["New World Symphony No. 9" plays]

Leo: Music by Antonín Dvorák. The scene starts with June in her house from the morning and using her telescope.

June: Hello. I'm June. I love looking at the stars. Do you like looking at the stars? Wonderful! Come look through my telescope.

June: Isn't it spectacular? The galaxy is so sparkly.

["New World Symphony No. 9" plays from Saturn]

June: Look. It's Saturn. What a beautiful planet. It has rings. I'm dancing with Saturn.

[Music going faster]

June: The song's playing fast. Really fast. Uh-oh! That ring looks like it's coming loose. It's fell off! Oh, no! Where is it going to land? Over here little ring!

[Thump]

June: It landed in my garden. I can't find it. Do you see it? Where? You found it. Thanks.

[Ring jingling sadly and chattering]

June: I think the ring might be scared. Hello, little ring. I'm June. And this is my friend. Say hello, ring.

[Orchestra playing]

June: Ring, you're a great dancer! Whee! (Giggling) Super spin! (Giggling)

[Music continues as the rest of the team are playing as they also hear music]

Leo: Yay, June!

Quincy: Go, June!

[Music ends as June giggles]

Quincy: Hey, June, who is that you're dancing with?

June: It's a ring from the planet Saturn.

[Ring bumps on Leo, Annie and Quincy while they giggle]

[Saturn playing "New World Symphony"]

Quincy: What's that?

Annie: Listen.

June: It's the planet Saturn.

Leo: But I don't see it.

June: Do you see Saturn? Yeah, there it is. I think Saturn misses you, ring.

[Ring playing sad music]

June: Aw. Ring misses Saturn, too.

Leo: Come on, team! We've got a mission!

[Whirring]

Quincy: We can use Rocket's drum thumper.

[Ring playing glissando]

June: I promise I'll look for you in my telescope every night.

Leo: Wow. Ring has a lot of friends.

[Thump]

Quincy: Oh-no! Ring is too small! He can't fit around Saturn.

[Ring singing crescendo]

June: Look! When ring sings louder, he gets bigger.

Quincy: Yeah, but ring needs to get a lot bigger.

Leo: I know! I'll conduct Ring to sing louder. Crescendo! That will help ring grow really big.

Leo: Sing louder! Crescendo!

La la-la, la la-la

La la la la-la

[Swoop]

Leo: Uh-oh! Now he's too big! We have to help ring get smaller. When I say diminuendo, sing softer. Ready? Diminuendo.

La la-la, la la-la

La la la la-la

Leo: Even softer. Diminuendo.

La la-la, la la-la

La la la la-la
