BARNEY:
Oh, that's very impressive.

Hey, don't scramble our egg.

BARNEY:
Oh, look, it's turning green.

That's number three.

Oh, just two more to go.

CODY:
Hey, where'd it go?

I don't know.

ABBY:
Look! There it is.

-MARCELLA:
No, mister, don't do it.

-No!

(BLOWS TUBA)

CHILDREN:
No, mister, no!

BARNEY:
No, after it. Come on!

CODY:
This way, let's go.

Oh, hurry.

Oh, there it goes.

Wide open! Touchdown!

(LAUGHS) Yeah!

-What?

-GIRLS:
BJ!

BJ makes the play of the game.

The world's greatest football player, BJ. Yeah!

-Great catch, BJ.

-Yeah!

-You should see me throw.

-What?

-No.

-Oh, no.

CODY:
No!

(CELEBRATORY TUNE PLAYS)

It's on that woman's hat.

Well, she's going into that restaurant.

MARCELLA:
What

are we waiting for? Let's go.

Go, quick. After her.

Oh, man, I'm really, really sorry.

Oh, that's okay, BJ.

You didn't mean to do anything wrong.

But, Barney, I...

I gotta go. Bye. Wait for me.

Okay.

(WALTZ PLAYING)

Where is she?

I don't see it.

BARNEY:
Very fancy.

There it is.

CODY:
Let's go get it!

Welcome to Chez Snobbe.

Come right this way please.

Where is the egg?

We're just gonna have to look.

I can create a little distraction

to get everyone's attention.

Man, they are

gonna throw us out of here for sure.

Well, what exactly are you gonna do, Barney?

Barney?

-Where'd he go?

-Barney.

ABBY:
Barney? Where is he?

Look!

Ladies and gentlemen.

On behalf of Chez Snobbe,

I'd like to invite you

to sing along with one of the all-time great

musical masterpieces.

Maestro.

(UPBEAT JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING)

(SINGING) If all the raindrops

were lemon drops and gumdrops

Oh, what a rain that would be

What's he doing up there?

Standing outside with my mouth open wide

-Oh, that's the distraction!

-Oh, that's the plan!

Yeah, come on, guys.

Oh, what a rain that would be

If all the snowflakes

were candy bars and milkshakes

-Ew, not in there.

-Oh, what a snow that would be

-Enjoy your thing.

-Standing outside with my mouth open wide

If all the snowflakes

were candy bars and milkshakes

Oh, what a snow that would be

Ew, snails. You really eat this stuff?

If all the raindrops

were lemon drops and gumdrops

Oh, what a rain that would be

Standing outside with my mouth open wide

If all the raindrops

were lemon drops and gumdrops

Oh, what a rain that would be

If all the raindrops

were lemon drops and gumdrops

Oh, what a rain that would be

Standing outside with my mouth open wide

If all the raindrops

were lemon drops and gumdrops

Oh, what a rain...

Oh, what a rain... Oh, what a rain that would

(TRUMPET BLARING)

Be!

CHILDREN:
We looked all over.

We can't find it anywhere.

-Look, there it is.

-(GASPS)

Quick, after it!

Thank you. Thank you.

(SPEAKING FRENCH)

(SPEAKING FRENCH)

Barney, here it is.

May I?

Salmon!

Where's the egg?

-Oh, that great big colorful thing?

-BARNEY AND CHILDREN: Yes!

-We put it in a to-go sack.

-What?

We sent it back to the clowns at the circus.

BARNEY AND CHILDREN: The circus!

WAITER:
They have been playing tricks

on us ever since they got to town.

It's one of their take-out orders.

Wait until they crack it open.

What? Oh, I don't like the sound of that.

Come on, everybody. Good night.

Thank you.

-There you go.

-Thank you.

And you!

It's got to be in one of those bags.

Let's split up. I'll go with Marcella.

And you two go together.

Okay.

Wait, this way.

Did you see an egg

about this big, has stripes on it?

No, no.

Look, look in the bag.

Turn it...

(SIGHS)

Very colorful stripes around it.

-Sure, have you seen that?

-Yeah.

Have you seen our egg? It's about this big.

No.

Mister, have you seen our egg?

-It has colorful rings on it.

-No.

Excuse me, could you help me out?

I'm looking for an egg.

-I really need to find it.

-(SQUEAKS)

BOTH:
No.

No.

No.

-Did you find it?

-Did you guys find it?

I didn't see it anywhere.

There it is, there it is.

BARNEY:
Oh, quick. Get it! Get it!

Hurry, get it.

ALL:
Oh, no!

BARNEY:
There it goes!

ABBY:
Hurry.

ABBY:
Somebody catch it!

BARNEY:
Nice bounce.

No, stop it. No!

Go after it!

Excuse me.

Whoa!

You caught me by surprise,

my large purple friend.

I like surprises.

Surprises are for birthdays.

And birthdays go with cakes.

-But Mister...

-Whoa!

What is it, young lady?

That's our egg you're juggling.

That's good. I like eggs.

Eggs are for breakfast and

that means frying pans.

It's a dream-maker.

Please, I'm worried about it.

Well, young lady,

if there is a sudden gust of gravity,

will the dream-maker bounce?

-No.

-Then we are both worried about it.

There is a way to stop.

Called the Peking duck trick.

How does that go?

The Peking duck trick goes like this:

First, you all close your eyes.

-Are you peeking?

-BOTH:
No.

Then duck.

ALL:
Whoa!

Where'd it go?

Where's the egg?

CHILDREN:
Where's the egg?

CODY AND ABBY:
Where is the juggler?

(RAIN SPLASHING)

-Oh, great.

-Oh, no.

-Come on, let's go!

-CODY:
Come on, we're gonna get wet.

-Come on!

-Let's get under the tent. Come on.

Oh, sorry. Hurry!

This is not good.

MARCELLA:
It's just gone.

We've lost the egg again

and this time we are never going to find it.

Well, don't give up.

When the rain stops,

we can look around some more,

and then maybe we can find it.

We already looked around.

We're not gonna find it.

We've lost it.

You don't even wanna find it.

You never did.

-No, I...

-It was crazy kid stuff.

-Wait, no.

-What's wrong with just being a kid, Cody?

What's wrong with that?

I...

Cheer up, Abby.

We'll find that egg.

(JOYFUL EXCLAMATION)

(SINGING) When it looks like

all is lost and you're feeling really sad

It doesn't do a bit of good

to keep on feeling bad

Just make up your mind

that you're gonna see it through

And soon I know you'll find

that you can make your dreams come true

We're gonna find a way

We're a super-dee-duper team

And when we stick together

there's no storm we can't weather

No matter how dark it may seem

We're gonna find a way

We're gonna save the day

We'll solve the situation with our imagination

We're gonna find a way

When things are going wrong

We can make our own good luck

The only time we ever fail

is when we just give up

Don't be a quitter now

there's some tricks left up our sleeve

We'll get through this somehow

if we can only just believe

ALL:
We're gonna find a way

We're a super-dee-duper team

That's it.

And when we stick together

there's no storm we can't weather

No matter how dark it may seem

We're gonna find a way

We're gonna save the day

We'll solve the situation with our imagination

(BARNEY BEATBOXING)

We're gonna find a way

(CHILDREN PANTING)

I don't know where that egg is

but I'm not gonna be a quitter.

Me neither.

Cody?

Sure, Ab. We'll find that egg.

We won't quit looking till we do.

That's the spirit.

Hey, look. A sun shower.

Here we go.

One for you, one for you. One for you.

And one for me.

MARCELLA:
So, where do we go next?

CODY:
Come on, let's find the egg.
