## Transcript

(*The Modifyers theme intro*)

(*Title card: "A Modifairy Tale"*)

(*The episode opens in nighttime to the Modifyers blimp. Inside, Mole is in his sleeping eye masks, snoring loudly, with saliva drooling down in mouth, asleep. A shadow rises over him, and Xero's hand shakes him*)

**Xero's voice:** (*voice-over; whispers*) Mole? Mole? Are you awake?

(*But Mole is still asleep. The hand then bangs his head, waking him up*)

**Mole:** What?! Who?! Wha?! (*Gazes to realize it is Xero, in her pajamas, and with her straight face, and her both hand behind her*) What is it now, Xero? It's nearly morning. Shouldn't you be in bed?

**Xero:** I would, but…

**Mole:** But what?

**Xero:** Could you consider a favor for me?

**Mole:** Yes?

**Xero:** (*shows him a book "Goldilocks and the Three Bears"*) Could you read this storybook to me?

**Mole:** (*laughs*) Seriously?

**Xero:** Well, duh. It helps me to sleep, right?

**Mole:** Xero, I am certainly not gonna read you the book.

**Xero:** (*on her knees, whining*) Ple-e-e-e-e-ease?!

**Mole:** You're an adult! So no!

**Xero:** But I spend all night having hard time to sleep. I can't even make warm milk out of seven months old milk.

**Mole:** Why can't you just read the book by yourself?

**Xero:** I'll sue you!

**Mole:** Oh, stop it! I told you once, but I'm telling ya again! I'm not reading this book to you, and that's that! (*Xero showing him with her puppy-eyes, begging*) Oh no no no no. No way, girl! That face you make won't change my mind. And I'm telling you right now before morning. (*Xero widen her eyes big; to Mole's pique*) Xero! (*Xero lean close to him, widen her eyes bigger, still begging him*) What are you doing? (*Xero pursing her lips, whimpering. And hold her hand, still begging him. Mole finally groans in his irritation*) AAAGGH!! Okay! If you please stop showing off you face in front of me, I'll read you a story, before you'll sleep!

**Xero:** (*smiles widely to her glee*) You're sure?!

**Mole:** (*sighs annoyed*) Yes.

**Xero:** (*squeals happily, hugging Mole*) Oh, thank you, Mole! (*hugging him tightly; toning her voice up to high-pitch*) Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank yooooooooooooooooou!

**Mole:** (*choking*) Xero, you're sabotaging me!

**Xero:** (*releasing him*) Sorry.

**Mole:** Gimme your book. (*Xero hand her book to him. She sits on the floor as Mole begins to read the story*) "Once upon a time, there once was a house lived three bears…" (*later*) "…And Goldilocks never entered a house uninvited again. *The end*.

**Xero:** You know, Mole. This story won't help well. I'm not even tired.

**Mole:** And what did you have in mind to put you in your slumber now?

**Xero:** Well… Maybe we need to give this story some changes.

**Mole:** Changes?

**Xero:** Yeah. To contain action and excitement! We change the title into… "Modilocks and the Three Bear Thieves"!

**Mole:** Aw, come on, Xero. Forget it! I'm not reading to you again, even changes it got.

**Xero:** If you don't wanna read it, then okay, that'll be me. (*Snatches the book from Mole*) Now let me do the storytelling.

**Mole:** (*reluctantly*) Okay, fine. Fine. I'll join ya. It better be good.

**Xero:** Okay. Ahem. Once upon a time, which it was seem like yesterday or so, (*a scene fades to a futuristic fairytale village. Xero's voice-over*) in a little village full of happiness and peace. But until one day, (*alarm sounded. The camera quickly pans left to the marketplace, with a window breaks*) Heist occurred.
