Red Seeks Tunnel to Puckett Grove
Red Are these tunnels? I need one that leads to Puckett Grove! Oh...
[looks at Japeth, who is swinging around on the chandelier and yodeling; sighs and turns back to the map]
A Spellbound Encounter at Granny Puckett's House
Red Hello! Hello. I'm looking for...Granny Puckett's house?
[sees a mine shack across the meadow and runs towards it; Japeth is rocking on his horns as Red walks up the hill to the front porch; Japeth doesn't hear her and continues yodeling]
Japeth Graaaaaaaanneeee Puckeeeet...
[singing]
Red Could you stop singing for one moment?
Japeth No I can't, I wish I could, but a mountain witch done put a spell on me, 37 years agoooooooo, and now I gotta sing every thing I saaaaaaaaayyyyyy...
[singing]
Red Everything?
[beat]
Japeth That's right.
[speaking]
Red You just talked! Just now!
[points a finger at Japeth]
Japeth Oh, did I? Did I? Dididididodadidididoooo...
[singing]
Granny's Homemade Treats Excite the Kids
Granny Ooh, almost forgot. I made you kids some snicker-doodles.

2-Tone Gimme one of those!
Zorra Yeah, snicker-doodles. Those are my favorite.
2-Tone Snickadeedoo!
Challenges in the Goody Business
Kirk What the schnitzel? My schnitzel truck, it's been... They stole everything!
[sputters]
Boingo Oh, that's too bad. It's not easy being in the goody business these days, huh?
[the children part to reveal Boingo, holding Red's carrot crumpet]
Kirk I'm getting schnitzeled left and right today! I cannot even sell the bunion cream! Now I'm gonna lose my job!
Boingo Well chin up, mister! Maybe someday, somebody will open up a great big goody shop, and we can all work for that little guy.
Recipe Theft and Banditry Unfolds
Wolf You can't hold on to those recipes forever! I'll get you and your little granny too!
Chief Grizzly Yep, that settles it. We've got our bandit.
[offscreen; cuts back to the interview]
Flippers Ah, could be. I'd like to count my chickens after they hatch.
Timmy Chickens?
[oinks]
Red You've gotta admit, a wolf? Stopping kids in the middle of the forest? That's pretty creepy!
Flippers Hmm, yes, right. But we don't arrest people for being creepy.
[nods]
Tommy Yeah, Bruce, you know that guy we've got in the tank?
[on radio]
Bruce Uh, the creepy one?
Tommy Yeah, better let him go.
Flippers So you went on to Granny's?
[to Red]
Red I found an old trail up the north side of the mountain.
Misunderstandings Among Friends in a Quirky Situation
Flippers So, you didn't jump through the window, you were pushed. By a tree. Because you were pretending to be a woodsman. To sell foot cream.
Kirk I got the callback!
Flippers And good for you. Suffice to say, our thespian friend here knows the least about anything.
Kirk Exactly! What does that mean?
Chief Grizzly That it all points to Granny.
Humor in a Tense Situation
Chief Grizzly This guy's a loon.
[to Det. Stork about Kirk]
Det. Stork Watch it, chief. My mama's half-loon.
Flippers My, my. You're a big fellow. Shop at the Big and Tall store?
[to Kirk]
Kirk This is a big and tall mistake! I would not hurt a butterfly!
Det. Stork Then what's this?! A letter opener?!
[slams Kirk's pick axe down in front of him]
Chief Grizzly Yeah that's a funny accent you got there, choppy.
Kirk I can do the Cowboy accent. "Howdy, partner!
[cowboy accent]
Flippers Indeed you can. Say, before you ride off into the sunset, you think you could rustle us up some information?
Shortcut to Adventure and Surprises
Wolf Now this is a shortcut!
Twitchy What's that? Sounds like an avalanche!
Wolf Well Twitchy, that's natural. It's just Old Man Mountain showing us who's boss.
Twitchy Hey lookie-lookie, I found this box of candles! A big box!
Wolf Box of candles? Light em up! Wow that's nice and bright. What kind of candles are those?
[Twitchy lights one, and holds up...a stick of dynamite with a sparking fuse]
Wolf AH! Lose the candle!
[freaking out]
Wolf You hear something?
Twitchy Hmmm?
Wolf Huh. Come on, let's get to Granny's.
Concerns About Safety and Adventure
Woodpecker Watchya readin', Red? "Far Away Places"? Are you going somewhere far away?
[sees the magazine cover]
Red No. The world is too dangerous for me.
[throws her arms up in exasperation, in the process throwing her magazine away. It lands spread-open on a passing car]
Driver Aah! Can't see! Danger! Turn into the skid! I'm okay! I'll walk it off!
[swerves and revs his engine; cuts back to Red as we hear the sound of screeching tires, followed seconds later by a loud crash. Red gives a tense look to the camera]
Woodpecker You can't go away! Who's gonna ride the goody bike?
Red If I had wings like you, I'd fly all the way past that mountain, and the next one and the next one...but I can't. I'm just a kid.
[waves towards a snowcapped peak in the distance]
Woodpecker I'm just a woodpecker. Uh-oh. "You're next!"? What does it mean, "You're next!"?
[Red hears the sound of glass being shattered and flinches; Red shimmies down the rope and runs over to Granny's store, nearby, and finds the front window shattered. She opens the door, picks up a rock on the floor, and finds the words "YOU'RE NEXT!" written on it; fluttering down and landing next to Red's feet]
Owner Ruined...
[turns and trudges away, muttering to herself]
Red It means someone wants our recipes...
[looks back at the store safe; and with determination, she grabs the recipe book from the safe]
Woodpecker Are they gonna get your recipes?
Red Not today.
[glares at him; loads the book into her basket and places it under a tray]
Flippers So, you deliberately took your granny's recipes from the family vault, without permission?
[grabbing a sandwich from the fridge]
Red Help yourself.
Flippers And then, you set off on a dangerous journey up the mountain alone?
[flicks an olive off the toothpick, snatching it out of the air with his tongue]
Red Yeah. I guess I did.
A Call to Action for Red
Granny Red!
Red Granny?
[looks up and, to her shock, sees Granny in the clouds above her]
Granny Use the hood, Red! Use the hood!
Red What?!
[looks in disbelief as Japeth flies past her, holding his banjo and wearing antlers with rotors on the ends]
Japeth I was prepared!
[flies up and away as Red looks on, bemused]
Preparation for a Surprise Visit
Red Granny?
Granny Huh? What's that? Who's there?
Red It's Red. I'm on my way to come see you-
Granny Oh my, dearie, I-I'm not prepared! I need to...put down fresh doilies! Aah!
[slips on something]
Red Granny! Granny! What's wrong?
Granny Gotta go, munchkin. Banzai!
[hangs up]
Red Oh no! Mr. Goat, my granny's in trouble! I've got to find a way around the mountain, fast!
[a worried expression creeps over her face; hangs up and turns to Japeth, wild-eyed]
Red Oh, good! More singing...
Casual Greetings Among Friends
P-Biggie Yo, Triple-G! What's up, baby?
2-Tone Granny! What's happening?
Granny What up, my homies?
Misunderstandings in a Serious Situation
Flippers What's with the handcuffs on a little girl? Her wrists could slip right out! How bout a cage?
Det. Stork Bring in the cage!
[on walkie-talkie, eager]
Flippers I was being sarcastic.
Det. Stork Sarcasm. Strike the cage...
[on walkie-talkie, disappointed]
Chief Grizzly Well all right. Get the cuffs off her.
[sighs]
Nicky Flippers So, Red, why don't you explain how this all began?
Red Well, like any other day: I was making deliveries to my granny's goodie shop.
Forest Dangers and Granny's Recipes
Boingo I guess running the cable car's not so bad. You know, it's a great way to see the forest without having to worry about all the big, hairy beasts down there!
Red Beasts?
[unnerved]
Boingo Oh, yeah, you know, beasts- the-the wolves, and the bobcats, and the mountain lions, and the...sabre tooth tigers! Bu-but mostly wolves. Mostly wolves. Forests can be a dangerous place for a little guy like me, with my, well look at me, I'm fuzzy. Hey, you deliver up this far?
[hops over towards her end of the cabin]
Red Well, not usually. But I was thinking about what you told me earlier - about the Muffin Man? I need to protect Granny's recipes from that bandit's evil plan. They're gonna shut down everyone in the forest if we're not careful.
[the doors fly open and she flails around, trying to keep her balance]
Boingo No!
[jumps for Red's basket]
Wolf Afternoon.
Red Hello.
[beat]
Wolf So, you're the little girl in the red hood? That was quite a bit of falling you did just now.
Red Oh, you saw that.
Wolf: Yep, gravity's working. Those old cable cars on the...You should write a letter. Wow, something smells good. Are those...goodies in there?
[sniffs]
Red I'm not supposed to talk to strangers.
Wolf No, you shouldn't. Good call. So what are you doing out here in the big bad forest? You taking the goodies to someone in particular?
Red Uhhh...my granny.
Wolf Granny? Granny Puckett, the goodie lady? My goodness, she makes some good...goodies. She's got a thing. It's like a, uh, it's like, a, uh...cookies, shortbread chocolate icing between very... It's good. Uh, it's very good. You make deliveries to your granny often?
[sighs]
Red I don't think I should tell you that.
[shakes her head]
Wolf Ah, you don't have anything else in that basket?
Red You ask a lot of questions, mister!
Wolf: Well, I'm a curious guy. Let me have a look.
Red I'd rather you didn't.
A Playful Message from Boingo to Granny
Granny Well, what's your name?
Boingo Umm...just put, "To my biggest and cutest fan, Boingo." And then, like, put some X's and O's and a little smiley face.
A warning amidst unexpected chaos
Kirk Sorry little birds!
Turtle RUN!
[he and his mate start inching along with strained necks]
Skiing Risks and Granny's Confidence
Vincent Oh, yeah.
Dolph You be careful, Granny Puckett! Old ladies get hurt on these slopes!
Granny Bring it, honey.
A Plan to Reach Granny's First
Twitchy So can we eat?
Wolf Sure! You hungry for failure? Maybe a side of unemployment? Cause that's what's for lunch.
Twitchy Well, what do we do?
Wolf We go right to the source. We've gotta get to Granny's before the kid does.
Boingo Is it a surprise?
[appears]
Wolf Excuse me?
Boingo You're going over to Granny's house to surprise Red. I mean, is it her birthday, or what is it? Is there some kind of shim dig, cause I'm great at parties! Watch me pull myself out of a hat!
[forcefully scratches his right ear against his head]
Wolf Yeah. Big surprise party. You know how to get there?
Boingo Oh, yeah! Yeah! In fact, I know a shortcut.
Wolf You hear that? He knows a shortcut.
[to Twitchy, incredulous]
Boingo You go over the woods and through the river...no, you don't wanna go through the river. You'll get all wet.
Wolf You see, Twitchy, you get lemons, you make lemonade. And then that lemonade goes bitter, and ferments, and turns to pig-swill. Never trust a bunny with directions, Twitchy.
[cuts to Wolf and Twitchy walking in ankle-deep water through a dark tunnel; Twitchy turns on his camera light]
Twitchy Sure thing, boss! Never trust a bunny!
Wolf Well the bright side is at least I finally dried off. Why couldn't I write movie reviews? We are in a pickle, and I blame myself. That bunny was worthless. Not to mention he wrote the directions on an Easter Egg... ...which is very hard to read.
[immediately falls into a small hole, soaking his hoodie and bringing the water up to his waist; holds up a brightly colored Easter Egg with illegible handwriting and a tiny map scribbled on the side]
Twitchy Oh, we're gonna die in here!
Wolf Come on, that's what they said at the Alamo!
Investigation of a Domestic Disturbance
Chief Ted Grizzly Bill.
Det. Bill Stork Chief!
[turns around, startled]
Chief Grizzly All right, uh, what have we got?
Det. Stork Ah, it's a domestic disturbance: breaking and entering, wielding an axe without a license, intent to eat...
Chief Grizzly I get the picture. Any connection with the recipe robberies?
Det. Stork You mean the Goodie Bandit? Could be. The house belongs to Granny Puckett.
Chief Grizzly The cookbook lady?
Det. Stork Yeah that's the one.
Chief Grizzly Hmm.
[opens the door]
Det. Stork Okay, Paul Bunyan here was swinging the axe, and Wolfie was trying to eat Li'l Bit.
Chief Grizzly All right, get a muzzle on that guy.
Wolf Hey, I can explain everything.
Chief Grizzly Well you can explain it to the judge. Shouldn't you be in school?
[turns to Red]
Red Shouldn't I have a lawyer?
Chief Grizzly Wha-What are you doing?
[is distracted by something]
Pigs Oh, uh, hey, Chief.
Chief Grizzly Don't eat that! That's evidence!
Timmy Right.
Chief Grizzly All right, so this looks pretty open-and-shut: Little Miss Rosycakes making covert deliveries to the goodie tycoon, Wolfie tries to eat em both, then crazy flannel pants with the axe here busts in swinging vigilante style. Take em downtown, boys!
Det. Stork Uh, it's the woods, Chief. We don't have a downtown.
Chief Grizzly You know what I mean! Just book em!
Nicky Flippers Not so fast, Grizzly. That's the problem with you bears: always growling up the wrong tree.
[enters through the back door]
Chief Grizzly Nicky Flippers? What are you doing here? This is my case!
Flippers Well, well! Someone hibernated on the wrong side of the cave. I saw the lights. Thought the circus was in town. Now of course, I see I was right.
[eyes the four detainees]
Chief Grizzly Well you're too late, Nicky, I've got this case all wrapped up.
Flippers Is that right?
Chief Grizzly Yeah.
Red They've got this all wrong, Mr. Flippers.
Flippers Oh, I don't know. You look very dangerous to me. What's your name?
[walks over to her]
Red Red.
Flippers And why do they call you that?
Red Why do they call you "Flippers"?
Flippers Uh, no reason.
[scratches his tie nervously]
Red They call me "Red" because of this red hood I wear.
Flippers What about when you're not wearing it?
[beat]
Red I usually wear it.
[quietly]
Chief Grizzly Recipes have been coming up missing all over the forest, goody shops have been going out of business for months, and the trail ends here! I got a case to close!
Flippers Slow down, Chief. We've got four suspects, and that means four stories, and if you get people talking long enough, someone will spill the beans.
Tommy Beans?
[oinks]
Wolf Look, could I just make a phone call?
[muffled; cries out as he gets zapped]
Red I'll tell you what happened.
[to Flippers]
Unexpected Roles in a Chaotic Encounter
Wolf Hello! Paper boy. Publishers. Uh, candygram!
[knocks on door; opens the door, finding it unlocked]
Twitchy Huh, whadda we do, boss?
Twitchy Oh....
[bored]
Wolf Ooh! Boy, that's hot. Okay, change of plans, you can be Granny.
[lifts up the mask]
Red Granny? It's me, Red. Is everything okay?
[coming from the foyer]
Wolf Oh, oh, yeah, sure thing. Come on in.
[pulls down the mask]
Chief Grizzly Pretty thin, Wolf! You say the old lady was already tied up! How did that happen?!
[offscreen; cut back to the present day]
Wolf I don't know, maybe to make herself look innocent. I just write the news, Chief! I don't make it.
Red For a reporter, you sure have a strange way of doing your job.
[rolls her eyes]
Wolf: What can I say? I was raised by wolves.
Chief Grizzly You got a way to back this up?
Twitchy I got these pictures developed, Mr. Flippers!
[appears]
Flippers That so? Let's have a look... Hmmm...these are good...Ha... Here's a nice one of you, Wolf.
[examines the photos; shows picture of Wolf mounted in a fish costume]
Twitchy I wanna do an expose sometime; a gallery show. And maybe a coffee table book, course, I don't drink coffee. Maybe a chi tea/latte book.
Flippers Photos don't lie, Chief.
Wolf Good work, Twitchy.
Flippers I wanna know more about this fellow with the axe. How does he fit into all this?
Det. Stork Maybe you should AXE him yourself! Uh, I'll bring him in.
[laughs uncontrollably, until Chief Grizzly stares blankly at him]
Conversation about the Goody Bandit
Wolf How's it goin', Woolworth?
Woolworth Man, what are you doing here?! The shepherd comes by and sees me talkin to you, I'm gonna get the crook!
Wolf Yeah? Well, there's a bigger crook on the loose that I'm concerned about. What do you hear about the Goody Bandit?
Woolworth What do I know from goodies? Hiya, Twitchy.
[sees Twitchy in a sheep suit]
Twitchy Baa!
Woolworth Don't know a thing. Never heard of her. Little Red? Processing. Yeah, yeah, it's coming back to me now. Sweet gal. Not like that Bo Peep. That brat put an invisible fence, I tasted metal fillings for a week!
[Wolf slips him some money]
Wolf Focus! The girl in the hood. You get around the mountain. Who does she work for?
Woolworth How should I know? I ain't that curious! It's the family business. Ain't you ever heard of Granny Puckett?
[Wolf slips him some more money]
Wolf Puckett?
Woolworth That's her grandma.
Wolf The Granny Puckett? You pullin the wool over my eyes?
Woolworth Ha ha, hilarious. You come up with that yourself? That's funny.
[sarcastically]
Wolf You're looking pretty tasty.
[gives a cold glare to Woolworth]
Woolworth Why you gotta be like that? All I know is that the old lady lives up high in the hills. Not a lot of visitors.
Wolf Except the little girl.
Woolworth The word in the herd is that she's been known to take the cable car up the mountain.
Wolf Cable car?
Suspicion Surrounds the Girl in Red Hood
Wolf No deserts. Waste of time. The little delivery girl in the red hood. Always on the go. More goodies passed through her hands than anybody else in the whole forest. She seemed happy. A little too happy. Whoa! Creepy! I was starting to have my suspicions. Question: who does she move the goodies for? Where do they come from? Where are they going? And why the hood? Ah! Twitchy, you scared me.
[on his tape recorder; hears singing, and sees Red riding her bike nearby, narrating; as he watches through some bushes, he sees some hummingbirds carry Red and her bike across a stream; retreats behind the bushes; continues narrating; takes out his tape recorder and presses the record button; as he scratches his chin and ponders, Twitchy falls from the sky and lands on a tree stump next to him, causing him to jump]
Twitchy Hey boss, I called the taped-I beeped you on your beeper. Did you get my beep?
[speaking very quickly]
Wolf Twitchy, you've gotta calm down.
Twitchy I got up early and I got the gear. I was watching the girl like you told me to, the girl in the red hood.
Wolf Yeah, the girl in the red hood. Did you see where she went?
Twitchy She went past the porcupines and the red bird's tree and the guy with the long beard and now she's up the creek and she sings everywhere she goes! She's like lalalalalalalalalala-
[pantomiming]
Wolf Yeah, yeah, I'm way ahead of you. We've gotta find out who she's working for. You got the camera?
Twitchy Got the 220x and a photo-grab with auto-focus. Ooo, look at that - comes with a 500 mm lens. You want the color or black and white?
Wolf Doesn't matter.
Twitchy I brought a flash!
[immediately takes a picture in the Wolf's face, briefly blinding him]
Wolf Will you put that away?! It's covert. No flash!
Twitchy Undercover, got it! Mm-hmm! Nobody sees, nobody knows! Click-click, heh heh!
[takes the flash off; grins]
Wolf You ever thought about decaffeinated coffee?
[stares at Twitchy]
Twitchy Oh, I don't drink coffee!
A Conversation About Changing Circumstances
Boingo Hey Red! Oh, nice outfit! Always "red" with you. You must be in autumn.
[hops into her basket]
Red Hey, Boingo. Aren't you helping the Muffin Man today?
[smiles]
Boingo No, he closed up shop. Somebody took all his recipes last night and now I'm out of a job!
[glumly]
Red Oh, gee, Boingo, I'm really sorry! Are you still running the cable car?
Boingo Yeah. Yeah, I am, but it's nothin like making goodies all day. I'll tell you that.
Red Would a carrot crumpet make you feel better?
[hands him one]
Boingo Oh boy, oh boy! Thanks, Red! I can always count on you to deliver, you little rascally...devil!
[brightens]
Red Yeah, well, the woods don't go round by themselves.
Mother Beaver Come on, let's go.
Child Beaver Where are we going now, mama?
Red With the Goodie Bandit on the loose, recipes were becoming an endangered species. I decided to call Granny. If anyone would know what to do, she would.
[narrating]
Granny I don't know what to do. I'm just a tired old lady.
Red Your recipes are the most famous in the whole forest, Granny! What if they get swiped? It could wipe you out! Maybe I should bring you the recipe book, just for safekeeping!
Granny A trip up the mountain is too dangerous for a little girl.
Red I'm not so little anymore!
Granny Please, dear, you just keep the recipes there and everything will be fine.
Red But-
Granny I have to go now. My program's on. Kisses.
[blows air kisses and hangs up]
Debate on Safety and Independence
Granny A trip up the mountain is too dangerous for a little girl.
Red I'm not so little anymore!
Granny Please, dear, you just keep the recipes there and everything will be fine.
Red But-
Granny I have to go now. My program's on. Kisses. Time to shred some powder!
[blows air kisses and hangs up. The camera pulls back to show Granny is holding ski poles and wearing skis]
Granny Embraces an Unconventional Lifestyle
Granny It's true, I'm not like other grannies. I never did like the quilting bees and the bingo parlors. I'd rather live life to the extreme!
[beginning to tell her story]
Navigating Choices in Uncertain Situations
Wolf Those sheep made me hungry. After this, we're grabbing a bite.
Twitchy Sounds good, sounds good.
Caterpillar 1 I don't know what to do. I mean, should I call her? Should I-
Caterpillar 2 Well she's keeping her options open. Seeing other people probably, you should do the same.
Caterpillar 1 Shh. Up there.
Caterpillar 1 Do you mind?
Wolf Ooh. Sorry.
[embarrassed; aims his radar gun back at the cable car's cabin and continues walking, eventually picking up voices]
Boingo's voice Hey, you deliver up this far?
Red's voice ...but I was thinking of...the Muffin Man...Granny's recipes...an evil plan...to shut down everyone in the forest.
[unintelligible due to static]
Wolf I knew it. She's working for the old lady. Twitchy?
[lowers his radar]
Wolf Ouch. Ugh. Afternoon.
[deadpan, into tape recorder; as Red discovers a footprint, Twitchy swallows his camera. The extra weight causes him to fall from his branch and snap a through-the-mouth flash photo of Red; facepalms; steps out from his hiding place. Red gasps]
Red Hello.
Wolf So, you're the little girl in the red hood? That was quite a bit of falling you did just now. Yep, gravity's working...So what are you doing out here in the big bad forest? Are you taking the goodies to someone in particular?
[Twitchy hides behind his boss and coughs up his camera]
Red Uhhh...my granny.
Wolf Ah, you don't have anything else in that basket?
Red You ask a lot of questions, mister!
Wolf Well, I'm a curious guy. Let me have a look.
Red I'd rather you didn't.
Wolf I mean, please! Come back here! What are you doing?!
[looks at his tail, embarrassed; turns to Twitchy]
Twitchy Sorry! I was just winding! I was just - You had your tail-
Wolf Come on! We're gonna lose her! Red?! Red Riding Hood?! We'll never catch her. Taxi! Whoa, that was her. We passed her. Right here's fine. Suspect is approaching on foot, stolen recipes in basket. I'm about to catch her red-handed. Hand over the basket!
[a taxi cab picks him up, but leaves Twitchy behind; Wolf sees Red run past; the taxi drops off him; into his tape recorder; steps out from behind the tree he is using as cover when Red gets close; she gasps and freezes]
Red Hi-yah!
[starts kicking and punching him]
Flippers So, you really took a beating, from a little girl?
[incredulous]
Wolf Hey.
Red HIIII-YAH!!
[spin-kicks Wolf, causing him to fall on his back, then takes off]
Wolf Come back here, you little brat! Okay. Not cool. You can't hold onto those recipes forever! I'll get you and you little granny too!
[as Twitchy runs, trying to catch up, the Wolf chases Red's cape, not noticing that it is actually being flown by hummingbirds. When he grabs it, he finds it empty, and the camera whips back to reveal him frozen in mid-air past the edge of a cliff; falls and screams into the freezing water below; floating away, and noticing Red standing on the cliff above him; sees a fisherman on the river bank looking at him intently]
Fisherman Hmm. That's fishy.
Wolf What?! They're evil! I'll prove it!
A Humorous Exchange About Names and Drinks
Wolf Don't I get a drink?
Chief Grizzly No!
Flippers So! Mr. Wolf, may I call you Wolf?
Wolf You can call me Sheila. I like long walks and fresh flowers.
Chief Grizzly Quit playing around, Wolf! You're looking at 3 to 5 in an old shoe with no windows, so start singin'!
Flippers Your face looks familiar!
[squints and scrutinizes the Wolf]
Wolf I get around the forest.
Flippers What do you do for a living, Mr. Wolf?
Wolf I'm a shepherd. Hey!
[Stork strikes his hand with his baton]
Red You might as well confess! I told them everything!
Wolf Will you keep her away from me, please!
Flippers I remember you! Three years ago on the Stiltskin case, you were snooping around for a lead on his real name.
Wolf I was close, too. I was going to go with "Greg". Greg Stiltsken.
[nonchalantly]
Chief Grizzly Hang on! Wait a minute, Flippers, you're saying this guy's a cop?
Flippers Worse. He's a reporter.
Red A what?!
Wolf And I've got the real story.
Pirate Humor in a Quirky Conversation
Kirk Arrrgh! Paul's Bunion Cream has the soothing formula...
[trying out for a commercial]
Jimmy Lizard Whoa, whoa, whoa, no! Hold it, hold it! Ho, ho, stop...Look, "Argh"?
[interrupts; music stops]
Kirk Uh-huh...
Jimmy Lizard What...what are ya, some kinda German pirate or somethin'?
Kirk I just got the script, like, five minutes ago...I'm trying...
Jimmy Lizard Okay, sure, sure, um...you're not gettin it...
Uncovering the Truth Behind Familiar Tales
Narrator Red Riding Hood. You probably know the story. But there's more to every tale than meets the eye. It's just like they always say: "You can't judge a book by its cover". If you want to know the truth, you've got to flip through the pages.
[voiceover; cue the sound of a small girl screaming]
Red Granny? It's me, Red. Is everything okay?
[opens the door; hearing nothing, steps into the living room; looks around, uncertain]
Wolf Oh, oh yeah. Sure thing. Come on in.
[falsetto voice]
Red What? Wh-Who are you?
[cautiously approaches him]
Wolf I'm your grandma.
Red Your face looks really weird, Granny.
Wolf I've been sick, I...uh...
[puts his hands over his chest]
Red Your mouth doesn't move when you talk.
Wolf Oh, uh, plastic surgery. Grandma's had a little work done. Now come on over here. Let's have a look at you.
[taps his mask]
Red So...what's going on, "grandma"?
[steps closer, warily]
Wolf Oh, this and that. Doing a lot of quilting. So, you got the loot?
Red Whoa, what big hands you have!
[noticing his furry hands]
Wolf Oh! All the better to scratch my back with!
[does so]
Red And what big ears you have!
Wolf All the better to hear your...many criticisms! Old people just have big ears, dear.
[becoming increasingly irritated]
Red And Granny...what big eyes you have!
[shakes her head in disbelief]
Wolf Are we just going to sit around here and talk about how big I'm getting?! You came here for a reason, didn't ya? So tell ole Granny what you've got in the basket!
[losing his temper; leans in closer to Red]
Red Ugh! Granny! What bad breath you have!
[leans back, disgusted]
Wolf All right!
[pulls off his mask]
Red You again?! What do I have to do, get a restraining order?!
[screams and taking a step back]
Wolf Settle down, little girl, I'm on to you!
Red HI-YAH!
[positions her arms in a fighting stance]
Wolf Save it, Red fu! You've been dodging me all day, but now you might as well give up.
[grabs a fireplace poker]
Red Hi-yah! You crazy wolf! What have you done with Granny?!
[runs into the living room where Wolf manages to corner her]
Wolf I've taken Granny down and you're next!
[grabs her arm]
Red Granny!
Wolf But, you, that's not-
[shocked]
The Wolf's Disguise Revealed
Red Granny? It's me, Red. Is everything okay?
Wolf Oh! Oh yeah, sure thing.
Flippers So this Wolf, he was dressed as your grandmother?
Red Yes.
Wolf I'm your grandma.
[in flashback]
Flippers And you bought that?
Red No. Not really. Whoa, what big hands you have! And what big ears you have! What bad breath you have! What big eyes you have!
[cuts flashback; cut; cut; cut]
Wolf Are we just gonna sit around here and talk about how big I'm getting?!
[in flashback]
Flippers Yes, yes, and then the fellow with the axe burst in?
Red No! No! Not yet! First, I was attacked by that crazy wolf! Hi-yah! You crazy wolf! Then my granny jumped out of the closet. But she was tied up.
[waves her hands in a "stop everything" gesture; everything on-screen except for Red freezes in time, and rewinds; Kirk flies back out the window and the window repairs itself; Wolf corners Red in the living room with a fireplace poker; in flashback; voiceover; Granny bursts out of the closet and emits a battle cry]
Flippers And then the Axeman Cometh?
[snickers]
Red You got it. Only, he was screaming.
[Kirk bursts back through the window]
Kirk Aargh?
[weakly]
Red Like a maniac!
[glares at him, angrily]
Chief Grizzly Wow!
Det. Stork Hmm.
Flippers Ah. So that was it?
Red That wolf was going to eat us all...
Chief Grizzly The guy's pawprints are all over the room. Book him-
Flippers Hold the phone, fuzzy-wuzzy. Let's hear it from the Wolf's mouth.
