Pee-pee come out!

(The UPS truck pulls up in front of the house. Alex and Claire run to the front window.)
Alex (excited): The brown truck!
Mommy: Brown truck! Exciting!
Alex: It brought us something!
(Alex and Claire jump up and down at the window, squealing excitedly.)


Alex: Let's not play behind the curtains, Claire, because that’s dangerous.


Claire: Pee-pee come out! Uh go poop on the potty.

(Claire is sitting on the potty.)
Claire: No pee come out.
Daddy: Well, you can sit there for a little bit. You want a book?
Claire: Yeah.
Alex: I'll get it.
(Alex runs off.)
Daddy: Oh, Alex's gonna get you a book, isn't that nice?
Claire: Yeah. Nigh. Ay-yah.
(Alex returns with a book for Claire and a book for himself. He sits down and they each read.)

Claire: Uh 'nother book.
Daddy: Okay, I’ll go get you a book.
(Daddy goes to get Claire another book.)
Claire: Pee-pee come out!
Alex: Pee-pee came out!
(Daddy returns to find Claire peeing in the potty! What a big girl!)

Claire: Uh happy now.


Alex: Does Dora pee on the potty? Does Science Kid pee on the potty, everyone on TV too?
