## Script

*[In the Castle, the living room, Alfred is shown building a tower out of pink and blue building blocks. Micheal is also helping him. After Alfred puts the last piece on top, he taps on the toybox.]*

Alfred: "Robert! We need more blocks!"

Robert: "Here!" *[Pulls out another box of blocks, giving it to Alfred]*

Alfred: "Why thank you."

*[Meanwhile, Arion is sitting on the couch, reading a Comic Book. He looks to check on the toddlers, and then goes back to the book, turning the page. Back to the toddlers, they have now built at least four towers. Robert waddles around them as he accidently knocks one over.]*

Robert: "Oops.."

Alfred: *[Comes from behind the toybox]* "Robert you idiot! You ruined our tower!"

Robert: "I didn't mean to, Mr. Genius! It was an accident!"

*[Alfred then kicks Robert to the floor.]*

Alfred: "Your existence is an accident!"

Micheal: "Guys.."

Arion: "Hey! You two! Stop fighting! It's past your bedtime anyway. Now say sorry to each other."

Alfred: "Hmph. Sorry, Robert.."

Robert: "Sorry for nothing, Alfred!"

Arion: "Ugh. Let me just help you guys in your pajamas."

[After the toddlers are in their pajamas, Alfred and Micheal are picking up the toy blocks, while Robert is in the toybox, taking the blocks in. Once they finish, Alfred holds up a small box and gets a fun idea. Cut to Alfred pushing Robert in the box, as Micheal is playing with the window curtains. Arion comes back into the chaos.]

Arion: "Guys! You're supposed to be getting ready for bed!"

Micheal: "But we're having fun.."

Arion: "There's a whole day tomorrow for fun, Micheal.."

Alfred: "You want us to wait that long?!"

Arion: "Yes! Now go brush your teeth!"

[The toddlers have grumpy looks on their faces as they all walk upstairs. Alfred runs into the bathroom first and locks the door.]

Alfred: "I need privacy! Do you mind??"

Micheal: "Fine! We'll just use the other bathroom.."

[Cut to Micheal standing on a big stool brushing his teeth at the sink, and Robert sitting on the bathtub brushing his teeth with soap. He realizes as he spits it out, but his tooth is sparkling clean.]

Robert: "Blech. Soap smells good.. but doesn't taste good!"

[Cut to Alfred. He's sitting on the toilet, reading a coloring book. Instead of brushing his teeth, he's brushing the wall with his toothbrush. He laughs at the coloring book. The toddlers then walk to Arion.]

Arion: "Did you brush your teeth."

Micheal: "Yes!"

Alfred: "Yeah!"

Robert: "Uh-huh!" [Burps soap bubbles]

Arion: [Sighs] "Did you brush your teeth with soap again, Robert?"

Robert: "It smells good!"

Arion: "Huh. Well, I'll come tuck you guys in in a second." [Arion walks to his room]

[Robert is playing with a mini skateboard as Alfred smiles mischievously. Alfred pushes Robert down the stairs off-screen as he screams. Arion comes out of the room hearing the commotion.]

Micheal: "Alfred!"

Arion: "What happened!"

Micheal: "Alfred pushed Robert down the stairs!"

Arion: "Ugh, Alfred!" [Goes to get Robert]

Alfred: "I didn't!"

Micheal: "Yes you did.."

Arion: [Comes back upstairs holding Robert] "Okay, guys. It's time for bed for real."

Micheal: "Okay fine.."

[Cut to Alfred, Micheal, and Robert in Micheal's bed. Arion is tucking them in.]

Arion: "Goodnight." [Smiles at them as he starts closing the door]

Robert: "Wait!"

Arion: "What is it?"

Robert: "I'm thirsty!"

Arion: "Thirsty? Why didn't you tell me before you got in the bed?"

Robert: "I forgot I was thirsty."

Arion: "Ugh, fine."

[Cut to Arion giving Robert a bottle as Robert drinks it.]

Arion: "Now go to sleep! For real this time!"

Micheal: "Wait! Wait!"

Arion: [Sighs] "What is it, Micheal?"

Micheal: "I'm hungry! I want a cookie!"

Arion: "A cookie? But it's too late for sweets!"

Micheal: "Please?? Please please please!!"

[Robert throws the empty baby bottle at Arion's head and burps.]

Arion: "Ow! Ugh, fine! I'll give you cookie.."

[Cut to Micheal eating a cookie happily, as a tired Arion walks to the door.]

Arion: "Okay, guys.. now it's time to go to bed.."

Alfred: "Wait!"

Arion: [Groans] "What now??"

Alfred: "Nothing." [Smiles]

Arion: [Eye twitches] "Okayy.. time to sleep then!"

Robert: "Wait, wait, wait!"

Arion: "WHAT NOW?!"

Robert: "Can we have a bedtime hug?" [Puppy eyes]

Arion: [Facepalms and groans] "Fine, fine.."

[Arion gives the toddlers hugs and walks back to the door, yawning]

Arion: "Okay, guys.. time to sl-"

Micheal: "WAIT!"

Arion: "WHAT?! WHAT COULD YOU WANT NOW?!?"

Micheal: "Bedtime story."

Arion: [Covers his eyes and groans] "F-fine. Fine.. but this is the LAST time!"

[Cut to Arion sitting on a chair, reading a bedtime story to the toddlers.]

Arion: "And then they all sleep peacefully. The end."

[Arion closes the book and looks over to see the toddlers fast asleep.]

Arion: "Oh, finally.. now I can sleep.."

[Arion walks out the room, but since he is so tired, he falls asleep on the floor next to his bed. Sugar is confused as she grumbles and lays on top of Arion.]

Alfred: "Arion!"

[He gets no response.]

Micheal: "Arion, cookie!"

[No response.]

Robert: "Teedddyy!!"

[Still no response. The toddlers look at each other in confusion. Their confusion then turns into excitement.]

Alfred: "Arion must be asleep.. which means.."

Alfred, Robert, and Micheal: "Playtime!"
