The Silent Treatment/Transcript

:Buster Baxter: You ever think about all the things we take for granted?
:Arthur Read: Like what?
:Buster Baxter: Like the little plastic tip of the shoelace! Without this little tip, it'd be really hard to get the lace through the hole.
:Arthur Read: Come to think of it, I rarely think about the rest of the shoelace, either.
:Binky Barnes: Got it!
:(Binky thuds to the ground.)
:Arthur Read: Unless it's untied.
:Arthur Read: How about the ant? Did you know ants can carry more than twenty times their weight?
:Buster Baxter: Ants are amazing! 
:Arthur Read: I know, and I never noticed that!
:Buster Baxter: And what about the good ol' park bench?
:Arthur Read: Always there when you need it! And yet, we take it for granted.
:Buster Baxter and Arthur Read: (sigh)
:George Lundgren: What about noticing me for a change? It's like I'm invisble! What about you guys? Do any of you see me?
:(George Lundgren taps the fourth wall's glass to ever desperately get a response from the audience.)
:George Lundgren: They forgot I was even there. I could've stayed behind that tree forever.
:Wally: Well, there are worse places to live. I come from an oak tree myself, and I'm proud of it.
:George Lundgren: No one ever pays attention to me. It's like I don't even exist.
:Wally: You exist, George! You're just as real as I am!
:George Lundgren: You're not real, Wally.
:Wally: (gasp) That's a terrible thing to say! If that's the way you feel, then I'm never saying another word.
:George Lundgren: Hey! That's a great idea! I'll stop talking and see if anybody even notices. I hereby vow not to talk to anyone, anymore... except to you.
:(George walks away from the bridge to the right side.)
:Sue Ellen Armstrong: George, there you are. I was looking all over. I just wanted to say... 
:(Sue Ellen is surprised by George Lundgren himself walking away solemnly.)
:Sue Ellen Armstrong: Guys, we have to do something about George. He was really upset after hide and seek.
:Buster Baxter: George was at hide and seek? Huh! I didn't notice.
:Sue Ellen Armstrong: Exactly... and it's not the first time we've forgotten about him.
:Arthur Read: We could throw him a party! 
:Binky Barnes: Yeah, it'll be a "George, We Know You're There" party!
:Sue Ellen Armstrong: I like it... but, let's not call it that.
:Buster Baxter: We could have a big cake that George pops out of!
:Arthur Read: We can't do that! Then, George would have to know about, and it should be a surprise, right?
:Sue Ellen Armstrong: Definitely! So, nobody say anything to him. Okay, here's what we'll do...
:Sue Ellen Armstrong: Look at the cake I baked for George's surprise party!
:George Lundgren: Arthur! Sue Ellen! Hi!
:Arthur Read: Quick! He can't see the cake! It'll ruin the surprise!
:(Sue Ellen and Arthur run away in fear of being found by George Lundgren.)
:Buster Baxter: Moose Punch! George's favourite!
:Binky Barnes: I'm gonna play a song for George on my clarinet. It's called "A Song For George".
:George Lundgren: Buster! Binky! Wait up!
:Buster Baxter: It's him! It's nay on the ong-say!
:(Binky and Buster run away in fear of being found by George Lundgren.)
