Transcript: Poetry Problem
[Upbeat music plays]
Paths lead to houses in a small village on a grassy hill. Four turbines on a windmill rotate slowly.
Voices sing, HERE COMES
DONKEY HODIE.
A yellow donkey with a brown mane and long eyelashes exits the windmill through a doorway.
Donkey Hodie says, HEE-HAW!
Voices sing, DONKEY HODIE.
A voice sings, SHE LOVES ADVENTURE,
SHE LOVES SURPRISE.
WHEN THERE'S A PROBLEM,
SHE TRIES AND TRIES.
The voices sing, LET'S GO, DONKEY HODIE.
The single voice sings, IF SHE FAILS,
SHE'LL BOUNCE RIGHT BACK.
COME ON, DUCK DUCK,
GIVE A QUACK
[Slide whistle]
Duck Duck, a green duck, quacks, KEE-KEE! QUACK!
Voices sing, DONKEY HODIE.
The voice sings, PLAYS WITH BOB DOG,
THEY HAVE A BALL.
IT'S FUN FOR THEM,
IT'S FUN FOR ALL.
[Boinging, slide whistle]
Bob Dog, a brown dog, barks, BOW-WOW!
Voices sing, DONKEY HODIE.
[Whoosh]
The voice sings, JUST FOR FUN,
SHE'LL TAKE A TRIP.
WITH PURPLE PANDA,
IN A SPACESHIP.
Purple Panda says, HEY-O!
Voices sing, DONKEY HODIE.
Text reads, “Created by Adam Rudman and David Rudman.” “Developed by Ellen Doherty.” “Inspired by the work of Fred Rogers.” “Donkey Hodie.”
[Slide whistle]
The voice sings, HEE AND A HAW
AND A HAW AND A HEE.
SOMEPLACE ELSE IS THE PLACE
TO BE.
Voices sing, WITH OUR PAL,
DONKEY HODIE.
Donkey Hodie says, HEE-HAW!
Yellow text reads, “Poetry Problem.”
A voice reads, “POETRY PROBLEM.”
Donkey Hodie walks in a messy, dark room.
[Donkey Hodie sighs]
Donkey Hodie says, THAT DANCE
PARTY WITH PANDA LAST NIGHT
WAS SO FUN! IT WAS REALLY,
REALLY FUN!
BUT THIS PLACE SURE IS MESSY.
REALLY, REALLY MESSY.
LAST NIGHT PANDA SAID, "DONKEY,
WE SHOULD CLEAN THIS UP!"
BUT CLEANING IS NO FUN,
SO I TOLD PANDA I'D CLEAN
UP TOMORROW! SO NOW IT'S
TIME TO CLEAN.
[Sigh, calm music plays]
Donkey Hodie says, YOU CAN
DO THIS, DONKEY HODIE.
[Boing, upbeat music plays]
Donkey Hodie declares, IT'S
CLEANING TIME.
NOW WHERE DO I BEGIN?
HMM. AAH! OH! OH! HA.
Donkey Hodie trips.
[Rustling, Donkey Hodie sighs]
Donkey Hodie says, CLEANING'S
NOT EASY. HA HA! AHH. OH!
Donkey Hodie looks around the messy room.
[Ding]
Donkey Hodie says, I HAVE A
HEE-HAWESOME IDEA!
MAYBE I'LL JUST READ A BOOK
AND CLEAN UP TOMORROW!
[Chuckles, whoosh]
Donkey Hodie holds a book as she sits on a yellow, grey, and white plaid sofa.
Donkey Hodie says, AHHHH.
DOING THIS IS MUCH MORE
FUN THAN CLEANING.
A tin can on a curly cord falls down beside Donkey Hodie.
[Boing, ringing]
Donkey Hodie says, OH!
HELLO, THIS IS DONKEY.
Purple Panda says, OH, DONKEY!
I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE THERE!
Donkey Hodie says, ME TOO!
Purple Panda says, I JUST GOT
TO PLANET PURPLE FOR MY
PURPLE POETRY RECITAL.
I'M GONNA READ MY NEW
POEM HERE.
Donkey Hodie says, THE ONE
YOU READ TO ME LAST NIGHT?
"THE PURPLE POPSICLE"?
Purple Panda says, MM-HMM.
THAT'S THE ONE. HERE'S THE
THING. I LEFT MY PURPLE
POETRY NOTEBOOK AT YOUR
HOUSE LAST NIGHT.
SO I CAN'T READ MY POEM
FOR ALL THE PURPLE PANDAS!
Donkey Hodie says, OH! WELL,
DON'T YOU WORRY, PANDA PAL.
I, DONKEY HODIE, WILL FIND
YOUR PURPLE POETRY NOTEBOOK.
Purple Panda says, YOU WILL?!
Donkey Hodie says, I WILL.
AND WHEN I DO, I'LL READ YOU
THE POEM SO YOU CAN READ IT
TO ALL THE PANDAS.
Purple Panda says, OHHH, THANK
YOU, DONKEY! BYE!
Donkey Hodie says, BYE!
[Sprong, upbeat music plays]
Donkey Hodie says, HMM.
NOPE, NO PURPLE POETRY
NOTEBOOK OVER HERE. AND
NOT OVER THERE EITHER. OOH!
Donkey Hodie speaks into a tuba,
HELLO IN THERE!
Donkey Hodie says, NOPE, NOT
IN THE TUBA. HA HA! HMM.
[Squeak, Donkey Hodie grunts]
Donkey Hodie says, UGH. OOH.
[Banging on bongo drum, whooshing]
Donkey Hodie says, NOPE!
NOT BY MY BONGOS!
HA HA! UH...
[Boing, squeak]
Donkey Hodie says, HMM.
FINDING A NOTEBOOK
IN THIS MESSY MESS
IS GONNA BE HARDER
THAN I THOUGHT.
[Sigh]
Donkey Hodie says, I KNOW WHAT
I NEED TO DO. TIME TO CLEAN UP!
HA HA HA! AAH!
Donkey Hodie trips.
[Bonk, groans]
Donkey Hodie says, UGH!
[Sigh]
Donkey Hodie carries a stack of books.
[Whoosh, upbeat music plays]
Donkey Hodie says, I CAN DO
THIS. HOW HARD CAN CLEANING
UP REALLY BE?
[Thump]
Donkey Hodie says, WELL, THAT
WASN'T ANY FUN AT ALL. OOH!
PANDA AND I HAD THE BEST
DANCE PARTY LAST NIGHT.
I LOVED PLAYING MY BONGOS.
[Banging on bongo drum, sigh, humming]
Donkey Hodie says, HUH, WELL,
PUTTING THOSE AWAY WASN'T
SO BAD. HA HA HA!
Donkey Hodie picks up maracas and shakes them as she carries them to a shelf.
[Rattling, thunk, upbeat music plays]
Donkey Hodie says, HEY.
THAT WAS FUN.
AND I'M CLEANING.
MAKING MUSIC AND CLEANING
AT THE SAME TIME IS
HEE-HAWESOME!
HA! HA!
NEIGHBORS OF SOMEPLACE
ELSE, I GIVE TO YOU... THE
CLEANUP DANCE CONCERT!
HA HA!
Donkey Hodie plays instruments as she carries them to the shelf.
[Xylophone chimes, horn blows, slide whistle, upbeat music plays]
Donkey Hodie sings, HEE-HAW,
CLEAN UP,
IT CAN BE FUN, OH, YES, IT CAN.
HEE-HAW, CLEAN UP,
HAVIN' FUN TILL I'M DONE.
YES! THAT'S THE PLAN!
[Slide whistles, upbeat music plays]
Donkey Hodie sings, HEE-HAW,
CLEAN UP,
IT CAN BE FUN, OH, YES, IT CAN.
HEE-HAW, CLEAN UP,
HAVIN' FUN TILL I'M DONE.
YES! THAT'S THE PLAN!
[Slide whistle]
Donkey Hodie says, THE ROOM'S
ACTUALLY CLEAN! AND IT WAS
SO MUCH FUN! HEE-HAW!
OOH. BUT WAIT.
I STILL DIDN'T FIND
PURPLE PANDA'S NOTEBOOK.
OKAY, DONKEY HODIE.
YOU STILL HAVE TWO ROOMS
LEFT TO CLEAN.
NEXT STOP -- THE KITCHEN!
In the kitchen, eggs and peas lie on a countertop by a stack of dirty dishes.
Donkey Hodie says, MAKING DINNER
WITH PANDA LAST NIGHT WAS SO
MUCH FUN.
BUT CLEANING THIS UP
WON'T BE SO MUCH FUN.
LOOK AT THIS MESS! HMM.
WAIT A MINUTE!
CLEANING UP THE OTHER ROOM
WAS FUN. MAYBE I CAN MAKE
THIS FUN, TOO! BUT HOW?
THINK, DONKEY HODIE, THINK.
HMM. HEY. AMAZING RADISH?!
HOW'D MY FAVORITE SUPERHERO
GET HERE IN THE KITCHEN?!
SUPERHERO? THAT'S IT!
I'LL BECOME MY OWN
SUPERHERO! I WILL BECOME
THE BOLD, THE AMAZING,
THE COURAGEOUS...
Donkey Hodie runs away and returns wearing a blue domino mask over her eyes and a blue cape.
[Whoosh, majestic music plays]
Donkey Hodie says, DOOT-DOOT-DOO-DOO!
...INCREDIBLE KITCHEN
CLEANER-UPPER!
WITH THIS COSTUME ON,

Donkey Hodie says,I GOT IT!

Donkey Hodie holds a blue sponge. She cleans the kitchen.

THE INCREDIBLE KITCHEN
CLEANER-UPPER HAS GOTTEN
RID OF THE MESSY MESS!
AND IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!
[Snickers]
Donkey Hodie says, OH. BUT

The tin can on the cord drops down beside Donkey Hodie.
[Ringing]
Donkey Hodie says, OH! GREETINGS!
THE INCREDIBLE KITCHEN
CLEANER-UPPER SPEAKING!
Purple Panda says, DONKEY! DID
YOU FIND MY PURPLE NOTEBOOK?
A purple panda says, ANY MOMENT

Purple Panda says, I'M ABOUT TO GO
ON STAGE ANY MINUTE.
Donkey Hodie says, NOT YET, PANDA.
BUT I STILL HAVE ONE MORE ROOM
TO CLEAN -- MY ROOM.
Purple Panda says, OHHH.
I REALLY HOPE IT'S IN THERE,
DONKEY. OR I WON'T BE ABLE
TO SAY MY POEM FOR ALL THE
PURPLE PANDAS.
Donkey Hodie says, OH, IT HAS

[Whoosh, dramatic music plays]
Donkey Hodie looks at clothes lying on her bedroom floor.
Donkey Hodie says, OH, NO!
THIS ROOM IS THE MESSIEST
ONE OF ALL!
PANDA AND I NEVER CLEANED

CLEANING MY BEDROOM
