(A sparkle glitter transition to Dorothy & Wags are holding their ribbon to have a race, while The Wiggles are running through the ribbon & counting to the number four.)

(The Wiggles run through the race until they count to four.)

Greg: Two!
Murray: Three!
Jeff: Four!
Anthony: You can count on The Wiggles!
(Then, it translates to the song: I Climb Ten Stairs. Murray plays the red Takamine guitar.)
Greg: (singing) Now there's 10 steps that I must climb
And get up to my home.
Every day as I climb,
I count them as I go.
I count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6
7, 8, 9, 10.
The Other Wiggles: (singing) He counts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6

Is so much fun.
(An egg transition to chicken coop where we see four large eggs, laid by a chicken.)
Dorothy: (She's narrating offscreen.) Once upon a time, there were four eggs.
Greg: (He suddenly hatches out of the first large egg.) Quack, quack, quack.
Dorothy: (She's narrating offscreen.) Sorry. Once upon a time, there were three eggs, and... oh dear.
Anthony: (He too hatches out of the second large egg.) Quack, quack, quack!
Dorothy: (She narrating offscreen.) Once upon a time, there were two...
Murray: (Once more, this duckling also hatches out of a huge egg.) Quack, quack!
Dorothy: (She narrating rapidly offscreen.) Once upon a time, there was one egg and... (The Wiggles come back quacking, seeing the fourth final egg suddenly wobbling and shaking on its own, till Jeff hatches out of the huge egg. Then, she clears her throat.) Shall we finish the story? (They all continue quacking.) Once upon a time, there were four ducklings. They all hatched out of four big eggs laid by a small chicken. But, instead of being happy, they were sad. (They quack sadly.) They wanted to be four famous singers.
Wiggles: (They sang opera.) Quack, quack, quack. (They continue to quack.)
Dorothy: But no-one will listen to four singing ducks. (They keep quacking sadly.) Except Daddy Duck. He will listen to them sing.
Captain Feathersword: (He arrives quacking. He starts to quack rhythmically.) Quack, quack, quack, quack!
Wiggles: (singing) Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack-quack, quack-quack, quack-quack. Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack-quack, quack-quack, quack-quack...
Dorothy: (She's narrating offscreen.) And the four little ducklings quacked happily ever after.
(Duck transition as a CGI duck walks to the screen, quacks twice and lays a big egg. The egg hatches and it shows to the song: Captain Feathersword. A scene where The Wiggles are teaching Captain how to do a pirate dance.)
Wiggles: (singing) Captain Feathersword he loves to dance
He will show you how

Captain Feathersword: I will show you now.
Fold your arms in front of you, argh.

Captain Feathersword: Everybody bow. And give yourself a pirate clap, argh.
(They we're all clapping at the end. Until, it translates to Murray who is holding the socks.)
Murray: One... ..two... ..three. Three? What am I going to do with three socks? I've only got two feet.
(Greg comes to get his sock.)
Greg: One, two...three socks? But I only have two feet. What will we do with three socks? What are you gonna do with one sock, Jeff?
Jeff: I don't know, Greg. I've got two feet.
(Greg shrugs, until Anthony comes back with the sock.)
Anthony: Hey, I've only got one sock. And I've got two feet as well.
(Henry arrives with the socks.)
Henry: Hi, Wiggles! How many socks do you have there? (He counts the socks up.) One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Ah! Exactly what I need to wear my eight new shoes!
Greg: (They are handing the socks to Henry.) There you go, Henry.
Anthony: I'm glad we could help.
Greg: Yeah.
Henry: Thank you. Bye-bye!
(Then, Henry leaves until they say farewell as they exclaim.)
Anthony: Eight legs.

(Magic hat transition to Greg announces everyone how to perform a magic trick called finding the white chocolate with under these cups.)
Greg: (He's shuffling their cups.) Hurry, hurry, hurry. Step right up and find the white chocolate.
Anthony: (He arrives asking Greg.) Did you just say "white chocolate"?
Greg: I did, I did, I did. Find it and you can keep it.
Anthony: Mmm, I love white chocolate.
Greg: Then guess which one of these three cups it's under, and you can have it.
Anthony: Ah! It's a guessing game, is it?
Greg: Yes, indeed, yes, indeed. It's a game that requires great guessing skill.
Anthony: And it's under one of these three cups?
Greg: (He picks up a cup then he puts it down.) Yes — one, and only one. (He's shuffling their cups.)
Anthony: Mmm, I love white chocolate, and I guess it's under that cup.
Greg: (He picks up a cup.) Ha! Sorry, but that's a dark...
Anthony: (He's eating a dark chocolate.) Mmm!
Greg: ..chocolate.
Anthony: I love dark chocolate too.
Greg: You're supposed to find the white chocolate! (He picks up a cup then he puts it down.) Now you see it...now you don't. (He's shuffling their cups.) Which one of these two cups covers the white chocolate?
Anthony: That's easy, Greg. Only two cups left. It's under that cup!
Greg: (He picks up a cup.) Ha! Sorry, but that was...
Anthony: (He's eating a milk chocolate.) Delicious!
Greg: You're supposed to find the white chocolate!
Anthony: Well, it's really easy now. There's only one cup left — it must be under that cup. (He picks up a cup then he eats a white chocolate.) Thank you for those three chocolates. They're beautiful! (He leaves, until sharing his sandwich with Greg.) You shared your chocolates with me. I'll share my sandwich with you.
(Greg is holding a sandwich & getting confused. Until, a CGI Dorothy using her lawnmower while waving the screen transition to the song: D.O.R.O.T.H.Y. (My Favourite Dinosaur).)

Well, there must be an awful lot of ice cream if the ice cream's in here, because it's so heavy! Hoo-hoo! Oh, I hope it's ice cream, because I like ice cream too! Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! (He stops the treasure.) Wow! (He gets a gasp.) Shall we see what's inside? Do you want to have a look, me hearties? Let's see. (He opens the lid from the treasure where there is bones everywhere.) Bones?! (Wags and the Waggettes arrive in the kennel.) Bones! (They continue to bark. I guess you like this treasure, huh, boy? Well, why don't you have it then, me scallywags?

Then, it translates to The Wiggles are gonna get into the Big Red Car, while finding those 10 trees with the help of Captain Feathersword with the S.S Feathersword.)
Anthony: How far's this treasure, Captain Feathersword?
Captain Feathersword: Oh, it's about 10 Wiggle trees, Anthony!
Wiggles: 10 Wiggle trees!
Jeff: That's very, very far!
Greg: Well, we'd better get into Wiggle speed, then. (with Murray, Anthony & Jeff.) Right! Let's go! (himself.) Fasten your seatbelts, everyone.

Captain Feathersword: I'm so glad that your hearties were with me! Oh, I can't count to 10 very easily. I need a little help sometimes.
Wiggles: We're always happy to help, Captain Feathersword.
Captain Feathersword: (He is pointing that he found something.) Look! There she is!
