01x02 - Carrots!

[bunniefuu]

[Music]

Once Upon an orphanage my life was a

near tragic State

I longed to find a brighter place

somewhere full of love and grace I dream

of fields with a cool Ocean Breeze I

[Music]

pinched myself to make sure this home

was real

they said for a boy but then I was a

girl my dreaming had just let me down

again if I came as a queen this long

ebony hairs and maybe they feel I was

worth it for them I'm a good worker in

spite of My Talking I belong to belong

here for all of my life don't send me

away without

bouncy I see everything I touch

[Music]

I can imagine a world full of joy just

give me your hand and I'll teach you to

hope you'll find that I have something

worthwhile just let me stay here and

I'll love you forever I promise a life

full of smiles

hi you're Diana higher

you're torturing me em

skill doesn't come without work

[Music]

she can gloat she gets lessons at last

the irises are in bloom

the shame ugly weeds are choking them

just like the weed growing on your head

and

[Laughter]

very funny hey Ian look

don't give them the satisfaction

hey hey carrots

[Music]

you hateful boy how dare you

[Music]

foreign

[Music]

but miss King Gilbert called me carrots

[Music]

that's no excuse for such a petulant

attack you are to spend your lunch hour

weeding this garden and considering your

temper but miss King you don't really

mean I'm to pull out these lovely white

flowers They're nothing but ugly weeds

Queen Anne's Lace

otherwise known as wild Karen you watch

it Gilbert Blythe you won't unroot me so

easily

oh yeah

I've got a plan you just wait

Gilbert Blythe has hurt my feelings

excruciatingly Marilla

what has the boy done now wounded my

pride and force me to a terrible Act of

aggression it will all be back to normal

at school tomorrow

one thing will never change Marilla I'm

the only person in Avonlea with red hair

I'm tired of being different

red hair covered your head as well as

any other color it's nice and long which

makes it versatile

my dear brother I told you to watch

those strawberries at Sunday dinner I

tried to be careful

hmm

pass me that lemon will you

[Music]

how

why shirts getting they're better in a

pie if you ask me

what are you doing with those weeds in

your lunch pail they're not weeds

Marilla they're Queen Anne's Lace a

lovely name but they don't belong in

your lunch pail we don't want them

taking root at Green Gables off with

them fine the ugly elements that is the

weeds and I will be gone

oh

pretty wheat I thoroughly agree Matthew

in fact henceforth I shall call these

weeds wildflowers

or now they look even better

they almost rescue your hair you like

him you're on the right track with this

uh vegetation

wildflowers please call them what you

like but with a little Ingenuity you

could make something out of them posies

and people would like them enough to

trade them for something even more

valuable

what well how about a big juicy lemon

why that's utterly inspired

[Music]

I've tied them all up nicely

they'll sell like hotcakes

what beautiful Raven hair

is rendered speechless at the shocking

side of my red hair oh and you

my hair were probably what caught his

eye

ha still as I improved these wild

flowers with ribbon I will improve on

what Nature has given me how all will be

revealed Diana come on

posies nose gaze corsages and my

personal favorite what I call I call uh

hair bouquets yes hair bouquets evenly

is certainly filled with customers

desperate to purchase these beautiful

Wildflower arrangements and such a good

price

yes and all for one measly lemon

[Music]

[Laughter]

it worked oh and you're a genius

did you see that what a stranger is in

our midst

now is my chance to make a good first

impression you'll never even know I have

red hair hello to your lassies

invitation to the Highland Games coming

Han I love this book I am the author JM

Berry is from Scotland too really have

you ever met him oh no

but we can talk about it when you come

to the games could we have a dance

camera

[Music]

or

I might put the stone yeah

or or maybe something else maybe the

hammer toss

[Music]

I happen to be youth Champion I'll say

you are I'll teach you tomorrow morning

before dance practice why do they call

it a hammer toss if there's no hammer

uh huh don't be a dope they call it a

hammer toss because

well that's what it's called Gilbert if

you learn to throw hammers as well as

you throw insults you're sure to win a

prize see you tomorrow

how romantic a visitor from another

country I'm determined to make a good

impression tomorrow

seemed like you just fine already only

because he never saw my red hair no it's

because you love

get the red out not exactly

Diana my hopes are dashed lemon May

lighten strawberry stains but it's no

matte for my red hair and your hair is

fine as it is it's an oddity Diana I

simply can't be seeing it tomorrow's

dance lesson with red hair ow see it's

out to get me

oh and

[Music]

there

perfect

Yik you're going to get in trouble

this mop gives me lovely blonde locks

don't you think you'll certainly make an

impression

[Music]

nice toss

[Music]

oh

I'll never learn oh don't fret just

takes time you have big arms I don't

arms are nothing

it's all in the legs what you need is a

kilt

for good Mobility k*lled

me I give it a shot

I suppose it couldn't hurt

[Music]

keep the lifted leg in line with the

calf

very good this highland fling is hard

I'll say

you're doing great well done

it was originally danced after battles

to celebrate victories how dramatic

soldiers dropping their swords to dance

right there on the b*ttlefield uh not

quite anyway now we celebrate culture

what makes us different and special I

know all about being different you've

both learned so fast

if you come to rehearsal tonight you

could perform in tomorrow's finale

perform us why not oh how wonderful

marvelous now there's some fancy

footwork

you're wearing a wig to cover your red

hair

[Music]

I don't understand it Kilts red hair oh

what's so funny

another failure this calls for drastic

measures

now here's just what I need

he guaranteed that the dye would turn my

hair a beautiful brown just in time for

tonight's rehearsal it'll be hard to

imagine you with anything but red hair

you'll soon forget what I ever looked

like with red hair

um and brown or black anything will be

better than red anything

oh

[Music]

oh

can't believe it green hair

I'll never be able to hold my head up in

Heavenly let alone go to tomorrow's

dance rehearsal

oh as much as I cursed it I'd give

anything for my red hair now imagine if

I weren't homely and different

imagine if I were beautiful

but what makes us different is what

makes us beautiful dryad how did you get

here I was led by the plaintive sounds

of a crying girl well I I just want to

be like everyone else

you think so dryad do you think this die

disaster would have happened if I liked

my red hair hmm

all right then let me show you something

[Music]

the fairy Trio of practicing a new

composition today I

find it quite interesting that music is

divine is it hard you might say that

come on

but her hair it's worse than mine how

can she make such beautiful music and

have such ugly hair

thanks to one we get the other I don't

understand

[Music]

what gives the harp such magical sounds

really is Sublime

I think she admires your hair really oh

thank you uh are you are you sure

second member of the trio the gap goblin

is warming up how wonderful that he has

those teeth

they help him make such marvelous music

hmm

the nose nymph

need I say more they each have something

that really makes them special

wheat berries have always believed that

it's a good thing that we're all

different

that way they can make such harmonious

music just so long as the smash break

doesn't show

no oh

can we please make this Trio a quartet

poor fellow he's tired of playing in the

marching band

symbols or not that was a wonderful

concert

so do you still wish you were the same

as everybody I suppose it's all right to

be different

I'll say

till next time dryad

as for you and you'd better face the

music

that

[Music]

ought to do you you should set up a

business Marilla

Matthew Marilla I was wondering when

you'd show up

um

well now that's a hairdo to beat all

hairdos I've made a terrible mistake and

now my life is over or at least until my

hair can grow out again you could always

shave it

I'm just trying to help

right now I'd give anything to have my

red hair back that might be arranged

let's put you and your hair out of your

misery

fortunately it's only a rinse gone bad

easily cured by a quart of vinegar

that's a great relief so long as I don't

end up smelling like a pickle and why

not take this opportunity to seal your

lips and reflect on your actions in

silence you see Mighty quiet about your

own hair-raising story Marilla Matthew

that's of no consequence what happened

Marilla hated her own hair when she was

a girl really it was thick and curly and

I was very foolish I ironed it you

ironed your hair and a volunteer fire

department still talks about the smoke

oh shush you

these days all the girls want curly hair

who knows maybe someday it will be

fashionable to have green hair

what Notions you have Anne I doubt

fashion will change that much

there's my red hair I never thought I'd

be so glad to see it

[Music]

oh

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

let's try tossing the Sheaf

if you say so

it's your toes in

[Music]

whoa

if only I hadn't been such a fool and

missed yesterday's rehearsal then I

might stand a chance of being in the

performance you're doing great just keep

trying Diana I thank you for being such

a good friend during my

desperate episode your Alabaster skin

and Raven hair don't compare to the

beauty within you why

[Music]

yes it was rather poetical wasn't it

come on in higher higher

[Applause]

you can do this Gilbert

[Music]

you have two more tries now I can't do

it did you know say you used to tell us

hey into the Barn Loft sure then imagine

you're in the barn I'll try

you can do it into the loft

into the loft

you can do it

[Music]

boy I couldn't have done it better

myself

[Music]

oh rather a good old cake don't you

think of course they're not as good as

my family recipe love to chat Hattie but

the bagpipes are starting

Stuart I humbly apologize for my

Outburst yesterday and for missing the

rehearsal but I've practiced all day and

and her extension is almost perfect and

so I wonder if I might possibly dance

tonight well give us a little step

well if the bunny will ask Kenny fling

Hawkeye seems you'd better join us for a

spell oh thank you hurry oh this is

great and Diana I won the sheave toss

congratulations Gilbert that's one full

you deserve it you are right Stuart

strength isn't everything pitching hay

must have taught me a thing or two I

guess wearing a kilt paid off too looks

like it did too bad about you though

looks like you got your hair sun burned

Gilbert Blythe your teasing can't upset

me I now appreciate that my red hair is

a part of what makes me me I'll take my

cap off to that

why Stuart well yeah yeah that's red

every hair and I'm proud of it oh

speaking of showing off it's show time

[Music]

she's full of surprises that one

look at Ann up there she might not fit

in

but she sure knows how to stand out

[Music]

oh what a perfectly magical day

[Music]

you were quite a Marvel on that stage

and all that red hair everywhere who

would ever imagine

are those some of your infernal weeds

wildflowers please beauty is in the eye

of the beholder what a way with words

you have this Queen Anne's Lace makes me

feel special so long as you feel special

than everyone else will see you that way

don't you two get sentimental on me

Stuart told me Peter Pan's latest story

is in Kensington Gardens I bet it's

filled with wildflowers oh and I'm a

might all for this

Peter Pan never grew old why should you

Peter Pan believes in fairies

and so do I Marilla so do I weed wearing

Highland flinging green haired fairies

foreign
