[Stanley approaches his parents, who are in the kitchen, sitting at the table.]
Something wrong, Stanley?
Well, just go and ask for it back.
He won't give it back! He says he's busy, and I keep annoying him with animals!
Why don't you go talking to him about it?
He won't listen me! He doesn't even like me!
Stanley, you know your bother loves you.
No, he doesn't. He doesn't even like being around me. He says I bother him all the time and I always mess things up. Even when I'm trying to help him.
It's true, Dad! He doesn't like animals and he doesn't like me!
Listen, Stanley. Brothers argue sometimes, but it doesn't mean they don't like each other, does it?
Yes! Maybe. I don't know.
Doesn't Lionel do things that annoy you sometimes?
Yeah! Like when he takes my book.
But that doesn't mean you don't like him anymore, does it?
And just because Lionel's annoyed at you, doesn't mean he doesn't like you.
Why don't you head back upstairs and try talking to Lionel? I'm sure you two will be able to work it out.
[Stanley knocks at Lionel's door and peeks into his room. Lionel's chair has been turned over, and Stanley's open book lying on the floor, next to it.]
Lionel? Lionel? Lionel! Are you here? [goes into Lionel's room and spots his book] Hey, my book! I'm taking my book back, Lionel! [no answer] That's weird.
[Stanley props Lionel's chair back up and looks into his book.]
What's that? [he sees a picture of Lionel's headphones in the snow] Those are Lionel's headphones. What are Lionel's headphones doing in--[horrified] Oh, no! Lionel fell into the Great Big Book of Everything!
What happened out there, guys?!
It wasn't my fault, dude!
Well, it wasn't my fault!
It wasn't me, it was you!
Guys, we don't have much time! Just tell me, what happened?
HEHarry and Elsie
We broke the Great Big Book of Everything.
[Harry and Elsie start crying.]
All the pages in the book fell out and got all mixed up!
[after leaving the Great Big Book of Everything] There were walruses, and glaciers, and turtles, and jungles, and birds, and deserts... and your goldfish could talk! That was one extreme dream.
You bet it wa-- What?! Hey, you talked! Whoa. Maybe it wasn't just a dream. Maybe it all really happened. Speak to me, dog! Speak!
But... but... but... nah, couldn't be.
