[applause]

(female narrator) Hello, everyone,

and welcome to another sunny day in capital town.

I wonder what the ABC Monsters are doing today.

Shall we find out?

Here comes T Monster and K Monster.

They are carrying a trunk.

A trunk is like a suitcase but much larger.

It looks very heavy, doesn’t it.

And here comes B Monster.

He’s also carrying something and it looks like a bag.

[cheerful music]

♪

Now S Monster and C Monster have arrived.

They’re both carrying suitcases.

I wonder who they all belong to.

Here’s Alice, Brian, and Cherry Berry.

Can you guess who’s with them?

It’s Granny Read.

She’s Queen Scribble’s mother and Alice’s granny.

Granny Read is staying at Capital Castle

while her home is being decorated.

Here comes G Monster.

What have you got there, G Monster?

What is the picture of, Granny?

It’s a photo of me

when I won the Capital Town golf tournament

many, many years ago.

This pictures is my favorite

so I brought it with me.

Wow.

I didn’t know you played golf, Granny.

I used to love golf.

I just haven’t played for a long time.

Come on, Granny.

We’d better get you inside.

Yes. We can get your things unpacked.

G Monster and I can hang up your favorite picture for you.

Um, why is the picture leaning against the tree?

And where did G Monster go?

She was here a minute ago.

Let’s assemble the ABC Monsters and see.

Leave that to me.

(narrator) So with a wave of Cherry Berry’s Jester Stick,

All the ABC Monsters line up in alphabetical order.

Let’s sing along to the ABC song.

[cheerful music]

(all) ♪ A, B, C, D, E, F, G

♪ H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P

♪ Q, R, S, T, U, V

♪ W, X, Y, and Z

♪

(narrator) Look carefully.

One of the ABC Monsters is missing.

Can you guess which one it is?

(Alice) E, F, H, I.

Hmm. This isn’t right.

An important letter is missing.

Oh, I know!

(narrator) That’s right.

The missing letter is G.

So G Monster is missing.

Where could she be?

Let’s check the ABC book and see what it says.

[playful music]

(Cherry Berry) The clue says:

The ABC book is pointing northwest.

Let’s see where it leads.

♪

(narrator) Alice, Brian, and Cherry Berry walked across town

towards the shops, when suddenly...

[mischievous music]

♪

Wow. Do you think that rabbit

was the pet the ABC book mentioned?

I’m not sure.

What do you think, Cherry Berry?

I don’t think so.

The ABC book said that the pet we’re looking for

lives underwater.

Rabbits don’t like underwater.

Let’s try further down the street.

Maybe we’ll find the answer there.

So Alice, Brian, and Cherry Berry

continued on their way.

Before long, they arrived at Garry Grant’s house.

Brian, Cherry Berry, look!

It’s Garry Grant.

Hello, Garry.

What are you doing?

I’ve been cleaning my fish bowl.

I’m now feeling the bowl with clean water for my gold fish.

Where is your goldfish?

Before she left, G Monster placed him

in the glass jug of water.

It’s somewhere in the garden.

G Monster?

We’re looking for her.

If you can find my goldfish, I’ll give you a clue

to track her down with.

Don’t worry, Garry, we’ll find your goldfish.

(narrator) Can you help Alice, Brian, and Cherry Berry

find Garry’s goldfish?

Look carefully around the garden.

Can you see it?

[playful music]

♪

That’s right.

The goldfish is on top of the bird bath.

You found it.

That’s him.

Thank you so much for finding my goldfish.

Goldfish. That’s it.

The answer to the first clue.

Goldfish.

Goldfish.

We’ve solved the first clue.

Here’s a second clue.

See if you can work this one out.

I hope this clue helps you find G Monster.

(narrator) And so Alice, Brian, and Cherry Berry

waved good-bye to Garry Grant and continued on their journey.

[playful music]

♪

Alice and her friends had looked everywhere

but couldn’t find Grace the Gorilla.

Where can she be?

We can’t solve the second clue until we find Grace.

Let’s sit on this bench and think of where she might be.

(narrator) And so they thought, and thought,

and thought some more, until...

Look, everyone.

Over there in the playground.

♪

Hello, Grace.

Why are you upside-down?

I’m trying to find the grape juice that G Monster gave me.

I just saw it when I was hanging upside-down

on these monkey bars.

I thought that if I was upside-down again,

I might be able to spot it.

Can you see your grape juice, Grace?

Hmm... No, Brian.

I can’t see it anywhere.

Oh, dear. I’m very disappointed.

Grape juice is my favorite drink.

It tastes delicious with a fresh banana,

Don’t worry, Grace.

We’ll find your grape juice for you.

Yes. Then maybe you can help us

find G Monster.

Oh, that’s a wonderful idea.

(narrator) Can you help Alice, Brian, and Cherry Berry

find Grace the Gorilla’s grape juice?

Look very carefully and see if you can see it.

[playful music]

That’s right. You found Grace’s grape juice.

Well done.

Thank you.

Mm-mmm.

Delicious.

Grape juice is my favorite.

Grape! That’s the answer to the second clue.

(Alice) And her favorite fruit drink is:

Grape.

Grape.

Well, here’s a clue that will lead you to her.

Thank you, Grace.

(narrator) So Alice, Brian, and Cherry Berry

waved good-bye to Grace the Gorilla

and set off to find G Monster.

The last clue gave Alice and her friends a clear idea

of where G Monster went to.

I haven’t visited the sports shop before.

Are you sure it’s down this lane, Brian?

Oh, yes, Alice. It’s not far now.

[playful music]

♪

(narrator) Can you see who I can see?

That’s right. It’s G Monster.

Fantastic! We found G Monster.

♪

Hello, G Monster.

What are you doing here?

I’ve come to the sports shop to learn about golf.

The shopkeeper gave me this fantastic bag of clubs to try.

I thought we could organize a game of golf

in Alphabet Garden for Granny Read.

That’s a brilliant idea.

I can’t wait to surprise her with a game of golf.

Golf, of course.

Remember what the last clue said?

Here favorite game is golf.

Golf.

We solved all the puzzles.

Met new friends.

And found G Monster.
