BEASTGreat googly moogly!

MAGGIEThe Big Hat.

(Humming)

Great googly moogly!

(Snoring)

Good morning, Hamilton!

HAMILTONHuh? What?

I said, good morning!

Oh, it’s too early to get up, Beast!

It’s still dark out!

No, it isn’t. It’s a bright, sunny day.

It is? Where are you?

Right here.

Where? And where are all the stars?

Where they go every morning.

It’s just because it’s dark under your hat.

My hat?

I was sleeping under a hat?

Well, this can’t possibly be my hat.

It’s much too big to fit me.

(Crashing)

But it is a very nice hat.

Yes, it is.

You could fit a lot of things in a hat that size.

Uh-huh, a lot of heads all at once.

Yes, you certainly could.

(Humming)

MAGGIEWow!

Look at the size of that!

Maggie! Hello, Maggie!

Hi! This must be The Kindly Giant’s hat.

But why would he leave it here?

Because he didn’t want it anymore.

And so, he threw it away.

This far?

When a giant throws a hat, it can go quite a distance.

What if his hat blew off in a gust of wind?

And what if he’s looking for it?

Hmm. It would take a hurricane to carry off a hat this size.

And The Kindly Giant is so tall, and can see so far,

that if he were looking for it, he’d have found it already.

Besides, I’ve already got big plans for it.

"Plans"? "Plans"?

(Rummaging)

A-ha!

Is this going to be your new house, Hamilton?

No, my box will always be my house.

This will be the place where I work.

If you must know, I’m opening a business.

A store?

A hat store?

You’ll find out at sharp.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a lot to do.

(Sawing)

(Dreamy Hawaiian music)

Mmm! I smell something good!

(Sniffing)

Me too. And it’s coming from Hamilton’s work place.

(Sizzling)

Wow! Wow!

Welcome to my restaurant!

This is wonderful!

Restaurant starts with "R".

"H" stands for "Hamilton’s".

It’s a very colourful sign. And I like the name.

(Laughing)

I do too.

When I have more time, I’ll make all the letters in my name.

Come on, wait till you see the inside!

Can we sit by the window?

Ah, I’ll have to see. Just wait here.

(Sawing)

(Panting)

A table by the window has just become available.

Hamilton!

Ooh!

This is a very fancy hat.

Maggie and Beast,

table for two, right this way, please.

(Sniffing)

Mmm!

Beast, no! Those are after dinner mints!

I was just smelling them.

May I recommend the pumpkin soufflé flambé brûlée?

What else do you have?

Well, just that. I was busy today.

Then I’ll have the pumpkin soufflé flambé brûlée, please.

And I want the same as Maggie, only bigger.

That’s one pumpkin soufflé flambé brûlée,

and another pumpkin soufflé flambé brûlée, that’s bigger,

coming right up.
[ … ]

(Sighing)

Isn’t this something?

Our Hamilton running his own restaurant?

Do you think I could have a restaurant some day, Maggie?

Maybe, if The Kindly Giant throws away another hat.

Dinner is served.

Enjoy!

It smells good!

(Slurping)

And it tastes good!

What do you think, Maggie?

Mmm! Pumpkin-y!

There’s pumpkin in it!

Does anyone else hear thunder?

I do. But there’s not a cloud in the sky.

(Crashing)

My lunch is jiggling.

Wha-- What’s going on out there?

(Crashing)

(Squealing)

Could you eat faster? I’m closing soon!

But you just opened!

What about the after dinner mints?

(Hamilton squealing)

KINDLY GIANTOh! Hello there!

Hello, Kindly Giant!

Good afternoon!

KINDLY GIANTI’ve been all over looking for this hat.

It blew off in a hurricane.

Gee, a hurricane!

(Laughing)

What do you know?

Mint?

Hmm. There’s a door in my hat.

Well, and a window too.

(Laughing)

Yes, well, there’s a reason for that.

KINDLY GIANTThis will keep my head nice and cool on those hot summer days.

And that’s the reason.

Well, I must be going now.

I still haven’t found my umbrella.

Goodbye!

MAGGIEBye!

Bye-bye! Bye now!

(Stomping)

Oh! Now what do I do?

You’re still in business, Hamilton.

Now you’ve got a sidewalk cafe.

That’s a good idea, Maggie. Everyone likes eating outside.

It’s like a fancy picnic!

The tables could run right along here.

(Gulping)

Can I have my mint now?

I finished my pumpkin soufflé flambé brûlée.

Maggie, could you get him a mint?

I have a sidewalk cafe to lay out.

Now, around each table here,

I could put a beautiful striped umbrella.

And then here, there’d be an entranceway.

And people could line up as they were waiting to come in.

And I could have a nice stack of many...

MAGGIEThe Camping Trip.

Tent?

HAMILTONCheck!

Sleeping bag?

Check!

Pumpkins?

"Pumpkins"?

Check!

Beast, you can’t take pumpkins on a camping trip.

Yes, I can. I’m the Ferocious Beast.

(Sighing)

I’ll see if there's room in my box.

Are we really going to sleep out in a tent under the stars?

We sure are, Beast.

All night?

Until the sun comes up in the morning.

Beast, you camp out under the stars every night.

I know. But this is different.

This time, I’m camping out under the stars with my best friends.

Great googly moogly!

This is going to be the best night ever!

Hamilton, make sure you bring enough food.

Yes, Beast.

(Maggie laughing)

According to the map, this is it,

the best camping spot on the River of Dreams.

Well? What do you think?

Oh, Maggie! This is wonderful!

Yes, it’s great. Can we eat now?

(Maggie laughing)

(Groaning)

Beast, I need your help!

BEASTOkay!

(Crashing)

(Laughing)

Thank you, Beast.

Perfect!

I can’t wait to try it out. Now can we eat?

(Maggie laughing)
[ … ]

(Slurping)

Hamilton, that was a wonderful dinner.

(Slurping)

Yes. It was delicious!

And these pumpkins make the perfect dessert.

(Crunching)

(Gulping)

Mmm!

(Maggie laughing)

I think you’ve had enough dessert for one night, Beast.

Besides, I thought you wanted to try out the tent.

I do! I’ve never been in a tent before.

Great googly moogly!

I’m going to like sleeping in here.

I’ll just get my sleeping bag.

Huh?

(Groaning)

Uh-oh! I’m stuck!

(Groaning)

MAGGIEBe careful, Beast!

HAMILTONSit still. We’ll get you out!

(All groaning and straining)

Oh no! Now nobody will be able to sleep in the tent!

What did you do that for, Beast?

I just wanted to be with you and Maggie.

MAGGIEWell, now that there is no tent,

we can all sleep under the stars.

Outside? You mean on the ground?

Sure. We don’t need a tent to sleep under the stars.

We just need stars.

Come on, Hamilton.

Oh! I’m not sure about this.

(Sighing)

Perfect!

(Rustling)

Did you hear that?

Hear what?

(Snapping and rustling)

(Screaming)

(Ripping)

Oh no! That was my sleeping bag, Beast!

I thought I heard a bear!

It must’ve been your imagination.

Oh! My sleeping bag.

Hmm!

(Crickets chirping)

(Owl hooting)

It sure is dark out. I’m scared.

Don’t be scared, Beast. Look at the stars.

That really bright one is the wishing star.

Why don’t we all make a wish?

Good idea!

Why don’t you go first, Beast?

I wish I’d brought my nightlight.

Your nightlight? We’re camping out!

I know! But I’m scared!

(Twinkling)

What are those things?

Fireflies!

I have an idea. Come on, Hamilton.

Okay!

We’re going to need some jars.

Do you have any in your box, Hamilton?

What for?

You’ll see!

All right.

(Rummaging)

Hmm. Found some!

Good! Let’s get started!

Here’s another one.

Our very own firefly nightlights.

There. Now you can get some sleep.

Thank you, Maggie.

Thank you, Hamilton.

Goodnight!

Goodnight, Beast. Goodnight, Beast.

BEASTHamilton?

What is it now?

Could you turn the lights down a little?

They’re fireflies. I can’t turn them down!

But I can’t sleep! It’s too bright!

It won’t be too bright if you close your eyes.

Oh! Goodnight, Hamilton!

Goodnight, Beast!

(Snapping)

What was that?

I’m scared!

(Grumbling)

Go to sleep, you two! It’s your imagination.

(Teeth chattering)

(Rustling)

It’s a bear!

A big bear! A big bear!

(Shouting)

(Chattering)

(Rustling)

Whew! It’s a big bear, all right!

A big adorable teddy bear!

(Laughing)

Hi!
[ … ]

MAGGIELook, Hamilton!

Ah, he’s cute!

(Chattering)

How big?

Don’t be frightened, Beast.

It’s okay. I won't hurt you.

My name is Paulie.

I heard voices. So, I came over to see what was happening.

Oh!

(All laughing)

What are you doing here so late?

We’re camping out under the stars.

I camp out all the time.

Would you like to join us?

Yeah, that sounds like fun!

Hey, do you have anything to eat around here?

I was looking for a midnight snack.

Well, I did bring a pumpkin pie.

Oh, I love pumpkin pie. Do you have any honey?

Oh, yes, I’m sure we have some honey for you.

We’ll go get some.

Oh, thank you!

So, you like pumpkins too.

Yup, always have, always will.

But you like them with honey.

I never like them with honey because it makes me all sticky.

And I wouldn’t want to get my spots dirty

because, when my spots get dirty,

I have to wash them.

And the last time we washed them, they all shrunk.

And then Maggie had to put them in a book to flatten them out.

(Snoring)

Am I boring you?

(Maggie and Hamilton laughing)

Why are you sleeping?

MAGGIEThe Leaning Tower of Carrot.

(Beast laughing)

Great googly moogly, I’m hot. I need a shady spot.

(Upbeat music)

Hmm.

(Creaking)

(Sighing)

This isn’t shady enough.

(Creaking)

(Panting)

(Egyptian music)

(Panting)

Ooh!

Shade!

(Lumbering music)

(Inhaling)

(Birds cawing)

Sorry! Sorry, I’ll fix it!

(Groaning)

(Crashing)

(Birds cawing)

Oh, dear!

Look! It’s Beast!

Hi, Beast!

Oh, Maggie! There’s just too much of me.

Look what I did!

How did that happen?

I just wanted a shady spot. That’s all.

And I pushed it by accident.

Now all the birds are gone. And the carrot’s all crooked!

What’s Nedley going to say?

Oh, he’s not going to like this one bit!

(Sighing)

Don’t worry, Beast. We can fix this.

(Jaunty piano)

Hmm.

It just needs to be propped up with something,

something like a giant bookend.

But it’s not a crooked book. It’s a crooked vegetable!

Beast, you’re absolutely right.

Here’s the tomatoes. Now we need a potato.

You mean a "Po-tah-to".

No, it has to be a potato, a great big one.

Here we are.

I don’t see any potatoes.

Neither do I.

(Laughing)

They don’t grow up here.

Potatoes grow under the ground.

Ooh! Don’t they get dirty under there?

Really dirty! But that’s the way potatoes like it.

When I’m in the garden, I like to wear overalls.

Not potatoes, they don’t wear anything.

I know that!

Come on, Hamilton. We’ve got a lot of digging to do.

You know, I see a couple of beans

that could hold up that carrot.

Or how about that strawberry over there?

Great googly moogly!

Hey! I think I found one! Come on, Hamilton!

(Sighing)

All right, Maggie.

(Sniffing)

Mmm!

I’m sure The Kindly Giant wouldn’t mind
[ … ]

if I have just a small taste.

My goodness!

This is the biggest potato I’ve ever seen!

Maggie, it could take weeks to dig this out.

And what about The Kindly Giant? These are his vegetables.

He said we could help ourselves whenever we wanted.

And whenever is today.

(Rumbling)

Speaking of The Kindly Giant...

(Heavy tuba music)

(Gasping)

(Whimpering)

Hello, Kindly Giant!

KINDLY GIANTHo ho! Look who’s here!

It’s us!

We’re just here to dig up a potato.

Well, so am I!

You don’t need to dig with your hands. I brought my shovel.

This will save some time, if we can lift it.

Let me dig this potato up for you.

Really?

Gee, thanks, Kindly Giant!

(Digging)

Great googly moogly!

Wow!

Unbelievable!

Just look at the size of those "Po-tah-toes"!

"Po-tah-toes"?

He means "Po-tay-toes"!

I think this one will do quite nicely.

Would you like to borrow my French fry cutter?

No, thank you!

(Grunting)

We want to keep it just the way it is.

Hold on, Maggie. We’ll help you!

(All groaning)

Thanks for your help, Kindly Giant!

And the potato!

You’re most welcome!

(Beast grunting)

Goodbye!

MAGGIESee you later!

(Grunting)

MAGGIEKeep going. You’re almost there!

Whoa, that’s perfect! Good job, Beast!

Whew! Thank you, Maggie.

Yes, sir, that is one sturdy vegetable now.

And look! Here comes a bird!

(Flapping)

(Happy music)

(Bird tweeting)

(Birds calling)

I’m glad they came back before Nedley did.

(Gasping)

My typical day has just taken a twist!

I go out to get groceries and come home to this?

Hello, Nedley!

Nice day, isn’t it?

I’m too overwhelmed to talk about weather.

I want to find out who put these together.

It was me.

Beast was just trying to fix it.

The carrot was crooked and--

That carrot’s been tippy for more than a week.

This potato is perfect. It’s huge. It's unique!

Oh! I’m glad you like it!

Like it? I love it!

And to show that I do, I’ll invite you for dinner.

You like carrot stew?

I think that sounds tasty.

I’ll have some!

Me too!

I’ll bring out my best dishes and spoons just for you.

I’m a lucky Beast!

And I’m a lucky pig!

(Maggie laughing)

And I’m a lucky Maggie.

(Giggling)

I don’t think that rhymes.

(Birds cawing)
