[GASPS]

Emmy, Max.

How long
have you been there?

Long enough to know
you sing great.

I didn'’t think anybody else
was here.

Oh, I'’m so embarrassed.

You shouldn'’t be, Cassie.

You have a beautiful voice.

Oh.

Well, that'’s nice of you to say,
but--

ORD:
Max. Emmy. Cassie.

Come quick.

Quetzal'’s about to make
a big announcement.

He'’s going to tell us
all about the new school play.

It'’s going to have singing
and dancing and acting.

And we can try out
to be in the play.

Or we can help build things
for the play.

Or we can just sit
and watch the play.

And eat dragoncorn.

[CHUCKLES][QUETZAL CHUCKLES]

Well, there'’s really not
much left for me to announce.

Ord has said it all
and then some.

The play is indeed
a musical.

It'’s called
All Hail, Queen Dragonia.

And we'’ll need someone
to play a king,

a prince and a princess.

[EXCITED CHATTER]

And of course,
a very good singer

to play Queen Dragonia.

And anyone who wants to try out
should come and see me.

Cassie, you should definitely
try out.

Oh.

I'’d love to,

but I'’m too scared to sing
in front of anybody.

I'’m happy just helping build
the sets and props for the play

like I always do.

[♪♪]

Queen Dragonia'’s throne'’s
gonna look beautiful.

Don'’t you think, Cassie?

Huh?

Yeah, I guess.

Hey.

Sorry, Max.

My mind'’s on something else.

I keep thinking about
how much fun it would be

to be in the play

and sit
on this beautiful throne.

If you wanna be in the play,

then you should go talk
to Quetzal.

Right away.

All right, I will.

Cassie, what part
do you wanna play?

Queen Dragonia.

[♪♪]

I'’m very proud of you,
Cassie.

Only one other person
is trying out

to play this big part.

Please have a song ready
for the audition.

A song? Okay.

And a dance of some kind.

Dance?

Uh...

Okay.

And here'’s a copy
of the play.

Please learn a short scene

so I can see how you would act
in the part of Queen Dragonia.

Oh, okay.

Phew. I'’m glad that'’s over.

But now I have to get up
in front of Quetzal and try out.

Not only do I have to sing,
I have to dance and act too.

I think the best thing to do

is practice
in front of your friends.

Zak and Wheezie can help
with your singing,

and I'’ve taken
dance lessons.

And Ord and I can help
with your acting.

I'’m a great actor.

Have you seen me act
like a train?

[IMITATING TRAIN
WHISTLING AND CHUGGING]

[♪♪]

Before you sing,

you should always warm up
your voice.

He'’s right.

Uh...

Okay, you sit with the others
and watch me.

Perfect.
I wanna sit in front.

I wanna sit in back.Front.

Back.Front.

Back.

[♪♪]

You two want
some dragoncorn?

[CASSIE CLEARS THROAT]Huh?

Oh, this is too hard.

It felt like you were all
staring at me.

We were.

That'’s the way it'’s gonna be
during the play.

Yeah, everybody'’s
going to be looking at you.

They'’ll never take their eyes
off you,

except maybe to get
some more dragoncorn.

But when they come back,

they'’ll all be looking at you
again.

[GASPS]
Oh!

I don'’t think
I can do this.

Cassie, you wanna be
in the play, don'’t you?

Yes.

Remember,

everyone in Dragon Land
is your friend.

They want you
to do really well,

so just relax.

You'’re right.

Maybe I should take
a few deep breaths first.

Phew. That'’s better.

How about we practice
my acting?

You have to say the words
exactly like they'’re written.

Okay.

For my tryout,

I think I'’ll perform
this line from the play.

"I am happy
you believe in me,

"but to be a good queen,
I must believe in myself.

"I'’m happy you believe in me,

but to be a good queen,
I must believe in myself."

Oh, okay.

I'’m ready.

All hail, Queen Dragonia.

New ruler of our land.

[ALL CHEERING]

Thank you, thank you.

I am happy you--

Uh...

Uh, um...

Believe.

Believe. In, uh...

Me.Believe in Ord.

"Believe in me."

Believe in Ord.

No.

No, believe in yourself.

I believe
I'’d better start over.

[CLEARS THROAT]

I am happy
you believe in me,

but to be a good queen,

I must believe in--

Uh... uh...

Myself.

I mean, you.

Oh, that was terrible.

I'’m just too scared to do it
in front of all of you.

How will I ever do it
on stage

in front of everyone
in Dragon Land?

You'’re getting better, Cassie.
Really.

And the more you practice
in front of us,

the more comfortable
you'’ll become.

Okay.

Let'’s keep practicing.

[♪♪]

I love practicing
to be in the audience.

Me too.

I am happy
you believe in me,

but to be a good queen,
I must believe in myself.

[ALL CHEERING]

Hey. She did it.

Let'’s celebrate
by having some dragoncorn.

[CHUCKLING]

We better move on
to dancing.

[♪♪]

[PANTING]

Okay, Cassie. Your turn.

Well, you started out great.

[CHUCKLES]

But as soon as you noticed us
watching you,

you got scared.

I have to remember
you'’re all my friends,

and you just want to see me
having a good time.

Definitely.

[♪♪]

[ALL CHEERING]

You were great.

I think I'’m ready
for my tryout.

[♪♪]

I am, uh, happy
you believe in me,

but to be a good queen,
I must believe in myself.

♪ And they almost carried me
Away ♪

Muy bien,Cassie.

You were having so much fun
up there,

I couldn'’t help
but have fun watching you.

[♪♪]

QUETZAL:
Well, my little niños,

this was a very difficult
decision

because everyone did
such a good job.

But I had to choose,

and the part of Queen Dragonia
will be played by...

[♪♪]

Flora.

Yay.

[LAUGHS]

Oh.

The king will be played
by Lorca.

[LAUGHING]

I'’m sorry, Cassie.

QUETZAL:
The prince will be played
by Bobolini.

Zaky and I
are double sorry.

Thanks, Wheezie.

But you know something?

It'’s all right.

I had a lot of fun
practicing,

even though I didn'’t get
the part.

QUETZAL:
And the princess

will be played by Cassie.

EMMY:
You did it. You'’re in the play.

ZAK:
Good job.

I sure am glad
I didn'’t give up.

ORD:
Cassie, look.

Your dragon badge
is glowing.

BOTH:
I wish, I wish

To use this rhyme

To go back home
Until next time

[♪♪]

Hey, Max. Would you like
to go see a play on Broadway?

Where'’s Broadway?

[GIGGLES]

In the living room.

Whoa, that'’s far.

Better take the train.

[IMITATING TRAIN
WHISTLING AND CHUGGING]

[LAUGHS]

[♪♪]

I love going
to Uncle Roberto'’s house.

My favorite part was rolling
in that big pile of leaves.

Looks like
you brought one home, Max.

Hm?

Hey, what are you doing
with that?

EMMY:
We'’ll keep this here

to remind us of Uncle Roberto
until the next time we visit.

Great idea, Emmy.

Look, Max,
the dragons are calling us.

Let'’s go.

[♪♪]

BOTH:
I wish, I wish

With all my heart

To fly with dragon
In a land apart

[♪♪]

Max, Emmy.

[MAX GRUNTING]

Too tight.

Oops, sorry.

CASSIE:
Hi.

EMMY:
Hello, everybody.

Hey, what'’s all this stuff?

We'’ve been doing arts.

And crafty-wafties.

Emmy,
I made you a hair ribbon.

A few more sparklies
and it'’ll be finished.

It'’s beautiful, Cassie.
Thank you.

I made you something too,
Max.

Really? What?

"What" is the word
I would'’ve used too.

I call it a twirly-whirly.

Thanks, Ord.

I think it'’s the best
twirly-whirly I'’ve ever seen.

[RUMBLING]
Oh.

It even makes
a funny noise.

That'’s not the twirly-whirly.
That'’s Ord'’s stomach.

[CACKLING]

Doing all these arts and crafts
made me hungry.

Snack time.

[POPPING]

[CHUCKLES]

CASSIE:
Look.

Rhyming birds.

[♪♪]

You can share
my dragoncorn.

It'’s yum-yum.

Yum. Hum. Some.

It'’s a whole family
of rhyming birds.

There'’s a daddy bird
and a mommy bird.

And lots
of little baby birds.

Treat. Neat. Sweet.

I think he'’s saying thank you
for the treat.

You'’re welcome.

Bye-bye,
little rhyming birds.

Bye-bye.

Bye.

Why.

Hi.

Why, hi to you too.

Too. Do. New.

[LAUGHING]

Look. Emmy has one
of those baby rhyming birds.

She really likes you, Emmy.

Isn'’t she just
a little cutie pie?

Hey, that'’s a good name
for you.

Hi. My. Cutie Pie.

I don'’t think that little bird
is supposed to be here, Emmy.

She should be
with her family.

Where'’d they go?

Maybe we should go look
for them.

I'’ll stay here with Cutie Pie
in case the others come back.

Hey, wait up.

I mean...

Hey. Stay. Play.

Play. Day. Yay.

[GIGGLES]

[GIGGLES]

This is fun.

Fun. Sun. Run.

[♪♪]

[GASPS]Run. Done. Won.

[♪♪]

I think the rhyming birds
flew thataway.

Or was it thisaway?

They'’re not over here.

Not this way either.

Nothing.

Nada.

Do you like the ribbon
in my hair?

Hair. Wear. Share.

Share. Pair. Care.

Emmy, we couldn'’t find the other
rhyming birds anywhere.

Then I guess Cutie Pie
better stay with me.

You mean, you wanna
keep Cutie Pie as a pet?

Definitely.

[♪♪]

[LAUGHING]

Uh, I don'’t think
that'’s such a good idea, Emmy.

Where would she live
and sleep?

Max and I have a playroom.
I can keep her in there.

We'’re not allowed to have pets
in the house, Emmy.

Remember?

That'’s right.

I know.

Birds like trees,

so I'’ll take her
to the tree house.

Uh...Hm...

Uh... Well...

Please?

This little bird and I
belong together.

She'’s my little Cutie Pie.

Okay.I guess.

All right. I suppose.Okay.

EMMY:
See? It'’s just perfect.

Here'’s your new bed,
Cutie Pie.

Isn'’t that fluffy,
wuffy, puffy?

Puffy. Roughy. Stuffy.

[♪♪]

Cutie Pie is looking
for a way out.

I guess she doesn'’t like
the tree house much.

I bet she'’d wanna stay here
if there were toys she liked.

Max, may I borrow
your twirly-whirly?

Okay.

Look, Cutie Pie.

Twirly. Whirly. Swirly.

It doesn'’t seem
like Cutie Pie'’s very happy

being cooped up
in here, Emmy.

You'’re right.

She doesn'’t even wanna rhyme
now.

[GASPS]

I guess Cutie Pie needed
more room to fly.

[SIGHS]

How can I take care of her

if she doesn'’t wanna live
in the tree house?

Maybe if I talk to Quetzal.
He can help.

Hola, niños.

ZAK: Hola, Quetzal.CASSIE: Hi, Quetzal.

What a sweet
baby rhyming bird.

Her name is Cutie Pie.

Emmy'’s been
taking care of her.

Since her family flew away.

That'’s very nice of you,
Emmy.

Quetzal, um...

I really want Cutie Pie
to be my pet,

but I can'’t take her home,

and she didn'’t wanna stay
in the tree house.

What should I do?

I can tell you care
about this bird very much.

Oh, I do. I do.

But if you keep Cutie Pie
as a pet,

she might not be able
to see her family anymore,

at least not as often,
right?

I guess.

I think that would make
Cutie Pie very unhappy.

But she'’d be with me.

And I'’d give her lots of love
and attention and--

I know you would, Emmy.

But how would you feel

if you couldn'’t be
with your family?

Oh, Quetzal, I would be sad.

I suppose...

Mm-hm?

I suppose
I should help Cutie Pie

find her family.

I know it will be hard
for you

to say goodbye
to your little friend.

This is very brave of you, Emmy.

I'’ll go with you.

Me too.

We'’ll all go.

You betcha.

But how will we find them?

We already looked once.

This time of year,

the rhyming birds fly south
into Very Merry Valley.

I suspect
that'’s where you will find them.

You and Cutie Pie
can ride with me, Emmy.

Goodbye, niños.

And good luck.

[♪♪]

Hey.

WHEEZIE:
There it is.

Very Merry Valley
straight ahead.

[♪♪]

Wow, this place
really is very merry.

Merry. Prairie. Very.

Oh. A cheesy puff bush.

No wonder the rhyming birds
like it here.

We'’ll find your family soon.

They'’re probably very close.

Look, Cutie Pie wants
to take a bath

so she could be nice
and clean for her family.

For a little bird,
she makes a big splash.

[CACKLING]

Splash. Crash. Dash.

Oh, I'’m just gonna miss you
so much

playing and making rhymes.

We'’ll make up rhymes
with you, Emmy.

To remind you of Cutie Pie.

We can even make some up
right now.

Really? You would?

Would. Should. Could.

I have one.

Dragonberry.

Dragon fairy.

Uh...

And another dragonberry.

[LAUGHING]

ZAK:
Look, the Dingaling Flowers
are ringing.

Ringing. Dinging.

Singing!

You don'’t have to yell.

Uh...

Yell. Bell. Swell.

Those are really great
rhymes.

Thanks, everyone.

RHYMING BIRD:
One. Fun. Run.

That sounded
like a rhyming bird.

And it came from over there.

[♪♪]

Cutie Pie belongs
with her family,

but, uh, it makes me sad
to say goodbye.

I know.

Huh?

What are you doing?

Cutie Pie wants you
to stay with her.

Oh, Cutie Pie,
I can'’t live here with you.

I have my own family.

[♪♪]

Hey, Emmy, now that you know
where the rhyming birds live,

you can visit Cutie Pie
in Very Merry Valley anytime.

That'’s right. I can.

I'’ll come back soon
to visit.

[SQUEAKS]

Why don'’t you keep my ribbon
to help remember me?

Bye. My. Pie.

Pie. Sigh. Bye.

Now you have something
to take home

to remind you
of cutie Pie too.

BOTH:
I wish, I wish

To use this rhyme

To go back home
Until next time

We'’ll go see Cutie Pie again
real soon, Emmy.

Promise.

Thanks, Max.

Until then,
I'’ll put this feather right here

to remind me of my friend.

Friend. Pretend. End.
