CARL: Hello, Dylan!

ARUGULA/NICO: Hi, Dylan!

DYLAN: Hi, Carl! Hi, Nico! Hi, Arugula!

DYLAN: I was just exploring the neighborhood for the best

DYLAN: hill to scooter down!

CARL/ARUGULA/NICO: That way! / Over there!

DYLAN: Cool, thanks!

ARUGULA: Oh, I like your scooter, Dylan! Those beads on

ARUGULA: the spokes are so cool!

DYLAN: My grandpa just sent them for my birthday. He got

DYLAN: me these, and some socks, and a brand new board

DYLAN: game!

CARL: Oh! We were just going to my house for a board game

CARL: party. Do you want to come?

DYLAN: Board game party? Me? Yes! Can I bring my

DYLAN: new game? It's called Roll Roll Armadillo!

NICO/ARUGULA: Ooh!

ARUGULA: That sounds fun!

CARL: Oh. I've got a pretty big board game collection, and

CARL: I was planning to play Flapjack Match...

CARL: But I guess we can play your game first.

CARL: I've never played it before.

ARUGULA: It sounds like fun!

DYLAN: Great! I'll go home to get it and bring it right

DYLAN: over. But first - I gotta try that hill!

[♪]

DYLAN: Woo! Yeah!

[♪]

CARL: A little more...a little more...perfect!

[knock on door]

NICO: C'mon in!

NICO: Welcome to Board-Game-apalooza!

DYLAN: Thanks for inviting me!

DYLAN: I'm really, really excited to play this.

[♪]

NICO: [deep breath] It still has that new board game smell!

[♪]

CARL: This game is new to me. Are the rules easy to

CARL: understand?

DYLAN: Totally!

DYLAN: Okay, what color does everyone want?

CARL: I'd like orange, please. I'm always the orange piece

CARL: whenever I play a game.

NICO: Yellow me, please, and thank you!

ARUGULA: Hmm...may I please have the blue piece?

DYLAN: Of course!

DYLAN: And that leaves green for me!

DYLAN: Green is my favorite color.

DYLAN: Now let's start Roll Roll Armadi-!

[♪]

DYLAN:[slow motion sound effect] Oh nooooo!

[♪]

DYLAN: Phew!

[♪]

ALL: [gasp]

[♪]

DYLAN: I can't believe I did that! This is a brand new

DYLAN: board game!

DYLAN: And now there are only three pieces!

DYLAN: [angry grunt]

NICO: Bummer.

ARUGULA: Aww. It's okay, Dylan.

CARL: We can fix it! Somehow...

DYLAN: You think so?

ARUGULA: Yeah! Maybe we can use something else for a game

ARUGULA: piece.

DYLAN: [grumpy groan]

NICO: Or we can just play a different game!

CARL: Like Flapjack Match!

DYLAN: But - but I wanted to play this one!

CARL: Are you mad?

DYLAN: Yeah, I'm mad!

NICO: Happens to the best of us.

DYLAN: [grumpy groan, stamps foot]

NICO: Whoa, you really are upset.

CARL: Hey! Do you want to try something I do when I get

CARL: upset? I call it "Soup Breathing."

DYLAN: No!

DYLAN: Wait. "Soup Breathing?" What's that?

CARL: Here's how we do it. We take a deep breath in through

CARL: our noses, like we're smelling soup.

[♪]

CARL: Then you breathe out through your mouth, like

CARL: you're blowing your soup spoon to cool it.

CARL: [exhale]

CARL: I like to imagine that it's tomato soup.

DYLAN: Or soup with peas and noodles.

CARL/DYLAN: [deep breaths]

CARL: Yeah! Just picture it in your mind...star-shaped

CARL: noodles, and bright green peas...

DYLAN: Green peas?!

DYLAN: [anxious moan] My game piece was green, too! And now

DYLAN: it's gone forever!

DYLAN: Soup Breathing didn't work! I'm still mad!

CARL: My orange piece!

DYLAN: [slow motion sound effect] Not again!

[♪]

NICO: Oof!

[♪ Sad music ]

ARUGULA: Oh, no!

[♪]

NICO: Double "Oh, no!"

DYLAN: Grr!

DYLAN::[yelling]

ARUGULA: This is bad.

NICO: It's not great.

NICO: Hey, Dylan? I get it. I get mad a bunch. Wanna try

NICO: something I do sometimes?

DYLAN: Okay...

NICO: When I get mad, and my whole body feels "grr!", it

NICO: helps to tighten my body really tight and breathe in-

DYLAN: Okay...

NICO: But then, I breathe out and loosen my body really

NICO: slowly...Like this!

NICO: Grrrrr!

NICO & DYLAN:: [exhale]

NICO: I do that until I start to feel better!

NICO & DYLAN:: [exhale]

DYLAN: Grrr...

DYLAN: [exhale]

DYLAN: Grr...

DYLAN: [exhale]

DYLAN: Oh! Thanks. That actually is helping!

NICO: I've had some practice.

DYLAN: So...what should we do now?

CARL: Play Flapjack Match?

[♪]

CARL: Or...maybe we can still get the pieces out of the

CARL: vent.

DYLAN: You think so?

ARUGULA: Yeah!

NICO: We just need a plan.

DYLAN: I can think a little better now...Let's do this!

NICO: Step one: Assemble the team. Done.

NICO: Step two: We need to get through the slots in the vent.

CARL: The slots are pretty narrow, so the tongs from my

CARL: salad utensil collection won't work.

[♪]

ARUGULA: What if we use something sticky to pick them

ARUGULA: up?

DYLAN: Like...clay?

[♪]

NICO: Perfect! Step three: we gotta smoosh the clay onto the

NICO: end of some kind of pokey stick...

CARL: Oh! I know! We can use a paintbrush! I have a long one

CARL: in my painting kit!

NICO: Great idea, Carl!

NICO: Now, step four: Poke the pieces with the clay and

NICO: lift them out of the vent! Voilà!

DYLAN: "Voilà?"

NICO: It means "Ta-da!"

ARUGULA: Let's get started!

CARL: I'll get some clay from Mama.

ARUGULA: And I'll grab the paintbrush. I know where it

ARUGULA: is!

DYLAN: Wow! Thanks, everybody! Now let's do this.

CARL: Oh no...

♪ DYLAN: [slow motion sound effect] Not again again!

[♪]

DYLAN: My brand new board game! My grandpa just

DYLAN: gave it to me, and now it's ruined!

DYLAN: GAHHHH!

[♪ Dramatic Music ]

ARUGULA: Hey, do you want to try some-

DYLAN: No! I don't want ANY more of your suggestions!

DYLAN: They. DON'T. Work!

NICO: Don't you yell at her!

DYLAN: I'll yell if I want to!

DYLAN: AHHHHHHHH!

[♪]

DYLAN: The last piece! GONE!

DYLAN: GAAAAAAHHHH!

[♪]

ARUGULA: [quietly crying]

NICO: Stop it! You're scaring my sister!

ARUGULA:[crying] I know you're mad...

DYLAN: I'm not mad, I'm FURIOUS!

[♪]

ARUGULA: [tearful] But that's not an excuse to yell at us and

ARUGULA: hurt our feelings.

CARL: Um...Er...Maybe we should go outside and give you

CARL: space to calm down...

[♪]

DYLAN: [angry groans]

[♪]

NICO: That guy's having some BIG feelings.

[♪]

CARL'S MOM: Having a tough day, huh?

CARL'S MOM: Can you tell me what happened?

DYLAN: We were supposed to play my new game, but my game

DYLAN: piece fell into the vents. I was so upset about

DYLAN: it that I stomped my feet and yelled and threw

DYLAN: the board...so now all the pieces are in

DYLAN: the vents.

DYLAN: And then...everyone walked away. I don't blame

DYLAN: them. I wouldn't want to play with me either.

CARL'S MOM: Ooh. That sounds really rough. Was this game

CARL'S MOM: special?

DYLAN: Yeah! It was brand new. My grandpa just gave it to me.

DYLAN: And I really wanted to play it with everyone...I'm

DYLAN: still the new kid at school, and I really wanted

DYLAN: everyone to like me, so I thought we could have fun

DYLAN: together, but if I lost the pieces, then we couldn't

DYLAN: play, and then - and then...

DYLAN: [sad groan]

CARL'S MOM: Oh, I hear you.

CARL'S MOM: You know, sometimes when we get mad, it

CARL'S MOM: helps to just take a break and go move our body in

CARL'S MOM: a way that's fun for us - like taking a walk,

CARL'S MOM: or jumping or...

DYLAN: Or riding my scooter?

CARL'S MOM: Yes! See, that helps get the angry energy out

CARL'S MOM: and then we can think more clearly about

CARL'S MOM: why we're mad.

DYLAN: I just wanted to have fun with my new friends...but

DYLAN: now I ruined it.

CARL'S MOM: Well, I wouldn't be so sure about that. Let's go

CARL'S MOM: talk to them. I will be right here behind you.

[♪]

DYLAN: Thanks, Carl's Mom.

CARL'S MOM: Aww, you're welcome.

[♪]

CARL: And this one is called "Around the World."

NICO: Ooh, I haven't seen this trick yet!

[♪]

ARUGULA/NICO: Oh! / Beautiful!

DYLAN: Carl, Nico, Arugula. I want to apologize.

DYLAN: I shouldn't have gotten so angry.

NICO: It's okay to get angry. Everyone gets angry sometimes.

NICO: But it's not okay to yell at other people or make

NICO: them feel unsafe!

DYLAN: I know. I was excited to play, and then everything

DYLAN: went wrong. I know you were all just trying to help

DYLAN: me. I'm really sorry for yelling at you and

DYLAN: stomping around.

ARUGULA: Thanks for saying that, Dylan.

CARL: And we really do want to help!

CARL: Let's go back inside. We can still use my paintbrush

CARL: and clay to finish our plan!

DYLAN: You still want to play with me?

ARUGULA: Of course we do! Let's get to it!

[♪]

NICO: Careful...Careful!

ARUGULA: Almost got ‘em...

CARL: Aaaannnnnnd...Oops!

CARL: My paintbrush!

DYLAN: My game pieces! I'll never get them back now!

DYLAN: Ooh!

DYLAN: [big exhale]

DYLAN: Wait. I'm starting to get upset...I'm gonna go ride

DYLAN: my scooter and move my body!

CARL: Good idea. I think I'll come with you.

NICO: Let's all go together.

[♪]

DYLAN/NICO/ARUGULA/CARL: Whee!/Yay!

[♪]

DYLAN: I feel a LOT better now!

NICO: Totally.

DYLAN: Can we head back to your place? I'm sure we can

DYLAN: figure something out.

[♪]

DYLAN: Hey! I've got an idea! These beads are the same

DYLAN: colors as my game pieces!

NICO: So?

DYLAN: So, we can use them as the pieces to

DYLAN: play Roll Roll Armadillo!

ARUGULA: Oh! That's a great idea!

DYLAN: Thanks! When I'm calmer, I can think a lot

DYLAN: more clearly.

DYLAN: It's time to play... Roll Roll Armadillo!

[♪]

CARL: Phew.

FRIENDS: [laughing together]

ARUGULA: Okay, who's turn was it?

CARL: Oh, oh! My turn!

CARL: Yes! Your turn, Nico.

NICO: Yay! Yes!

CARL: Nice!

ARUGULA: Oh, oh - we did it! Yay!

DYLAN: Woo-hoo!

CARL'S MOM: Well, what do you know.

CARL: The FuzzyWorld Book Of Records

[♪]

CARL'S DAD: Out you go, Carl.

[♪]

CARL: Thanks, Dad!

[♪]

CARL: Mama!

CARL'S DAD: Carl, I've got your stuff! Oh hey, Maude!

CARL'S MAMA: Hello, Harold!

CARL: Oh.

CARL'S MAMA: Well, hello, upside down Carl!

CARL: Mama! Dad got me the most amazing book! It's called

CARL: the FuzzyWorld Book of Records!

CARL: It's filled with everyone who has set the

CARL: greatest records in the WHOLE. FUZZY. WORLD!

CARL'S MAMA: Oh yes! I know this book. They had it when I

CARL'S MAMA: was a kid, too. Oh boy, I loved it!

CARL: You see, Mama, every single year, anyone who wants

CARL: to, can try to set a Fuzzy World record.

CARL: There is someone who holds the record for having

CARL: the longest beard, which is EIGHT FEET AND THREE INCHES

CARL: LONG!

CARL: There is someone who did the most magic tricks

CARL: underwater! TWENTY!

CARL: There's even a KID who set the record for stacking

CARL: the most blocks on top of ONE block.

CARL: SIX HUNDRED AND TWENTY BLOCKS! It's amazing.

CARL'S MAMA: Mmm, so what I'm getting is, you really like

CARL'S MAMA: your new book!

CARL: No. I don't just like it. I am going to be IN

CARL: it.

CARL'S MAMA/CARL'S DAD: Ahh!/Oh!

CARL: Yes. I, Carl, am going to get into the FuzzyWorld

CARL: Book of Records. And be officially amazing.

CARL'S MAMA/CARL'S DAD: That's great!/ Can't wait!

CARL: I already have two of the three most important

CARL: things I need: determination and persistence.

CARL'S DAD: You do seem determined.

CARL: Yes. My mind is made up.

CARL'S MAMA: And the persistence part?

CARL: Yes. I am going to try and try until I accomplish it.

CARL: Because I'm persistent.

CARL'S DAD: So...what are you missing?

CARL: An idea. The only thing left to figure out is what

CARL: kind of record I should set.

CARL'S DAD: Hmm. Hey! Maybe you can set the record for

CARL'S DAD: having the most collections. You do have a lot

CARL'S DAD: of collections!

CARL: Dad, the record-holders in this book have collections

CARL: that make mine look teeny-tiny.

CARL'S DAD: Okay, well, how about setting the record for

CARL'S DAD: the most argyle sweater vests?

CARL: Hmm...

CARL: No, Dad. That record is held by Dr. Stephen Shore. He

CARL: has six hundred and thirteen vests and counting!

CARL'S MAMA: If you want to try and break the record for

CARL'S MAMA: the longest hug, I'm happy to help.

CARL: No thanks, Mama.

CARL: [gasp]

CARL: I've got it! My goal is to make a way bigger Pizza

CARL: Pyramid model than the current record holder, who

CARL: used cards to make it!

CARL: I will use all cards from my card collection to

CARL: make my Pizza Pyramid model! I will need some

CARL: witnesses, and some documentation, proving I did

CARL: it, but I'm going to get started...RIGHT NOW!

CARL'S MAMA: Go get ‘em, honey!

CARL'S DAD: We believe in you!

[♪]

CARL'S MAMA: Whoa, someone holds the record for the

CARL'S MAMA: fastest time pulling a school bus with

CARL'S MAMA: their TEETH?

CARL'S DAD: Whaaaat? Lemme see that!

[♪]

CARL: World Record...here I come!

[♪]

CARL: [tired sigh]

[♪]

CARL: Mama! Dad!

CARL'S MAMA: Coming, Carl!

CARL'S: We'll be right there!

[parents' footsteps]

CARL'S MAMA: We're here.

CARL'S DAD: Here we are.

CARL: [whispering] Can... you... guys... walk... more... softly?

[♪]

CARL: Phew.

CARL: Oh no!

CARL'S MAMA: Aww, what a bummer. I'm so sorry, hon.

CARL'S DAD: But it was amazing! And on your very

CARL'S DAD: first try, right?

CARL: That's right. It WAS my first try.

CARL'S DAD: And you still got your determination and

CARL'S DAD: persistence, right?

CARL: Yes. That's right.

CARL'S DAD: So you're gonna try again, right?

CARL: Right!

CARL'S MAMA: Amazing!

CARL: And not just that! I have learned a few things from

CARL: my last attempt.

[♪ Collecting Thoughts ]

CARL: Perhaps, the cards would be steadier, if I put down a

CARL: flat surface first, like cardboard.

CARL'S MAMA: Ah! We have lots of that.

CARL: And since the cards are sensitive to air-flow, I

CARL: should make sure the windows are closed, the fans

CARL: are off, and everyone should tip-toe.

[♪]

CARL: That will make for better building.

[♪]

CARL'S MAMA: Maybe I could set the camera up on a tripod, so

CARL'S MAMA: it records your whole build?

CARL: Yes!

CARL'S DAD: And maybe you could have a snack and refuel

CARL'S DAD: before you start building again?

CARL: Okay. It's a plan.

CARL: I am going to do this. I'm gonna build the biggest

CARL: Pizza Pyramid in cards! And I am going to get into

CARL: the FuzzyWorld Book of Records! Hmph.

[♪]

CARL: Okay, cards. Prepare to be balanced.

[♪]

SHELDON: [quietly]...Carl? Buddy?

SHELDON: Your parents said you are trying to set the

SHELDON: FuzzyWorld Record building with cards? That's so

SHELDON: cool!

CARL: Yes! I'm building the biggest model of Pizza Pyramid

CARL: in Fuzzytown History! Come in and see what I made!

[♪]

CARL: Ta-daaa!

[♪]

CARL: No!

[♪]

CARL: [whispering] It looks pretty good.

SHELDON: [whispering] It looks amazing!

CARL: But something is wrong.

[♪]

CARL: I know! I forgot to add the tiny tables outside.

[♪]

CARL: have to do it delicately...

SHELDON: Sooo delicately.

[♪]

CARL: Careful...

[♪]

CARL: Careful...!

[♪]

CARL: There! I did it!

[♪]

CARL/SHELDON: Oh no!

[♪]

CARL: [deep inhale]

CARL: GAAAAAAAAH!

[Carl's voice echoes through Fuzzytown, then FuzzyWorld]

[Alien spaceship sound]

CARL: [sniffs, then starts to cry]

CARL'S MAMA: Carl?

CARL'S DAD: We're coming up!

CARL'S DAD: Ohhh...

[♪]

CARL'S DAD: Oh, Carl, do you want to talk about it?

CARL: No.

CARL'S MAMA: You wanna try bouncing a little?

[♪]

CARL: I want to be in that book. But my cards keep

CARL: falling down. I will never be in the FuzzyWorld

CARL: Book of Records. Maybe I will set the record for being

CARL: the biggest failure.

CARL'S MAMA: Just because we fail at something, doesn't

CARL'S MAMA: mean WE are a failure. Sometimes failing

CARL'S MAMA: is...it's a part of learning. Do you remember

CARL'S MAMA: how many times I fell down before I could do a

CARL'S MAMA: headstand?

CARL'S MAMA: Every day I would try to balance upside down.

CARL'S MAMA: First, I couldn't get my legs up.

[♪]

CARL'S MAMA: Then, I couldn't get them to stay up.

CARL'S MAMA: [laughing to herself] I fell so many times.

♪

CARL'S MAMA: But I kept trying. Again and again,

CARL'S MAMA: getting a little stronger and staying up a

CARL'S MAMA: little longer every time.

[♪]

CARL: [still sad] And now you can do headstands.

CARL'S MAMA: That's right!

CARL'S MAMA: Even though I had to fail a lot to get there -

CARL'S MAMA: and I mean a lot-

CARL'S MAMA: I just had to persist, until I was strong

CARL'S MAMA: enough to reach my goal.

CARL'S DAD: Remember how many times we tried to bake bread

CARL'S DAD: before we got it right?

CARL: Yes. I will always remember the bread.

CARL'S DAD: At first we couldn't get the temperature

CARL'S DAD: right, and kept accidentally burning them...

CARL'S DAD: Then one time we used too much yeast and forgot

CARL'S DAD: to turn on the oven, and it expanded all over

CARL'S DAD: the place!

CARL'S DAD: And sometimes the braid didn't stay braided.

CARL'S DAD: But eventually, we got it just right.

CARL'S MAMA: And now, your bread is the best!

CARL: It is good now, Dad.

SHELDON: Oh, that reminds me of the time I kept trying to

SHELDON: whistle through my teeth! Remember that, Carl?

[♪]

[spitty sounds]

SHELDON: My mom tried to teach me how.

SHELDON'S MOM: [perfect whistle]

SHELDON: I tried...and tried...

[spitty sounds]

SHELDON: I practised...And practised...

SHELDON: [slowly improving]

SHELDON: And then one day...[perfect whistle]

SHELDON: I finally got it!

SHELDON: And now, I can whistle.

SHELDON: [strong whistle]

CARL: But I really want to be in the FuzzyWorld Book of

CARL: Records. I really want to be amazing.

CARL'S MAMA: Well you already are AMAZING! But I know this

CARL'S MAMA: goal is important to you.

CARL'S DAD: And I am AMAZED by your determination and

CARL'S DAD: persistence.

SHELDON: Don't give up, buddy. It's just a matter of time

SHELDON: until you're in this book.

CARL: You're right, Sheldon. Maybe I won't be in the

CARL: next Book of Records, but maybe I'll be in the one

CARL: after that, or the one after that!

[♪]

CARL: But I think the next time I do a card-build,

CARL: I should build on a concrete floor, with LOTS of

CARL: space.

[♪]

CARL: Like in a garage!

CARL: And maybe I should sketch the whole thing out

CARL: first, so I know exactly what it's going to look like

CARL: before I start.

[♪]

CARL: And maybe I could watch some tutorials with some

CARL: tricks and tips for card-builders.

[♪]

CARL: And ONE DAY, I will build the biggest Pizza

CARL: Pyramid out of playing cards!

CARL: And I will officially be in the FuzzyWorld Book of

CARL: Records!

CARL: Unless...

ALL TOGETHER: Unless?

CARL: Unless...I try to break the record for performing most

CARL: magic tricks underwater! I am also very good at magic

CARL: tricks!

ALL: [laughing together]
