Mr. Clever's Daft Bet


 * Narrator: Little Miss Fun, Mr. Jelly and Mr. Clever are sitting on the terrace of their holiday Chalet.
 * Mr. Clever: Ah! This is the life!
 * Little Miss Fun: I have an idea! Let's spend the night in the tent.
 * Mr. Clever: I don't think that's for me, my bet you see. But Mr. Jelly would love to, I'm sure.
 * Mr. Jelly: [Babbling] No way! Not an idea! Never in my life!
 * Little Miss Fun: It's so wonderful sleeping under the stars, Mr. Jelly. [Blinks and encourages him] Go on.
 * Mr. Clever: See Mr. Jelly? You were just afraid to ask.
 * Mr. Jelly: But the mountains are full of danger.
 * Mr. Clever: Go on, Mr. Jelly. You're not afraid of anything.
 * Little Miss Fun: Come on, Mr. Jelly. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
 * Mr. Jelly: Exactly. Didn't you hear what happened to Mr. Bump who risked his life [Starts sweating] parachuting from a plane? Well, let me tell you...


 * [A flashback plays. Mr. Bump, holding a parachute bag, trips and collides to the side of Mr. Brave's plane. Mr. Brave throws him onto the plane's back seat. The plane boots up and the propeller starts rotating. The plane takes off to the sky. Mr. Bump jumps off the plane from mid-air. Falling, he tries opening the parachute but fails. He starts sweating. Mr. Brave watches Mr. Bump and gasps. He quickly swoops the plane down and rescues Mr. Bump, who lands on the back seat.]


 * Mr. Jelly: Ooh... What a fright! Look, I got goosebumps!
 * Mr. Clever: I'll make you a bet. If you two sleep in the tent all night, I'd make a parachute jump tomorrow.
 * Little Miss Fun: What a good idea! We accept your bet!
 * Mr. Jelly: No, No. It's not a good idea at all.
 * Little Miss Fun: Count on me, Mr. Jelly. I'm as reliable as Mr. Brave.
 * Mr. Jelly: What?
 * Little Miss Fun: Come on. [Drags him off his seat.] Let's put up the tent. Tomorrow, Mr. Clever, you're going parachute jumping. You have my word.
 * Mr. Clever: [Nervously] Oh, no. What have I done? I can't jump out of a plane. I must find a way to make them come back inside.


 * [Whilst Little Miss Fun and Mr. Jelly set up the tent, Mr. Clever walks in.]
 * Mr. Jelly: Oh... It's cold!
 * Little Miss Fun: No. We've got such warm sleeping bags.
 * Mr. Clever: The nights are long, you know.
 * Mr. Jelly: Oh yes, you're right. They are long. Brr...
 * Little Miss Fun: We like that, don't we Mr. Jelly? We love long nights don't we?
 * Mr. Clever: [Fed up] Now that's enough pretending. You have perfectly good bedrooms in the Chalet. I mean, out here you'll be cold. [Starts smiling] You'll be afraid! [Brings his arms out and moves his fingers like a ghost.]
 * Little Miss Fun: Off to bed will you, Mr. Clever. [She guides him to the Chalet] It's getting late.
 * [As soon as Mr. Jelly follows, she takes him inside the tent and closes the zip.]


 * [Scary music plays. Late at night, Mr. Clever is hiding under a cape and making ghost noises. He approaches the tent.]
 * Mr. Clever: [Spooky voice] I am the ghost of the mountain!
 * Mr. Jelly: Help! Help! Oh no! A ghost!
 * [Inside the tent, Little Miss Fun pushes him back to bed.]
 * Little Miss Fun: Back to bed, Mr. Clever!
 * [Mr. Clever gets surprised. He furiously takes off his cape and makes howling noises.]
 * Mr. Jelly: A wolf! Oh no-o-o-o!
 * Little Miss Fun: [Laughs and pats Mr. Clever's foot] Hardly a wolf. Now do go and get some rest, Mr. Clever. Don't forget you're parachute jumping tomorrow.
 * [Mr. Clever moves back to his bedroom in the Chalet, takes off his hat and goes to sleep.]


 * [In Mr. Clever's dream, he and Little Miss Fun - who is the pilot and wearing goggles - are on the plane. It swoops around the sky and rolls upside-down, releasing Mr. Clever. He tries opening up the parachute but fails. He starts sweating as he falls closer to the ground.]


 * [Out of his dream, dramatic music plays, and sweat comes raining down his face. The mountain shakes. Mr. Jelly hears the shakes and wakes up.]
 * Mr. Jelly: What was that? Oohh... Thunder! It's a storm!
 * Little Miss Fun: That's only Mr. Clever who's scared out of his wits. Now do go to sleep.


 * Mr. Jelly: Little Miss Fun. Now I can't hear anything!
 * Little Miss Fun: That's because Mr. Clever has gone to bed! Now go to sleep!
 * [Mr. Jelly goes to sleep, but wakes up immediately]
 * Mr. Jelly: [Screaming in pain] There's a spider in my sleeping bag! It's biting me. [He jumps up and down on the sleeping bag.] What's happening?! Heeeelp!
 * [The tent gives way and collapses.]
 * Litle Miss Fun: [Angrily] That was clever. [Normally] Now, what about our bed? We were supposed to sleep in the tent all night.


 * [In the Chalet, the sun rises through the window. Mr. Clever is sleeping backwards on his bed. He wakes up.]
 * Mr. Clever: Morning already?
 * [He gets out of bed and looks through his window. He discovers that the tent isn't outside, and is relieved.]
 * Mr. Clever: What luck. They didn't sleep in the tent after all. [Gets excited] I won the bet. I won the bet! I won the bet!
 * [He puts his hat on and closes his bedroom door. He opens the door to the another bedroom...]
 * Mr. Clever: [Happily] Good... [Gasps nervously] morning.
 * [...only to find out there's no one in bed. He opens the door to the next bedroom, but nobody is in that bed either.]
 * Mr. Clever: [Happily] Good... [Nervously] Oh...
 * [Mr. Clever runs to the front of the Chalet at the top of a stairway. He screams to his horror that the tent is there at the bottom of the stairway. Little Miss Fun and Mr. Jelly come out and greet him.]
 * Litle Miss Fun: Ready for your parachute jump, Mr. Clever?!
 * [They laugh. The screen fades to black and the credits roll.]
