Binky Goes Nuts/Transcript

Introduction
An orange butterfly flies on the school ground where Muffy is sunning herself.

Muffy: Ah! Perfect tanning weather. The butterfly lands on her nose.  Ooh! Shoo, shoo! ''She takes out a voice recorder. '' Note to self: orange is the new black. Must-have item for summer: orange bikini with matching flip-flops.

The butterfly lands on a ball that Buster and Brain are playing with.

Buster: Hey, what a cool butterfly.

Brain: I don't believe it. It's Speyeria cybele, the great spangled fritillary. It's very rare for these parts. ''First Brain then Buster get hit by spitballs. ''

Binky and Molly are hiding behind the jungle gym.

Buster: Hey!

Binky+Molly: (laugh)

Binky: They never knew what hit 'em! The butterfly lands on his arm.

Molly: Stay still. Let me see if I can hit it.

Binky: No way, leave it alone!Hitting kids with spit-balls is one thing, but butterflies are harmless, beautiful creatures that...  ''He begins rubbing the place where the butterfly sat. It looks red and swollen.''   Hey! What's going on? I'm all itchy.

Molly: I think we should go to the nurse, now. She leaves with Binky.

Buster: Huh! I didn't think butterflies could bite.

Brain: They can't.

At the hospital Binky is being examined by Dr. Kingsbury.

Binky: I'm telling you, it was that butterfly. That's when I started feeling itchy.

Dr. Kingsbury: No, Binky, you're not allergic to butterflies. You're also not allergic to pet dander or tree pollen. If you were, you'd see a red bump in one of these circles. Binky has a prick test on his arm.

Binky: Oh, well that's a relief. It'd really stink if I couldn't pet pets or climb trees!

Dr. Kingsbury: But your blood did test positive to an allergy to peanuts.

Mrs. Barnes: Oh my!

Binky: Mom, relax. I don't even like peanuts that much.

Mrs. Barnes: Peanut allergies can be quite serious, Binky. I'm a nurse, I've seen anaphylaxis before

Binky: Who's Anna Phylaxis? Is she at my school?

Dr. Kingsbury: Anaphylaxis is a reaction you could get if you eat peanuts again. Instead of a rash, it could be hard to swallow, or even breathe. We don't want that happening to you. That's why I want you to read these. He hands Binky brochures about peanut allergy.

Binky: Great, more homework.

Dr. Kingsbury: The more you learn about your allergy, Binky, the easier it'll be to cope with

Binky: Aw.

Binky is in a candy store talking to his mother on the phone.

Binky: I haven't decided yet. No, I'm not going to get peanut brittle. I don't even like peanut brittle! Okay, bye. Jenna appears behind a counter.

Jenna: How about Gummy Slugs? There are no peanuts in those. She throws him a bag.

Binky: I don't like Gummy Slugs. They're too gummy, and how do you know about... He throws the bag back.

Jenna: Your allergy? Your mom sent an email to all the parents in class.

Binky: She did?? ''He facepalms. ''

Jenna: It's no big deal. My mom did the same thing when we found out I was allergic to milk.

Binky: Milk, huh? Wow! That's terrible. Milk is in everything.

Jenna: Tell me about it. Ice-cream, chocolate, even cheese. But you get used to it. There's a really good ice-cream made from rice milk.

Binky: How'd you find that out?

Jenna: Research. ''Binky's cell phone rings. '' And the more you know, the less your parents bug you.

Binky: into the phone:  Cashews. I'm buying cashews.

Jenna: Come on, I'll show you the allergy section in the library.

''Binky sits at a special table in the cafeteria with Molly and two other kids. He shows an injector stick.''

Binky: It's a medicine auto injector. If I start feeling sick, one shot of this and I'm A-okay. I keep it right here in my new Bionic Bunny belt pack. ''He puts the stick in the pack. Buster approaches.''

Buster: Hey, Binky. Can I see it?

Molly: Hold it right there. You packing peanuts, long-ears?

Buster: No, I haven't had a peanut all day. I swear! Molly tastes Buster's soup and looks in his sandwich.

Molly: He's clean. You! Sit here!
