The Magic.

**Peppa Pig [voiceover]:** The Magic Xylophone.

*The episode opens with a view of Peppa’s house. Daddy Pig can be heard clearing his voice. In the playroom, George and Daddy Pig are sitting on the kiwi rug, facing each other. Peppa lays across Daddy Pig’s lap.*

**Daddy Pig:** Ladies and gentlemen, I will now play for you... the *Rondo Alla Turca*.

*Daddy Pig cracks his knuckles and clears his throat as Peppa giggles. Then he starts tickling and poking her all over, vocalizing the third movement of Mozart's* Piano Sonata No. 11 *as Peppa giggles and fidgets. Peppa manages to flee, but Daddy Pig tries to hold her down, getting dragged as she continues to crawl.*

**Daddy Pig:** Hey! Piano! Ladies and... gentlemen, I’m terribly sorry, I seem to be having a little bit of trouble with my piano!

*Daddy Pig finally gets Peppa back onto his lap, then proceeds to keep 'playing' all over her, repeating the same thing he did previously. George stands up.*

**George:** Dad, is my turn?

**Peppa:** No, it’s still my turn!

**Daddy Pig:** Taking turns can be difficult.

**George:** Dad, she’s had *this* much turns.

*George holds up five fingers and a foot.*

**Daddy Pig:** You can be the bum bongos!

*Daddy Pig puts Peppa aside, picks George up, lies him across his lap, and begins drumming his bottom, while vocalizing bongo sounds.*

**Daddy Pig:** ♫ Bum bumba bum, bum bongos! ♫

*Peppa starts to dance as George giggles.*

**Daddy Pig:** ♫ Bum bumba bum, bum bongos! Bum bumba bum, bum bongos! Bum bumba bum, bum bongos! ♫

*Mummy Pig walks in.*

**Mummy Pig:** Ooh, island rhythms!

*Mummy Pig joins in dancing. Daddy Pig continues to play the bum bongos as George laughs and Mummy Pig and Peppa dance.*

*Mummy Pig leaves, and Daddy Pig exercises his legs as Peppa holds onto them. Meanwhile, George is looking in a bucket full of musical instruments.*

**George:** Where are the real bon-gohs?

*George gasps at something inside the bucket and digs it out. He holds up a toy xylophone for everyone in the room to see.*

**George:** Sis, look!

**Daddy Pig:** Huh? Oh nooo...!

*Daddy Pig attempts to run, but Peppa manages to hold him down.*

**Peppa:** Quick, George! Get the dinger thing!

**Daddy Pig:** Let me up! Let me out of here! Aaah!

*George manages to dig out the mallet.*

**George:** Got it!

**Peppa:** Do a ding!

**George:** Freeze!

*George dings the xylophone with the mallet. Daddy Pig freezes in place.*

**Peppa and George:** *(giggle)* Yeah! The Magic Xylophone!

*Giggling, Peppa and George adjust Daddy Pig’s arms and mouth so that he's smiling with a thumbs up while picking his nose. Mummy Pig walks in, carrying some paper, likely for the printer.*

**Peppa:** Mummy, come look at this!

**Mummy Pig:** Oh look, it's just like when he first came to the Playgroup!

*Peppa picks up the Magic Xylophone and the mallet.*

**Peppa:** Unfreeze!

*Ding! Daddy Pig unfreezes, Peppa and George giggle.*

**Daddy Pig:** *(grunts)* What? How did I get fingers up my nose? Ah, the Magic Xylophone! Gimme that xylophone!

*Daddy Pig attempts to chase Peppa.*

**Peppa:** Freeze!

**Daddy Pig:** Gimme that x—!

*Ding! Daddy Pig freezes again. Peppa and George giggle.*

**Peppa:** George! Let's get the pens!

*Peppa and George drag chairs from the dining room, both giggling. Back in the playroom, Peppa draws glasses, eyelashes, and a moustache on Daddy Pig’s face with pens.*

**Peppa:** *(fancy voice)* Oh, what a splendid moustache you have!

*By now, Daddy Pig is wearing a deer antler hat, a sock on his tail, and George is putting a fuzzy scarf around his shoulders.*

**George:** *(fancy voice)* Ooh, nice.

*Peppa and George walk to in front of Daddy Pig. George lightly grabs the mallet.*

**George:** Is it my turn to stop-freeze him?

*Peppa ignores George, making him look sad.*

**Peppa:** Unfreeze!

*Ding! Daddy Pig stumbles and the kids squeal.*

**Daddy Pig:** Ugh! Oh, what? Argh, you kids! Grr!

**Peppa:** Run!

*Daddy Pig chases the kids outside the house as they giggle.*

**Daddy Pig:** Give me that magic xylophone!

*Daddy Pig catches up and grabs Peppa.*

**Daddy Pig:** Gotcha!

*Peppa screams as she's caught, then dings the Xylophone. Daddy Pig freezes.*

**Daddy Pig:** D'ah...

**Peppa:** *(taunting)* Ya-ha, too slow, Mr. Moustache!

**George:** Sis, let me freeze him next.

**Peppa:** C'mon, George. Let's get the teddies!

**George:** *(resigned)* Okay...

*Peppa and George run off, leaving Daddy Pig frozen in place. Mummy Sheep walks by. She slows down while passing by him, then hurries away. Peppa and George return, putting soft toys in Daddy Pig’s arms while giggling. Mummy Pig walks over, no longer carrying paper.*

**Chilli:** I'm going to work in my office, come get me if you need anything!

**Peppa:** Mummy, Mummy! Look at Daddy now!

*Mummy Pig examines Daddy Pig and spots a loose eyebrow hair.*

**Mummy Pig:** This loose hair's been *bugging* me all morning.

*Mummy Pig plucks out one of Daddy Pig’s loose eyebrow hairs, making him flinch and whimper. She then kisses Daddy Pig on the cheek, pats him, and starts heading back inside.*

**Peppa:** Ok, I'll unfreeze him.

**George:** I want to do it. Mum, sis is not let me have any turns.

**Mummy Pig:** Peppa, if you don't take turns with people, people won't take turns with you.

**Peppa:** But George is too slow. Dad will catch him.

**George:** No, I'm not!

**Mummy Pig:** You can either take turns, or I'll take the xylophone away.

**Peppa and George:** No!

**Daddy Pig:** *(muffled noises of protest)*

**Mummy Pig:** Well, you know what to do, then. I'll see you later, just make sure you unfreeze him for toilet breaks, ok?

**Peppa and George:** Ok!

*Mummy Pig goes back inside. Peppa gives George the xylophone and guides him to stand a few metres behind Daddy Pig.*

**Peppa:** Here, George. But stand right back here. That way you can get a head start. He runs *really* fast when he's mad.

**George:** Okay. Stop-freeze!

*Ding! Daddy Pig throws the teddies up into the air, confused, before spotting George and Peppa giggling behind him.*

**Daddy Pig:** *(splutters, gasps)* THERE YOU ARE! GRRRHH!

**Peppa:** Run, George! Back inside!

*Daddy Pig chases Peppa and George into the kids' bedroom.*

**Daddy Pig:** *(off screen)* George! Peppa! Come back here!

*George and Peppa hide under their bunk bed. Daddy Pig enters the room and his feet walk into view.*

**Daddy Pig:** Where are they? I can't find them anywhere!

*Peppa and George giggle.*

**Daddy Pig:** Huh, maybe they went downstairs!

*Daddy Pig stomps his foot and leaves. Cut to the hallway, where Peppa and George are tiptoeing past a closet.*

**Peppa:** *(whispering)* I can't hear him. I think we should freeze him just in case.

*George nods.*

**Peppa:** *(whispering)* Give me the Xylophone.

*Peppa attempts to take the xylophone from George.*

**George:** No, I want to freeze him! You've had *all* the freeze turns!

*Peppa and George start a tug-o-war with the xylophone.*

**Peppa:** George! Let go!

*As they both scream and yell, it is revealed that Daddy Pig is hiding in the top of the closet. Seeing his chance, he jumps down to the kids.*

**Daddy Pig:** FREEDOM!

*Daddy Pig lands with a thud, causing the mallet and xylophone to fly high up and into Daddy Pig’s hands.*

**Daddy Pig:** Got it! *(laughs villainously)* You ding-dongs were too busy squabbling! FREEZE!

*Ding! Peppa freezes with both arms raised, and Daddy Pig villainously laughs again. George runs away, screaming.*

**Daddy Pig:** FREEZE! FREEZE! FREEZE! *(laughing)* Never mind, he’ll keep. Nowww... look at this lovely new garden gnome!

*Daddy Pig puts a gnome hat on Peppa and carries her out to the front, laughing more. He places her by a bird bath.*

**Daddy Pig:** Ah, this is the perfect spot. Oh, wait a minute...

*Close up of Peppa’s hand, which is covered in purple felt pen marks.*

**Daddy Pig:** It's got a little bit of felt pen on the fingers.

*Daddy Pig puts the xylophone down and pokes Peppa in the tummy.*

**Daddy Pig:** Probably from some *mischief!* I'd better get the hose.

**Peppa:** *(muffled noises of protest)*

*Daddy Pig walks off, leaving the xylophone and mallet. Just after he does, George comes out of the bush next to Peppa.*

**Peppa:** *(muffled speech)*

*George grabs the xylophone and mallet.*

**George:** *(whispers)* Stop-freeze!

*Ding! Peppa unfreezes and takes off the hat.*

**Peppa:** Thanks, George! Daddy’s gone to get the hose! Let's go and hi-

*As Peppa attempts to take the Xylophone from George again, George dings the Xylophone and freezes Peppa again.*

**George:** Sis, you don’t take turns with me. You just take all of the turns! And it makes me feel sad. I will stop-freeze you if you swear you will let me have turns too. Blink two times if yes.

*Pause. Cut to Daddy Pig, carrying the running hose towards the front lawn.*

**Daddy Pig:** ♫ Gonna hose my dirty garden gnome, gonna hose it *good*. ♫

*George is hiding in the background. Cut to Peppa, in the same spot but now with one arm raised and the other behind her back. She glances towards Daddy Pig.*

**Daddy Pig:** Okay, time for a little bath, garden gnome!

**Peppa:** *(muffled noises of protest)*

*Behind Daddy Pig, George kinks the hose to stop the water*

**Daddy Pig:** Ooo, ya!

*Daddy Pig attempts to splash Peppa, but no water comes out the hose.*

**Daddy Pig:** Huh?

*As Daddy Pig looks directly into the hose, Peppa pulls out the mallet, revealing she was pretending to be frozen.*

**Peppa:** FREEZE!

*Ding! Daddy Pig freezes, holding the hose directly in his own face.*

**Peppa:** We tricked you! George unfroze me. I was just pretending! NOW, GEORGE!

*George unkinks the hose, causing Daddy Pig to be sprayed in the face by water and making burbling noises. Peppa and George laugh happily. A few birds watch the antics from a telephone wire as Peppa and George sit on the front stairs, watching Daddy Pig burbling as he gets sprayed. Peppa hands the xylophone and mallet over to George.*

**Peppa:** Here, George. You can unfreeze him.

**George:** Thanks, sis.

*George goes to unfreeze Daddy Pig but stops himself.*

**George:** Not just yet.

*Peppa puts an arm around George’s shoulder and the two silently giggle as Daddy Pig continues to be sprayed.*
