(D.W. is looking around for the book of passwords. and Nadine appears right in front of her due to Arthur, Kate, David, Jane and Pal not being seen.)
Nadine: "D.W.? what exactly are you doing?"
DW: "what exactly does it look like, Nadine? I'm just looking for the book of passwords."
Nadine: "what for?"
DW: "for being able to get right past the stupid and crazy parental controls on the television screen in order to watch Dr. Whosit without Mommy and Daddy knowing."
Nadine: "just think about exactly what you just said. isn't that really breaking your parents' trust? won't they even be angry, upset and disappointed with you? suppose that when they really find out. and you know that they will. they'll give you a severe consequence. Which is kinda like the time when Arthur punched you in the right arm for breaking apart his model rocket plane. are you really sure you really thought this through?"
(DW thinks about exactly what Nadine just said for a few minutes. she begins having a fantasy dream sequence where David and Jane find out that she's watching the entire show.)
D.W.: "This show's really super thrilling."
(David and Jane walk right in to the living room and they discover that D.W.'s watching Dr. Whosit on the television screen.)
David: "egad. the dad is mad."
Jane: "for breaking our trust, Dora Winifred Read, you're grounded for another week."
D.W.: "what for?"
David: "you're gonna have no video games or television or going anyplace for another week."
Jane: "and for that, you're not even gonna go to any motion picture of any single type."
D.W.: "what?! come on already! that just isn't fair at all!"
David: "we think that it's truly fair. we told you before not to break our trust by watching that show and especially messing around with the Parental Controls. which of course me and your mother set in place to protect you from seeing lots of things that you shouldn't even be seeing. but now that you really did this, you really brought this upon yourself. now go to your room and don't even come right back down here 'til dinner meal time."
(D.W. goes right over to her bedroom. and she sits right on her bed with her stuffed animal friends.)
D.W.: [Sighs Heavily Then Groans A Bit]
(End of fantasy flashback sequence….)
D.W.: "you're absolutely right, Nadine. I shouldn't even be breaking Mommy and Daddy's trust. and who even cares about that stupid and pathetic show anyhow? I really should just stick to the shows that I really enjoy watching, like Mary Moo Cow from now on."
D.W.: [Sighs Heavily]
(Arthur, Jane (with Kate), David and Pal walk right into the living room. and Nadine disappears in a jiffy.)
Arthur: "wow, D.W.. you really did make a super good promise."
Jane: "we're super proud of you, D.W.."
David: "you really showed proper respect by not disobeying us or breaking our trust."
Arthur: "the parental controls on the television screen were set by Mom and Dad in order to keep you, me and Kate from seeing or watching things that we shouldn't even be seeing."
David: "that's exactly right, Arthur. It's our career as your parents to help guide and protect you. and that includes the parental controls. we should only be watching super good shows. but not just you, DW or Kate. but all of us as a true family."
D.W.: "So you're not gonna punish me or prevent me from going to see any single motion picture at the movie theater of any single type?"
Jane: "No. of course not. we're super proud of you for doing just the exact right thing."
Arthur: I think now would be a super good time for us to have a true family hang around."
(Arthur, D.W., Jane (with Kate), David and Pal begin having a true family hang around. just then, Bud shows up from right downstairs.)
Bud: "what's going on around here?"
David: "D.W. did just the exact right thing, Bud. she didn't even break our trust by messing around with the parental controls. and we're super proud of her as well too."
Jane: "I say that we all need to celebrate that promise. let's all go out for an ice cream break at the Sugar Bowl."
Arthur: "I second that."
D.W.: "so do I. you wanna come along with all of us, Bud?"
Bud: "okay. super good idea. I'll come along with you guys."
(The Read family members, along with Bud, all go out on their way to the Sugar Bowl for an ice cream break.)
End of alternate story sequence….
