FADE IN:

EXT. TIMMY’S HOUSE - EARLY MORNING

CAMERA PUSHES IN AS WE...

DISSOLVE TO:

INT. TIMMY’S ROOM - SAME TIME

TIMMY snores away as his CLOCK RADIO goes off.

1 TIMMY(snores)

2 RADIO ANNOUNCER (VO)Good morning, Dimmsdale! Do you know why it’s good?

Timmy snaps awake!

3 TIMMYBecause today’s my birthday! Right?

4 RADIO ANNOUNCER (VO)Nope! Because tonight’s the night of the big Chip Skylark concert! And here’s his hit new song... My Shiny Teeth and Me!

ON FISHBOWL - A Chip Skylark song begins as WANDA excitedly swims out of the castle. She holds a CHIP SKYLARK POSTER. The music plays through the scene.

5 WANDA(Gleeful squeal) Chip Skylark!

Timmy walks up to the fishbowl.

6 TIMMYChip Skylark? That lame, pretty boy dork singer? He stinks!

COSMO swims out too.

7 COSMODoes not! I wish Chip Skylark was around when I had a band! We’d have rocked out loud! Did you know I used to play the electric triangle?

8 WANDA

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

But your band stunk!

9 COSMOBut with Chip we wouldn’t have!

10 TIMMYAHEM! Isn’t there something special you want to say to me? Considering what day today is?

LONG BEAT.

11 COSMOYeah! Pipe down so I can jam to this awesome Chip song!

Cosmo and Wanda begin dancing to the Chip Skylark tune. Cosmo pulls out an ELECTRIC TRIANGLE and plugs it into an OUTLET on the fish castle. He’s instantly fried.

12 TIMMYThank you, karma!

Timmy storms OS.

DISSOLVE TO:

INT. KITCHEN - A LITTLE LATER

Timmy excitedly sits down at the table.

13 TIMMYOh, boy! I can’t wait to see what Mom made for my special birthday breakfast!

A heaping stack of CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES is set in front of Timmy. Each cookie has the Turner’s PHONE NUMBER on it.

14 TIMMYYay! Cookies for breakfast!

(quizzically)With our phone number on them?

Timmy reaches for the cookies. A SPATULA comes down and smacks his hand. Widen to reveal MOM, dressed in an “I Love Chip Skylark” T-SHIRT.

15 MOMSure! Tonight’s the night of the Chip Skylark concert!

2

Page 4: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

DAD enters wearing the same “I Love Chip” shirt. Timmy reaches for another cookie. Dad slaps it out of his hand.

16 DADYour Mom and I are gonna throw these to Chip while he’s on stage!

17 MOM And maybe he’ll call us and offer to be your big brother!

18 TIMMYWhat?! You guys are going to the concert? Tonight of all nights? What’s so special about Chip Skylark?

Dad holds up a CHIP POSTER.

19 DADOpen your eyes, Son, that teen’s delicious!

DISSOLVE TO:

EXT. TIMMY’S HOUSE - EARLY EVENING

Timmy sits -- still fuming as Cosmo and Wanda -- in fairy form -- continue to dance to Chip’s music.

20 TIMMYStupid Chip Skylark making everyone forget my birthday. Well, if nobody remembered, then I’m not gonna tell ‘em. If they love me, they’ll remember on their own.

Mom and Dad walk in dressed head-to-toe in CHIP SKYLARK STUFF. Cosmo and Wanda poof into standing LAMPS.

21 DADGood gosh, Son! We forgot to tell you something! We have a special surprise for you behind this very door!

22 TIMMYA surprise?!? What it is it? WHAT?!

Dad opens the front door, revealing VICKY.

23 DADIt’s Vicky! And she’s early!

3

Page 5: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

24 VICKYHello, Mr. and Mrs. Turner! Hello, kid who’s not Chip Skylark!

Dad pulls out a TREASURE CHEST, bulging with CASH and hands it to Vicky.

25 MOMShe’s being paid quadruple to baby-sit so we can go to the Chip Skylark concert tonight!

26 DADAnd there’s extra money in there so you kids can watch the concert on pay- per-view! Have a fun, Chip-filled night!

Mom and Dad exit. Vicky hits the REMOTE CONTROL and PRESTO! We see a NEWSCASTER - CHET UBETCHA - on TV talking about, you guessed it, not Timmy’s birthday.

27 CHET UBETCHAWelcome to Chip-watch Tonight! I’m your host, Chet Ubetcha, and we’re mere hours away from the live broadcast of the big Chip Skylark concert! But first, birthday announcements!

Timmy perks up.

28 CHET UBETCHAHa! Just kidding! With Chip Skylark on this planet, who cares when you were born?

We hear the pounding of nails. WIDEN TO REVEAL that Vicky is nailing a CHIP SKYLARK POSTER to the wall. The Poster has FLASHING NEON TEETH.

29 VICKYMove it, Twerp!

Vicky plunks down on the couch, sending Timmy flying to the floor near his Godparents, who are still lamps.

30 WANDAAre you okay, not Chip?

Timmy stands up. He’s right in front of the poster. The teeth flash on and off in front of him.

31 TIMMYEverybody forgot about my birthday because of Chip stinkin’ Skylark!

4

Page 6: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

32 COSMOHey! It’s not his fault he turned out so delicious!

PUSH IN ON THE POSTER as...

33 TIMMYYeah, well it’s HIS fault my birthday stinks! You know what I wish? I wish something bad would happen to him!

“DA RULES” appear. Wanda starts reading.

34 WANDAWell, you just can’t wish him maimed.

35 TIMMYOkay. Then I wish...

36 COSMOOr injured.

37 TIMMYThen...

38 WANDAOr beaten.

39 TIMMYUh...

40 COSMOOr dead.

41 TIMMYFINE! I wish the worst possible, non-lethal thing could happen to Chip Skylark right now!

The Godparents reluctantly wave their wands. POOF! We hear a car crash noise outside. THE DOOR BELL rings. Vicky opens the door, revealing... CHIP SKYLARK! In all his shiny-toothed, pretty-boy glory. Behind him, we see his SPORTS CAR wrapped around a tree.

42 VICKYOHMYGOSH! IT’S CHIP SKYLARK! AAAAAAAAAAAA!

HEARTS swirl around Vicky as she excitedly bounds around the gorgeous boy singer.

5

Page 7: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

43 CHIP SKYLARKHi! I was just in a non-lethal accident in my record company’s car, and all my record company’s cell phones, pagers, and two way radios went out! May I use your phone?

44 TIMMY(to Godparents)

What is he doing HERE? I wished for something bad to happen to him! Where’s the bad?

Vicky hands Chip her CELL PHONE.

45 VICKYHere, Chip! Use my special phone!

Chip hits a button on the phone. <PSSST!> -- KNOCK OUT GAS squirts out of the receiver into his face.

46 CHIP SKYLARK(woozily)

Tuesday is applesauce day...

46A CHIP SKYLARK(snores)

Chip falls to the ground, fast asleep. Vicky instantly wraps him from head to toe in CHAINS and drags him OS.

47 TIMMYHA! The worst possible thing that could happen to Chip is to be stuck here with Vicky! Like me!

48 WANDAYou know, Timmy, that’s wasn’t a very nice wish.

49 TIMMY(More fun than mean)

Hey, you’re sharp. You think everybody will be “nice” when they find out Chip isn’t making it to the concert tonight?

LONG BEAT. Wanda and Timmy look at Cosmo.

50 COSMOOh, was I supposed to think?

DISSOLVE TO:

EXT. DIMMSDALE ULTRADOME - SAME TIME

Page 8: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

Chet UBetcha, holding a MICROPHONE, talks to the camera as crowds of TEENAGE GIRLS pour into the stadium.

51 CHET UBETCHAWe’re here LIVE at the Dimmsdale Ultradome, where there is still no sign of teen singing sensation, Chip Skylark.

Mom and Dad cross by in the BG.

52 CHET UBETCHA Sir? You seem to be the only man here at the Chip Skylark concert!

53 DADWell, of course! That teen’s delicious!

54 CHET U BETCHAThat he is, Sir. That he is.

(to Camera)We’ll be back with more Chip updates, after this message... about Chip!

CUT TO:

INT. TIMMY’S BEDROOM - A LITTLE LATER

Chip lies chained spread-eagle on Timmy’s bed. Vicky shows Chip SEVERAL WEDDING DRESSES. Timmy, standing by the fish bowl, is loving every minute of this.

55 VICKYDo you like this one that makes me look like Mrs. Chip Skylark? Or this one that makes me look like Mrs. Chip Skylark.

56 CHIP SKYLARKI don’t think it matters. I think you’ll make a great Mrs. Skylark... Mrs. Skylark.

57 VICKY(SQUEALS W/GLEE) I LOVE YOU CHIP SKYLARK! I’m gonna call all my friends and invite ‘em to the wedding!

(beat)First I’m gonna find some friends!

Vicky runs OS.

58 CHIP SKYLARK(sighs) Another day, another whackadoo holding me against my will.

7

Page 9: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

ON TIMMY AND COSMO AND WANDA (IN FISH BOWL)

59 TIMMYWow. For a guy being held against his will, he sure seems nice.

60 COSMOSeems shmeems! He is nice! Just like he sings in his hit song, “I’m so nice!”

Cosmo and Wanda wave their wands and their fishbowl turns into a DANCE CLUB, complete with Disco ball and flashing lights. They begin to dance.

61 COSMO AND WANDA(start singing “I’m so nice!”)

62 TIMMYYou guys sing. I’m gonna go gloat.

63 WANDAIf you free his hands, get me an autograph!

Timmy leaps up on Chip’s chain covered chest.

64 TIMMY Hi, Chip! I’m Timmy! Having a cruddy day? Like me?

65 CHIP SKYLARKAw, the only cruddy day I ever have, is a day when I disappoint my fans.

(beat; then panicked)

66 CHIP SKYLARK (CONT.)WAIT! I didn’t disappoint you, did I!?

67 TIMMYYeah! Because of you, your fame, and your stupid concert, everyone forgot today was my birthday!

68 CHIP SKYLARKAw... I’m sorry to hear that, little guy. Reach into my coat pocket.

69 TIMMYOkay....

Timmy reaches inside Chip’s jacket and pulls out a fully wrapped BIRTHDAY PRESENT.

8

Page 10: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

70 CHIP SKYLARK There you go! Happy Birthday, Timmy!

Timmy opens the present and it’s a brand new CRASH NEBULA ACTION FIGURE.

71 TIMMYOhmygosh! It’s the brand new, Crash Nebula action figure! This hasn’t even been released yet! How’d you get it?

72 CHIP SKYLARKI got it for my birthday from the record company. Today’s my birthday, too.

73 TIMMYReally?

74 CHIP SKYLARKYeah. But they scheduled my concert on my birthday, so I haven’t even had a chance to celebrate it.

(sighs)Sometimes it’s hard to be famous.

(pause)And talented.

75 TIMMYAnd delicious!

76 CHIP SKYLARKWhat?

77 TIMMYMy Dad said that.

78 CHIP SKYLARKHeh. Dads say weird things! Mine once described President Eisenhower as scrumptious.

79 TIMMYWow! Both our Dads are dorks!

Timmy and Chip share a hearty laugh.

79A CHIP SKYLARK AND TIMMY(laugh)

80 CHIP SKYLARK ...Ow! Sorry. I’d have laughed harder, but these chains are crushing my lungs.

9

Page 11: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

81 TIMMYI’m Sorry.

82 CHIP SKYLARKWell, (cough) it’s not like you wished for this to happen. (cough)

83 TIMMYRight... (beat)

Timmy walks over to the fishbowl.

84 TIMMY Wow. I thought Chip would be a big jerk because he’s a big star. He isn’t such a bad guy after all.

85 WANDAWe told you!

Timmy looks at the Crash doll. Then thinks for a beat.

86 TIMMYI wish Chip was free and out of Vicky’s clutches!

The godparents heroically wave their wands. A non-magical, farting sound is heard.

87 TIMMY Oh, great. The “wand-not-working” <<fart noise>> noise. What’s wrong?

88 WANDAWell, you know how the rules say we can’t use our magic to destroy true love?

Vicky enters wearing a wedding dress. She speaks to Chip.

89 VICKYHello, my love who I truly love with all the love in my heart! Love!

90 COSMOWell, there ya go!

Vicky turns on Timmy’s TV.

91 VICKYYou can watch this while I find someone who will perform a marriage ceremony between a crazed fan and a celebrity teen hostage.

10

Page 12: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

(beat)To the internet!

Vicky exits.

ON TV: Chet UBetcha is now inside the Ultradome, amongst a sea of unruly and increasingly impatient Chip Skylark FANS. They are already in the beginning stage of a riot.

92 CHET U BETCHAIt’s a scene of mass chaos here at the Dimmsdale Ultradome, where everyone is angrily asking the same question? Where is Chip Skylark?

ON TV: GIRL FAN #1 holds a baseball BAT and GARBAGE CAN LID.

93 GIRL FAN #1If Chip doesn’t show up, I’m going cause a major public disturbance!

ON TV: Mom and Dad

94 MOMIf Chip doesn’t show up, I’m going to punish our child for no reason!

95 DADTimmy, if you’re watching this, run!

Timmy turns the TV off. Chip freaks out.

96 CHIP SKYLARKOh no! Fans! Hundreds of ‘em! Disappointed! My fault!! Guilt growing! Teeth becoming less shiny!

Chip’s teeth start to “yellow up.” Wanda screams in terror.

97 WANDAAAAAAGGGHHH!!!!!!

98 COSMOOh no! Chip’s losing his boyish charm ‘cuz he thinks he disappointed his fans!

99 TIMMYOh, man. I’ve gotta get Chip to the concert before all those women and my Dad tear the town apart!

(to Wanda)You and I have get Chip out of here!

11

Page 13: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

(to Cosmo)

100 TIMMY (CONT.)You gotta get to the concert and stall by any means necessary.

Cosmo pulls out his electric triangle.

101 COSMOCool! I’m gonna get my old band back together!

102 TIMMY AND WANDANO!

Cosmo disappears as we...

CUT TO:

INT. DIMMSDALE ULTRADOME - SAME TIME

The stage is dark. The crowd is stomping their feet.

103 CROWDWe want Chip!

104 DADOr else!

105 CROWDWe want Chip!

106 DADOr else!

A SPOTLIGHT hits the center stage. Cosmo floats in front of a standing MICROPHONE.

107 COSMO(deep announcer voice)

Hello Dimmsdale! Are you ready for Chip Skylark?!

108 CROWD(CHEERS HAPPILY)

109 COSMOWell he’s not here yet!

A TOMATO instantly hits him on the side of the head.

110 COSMO

12

Page 14: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

Instead. Please welcome your opening act...

Another tomato hits him.

111 COSMO On the Pan flute... Pan!

A spotlight comes up on PAN - the half-goat God of his own flute. A tomato hits Pan somewhere on his head.

112 COSMO On drums... Santa!

A spotlight comes up, revealing SANTA CLAUS, wearing a muscle shirt, his hair in a pony tail and shades. Santa gets hit with a tomato.

113 SANTAYou’re getting coal this year.

He gets hit with another tomato.

114 COSMOAnd on guitar, blues great Eric Clapton!

We see an animated version of the real ERIC CLAPTON (or any other classic, immortal rock star that would agree to do this)on the stage with Cosmo, Pan and Santa.

115 ERIC CLAPTONI also do birthdays and Bar Mitzvahs!

Cosmo raises his triangle.

116 COSMOAnd I’m Cosmo! And together... we’re “The Fairies!”

They launch into one of their big hits. (A song to be written especially for this episode.)

117 THE FAIRIES(Singing song)

118 ERIC CLAPTON(Punches one word in the song, does a musical sting)

DISSOLVE TO:

INT. TIMMY’S BEDROOM - A LITTLE LATER

13

Page 15: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

Timmy stands outside his bathroom. We hear a <FLUSH>. A moment later, Chip, still chained to Timmy’s bed, hops out of the bathroom.

119 CHIP SKYLARK(relieved) Ahhhh...

120 TIMMYFeel better?

121 CHIP SKYLARKYeah. I didn’t have to go to the bathroom, but the sound of flushing calms me down.

Chip leans back and the bed plops back onto the floor. Timmy tries to undo the chains by hand.

122 TIMMYI’m sorry you have to spend your birthday with Vicky.

123 CHIP SKYLARKI get to leave! Dude, I’m sorry you have to spend every day with Vicky.

124 TIMMYThat’s Vicky for ya! Icky with a “V!”

125 CHIP SKYLARKHey! Icky Vicky! I could write a song about that!

(singing)Icky Vicky! Vicky icky! Icky Vicky!

126 TIMMY(struggling to undo the chains)

Ugh! Urgh! This is no good!(to Wanda, hidden under the bed)

I wish I had bolt cutters.

POOF! Timmy reaches under his bed and finds BOLT CUTTERS. He starts trying to free Chip.

127 CHIP SKYLARKThis is the worst possible, non-lethal thing that could have happened to me.

The bolt cutters break.

14

Page 16: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

128 TIMMY(to Wanda)

PLASMA TORCH.(it appears in Timmy’s hand)

I know. And I thought it was funny, because I thought you were going to be a big, fat celebrity jerk!

The torch fizzles out. Timmy glares at Wanda.

129 WANDA(whispering)

Vicky loves him! My magic can’t do anything to help you!

130 TIMMYI was totally wrong about you, Chip. Just because you’re rich and famous, doesn’t mean you’re a jerk.

131 CHIP SKYLARKActually, I’m not all that rich. The record company pays for everything! I’m broke! But if the fans knew that, they might not love me anymore.

132 TIMMYBut neither would Vicky!

133 CHIP SKYLARKWell, there’s that.

134 TIMMY(thinking to self) She wouldn’t love you anymore... That’s it!!!

Timmy whispers to Wanda. Wanda nods and vanishes as Vicky enters, followed by a COMPUTER NERD.

135 VICKYHi, Chip darling! It’s time for our wedding!

136 VICKY Look who I found on the internet! The only Justice of the Peace on Earth who will marry someone against their will!

We hear a POOF! outside of Timmy’s door. The Nerd starts the wedding.

15

Page 17: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

137 COMPUTER NERDHey, Chip.

138 CHIP SKYLARKHey, Ed.

139 COMPUTER NERDAnother day, another whackadoo, eh? Anyway...

(reading)We are gathered here today to forcibly bond these two teens against their will. Is there anyone here, besides the groom, who has a reason these two should not be wed?

Wanda, now full-sized, wingless and crown-less, kicks the door open. She stands next to a very officious RECORD EXECUTIVE who holds a STACK OF BILLS.

140 WANDAHe does!

141 CHIP SKYLARKOh my Gosh! It’s the guy from the record company!

142 RECORD EXECUTIVEThanks for the tip, pink-haired mystery woman!

143 WANDADon’t mention it!

144 RECORD EXECUTIVE(to Vicky)

Since you’re going to be Chip Skylark’s wife, you get Chip Skylark’s debts!

He starts handing Vicky bill after bill.

145 RECORD EXECUTIVEThis is for the car. This is his cell bill. This is for the pager. And this is for uh... everything else.

146 COMPUTER NERDI now pronounce you broke and broke!

147 VICKYWhat? I thought you were rich!

148 TIMMYNope! He’s just pretty and talented!

16

Page 18: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

149 VICKYBut the Chip-Plane!

150 CHIP SKYLARKThat belongs to the record company.

151 VICKYThe Chip-copter?

152 TIMMYRecord company’s.

153 VICKYNot the...the...teeth?

154 CHIP SKYLARKI’m afraid so.

155 VICKYNOOOOOOOOO! You broke loser creep! I can’t love you! You can’t afford to move me out of this rat-hole town!

With the spell broken, the chains instantly break and fall to the floor in pieces. Chip excitedly jumps to his feet.

156 VICKY This wedding’s off!

Vicky storms OS. The record executive and computer nerd follow. The computer nerd waves to Chip as he leaves.

157 COMPUTER NERDSee ya next town, Chip!

158 CHIP SKYLARKNot if I see you first, Dude!

Vicky slams the door.

159 VICKYJerk!

160 CHIP SKYLARK(to Timmy)

You’re right! She is Icky!

Chip checks his watch.

161 CHIP SKYLARKOh no! I’ll never get to the concert in time!

17

Page 19: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

162 TIMMYHere ya go, Chip!

Timmy hands Chip Vicky’s cell phone.

163 TIMMYUse this! Let ‘em know you’re on your way!

Chip hits a button and gets blasted with knockout gas again.

164 CHIP SKYLARKBut Mommy, I don’t want to go to band camp...

164A CHIP SKYLARK(snores)

He drops to the ground, out like a light. Wanda poofs into fairy form. Timmy waves his hand in front of Chip’s face.

165 TIMMYOut like a light. Which means he can’t see when I do this......I wish we were at the concert!

Wanda raises her wand and POOF! They all disappear.

CUT TO:

INT. DIMMSDALE ULTRADOME - SAME TIME

Cosmo, Pan, Santa and Eric Clapton are cornered by the angry mob. Eric swings his guitar like a light-saber, fending off flying tomatoes and other assorted VEGETABLES.

166 MOBCHIP! CHIP! WE WANT CHIP!!!

167 ERIC CLAPTONBack, you monsters! Stay back!

A bag of GARBAGE smacks Cosmo, covering him completely.

168 COSMOHey, I think they really like us!

The mob closes in. From the side of the stage, we see a flash of light and hear a “POOF!”

169 TIMMY (VO)Ladies... and Timmy Turner’s Dad...

18

Page 20: 118 The Boys and the Band

The Fairly OddParents: “The Boys And The Band” Recording Script By Butch Hartman and Steve Marmel 6/13/01

The crowd stops in their tracks. Timmy’s Dad, holding a sack of tomatoes, perks up.

170 DADHey, that’s me!

Dad gets hit with a tomato.

BACKSTAGE: We see Timmy, Wanda and Chip Skylark (still groggy). Wanda holds Chip on a wheeled baggage CART. Timmy holds a microphone.

171 TIMMYAre you ready to rock?

172 CROWDYeah!

173 TIMMYAre you ready to not tear apart the opening act?

174 COSMO AND HIS BANDYEAH!

175 TIMMYThen get ready for...

Timmy pushes the cart, wheeling Chip onto the stage. Chip stops directly in front of the microphone.

176 CHIP SKYLARK(groggy)

New hair? What’s wrong with my old hair?

177 TIMMYCHIP SKYLARK!

The crowd goes wild. A spotlight hits Chip who, like a robot who has suddenly been plugged in, wakes up. His teeth even go back to their normal, shiny selves!

177A CROWD(cheers)

178 CHIP SKYLARKHuh? What?

(To Timmy)Dude! How’d we get here so fast?

179 TIMMYUh...the power of music?

WIDEN TO REVEAL that Chip’s gone.

ANGLE ON STAGE - A SPOTLIGHT hits Timmy.

185 CHIP SKYLARKTimmy Turner!

Timmy raises his head. Chip remembered!

186 TIMMYCool! Let’s get ready to rock!

Timmy holds his hand up. A microphone flies into his hand like a light-saber.

187 DADWhat? Forgot his birthday?

188 MOMWe’d never forget your birthday, Tommy!

189 TIMMYTIMMY!

190 DADChippy!

IRIS OUT
