Four Go Away Together The Large Family

And I want to take my toy cars, and my dinosaur book,

-and...and!

-Luke! You're only going to Granny and Grandpa's for one night.

I know, but I like having all my toys with me.

There. All safely packed.

LUCY: I'm really looking forward to sleeping at Granny and Grandpa's.

Yeah, it'll be really fun. I love sleeping at other people's houses.

It's like being on holiday!

It's not a holiday to me.

I don't like it.

If it was a real holiday, Mum and Dad would be coming with us.

I know. Lester, Laura,

I want you to make sure that you take special care of Luke.

There will be a prize for the best carer.

The one with the most points. Let's see. Lester,

-you can ride your skateboard indoors for a whole day.

-Yes!

And Laura, if you win,

I'll cook you your favourite supper when we get home.

And whoever wins, you'll both get a big, huge, enormous hug.

-What do you say?

-OK.

-Good idea, Mum!

I know. Let's sing a song to cheer Luke up.

BOTH: # We'll both look after Luke

# We'll both look after Luke

# If he feels sad without Mum and Dad We'll both look after Luke

# We'll both look after Luke

# We'll both look after Luke

# If he feels sad without Mum and Dad We'll both look after Luke. #

Lester, Laura, Luke!

Oh, I'm so glad you're coming to stay.

We're going to have lots of fun, aren't we, Luke?

Oh, yes. Thanks, Granny.

So if it's OK, we'll pick them up at about five o'clock tomorrow.

That's fine, dear.

That'll give us a nice long time to go out or stay in

and have lots of fun.

-Well, I think it's time we got going then.

-Oh, don't worry, Luke.

I'm sure you'll have fun.

But I don't want you to go.

See you tomorrow!

Have fun now, children.

HORN TOOTS

LAURA: Have fun at the wedding!

Oh, I do hope they're going to be OK.

Of course they will, dear.

Don't worry. Granny and Grandpa will look after them.

Well, looking after Luke starts here.

Do you want to play football, Luke? Can we, Grandpa? Please?

Great idea, Lester. I'll go and look for the ball.

You can play with Grandpa and Laura, Luke.

-I'll play with Lucy and Granny, OK?

-All right, Lester.

Yes! I'll win the prize in Mum's game, and I'll skateboard

in the kitchen as soon as we get home!

Yes! Go for it, Luke! Shoot!

Wo-ah! Owww!

LAURA: Luke, are you OK?!

Where are you hurt?

It's nothing serious, Laura.

Luke just fell over after his fantastic shot.

Yes, but it hurts!

There, look, Luke. Lucy's come over to give you a cuddle.

Oh, thanks, Lucy.

Lucy obviously wants to win the prize for best carer as well!

Mum told us that the one who looks after Luke the best

and helps him to have good time will win a special prize,

and a big, huge, enormous hug.

What a lovely idea.

Well, Luke, I should think you'd like a quieter game now.

Hey, Granny, I've got a great idea.

Luke's missing Mum and Dad, so do you have any old pictures of Dad?

It could be fun and it would cheer him up. Right?

It might, I suppose.

And that's a point for me. Thanks, Luke.

Hmmm!

Look at him here.

I remember when I took this photo.

He scored three goals in this match. He was a good football player.

Just like you, Luke.

Thanks, Laura.

GIGGLING

What kind of fancy-dress party was Dad going to there?

It wasn't fancy dress. He was just dressed to go out for supper.

In those clothes?! Luke, can you imagine wearing clothes like that?

Ew, yuck!

THEY LAUGH

Is that Dad's old bedroom?

Looks a bit like your spare room.

That's right, Lester. That's exactly what it is.

Is that where we're going to sleep tonight?

-Yes, Luke.

-I know!

Let's go and see it now and unpack.

Yes, I'd like to see where I'll sleep.

I prefer it in the picture. Looks a bit boring now.

Where have all Dad's toys gone?

LAURA: Yes, where did you put Dad's toys?

-Did you throw them away?

-I can't remember.

Maybe they're in the attic.

I didn't know you had an attic, Grandpa.

That's exciting, isn't it, Luke? Let's go there now

and see if we can discover any of Dad's old treasure!

Thanks, Lester.

And that's two points for me.

Hmmm!

ALL: Wow!

It's amazing! I love this place!

Can we sleep here, Grandpa, please?

Well, I don't think you'd be very comfy up here, Luke.

I'd forgotten there were so many things here.

Did Dad used to read this?

Was this his favourite ball?

Yes, I think it was.

Look, Lucy - the shirt we saw in the pictures!

Granny, can we dress up with it?

And can we make a show?

Of course you can, dear.

I know! Let's make a show about Dad's life!

LUKE: That would be fun!

I suppose it's not a bad idea, Laura.

Come on, Lester. It'll be great! Let's do it!

Ho-ho. All right,

let's move the attic downstairs, then.

And another point to Laura!

Yes!

Lucy, you play Dad when he was a baby, OK?

Take the teddy bear.

Luke, you can play Dad when he was five.

Going to school, for example. Would you like that?

I'd rather be Dad when he played with his pedal car.

OK. What about you, Laura?

I don't mind playing Dad at school. Was he good at schoolwork, Granny?

Well, he was quite good. And he did like school.

He had lots of friends there.

A bit like me, then!

I know. I'll do Dad playing football.

And I'll take some pictures.

LUKE: I've got an idea.

Why don't we give Dad a surprise?

Let's put his bedroom back to the way it was when he was little

and do our show when they come to pick us up tomorrow.

Yeah! Great idea, Luke! A point for you!

CLATTERING

ALL: Yeah!

And another point to me. I'm winning 3-2.

Why don't you stop scoring points now?

The competition was a great idea,

-but now I feel fine!

-OK.

Goodnight, my cherubs.

Have sweet dreams.

Are you happy to sleep in your dad's room?

Oh, yes, Granny.

I said I wanted to sleep in the attic,

-and this is just like it.

-Night!

-LAURA: Goodnight!

LUCY: Goodnight!

HORN TOOTS

ALL: Mum! Dad!

Hello, children!

It's so lovely to see you all again.

Did you have a good time?

Were you OK, Luke?

I'm fine. Quick! Come and see our surprise!

Larry Large was born on a sunny day in June.

THEY CHUCKLE

I can't wait to see this!

As he grew older, Larry Large used to love his pedal car.

But very soon, he discovered football.

Goal!

Ta-da!

I don't believe it!

You put all my things back the way they were.

At school, Larry was not a brilliant student.

THEY LAUGH

But at football, he was the best.

Thank you, Granny. I had a great weekend with you and Grandpa.

So did we!

Do you think I can come again soon?

Ple-e-ease?

Of course you can, Luke.

We had fun too, you know.

You can come whenever you want, you will always be welcome.

CAR ENGINE STARTS

So, Luke, who won the bet?

Lester or Laura?

They both won. So Lester gets to ride his skateboard indoors,

and Laura gets her favourite supper. And we'd all love a big, huge hug!

THEY LAUGH
