| === Title Card: Arthur in Shower === | | === # === |
| ''D.W. and Arthur are in Grandma Thora’s living room. D.W. drops a few books in front of two stuffed animals.'' | | '''Arthur: '''I don't wanna look like a fool on TV. |
|
| |
|
| '''D.W.:''' These books are due back in three weeks. This book is overdue. You owe me six hundred dollars. If you don't have the money, I do take credit cards.
| | '''D.W.: '''You can't trick the cameras, Arthur! |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' D.W., shh! I don't want to miss anything.
| |
| | |
| '''TV Announcer:''' And now, back to Treasure Caravan. ''On TV a woman looks at a chair.''
| |
| | |
| '''Evaluator:''' Tell me where you found this chair.
| |
| | |
| '''Man:''' Well, I bought it for ten dollars at a yard sale. Turns out that it's not that comfortable to sit on. So I've been keeping it in the garage. ''D.W. steps in front of the TV.''
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' D.W., move.
| |
| | |
| '''Grandma Thora:''' Ten dollars. Who knows what it's really worth.
| |
| | |
| '''D.W.:''' It's just an ugly chair.
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' That's what you think.
| |
| | |
| '''Evaluator:''' I would say it was made some time in the 1790s.
| |
| | |
| '''Grandma Thora:''' It's a Federal-style chair.
| |
| | |
| '''D.W.:''' So what?
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' Shh!
| |
| | |
| '''Evaluator:''' There are teeth marks on the legs. I'd say it was once owned by someone with a dog.
| |
| | |
| '''Man:''' I wondered about that.
| |
| | |
| '''Evaluator:''' Of course it would be better if there were no teeth marks. However, at auction this chair could easily bring... ''She thinks.''
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' A thousand dollars?
| |
| | |
| '''Grandma Thora:''' It's got teeth marks. I'm going to say five hundred.
| |
| | |
| '''D.W.:''' You've got to be kidding.
| |
| | |
| '''Evaluator:''' Thirty thousand dollars.
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' Thirty thousand dollars!
| |
| | |
| '''D.W.:''' For that old thing?
| |
| | |
| '''Grandma Thora:''' And to think he paid ten dollars for it.
| |
| | |
| '''Kate:''' (giggles)
| |
| | |
| '''Grandma Thora:''' I love this show. ''She kisses Kate.''
| |
| | |
| '''Evaluator:''' That's it for this week's edition of Treasure Caravan. Be sure to join us next time when the Treasure Caravan will be coming to you from the Elwood City Center.
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur+Thora:''' Hh!
| |
| | |
| '''Evaluator:''' So come on out. And remember, every treasure has a story. ''Grandma Thora turns off the TV.''
| |
| | |
| '''Grandma Thora:''' This is our chance to be on Treasure Caravan. I'm going to call and get us tickets.
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' But we have to find something good to take. I don't want to be one of those people who brings in a piece of junk.
| |
| | |
| ''In a fantasy Arthur puts a bugle on a table in front of the Treasure Caravan evaluator.''
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' It's a bugle from the Civil War. ''The evaluator looks at it.''
| |
| | |
| '''Evaluator:''' Oh, my, it can't be from the Civil War period. It's plastic. ''She taps it on the table.''
| |
| | |
| '''Audience:''' (laugh)
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' Are you sure?
| |
| | |
| '''Evaluator:''' This is just a cheap little toy. But maybe you could use it as a noisemaker. ''She blows the bugle. It makes a honking sound. Arthur buries his face.''
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' Oh!
| |
| | |
| ''The fantasy ends.''
| |
| | |
| '''Arthur:''' I don't wanna look like a fool on TV.
| |
| | |
| '''D.W.:''' You can't trick the cameras, Arthur. | |
| | |
| '''Grandma Thora:''' I bet we can find something worth taking in my attic. Come over tomorrow and we'll see.
