ANP #051: A Touch of Grass
(Cue OP-On Our Way-as the song plays, we see various shots of the Pokemon cast in the backstage area, getting ready for a show: Misty walks past one member of the lighting crew, making her trip and drop her paints, which color some of the notes on Brock's sheet music. He tries to clean the music, only to get walloped by a basketball in the face (thrown by May) Pikachu runs past all of this, down a hallway, and through a door with a star on it marked "Ash". He cries "Pika!" and points at a clock, which is ticking dangerously close to "Show Time!" Ash notices the time on the clock and ducks behind a screen to get ready, when he finishes, he's now decked out in a red top hat (with the same design as his cap) and tails. Ash then runs head on at the camera and makes a flying entrance onto a stage as the song concludes)
Female announcer: And now, it's time for the Ash and Pikachu Show!
(Pikachu climbs onto Ash's shoulder and smiles as the title card flies in from the right, a short clip of "On Our Way" in the background)
(Suddenly, Brock appears in the scene wearing his normal clothes and sunglasses)
Brock: Now THIS is a lounge lizard... (smiles over one last hit of music as the scene fades out)
(applause as Ash runs onstage to greet the crowd)
Ash: Thank you! We have a great show planned to start Season 3...safe, fun and non-toxic!
(No sooner does Ash say "toxic" does purples slime come falling onto him, much to the audience's delight)
Ash: I thought the slime war ended LAST season! (storms offstage to clean up. Misty peeks onstage to see what all the ruckus is)
Misty: Apparently it didn't... (laughter) Just don't say... (ponders how to say "toxic" without getting slimed herself) the T-word! (braces self for slime, but nothing happens) Anyway, tonight's show features the lounge lizard of the Houen starters...Treecko.
(applause as the spotlight appears on a Treecko. He waves to the audience, then adjusts his lucky twig)
Brock: Just curious, what IS the T-word?
Misty: The T-word is... (mouths the word "toxic" to avoid the slime. Brock nods to show he understands.)
Brock: Okay, so don't say 'toxic'.
(Treecko laughs as more purple slime comes falling onto Brock.)
Brock: Yuck...now I have it all over me! (heads backstage to clean up as Ash returns to the stage, all clean)
Misty: I handled your intro, so go ahead and start the cartoon while I clean the stage. (Ash nods and starts the projector, which the Treecko decides to watch)
(CARTOON-"Tree's a Crowd")
(We see a pair of live Ash hands gripping the handle of a lawn mower...after a twisting trip through the yard, we zoom up to take a look at the grassy Pikachu face Ash created as a female announcer says "You're watching 'The Ash and Pikachu Show'!")
(May returns with the mini stage and sets it on the stage. Treecko watches, fascinated, as Brock also returns, now clean)
May: What happened to you?
Brock: Let's just say the slime war we started with Team Rocket isn't over yet.. (the Treecko laughs as Brock steps on the mini stage)
(On Our Way interlude plays as the title card appears: "'Curtain Up' with May". May's face appears in the rounded part of the a in her name.)
(We see the gang roasting marshmellows over the campfire. May, however, hasn't gotten a marshmellow to roast yet.)
Misty: Need a marshmellow? (offers a marshmellow to May)
May: Thanks! (May tries to put it on her stick, but it falls in the fire.) Oops!
(Everyone gasps as the campfire's flames grow larger)
Ash: Now you've gone and done it!
May: I think we need to run rather than blame me!
(laughter as everyone runs offstage screaming)
(We see Misty come onstage, teary eyed and dabbing at said tears with a hanky)
Misty: What's the matter?
(May fights back more tears as she tells Misty. No sooner does Misty hear the news, she bursts into tears and grabs a box of Kleenex)
(Ash hears both girls crying and comes onstage, concerned.)
Ash: What's the matter?
Both girls: We DON"T HAVE A SKIT!!!! (Ash tears up and buries his face in his cap as tears come streaming down his face. The audience goes "Aww..." as the scene fades out)
(Brock hears everyone crying as he comes onstage, guitar in hand)
Brock: What's the matter? Did you guys act out a tragedy or something? (May nods and reaches for another Kleenex.) I've got the perfect song to cheer you guys up. (to the band) Take it, guys...
[guitar intro]
Brock: I wake up and hear somebody call my name...that special voice, I remember
The ocean lulls me on to sleep, my thoughts are filled with dreams of you,
My heart dreams of you tonight...
Far away, I hear the sound of crying, and where they are, I cannot tell.
When hearts are sad, they do not know, the happiness that love can bring
Without that peace and joy inside, the sadness consumes them...
I look down on the pieces of, of a dream, a wish; beautiful wish,
These feelings inside of me, they are shining like the stars!
The sea, it rolls on into an orange sun sinking in the west
These tears of mine, they are washed away into the night...
[guitar/flute solo]
Brock: On that joyous day we were created...I awakened here, and I was called,
From the sky down to the deepest sea, I hear your sad voice call to me,
No matter how the darkness falls, or how gripping the pain...
I look down on the pieces of, of a dream, a wish; beautiful wish,
These feelings inside of me, they will drive the dark away!
And the sea keeps on rolling on, as the sky turns purple with the dawn
My wish for you, do you see it shining, shining through?
One day the time will come, all the war and pain will cease!
They will all just fade away...that day, I hope, comes soon!
So then, I'll sing, so that you and the world can hear; all around, unto every land and sea...
And so gently, I call your name...
Do you hear me? Will you heed my call?
Little one, I want you to know, of the wish I have for you!
I look down on the pieces of, of a dream, a wish; beautiful wish,
These feelings inside of me, they are shining like the stars!
The sea, it rolls on into an orange sun sinking in the west
These tears of mine, they are washed away into the night...
Na na na na, na na na na...
(Ash brushes away a tear as Brock concludes another solo)
Ash: Thanks, Brock...I feel better already...
May: Me too... (the Treecko skiiters to the projector and starts it)
(CARTOON-"What You Seed is What You Get!")
(We join Ash, Pikachu, and the Treecko onstage)
Ash: Well, we're almost out of time for tonight...
May: I didn't know that skit would get everyone crying...
(Sure enough, sniffling is heard throughout the audience)
Ash: Don't cry, guys! We'll be back tomorrow at the same time! (applause) Until then, see ya!
Pikachu: Pika! (waves goodbye as the curtain closes. "On Our Way" reprise plays as the credits roll)
