NARRATOR: What are you doing today, Frog?

(croaks)

Oh, hi, Mr. Narrator.

I'm cleaning up my log

before my friends come over tonight.

We're going to watch a movie.

(croaks)

(humming)

Ah.

L-amp. Perfect.

Oh, Frog!

(gasps)

(croaks)

(giggles) Hi, Frog.

Whatcha doing?

(croaks)

Oh, Duck, it's you.

(croaks)

I'm cleaning up my log.

(gasps) Cleaning up?

Ooh, can I help? Can I, can I, can I? Hmm? Hmm?

I'm the best cleaner- upper in Word World.

(gasps, croaks)

Phew.

Quack, quack. Clean, clean, clean.

Okay, okay, okay!

Would you like to vacuum?

Ooh, you betcha!

Ilove to vacuum.

All right.

(croaks)

I'm going outside to wash the windows.

(croaks)

Let's get going, vacuum.

♪ I'll give Frog a treat

♪ And make his log all neat (vacuum whirring)

♪ I don't need a broom

♪ All I need is you

♪ Vacuum...

Ah! Quack, quack, quack, quack.

Oh! Hey!

Vacuum, where you going?

Put me down!

Stop going so fast.

Oh, no, the lamp!

Oh!

No!

(gasps): The letter "L."

(grunting)

(vacuum stops)

NARRATOR: Duck, you broke the letter "L,"

off Frog's lamp.

(gasps) Quack, quack.

Oh, what am I gonna do?

NARRATOR: Just tell Frog what happened.

He'll know what to do.

Oh, no. No, no, no, no, no.

He'll get mad.

NARRATOR: No, he won't, Duck.

You didn't do it on purpose.

It was an accident, and accidents happen.

(humming)

(croaking)

FROG: Oh, Duck.

Ah! Quack, quack, quack, quack.

(grunts)

(croaks)

Oh, hey, uh, Frog.

(croaks)

You're, uh, done washing the windows already?

(croaks)

I sure am.

Now, I just have to go and get some popcorn

for the movie tonight.

Oh, uh, that sounds good.

(croaks) I'll be back soon.

Okeydokey, Frog. Bye.

Oh, I need that "L" back to fix Frog's lamp.

(grunting)

Come out of there, "L."

I'm gonna give you to the count of three.

One, two, three!

Quack.

(frantic mumbling)

Stop it, "L."

Oh...

The "L"-- I gotta catch the "L."

Whoa, oh, oh!

Little dizzy here.

There's the "L."

What's going on, Duck?

Huh? Oh, uh,

I broke the letter "L" off Frog's lamp,

and now I have to fix it before he comes home.

The letter "L"?

I think I saw it fly over there.

(hums)

Hmm.

(buzzing)

Oh, I don't see the "L" up here, Duck, do you?

Oh, we need to look more closely.

Ooh, I know what to do.

We can use Frog's tele-thingy.

Hold on, Bug.

Quack, quack.

I got a bad feeling about this.

Ah, let's see if Frog's, uh, tele-thingy

can help me find the letter "L." Hmm.

It's called a telescope, Duck.

Are you sure you know how to use it?

(mumbling)

How hard can it be?

Um, hmm...

How do I turn this telescope on?

(gasps): Look, O-N.

"On."

Heh-heh.

That was easy.

Now, how do I get it to move?

Oh, let's try this lever.

(grunting)

Whoa! Ah!

Make it stop!

Come here, lever.

(grunting and muttering)

Get over here.

(grunting)

Gotcha!

Uh-oh.

NARRATOR: Duck, you broke another letter "L" off the "l-ever."

Oh! Gulp.

Whoa!

(yelling)

Quack, quack. Ah, quack, quack, quack!

Help! Duck!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Ooh, ow!

Whoa! (barking)

(screaming)

The telescope, make it stop!

(panting)

Oh, oh!

Dog, make it stop! Quack, quack.

(yelping)

(panting)

Oh!

My hero! Quack, quack.

Hey, hey, attaboy, Dog!

(barking)

Hey, what happened, Duck?

I broke the "L" off this lever by mistake.

Uh-oh.

Well, I guess we'll just tell Frog what happened.

He'll know what to do.

What? No! No, no, no, no.

He'll get mad.

Oh, no, he won't, Duck.

It was an accident. Accidents happen.

No, no, I'll just fix the lever,

and Frog will never have to know what happened.

But first, I've got

to get this telescope back inside.

(grunting)

Come on, telescope, get back in the log.

Ow.

Be careful, Duck.

Oh!

I said, back in Frog's log!

Quack-- ah! Quack, quack, quack, quack.

Hey, look, there's the missing letter "L" from "lamp."

(gasps) Uh, what's happening?

Quack, quack.

Ah, I can't look! (whining)

Oh, no.

BUG: Whoa, whoa!

Uh-oh.

(all shouting)

(barking)

DUCK: I found the letter "L" for the lamp.

(Frog croaking)

(croaking)

(humming)

(speaking gibberish)

(croaking)

(gasps)

My log!

(grunting)

(croaking)

Oh, uh, hey, Frog.

You ready to watch the movie?

Duck!

What happened to my log?!

Oh. That.

Well... (gulps)

NARRATOR: It's okay, Duck.

Tell Frog what happened.

Um... (quacks)

Well...

first I broke the "L" off your lamp.

As I was trying to fix it,

I broke off the "L" off the lever to your telescope.

So, then when I had to fix that,

then somehow I broke the "L" off your log.

And... that's when you... came home.

Then.

Oh.

Duck.

But I didn't mean to do it.

Any of it.

It was all a big accident.

Why didn't you just tell me

when you broke the lamp?

(sobbing): Because I thought

you'd be mad.

(crying and quacks)

Are you mad, Frog?

No, Duck.

I wouldn't be mad.

After all, accidents happen.

(crying): Oh!

I'm sorry, Frog.

It's okay, Duck.

It looks like all the letters are still here.

All we have to do is...

ALL: Build a word!

♪ It's time to build a word

♪ Let's build it, let's build it now! ♪

Luh-og.

KIDS: Log!

(Dog barking)

Now, that my log is fixed,

we can fix the...

luh-ever.

Yeah! (croaks)

And now we can fix this

luh-amp.

KIDS: Lamp!

Woo-hoo! Ooh!

Hey, Frog?

Yes, Duck.

Thanks for being such a good best buddy.

From now on, I promise to tell you

when something goes wrong.

Thanks, Duck.

Would you shut off the lamp

so we can watch the movie?

No problemo.

NARRATOR: Good job, Duck.

The end.

KIDS: Pig!

(giggles)

Hi, there.

The letter "C."

Kuh-ookie.

(grunts)

Hey, look, Pig.

You've got a fresh bag of letter Cs right here in your fridge.

Here you go. Catch!

(grunts)

(crash) Whoa!

This thing's heavy!

You want some help, Pig?

I have it.

I have it.

(grunts)

I don't have it.

Oh, no!

The letter Cs, they're getting away!

If we don't catch them,

we won't be able to finish the cookies!

(grunts)

(gasps): There's one!

I'll get it.

Come here, "C."

Whoa! Whoa!

(groans and screams)

Come here, "C."

I got it.

Whoa...

I don't got it.

ANT (gasps): The "C."

It's headed for Sheep's yard!

Come on, Ant.

Let's catch that "C."

NARRATOR: Pig and Ant chased the letter "C" over to Sheep's haystack,

where Sheep was pretending to be...

Racecar driver Sheep, here.

Okay, Dog,

are you ready to build our car?

(barks)

Okay, here goes!

Hmm.

All I need is a letter "C."

Oh. How about that-- a letter "C."

Kuh-arr.

(horn honks)

KIDS: Car!

Hop in, Dog!

(barks happily)

Ready, Dog?

Let's go drive our car.

(tires screeching)

ANT: Oh! Oh! The "C."

It's getting away!

Oh, no!

We can't finish making the cookies

without the letter" C." Oh!

(gasps)

Look! A letter "C."

Come on, Ant!

Let's catch that "C."

NARRATOR: Pig and Ant took off after another letter "C."

Those Cs were all over the place.

(Pig and Ant panting)

Ooh! Hmm.

Where did that letter "C" go?

BOTH: Hmm.

(Ant gasps)

There it is in that tree!

Oh.

(laughs) I'll get it.

ANT: No.

I'll get it. Oh! Oh!

Whoa! Whoa!

(sighs) Oh.

(mutters)

Oh. Whoa. Whoa.

Oh. Ow! Oh!

(grunting gibberish)

Oh, no!

We need that letter "C" to finish our cookies.

Hold on, Ant!

I'll catch that "C."

FROG: Okay, Robot, that should do it.

Your a*t*matic ice cream scooper is ready to go.

(croaks)

Oh, joy!

We can eat ice-cream cones.

I scream, you scream.

We all scream for ice cream.

(laughs)

But first,

I have to make the cones.

C... O... N... E.

Kuh-own.

KIDS: Cone!

Ready, Robot?

When I say, "ice cream,"

start the scooper.

Okay, Frog.

Ice cream!

Ice cream.

(whirring)

(croak)

My a*t*matic ice cream scooper works!

Okay, Robot, one ice-cream cone for you, and...

(Ant mumbling)

Look out!

Whoa!

Oh!

KIDS: Cone!

Hey, another ice-cream cone.

(whirring)

Ice cream!

(whirring)

(croaks)

Hey, Frog,

did you see a letter "C" come through here?

(slurping)

Yeah. I used it to make an ice-cream cone.

It was sw... eet!

Sw... eet?

That's my line.

Pig, over here!

Oh, there you are, good buddy.

Do you see what I see?

PIG (gasps): Another letter "C."

If we catch it, we can still make our cookies.

Come on, Ant, let's...

catch that "C." Catch that "C."

ANT: I'll get it.

PIG: Ooh, we're going to get it this time.

No, I'll get it. I'll get it.

All right, get ready, everybody.

I'm gonna do something really amazing.

Something I've never done before.

Oh, what is it? What is it?

Tell us!

I'm gonna have... an idea.

(gasping) ALL: Wow!

Yeah. I just have to put on my thinking cap,

and use it to think up a great big idea.

(sighs)

Hey, what's the matter with my cap?

(quacks)

Duck, that's not a cap.

It's just an "ap."

Our friend Bug is right, Duck.

You're missing the letter "C"

to make it a cap.

The letter "C"?

Where am I gonna find a letter "C"?

(sighs)

(panting)

Almost... got you.

Oh.

PIG: Incoming!

Hey, that's my line.

Geronimo! Uh-oh.

KIDS: Cap!

Well, what do you know?

Quack, quack.

My thinking cap.

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa.

Whoa. Whoa!

Quack! Oh.

No! Oh!

(crying)

What's the matter, Ant?

Pig and I were trying to make cookies,

but we dropped the letter Cs,

and we've been chasing them all day.

But everyone needs a letter "C," and I...

(mutters and cries) What's the use?

(sobbing)

Huh?

Oh, it's okay, little buddy.

I guess we're just not going to catch that "C" today.

Let's go home.

(crying)

Okay.

Good-bye, everyone.

Oh, poor Ant!

And usually, he is so strong.

We've got to do something to help them.

(cap bleeping) Oh! Oh! Quack, quack!

Oh, oh, hold one just one minute.

I'm getting an idea.

Oh, and it's a great big idea, too.

Why don't we find a letter "C"

for Pig and Ant, huh?

Duck, my friend, you are genius!

And that is quite the snappy cappy, I might add.

But where are we gonna find a letter "C"?

Oh!

I just so happen to have a whole chest

of the letter "C" right here.

You know crab starts with the letter "C."

It's a handsome letter, no?

NARRATOR: Pig and Ant returned to the barn without their letter Cs,

and without the letter Cs, they couldn't make any cookies.
