Dr. Ducksworthy / Speak No Evil
Dr. Ducksworthy Angela and her friends are playing Hospital Beach; a game based on a popular soap opera. Johnny is in need of an operation. The only qualified physician is his sock puppet, Dr. Ducksworthy. Angela gets so caught up in the game, she throws Dr. Ducksworthy out the window. The poor puppet gets caught in a tree. Johnny tries to rescue it, but he injures himself in the process. Johnny ends up in a real hospital. He's going to need x-rays but is afraid of the machine. He desperately wants Dr. Ducksworthy by his side. Unable to get him down from the tree, Angela decides that she'll just have to make Johnny a new puppet. Gordy and Gina reluctantly go along with Angela's plan. They're afraid that a different puppet might give Johnny bad luck. Wouldn't you know it, as soon as Angela gives Johnny the fake Dr. Ducksworthy, bad things happen. When a person is in the hospital, the last thing they need is bad luck. Will Angela be able to fix this situation, or is Johnny doomed? Speak No Evil To show her solidarity with local broccoli farmers, Josephine has taken a vow of silence to protest the ongoing drought. Sensing that Angela is unable to answer a question in class, Gina blurts out that Angela is also taking a vow of silence. Angela, according to Gina, is ceasing to speak in order to protest poor teacher wages. Mrs. Brinks is thrilled. Angela is more then willing to go along with this deception; it will get her out of doing schoolwork. Keeping quiet is more difficult then it seems. Not being able to speak in school means she's not able to discuss her favorite television shows, unable to accept offers of delicious desserts, unable to participate in show and tell. Angela has to find someone to talk to. Luckily, Josephine Praline has a make shift confessional set up at school. The kids can tell her anything and she's promised to not repeat a thing. So Angela confesses. Josephine can't let Angela's deception go unpunished but at the same time she can't go back on her secrecy promise. However, it has recently rained, and Josephine can think of many ways to use her voice that may get Angela talking.
