Berrykins cheering: yay for strawberry shortcake! Our new berryfest princess!"],…}

Yay for strawberry shortcake!

(Laughs) thank you. Thank you, everyone!

But I must admit, I'm not sure what a berryfest princess does.

You've got to judge the flower show.

Don't forget the honey tasting.

Oh, I have to judge a flower show?

I'll be sure not to forget the honey, got it.

Ride the carriage in the big parade.

Ooh, ooh! And twirl the berryfest princess baton!

Really? I have to twirl the berryfest princess baton?

I'd better practice.

Plan the buffet!

Right! The buffet!

Sample the cobbler!

Cobbler...

(Berrykins all yelling tasks)

Before... After?

(Berrykins shouting)

(Overwhelmed sigh)

I'm sorry, but I still don't know what my duties are.

It's quite simple, actually.

Princess berrykin's bitty book of

Berryfest princess duties says,

"The princess shall preside over the festivities of berryfest,

Especially the parade must be the berry best."

What does that mean exactly?

It means you're responsible for getting everything ready!

Berrykins: bye strawberry!

Uh, wait please.

This is a great honor,

But I'm not sure I know how to put on a parade.

Oh, of course, how silly of me.

Here's the things to do list.

Thank you.

This doesn't look so bad.

(Gasps) oh!

Galloping grape leaves!

(Meow)

This is a lot to do, custard.

Oh, how am I going to get it all done?

Hmm, what would a leader do?

I know! She would give tasks to the members of her team!

But who's my team?

(Laughs) my friends, of course!

And you know, custard, they've already said

They want to help me!

(Purrs)

Now all I have to do is assign some of these tasks!

Hello, blueberry?

Hi, lemon!

Plum, my friend!

Would you be able to help me with the parade, please, orange?

Raspberry, could you please help me with something?

Together: we'd love to!

Oh, I knew they'd help me!

(Meow)

See you later, custard.

(Woof)

Hi, orange! I'm on my way to plan the buffet,

But I thought I'd stop by to see how the...garland is.

Huh? What are you doing?

I'm sorting these nut pieces for the squirrels.

The real nuts got mixed in with the metal nuts.

I want everything in my store organized so I can focus

On making the garland, like you asked.

Maybe sorting nuts should wait 'til after the parade?

I'd be happy to help you then.

When the box said "mixed nuts" they weren't kidding.

And just when I have so much work on my hands!

You know, that garland is berry important to the parade.

Oh no, look at the time!

I'm late to pick up the petals for my garlands!

Um, strawberry, could you watch my store for just a few minutes?

Uh, sure, orange. Go ahead.

Oh, and if you're bored, feel free to sort the nuts!

Ah, well.

(Thud)

(Plink)

Hi, strawberry! Uh, where's orange?

Oh, she just ran off on an errand.

Say, am I glad to see you, plum!

Have you finished the berrykin dance for after the parade?

Not yet, but I've decided that orange and I should perform

The "berry bitty bunny hop" during the parade!

But the berrykins have to--

Since orange isn't here,

I need you to try out some steps with me.


I'd love to help, plum,

But I'm actually in the middle of a sorting project for orange.

Oh, that's okay, you can keep sorting while you hop.

♪

Come on, strawberry!

(Laughing)

(Bunny hop music plays)

(Plink)

Now left-right-left, two, three, four!

(Plink)

(Laughing)

(Nuts plinking)

(Plink)

(Thud)

(Plum laughing)

(Gasp) do I want to know?

Plum: come on in, blueberry! We're trying out my parade dance.

What do you think?

Well, it certainly looks hoppy...

Speaking of parade, how is the parade route coming along?

It isn't. I looked everywhere

For my berry-matic writing pen with glo-flo ink.

Then I remembered somebody borrowed it.

Oops! That's right.

I think I left it in my bedroom somewhere...

I'm sure that plum is sorry, blueberry.

Well, I had to make do with a common,

Ordinary, everyday pencil,

So this just isn't as nice as I'd like it to be.

I'd like you to look over the map route

And see if it looks too long.

Uh, I'm a bit busy right now helping orange and plum.

Could you please come by the café in an hour,

And I'll look at it then?

It'll only take a second... Or a minute,

Depending on your speed reading ability.

Uh, all right.

Do I want to know?

That's what I said.

(All gasping)

Whoaaaa!

(Crash)

My nuts! My map!

My, my!

(Strawberry sighs)

I'm sorry, girls,

But I'm swamped with projects for this parade.

Perhaps I can come back later and help all of you.

Or better still, perhaps you three could help each other?

Sorry, I'm in over my head.

I have this entire map to redo, in pen!

And my dance has a hippity right where there should be a hop.

And these flowers aren't going to string themselves.

(Sighs) all right...

(Sewing machine whirring)

(Knocking)

Raspberry?

Eep!

Oh, hi, strawberry. What's going on?

Well, I know you're already helping me on the float

But would you also be able to make me a gown? Please?

(Laughs) don't be silly, of course!

I'll design it as soon as I finish these wonderful wings

For the butterfly float.

(Sighs)

At last, someone is helping me! Thank you!

Lemon: hi, strawberry! Hi, raspberry!

Oh! Hi, lemon.

Say, lemon, could I please hear the music

You picked for the parade?

That's what I came to talk to you about...

Wow, is that the butterfly wing I'll be standing next to?!

Sure is! You wanna hold it?

Of course!

Um...

(Laughs) see, a perfect match!

(Giggling and laughing)

That looks great, girls!

But could we please focus on our parade tasks?

Say, do you know

What would really make this wing spectacular?

Rhinestones! I've got a rhinestone fastener at home!

I'll just add some sparkles to this,

And it'll be much more springtime-parade-ier!

Oh, but wait! The wings are supposed to look exactly...

The same!

I'm sorry lemon decided to change your design.

Oh, no, no, no. She's so right.

They should be sparklier. Hey, you know

I'm going to add a little bit of glitter glue to my wing too.

Or maybe a lot.

Yes, sparkles would be nice, but don't we have

More important things to do right now, raspberry?

Like for the parade? (Laughs)

Oh, no! But making the wings more sparkly

Is helping the parade!

Right, then...

Maybe you and lemon could decorate the wings together.

You know, help each other. Speed things up.

Well, since you're here, you could help me!


You know, speed things up.

I apologize, raspberry, but I just can't right now.

I have a dozen unfinished things to do.

Thanks for your all your hard work on the float.

Gotta go! Bye!

(Sigh) I've tried to be a good leader, custard,

But things haven't gone well.

I assigned tasks to my friends,

And then followed up with them and motivated them.

But somehow, nothing got finished custard.

Uh... Custard?

(Meow)

(Chuckles) that's exactly right. You got distracted by something,

And so did my friends. It's easy to do.

I just wish they could be more helpful to each other.

It seems like everybody is so stressed.

And I don't know how I'm supposed to do

Each and every thing on this list,

Right down to the last task!

Huh?

What's this, custard? Oh, did you find something?

Oh, it's the very last task.

Oh no, not another one!

It says, "I wrote this so fast, I put this task last,

But it's rule number one, make the parade fun!"

Pfft. Everyone knows that.

No, wait!

That's what I'm doing wrong.

I've assigned so many tasks,

That no one is having fun!

Hmm...maybe I'm expecting too much of everyone.

From now on, I'll just have to work harder!

Plan menu, hmm...check.

Baton twirling...

(Grunting) working on it!

Orange: strawberry!

I know it's getting late,

But this is all the garland I've gotten done so far!

Oh, that's fine, orange. Don't worry.

Leave this here, and I'll take care of the rest.

Thank you berry much!

Oh, and orange? Keep smiling.

Uh, okay!

(Sighs)

Look, strawberry, I changed the parade route again.

I like this one much better.

(Berrykins struggling)

Ooph!

What do you think?

Oh, just one second, blueberry.

Uh...

(Gasps) hmm?

Wait, these posts are in the wrong place!

That's the old route. This is the new route.

If I'd gotten your map sooner, blueberry,

We could have changed things.

But no time now. We'll have to go with your old route.

But I did this one in ink!

Oh, don't be upset. I'll try and move the posts.

I want you to be happy!

Hey, blueberry, check out my bunny hop!

I made it way better.

(Music plays)

That's the fifth time you've "made it better," plum.

Raspberry: hey strawberry, which of our wings looks prettier?

(Laughs) girls, this is a parade,

Not a competition. It's supposed to be fun.

They both look fine.

See, she likes mine best!

Uh-uh! Not in a billion, trillion years.

(Struggling) whoa!

(Crash)

Look, strawberry, I had to make more garland

Because blueberry tells me the parade route is now longer.

What are we supposed to decorate with that? A shoebox?

At least I'm doing something useful.

Um, could somebody help me, please?

Dancing is useful.

Not when it's too hard to do.

I can't possibly learn your new "double-hoppity" in time.

It isn't my fault that lemon took so long choosing the music.

Hey, you're hopping on my map!

Huh?

Whoa!

Would you mind keeping that thing out of my face?

Raspberry: yours is a monstrosity.

Blueberry: my map is ruined!

Orange: hopping is silly.

Lemon: you're lucky all you have to do is garlands.

Plum: oh, no! This is no fun.

All together: so there!

Somebody...?


(Sighs)

(Meow)

I gave them so much work,

They've forgotten how to be nice to one another.

Well, at least one of them has come back to help me.

Strawberry, I'm not good with a needle and thread,

And this needs some beads.

I'll be back in minutes to pick it up. Gotta go!

So behind on the music!

(Wind blowing)

(Gasp) galloping gooseberries!

Whoa!

(Screaming)

(Gasps)

Whoa-whoa-whoahh!

Huh?

(Landing) oh!

Hello? Anybody?

(Berrykins chattering)

Why hasn't the parade started?

No princess! She can't be found.

(Panting) have you seen strawberry?

No, but I found her baton in the café!

She's not in any of the shops!

And we've looked everywhere.

What if she quit?

Why would anyone give up being the berryfest princess?

Well, she did mention having a lot of tasks.

Well, I did my task!

Sort of.

Yeah, I kinda let her down too, I guess.

She asked me to do just one little thing,

And I just kept asking her to help me...

And I didn't even say please.

Girls, I think we all got so wrapped up

In our little projects and what we needed, that we didn't

Even pay attention to what strawberry needed.

(Sniffling)

No wonder she took off. If I was her, I'd quit, too.

I was so selfish.

She kept asking us to help each other,

And instead we were just...

Rude to each other.

I was mean.

And she only asked us to do one little thing.

And I messed it up with my rhinestones.

No, no, it was all me with my silly glitter,

Trying to have the best wing.

Why didn't we just help each other out like she asked?

(Crying)

Here, please take my hankie.

(Blowing nose)

Thank you.

We're all to blame.

And after strawberry worked so hard.

(Sobbing) what a great leader.

Never complained.

Always polite.

Heart of gold.

And she cared so much about us having fun.

And now she's left us!

All together: waaaaaaaaaah!

(All crying)

Strawberry: can someone help me down?

I can still hear her pleading voice in my memory...

Strawberry: please!

Wait, that voice is real!

Lemon: look! Up there!

(Girls all gasp)

Hey! Over here!

Whoa! We've just got to save her!

Come on, everyone!

Grab that garland, please!

Ooh! I'll take this wing!

Follow me! I'll pick a route through the daisies!

(Giggles)

Uh...what's so funny, strawberry?

I'll tell you when we get down.

Grab and pull please!

All: gather round!

Lemon: grab and pull please,

All: pull her down.

Lemon: grab and pull,

All: to the ground.

Lemon: grab and pull,

All: safe and sound!

Everyone: yay!

(Everyone cheering)

Now why were you grinning up there, strawberry?

(Laughs) well, high on that branch,

I watched you all march here to my rescue.

(Chuckle) I wish you could have seen it...

Strawberry: marching and singing and carrying garlands.

It looked like a lot of fun.

It was a lot of fun...

Once we worked together and were nice to each other.

Girls, I was worried for a minute we wouldn't have


A parade, but you just gave me the best parade ever!

We did?? We did!

(All shouting for joy)

No, no. Let's be clear about this.

Strawberry, it was you who made this parade happen.

You never gave up, even when no one was helpful

And we all thank you from the berry bottom of our hearts.

Aww. You're making me feel like a real princess!
