FADE IN:

INT. BEN COHEN'S ROOM - MORNING

10-year-old BEN COHEN, with a heroic smile, wakes up to the chirping of birds outside his window. His room is a typical boy's sanctuary, with posters of his favorite basketball players adorning the walls and a collection of action figures neatly arranged on the shelves. He jumps out of bed, eager to start the day.

BEN:

(to himself)

Today's the day! I'm going to watch the Love Ducks marathon.

Ben hears a knock at his door and his mother, LULU COHEN, pokes her head in.

LULU COHEN:

(smiling)

Happy birthday week, Ben!

BEN:

(beaming)

Thanks, Mom! Can't wait to see what Grandma Bubby got me!

LULU COHEN:

Why don't you come downstairs and find out? She's waiting for you in the living room.

Ben races downstairs, his heart fluttering with excitement. The aroma of freshly baked cookies wafts through the house, hinting at the surprise that awaits him.

BEN:

(out of breath)

Wow, Grandma Bubby! You're here! Happy birthday to me!

Well, I wouldn't miss it for the world, my little love duckling!

Yellow Love Duck transition to the Song: Dancing on the Ceiling sung by Olaf the Oaf

INT. Hotel Room - Evening

Olaf the Oaf lies in bed as Nurse Penny Cillin as a ghost with non-invisible tap dancing shoes comes in. She starts tap dancing on the ceiling.

Olaf the Oaf:
(singing)

She dances overhead,

On the ceiling near my bed.

In my sight,

Through the night. (scats)

I try to hide in vain,

Underneath my counterpane.

There's my love,

Up above.

Olaf the Oaf plays a harmonica solo as she tap dances

I love my ceiling more,

Since it is a dancing floor,

Just for … my love.

She accidentally breaks a hole in the ceiling. A Little Girl (from the interview segment of Elmo’s World: Hair) peeps through the hole and tells her grandmother.

Little Girl:
(angrily)

Grandma! Someone's tap dancing on the ceiling again!

Little Girl’s Grandmother: How many times have I told you?! No dancing on the ceiling in the hotel, young lady!

Excuse Us, Sir! Have you seen the film reel for the Love Ducks movie?

(Nods, pointing)

It's in the projection booth, ma'am. But Mr. Knox said it's only for the VIPs.

Yellow Love Duck transition to the Song: Feet sung by Nurse Penny Cillin in Indian-style

INT. Indian Palace - Night

Nurse Penny Cillin pets the Cobra as the Cobra plays a pungi to hypnotize the Snake charmer named Buck Trollie

NURSE PENNY CILLIN: (singing)

I've forgotten your eyes, Cause they no longer hypnotize my memory.

I've forgotten your nose, And the way that it grows in some kind of dignity.

And I've forgotten your lips, And your cool fingertips, oh, sort of sweet…

But I'll never forget, No, I'll never forget your feet

Buck Trollie’s feet sticking out of the basket (done by Lucia Becker) as he tap dances with Nurse Penny Cillin

Forget your feet? I'd sooner forget my name and address.

To forget your feet, It would take a case of amnesia, no less.

To forget those arches, those insteps, those toes,

Those bountiful bunions I used to greet, When in abject surrender,

I fall adoringly at your feet!

I remember your ears, But they no longer make the tears run down my cheeks!

And I remember your knees, But they no longer please

I remember your chin, But your chin don't even begin to compete

With the memory of those Ooooo memory of your feet!

You’re Talk about feet

You’re Talk about feet

Talk about, feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet!

When all is forgotten your feet will remain!

Yeah, feet!

They march up and down inside of my brain.

When I see those titanic toenails so sweet,

That huge metatarsals, so indiscreet,

And I know when I die,

Well of course I will cry,

Right before the last beat of my heart,

I will start to repeat

That phrase so sweet

In Latin it's "su pies"

In French is "vos pieds"

But in English it's, short and terse and it's sweet

Now these filthy — what makes my (coughs)

Those things aren't petite!

Your thin, fan, foolish, fabulous,

Fantastic and fantabulous,

Hulking, bulking, huge and wonderful,

Rooming, booming, bold and blunderful,

I mean they're filming — glowing, wonderful FEET!

You kicked me that time!

Feet! Woo! They're just so — oh my — (falls)

Toot toot tootsie, Hello!
