(Tuba plays loudly)

Huh?

(Band playing loudly)

Uh...

(Playing out of tune)

Um...good mor-

(Loudly) good morning! What's all this?

Good morning, cherry!

Princess berrykin told us about your recital!

And we wanna have one, too! Listen!

(Playing out of tune)

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

(Deflating squeak)

I'm sorry, everyone.

I'm not having any more recitals.

I'm going back to berry big city today.

I have to start making plans for my next tour.

All: awwww...

(Balloon deflating)

We'll miss you, cherry jam. (Sniff)

(Sad guitar music)

(Sigh) she loves tangerines.

And snap peas! She loves snap peas.

Here, strawberry, I crocheted a ribbon for her basket.

Oh, this is lovely, raspberry.

(All sigh sadly)

Did I miss her? Has she left?

I was making her a new hair scent, cherry vanilla souffle.

(Sniff)

She hasn't left yet, lemon.

Ph I'm glad.

I'm not glad. I hate good-byes!

I'm so sad cherry is leaving berry bitty city!

Girls: me too! It's so sad.

(Bus running)

(Sigh) gotta get ourselves together!

She'll feel terrible if she sees us like this.

Hi, girls!

All: hi, cherry!

(Crying) oh, my!

I am so sad to be leaving you.

Us too!

We're gonna miss you!

(All crying)

(Sobbing) this is for your trip home.

Aww, thanks. (Sniff)

Well, I better get going.

But I'll be back before you know it.

Goodbye, berry bitty city.

Goodbye, cherry!

Don't stay away long!

(Engine revving)

All: huh?

(Engine stalls)

(Hissing)

Wow! I wonder what's wrong?

(Laughing) well! It's just like you said.

You're back before we know it.

(Machinery whirring)

Try it again.

(Whirring stops)

(Sigh) bumbling bitterberries!

Is it bad?

Never seen worse.

We can repair the hoozzywot carbinator.

But you're gonna need a new hydraulic juicerinser.

Can you install a new one?

Oh no, that's a custom part.

Gotta special order one from berry big city motor parts.

Two, maybe three weeks.

(Tea pouring)

Well, to tell you the truth...

I'm glad I get to stay in berry bitty city longer.

And we're glad you're staying.

(Tuba plays)

What's that?

(Giggles) I think it's my next set of music students.

(Out of tune music)

Look, cherry!

We've added some spice to our act!

(Clapping)

Now can we have a recital?

I have a better idea. You have skills beyond music!

Let's hold a talent show!

Anyone can enter, and anything goes!

Yes! We can have trophies for st, nd and rd place.

Bookworm bob and his cousins bart and boris can be judges...

Cherry jam... Oh, that's a berry good idea!

(Excited cheering)

Hello, everyone. Welcome to book club.

Come on in.

Girls: hi blueberry!

What are you doing for the talent contest, raspberry?

The same piece on my keyboard I did for the recital.

Well, you were definitely the best performer!

Ah! I did make nine mistakes...

But yesterday I got it down to seven,

And today I got it down to six.

I'm going to juggle.

I haven't decided.

I want my act to be simply... Sensational!

Lemon, I'm sure whatever you think of, will be.

I'm writing a play and directing the baby berrykins in it.

Oh, that's berry ambitious, blueberry.

I'm going to perform the flamingo and the hummingbird!

Oh my favorite ballet. So berry moving.

Um, you're dancing both parts?

Sure!

When I win, I don't wanna have to share the glory.

(All giggling)

Oh, you're silly, plum.

But she has a point.

If you really wanna win, you have to winalone .

Oh, I don't know about that.

Cherry and I are singing a duet and...

So sorry I'm late, girls,

But I just got a call from my manager. Wait'll you hear this!

Oooh, what is it?

My publicist put a plug in berry big glam and glitz

Magazine about our talent contest, and a talent scout

From berry big city is coming to see the show!

(Excited screams)

You mean it?

A talent scout?

Right here in berry bitty city?

To see us?

Uh-huh!

Whoa...this means I have to get down to less than...

To no mistakes!

This is my big chance to be discovered!

Alright, girls, (laughs)

We're here to talk about the book.

Okay, who liked the part where daisy daffodil

Moves to a penthouse in the palac

Okay, who likedand hasrt where dais servants?

It's going to be just like me when the talent scout

Brings me to berry big city to be a star! (Laughs)

Orange: you're already a star to us!

Blueberry: oh, raspberry.

(Upbeat rock music)

Hello, miss lemon.

What are you going to paint today?

Hi, berrykin bloom!

It's my entry in the talent contest.

That big, beautiful hedge at the lawn bowling and croquet club.

I'm gonna finish it today.

Uh...not anymore.

Oh, I'm sorry, lemon.

I trimmed the hedge into animal shapes.

You know, topiaries. Although...

They are rather unique, don't you think?

More than unique, berrykin bloom,

They're sensational!!

Ohh, thank you-thank you-thank you!!

Oh, hi, girls!

Where can we put raspberry's keyboard?

Better put it over there until the stage is finished.

Raspberry, you can stop. You're down to no mistakes!

I guess you're right.

Cherry? Strawberry?

I'm ready for your final, um, fitting of your costumes.

That's great, then... Can I ask you a favor?

Of course.

Would you be able to handle the lights for the show?

Oh sure! Sounds fun!

And plum? Could you help us

Work out a little choreography for our act?

Oh, I'd be delighted!

Raspberry: I'm seeing... Lots of sparkles!

It's going to be dreamy! Magical!

Dreamagical!

(Hair brushing)

Aha! A giraffe!

Nah, not me. I know...

(Humming)

A penguin!

No talent scout has ever seen this!

Animal topiary hairstyles!

I'll be a sensation.

Huh. Scent...sation.

(Gasp) that's it!

(Spraying)

(Big sniff) ahhh!

(Spraying)

Lemon: hold on! Just a sec! Co!!

Lemon? Is everything all right? What's going on in there?

In here? Um... Nothing.

(Sniff) ugh, what's that awful smell?

(Sad sigh) I mixed the wrong scent and color.

Yuhee! W-wha...? Oh, dear!

Can I help you get that thing off your head?

This thing happens to be my sensational hair topiary

For the talent show.

Hair topiary?

Animal hair topiary. Scented.

Oh.

(Sniffs) it's a...skunk?

(Gasp) a penguin!

Oh. Of course!

Want me to help you wash him out?

I'll take care of her , thank you very much.

Okay. Listen, I was wondering if you could help me out

By playing a part in my play?

The berrykins can't seem to memorize their lines....

But the talent show's supphmm? To be a competition.

Well, I'm sorry, but I don't have time.

If I'm gonna win, I have to put everything into my own act.

Oh. I understand.

You sure you don't want help washing that out?

I'm sure. But, thanks blueberry.

Penguin?
