Clifford’s Hiccups/Transcript

Emily Elizabeth: "Clifford's Hiccups"
Clifford (offscreen): Hic! 
Mark Howard: Whoa! What was that? 
Clifford (offscreen): Hic! Hic!
Horace Bleakman: Whoa!
Clifford (offscreen): Hic! 
Horace Bleakman: What in blue blazes is that? 
Clifford (offscreen): Hic! 
Caroline Howard: Oh! 
Clifford (offscreen): Hic! 
Caroline Howard: Goodness! What is that? 
Clifford (offscreen): Hic!
Emily Elizabeth Howard: [Gasps] Whoa. What is that? 
Clifford (offscreen): Hic! 
Emily Elizabeth Howard: Oh, no! It's Clifford! 
Clifford (offscreen): Hic! Hic! 
Emily Elizabeth Howard: Is Clifford okay, Dr. Dinh? 
Dr. Dinh: He seems to be just fine. 
Clifford: Hic!
Dr. Dinh: Whoa-ooh! N-nothing serious. 
Caroline Howard: Well, we're glad to hear that. 
Dr. Dinh: It looks like Clifford just has a little case of the hiccups. 
Clifford: Hic!
Both: Whoa!
Horace Bleakman: Nothing is little when it comes to Clifford. 
Mark Howard: Is there anything we can do, doctor? 
Dr. Dinh: I'm afraid not. Sooner or later the hiccups will just go away on their own. 
Clifford (offscreen): Hic!
Horace Bleakman: Uh, what exactly do you mean "sooner or later"? 
Dr. Dinh: They could last a few minutes, or they could last for days. 
Clifford: Hic! [Whimpers] 
Emily Elizabeth Howard: Don't worry, Clifford. No one's ever had the hiccups forever. They'll go away soon. 
Dr. Dinh: That's right, Emily Elizabeth. 
Clifford: Hic!
Hic! 
Wow. Now,that'’s
a big hiccup. 
Yeah. He'’s been doing that
all morning. 
Sheriff lewis
says that a great way
to get rid of hiccups 
Is to have someone
scare them out of you. 
Hic! 
Yikes! 
Hey, clifford!
It'’s us! 
Come on out,
clifford! 
Hi, guys. 
We heard about
your hiccups, big guy. 
Hic! 
Everyonehas heard
about them. 
[Giggles] 
It'’s so strange.
Hic! 
I'’ve never had
the hiccups before. 
Phew! 
Aw, the hiccups
are nothin'’. 
I get '’em all the time. 
You do? 
Well... 
I had them once, 
When I was a puppy. 
At least, that'’s what
mrs. Diller said. 
I don'’t really remember. 
Emily elizabeth says they'’ll
go away on their own. 
I just have to be patient. 
Boo! 
Oh, hi, t-bone. 
Did I scare you, clifford? 
Umm...not really. 
Are you sure?
'’Cause sheriff lewis says 
That sometimes you can
scarethe hiccups away. 
Really? 
Well, maybe I was
a little scared. 
Wow. 
Hey! 
Hic! 
I guess not. 
But thanks
for trying, t-bone. 
Forget scaring
the hiccups away. 
I know how to
get rid of '’em. 
You do? 
Hic! 
Sure. 
Mrs. Diller says
that once you get 
Your "energy flowing
the right way," 
You can cure anything. 
Hmm. 
What does
thatmean, cleo? 
I dunno. 
But she calls it
"fung shwaying," 
And I'’ve watched her
do it lots of times. 
Does it hurt? 
Hic! 
Nope. 
I just have to move
a few things around
in your doghouse. 
Hic! 
Ok, cleo. Let'’s try it. 
Great! 
You wait here. 
I'’ll go get
everything
ready inside. 
[Bang] 
[Crash] 
What is she
doing in there? 
I don'’t know... 
Hic! 
Hic! 
Buh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh. 
...but I hope it works. 
Ok, clifford.
Come on in. 
Ta-daa! 
[Gasps] 
Wow! 
Is this gonna
cure my hiccups? 
Yup. 
You see, by moving
everything around, 
I'’m making all your
mystical hiccup energy 
Move right past
all this stuff-- 
Hee hee hee-- 
And straight out
the front door. 
Works every time. 
Hic! 
Well, it takes
a minute to work. 
Hic! 
Uhh... 
I-it'’s gonna work
real soon. 
Hic! 
Hic! 
Hic! 
I don'’t think
this is gonna work. 
[Humming] 
Hic! 
Hic! 
Hic! 
Thanks for
trying, cleo, 
But emily elizabeth
says I won'’t have
the hiccups forever. 
I just have to wait
until they go away. 
Hic! 
Aww. I wish we could
help, clifford. 
Aww, me, too. 
Well,iknow how to make
the hiccups go away... 
If anyone'’s interested. 
All: you do? 
Heh heh heh. 
Of course. 
How, mac? 
Just come with me,
clifford. 
I'’ll take care
of everything. 
Great! 
Hic! 
Hic! 
Here we are,
clifford. 
This'’ll do the trick. 
Swimming is gonna
get rid of his hiccups? 
Not swimming,
drinking. 
Drinking? 
That'’s right. 
You just drink 
big gulps of water. 
Well, ok. 
Hic! 
Wait! 
You have to
shut your eyes
while you drink. 
Oh. Ok. Hic! 
Wait! 
You also have to
hold your left ear
with your right paw 
And your right ear
with your left paw. 
Wow. That sounds hard. 
You'’re making this up,
mac. 
No, I'’m not! 
Are you sure? 
I'’m positive. 
Uh, guys?
Could we go on now? 
Oh. Heh heh. 
Sure, clifford. 
Go ahead
and drink the water now. 
Wait, wait!
He can'’t drink pool water. 
Heh heh heh heh.
Why not? 
It'’s for swimming
and splashing. 
You'’re not supposed
to drink it. 
Are you sure you know
what you'’re doing, mac? 
Oh, of course I do. 
Well, it doesn'’t
seem like it to me. 
Boo!
Whoa! 
I scared you that time,
didn'’t i, clifford? 
Yeah, you did
kind of startle me. 
Did I scare
the hiccups away? 
Well... 
Hey! I think you did! 
Yes! 
I did it! 
Wait a minute. 
You didn'’t scare
his hiccups away. 
They went away because
he did all that stuff
thatitold him to do. 
Cleo: nuh-uh! 
I'’m the one who made
his hiccups stop. 
What?!
What?! 
It just took awhile for that
energy-moving stuff to work. 
Ha ha ha.
Au contraire. 
I am the one-- 
[All arguing at once] 
Hic! 
Excuse me. 
Hic! 
We'’re sorry none of us 
Could get rid of
your hiccups, clifford. 
That'’s ok. 
You all tried your best. 
We really
wanted to help. 
You did help! 
I mean, you didn'’t
make my hiccups go away, 
But it sure made me feel good
that you tried so hard. 
Emily elizabeth: clifford! 
It'’s emily elizabeth! 
[Woof woof] 
[Woof woof woof
woof] 
There you are, clifford! 
How are your hiccups, boy? 
Did they finally go away? 
I don'’t hear anything. 
Clifford!
Your hiccups are gone! 
[Woof woof] 
[All barking] 
[Giggles] 
I'’m so happy for you! 
[Barking] 
It looks like your friends
are really happy for you,
too, clifford. 
It'’s nice having good friends
who care about you,
isn'’t it, boy? 
[Woof]
