# Welcome to The Furchester Hotel. #

Oh, hello!

CLUCKING

Yes? Nice job, Mrs Clucksmore. Thank you.

Funella, dear, I think the lift's ready.

Just in time! The hotel inspector could be here at any minute.

Oh!

Wait, Elmo still doesn't get it. What's a hotel inspector?

It's someone who comes and takes a look at the hotel

-to make sure it's a nice place for guests.

-Ah!

And if the inspector likes what he sees,

he might give The Furchester another half star rating.

-And that would make one whole star.

-A dream come true.

-Wait until you see the lift!

-Oh, yeah!

Mrs Clucksmore just put in a new voice command system.

No more buttons to push, you just say where you want to go.

Ahem.

Take us to floor two.

LIFT: 'Please cluck the floor number you would like to go to.'

Oh, dear. I think it only understands chicken.

The inspector might not like that.

Cluck, cluck.

'Two clucks. Going to floor two.'

-LIFT DINGS

-I think this could be a problem.

All our beds are now automatic.

They go up and down with the touch of a button, see?

BED WHIRS

THEY LAUGH

-Yeah!

-Fancy!

Oh! Wh...?! Ah!

-HE PANTS

-Better tell Funella.

So, the beds and the lift aren't working properly?

Oh, dear, this is a problem.

The inspector's going to be here at any minute.

There's no time to fix them.

-What are we going to do?

-We need a plan.

Let's put our furry heads together and think.

Fuzzawubba!

That gives me a monster idea.

-We just won't let the inspector see anything go wrong.

-How?

We'll distract him.

You know, get him to focus on something else instead.

BELL DINGS

Let's just hope the Hotel Inspector doesn't find out!

Find out what?

Oh! How excited we are to see you, inspector.

We welcome you with furry arms.

No, no, no. No time for hugging. Sorry, we must get down to business.

I've got a list of all the things I need to inspect in this hotel.

Remember the plan. If anything goes wrong, distract him.

Gotcha!

Perhaps you'd like to start with a cookie.

-Cookie!

-Cookie! I'll write that down.

Cookie!

-Mr Hotel Inspector, look, look! Elmo can do a handstand.

-Oh, yes!

-Ah.

-Ta-da!

Yes, that's very amusing.

But I have to get to work inspecting, now.

Well, there is so much to see here in the lobby.

Yes, guests love to relax here, it's so peaceful and calm.

GONG SOUNDS

What's that?

Tea time!

MONSTERS ALL SHOUT

Let me show you the office. Right now!

-Tea time!

-Tea time!

-Tea time!

-This way, please.

-Oh, OK.

Oh. It's very cosy.

I think I've seen all I need to see in here.

What is going on out there?

What is all this hubbub about?

-Fergus, could you show the inspector to the kitchen, darling?

-Certainly.

I gave it a spit and polish this morning.

-Without the spit, obviously. This way.

-Oh.

Excuse me, what's happened to the lift?

There are no buttons to press.

Mr Dull! All you have to do is cluck.

Cluck?

LIFT: 'One cluck, going to floor one.'

But I'm on three!

Well, the kitchen looks fine, Miss Furchester.

-Oh, good!

-Now I'd like to see the upstairs guest rooms, please.

-We can take the lift. ALL:

-No!

-Why don't we take the stairs? You know, for exercise.

-Exercise.

Well, I suppose I could use the exercise.

THEY SIGH

For the last time, lift, I want to go to floor three.

Cluck, cluck, cluck.

'Three clucks. Going to floor three.'

Finally. Now I can go to my room for a rest.

LIFT DINGS

THEY CLUCK

'Five clucks. Going to floor five.'

No! Not floor five!

CLUCKING

OK, and here's the room.

Yes, this room is very pleasant.

Let's see what the bed is like, shall we?

BOTH: No!

And why not?

Um... Phoebe?

Because I have to show you

how many towels I can balance on my head.

Towels? What?

-It's four!

-Yes, that's very impress... No, look!

I have to inspect every part of this hotel,

and that includes the beds.

Phoebe, Phoebe!

Ah! Very firm. Very clean.

Yes. Very nice indeed.

THEY SIGH

Ah!

What? What's going on?

Oh!

Golly! Goodness me!

Excuse me!

Whoa!

Please get me out of here!

That bed is terrible. I'll be telling my boss about this.

Mr Hotel Inspector, Mr Hotel Inspector!

-I don't think our plan is working any more.

-Oh!

-Come on.

-CLUCKING

-I'm free! I'm free!

This entire hotel is out of control!

I'm so sorry, inspector.

-Here, have a cookie.

-Well, thank you very much.

Cookie!

Nom nom nom! Thank you!

-There we are.

-That's it! This hotel is a disaster.

-It fails its inspection. BOTH:

-Fails?!

Does this mean we won't get that other half star?

I don't think it deserves any stars at all.

In fact, I'm taking back the half star that you already had.

But who will want to stay in a no-star hotel?

We won't have any guests.

-This is a huge problem.

-This is a catastrophe.

Please, sir, I know a lot of things went wrong today,

but we love our hotel. We care so much about our guests.

Yes.

And we're so sorry for everything you've gone through.

You poor inspector, you need a big hug.

Oh! No, no, no.

I said none of that.

Actually... Actually, that's quite nice.

-Oh, I suppose you really do care. ALL:

-Yes!

Ruff, ruff! Ruff, ruff!

-He says he loves the lift.

-Ruff, ruff!

And it's the greatest hotel ever.

Well, perhaps I've been a bit too hard on your hotel.

-Does that mean we passed the inspection?

-Good heavens, no!

But I suppose I can let you keep your half star.

-ALL:

-Yay!

-ELMO:

-Thank you!

Now, if you'll all excuse me, it's been a very hard day,

-and I'm going home to get some rest.

-Of course.

-Thank you so much, Inspector.

-This calls for a celebration!

ALL: Yay!

Oh, no! Furchesters! I'm stuck! Help!

-Oh!

-Oh, boy! We'll help you, Mr Hotel Inspector, sir.

Help, Furchesters, please! I'm stuck!
