GIRL ON TABLET: The best thing you can do is to give up, Wicked Waynita.

There you are! Come on! It's already started.

MAN: The second best thing you can do

is to give up the beta blaster, Wicked Waynita.

WAYNITA: Never. You'll have to defy gravity to catch me.

And that you can never do.

(screen pings)

"Are you a Number Gnome?"

(snorts) No way! I'm a Grosser!

(chuckles)

GIRL: That's what you think, Wicked Waynita.

MAN: You're not the only one who can fly. I can fly.

Watch me fly.

(crashing)

- (chuckles) That looked painful. - (screen pings)

"Hashtag. Are you a Happy Hippo?"

Nope. I am not a Happy Hippo either.

(screen pings)

(sighs) No, thank you.

I do not want to be a Number Gnome.

(screen pings)

I do not want to be a Happy Hippo.

- (screen pings) - I do not want any more messages.

Really, the things some people sign up to.

(beeps)

(grunts) No one ever plugs this thing in!

Wonder what everyone else is up to.

(beeps)

Hey, Henry.

Hey, Ralph's mum.

Is Rude...? Uh, is Ralph in?

He isn't in. He's out.

Oh, right. Uh, do you know when he'll be back?

Oh, yes. He'll be back when he's back.

Right. Well, I'll come back later then, shall I?

Why don't you come back later, Henry?

Yes. Yes, I'll do that.

Bye, Henry.

Bye, Ralph's mum.

Horrid boy.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

Ooh! Uh, thank you. I think.

Hey, Bert's dad. Is Bert with you?

- I dunno. - OK, is he at home, then?

- I dunno. - Has he gone to the park?

- I dunno. - The playground?

- I dunno. - The cinema?

- I dunno. - Swimming pool?

- I dunno. - Someone else's house?

- I dunno. - My house?

- I dunno. - Oh, well, then.

- I guess you don't know where Bert is. - I dunno.

William's mum says William can't come out to play,

'cause he's waiting for something.

(scoffs) Weird.

So, if the dingle dongle goes here, and the multiple matcher goes here,

that means that the...

- (knock on door) - Who's that?

- HENRY: It's me. - It's Henry!

- It's me. - Oh, uh, Henry, come on in.

What are you doing, Brian?

I'm... Oh...

I'm not supposed to tell you.

- You're not supposed to tell me? - It's a secret.

- A secret? - It's complicated.

Lots of things are complicated, Brian.

Oh, I know.

The last maths test Miss Battle-Axe set us was really complicated, and--

Life's complicated, Brian.

Yes, it is Henry.

It's to do with our homework, Henry.

Homework?

Yes, remember how Wheelie Walter asked us

to think about how we communicate with each other?

How we communicate with each other?

Yes, basically, how we talk to each other.

Thank you, Brian. I-I do understand what it means.

Well, I started thinking about the Romans, you see.

- Right. - They had wax tablets.

- Did they now? - Yes.

They were a bit like an early computer screeny thingy, if you think about it.

Um, run that by me one more time, Brian.

BRIAN: I read all about it in this book.

- You can borrow it if you like, Henry. - (knock on door)

Hey, Brian. Hey, Henry.

I've told him it's a secret.

- Did you tell him anything else? - Nothing, Ralph. Honest.

Well, to be truthful, you did tell me something else.

Something about wax tablets, and the Romans, and communicating.

But it didn't make any sense.

- Good. Off you go, then, Henry. - But--

I promise you'll be the first to know about it. When it's ready.

Though technically you already are the first to know about it.

Apart from me and Brian, of course.

It's alright, Ralph. I get the message.

- I don't think he got the message. - Any minute now, Al. He will.

- How come he never noticed us? - I dunno.

I thought you would want to be the first to press the button.

- Cool! - Very cool.

(clattering and parping from machine)

You did it, Brian!

Let's make sure everyone's got the message.

Seems like no one wants me around.

Henry. (sobs)

What's the matter, William?

(sobs) Nothing, Henry.

I just got the message.

What message?

You know, the message.

Greetings, Lord High Majesty. Did you get the message?

No. What message?

Uh, I got the message.

Alright, alright. I got the message.

Well, I didn't get the message exactly, but...

Hey, Bert. I suppose you got the message?

I dunno.

- We got the message! - We got the message.

Yeah, got the message.

What, you got the message, too?

Yeah, got the message, too.

You get the message?

Do you have any idea what's going on here?

ALL: We got the message.

Unbelievable!

Anyone else round here get the message?

I got the message.

- Oh, no, you don't! - (yaps)

Think he got the message.

Hey! Wait for me!

(pants) Come on, Henry! Keep up!

CROWD: I got the message...

(indistinct chatter)

What's going on?

You got the message, Henry's mum?

I got the message.

I got the message, too!

Seems like everyone got the message, except me.

Hey, Henry. Did you get the message?

Um, I... Uh, no, sir. I don't think I did.

That's odd. I'm sure they said they'd text everyone when they were ready.

No mobile phone, sir.

No mobile phone, Henry?

No, sir. You see, my parents...

I've got two, sir.

- Takes all sorts, eh, Henry? - I guess you could say that, sir.

Is that for me, Henry?

Well...

Apology accepted.

Think she got the message, Henry?

- No. Oh, no, sir. - (window opens)

CROWD: We got the message.

Introducing Brian. Brainy Brian.

CROWD: Hooray for Brian!

And hooray for Fartchat.

A new way of talking to each other.

(crowd mutters)

Henry, this message is for you.

(farting from keyboard)

Did you get the message, Henry?

Well, Henry, did you get the message?

I did, sir.

It said, "He's not just Henry. He's a very horrid boy."

(chuckles)

(crowd cheers)

(chuckles)

ANNOUNCER: And now it's time for the Boodle Poodles to strut their stuff.

(funky theme music plays)

DAD: Everyone? I'm home.

HENRY: Hi, Dad.

(meows)

Hello, Fluffy Wuffy. Had a nice day doing nothing?

(meows)

- Ready, Henry? - Ready, Dad.

I'll just get my glasses.

What?

Ah! Hey, Fluffy Wuffy. Had a good day?

Come on, then. What are we waiting for?

- TV: Gross Class Breakout! - (switches channel)

Did I leave my glasses in here?

Uh, no, I don't think so.

- Try the fridge. - Don't be horrid, Henry.

- Nice channel change, Henry. - Thanks.

- What? - Mum's glasses.

- What about Mum's glasses? - You're wearing them.

Uh, oh, yeah. Couldn't find mine.

Come on. We're missing the show.

- (channel switches) - BOTH: And so are you!

Ah, too slow, Dad.

Henry!

What did I say about not watching TV until you've done your homework?

Um...

You mean to say you haven't done your homework, Henry?

Are those my glasses you're wearing?

Uh, could be.

BOTH: No!

AL: See the show last night, Henry?

- A bit. - Cool!

- Then Mum caught us. - Oh. Not cool.

Yeah. Got sent straight to bed.

Definitely not cool. In fact, a bit harsh, I'd say.

- Not as harsh as Dad. - You what, Henry?

He had to read the Number Gnomes in Space to the worm. (chuckles)

(they chuckle)

What have I told you girls?

No boodling in the corridor.

(they chuckle)

Girls. Will we ever understand them?

Why would we want to? Waste of brain space, if you ask me.

(snores)

(hoots)

(yawns)

(meows)

(funky theme music plays)

(purrs)

(tuts)

Typical! They never think to turn it off.

(sighs) Or to recharge it.

Come on, Fluffy. Off the sofa.

(meows)

(hums)

(slurps)

- Want to hear a joke? - Not really.

It's a very funny one.

Hmm, still not really.

Mum! Henry doesn't want to hear a joke!

MUM: Don't be horrid, Henry.

(hums)

- Henry, have you seen...? - Your tie?

- No. - Good. 'Cause you're wearing it.

I know I'm wearing it. Sometimes, Henry...

I know. Sometimes you just don't know.

Right. Yes. Exactly. Now, what was I looking for?

(slurps)

- Want to hear a joke now, Henry? - You're a joke!

(wails)

- What have you done now, Henry? - Nothing.

And where have you put the computer screeny thingy?

Nowhere.

It's not where I left it last night.

Oh. It's not in the fridge, then?

Don't be horrid, Henry.

Yeah. Don't be horrid, Henry.

Why is it always me?

Because, Henry.

(hums)

Ah, there you are. You haven't seen the computer screeny thingy?

Uh, no. Got to rush. Busy day today.

Bye.

There it is. Henry!

- Yes, Mum? - What's this?

It's the computer screeny thing you were looking for.

I know that. What's it doing here?

How should I know? Maybe Fluffy was using it.

Ooh. Don't be horrid, Henry!

(sighs) Here we go again. Henry gets the blame.

(tuts and sighs)

MUM: Henry, are you ready for bed yet?

PETER: I'm ready for bed, Mum.

MUM: Henry, it's bedtime.

- PETER: I'm in bed, Mum. - MUM: Good night, Peter.

PETER: Good night, Mum. Good night, Dad.

DAD: Good night, Peter.

PETER: Good night, Henry.

HENRY: Good night, worm.

ALL THREE: Don't be horrid, Henry!

(owl hoots)

- (beeps) - (theme music plays)

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

(tweets)

MUM: Henry!

Huh? What?

(groans) What's happening?

(snores)

- You've done it again, Henry. - What?

- I'm A Lady. - I know you are!

It's not working.

I want to look at the I'm A Lady website, and it's not working.

Do you remember that I explained to you that it won't work,

if the battery runs out?

Huh!

(snores)

I'm not stupid, Henry.

I know you're not.

I know how these computer screeny thingies work.

You can plug it in while I get breakfast.

- But that means... - Yes, you've got to get out of bed.

Maybe that'll teach you not to use up all the battery.

But...

Me again.

(yawns)

- Where are you going with that, Henry? - To plug it in, worm.

PETER: Ooh, goody. I've got a Number Gnomes episode to catch up on.

Be my guest.

(yawns)

PETER: Ooh, sorry, Fluffy Wuffy.

(meows and purrs)

- TV: And now... - Oh.

For all you people who are still tracking pressure circles

over the Arctic zone...

Oh, Fluffy Wuffy!

Are you trying to play with the computer screeny thingy?

(chuckles)

Boodle Poodles?

Who watches Boodle Poodles in this house?

(gasps) Unless...

It couldn't be.

It couldn't be Henry, could it?
