Dani’s Family Feud/Transcript

Introduction
Arthur walks up to a tree.

Oscar: Hi, tree. How's it going? Trees don't say much. Maybe that's why I don't notice them most of the time. But there's a lot going on in them. There is a nest on a branch. Birds make their homes there, so do bugs. A bird looks into a tree hole, causing a beetle to scream. Cats love to climb trees. ''Nemo sneaks up on the bird, which flies away. Arthur climbs the tree.'' And kids do too. Yup, everyone likes a good tree. I wonder what life would be like without them? The tree disappears and Arthur falls down. Ahh! ''He picks up his glasses. Nemo falls down beside him. The birds’ nest falls and a group of beetles fall down. Other trees disappear causing birdhouses, feeders and swings to fall down.'' Good thing that'll never happen. Right?

Title Card: Slot Machine: Muffy
''Muffy walks the ground of the Crosswire mansion followed by Bailey. They come to a big blooming cherry tree.''

Muffy: Now, it's a spring party theme, so everything has to be springy. We'll have a pink and green tent over there, and the trained poodles here. And here is where the main attraction will be.

She shows Bailey a picture in the “Lil’ Mogul” magazine.

Bailey: St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow? I fear the Russian government may not approve of its relocation, Miss Muffy.

Muffy sits down on a swing that is hanging from the cherry tree.

Muffy: No, silly. It's a giant bouncy castle. It just looks like that other thing. You know, I've never liked bouncy castles, but there's something about this one that's different.

Bailey: The heart is indeed mysterious, Miss Muffy. However, the dimensions of this are quite large. Are you sure it will fit here?

Muffy: Of course it will. I'll just have Daddy move some things around.

She takes the magazine and leaves.

Mr. Crosswire looks at the “Lil’ Mogul” magazine in his office.

Mr. Crosswire: Sorry, Muffin, but we can't get Anastasia's Dream Palace. It's too big.

Muffy: What?!

Mr. Crosswire: I just spoke with the gardener, and the yard's just not big enough.

Muffy: But the bouncy castle is the centerpiece of the whole event!

Mr. Crosswire: Why don't you get the bouncy pirate ship instead? That could fit.

Muffy: A pirate ship? Daddy, how could you?!

She walks out.

Mr. Crosswire: I'm sorry, sweetums, but there's nothing I can do. We can have the poodles!

Muffy closes the door.

''Mr. Crosswire looks sad. He looks out of the window, then he smiles and picks up the phone.''

Mr. Crosswire: Anton? This is Ed Crosswire, your neighbor. I have a proposition for you.

***

The next morning Muffy walks into the dining room where her dad is having buns and coffee.

Muffy: (sighs)

Mr. Crosswire: Morning, princess. Hot Crosswire bun? Made them myself.

Muffy: No, thank you. I'm not hungry.

Mr. Crosswire: Well, maybe I could interest you in...this.

He removes a silver lid from Muffy’s plate, revealing a picture of the bouncy castle and the words “Order Placed”.

Muffy: (gasps) Yay! The bouncy castle. But I thought you said that there was no room.

Mr. Crosswire: There wasn't until I did a land swap.

He unrolls a map of the property.

Muffy: A what?

Mr. Crosswire: I gave our neighbor this little wooded area here, and he gave us a bigger field right here. We'll even have room for that tennis court I wanted.

Muffy hugs him.

Muffy: My Daddy's the most brilliant businessman in the world! Ah! I'd better get to work on those invitations. She runs out. Bailey!

***

''Muffy sits at a table and signs envelopes which Bailey licks and closes. One falls through Arthur’s letter slot. Buster finds one in his mailbox and Francine gets one directly from Mr. Higgins the mailman. Mrs. Barnes brings Binky and envelope while he is having breakfast.''

***

Francine lies on Muffy's bed.

Francine: Is it a Ferris wheel?

Muffy: Nope.

Francine: A chocolate fountain?

Muffy: No.

Francine: Is it bumper cars? Please say it's bumper cars!

Muffy: Sorry. You'll just have to wait till the party to find out what the big surprise is.

She comes out of her closet with two dresses.

Muffy: Now, which one do I wear? Classy or sassy?

A chainsaw is heard outside.

Francine: What's that sound?

The girls look out of the window.

Muffy: (gasps)
