The following is a transcript for Miss Tilly's Fun Time TV Minute short "The Houghton Brothers".
(Open with the intro.)
- Announcer: Miss Tilly's Fun Time TV Minute.
- Tilly: Welcome to my dream. (cut to green screen effect background of The Houghton Brothers wandering around; they end up at her dream stage) And please welcome today's guests Shane and Chris Houghton.
- Chris: Thank you. Here we are!
- Shane: This is amazing and weird.
- Tilly: Thank you so much for noticing.
- Chris: Let's take a moment to just say hello to your wonderful crowd.
(Show her mermaid audience cheering, set to stock sound effects of crowd of children cheering.)
- Tilly: Chris, your voice sounds vaguely familiar.
- Chris: (doing Cricket's voice) C'mon, I don't know what you're really talking about. I mean, maybe---
- Shane: I don't hear it.
(Cricket Green appears in the background outside of Tilly's dream stage; the Houghtons don't notice this.)
- Tilly: Yeah, I'm drawing a blank, too. So what sort of gentleman are you?
- Chris: The two of us, we're animators, okay? So we draw cartoons and animate cartoons.
- Tilly: A labor of love. What love have you labored over lately?
- Shane: The weird thing here, and just go with us....
- Chris: Hm-hmm.
- Shane: ....we created a TV show about a family called the Greens...
- Chris: Uh-huh.
- Shane: ...and they move from the country to a big city.
- Tilly: I feel a very special bond between us.
- Shane: Right, yeah.
- Chris: Right. And it stars your family.
- Tilly: (realizing she's a character in this TV show) Is this a reality TV show?
- Chris: Yes.
- Shane: Not so much.
- Tilly: A prank show?
- Chris: Well, we kinda--- we write everything you say.
- Shane: And do.
- Tilly: Oh, I'm a fictional character and you guys created me?
(The camera slowly close-up to Chris and Shane doing an "I guess so" gesture; tick-tock sound effects are played.)
- Tilly: As I suspected as such.
- Chris: Okay. (he and Shane chuckles a bit)
- Tilly: You probably knew I was gonna say that.
(Shane laughs, then the sound effect of the crowd cheering)
- Tilly: This is a fascinating dream.
(Shane points and laughs at her)
- Chris: (doing Cricket's voice again) Tilly!
- Tilly: Thank you for coming to see me, Shane and Chris.
- Chris: Absolutely.
- Shane: Yeah. Thank you for having us. This has been...
- Shane and Chris: ...weird.
- Chris: Thank you, Tilly Green.
- Announcer: Watch Big City Greens on Disney Channel.
(Episode ends with a closing iris wipe on Tilly.)
