A blue slate appears. Tumbleweed pops on the screen, he’s a brown hamster.
The screen reads "Tumbleweed presents."

Tumbleweed says TUMBLEWEED
PRESENTS...

The title changes to "Tumbleweed Tales."

Tumbleweed says TUMBLETOWN TALES!

The last S turns into a green dollar sign as he says CHA-CHING!

The show opens with Tumbleweed and his friends having fun in the living room of a large orange house.

Mike says OH GUYS, IT WILL BE SO MUCH
FUN!
WE'RE GONNA ROAST MARSHMALLOWS.

A black rabbit rubs his hands and says AND GO CANOEING!

A little black mouse says AND TELL GHOST STORIES!

Tumbleweed says YES!
GOING CAMPING IS THE BEST IDEA I
EVER HAD!

A dark mouse says ACTUALLY, IT WAS MY IDEA,
TOO.

Tumbleweed says HAS EVERYONE PUT IN THEIR
20 dollars?

They all answer YEAH.
YES, I DID.

Tumbleweed says OKAY, SO EVERYONE
BRINGS THEIR OWN TANKS AND
SLEEPING BAGS.
WHAT ELSE DO WE NEED?

Rabbit says WE WILL NEED FOOD!

Tumbleweed writes on a piece of paper and says YEAH, BABY!

A gray hamster says AND FIREWOOD.

Tumbleweed says FIREWOOD.

The black mouse says I'LL NEED A CURLING IRON, SO
I LOOK NICE.

A large brown and white guinea pig says HOW ABOUT PATIO FURNITURE?
I HATE SITTING ON THE GROUND!

They All agree.

The black mouse says MY TAIL GETS COLD.

Tumbleweed says CURLING IRON,
PATIO FURNITURE.
WHAT ABOUT A BOWLING BOWL?
YOU KNOW, IN CASE WE WANT TO
BOWL?

Bunny says THAT IS CRAZY!

They gasp and Tumbleweed says WHAT!?

Bunny says WELL, WE ALL LIKE BOWLING,
WE NEED SEVERAL BOWLING BALLS!

Tumbleweed laughs and says OH, YEAH, YEAH, THAT MAKES
SENSE.

A brown guinea pig says I WAS GONNA SAY THAT.

Now Tumbleweed drives his red car and sings WE'RE GOING
CAMPING!
GOING CAMPING!
ANOTHER CAMPING TRIP!
HEY!

He pulls up next to the general store. He activates his car alarm and looks at a sign in front of the store, It reads "Sale on patio furniture only today."

Tumbleweed says SALE ON PATIO
FURNITURE!
I'M SO LUCKY!

Chinchilla walks by and says CHINCHILLA!

Tumbleweed says DON'T SET OFF
MY

Chinchilla touches his car and the alarm rings.

Chinchilla says CHINCHILLA.

Tumbleweed says OH, MAN...

Now he hums and drives somewhere else with his the furniture he bought An ornamented white table and chairs in the trailer behind the car.

He pulls up at "Lucky’s sportmart" and says OH, I GET TO CHECK OUT THE
NEWEST SPORTS STORE!
LET'S SEE WHAT WE GOT.
OHH, LET'S SEE, BOWLING BALLS.
BOWLING BALLS...

He looks around and sees all kinds of balls, bats and other sport gear on display.

He sees a wall covered in all color bowling balls and says AHA!
UH-OH.
NOW, WE GOTTA CALL TWIGGY.

A gray and white guinea pig says HEY, I'M JENNA!
HOW CAN I HELP YOU?

Tumbleweed speaks on his cell phone and says HOLD ON A SECOND.
TWIGGY, THEY DON'T HAVE ANY
ORANGE BOWLING BOWLS.
IS, UM, YELLOW OKAY?

Twiggy says WELL, IS THERE A PURPLE?

Tumbleweed says I WANT TO TAKE
ALL OF YOUR PURPLE BOWLING
BALLS, JENNA.

Jenna chuckles and says ALRIGHT!

The grunt and pop them into the trailer.

Now Tumbleweed drives back and says OKAY!
LET'S SEE, I GOT PATIO FURNITURE
AND BOWLING BOWLS.
I GUESS I NEED SOME FOOD.

Sal sits on his fruit stand and says WELL, I WISH I COULD GO
CAMPING WITH YOU.

Tumbleweed says OH, YEAH, ME TOO.
UM, OH WELL, I GUESS I GOT
ENOUGH FOOD.

He says WHAT ABOUT PEACH COBBLER?

Tumbleweed says OKAY.

He says REALLY?

Tumbleweed says SURE, WHY NOT?

Sal says FINALLY!
SOMEONE BUYS IT!

He laughs and asks
HEY, TUMBLEWEED, YOU NEED A
HAND?

Tumbleweed says NO, I GOT IT.

He grunts and takes the large brown paper back on his back to the car.

Sal says EH, ARE YOU SURE?
[Music playing]

Tumbleweed drives back to the orange house and says OKAY.
I GOT EVERYTHING ON THE LIST.
BUT SLIGHT CHANGE.
INSTEAD OF 20 dollars EACH, IT'S GOING
TO BE 200 dollars EACH.

They gasp and say WHAT!?
WHAT!?

The brown guinea pig says I KNEW HE'D GO OVER BUDGET.

Tumbleweed says BUT THERE'S A LOT
OF STUFF AND IT WAS EXPENSIVE.

They all talk together.

The black mouse asks DO WE REALLY NEED ALL THAT
STUFF?

Guinea pig says LET'S MAKE A LIST.
ON ONE SIDE, THE STUFF WE NEED
AND ON THE OTHER, THE STUFF WE
WANT.

Tumbleweed says HEY, THAT'S A
GREAT IDEA!

They all say YEAH, GOOD IDEA!
YEAH, I LIKE IT.
MHM.

Tumbleweed writes down and says OKAY, SO WE NEED
FOOD.
AND FIREWOOD.

Black mouse says MAYBE WE WANT PATIO FURNITURE
AND BOWLING BALLS, BUT WE DON'T
REALLY NEED THEM.

Tumbleweed says THIS IS TRUE.

Bunny says IT FREAKS ME OUT WHEN HE
HOLDS A PENCIL.

Black hamster says I GUESS I DON'T NEED A
CURLING IRON.

Tumbleweed says OKAY, SO WE NEED
FLASHLIGHTS, BUT WE PROBABLY
JUST WANT A JUICER AND AN 18th
CENTURY ARMOIRE.

The list on the table reads "Need; firewood, food, flashlight, blanket, tent, cooler, tarp. Want; juicer, 18th century armoire, curling iron, patio furniture, bowling balls."

Black hamster says I'M STARTING TO GET MY HAIR
DONE.

They all talk over each other.

Tumbleweed says YEAH, WE PROBABLY
DON'T NEED A BUMPER CART EITHER.
[Music playing]

That night they all stand by the fire in front of a checkered red and white tablecloth on the ground and say HMMMM.
CAMPING IS THE BEST.

Black mouse says I'M JUST GLAD WE KEPT IT
SIMPLE AND ONLY BROUGHT THE
THINGS WE REALLY NEED.

Tumbleweed says IN THE END, WE
WANTED A BIG FANCY HOLIDAY, BUT
WE DIDN'T REALLY NEED ONE.

Brown guinea pig says JUST ROUGHING IT WITH YOUR
FRIENDS.

Bunny says YES!

Sal looks from behind the bushes and says COME ON, TRY THE PEACH
COBBLER.
PEACH COBBLER!

Guinea pig says HOW ABOUT PASSING ME SOME OF
THAT PEACH COBBLER?

Someone says YEAH, ME TOO!

Sal says COME ON...
EAT IT!

Tumbleweed says HOW IS IT?

Guinea pig says IT'S UH...
IT'S OKAY.

Sal says YES, THEY LOVE IT!

Tumbleweed says YOU WANT ANYMORE?

She says HMMM, ONE BITE'S KIND OF
ENOUGH.

Someone comments LET ME HAVE A BITE.

Sal says OH, COME ON!
IT'S GREAT!
EAT IT!

Black mouse says WHO HAS SAID THAT?

The TVO Kids logo appears.
