COSMO’S ROOM (SFX) Knocking Rapid pounding is heard on the door of Cosmo’s room. He walks over and answers the door. Yatta stands before him outside the door, with her usual bubbly smile. Cosmo returns a nervous smile as he greets her. Cosmo: “Oh, hi, Yatta. Do you need some—” Yatta: “Hiya, Cosmo! Could you and Sprout help me bake a batch of cookies later!?” Cosmo: “Sure, I guess. Is there a special occasion?” Yatta: “Yup!!! For the circus! Not too many toons have been coming lately, so Looey suggested that we offer a treat if they come! Like COOKIES!” Cosmo: “Oh, I see. We can help you out tonight.” Yatta: “Thanks! See you later!!!” Yatta skips off Scene 2. INT. KITCHEN Scene cuts to later, in the kitchen. As Yatta waits in the kitchen, she snacks on some candy. The door suddenly opens, and Cosmo, followed by Sprout, stands outside the door. Yatta runs over. Yatta: “Yay! You guys are finally here!!!” Cosmo: “We’re not late, are we? How long have you been waiting?” Yatta grins mischievously Yatta: “Oh, not too long… Just all day.” Sprout: “Wait, you’ve been waiting for us all day!? Why’d you get here so early?” Yatta: “What can I say? I was excited!!!” Cosmo: “Oh well, let’s get to baking already.” The three walk over to the baking counter Cosmo: “Okay, let’s start baking. What kind of—” (SFX) Candy wrapper crinkling Cosmo: “Yatta, if you’re going to be baking in this kitchen, you can’t be eating at the same time…” Sprout: “Yeah, it’s kind of unsanitary. Maybe you should wash your hands. Oh, wait- You’re a piñata”. Yatta frowns Yatta: “Aw, come on, I’m almost done.” Cosmo sighs Cosmo: “Fine, but finish quickly, alright?” Yatta’s mouth is stuffed as she talks Yatta (mouth full): “Got it!” Silence fills the room, aside from Yatta munching on her candy Cosmo: (Checks non-existent watch) Sprout: (Crosses arms and stamps foot) Scene 3 Soon, Yatta takes her final gulp and is finally done Yatta: “Alright!!! I’m ready now!” Cosmo: “Great! Let’s start! What kind of cookies were you thinking?” Yatta: “I dunno! (Shrugs shoulders) What’s the easiest?” Sprout: “In my opinion, chocolate chip. If that could work.” Yatta: “Sounds good!!!” Cosmo calmly smiles Cosmo: “Now that we’ve got everything all figured out, let’s get to baking!” Yatta bounces up and down excitedly. Cosmo places a large recipe book from a bookshelf onto the counter. He flips through it and stops at a page with the recipe for chocolate chip cookies. Cosmo: “Let’s gather our ingredients first. Sprout, you get the flour, butter, and sugar. Yatta, you get the eggs, vanilla extract, and baking soda. I’ll get the salt and the chocolate chips.” They all run off in different directions Sprout and Cosmo quickly come back with the ingredients. Yatta comes dashing over with her hands full of eggs. She attempts to juggle them, but drops about five of them. Sprout: “What are you doing, Yatta!?” Cosmo: “Yatta! Stop!!! Why do you have so many eggs!?” Cosmo and Sprout run over to help Yatta: “Well, you didn’t tell me how many to get!” Cosmo: “Fair enough. Come on, let’s clean this up.” Sprout facepalms Sprout: “Sometimes I feel like you’re too nice, Cosmo.” Scene 4. Scene cuts to after they clean up Sprout: “Well, this is taking longer than it should.” Cosmo: “You’re right, Sprout, let’s get going!!!” They walk back over to the counter Cosmo: “First, we need to preheat the oven to 350 degrees.” Yatta: “Ooh, can I do this!?” Cosmo and Sprout glance at each other Sprout makes a slashing motion across his neck with his hand Cosmo: “Sorry, Yatta…” Yatta: “Please? Pretty please? I promise I won’t mess it up.” Sprout glares at Cosmo Cosmo: “Okay, fine! But be very careful, alright?” Yatta: “I will!!! You can count on me!” Yatta winks and hops over to the oven Yatta (quietly, in the background): “Aaalright, let's get this thing goin’! (SFX) Knob twisting Is that right? What’d he say, like, 450? Hopefully!” Cosmo and Sprout talk behind her back Sprout: “Cosmo, why’d you let her set the oven heat?” Cosmo: “Well, I don’t know, she seemed desperate.” Sprout: “You really need to learn to say no.” (story continuing in notes and credits)
Scene 5 Yatta: “I did it!!! Now what?” Cosmo: “Oh-Right! Next, we mix two sticks of butter and add sugar as they’re being mixed.” Yatta: “That sounds FUN!!!” Sprout grabs a large bowl and places it atop the counter Cosmo places two sticks of butter in the bowl. He grabs the mixer and eyes Yatta. Cosmo: “Yatta, I’m going to trust you with this, ok? But be extremely careful!” Yatta’s eyes sparkle Yatta: “Cosmo, I promise you can trust me!!!” Cosmo hands the mixer to Yatta. Yatta switches it on and starts mixing slowly. Yatta: “See? I got this!!!” Cosmo: “You’re doing great! But remember to never—” (SFX) Sploosh Yatta lifts the mixer, splashing the batter everywhere Cosmo: “…Lift the mixer.” Sprout: “This. Is. Hopeless.” Scene 6 Scene cuts to later Cosmo: “Alright, now that we’ve finished the dough, roll it into about 12 balls.” Yatta: “Can we add candy instead of chocolate chips?” Cosmo: “Sure! I don’t see why not.” Sprout looks up Sprout: “Hm, that does sound kind of good, actually.” Yatta grabs some candy out of seemingly nowhere Sprout: “Wait-where’d you get that from??” Yatta: “That’s my little secret!” Yatta giggles as she unwraps a candy and sprinkles it into the mix. The three all roll cookie dough balls until there's enough Cosmo: “Hey, things are starting to look better!” Sprout smiles playfully Sprout: “… For once.” Cosmo: “Now, we just need to bake them.” Cosmo grabs the tray of cookies and places the tray in the oven. Scene 7 Scene cuts to after the cookies are done Sprout: (sniff sniff) “Why does it smell like that?” Cosmo: “Uh-oh.” They both slowly turn and look at Yatta, who smiles sheepishly Sprout puts his hands on his hips Sprout: “Yatta, what did you do!?” Yatta: “Ok, so maaaybe I set the temperature a little too high. No big deal, right?” Yatta giggles nervously Sprout: “What!? That is a big deal!!!” Sprout waves his hands in the air Sprout: “Come on, Cosmo, we need to take them out!” Sprout and Cosmo run to the oven. They open it, and smoke comes out. Sprout (with oven mitts) pulls the tray out to reveal semi-burnt cookies. Yatta: “Oh… I guess they’re ‘extra crispy’ he-he…” The End Edit: I got the part!
