Frisbee/Transcript

[ theme song]

[Kate, her father Peter, and Magic are at the Big City park. Kate and Magic follow Peter, who is jogging across the sidewalk. Peter suddenly stops to catch his breath.]

Magic: [panting and barking]

Kate: I think we’ve tired Dad out.

Magic: [barks]

Kate: Are you okay, Dad?

Peter: Yes…I mean, no. I’m exhausted.

Kate: Shall we take a break?

Peter: No, you keep going. Magic wants to go on.

Magic: [jumping and barking]

Kate: Are you sure you don’t mind?

Peter: You go. I’m gonna lie down. [looks around] Uh…that looks like a good spot.

Kate: Enjoy your rest.

Peter: Thanks, sweetheart. [looks at Magic] And you keep a good eye on her now, Magic. Take care of her.

Magic: [barks]

Peter: Sometimes I think…your dog…understands just about anything I say.

Kate: He’s a clever dog.

[Peter walks away. Kate takes the collar off of Magic’s neck.]

Magic: Your dad is pretty smart.

Kate: [puts collar around her wrist as a bracelet] I hope so.

Magic: What’s up?

Kate: Well, he mustn’t find out about anything.

Magic: What? About you having a magic puppy and traveling to and from the Puppy Kingdom? He’d have to be super smart!

Kate: Yes, well, let’s be careful. Now, we should look for Princess Ava while he’s asleep.

[Kate and Magic look around the park.]

Magic: [peeks out of a bush] She’s not here.

Kate: [briefly jogs] Ava could be anywhere; this place is huge!

Magic: You can say that again.

Kate: You’re right. The city is enormous.

Magic: [jumps and catches a frisbee] Look out!

Kate: [gasps]

Magic: [grunts and places the frisbee down] Are you okay?

Kate: Wow, well done!

Magic: All dogs like playing with frisbees.

Kate: Obviously. Where did it come from?

Liam: Sorry! [walks closer] I’m Liam. That’s my frisbee.

Magic: Be careful where you throw it next time.

Kate: Magic…

Liam: Is your dog cross with me?

Kate: Not really.

Liam: He’s right. The frisbee could have hurt you. It’s not my fault. I threw it to Dad, but he didn’t catch it.

Kate: Your dad?

Liam: Mm-hmm. [points at his father, who is on the phone] We’re supposed to be playing. Except as usual, he’s talking on his phone. He’d rather do that than play with me.

Kate: You should tell him how you feel.

Liam: He’s not going to listen. He’s too busy to even talk to me.

Magic: You could try.

Kate: Yes, you could try.

Liam: It’s no use; he’s always busy.

Liam’s father: [on the phone] Okay, but listen: if your people and my people can arrange a meeting, we can…

Liam: Sometimes I just want to grab that phone.

Liam’s father: …things sorted out at least and get something down on paper and we can…

[Magic gives the frisbee back to Liam. Liam pets him.]

Kate: See, Magic isn’t angry with you!

Liam: Uh, I don’t need it anymore.

[Liam runs off. A Friendship Trail flies out and enters the Friendship Heart.]

Magic: Did you see that, Katie?

Kate: Liam needs a pet. Come on!

[Kate and Magic teleport to Pocketville. They end up in the Magic Fountain, which is completely filled with pillows.]

Kate: [chuckles] We made it!

Magic: And a very soft landing!

Kate: Thanks to these pillows.

William: Thought you might like them. Although it wasn’t my idea.

Magic: Whose was it? Balloon? Mela?

Balloon and Mela: [shaking head] Mm-mm.

Danny: [pleased grunt]

Kate: Danny, you’re full of surprises!

William: And…do you have any news for us, Kate?

Kate: About Ava? Sorry, we’ve been looking, but we haven’t found her yet.

Mela: You’re here for another Friendship Ceremony?

Kate: That’s right. [An image of Liam appears on the Friendship Heart.] We’re looking for a pet for this boy.

[Meanwhile, in the Ever Grey Swamp, Eva looks at an image of Otto on her half.]

Eva: So, here we go again. Kate is back with the other half of the jewel. That means another Friendship Ceremony. Zull, Gort, Krakia! Where are those fools?

[Zull, Gort, and Krakia fight with each other in the hideout. Eva enters, angered.]

Eva: What the…?! Stop that now! I can’t leave you alone for a minute!

Zull: [points at Gort] But it’s all Gort’s fault!

Gort: [points at Krakia] It was Krakia’s fault!

Krakia: No, it was Gort and Zull!

Eva: Who cares?! Look at this mess!

Zull: [steps back] We’ll…put it all back.

Gort: Good as new.

Krakia: It’ll only take a mo…

Eva: There’s no time! An image of a St. Bernard puppy has appeared on the jewel! That means you fly to Pocketville to find out what’s going on, while we take a trip to the mountains!

[In the Princess Suite, the Pocketpedia has activated and flips to a page with an image of a frisbee.]

Kate: The Pocketpedia!

Everyone: [gasp]

Danny: But…that’s not a puppy!

Balloon: Of course not, Danny.

Mela: That’s never happened before.

William: Seems like it’s trying to tell us something.

Kate: Yeah, but what? Hm…

Magic: Any ideas? Anything at all?

Kate: A frisbee? Hm… Wait, what did you say about frisbees?

Magic: Oh, me?

Kate: Um…you said all dogs like playing with them.

Danny: Yes! I do!

[Kate picks up a frisbee. She looks at the open window and steps closer to it.]

Magic: What are you doing?

Kate: Frisbees? You throw them!

[Kate throws the frisbee out of the window of the castle. The frisbee floats down to the Pocketville square, catching the attention of a poodle at the barber shop who then chases it. Eventually more dogs follow, such as a trio of Dalmatians originally playing with a yarn ball, and two bloodhounds growling at each other. The frisbee circles the wishing well, where more dogs then chase it as they bark. Kate and Magic watch.]

Kate: Maybe throwing it wasn’t such a good idea.

[Dogs whimper as Otto shows up with the frisbee in his mouth.]

Magic: Do you remember what Liam said to us?

[Kate nods. Then a flashback occurs.]

Liam: It’s no use; he’s always busy.

Liam’s father: ''…things we’ve got to work out. We’ve got to work out the fee…''

Liam: Sometimes I just want to grab that phone.

Liam’s father: …and the contract has got to be absolutely good…

Kate: See, Magic isn’t angry with you at all!

[Kate exits the flashback.]

Kate: Maybe we need to talk to that St. Bernard.

Magic: Let’s go and speak to him!

[Kate and Magic walk forward just as Otto walks to them with the frisbee in his mouth. He then places the frisbee down.]

Otto: Me? To be friends with a boy?

Kate: Yes! That is, if you want to, Otto.

Otto: Of course I do! It’s just that, um…

Magic: You have something better to do?

Otto: Uh, no. [shakes head] But I should return to the cottage to say goodbye to my friends!

Kate: Okay, we’ll come with you! Alright, Magic?

Magic: But let’s take the Royal Guards. We may need them just in case Eva and her gang try something.

[Krakia is on top of a building looking down at the duo. Eva and her lackeys walk across the snowy plateau.]

Zull: [shivers] It’s…really…cold!

Gort: Shh, don’t let Eva hear you.

Eva: Too late! I heard you!

Gort: It’s just that…

Eva: You’re whinging again. How did I end up with such fools?!

Krakia: [flies over and lands in front of Eva] I hope you’re not including me in that remark!

Eva: Krakia, I thought that you were…

Krakia: I was spying on the girl. I have been!

Eva: So what’s the news?!

Krakia: The girl and her dog are walking with a St. Bernard back to his cottage.

Eva: Perfect.

Krakia: Be careful. The Royal Guards are with them.

Eva: The more the merrier.

[Eva and her gang approach the cottage.]

Eva: We’ll give them all a warm welcome!

[Then, Kate and her friends walk across the plateau, following Otto to his cottage.]

Otto: Nearly there. The cottage is this way.

Danny: At last, I’m f-f-f-freezing!

Kate: It’s been a lovely walk, hasn’t it, Magic?

Magic: It sure has!

Kate: And we found a Magic Drop on the way.

William: We have Balloon to thank for that one.

Mela: As always!

Balloon: Oh enough with all the compliments. It was just luck.

[Krakia flies over them and then lands in front of Eva.]

Krakia: They’re here.

Eva: Excellent.

[Eva runs off to meet up with Zull and Gort, who made a giant snowball.]

Eva: Come on, now!

[Zull and Gort try to push the snowball down the slope. They grunt as they do so. Then, the sound of rumbling occurs and grabs the attention of Kate and her friends.]

Kate: [gasps] What’s that noise!

Otto: [points at an incoming snowball] Avalanche!

[A giant avalanche rolls down the slope.]

Otto: [pushes Kate out of the way] Go, go!

[Magic and the Royal Guards brace themselves and yell as the snow crashes over them, pushing them aside.]

Kate: What happened? Magic!

Eva: So we meet again!

Kate: [turns around and gasps]

Zull and Gort: [growl]

Eva: Your friends can’t help you now!

Kate: You! You caused the avalanche!

Eva: Stop wasting time and hand over the Friendship Heart! [growls and extends a paw]

Kate: Never! [tries to run off but is stopped by Zull and Gort, who growl at her]

Eva: You’ll do as I say!

Kate: [thinks for a moment, then looks at the frisbee in her hand.] ''What do I do? It worked before.'' [throws the frisbee] Zull, Gort, a frisbee! Fetch!

[Zull and Gort bark and chase the frisbee.]

Eva: Wait, come back, you fools!

Kate: [runs off] Help! Somebody! Otto needs help!

[The cottage door opens and a St. Bernard, named Hugo runs out.]

Eva: Foiled by a dumb frisbee!

[The Royal Guards come out of the snow as they are helped by Otto and Hugo.]

Kate: Magic, are you alright?

Magic: [gets snow off by Hugo] I’m fine. Lucky our friends came in the nick of time. [shakes off and chuckles]

Hugo: Yes. We came just as we heard your call, Kate.

William: Eva and her gang made a run for it!

Danny, Balloon, and Mela: [laughing]

Otto: Thanks, Hugo. You were really great back there.

[At the Magic Fountain, Otto’s Friendship Ceremony is about to begin. Otto is on the top of the pillar. Pets cheer, just as the Friendship Heart makes it to the pillar. An image of Otto briefly appears in the water of the Magic Fountain, and he is teleported to the Big City park.]

Liam’s father: [on the phone] Okay, that’s good, but look, we’re gonna have to get together next week. Uh, we could do Monday afternoon. I can’t do Tuesday…

Liam: [notices Otto] Hi little chap. Hello.

[Otto walks off.]

Liam’s father: …Wednesday’s a possibility. How’s that for you? Yeah, that’s right. Okay, well yes, we can talk again tomorrow.

[Otto barks and puts his front paws on Liam’s father’s leg to get his attention.]

Liam’s father: Okay. Hey, good boy! Good boy!

[Otto grabs the cellphone from his hand and drops it.]

Liam’s father: Hey!

[Otto jumps up and barks. Liam’s father chuckles.]

Liam’s father: I get it.

Liam: Yay, Dad, you finished!

Liam’s father: You want to play?

Liam: Yeah, but we need…hm….

Kate: [shows up with the frisbee in her hand] This?

Liam: [gasps] Hey, where did you come from?

Kate: It’s a long story, but I believe this is yours. [gives the frisbee to Liam]

Liam: Thanks.

[Kate walks off with Magic by her side.]

Magic: You were right. Otto was a perfect puppy for Liam. Did you see how he grabbed the phone from his father’s hands?

Kate: Speaking of fathers, let’s get back to mine before he notices that we’re gone.

Magic: Oh…before it rains!

Kate: [puts the collar back around Magic’s neck] I just hope Princess Ava has shelter somewhere.

[Later, during a thunderstorm, Ava is in an alleyway, weeping.]
