The Story of the Treasure

This is how the story begins in Noby Ran Away from Home: The Musical.

 Potty: Patchy, Patchy, the kids are here. [flushes the toilet]

Patchy: WAH!!! [opens the curtain in panic] Hot! Hot! Hot! Potty, don't you know this is Patchy private time?[looks at the camera] Oh, hello! Dahh! [covers himself with the curtain] What are you all doing here?

Potty: They're here to see Weekenders find National Treasure. Brawk!

Patchy: But I haven't got Weekenders find National Treasure, because I... well, I lost it! [starts to cry]

Children: [off-screen] No, Patchy! Please! Don't say that, Patchy! Please!

Patchy: But it is! It's lost and I have no idea where it is, so it's best if you forget all about Tino Tonitini.

Voice: Remembering, Tino Tonitini.

[A music video plays with Tonitini]

Audience: [clapping]

Patchy: I don't believe I lost "Weekenders find National Treasure". [screws in his peg leg] I never lose anything.

Potty: What about your leg?

Patchy: Well, yeah, but...

Potty: And your eye.

Patchy: Well, the eye, I...

Potty: And your hand.

[shoos Potty away] Hmm... if only I had a map to tell me where "Weekenders find National Treasure" is. [a screeching car sounds and a brick flies through the window and hits Potty; he mutters gibberish and then falls over]

[grabs a black boot out of a bin of umbrellas and screws it on his wooden leg while limping out the door; it now functions like a normal leg] Come on, Potty! Ah! Times a-wastin'! [runs down the steps, along with Potty]

[looks up at a store by that name; walks next to a tree] Half a league to the forked tree. [looks up at a tree with plastic forks growing on it] Oh! [stands somewhere else, looking at the map] Now all that's left is... Huh?! The seven trials of monkey lagoon?! [lowers the map and sees a playground full of children] Merciful Neptune. Only for Tino. Only for Tino!!![runs into the playground; rides back and forth on a small green horse] '''AHHHHH!!! '''Whoa!!! [goes up and down on a see-saw] Whoa!!! Whoa! [slides down a slide with his hands up] YAHHHHH!!! [hits the ground] Ow! [gets spun around on a merry-go-round] '''AHHHHH!!! AHHHHHHHHH!!! AHHHH!!!' [slowly climbs on the monkey bars while a little kid punches him in the back]'' Ahh... Ahh... Ah! [inside a giant climbing thing while a group of kids laugh at him] '''AHHHHH!!! AHHHH!!! [gets pushed on the swing by a little girl] AHHHHH!!! DAHHH!!!' [the swing he was on returns with only a hook attached to it; the little girl stares at it, confused; cuts to Patchy digging in the sand]'' We made it! We survived the trials! Oh, I'm really gonna dig this movie! [laughs] Dig it, get it?[laughs some more]

[a man in a construction hat sits in the chest, holding a tape; Patchy takes it; the man cups his hands] I don't know what it means either. [slams the top of the chest on the man] But I got what I came for! Come on Potty, time's a-wastin'. [runs off, jumping around and shouting excitedly again; runs into his house, still excited, and holds the tape up] Yeah!!! Popcorn. [slams a bag of popcorn down on the table] Soda. [puts a cup of soda on the table] Pickled garlic! [puts a jar of pickled garlic down on the table, next to the other things; runs and sits down] Potty, hit the remote!
