Captain Feathersword: And I'm Captain Feathersword!
Shirley Shawn: Um, Captain, what are the cushions for?
Captain Feathersword: Shirley, I thought we'd play a game of musical cushions. That's where you play some music and then you hop, skip or jump around the cushions until the music stops.
Wags: And then you find a cushion to sit on?
Captain Feathersword: That's right, Wags.
Wags: Well, it sounds a bit like that game musical chairs, except you've got cushions instead.
Captain Feathersword: (laughing) It is indeed. Shirley, you can sing.
Shirley Shawn: Oh, I love to, Captain, but just one question before we start. If there are 4 of you playing, why are there only 3 cushions?

My hands to touch and my tongue to taste.
I use my eyes to see, see, see
I use my nose to smell, smell, smell
I use my ears to hear, hear, hear
My hands to touch and my tongue to taste.
(Transition to Dorothy watering her roses which transitions to Wags with 3 ballerinas.)

(They keep repeating getting faster & faster.)
Wags: Bou, bou, b-bou-bou...
Captain Feathersword: Ahoy there!
Wags: Oh, I'm beginning to wonder just who the second ballerina is. (to camera pointing to the viewers, while Captain Feathersword does his shushing gestures to tell them no.) You think it's not a ballerina? You think the second ballerina is Captain Feathersword? Well, let's have a look at these ballerinas. Well, the first ballerina has a beautiful tiara on her head. The second ballerina... has a pirate hat on his head. You could be right. Well, the first ballerina has a beautiful blue tutu. The second ballerina has a... beautiful black tutu, with a pirate vest and pirate shirt. Oh, this is becoming clearer that it is Captain Feathersword, but let's keep looking. Well, the first ballerina has a beautiful ballet shoes tied up with ribbon. The second ballerina has... pirate boots tied up with ribbon. I think you're right. I think you're Captain Feathersword.
Captain Feathersword: Oh, no, I'm not.
Wags: Oh, yes, you are.
Captain Feathersword: Oh, no, I'm not.
Wags: Oh, yes, you are.

Wags: You are.
Captain Feathersword: Oh, you're right, me hearties! It's me, Captain Feathersword! Hoo-hoo-hoo! Oh, but I just love doing all this wonderful ballet!
(Insert transition and scene, it has Paloma and Dorothy doing ballet as the rest of the Wiggly Band join them and tell a story about a bird.)
(Transition to A Bird Flew Around On A Bright Sunny Day.)
Dorothy: (singing) A bird flew around on a bright sunny day
Sat on a branch and decided to stay
The wind began to blow, the branch began to sway
The little bird was frightened and couldn't fly away
The rain tumbled down, the bird felt forlorn
She had to find a warm place to shelter from the storm
She found an empty nest, to keep her dry that day
The sun came out and the bird flew away
(Bubble transition to Wags reading a cookbook, as The Wagettes join him.)
Cartwhelle: Getting ready to cook, Uncle Wags?
Wags: I am, Cartwhelle. We're all going to Dorothy's place for a party and I thought I'd cook something to take with us.
Skally: Can we help?
Anthony: (laughing) Of course you can, Skally! I'm not sure what to make so I'm looking in this recipe book for some ideas.
Fluffy: Have you got any ideas already, Wags?
Wags: Well I thought we could make something ahead of time and put it in the fridge until it's time to go.
Skally: And maybe something people can eat, without having to use a fork or a spoon.
Fluffy: Finger food!
Cartwhelle: Well, here's some recipe books, guys. (Cartwhelle hands Fluffy a cookbook.) Here you go, Fluffy. (Cartwhelle hands Skally a cookbook.) Skally. Now, we've all got a recipe book, so now we can all look for something really delicious to take to the party.
(The Wiggles look through each of their cookbooks.)
Fluffy: Here's a recipe for Vegetable Soup. But that's not really finger food, is it?
Wags: No, no.
Cartwhelle: (gasps) How about, Christmas cookies?
Wags: Great idea Cartwhelle! Christmas cookies, we all love Christmas cookies. But, it's not a Christmas party.
Cartwhelle: Oh no, it's not.
Skally: (gasps) What about, a low fat, high fibre, birthday cake.
Wags: (laughing) Low fat, high fibre, birthday cake. Well that's a fantastic idea, Skally. But... It's not a birthday party.
(They all look through each of their cookbooks.)
Wags: I know, i've found the very thing. Grilled vegetable salad.
Cartwhelle: Grilled vegetable salad. Well, do you eat it hot or do you eat it cold?
Wags: Uhh, let me see. Aaah, grilled vegetable salad, you cook it, mmm, that's the grilling bit, but then, you eat it cold.
Skally: Wow, what's it made of?
Wags: Well, the ingredients should be in the fridge. (Wags puts his cookbook down onto the table.) We'll see what we got there. (Wags walks to the fridge, opens it and brings a tray of food to the table.) Voila, the ingredients.
Fluffy: The colours are nice, aren't they?
Wags: They're beautiful colours. Have a look at this. Yellow squash, yellow, orange, red capsicum, green zucchini, a beautiful dark purple eggplant and this is balsamic vinegar. Lovely, dark, dark in colour and wonderful in nature. (laughing)
Skally: And then, we can out in some coriander and put it in a jar in the fridge until it's time to go to Dorothy's party.
(Transition to Wags and the Wagettes with a bowl of grilled vegetable salad.)
Wafs: And here it is grilled, chopped and healthy. And you the best thing about healthy food?
Wagettes: No, what? Tell us.
Wags: You can eat lots and lots of it!
Wagettes: Oh Wags. Wah, wah, wah, waaaaaaaaaaah!
(Transition to Henry, Captain, Wags and Shirley Shawn as Dorothy joins them with a trolley full of things while a wiggly jazz band performs in the background.)
Wags: (he barks) Dorothy the Dinosaur! What have you got in those containers?
Dorothy: All sorts of things Wags. They're for a game. You have to see if you can tell what is in each one just by smelling.
Captain Feathersword: Can't you just tell by looking?
Dorothy (She giggles) Well that's the game. You have to close you eyes and tell what it is by the smell.
Shirley Shawn: And no peeping.
Dorothy: Close your eyes Shirley.
(Shirley Shawn closes their eyes and holds up their hands, while Wags gives them a container.)
Dorothy: What have you got?
Shirley Shawn: (sniffs) Oh I think I know what it is. (They sniffs again.) I think it's an onion. (Shirley opens their eyes and looks down at his hand to see that they’re holding an onion.) It is an onion!
Wags: Yay. Well, it's my turn now. Close my eyes. (He closes his eyes and gets a container from Dorothy.) (sniffs) Smell. (He sniffs again.) Familiar smell. (Anthony sniffs again.) Ooo, sweet smell. Bouquet, lovely. (sniffs again) It smells like soap. (Wags picks up the soap and opens his eyes.) It is soap. Yes! (laughing) Your turn, Captain.
Captain Feathersword: Great. (He closes his eyes and collects container from Dorothy) Thank you, Dorothy. (sniffs) Yes, I'm smelling it. (Captain sniffs again.) It smells tangy. (He sniffs again.) I think it's, oh. (He sniffs again.) It's some sort of fruit, I think. I think it's orange. (Captain opens his eyes, looks down and sees a slice of orange.) (gasps) It is. (Murray picks up a slice of orange.) It's orange.
Wags: Yeah!
Dorothy: Your turn Henry.
(Henry closes his eyes and holds out his hands, while Captain Feathersword gives him a container.)
Henry: (sniffs) It smells very nice. (He sniffs again.) Oh, a rather floral smell. (He sniffs again.) I've smelt these in the garden. (He sniffs again.) I think I know. It's rose petals? (Jeff opens his eyes and looks down to see a contain full of rose petals.) Yeah. (Henry sprinkles rose petals.)
Wags: Hey, I can smell something else.
Captain: What is it?
Wags: It smells like, rosy tea.
Dorothy: You're right, Anthony. I've just made a fresh pot. (She chuckles.) Come on everyone. (She giggles.)
Wags: Alright.
(Dorothy pours some rosy tea for her friends while the wiggly jazz band in the background finish. Then it cuts to the song Smell Your Way Through The Day.)
(Chorus)
Shirley Shawn: (singing) Smell your way through the day
Smell your way through the day
Captain Feathersword: (singing) A wonderful day waits for you and your nose,
Shirley Shawn: (singing) Smell your way through the day
I love the smell of toast, toast - covered with jam

Shirley Shawn: (singing) I love the smell of pancakes and omelettes - cooked in a pan
Wags: (singing) I love the smell of raisins and bran
(Chorus)
Shirley Shawn: (singing) I love to go walking through the garden and smell the fresh air

Shirley Shawn: (singing) I love the smell of stays, around, after the rain
Henry: (singing) Yes, I can smell that again and again
(Chorus)
Shirley Shawn: (singing) I love to smell dinner, cooking, on the stove
Dorothy: (singing) I smell the food and down it goes
Shirley Shawn: (singing) I love the smell of bubbles, bubbling in my bath
Wags: (singing) Off to bed and wait for the next day to start
Shirley Shawn: (singing) Smell your way through the day
Smell your way through the day
(insert transition and scene with Wags here)
(Transition to Hands On Your Ears where Captain Feathersword exercises while his pirate crew play instruments.)
Captain Feathersword: Let's all do an exercise song, me hearties!
(singing) Hands on your ears, bend and touch your toes
Hands on your waist, fingers on your nose
Walk on your toes, stretch up tall
Now walk on your heels and be sure you don't fall.
(Speaking) That was great, me hearties!
This time we are going to go a little faster,
Really get the heartbeat going!
(singing) Step to the front, jump up and down,
Spread your arms wide and you turn around,
Run on the spot, this is what you do
Now jump around the room like a kangaroo
(Speaking) Wow that was great, me hearties,
But now we are going to slow it down,
Sorta like a warm down.
Here we go!
(singing) Arms up front, swing them to the back
Swing them round in circles and you make your body slack
Bend from the waist, turn from side to side
Roll your shoulders round and round and stretch your legs wide.
(Speaking) Well done, me hearties!
(Transition to Wags with 3 guitarists: Guitarist Anthony, Captain Feathersword and Guitarist Murray)

Well, the first guitarist has a rock star jacket on. the second guitarist has a... pirate jacket. I think you might be right, let's have another look. The first guitarist has wonderful, sunglasses coolly put in his rock star hairdo. The second guitarist has a... pirate eye patch and a rock star hairdo. Like the hairdo.

(Transition to Wags with Simon, Captain Feathersword and Jeff dressed as cows.)

Captain Feathersword: Moo hoy there.
Wags: Moo, moo, moo, moo, moo.
Captain Feathersword: Hoy there.
Wags: Everybody, I'm beginning to think there's something very funny about this second cow. I'm not sure who the second cow really is. Hang on, are you saying, you think the second cow is Captain Feathersword? (He points to the camera.) Are you sure? (He points to the camera.) Well, please, have another look at the second cow. Is it Captain Feathersword? (He points to the camera.) Okay, well lets have a look at the cows and compare them and maybe we can decide then if it's Captain Feathersword. The first cow has wonderful cow like features, on all four legs. The second cow has, two legs, two arms. Looks very much like a pirate. (thinks) Let's have another look. The first cow has black and white hide. And the second cow, has pirate clothes on. You know, I think you're right. I think it really is Captain Feathersword. You're Captain Feathersword.
Captain Feathersword: Moo, I'm not.
Wags: Oh yes you are.
Captain Feathersword: Moo, no I'm not.
Wags: Moo, yes you are.
Captain Feathersword: Moo, no I'm not.
Wags: Moo, yes you are.

Captain Feathersword: Moo, no I'm not.
Wags: Yes you are.
(Captain Feathersword and Wags banter "yes you are" and "no I'm not" in gibberish, while Simon and Jeff shake their heads.)
Captain Feathersword: MOO!
Wags: Well, you can moo 'til the cows come home, but I really do think you're Captain Feathersword. You've got the pirate shirt, the pirate vest, everything pirate. Except for the wonderful head dress. Are you Captain Feathersword?
Captain Feathersword: Oh yes, it's me everyone. Well done. (laughing)
(Insert scene, intro and lyrics to D Is For Dorothy, I didn’t figure out the lyrics to this one as well.)

(Bubble transition to Wags with trumpet players Greg and Sam and Captain Feathersword.)
Wags: It's lots of fun to listen to all sorts of instruments, and today, we're gonna listen to the trumpet, a regal-sounding instrument, beautiful music. Here comes the first trumpeter. The first trumpeter plays...
(Greg plays a jazz tune on his trumpet.)
Wags: Oh, I like that! The second trumpeter plays...
(Captain Feathersword mimics a trumpet tune to a jazz melody.)
Wags: I really like that! The third trumpeter plays...
(Sam plays a fanfare on his trumpet.)
Wags: Ha-ha! I like that one. The first trumpeter plays...
(Greg plays a jazz tune on his trumpet.)
Wags: Gets me swingin' in the music groove! The second trumpeter plays...
(Captain Feathersword mimics a trumpet tune with a regal melody.)
Wags: A little bit more classically oriented. I like that. The third trumpeter plays...
(Sam plays a fanfare tune on his trumpet.)

(Greg plays a jazz tune on his trumpet.)
Wags: Oh-ho-ho! I like that. Third trumpeter plays...
(Sam plays a jazz tune on his trumpet.)
Wags: (chuckles) I like that one too. Second trumpeter plays...
(Captain Feathersword mimics a trumpet with a lively tune. But, it ends with a trumpet version of "Ahoy, ahoy, ahoy there!".)
Wags: Wow! It sounded like the second trumpeter went, "Ahoy, ahoy, ahoy there!" Let's listen again. Second trumpeter plays...
(Captain Feathersword repeats mimics a trumpet tune. But, it ends again with a trumpet version of "Ahoy, ahoy, ahoy there!".)
Wags: It happened again. Uh... Second trumpeter, it's... (He mimics a trumpet tune.)
(Captain Feathersword mimics a trumpet tune. But, ends with a trumpet version of "Ahoy there".)
Wags: It happened again! (mimics a trumpet tune again.)
(Captain Feathersword repeats mimics a trumpet tune. But, ends once again with a trumpet version of "Ahoy there".)
Wags: Beep, boop-boop, boop-boop...
(Captain Feathersword mimics trumpet sound with "Ahoy there".)
Wags: Oh ho ho ho ho, something funny's happening here everybody. I'm beginning to wonder just who this second trumpeter is. You think it's Captain Feathersword? Pretending that his feathersword is a trumpet and playing along? Well, really? Well, let's have a look at these trumpeters and make sure. The first trumpeter has a lovely boater on his head. The second trumpeter has a lovely hat called a boater on his head as well. So, that's the same. Let's have another look. Uh, the first trumpeter has a bow tie and a lovely trumpet playing vest. The, uh, second trumpeter has no bow tie and a pirate vest. I think you're onto something here. Uh, the first trumpeter has a lovely trumpet. Uh, beautiful. And the second trumpeter has a... A feathersword. I think you are Captain Feathersword.
Captain Feathersword: Oh no I'm not.
Wags: Oh yes you are.
Captain Feathersword: Oh no I'm not.

Wags: Yes you are.
Captain Feathersword: No I'm not.
Wags: You are.
(Captain Feathersword and Wags banter "yes you are" and "no i'm not" in gibberish until Captain mimics a trumpet.)
Wags: That just gave it away, that trumpet playing, it's you Captain Feathersword.
Captain Feathersword: (laughing) You're right me hearties, it was me all along. But I love to play the trumpet so much.
(Greg and Sam play "Wah, wah, wah, wah" on their trumpets.)
(Transition to Paloma making a pattern of flags.)
Paloma: I'm making a string of flags for Captain Feathersword to hang up on his ship. Some are plain blue and some are yellow and some are yellow with blue stripes and some are blue with yellow spots. I've started to put them together, but I'm trying to work out what goes next. See I've got blue, stripes, yellow and spots.
(Skally enters)
Paloma: Hi, Skally.
Skally: Woof! Hello Paloma, what are you doing?
Paloma: I'm making a string of flags for Captain Feathersword. But I'm not sure which one should go next.
Skally: (He turns to table behind him.) What about this one? (He turns back holding a blue flag.)
Paloma: You've got it Skally. I've already got a blue flag, a striped flag, a yellow one and a spotted one. So now I need blue again. But what comes next?
Skally: I think it might be this one.
Paloma: Stripes next? Oh yes, that's right. And yellow next. Blue, stripes, yellow. (giggles) Thank you, Skally.
Skally: (turns to table behind him) Here you are. (He turns back holding a spotted flag.)
Paloma: Yes, that's the pattern. Blue, stripes, yellow, spots, blue, stripes, yellow and spots and now blue again. Oh, isn't it great? Just what the captain wanted.
Captain Feathersword: (He enters laughing.) Ahoy there Paloma. (He looks at the string of flags.) What a wonderful string of flags. Ooh, look there's blue, stripes, yellow, spots, blue, stripes, yellow, spots, blue. Oh Paloma, this is the best string of flags I've ever seen, argh.

Captain Feathersword: Ooh Sam, they be rhyming buttons today.

Henry: How about propeller? (He presses a button on Captain Feathersword's vest.)
Captain Feathersword: Um, speller, cellar, umbrella and stellar.
Dorothy: Stellar, that means star.
Captain Feathersword: Ooh! Car, far, bar, tar.
Dorothy: Captain, I didn't even press a button.
Captain Feathersword: (laughing) Sometimes the magical musical pirate buttons work before you press them Dorothy.
Wags: Well Captain, I think I'm gonna trick you with this one. This is a very, very hard one, very difficult. (laughing) Good luck. (laughing) How about this (He presses a button on Captain Feathersword's vest.) Purple.
Captain Feathersword: Um, rurple, turple, gurple and furple.
Shirley Shawn: Rurple, turple, gurple and furple? Captain, they're not even real words.
