(The episode starts with a song: In The Wiggles' World.)
(An opening scene from the TV Series 2 is shown.)
Greg: (singing) We know a world, a magic world
Come with us and see
(with the Other Wiggles singing.) Anything can happen in this special world
It can happen to you or me
Greg: (singing) It's where The Wiggles live
Why don't you come along
And meet their friends as well.
There's music and dancing, magic and games
(with the Other Wiggles singing.) And lots of great stories to tell
In The Wiggles' world, in The Wiggles' world
You're all welcome here
Greg: (singing) So let's give a cheer
Welcome to The Wiggles' world.
(with the Other Wiggles singing.) In The Wiggles' world. In The Wiggles' world
Greg: (singing) You're all welcome here, so let's give a cheer, welcome to The Wiggles' world.
(A sparkle glitter transition to The Wiggles are getting ready.)
Anthony: Are you ready, Murray?
Murray: Ready, Anthony.
Anthony: Ready, Greg?
Greg: Ready, Anthony.
Anthony: Ready, Jeff?
(Jeff snores.)
Greg: Jeff's not ready.
Murray: Jeff's fallen asleep. Let's wake him up. Are you ready? After I count three. One, two, three. (with Greg & Anthony.) Wake up, Jeff!
Jeff: (He blubbers, while waking up.) What?
Anthony: Jeff, are you ready?
Jeff: Yes, I'm ready.
Anthony: Good. A-one, a-two, a-one...
(Jeff snores. He's asleep again!)
Anthony: Jeff. Wake up, Jeff!
Jeff: (He blubbers, while waking up again.) What happened?
Murray: Jeff, you fell asleep again.
Jeff: I know. Anthony asked me if I was ready. And I said I was. Ready to sleep.
Greg: Not ready to sleep...
Anthony: Ready to sing.
Jeff: Oh! I'm ready to sing.
Anthony: Good. A-one, a-two, a-one, two, three.
Murray, Greg & Jeff: (They're singing while wiggling except, Anthony can't.) Get ready to wiggle
We've been ready for so long
Get ready to wiggle...
Murray: (to camera.) What's wrong with Anthony?
Greg: I don't know. What's the matter, Anthony?
Anthony: (He sighs.) I can't wiggle anymore. I've forgotten.
Jeff: Forgotten how to wiggle?
Murray: But Anthony, that's impossible. You're a Wiggle. Wiggles don't forget how to wiggle. (He faces the audience.) Can you remember how to wiggle? See, Anthony, they remember how to wiggle.
Anthony: I know. But I don't remember. I can't wiggle anymore.
Murray: But, Anthony, it's easy. Look.
(Anthony sees Greg, Murray and Jeff wiggling, and realises he still can't wiggle.)
Anthony: Oh, it's no use, guys. I've lost my wiggle. I can't wiggle anymore.
Murray: Don't worry, Anthony. You'll get it back.
Jeff: Sure, you'll remember. It's like riding a bike. You never forget.
Anthony: But I did forget. I did. I did. I did.
Greg: Now calm down, Anthony. The best thing for you to do is not think about wiggling.
Jeff: That's right. The more you think about it, the more worried you get.
Greg: And the more worried you are... (with the others.) The harder it is to wiggle. (He suddenly has an idea.) Hey, let's invite Dorothy over. She might be able to help Anthony.
Murray: Good idea.
Jeff: Yeah.
(All the Wiggles walk, except for Anthony who is attempting to wiggle whilst walking. Until, Puppet Anthony pulls the screen transition to Anthony talking about meeting one of their favourite friends.)
Anthony: We'd like you to meet a friend of ours, who's not a person like you or me. She's a dinosaur. And her name is Dorothy the Dinosaur. Now, Dorothy the Dinosaur's a very friendly dinosaur. She's green, she's got yellow spots, she wears a white floppy hat. But, best of all, Dorothy the Dinosaur loves to eat roses. Dorothy also loves to sing this. She sings... "Romp Bomp a Chomp. Romp Bomp a Chomp..." Can you sing that with us? Let's try it. "Romp Bomp a Chomp. Romp Bomp a Chomp." That's great. Now, here's a song about the first time that we met Dorothy the Dinosaur.
(Song: Dorothy the Dinosaur. A scene where Greg is gonna sing a song about their friendly dinosaur named Dorothy.)
Greg: (singing) I was looking out my window late the other night
She was sitting in the garden and gave me such a fright
Eating all Mum's roses there in the moonlight
It was Dorothy the Dinosaur
Dorothy: (She giggles.)
(with others.) Chomp!
Greg: (singing) I knew that if Mum saw her, she'd never let her stay
A dinosaur that's big is that it's feeding night and day
I'd have to find a place where I could hide her away
Dorothy the Dinosaur
All: (singing) Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Dorothy: Ooh, roses! I like it here!
Greg: (singing) Dorothy the Dinosaur,
(with others.) Chomp!
Greg: (singing) I knew that she was so big that she'd soon be found
My mother called the dogcatcher; he came around
When he laid his eyes on her, he fell to the ground
Paul Field: (as Dog Catcher.) "Now I take it, that's Dorothy the Dinosaur!"
All: (singing) Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Dorothy: Oh, my stomach hurts! I'm still hungry. Do you think I could get some roses in the back garden now?
Greg: (singing) Dorothy the Dinosaur,
(with others.) Chomp!
Greg: (singing) They called up the police to take her right away
They called up the zoo to find a place to stay
I said they couldn't take her, I said "No way,
That's Dorothy the Dinosaur!"
Dorothy: That's me!
All: (singing) Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Dorothy: Ooh, roses!
Greg: (singing) Dorothy the Dinosaur,
(with others.) Chomp
All: (singing) Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Romp Bomp a Chomp, Romp Bomp a Chomp
Greg: (singing) Dorothy the Dinosaur,
Dorothy: (She giggles.)
(with others.) Chomp!
(Bones transition to Wags is dancing while barking. Then, the Waggettes come down the slide and heard a yap. Wags was trying to exercise with the Waggettes while the music plays in the background "Get Ready To Wiggle". The fitness class when they all workout to fitness music. Then, Dorothy the Dinosaur's spots transition to Dorothy humming to the kitchen table. The Wiggles talk about wiggling.)
Dorothy: This soup is made with wiggly rose petals and wavy gravy. It should help you get your wiggle back, Anthony.
Anthony: I hope so, Dorothy. I miss wiggling.
Murray: Mmm, this soup wiggles all the way down.
Jeff: Same here.
Greg: Me too.
Anthony: Hmm. (He creaks.) I can nod. (He nods his head.) I can shrug. (He shrugs his shoulders.) I can tap my feet. (He taps his feet.) But I can't wiggle.
Dorothy: Oh, try another spoonful, Anthony. (He tries a spoonful and starts squeaking.) Maybe I put in too much garlic.
Greg: Why don't we take a look at how you used to dance?
Wiggles: Yes!
Greg: Remember, 'We're Dancing With Wags The Dog'?
(Dorothy gasps. Then, a dream transition to the song: We're Dancing With Wags The Dog. The Wiggles start dancing with Wags doing the actions.)
(Wags barking.)
Greg: (singing) Let's shake our hips with Wags the Dog
Turn your head and groove along
Shake your hands and move your knees, we're dancing with Wags The Dog
Put your hands up in the air
Point them down once you've got them there
Skip along like Wags would do it, dancing with Wags The dog
Wags: Ruff, Ruff, Ruff...Ruff, Ruff
Greg: (singing) Now we're singing it too
Wags: Ruff, Ruff, Ruff...Ruff, Ruff
Greg: (singing) Now Wags is digging, and we're all digging too...
Shake your hips with Wags The Dog
Turn your head and groove along
Shake your hands and move your knees, we're dancing with Wags The Dog
Wags: Ruff Ruff Ruff...Ruff Ruff
Now we're singing it too
Wags: Ruff, Ruff, Ruff...Ruff, Ruff
Now Wags is digging...and we're all digging too...
Wags: Ruff!
(It transitions to Caveman Greg and Caveman Murray in this cave holding the egg. Then, Jeff and Anthony reminded me while he is holding a bone. He shakes the pin while they are putting the egg down on the ground. Then, Anthony stirs a bone who likes to dance. They dance together in a cave really slow. Once they all dance really fast, until she comes out of an egg.)
Baby Dorothy: Ta-da! (She giggles.)
(They touch the baby dinosaur. Then, a pirate ship transition to Captain Feathersword who is going to take his own photograph.)
Captain Feathersword: Oh, lucky my camera has a special timer and I could take my own photograph. (He turns the camera on, then he hums cheerfully while he hears a click.) There! I... (Stops clicking.) Oh, no! You're supposed to wait until I'm ready, you silly camera. Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo. (He walks back to the camera and hums, until the timer clicks.) There. (He looks at the picture while he shows a smile.) Come on, camera, take my photo! (He continues to hear a tick.) Did I hear a click? Oh, come on, camera, click! (He smiles at the camera.) Oh, please click, camera! Come on, click! (It is showing a picture of his teeth.) I just took a photograph of my teeth.
(A circle transition to Officer Beaples, the little Beaples are dancing with Wags, Captain & Henry. But then, Jeff come towards Officer Beaples who blows her whistle to stop while teaching him to do some dance steps. Then, she crossed arms with Jeff & they both dance together. Until it transitions to Greg dancing and humming.)
Greg: No. Anthony, you need to bend your knees on the beat. (He continues to hum more, while trying to get Anthony to wiggle.)
Dorothy: Like this, Anthony. (He doesn't know how to wiggle while he dances.) Hmm, I think you should watch another of our songs, Anthony.
(Alarm clock transition to the song: Get Ready To Wiggle.)
Greg: (singing) Get ready to wiggle!

(It transitions to Wags and the Waggettes who are learning a dance from Captain Feathersword's Yo-Ho-Ho pirate dance.)
Captain Feathersword: Come on, me hearties. I'll show you the yo-ho-ho dance. Hoo-hoo-hoo. Here we go. Are you ready? Hoo-hoo! (He starts dancing.) Yo ho ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho.

And you can try it as well, me hearties. Come and have fun with me. Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo. Oh, this'll be great. Whoa-ho-ho! (He starts singing again.) Yo ho ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo ho... Oh! Whoa. Whoa. Oh, stop! Stop, stop! Oh, it's a pirate dance, me hearties. It's supposed to rock. Wow! And roll. (He rolls to the Waggettes.) Like you're on board a ship on the waves a-rockin' and rollin'. I've got a great idea. Ahoy there, me hearties.
(The pirates arrive.)
Crew: Ahoy there, Captain. Ahoy there, me hearties.
Captain Feathersword: Pirate Rudolph, pirate Charlie, and pirate James, can you please demonstrate the yo-ho-ho dance, please? Hoo-hoo-hoo. (with the crew singing and dancing.) Yo ho ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo ho ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo ho ho ho-ho. (to himself.) Oh, wow! Oh, that was great. There, you see how it's done? Oh it's so easy. Hey, why don't we try again? We can do it all together. And you can try, too. Here we go now, me hearties. This will be fun. Wow! Hoo-hoo! (with the crew singing and dancing.) Yo ho ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo ho ho. Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho. Yo ho ho ho-ho. (to himself.) Wow! Oh, wow. That was great. You did so well, me hearties. (The Wiggles walk behind.) Well, blow me down. (They all blow the Captain down. The Wiggles arrive at the dockyard.) Oh, I've gotta stop saying that. Oh! It's the Wiggles!
Wiggles: Hi, Captain Feathersword.
Captain Feathersword: Ahoy there, me hearties. Ho-ho. Oh, Anthony, what's wrong? You look a little bit worried.
Anthony: That's because I am, Captain Feathersword.
Greg: We're all worried, Captain Feathersword.
Murray: We certainly are.
Captain Feathersword: There's no need to be worried with Captain Feathersword and his crew. Hoo-hoo. We'll protect you, won't we, me hearties?
Crew: We shall, Captain.
Captain Feathersword: Now, who's worrying you, me Wiggly hearty? And I'll tickle 'em with my feathersword. (He tickles the feathers in the air.)
Greg: It's not a 'who' that's worrying us.
Murrray: It's a 'what'.
Captain Feathersword: A 'what'?
Jeff: A what.
Captain Feathersword: What what?
Anthony: This what. Guys?
Murray, Greg & Jeff: (They sing while wiggling except, Anthony can't.) Get ready to wiggle
We've been ready for so long
Get ready...
Captain Feathersword: Wait, wait, wait, wait! Anthony, why aren't you wiggling like the other wiggle Wiggles?
Anthony: I can't.
Captain Feathersword: You can't what?
Anthony: I can't wiggle like a Wiggle.
Greg: He can nod. (They all nod.)
Murray: He can shrug. (They all shrug their shoulders.)
Jeff: He can tap his foot. (They all tap their feet.)

Henry: We can wiggle too.
Anthony: I know. But I can't wiggle. Tsk. Look, if I can't wiggle, I may as well say goodbye.
Wags: Ruff! Ruff!
Anthony: (He waves goodbye, while Wags tickles him with captain's sword and giggles.) Forget goodbye. I'm wiggling. Someone's tickling me. I'm wiggling.
Wiggles: Hooray!
(Then they all dance the pirate dance. Then, a camera clicks a transition to the concert clip: The Monkey Dance (Live). A scene filmed on December 7, 1998 at Sydney Entertainment Centre.)
