Bleep/Transcript

In a glass shop D.W. overhears a conversation.

Mother: Stop that! You'll break something.

Teenager: Ph! Whatever.

Mother: That's enough backtalk, young man! You can forget about going to that concert tonight.

Teenager: What?? You can't do that!

Mother: I can. And I have.

Teenager: >BLEEP<

Mother: [GASPS]   She drops a vase which breaks.

''Arthur is working on a model plane. D.W. bursts in.''

D.W.: Arthur, I have to ask you something. What does >BLEEP< mean?

Arthur: [GASPS] He drops his model which breaks.

D.W.: Wow! It happened again!

Arthur: You better not let Mom and Dad hear you say that.

D.W.: Why? What does it... Mrs. Read comes in.

Mrs. Read: Arthur, have you put away your... What's going on in here?

Arthur+D.W.: Nothing.

''After the Tibbles have told D.W. that the Bleep-word turns grown-ups into obedient zombies, D.W. tells Vicita to use it on her parents. She watches the Molina home through binoculars while her own mother calls her for dinner.''

Mrs. Read: Now, D.W.!

D.W.: Just a minute!

Mrs. Read: No, not just a minute! Your dinner's getting cold.

D.W.: No, wait wait wait. Rrr!

Mrs. Read: D.W.!

Victias family is shocked

D.W.: I think she just said it.

Mrs. Read: D.W., are you listening to me?!

D.W.: >BLEEP<   A moment later she looks scared.

Nadine: Uh-oh. ''Nadine waves at D.W. and disappears. D.W. sees Vicita getting in trouble. Mrs. Read comes in.''

Mrs. Read: Dora Winifred Read! What did you just say to me?

D.W.: Em... Can I have a soda?

'' Mrs. Read folds her arms and looks angry. ''

D.W.:Tibbles!

She looks through the binoculars and sees the Molina's living room is empty.

Mrs. Read: What are you doing? The doorbell rings.

D.W.: I'll get it!

''She runs out the door. Downstairs are her Dad and the Molina parents.''

D.W.:''Um... Er... Arthur did it?

Mrs. Read has brought D.W. to bed.

Mrs. Read: Well, you're off the hook this time, because you didn't know what you were saying, but I hope you know now that swear words are not appropriate things to say, especially for three and four year old children.

D.W.: Why?

Mrs. Read: Because most people are offended by them. It's as simple as that.

D.W.: But why? What do they mean?

Mrs. Read: I guess you could say they mean "I want to hurt your feelings“. Goodnight, D.W..   She goes out.

D.W.: Why didn't somebody just tell me that in the first place? Wait till the kids at school hear about this.

At school the entire school says the bad words

Victia:Thanks for teaching it to us you [Beep]!

D.W.:Guys I think we might have to talk about it.
