[Lyla] The Little Piggies and Brucey

[Lyla] That night, the wolf huffed and puffed,

but couldn't blow down the last piggy's house, so the three

little pigs sat by the fire and enjoyed a delicious

vegetable stew.

[trills]

[laugh] Not you, Stu.

[Lyla] See!? Like a soup stew, not a you Stu!

Somebody want me to make a stew?

[trills]

No, Dad, every time we say, you know,

[imitating eating] the other word for soup that

sounds like someone's name...

[trills]

Stu thinks we mean him!

Oh. I get it. I think...

[lip smacking] Mmmm, now that you mention it,

a nice pickled vegetable, uh soup

would hit the spot right about now.

And the three little pigs lived happily ever after.

The end.

Okay, you two, story time is over.

What should we do now?

Read it again, Lyla!

What? No!

[Stu] [trills] [Luke] Pretty please!

I've read it a million times!

No, you haven't.

Only like eight or nine... hundred.

[groan] The first Little Pig builds a house...

... Made of hay!

And the Wolf huffs and puffs and blows the house down!

The second Little Pig builds a house...

... Made of twigs!

And the wolf huffs and puffs and blows the house down!

The third Little Pig builds a house...

Aren't you gonna say "“made of bricks"”?

Nope. Keep going.

[sigh] The third little pig builds a house made of bricks

and no matter how much the Wolf huffed and puffed...

... He couldn't blow the house down!

[trills]

Right.

So he had to watch from outside

as the Three Little Pigs enjoyed delicious veggie... st--uh-- SOUP!

A delicious veggie SOUP.

The end!

[sigh] Can you read the story again?

And this time, show the pictures, too, please?!

[trills]

But... I... uh... [sigh]

[gasp] Wait! I know!

Why don't we act out the story?

[Luke] Act it out? [Stu] [trills]

Yeah!

Pretend to be the characters in the story.

We can be the pigs and Stu can be the wolf!

He can do a great howl.

I've never heard him howl.

Hey Stu, go [howling].

[tremendous howling]

Oh, wow!

See? He'll be a great wolf.

Yeah, but... it's just me and you.

The two of us.

Two.

Two Pigs.

So?

The story is called, "“The Three Little Pigs"

Yeah, but we can do it our own way, the Loops Way.

That'll be more fun.

We could call our story...

The TWO Little Pigs!

Yes!

And since we're doing the story the Loops Way, we can

be whatever kind of pig we want to be.

Really?!

[trills]

Uh huh!

Also, we should wear costumes.

[gasp] I'm Astronaut Pig!

Ooooh!

I'm going to build my house in outer space with Moon rocks.

My turn! My turn!

[Luke] I am Construction Worker Pig.

Yeah!

I can build my house with... anything!

[Lyla] Let's go! [Luke] Wait. [Stu] [trills]

I think we need one more thing to be piggies.

[in unison] Oink Oink! [Stu] [imitating oinking]

Now let's find you a wolf costume, Stu.

Hmmm...

I don't see anything wolf-y.

You?

No... but I found a chicken beak.

There.

[trills]

[giggle] You don't look anything like a wolf.

[trills]

No. You look like a chicken.

Then he can be a chicken in our story.

But...

We'll just substitute a chicken for the wolf.

Substitute?

Change it, swap it, switch it.

Since it's OUR story, we can tell it OUR way.

Yeah!

Hey, Stu, try a howling chicken walk, like...

Bwack, Bwack, [howling]!

[imitating Lyla, clucking followed by howling]

[in unison] [laughing]

I'm going to build my house first!

Okay...

With what?

Hay? Sticks? Bricks?

We don't have any of those.

Then I'll substitute!

[Lyla] With what?

Oooo, you'll see...

Wait here!

Ready!

[Lyla] [gasp] [Luke] Oink, oink!

I used pillows as a substitute for bricks!

Oh, wow!

[trills]

A comfy, puffy house.

Just the way this little pig likes it.

Hey Stu, now it's time for the

Wolf... uhh... Chicken to huff and puff

and blow the house down.

Go, Stu, go!

[in unison] [laughing] [Lyla] Whooooa! Wooo!

[Louisa] What's all the laughing about?

Oh, wow.

Y'all made a real mess.

We're playing "“The Two Little Pigs"”

'‘cause it's just me and Luke.

Then we switched...

Substituted.

... the plain old pigs in the story...

With "“Astronaut Pig"”.

And "“Construction Worker Pig."”

[Stu] [clucks like a chicken]

And... who is he?

He's a huffing, puffing, chicken who blew the house down.

[laughter]

Chickens can't blow houses down.

Neither can wolves.

Good point.

But you should probably clean up this mess.

Not a problem.

Hey, Stu.

[trills]

Please put everything back to normal.

Go, Stu go!

[trills]

[trills]

There.

You wanna play with us, Louisa?

Well, I'm supposed to be practicing for marching band now...

But maybe I can practice and play with you at the same time!

I am "“Parade Pig!"”

But there's no parade in the story.

Why not?

It's our story, so we can do whatever we want!

But Louisa does need one more thing.

Shoelace piggy tail, please.

Huh?

You can't be a pig without a piggy tail.

[trills]

[jaunty trombone marching parade music]

Oh! What's going on?

We're acting out "The Three Little Pigs" - the Loops way.

We're the pigs.

And Stu's the chicken who howls like a wolf.

[Lyla] [howling] [Stu] [howling]

[laughing] Whooa! I want in!

We already have three pigs.

But we're doing the story our way,

so we can have four little pigs.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold up!

Brucey Woosey wants to play, too.

Uh uh.

I am not putting one of my shoelaces in a fishbowl.

[trills]

Boy, please!

Brucey's not a pig.

He's a pet.

I'm "“Veterinarian Pig!"”

Four Little Pigs, roll out!

[jaunty trombone marching parade music]

[in unison] Oof!

And now...

It's my turn to build a house.

In outer space!

[echoing] Space... space...

Done.

[Luke/Louisa] Whoa!/Ooo! [Liana] Now that's cool. [Stu] [trills]

Lyla?

I mean, Astronaut Pig?

Astronaut Captain Pig at your service!

Now just the piggies, please climb onto the bottom bunk.

[trills]

Don't worry Stu, your part's comin' up.

Piggies, be careful of the moon rocks!

As your captain, I will fly our spaceship "“slash"” house.

Blast off!

[imitating space ship sounds]

Oh no, my spaceship is out of control.

We've flown off course!

Hold on!

[Luke] Whoa! [Louisa] Watch out for asteroids!

[Liana] Who will save us?!

Only the huffing-puffing chicken can use his super

huffer-puffer power and blow us back on course.

Hey, Stu.

[trills]

Huff and puff our spaceship to safety.

[Stu] [huffing, puffing, blowing]

[In unison] Yeah!/Woohoo!

We landed, we're safe!

Hurray!

And they all lived happily ever after.

The end!

The end of what?

The end of our story.

The Four Little Pigs.

And Brucey.

Luke was a construction worker pig who built his house...

... With pillows instead of bricks!

And the chicken wolf huffed and puffed and blew the house down.

[blowing]

Then Louisa led a parade with her trombone.

Then Liana was veterinarian pig and brought along Brucey.

Mmhmm, that's right.

And you were the star, Brucey!

Yes you were, yes you were!

And then I, Captain Astronaut Pig, built a space

ship house and it went out of control.

And the chicken wolf saved the day by huffing and puffing...

[huffing, puffing, and blowing]

and blowing us back to Earth.

Whoa! Wow!

And that's the end of the story.

That CAN'T be the end of the story...

Because Chef Daddy Pig is whipping up a

pot of pickled vegetable st...

SOUP!

Right SOUP, for dinner!

Any of you piggies wanna help stir the pot?

[Lyla/Luke] Yeah!/I'll stir! [Louisa/Liana] Me too!/And me!

Hey, Stu, c'mon!

[Stu] [clucking followed by howling]

[Liana] And...action, Lyla!

[Lyla] Stu loves snacks. [Stu] [trills]

And these little oranges are one of his favorites.

Here ya go, Stu!

[trills]

[swallowing] [satisfied sigh]

Anyway...

Stu eats a lot of snacks during the day.

Too many for me to carry!

[trills]

So!

Here's the solution...

The snack belt!

Now Stu can bring his favorite snacks wherever

he goes, and eat all day...

[Stu] [swallowing] [Lyla] ...long. Huh.

It doesn't hold enough snacks!

Let's try something else.

CUT!

[Liana] Action!

Now, our next invention...

The Portable Snack Machine!

This holds way more oranges than the snack belt.

And Stu can just pull this around with him!

Go, Stu, go!

[trills]

CUT!

[Liana] Action!

OK, this will work, I can feel it.

It's... The Snack-Train!

This holds TONS of snacks.

And it doesn't break when you pull it.

Try it, Stu!

Uh, Stu?

[trills] [Lyla] Gahh!

Well whattaya think?

[trills]

[trills]

[giggle] I think he likes it.

[trills]

[Lyla] Handle with Care

[band instruments playing]

Hey, Baby! What's a five letter word for "“LOUD"”?!

NOISY!

Sure is!

[in unison] [laughter]

Got any threes?

Huh?

Trees?!

Not trees, THREES!

Nope, no trees.

Go fish!

[phone ringing]

[phone continues ringing]

[in unison] Auntie Rita!

[Lydia] Hey, Auntie Rita!

Lydia!

How's my favorite niece?

Doing very well, Auntie.

How are all my lovely Loops' today?

Hi, Auntie Rita!

It's me, Luke!

Luke!

Yeah, quit hoggin' the camera!

Oh, all right!

Whagwan?!

Did you get the care package I sent you?!

Did we?!

Mm mm, no sa Auntie.

If we'd gotten something from you all the way from

Jamaica, we would've called to say thank you!

[in unison] [agreement sounds]

But... I got an email and photo saying it arrived!

You did?

When?

Just a little while ago.

I'll forward it to you right now.

There ya go.

[Lydia] Thanks, Auntie.

Well, I hope you can track it down.

It's full of all your favorite Jamaican treats.

Good luck!

[in unison] Bye Auntie [Luke] Thank you!

Love you!

[trills]

Please don't be lost.

I really want some bulla cakes!

I hope she sent some plantain chips!

I could eat a hundred of them!

[in unison] And lots of homemade candy...

... ginger...

... tamarind...

[in unison] Mmmm... COCONUT!

Okay... let's see; where could that package be?

That's not our door.

Oh, it was delivered to the wrong place!

Oh no!

Our treats are lost!

The bulla cakes...

[in unison] Noooooo!

If I have to knock on every door in

the neighborhood to find that package, I will!

Mom, can we see the picture again?

Maybe we can figure out where it is!

[Louisa] Looks like the package was delivered to a

building with a purple door...

[Liana] ...with a gold lion head door knocker.

It's probably somewhere in our neighborhood.

How can you tell?

I can't.

I guess, I'm hoping.

Where there's hope, there's a chance!

Yeah!

We can find it together, right?

Mmm... I've gotta get back to practice.

Me, too.

Oh, I'd better stay here and keep an eye on Luke.

Bullaaaaaa Caaaakes, come home!

[trills]

Are you up for a mystery hunt?

Is the sun bright?

Does the moon come out at night?

Do you BELIEVE, everything's gonna be all right?

I BELIEVE!

Then let's go, Lil' Loops!

Wait... how do you two plan on finding the door?

You mean, us three!

Hey, Stu!

Please grab our bike helmets.

Never fear, we're gonna find that package!

[trills]

Okay, here's the picture of where the package was delivered.

Perfect!

Hey, can Stu help us find it?

Watch and learn, Daddy-O!

Hey Stu, please search our neighborhood and find a door

like the one in the picture.

Then, come back!

[trills]

[trills]

Woohoo... he found it!

Well, that was quick!

Stu, hop in and point us to the door,

then stop when you see it again.

[trills]

[trills]

[trills]

[Lyla/Louis] AHHHH!

[Louis] [sputtering] [Lyla] Sorry about that, Ms. Lucille!

[trills]

Huh?

[Louis] Are you sure this is the right place?

Hmm... same door knocker, same plant, but the door...

It's not purple, it's red.

I guess I should have given better directions.

Hey Stu, please find a purple door

with a lion head door knocker, and come back when you've found it.

[trills]

[door opening]

[Yoon] Hey, Louis!

Guess what I'm having for lunch!

One of your Pickle and Cheese sandwiches.

Best sandwich EVER!

That's a Loops Lunch classic!

Thanks, Yoon.

Hope you didn't get paint on your sammie!

[in unison] [laughter]

[Stu] [trills] [Lyla] Great job, Stu.

Now, c'mon, time to get that package!

[trills]

[Lyla] Watch out! [Louis] [gasp]

[gasp]

[Louis] Ah! Oh no! [Lyla] Wahhh! [Stu] [trills]

Phew, that was close!

[trills]

This must be the place!

Must be... it has a purple door and a lion head door knocker.

Hey, bruh, was a package for the Loops family

delivered here by mistake?

This must not be the right door.

[Lyla] Ohh... I see.

The door is purple but the door knocker is silver, not gold...

... And the flowers in the photo are yellow.

These flowers are red.

Good eye, Lil' Loops...

you were able to spot the differences.

Guess we need to keep searchin'.

Let's try this again...

Hey Stu.

[trills]

Please search our neighborhood and find a

purple door with a gold lion head door knocker and yellow

flowers... then come back!

[trills]

[trills]

YES!

Let's roll!

[Louis] [exerting grunts]

Go go go!

Ha hah!

[panting]

Whoa!

Hold on!

[trills]

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa!

Ahhhhh!

[Lyla] AHH! [Louis] WHOAA!

[Louis] [catching breath] Whoa, that was...

Awesome!

[laughing] Okay, Baby, let's go with that...

Whoo.

[trills]

This has got to be the place.

Hope so!

[Louis] Purple door, check!

[Lyla] Gold door knocker, check!

[Louis] Yellow flowers... [Lyla] ... in a window box!

[Lyla] Not a flower pot!

This isn't the right place either.

Aww man!

Hey Stu, please find a purple door with a

gold lion head door knocker and yellow flowers in a

flower pot... then come back!

[trills]

[Stu] [error noise trill]

Uh... what does that sound mean?

[sigh] It means that Stu couldn't find a door that

matched the picture exactly.

The package is lost forever!

Hold on now...

We must have missed something.

Let's check the picture one more time.

The only door that had the same door knocker and

flowers was the first door we saw...

.... the red one.

Where Mr. Yoon was eating a Chipped Pickle and Cheese sandwich....

And I said, "“Hope you didn't get paint on it!"”

Because he was holding a paint roller.

Which means he was probably taking a break from painting!

Maybe the door used to be purple, but he painted it--

[in unison] RED!

C'mon Stu!

Let's go!

[trills]

[huffing and puffing]

[in unison] Wheee! [Stu] [trills]

Goooo!

Goooo!

[Lyla] Watch out!

[Louis] Sorry!

[sigh]

[grunt]

[Lyla] Wahhhh! [Stu] [trills]

Sorry about that... again, Lucille!

We're on a family mission!

How ya doing back there, Lil' Loops?

[sigh] Hanging in there, Dad.

Hanging in!

Louis, Lyla!

I forgot to give you this.

It was delivered here by mistake.

YES!

That's it!

That's the package from Auntie!

Thanks, Yoon.

Mr. Yoon, was your door purple before?

Sure was!

Just repainted it today.

So the door WAS purple when Stu found it, but before we

got here, Mr. Yoon had painted it red!

Stu, you had it right the first time!

[trills]

You really helped us out, Yoon.

Next Pickle and Cheese is on the house, brother!

Oh yeah!

Oh yeah!

Free sandwich!

Woo!

[in unison] [giggling]

[mouth full] This is the best day ever!

Mmmmm yeah, coconut candy heaven!

Mmmm, sour tamarind treats - Sweet!

And then we went up the hill and

down the hill and through the leaves and all around

town... and we finally found it, Auntie!

[laughs] I'm so happy ya found it.

Way to go, sweetie!

[Louis] Speaking of sweet...

where are the rest of the bulla cakes?

[Luke] [satisfied sigh] ...sooo good! [Stu] [trills]

[trills]
