Morning!

Just off to the park for a quick scoot.

The fact that it's Saturday and I haven't done my chores yet

has got nothing to do with me going out to get some fresh air. [laughs]

Uh-oh.

[boing]

Horrid boy!

[Henry giggles]

Hey, Ralph.

[slap]

Hey, Henry.

Ready to hit the park?

Yep, but we need to drop this off first for my mum.

OK, cool.

-This way. -OK, cool.

Horrid boy.

[boing]

Not cool.

-[splashing] -Noooooooooooooo!

Hey, Henry, off to the park?

Yep, on my way.

Going anywhere near my dad's hut?

Could be.

-Can you give him this? -Sure.

I promised him I'd drop it round,

but I'm off to play football. Saves me going.

No problem.

Here, have a Filibuster Fizz.

Oh, cool.

Don't mind if I do.

-Payment for the job. -[laughs] Yeah, I guess.

[shop bell rings]

What you got there, Henry?

Oh, just helping out.

Got a Filibuster Fizz for doing it.

Cool. My mum gave me a bag of Whopper Whizzballs

for dropping off her parcel.

Double cool.

Reckon half the payment should be yours,

seeing as you did the job with me.

Seems fair. [laughs]

[growling]

[barking]

[boing]

[growling]

Hello there, young Henry.

-Got a minute? -Yeah, sure.

Only, I've got a little job for you.

Henry! There you are!

Er, yep. Here I am.

Hold Vera, would you?

Er, sure.

-[Vera giggles] -Word to the wise, young Henry.

Yeah?

Best not to jiggle her up and down too much.

-Oh? -[Vera giggles]

[blah]

Right.

[laughs] Just as well I've got my cleaning cloth with me.

[cloth squeaks]

Bring her up Henry. [laughs]

[laughs] Yeah, "Bring her up." Very funny.

Grown-ups are so weird.

Took a bit of persuading to get Mum to let me out again.

She wanted me to babysit vomiting Vera.

As if!

Yeah, as if.

Oh, I didn't mean...

It's alright, Henry. Not a big fan of vomit meself.

You said you had a job for me?

Yeah, this needs to go to number 43.

Cool.

How much?

How much what?

How much you gonna pay me for the delivery?

[laughs] Deliver that first one safely

and I'll give you something for this one.

OK.

That was quick.

That's me. The Scoot Scooter.

I like it, Henry.

Quite the little businessman, aren't you?

There's a penny in it for you

if deliver that one just as quickly.

Cool.

And double the fee if you get all these delivered

the day before yesterday.

[laughs] Only joking, Henry.

Just get them delivered double quick.

No problem, boss. [ding]

[laughs] You'll be your own boss soon.

[Henry laughs]

Your own boss, eh?

Ha! That's what you think.

So lovely to see you both.

[Vera giggles]

Blah!

Do come again soon.

Blah!

Hey, what about my payment?

Oh, I gave it to your boss.

You didn't tell me you'd already set up a business.

I didn't know I'd already set up a business.

Yeah, your boss came over just after you'd gone,

said you're splitting the payments 50/50.

Did she now? I'm assuming it was a girl?

Yeah, said she was the beauty and the brains.

Yeah, that figures.

I was quite impressed, Henry, I must say.

-[car engine starts] -Toodle pip!

[Mum] That was nice.

Henry?

Henry!

He's really taking this fresh air thing seriously.

Should I be worried?

Yes?

You've got my money.

Our money.

I earnt that money fair and square.

Primrose petal, is this your business partner?

-No. -Yes.

Looks like the boy next door to me.

Yeah, well, needs must.

Give me my money, Margaret.

I'll leave you to handle this, primrose pumpkin.

No.

We're expanding.

What do you mean?

We've got a driver.

-A driver? -Dad!

Yes, Princess Plumb Petal?

Car! Now!

Yes, of course, Princess Plumb Petal.

You in or out, Henry?

[sighs]

[upbeat jazz]

[doorbell rings]

[camera clicks]

[camera clicks]

I'm not sure this is the best way to do it.

This is progress, Henry.

And anyway, don't you wanna be rich?

Well, yes, but--

No pain, no gain, Henry.

But that's the point. There's no pain at all, it's all too easy.

Typical. You workers are never happy.

[car brakes]

This is where you get out.

Oh, yes.

Payday's Friday.

[sighs] Yep, that figures.

Workers of the world unite.

You have nothing to lose

but your dignity, Henry.

[knocking]

[knocking]

[knocking]

[sighs] Can you believe it?

[Fang] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[knocking at door]

Oi, snotbrain.

What are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

What do you mean? This is my bedroom!

Precisely! You're 20 minutes late

for strategy review meeting.

I don't even know what you're talking about.

And anyway, it's Sunday morning and I haven't even had my breakfast yet.

[sighs] Excuses, excuses.

Put that on.

What is it?

New uniform. All employees have to wear it.

Then why aren't you wearing it?

Because I'm the boss.

Come on! What are you waiting for?

It's alright. I'm not looking.

[ding]

Come on then. Let's get to work.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Mum] Oh, er...

Nice to see you, Margaret.

More fresh air?

I suppose I should be pleased.

Slow down slugsnot.

-Why? Don't you want me to get to work? -Well, yes but...

[chatter]

[camera clicks]

What's going on?

Hey, Henry! Soraya and me are designing the company logo.

And I'm doing the accounts.

Good.

Then you can pay me my wages and I'll be off.

Can't do that I'm afraid.

What?

-She spent all the money. -What?

That's not possible!

How much do you think that uniform of yours cost?

I'd get out quick if I were you.

[Margaret] Oi!

Henry? Henry!

Henry! Come back now!

Everything OK, Henry? Whatever are you wearing, Henry?

[phone ringing]

It's a long story, Dad.

Henry, it's Paul on the phone.

Something about a parcel he wants you to delivery for him.

Noooooooooo!

[Fang] There must be a hamster like me in every bedroom in every house.

A hamster who's happy to play, to run on his wheel,

if that's your thing,

to hibernate when you're least expecting it.

Yes, sir. I'm a regular hamster.

So, when Henry had his Snotslimer confiscated

for the 350th time,

I told myself, "No problem."

[Henry] Can you believe it, Fang?

She's confiscated it again.

This has got to be the 100th...

No, the 200th...

The 350th time it's happened!

[Fang] See, that's my owner.

I must admit I didn't think much of him the first time I laid eyes on him.

But now he's my best friend.

Now, it's personal.

They call him Henry.

Horrid Henry.

Noooooooooo!

Nooooooooo!

[Peter] Mum says can you stop yelling

or not have any crumble cookies for a week,

-a month, a year. -Thanks, worm.

[Peter] Oh, and by the way...

-What? -Don't call me worm.

Erm, what have you got there little brother?

You did it, Henry.

You didn't call me worm! Twice.

-What's that? -Oh.

This is Bernard.

Bernard? What kind of name is that for a hamster?

It's a very good name for a hamster, in fact,

he's Bernard 42.

Why?

Because all the other Bernards got lost.

Oh, I see. I think.

Miss Lovely said I could bring him home for the night

because I could be trusted to look after him.

-Really? -Yes. Really, Henry.

Now, if you'll excuse us,

Bernard 42 and I have to get ready for bed.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Bernard] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Bernard] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Come on, Henry. We'll be late.

Oh, no, you don't, Henry.

Why not?

Because Bernard is a guest.

And guests get to ride in the front.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Since when?

Since now, Henry.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

-Henry -Huh? What did you say, Mum?

I said, do you want another chip?

No thanks, Mum.

Is there something wrong, Henry?

It's not like you to say no to a chip, Henry.

It's Fang.

I know this sounds silly but he doesn't seem himself today.

Really? How so?

He spends the whole time reading his comic.

Reading his comic?

I mean, well, you know, sitting looking at my comics.

[laughs] Oh, right.

I thought for one minute you were saying he had a comic of his own.

Oh, no, that would be kind of weird.

He seems fine to me, Henry.

Really?

Yes, we had a few games of chess earlier.

He was on good form.

Chess?

Henry!

Oops. Silly me.

[crunch]

[Fang groaning]

[Sid] One, two, three, four, five.

One, two, three, four, five.

[Sid humming]

[Sid whistling]

[whirling]

[lasers scanning]

One, two, three, four, five.

[Fang muttering]

[Sid coughing]

[Sid coughing]

[whirling]

[Henry] Anyway, if I can't call you worm,

then what am I going to call you?

You can call me Peter.

[Henry] Peter? What kind of a name is Peter?

[Peter] It's perfect. That's what it is, Henry.

Huh! Says you.

-Night, Henry. -Night, worm.

Night, old friend.

Hmm.

[Fang coughing]

[Fang breathing heavily]

Oooh!

[Sid muttering]

Sugar rush.

Gotta lay off of that chocolate spread.

It's OK, pal. You can open your eyes now.

Where am I?

Amongst friends. I'm Bernard 24.

Bernard 37.

Bernard 48.

Bernard 22.

What number Bernard are you?

I'm not Bernard.

[gasps]

[altogether] Not Bernard!

-How's Bernard 42? -He's OK.

-He's one of us. -I know.

Listen up, guys. We're being rescued.

[cheering]

[Fang coughs]

I am Fang.

[cheering]

But I'm not here to rescue you.

[sighs]

I'm here to rescue a Snotslimer.

[cheering]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You speak hamster, don't ya?

What's a Snotslimer?

Let me show you.

[boing]

[banging]

[cheering]

I can take it from here.

We're coming with ya.

What? All of you?

We're on our way to a special place.

Where's that then?

It's called the Blue Yonder.

They say it has no memory.

That's where we want to live for the rest of our lives.

A warm places with no memories.

Sounds good to me.

Dawn is in the air.

We'd better get going.

[Fang] And so we left that place of great sadness,

where so many hamsters had been lost over so many years.

And as we walked,

I told them of the Seven Wonders of the human world.

Of a master called Henry. Horrid Henry.

A mum who cleans my cage week in, week out.

A worm who is a little brother and who says,

"Eek," a lot.

The enemy next door who never gives up trying to win.

The Whirring Wheel that makes all the colours blend into one.

The Tickly Treats Cave

that always smells delicious.

And my special sleeping box

that is sometimes dark and sometimes light

but always cosy.

I have to remind myself

that some hamsters aren't meant to be caged.

There spirits are just too bright.

And when they leave,

there's a part of you that knows that they have to go.

Still, the place you live in

can seem that much more drab and empty when they're gone.

I guess I just miss my friends.

[Fang sighs]

[Bernard] Remember, Fang, hope is a good thing.

Maybe the best of things.

[Fang] And when I remember what happened,

I find I'm so excited

that I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head.

I think it's the excitement only a free hamster can feel.

A free hamster at the start of a long journey

whose conclusion is uncertain.

One day, I hope to see my friends

and shake their paws.

I hope the Blue Yonder

is as blue as it is in my dreams.

I hope.
