TIMMY mills about with a group of KIDS, all wearing CHOMPY THE
GOAT SHIRTS and HATS. Many of them are drinking SODAS. Everyone
is excited.
1 KIDS
Chompy! Chompy! Chompy!
ON TIMMY
2 TIMMY
Chompy! Chompy! Chompy!
3 WANDA
Hey Timmy?
4 COSMO
What’s a Chompy? Does it hurt?
5 TIMMY
Chompy’s a goat! He’s Dimmsdale’s town
hero and mascot!
6 VICKY
Move it ya’ Creetons!
8 VICKY
One side, Parasites!
9 VICKY
Ecch! I can’t believe your parents made me
take you on this stupid tour of City Hall.
Boooring!
10 TIMMY
Hey, they’re paying you, aren’t they? Besides,
it’s Chompy! I can’t learn enough about
Chompy!
11 VICKY

12 TIMMY
EEP!
13 VICKY
“undies” plus “gravity” equals wedgie!
15 MAYOR
Heh heh! Oh, you kids and your goat. I’m the
Mayor! Doesn’t anyone want to hear about
my accomplishments?
ON KIDS
16 MAYOR
I hate not being the goat.
(embittered beat)
Let’s continue the tour, with a walk through
the Hall of Goaty Greatness.
17 MAYOR
It was Chompy who pulled a cart of children
from a collapsing day care center. And then
changed their diapers! And all without
opposable thumbs!
Next painting: CHOMPY sits in a LAB, wearing a LAB COAT and holding
TEST TUBES.
19 MAYOR

20 TIMMY
Um... Wasn’t that Jonas Salk?
21 MAYOR
Only if you believe those liars at the patent
office!
The tour group arrives a TV SCREEN: The mayor hits a BUTTON and
AN IMAGE flickers to life.
23 MAYOR
And, Chompy! Whose quick thinking saved our
town from a raging fire!
CHOMPY runs in and knocks the cow onto the fire, extinguishing it.
24 COW
Moooo…
25 CHOMPY
(goatty laughs)
27 MAYOR
But, you know... all that hero-ing was
dangerous! We have flunkies for that now!
Which is why we keep him safe and sound at
City Hall!
28 MAYOR
And now... behold... the living glory that is
Chompy, the Goat!
29 KIDS
OOOooooooOOOOOOOOO!
30 TIMMY
Whoah!
31 WANDA
That’s him?
32 COSMO
What’s the big deal?! He’s just a smelly, old
goat!
33 KIDS
Ptptptpthhhbbbb!
They wheel around and stare at Timmy. The Cosmo and Wanda
balloons look at each other, “pop” and begin zipping around wildly as
they deflate.
34 MAYOR
Who said that? Whoever said that, say
“Eeeep!”
35 TIMMY
EEEEEP! (recovers) ooooh.
36 MAYOR
HOW DARE YOU MINIMIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF
CHOMPY! The rest of you can head off to the
Chompy-the-Goat-gift-shop, because it looks
like somebody needs a little alone time with
our goat hero.
37 KIDS (WALLA)
We want alone time! Pick me! Me!
38 MAYOR
No, no...run along now good, thoughtful, goat-
appreciating children.
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 6
39 VICKY
Ha! See ya, twerp!
40 MAYOR
Go. Beg Chompy’s forgiveness.
41 TIMMY
Nice goin’ on the “smelly old goat” comment,
Cosmo.
42 COSMO
I was right on the money... except for the
smelly and old parts!
43 WANDA
For a town hero, he sure looks sad. You think
he likes it in there?
44 TIMMY
I don’t know. I wish I could see what he was
thinking.
45 COSMO
One “Goat mind reading power” coming up!
They wave their wands and POOF! Timmy’s head radiates those little
“AQUAMAN FISH TELEPATHY RINGS” (complete with sound effects.)
46 WANDA
Aww... goat love!
47 COSMO
They say it’s the most honest love there is!
48 TIMMY
All Chompy wants is to be free! To run and
frolic and meet girl goats!
49 COSMO
Who doesn’t want that?
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 7
50 COSMO
Whoooooaaaah!!
51 TIMMY
I wish Chompy could be free to live anywhere
his heart desires!
52 CHOMPY
(A bleat that sounds like “thank you”)
53 TIMMY
You’re welcome!
Chompy licks Timmy happily. Cosmo and Wanda wave their wands
and POOF! Chompy’s gone!
54 VICKY (O.S.)
Hey, Twerp!
Cosmo and Wanda poof away. Vicky, wearing even more goat stuff,
steps into the pen.
55 VICKY
Time to go! But first...
Vicky gives Timmy the mother of all wedgies, lodging his underwear
over his head. It looks as though he’s wearing a super hero mask.
56 TIMMY
EEEEEEEP!
57 VICKY
Hahahahahahahaha!
Timmy, having problems seeing with his undies over his head, flails
around and knocks Vicky to the ground. He lands on top of her.
58 VICKY
Get off me, you dork!
59 MAYOR
Smelly old goat, can you believe it-- Chompy’s
gone!!!
60 GUARD

61 MAYOR
And that masked hero captured the goat-
napper!
62 VICKY
Goat-napper? No, I...
63 TIMMY
Ow!
64 GUARD 2
Good work, Underwear-Over-Your-Head Lad!
65 TIMMY
Wait-hold on (struggle sounds) gasp! (relieved)
Ahhhh…
66 MAYOR
It’s you! The boy who didn’t understand the
relevance of Chompy!
67 TIMMY
But...
68 MAYOR
I know. You’re crushed, because you couldn’t
stop the goat-napper before she handed our
beloved goat over to her team of terrorist,
goat-taking cohorts!
69 VICKY
What? That’s the stupidest...
70 MAYOR
Take her away!
71 VICKY
Hey! Noooo.
The mayor and guards exit with Vicky in tow. Cosmo and Wanda run
up to Timmy as mice.
72 TIMMY
WOW! Vicky’s getting blamed for what I did!
(beat)
Cool!
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 9
73 WANDA
Don’t you think you should say something?
74 TIMMY
Well... maybe... I mean, I should tell the truth...
75 MAYOR
New town hero, Timmy? Can Miss Dimmsdale
give you a ride home in this shiny, new
hovercraft?
76 TIMMY
I don’t know. You see, the truth is, Vicky didn’t
really take the...
The mayor holds up a pair of SHINY CAR KEYS. Timmy’s eyes widen.
77 MAYOR
...And once you get home, can she give you
the shiny new hovercraft?
78 TIMMY
...ooo... shiny...
79 WANDA
Timmy’s not old enough to drive!
80 MAYOR (O.S.)
...And here’s your special “Ten and under,
Town Hero, driver’s license!”
81 COSMO
I call shotgun!
DISSOLVE TO:
82 COSMO
How come we have to be pink flamingos? Why
can’t we be green?
83 WANDA
‘Cause we just can’t.
The Hovercraft craft flips end over end into frame, landing hard. The
doors open, revealing Timmy, in the driver’s seat and Ms. Dimmsdale
in the passenger. THEY ARE FINE.
84 TIMMY
Sorry about the hovercraft, Ms. Dimmsdale!
85 MS. DIMMSDALE
That’s okay, Timmy! You’ve got “Town Hero
Hovercraft Insurance!”
86 TIMMY FAN 1
Hey look! It’s Town Hero, Timmy AKA
Underwear- Over-His-Head-Lad!
87 TIMMY FAN 2
Let’s rip off his clothes and auction them on
the internet!
The kids start after Timmy. He and his two, flamingo pals, run to the
house as we...
CUT TO:
Timmy enters and slams the door. The crowd of kids pushes from the
other side, screaming for Timmy as though he were a Beatle. Timmy
finally shoves the door shut.
88 KIDS
Timmy! YAY! Timmy!!
89 TIMMY
(panting) Whew!
He turns, revealing MOM and DAD, ALSO wearing underwear over their
heads.
90 TIMMY
(panting)
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 11
91 MOM
Happy birthday, Timmy!
92 TIMMY
It’s not my birthday.
93 DAD
Every day’s your birthday when you stop a
goat-napper... Hero!
Mom and Dad dump a ton of PRESENTS on Timmy, along with a gooey,
birthday CAKE.
DISSOLVE TO:
Cosmo and Wanda float next to Timmy, eating cake. They all watch
T.V.
94 COSMO
Thanks for sharing your hero cake with us,
Timmy!
95 WANDA
Even though you’re not really a hero and don’t
deserve the cake.
96 TIMMY
Yeah, but Vicky’s always mean to me. For no
reason... She’s finally getting what she
deserves, right?
97 TIMMY
Uh… Besides, my feeling guilty about that
doesn’t change how this cake tastes...
98 TIMMY
Heh...Although you’d think it would.
99 COSMO
(spittake) ON TV! They’re talking about
Timmy!
ON TV:

100 REPORTER
Mr. Mayor, has the goat-napper revealed the
whereabouts of Chompy yet?
101 MAYOR
No, but we’re giving her an increasingly bad
hair day until she talks!
102 VICKY
I’m telling you, I don’t know where the stupid
goat...
A guard rubs a BALLOON on the wall with one hand and taps her
lightly with the other. Her hair stands on end and settles into a
hideous frizz.
103 VICKY
HEY!!
CUT TO:
105 WANDA
Is that fair? After all, you’re the one who let
Chompy go!
106 TIMMY
I know. I’ll figure out a way to free her as soon
as this cake stops tasting good.
107 COSMO
(Chew, chew, swallow) Nope! Still tasty!
DISSOLVE TO:
108 TIMMY
(muttering in his sleep)
Vicky... not guilty... wish...
Timmy opens his eyes and reaches to turn on his light. CLICK! The
room brightens to reveal...
109 MONKEY
(monkey sounds)
110 TIMMY
Gasp! Argh!… YAAAGH! Yargh! Yargh!
111 TIMMY
Gotta be dreaming.
Timmy looks up and sees the monkey is bouncing up and down on his
head.
112 TIMMY
AAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!
113 MONKEY
(monkey sounds)
115 TIMMY
Aaaahhh!
117 TIMMY
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 14
Ooof!
118 WANDA
Timmy! Thank Heavens you’re awake!
119 TIMMY
What is all this?
120 WANDA
You’ve been wishing in your sleep!
And you know the rules: You wish it, we grant
it!
121 TIMMY
Well, I wish this stuff was…
Timmy gets sucked down into a SEA OF MUK before he can finish his
wish. A bubble rises from the sea, floats in the air and pops. Out of
the bubble, comes Timmy’s voice.
POOF! All gone. Cosmo and Wanda huff and puff, exhausted.
123 TIMMY
Okay. I probably ate a little too much hero
cake... Let’s just all go back to sleep...
DISSOLVE TO:
124 TIMMY
(muttering)
Wish... goat... Vicky... GASP!
WIDEN TO REVEAL the room, filled with MORE SURREAL STUFF. Wanda
slips on DNA as she runs from a THREE HEADED GOAT.
125 WANDA
(chase and slipping sounds)
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 15
126 GOAT
(angry goat sounds)
127 TIMMY
AAAA!!!!!!
(beat)
I don’t understand. Why would I wish for this
stuff?
128 WANDA
Maybe your dreams are trying to tell you
something.
129 COSMO
Yeah! That you are one twisted, little, pretzel
stick!
130 COSMO
Help!
131 TIMMY
Jeez! Maybe I need to see a shrink!
132 WANDA
That’s a great idea, Coo-coo-clock!
133 WANDA
(thick accent)
Now. Let’s take a peek at vhat your
zubconscious is zaying!
Wanda unscrews the top of Timmy’s head and opens it like a trash lid.
A smaller Timmy pops out.
135 COSMO
Whoa! Whoa! I’m not good with this psycho,
mumbo jumbo. What’s that mean?
136 TIMMY
I’m sleep-wishing because I feel guilty?
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 16
The bedroom door starts to open. Cosmo and Wanda poof into the
fish bowl and “magic” the room back to normal.
137 MOM
Timmy?
138 TIMMY
Come in.
Mom and Dad, wearing PAJAMAS, open the door and peek in.
139 MOM
Honey? Are you okay?
140 TIMMY
Yeah, but... can I ask you something?
141 DAD
Sure, hero, anything.
142 TIMMY
You’d still love me even if I wasn’t a hero,
right?
143 MOM
Of course we would, honey!
144 TIMMY
Well, what if, hypothetically, I was the goat-
napper?
145 DAD
Well, Son, then I’d have to do this!
(beat)
(SCREAMS LIKE A LITTLE GIRL)
146 DAD
(from the floor)
Hypothetically, of course.
147 MOM
Well, good night, Son, whom-I-would-hate-to-
discover-was-actually-the-goat-napper!
148 DAD
Mmmmph….
149 TIMMY
Aw, man! Guilt or no guilt, I can’t tell them I
sent Chompy away now!
150 WANDA
But what about the dream wishing? That could
get dangerous.
151 TIMMY
Well, I can’t dream if I don’t sleep, right? So I’ll
just stay awake...
Timmy clicks the light off. His eyes are still wide open.
152 TIMMY
...for the rest of my life.
DISSOLVE TO:
Night turns to day, day turns to night, night turns to the next morning.
Timmy has not moved.
Timmy is still awake, now dressed for school. His eyes are tired,
narrow slits with dark circles beneath them.
154 TIMMY
(exhausted; barely awake)
...Is it the rest of my life yet?
DISSOLVE TO:
Timmy tries desperately to stay awake. His head bobs and falls down.
COSMO and WANDA, in his back pack as GERBILS, comply when
Timmy, asleep, says:
155 TIMMY
Guilty... my fault... I wish... raining ducks!
Cosmo and Wanda wave their wands. Suddenly, the sky turns pitch
black and it starts to rain DUCKS. One duck gets stuck in the
WINDSHIELD WIPER.
156 WANDA
Duck!
157 COSMO
Lots of ‘em!
DISSOLVE TO:
Timmy, at his desk, fights to stay awake. MR. CROCKER and FRANCIS
stand at the front of the room. Outside the window, it’s still raining
ducks.
159 TIMMY
(muttering to himself)
160 TIMMY
Not Vicky... I wish... swarm of lab mice...
Cosmo and Wanda wince, then wave their wands. Suddenly, like a sea
of cotton balls, MICE pour in from everywhere.
162 LOUDSPEAKER
Due to the rain of ducks and plague of mice,
school will be let out early.
ON TIMMY
163 TIMMY
(snoring and muttering)
I wish... Crocker’s head… jar of mustard.

164 KIDS
AAAAA!!!
CUT TO:
Timmy stands, half awake, at the door of the school with Cosmo and
Wanda as POTTED PLANTS. Kids and white mice pour out of the school
around him as the rain of ducks continues.
166 WANDA
We’ve got to get Chompy back here. It’s only
a matter of time before he wishes for
something really dangerous.
167 TIMMY
Murmur... murmur... I WISH FOR A GIGANTIC
MONSTER THAT WON’T GO AWAY UNTIL I TELL
THE TRUTH ABOUT CHOMPY!
They reluctantly raise their wands and POOF! From over the horizon, a
gigantic GREEN MONSTER rises.
168 MONSTER
RRRRRRAAAAAAA!!!!!
169 COSMO
I’ll bet that’s symbolic of his guilt!
(beat)
Hey, I am getting good with that psycho
mumbo jumb...
170 WANDA
Look out!!!
171 TIMMY
AAA!! I wish we were with Chompy!
CUT TO:
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 20
172 WANDA
This must be where we sent Chompy!
173 TIMMY
Great. All we have to do is find him and...
(falls asleep, snore, snore)
Mumble... mumble... I wish… mumble…
mumble… field on fire...
Cosmo and Wanda wave their wands. A small tuft of FLAME pops up
near Timmy. Suddenly...
Chompy leaps heroically into scene and stomps out the fire.
175 TIMMY
Chompy! It’s you! You’ve gotta come back to
Dimmsdale! You...
A LADY GOAT and THREE BABY GOATS trot into frame. The last baby
goat wears a little pink HAT.
176 CHOMPY

178A CHOMPY

178C CHOMPY
(A happy bleat)
179 TIMMY
He’s so happy here. He’s got a family and kids
now! I can’t take him away from all this just so
he can be on display, in a stupid pen!
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 21
180 COSMO
What’re you going to do, Timmy?
181 TIMMY
What I should have done in the first place. I
wish I was at City Hall.
CUT TO:
182 REPORTER
We’re here at City Hall, where Town Hero,
Timmy Turner has scheduled a press
conference about Chompy!
183 TIMMY
Uh... hi. Everybody... I have a confession to
make. I’m no hero.
184 MAYOR
He’s so modest! Let’s give him another
hovercraft to wreck!
185 CROWD
YEAH!!!
186 TIMMY
No! No! No more hovercrafts! No more gifts!
No more cake! I can’t take it anymore! Vicky
didn’t make Chompy go away... I did.

I had to let him go! Don’t you see? Chompy
was miserable in that pen. He deserves to be
happy and free!
195 CROWD
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 23
Awww.... (CHEERS)
196 MAYOR
That is so sweet.
197 TIMMY
Gee, thanks everyone. So I guess that means
I’m not in trouble?
198 MAYOR
(LAUGHS) Of course you are. GET HIM!!!
199 TIMMY
EEP!
CUT TO:
Chompy and his family are watching TV. On the TV, we see Timmy
running.
200 CHOMPY

202 KIDS
(BLEATS)
The goats - and Mrs. Chompy - all head butt each other and bound
O.S.
CUT TO:
Cosmo and Wanda are TRASH CANS as Timmy runs past them as fast
as his little legs can take him. Timmy takes a turn...
203 TIMMY
A dead end! I’m doomed.
The crowd arrives, blocking Timmy. Cosmo and Wanda poof next to
him, still as trash cans.
204 COSMO
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 24
205 TIMMY
I’m only ten!
206 COSMO
I said good, not long.
The angry mob moves closer and closer to Timmy when suddenly,
Chompy crashes through the BRICK WALL!
208 EVERYBODY
Chompy!!
Then, through another wall, Mrs. Chompy bursts through. Then, the
kids, forming a protective ring around Timmy.
209 MAYOR
And he’s got a family!
210 CROWD
Awwww!!!!
211 MAYOR
Timmy Turner, because of you, we now have
FIVE happy mascots instead of one, miserable
one! You’re a hero again!
212 TIMMY
And Chompy?
213 MAYOR
Free to come and go as he pleases!
214 CHOMPY
(A happy bleat)
215 MAYOR
Three cheers for Chompy and Timmy!

Hip Hip, Hooray! Hip Hip, Hooray! Hip... Hip...
Ho...
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 25
Timmy’s in his jammies. Mom and Dad stand over him as Dad eats
the rest of Timmy’s cake.
217 TIMMY
Grounded?
218 MOM
Well, sure, Honey! We’re proud of you for
telling the truth, but you still lied to the entire
town!
219 TIMMY
But my lie made everything better! I know it
was wrong, but doesn’t that count for
anything?
220 DAD
(SCREAMS LIKE A LITTLE GIRL)
221 TIMMY
Apparently not.
222 MOM
Good night, Son-we-still-love-even -though-
he’s-a-grounded-goat-napper.
She grabs Dad by the ankles and drags him out of the room. Cosmo
and Wanda poof in next to him.
223 COSMO
Aw, cheer up, Timmy. Five months’ll go by like
that!
224 TIMMY
It’s okay... Chompy’s back and happy...
(getting tired)
I don’t feel guilty anymore...
(getting more tired)
...and everything’s back to... (snore, snore)
The Fairly OddParents: “Dream Goat” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 6/12/00 26
Timmy drops dead asleep. Wanda waves her wand and the covers
creep up on Timmy. He snores with a smile.
225 WANDA
(whispering)
He’s sound asleep!
226 COSMO
(whispering)
And no dream wishing! But, I can’t help
thinking we forgot something.
CUT TO:
227 VICKY
Hello? HELLO?!?!

CUT TO:
231 WANDA
Ah, well. It’s probably nothing.
They wave their wands. The lights go out. And on the sound of
Timmy snoring, we...
FADE OUT.
