Felix wears a blue hoodie in front of a building with text that reads, tvokids Presents.

Felix says, IS THERE A DOCTOR
IN THE HOUSE?

In a window of the building is Annie in a pink dress.

Annie says, YES AND HE'S A MOUSE.

In a window above Annie, Dr. Cheddar waves.

A narrator says, FEEL BETTER WITH DR. CHEDDAR.

Dr. Cheddar wears a stethoscope. He looks up. Text on the building reads, Dr. Cheddar. Dr. Cheddar reads a book behind a desk.

(Ringing)

(Honking)

Dr. Cheddar answers a video call on a tablet. On the call, Felix wears a yellow striped shirt.

Dr. Cheddar says, DR. CHEDDAR HERE TO
HELP YOU FEEL BETTER.

(Recorder whistles)

Dr. Cheddar says, HELLO?

Annie comes on the video call playing a red recorder.

Dr. Cheddar says, OH, HI ANNIE.

Dr. Cheddar chuckles. Annie continues to play the recorder.

Dr. Cheddar says, HUH, OH.

Annie stops playing.

She says, HI, DR. CHEDDAR.
I'M LEARNING TO
PLAY THE RECORDER.
GUESS WHAT SONG I
WAS PLAYING? HUH?

Dr. Cheddar says, WELL, I'M NOT SURE.

Annie says, IT'S TWINKLE
TWINKLE LITTLE STAR.

Dr. Cheddar says, OH, OF CAUSE TWINKLE TWINKLE.
YES.
YES.

Dr. Cheddar nods. Annie plays a tune on her recorder.

She says, I KNOW WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE,
BUT IT DOESN'T SEEM TO
BE COMING OUT RIGHT.

Annie shakes the recorder.

She says, MAYBE IT'S BROKEN.

Annie shakes the recorder.

Dr. Cheddar asks, HOW LONG HAVE YOU
BEEN PLAYING IT? HMM.

Annie says, WELL, I JUST LEARNED IT TODAY.

Dr. Cheddar says, OH, SO YOU HAVEN'T HAD
MUCH CHANCE TO PRACTICE.

Annie says, HUH? PRACTICE?

Dr. Cheddar says, YES.
YOU NEED TO PLAY IT OVER
AND OVER UNTIL YOU LEARN ALL
THE NOTES TO TWINKLE TWINKLE.

Annie says, OHH.

She plays another tune on the recorder, stops, and sighs.

She says, I DON'T REALLY
REMEMBER ALL THE NOTES.

Dr. Cheddar says, AND THAT'S WHY WE PRACTICE.
SOMETIMES YOU JUST
HAVE TO TAKE IT SLOW
AND LEARN ALL THE NOTES.

Annie says, I THINK THIS IS GOING TO
TAKE LONGER THAN I THOUGHT.

She plays another tune on the recorder, stops, and sighs.

Dr. Cheddar says, WHY DON'T YOU CALL ME BACK
AFTER YOU PRACTICE, MHH.

Annie says, OKAY, I'LL PRACTICE

Dr. Cheddar says, GOODBYE, ANNIE.

Annie plays the recorder. Dr. Cheddar ends the call and returns to his book. Annie plays the recorder on a couch.

The narrator says, SO, ANNIE
PRACTICED AND PRACTICED…

Annie practices the recorder outside.

The narrator says, …AND PRACTICED SOME MORE, UNTIL.

(Ringing)

(Honking)

Dr. Cheddar answers a video call on the tablet.

(Recorder music plays)

He says, DR. CHEDDAR HERE TO,
OH, HELLO ANNIE.

Dr. Cheddar chuckles.

He sings, WONDER WHAT YOU ARE
HIGH UP ABOVE
THE KITCHEN SINK

Annie stops playing the recorder.

She says, HUH?

Dr. Cheddar says, OH, I SEEM TO HAVE
FORGOTTEN THE WORDS
TO TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR.

Annie says, OH, THAT'S OKAY.
MAYBE YOU CAN PRACTICE WITH
ME AND WE'LL TRY IT AGAIN.

Annie nods.

She says, OKAY.

Annie plays the song on her recorder.

Dr. Cheddar sings, HIGH UP ABOVE
THE PILE OF BOOKS…

Dr. Cheddar pauses.

He says, NO.

Annie says, DR. CHEDDAR?

Dr. Cheddar says, YES, ANNIE.

Annie says, YOU'RE GONNA NEED
A LOT OF PRACTICE.

Felix, Dr. Cheddar and Annie watch fireworks go off in the sky at night.

They say, WOAH!
