1. EXT PARK -- DAY Open on Senor Tapir, with his guitar, in the park of Animal Town, sitting on a tree stump at the edge of a pond. A group of kids sit at his feet, including Elinor and Sally Beaver. SENOR TAPIR WHO WANTS TO HEAR A SONG? Kids We do! We do! SENOR TAPIR Today we are going to sing a song about an EXPLORER. Do you know what an explorer does? Elinor’s hand shoots up. She doesn’t wait to be called on. ELINOR An explorer follows their curiosity! SALLY BEAVER An explorer is brave. SENOR TAPIR You’re both right! Explorers are brave and their curiosity can lead them to lots of very INTERESTING places, like deep into the ocean. ELINOR We have an explorer’s club! SENOR TAPIR Then I think you’ll like this song! Tapir starts to strum his guitar and sings. After a line or two, we transition to a simpler style of animation that describes what he is singing. SENOR TAPIR (CONT’D) When something you see, Tickles your curiosity When you have to know more And questions pull you out the door Let’s go! Let’s Explore! 2. EXT OCEAN -- DAY We see a young Jacques Cousteau preparing to dive. SENOR TAPIR (CONT’D) There was a young man named Jacques Cousteau , Who wanted to know what nobody knows Young Jacques loved to swim in the sea So he followed his curiosity. Jacques dives in! He swims down but soon runs out of air. He wondered if anything lived far below But that’s a place that’s hard to go Wading on the surface, he has an idea! So he had an idea to breathe under the water So he could explore deeper and farther We see Jacques again on his boat, this time with his prototype scuba gear, diving into the water. Jacques found all sorts of life way down deep! Fish and plants and coral reefs. Jacques sees some cool underwater life. Under the water, among fishes and plants, he takes out his film camera. He became an explorer, and swam under the sea Even more important he shared what he saw with you and me, When something you see, Tickles your curiosity When you have to know more And questions pull you out the door Let’s go! Let’s Explore! 3. EXT PARK -- DAY Kids “That was great” / “We want another song” SENOR TAPIR That last song made me want to go swimming! Adios, and until next time, amigos ! Tapir tosses his guitar on the grass and dives under the water.
