Curiosity Arranges an Assembly and Assembles an Arrangement
WeatherViolet27 September 2010
First, in the Country, the Man with the Yellow Hat cannot drive fast enough for Curious George, to return to play with Bill's Bunnies, but upon their arrival, Bill loads up Bill's Bunnies: Fuzzy, Whitey, Brownie, Spotty, Black Ears, Cotton Tail, and Herbert Nenninger, into a cage to place upon his Mother's station wagon to drive off to visit with Bill's Grandmother.

And, after Bill tells Curious George, "See-ya!," Curious George accompanies the Man with the Yellow Hat to Ada and Luke's General Store, at which Curious George purchases a large bag of bird seed because those small boxes empty too quickly for his purpose.

Now, back in the yard at the Country residence, Curious George eagerly fills a birdhouse with a scoop of birdseed, for three birds to enter to enjoy, but Jumpy Squirrel climbs onto the trunk of the tree to spring over into the birdhouse to hoard the birdseed, leaving the birdhouse empty. But Curious George cannot seem to figure where all of the birdseed has gone, and so he refills it with a second scoop, which soon ends up missing, as Jumpy Squirrel again returns to empty the feeder.

Well, Curious George again refills the birdhouse for a third time, and the next morning, Curious George eagerly peers from his upstairs window, but only to watch Jumpy Squirrel's chasing away the birds, and so Curious George chases away Jumpy Squirrel and moves the bird feeder far from the tree trunk onto a long limb, which doesn't work, and then onto the laundry line accessible from his bedroom window.

But Jumpy Squirrel is able to climb the exterior of the residence onto Curious George's window ledge and onto the clothes line to hoard additional birdseed, and Curious George stands at odds with Jumpy Squirrel about such activity, especially after the Man with the Yellow Hat goes to Renkins' Farm, and Curious George remains at hand to try to think of another way to prevent Jumpy Squirrel from removing the birdseed from the birdhouse intended for the three hungry birds.

So, Curious George lowers the feeder onto the tree, to scrutinize closely so that Jumpy Squirrel is not able to leap onto the birdhouse, but he tries anyway, and causes the birdhouse to fall to the ground. But does Curious George know that Jumpy Squirrel is sharing the spoils with his three squirrel friends? And what could Curious George do to convince Jumpy Squirrel that he intends the birdseed to be served "For the Birds?"

Next, in the City, after Archaeologist Doctor Raj Desai sends Professor Wiseman a collection of dinosaur bones from his museum to assemble beside the one already on display at the Museum of Science, Professor Wiseman invites the Man with the Yellow Hat to assist her in constructing the new addition to the exhibit, and the Man with the Yellow Hat invites Curious George in case she needs a monkey, and Curious George brings along a toy wooden airplane in case she doesn't need a monkey.

Well, along the way to the Museum of Science, Curious George carries his toy wooden airplane in case he would have nothing to do except to watch Professor Wiseman and the Man with the Yellow Hat, and then he encounters Gnocchi, Chef Pisghetti's pet Cat, who follows Curious George inside to play.

Now, Professor Wiseman nearly completes assembling the dinosaur skeleton, according to Doctor Raj Desai's framework instructions, and after the Man with the Yellow Hat helps, she invites the Man with the Yellow Hat to lunch with the arriving Doctor Raj Desai, but Curious George and Gnocchi decide to run outside the Museum of Science, to play with the wooden toy airplane, instead of feasting upon salad and dessert.

But when the wooden toy airplane enters an open window and lands upon the exhibit, between the skulls of the two dinosaurs on display, and when Curious George and Gnocchi return inside and decide to climb onto the skeletons to retrieve it, what do you think might go wrong?

Well, somehow Professor Wiseman and the Man with the Yellow hat must sense that Curious George and Gnocchi may have made a mess of things, so they detain Doctor Raj Desai in the dining room, and ask about his future plans, to which he replies that he has already discovered everything old and nothing new, and so there is no excitement left.

So, do you think that Doctor Raj Desai, Professor Wiseman and the Man with the Yellow Hat will discover something new and exciting once they return to the dinosaur exhibit, to learn of the exhibition re-created by Gnocchi, Chef Pisghetti's pet Cat, and "Curious George-Asaurus?"
