The sun shines on a colourful stone
path in a field filled with wildflowers.
A windmill stands in the middle of a
small town surrounded by rolling
hills. The windmill rotates in a
gentle breeze.

Duck Duck answers,
“YES, YES, NOW...
UH, YOU SEE SOMETHING VERY

Duck Duck walks away from Donkey,
Bob Dog, and Panda.

Donkey asks, “WHAT?”

Bob Dog adds,
“WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?”

Donkey says, “DUCK DUCK
WAS SO EXCITED
AND THEN SHE SUDDENLY
HAD TO GO HOME?”

book. She groans.

Donkey says, “OH, DUCK DUCK!”

Duck Duck replies, “WHAT WHAT?”

Donkey asks, “ARE YOU ALRIGHT?
YOU SEEM UPSET.”

Duck Duck answers, “I'M OKAY.”

Panda adds, “DUCK DUCK.”

Duck Duck asks, “WHAT WHAT?”

Panda says, “YOU CAN TALK TO US.”

Bob Dog adds,
“YEAH, YEAH, WE'RE YOUR
FRIENDS. WE'LL LISTEN.”

Duck Duck says,
“WELL, IT'S JUST THAT...
THIS IS HARD TO ADMIT.
I'M SCARED.”

Donkey asks,
“WHAT ARE YOU SCARED OF?”

Duck Duck answers, “SPACESHIPS.”

Panda replies, “SPACESHIPS?”

Duck Duck responds,
“YES! SPACESHIPS!
SEE, SEE, LOOK AT THIS,
JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.
ARE YOU AWARE OF HOW SCARY
SPACESHIPS ARE
WHEN THEY TAKE OFF?
FIRST, THEY RUMBLE,
AND THEY BUMBLE,
AND THEN THEY SHAKE
AND THEN THEY QUAKE,
AND THEN THEY BLAST OFF!
VROOOOOM!”

Panda says,
“I GET IT. BLASTING OFF IS
A LOT OF SHAKING AND NOISE.”

Duck Duck adds,
“I REALLY WANNA SEE
THE LAVENDER LIGHTS!
BUT...
BUT I DON'T KNOW
WHAT BLASTING OFF
IN THE SPACESHIP'S
GONNA FEEL LIKE
AND IT IS FREAKING ME OUT
A LITTLE!”

Donkey replies,
“DUCK DUCK, IT'S OKAY
YOU'RE AFRAID.
YOUR FRIENDS ARE ALL HERE
TO HELP
SO WE CAN ALL GO SEE
THE LAVENDER LIGHTS TOGETHER!”

Bob Dog adds,
“BOW WOW! AND I KNOW
SOMETHING THAT COULD HELP!”

Duck Duck responds, “REALLY?”

Bob Dog says, “YEAH!
I USED TO BE SUPER SCARED
TO GO TO THE DENTIST.
BUT WHAT HELPED WAS...
...HOWARD, MY COZY BALL!
MY GRANDMA GOT IT FOR ME
WHEN I WAS A LITTLE PUP!
YUP! HUGGING HOWARD MAKES ME
THINK OF MY GRANDMA
AND THEN I FEEL LESS SCARED.”

Duck Duck replies, “AWWWW.”

She gasps.

Duck Duck adds, “HEY HEY!
I CAN TRY SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
AND I KNOW THE PERFECT FUZZY
LITTLE GUY FOR THE JOB.
AND HIS NAME IS QUACKENBUSH!
YEAH, WE'VE BEEN BUDDIES
EVER SINCE I WAS JUST A LITTLE
DUCKLING.
QUACKENBUSH ALWAYS MAKES ME

teddy bear.

Everyone says,
“HELLO, QUACKENBUSH!”

Donkey asks, “READY?”

Duck Duck answers, “READY!
OKAY, QUACKENBUSH,
WE CAN DO THIS!
AH.
OKAY, QUACKENBUSH,
I DON'T THINK I'M QUITE
READY TO DO THIS YET.”

Duck Duck exhales.

She adds, “I-I'M STILL SCARED.”

Panda says,
“OH YEAH! HEY, DUCK DUCK,
YOU KNOW WHAT?”

Duck Duck asks, “WHAT?”

Panda replies,
“YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS,
BUT I USED TO BE AFRAID
OF ROCKING CHAIRS.”

Duck Duck responds, “YOU WERE?”

Panda says, “YEAH!
THINK ABOUT IT.
ONE MINUTE YOU'RE
JUST SITTING AROUND
MINDING YOUR OWN BUSINESS,
AND THE NEXT,
YOU'RE ROCKING! WHOA!”

Duck Duck asks, “WELL, PANDA...
IT SEEMS TO ME
THAT YOU'RE ROCKING
JUST FINE THESE DAYS.
SO, HOW'D YOU GET OVER
YOUR FEAR?”

Panda answers, “OH, WELL,
MY MOMMA HELPED ME.
SHE SAID, SIT ON A SWING
AND PRETEND IT'S A ROCKING
CHAIR.
SO, I ROCKED ON THE SWING
TO GET USED TO THE ROCKING.”

Bob Dog says, “BOW WOW!
WHAT A GREAT IDEA!”

Panda adds, “YEAH! AND THEN,
WHEN I FELT I WAS READY,
I TRIED A REAL ROCKING CHAIR,
LIKE THIS ONE.
AND I LOVE ROCKING NOW!”

Panda giggles.

Donkey says, “HEY HEY HEY!
WE GOTTA TRY PRETENDING
WITH DUCK DUCK! HEE-HAW!”

Panda sits in a lawn chair with Duck
Duck beside him, as Donkey sits with
Bob Dog in a row behind.

Donkey adds,
“OKAY, TIME TO PRETEND THIS
IS THE SPACESHIP, DUCK DUCK.”

Panda responds,
“YEAH, SO YOU'LL FEEL
COMFORTABLE WHEN WE RIDE
IN MY REAL SPACESHIP.”

Duck Duck replies,
“HOPE SO. HOPE SO.
THEN WE CAN BLAST OFF
TO THE LAVENDER LIGHTS!”

Bob Dog adds, “YEAH, OKAY,
SO NOW WE NEED TO PRETEND.”

He clears his throat.

Bob Dog continues, “HEY, GANG!
I JUST LOVE SITTING HERE
IN PANDA'S SPACESHIP!”

Duck Duck says,
“YES, WHAT A LOVELY SPACESHIP.
I FEEL FINE, SITTING HERE,
IN THIS SPACE... SHIP…”

Duck Duck whimpers.

She says, “'KAY 'KAY.”

Panda continues, “OKAY, THIRD,

Duck Duck closes her eyes.

Donkey says, “WOO! WE'RE FLYING!”

Bob Dog adds,
“OUTER SPACE HERE WE COME!”

Panda replies, “YEAH!”

Bob Dog says, “AND SCENE…”

Panda asks, “SO, HOW DID IT GO?”

Duck Duck answers,
“UH... NOT BAD. I-I GUESS?”

Donkey asks,
“ARE YOU READY TO TRY
THE REAL SPACESHIP NOW?”

Duck Duck replies,
“WELL, I DUNNO, LET ME ASK,
QUACKENBUSH.

Duck walk toward Panda’s spaceship.
Duck Duck stops.

Donkey says, “C'MON, DUCK DUCK.
YOU CAN DO IT!”

Duck Duck replies,
“NOPE. NO, I CAN'T DO IT.
OOH, I WANNA SEE THE LAVENDER
LIGHTS MORE THAN ANYTHING,
BUT I AM JUST STILL TOO SCARED.”

Panda asks, “BUT WHY?”

Duck Duck replies,
“WELL, I KNOW WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN YOU BLAST OFF.
BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT
IT'S GONNA FEEL LIKE.”

Donkey replies, “HMM...OH!
WHATTAYA SAY WE HELP
YOU FEEL THAT FEELING
SO YOU KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN
WHEN YOU BLAST OFF!”

Duck Duck asks, “HOW HOW?”

Donkey says,
“HEY! HEY, A LONG TIME AGO,
GRAMPY HODIE WANTED TO TAKE ME
IN HIS HOT AIR BALLOON.
I WANTED TO GO SO BADLY.
BUT I WAS TOO SCARED TO GO
UP SO HIGH IN THAT BALLOON!”

Duck Duck asks, “WELL-WELL-WELL,
WHAT'D YOU DO, DONKEY?”

Flashback.

Donkey responds,
“WELL, GRAMPY TOOK ME
TO THE SUPER-DUPER SLIDE
AT THE PARK.
SO I COULD FEEL WHAT IT
WAS LIKE BEING
SO HIGH UP IN THE AIR.
WE TOOK IT SLOW.
BUT I GOT USED TO THE FEELING
OF BEING HIGHER AND HIGHER UP!
AND THEN I WAS FINALLY
READY TO GO UP
IN GRAMPY'S HOT AIR BALLOON.
AND AFTER A WHILE
I WASN'T SCARED ANYMORE,
BECAUSE I REALIZED
HOW MUCH FUN I WAS HAVING.
AND I WAS SO GLAD I DID IT!
EVEN THOUGH I WAS AFRAID
AT FIRST.”

Bob Dog adds,
“YEAH, AND WE ARE GONNA DO THE
SAME THING FOR YOU, DUCK DUCK.”

Donkey says,
“YES, YES, YOU WILL CONQUER
YOUR FEAR, DUCK DUCK!”

Duck Duck replies,
“'KAY 'KAY. I CAN DO THIS!
I'M GOING TO TRY TO BE BRAVE.
THEN WE CAN ALL GO SEE
THE LAVENDER LIGHTS TOGETHER!”

“SO, I'LL BE
