Fran quotes from Higglytown Heroes

Fran

My, oh, my, that's one colorful idea there, Twinkle. But the thing is, Higglytown's kinda low on Leprechauns this time of year, don't ya know?

Twinkle

[disappointed] Aw…pickles.

Wayne

This is terrible. If I can't find a way to get this lollipop out of my hair, it's gonna be stuck on my head forever. What am I gonna do?!

Kip

I wonder where Fran is. She said she was gonna meet us here.

Wayne

Yeah. Where could she be?

Fran

[hopping towards the kids, wearing a frog hat] Ribbit. Ribbit. Ribbit. Don't ya know?

Twinkle

Fran, why are you wearing that hat?

Fran

Oh, my wiggly whiskers. You kids didn't forget, did you?

Wayne

Forget what?

Fran

Why, it's Higgly Frog Day!

Higgly Frog Day?

Twinkle

[remembers] Oh, yeah! I remember! Lots of higgly frogs live in Higgly Swamp. But during the winter, it gets too cold for that. So every winter, the higgly frogs hop south where it's nice and warm.

Fran

But after winter is over, the higgly frogs return to their homes in Higgly Swamp on this very same day every year.

Twinkle

And they hop right through Higglytown on their way to the swamp.

Fran

That's right. So every year, Higglytown holds a big celebration in the town square to welcome the higgly frogs as they pass through Higglytown on their way to their swampy homes.

Kip

Well, let's get to the town square. Let's go, let's go, let's go!

The higgly frogs can't hop through all the confetti and streamers.

Fran

They sure can't. That's one big mess out there in the street. You betcha.

Wayne

This is terrible! The higgly frogs can't hop through all this trash. We need to think of some way to get rid of it.

But how?

Twinkle

[gets an idea] Oh! Oh! I know, I know, I know! First, we make a big stack of flippy floppy flapjacks. The flying fluffy frog fairies can come eat up all the flippy floppy flapjacks. The flippy floppy flapjacks will give the flying fluffy frog fairies the magical energy they need to change all the trash into little tiny bugs.

Wayne

Wait a second. I don't think I like this plan.

Twinkle

Why not?

Wayne

I don't want all those flies flying around.

Twinkle

They won't. Because higgly frogs love to eat up all the bugs they can. Then the trash will be all gone and the higgly frogs will happily hop off to Higgly Swamp with happy, full frogs tummies.

Fran

That's one magical idea there, Twinkle. But there's just one problem. Flying fluffy frog fairies don't like flippy floppy flapjacks.

Twinkle

[snaps her fingers in disappointment] Aw, pickles.

Kip

We could clean the trash up. But there's too much. It'll take us forever to clean all this up.

Wayne

What are we gonna do? We have to get all this trash cleaned up or the higgly frogs are never gonna get to Higgly Swamp.

As Higgly Frog hop-along leader, I declare that we need the help of someone special.

Kip

My Flylophone sounds just as good as the last time it buzzed. [hears bongo noises and then, Fran pops out playing her bongos]

Fran

Oh, and my bongo drums sound mighty funky, yes sir!

Fran

Well…

How bad can be?

Wayne

Ice Ketchup? Oh, I can’t wait!

Fran

1, 2, 3.

Kip

Taste.

Eww! Yuck! Gross!

Ice Ketchup doesn’t taste very good.

Fran

Oh, get your peppers around that!

Wayne

Our little seed grew, grew, grew!

Kip

Come on! Let's put in Eubie's wagon and take it to the show!

Uh-oh! I don't think Mr. Zucchini is going to fit in my wagon.

Fran

Nope. That veggie's gonna need a special delivery.

What a terrible storm! We should stay away from the window in case it rains.

Twinkle

Here comes the rain!

I'm just glad we all managed to get indoors in time.

Kip

Oh, no! Look at Pizza Guy!

I hope Pizza Guy is okay.

Fran

That was a close one.

Wayne

But wait a second. I just thought of something. Didn't Pizza Guy say you're only supposed to add "one" drop of water to his pizza pellets?

Kip

I think so. Why?

Wayne

Because all of his pizza pellets just went flying out into the storm! What's gonna happen when those pellets get soaking wet?!
