The Christmas Wish/Transcript

June: Art by… Vincent van Gogh.

Annie: And…

["Für Elise" playing]

Leo: Music by Ludwig van Beethoven. The Scene starts at the Rocket Room for reading a Christmas story.

Leo: Hi! I'm Leo. It's Christmas Eve. And I'm going to read my favorite Christmas Story! Do you want to hear it? Great!

[He starts reading]

Leo: 'Twas Christmas Eve, and one little boy hoped more than anything in the world that Santa would bring him a turtle. That night, Santa came to his house and brought the little boy a present, a Christmas wish box.

[Wish box playing glissando]

Leo: But when the little boy opened the box, it was empty.

Annie: Oh, no! There's no present in the box.

Leo: Just wait. The story's not over yet.

[Goes back to the story]

Leo: The little boy's mother told him, "Santa brought you a wish box. You have to make a wish to get your present."

[Page turns]

Leo: So, the little boy picked up the wish box, closed his eyes, and wish as hard as he could for a turtle.

Little Boy: Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

[Wish box playing glissando]

Leo: And this time, the box magically opened, and there was something inside. What do you think it was? A turtle! Yes! Santa made the little boy's wish come true.

Quincy: Whoo-hoo!

June: Yay!

Annie: Yay!

Annie: What a great story.

Leo: If you had a wish box, what do you wish for? Cool. I'd want that, too.

[Sleigh bells jingling]

June: I hear something.

Annie: Who do you think is making that noise? Santa Claus and his reindeer? Yeah! You're right.

[Four wish boxes appear under the tree; one for each of the team except Annie]

[Wish boxes playing glissando]

Annie: Look what Santa brought! Christmas wish boxes!

Leo: Quincy got a wish box.

Quincy: Awesome.

Leo: And June got a wish box.

June: I'm so excited.

Leo: Here's a wish box for Rocket.

[Rocket jingling]

Leo: Oh. And here's a wish box for me.

Quincy: Now we can wish for anything we want in the whole world.

[But…]

Leo: Wait. There were only four wish boxes under the tree. Someone didn't get a Christmas wish box from Santa. Who didn't get a wish box? Yeah, my little sister Annie didn't get a wish box.

June: That has to be a mistake. Annie must have gotten a wish box. She's been really good this year.

Quincy: Her wish box have fallen off Santa's sleigh.

Leo: Don't worry, Annie.

Leo: We're going to get your Christmas wish box. I promise.

Annie: Do you really think we can?

Leo: I know we can. You'll help me find Annie's wish box, right? Great! We've got a mission!

[Baton jingles]

Leo: We're going to get Annie's Christmas wish box! To Rocket!

Quincy: All right!

June: Let's do it.

Leo: Come on!

[Door closes]

Leo: Welcome aboard. Buckle your seatbelts.

All except Leo: Seatbelts buckled!

Leo: Prepare for blast off! We're going to need a lot of power to blast off. Pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat.

[Rocket revving]

Leo: June is patting. Quincy's patting. Annie's patting.

[Annie giggling]

Leo: But we need more power! Put your hands on your lap and pat with us. Pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat. Faster! Pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat!

[Rocket revving]

Leo: Now raise your arms as high as you can and say blast off!

All: Blast off!

Annie: Hold on tight, 'cause here we go!

All: Whoa!!

Leo: Come on! Let's find Annie's wish box.

Quincy: But it could be anywhere. How will we find it?

[Rocket revving]

June: I think Rocket has an idea.

[Grab Nabber deploys]

Leo: He's taking out his wish box.

Annie: Rocket's going to make a wish, just like the boy in the story!

[Rocket jingling "Für Elise"]

Annie: Rocket is singing the Christmas wish song! Let's help him. Sing with me!

Annie: Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

[Wish box playing glissando]

Annie: It's working! I wonder what Rocket wished for.

[Rocket's gift is revealed]

Quincy: It's a new gadget.

Annie: Wow!

Quincy: Cool!

Leo: It's a wish finder!

June: Rocket used his wish to help you. The wish finder can help us find your wish box.

Annie: Thank you, Rocket!

Rocket: [Jingles]

Leo: Remember, a wish box sounds like this.

[Wish box playing glissando]

Leo: Let's see if we can hear the wish box.

Quincy: Hey, that's Lincoln Center in New York City.

Leo: Does that sound like a wish box? No. The wish box isn't in New York. Let's try somewhere else.

June: That's the Champs-Élysées in Paris, France.

Leo: Does that sound like the wish box? No. So we know it's not in Paris. Let's listen someplace else.

Annie: Those are the Himalayan Mountains in Nepal.

[Wish box playing glissando]

Leo: Does that sound like the wish box? Yes, that's it. I hear it, too.

[Wish finder beeping]

Leo: And look! The arrow on the wish finder is moving closer to the picture.

Annie: That must be where my wish box fell. In Nepal!

Quincy: Hurry, Rocket! We have to get to the Himalayan Mountains in Nepal.

All: Whoa!

Annie: Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

Wish, I wish, a Christmas wish

Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

Wish, I wish, a Christmas wish

[Wish finder beeping]

Annie: Look, look, look! The arrow moved again. My wish box must be at the top of that mountain.

Quincy: Whoa! That's Mount Everest.

June: Uh-oh.

Leo: What's wrong, June?

June: Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world. It's almost impossible to get to the top.

Leo: Well, we need to try. Annie has to get her Christmas wish box. Then she can wish for anything she want.

Quincy: Uh-oh. Those toy soldiers are in our way!

[Soldiers drumming]

Leo: They're blocking the path up Mount Everest!

June: How are we going to get to Annie's wish box?

[Soldiers drumming]

Quincy: I have an idea how we can get past them.

[He takes out his wish box]

Quincy: I need you to help me make my wish come true. Sing the wish song with me. Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

[Wish box playing glissando]

Quincy: I got my wish!

[His gift is revealed]

Quincy: A toy soldier drum! We can use it to get past those toy soldiers.

[Soldiers drumming]

Quincy: They have a special toy soldier drum rhythm.

[Soldiers drumming]

Quincy: We have to drum the toy soldiers' rhythm to get by. Will you drum with me? Great. It goes like this.

[Drums the same rhythm as the soldiers]

Quincy: Can you drum that rhythm on your lap?

[Drumming]

Quincy: it's working! Drum the rhythm.

[Drumming continues]

Quincy: One more time!

[Soldiers drumming]

Quincy: Whoo-hoo!

Quincy: We did it!

Quincy: You were great!

Annie: Thank you, Quincy.

Annie: That was very brave.

Quincy: You're welcome, Annie.

Quincy: It was nothing.

Quincy: Merry Christmas, toy soldiers.

June: Look at the wish finder.

June: The arrow is moving closer.

Leo: And the music is getting louder.

Annie: We must be getting closer to my wish box.

Annie: Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

Wish, I wish a Christmas wish.

All: Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

Wish, I wish a Christmas wish.

June: Rocket, look out!

Quincy: I cannot believe there are candy canes in our way!

Annie: What do we do?

Annie: Rocket can't get through all these candy canes.

Annie: There isn't enough room.

June: Don't worry. I've got a plan.

[She takes out her wish box]

June: I can use my wish. Sing with me! Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

[Wish box playing glissando]

June: Perfect!

[Her gift is revealed]

June: I got ballet boots! Just what I wished for. Ballet boots will help me dance in the snow!

Quincy: But, June, how is that going to help us get past the candy canes?

June: Watch. You'll see.

["Für Elise" playing as June jumps on the candy canes, stomping them back into the ground]

Annie: Yay, June!

Leo: She's super dancing!

Quincy: Look at her go!

[Candy canes popping up]

June: Uh-oh. There are lots more candy canes coming up. I'm going to need your help to ballet dance to the beat.

June: Like this. [Tapping]

June: Can you tap your toes to the beat?

June: Lovely.

June: Here we go.

June: Tap with me.

June: Uh-oh.

June: They're getting bigger.

June: Tap harder!

Quincy: Whoo-hoo!

Leo: You were great!

Quincy: That was cool!

Annie: June, you used your wish to help me get my wish.

Annie: Thank you.

Leo: Look.

Leo: The arrow is moving.

Quincy: We're getting closer to Annie's wish box.

June: Uh-oh. The sun is going down over Mount Everest. Look!

Quincy: It's too dark to see where we're going.

June: We can't find Annie's wish box in the dark.

Leo: Maybe we don't have to. There's still one person who hasn't made a wish yet: Me!

[He takes out his wish box]

Leo: Come on! Help me sing the Christmas wish song. Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

[Wish box playing glissando]

Leo: It worked! I got my wish!

June: What is it, Leo?

Quincy: Yeah, what did you wish for?

[His gift is revealed]

Leo: It's a new super bright light for my baton!

Quincy: Wow! That is bright.

Leo: I've got a plan!

Annie: Leo, be careful! It's dangerous out there!

Leo: Don't worry. I know what I'm doing. But I'm going to need your help. I need you to help me conduct. Move your arm in a triangle with the music, like me.

Leo: That's it!

Leo: You're doing it!

Leo: Keep conducting.

Leo: We're making a starry night.

Annie: Yay, Leo!

June: You're our hero!

Leo: Follow me, Rocket.

Quincy: Go, Leo!

Quincy: Go, go, go!

Annie: The wish finder.

June: The arrow is almost touching the wish box.

Quincy: Annie's wish box must be close.

[Wish box playing glissando]

Leo: I can hear it!

Annie: Can you find my wish box?

Annie: Where is it?

Annie: You found it!

Leo: Uh-oh.

Leo: It looks like the wish box is about to fall off that peak.

June: Oh-no!

Quincy: It's going to fall off Mount Everest!

Annie: I have to try to get it.

Quincy: Go Annie.

Leo: You can do it!

Annie: Uh-oh! Do you think I should try one more time? Okay. Here I go.

[She catches it]

Leo: She got it!

Quincy: Yay, Annie!

June: You did it!

Quincy: Annie, that was amazing.

Leo: We're so proud of you.

Annie: But I couldn't have done it without all of you. You all used your wishes just to help me.

Leo: Well, Annie. Now it's your turn to make a wish.

Quincy: Yeah, go for it.

June: You can wish for anything in the whole world.

Leo: Annie, you're a super singer. Sing the Christmas wish song so your wish comes true.

Annie: Sing with me, okay?

Annie: Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

Wish, I Wish a Christmas wish.

Wish, I Wish, I Wish A Christmas Wish!

Wish, I Wish a Christmas wish.

Annie: Thanks.

[Wish box playing glissando]

Quincy: Let's see what you wished for.

June: Let's see.

[They all peer inside the box; Leo, June and Quincy are confused, but Annie smiles; for some reason there isn't anything in it]

June: It's empty.

Leo: Oh, no! Annie, your wish didn't come true!

Annie: Uh, uh! My Christmas wish did come true.

June: Huh?!

Annie: I wished that I could be with all my friends on Christmas, and here you are! June is here, Quincy is here, Rocket is here, My big brother, Leo, is here, and you're here!

Leo: Annie, that's the best Christmas present anyone you could wish for.

[Sleigh bells jingling]

Leo: Who's making that sound? It's Santa? Can you find Santa's sleigh?

[Sleigh bells jingling]

Leo: Yeah! There he is!

Annie: Let's wave to him. Wave to Santa! Hi, Santa!

June: Hello!

Quincy: Merry Christmas!

[Sleigh bells jingling]

Leo: Mission completion!

[Baton jingles] Leo: It's time for… the curtain call!

[Crowd cheering]

Leo: Let's clap for our team! Clap with us! Let's clap for Annie! Quincy! June!

Others: Leo!

All: Rocket!

[Rocket jingling]

June: Let's clap for the art! Clap for "The Starry Night" by Vincent van Gogh!

Leo: And now, the moment you've all been waiting for: Let's clap really, really hard for the special music we've heard today!

["Für Elise" playing]

Leo: "Für Elise" by Ludwig van Beethoven!

All: Yay, Beethoven!

June: You've helped a lot today.

Quincy: Give yourself a hand. Go on, clap for yourself!

June: Bravo! Bravo!

Annie: Yay for you!

Leo: See you on the next mission!

[A Christmas wish present came and it plays glissando on the stage]

All: Ooh!
