Narrator: It was a glorious, spring morning in Tarrytown, and at Tarrytown Airport... Narrator: Brenda Blue was doing one of her favorite things in all the world. Brenda: (picking up two more flower sets) Ahhh, these look perfect! (She sets them down one at a time.) Narrator: She wasd taking care of her beautiful spring flowers— (She sprays some on the end of this.)— and Jay Jay and Herky were helping. Herky: Hey, Br-r-renda, your-r-r flower-r-rs sure look pr-r-retty! Brenda: Well, thank you very much, Herky. Jay Jay: Yeah, and they have lots of colors. I see red...and blue...and yellow...and— (Something catches his eye.) Huh? Brenda, Herky! Look what I found! Brenda: What is it, Jay Jay? (She eyes the nearest group.) Jay Jay: Look! Look at this beautiful worm! Brenda: (from o.s.) Oh, it does look like a worm, but it's not—it's a caterpillar. Jay Jay: (from o.s.) Caterpillar? Brenda: (from o.s.) Uh-uh. Jay Jay: (from o.s.) Hmm. It looks like a nice little worm to me. Brenda: (from o.s.) Well, it won't look like a worm for long. (Pull back to frame them.) In fact, one day, it'll be able to fly right alongside you. Jay Jay: But Brenda, everyone knows that worms can't fly. (chuckles) They don't have wings. Brenda: Well, this caterpillar will. When it grows up. (Close-up of the caterpillar.) Jay Jay: (from o.s., snarkly) How could you ever fly? Brenda: Oops! Jay Jay, oh...look at the time, it's getting really late. You've got to hurry, or you'll be late for your training flight with Big Jake! Jay Jay: Yikes! Big Jake: Uh...Jay Jay, I've been thinking about how our training flights have been going. Jay Jay: Yeah? Big Jake: And I've come to an important decision. Jay Jay: Big Jake, I'm sorry I'm late, you see— Big Jake: Whoawhoawhoa! Uh...I was...thinking you might be ready, uh...for a route of your own. Jay Jay: (gasps) What? I am? Big Jake: (from o.s.) Yup. Jay Jay: My very own route?! Big Jake: Your very own route. Jay Jay: Wow, that would be great! Big Jake: Yeah, I suggested it to Brenda, and she agrees. You've been such a good listener, that you've learned enough to make your own deliveries. Jay Jay: (pauses) Hey, wow! Thanks, Big Jake, I won't let'cha down! Big Jake: (chuckling) I know you will, Jay Jay. Let's go! Big Jake: And now, onward to our destination, Jay Jay: Sandy Landing. Narrator: Sandy Landing was where all the big boats docked. On his new route— (Head-on view of the planes.) —Jay Jay would be delivering supplies to a big cargo ship. Narrator: And the captain of that ship was none other than Captain Wentworth. Wentworth: Wow, look what the wind blew in! If it isn't my old pal, Big Jake. (Close-up.) You're lookin' shipshape as usual. Big Jake: (chuckles) Thank you, Captain Wentworth. It's good to see you, too. Wentworth: (to Jay Jay) And you must be Jay Jay—Big Jake has told me all about you. Jay Jay: I've heard a lot about you too, Captain Wentworth. I'm going to be delivering your supplies. Wentworth: That's what I hear. And you know what? Something tells me you and I are gonna become good friends. Narrator: Well, Jay Jay thought this was a good beginning, indeed. Narrator: He planned to keep listening carefully, and become a good delivery plane. Narrator: And each afternoon, Jay Jay went to see the caterpillar, and tried to understand how God would help it fly. (Brenda joins him, holding a shovel and plant spray.) Brenda: Hi, Jay Jay. Jay Jay: How's the caterpillar today, Brenda? Brenda: Well...I think he's getting bigger. Jay Jay: (from o.s.) But I still don't see any wings. Brenda: (from o.s.) You will, Jay Jay. You will. Narrator: Jay Jay continued his training. And the harder he worked, the better he flew. Finally— (Big Jake joins.) —one day... Big Jake: Well, Jay Jay, Today's your last day of training. Jay Jay: (smiling) All right!! Narrator: Yes, tomorrow was going to be the big day—the first day that Jay Jay would fly his very own route all by himself. Narrator: That night, Jay Jay was so excited— (Close-up of him.) —he could hardly sleep. Narrator: The next morning, he was up before sunrise. Narrator: The little blue jet was eager to show everyone that he could handle his very own route. Narrator: He got to Sandy Landing just in time to see a beautiful sunrise. Jay Jay: Wow. This is the neatest place I've ever seen. I wonder what it looks like down on the beach...hey, maybe I'll go down there. After all, there's plenty of time before I have to meet with Captain Wentworth. Narrator: But Jay Jay's sleepless night and early flight had made him very, very tired. Narrator: Soon, he forgot about the delivery he had to make... Narrator: And he closed his eyes and fell fast asleep. Jay Jay: W-w-where am I? (Close-up, he pants.) Oh, no! Captain Wentworth! (pants) The delivery! My first day! Narrator: Jay Jay tried and tried and tried to start his engine, but it was waterlogged from the wet ocean air, and it simply wouldn't budge. Jay Jay: Oh no, I'm gonna be late! What am I gonna do, now?! Wentworth: Hmm... (looks at her watch) Hmm...I wonder where that nice, little Jay Jay is? He should've been here by now. I hope nothing's wrong. Well, he must've decided not to fly this route. (hands over mouth) Time to ship out! Anchors up! Narrator: Poor Jay Jay was stranded on the beach, and there was nothing he could do about about it. Jay Jay: Oh, I'm gonna be in so much trouble! Narrator: He should've stuck to his route and gone straight to the ship— (View of Jay Jay from the trees, his wings wilt.) —Now it was gone, and Jay Jay would have to tell Big Jake of his mistake. Jay Jay: Hey, what's this? Mr, Caterpillar's gone! Jay Jay: (from o.s.) Wonder where he went. Big Jake: (from o.s.) Well, hi there, Jay Jay. Big Jake: What are you doin'? Jay Jay: Oh, hi, Big Jake. I was just... (sighs) I was just lookin' for my friend, Mr. Caterpillar. Big Jake: (from o.s.) Jay Jay, your caterpillar friend isn't gone, he's right there, inside that cocoon. Jay Jay: (from o.s.) Hey, he must be hiding in there. Did you make a mistake too? (Wide shot of the two.) Can I hide in there with ya? Big Jake: Well now, what the matter, Jay Jay? Jay Jay: Oh, Big Jake, I blew it today—I fell asleep on the beach and...when I woke up, Captain Wentworth was sailing away! I wish I could hide away from everybody like Mr. Caterpillar. Big Jake: (from o.s.) Well, Jay Jay, I think you and the caterpillar are going through important changes that will help you both grow up. (Cut to Jay Jay.) Jay Jay: What do I have to do to grow up, Big Jake? (Cut to Big Jake.) Big Jake: Well, you're already doing it. Every day, God is helping you learn new things, sometimes even through your mistakes. (Back to Jay Jay on the start of the next line.) Jay Jay: (groans) I wish I could grow up faster. Big Jake: I think you're doin' just fine. Just to be sure to go to go to bed early tonight and get plenty of sleep—you have to be ready for your next run to Sandy Landing tomorrow. Jay Jay: (lighthearted) Huh? You mean, I'm still on the route? Even after what happened? Big Jake: That's right. You can learn from what happened today. Mistakes, they can help you grow and change. It's all part of "earning your wings". Kinda like what your friend the caterpillar is doing, right now. Jay Jay: (from o.s.) Really? Big Jake: (from o.s.) You bet. Narrator: And Jay Jay did learn. He handled the next delivery perfectly. (Wentworth waves; Jay Jay meets up with her.) And just as Captain Wentworth predicted, she and Jay Jay became friends. But that wasn't the only good thing. You see, God forgives us when we make mistakes and helps us do better. Narrator: Some days later, Jay Jay received a big surprise. (Jay Jay exits the hangar, joining them.) Big Jake: Nice job, Jay Jay. We're all very proud of you. Brenda: And today, because of all your hard work, we're happy to give you: your very first...Wings! Big Jake: Congratulations, Jay Jay, you've earned them. Jay Jay: (from o.s.) Wow. (Back to him.) I've earned my wings! Yippee!! (A big smile lights up his face.) Narrator: Yes, that was a wonderful surprise. Narrator: Now, Jay Jay could hardly wait to go see how God would help his friend the caterpillar, too. Narrator: And what do you know? God had turned him into a beautiful butterfly. Jay Jay: (from o.s., gasps) Wow, Brenda was right! You did grow wings, Mr. Caterpillar! (Widen to frame him; the butterfly takes flight.) Now, you're a butterfly! Hey, wait for me! I earned my wings, too! Jay Jay: Caterpillar, caterpillar Look at you, you're a big surprise You've got your wings And just like me, you can fly Jay Jay: You're a butterfly (Jay Jay voices a chuckle.) Butterfly Jay Jay: Caterpillar, caterpillar Growin' up before my eyes We've got our wings Let's celebrate and fly Jay Jay: Into the skies (They stop; Jay Jay chuckles.) Butterfly Jay Jay: Come fly Come fly Jay Jay: Come fly Come fly Jay Jay: Come fly
