Lovely Little Farm (2022–…): Season 2, Episode 3 - Dragon Babies - full transcript

Al and Pickle need a break, so Jill babysits the dragons for them. But she quickly discovers it's more work than she thought.

Let's go down the open road
Here we go

Hanging with all the friends
That I know

On and on and on and on we go
Party down like animals

You got the love, you don't let it go

On and on until we lose control
Party down like animals

Oh, oh, animals

How about calling our baby dragons
Chompy and Chewy?

Maybe. Or Huff and Puff.

Nearly, Al. But not quite right.

Sun's up, Pickle.

Time for our breakfast graze.



Or is it sundown?
Time for our dinner graze?

I'm not sure.

With all this baby caring,

we don't know
whether it's morning or afternoon.

Afternoon, muddy buds!

-Afternoon.
-Afternoon.

Your babies keeping you busy in here,
Pickle and Al?

No. Yes.

I'll help you tidy up.

Thanks, Farmer Jill.

We've not had time for tidying.

-And we've not had any time for grazing.
-Oh, dear.

No time.

Papa's right here, green baby.



Mama too, purple baby.

You haven't had time
to give them dragon forever names?

No.

I think you parents need a break.

Yes, like all new parents do.

Take it from a new mum. Me.

I need a break sometimes too.

I know. If I do dragon caring for you,

you can go outside
and graze for the rest of the day.

No. We can't leave our babies.

I'd really like to babysit them.
It's only while you're out grazing.

Sounds like a great idea to me,
Al and Pickle.

What do you say?

-Yes!
-Thank you, Jill.

I promise I won't disturb you parents
even once.

And you must promise
to trust your Farmer Jill

and not come back
to check on your babies either.

I'll try.

I'm trying harder.

I think I can do it.

Enjoy, Farmer Jill.

What's up, Al?

I think I should show you
how to care for the dragon babies

before I leave you
on your own with them, Jill.

See, our babies have
a special afternoon routine.

Their first activity is exercise,
then you need to feed them some snacks.

And finally, they need
their bedding changed before bed.

Exercise, feeding, change. Got it.

But if the babies won't follow
their routine, Jill,

you'll need that box to help you.

This box of stuff?

They like it.

Yes! Let me tell you
what all these things do.

No, Al.

I think I can work out
what these things do.

Go on and graze and relax, please.

If you're sure.

I think I can care for your sweet dragons.

Yeah.

You go and have the break you deserve.

But are you sure, Jill?

Yes. And no checking back
all afternoon, remember?

Thanks.

Yay! Time to graze.

I'm doing it.

You're certainly bouncy.

Oh, yeah! It's your exercise time.

Here we go.

Join in. Big bounces!

Good.

-Jill?
-Are you awake, Darling Donkey?

I am, Jill.

And ready for my farmer to visit me
as soon as she can.

Okay.

-Hi, Jill!
-Hi, Jacky.

I'm babysitting.
Well, more like baby-bouncing.

Can Tucker and I help?

No, thanks, Jacky.
I've got these two little dragons.

But you can help me with someone else.

Darling's ringing his bell
for me to go and visit him again.

Is Darling unhappy in his new home?

No, he loves his shed.
But he just won't leave it.

He needs to go out and make new friends…

not just me.

-Could you take Darling out to play?
-Yes.

That will help me out so much.

Come on, Tucker.

Let's go and take our special
donkey friend outside to play.

Thanks, Jacky!

You two really are bouncy!

Farmer Jill?

No.

Farmer Jill asked us
to come and visit you instead.

Hello.

Well, that's very lovely.

Who is "us"?

Me, Farmer Jacky, and my dog, Tucker.

Hello, dog.

Not too much sniffing
and scratching in here, please.

Good dog, Tucker.

You go and scratch and sniff outside.
We'll come too.

This way, lovely donkey.

Your new friends, Tucker and I,
are taking you outside

to play in the farmyard.

That sounds terrific, Jacky.

But no, thank you.

I'm having a quiet snooze in my shed now.

Tucker likes quiet snoozes too.

I'm just going to get Tucker's bed

so he can relax in here
just like he does in our farmhouse.

After your snooze,
then we'll go out to play.

No rush, Jacky.
Farmer Jill will be along soon, I'm sure.

Okay, you two sweeties. No more bouncing.

Let's do some wing exercises, yes?

Babies?

Come out and wing-wave like this.
Flap, flap.

Flap, flap.

Hey, Jill.

Your mum said
you were babysitting the dragons.

How is it?

Okay. We're doing exercises.

Well, I am.

The dragons don't want to do them.

Well, Joshy loves arm exercises.

Hey, Joshy?

They make your arms stronger.

Stretch up, Joshy.

A lot stronger.

Are you babies ready to make your wings
as strong as Baby Joshy's arms?

Let's try what Dad and Joshy do.

Stretch your wings up to me.

Good.

Now flap, flap. Wing-wave.

Beautiful.

Yes! You did it.

Great babysitting, Farmer Jill.

Thanks, Dad.

Again, babies.

You've had enough of wing-waving already?

Your wings will only get stronger
if you do more waving.

Maybe there's something
in Al's box that will help me.

Do you like these?

I have an idea for your wing exercises!

Darling is asleep!

You're both back. I was just snoozing.

You snoozed already?

Tucker? If your snooze can wait, Tucker,

I think Darling is all set
to come out and play with us now.

Ready, Darling?

No. Not ready.

I only like to go outside when it is warm.

Good idea, helpful Tucker pup!

Darling's blanket is just what he needs
to keep warm when we go outside.

Thanks, dog.

-Hey!
-No, Tucker!

Jacky, that's my blanket.
Jill gave it to me.

Sorry, Darling. I'll get it back for you!

One more time.

Wing-wave up.

Wing-wave down.

Good exercises, you two.

It's not how I exercise my chickens,
but it works on you two dragons.

Back to your routine.

Now, what did Al say was next on the list?

Right! Feeding. This will be easy.

All the things you dragons like to eat
are in this bucket.

How about a crunchy apple core
for you both to share?

I put it flat on my palm.
That's how my goats like to eat it.

No apple then.

How about some potato peel?

You won't eat that either?

Well, I know you always like celery!

No celery.

Are you two not hungry?

You are?

What am I doing wrong?

Okay. I have to think about
how to feed you differently,

because you don't want to be cared for
like my other baby animals, do you?

Do you want to go out to eat?

Here we go, babies.

We're going out of the barn
for your feeding time.

That's different.

Don't worry.

I'll push you carefully
over the bumpy bits.

I always give Baby Joshy
a smooth buggy ride.

You want me to push you differently too?

Hold on tight for a bumpy buggy ride!

Tucker, Darling wants his blanket back.

Please?

Hey, Jacky, look!

These happy little dragons love
a wobbly walk outside.

I wish Darling Donkey did.

But look!
Darling's coming outside right now.

Blanket please, Tucker?

Thank you, kind pup.

Tucker, come on.

Darling! You came out of your shed!

My blanket.

It's all crumpled and dusty
because of that dog.

Well, Tucker's given it back, Darling.

And I'm shaking all the dust out of it.

Here.

-Ready to play?
-No, I don't feel like playing now, Jacky.

I want Farmer Jill.

I see, Darling.

But if you change your mind,
we'll be playing by our chickens.

Come on, Tucker!
Just you and me for playtime.

Easy, driver.

Babies like a slow, smooth ride.

Not these babies, Dad.

They love everything to be done
differently to my other baby animals.

That's why we've come to the house
for their feed.

No barn animals in the house, Jill.
You know the rule.

Please, Dad?

I tried feeding them in the barn,
but they wouldn't let me.

-But they might let me in the farmhouse.
-Might.

If I'd listened to Al's advice,
I'd probably know what to do.

But now I have to work out
how to look after you all on my own.

Well, what would your mum say
if I let these two in?

Look at those two cuties
in the old wheelbarrow.

Has your babysitter brought you
to visit our farmhouse?

Okay, in you go.

Thanks, Mum!

Just one quick feed
before we change our minds.

Thanks, Dad!

Since it's dragon-feeding time,
let's make it Joshy's feeding time too.

Here, Joshy. Tasty milk.

Here, baby dragons. Tasty vegetables.

Dragon babies are much harder
to look after than I expected.

They won't eat in here either.

Well, do you wanna know
my tip for feeding babies?

Make it playful and fun.

Look! It's a tractor.

Now watch it plow the fields.

Up.

And down.

And up.

And at the end of the day, into its shed.

-See?
-I can do tractor feeding, Dad.

Ready to play, babies?

Here's a tractor plowing the field.
Up and down.

Up and down.

Up and down.

Back into its shed.

Tractor driving to you, little green one.

It worked! The dragons like feeding time
to be playful and fun too.

Dad, I think,
when babysitting our dragons,

being playful is the answer to everything.

I'm proud of you, Farmer Jill.

Hi, Darling.

Sorry. Is our game too noisy for you?

No. No, I like it.

I just came to say--

I just wanted to say,
I'm sorry I've been grumpy with you today.

That's okay, Darling.

I get it. You just don't want to play.

Well, the thing is, I do, Jacky.

But, you see, life on this farm is
all so new for an old donkey like me.

But, Darling,
this is a happy little farm to live on.

Run by two very caring
young farmers, right?

Yeah.

And Jill and I want you
to join in with all the fun.

Thank you.

Jacky, I sometimes stroll for fun.
Do you stroll?

Yes! Tucker and I call it walkies.

Walkies!

You, Tucker and me
could go walkies right now.

Walkies it is!
Three new farm friends together.

Come on, Tucker!

Off for a walk together?

Yes. We'll all be back later, Farmer Jill.

There.

Feeding done.

Now, the last thing on your routine is…
nest change.

I could change the straw
while you're in the nest.

That would be different and playful. Yes?

Let's play boats at sea.

Come on, babies. Your boat is sinking!
Take all the water out.

Nuzzle it out with your nose. That's it!

What about calling our babies
Snooze and Snore?

Al!

Do you think we should go back now?
We've been away all afternoon.

No.

We still need to pick forever names
for our huffity and puffity pair.

Wait. Did you just say
"huffity" and "puffity"?

So what if I said "huffity" and "puffity"?

I just said the best forever
dragon baby names, didn't I?

Yeah.

I want to see their little faces
when we call them by their new names.

-Huffity.
-Puffity.

-One last snacky to celebrate?
-More snacking first!

Empty out more straw. Good work!

There. That's it.

Of course. You need fresh straw.

New game!

Now it's snowing!

Your boat is filling up with fresh snow!

Catch it! This is fun!

There. Straw change done.

You did it yourselves, babies,
in your own playful little way.

All ready for a nap.

Jill!

Jill!

I'm back!

Me too!

In here, muddy buds.

Routine all done.

Exercising, feeding, change.

And they fell asleep.

So please don't wake them up.

Nothing wakes those baby dragons,
Farmer Jill.

Not till they're ready.

They're ready!

Say "thank you" to your babysitter,
Huffity and Puffity.

Green Huffity and Purple Puffity.
Those are perfect names!

For two perfect dragons.

Thanks for babysitting, Jill.

Huffity and Puffity have woken up happy.

But it turned out
I did need your advice, Al.

It took me ages to realize
that all these dragons want is play.

Yeah.

Get ready for the next thing
on their routine: more playtime.

I can do that.

Show me how you do it first.

You'll need stuff from my box. Like this!

Makes 'em laugh every time!

They love you, Jill.

I love you both too.

And your huffity, puffity kisses.

Jill?

Wanna come and help do Joshy's bedtime?

Where are you?

All that babysitting
has worn our Farmer Jill out.

Jill needs a break, like us.

A bit early for her bedtime.

Dad, I don't feel good.

I think I have a sore throat.

But… I helped Huffity and Puffity
settle into bed.

And Jacky got Darling out
and exploring with new friends.

Back to the farmhouse for supper,
Farmer Jill.

Night, Huffity and Puffity.

Huffity and Puffity, hey?

-Best dragon names.
-Best dragons.
