ZOE: I'm psyched

BABY BEAR: 2 More Days til' Christmas

LITTLE BIRD: This TV Special is better than Christmas Eve oN Sesame Street

Peter: Yeah, and we got ginger cookies, hot cocoa, and soup!

BABY BEAR: Good Idea

 

[The Count]

*Arrives home just in time for the special.
Did I miss any of it?
Count: No, there's still a few minuts before it starts.
UD: You've been fretting over that today, haven't you?
*Plops down with remote in hand. Why, is it that obvious?

 

[Beakerfan]

Alex: Sweetums, how are the boxes coming?

Sweetums: *putting presents in boxes* Great! I'm almost done!

Alex: Oh good! Bean, how are you doing over there?

Bean: *wrapping the boxes* Not so good.... this is a big box! WHOAAA! *falls over as he tries to lift the box*

Alex: Well you... just keep workin at it Bean.

Elmo: Elmo is doing a wonderful job! Yeah... Elmo thinks putting bows on the presents is fun!

Alex: That's great Elmo! *grabs the box of cards from under her bed*

*the box begins to hum*

Alex: *lifts the lid slightly* Shush!

*the box goes silent*

Alex: *removes a card from the box and begins to write in it*

Christmas Card: Heehee! That tickles!

Alex: Oh be quiet. That's not what you're supposed to say.

Card: I know, I know. "Merry Christmas" and all that jazz....

Alex: Would you shush already? I'm trying to think of what to say.

Card: *sticks out it's tounge* Well it's obviously not working.

Alex: *rolls eyes as she finishes filling out the card, putting it in an envelope that says "Claudia" on it*

*the card makes muffled protests from inside the envelope*

Alex: *grabs another card*

Card: *pops out a pair of arms and legs*

Alex: Don't even THINK about running away!

Card: Run away? Are you kidding? I was gonna dance!

Alex: Oh. *grabs the card and begins to write in it*

Card: Come on! Let's boogie!

Alex: You can boogie AFTER Kyle reads you! *puts the card in an envelope that says "Kyle"*

Bean: *wrapped in a bundle of wrapping paper* Alex, could you come help me?

Alex: *shuts the lid of the box and goes to help unwrap Bean*

Bunsen:
Nearly Christmas time!
The excitment is too much for me to control!
I must not be tempted to peek into the gifts...
(Looks to the gifts nearby)

Oh, how dreadful--I am tempted.
(Smiles slyly)
Just an innocent peek...
I'm sure nothing horrible will happen.
(Reaches out to open a box)

[An alarm goes off]

Claudia:
(Runs into the room)
Phil, evacuate the room!

Dr. Van Neuter:
Yes, ma'm!

Claudia:
Beaker, bring me the intruder!
(Looks serious)

...and bring me the gingerbread cookie.
Please?
(Giggles)

Beaker:
(Is shocked that Bunsen is the guilty one)
Meeeepp?

Claudia:
(Gasps)
Bunnie, how could you?
I suspected Alex was the one trying to take a peek at her gifts!
I mean, I even suspected Erin, Edward, and all that...
bu-bu-but you?

Bunsen:
(Looks to the floor shamefully--gets an idea)
I've....I've a cookie for you.

Claudia:
(Blinks)
OH YAY!
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
(Tackles him to the floor and gets the cookie)
Num num for Claudia!
HEEEHEE!

Dr. Van Neuter:
You didn't really try to put a cookie in her gift, did you?

Bunsen:
(Pats him on the back)
Perish the thought!
A gentleman like myself would never attempt such a thing.
Silly, Phillip.
(Stands a little straighter)

Claudia:
(Rolls around the floor hyperly)

Bunsen:
Restraints for Claudia?
That'd be a perfect gift.

Dr. Van Neuter:
Yeah. The girl needs it.

Beaker:
MEEEMOMWEEEEEEE!
(Gets caught into Claudia's fun)

Claudia:
WHEEEE!

Beaker:
(Whimpers)

Bunsen:
(Looks to his gifts irritably)
I'll open them at 12:00 then.

Dr. Van Neuter:
Say what?

Bunsen:
Tsstsst.

 

[The Count]

Hoo-boy... Good thing we're in here where it's nice and toasty and comfy cozy are we... There seems to be a slushball maylay going on all around town. Oh well, we're stocked up with provisions and presents and friends of good cheer.
*Hunkers down to read the audio version of some books bought at Coming Unbound with the gift card I got for my B-Day.

 

[Erine81981]

A knock is heard from the door

Wonder what that could be? *opens the door* Hello? Oh someone is playing that game again. Knock Knock Ditch.

Card: No silly.

Who said that?

Card: *floats up to me* I did.

A card?

Card: Not just any card. A christmas card.

Christmas Card! Oh wow! And one that talks. *opens it up* Ooooooo what a sweet and nice thing to say. That girl is such a cutie pie when it comes to anything.

Card: Can i hang out?

Sure.

Card: *starts to dance*

Wait. You need some music.

Card: *smiles*

*turns on some christmas Muppety music* Enjoy.

 

[Beakerfan]

Alex: Bean, the Kyle's card walked off without his present! Would you go bring it to him?

Bean: Sure! *grabs a box marked "Kyle" which contains hats and scarves for everyone in Kyle's room*

Alex: And Sweetums, would you mind bringing Claudia's present to her? Don't let her mouthy card get away!

Sweetums: Oh boy! I get to go see Claudia! I mean.. um... sure! *grabs Claudia's present, which contains homemade fudge and beanies for the four crazies*

Alex: *opens the box of cards*

Card:*jumps onto the edge of the box* And now, for my next daring feat of amazement!

Cards in box: OOOOoooooh!

Card: I will jump into this ENVELOPE!

Alex: *smacks forehead* That's a Ryan card if I ever saw one....... *writes in it, then puts it in an envelope marked "Ryan"* Elmo, would you take this to Ryan's room, along with his present?

Elmo: Oh, Elmo would LOOOOOVE to go take Ryan's present! *picks up a box with scarves and mittens, each with the names of Ryan and his roomies embroidered on them* Come on, card! Elmo will take you to Ryan!

*the three leave to deliver their assigned presents*
