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 wears a stethoscope. He waves.

A narrator says, YOU’LL FEEL BETTER WITH DR. CHEDDAR.

Text on the building reads, Dr. Cheddar. Inside, Dr. Cheddar works on a tablet at a desk. He mumbles to himself.

Dr. Cheddar says, HOSPITAL? OH MY.

He looks away from the tablet.

Dr. Cheddar says, OH, HELLO EVERYONE.
DR. CHEDDAR HERE TO
HELP YOU FEEL BETTER.
I JUST GOT AN EMAIL
FROM FELIX'S MOTHER
TELLING ME HE HAD A SERIOUS
ALLERGIC REACTION YESTERDAY.
HMM, LET'S CALL HIM
AND SEE HOW HE IS, HMM?
YES.

Dr. Cheddar types on a keyboard below his tablet.

He looks at the tablet and says, HELLO, FELIX.
HOW ARE YOU?

In a video call, Felix stands by a table with painting supplies and various toys.

Felix says, HI, DR. C. I'M BETTER NOW.

Dr. Cheddar says, GOOD.
OH, WHAT HAPPENED?

Felix says, I ATE SOMETHING
I WAS ALLERGIC TO.

Dr. Cheddar says, OH MY.

Felix says, AFTER I ATE IT, MY SKIN
STARTED TO GET ITCHY,
AND MY LIPS GOT ALL PUFFY.

Dr. Cheddar says, WHAT DID YOU DO?

Felix says, MY MOM SWOOPED
ME INTO THE CAR,
AND WE WENT TO THE HOSPITAL.
THE DOCTOR TOLD ME I
HAD TO HAVE A NEEDLE.

(Whimsical music plays)

Felix imagines himself wearing a white lab coat. He checks on a stuffed toy elephant with a stethoscope.

Felix says, HMM, YOU NEED
TO HAVE A NEEDLE.

Dr. Cheddar says, A NEEDLE
TO HELP YOU FEEL BETTER.

Felix nods.

He says, YEP

Felix pretends to give the toy elephant a needle.

He says, THERE, ALL BETTER. HMM.

Felix cuddles the elephant.

(Whimsical music plays)

Back at the craft table, Felix says, THE DOCTOR SAID IT
WAS EPINE…EPINIF…

Felix struggles with the word. The imaginary version of Felix wearing a lab coat helps.

The lab coat Felix says, EPINEPHRINE.

At the table, Felix says, YEAH.
AFTER I GOT THE NEEDLE, MY
LIPS WENT BACK DOWN TO NORMAL,
AND GUESS WHAT? I DIDN'T
FEEL ITCHY ANYMORE.

Dr. Cheddar says, WOW. YOU ARE VERY BRAVE.
AN ALLERGY IS WHEN YOUR
BODY DOESN'T LIKE SOMETHING
THAT YOU ATE OR TOUCHED, OR
IF YOU GET AN INSECT STING.
YOUR BODY GIVES YOU WARNING
SIGNS LIKE ITCHY SKIN,
OR YOUR LIP SWELLING.
AND SOMETIMES IT
CAN BE DANGEROUS
BECAUSE YOUR THROAT
COULD SWELL TOO.
AND THAT IS WHY GETTING
THE MEDICINE EPINEPHRINE
AS FAST AS YOU CAN
IS REALLY IMPORTANT
IF YOU HAVE A STRONG
ALLERGIC REACTION. HMM.

Felix says, OH, OH, OH.
I ALSO GOT THIS
COOL NEW BRACELET,
AND IT TELLS PEOPLE THAT
I'M ALLERGIC TO PEANUTS.

Felix holds up his wrist with a bracelet.

Felix says, YEAH, I'M ALLERGIC TO PEANUTS.
WELL, I'M GONNA BE SUPER
CAREFUL FROM NOW ON.
BEFORE I EAT ANYTHING NEW,
I'M GONNA ASK IF IT HAS
PEANUTS IN IT. MHM HMM.

Felix nods.

A person calls, FELIX.

Felix says, HUH? I HAVE TO GO NOW DR. C.
I HAVE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT
WITH THE DOCTOR.
SHE SAID SHE HAS
SOMETHING ELSE TO GIVE ME
THAT I HAVE TO CARRY
WITH ME ALL THE TIME.
BYE.

Dr. Cheddar says, OH, PLEASE LET US KNOW
HOW THAT GOES, FELIX.
GOODBYE, AND THANK
YOU FOR SHARING.

Dr. Cheddar ends the call.

He says, HMM, THIS IS DR. CHEDDAR
HOPING YOU FEEL BETTER
LEARNING ABOUT
ALLERGIES. GOODBYE.
OH MY. HMM.

(Cheerful music plays)

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

They say, WOAH!

Dr. Cheddar says, WHOA, LOVELY.
