Samantha quotes from Timothy Goes to School

Timothy, you have mail.

Really, Mom? For me?

It has your name on it.

Wow, what is it?

There's only one way to find out.

Hmm...

Open it.

What does it say?

It says: "Guess who's invited to Mrs. Jenkins' kindergarten class at Hilltop School?"

Me! I'm invited. Can I go, Mom?

Yes, Timothy. It's time to go to school.

Right now?

Tomorrow, after one more sleep. Good luck.

[looks through himself in a small mirror from the card] Wow.

[whispering] Mom.

What's the matter, Timothy?

I won't know anybody.

Sure you will. [off-screen] Doris will be on the bus.

[with an unhappy expression] Doris?

[to her son] Have a great day. [kisses him] Good luck!

[first lines] Hi, Timothy. I'm Henry. [off-screen] All aboard for Hilltop School.

Hi, Henry.

Doris

[first lines; off-screen] Hey, Timothy! [on-screen] Come sit with me! Ha, ha!

[to Doris] Hi, Doris.

[first lines; with a happy smile] Hello.

[seeing Yoko for the first time] Hi.

Do you think I'll win a gold medal, Mom?

[giggles] I think you'll have fun trying.

Guess what. Frank and Frank are going to sleep over tonight. Big Frank has to use his bulldozer to fix a bridge.

What? Here? Tonight?

Yes, dear.

Oh.

I thought you liked Frank and Frank.

I do, but...

What?

Are they staying for dinner?

Yes.

Well, don't use those. Use the real plates.

But I thought you liked those plates.

Well, I just don't want Frank and Frank to think I'm a babe for some reason.

Okay.

Claude didn't let me do anything, Mom. Not anything. I don't care if our space shuttle wins the special prize. It's no fun being partners with Claude. Isn't it?

Oh. I'm so sorry, honey.

[when Grace had to miss out with doing her talent in the Talent Show after breaking her ankle] It is such a shame about Grace's ankle. Isn't it?

[sitting next to Timothy's mom] She was so looking forward to the show.

Where's Yoko?

Oh, she doesn't like me any more. She found something better to do.

What's she doing?

She has to practice for a special dance recital.

Oh, Yoko still likes you, honey. She's just busy, is all.

Really?

Of course.

Timothy, the bus is here.

Coming, Dad!

Timothy? [hands the lunchbox to her son] Don't forget your lunch, dear.

Thanks, Mom. [to his dad, Larry, as he walks past him] Bye, Dad.

Have a great day, Timothy. [as his son walks into the bus] Remember to use sunscreen.

OK. [to Henry] Hi, Henry.

[from off-screen] Hi, Timothy.

Hey! This is for me!

Wow.

Fritz

[voice over] Dearest Timothy, Our new place is great. Mom was right. There's a big tree in the backyard, and my room is huge. I found this shell on the beach near my house. It's my favorite. And I want you to have for your collection. I miss you a lot, I can't wait to see you during the holidays. Bye for now. Your friend, Fritz.

Wow! Where did you get this marvelous shell, Timothy?

From my good friend, Fritz.

Mom, in my last letter, Fritz said he had a big surprise for me. It sure is taking a long time.

Yes, it has been a while.

I like getting letters from him, and I like sending him letters, but--

But you miss him, huh?

I miss playing with him.

Well, maybe you and Fritz can visit each other sometime?

I guess.

You can do all the fun things you used to do.

I just wish he still lived here so I can play with him all the time.

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.
