Daniel Tiger: Good morning, neighbor!

Guess what?!

My family and I are

going on a family trip!

We're going to visit...

my Grandpere!

We're even going to sleep there!

I'm going to give

this to Grandpere.

(Daniel pulls out a picture of Grandpere)

Jodi Platypus: This is some kind of torture. Do not allow Daniel to go.

Teacher Harriet: Oh Jodi, don't worry he will be back so soon.

Daniel Tiger: It's a picture of me and him.

Do you think he'll like it?

(Jodi now having enough enters the Tiger's home)

Jodi Platypus: Stop!

Daniel Tiger: I'm so excited

to give it to him!

Our family trip

is going to be grr-ific!

Jodi Platypus: I don't want you going to the crazy old tiger, now get out of here!

(Music for "A Tiger family trip" starts, as Daniel and his family pack)

Daniel Tiger: Bye, fishies!

Jodi will take care

of you while I'm gone. OK?

Jodi Platypus: Leave that to Prince Tuesday, and just stop singing that

stupid song and go!

(Mom Tiger talks to Jodi)

Mom Tiger: Jodi, don't talk like that!

Jodi Platypus: It's that I'm mad!

Mom Tiger: I can see you're mad, but do you know how to calm down?

Jodi Platypus: Yes.

(Jodi calms down and Mom Tiger agrees to let her come)

Daniel Tiger: Blub blub.

(Jodi laughing)

Dad Tiger: Nice work, Daniel.

Now, do we have everything,

Tiger family?

Margaret Tiger: Dee dee! Dee dee!

Daniel Tiger: Can't forget Pandy!

He wants to come too!

Jodi Platypus: I should bring Benji!

Mom Tiger: OK nice choice, Jodi!

(Ding! Ding!)

Daniel Tiger: Look, Trolley's here!

Hi, Trolley.

(They all get on Trolley)

Daniel Tiger: Bye, Prince Wednesday.

I'm going to visit my Grandpere!

Oh, it's Katerina and her mom!

We're going on a long trip.

Bye, Miss Elaina. See you soon!

(Miss Elaina intercepts Trolley and pulls her holoprojector out, a

holographic image of a U-wing is produced.)

Miss Elaina: There is something that you should see, the first order

has blockaded the neighborhood of make believe, you should know about the force, an ally

has pinpointed your location, I have arranged you safer transport on

an old U-wing once used by a group known as Rogue One, I can offer

to take you there!

Mom Tiger: OK, thanks Miss Elaina!

Miss Elaina: You're welcome! and see you soon Daniel!

(Trolley then leaves Museum Go Round)

Daniel Tiger: Mom, what are we going

to do on our trip?

Mom Tiger: So many things!

Daniel Tiger: Like what?

(Jodi gives Mom Tiger a map)

Mom Tiger: I'll show you.

Jodi made you a map of all

the things we'll see on the way to Grandpere's.

Daniel Tiger: Wow!

We're going to see

all of these places:

Mom Tiger: Uh-huh! First,

the twisty road. You see?

Then the dinosaur playground

That has a big dinosaur slide!

Jodi Platypus: Yipee! Skipee!

Mom Tiger: Then the butterfly garden,

Jodi Platypus: Is Miss Elaina supposed to fly us in a U-Wing?

Mom Tiger: She's going to Jodi.

Jodi Platypus: But where is it at?

Mom Tiger: It's in the butterfly garden.

And then...she will quickly take us to Grandpere's house!

Dad Tiger: There's something to see.

The tunnel!

Here we go!

(the voices of the past Jedi could be heard)

Jodi Platypus: This was once the hideout of the old Jedi order.

Qui Gon Jinn V.O.: Let the force guide you Jodi!

Anakin Skywalker V.O.: Bring back the balance as I once did!

(Jodi closes her eyes and feels the force, her powers have awakened)

Jodi Platypus: Through the tunnel!

Chugga chugga, chugga chugga.

Daniel Tiger: That was grr-ific!

Jodi Platypus: Whoa, look at that bridge!

Dad Tiger: Hey, let's play Tiger Spy,

and find all of the new

things that we see.

Mom Tiger: Ooh, I'll play.

Sounds like fun.

Daniel Tiger: Yeah! I'll go first.

You can play Tiger Spy with us!

Tell me if you spy what I spy!

Jodi Platypus: Hmm. This platypus

spies something...orange!

(birds chirping)

(Dad): Then it must be...

Daniel Tiger: Yes! Your turn, Dad,

Dad Tiger: OK, OK. I spy

something...yellow!

Daniel Tiger: Do you see something yellow?

The bananas!

Jodi Platypus: Yes! You got it!

Daniel Tiger: What was that? Ooh!

It's the twisty road!

From our map!

Jodi Platypus: Hang on tight, tigers!

(Jodi pulls a tracking device from her pocket and discovers that the First Order

has arrived)

Jodi Platypus: It's the first order!

Daniel Tiger: Mom? Dad?

Mom Tiger: Yes, Daniel?

Daniel Tiger: I can't wait to give

Grandpere my new picture.

Are we there yet? Are we?

Dad Tiger: No, not yet, Daniel.

We still have a while to go.

(knocking)

Jodi Platypus: Oh, hi, squirrel!

Margaret Tiger: Ga!

Jodi Platypus: Look, Margaret.

Those are deer!

Margaret Tiger: Ga! Ga!

(chuckling)

Jodi Platypus: Margaret, you're so silly!

(Daniel sighing)

(They all stop at the dinosaur playground)

(Jodi ignites her lightsaber and begins her training, she performs

some acrobatic moves and uses force jump.)

Dad Tiger: Now, let's go play on the dinosaur slide! Yes!

Daniel Tiger: Alright!

Dad Tiger: Stomp, stomp, stomp.

I'm a big, stomping dinosaur!

(Jodi turns her lightsaber off and decides to play with them)

(Daniel goes down the dinosaur slide.)

Daniel Tiger: Wow! This dinosaur

playground is grr-ific!

(Jodi and Margaret go down the slide)

Jodi Platypus: Come on, Margaret. Let's go

down the slide together!

(giggling)

One, two, three!

Woohoo! You did it, Margaret!

Mom Tiger: OK, my family and platypus friend, it's almost time

to get back on Trolley!

Daniel Tiger: Aw...Already?

Mom Tiger: That's right, Daniel

choose one more thing!

Um...I know!

I'm going down the slide with Margaret.

(Margaret hesitates and wants to go down the slide with her new friend

Jodi instead)

Jodi Platypus: No Margaret we already went down the slide, your brother

wants to go down the slide with you.

(Daniel and Margaret go down the slide.)

Dad Tiger: Alright! Time to get

back on the road, everyone!

Daniel Tiger: I can't wait

to get to Grandpere's to give him my picture!

He's gonna love it!

Margaret Tiger: Dan! Dan! Dan Dan!

Dad Tiger: Hey Daniel and Jodi, I think Margaret

wants to sit with both of you.

Jodi Platypus: You can sit with us, Margaret.

(They leave the park, the picture falls off Trolley, a black gloved hand picks it up

and sends it to the First Order, it is Kylo Ren)

Kylo Ren: Inform General Hux that we found this picture of Daniel's

grandfather, we will destroy him.)

Stormtrooper: Understood my lord.

Daniel Tiger: Mom, are we there yet?

Mom Tiger: No, not yet, Daniel.

(Daniel humming)

How about now? Dad?

Are we there now?

Dad Tiger: No, Daniel, you're going to

have to wait a little longer.

(Jodi humming)

(Daniel sighing)

Daniel Tiger: It's very, very hard to wait.

Mom Tiger: It is, but...

Kylo Ren (V.O.): No buts, I can see your surroundings

Mom Tiger: You monster!

Kylo Ren (V.O.): You think you tried to outrun us, I want to have

to kill you but I will locate you and bring your husband back to the

dark side, he serves me well!

Jodi Platypus: It is Kylo!

Daniel Tiger: OK! Hey, Margaret.

Want to play a game?

(Margaret giggling)

Where's Margaret's nose?

anymore, Margaret.

Jodi Platypus: Here Margaret, I'll play with you.

Margaret Tiger: Gah!

Daniel Tiger: I said I don't want

to play anymore, Margaret.

Margaret Tiger: Gah.

(Margaret pokes Daniel)

Daniel Tiger: Hey! Margaret, don't poke me.

Margaret Tiger: Dan Dan! Dan Dan!

Jodi Platypus: Stop, Margaret.

(Margaret pokes Jodi)

I don't want you to poke me!

Mom Tiger: Oh, you seem mad, Jodi.

Jodi Platypus: I am mad!

Daniel Tiger: It helps to say you're mad.

Do you remember what

to do when you feel mad?

(Jodi calms down once again)

Daniel Tiger: How do you feel?

Jodi Platypus: Better.

Daniel Tiger: OK, how can me and my mom help?

Jodi Platypus: I didn't like

Margaret poking me or Daniel.

Mom Tiger: I understand. Margaret

was trying to play...

(Margaret whining)

Mom Tiger: ....but maybe she just needs something else to play with.

Jodi Platypus: Maybe she can play with Pandy and Benji.

(Daniel gives Pandy to Margaret)

Daniel Tiger: Here, Margaret. It's Pandy!

(Jodi also gives Margaret Benji)

Jodi Platypus: And here's Benji, and also just make sure to give

him back to me.

I see Trolley and Tigey...

but no picture! Oh, no.

I must have lost it!

Jodi Platypus: Yes, I know you see it fell off Trolley at the dinosaur park,

and a man known as Kylo Ren picked it up.

Daniel Tiger: Grandpere, I really wanted

to give you my picture.

It was of you and me.

I know you're sad

about losing the picture,

but maybe there's something

else you can give me.
