Fireworks Week (episode)/Transcript

(Harvey Girls Forever! intro plays with the song sung in Italian instead of English.)

[Richie Rich title card reads "Fireworks Week"]

(SkyMansion flying)

(Richie talks to the Harvey Girls and Gloria about the episode Crush 4U, Where RU?)

Richie: And after the robots were assembled, I wanted to show them to you guys as a gift from me.

Dot: Yeah. I think they were the best.

Richie: I know. See, when the concert happened, you were all shocked about what I wanted you to know, which we all decided to do today!

Lotta: But, we don't remember.

Dot: Lotta agrees. Some Ouran High School Host Club will help us.

Richie: What? I don't like manga and anime, especially Ouran High School Host Club and Fruits Basket! Besides, I wasn't talking about watching anime, I was talking about Fireworks Week in Milan!

Audrey: What's Fireworks Week, Richie?

Richie: That is easy! It's a seven day Attack on Titan style fall festival complete with a charity which tells the history of fireworks. See, there's everything to do. The Milanese Affogatto and fried Oreos. The rides and games as if it is an amusement park. The office people visit to make their own fireworks for a nightly light show. Told you I've been there.

Lotta: But how old were you when you've been there as the moment you told us this?

Richie: Well, let me say, like, four? Because I lived in Milan from the ages of two to five. So, we're going there so I can experience it with all of you!

Audrey: (gasps) Did you hear that? We're going to go to Disney World!

Harvey Girls: Yay!

Irona: Attention, you have reached your destination.

Audrey: Yes! We made it!

(It lands in Milan, Italy)

Richie: Well, here we are, guys!

Audrey: At least it's not Disney World.

Richie: Now, you all gotta commit how fireworks existed. (Puts up a picture of Kitty Carson) My BFF Kitty Carson lives in Milan, and has opened Fireworks Week probably in 2006.

Dot: I wasn't in that year, but I have long history for it. (Imagines a flashback to 960 where fireworks were invented, then kids watching fireworks) Long ago in China, fireworks were invented with gunpowder and chemical elements, so they had to use bamboo sticks filled with gunpowder to scare away evil spirits! Now from the modern, kids enjoy a spectacular display which can be a little dangerous, I guess.

(The imagination moves forth where we see Marie Curie inviting Pierre to watch fireworks, Blaze and a hurtful Kate watching the fireworks, Pegtor lighting up fireworks making herself watch with Cheevanka and Narwhalla, Crush4U performing in concert while wearing Uncle Sam hats and waving sparklers where a light in their logo breaks causing a firework to explore and create "Happy 4th of July!" in script, and Lil' Lad riding in a subway train but seeing faraway fireworks)

Audrey: Yeah, but did it have to be season 1 episode 22 of "The Adventures of Marie and Pierre Curie" is called "Feux D'artifices", translated as "Fireworks"?

Lotta: No, but Blaze and Kate watched fireworks at the end of "Striking Danger 7: It Was A Trap, And So Was Danger".

Dot: Then there was episode 163 of "The Horn-A-Corns" called "The Fireworks Display of the Horn Festival". I love that episode, and the Harveylodeon airings of Crush4U's "Love Life and Fireworks" concert special.

Richie: Yeah, and there was a theatrical film called "Lil' Lad Sees the Fireworks of the Unknown". (Imagination over)

Dot: I'm going to ride on that roller coaster here. (Pointing to kids riding on an Italian roller coaster)

Richie: Oh, you mean "Cielo Di Potere"? I rode on that the first time I was in Fireworks Week. I'm going to take a tour of the Museum of Fireworks, a traditional area created only for Fireworks Week.

Lotta: Would I love to come with you!

Audrey: Me too! I hope it has the history of fireworks seen here!

Lotta: I hope for a performance of Crush4U.

(Suddenly, a woman appears)

Kitty Carson: Oh, you must be Richie! I haven't seen you in so long, this is the first time we meet together since the Fireworks Week that happened three years ago.

Richie: Hey, Kitty Carson! This is Audrey, Lotta and Dot, and here is my newest baby cousin, Gloria.

(Gloria giggles happily)

Kitty Carson: Wow, you meet girls? I couldn't believe it myself. Now, girls, listen here. I used to be a criminal sheriff girl, but now I married Flat Top and became a Milanese pyrotechnician just like him. Every year I help my friends create an amazing display for Fireworks Week.

Lotta: If you believe that you could be a sheriff for criminals then a pyrotechnician for awesome fireworks displays, then I gotta commit, you're the best one here!

Kitty Carson: Oh, Lotta, how could I never forgot that? I love my new job in Milan.

Lotta: Well, yeah, even for fireworks. Just so you know, they are super flashy!

Richie: Great, we have to do everything here soon. Where do you want to eat?

Dot: There's an fried Oreo stand here. They even have fried Firework Oreos with popping candy!

Richie: Okay. Let's go.

(After the fried Oreos)

Kitty Carson: Oh, here you are now. Before we start on making a beautiful fireworks display, let's learn about special effects and colors. Come to my office now.

(They arrived there)

Kitty Carson: Okay. Let's learn about rockets. Not only do they soar up into the sky and cause a multi-sensory experience with flashes of light in a rainbow of color, but fireworks can make a lot of sound as well! In fact, may firework enthusiasts like the sound of the explosion even more than the visual effects.

Audrey: So, what a kind of special effects will be?

Kitty: I don't know.

Richie: Well, I got the fireworks guide right here.

Dot: Cool.

Richie: (reads) Ok, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, peony, titanium salute, flower, heart shaped, brocade, crackling, chrysanthemum, crossette... I like all kinds. (stops reading) Kitty, one question, do you have a firework that is your favorite?

Kitty Carson: Excuse moi?

Richie: Mine is... The one with copper, for blue color, and strontium, for red color.

Kitty: Oh, cool! You want to know my favorite firework? I really love the ones with the barium oxide, and is diadem style.

Lotta: I don't know what a diadem is?

Kitty Carson: Alright, listen up. The diadem effect is a stunning variation on peonies or chrysanthemums. This firework contains a center of stars that briefly remains still, creating a freeze frame of celestial wonder. Breaking from our botanical theme, diadem means “royal crown,” as many fans of Harry Potter know.

Richie: Oh, so that's so.

Dot: Wow. That's so fascinating.

Audrey: More than fascinating. This is fascinatingly awesome!

Kitty Carson: What are your favorite fireworks, girls?

Dot: I like the willow and the peony!

Audrey: I like the palm and the fish!

Lotta: I like the palm and the chrysanthemum! And hey, question, Kitty. What gives fireworks colors?

Kitty Carson: Well, that's a good question. I promise it will be short because we're going to ride the Cielo Di Portero soon. And I have to say, these items for the colors and the aerial fireworks shells are in your Fireworks Week kit I will definitely bring you later. So, I'll explain the colors while talking about the elements that fireworks are used for.

Dot: Okay. I hope they are made with radium, it's the best element thanks to Curie.

Kitty Carson: Aluminium metal is used to produce silver and white flames and sparks. It is a common component of sparklers.

Dot: Got it.

Audrey: Okay, Carson Kitty, Nevada, what's the next element?

Kitty Carson: Barium salts are used to create green colors in fireworks, and it can also help stabilize other volatile elements.

Lotta: Ooh, the green ones are beautiful!

(While Kitty in her Italian accent talks about colors, Dot take more about fireworks)

Dot: Wow, Kitty has a more better accent then Ryan. And hey, why were the fireworks part of a game show?

Audrey: Why?

Dot: Because they had to "pop the question"!

(Audrey laughs)

Kitty: ...operate with the same optical emission. Oxygen is a component of chlorate and perchlorate, common oxidizers. Sulfur is a component of black powder, and as such, it is found in a propellant/fuel. Strontium salts impart a red color. Titanium metal can be burned as powder or flakes to produce silver sparks. And last but not least, Zirconium, like titanium, burns to produce oxides that emit brightly. It is used in "waterfalls".

All: Oh!

Dot: That is quite good.

Lotta: So what we have in plans now?

(Audrey thinks)

Audrey: Let's enjoy the tea cup ride.

Richie: Great. So let's go.

(Harvey Girls and Richie go to tea cup and they enjoy the tea cup ride.)

Lotta: Yay! That was so awesome.

Dot: Yeah.

Lotta: That was fun, Gloria.

(Gloria touches Lotta's nose, giggling)

(Kitty Carson reappears)

Kitty: Oh, you guys are here? I thought we can create our own fireworks right away.

Richie: We'll do but first we need some entertainment.

Kitty: I see...

Audrey: So when we'll beginning.

Kitty: Somewhere in 5 minutes. First we need to choose colors.

(They're in place with fireworks with various colors)

Lotta: Whoa such a choice: Blue, red, green, white, golden, silver, emerald, sapphire, diamond, amethyst.

Audrey: Lot of colors. Well, which will be better for our special fireworks project?

Kitty: Those were my firework elements. See, my 10-pack fireworks starter kit comes with six basic color elements, four effective elements, and gunpowder.

Lotta: But emerald, sapphire, diamond, and amethyst.

Kitty: They are for broader colors.

Lotta: Okay.

Kitty: Ciao for now. I'm going for Affogatto.

(Suddenly, a guy named Flat Top appears)

Audrey: Guys! The entertainment is starting!

Flat Top: Sorry, I'm not entertainment, I'm Flat Top, Kitty's husband. I set off the fireworks for Fireworks Week. Hello, Richie, I haven't seen you in long.

Lotta: Are you helping us to create cooler fireworks?

Flat Top: If you dream to inspire, then yes. I have created the best horsetails ever.

Audrey: That would be awesome.

Flat Top: Indeed. I'm sure you'll love these.

Dot: We would be pleased to see this.

Flat Top: Ok. Audrey, that's a nice fireworks you're making.

Audrey: How did you know my name? Nevermind, I want it to look like my sister Zoe. See, I'm going to use orange and red for her brown hair. Next I'll make a cooler explosion-like one!

Dot: I'm making a butterfly firework. It's going to be the most beautiful firework ever.

Lotta: My firework is going to be cooler than yours, Dot. It's going to be amethyst peony with gold brocade.

Flat Top: Well, that would be amazing to see these. And you Richie? What a form of fireworks you would like do?

Richie: Well, I'm making regular fireworks. They are to appear like any other fireworks display while our special ones are seen. I'm going make a

Flat Top: That's as fine as a feather.

(Gloria creates a firework that looks like Richie's RR logo)

Audrey: Aww, look at her.

Dot: I must admit, she's very creative while she make these.

Lotta: Okay, aaaand done. And Kitty's back, just in time!

(Meanwhile outside)

Lotta: For entertainment!

Mortimer: (offscreen) Hey, a little quieter please? We're trying to plan our concert for tonight.

Lotta: Oh, Sorry.

Richie: Plus, the "Cielo Di Potere" roller coaster broke down and now I won't be able to ride it.

Lotta: Try something else?

(One hour later when the fireworks are about to start)

Richie: Hey, at least it's getting dark! While we wait for the fireworks, let's play "Truth or Dare".

Audrey: Sound very cool. I have a empty bootle. Here we go.

(Audrey spins a bootle, which spins and when it stops and point at... Dot)

Dot: Oh.

Richie: Well, Dot? Truth? Or Dare?

Dot: Hmm... I'm saying truth. What's your favorite color?

Richie: I... I don't know. My title card in our episodes is purple.

Dot: Oh, right, I liked blue silver and purple.

(Dot spins the bootle. Then stops and points at Lotta)

Lotta: Oh it's my turn.

Dot: Truth or dare?

Lotta: I pick dare. Nudge Audrey on the head.

(She nudges Audrey)

Announcer: Attention, it's one minute before the fireworks. Go over to the end of the bridge.

Richie: One minute? Come on, we need to hurry!

(Harvey Girls and Richie arrived to to the end of the bridge)

Dot: I can't wait to see my butterfly firework.

Announcer: Greetings boy and girls. I invite you to a fireworks show. So ready to watch?

Everyone: YES!

Announcer: Well it's show time! Three. Two. One!

(And it wasn't the fireworks, several cars were driving past)

Richie: That's not fireworks, those are cars driving.

Lotta: Come on, where are they?

(Suddenly, music plays with the fireworks starting)

Dot: Look

(Fireworks will float in the air and explode shimmering with different colors)

Kids: Oooooh. Aaaah.

(Fireworks swarm around while one forms a butterfly colors - the same Dot's favorites)

Dot: Oh! That's the fireworks in butterfly colors. My favorite.

(More fireworks and another forms a amethyst peony with gold brocade colors - the same Lotta's favorites)

Lotta: Amethyst peony with gold brocade! This is much beautiful I ever seen.

(Next fireworks forms a orange, red and brown as Audrey mentioned)

Audrey: Cool. Zoe would love to see this.

(Then the another fireworks forms Richie's RR logo in various colors)

Richie: Wow. So much beautiful. Isn't it, Gloria?

Dot: What other styles did we make?

(A power outage like turn off then happens)

Richie: What? No! All the lights! They're turned off.

Kitty: (On PA) Okay, listen up! The fireworks can resume in 30 seconds, so the reason why all the lights here are turned off for this display is about to happen.

Audrey: Oh, don't tell me the police will make a guest appearance on Fireworks Week this year!

Kitty: (On PA) On the stage far from the water, with screens showing this so you all can see better. They will perform before you: Crush4You!

(The concert with Crush4You is starting.)

Lotta: Oh my gosh! Crush4You will sing this concert on this occasion.

(They sing "Shimmer Kaboom Time")

(Everyone celebrate and have fun.)

(Fireworks forming a Harvey Girls and Richie's faces in various colors. Then form a script "Happy Fireworks Week" in various colors)

Riche: This is the best Fireworks Week, which I had.

Audrey: I'm glad that you love it.

Richie: Thanks. It was worth to see it.

(They continues watching fireworks)

(The fireworks froms a script "The End" in various colors).

The end.
