Don't Be Afraid/Transcript

[ theme song]

[It is the morning at Kate's house.]

Kate: [yawns]

Magic: [snoring]

Kate: Magic, wake up! Hey, sleepyhead! [thinks] Huh…

[Kate grabs a biscuit from a tin of dog treats.]

Kate: Magic, look what I got! [waggles a biscuit in front of Magic]

Magic: [sniffs the biscuit and gasps]

Kate: Works every time! [giggles]

[Kate feeds Magic the treat]

Magic: [barking]

Kate: [grabs Magic's collar and slides it around her wrist] Enjoying that?

Magic: What time is it?

Kate: It's pretty early.

[Magic takes a look out the window.]

Magic: Early?

Kate: We've got to look for Ava. There's no time to lose.

Magic: Yeah, but this early?

Kate: Well we don't have much longer.

Magic: Why? What's up?

Kate: Once the holidays end, I have to go back to school. To study and stuff. That means I won't have much time to search then.

Magic: Oh right. That makes sense.

Kate: Come on then! Let's go. We have to try and find the princess.

Magic: Well then in that case where do we start?

Kate: I do have an idea.

[Kate and Magic visit the library.]

Kate: We have to get organized.

Magic: I thought we were!

Kate: Well, so far we've had no real plan. We've just looked here and there without thinking about it. Hmm…but now I have an idea that should make things easier!

Magic: Is that why we're in the library?

[Kate walks to a bookshelf and takes a book.]

Kate: Yes, for this! It's a map of the city. Now that we have this map, we can plan our search out a little bit better.

Magic: Let's go then!

Emily's mother: Oh, Emily, another cat book?

Emily: But I like cats!

Emily's mother: You have just about every cat book ever written!

Emily: It's not the same as having a cat…a real one.

Emily's mother: Not now; we've already discussed this!

Emily: But mom, I…

Emily's mother: Ugh, if I get the book could we stop talking about this?

Magic: Maybe we should talk to her.

Kate: Maybe. Put the collar on! [puts the collar back on Magic]

[Kate and Magic approach Emily.]

Magic: [barking]

Emily: What a cute dog!

Kate: Do you like dogs too?

Emily: Of course! But I love cats.

Kate: But your mom doesn't?

Emily: That's right. It's not her fault; she's just a bit scared of them, that's all.

Kate: Afraid of cats? That's unusual.

Emily: I know. But you can't just tell someone not to be scared, can you?

Kate: I suppose not.

Emily: You know, sometimes words are just not enough. Anyway, I gotta go. Bye.

[A Friendship Trail is manifested from Emily's heart and flies into the Friendship Heart. Emily's face shows up on the jewel.]

Kate: Magic, that girl needs a kitten!

Magic: [smiles]

Kate: Let's go! Hurry! [runs off]

[Magic follows Kate to the other side of the shelf.]

Kate: [takes the collar] ''My puppy and I, together forever! That's all I want!''

Magic: ''Katie and I, together forever! That's all I want!''

[The two travel to Pocketville and teleport to the castle.]

Kate: We'll need the Pocketpedia!

Magic: Do you think it'll show us the right kitten for Emily?

Kate: But…what else is there, Magic? It's all that we have! [places her hand on a book] Please, Pocketpedia, can you help us, even for a kitten? Uh, I guess not.

Magic: Just try another question.

Kate: A question?

[The Pocketpedia activates.]

Kate: [gasps]

Magic: Look, it's moving!

[The Pocketpedia shows a page with several cats huddling behind a question mark.]

Kate: Cats of all breeds and a question mark? What does that mean?

Magic: Maybe it has no idea.

Kate: Or…maybe it's trying to tell us to ask the right question!

[flashback]

Emily: You can't just tell someone not to be scared, can you?

[exit flashback]

Kate: Huh…I wonder…

Magic: Huh? What are you thinkin'?

Kate: Maybe, the right kitten for Emily is the one who can tell her mother how to stop being scared of cats!

Magic: And you're going to ask every pet in Pocketville?

Kate: No, just the cats!

[In the Ever Grey Swamp, Eva and her gang discuss about a new plan. Eva is gazing into her half of the Friendship Heart, which shows a question mark.]

Eva: I don't get it!

Zull: It's a question mark!

Gort: A question mark is a [Eva: Huh?] form of punctuation. It indicates a question has been-

Eva: I know what a question mark is!

[Zull and Gort are confused.]

Eva: But why has one appeared in the Friendship Heart? I bet it has something to do with Kate. Maybe she's back in Pocketville!

[Zull and Gort continue to look at Eva.]

Eva: Don't just stand there! Go and fetch Krakia! She could fly to the castle…and find out!

[In Pocketville, Krakia scouts above to search for Kate and the others.]

Krakia: [thinks] Hmm…it's always me…just because I can fly I have to do all the donkey work… [hides behind a building] Now what are they doing?

[A line of cats step right up to offer useful answers to the Royal Guards.]

Danny: Oh, I really like a quiz!

Mela: Asking all the cats in Pocketville how Emily's mom can overcome her fear of cats? Whoo, that's ambitious!

Balloon: Huh? Um… [glanced at Krakia]

Mela: Balloon, what do you think about it?

Balloon: I want to hear what they say. [walks over to the line]

Kate: So you are…?

Milo: My name is Milo!

Kate: So, Milo, any ideas how to overcome a fear of cats?

Milo: Yes. Could get a dog?

William: Next.

[Milo walks away, while a brown cat steps up.]

Ellie: My name is Ellie!

Kate: Hi, Ellie! So, do you have any thought on the matter?

Ellie: Nobody should be afraid of cats. We're lovable, nice, sweet, adorable!

[Two other cats growl at each other while Camo watches them. Danny and Mela break up the tiff.]

Magic: Thanks, Ellie! Next!

[Camo steps up.]

Magic: Hang on, you're Camo. We were at school together, although you struggled a bit.

Camo: True, I may not be all that clever, but I have an answer!

Kate: Okay, so what would you say to Emily's mom so she wouldn't be afraid of you?

Camo: Nothing!

William: Nothing?

Camo: Nothing! Firstly because she would not understand me anyway, and because sometimes words are not enough!

[Kate looks back at what Emily told her.]

Emily: Sometimes, words are not enough.

[Kate exits the flashback.]

William: Next!

Kate: No, wait! Camo is the right kitten!

Camo: Yehay! I get a new friend!

[Camo climbs up the table and licks Kate on the cheek.]

Kate: Oh, calm down!

William: Well okay then. We better find a Magic Drop for the fountain!

Krakia: I've seen enough. I better report back to Eva!

[Krakia flies off. Again, Balloon notices her flying away.]

[In the castle kitchen, Danny is looking for a Magic Drop by his sense of smell.]

William: Are you sure, Danny?

Danny: [sniffing] I'm sure! [sniffs some more]

Kate: You can really sniff out Magic Drops for the fountain?

Danny: I just seem to recognize the smell!

Magic: And you smell a Magic Drop in the kitchen?

Danny: Yes! [sniffs]

Magic: Are you sure you're not just kinda hungry?

William: How would a Magic Drop find its way into the kitchen?

Mela: Oh, come on, William! Give him a chance, let him try.

William: Oh, alright then. Hmm…hmm? Where's Balloon got to, anyway?

Mela: Beats me. I haven't seen her in a while!

Danny: Found it!

[Everyone gasps as Danny finds a Magic Drop in a basket.]

Danny: [muffled] Ta-dah!

Kate: Wow, Danny, well done!

[Danny chuckles as Kate takes the droplet.]

Kate: Let's tell Camo we're getting everything ready for him.

[Back in the Pocketville square, Camo is walking towards the Fountain.]

Camo: Wonderful…I can't wait to show Emily's mum there'll be nothing to fear!

Eva: Hey, nice kitty!

Camo: [jumps] You startled me!

Eva: Take it easy. Calm yourself!

Camo: Eh? You're Eva! [groans] Ava's evil sister!

Eva: It's those who fear cats that you need to be afraid of.

Camo: You mean Emily's mother?

Eva: Exactly. Think about it: are you sure you want to join that family? What if she hurts you?

Camo: But she wouldn't!

Eva: She might. You could always spare yourself the trouble…and come and join up with us?

Camo: Why would I do that?

Eva: Well it's fun, for a start, isn't it?

Zull and Gort: Oh yeah, great fun. [stick tongues out]

Camo: I get it!

Eva: Well in that case, I'm afraid…you leave me no choice. Grab him now! [growls]

[Zull and Gort growl and chase Camo down the path. They suddenly look up to see the Winged Guards approaching from above. They get startled and run off.]

Eva: Ugh, the Winged Guards! Where did you come from?!

Balloon: I called them. [jumps off the back of a Winged Guard] I saw Krakia spying, Eva.

Eva: You'll pay for this, Balloon! I'll get you next time, just you see! [runs away]

Balloon: Save your breath, Eva! You'll need it to run away!

Camo: Thanks. You arrived just in time!

Balloon: Let's go to the fountain. Kate and Magic have everything ready for you.

[At the Magic Fountain, Kate drops the Magic Drop into the fountain, causing water to appear. Camo steps on the railing to get to the pedestal at the middle while Kate steps on the springboard.]

Kate: Let the Friendship Ceremony…begin!

[The half of the Friendship Heart floats over to the pedestal.]

Kate: Let the spirit of the Friendship Heart light the way to the Magic Fountain!

[Pets cheer. The Friendship Heart aligns itself, levitating Camo and causing his image to appear in the waters. Camo gets teleported to the Big City near Emily and her mother.]

Camo: [purrs and meows]

Emily: Mommy, a little kitten!

Emily's mother: Oh, careful!

Emily: He won't hurt us, mom!

Emily's mother: I know. Let's get indoors. [walks off with Emily]

Emily: I'm sorry, little kitty. Bye-bye.

[Camo finds a shrub full of flowers. He goes there to pick a yellow flower to present to Emily's mother.]

Camo: [meows]

Emily's mother: [gasps] What?

Emily: He brought you a flower, look!

[Camo meows and drops the flower. Emily's mother picks it up. Camo purrs.]

Emily: See, you don't have to be afraid, Mom.

Emily's mother: He is kind of cute.

[Back at the Magic Fountain, Kate, Magic, and the Royal Guards gaze at the image of Camo greeting Emily and her mother. The Friendship Heart floats back to Kate's bracelet.]

Kate: I knew that Camo would do it!

[A fragment of a picture of Ava shows up in the fountain.]

William: I'm sure Princess Ava would be very proud of you, Kate!

Magic: Yes she would!

Mela: Let's hope we get to tell her all about you soon, Kate.

[Meanwhile in the Big City, Ava is struggling to keep on her paws.]

Princess Ava: [coughs] I feel dizzy…I may have a fever…

[A bright light shines on Ava’s face, causing her to shield her eyes with her paw. Wallace appears in front of her, which makes her startled and jumps back.]

Wallace: Hey! I didn't mean to scare you!

Princess Ava: Stay away!

Wallace: You don't look very well!

Princess Ava: Go away!

Wallace: I could help you!

[Ava runs off into the alleyway.]

Wallace: Come back! I can help you! Stop! Oh…
