates.
Customer #3: And remember, he needs to eat a lot.
[The elephant happily blows its trunk.]
Customer #3: Okay Rudolph, have fun!
[Sally happily looks at the camera, leash in her hand with a slight twinge in her eye. The monkey is throwing things off of the shelves. The kangaroo is eating the sofa cushions, and the elephant is spinning around on the merry-go-round coffee table.]
Sally: [Mantra] I can handle this. I can handle this. I can handle this.
[As Sally says this, more animals fade into the scene. A large snake hangs down from the tree limb monkey bars. A komodo dragon appears to be enjoying the ball pit. A lion wearing a tutu is on the swing chair, ignoring the kangaroo eating it.]
Sally: I CAN'T HANDLE THIS!
[A chicken pops out from behind Sally and sits on her her head. It gives a loud cockle-doodle-doo, drawing Sally's attention to it.]
Sally: Lemme guess.
[The chicken jumps away and Sally has an egg on her head.]
Sally: Yeah, I thought so.
[Sally continues to walk through the living room, which now looks more like a jungle. She's already very manic, but as she walks, the egg bounces but it doesn't break.]
Sally: Let's see here, there are... ten animals, I think. Let's see, there's the elephant, the kangaroo, the lion
[Sally passes by a top hat and pulls out a hare.]
Sally: I don't know who you think you're fooling. I still know you're a hare, not a rabbit.
[The hare gives Sally a very annoyed expression]
[A frog jumps and lands on Sally's face, knocking her over and the egg into the sky. The frog ribbits, hops away, and Sally gets up.]
Sally: I... I...
[The egg falls down and splatters on Sally's face, for a beat. The monkey points and laughs at Sally. A cat's meow is heard. The meow happens over and over again repeatedly.]
Sally: Someone take care of the cat!
[Beat.]
Sally: Oh wait, that's like the one animal I don't got here.
[Sally gets up.]
Sally (voice over): I said don't touch that!
[Max doesn't even look back. He just shakes his head.]
Customer #3 (off-screen): Hey, is this where Sally Dunn lives?
[Cut to reveal Customer #, riding on a small elephant. It's about twice the size of the Dunn car. Max keeps the same deadpan expression. This doesn't surprise Max at all.]

Sally: Someone take care of the cat!
[Beat.]
Sally: Oh wait, that's like the one animal I don't got here.
[Sally gets up.]
[Cut to a shot of the door. It's the doorbell going off. Sally apprehensively approaches it and opens the door. Sally tries to put on a smile, but it's very transparently fake. Especially because she still has egg on her head. There are crashes and feathers flying everywhere in the back. Customer #4 looks in nervously.]
Sally: Hello, you've reached the home of Sally Dunn, the Animal Princess, how may I help you?
Customer #4: Is this a bad time?
[Sally tilts her head to the side in a creepy manner. Some of the egg droops down.]
Sally: I don't know what you're talking about. This is an average day at Casa de Sally.
Customer #4: Well uh... this is Horace, can you take care of him?
[Customer #3 reaches into his pocket and pulls out... nothing.]
Sally: I'm sorry, but I don't take care of imaginary friends.
Customer #4: Oh Horace isn't imaginary--
[Suddenly a chameleon appears in Customer #4's hands, right out of thin air.]
Sally: A CHAMELEON!
[Sally scoops up the chameleon and starts cooing over it.]
Sally: Of course I'll take of this little guy. Chameleons are my favorite!
Customer #4: That's great! When can I pick him up?
Sally: [Absorbed] At 5... or 6... or 7... or whenever is good for you.
Customer #4: Sounds good.
Sally: Hello, you've reached the home of Sally Dunn, the Animal Princess, how may I help you?

Sally: [Absorbed] At 5... or 6... or 7... or whenever is good for you.
Customer #4: Sounds good.
[Cut to Sally walking through the living room, into the kitchen, staring at the chameleon. As she does, she gets rammed by Gumdrops. The chameleon goes flying onto the counter, and within a second, it vanishes.]
Sally: The chameleon!
[Sally turns to Gumdrops]
Sally: What'd you do that for!?
[Gumdrops gives Sally a very annoyed expression. Sally falters.]
Sally: Oh don't give me that look. It's almost as bad as "I told you so."
[Gumdrops' look intensifies. The kangaroo starts eating Sally's hair.]
Sally: Stop eating my hair!
[Beat]
Sally: Alright, I'll call for help. Where's my cellphone?
[Cut to the monkey in the living room, holding Sally's cell phone. It begins dialing numbers. Sally runs into the living room.]
Sally: Hey! Gimme that! It's mine!
[Sally ends up tripping over the komodo dragon and crashing into the shelf the monkey was on top of. Random games rain down on Sally, increasing her daze. The monkey laughs and then uses the tree-branch monkey bars to escape, holding the phone. Sally angrily turns to the komodo dragon. It drops a ball by Sally and wags its tail.]
Sally: I can't play now. I gotta get my phone back!
[The komodo dragon hisses at Sally. She rolls her eyes and throws the ball. It bounces off the lion, making it very mad. Sally's eyes widen with fear.]
Sally: The chameleon!
[Sally turns to Gumdrops]
Sally: What'd you do that for!?
[Gumdrops gives Sally a very annoyed expression. Sally falters.]
Sally: Oh don't give me that look. It's almost as bad as "I told you so."
[Gumdrops' look intensifies. The kangaroo starts eating Sally's hair.]
Sally: Stop eating my hair!

Sally: I can't play now. I gotta get my phone back!
[The komodo dragon hisses at Sally. She rolls her eyes and throws the ball. It bounces off the lion, making it very mad. Sally's eyes widen with fear.]
[Cut to Sally running up the stairs, with the lion dead on her trail. It roars, and Sally takes a quick turn into her room and slams the door. Sally takes a deep breath of relief. Then the lion starts banging on the door. Sally manages to keep it shut.]
Sally: It's weird how the jungle in here is the calmest room in the house.
Customer #2 (voice over): I'm not home right now, so you'll have to leave a message.
[Cut to the monkey up on Sally's bed, swinging back and forth, pressing buttons on the phone.]
Monkey: (Monkey noises)
Sally: Hey! That's my phone! Give it back!
[The monkey throws the phone at Sally and it clonks her on the head. It accidentally speed dials a number. Cut to Max in his office. He answers his office phone.]
Max: Hey Sally. Are you handling things okay?
[Cut to the monkey ignoring Sally. It sees Charmichael. He picks it up and hugs it affectionately. The monkey seems affectionate towards the stuffed animal.]
Sally: Hey!
[Cut back to Max]
Sally: You stupid monkey face! Let go of my stuff and never touch it again!
Max: Is this because of earlier? If it is, then I'd just like to apologize--
[The phone battery dies.]
Phone: Battery dead. Battery dead.
Sally: You stupid monkey! You used up all my battery!
[The monkey blows a raspberry at Sally and jumps down. he starts running around Sally's tree, and Sally chases it until she ends up lost and dizzy. Sally hears her door close and runs over to it and opens it. The lion roars in her face. Sally quickly starts running backwards until she accidentally falls out her window.]
Sally: Oh yeah... my room's on the second floor.
Sally: It's weird how the jungle in here is the calmest room in the house.
Customer #2 (voice over): I'm not home right now, so you'll have to leave a message.
[Cut to the monkey up on Sally's bed, swinging back and forth, pressing buttons on the phone.]

[Cut back to Max]
Sally: You stupid monkey face! Let go of my stuff and never touch it again!
Max: Is this because of earlier? If it is, then I'd just like to apologize--
[The phone battery dies.]
Phone: Battery dead. Battery dead.
Sally: You stupid monkey! You used up all my battery!
[The monkey blows a raspberry at Sally and jumps down. he starts running around Sally's tree, and Sally chases it until she ends up lost and dizzy. Sally hears her door close and runs over to it and opens it. The lion roars in her face. Sally quickly starts running backwards until she accidentally falls out her window.]
Sally: Oh yeah... my room's on the second floor.
[Sally immediately plummets to the ground and lands in a pile of raked leaves that splash everywhere. Sally looks forward, annoyed. Gumdrops walks over to her.]
Gumdrops: (Horse noises)
Sally: For the last time, no I am not in over my head.
[Both Gumdrops and Sally hear a bit of metal moving. Sally looks to the back door of her house and sees the monkey giving her another raspberry. Sally tries opening the door, but finds it's locked. Sally knocks on the door, but the monkey pulls down the shade.]
Sally: Alright, think Sally. You're locked out of your house and your cell phone is dead. The only good thing about this is that it can't get any worse.
[The sound of thunder is heard. Sally angrily looks up.]
Sally: Don't you start with me too!
[The clouds in the sky depart and a sun beam rains down on Sally.]
Sally: That's better. If only I could get these animals to listen to me too.
[Cut to a click sound and the door opening. Gumdrops stands aside with a lock-pick in his mouth.]
Sally: Since when did you... nevermind. There are some things that it's better not to know the answer to. Let's go get control of these animals.
[Gumdrops nods.]
Gumdrops: (Horse noises)
Sally: For the last time, no I am not in over my head.
[Both Gumdrops and Sally hear a bit of metal moving. Sally looks to the back door of her house and sees the monkey giving her another raspberry. Sally tries opening the door, but finds it's locked. Sally knocks on the door, but the monkey pulls down the shade.]

Sally: Since when did you... nevermind. There are some things that it's better not to know the answer to. Let's go get control of these animals.
[Gumdrops nods.]
[Cut to Sally opening the door, and finding that the kitchen is in absolute chaos. The elephant is eating straight out of the fridge, the chicken is swimming in the sink as it overflows, and the snake is straight-up trying to eat the table.]
Sally: Alright! Listen up!
[The animals stare at her.]
Sally: This is my house, so I'm the one who's in charge, and you all gotta do what I say!
[There's a whistle sound. Sally's attention is brought to the living room. The monkey is the one that whistled, and it has Charmichael.]
Sally: Hey! Give that back!
[Sally tries to run forward. Gumdrops tries to stop her, but fails. As Sally runs into the living room ,the komodo dragon pulls back a jump rope tied to a table and Sally crashes down. She ends up scraping her knee.]
Sally: Not cool guys! This really hurts...
[Sally tries to nurse it. Gumdrops comes up, looking sympathetic, but the kangaroo notices her and picks her up, leaving Gumdrops with a shocked expression.]
Sally: W-what are you doing? Bad kangaroo! Put me down!
[The kangaroo hugs Sally and starts rocking her back and forth.]
Sally: Wait, I'm not a joey!
[The kangaroo doesn't buy this argument and puts Sally in her pouch. Sally tries to struggle out, but she finds herself stuck.]
Sally: Wha-I'm stuck! I can't get out!
[The kangaroo bounces into the kitchen, past Gumdrops.]
Sally: Gumdrops! Don't just stand there! Help me!
[Before Gumdrops can do anything else, a roar is heard from upstairs. Gumdrops looks up shocked.]
Sally: Alright! Listen up!
[The animals stare at her.]
Sally: This is my house, so I'm the one who's in charge, and you all gotta do what I say!
[There's a whistle sound. Sally's attention is brought to the living room. The monkey is the one that whistled, and it has Charmichael.]

Sally: Wha-I'm stuck! I can't get out!
[The kangaroo bounces into the kitchen, past Gumdrops.]
Sally: Gumdrops! Don't just stand there! Help me!
[Before Gumdrops can do anything else, a roar is heard from upstairs. Gumdrops looks up shocked.]
[Cut to the kitchen. The kangaroo is hopping forward and doesn't see butter that's fallen on the ground. The kangaroo steps on it and slips backwards. As they fall down next to the butter, Sally sees this as her opportunity to escape. She grabs the stick of butter with her teeth.]
Sally: [mouth full] Gross! Gross! Gross!
[Sally uses the butter to help her squeeze out of the kangaroo's pouch. She pops out, and falls on the kitchen floor face first. A red ball is dropped by Sally's face. Sally looks up. It's the komodo dragon, wanting to play fetch.]
Sally: You tripped me! Why would I want to play fetch with you?
[The komodo dragon hisses again]
Sally: Uh... Gumdrops!? Where are you!?
[Cut to Gumdrops happily putting lipstick on the camera back up in Sally's bedroom. Cut to reveal the lion all made up. Both Gumdrops and the lion laughs.]
[Cut to Sally backing away from the very angry komodo dragon. She just happens to back up to the kangaroo. The kangaroo eagerly picks Sally up, and the komodo dragon gives a very satisfied smile.]
Sally: I AM NOT YOUR--
[Sally finds a baby bottle forced into her mouth by the elephant, and the kangaroo gives a smile of her own. As Sally drinks, her eyes get dazed, and she's forced into the pouch once again.]
Sally: [Mutteringly] I said I am not your--
[As the kangaroo bounces up and down around the house, Sally finds herself slowly falling asleep.
Sally: [mouth full] Gross! Gross! Gross!
[Sally uses the butter to help her squeeze out of the kangaroo's pouch. She pops out, and falls on the kitchen floor face first. A red ball is dropped by Sally's face. Sally looks up. It's the komodo dragon, wanting to play fetch.]
Sally: You tripped me! Why would I want to play fetch with you?
[The komodo dragon hisses again]
Sally: Uh... Gumdrops!? Where are you!?

Sally: [Mutteringly] I said I am not your--
[As the kangaroo bounces up and down around the house, Sally finds herself slowly falling asleep.
[Cut to Sally walking up in panic on the half-eaten sofa.]
Sally: JOEY!
[Sally looks around her house. It's destroyed, but quite barren. This is clearly caused by the front door being left open.]
Sally: This is bad. This is really bad!
[Gumdrops happily trots down the steps.]
Sally: Gumdrops! W-where are the animals?
[Gumdrops is instantly hit with the realization and looks immensely nervous.]
Sally: That stupid monkey must have let them all out! They could be anywhere in Summerway by now!
[Cut to a crash coming from outside the window. Sally rushes to the door and sees that the hare is hopping around inside Ryker's house. Coincidentally, Ryker is pulling up to the driveway.]
Sally: Ryker's gonna kill me if he thinks I set an animal lose in his house.
[Sally and Gumdrops look to each other nervously.]
Sally: You distract Ryker and I'll go get the hare!
[Gumdrops nods.]
Sally: JOEY!
[Sally looks around her house. It's destroyed, but quite barren. This is clearly caused by the front door being left open.]
Sally: This is bad. This is really bad!
[Gumdrops happily trots down the steps.]
Sally: Gumdrops! W-where are the animals?

Sally: Ryker's gonna kill me if he thinks I set an animal lose in his house.
[Sally and Gumdrops look to each other nervously.]
Sally: You distract Ryker and I'll go get the hare!
[Gumdrops nods.]
[Cut to Ryker exiting his car, holding groceries. He comes face-to-face with Gumdrops. Gumdrops stares Ryker in the eyes, intensely.]
Ryker: What do you want?
[Gumdrops keeps staring]
Ryker: Get away from me, you stupid--
[Gumdrops walks a couple of steps closer to Ryker. Ryker steps back]
Ryker: What are you doing, you--
[Gumdrops reaches into Ryker's grocery bag and takes out a carrot. Then Gumdrops runs down the street, clearly expecting Ryker to chase him down.]
Ryker: Doesn't Sally feed you? I thought she was good with animals or something.
[Ryker opens his door to find that everything in his house is a mess. Sally takes a dive at the hare, but misses.]
Ryker: DUNN!
[Both the hare and Sally look at Ryker nervously]
Sally: Uh... Dunn? What Dunn? I don't know any Dunns.
[Sally turns towards the hare]
Sally: Do you know any Dunns?
[The hare shrugs back.]
[Cut to Sally and the hare being flung out of Ryker's house and into the mud. Gumdrops walks by, carrot in his mouth. Sally looks up to see Gumdrops eating what's left of the carrot]
Sally: Oh yeah, steal his carrot. That was a real fine idea!
[Gumdrops smiles]
Sally: That wasn't a compliment!
[The hare struggles to get away, but Sally clings on tightly.]
Sally: Oh no you don't! You can't trick me. After all, tricks are for kids!
[The hare looks at Sally with a very annoyed expression]
Sally: Whatever, I thought it was clever.
[Sally looks to Gumdrops.]
Sally: Where do you think the other animals are?
[All three of them start thinking.]
Sally: Hmmm... considering that this day is trying to be the worst day possible, I'm gonna guess that the animals are gonna be in the worst place possible...
[Beat]
Sally: Which means--
[Sally hops on Gumdrops]
Sally: Gumdrops! Full speed ahead to Lemonade Land!
Ryker: What do you want?
[Gumdrops keeps staring]
Ryker: Get away from me, you stupid--
[Gumdrops walks a couple of steps closer to Ryker. Ryker steps back]
Ryker: What are you doing, you--
[Gumdrops reaches into Ryker's grocery bag and takes out a carrot. Then Gumdrops runs down the street, clearly expecting Ryker to chase him down.]
Ryker: Doesn't Sally feed you? I thought she was good with animals or something.
[Ryker opens his door to find that everything in his house is a mess. Sally takes a dive at the hare, but misses.]
Ryker: DUNN!
[Both the hare and Sally look at Ryker nervously]
Sally: Uh... Dunn? What Dunn? I don't know any Dunns.
[Sally turns towards the hare]
Sally: Do you know any Dunns?
[The hare shrugs back.]
[Cut to Sally and the hare being flung out of Ryker's house and into the mud. Gumdrops walks by, carrot in his mouth. Sally looks up to see Gumdrops eating what's left of the carrot]
Sally: Oh yeah, steal his carrot. That was a real fine idea!
[Gumdrops smiles]
Sally: That wasn't a compliment!
[The hare struggles to get away, but Sally clings on tightly.]
Sally: Oh no you don't! You can't trick me. After all, tricks are for kids!
[The hare looks at Sally with a very annoyed expression]
Sally: Whatever, I thought it was clever.
[Sally looks to Gumdrops.]
Sally: Where do you think the other animals are?
[All three of them start thinking.]
Sally: Hmmm... considering that this day is trying to be the worst day possible, I'm gonna guess that the animals are gonna be in the worst place possible...
[Beat]
Sally: Which means--
[Sally hops on Gumdrops]
Sally: Gumdrops! Full speed ahead to Lemonade Land!
[Cut to Sally arriving at Lemonade Land. She looks into the window. Nothing crazy or chaotic is currently going on.]
Sally: Well, it looks calm at least.
[Cut to Anna walking up to Neven at the restaurant podium.]
Anna: Uh... Neven, what do I do about the chicken?
Neven: Anna, we don't serve chicken here.
Anna: Really? That's kinda rude. This is a pretty nice chicken.
Neven: What are you talking about?
[Cut to the chicken at one of the Lemonade Land tables, reading off of a menu. Cut to Sally biting her lower lip.]
Sally: I'm gonna go inside. You watch the hare--
[Sally hands Gumdrops the hare.]
Sally: And this time, don't let it get away!
[Sally hands the hare to Gumdrops, and the hare is understandably annoyed.]
[Sally enters Lemonade Land, and tries to sneak past the waiter's podium. However, Neven stops her.]
Neven: I assume the chicken is your doing?
Sally: Chicken, what chicken?
[Cut to Anna talking to the chicken.]
Anna: Oh, and I recommend the double lemonade supreme. It comes with a really cool crazy straw. It's egg-cellent if I do say so myself.
[The chicken gives Anna a very annoyed look]
Anna: I guess you would have heard 'em all, huh?
[Cut back to Sally talking to Neven. Sally starts begging]
Sally: Please don't tell my brother! If he catches wind of this, he's gonna say "I told you so!"
[Niall walks by, pushing a broom.]
Niall: Dude, "I told you so"? Not cool. Not cool at all.
Sally: Yeah, but I'm gonna get one if I screw this up!
Neven: Fine, take the chicken and go.
[Cut to Sally grabbing the chicken, who desperately tries to escape from her clutches.]
Anna: Wait!
[Sally turns around to find Anna holding a paper baggie.]
Anna: Almost forgot your doggy bag.
[The chicken takes the bag, smiles, and stops struggling. As Sally is about to exit through the door, Niall stops her.]
Niall: Good luck keeping it a secret by the way. No one here is able to get anything past Max.
Sally: I think I'll manage. I just need to keep all this discreet.
Sally: Well, it looks calm at least.
[Cut to Anna walking up to Neven at the restaurant podium.]
Anna: Uh... Neven, what do I do about the chicken?
Neven: Anna, we don't serve chicken here.
Anna: Really? That's kinda rude. This is a pretty nice chicken.
Neven: What are you talking about?
[Cut to the chicken at one of the Lemonade Land tables, reading off of a menu. Cut to Sally biting her lower lip.]

[Sally hands Gumdrops the hare.]
Sally: And this time, don't let it get away!

[Cut to a television framing the screen. The logo for "SNN" appears on screen with a news jingle.]
Harper (voice over): Welcome to Summerway News Network!
[Cut to Harper sitting at her interview chair, holding a notepad in one hand and a crayon in her other hand.]
Harper: Today we've got a special interview guest--
[The camera pans back to reveal the frog sitting across from Harper]
Harper: This frog that snuck into the studio!
Guest #1 (voice over): Hey, you said that you were gonna interview me!
Harper: The frog was here first. So Mr. Frog, do you gots opinions on stuffs?
[The frog ribbits.]
Harper: Fascinating.
[Cut to a couple of kids watching this news show in an ice cream parlor.]
Ice cream kid #1: You know, this frog has some pretty good ideas.
Sally (voice over): Excuse me. Scuze me!
[Cut to Sally walking through the news studio audience towards the stage.]
Sally: Desperate pet sitter coming through!
[Sally grabs the frog on the chair.]
Harper: And introducing my new interview guest, this girl here.
Sally: What?
Guest #1 (voice over): Hey, what about me!?
Harper: You gotta wait your turn like everybody else!
Sally: I... gotta go.
Harper: Harper Clementine reporting, this strange frog girl who snuck into the studio "has to go." What could she mean by that? Let's see if I can get the full scoop.
[Cut to Sally sitting at the chair sometime later and laughing]
Sally: And when I was five, I said "pancakes! No way!"
[Harper looks at her with a deadpan expression.]
Sally: Uh... what's going on?
Harper: You sat there in silence for ten minutes and then said "and when I was five, I said 'pancakes! No way!'"
Sally: I really gotta stop doing that.
Harper: Alright, weird frog girl! Everyone gives her a round of applause!
Guest #1 (voice over): Is it my turn?
Harper: Sorry, that's all our time for today.
[Cut to Guest #1 looking very upset, standing right in front of Deadpan Girl from the pilot.]
Guest #1: But I was gonna talk about some serious problems that the Summerway public needs to know about.
Deadpan Girl: And you thought that the news would be a good way to do it?
[Cut back to Harper]
Harper: Breaking news! We have reports of a crazy girl trying to get a snake off of a skyscraper in the Treetops District!
Harper (voice over): Welcome to Summerway News Network!

[Cut back to Harper]
Harper: Breaking news! We have reports of a crazy girl trying to get a snake off of a skyscraper in the Treetops District!
[Cut to a girl who is clearly not Sally reaching for a snake hanging off of the branches of one of the giant tree skyscrapers in the Treetops District. Down on the ground, Sally looks up, wearing the snake pet as a boa. Gumdrops is walking by her. Gumdrops is wearing pouches that hose the chicken, the hare, and the frog. Sally looks up.]
Sally: Wow, that girl is crazy. Glad out snake didn't get lost up there. We might never have got him down.
[Sally starts counting on her hands]
Sally: Let's see... we just have the kangaroo, the lion, the (growls) monkey, and the komodo dragon...
[There's the sound of a bounce. Sally looks to see a kid bouncing a ball on a bench.]
Sally: Hey kid!
Bench kid: Yeah, what do yeah want?
Sally: Can I borrow that ball?
Bench kid: Why should I?
Sally: If you let me borrow it, I'll show you a magic trick.
Bench kid: Alright, lemme see it.
[The Bench Kid offers Sally the ball. She throws it.]
Bench Kid: Hey, what did you do that for!?
Sally: Three, two, one--
[The komodo dragon returns with the ball, drops it, and wags its tail.]
Bench Kid: Woah.
[The kid picks up the ball and looks at it.]
Bench Kid: That's cool. Can you do anything else?
[The Bench Kid looks around to find that Sally and her animals are nowhere to be found.]
Bench Kid: Disappearing act, a bit cliche, but I like it.
Sally: Wow, that girl is crazy. Glad out snake didn't get lost up there. We might never have got him down.
[Sally starts counting on her hands]
Sally: Let's see... we just have the kangaroo, the lion, the (growls) monkey, and the komodo dragon...

[The Bench Kid looks around to find that Sally and her animals are nowhere to be found.]
Bench Kid: Disappearing act, a bit cliche, but I like it.
[Cut to Sally walking through the park, alone.]
Sally: Now that Gumdrops is at home watching the other animals, all I have left is the monkey and THE KANGAROO!
[The kangaroo bolts towards Sally.]
Sally: No! No! No!
[Sally runs off and the kangaroo chases her with a happy-go-lucky smile, as if nothing's wrong in the world. Eventually Sally trips over a root. She turns around and looks on frightened as the kangaroo gets closer and closer. Sally looks to the side and points.]
Sally: Hey uh... there's a joey over there.
[Sally ends up pointing at a young boy, apparently named Joey.]
Joey: Hey, don't drag me into this. You got yourself into this mess.
[The kangaroo happily hops forward. Sally looks up and grows a smile. Sally lifts up her arm and is taken away by the chair swing ride.]
Sally: Ha ha! Stupid kangaroo! Can't catch me now!
[However, as the ride spins and spins Sally finds herself slipping off of the ride. Try as she might to hang on, it isn't long before Sally finds herself flung. The kangaroo opens her pouch and once again Sally ends up trapped inside. She tries to pull herself out, but can't.]

[Cut to the kangaroo bouncing down one of the streets of the deeper city.]
Sally: Where are we going!? Your owner is gonna be home soon, and if we're not there, we're both gonna be in trouble!
[The kangaroo doesn't seem to listen to Sally.]
Sally: I hope Gumdrops is having an easier time than I am.
[Cut to Gumdrops at home. Gumdrops is blindfolded and nervous. However, the camera pans back and shows that he's just playing a game of "pin-the-tail-on-the-pony." He places it down perfectly and the snake takes off his blindfold. All of the animals celebrate and confetti rains down.]
[Cut back to Sally, boredly being dragged around in the kangaroo's pouch.]
Sally: Am I just a doll to you or something!?
[As if to answer Sally's question, the kangaroo stops in front of a storefront of a window with baby things on display. Sally looks very shocked. Suddenly there's the sound of tapping on glass from above. Sally looks up to see the monkey tapping on a glass door of an apartment balcony in one hand, and holding Charmichael in the other.]
[The camera shows through the glass door, and the answering machine that exists in the apartment.]
Customer #2 (voice over): I'm not home right now, so you'll have to leave a message.
Monkey (voice over): (Monkey noises)
Sally: Hey! That monkey still has Charmichael! Give it back!
[The monkey turns and laughs at Sally. Sally looks back angrily. The monkey makes mocking baby cradling motions.]
Sally: Oh, you wanna play that game, huh? Oh mommy! That mean monkey stole baby's special stuffed chameleon!
[The kangaroo looks up at the monkey. The kangaroo strikes and angry expression and the monkey grows more and more nervous. The kangaroo tries jumping, and while the kangaroo is able to jump high, it doesn't get anywhere close to the monkey. The monkey blows a raspberry.]
[The kangaroo becomes extremely angry, but in the end it's forced to start walking away. The monkey gives a cheery laugh, only to find himself staring at the kangaroo's face seconds later. The kangaroo had apparently climbed onto the roof, using a fire escape.]
Sally: Ha ha, you're gonna get it now.
[The kangaroo puts Sally down on the balcony and pats her on the head. Then the kangaroo grabs the monkey, forcing him to drop Charmichael. Sally quickly scoops it up. The kangaroo holds the monkey up with a sadistic smile. Sally looks into the apartment and sees many pictures of Customer #2 and the monkey having fun together.]
Sally: Wait... you weren't trying to cause me trouble. You were just trying to get home.
[The kangaroo looks to the monkey as if to ask "is this true?" The monkey quickly nods up and down, as if its about to cry.]
Sally: You were gonna see your owner again. He was just busy today.
[The kangaroo starts rocking the monkey back and forth and immediately becomes calm. Sally looks at the clock inside the building.]
Sally: Speaking of that, we gotta get back to my house before he does! Let's go!
Sally: Where are we going!? Your owner is gonna be home soon, and if we're not there, we're both gonna be in trouble!
[The kangaroo doesn't seem to listen to Sally.]
Sally: I hope Gumdrops is having an easier time than I am.
[Cut to Gumdrops at home. Gumdrops is blindfolded and nervous. However, the camera pans back and shows that he's just playing a game of "pin-the-tail-on-the-pony." He places it down perfectly and the snake takes off his blindfold. All of the animals celebrate and confetti rains down.]

[The kangaroo starts rocking the monkey back and forth and immediately becomes calm. Sally looks at the clock inside the building.]
Sally: Speaking of that, we gotta get back to my house before he does! Let's go!
[Cut to Sally walking up to her house, holding Charmichael. The monkey is sleeping in the kangaroo's pouch.]
Sally: And we're home... what's left of it anyway. Max is gonna kill me when he sees what happened to it.
[Sally opens the door and sees that all of the animals are working on rebuilding the house. Many of them are wearing construction helmets. The elephant is repainting the walls. Gumdrops is in the center of the room, and looking at a page of blueprints.]
Sally: Gumdrops! How'd you get all of them to behave?
[Gumdrops shrugs with a smile.]
Sally: You must have like a way with animals or something!
[Gumdrops gives a deadpan stare.]
Sally: Either way, the owners are gonna be here soon! We gotta make sure we got everyone.
[As Sally says each of the animals, the camera montages over them.]
Sally: Let's see, we got the monkey, the kangaroo, the frog, the chicken, the snake, the lion, the elephant, the hare, the komodo dragon, and... who are we missing?
[Beat]
[Sally gets an extreme close-up.]
Sally: THE CHAMELEON!
[The chameleon materializes on Sally's face and gives her a smile.]
[Sally just starts laughing. It starts normally, but it quickly gets more and more maniacal until all of the animals look at her worried.]

[Cut to later that night. Max pulls up in the driveway with the Dunn car. Customer #2 comes by and Sally gives him the monkey, who is still sleeping.]
Customer #2: I really hope that Zeke wasn't too much trouble.
Sally: Nah, he just really missed you. Poor guy got tuckered out. We played a lot today.
[Max walks up and looks deeper into the house, and is surprised to find that... it's completely fine. He rubs his eyes in pure disbelief. Cut to Sally counting the cards that she was given.]
Max: Wow Sally! Color me impressed.
Sally: [Gloatingly] You didn't think I could do it, right?
Max: Well...
Sally: And I said that I could do it, right?
[Max rolls his eyes.]
Max: Alright, I suppose that I deserve this one.
Sally: I. Told. You. So.
[Sally flicks Max on the nose. He's moderately annoyed. But as he starts climbing the stairs, he smiles.]
Max: Guess you'll do fine tomorrow, too.
[Beat]
Sally: T-t-tomorrow!?
Max: What, do you think that a job is just for one day, forever?
[Sally turns white as a ghost.]
Max: And since you did so well, I'm sure that your business is going to grow. Tomorrow, who knows what kind of animals you'll get.
[Sally passes out. When she wakes up, Max is standing right in her visage.]
Sally: Don't say it.
Max: Say what?
Sally: Don't say it!
Max: Oh that--
Sally: DON'T SAY IT!
Max: I told you so.
[Sally gives an annoyed expression.]
Sally: And you said it.
[Iris out on Sally's annoyed expression.]
Customer #2: I really hope that Zeke wasn't too much trouble.
