Scene: Living room of the Toy Store. Axel and Uncle Andrew are playing a game of chess.
Axel: And checkmate! One game each, so now, tie breaker! Ready, Uncle Andrew?
Uncle Andrew: Oh! Is that the time? I'm afraid our game will have to wait till later, Axel.
Axel: Wait? This can't wait! The tie!
(Uncle Andrew gets up from the chair and walks to the kitchen to grab a mirror)
Uncle Andrew: i have an interview at the city park in ten minutes! (He looks at his reflection in the mirror) TV crew and everything!
Axel: TV? Cool! What for?
Uncle Andrew: The local news is doing a segment on the town's greatest toy inventor! And you're looking at him! Pretty nifty, huh? Heh, heh!
(Unbeknownst to Axel and his uncle, there's a drone spying on them from Axel's room)
Scene: Axel's room. Galileo is watching the security footage from the drone.
Galileo: An interview? On television? (gasps) It's my moment!
(Nearby, Masko is cleaning the monitor with a toothbrush)
Masko: You want to crash the Andrew's interview?
(Galileo rushes to where Masko is and grabs his cheeks)
Galileo: Masko! This is my chance to finally get on the Junior Genetic Spy Lizards TV show! (He rushes to his terrarium and stands in front of a picture that is taped on the glass) Once I show off my acting talent on the small screen, they'll beg to add me to their line-up! Ha, ha, ha!
(Outside, Madcap's drone is spying on the Power Players and eavesdrops on Andrew's conversation with Axel from the monitor)
Scene: Madcap's lair. Madcap and Porcupunk are watching from the drone.
Uncle Andrew: (from recording) It's been so long since I've been on TV, I'm a little bit nervous!
Madcap: Television? This is it, Porcupunk! A chance for the world to see Uncle Andrew's greatest creation... me.
Porcupunk: But, Madcap, what if he don't mention you? Just sayin'. The man's a bit daffy, isn't he? Might slip his mind.
(Madcap angrily grabs Porcupunk and tosses him aside, making him hit into the ceiling of the lair)
Madcap: Don't get your prickles in a twist, Porcupunk. (He walks to the vent) I'll make sure Andrew remembers.
Scene: Andrew's workshop. Andrew is about to leave the house.
Axel: Are you gonna be famous?
Uncle Andrew: Gonna be famous? I didn't invent toys to get famous. I did it because I love inventing. I'd better get going or I'll have to invent an excuse for being so late. Wish me luck!
(Andrew leaves the house)
Axel: Wow, TV! Wait till I tell the team.
Scene: Axel's room. Masko is holding onto Galileo to prevent him from foolishly leaving the room.
Galileo: Let me go! I'll miss my call time! Let me go, Masko!
(Axel opens the bedroom door and arrives)
Axel: Guys!
Slobot: Not advisable.
Axel: What's up?
Masko: Galileo trying to go do the acting show and be on TV!
Galileo: Don't hold me back! It's just Shakespeare in the park!
Bearbarian: Who is this mighty shaker of spears you speak of?
Galileo: (groans) Only the single greatest playwright of all time. And I'm going to keep his genius alive on camera through my genius!
Axel: Camera? Wait. You know about Uncle Andrew's interview?
Galileo: I'm a spy lizard! Of course I know! Just think of the exposure! I have to follow my bliss!
Axel: Galileo, if other people find out about you it's game over!
(Galileo shrugs before he camouflages himself and gets away)
Masko: He go the camouflage!
Bobbie Blobby: He's getting away!
(Galileo escapes from the window)
Axel: No!
(Sarge Charge enters the room)
Sarge Charge: Operation Curtain Call! The lizard's gone rouge!
Axel: Hold up. I don't wanna hurt his feelings. It's important to him. Maybe if we offer to help, we can keep an eye on him and make sure he stays away from the camera.
Masko: The acting? I love!
Bobbie Blobby: Beats sports.
Bearbarian: Huh! Bearbarian is no court jester.
(Sarge gets onto the table where Bearbarian is)
Sarge Charge: Acting takes discipline, focus, courage! If you can't hack that, then you're no warrior at all!
Bearbarian: Oh!
Axel: Wow, Sarge. Dramatic!
Sarge Charge: Always had a soft spot for theater.
Axel: Well, that settles it.
Scene: Park. Andrew arrives where a TV crew is waiting for him.
Uncle Andrew: Hello! I'm Andrew! I'm very nervous!
(Meanwhile, at the playground, Galileo is spying on the three humans from a slide)
Action Axel: Psst, Galileo!
Uncle Andrew: I mean, excited.
(Galileo turns around and sees his teammates right behind him)
Galileo: Now now! I'm prepping! This is my big break!
Action Axel: How can you put on a play without a cast? Aren't you doing Shakespeare?
Galileo: I was hoping to do Hamlet
Bearbarian: Sounds like a weakling.
Galileo: Hamlet? He's a brave young prince, haunted by ghosts, bound to solve a mystery and honor his family.
Masko: Ooh! The spooky! I like!
Action Axel: We're in! But we still have to rehearse, right? Otherwise you might mess up on camera.
(Galileo gasps. He turns around and sees that Andrew is about to be interview)
Galileo: You have a point.
Action Axel: Glad you agree! To the set!
Galileo: There's a set?
Action Axel: Oh, yeah! (He pulls Galileo away off the slide and into the center of the playground. Bobbie is firing out clays from her mecha-suit to build a castle stage set) Bobbie's building it!
Galileo: Oh!
(Meanwhile, Madcap is on top of a tree and is spying on Andrew)
Madcap: As soon as the camera rolls, I'll strike. (He notices a red dot blinking at the playground from his binocular) Huh? (He looks at the red dot and sees that the Power Players are all there. He groans) And I can deal with them while I wait.
(At the playground, the Power Players are rehearsing a scene from Hamlet. Slobot is reading his script)
Slobot: "The king that's dead, speak to it, Horatio."
Galileo: Yuk! Um… Keep practicing. It needs... more.
Slobot: More what? It is my only line.
Galileo: Just more. It's not how many lines, Slobot, it's how you deliver them. Onward!
(Galileo walks away. Behind Slobot, Bearbarian frustratedly tosses away his script)
Slobot: "The king that's dead, speak to it, Horatio."
(Galileo walks to where Bobbie is)
Galileo: Bobbie, how's my set coming along?
Bobbie Blobby: "Your" set?
(Galileo sees that Bobbie has only built a small castle set)
Galileo: Uh… That's all you have?
Bobbie Blobby: Can't rush art. Now, the moat!
(Galileo groans)
Galileo: We'll make do.
(Galileo walks away. Nearby, Masko and Bearbarian are trying to read the script)
Masko: Is fun to play the creepy ghosts, yes?
Bearbarian: Ghosts? I thought we were guards.
(Galileo walks to the two toys)
Galileo: How will you remember your lines if you can't remember who you're playing? Rosencrantz and Guildenstern!
(Sarge walks to where they are)
Sarge Charge: Stand down! We've only had these parts since 0900.
(Behind the Power Players, Madcap angrily arrives through Bobbie's castle set and bursts the door open)
Madcap: Trying to steal my spotlight? That's not playing fair.
Action Axel: Madcap!
Bearbarian: By Korm!
Bobbie Blobby: I worked hard on that door!
(Bobbie creates World Breaker out of clay and charges to Madcap so she could strike him. But Madcap grabs her by her mecha-suit and tosses her aside. Action Axel kick-punches Madcap away from the castle set and the two start their fight. Madcap fires a Minergy blast at Action Axel, but he flies up and dodges it just in time. Madcap grabs Action Axel with his tentacles)
Action Axel: Whoa!
(Madcap slams Action Axel to the ground and pins him down)
Madcap: If any toy is going to be on TV, it's me!
(Action Axel's teammates all get back onto their feet)
Galileo: Makeup!
Action Axel: Ha! You? Alone. Why would a TV crew care about that? We're doing a whole show.
Madcap: No one cares about your silly play!
Action Axel: You mean Shakespeare in the park performed by living toys? Um. We win, you lose. Unless, you take a part.
Galileo: What?
Madcap: You'd… let me be in this play?
Action Axel: Normally, no. Today, we're short one actor, so everybody wins.
(Madcap laughs evilly and he lets go of Action Axel)
Madcap: I'll do it. But only if I could play the lead role.
Galileo: Ahem! I'm playing Hamlet. I've already learned all the lines.
Madcap: Who beats this Hamlet guy?
Galileo: Technically, Laertes, but it's way more complicated--
(Madcap swipes the script from Galileo's hand)
Madcap: I am Laertes! (He mutters quietly while reading his lines) Exterior…
(Action Axel walks to where Galileo is)
Action Axel: Gal, you're the hero. Distracting Madcap is a heroic thing to do, if you can play the role.
Galileo: If? Places, everyone! And…
(Meanwhile, Andrew's interview has begun)
Cameraman: And… action!
Reporter: You specifically chose the park for today's interview instead of your shop. What's special about this place?
Uncle Andrew: Whenever I'm feeling stuck, a little fresh air always helps me be creative again. I've had a lot of big ideas in this park.
(Back at the playground, the Power Players are about to start their play)
Galileo: Action! Bobbie! Now! Now!
Bobbie Blobby: Don't rush me.
(Bobbie plugs in the spotlight and it shines down to Bearbarian, who is shaking very nervously because of stage fright)
Bearbarian: Um… Line? (Galileo points at the script to him. Bearbarian pulls out his script from his pocket) "As thou art to thyself, such was the very armor he had on…"
(Sarge appears on-stage, wearing a clay wig and a clay skirt. He is also holding a clay fan)
Sarge Charge: (in a high-pitched voice) "Get thee to a nunnery!"
Bearbarian: What?
Sarge Charge: (in his normal voice) I think that's my line.
Galileo: Wrong scene! Get off the stage! (Bobbie can't help but laugh hysterically over Sarge's costume. But she creates a clay lasso and pulls him away from the stage. Galileo takes his place) "Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio! A fellow of infinite jest!"
(Back to Andrew's interview)
Uncle Andrew: No kidding! The power of imagination and curiosity is endless! Everyone has a whole world of ideas to tap into right in here.
(Back at the play, Galileo is currently holding onto Slobot's detached head)
Slobot: "The king that's dead--"
Galileo: Not now! "To be or not to be that--"
Slobot: "The king that's dead."
Galileo: Not now! Oh! "To be or--" (Madcap fires a Minergy blast near them, causing Galileo to drop Slobot's head) Aaah!
Madcap: How about "not to be"? "I'm here to avenge my sister, Ophelia!"
(Madcap pulls out various prop swords that he's holding by his tentacles)
Sarge Charge: Oh, that's my cue! (He puts on his clay wig and gets on-stage. He speaks in a high-pitched voice again) "Oh, oh, oh!"
(Sarge faints on-stage, causing Action Axel and Bobbie to both laughs in amusement)
Bobbie Blobby: So bad it's good.
Galileo: I, in me… uh… ah!
(Galileo notices that Andrew has just finished his interview and the TV crew are leaving)
Reporter: Well, that should do it.
Uncle Andrew: Wait. What?
Reporter: I'll call if I have any more questions!
Galileo: What? Finished? No! (He gets off the stage and runs to follow the TV crew) Out of my way, miscreant! Fame and glory await!
(Madcap grabs Galileo's leg and throws him back onto the stage)
Madcap: Yes, just not for you! Aside!
(Madcap runs after the TV crew. Galileo, in a fit of rage, grabs a prop spear and follows him)
Action Axel: Madcap! No!
(Galileo appears in front of Madcap)
Galileo: Prepare to be Shake-speared!
(Galileo and Madcap both start fighting each other)
Madcap: Not bad, for an actor.
Galileo: An about-to-be world-famous actor! En garde! (Madcap uses his tentacle and knocks Galileo aside) Whoa! (He crashes into the stage set)
Bobbie Blobby: Hey! I spent a lot of time on that third wall! Or was that the fourth wall?
(Bobbie looks at the audience and winks at them. Galileo appears out of the rubbish and charges towards Madcap)
Action Axel: Galileo, we're supposed to be distracting Madcap!
(Galileo knocks Madcap down)
Galileo: Ah, yes, life imitating art!
Madcap: Grr!
(Madcap and Galileo both resume their fighting. Masko watches the fight from afar before he looks down at his script)
Masko: This not look like the acting now.
(Action Axel pulls out his Power Sword)
Action Axel: Our leading lizard needs a supporting cast. Curtain! (Bobbie fires clay at Madcap, getting his attention. He turns around and sees the Power Players all charging towards him) On three! (They all jump up, ready to strike Madcap) Three!
(Madcap fires a blast at the Power Players)
Madcap: Show's over, brat! (He's about to fire Action Axel)
Galileo: No! I haven't said all my lines! (He resumes his fight with Madcap) Though this be madness, yet this is method in it.
Action Axel: Galileo, snap out of it!
Galileo: I can't! (He strikes Madcap down with his prop spear) I won't! Not until I've tasted fame!
Action Axel: You don't act to get famous, you do it because you love acting! Who cares who sees your play if you had fun doing it?
(Galileo sighs and he drops his prop spear)
Galileo: It was fun, wasn't it? (Madcap grabs him with his tentacle) Aaah! Whoa!
(Madcap tosses Galileo off of him)
Madcap: Wait. Where is the camera? Where is my TV? You've ruined my chance! Now it's--
(Bearbarian charges to Madcap, ready to strike him)
Bearbarian: Curtain's call!
(Bearbarian knocks Madcap away with his World Breaker, sending him flying away from the park)
Madcap: Aaah!
(The Power Players all applaud Bearbarian)
Galileo: Cast, it was a bumpy dress rehearsal, but I'm sure we'll do better tomorrow.
Action Axel, Bobbie Blobby, Bearbarian, Masko, and Sarge Charge: Tomorrow?!
Bearbarian: I cannot wait.
Masko: To be or not the being, that is questions.
(The Power Players all leave the park, forgetting about Slobot who is still there. Slobot's body is searching for his head)
Slobot: "The king that's dead, speak to it, Horatio!" Nailed it.
