Angelina Ballerina: The Next Steps, Series 3 (Jan. 23, 2010-Apr. 3, 2010)

[Angelina gets an idea of a nature dance without any little sisters around. Earlier, in the bumblebee dance, Polly --who wanted to be a bumblebee like Angelina and the big girls-- showed up and tried to tag along with Angelina. And she pretended to be a bee.]

Angelina:
[to Vicki, Alice, and Gracie] I have the most stupendous idea where we can go.

[Angelina and the other girls --Vicki, Alice, and Gracie-- exit down the stairs and off to the park.]

Angelina:
Lots of nature. And no little sisters.

[The scene cuts to Polly and Mrs. Mouseling. Polly snuggles onto her mom's lap and cries. Polly is crying because she does not ever get to spend time with Angelina and her friends. Angelina was nasty to her when Polly herself was trying to be a bumblebee with Angelina, Vicki, Alice, and Gracie. Polly was tagging along when Angelina and her friends were doing the bumblebee dance. And she wanted to be a bee with Angelina and the other big girls. Tears roll down Polly's cheeks, and Polly --because she never gets to spend time with Angelina and the big girls-- cries.]

Polly:
[in between tears] That's not fair. I wanted to stay and be a bee with all the big girls.

[Polly --after saying this-- resumes crying. Mrs. Mouseling comforts Polly. She hugs Polly on her lap after Angelina had made her cry. And Mrs. Mouseling, she says to Polly...!]

Mrs. Mouseling:
[to Polly] I know dear.

[Mrs. Mouseling --with Polly on her lap-- hugs Polly.]

Mrs. Mouseling:
[continues to Polly] But you will be a big girl one day.

[Polly stops crying. It is not long until Angelina has asked her mom about doing a nature dance at the park.]

Angelina:
Mom? Can we bring a snack?

Gracie:
To take out to the park?

Alice:
We need to get lots of ideas from nature.

Mrs. Mouseling:
[giggles] I do not see why not.

[Polly has just heard about going to the park. Then she asks Angelina if she can come.]

Polly:
Hooray!

[Polly invites herself over.]

Polly:
[to Angelina] May I come?

[Angelina thinks sadly and sighs. In a concerned expression, she tries to think whether she should let Polly join her and her friends Alice, Vicki, and Gracie at the park for nature dances. However, she really wants it to not happen because she left out Polly when Polly wanted to be a bumblebee like the big girls. It seems that Angelina is unsure of whether or not Polly should join.]

Polly:
[asks Angelina again] Pretty please with cheese?

[After Polly's "cry" and complaint about her always being left out on spending time with Angelina and the other big girls, Mrs. Mouseling turns to Angelina.]

Mrs. Mouseling:
[tells Angelina to be a good big sister and invite her little sister Polly] Please, Angelina. Please be a good big sister now.

[Angelina sighs again upon hearing this from Mrs. Mouseling-- to "be a good big sister" and let Polly come. Polly was crying because she never gets to spend time with Angelina and the other big girls. So as a result, after Angelina's mother tells Angelina to be a good big sister on Polly, Polly gets to join. Then the scene cuts to the park. Polly has invited herself along to the park with Angelina and her friends. And what's more, since Mrs. Mouseling told Angelina to "be a good big sister" and let Polly come, Angelina is forced to take Polly along on the collaboration with her friends.]

Polly:
[mimics a bumblebee again] Bzz! Bzz! Bzz! Bzz! Bzzzz!

[The scene goes to Angelina and Gracie --who are taking a picnic basket with after school snacks inside-- and Angelina turns to Polly and looks at her who is still acting like a bumblebee.]

Angelina:
[annoyed and to Polly who is still pretending to be a bee] Okay, relax Polly! We are not being bees anymore!

[As a result, Angelina thinks it is bad enough that Polly was being a bumblebee when she and the other girls were doing the "Flight of the Bumblebee" dance for nature dances and has to deal with it. But now, she is forced to take Polly along on the collaboration with her friends for other nature dances --which is to the park-- after Polly invited herself. And she has to deal with that too.]
