THAT TVOKIDS SHOW
An animated map unfolds, showing a path from houses to the tree fort.
In the tree fort, Unshirley lays behind the tuba phone. Her cat rests on its keyboard. She wears a pink tie dye shirt and denim overalls. Unshirley holds a wrench and different coloured wires.
Unshirley says, JUST CONNECT THE YELLOW WIRE.
Unshirley grabs the yellow wire and throws it away.
She says, WE DON'T NEED THE YELLOW WIRE…
Unshirley wrestles with a black wire.
She says, …TO THE BLUE WIRE.
AND BUNNY EAR IT AROUND…
Matt says, HEY TVOKIDS!
Matt wears a striped shirt and jeans.
He says, IT IS TRY NEW THINGS DAY HERE

Matt looks around the tree fort.
Matt calls, UH, UNSHIRLEY?

Unshirley says, JUST ONE MORE WIRE.
Matt says, SHE MUST BE AROUND
HERE SOMEWHERE.
Unshirley says, AND JUST SWITCH IT (indiscernible)…
Matt spots Unshirley behind the tuba phone.
Matt says, OH, THERE SHE IS!
I WONDER WHAT SHE’S DOING.
Matt walks over to Unshirley.
Unshirley says, JUST A BIT…
He says, HEY, UNSHIRLEY!
Unshirley says, WHOA!
Matt squats down beside Unshirley.
Unshirley says, LISTEN!
YOU SHOULDN'T SCARE PEOPLE LIKE

WORK.
Matt laughs and says, SORRY.
Unshirley says, OH!
Matt says, WAIT, WHY ARE YOU DOING
MECHANICAL WORK?
Unshirley says, I’M JUST DOING THAT FAVOUR
YOU ASKED ME TO DO.
Matt asks, WHAT FAVOUR?
Unshirley says, THE FAVOUR, YOU KNOW,

YOU DON’T REMEMBER THAT?
Matt asks, ARE YOU SURE THAT WAS ME?

SOME SORT OF LIKE, FRUITY TYPE CEREAL AND YOU
LOOKED AT ME AND YOU SAID,
UNSHIRLEY, YOUR LIFE CALLING IS

AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CN TOWER
CAME TO LIFE AND IT FLOATED DOWN
TO US AND IT TOOK YOUR
SPOT AND YOU DISAPPEARED
AND IT SAID UNSHIRLEY YOU SHOULD BE
A MECHANIC.
AND I SAID I DON’T KNOW ABOUT THAT.
AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN
THE DINNER TABLE STARTED
FLOATING UP TO THE SKY AND THEN ALL
THE STARS STARTED COMING IN THEN…
WAIT A SECOND…
NO, THAT'S DEFINITELY WHAT HAPPENED.
Matt says, UNSHIRLEY.
THAT WAS A DREAM.
Unshirley says, OH, NO!
I KEEP DOING THAT.
I AM SO SORRY.
Matt says, NO, NO, IT'S OKAY, I MEAN,
IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'VE DONE A LOT
OF WORK ON THIS THING.
Unshirley says, YEAH.
Matt asks, WHAT DID YOU DO TO THE TUBA
PHONE?
Unshirley says, OH, WELL, I MEAN,
LIKE YOU SAID I
JUST DID A COUPLE OF MECHANICAL
THINGS TO IT.
AND, WELL, I CHANGED IT OUT
SO YOU WON'T ACTUALLY NEED THIS
GUY ANYMORE.
THERE’S A TOTAL NEW ONE THAT’LL

Unshirley says, UM, I GOT AN RV TO WORK ON,
A COUPLE VEHICLES AND A MOTORHOME.
SO I SHOULD GET GOING.
BUT, YOU COULD…
OH I'LL TAKE THIS WITH ME

Unshirley grabs her cat and the different coloured wires. She lays on a wheel board and pushes herself with her feet towards the tree fort door.
Matt says, OKAY, I MEAN, I, I, I KINDA GOT A COUPLE OF
QUESTIONS ABOUT THE NEW SYSTEM.
Unshirley says, YEAH, IT’LL BE FINE, COME ON CAT,

Matt asks, YOU ALRIGHT?
WITH THE DOOR?
Unshirley says, …FOR THE REST OF THE DAY.
Matt says, OKAY.
Unshirley says, SEE YOU LATER.
Matt says, UH?
Unshirley makes it out the tree fort and tries to close the door with her foot but doesn’t quite close it.
She says, I GOT IT!
Unshirley closes the tree fort door.
Matt says, SO, I GUESS THE TUBA
PHONE DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE?
UH, OKAY.
Matt looks lost.
He says, I MEAN, I FEEL KIND OF BAD.
IT'S, IT’S KIND OF BEEN A PART OF THE
TREE FORT FOR A WHILE.
I, I LIKE THE TUBA PHONE.
IT, IT STILL WORKS.
Matt gestures to the tuba phone.
He says, WELL, I WONDER HOW THE NEW PHONE WORKS
OR WHERE IT EVEN GOES?
Matt looks around the tree fort.
He says, I DON'T, I DON’T
SEE THE PHONE ANYWHERE.
(Phone vibrating noise)
A smiling smart phone icon rings. Text reads, incoming call.
The phone sings, SOMEONE IS CALLING
YOU SHOULD GET IT.
SOMEONE IS CALLING.
Matt says, OKAY!
OH, THIS IS…
(Cool music plays)
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP, PICK IT UP.
Matt says, THIS IS A NEW PHONE!
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP, PICK IT UP.
Matt dances to the music.
He says, OKAY!
IT’S KINDA COOL.
I DON’T KNOW HOW TO ANSWER IT.
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP, PICK IT UP.
Matt asks, UH, IS IT LIKE A FACE SCAN?
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP.
Matt leans forwards.
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP, PICK IT UP.
Matt says, K, IT’S NOT A FACE SCAN.
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP.
Matt says, MAYBE I’LL JUST,
TAP.
Matt taps the smart phone icon and it disappears.
Matt says, OH!

HELLO?
HI, CALLER!

A young voice says, UM, YEAH, UM, I’M NAWAZ AND I’M

THIS IS WAY COOLER!
Ella says, I KNOW, RIGHT?
THANKS FOR WATCHING,

In the tree fort, Matt sits on the mountain pillow bench and holds a dog pillow. He sighs.
Matt says, TVOKIDS, I FEEL AWFUL
ABOUT THE TUBA PHONE.
I REALLY WISH I’D JUST GIVEN IT TO
SOMEBODY INSTEAD OF WASTING IT.
Unshirley calls, HELLO!?
MATT?

Unshirley says, UM, I GOT AN RV TO WORK ON,
A COUPLE VEHICLES AND A MOTORHOME.
SO I SHOULD GET GOING.
BUT, YOU COULD…
OH I'LL TAKE THIS WITH ME

Unshirley grabs her cat and the different coloured wires. She lays on a wheel board and pushes herself with her feet towards the tree fort door.
Matt says, OKAY, I MEAN, I, I, I KINDA GOT A COUPLE OF
QUESTIONS ABOUT THE NEW SYSTEM.
Unshirley says, YEAH, IT’LL BE FINE, COME ON CAT,

Matt says, OH, OKAY.
Unshirley calls, HAVE A GOOD

Matt says, ALRIGHT.
Unshirley says, I’M GONNA GO BE A MECHANIC…
Matt asks, YOU ALRIGHT?
WITH THE DOOR?
Unshirley says, …FOR THE REST OF THE DAY.
Matt says, OKAY.
Unshirley says, SEE YOU LATER.
Matt says, UH?
Unshirley makes it out the tree fort and tries to close the door with her foot but doesn’t quite close it.
She says, I GOT IT!
Unshirley closes the tree fort door.
Matt says, SO, I GUESS THE TUBA
PHONE DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE?
UH, OKAY.
Matt looks lost.
He says, I MEAN, I FEEL KIND OF BAD.
IT'S, IT’S KIND OF BEEN A PART OF THE
TREE FORT FOR A WHILE.
I, I LIKE THE TUBA PHONE.
IT, IT STILL WORKS.
Matt gestures to the tuba phone.
He says, WELL, I WONDER HOW THE NEW PHONE WORKS
OR WHERE IT EVEN GOES?
Matt looks around the tree fort.
He says, I DON'T, I DON’T
SEE THE PHONE ANYWHERE.
(Phone vibrating noise)
A smiling smart phone icon rings. Text reads, incoming call.
The phone sings, SOMEONE IS CALLING
YOU SHOULD GET IT.
SOMEONE IS CALLING.
Matt says, OKAY!
OH, THIS IS…
(Cool music plays)
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP, PICK IT UP.
Matt says, THIS IS A NEW PHONE!
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP, PICK IT UP.
Matt dances to the music.
He says, OKAY!
IT’S KINDA COOL.
I DON’T KNOW HOW TO ANSWER IT.
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP, PICK IT UP.
Matt asks, UH, IS IT LIKE A FACE SCAN?
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP.
Matt leans forwards.
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP, PICK IT UP.
Matt says, K, IT’S NOT A FACE SCAN.
The phone sings, PICK IT UP,
PICK IT UP.
Matt says, MAYBE I’LL JUST,
TAP.
Matt taps the smart phone icon and it disappears.
Matt says, OH!
DID THAT WORK?
HELLO?
HI, CALLER!

A young voice says, UM, YEAH, UM, I’M NAWAZ AND I’M

Matt sighs.

WHAT TO DO WITH IT.
DO YOU THINK THERE WAS MAYBE
SOMETHING ELSE I SHOULDA

Sophia says, WELL, MAYBE INSTEAD OF THROWING IT
OUT YOU CAN MAKE A CRAFT WITH IT OR
USE IT FOR SOMETHING ELSE.
OR MAYBE, IF YOU
DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH

MEMBERS, TALK TO PEOPLE
WHO KNOW MORE ABOUT IT

April says, WOW.
I CAN'T BELIEVE I NEVER THOUGHT
OF THIS BEFORE.
THIS IS WAY COOLER!
Ella says, I KNOW, RIGHT?
THANKS FOR WATCHING,
EVERYBODY!
In the tree fort, Matt sits on the mountain pillow bench and holds a dog pillow. He sighs.
Matt says, TVOKIDS, I FEEL AWFUL
ABOUT THE TUBA PHONE.
I REALLY WISH I’D JUST GIVEN IT TO
SOMEBODY INSTEAD OF WASTING IT.
Unshirley calls, HELLO!?
MATT?

Matt says, YEAH, HEY, UNSHIRLEY.
Matt stands from the bench and puts down the pillow.
