Narrator: Directly to the Kingdom of the Goblins!
(Mr. Uppity raises his finger up to give an order to the Goblin)

(The camera cuts over to Mr. Uppity)
Mr. Uppity: Rubbish!
Narrator: Said Mr. Uppity rudely.
(The camera cuts back to the Goblin King)
Goblin King: I can see that what I've heard is true!

(The camera starts zooming slowly in to the King of the Goblins as he begins explaining his ultimatum to Mr. Uppity)
Goblin King: You're much too puffed up with your own importance. Therefore,
Narrator: He continued,

(The camera cuts over to Mr. Uppity)
Mr. Uppity: GO AWAY!
Narrator: Snapped Mr. Uppity, rudely. But...as (struggles hard not to laugh) as soon as he said it....y-(giggles) you know what happened don't you?
(The boy, holding the yellow ball, blinks as the camera pans down to his feet, fading to a very small and surprised Mr. Uppity looking up at the boy)
Narrator: Mr. Uppity shrank and shrank, until he was no bigger than the ball that the boy was playing with!
Mr. Uppity: Oh dear!
Narrator: He gasped. And then he thought.
(Mr. Uppity raises his hat)
Mr. Uppity: I'm sorry.
(Mr. Uppity lowers his hat)
Narrator: He said to the boy.
Mr. Uppity: What I meant to say was, please could I get past?

Mr. Uppity: No!

(The man selling newspapers is then seen with a small smile on his face)
Narrator: "Thank you" was a word, Mr. Uppity had never used before.
(The man selling newspapers' smile stretches across his face slowly)
Narrator: The man smiled. A smile was something Mr. Uppity wasn't used to getting. "Thank you" was a word Mr. Uppity not only had never used before, but it was a word he'd never had said to him before!
(Mr. Uppity is then shown in his private limousine being chauffeured across Bigtown with a contented smile upon his face)
Narrator: Mr. Uppity smiled! He felt happy! Happy was a feeling Mr. Uppity wasn't used to feeling! And he liked it!
(The next scene shows a silhouette of Mr. Uppity's limousine driving past his mansion)
Narrator: And do you know? From that day forward, to this day backward, Mr. Uppity is a changed person. He's still the richest person in Bigtown, perhaps the richest person in the world! But now he has lots of friends, and he smiles a lot!
(The final scene shows Mr. Uppity smiling contentedly, as he his chauffeured in his limousine across the streets of Bigtown)
Narrator: And he never gets that shrinking feeling. And do you know which two words Mr. Uppity uses most of all these days?
(The camera zooms in on Mr. Uppity as he rides in the limo)
