Bedtime, Lucy! >

0:01:090:01:12

OK, Mum.

0:01:120:01:14

-Hi, everyone!

-ALL: Hi, Lucy!

0:01:360:01:39

-Do you like my new bracelet?

-Oh...that's very pretty!

0:01:390:01:45

Whose name is that?

0:01:450:01:47

It says...E...M...M...A.

0:01:470:01:51

Emma!

0:01:510:01:53

Was it a present from Emma?

0:01:530:01:56

Uh...no. Not really. I borrowed it from her.

0:01:560:02:01

So you asked Emma if you could wear her bracelet for a while?

0:02:010:02:05

Um...not exactly.

0:02:050:02:08

This reminds me of the story of Pauline the Pelican.

0:02:110:02:16

-Would you like to hear it?

-Well...

0:02:160:02:19

Oh, yes...

0:02:190:02:22

-I think you should.

-All right.

0:02:220:02:25

I do love your stories, Molly.

0:02:250:02:28

Every day, just as the sun was climbing in the sky,

0:02:290:02:34

Pauline the Pelican would go fishing for her breakfast on Waterlily Lake.

0:02:340:02:40

One day, the fish were particularly clever and slippery.

0:02:420:02:47

No matter how hard she tried, Pauline couldn't catch a thing.

0:03:010:03:06

HE CAWS

0:03:060:03:09

Look out below! Yummy fish in view!

0:03:090:03:12

Nee-yer-r-r-r!

0:03:120:03:16

Seamus the Stork wasn't having any trouble finding fish.

0:03:160:03:20

He'd caught lots of fish that day already.

0:03:200:03:24

One for me...and one for me!

0:03:260:03:29

I'll take another one for me! And one for Seamus, of course!

0:03:290:03:35

Seamus had caught so many fish,

0:03:350:03:38

he couldn't carry them all back to his nest!

0:03:380:03:41

Well, I suppose I can leave this one behind and come back for it later!

0:03:440:03:49

Ready for take-off? Let's go! Br-rr-m!

0:03:490:03:53

Vr-room! Vroom!

0:03:530:03:56

Seamus had left behind a very big and tasty fish,

0:03:570:04:01

and Pauline was feeling hungry.

0:04:010:04:04

RUMBLING Oh! That's me tummy rumbling!

0:04:040:04:10

Seamus doesn't need this fish. I'll take it and catch one for him later.

0:04:100:04:16

I'm sure he won't mind! Anyway, he'll never know.

0:04:170:04:21

What a cheek!

0:04:210:04:23

Herbert the Warthog was feeling happy.

0:04:260:04:29

He's just had a dust bath and found a huge watermelon.

0:04:290:04:34

My watermelon! Where's it gone? Where's it gone?

0:04:450:04:49

Ooh! What a nasty shock that was!

0:04:490:04:52

Naughty watermelon! Hiding from Herbert!

0:04:520:04:55

Safe at last! Time for a little trot before lunchtime.

0:04:580:05:02

Why not? Then I'll gobble it down!

0:05:020:05:05

HE CHORTLES

0:05:050:05:09

Pauline thought the watermelon looked delicious.

0:05:090:05:13

Ooh! My watermelon!

0:05:230:05:26

Where's it gone?

0:05:260:05:29

As Pauline flew over the savanna,

0:05:290:05:31

she spotted Reginald the Lion dozing in the long grass.

0:05:310:05:36

HE SNUFFLES

0:05:360:05:39

Snooze...mmm...

0:05:390:05:42

My lovely, tasty bone!

0:05:440:05:47

Mmm!

0:05:470:05:48

HE SNORES

0:05:500:05:53

Reginald is fast asleep. I'm sure he won't mind if I eat that bone now

0:05:530:05:59

and bring him another one later.

0:05:590:06:01

Lovely bone! Just for Reggie!

0:06:050:06:09

Mmm... Huh?

0:06:210:06:23

I don't believe it!

0:06:230:06:26

Pauline's beak was so full of food,

0:06:340:06:37

she couldn't fly.

0:06:370:06:40

She had to walk the rest of the way back home.

0:06:420:06:45

< Hello?

0:06:540:06:56

< Anyone at home?

0:06:560:06:59

Good evening, Pauline.

0:07:000:07:03

MUFFLED SPEECH

0:07:030:07:06

-We're not disturbing your tea, or anything(?)

-Mm-mm!

0:07:060:07:11

Actually, we've come to warn you! Mm? >

0:07:110:07:14

-It seems...

-Someone wolfed my watermelon!

0:07:140:07:18

I'd buried it in the safest place in the whole savanna!

0:07:180:07:23

Now it's gone! It's not fair!

0:07:230:07:26

MUFFLED SPEECH

0:07:260:07:29

-Someone has been taking food without asking.

-I

-lost a bone!

0:07:290:07:34

-I lost a fish!

-I lost the juiciest watermelon in the whole world!

0:07:340:07:39

So be on your guard, Pauline Pelican. Don't leave any food lying around.

0:07:390:07:45

-Or you might be next!

-Even hiding it in holes doesn't help!

0:07:450:07:50

Well, we'll leave you to get on with whatever you were doing.

0:07:500:07:55

Just thought we'd warn you.

0:07:550:07:57

Bye!

0:07:570:07:59

Mmm...mmm!

0:07:590:08:02

Pauline felt very guilty, and wished she'd never taken the food.

0:08:020:08:07

Even though she was so hungry that her tummy was rumbling,

0:08:070:08:12

she decided to give the food back to her friends.

0:08:120:08:16

SNORING

0:08:400:08:42

This'll be hard. If Reginald catches me with his bone, I'm in trouble.

0:08:440:08:49

Oh, well, here goes...

0:08:520:08:55

It was very dark when Pauline finally got home.

0:09:000:09:04

She hadn't eaten anything all day,

0:09:040:09:07

but she was happy that all the food was back where it belonged

0:09:070:09:12

and she fell into a deep sleep.

0:09:120:09:14

BIRDS TWEET

0:09:160:09:18

RATTLING Eh?

0:09:180:09:21

-Wakey, wakey, Pauline!

-What's happening?

0:09:210:09:25

-Is it someone's birthday?

-No!

-And it's not Christmas?

0:09:270:09:32

- No! - So...?

0:09:320:09:35

We decided we had so much food, we'd share it and have a party!

0:09:350:09:40

The cake is for you, our favourite pelican.

0:09:400:09:43

I don't know what to say!

0:09:430:09:46

How about..."Let's eat"?

0:09:460:09:49

Yeah, let's go down to the lake and eat our cake.

0:09:490:09:54

Fishes and cream! Oh...! Yippee! Yeah!

0:09:550:09:59

-Pauline was very happy.

-And Seamus, Reggie and Herbert were happy too.

0:09:590:10:05

And they all had lots to eat!

0:10:050:10:07

-I think I'll give Emma her bracelet back tomorrow.

-Good idea!

0:10:070:10:12

-I'll make her a cake, like they did for Pauline!

-With fishes and cream?!

0:10:120:10:18

YUK! I don't think so! I want her to stay my friend!

0:10:180:10:22

It's much too late for baking cakes now. Time for bed, I think.

0:10:220:10:28

Thanks for the story. Good night!

0:10:280:10:32

ALL: Good night, Lucy!
