Squiggle Darling and Lobsterella: A Children's Cartoon Show

Here is the pilot script for Squiggle Darling and Lobsterella: A Children's Cartoon Show. Enjoy.

Establishing Shot: A yellow house is perched atop a green hill. A Cheerful tune plays. We see Squiggle Darling approach the house and enter the door.

Cut to: House interior. Lobsterella lays in the middle living room and is rendered as a realistic lobster. Squiggle Darling enters stage left and removes her backpack.

Squiggle Darling (visibly upset): I'm home from school.

Lobsterella (suddenly animated): I'm knitting!

Squiggle Darling (excited): Let explore!

Lobsterella: Ok!

Lobsterella does a loop-d-loop and flies to the door on stage right. She opens the door to reveal yet another door behind it.

Lobsterella: A door behind a door!

Squiggle Darling: Alllllllriiiight!

Squiggle Darling leaps into the door and is absorbed by it. Lobsterella follows behind.

Dissolve to: View of particles at sub-atomic level. Squiggle darling floats around and is seemingly amused. She is dancing.

Lobsterella pops into existence wearing a sombrero and tiny ankle boots.

Lobsterella: Where are we?

Squiggle Darling: A vacuum!

Lobsterella: Acoustic!

Camera Pans and zooms into an neutron to reveal a tiny kingdom. A king is hanging out of the window of the castle. The king is too large to fit in the castle.

King (yelling): Heeeeeeeelp!

Camera pan's back to Squiggle Darling and Lobsterella. As the camera pans the voice becomes higher and higher pitched.

Squiggle Darling (spoken while applying fresh coat of lipstick): We have to help them!

Squiggle Darling smacks her lips together and floats down to the neutron.

Lobsterella: Samba De Ion!

Cut To: Window on Castle. The over sized King sits inside the room. Squiggle Darling and Lobsterella float down and softly land on the window sill. They are several times smaller then the over sized king.

Squiggle Darling: What seems to be the matter Over Sized Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing?

While pronouncing the elongated king Squiggle Darlings mouth enlarges so much that a new head appears, also pronouncing the elongated king. The old head disappears off screen.

Over Sized King: My one and only daughter has been kidnapped! She has been taken to one of the two down quarks on this neutron!

Lobsterella: Le petite Tragedy!

Squiggle Darling (while slowly spinning with arms out): Oh brave king! What does your daughter look like?

Over Sized King: Like so.

The over sized king opens his mouth and the camera zooms in to his uvula, which is actually the princesses face. Two electrons orbit his uvula. The princess closes her eyes and sings a lovely song. The camera zooms further into one of those electrons to reveal the very same castle and zooms further still until we see the over sized king and Squiggle Darling on the window sill.

Squiggle Darling: Lets save some princess!

Squiggle darling mounts Lobsterella like a horse and they both fly off leaving a trail of rainbows behind them. The camera zooms out revealing 2 quarks and a wine cork. One quark is blue with an arrow facing up. The other is black with an arrow facing down. They fly to the wine cork.

Cut to: Cork landscape. Corkscrews and wine bottles create the foliage. The sun is a giant grape. Squiggle Darling and Lobsterella crash onto the surface. Lobsterella tumbles several times but remains smiling. Squiggle Darling floats down and lands slowly.

Squiggle Darling: Oof!

Lobsterella: Are you frogs?

Camera pans down to reveal a group of frogs.

Squiggle Darling: I love frogs!

Squiggle Darling does a slow motion somersault as a sound effect plays of a video game level up. Squiggle Darling trows one fist into the air in victory as another video game sound effect plays.

Squiggle Darling (to camera): Now you can somersault too!

CnH2n+1OH: Halt! Who goes there!

Squiggle Darling: We do!

Squiggle Darling cocks Lobsterella like a gun and lobsterella shoots a light waves from it's mouth. The color shifts from blue to red until it appears as a wave.

CnH2n+1OH: Oh!

Squiggle Darling (stamping her feet): Take me to the princess riiiiiiiiiiiiii-

While Squiggle Darling is pronouncing the elongated "right" Lobsterella flies over to CnH2n+1OH and unzips his costume revealing the princess.

Lobsterella: Look!

Squiggle Darling: -iiiiiiight Now!

Princess (falling to her knees): Please I only wanted to-

Squiggle Darling: Too late!

A net from off screen surrounds the princess. Squiggle Darling and Lobsterella High Five and drag the princess back to the castle, giggling.

Cut to: Castle Window Sill. The over sized king is playing connect four against a crow. Squiggle Darling and Lobsterella arrive knocking the connect four game off the window sill. The princess is in tow.

Over Sized King (surprised): My lovely daughter!

Squiggle Darling: It turns out it wasn't your daughter at all! It was the princess!

Over Sized King: Gasp!

While the king gasps the princess is quickly sucked into his mouth.

Cut to: Inside of the kings mouth. The princess spins and floats closer to the uvula that bares her resemblance. She leans in to kiss the uvula as the screen grows brighter. a pure white heart grows out of the space between their lips and fills the whole screen. Also: there are angels everywhere.

Fade to: Inside of the yellow house. Squiggle Darling is ejected from the door behind the door. She rolls on the ground. Lobsterella is ejected in her inanimate state and clacks to the ground as if she were wooden. Squiggle Darling's mother enters through the door on the left.

Mother: Oh darling! I didn't realize you were home from school already!

Squiggle Darling's mother picks up Squiggle Darling and holds her like a baby.

Mother: What did you do while Mommy was away?

Squiggle Darling: We saved the princess who lives in the door but she wasn't a princess at all she was just some dude's dog-

A portal through time and space appears and the REAL Squiggle Darling jumps out.

Squiggle Darling: The REAL Squiggle Darling: STOP! She's the IMPOSTOR! She came from five minutes in the future to foil our plan! Roundhouse Kick!

The REAL Squiggle Darling roundhouse kicks THE IMPOSTOR and THE IMPOSTOR disappears into a puff of smoke.

Mother: Oh Darling!

Zoom to: Close up of Squiggle Darling's face.

Squiggle Darling: Not you too!

Cut to: credits.
