I want to be a shutterbug.
All right, I'll go get the camera.
Really? I can use your camera?
As long as you handle it carefully.
Oh, I'll be really, really careful.
[During "Show and Share"]
I'm learning how to be a shutterbug.
Uh, a shutterbug?
What kind of a bug is it?
[giggles] A shutterbug is somebody who likes to take pictures.
Mrs. Jenkins?
Yes, Timothy.
May I take a picture of the whole class for my photo album?
A class picture. That's a grand idea!
Frank and Frank, do you want to play with me?
Do you want to play with me?
Yeah, okay.
Yeah, let's play!
Is everybody ready for square dancing?
Uh-huh.
Ready.
Yeah.
Okay then, everybody find a partner.
[Everyone expect the Franks went to find a partner]
Huh?
I don't want to be your partner! You squirted water in my face!
I do not want to be your partner! You put squeeze cheese on my chair!
[off-screen] Mrs. Jenkins?
[Frank #1 whispers through Mrs. Jenkins' ear]
All right. [to the students] Frank and Frank have something they'd like to say, everyone.
[Fritz, Yoko, Lilly, Doris and Timothy walks to the Frank twins because they have something to say to all of them when they played some practical pranks on them]
[to Frank #2] You before me, you first.
[to Frank #1] You before me, you first.
[aplogizing everyone in the school for pranking them all day] I'm sorry.
[also aplogizing everyone in the school for pranking them all day] I am sorry, too.
[off-screen] We were just trying to be funny (today).
We like your funny jokes and riddles.
Yeah. But not jokes that are mean.
Okay.
Okay.
I don't want to learn how to read.
Why not?
Because if I do, Mama won't read stories to me anymore. She says I'll be reading all by myself.
Are you sure?
That's what she told me last night.
Aren't you going to borrow any books, Nora?
Nope.
Why not?
I'd rather spin the globe.
[talking about his science project] I started working on it after school yesterday. You can see it at "Show and Share." That's when I'll do the test flight.
Test flight?
Today?
I can't wait!
I'm going to do an experiment that shows how a rocket works.
A rocket?
A real rocket?
One that'll go into outer space?!
It won't go that far, but it will fly up in the air.
Wow.
I can't wait to see it.
That'll be great!
Your rocket experiment was great!
If it was so great, why was everyone laughing at me?
We weren't laughing at you.
Yeah. We were laughing at the balloon.
[after Fritz's rocket experiment became a success during open house]
Great launch, Fritz.
You mean, Professor Fritz.
We should trade all of our (chocolate chip) cookies for butterscotch pudding.
[To trade desserts, Timothy got Fritz's chocolate cake, while Fritz got Timothy's apple crisp. But Nora does not want to trade. Unlike Timothy and Fritz, she does not want to switch. And at this she does not want to trade her pudding for cookies brought from the Franks, apple crisp by Timothy, nor chocolate cake by Fritz. Nora is unaware that she has grabbed Jack's baby food.]
[to the Franks] (Nah!) I am not trading my pudding for anything.
[Nora --still unaware that she has Jack's baby food-- she spoons into her "butterscotch pudding" and takes one bite of it. She is still unaware that she has Jack's baby food, until she takes a bite out of it after thinking it was her "pudding". After one bite, she sticks out her tongue in disgust.]
What's wrong?
It doesn't taste like butterscotch!
[Nora --after saying this-- smacks her lips.]
YUCK!
[Nora spits afterwards. That is, as Nora continues of what she just ate --and thought it was her "pudding". She finishes spitting and then says...!]
[continues --and after she finishes spitting] AND IT DOES NOT EVEN TASTE LIKE PUDDING!
[That is, after Nora's reaction when she took a bite from her "pudding", realized that her "pudding" was not really pudding, and smacked her lips from the baby food taste.]
It doesn't look like pudding either.
[Nora's "pudding" is not really pudding. When she smells it, it smells like baby food. It's really her baby brother Jack's baby food though she had thought it was pudding. And therefore, she realizes that she grabbed Jack's baby food by accident rather than her pudding. When she smells it, it is Jack's baby food. After smelling it, she pinches up her nose from the baby food smell in disgust.]
[through pinched-up nose] UGH!
[Nora tells Timothy, Fritz, and the Franks it is not pudding but what it really is]
IT IS JACK'S BABY FOOD!
[It is really her baby brother Jack's baby food. It is not pudding. At this, Nora for the second time at school has mentioned her baby brother Jack after grabbing his baby food instead of her pudding by accident. She did not know she had Jack's baby food when she tried to grab her pudding that morning.]
What?
Huh?
Baby food?!
[Frank #2 is disgusted about Nora bringing baby food, he declines to trade or share any of his cookies with someone who would ever bring baby food.]
[to Frank #1] I AM NOT TRADING ANY OF MY COOKIES FOR BABY FOOD!
[Frank #2 pushes back his cookies in disgust.]
[agrees with Frank #2 and declines about trading or sharing any of his] NEITHER AM I!
[Frank #1 also pushes back his cookies in disgust. After seeing that Nora almost got sick from eating Jack's baby food --which she had accidentally got after mistaking it for her butterscotch pudding-- the reason why they both decline sharing/trading any of their cookies for baby food is because they do not want to be sick. That is, despite seeing that Nora almost got sick from eating Jack's baby food. Nora --after lunch-- then --from offscreen-- washes down the baby food taste with a glass of water.]
Where's Jack?
I'm not drawing him on my poster.
Why not?
I'm tired of having a little brother. He's always crying or making a mess or breaking things. Isn't he?
[At this, Nora has mentioned Jack for the third time.]
[wishing he had a brother or sister] I think it would be fun to have a little brother (or sister).
That's because you don't have one.
[Ruby --from offscreen-- sees Samantha --Timothy's mom-- at the front door ready to pick up Timothy. Timothy is unaware that his mom is here. And in this scene, Samantha and Ruby --from offscreen-- approaches the kids Timothy and Nora. Timothy is still unaware until Ruby --Nora's mom-- says his mom --Samantha-- is here to pick him up. And after Ruby --from offscreen-- has met Timothy's mother --who is ready to pick up Timothy from Nora's house-- she tells him that his mom is here to pick him up. Ruby walks Samantha over to Timothy who is playing with Nora in Nora's living room. And then, Ruby --from offscreen-- says to Timothy...!]
[to Timothy] Your mom is here, Timothy.
Can any of you guess which little boy in this photo is me?
[Henry shows the students his old school day photo]
Hmm... [sees a young Henry in the photo] Hey, that's you, Henry.
You're right.
You were little (back then).
And there's my favorite teacher, Miss. Abercrombie.
[Timothy sees Miss. Abercrombie in the photo looks up at Mrs. Jenkins to believe that they're both the same teachers]
Gee, she looks like Mrs. Jenkins.
That's because it is me, my name was Miss. Abercrombie before I married Mr. Jenkins.
Your favorite teacher was my favorite teacher too.
