Scenes with Lisa 52

[Corduroy and Rosetta gets the radio out of Lisa's bed]

Voila! I told you there was a radio under there.

Was it hiding, Rosetta?

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Lisa must have forgotten it. But now we have found it, alors. [turns her back and then tries to turn on the radio] Oh. Oh! [shakes her head] Ahem. Corduroy? A winding, if you please.

[Corduroy picks up Rosetta and winds her up turning her wind up key. He puts Rosetta down --after winding up her key-- and Rosetta pushes a button on the radio and the orchestra music plays. Now Corduroy and Rosetta are dancing to the music. They are acting like dancers]

[while dancing to the music] This must be a concert. I've always wanted to go to a concert.

[In Corduroy's imagination, Corduroy imagines that he and Rosetta are the music conductors. And Corduroy gives the orchestra band some wonderful music. A lady plays a tuba, Seven men plays the bass, A women and her husband plays the flute and a brown man plays the trumpet. Corduroy keeps playing some wonderful music. Back in reality, Lisa comes home and turns off the radio causing Corduroy and Rosetta to stop dancing]

[finds out why Lisa turns off the music] Why has the music stopped?

Lisa, you turned off the radio.

LLisa

There's much better music to listen to.

[points to the radio that played the song which he and Rosetta were dancing to and says to Lisa that he and Rosetta like that music] But I like that music!

LLisa

No, this music is much better, Corduroy. Trust me. [turns on her other radio but makes jazzy music] Ew! [changes the radio channel but makes country music this time] Ew, yuck! [one radio channel has piano music] Uh-uh. [founds a radio channel that has dance music] There, that's more like it. [shakes her head]

But why do we have to like only one kind of music?

[about the same music Lisa likes] You mean: "Why do we have to likes only the same music Lisa likes?".

LLisa

That's not true. [to Corduroy and Rosetta] Oh, go ahead. [gives Corduroy and Rosetta the radio] Listen to what you want.

[Lisa and Corduroy are washing their hands in the kitchen]

LLisa

We have to clean our hands and paws before we start!

[Lisa accidentally squirts water on Corduroy]

[laughs] Hey!

LLisa

[giggles] Oops!

LLisa

Okay! This is going to be great!

[off-screen] What's that?

LLisa

It's Lisa's Lip-Smacking Lemonade. [smacks her lips]

[while Lisa adds sugar to the lemonade] Maybe you should measure the sugar before you put it in.

LLisa

Ohh! What's one or two spoons, huh?

That's looks like a lot of sugar!

LLisa

Now, here we've got some leftover macaroni, [dumps the uncook macaroni into the bowl] so I'm going to make a pasta salad. But first, I have to make the dressing.

[Lisa takes the soy sauce, the vinegar and the other dressing out of the shelf]

LLisa

[off-screen] Okay, vineger [pows the drop of vineger into the bowl] Soy sauce, [pows the drop of soy sauce into the bowl] Oh, Mom's favorite, hot peppers! [put the hot peppers into the bowl and then the coconut and the chocolate chips] Uh, coconut, chocolate chips. Hmm, prune juice. [on-screen] Never tried that before, but I bet it's really good. [pows the drop of prune juice into the bowl]

[Lisa and Moppy's kite crash together]

LMLisa and Moppy

[gasp]

[The broken kites fall into the tree]

Look what you did!

LLisa

Me? Your kite bumped into mine!

It did not!

LLisa

Did too!

Did not!

LLisa

Did too!

Did not!

Uh oh, Looks like big trouble.

What is a dinosaur?

LLisa

Dinosaurs, they lived millions of years ago. And they were very big.

Even bigger than Buckaroo?

[Buckaroo lets out a neigh in response.]

LLisa

They were a lot bigger than Buckaroo.

[In Lisa and Corduroy's imagination --which is to the prehistoric world-- they both meet Stegosaurus again and this time he's perfect. As for the "age of dinosaurs" subject, the "age of dinosaurs" is really Lisa and Corduroy's imagination from the dinosaur book. So Lisa and Corduroy are really in her dinosaur book --from the library-- meaning that they are just pretending like they are so. The Stegosaurus is actually Lisa and Corduroy's model dinosaur in disguise and not a real dinosaur. The period of time they are in right now is the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods. That is, since the Tyrannosaurus Rex is also encountered too.]

Are you still wobbly?

SStegosaurus

Nope! See? [shows his perfect parts]

LLisa

Are you still cold?

SStegosaurus

Not anymore. Feel my skin! So soft and warm! [Lisa and Corduroy feels Stegosaurus' skin and Stegosaurus begin to laugh] That tickles! [off-screen] Would you like to hear me roar?

Sure! Go ahead!

[Stegosaurus roars loudly as a flock of pterosaurs fly away. The pterosaurs were a Pterodactylus. Indeed, the pterosaur Pterodactylus lived in the Jurassic period. But while it was a flying reptile and not a dinosaur, it did live in the same period of time as the Brachiosaurus, Diplodocus, and Stegosaurus. Pterosaurs lived at the same time as the dinosaurs. The Brachiosaurus was seen in Lisa's dinosaur book. The Diplodocus was encountered by Lisa and Corduroy earlier.]

SStegosaurus

[laughs] I can roar even louder If you like.

[Lisa and Corduroy look at each other]

LLisa

That's okay.

SStegosaurus

Maybe you like to go for a ride.

A ride?

LLisa

Sure!

SStegosaurus

Just watch out for my back and tail. They're pointy.

[Lisa and Corduroy hop on Stegosaurus' back and Stegosaurus walks away with Lisa and Corduroy]

LLisa

Mom, can I get some new sneakers, please?

LSLisa's Mom

Whatever for? Yours are still in good shape.

LLisa

But they don't even compare to Moppy's. He got all this neat stuff on his sneakers. Mine are just so boring!

LSLisa's Mom

[thinking Lisa is trying to follow the crowd after she saw Moppy's new sneakers] You shouldn't place so much weight on appearances. [thinks Lisa is better off not following the crowd] Your sneakers are perfectly fine.

LLisa

You mean perfectly plain!

LLisa

Corduroy, you silly bear!

[pretends to be a real bear] Roar!

LLisa

[sees that Corduroy was imitating a real bear roaring] We can play later, Cordy, but first I have to get this tent set up. Moppy's going to be here any minute.

Moppy's coming here?

LLisa

[while finishing setting up the tent] He's staying for a sleepover.

[peeks into the tent] A sleepover? [walks to Lisa] I want to have a sleepover, too!

LLisa

Okay, you can have the bedroom.

[jumps for joy] Yay, I'm going to have a sleepover! [giggling] Lisa?

LLisa

Yes?

What's a sleepover?

LLisa

[explains to Corduroy about a sleepover] It's kinda of like a party, where your friends come over and stay all night. You get to play games and stay up late.

That sounds like fun! I know who I'm going to have at my sleepover! [leaves Lisa's tent while giggling]

[Lisa went to her bedroom until she realizes Corduroy is having his own sleepover]

LLisa

[thinks Corduroy, Buckaroo, and Rosetta are in her room --though they had gone out to Lisa's tent] On second thought, maybe Cordy did want to have his own sleepover. Then maybe I shouldn't bother him. [yawns]

[Lisa turns her back to the bedroom door and went to the living room until she finds Corduroy, Rosetta, and Buckaroo in her tent]

LLisa

[off-screen; to Corduroy, Buckaroo, and Rosetta] What are you (three) doing here?

[about why he, Buckaroo, and Rosetta could not sleep even though he wanted to have his own sleepover] We missed you!

[also about why he couldn't sleep] We couldn't get to sleep!

[adds her reason about not being able to get to sleep] Je ne comprends pas! I do not understand!

[Rosetta notes that she tried singing Corduroy a lullaby to help him go to sleep but that didn't work.]

Even my singing (on a lullaby) did not help!

LLisa

[tells them that they may not be ready to have their sleepovers yet] Maybe you're not ready to sleep on your own yet.

CRCorduroy, Rosetta, and Buckaroo

Mmm-hmm.

[Corduroy, Buckaroo, and Rosetta nod as they are now part of Lisa's sleepover. Later, the scene cuts to the living room --shown where Lisa and her toys Corduroy, Rosetta, and Buckaroo are in the tent. Lisa and her toys play with Lisa's make believe planetarium pretend to look at the stars and constellations. Lisa shows her toys the star constellations with her make-believe planetarium. This is shown on the black sheet that she had showed Moppy. They are having a short time playing or "short use" with the planetarium to see the stars before bedtime.]

LLisa

[showing Rosetta a constellation] Do you see that group of stars, Rosetta? [off-screen] That's Cassiopeia. But I think she looks more like a mouse.

[Cassiopeia's nose twinkles. Rosetta --when she sees the mouse constellation-- reacts to it.]

Did you hear that? I look just like a queen!

LLisa

[showing Buckaroo a constellation] Do you see that group of stars over there, Buckaroo? That's Pegasus the Horse.

[Pegasus's right eye twinkles. Pegasus the horse does look like Buckaroo the rocking horse. Buckaroo --when he sees the Pegasus the Horse constellation-- mimics a real horse neighing.]

I like that one!

Is there a bear anywhere?

LLisa

[shows Corduroy two constellations] Actually, there are two bears. [off-screen] There's Ursa Minor --he's the little bear. And that one over there, that's Ursa Major --he's the big bear.

[Lisa shows out the final two constellations before everyone goes to bed.]

[to Lisa about the bear constellations --Ursa Minor and Ursa Major] Someday, I'm going to be a big bear. Right, Lisa?

[After the last constellation, Lisa puts the flashlight down, turns off the flashlight and takes down the black sheet planetarium so everyone stops playing and are led to go to bed. Corduroy is now in bed has told himself he is going to be a big bear like Ursa Minor and Ursa Major]

LLisa

[tucks Corduroy into bed] You're already a big bear, Cordy.

Good night, Lisa.

LLisa

Sleep tight, Cordy.

[Lisa, Corduroy, Rosetta, and Buckaroo are fallen fast asleep. Then the curtains closed the tent as the episode ends]

You want to hear a joke?

LLisa

Sure.

Knock, knock.

LLisa

Who's there?

Amos.

LLisa

Amos who?

A mosquito just bit me! [laughs]

[Lisa starts to laughs until she feels tooth because she now has a bad toothache]

Usually everyone laughs when I tell them that one.

LLisa

The joke's funny, but this toothache isn't.

Toothache?!

LLisa

I'll tell my mom as soon as I get home (to the building).

You're gonna tell your mom?!

LLisa

Sure, why not? (What can go bad?)

Because she'll make you go to the dentist.

LLisa

So? I've been to the dentist lots of times. It's no big deal.

It is a big deal if you've got a toothache.

LLisa

What do you mean?

[tells Lisa a story about when Moppy himself got a little toothache last year and about his older/younger brother who also went to the dentist] Last year I had a little toothache and I ended up getting three fillings! See? [shows Lisa his teeth fillings] And he froze my mouth with a needle this long!

[Lisa gulps in horror.]

[he continues his story] Then my brother went to the dentist because he had a toothache too! AND THE DENTIST PULLED HIS (MY BROTHER'S) TOOTH RIGHT OUT!

[Lisa is shocked about Moppy's story. Because he --Moppy-- and his brother both had an experience at the dentist when they both had toothaches.]

LLisa

I thought the dentist would just make it feel better (on you and your brother).

MSMoppy's Dad

Make what feel better?

LLisa

Well...! Oh, nothing.

[In Lisa's room, Corduroy is riding on Buckaroo]

Giddy up! [laughs]

[Lisa enters her room and finds Corduroy who is rocking Buckaroo too fast]

LLisa

Corduroy? What are you doing?

I'm riding on Buckaroo! [stops rocking Buckaroo]

LLisa

How many times have I told you not to rock so fast?

[sighs; tells Lisa about her warning about Corduroy not rocking him too fast] I've tried telling him. (And he won't just listen.)

LLisa

You're going to have to be more careful or else you're going to --ow-- hurt yourself.

What's wrong?

LLisa

I have a toothache.

Can't you get it fixed?

LLisa

I think I'll wait for it to get better on its own. [finds some library books] Oh, I left some books in the living room. Be right back, Cordy. Mom's taking us to the library. [leaves her bedroom and close the door]

Okay, giddy up, Buckaroo!

But Lisa said... Oh, all right.

Faster! You can do it! [falls off Buckaroo] Whoa! Ow!

[gasps; to Corduroy] Are you all right?

[gets up and sees that he has scraped his elbow] I think I scratched my elbow. [to Buckaroo] You aren't gonna tell Lisa are you?

Hmm...

[off-screen] Lisa?

LLisa

Cordy, what happened?

[about how he fell off Buckaroo and scraped his elbow yesterday] I hurt it yesterday when I fell off Buckaroo. I was riding him to fast.

[Lisa --unaware of the fact that her toothache is still there-- becomes concerned about Corduroy's injury when he --Corduroy-- rocked on Buckaroo the rocking horse too fast and fell off of him.]

LLisa

You should have told me right away.

[Lisa picks up Corduroy.]

LLisa

Come on, I'll fix it up for you.

[In the bathroom, Lisa --despite still feeling her toothache-- puts the bandage on Corduroy's scraped and cut elbow.]

LLisa

There. How does it feel?

[feels the bandage on his cut after he fell off Buckaroo] Much better.

[Corduroy, he hugs Lisa.]

LLisa

[feels the toothache] Ow!

Sorry, I must have squeezed too hard.

LLisa

[to Corduroy while feeling her tooth] It's not your fault. It's my tooth.

Didn't get better on its own?

LLisa

[about her toothache] I was hoping it would but it's getting worse! It hurts when I eat something hot, it hurts when I eat something cold, it hurts when I laugh, and it hurts when I sleep!

[Lisa walks around as she talks about her toothache. Then she goes over to Corduroy. That is, despite his injury being healed after falling off Buckaroo.]

LLisa

[turns to Corduroy about it] But now it even hurts when you hug me!

What are you going to do?

LLisa

[sadly --and to answer Corduroy's question] Something that I should have done a long time ago!

[Later, the scene cuts to where Lisa and Corduroy are in the living room with Lisa's mom. Lisa is going tell her mom the truth about her toothache.]

LSLisa's Mom

[to Lisa when she had not admitted the truth yet about her toothache and not yet had told her about it in the first place] Why didn't you tell me sooner?

LLisa

I would have but I was afraid of the giant needle.

LMLisa Mom

The giant needle?

LLisa

It's this long!

LSLisa's Mom

Mm, and where did you hear about this?

LLisa

Moppy.

LSLisa's Mom

I'm pretty sure Moppy's exaggerating.

LLisa

Why would he do that?

LSLisa's Mom

I know he didn't mean any harm. Sometimes when you worried about something your mind exaggerates things like the size of a needle.

LLisa

You mean it's not this big?

LSLisa's Mom

More like this small. The needle is just meant to keep you from being uncomfortable. You can hardly feel it.

LLisa

And I'm not going to get my teeth pulled out either?

LSLisa's Mom

Your teeth pulled out? Goodness, no. Whoever told you?

[Lisa's mom thinks that Lisa have heard that from Moppy.]

LSLisa's Mom

Let me guess.

[Lisa and her mom started to laugh.]

LLLisa and Lisa's Mom

Moppy.

[They continue to laugh. But Lisa's tooth hurts when she laughs. And she --Lisa-- says...!]

LLisa

[in pain] Ow!

DDentist

There's no need to be nervous. I'm just going to take a picture of your teeth.

LLisa

I like getting my picture taken.

[thinking] Me too.

[In Lisa and Corduroy's first imagination, they're in a photo booth getting their picture taken]

LLisa

Not like that, Cordy. [giggles] Like this! [makes a funny face] Aaahhh.

[The camera from the booth takes a picture of Lisa and Corduroy making funny faces]

[In Lisa and Corduroy's second imagination, the waiter give Lisa plate of spaghetti and red sauce]

LLisa

It looks delicious.

WWaiter

And for you, sir. Enjoy. [he leaves]

Mm! [slurps]

[Corduroy takes out a fork and eats a bit spaghetti and swallows it. He and Lisa laugh]

[At the art gallery --Lisa's mom's art gallery-- with Lisa, Corduroy, and Rosetta, Corduroy is playing with the art as he jumps up and down when he's trying to climb on the statue until Lisa picks him up. At this, Corduroy thinks that he and Rosetta can do anything they want in the art gallery just because no one else is in it nor using it. So when Corduroy asks Lisa to "help him climb the statue", Lisa picks him up thinking she might do so. Corduroy, he says...!]

[laughing] Help me up, please!

[As Corduroy says this, he is trying to get Lisa to help him climb on the statue as he jokingly wants to climb it. But Lisa, she says...!]

LLisa

[knows the truth about the "HANDS OFF" signs --meaning "look but don't touch"] Sorry, Cordy. No can do.

[Lisa calls to Rosetta who is also playing on the art. Rosetta is swinging on the red ropes.]

LLisa

[turns to Rosetta] Come on down (from the red ropes), Rosetta.

[believing the art gallery is closed for today] But the art gallery is closed today. No?

[Rosetta also thinks that she and Corduroy can do anything they want in the art gallery.]

That means we have the whole place to ourselves!

LLisa

[to Rosetta] (Not quite, Rosetta.) It's great that Mom is letting us wander around while she's working.

[Lisa continues to Corduroy and Rosetta about the art gallery and its rules. She says it is for everyone and talks to them about the ropes in the gallery.]

LLisa

[to Rosetta about the ropes] But those ropes aren't for playing. [then to Corduroy about the art sculptures] And neither is this art.

I'm not supposed to play here?

LLisa

Uh-uh. These red ropes are for keeping people from getting too close to the art. It means look but don't touch.
