**Free Gilly** is the second segment of 12th episode of season 2 in Harvey Street Kids.

## Synopsis

Based on a movie he saw Dot, Billy wants to free Bruce in order to gain her affection.

## Argument

The episode begins with Dot leaving her house in an abandoned Harvey Street, Billy arrives from the skies asking her to dance with him, while the latter takes her floating and Dot flatters the music of conga in the background, with Billy telling her it's their heartbeat. Thereafter, it is revealed that Billy was daydreaming all of this, where is interrupted by Joel, who wants him to focus on drawing the portrait of a Gothic parrot who paid in advance. Billy tells him that he can't focus as he turns his dialogue into a song about his love for Dot.

Joel reminds him to forget about her, but Billy plans to show her his picture of her. Lotta's pet rabbits are present saying they like love, and then they are chased by Joel referring to them as a cult of odd rabbits. Joel while singing says to stay away from her or else he will be rejected. Billy sets out to prove Joel and the other skeptics animals wrong, so he goes to the Harvey Girls HQ and indirectly throws the drawing through the skylight.

For her part, Dot is distracted by a movie and mistakes Billy's drawing for a napkin, drying her tears and making it a ball. Dot proceeds to say how much she liked the movie as she praises the romantic gesture of releasing camels, then meets Bruce in her popcorn, sarcastically telling Audrey if anyone were there to support it.

Billy plans to free Bruce with Fluffy by taking her to the lake. On the spot, a duckling friend of Billy will catch her attention as he releases the fish from her bottle, and Dot will be so delighted by the gesture that she will ask him to marry. Billy begins to make a speech about freeing Bruce to get help from the other animals, but many of these remain skeptical and noticing that Billy wants to help Bruce in an interested way. Joel however, supports him and says he does it selflessly, so the other animals reluctantly support him.

At the HQ, Billy begins extracting Bruce, while the cub raccoons change the movie to an action one, and Fluffy pretends to want to go to the bathroom. This causes Dot and Lotta to go together and Audrey is too distracted to watch the fish, therefore the animals' attempt is effective.

In the lake, Billy remains hesitant to release her since Dot is not present to see his act of heroism. Joel notices the trick and faces him, with Billy saying that the heart knows what it wants, to which the first one reacts disappointed. As Bobby is throwing some crumbs into the lake and the girls are distracted by scolding him as there is a signal restricting that action, combined with the attack of a pelican who manages to snatch the bottle from Joel, Billy's plan gets ruined.

Lotta manages to scare the pelican with a dance, and they get Bruce back. Dot convinces Audrey to leave the fish and have Lotta take her along with the rabbits. The girls proceed to throw a welcome party for Bruce at Lotta's house with Billy being invited as he tried to save the fish, which he interprets as a date. Joel tries to put the differences between the two behind, but Billy asks him to find a bouquet of roses for the "date".

At the party, Billy finally has a chance to dance with Dot, while ignoring the fact that the rabbits are teasing the fish with their love overload putting stickers and making it sparkle. Then Billy repents and confronts the rabbits that block his path, so the first is forced to use his scent that distracts the rabbits and runs away to the lake with the girls chasing him.

Billy manages to free Bruce and when he believes that Dot will hate him for spraying Lotta's room, Joel is happy showing himself indirectly as a possible romantic interest. But Dot arrives congratulating him on his deeds saying that he is someone heroic and dances very well. Joel for his part sings that he does not need anyone and his song is instrumentally extended to the end credits.
