[GRANDPA HUMS EXCITEDLY]

Ooh!

Hmmm... Oh!

[GROAN] Piffle...

Your flowers are frantastic!

I'm sure your drawing is beautiful, Franny.

Lets have a look.

[GASPS] Uh uh.

Oh? [CHUCKLE]

Are you too shy to show your old Grandpa your picture?

[WHIMPERS]

You know it's okay to be shy, Franny.

Maybe you'll want to show it to me later.

[SIGHS]

[BELL RINGS]

Ooh! A customer!

And what can we do for you?

It's my shoes.

I need them nice and shiny for my show.

Shiny shoes.

Hmm, they're very shiny already,

but we can polish them up till they gleam. Right Franny?

Right!

Thanks! I'll pick them up tomorrow.

[GIGGLES] Into the fix-it box they go!

Where will my feet take me today?

[TWINKLES]

Where the galoopy am I? [GASPS]

And one, and two, and three--

Wow! A dance studio!

And that must be the dancing star!

Robbie?

[GASPS]

You in here, pal?

You bet, Uncle Al!

I'll be done mopping in a jiffy!

Excellent work, Robbie. Looks brand new.

Good thing, too!

We've got auditions in here this afternoon.

Auditions?

Nelson got the chickenpox, poor kid --

We've got to replace him for tonight's show.

Need someone about your height. Your build.

You'd be perfect if you knew how to dance.

Any suggestions, pal?

You know everyone around here.

Um...

[GIGGLES]

Um...Suggestions?

[GASPS]

Ah... No, Uncle Al. Sorry. I can't think of anyone.

No worries. Catch up with you later, okay.

Hmmm..that's strange..

Why didn't you tell him you can dance?

AHH! WHO ARE YOU?!

Oops! Sorry I scared you!

I'm Franny.

Robbie...

You're a frantastic dancer!

Who me?! I'm not a dancer.

Applesauce! I just saw you!

No, you didn't.

Wha-- I did too!

You were a hopping and bopping all over the floor!

Nah.

You must be thinking of someone else.

The only people who can dance around here

are the AMAZING dancers in my

Uncle Al's highland dance troupe.

They are out of this world!

What? But -- Then what were you doing?

Mopping.

Move please, that's a dirty spot...

Hmmm...

Jeepers!

Robbie can dance he just doesn't know it.

I've got to help him see that

he really can dance.

I know. I'll pretend that I want to audition

for the troupe and get him to help me.

Robbie! I'm going to audition for the dance troupe.

You? Really?

That's great.

Let me show you what I'm going to do,

and you tell me what you think.

Um... Okay.

Here I go...

[SINGS OFF-KEY:] La-la-la! La-la-la!

[GASPS]


[GIGGLES] Well? Do I have it? Or DO I HAVE IT?

I'm going to get ready for my big audition.

Um... well, that was pretty good, Franny.

Ah, but Highland dancing looks a little different.

Try stomping with your body straight.

Like this...

[TOES TAPPPING]

[GIGGLES] Oh, I see... Like this?

Right! And then put your arms out like this...

[TOES TAP WITH MUSIC]

Perfect. And then when you stomp

you go to the b*at!

One, two, three, four...

One, two, three, four...

That's it, Franny! You got it!

Frantabulous! And see!

You're dancing, too!

Uh, no. No, I'm not.

I told you, I don't dance.

My job is to mop up.

Aw...piffle!

I guess I'll let you get back to your mopping then.

Okay. Nice to meet you, Franny.

Bye now!

Bye-bye.

Robbie really can dance.

He just won't admit it.

[TOES TAPPING]

[HIGHLAND MUSIC]

Gobbledeegook, I knew it...

A-HA! [GASPS]

CAUGHT YA!

What? I wasn't doing anything.

Yes you were! You were dancing!

I don't know what you're talking about, Franny.

I was just mopping.

Hooey! I saw you!

Oh, wait a second...

Are you too shy to let people see you dance?

Pfft! Me? Shy? Ha, ha! That's silly.

It's okay to be shy, you know.

I'm too shy to show Grandpa my drawings.

But I'm not shy!

Piffle.

What am I going to do with that Robbie?

I've got an idea.

Well, Robbie, um... I guess I'd better go now.

Okay. Bye Franny.

See? Here I go... I'm leaving! Bye.

Bye Franny.

[GIGGLES]

[MUSIC AND TAPPING]

Perfect.

[AHEM] Hi there! I'm Franny!

Hello. I'm Al.

Are you here for the audition?

No.

But I hear you're looking for a dancer.

Yes, that's true.

Well have I got a dancer for you!!!

Come with me!

Shhh...

[HIGHLAND MUSIC AND TOES TAPPING]

Good, huh?

Sweet Ketchup! He's better than good!

What do you say we give him a hand?

[APPLAUSE]

[GASPS]

[BREATHING HEAVILY] Um... How...

Uh, how long have you been standing there?

Long enough! You're terrific!

Really? You mean it?

[GIGGLES]

[STOMPING b*at]

[MUSIC AND TAPPING]

Ta-da!

Woo! Good job!

You're a natural! Just like your old Uncle.

But there's just one problem with all this.

Huh?

We'll have to cancel the auditions!

I've already found my new dancer!

Wow! Me? Really, Uncle Al?

I need you, pal. What do you say?

I say, Allllllright!

Say, Franny.

I could always use one more dancer in my troupe...

someone like you would do just fine.

You have the right shoes and everything!

Oh, that would be truly frantastic,

but I really should be getting back.

My Grandpa needs me in his troupe.

Dancing?

Shoe repairing.

And it's just me and him!

Thanks for showing me that there's no reason to be shy!

Bye Robbie, thanks for the dancing!

[TWINKLES]

[GIGGLES] Uncle Al and Robbie. What great guys.

Ahh! Robbie's head band!


Another treasure for my shoe box.

Look, Grandpa, would you like to see my picture?

I sure would!

Do I have it or do I have it?!

Hmm... [CHUCKLES] You certainly have it!

[GIGGLES]

It's so good I'm going to put this picture up right here.

[GASPS]

I thought nobody wanted to see it

and now everybody is going to!

Just like Robbie's dancing.

Robbie? Who's Robbie?

He's a dancer, only he was

too shy to dance.

Then Uncle Al asked him to join the troupe.

[CHUCKLES] Why don't you tell me

all about it while I get some tape to hang up the picture.

Okey dokey, Grandpa.

Where will my feet take me tomorrow...
