[Corduroy and Rosetta gets the radio out of Lisa's bed]

Rosetta:
Voila! I told you there was a radio under there.

Corduroy:
Was it hiding, Rosetta?

Rosetta:
Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Lisa must have forgotten it. But now we have found it, alors. [turns her back and then tries to turn on the radio] Oh. Oh! [shakes her head] Ahem. Corduroy? A winding, if you please.

[Corduroy picks up Rosetta and winds her up turning her wind up key. He puts Rosetta down --after winding up her key-- and Rosetta pushes a button on the radio and the orchestra music plays. Now Corduroy and Rosetta are dancing to the music. They are acting like dancers]

Corduroy:
[while dancing to the music] This must be a concert. I've always wanted to go to a concert.

[In Corduroy's imagination, Corduroy imagines that he and Rosetta are the music conductors. And Corduroy gives the orchestra band some wonderful music. A lady plays a tuba, Seven men plays the bass, A women and her husband plays the flute and a brown man plays the trumpet. Corduroy keeps playing some wonderful music. Back in reality, Lisa comes home and turns off the radio causing Corduroy and Rosetta to stop dancing]

Corduroy:
[finds out why Lisa turns off the music] Why has the music stopped?

Rosetta:
Lisa, you turned off the radio.

Lisa:
There's much better music to listen to.

Corduroy:
[points to the radio that played the song which he and Rosetta were dancing to and says to Lisa that he and Rosetta like that music] But I like that music!

Lisa:
No, this music is much better, Corduroy. Trust me. [turns on her other radio but makes jazzy music] Ew! [changes the radio channel but makes country music this time] Ew, yuck! [one radio channel has piano music] Uh-uh. [founds a radio channel that has dance music] There, that's more like it. [shakes her head]

Corduroy:
But why do we have to like only one kind of music?

Rosetta:
[about the same music Lisa likes] You mean: "Why do we have to likes only the same music Lisa likes?".

Lisa:
That's not true. [to Corduroy and Rosetta] Oh, go ahead. [gives Corduroy and Rosetta the radio] Listen to what you want.
