CARL: The Tool Collection

CARL: I'm so glad you could come over for my special

CARL: my birthday dinner tonight Sheldon!

SHELDON: I can't wait for your special birthday dinner, Carl!

SHELDON: And ...I can't wait to give you your present!

SHELDON: I really can't wait! I'll give you three hints what

SHELDON: it is. One, it's something you've really been

SHELDON: wanting for your tool collection.

CARL: Ooooh.

SHELDON: Two, it's something that helps hold things

SHELDON: together.

CARL: Uh-huh...

SHELDON: Three, it's something that can screw in all kinds of

SHELDON: screws.

CARL: Is it...a universal screwdriver?!

SHELDON: It is!

[♪]

CARL: Whoa! Thank you, Sheldon! How did you know this

CARL: was what I wanted most of all?

SHELDON: Well...

[♪]

CARL: What I really want is a universal screwdriver.

CARL: What I really want is a universal screwdriver.

CARL: What I really want is a universal screwdriver.

[♪]

SHELDON: You may have mentioned it a few times.

CARL: It's called a univel screwdriver, because it can

CARL: work on ANY type of screw.

CARL: Now, whether it would

CARL: work on screws across the universe is highly

CARL: unlikely. However, it should work on all Earth

CARL: screws.

CARL: Definitely all fifteen of THESE!

SHELDON: Whoa!

MAUDE: Oh wow! Carl, is that a brand new -

CARL: [interrupting] Universal screwdriver? It is, Mama!

CARL: Sheldon gave it to me for my birthday!

MAUDE: Well, that was very kind of you, Sheldon. And it's

MAUDE: going to go really well with the present I'm giving

MAUDE: Carl tonight!

CARL: Ohhh...Do we HAVE to wait?

MAUDE: [chuckle] Just a little while longer. Your dad's coming

MAUDE: over to make his famous spaghetti and vegan meatballs,

MAUDE: you know.

CARL: Yum!

MAUDE: And... your birthday cupcakes!

SHELDON: Aww, yeah!

MAUDE: Plus, I still have to hang up this piñata and finish

MAUDE: decorating.

CARL: We can wait, Mama. Besides, now we have a

CARL: universal screwdriver to go build with!

MAUDE: Yeah, well, tools are not toys, so please don't start

MAUDE: building anything without a grown-up there?

CARL/SHELDON: Okaaaaaaay.

HAROLD: Hello, hello!

HAROLD: I'm looking for a birthday boy!

CARL: It's Dad!

MAUDE: Well hello, Harold!

HAROLD: Well, thank ya kindly, Maude!

CARL: Dad!

HAROLD: Happy Birthday, Carl!

HAROLD: Hello, hello, Sheldon!

SHELDON: Hello, hello, Mr. Carl's Dad!

HAROLD: Ahem - that's Chef Dad. Because I have come

HAROLD: to prepare a very special birthday dinner, for a

HAROLD: very special birthday boy!

CARL: That's me!

HAROLD: And for everyone who loves him.

MAUDE: Okay, kids! Clear the kitchen, so Dad can get started

MAUDE: on dinner, m-kay? We'll call you when it's ready.

CARL: Okey dokey! See you later, alligator!

HAROLD: See ya soon, birthday raccoon!

SHELDON: Whoa. This is an AMAZING tool collection, Carl!

CARL: I'll tell you what's amazing! Here we have a

CARL: universal screwdriver, the ultimate tool for screwing

CARL: and unscrewing screws, and there isn't one screw in

CARL: my toolbox! It's a collection catastrophe!

SHELDON: Well, we can't solve it now. Your mom said we

SHELDON: shouldn't build anything.

CARL: She did say that, but she didn't say anything about

CARL: collecting screws.

SHELDON: Uh, what did ya have in mind, buddy?

CARL: Hmm...

[♪]

CARL: If we borrowed just one screw from fifteen different

CARL: objects, we would have all fifteen screws on the

CARL: grid, and a complete screw collection!

SHELDON: Uh...I don't know, Carl. Don't things need their

SHELDON: screws to stay... screwed together?

CARL: Well, we'll make some rules to make sure things stay

CARL: together and don't fall apart.

SHELDON: Ohhhh...kaaaay.

CARL: First, we will be very careful to make sure no one

CARL: accidentally gets hurt. Including us.

SHELDON: Yes. Safety all the way. Check.

CARL: Second, we can't take any screws from anything

CARL: electrical. That is not safe.

SHELDON: Nothing that plugs in. Got it.

CARL: And third, we will make sure to only take one screw

CARL: from each object. How much difference could one

CARL: screw make?

SHELDON: I mean, right?

CARL: Let Mission Collect All the Screws commence!

[♪]

CARL: Okay.

CARL: We have collected five screws from my room, and that

CARL: leaves ten left to get!

SHELDON: Mission Collect All the Screws is on its way!

CARL: The problem is, I can't find these screws anywhere in

CARL: my room. We have to look in other parts of the house.

SHELDON: Uhhh, I don't know, Carl. Are you sure it's okay

SHELDON: we're doing this? Maybe we should ask your mom.

CARL: I see no need to ask Mama, We're not

CARL: building anything, just collecting. And what's more

CARL: important than a collecting mission? Nothing!

CARL: Let's go!

[♪]

HAROLD: Well, hello, hello there!

HAROLD: Is...everything okay in there? Things look a little...

HAROLD: ...uh, off. You know, like...crooked?

CARL: Things look okay to me!

SHELDON: Uhhhhhh...

CARL: Okay, bye, Chef Dad! C'mon, Sheldon!

CARL: Mission Collect All the Screws continues!

[♪]

HAROLD: Huh. Note to self...it may be time for new glasses.

HAROLD: Wait a minute! I don't even wear glasses?!

[♪]

CARL: Look Sheldon, I found a truss head screw!

SHELDON: I found a dome head! Where did you find that cool

SHELDON: Phillips head?

CARL: In the kitchen!

SHELDON: In the kitchen? But isn't your dad cooking in

SHELDON: there?

CARL: He is! But it's just a few screws from a few

CARL: different objects. No one will ever notice!

HAROLD: Aah! Oof! Oh! Ack! Gah!

HAROLD: G-gotcha! Phew.

[♪]

HAROLD: Ohhhkaaay...?

[♪]

[♪]

HAROLD: Carl? Have you boys been in the kitchen?

CARL: Ummm. Not that I can recall.

SHELDON: Uhhh...

HAROLD: Good. Note to self, things are wonk-a-doo in here

HAROLD: today.

CARL: Sheldon, we are SO close to completing Mission Collect

CARL: All the Screws!

SHELDON: Looks like all we need is the hex screw. But I

SHELDON: haven't seen one anywhere , and we've looked

SHELDON: everywhere!

CARL: Everywhere, except the kitchen sink!

SHELDON: Uh, Carl? I'm not sure it's a good idea to go

SHELDON: back in the kitchen again.

CARL: Sheldon! We are on the verge of collecting all

CARL: fifteen screws for the universal screwdriver. We

CARL: MUST do this! For tool collections and tool

CARL: collection-lovers everywhere!

CARL: Aha!

CARL: I knew the hex screw would be here!

SHELDON: I don't know about this one, Carl...It seems like

SHELDON: the faucet might need all its screws!

CARL: I think we might need it MORE to complete the

CARL: collection!

SHELDON: But what if it makes the water spray everywhere?

SHELDON: This could be very...wet.

CARL: So close...so close...

HAROLD: Who's ready for birthday dinner?

MAUDE: [Mom radar going off] Carl?

CARL: Ummm...

MAUDE: What are you doing with the universal screwdriver in

MAUDE: the sink?

CARL: Ummm. Washing it off!

SHELDON: Uhhhhhhh...

MAUDE: And just what is that yu have in your hand?

[♪]

CARL: [whispering] Sheldon, why are you elbowing me?

MAUDE: [suspicious] Carl? Sheldon?

SHELDON: [anxious] Uhhh...

SHELDON: [more anxious] Uhhh...!

SHELDON: [panicky] Uhhh!

SHELDON: Please excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom

SHELDON: right this minute!

MAUDE: Carl, are you telling me the truth?

[♪]

CARL: Umm, some of it?

MAUDE: You know what, Carl? Today's your birthday, right?

MAUDE: So, you're one year older, and one year wiser. And

MAUDE: part of being older and wiser is taking more

MAUDE: responsibility for the things you do.

CARL: Oh.

MAUDE: Now, is there something you want to tell me? Something

MAUDE: else maybe?

[♪]

CARL: I do, Mama. I know you said not to build without a

CARL: grown-up. And technically, we didn't. But

CARL: all day long, we've been collecting screws for the

CARL: universal screwdriver, because I didn't have any.

MAUDE: I see.

CARL: I thought if I took one screw here and one screw

CARL: there, no one would notice. But I guess ONE screw

CARL: can make a BIG difference.

HAROLD: Ohhh! So that's why everything's so wonk-a-doodle

HAROLD: today! I was thinking it was just me.

CARL: I was so focused on the mission, I didn't notice things

CARL: were falling apart. I'm sorry I didn't tell you the

CARL: truth right away.

MAUDE: But you did choose to tell me the truth now, Carl.

MAUDE: And I am proud of you for making that choice.

HAROLD: So am I. And relieved! I thought I needed glasses!

HAROLD: Phew!

CARL: I'll put this screw back right now.

[♪]

MAUDE: Um, why don't we go put each and every screw back

MAUDE: where it belongs, right now, so we can all be on solid

MAUDE: ground?

HAROLD: Now that is a great idea.

SHELDON: Umm, hi? I really wanna help, but I'm stuck in

SHELDON: the bathroom! The doorknob fell out!

CARL: We're coming, Sheldon! Mission Put Every Screw Back

CARL: is now in effect!

[♪]

SHELDON: Thanks, buddy! Let's go get those screws all back in

SHELDON: place.

[♪]

[♪]

[♪]

CARL: Thank you for making my favorite birthday dinner, Chef

CARL: Dad.

SHELDON: And such a yumster- looking dessert, Carl's Chef

SHELDON: Dad.

HAROLD: Oh, you're most welcome.

MAUDE: Alright, Carl, it's time to blow out your candle

MAUDE: and make a wish!

CARL: I know what I'm wishing for.

MAUDE: Oh, and one more thing!

CARL: For me?

MAUDE: Well, like I said, it goes pretty well with

MAUDE: Sheldon's gift.

SHELDON: No way!

CARL: A set of screws to go with my universal screwdriver!

CARL: This is exactly what I wanted! How did you know?

MAUDE: Well, you may have mentioned it...a few times.

EVERYONE: [laughing together happily]

CARL: The Stick Collection

[♪]

SHELDON: [playing with toy car sound effects]

CARL: My collections are arranged in order of when I

CARL: started them.

CARL: In the upper left - the collections I started when I

CARL: was three.

CARL: Followed by the ones I started when I was four, then

CARL: five, all the way to my newest collections.

SHELDON: [playing with toy car sound effects]

CARL: But I have been thinking about re-ordering my

CARL: collections according to the alphabet. Collections

CARL: starting with letter A up here...

CARL: All the way to collections starting with Z,

CARL: at the bottom.

SHELDON: [car braking to a halt sound effect]

SHELDON: What are those white things?

CARL: That is my soap collection, remember? Slivers

CARL: of leftover soap that smell too good to throw away?

CARL: That one was in my dad's bathroom, and then that one -—

SHELDON: Oh yeah, I forgot about that collection!

SHELDON: [car toy sound effects]

CARL: It used to be my favorite, but -—

CARL: meh - not anymore.

SHELDON: [car toy sound effects]

MAMA: Hey, hear that?

MAMA: The birds are singing! And that means the rainstorm is

MAMA: over! Coast is clear to go out and play!

SHELDON: Finally! We've been stuck inside forever!

CARL: It has only been minutes, Sheldon.

SHELDON: I just meant like it felt like a really, really,

SHELDON: really long time.

CARL: Ah! Understood.

SHELDON: We're back, Fuzzytown!

CARL: Mmmm, the metal-y cloudy smell of rain!

SHELDON: Look! The storm blew sticks and leaves all over the

SHELDON: place!

CARL: It is pretty messy.

SHELDON: There are so many of them, you should start a stick

SHELDON: collection, Carl!

CARL: True, I don't have a stick collection.

SHELDON: I'll help you start one!

SHELDON: Here, stick-y stick-y stick-y!

CARL: This one is pretty nice!

SHELDON: Whoa! Carl, check it out!

CARL: [gasp]

CARL: Why is there a hole here?

CARL: What is even in that hole?

[♪]

CARL: I don't like this.

CARL: Not at all!

[♪]

SHELDON: Carl?

SHELDON: Carl? It's okay buddy. It's not that deep or

SHELDON: anything.

SHELDON: See?

CARL: A hole does NOT belong here! The walkway needs to go

CARL: back to how it was!

[♪]

NICO: Wasn't the rainstorm awesome?

SHELDON: Yeah, it left a slight hole.

CARL: It is not a SLIGHT hole! And it needs to go back the

CARL: way it was.

NICO: We had one of those in front of our house when we

NICO: were little, remember Arugula? I was scared it would

NICO: eat the house. Can you believe anyone would be so

NICO: upset over a little hole?

CARL: [very worried] Ohhh.

CARL: Ohhhh...ohh...

ARUGULA: Yes, I can. It's kind of weird when all of a sudden

ARUGULA: a hole opens up in the ground, Nico!

CARL: More holes could open up, at any time!

CARL: Another hole could open up right here!

CARL: Or another one over there!

CARL: Or there!

SHELDON: It can probably be fixed, Carl.

CARL: [hyperventilating]

MAMA: Hey buddy.

MAMA: What's going on?

SHELDON: There's a hole, Mrs. Carl's Mom. Here!

CARL: [hyperventilating]

MAMA: Huh, I'll be!

CARL: It needs to go back the way it was, right now!

MAMA: Hmm. A hole certainly doesn't belong in a walkway.

MAMA: Someone could trip over it, for one thing.

SHELDON: Can it maybe be fixed, Ms. Carl's Mom?

MAMA: Well, Carl, I've never fixed a walkway before, but

MAMA: we're a couple of smart cookies, I bet we can figure

MAMA: it out!

CARL: Cookies are NOT smart!

MAMA: [chuckle] Okay, well that's just a figure of speech.

MAMA: See, cookies may not actually be smart, but we are,

MAMA: my love! Do you want to come inside and we'll

MAMA: do some research?

CARL: If we can research how to get it back the way it was,

CARL: yes.

SHELDON: I wonder if it's ok if we play with it.

ARUGULA: It's like a little lake!

[♪]

SHELDON: Woo-hoo!

[♪]

FORREST: Woo!

[♪]

NICO/ARUGULA: Whee!/Woohoo! [gig

[♪]

DIY VLOGGER: So you have a hole that needs filling? No problem.

DIY VLOGGER: The first thing you need to do is remove all

DIY VLOGGER: the loose chunks of broken concrete, like so.

MAMA: Hey Carl, maybe you can use those broken pieces to

MAMA: start a concrete collection.

[♪]

DIY VLOGGER: Okay, now time to mix the concrete. You'll need a

DIY VLOGGER: sturdy bucket.

DIY VLOGGER: Pour the concrete in...and stir rapidly while

DIY VLOGGER: adding water.

CARL: I got this!

[♪]

CARL: Let's start mixing, Mama!

MAMA: You got it, Carl!

[♪]

NICO: It looks just like Stickville!

FUZZY FRIENDS: Woohoo!/Yay!

[♪]

CARL: Nobody panic! We watched how-to videos on fixing holes

CARL: in walkways, and we have a plan!

CARL: What happened to...the hole?

SHELDON: The hole? You mean... Stickville?

NICO: Home of the Stickville Bridge and Picnic Area?

ARUGULA: And the world famous acorn boat rides?!

CARL: That's not part of the plan.

CARL: The plan was to fill the hole and get it back to how it

CARL: was.

SHELDON: I know buddy, but look! We even have fishing

SHELDON: poles! What do you think, Carl?

CARL: I think...

SHELDON: [laughing]

NICO: [laughing]

[♪]

[♪]

CARL: I think Stickville can use a dock for the acorn boats!

CARL: And...and an ice cream stand!

SHELDON: I like that!

NICO: Totally!

LOTTA: I could add that into my drawing!

CARL: Nice drawing! It looks just like Stickville!

MAMA: [gasp] How wonderful! Look! The stick bridge

MAMA: and the stick picnic area!

MAMA: [impressed scoff] you're all so creative!

MAMA: But...that doesn't change the fact that we still have to

MAMA: fill the hole and fix the walkway.

ARUGULA: You can't!

SHELDON: We love Stickville!

LOTTA: You can't do that now!

CARL: I didn't like the hole before. But now I do. And I

CARL: want it to be Stickville forever!

SHELDON: Stickville forever!

CARL: I don't understand! How can I feel one way about

CARL: something one moment, and then totally different

CARL: about it a moment later?

MAMA: You know, feelings can be a little like the weather.

MAMA: One minute stormy, and the next...

CARL: The sun is out?

MAMA: Yup!

CARL: Well , since I changed my mind...maybe we don't have to

CARL: fill the hole after all!

MAMA: I'm afraid we need our walkway for walking, sweetie.

MAMA: It's just not safe for all this to stay here.

CARL: Now I feel a whole different feeling, and that

CARL: feeling is sad!

FUZZY FRIENDS: Me too!/Aww! /Do you have to?

SHELDON: I don't want it to go away either.

MAMA: I get it. The thought of saying goodbye to Stickville

MAMA: is sad because it's making you so happy right now!

SHELDON: Woo, splash!

MAMA: Mm-kay, how '‘bout this? What if we play with

MAMA: Stickville all day today and soak up the joy! And then

MAMA: we'll save our glum goodbyes for tomorrow. Sound

MAMA: okay?

FUZZY FRIENDS: Yay!/Woohoo!

FUZZY FRIENDS: [laughing and playing]

CARL: I like that!

ARUGULA: Totally!

ARUGULA: Love it!

SHELDON: Yeah!

MAMA: There we go. Last little bit. Alright, does that look

MAMA: flat to you, Carl?

CARL: Actually, it looks perfect!

FORREST: TOO perfect!

ARUGULA: Forrest, no!

MAMA: [laughing] Great idea! Something to

MAMA: remember Stickville!

MAMA: I love it! So...who's next?

[♪]

LOTTA: [giggle]

CARL: [uncomfortable] Ahh.

[♪]

CARL: I think that'll make me feel happy every time

CARL: I see it!

MAMA: [chuckle] Me too, kiddo!

SHELDON: Walkway forever!

FORREST: Let's do a parade for the new walkway!

[♪]

FORREST: [singing] Dummm dum dum dum dum!

MAMA: [laughing]

FUZZY FRIENDS: [laughing and playing happily]
