Mom, can I get some new sneakers, please?
LSLisa's Mom
Whatever for? Yours are still in good shape.
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.
You mean perfectly plain!
[while Corduroy looks for his button, he enters the living room and he'll look for his button in here]
[looks under the couch] Ugh! Not under the sofa!
[Corduroy squeezes out of the couch and he is covered in grey dust. He wipes out all the dust using his paw]
Button, come out, come out, wherever you are! [sneezes]
[Corduroy wipes his nose using his paw. He finds a white checker piece and --at first-- mistakes it for an overalls button.]
There you are! [the camera pans in to the white checker piece] You're not my button. You're from Lisa's checker game.
[Corduroy walks to a red sofa to believe that he found his button.]
[grunts; gasping] Why, here's my button! Here's lot of my buttons!
[Corduroy gets on the sofa and goes over to one of the button and tries to pull it off when he --like the checker piece-- mistakes the button on the sofa for an overalls button. But it's tied town tight like all the others]
They're all tied down tight! Whoa! Oof!
[Corduroy crashes into a lamp and it falls down off-screen]
[After Lisa sews the overalls button on Corduroy's overalls.]
[to Corduroy] I like you the way you are. But you are going to be more comfortable with your shoulder strap fastened.
[In Corduroy's imagination, he went to a dark, cool cave until he meet a friendly bear.]
BBear
[gasping] You're a bear!
Uh-huh! [gulps] You're not going to eat me, are you?
BBear
No, of course not. I thought you might like to sit and have some tea and muffins with me. [sighs sadly] Oh, it's because I look scary, isn't it?
BBear
No! I'm perfectly nice! [off-screen] I've been practicing laughing and smiling, [on-screen] so if anyone came and visited me in my dark, cool cave, they wouldn't be afraid! But hardly anybody anybody ever comes to visit me. [growling] See why?
BBear
You don't think I look scary?
Well, at first I did. Talking to you, I know you're not scary. Not scary at all!
BBear
[looking at a refection of himself] What's inside is what counts, right?
Corduroy, you silly bear!
[pretends to be a real bear] Roar!
[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.
[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!
Okay, you can have the bedroom.
[jumps for joy] Yay, I'm going to have a sleepover! [giggling] Lisa?
[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]
MSMoppy's Dad
Well, so far so good.
MSMoppy's Mom
[to Lisa's Mom about Moppy's first night at Lisa's place for a sleepover] This is his his first night away from home. We've worried he might get a little...
[off-screen; believing that he could stay at Lisa's place for a week] Wow! I could stay here for a whole week!
MSMoppy's Mom
[giggling] Homesick.
[Lisa went to her bedroom until she realizes Corduroy is having his own sleepover]
[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]
[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!
[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.]
[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!
[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.]
Is there a bear anywhere?
[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]
[tucks Corduroy into bed] You're already a big bear, Cordy.
[Lisa, Corduroy, Rosetta, and Buckaroo are fallen fast asleep. Then the curtains closed the tent as the episode ends]
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.
The joke's funny, but this toothache isn't.
I'll tell my mom as soon as I get home (to the building).
You're gonna tell your mom?!
Sure, why not? (What can go bad?)
Because she'll make you go to the dentist.
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.
[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.]
I thought the dentist would just make it feel better (on you and your brother).
MSMoppy's Dad
Make what feel better?
[In Lisa's room, Corduroy is riding on Buckaroo]
[Lisa enters her room and finds Corduroy who is rocking Buckaroo too fast]
Corduroy? What are you doing?
I'm riding on Buckaroo! [stops rocking Buckaroo]
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.)
You're going to have to be more careful or else you're going to --ow-- hurt yourself.
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?
[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.]
You should have told me right away.
[Lisa picks up Corduroy.]
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.]
[feels the bandage on his cut after he fell off Buckaroo] Much better.
[Corduroy, he hugs Lisa.]
[feels the toothache] Ow!
Sorry, I must have squeezed too hard.
[to Corduroy while feeling her tooth] It's not your fault. It's my tooth.
Didn't get better on its own?
[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.]
[turns to Corduroy about it] But now it even hurts when you hug me!
What are you going to do?
[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?
I would have but I was afraid of the giant needle.
LMLisa Mom
The giant needle?
LSLisa's Mom
Mm, and where did you hear about this?
LSLisa's Mom
I'm pretty sure Moppy's exaggerating.
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.
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.
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...!]
DDentist
[before starting the said dentist checkup] But first [takes Corduroy out of Lisa's knapsack and hands him to Lisa], having your bear (Corduroy) nearby may make you feel more comfortable.
DDentist
There's no need to be nervous. I'm just going to take a picture of your teeth.
I like getting my picture taken.
[In Lisa and Corduroy's first imagination, they're in a photo booth getting their picture taken]
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]
WWaiter
And for you, sir. Enjoy. [he leaves]
[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...!]
[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.]
[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!
[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.]
[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?
Uh-uh. These red ropes are for keeping people from getting too close to the art. It means look but don't touch.
[Lisa sees Corduroy is covered with clay while building his own sculpture.]
[playfully laughs] Careful, Corduroy!
[Lisa cleans the wet clay off Corduroy's head with a wet rag.]
[in between laughs] If you don't you might become Clay-duroy!
[Lisa resumes laughing. Lisa, she --funnily warns Corduroy-- and gives him a nickname to be a parody of his name. She --after she says this "If you don't, you may become 'Clay-duroy'!"-- replaces the first syllable --or "prefix"-- "Cor" in his name --which is "Corduroy"-- with "Clay". And --with the new syllable "Clay"-- she repronounces it as "Clay-duroy" for a new name on him. That is, if he is not careful and is seen covered with clay. So he --Corduroy-- is going to be "Clayduroy" forever. That is, if he is covered in clay and the clay doesn't wash off. Then she notes about the sculpture that Corduroy made.]
Your sculpture's really taking shape.
What about my painting, Lisa?
[about her painting and Corduroy's sculpture; and thinks that Lisa likes Corduroy's sculpture better than her painting] Good? Nice? Mais non, it's more than good or nice. It's...! It's a...!
[To be a parody of the word "masterpiece", Rosetta replaces the first syllable --prefix-- "mas" in the word "masterpiece" with "mouse". Then she repronounces it as "mouse-terpiece". Again, see nickname in next quote.]
[The red paint from the paintbrush lands on Rosetta's face.]
