Timothy Goes to School · Season 1
What are you doing?
Hiding from Nora.
How come?
[about being Nora's servant] Being the greatest isn't so great after all. Nora keeps asking me to do stuff. I'm sick of it. (And I want to be released from this challenge.)
Maybe you should tell her.
Yeah, I should.
Is there something wrong, Nora?
NORMAN'S GONE!
Norman?
Is gone?
Ooh, I hope he doesn't come near me!
[Fritz finds the red rock on Charles's castle. Even though it was not Charles's turn yet, Charles snuck to the box, took the red rock, then he added it to his castle again when it was Fritz's turn.]
HEY...!
[Fritz looks into his rock collection box. And he finds the red rock gone --that is, when Charles took it use it for his castle.]
HE TOOK IT!
[He --after finding the red rock gone-- steals back the red rock by grabbing it off of Charles's castle; resulting the castle to get smashed a little]
[thinking about the red rock while sharpening a pencil] If I give the rock to Fritz, Charles might get mad. And if I give it to Charles, then Fritz might get mad.
Uh, I think that is sharpened enough, Timothy.
[seeing that half the pencil is gone] Oh, I guess I wasn't paying attention.
Oh, tell me about your painting, Yoko.
The birds are cranes, and they are for peace and fortune.
And what are the cherry blossoms for?
Oh, they're just pretty.
[giggles] Yes, they are.
Mama?
Yes, my Little Cherry Blossom?
Can we have juice at our tea ceremony tomorrow?
It is not customary. We have green tea and sweet cakes made with care.
Can we play games?
Yoko, is something wrong?
No, Mama. It's just that Nora says they do things differently at her house.
Then she --Nora-- should enjoy learning how we do things at our house. Don't worry, Cherry Blossom. Everyone will enjoy the tea ceremony.
[According to Yoko's mom, even though Nora does things differently at her house with her family, she is going to learn how Yoko does things at her house.]
Thank you, Mama.
[does admire Nora's treats; which are Krispie Squares] They are delicious, Nora.
[But regards to her traditional treats which are the Japanese Sweet Cakes.]
But we have Japanese Sweet Cakes.
Wait! There is more. Mama brought Japanese Sweet Cakes.
[gasps] Oh dear!
What is it, Mama?
[about the traditional treats which are the Sweet Cakes; after she forgot to bring them] I forgot to bring the Sweet Cakes!
[It is revealed that Yoko's Mom forgot to bring the traditional sweets which are the Sweet Cakes. While it is unknown where Yoko's Mom left them, it is possibly maybe she left them at home and forgot to bring them.]
But we made them special just to end the tea ceremony, Mama.
I am sorry. What should we do?
[Yoko suggests to celebrate with Nora's treats which are the Krispie Squares.]
I know. Nora made Krispie Squares.
[The scene cuts to Nora. Nora looks surprised, but smiles in a little smile. Then she --offscreen-- goes to her backpack and takes out her marshmallow bars.]
[Before recess.]
[to the class] Before we go outside to recess, there is one thing I want you to all do. It's how to say, "Thank you" in Japanese.
[As Mrs. Jenkins says this, Lilly --through a coloration error-- looks like a miniature Mrs. Jenkins.]
Maybe you should sit with Fritz on the way home?
I just don't want to sit with Fritz (on the way home)!
Well, that is good! Because I do not want to sit with you!
Can't you two stop it? You're friends.
Not any more. A good friend would trust me in the first place!
And a good friend wouldn't show someone else how to do my trick!
[off-screen] I didn't!
[off-screen] You did too!
[off-screen] I did not!
[off-screen] Did too!
[off-screen] Did too!
[off-screen] Did...!
STOP THAT! (echoes)
[Everyone looked at Grace and Timothy and Fritz fall silent. Grace sighs after stopping Timothy and Fritz's arguing about the blame.]
[to Timothy, Fritz, and the rest of the class] Timothy didn't show me the magic trick.
[Fritz knows that Timothy was right all along when Timothy had said he didn't show Grace the magic tricks. This eventually leads Grace to admit her mistake. That is as Grace --who speaks up-- says to both Timothy and Fritz...!]
I peeked in your magic book. (I am sorry.)
[to Grace] But, how did you do that? It was in my backpack!
Umm, I just took it out of your backpack.
[off-screen; gasping] GRACE...?!
[Claude, Charles, Doris, The Franks, Fritz, and Timothy stare at Grace.]
[confessing] I PUT IT BACK WHEN I WAS DONE! (echoes)
[In the end, Timothy and Fritz's friendship is restored. Grace walks away --despite restoring Timothy and Fritz's friendship.]
Mama! Mama, look! Look what came in the mail.
It is from your grandmother, all the way from Japan. You can open it, Yoko. It is addressed to you.
Okay.
[regarding about Yoko's broken taketombo] Is there something you boys want to tell me?
[dealing about their guilty conscience after they broke Yoko's taketombo] We broke it.
We were playing sports --football-- inside when we weren't supposed to.
And we made Yoko feel really bad.
I see. Well, do you two feel sorry?
Very sorry.
Really, really sorry.
And did you say "sorry" to Yoko?
Uh huh.
Yes, we did.
[tries to sort out the problem so the Franks can make it up] Well, then, I guess there's only one thing left to do.
What, Dad?
Finish the "three sorries," if you can.
"Three sorries?"
I have never heard of the "three sorries".
[lays down the three "sorries"] Well, first, there's feeling sorry, second, there's saying "sorry," and third, there's doing something to show you are sorry.
Do you have any extra ribbon, Charles?
Sure.
Thanks.
I'm going to bring my new kite to Hilltop Park, Lilly. What are you going to bring?
A blanket to sit on and an extra snack.
You need to bring more than that for a field trip!
[Grace lays down what Lilly really needs for an outdoor field trip and more than just a blanket and an extra snack.]
[to Lilly] You need bug spray, and sunscreen, and a flashlight, just in case.
[Lilly tries to count the other three things. That is, the bug spray, the sunscreen and the flashlight. When she can't count them, she says...!]
I am afraid that I don't have enough fingers to remember all that.
[True to what she says, she doesn't know if she might have enough fingers to remember all of it.]
Don't worry, Lilly. I'll bring enough for everybody.
You always know what to do, Grace.
You can sit next to me on the bus, if you like.
Thanks, Grace!
Look, there's a bug on me!
Don't worry. I have cream for anyone who gets bug bites.
[Grace knows that she is prepared to "help" one of the other students if Lily or any of her schoolfriends get insect bites --from insects-- as she has said this.]
That's okay, Grace. It's just a ladybug. [watches the ladybug fly away] And there it goes!
[It begins to rain]
[after everyone else is on the bus] Well, boys and girls, I am afraid this rain isn't going to let up. We are going to have to say "Goodbye" to Hilltop Park for tonight. (Until next year, actually. So no more Hilltop Park until next year.)
[Everyone groans when they hear that this year's day at Hilltop Park is cancelled due to the rain which causes their "Hilltop Park" day to be washed out. They let out a big, long, groan. That is, as they say...!]
[groaning] (BACK TO SCHOOL?! AND NO MORE HILLTOP PARK?!) AWE!
I hope everyone had a wonderful time.
[this is her only line and it's about the rainy day] (I know it does bite that we didn't stay the full hour and need to leave early.)
[Then the bus starts moving and on the way back to school.]
[to Mrs. Jenkins] (Yeah. I heard the weather report on the radio and newspaper. And the forecast, they did not say this. They said it was sunny all day. But today, it was rainy this afternoon. That is why the rest of it is washed out! I think the weather forecast is the one to blame.)
[also about the weather report] (I agree.)
