Posy, a brown mouse wearing a red shirt with blue sleeves, smiles.

She shouts, PIP!

Pip, a grey rabbit wearing a green and white striped shirt, smiles back at Posy.

He shouts, POSY!

(Giggling)

Pip and Posy run to each other. They hold each other’s hands and dance in a circle.

Later, Pip gives Posy a piggyback ride. Posy tosses her stuffed frog toy into the air. It hands gently in her hands. Pip catches a stuffed pig toy.

Posy shouts, COME ON!

Pip and Posy say, LET'S PLAY!

They giggle while they run.

The title reads, “Pip and Posy”.

Pip and Posy lie face up on a carousel at their school playground. They look up at the sky.

Pip asks,
WHAT DO YOU CALL A ROUNDABOUT
FOR CLOUDS?
A CLOUD-ABOUT.

(Giggling)

Posy sits up.

She says,
AND A SEE-SAW FOR A TREE IS
A TREE-TAW!

(Laughing)

Jamila, a red squirrel wearing a green sweater, walks out from behind a tree.

She says,
THIS WAY, ROUND THAT STONE.
COME ON.

Posy turns to Pip.

She asks, WHAT'S JAMILA DOING?

Pip says,
DON'T KNOW.
LET'S SURPRISE HER.

(Giggling)

Pip and Posy run over to Jamila. Jamila stares down at the ground while she walks slowly.

She says, WRONG WAY, THIS WAY.

Posy shushes Pip as they sneak up behind Jamila. They raise their hands and take a deep breath.

Jamila turns to Pip and Posy.

She says, HI!

Pip and Posy shout, AHH!

Jamila shushes them.

She says,
SHH, DON'T SCARE THEM!

Posy asks, SCARE WHO?

Ants march down a path.

Jamila says,
LOOK.
THAT'S TIFFANY.

Pip and Posy reply, AWWW.

Jamila adds,
ALL THE OTHERS FOLLOW HER.
AND LOOK!
OH, WOBBLES, THAT'S WHY YOU'RE
ALWAYS LAST.
THE BUG HOTEL IS THAT WAY.

Wobbles, the ant, wanders away from the others.

Posy asks, THE BUG HOTEL?

Pip asks, WHAT'S A BUG HOTEL?

Jamila replies, SHH, I'LL SHOW YOU.

Pip and Posy look excited.

They say, OOOH!

Jamila leads Pip and Posy to a brick building. Outside, a red box is filled with twigs, sticks, and pine cones. Bugs lie in cardboard tubes placed between the twigs.

Jamila says,
HERE IT IS, THE BUG HOTEL.

Pip replies, OH, THAT.

Posy adds, NOT A VERY BIG HOTEL.

Jamila replies,
THAT'S 'CAUSE IT'S FOR BUGS.
THERE'S THE WORM ROOM.
HE DOESN'T KEEP IT VERY CLEAN.
ONE FOR THE BEETLES, THEY
SQUABBLE A LOT.
AND THAT'S FOR THE LADYBIRD.

A yellow butterfly flies past.

Posy says, AWW, LIKE A REAL HOTEL!

Pip points at the butterfly.

He says, LOOK!

Jamila says,
IT'S CABBAGE, BACK FROM HER
MORNING FLUTTER.
SHE LIVES ON THE TOP FLOOR.

Cabbage, the yellow butterfly, lands on top of the bug hotel.

Pip asks,
AND WHAT ABOUT A ROOM FOR THE
ANTS?

Jamila says,
I'VE MADE SOMETHING SPECIALLY
FOR THEM.
WOBBLES IS GOING TO LOVE IT.
OH, THEY'RE COMING!
I'D BETTER GO AND GET IT.

Posy asks, CAN WE HELP?

Jamila answers, YES, I NEED TWIGS.

Pip and Posy reply, TWIGS?

Jamila says,
LOTS OF TWIGS!
THEY NEED TO BE ABOUT YEA LONG.

She holds her hand a shoulder length apart.

Pip says,
WE'LL FIND HEAPS OF YEA LONG
TWIGS!

He stretches his hands out past his shoulders. Jamila pushes his hands closer together.

She says, HMM, PERFECT.

Jamila skips away from Pip and Posy. Posy waves.

She says,
SEE YOU LATER, JAMILA BOBILA!

Jamila skips past the ants on the path.

She says,
NOT SO FAST, TIFFANY.
YOUR ROOM'S NOT READY YET.

Pip and Posy search through plants and bushes.

Posy says, OH, GOT ONE!

She holds up a twig. Pip holds up two twigs.

He says, GOT TWO!

(Beat-boxing)

Pip plays imaginary drums with his twigs. Posy balances her twig on her nose.

She says, WHOA, WHOA!

Posy’s twig falls onto the bug hotel. Cabbage flies away.

Pip laughs.

He says, CLUMSY, CLUMSY.

Posy asks,
DO YOU THINK THE ROOMS ARE
COMFY?

Pip replies,
YES, I KNOW BECAUSE I'M THE
BUSY BEE WHO RUNS THE HOTEL.

(Buzzing)

Pip flaps his arms while he runs in circles. Posy flaps her arms as she hops around a garden.

She says,
AND I'M FLAPPINGTON THE
BUTTERFLY!
FLOOF-FLOOF-FLOOF!
CAN I STAY IN YOUR NICE HOTEL,
PLEASE?

Pip replies,
YES, YOU WILL LOVE IT!
THERE'S A SWIMMING POOL, YUMMY
FLOWERS...
AND BUZZY DANCING!

(Imitating insects buzzing)

Pip and Posy dance in front of the bug hotel.

(Laughing)

The beetles leave the bug hotel.

Posy asks,
WHAT NEXT?
OH, DO YOU DO SPORTS AT THE
HOTEL?
BUTTERFLIES LOVE SPORTS.

Pip replies,
LET'S PLAY, UM…MOTHBALL!
HUP!

(Laughing)

Pip and Posy run around the garden. Posy throws a ball. It hits the bug hotel. The ladybug flies away.

Pip says, POSY!

He runs after the ball.

Tiffany leads the other ants down the path. Wobbles gets lost and climbs a plant. The leaf bends and Wobbles slowly slides back onto the path. It hurries back to the other ants.

Pip says,
HERE IT COMES!
BOING!

He tosses the ball to Posy. It bounces in front of the ants.

Posy shouts,
I'VE GOT ANOTHER GAME!
COME ON!

(Laughing)

Pip and Posy run into the brick building. Tiffany turns around and leads the other ants back up the path.

(Humming)

Jamila skips back to the bug hotel. She finds the ants.

Jamila says,
TIFFANY?
THE HOTEL IS THAT WAY.
LOOK, HERE'S YOUR ROOM.

(Pip and posy laughing)

Jamila asks, WHAT?

Pip and Posy dump out a bucket full of building blocks near the bug hotel.

Posy says,
HERE'S THE BUG TOY SHOP.

Pip says, THE BUG SWEET SHOP.

Pip and Posy build with the blocks.

(Giggling)

Pip adds,
MMM, MUD LOLLIES AND SNAIL
SLIME CHEWS!

Jamila runs to Pip and Posy.

She says,
TWIGS, QUICK!
I'VE GOT TO MAKE THE ANTS' ROOM
NOW!

Pip and Posy hand their twigs to Jamila.

Posy says, OH, HERE'S MINE.

Pip says, UH, I FOUND TWO.

Jamila replies,
YOU SAID YOU'D GET HEAPS!
I NEED MORE THAN THREE FOR--

(Gasping)

Jamila looks at the bug hotel.

She says, THE BUGS HAVE GONE!

Posy asks, HAVE THEY?

Pip asks, OH YEAH, WHAT HAPPENED?

Jamila answers, YOU WERE TOO NOISY.

Pip and Posy reply, OH…

They look at each other.

Jamila adds,
THEY'VE ALL MOVED OUT!
AND NOW THE ANTS ARE GOING AWAY
TOO.

Posy replies,
I'LL TURN TIFFANY AROUND,
THEN THE OTHERS WILL ALL FOLLOW.

She runs across the garden. Jamila follows her.

Jamila says,
DON'T, YOU MIGHT HURT HER!

Pip kneels in front of the ants and lays the three twigs on the path in the shape of an arrow.

He says, THIS WAY, ANTS!

Jamila says, SHHH.

Pip whispers, THIS WAY, ANTS.

Jamila says,
ANTS DON'T KNOW ARROWS.

Pip replies, AH, LOOK!

Tiffany leads the other ants onto a twig. Pip turns the twig around.

Jamila says,
OH, IT'S WORKING!
WE CAN LEAD THEM ALL THE WAY
BACK WITH THE TWIGS!

The ants march back toward the bug hotel on the twigs

Jamila whispers,
I'LL GET THEIR ROOM READY!

(Giggling)

Pip and Posy continue to move the ants down the path.

(Giggling happily)

Jamila sits outside the building and builds a room for the ants.

The ants approach a mud puddle.

Pip and Posy say, OH, UM...

(Giggling gleefully)

Posy places two blocks on either side of the puddle. Pip lays a twig across them. The ants walk across the twig bridge.

Jamila finishes the ant’s room. She sets up a pathway to it.

Pip says, OH, COME ON, COME ON!

The ants walk up the twig to their room.

Tiffany takes a wrong turn toward another room.

Jamila says, TIFFANY, WRONG WAY!

(Laughing)

The ants bump into one another. Wobbles crawls up to the right room. The other ants follow.

Jamila says,
THEY LOVE THEIR TWIGGY TUBEY
ROOM!

Posy points to the beetles as they return to their room.

(Squealing happily)

The beetles look up at Jamila.

(Gasping)

(All sighing)

Zac, a white and brown dog wearing a yellow t-shirt, hops out from behind a bush.

He asks, HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

Pip, Posy, and Jamila reply, SHHH!

Zac replies, HUH?

Jamila points to the bug hotel.

She says, LOOK.

Zac looks inside the bug hotel.

He says,
OOH, UH...
IS SOMETHING SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN?
HUH?

Cabbage, the butterfly, lands on Zac’s nose.

Jamila says, CABBAGE!

Cabbage lands back on the bug hotel.

Posy says, AWW.

Zac asks,
WHY DID JAMILA CALL ME
CABBAGE?

(Giggling)

Jamila shushes the others.

She says, SHHH!
