Lizzie: Sounds like fun!

Kieran: This is so exciting!

Cinderelmo: Cinderelmo's so excited!

Ginger: Me too!

Princeton: Well, then, what are we waiting for? Let's get packing and meet all our friends at the bus stop!

All: (Cheering)

(Princeton, Kate Monster, Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran and Lizzie begin to pack up their things for the big camping trip.)

ALL:

The more we get together, together, together

The more we get together, the happier we'll be

(As they sang, Cinderelmo, Ginger, Lizzie and Kieran packed their flashlights, extra batteries and sleeping bags.)

'Cause your friends are my friends and my friends are your friends

The more we get together, the happier we'll be

Kate Monster: We got the food, first aid kit, and tent packed!

Princeton: And the compass, map, GPS device, some water bottles and some extra clothes, too! (calling out) Have you packed what you needed for the trip, kids?

Cinderelmo, Ginger, Lizzie and Kieran: (in unison) Yes, Dad!

Trumplet: Hey! Wait for me! I wanna go camping, too!

Cinderelmo: Come on, Trumplet! Let's go!

Kieran: Yeah, hop into Cinderelmo's pack!

Trumplet: Oh boy! (Then he jumps off and gets with Cinderelmo)

Kate Monster: Morning, Trumplet! Nice of you to join us!

Trumplet: Hello, Princeton and Kate! I've been waiting a long time for this!

Princeton: We all have! And now, off we go!

(Then the group headed out the door.)

ALL:

The more we play together, together, together

(As they sang, Nicky put his Rubber Duckie in his pack at the same time Rod packed his toothbrush in his own.)

The more we play together, the happier we'll be

(Ricky came up with a bag full of emergency supplies and placed it near Nicky and Rod's packs, and the three gave each other a high five.)

'Cause your friends are my friends and my friends are your friends

(Stephanie, in the same scouting gear she wore in "Lazy Scouts" from "LazyTown", put on her pack while Bean puts on her own scouting hat. At the same time, the following walked up to them, all ready to go: Joan, Angelita, Evan, Henry, Parker, Torrie, Stanley, Sunspot, Budfire, Fuzzle, Easy, Russell, Cody, Franco, Alys, Green Gene, Big Blu, Mustard and Patrick Monster.)

The more we play together, the happier we'll be

(Sportacus got his camping gear ready with Shiloh at his side.)

Sportacus: Ready, Shiloh?

Shiloh: Ready, Sportacus! Can't wait to go with Stephanie!

(Then the two got ready to jump off the blimp to head to Avenue Q.)

ALL:

The more we dance together, together, together

The more we dance together, the happier we'll be

'Cause your friends are my friends and my friends are your friends

(As the song continues, Verne is shown packing a book while Scotty is shown packing his teddy bear. Trekkie Monster is shown packing a magazine that he found and Lucy and Julian are packing some batteries. Brenda is packing a GPS tracker and Cookie Marshal, Dorito Monster and Pot Cookie Monster are packing a bag full of cookies, doritos and pot cookies.

The more we get together, the happier we'll be

'Cause your friends are my friends and my friends are your friends

The more we get together, the happier we'll be

The more we get together, the happier we'll be

The more we get together, the happier we'll be

(At the bus stop, Princeton, Kate Monster, Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran and Lizzie arrive and saw all their friends.)

Kate Monster: Oh! Hello, everyone!

All: Hi!

Princeton: Are you all ready for the big camping trip?

All: Yeah!

Ginger: I was wondering, What did you all bring for our trip?

Evan the Troll: Well, I brought my trusty lute for singing songs around the campfire!

Stephanie: I brought some snacks in case any one of us gets hungry!

Bogge: Speaking of snacks...

Quagmire: Guess what we brought?

Both: Peanut butter sandwiches! Ta-da!

Kate Monster: Uh, I don't think we'll be eating these during the campfire.

Bogge and Quagmire: Awwwww.

Quagmire: But can we eat these later?

Princeton: Uh, okay.

Bogge and Quagmire: (As they give each other a high five) Yeah!

(The Bad Idea Bears pop up.)

The Bad Idea Bears: Hey, guys!

Kate Monster: Well, we're all going camping and we brought a whole lot of stuff.

Annie Bear: Oh! That sounds like fun!

Fizzie Bear: (sees the GPS device that Kieran has) What's that you got there?

Kieran: Oh! You mean this? This is a GPS device. I'm using that in case we go hiking.

Fizzie Bear: Eh, looks like garbage to me. Throw it, Fuzzie!

(Fuzzie Bear throws the GPS device away as a crash is heard from off-screen.)

Kieran: (Shocked) Hey! How could you?

The Bad Idea Bears: Yay! (Laughs)

Manny Bear: Can we all come camping with you guys?

Avenue Q Gang: NO!!!!!!!!

(The Bad Idea Bears get sad)

Fuzzie Bear: We're sad now.

Annie Bear: Come on, guys.

(The Bad Idea Bears walk away crying)

Ginger: Looks like these bears need to be taught a lesson.

Brad Paisley: Hey there, y'all!

(The Avenue Q Gang all turn and saw Brad Paisley)

All: Oh, my god! It's Brad Paisley!

Brad Paisley: Yes I am!

Cinderelmo: Mr. Paisley, what are you doing here?

Brad Paisley: Well, Cinderelmo, Since I heard you and your friends are going camping, I thought I might drop by and sing a little song for ya.

Princeton: That would sound great!

Kate Monster: We would love to hear you sing!

Brad Paisley: Okay!

Sherman the Frog: Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Brad Paisley! (Waves his arms) Yayyyyyy!

Nicky: I'm coming! Wait for me!

ALL:

They'll all come out to greet us when we come!

(Everyone arrives at the camping spot and Princeton blows a whistle)

Nicky: Uh, Princeton? There’s nothing here. What do we do?

Princeton: Well, all we need are the bare necessities. Come on! I’ll show you!

All: Let’s go!

(Stephanie, Shiloh, Bean, Olive Hoover and Matilda Honey are in the woods looking for wood for the campfire.)

STEPHANIE, SHILOH, BEAN, OLIVE HOOVER AND MATILDA HONEY:

Look for the bare necessities, the simple bare necessities

Forget about your worries and your strife (Stephanie: Come on, guys!)

I mean the bare necessities are Mother Nature's recipes (Bean: Uh-huh! That's two!)

That bring the bare necessities of life (Olive Hoover: One more!) (Shiloh: Yeah!)

(Meanwhile, Princeton, Kate Monster, Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran and Lizzie are looking for rocks)

GINGER:

Wherever I wander, wherever I roam

KIERAN:

I couldn't be fonder of my big home

FIZZIE BEAR:

The bees are buzzin' in the trees

To make some honey just for me

FUZZIE BEAR:

If you look under the rocks and plants

And take a glance at the fancy ants and maybe try a few

FIZZIE AND FUZZIE:

(Harmonizing)

PRINCETON, KATE MONSTER, CINDERELMO, GINGER, KIERAN, LIZZIE AND THE BAD IDEA BEARS:

The bare necessities of life will come to you!

(Will come to you)

(Fuzzie Bear gets stuck behind a tree and Fizzie Bear laughs)

(At the campgrounds, the rest of the Avenue Q Gang are grabbing their camping supplies as Bubbasaur pitches up a tent and hums along to the tune. Mr. Knack is pulling his cart through the area.)

Mr. Knack: Oh, I can not wait to do some trading while we're all out camping!

Allegra: Look, everybody!

(Princeton, Kate Monster, Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran, Lizzie, Stephanie, Shiloh, Bean, Olive Hoover and Matilda Honey return with the rocks and the wood for the campfire.)

(Fritz heads into the tent but he deflates it and throws a tantrum and everyone laughs at him.)

(Later, Princeton is looking at some signs that say hiking, bicycling, fishing, canoeing and petting zoo.)

Princeton: Hmm, Oh, hey, Kate! Come look at those signs!

Kate Monster: (Reading the signs) Hiking, bicycling, fishing, canoeing, petting zoo.

(The Avenue Q Gang walk up and saw the signs as well.)

Lizzie: Hi, Mom! Hi, Dad!

Well, I went down a hill about 12 o’clock

Ran right back, I got me a pole

I’m a goin’ down to the fishin’ hole and you can come fishin’ all the time

Have you been a fishin’ all the time?

I’m a going fishin’ too

Well you bet your life your lovin’ wife will catch more fish than you

Any fish bite if you got good bait

Here’s a little story I would like to relate

So come on, baby, Come on, gal

I’m a goin’ fishin’, yes I’m goin’ fishin’

And you can come fishin’ too!

(Manny uses his fishing rod and waits until a fish caught on the net.)

Manny Bear: Annie! I think I caught something!

Annie Bear: Really?

(Manny pulls the fish out of the water with his fishing rod.)

Both: Yay!

Annie Bear: Come on, Manny! Let’s dig in!

(Annie and Manny eat the fish in one bite and both burp.)

ANNIE AND MANNY:

Well I went down the hill about one o’clock

Spied them catfish swimming around

I’m a goin’ down to the fishin’ hole

And live in the country instead of the town

Have you been a fishin’ all the time?

I’m a going fishin’ too

Well you bet your life your lovin’ wife will catch more fish than you

Any fish bite if you got good bait

Here’s a little story I would like to relate

I had a little rooster by the ole barn gate

And that little rooster was my playmate

And that little rooster said “Cock a doodle doo”

(Later on, Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran and Lizzie are walking until they saw a Labrador Retriever puppy playing with a chew toy.)

(The puppy sees his tail wagging and playfully chases after it while barking.)

Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran and Lizzie: Awww!

Kieran: It's adorable!

Ginger: And so cute at the same time!

Cinderelmo: Cinderelmo has an idea! We should adopt the puppy!

Ginger: Cinderelmo, we're too young to adopt a puppy.

Lizzie: Yeah. Maybe we should ask mom and dad.

Kieran: And we know that dogs need lots of love and care and attention.

(They then see an instructor taking care of the puppy.)

Cinderelmo: Maybe we should ask that girl over there!

Ginger: That sounds great, Cinderelmo!

Kieran: Yeah, sounds okay to me.

Lizzie: Let's do that.

Ginger: Excuse us, ma'am. Can we adopt this puppy?

Instructor: Oh, sure! This little one's been waiting for someone to adopt him!

(The instructor puts the puppy inside the cage.)

Instructor: Here you go.

Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran and Lizzie: Thank you!

Instructor: You're welcome.

Kieran: I cannot believe it, you guys! We got ourselves a puppy!

(The kids cheer)

Cinderelmo: Oh! Cinderelmo thinks we should give it a name. Do you have one, Ginger?

Ginger: I think we should name him "Mambo".

Lizzie: That sounds like a great name, Ginger. (to Mambo) Do you like that name, Mambo?

(Mambo barks happily)

Kieran: Then Mambo it is!

Cinderelmo: (to the rest of the kids) Hey, everybody! Come and meet Mambo the Puppy! (looks around) Uh, guys? Where is everybody?

Ginger: Hey! I think they're all on the ferry to see some more animals!

Lizzie: And we're all on a big camping trip! You're gonna love it, Mambo!

(Mambo barks)

Kieran: Come on!

(Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran and Lizzie then head on the ferry boat with Lizzie holding Mambo.)

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra

Come join my happy song

Shiloh: Hey, Stephanie! Look at the turtle!

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra

From every Greenwood tree

High overhead, the skylarks wing they never rest at home

But just like me they love to sing as o'er the world we roam

Oh, may I go a-wandering until the day I die

Oh, may I always laugh and sing beneath the clear blue sky

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra

Beneath the clear blue sky

Batly: (Looking terrifed as he sees a snake) Um, hi, Mr. Snake.

Rue: Oh, he's lovely! (laughs and barks)

(After seeing the birds, the kids head back to the ferry boat.)

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra

Rod: (as he has a tug-of-war with the Bad Idea Bears for the food) Hey! Give me that! Let go of this!

(The food fell off the table)

Rod: Oh, what a mess!

The Bad Idea Bears: Yay! (laughs)

(The Bad Idea Bears leave and Rod throws a temper tantrum.)

(Meanwhile, Princeton and Kate Monster are canoeing until they see Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran and Lizzie coming.)

Ginger: (off-screen) Hi, mom! Hi, dad!

Princeton and Kate Monster: Huh?

Kate Monster: Oh! Hi, kids!

Cinderelmo: We got a puppy!

Princeton: Wait. You kids have a puppy?

Ginger: Yeah!

Kate Monster: What's his name?

Lizzie: His name is Mambo and he is a Laborador retriever puppy.

(Mambo barks and licks Lizzie's face.)

Lizzie: (giggles)

Cinderelmo: We got Mambo at the animal fair.

Kieran: And guess what? We adopted him!

Ginger: Can we keep him, please?

Princeton: Sure.

Kate Monster: I agree. I hope Mambo will like our apartment.

Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran and Lizzie: (Cheering)

(Mambo barks happily)

(All of a sudden, a trumpet blare is heard as Princeton, Kate Monster, Cinderelmo, Ginger, Kieran, Lizzie and Mambo look around. The rest of the Avenue Q Gang heard the sound as well.)

(The final event is running. The Avenue Q Gang are all running in slow motion as they all yell.)

The Bad Idea Bears: Keep running!

(Everyone fell down together at once. But a whistle blows and they all get back up and ran and regular speed. At last, everyone ran to the finish line and cheer.)

CINDERELMO, GINGER, KIERAN AND LIZZIE:

Jeepers creepers, where’d you get those peepers?

Jeepers creepers, where’d you get those eyes?

KIERAN AND TORRIE:

While we love each other let blue skies be our cover and

When it rains we’ll laugh at the weather

(Bumba and Derango change their costumes into clouds)

KIERAN:

And if you’re good

TORRIE: (spoken)

What then?

KIERAN:

I’ll search for wood

TORRIE: (spoken)

Oh!

KIERAN:

So you can cook

(Rod hands Torrie a pot)

Torrie: (giggles)

KIERAN:

While I stand looking!

BOTH:

Beans would get no keener reception in a beanery

Bless our mountain greenery home!

(Nicky watches the act from backstage holding the pots but then falls.)

Kieran: Sell it!

Torrie: Yeah!

(Kieran, Torrie and the Reppies start dancing)

Torrie: Alright!

Kieran: Uh-huh!

(Magellan is backstage)

Kieran: Here we go!

Torrie: Whoo!

(Kieran and Torrie push open the curtains.)

Torrie: Thank you, everyone! Come on, Reppies take a bow! (laughs)

(The Avenue Q Gang are still applauding and cheering.)

(Bobble is backstage closing the curtains.)

Bobble: That was good! Hey, now it’s time for the campfire!

Blue Guy: Hey, where’s Yellow Guy?

Green Duck Guy: Oh, he’s just busy setting up the campfire.

Red Guy: He'll get it somehow.

(That night, Yellow Guy is at the campgrounds getting ready to start the campfire.)

Yellow Guy: (reading a book) "To make the campfire, use some matches and rub them until you see fire." That sounds easy.

(Yellow Guy grabs some matches and begins striking them. They didn't work at first. Yellow Guy then does it again for a while until he was about to give up.)

Yellow Guy: (groans) Stupid book! Now I’ll never start a campfire!

(Yellow Guy is about to throw the matches away, but Kieran stops him.)

Kieran: Hey! Not so fast!

(Yellow Guy sees Kieran, Lewis Lion, Fritz and Greg the Bunny.)

Yellow Guy: I was trying to start the campfire.

Kieran: But what you did was a very bad thing! (to Lewis, Fritz and Greg) Isn’t that right, guys?

Lewis Lion, Fritz and Greg the Bunny: (Agreeing)

Yellow Guy: What did I do wrong?

Kieran: You almost threw away the matches out all the way to the forest that will start a forest fire!

Yellow Guy: I did?

Kieran: Yeah! If you threw the matches away, all the animals in the forest will get hurt. So remember, do not throw matches into the woods. Or else you could start a forest fire.

(Smokey the Bear comes in.)

Smokey: That's right, Kieran.

Kieran: Oh, my god! It's Smokey the Bear!

Smokey: Kieran, I'm so proud of you for stopping Yellow Guy from starting a forest fire. Forest fires are very dangerous and can destroy lots of trees, plants and animals. And I have a song to explain about that.

LEWIS LION:

One day, these rats were playing in the woods

FRITZ:

One lit some matches and that's no good

GREG THE BUNNY:

Listen to Smokey before you give it a try...

SMOKEY: (SPOKEN)

Only you!

KIERAN, LEWIS LION, FRITZ AND GREG THE BUNNY:

Don't play with matches, don't play with fire!

KIERAN:

(Fire)

KIERAN, LEWIS LION, FRITZ AND GREG THE BUNNY:

'Cause there's nothing very funny bout a freaked out bunny

Nothing very nice

FRITZ:

About homeless mice

KIERAN, LEWIS LION, FRITZ AND GREG THE BUNNY:

So if a gorgeous forest is what you desire

Don't play with matches, don't play with fire

SMOKEY: (SPOKEN)

Only you can prevent wild fires.

KIERAN, LEWIS LION, FRITZ AND GREG THE BUNNY:

So if a gorgeous forest is what you desire

Don't play with matches, don't play with fire

SMOKEY: (SPOKEN)

Only you.

KIERAN, LEWIS LION, FRITZ AND GREG THE BUNNY:

Fire!

(After the song ends, the campfire is ready.)

Yellow Guy: Oh, boy! The campfire's all set up! Thanks, Smokey!

Smokey: You're welcome. (walks off)

Lewis Lion: Bye, Smokey!

Kieran: (calling out) Hey, everybody! The campfire's all ready!

(The Avenue Q Gang heard Kieran's shouting and they all gather around the campfire.)

Stephanie: So, what should we do now?

Riff: (holds a flashlight as he shines it onto his face) How about we tell some scary campfire stories? Ooooooo!

Avenue Q Gang: (yelps)

Riff: Huh, works every time.

Lizzie: Way too scary for me!

Kate Monster: I know! We'll all sing some campfire songs and roast marshmallows! Ready, everybody?

All: Ready!
