Would you like to hear a story?

(T-Shirt is in the curiosity shop, he rocks the rocking horse and walks back and bumps into the mannequin with T-Bag's dress on it, he turns around and opens the chest of toys and starts playing with them, the pirate hat “Are me hearties, swab the deck me lad before I make you walk the plank arrr, the sword “O lowly ones thou shalt not pass”, a jester hat “I say I say I say” and then the aeroplane which he flies around and shoots the mannequin. He hears a voice, “T-Shirt”, he looks around at the mannequin it has T-Bag's head on it, he quickly rubs his eyes and checks again and the mannequin is back to normal. He hears the voice again “T-Shirt”. A story book flings onto the table from on top of a pile of books and it opens up as a pop-up book of T-Bag’s Magic Garden, her new T-Room).
T-Bag: Yuhoo, yuhoo, come a little closer.
Thomas: Cor!
(T-Bag appears in the Magic Garden T-Room).
T-Bag: Tell me little boy, what's your name?
Thomas: Eh?
T-Bag: I said what's your name?
Thomas: Eh T..Thomas.
T-Bag: Thomas, really, tell me Thomas would you like to hear a story?
Thomas: Err.
T-Bag: Of course you would. Listening? Once upon a time there was a naughty little boy called T-Shirt.
Thomas: Was there?
T-Bag: Yes there was. Oh he was a wicked child.
Thomas: Was he?
T-Bag: Yes he was and do you know what this horrid little viper did to his best friend?
Thomas: (Gulps) No.
T-Bag: Betrayed her, tricked her and then banished her! Isn't that a terrible thing to do?
Thomas: I suppose so.
T-Bag: Suppose! Suppose! (lightning strikes) I'll suppose you. Come here!
Thomas: No!
T-Bag: I said come here!
(Thomas appears in the book as T-Shirt).
T-Bag: Haaa.
T-Shirt: T-Bag!
T-Bag: What did you call me boy?
T-Shirt: Oh I mean Your Majesty.
T-Bag: That's better.
T-Shirt: What are you doing here? I thought...
T-Bag: I know what you thought, you thought you had beaten me, you thought you had imprisoned me in that dreadful letters game. Well you thought wrong!
T-Shirt: But how?
T-Bag: Quiet. I'll make you sorry you ever dared gang up against me with that wretched Madam Deborah. Curse her, curse her but that's all in the past, now you're going to serve me once again.
T-Shirt: Oh no I'm not!
T-Bag: Oh yes you are.
T-Shirt: Never, never, never, never.
T-Bag: Come under my power boy!
T-Shirt: Debbie, Debbie, Debbie, Debbie.
(We zoom closer to the book as T-Shirt's cries for help fade away and the book folds up).

Nothing O' Clock and nothing's well

(Debbie walks into the curiosity shop).
Debbie: Hello. Hello. It's me, Debbie. Anybody here? Oh that's very strange.
Hickery (voice): Nothing O' Clock and nothing's well. Nothing O' Clock and nothing's well. Nothing O' Clock and nothing's well.
(Debbie opens the storybook and we see Hickery in the town square).
Hickery: Nothing O' Clock and nothing's well. Nothing O' Clock and nothing's well. Nothing O' Clock and no... oh, oh, go away, go away, shoo, go away.
Debbie: Who me?
Hickery: Yes you, go away, leave us in peace. Skedaddle, vamoose.
Debbie: I'm not going to hurt you.
Hickery: Ohhhhh, that's what they all say, please, go, go. We've quite enough trouble here as it is, don't need any more, thank you very much. Goodbye. Nothing O' Clock and nothing's well.
Debbie: Excuse me. What trouble? Come back.
Hickery: Are you still there? Didn't I make myself plain? Didn't I?
Debbie: You said you were in trouble.
Hickery: Quite right I am and not only me, all of us here. Trouble did you say, oh terrible trouble. Look out, I'm going to start crying (he cries). It's all her fault you know.
Debbie: All her fault. All her fault. Surely he can't mean? Oh but that would be impossible but say if it was. That would be absolutely awful. I better find out, I must get down there. Now what did I do last time? Had to think small, that's it, I had to think small. Hold on a minute.
Hickery: You what?
Debbie: Now think small.
(Debbie thinks small and she is magically transported into the storybook).
Debbie: Ah well, here we go again.

A Maximus brewuppacuppa

T-Shirt: I'm fed up with this already.
T-Bag: What was that?
T-Shirt: Nothing.
T-Bag: Have a care with my valuables T-Shirt.
T-Shirt: I'm only cleaning them.
T-Bag: Just take care.
T-Shirt (mutters): Just take care.
T-Bag: Tell you what, let's have a tea break.
T-Shirt: Oh great, I need a rest.
T-Bag: I didn't say take a rest. Make me a good strong cup of tea.
T-Shirt: Just like the bad old days. Just a minute.
T-Bag: What?
T-Shirt: How can I make a cup of tea? I thought we got rid of your magic T-Plant.
T-Bag: Quite so my cheeky faced little friend. The day you and Madam Deborah destroyed my precious T-Plant was the day I lost all my powers.
T-Shirt: So how come?
T-Bag: How come my powers have returned?
T-Shirt: Yes, how come?
T-Bag: This is how come.
T-Shirt: What's that?
T-Bag: I'll tell you. It's a brand new strain of T-Plant.
T-Shirt: A new T-Plant.
T-Bag: Quite so T-Shirt, a Maximus Brewuppacuppa.
T-Shirt: Eh?
T-Bag: Loosely translated means Enchanted Tea Weed.
T-Shirt: Tea Weed.
T-Bag: Yes, every leaf is packed with ten times the power. Each time I take a cup of tea I can feel it's magical energy surging through my bones. It's sensational, it's T-riffic, it's, it's...
T-Shirt: T-rouble.

Forget Debbie

T-Bag: Bliss, utter bliss, now let's just keep an eye on things, Cake crumbs and crumpets.
T-Shirt: What's up?
T-Bag: It can't be.
T-Shirt: What is it, let me see. It's Debbie!
T-Bag: It can't be working properly. Oh, she's here, she's here, I don't believe it, she's here, she's here.
T-Shirt: Debbie's here.
T-Bag: Miss know-it-all, Miss smarty-pants, Miss pesky nosey parker, clever clogs is here.
T-Shirt: Great.
T-Bag: If you have any fancy ideas about palling up with her again, you can just forget them, in fact forget her. Is that clear? Forget Debbie.
T-Shirt: Forget Debbie.
T-Bag: Forget Debbie.
T-Shirt: Forget Debbie.
T-Bag: Have you forgotten her?
T-Shirt: Who, Debbie?
T-Bag: I said forget her, have you forgotten her now?
T-Shirt: Forgotten who?
T-Bag: Debbie.
T-Shirt: Who's Debbie?
T-Bag: Excellent, now you just wait here T-Shirt.
T-Shirt: Yes, your Majesty.

Don't meddle Miss

Hickery: Numbers, numbers, numbers, i-dee-duh-day, nope.
(T-Bag appears).
Hickery: No. Hello, somebody's left a pair of shoes here and a pair of socks, ooh there's a couple of legs in the socks. Arrrghh, it's you, Baggy pants. I mean, I mean your Majesty.
T-Bag: Please don't grovel, you won't get round me as easily as that.
Hickery: Yes your Majesty, I mean no your Majesty, I, I, I...
T-Bag: Oh stop babbling man, where is she?
Hickery: Who?
T-Bag: You know who.
Hickery: Er, oh, yes, quite, you, you know who.
T-Bag: Precisely.
Hickery: I'm not sure.
T-Bag: Where is she and why is she here? Answer me you old goat.
Hickery: Why should I? It's our little secret.
T-Bag: Oh it's a secret is it? Oh I see, oh well if it's a secret you mustn't tell a soul, let alone me.
Hickery: Right.
(T-Bag puts Hickory under her spell).
T-Bag: Wrong! Tell me.
Hickery: She's come to help.
T-Bag: How?
Hickery: Collect the missing silver numbers.
T-Bag: From the clock?
Hickery: Yes, must put the numbers back on the clock.
T-Bag: So that's her little game. Well, well, well, this time's she's bitten off more than she can chew. I'm more powerful than ever and those silver numbers are scattered in the most far-flung corners of this book, not even clever clogs can find them. So (T-Bag brings Hickory out of her spell), when you see her again give her this message from me. Don't meddle Miss. Get it?
Hickery: Got it.
T-Bag: Good. Toodlepip.
(T-Bag disappears).
Hickery: Good heavens, oh she frightened the life out of me.
