(Groans)
Donkey Hodie asks, WAS THAT YOUR TAP DANCE ROUTINE?
Bob Dog says, UH, NOT EXACTLY. I CAN'T SEEM TO REMEMBER MY TAP DANCE.
Panda says, WELL, THEN WHY DON'T YOU PRACTICE SITTING AND STAYING INSTEAD?
Bob Dog says, OH, YEAH, OKAY, I CAN DO THAT.
Bob Dog twitches.
Bob Dog says, UH, I CAN'T SEEM TO STOP MOVING!

Bob Dog singing, I GOT A BELLY FULL OF BUTTERFLIES. THEY'RE FLUTTERING AROUND AND MY KNEES ARE REALLY SHAKY AND I'M FROZEN TO THE GROUND AND I'M TALKING VERY QUICKLY AND MY EARS ARE VERY HOT AND MY HEAD IS FEELING PRICKLY AND I SUDDENLY CANNOT I CANNOT, I CANNOT REMEMBER ANYTHING AT ALL I FORGOT, I FORGOT HOW TO EVEN BOW-WOOOW. I MEAN BOW-WHY. I MEAN BOW-WHOA. CAN'T SHOW WHAT I KNOW 'CAUSE IT'S ALL A NO-GO. I'M WORRIED THAT I'M NEVER GONNA GRADUATE NOW AND I'M AFRAID ALL I CAN SAY IS MEOOOOW!
Donkey Hodie says, BOB DOG, IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE NERVOUS.
Bob Dog says, YEAH, I AM NERVOUS. REALLY NERVOUS. I DON'T THINK I CAN DO THIS.
Panda says, I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL. WHEN I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING IMPORTANT, MY TUMMY FEELS ALL WIGGLY JIGGLY, LIKE THIS.
Panda shakes his stomach.

Bob Dog says, OH, THANKS, PALS, BUT, UH, HOW ARE YOU GONNA HELP ME GRADUATE?
Donkey Hodie says, HMM, THINK, DONKEY HODIE, THINK. HMM. AHA! MY BONGOS!
Donkey Hodie plays bongos.
(Bongo drumming)
Bob Dog asks, BONGOS? HOW WILL BONGOS HELP?
Donkey Hodie says, THESE BONGOS REMIND ME OF A TIME YOU DID SOMETHING A LOT LIKE TAP DANCING, BOB DOG.
Panda and Bob Dog says, HMM?
(Bongo drumming)
Donkey Hodie says, I WAS JAMMING ON THESE BONGO DRUMS, AND YOU WANTED TO JOIN IN. BUT I ONLY HAD ONE SET OF BONGOS.
Bob Dog says, OH, YEAH. WELL, WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO JOIN IN ON THAT DRUMMING FUN?
Donkey Hodie says, BUT YOU DID JOIN IN, REMEMBER?
(Tapping)
Bob Dog tap-dances.
Bob Dog says, YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT. I STARTED TAPPING WITH MY FEET, AND THEN I SORT OF STARTED DRUMMING WITH MY FEET.
Donkey Hodie says, YOU CALLED IT PAW DRUMMING. IT SURE LOOKED A LOT LIKE TAP DANCING TO ME, AND YOU WERE REALLY GOOD AT IT.
Bob Dog says, TO HELP ME SHOW THAT I KNOW HOW TO TAP DANCE, I'LL REMEMBER THIS PAW DRUMMING WITH DONKEY!
(Bongos playing, tapping)
Panda shouts, HEY-O!
Bob Dog says, YEAH! UH, WAIT A MINUTE. BUT WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER THINGS I HAVE TO REMEMBER FOR GRADUATION? THE SIT AND STAY?
Panda looks thoughtful.
Panda says, HMM. WAIT A MINUTE! REMEMBER WHEN I DREW THIS PICTURE OF YOU? SEE, IT'S HARD TO DRAW SOMEONE WHEN THEY'RE MOVING, SO I TOLD YOU TO HOLD THAT POSE, BOB DOG. REMEMBER?
Bob Dog says, HOLD THAT POSE. YEAH, YEAH. THIS FEELS FAMILIAR.
Bob Dog stands still.
Panda says, YEP, AND YOU STAYED SUPER STILL WHILE I DREW YOU, JUST LIKE YOU'RE DOING RIGHT NOW. AND YOU SEE ALL THESE LADYBUGS IN THE PICTURE? YOU DIDN'T CHASE A SINGLE ONE.
Bob Dog says, YEAH, YEAH, IT SURE WAS HARD NOT TO CHASE THOSE LADYBUGS.
Panda says, MM-HMM.
Bob Dog says, YEAH, WELL, MAYBE WHEN I HAVE TO SHOW THAT I KNOW HOW TO SIT AND STAY, I SHOULD REMEMBER THE TIME I POSED FOR THAT PICTURE.
Panda says, THAT'S A GREAT IDEA!
Bob Dog says, YEAH, NOW I JUST HAVE TO SHOW I KNOW HOW TO BAKE MUFFINS.
Donkey Hodie says, OH! OH! YOU SHOULD REMEMBER THAT TIME YOU MADE US THAT BIG, TASTY CAKE.

Panda says, YOU MUST BE A GOOD BAKER, BOB DOG. NOT EVERYBODY KNOWS ABOUT NUTMEG.
Bob Dog says, SO WHEN I NEED TO SHOW THAT I KNOW HOW TO BAKE MUFFINS, I CAN JUST REMEMBER THE BIG, TASTY CAKE I MADE FOR YOU.
Donkey Hodie says, YOU CAN DO IT, BOB DOG.
