INT. TOON PARK - DAY

*[Robert. Micheal, Rosie, Block, and Alvey are all on the merry-go-round. Block is spinning it.]*

Block: "You guys ready to go FAST?"

Alvey: "Y-yeah. Just not too fast, Block."

Robert: "Spin it faster, Block! I wanna feel like Sonic!!"

Alvey: "Robert! No!"

Block: "Okay! Here we go!"

*[Alvey signals no with his hands in fear, as Block spins the merry-go-round.]*

Rosie: "Weeee!! This is fun!"

Micheal: "Yeaahh!!"

Robert: *[Laughs]* "Block, spin faster! Go faster!"

Alvey: "No, no!!"

Block: "Oookayy!!"

[Block uses all his strength to spin the merry-go-round. The kids are having fun, except for Alvey who is close to puking. Block spins it even more fast. He spins it so fast, that Robert accidently lets go, and is flung into the air.]

Robert: "WOAHH!!"

The Kids: "Ahh! Robert!!"

[Block quickly stops the merry-go-round, as he runs near the forest with Rosie and Micheal. Alvey is following them at a slow pace, and his face is green.]

Alvey: "I'm coming guys.. I-" [Pukes] "Eww.."

[They go into the forest, looking around for Robert.]

Block: "Robert! Buddy! Where are you??"

Rosie: "Robbie!!"

Micheal: "Robert!!"

[They continue calling out for him, until they hear a rustling sound from above. Robert's head pokes out of the tree.]

Block: "Robert! There you are!"

Robert: "Hey, guys! Heheh.. funny story- but I'm kind of in a... pickle here.."

Rosie: "A pickle?"

Micheal: "An expression for trouble."

Block: "Well obviously! You're stuck in tree!"

Robert: "Yeah, yeah. But it's not just the tree.."

[A snake who has her body wrapped around Robert comes out, hissing at them. Robert is grinning nervously and sweating.]

Snake: "What do you brats want??"

Block: "Uh.. we would like our friend back please?"

Rosie: "Yeah! The kid you're holding?"

Snake: "Oh? This kid?" [The kids nod.] "Ohh.. well that's too bad! Because it's lunchtime!"

Robert: "Ooh! Good, i'm hungry! What do you have??"

Snake: "You."

Robert: "I never had that before!"

Alvey: "Robert! She's gonna eat you!"

Robert: "No she won't. Snakes don't eat kids like us! Right??"

Snake: [Groans in annoyance] "Let's just get this over with."

[The snake opens her mouth big, showing all her sharp teeth, coming closer to Robert. Robert shivers in fear, as he sweats. That's until he suddenly starts to gag. The snake closes her mouth and looks at Robert confused. Suddenly, Robert burps out a large ray of fire, as the snake drops him and slithers away. Robert falls on his bottom, holding his head. His friends run to him.]

Block: "Robert, are you okay?" [Helps him up]

Robert: [Smiles] "I'm fine guys. Thanks."

[They all smile and hug Robert. Rosie sniffs something.]

Rosie: "Uh, guys? Is it just me, or is something burning??"

Robert: "Maybe the snake is making dinner!"

Block: "No, dummy! The fire! It's spreading to the other trees!"

Robert: [Eyes widen in fear] "No! No, no, no.. the poor animals! Except for that snake lady.."

Rosie: 'What do we do??"

Alvey: "We go home!" [Gage and pukes]

Rosie: "Eww..."

Block: "No, no. We have to do something.."

Micheal: "Uh, guys. The more talking you do, the more fire grows!"

[The fire is spreading quickly and getting bigger.]

Robert: [Points dramatically, and puts hands on hips] "To the castle, guys! I've got a plan!" [Trips] "Oof!"

INT. THE COLORS CASLTE - ROBERT'S ROOM

Block: "So, what's the plan, Robert?"

Robert: "Okay guys. We should become firefighters!"

Rosie: "Firefighters?? Aren't we too little??"

Robert: "No, not at all! We can be little firefighters!"

Alvey: "Um.. do.. do firefighters actually punch the fire??"

Block: "No, they put the fire out with water, dummy."

Alvey: "Oh.. hehehe."

Robert: [Smiles proudly and laughs] "Who's with me??"

[They all agree and clap.]

Robert: "But before we fight fires, we need some equipment.."

[An instrumental montage is shown of the kids gathering supplies. Block grabs a water hose and pulls it out of a wall. He hooks it into his electric car, and then paints it red. He wipes his forehead and smiles. Robert is shown wearing a red suit with a belt. He then paints two lines on his cheek. It shows him looking confident holding a water gun. The music slows as Rosie is shown walking towards Danny, who is riding around on a trike, singing.]

Danny: ♫ I really like my trike. My itty-bitty bike. Watch me ride through the grass. Try to follow me, all around the tree, I hope I don't go-♫

Rosie: "Hey, uh.. I don't mean to interrupt your song but could.. could I borrow that trike of yours??"

Danny: "My trike??"

Rosie: "Yeah.."

Danny: "My super special trike? My trike I had since I was 2??"

[Rosie nods nervously. Danny stares at her with a bland expression, as he looks away and closes his eyes.]

Danny: "Sorry, but I'll pass. Bye!" [Strolls away, still singing.] ♫ Roly roly poly rolling on the ground, silly fuzzy wuzzy I chase you all around. ♫ [Rosie looks expressionless as she sighs.]

Rosie: "Well, guess i have to try the hard way now.." [Takes out a hammer and walks towards Danny off-screen. Danny yelps as Rosie is now riding the trike. Danny is rubbing his head with an angry look on his face as he walks away. Lastly, Micheal puts on a red hat.]

Robert: "Okay, guys! We are ready to start fighting fires!"

[The kids cheer as Rosie comes in with the trike.]

Micheal: "Oh, Rosie. Isn't.. isn't that Danny's trike??"

Rosie: "Uh.. uh.. yeah. But- he let me use it!"

Micheal: "Oh.. okayy..?"

Robert: "Well, looks like we are all ready! Let's go team!"

[They all cheer and run but are stopped by Arion.]

Arion: "What are you kids doing?"

Robert: "Uh,.. we're playing pretend! Pretend firefighters!"

Arion: "Pretend? So there's no real fires, huh?" [In the background, a burning tree falls over from the forest.] "Well, as long as you guys don't hurt yourself.." [Goes inside]

Robert: "We won't! Let's go guys!"
