''At the Moose Mountain gift shop.''

'''Muffy:''' I think it’s time for you to expand your retail horizons. You should carry one of these. It’s a global positioning system, the latest in navigation technology. I got it at the Sherpa Image. Our position is thirty-nine steps, forty degrees North by Northwest from our minivan. Whatever. Now I’ll ask it to give me the location of the nearest mall.    ''The GPS beeps.''   Twenty-seven miles away?? We’ve fallen off the face of the earth.

'''Fern:''' I have a question. What can you tell me about the dark side of the mountain?

'''Ranger Jackie:''' What?

'''Fern:''' You know, a little history, something like an abandoned goldmine haunted by the wails of those who died there driven mad by their greedy obsessions. Or maybe a ravine with the remains of a wagon that plunged over the side, the bones and dreams of the pioneers crushed and shattered on the pitiless rocks below. Or how about a desolate campsite where explorers shared their last rations before disappearing forever into the harsh and silent wilderness.

'''Ranger Jackie:''' Mercy, no!

''Fern has a fantasy with herself as Zutzut (Tintin) and Francine as Captain Haddock.''

'''Francine:''' Move it, Fernfern, you sloth-footed slowpoke!

'''Fern:''' Commander, may I remind you one wrong move could trigger a rockslide.

'''Francine:''' Plotting, perambulating pedestrian!

''Francine and Fern reach a rope bridge.''

'''Fern: '''A rope bridge! Zutzut crossed one of these in the Pearl Palace. 

'''Francine:''' Come on, then. 

'''Fern: '''Um... Francine, I have to go to the bathroom. 

'''Francine:''' Aw. Fine!   Go into the bushes over there and make it quick! 

'''Fern: '''No way! I'm going back to the rest area.

'''Francine:''' You're on your own then. I'm fifteen minutes ahead of schedule and I'm not going back.  ''She steps onto the bridge.''

''Mr. Frensky and Muffy are a little bit behind. Muffy is talking on her cell phone.''

'''Muffy: '''Can you still hear me, Daddy? Great! How about now? Great! And now?   ''They reach Fern.''

'''Mr. Frensky: '''Hey, roadrunners! Everything okay? 

'''Francine:''' Fern has to go to the bathroom. Indoors!

'''Mr. Frensky: '''Okay. Well, we're not that far from the rest area. You two can go back and
we'll all wait for you here.  ''The other girls are catching up. ''

'''Francine:''' She can go by herself!

'''Mr. Frensky: '''That's not how it works. Fern is your buddy. 

'''Fern: '''Either way, I really need to go. Now!

'''Mr. Frensky: '''Francine Alice Frensky!    ''Francine comes back.''

''After taking a shortcut, Francine is unsure about the way.''

'''Fern:''' Francine, make up your mind.

'''Francine:''' Quiet! I’m thinking.

'''Fern:''' Are we lost?

'''Francine:''' No, I’m just not exactly sure where we are.

'''Fern:''' Yay, we’re lost! Now we can have a real adventure!

=== # ===
''Francine has pulled Fern out of a swamp.''

'''Francine:''' Whatever happens, we have to stick together.

'''Fern:''' I guess I’m no Zutzut.

'''Francine:''' No, but you’re pretty good at figuring things out when you’re just being Fern.

''The girls see a hawk circling over them.''

'''Fern:''' It’s a vulture! We must have “Early Bird Special” written all over us![[Category:Unfinished Transcripts]]
