Sluggy the Sea Slug Swashbuckle

# A band of naughty pirates took some jewels from me

# I hid on board their pirate ship and sailed off out to sea

# But they weren't watching where they went

# And shipwrecked on the sand

# I want to win my treasure back Will you give me a hand?

-ALL:

-# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go Take on the pirates, yo-ho-ho!

# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go Take on the pirates, go, go, go! #

Will you help me win my treasure back?

-Yeah!

-Shall we make the pirates walk the plank?

-Yeah!

Well, let's hear you then, me hearties!

# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go Take on the pirates, yo-ho-ho!

# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go Take on the pirates, go, go, go! #

-Swashbuckle cheer!

-Arrr-harrr!

-Ha-ha! Yeah!

-Yeah!

-Whoo!

Ha-ha-ha-ha! Ahoy there, me hearties,

-and welcome aboard the Scarlet Squid for Swashbuckle.

-Arrr-harrr!

I'm Gem, and it's great to have you all aboard.

-Are you ready for a rip-roaring pirate adventure?

-Arrr-harrr!

And will you help me get my jewels back from those very pesky pirates?

Arrr-harrr!

Great! Now, where is Captain Captain?

-Have you seen her anywhere?

-Boo!

Oh, stop that booing. You'll scare my new pet, Sluggy the Sea Slug.

I found her in a rock pool. Isn't she adorable?

Arrgh! Arrgh!

I don't think Sluggy likes being aboard a pirate ship.

-Are you sure she's not better off back out at sea?

-Absolutely not!

She's just being playful. Aren't you, Sluggy?

Nam-nam-nam!

Anyway, I've got Cook and Line to help me look after her.

Cook! Line!

-BOTH:

-Yes, Captain Cap...

Ooh, what's that?

Meet my cuter than cute new pet, Sluggy the Sea Slug.

Erm, I need you to help me look after her,

-and that's an order!

-Come on, little Sluggy.

You're going to be a good girl, aren't you?

-Arrgh!

-Nice little Sluggy.

Arrgh!

Looks like Cook and Line have got a tough job

looking after Sluggy, and so do we -

winning back my jewels. Squawk, let's meet today's Swashbucklers.

Playing today, we've got Amelie!

Amelie is six, and she loves water games in the sunshine.

Her Swashbuckle name is Starboard Amelie.

Look out, it's Riley!

Riley is six, and he likes telling jokes.

His Swashbuckle name is Black-Tooth Riley.

Here comes Caleb!

Caleb is six, and he loves fish fingers.

His Swashbuckle name is Chief Caleb.

Completing the crew, it's Nshira!

Nshira is six, and he can do backflips.

Let's hope he makes those naughty pirates backflip

into the slop today.

His Swashbuckle name is Galleon Nshira.

-AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

-Ha-ha-ha! Yes!

Welcome aboard to my newest team of Swashbucklers.

They'll help me win back my jewels

from Captain Captain and Cook and Line.

I need to make sure you're all ready for the challenge,

so let's do the Swashbuckle Salute.

Let me see you all marching. Put your hands on your hearts.

-Here we go! Eye patch. AUDIENCE:

-Eye patch.

-Pirate hat. AUDIENCE:

-Pirate hat.

-Swashbuckle cheer! AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harrr!

All right, I think we're ready. Squawk, what do we have to do today?

You daring Swashbucklers need to work as a team

as you take part in different pirate games.

Every time you win a game, Captain Captain will give you

a jewel for your treasure chest. Win all five jewels,

and one of the naughty pirates will walk the plank

-into the ship's mess.

-AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

And here is our treasure chest.

So, when you win back all of my jewels from Captain Captain,

we'll put them in here to keep them safe, OK?

You're not going to win any of these jewels today.

Not now that I've got Sluggy by my side.

Arrgh! Arrgh! Arrgh!

Look how excited she is!

I'm not sure that Sluggy is on your side, Captain Captain.

Even if she is, nothing is coming between my Swashbucklers

and my jewels today. Squawk, what's the first game?

The first game is...

The aim of the game is to build the statue of a giant rat.

All you have to do is cross the rock pool to collect

the pieces from the other side. But be careful!

Cook and Line will be trying to block your path.

-AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

And this is the rat that we need to build,

with six pieces way over there

the other side of the stepping stones

in those three crates. But watch out!

Line will be flinging fish, or maybe himself,

to try and put you off.

And Cook is hiding behind the octopus,

which might make it very easy to sneak past him.

But if you do fall in, you have to go back to the side

that you were coming from. You have as long as it takes

for the octopus to reach out and close the treasure chest

to play the game. Nshira and Amelie,

-you're going first?

-Yeah.

-Brilliant. Are we ready to play?

-ALL:

-Arrr-harrr!

-Then Swashbucklers away!

Come on, Nshira. Come on, Amelie. Let's do this!

Let's cheer them all on, everyone.

Come on, Nshira. That's it. Good boy.

Whoa! There you go. Well done.

Good boy! Well done! The first group is coming back.

Take your time, Amelie. Ooh, well done.

Riley, off you go. Brilliant.

Do you want to put that piece on, Amelie? That's it.

Well done, Nshira. Off you go, Caleb. Well done.

-We've got the two bottom pieces here.

-Empty your crate, Cook!

Not on yourself!

Brilliant. OK, over here, Amelie.

OK, Nshira. Oh, oh, oh!

-AUDIENCE:

-Boo!

-Back to the other side, me hearty.

That's it. Keep going, Riley. Keep going.

That's it. Go, go, go!

OK, Nshira. Off you go for me. Well done. Brilliant work, Riley.

Let's see. We need another piece for the back of the rat.

We need three more pieces.

Oh, no! Nshira's in! Keep going!

Oh, well done for knocking over the barrel. Come on, Caleb! That's it!

That's it. Keep going. Well done.

Oh, oh, oh! Bit wibbly-wobbly.

Oh, no!

You have to go back to the other side, Caleb.

Never mind. Don't worry.

That's it, Nshira. Bring a piece back.

You've got three pieces, but we need three more.

Oh, watch out for Nshira. That's it. Well done.

Brilliant. Well done. Amelie, off you go!

Hide a piece, Cook.

30 seconds to go. Only two pieces left to get.

Oh, no! Try again, Caleb!

Oh, Cook's hidden it!

That's it. Well done. Come on, Caleb. As quick as you can.

We're coming up to the last ten seconds. No!

Ten, nine...

-AUDIENCE:

-Eight, seven, six,

five, four, three...

Come on! Oh! BELL RINGS

Good try, me hearties.

Squawk, you've got the bird's-eye view. Over to you.

-SQUAWK!

-What splashing fun!

Cook poured fish on himself. Caleb stopped for a dip.

Riley raced back with a piece, followed by Nshira.

Amelie skipped off with the rat's head,

then joined Caleb for a paddle.

Good effort, but it was a lose.

Aw! Never mind, me hearties.

That was a very tricky game. But it doesn't matter because

-we could still win that jewel back in the Shipwreck Rummage.

-Ha-ha!

These jewels are safe, as long as I've got my little Sluggy with me.

-Isn't that right, Sluggy?

-Arrgh! Arrgh! Arrgh!

-Look how excited she is.

-Arrgh! Arrgh! Arrgh!

Well, Captain Captain, we could still win that jewel back later,

and then even Sluggy won't be able to stop you

-from going in the smelly ship's mess. Ha-ha-ha! AUDIENCE:

-Ew!

-BOTH:

-Here, Sluggy, Sluggy, Sluggy. Here, Sluggy, Sluggy, Sluggy.

Oh, Captain Captain is going to be so angry

if we're not looking after her new pet.

Here, Sluggy, Sluggy, Sluggy.

-Ooh!

-Ah!

-Oh, wait. No, give that back!

Stop it! Naughty! Down, Sluggy!

-Ooh, she's got the strength of a thousand limpets.

-Ah!

I see you're playing a little game with Sluggy.

Look out, Captain! Sluggy's gone wild.

I really think you need to release her back into the sea.

No, no, no! She's just trying to help you slop out.

Aren't you, Sluggy-Wuggy?

Oh! Oh!

I think they should just let Sluggy go,

and then we can let the pirates go into the smelly ship's mess.

But first, we have to win back my jewels.

Squawk, what's the next game, please?

The second game is...

The aim of the game is to fill in the holes

to finish the pirate picture.

All you have to do is run through the barrel

and find the right shaped pieces. But be careful!

Those pesky pirates will hide the pieces and try to shake you up.

-AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

-And here's the picture with the pieces missing.

Remember, you have to find the correct shaped pieces

to go into the correct shaped holes, much like this one here.

It's a picture of Squawk that goes in there very nicely

to start you off. The other pieces are through the spinning barrel

over there in those three crates. Have a good rummage around,

but watch out for Cook looking lovely with his seaweed hair.

And Line is spinning the barrel there like a puppy. Good boy!

Good boy, Line! Ha-ha-ha!

Caleb, will you go first for me, me hearty?

-All right, then, are we ready to play? ALL:

-Arrr-harrr!

Then Swashbucklers away!

Come on, Caleb. Look how speedy he is! Brilliant! Well done!

-Oh!

-That was amazing.

Dig around. That's it. Fantastic. OK.

Watch out for the seaweed. Get back on your feet again.

Off you go, Amelie. Well done! OK, let's find the right hole.

Where does it go? Brilliant.

Right, then, Nshira... Oh! That's it. Come on, Amelie.

Well done. Good girl. Up you get.

Come on. That's it. Good girl.

OK, Nshira, off you go.

-Throw in a bucket of fish, Cook.

-Right, so, we've got...

Oh, lots going in the barrel there.

The message in a bottle goes down there, Amelie. That's it.

Come on. That's it. Quick as you can. Oh, no!

You've dropped one of the pieces, as well. Up you jump.

Good boy, Nshira. Keep going.

That's it. We're halfway now.

Riley, off you go. Well done!

Now, where does this piece go?

Look at the different shapes.

Oh, yes, that's a good idea. Brilliant.

And can you slide it in the hole? Brilliant. Good boy.

Come on, then. Three more pieces to go.

Well done, Riley. Come on, Riley! You're doing really well.

Got the big barrel there - it's quite a big piece to bring across.

And, Caleb, off you go. Brilliant!

Do you want to help Riley put this one in? Where does this one go?

Oh, well done. That's it. Straight in there.

This is going to be close!

30 seconds to go. Amelie, off you go. Good girl.

Right, the treasure chest. Let's get that one in.

We're running out of time!

Ten, nine, eight...

-ALL:

-Seven, six, five,

four, three, two, one.

BELL RINGS Whoohoo-hoo!

That was so close, me hearties! Well done, Swashbucklers.

Squawk, you've got the bird's-eye view. Over to you.

Our Swashbucklers shook up those pesky pirates.

Caleb sprinted straight through to fetch the first piece.

Cook and Line's antics were no match for Nshira and Riley.

Amelie grabbed the final piece and popped it in place just in time.

-It's a win!

-AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

Yes! Wow! What an exciting finish. Well done, me hearties.

You won back our first jewel.

So, Captain Captain, you know the rule.

-ALL:

-Send down a jewel!

-Fine! Take it!

-ALL:

-Yeah!

Oh, wow! Look at this! Whoops! A very bouncy jewel today.

Ooh, let's get it out. There you go, Amelie.

Into the chest for me, please.

-Brilliant. And a big cheer. Come on! AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

Usually, I'd be really angry you've won a jewel,

but lucky for you, getting a pet has really calmed me down.

-Arrgh! Arrgh!

-CRASH!

Cook, Line, what's going on down there?!

Come on, Sluggy. Eat the seaweed cracker.

-Oh! Oh!

-Erm...

# Sluggy, eat your cracker, please

# A tasty cracker for your tea

# Please, Sluggy, pretty please... #

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

Cook, Line, what's going on in here?

Surely you can feed one cute little sea slug.

-Oh, she's cute all right, but she's wild!

-Yeah.

Are you sure we can't release her back into the sea?

No, absolutely not. She's my lovely little pet.

Look, I've made a nice little box for you to sleep in, Sluggy.

Erm, Captain, I don't think she wants to be in a box.

Ah, ah, ah!

-Ah-ha-ha!

-Arrgh! Arrgh!

-Oh, Sluggy!

-Weeeh!

-Arrgh!

-ALL SCREAM

-Where's Sluggy now?

-Oh, look, she's stopped.

-I think it's safe to come out.

-Excellent. Put her in the box, Cook.

Ooh, go carefully, Cook. Stay downwind.

Ooh, actually,

-she kind of looks sad.

-Nonsense!

-Look how excited she is.

-SADLY:

-Oh!

No, Line's right, Captain.

Aw, do you miss the open sea, Sluggy?

Don't be ridiculous! She's my cute little pet.

-You want to stay here with me, don't you, Sluggy-Wuggy?

-Arrgh!

Ooh! I think that was a no.

Oh. Well, I suppose Sluggy is a wild animal after all.

I guess we should say goodbye. Sluggy, you're free.

I'll miss you.

Mwah!

-BOTH:

-Bye, Sluggy!

-LAUGHTER

Ooh, Captain, you've got a little bit of slug slime.

Yuckety, yuckety, yuck!

-AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

-OK, me hearties,

you have to find four of my jewels now in the Shipwreck Rummage

to make sure one of those naughty pirates walks the plank.

To get us ready, let's do the Swashbuckle Salute one more time.

Let me see you all marching! Put your hand on your hearts!

-Here we go! Eye patch. AUDIENCE:

-Eye patch.

-Pirate hat. AUDIENCE:

-Pirate hat.

Swashbuckle cheer!

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harrr!

I think we're ready. Come on.

It's the...

The aim of the game is to collect the rest of Gem's jewels

that have been hidden around the shipwreck.

Use the map because X marks the spot

where each of the jewels can be found. But be careful!

Cook, Line and Captain Captain have hidden the jewels well,

and they must all be in the chest before the time runs out.

-AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

-OK, Swashbucklers,

you have to find four remaining jewels now.

Let me show you where they're hiding on the map.

The green jewel is up on the top deck in one of the birds' nests.

Then, on the middle deck,

we have the blue jewel in the crates of rats and mice.

And we have the purple jewel in the baskets of fish.

And down on the lower deck, we have the white jewel in the hammocks.

Caleb, Riley, you go first. Which colour will you go for?

-BOTH:

-Blue.

-All right, then. Are we ready to play?

-ALL:

-Arrr-harrr!

-Then Swashbucklers away!

It's raining fish as Caleb and Riley race to the rats and mice.

Squeeze in!

Ooh, he's gone the wrong way round. Sneaky!

Look out for those pirates!

# La-la-la! #

Oh, there's Line splashing in the pearls.

# La-la-la, la-la-la-la! #

Keep digging for that jewel.

Ah, there it is!

Brilliant! They've got the blue one.

-Where are you guys going next? BOTH:

-Purple!

-For purple.

We're up to the second deck. Wait a minute!

You, go! Brilliant! Well done! Fantastic! Into the chest.

-AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

-Three jewels to find.

Nshira and Amelie are angling for purple in the baskets of fish.

You'll have to be really quick.

Cook and Line are making that job a bit tricky.

Look out! Here comes a barrage of beach balls.

Can you find it? Dig around for that purple jewel.

It's gone right to the bottom!

We're halfway now.

-Oh, they've fished it out already!

-Boys, where are you going next?

Right to the top for the green one? OK, ready?

Amelie and Nshira, down you come. That's it. Brilliant.

Well done. And into the chest.

Very good. Well done.

Two jewels to go! Caleb and Riley pull themselves up the ramp.

They're heading for the top of the ship,

where the green is hidden in the birds' nests.

Ooh, we've got to be quick! We've got no time left.

It's up there somewhere, Riley.

-They're going to do it!

-That's it!

-That's mine!

Yes! They've got the green one. The last one

is the white one in the hammocks. As soon as they get back, you go.

Quick, Swashbucklers! It's a long way back!

They've got to be quicker! Quicker, quicker, quicker!

That's it, boys. Come on. We've only got 20 seconds left.

Come on, boys! Quick as you can. Come on, Caleb!

Ready? Come on! Quickly! Go, go, go, go!

Ten, nine, eight, seven...

Ooh, I don't think there's time!

..three, two, one! BELL RINGS

Oh! Captain Captain has rung the bell.

So, Squawk, you've got the bird's-eye view. Over to you.

Our Swashbucklers ran all over the ship.

Riley raked through the racks for blue,

and Amelie fished out purple.

Riley pecked in the birds' nests for green.

But time hung by a thread in the hammocks.

Sorry, Gem, it was a lose.

Aw, never mind, me hearties.

You tried really, really hard. I am very proud of you all.

But, sadly, none of the pirates get to walk the plank today,

so let's close the treasure chest.

-Have you had lots of fun, though? ALL:

-Yeah.

Brilliant. Let's hear it for my brave Swashbucklers!

-AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

Cooee, Gem! You seem to have missed something

-in the Shipwreck Rummage. Ha-ha-ha!

-It's all right, Captain Captain.

-We could still win it back next time.

-Oh, yes.

If you want it, come and get it. Ha-ha-ha!

# Na-na-na, na-na-na! # Hey, Line, catch!

-SPLASH!

-You'll never get the jewel!

-You'll never...get...

-LAUGHTER

To be fair, you really won't get it now.

-I'm going to...

-Just...

-I'm going to...

-Ah!

-I'm going to...!

-Ha-ha-ha! Don't worry, Captain Captain.

I'm sure there'll be plenty more jewels to win back next time.

-We'll see you soon for more Swashbuckle. AUDIENCE:

-Yeah!

-ALL:

-# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go

# Take on the pirates, yo-ho-ho!

# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go

# Take on the pirates, yo-ho-ho!

# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go

# Take on the pirates, go, go, go! #

-Swashbuckle cheer!

-Arrr-harrr!
