Joy: (narrates:) Do you ever look at someone and wonder, "What is going on inside their head?" Well, I know. ...Well, I know Riley's head.

(Fades up in a white space; Mr. and Mrs. Andersen are admiring their newborn baby Riley, who wakes up and coos happily. Zoom in on Riley's head.)

(In Riley's mind, everything is black. From out of the darkness steps a glowing figure, Joy. She comes forward and sees a blank screen above her; below her is a single button. She presses it, and it turns yellow like her. Riley is heard cooing.)

(Zoom back from Joy to the real world, showing the baby Riley as she coos and giggles happily.)

Joy: (narrates:) And there she was...

(On the screen, Mr. and Mrs. Andersens' faces materialize into view.)

Mrs. Andersen: Hello, Riley.

Mr. Andersen: Oh, look at you. Aren't you a little bundle of joy?

(A ding is heard, and a glowing yellow orb of what just happened is formed from behind the screen. Joy examines it.)

Memory Mr. Andersen: Aren't you a little bundle of joy?

(She puts the memory back in place and it rolls across a rack around the area, making the lights come up and revealing a red-violet space of gears, as Headquarters is starting to form. Joy is astounded; she presses the button again, and Riley coos in response. Joy beams.)

Joy: (narrates:) It was amazing. Just Riley and me... Forever.

(Riley keeps giggling and Joy smiles in reply; suddenly, Riley starts crying, which confuses her.)

Joy: (narrates:) Er, for thirty three seconds.

(Next to Joy, a droopy and gloomy blue figure, Sadness, is working the button, which turns blue in response.)

Sadness: I'm Sadness.

Joy: Oh, hello. I... I'm Joy. So... Can I just... If you could... I just want to fix that. Thanks.

(The two start arguing over the button as she speaks.)

Joy: (narrates:) And that was just the beginning. Headquarters only got more crowded from there.

(Riley, now a toddler, runs through the house pulling a wagon and giggling. In her mind, in the now formed Headquarters, Fear, a jagged purple figure, comes out from behind joy. The single button is now replaced with a control console.)

Fear: Very nice. Okay, looks like you got this. Very good.

(The screen shows everything through Riley's eyes, as she is running.)

Fear: Whoa, sharp turn! NO, LOOK OUT! NO!

(He takes action; the console turns purple in response.)

Joy: (narrates:) That's Fear. He's really good at keeping Riley safe.

(Fear's actions prompt Riley to stop running and notice the plugged cable, and step over it slowly.)

Fear: (voiceover) Easy, easy. AGH! OH MY! Oh, we're good. We're good.

(In Headquarters, the memories have been nestled on a shelf off to the left; a purple memory, indicating a fearful one, rolls in to nestle against the yellow one on the right.)

Joy: Whew!

Sadness: Good job.

Fear: Thank you. Thank you very much.

Joy: And we're back!

(She takes over, prompting Riley to resume her silliness, knocking over a lamp in the process. Mr. Andersen picks her up.)

Young Riley: Oh!

(She is put in her high chair for lunch; she is served a bowl full of broccoli as Mr. Andersen tries to feed her a stalk.)

Mr. Andersen: Here we go. All right, open.

Joy: Hmm. This looks new.

Fear: You think it's safe?

Sadness: What is it?

(On the screen, Mr. Andersen brings the spoonful forward. Here comes a green feminine figure, Disgust, who takes control.)

Disgust: Okay, caution! There is a dangerous smell, people! Hold on. What is that?

Joy: (narrates:) This is Disgust. She basically keeps Riley from being poisoned. Physically and socially.

Disgust: That is not brightly colored or shaped like a dinosaur. Hold on, guys. It's broccoli!

(She retches and works the console, turning it green; this prompts Riley to react.)

Young Riley: YUCKY!

(She flips her bowl, spilling the broccoli into Mr. Andersen's face. On the memory shelf, a green memory rolls in, indicating a disgusted one.)

Disgust: Well, I just saved our lives.

Fear and Sadness: Whew!

Disgust: Yeah. You're welcome.

Mr. Andersen: Riley, if you don't eat your dinner, you're not gonna get any dessert.

(Shifts to a red firebrick-like figure, Anger, who sits and reads a newspaper with a headline "NO DESSERT!"; he puts it down lividly.)

Anger: Wait. Did he just say we couldn't have dessert?

(He puts down the newspaper and steps up to the console; his head begins to flame up.)

Joy: (narrates:) That's Anger. He cares very deeply about things being fair.

Anger: So that's how you want to play it, old man?! No dessert?! Oh, sure, we'll eat our dinner! Right after YOU eat THIS!

(The console turns red as he mans it, and, letting out a furious yell, does his thing as a heavy drumroll is heard in the background score. This prompts Riley to scream in her chair as well, and a red angry memory rolls in on the shelf. She keeps throwing a fit when Mr. Andersen intervenes.)

Mr. Andersen: Riley, Riley, here comes an airplane!

(He makes the sound of an airplane flying; Anger immediately calms down.)

Anger: Oh, airplane. We got an airplane, everybody.

Joy, Sadness, Disgust: Oh!

Fear: Airplane.

(Mr. Andersen successfully feeds Riley, who has also calmed down; a yellow memory appears on the shelf. Sadness then lounges next to Joy, who is obviously not pleased by her presence.)

Joy: (narrates:) And you've met Sadness. She... Well, she... I'm not actually sure what she does.

(She smiles meekly at Sadness, who promptly exits.)

Joy: (narrates:) And I've checked, there's no place for her to go, so... She's good, we're good. It's all great!

(She goes over to the left side of Headquarters, shelves lined with various memory orbs. Most of them are happy and yellow.)

Joy: (narrates:) Anyway, these are Riley's Memories, and they're mostly happy, you'll notice. Not to brag.

(She inspects one memory of Riley and her friend Meg playing on a playground slide. She rewinds the memory like a touchscreen with her finger.)

(She hugs the memory and puts it back; she then goes over to the center of the room to a big round setting of five round lights shooting out beams to the windows outside.)

Joy: (narrates:) But the really important ones are over here.

(She pushes down a slot; this brings up a pedestal of five dazzlingly bright memory orbs arranged in a circle.)

Joy: (narrates:) I don't want to get too technical, but these are called Core Memories. Each one came from a super important time in Riley's life. Uh, like when she first scored a goal?

(Flashback to Riley and her parents ice skating on the lake, playing pretend hockey.)

Joy: (narrates:) Oh, that was so amazing!

(A stumble, she unknowingly hits the puck and scores a goal.)

Mr. Andersen: Hey! Would you look at that? Very nice! We got a future center here!

Mrs. Andersen: Nice job!

(In Headquarters, the emotions cheer in response. Suddenly, a loud ding and bright light catches them off guard. From behind the screen is a brightly glowing orb of the memory, which slips into the floor and slides through an underground track to the pedestal, which shoots out a beam of light and creates a floating island outside decorated with various hockey equipment.)

Joy: (narrates:) And each Core Memory powers a different aspect of Riley's personality. Like... Hockey Island!

(The emotions go to observe the five islands outside, with the hockey one in the middle. To the far left is an island of various toys and silly things, and a big clown's face.)

Joy: (narrates:) Goofball Island is my personal favorite.

(Flashback: Riley runs through the house naked as her parents chase her.)

Mr. Andersen: Ah, come back here, you little monkey!

(This act of silliness is what sets the island in action, showing the clown's eyes spin around and its tongue sticking out, a mallet hitting its head, and a series of practical jokes like a Ferris wheel of shoes honking a horn and a monkey centerpiece spinning plates.)

Mr. Andersen: (laughs) Oh, you're silly!

Joy: (narrates:) Yep, Goofball is the best.

(Just to the left is an island showing two heads of people talking to each other among with various "friendly" material, like hearts, stars, and statuettes of people dancing.)

Joy: (narrates:) Friendship Island is pretty good too.

(Flashback: Riley and Meg walking arm-in-arm, leg-over-leg, down the sidewalk. To the left of Hockey Island is an island with various integrity memorabilia, such as scales, gavels, and a courthouse on a hill.)

Joy: (narrates:) Oh, I love Honesty Island. And that's the truth!

(Flashback: A guilty Riley stands near a broken plate and holds up a hammer admitting she was behind it. The last island to the far right features various family-oriented landmarks, such as a family tree, a board game, the Andersens' car hauling a trailer, three figures jumping on a trampoline, and a trio of gigantic statues representing the Andersens in a warm embrace.)

Joy: (narrates:) And of course, Family Island is amazing!

(Flashback: Riley and her parents decorate cookies together. Riley stuffs her cookie in Mr. Andersens' mouth.)

Joy: (narrates:) The point is, the Islands of Personality are what make Riley... Riley!

(Quick intercuts: Riley in the bath.)

Young Riley: Look out, mermaid!

(She makes a big splash; Riley is now in the living room crawling across the couch. In Headquarters, Joy inserts a flower chip into the console which projects a daydream from Riley's view; the floor becoming imaginary lava.)

Young Riley: Lava! Whee!

(She jumps to the chair: Now she sits and draws a doodle of a pink elephant creature on the living room wall.)

Young Riley: ♪ Who's your friend who likes to play? Bing Bong, Bing Bong! ♪

(On a frozen pond, the six-year-old Riley skates for her parents.)

Mr. Andersen: Hey! Very nice!

Mrs. Andersen: Where'd you learn that?

(In Headquarters, Joy "skates" around the floor. On the front doorstep, the 11-year-old Riley and Meg drink Slushees; suddenly, Riley gets a brain freeze from drinking too fast.)

Riley: Ahhh!!!

(In Headquarters, everything and everyone begins to ice over.)

Fear: BRAIN FREEZE!!!

(The emotions scream as they succumb to the freezing; first Anger, then Fear, and finally Sadness, whose eyes remain the only part active once immobile. On the ice pond, Riley is now participating in a hockey game; she successfully scores as the crowd cheers.)

Riley: Yeah!

Joy: Yay!

(Riley is now tucked in bed; Mr. Andersen clicks off the light.)

Mr. Andersen: Good night, kiddo.

Riley: Good night, Dad.

(The door closes; Riley looks at the glow-in-the-dark stars on her bedroom ceiling as Joy watches. The screen dims out like a TV switching off as Riley falls asleep.)

Joy: And... we're out. (she goes to examine all the memories on the shelves) That's what I'm talking about! Whoo! Another perfect day! Nice job, everybody! Let's get those memories down to Long Term.

(Joy presses a button on the floor with her foot; the memories begin to slide off the shelves and across roof trails.)

Fear: All right, we did not die today! I call that an unqualified success.

(Disgust observes as the memories continue to pachinko and flush out, then sink into the floor through the underground trails as the recall tube in the roof covers the hole in the floor and sucks the memories up right through it. Joy goes to the window and watches the memories rain down across Long Term Memory like falling stars.)

Joy: (narrates:) And that's it. We love our girl. She's got great friends and a great house. Things couldn't be better. After all, Riley's 11 now. What could happen?

(Outside the Andersen house, a "For Sale" sign is placed into the ground; across the middle reads "SOLD".)

Joy: What...?

Sadness, Anger, Fear, Disgust: AAUGH!!!

(Mr. Andersen closes the trunk of the car.)

Sadness, Anger, Fear, Disgust: AAUGH!!!

(A moving van drives off.)

Joy: Okay, not what I had in mind.

Sadness, Anger, Fear, Disgust: AAUGH!!!

(MUSIC PLAYING)

JOY: Hey, look!

The Golden Gate Bridge!

Isn't that great?

It's not made out of solid gold like we thought, which is kind of disappointing, but still...

I sure am glad you told me earthquakes are a myth, Joy.

Otherwise I'd be terrified right now.

Ah... yeah.

These are my kind of people.

Alright, just a few more blocks.

- We're almost to our new house.

- Step on it, Daddy.

Why don't we just live in the smelly car?

We're already been in it forever!

Which... actually was really lucky, because that gave us plenty of time to think about what our new house is going to look like. What? Let's review the top 5 daydreams. - Woo, that looks safe! - That looks nice.

Ooh, this'll be great for Riley.

Oh, no, no... this one!

Joy for the last time, she cannot live in a cookie.

That's the one, it comes with a dragon.

We're getting close, I can feel it.

Here it is.

Here's our new house.

And...

Maybe, it's nice on the inside.

- We're suppose to live here?

- Do we have to?

I'm telling you, it smells like something died in here.

- Can you die from moving?

- Guys, you're overreacting.

- Nobody is dying.

- A dead mouse!

- Great!

- I'm gonna be sick.

- It's a house of the dead, what're we gonna do?

We're gonna get rabies!

- Get offa me!

- Waahh!

Hey, hey, all through the drive, Dad talked about how cool our new room is. - Let's go check it out. - It's gonna be great! Yes, yes, yes!

- No, no, no...

- I'm starting to envy the dead mouse.

Get out the rubber ball.

We're in solitary confinement.

- Riley can't live here.

- She's right, it's really bad.

- It's absolutely the worst.

- This house stinks.

It's the worst place I've been in my entire life.

- Oh, yeah.

Hey, it's nothing our butterfly curtains couldn't fix.

I read somewhere that an empty room is an opportunity.

- Where 'd you read that?

- It doesn't matter.

I read it and it's great.

We'll put the bed there.

And the desk over there.

The hockey lamp goes there.

- Put the chair there.

- Oh, the trophy collections.

Stars!

- I like that.

- Now, we're talking!

Let's go get our stuff from the moving van.

Alright.

Goodbye. Well, guess what?

The moving van won't be here until Thursday.

You're kidding.

- Our van is lost?

- It's the worst day ever.

- You said it would be here yesterday.

- I know that's what I said.

- That's what they told me.

- Mom and Dad are stressed out.

They're stressed out.

What're we gonna do?

- What is their problem?

- I've got a great idea!

Did you even read the contract?

Anderson makes her move.

She's closing in.

Hey! Oh no, you're not.

- She's lining up her shot.

- Coming behind you, watch out.

And she scores!

Yeah!

- Woo-hoo!

- Yo-ho!

Come on, Grandmother!

Grandma?!

Oh-oh, she put her hair up. We're in for it. Heyyy, put me down! Ah... Sorry, hold on. - Hello. - Wait, wha...? You're kidding me! Alright, stall for me, I'll be right there. The investor's supposed to show up on Thursday, not today. - I gotta go. - It's OK, we get it.

You're the best, thanks, hon. See you, sweetie. Dad just left us. Oh, he doesn't love us anymore.

That's sad. I should drive, right? Joy, what are you doing? Ah, just give me one second. You know what I've realised? Riley hasn't had lunch. Remember? Hey, I saw a pizza place down the street, maybe we can try that.

-Pizza sounds delicious.

- Pizza? Yeah, let's go for pizza. Great, let's get it.

- What the heck is that?

Who puts broccoli on pizza?

Disgust: That's it, I'm done.

Anger: Congratulations San Francisco, you've ruined pizza! First the Hawaiians and now you!

What kind of a pizza place only serves one kind of pizza?

Must be a San Francisco thing.

Still, it's not as bad as the soup at that diner in Nebraska.

Oh, yeah. The spoon stood up in the soup by itself. We're good. Family's running. The drive out was pretty fun, huh? What was your favorite part? Spitting out of the car window. - Definitely not when Dad was singing.

- Wearing the seat belt.

Oh, what about the time with the dinosaur?

- Oh, that's the one!

- For sure.

- Say cheese.

- Dad.

- Honey.

Dad, Dad, Dad, look at the car. Just look behind you.

No-no-no... Ohh!

Nice one, Joy.

I like that time with the dinosaur. That was pretty funny.

(All of a sudden, the memory onscreen turns blue; Riley's smile fades.)

Wait, what. What happened?

She did something to the memory.

- What did you do?

- I, I just touched it.

- That shouldn't make it change.

- Oh, change it back, Joy.

- I'm trying.

- You can't change it back?

- No, I guess I can't.

- Good going, Sadness! Now when Riley thinks of that moment with Dad, she's gonna feel sad. Bravo!

I'm sorry, Joy. I don't really know... I thought maybe if you, if you, I mean...

Joy, we got a stairway coming up.

Just don't touch any other memories until we figured out what's going on.

- OK.

- Alright. Get ready. This is a monster railing and we are riding it all the way down.

(Riley sits on the railing, ready to slide.)

(Riley goes to slide... but suddenly hops off and walks down instead.)

Wait, what... What happened?

- A core memory!

- Oh no!

- Sadness, what're you doing?

- It looked like one was crooked, so I opened it and then it fell out!

(Riley jumps back on the railing and slides down.)

Woo-hoo!

It's just that, I wanted to, maybe, hold one.

- Woah! Joy!

- Woah, Woah, Woah! Sadness, you nearly touched a core memory! And when you touch them, we can't change them back. I know. I'm sorry. Something's wrong with me. It's like I'm having a break down.

You're not having a break down. It's stress.

I keep making mistakes like that. I'm awful.

- No, you're not! - And annoying. The... well... You know what? You can't focus on what's going wrong. There's always a way to turn things around To find the fun. Yeah, find the fun. I don't know how to do that.

OK, well... Try to think of something funny.

Oh. Remember the funny movie where the dog dies?

Oh, yeah... That's not... What about that time, with Meg? When Riley laughed so hard, milk came out of her nose. Come on!

Yeah, that hurt, it felt like fire. It was...

OK, OK. Don't think of that. Let's try something else. - What are your favorite things to do?

- My favorite?

Well, I like it when we're outside. That's good! Like, there's the beach and sunshine. Oh, like the time we buried Dad in the sand up to his neck.

I was thinking more like rain.

Rain Rain is my favorite too! We can stomp around the puddles You know, there's cool umbrellas, lightning storms.

More like when the rain runs down our back, and makes our shoes soggy. And we get all cold, shivery and everything starts feeling droopy.

Oh, hey, hey! Easy. Why are you crying? Th-this is really the opposite of what we're going for, here.

Crying helps me slow down and obsess over the weight of life's problems.

You know what? Let's think about something else. How about we read some mind manuals. Huh? Sounds fun! I've read most of them.

Have you read this one.

This seem interesting. Long term memory retrieval. Volume 47.

- No.

- Ooh, a real page turner!

Long term memory data selection via channel subgroup B.

See? Fun already! Oh, you lucky dog. You're reading these cool things; I gotta go work. Life is so unfair. Ugh!

Mrs. Andersen: What can we do? We only got capital to last a month maybe two. If we can't find investors by then, we're gonna have to lay people off.

Riley: Mom, Dad, come kiss me good night!

I know. We got to land this, OK.

Be right there!

Did you hear Dad? He sounded really upset.

Fear: What was that? Was it a bear? It's a bear!

Disgust: There are no bears in San Francisco.

Anger: I saw a really hairy guy. He looked like a bear.

Fear: Oh. I'm so jumpy, my nerves are shot!

Disgust: Ew, I don't wanna hear about your nerves!

Anger: I'll tell you what it is. This move has been a bust.

That's what I've been telling you guys. There're at least 37 things for Riley to be scared of right now. This smell alone is enough to make her gag. I can't believe Mom and Dad moved us here. Look, I get it. You guys have concerns. But we've been through worse. Tell you what. Let's make a list of all the things Riley should be happy about. Fine. Let's see, this house stinks, our room stinks. - Pizza is weird here. - Our friends are back home. And all our stuff is in the missing van. Oh, come on, it could be worse. Yeah, Joy. We could be lying on the dirty floor, in a bag. OK, I admit it. We had a rough start. - But think of all the good things... - No, Joy. There is absolutely no reason for Riley to be happy right now. Let us handle this. I say we skip school tomorrow and lock ourselves in the bedroom. We have no clean clothes no one should see us. And we could cry until we can't breathe. We should lock the doors and scream the curse word we know. - It's a good one. - Now, hold on! Look, we all have our off days, you know... Hi honey.

The Mom-bad-news train is pulling in. Toot-toot!

Still no moving van, huh! Now they're saying it won't be here till Tuesday. Can you believe it?

Toot-toot-toot!

Where's Dad?

On the phone. This new venture is keeping him pretty busy. I rest my case! Your dad's a little stressed about getting his new company up and running... Now, for a few well placed withering scowls. I guess all I really want to say is... - Thank you. - Huh? You know, through all this confusion, you've stayed... Well, you've stayed our happy girl. Your Dad's under a lot of pressure. But, if you and I can keep smiling, it would be a big help. We can do that for him, right? Woh! Well. Yeah. Sure. What did we do to deserve you! - Sweet dreams. - Good night. Well, you can't argue with Mom. - Happy it is! - Can't argue, that's true. - Team Happy. Sounds great. - Totally behind you, Joy.

Looks like we're going into R.E.M. I got dream duty so I'll take care of sending these to long term. Great day today, guys. All is well, team Happy.

(On the screen, a harp glissando sounds out as a wavy square cloud forms -- Riley is beginning to dream.)

Alright, what's on tonight, dream production?

(In the dream, the Andersens' car flies through the sky.)

Dream Mr. Andersen: Well, this is it. The new place.

Come live with me, Riley...

Eurk!

Somebody ordered a broccoli pizza.

Eat me, I'm organic.

(Riley begins to cringe in her sleep.)

Oh no! Who is in charge of programming down there? I know I'm not supposed to do this, but...

(She pushes a button on the bottom of the console, shutting off the dream.)

We are not going to end the day like this.

Don't you worry. I'm going to make sure that tomorrow is another great day. I promise.

(It is now morning; Joy is playing the accordion. Inside the house on the second level, the other emotions wake up, clearly unamused at this.)

Joy: Hello, did I wake you?

Anger: Do you have to play that?!

Joy: Well, I have to practice. And I don't think of it as playing so much as hugging.

(They head downstairs.)

Joy: OK, first day of school. Very, very exciting. I was up late last night figuring out a new plan. Here it is: Fear!

Fear: Huh?

Joy: I need a list of all the possible negative outcomes on the first day at a new school.

Fear: Way ahead of you there. Does anyone know how to spell meteor?

Joy: Disgust, make sure Riley stands out today. But, also blends in.

Disgust: When I'm through, Riley will look so good, the other kids will look at their own outfits and barf.

Joy: Joy! "Yes, Joy?" You'll be in charge of the console. Keeping Riley happy all day long. And may I add, I love your dress, it's adorable. "Oh, this old thing. Thank you so much." I love the way it twirls.

(Outside, a train's horn is heard as it pulls in.)

Joy: Train of Thought, right on schedule. Anger, unload the daydreams. I ordered extra, in case things get slow in class. Might come in handy.

Anger: If this new school is full of boring, useless classes. Which it probably will be.

Joy: Oh, Sadness. I have a super important job just for you.

Sadness: Really?

Joy: M-hm, follow me.

(Somewhere else, she draws a chalk circle around Sadness' feet.)

Sadness: What are you doing?

Joy: And there. Perfect. This is the circle of sadness. Your job is to make sure that all the sadness stays inside of it. So, you want me just to stand here? Hey, it's not my place to tell you how to do your job. Just make sure that all... the sadness stays in the circle. See? You're a pro at this! Isn't this fun?

Sadness: No.

Joy: Atta girl.

(She walks back to the front of the room.)

Joy: Alright everyone, fresh start. We're going to have a good day which will turn into a good week, which will turn into a good year, which turns into a good life!

(Riley heads for the door.)

Mrs. Andersen: So, big day. New school, new friends, huh?

Riley: I know. I'm kind of nervous but I'm mostly excited. How do I look?

(In Headquarters, Joy watches Family Island start up out the window.)

Riley: Do you like my purse?

Mrs. Andersen: Very cute! You gonna be Okay? You want us to walk with you?

Disgust: Mom and Dad, with us in public?! No, thank you.

Joy: Yup, I'm on it.

(She pushes a button and Riley picks up.)

Riley: Nope, I'm fine. Bye Mom. Bye Dad.

Mr. Andersen: (putting a call on hold) Have a good day at school, monkey.

(They make monkey noises at each other; Goofball Island sets off. Riley giggles and exits.)

Mrs. Andersen: Have a great day, sweetheart.

(Outside, Riley walks down the sidewalk until she comes to her new school; she stops and hesitates.)

Fear: Are you sure we want to do this?

Joy: In we go!

(This prompts Riley to go right for it.)

Fear: OK, going in. Yes!

(Riley sits in her new classroom; students talk amongst each other. Riley notices them; Disgust picks up three girls in particular.)

Disgust: OK. We've got a group of cool girls at 2 o'clock.

Joy: How do you know?

Disgust: Double ears pierced, infinity scarf.

(Their leader turns around.)

Joy: Woah! Is she wearing eyeshadow?

Disgust: Yeah, we want to be friends with them.

Joy: Let's go talk to them! (starts to work)

Disgust: Are you kidding?! We're not talking to them! We want them to like us.

Joy: Oh, yeah. Wait, what?

(Fear comes over holding a stack of sheets.)

Fear: Almost finished with the potential disasters. Worst scenario is either quicksand, spontaneous combustion, or getting called on by the teacher. So as long as none of this happens...

(The teacher arrives and steps to the front of the room.)

Teacher: OK, everybody, we have a new student in class today.

Fear: (scatters the sheets in fright) Are you kidding me?! Out of the gate! This is not happening!

Teacher: Riley, would you like to tell us something about yourself?

Fear: NOOO! Pretend we can't speak English!

Joy: Don't worry, I got this.

(She does her work; this prompts Riley to speak up.)

Riley: Um, okay... (stands) My name is Riley Anderson. I'm from Minnesota and now I live here.

(She glances over at some of the students and the cool girl.)

Teacher: And how about Minnesota? Can you tell us something about it? Well, you certainly get a lot more snow than we do. (chuckles)

Joy: (also chuckles) She's hilarious...!

(She does more work.)

Riley: Yeah, it gets pretty cold. The lake freezes over and that’s when we play hockey. I'm on a great team. We're called the Prairie Dogs. My friend, Meg, plays forward, and my dad's the coach.

(Joy pushes a button which makes a happy memory comes down the recall tube and projects onto the screen; it shows the Andersens playing hockey on a frozen pond.)

Riley: Pretty much everyone in my family skates. It's kind of a family tradition. We go out on the lake almost every weekend.

(Suddenly, the memory turns blue; Riley's mood sinks.)

Riley: Or, we did, till... I moved away.

Disgust: Hey. What gives?

Fear: Wait, what?

(The culprit is Sadness, who has left her circle and touched the memory, changing it.)

Joy: Hey! Sadness!? You touched a memory!? We talked about this!

Sadness: Oh, yeah, I know. I'm sorry.

Joy: Get back in your circle!

(She attempts to cheer Riley, but the console does not respond.)

Joy: Ugh... What's going on!?!

Fear: Get it out of there, Joy!

Joy: Eject!!

(Still nothing happens; Riley's homesickness begins to take over.)

Riley: (sniffs; voice shakes) We... used to... play tag, and stuff...

Disgust: Cool kids whispering at 3 o'clock!

(Indeed the cool girls are whispering to each other.)

Fear: Did you see that look?

Joy: Oh, no.

Fear: They're judging us!

(Joy and the emotions struggle to remove the memory from the recall unit; behind them, Sadness notices the console is open and rushes toward it...)

Joy: Somebody help, grab that thing... Everybody put in...

Riley: (beginning to cry) But, everything's different now... Since we moved...

(She starts shedding tears and sniffs again; the students stare at her in silence.)

Fear: Oh no. WE'RE CRYING! AT SCHOOL!!

Joy: Wha...?!

(Still struggling, Joy sees Sadness is working the console, it responding to her and her alone.)

Joy: Sadness, what are you doing!!?!

(She successfully ejects the memory and rushes up to her, pulling her away from the console.)

Sadness: Whoa!!! I'm sorry. Oh...oh!

(A loud flash and ding is heard; a new core memory appears from behind the screen. Unlike the others, this one is blue and sad.)

Fear: (gasps) It's a core memory.

Disgust: But it's blue.

(Indeed it is; it shows Riley crying in front of the whole class due to her homesickness.)

Joy: (gasps) No, wait! Stop it! No! Agh! No!

(The memory sinks into the floor before she could grab it; it flows down through the track to the core memory pedestal, and she opens the pedestal and grabs the memory just before it could settle in. She then pushes the "end of day memory flush" button to activate the recall tube and flush all the memories off the shelves.)

Sadness: Joy, no. (Tries to pull the memory away) That's a core memory! ...Wait!

Joy: Hey! Stop it! Let go!

(She breaks free of her grasp; she stumbles backward and hits the pedestal, causing all the core memories to fall out, and the pedestal powers down as they gasp.)

Fear: The core memories!

(The result causes the light poles to go out; the core memories power down and become greyscale. Riley's head raises, still breaking down and losing thought.)

Joy: AGH!

(She throws the sad core memory aside and gathers up all the happy ones that fell out. But then she sees Sadness trying to insert the sad core memory and gasps; she jumps at Sadness and she loses grip, dropping the sad core memory as it rolls toward the activated recall tube and gets sucked up through it and out of the roof to Long Term Memory. But it is still not done yet; one of the happy core memories begins rolling toward the still-sucking tube as well as it starts coming down from the ceiling.)

Joy: NO NO NO NO -- !

(She grabs the memory but gets sucked up the tube herself; she tries to keep herself weighed down by keeping her foot hooked outside; she struggles to reach her other foot down, but Sadness gets sucked toward her as well!)

Sadness: Whoa...

(Both Joy and Sadness are sucked up!)

Joy, Sadness: AAAAGH!!

(They disappear out the roof hatch, and the door closes as the tube retracts. Riley silently sits down and wipes her tears.)

Teacher: Thank you, Riley. I know it can be tough moving to a new place. But we're happy to have you here. Alright everyone, get out your history books, and turn to chapter 7.

(The students do so; Riley hides her face behind her book, not saying a word. In Headquarters, the remaining emotions are still distraught.)

Anger: Can I say that curse word now?

[Joy and Sadness scream as they rocket down the tube. Joy desperately tries to hold on to the core memories. The blue core memory is sorted to a side tube. Joy lands in a bin of memories. Sadness crashes next to her.]

Joy: Oh no... (gathering memories) One, two, three... okay, got ’em. Wha-- where are we?

[Joy takes in the shelving around her.]

Joy: Long-Term Memory...!

[Joy grabs the core memories and jumps out of the dumpster. She sees GOOFBALL ISLAND, silent and dark.]

Joy: Goofball Island?

[Joy surveys the islands beyond. They’re all dark.]

Sadness: Hoh... Riley’s Islands of Personality. They’re ALL down! This is bad.

Joy: We-- we can fix this. We just have to get back to Headquarters, plug the core memories in, and Riley will be back to normal.

[Joy and Sadness hurry towards headquarters.]

Sadness: Riley has no core memories, no personality islands and no-- (gasp)

Joy: Wha-- What is it?

Sadness: You! YOU’RE not in headquarters. Without you, Riley can’t be happy. We gotta get you back up there.

Joy: I’m coming, Riley.

[They set off across the bridge to Goofball Island. We see the LIGHTLINE beyond it, leading towards Headquarters.]

So, as it turns out, the green trash can is not recycling. It's for greens, like compost and eggshells. And the blue one is recycling, and the black...

Disgust: Riley's acting so weird! Why is she acting so weird?

Anger: What do you expect? All the Islands are down!

Disgust: Joy would know what to do.

Fear: That's it! Until she gets back, we just do what Joy would do.

Disgust: Good idea! Anger, Fear, Disgust... How are we supposed to be happy?

Mrs. Andersen: Hey, Riley, I got good news. I found a Junior Hockey League, right here in San Francisco. And get this! Tryouts are tomorrow after school. What luck, right?

Anger: Hockey?

Disgust: Uh-oh, what do we do?

Fear: Guys, th-this... You pretend to be Joy.

Mrs. Andersen: Wouldn't it be great to be back out on the ice?

Oh, yeah, that sounds fantastic.

Fear: What was that? That wasn't anything like Joy!

Disgust: Ah, because I'm NOT Joy!

Fear: Yeah, no kidding!

Did you guys pick up on that?

Yeah, something's wrong.

Should we ask her?

Let's probe. But keep it subtle so she doesn't notice.

Mrs. Andersen: So, how was the first day of school?

Anger: She's probing us.

Disgust: I'm done. You pretend to be Joy.

Fear: What? OK...

It was fine, I guess, I dunno.

Disgust: Oh, very smooth. That was just like Joy.

Something is definitely going on!

She's never acted like this, before. What should we do?

We're gonna find out what's happening. But we'll need support. Signal the husband.

Mrs. Andersen: Ahem!

Uh-oh! She's looking at us. - What did she say?

What? Oh, sorry sir, no one was listening.

Is it garbage night? We left the toilet seat up? What? What is it, woman? What?

He's making that stupid face again.

I could strangle him right now!

Signal him again.

Mr. Andersen: Ah! So... Riley, how was school?

Aw, Seriously?

You gotta be kidding me!

For this, we gave up that Brazilian helicopter pilot?!

Anger: Move! I'll be Joy.

School was great, alright!

Mrs. Andersen: Riley? Is everything OK?

Sir, she just rolled her eyes at us.

What is her deal? Alright, make a show of force. I don't wanna have to put the foot down.

Dad's Fear: No, not the foot!

Riley, I do not like this new attitude.

Anger: Oh, I'll show you attitude, old man!

Fear: No, no-no, stay happy.

[Anger shoves him away and hits a button.]

What is your problem? Just leave me alone!

Sir, reporting high level of sass.

Take it to DefCon 2.

Your heard that gentlemen. DefCon 2!

Listen, young lady, I don't know where this disrespectful attitude came from.

Anger: You wanna piece of this, pops? Come and get it!

Yeah? Well, well...

Here it comes. Prepare the foot!

Keys, to Safety Position! Ready to launch on your command, sir.

Just, shut up!

Fire!

That's it. Go to your room! Now!

Foot is down. The foot is down! Woo!

Good job, gentlemen. That could've been a disaster.

Well, that was a disaster.

Come, fly with me, gatinha. (kitten)

[Joy and Sadness have made it across Goofball Island and must now walk across the thin lightline. Below is the darkness of the Memory Dump.]

Sadness We’re gonna walk out there? On that?

Joy It’s the quickest way back.

Sadness But it’s right over the Memory Dump. If we fall, we’ll be forgotten forever!

Joy We have to do this. For Riley. Just follow my footsteps.

Sadness Hohh... ok.

Joy (stepping onto lightline) It's not that high. It’s totally fiii... Whoa...

[She loses her balance. Almost drops a memory over the side. Sadness steps out onto the lightline. They inch along. ]

LATER Dad knocks on Riley’s door, peeks in.

DAD Hey.

Riley’s in her sleeping bag. She doesn’t answer.

DAD So uh, things got a little out of hand downstairs. You want to talk about it? (still no answer) Come on. Where’s my happy girl? Monkey. (he tries monkey noises)

He’s trying to start up Goofball. Fear looks at the empty Core Memory Holder, then out the window: GOOFBALL ISLAND is dark and silent.

DAD Come on. (tries more monkey noises)

Riley looks at Dad, but TURNS AWAY.

[Goofball Island crumbles and breaks. Joy sees the lightline breaking ahead.]

Joy: Ahhh! Go back! RUN! RUN! RUN!

[They run back onto Goofball Island as the lightline crumbles. Joy and Sadness frantically outrun collapsing debris. They leap across the buckling bridge, making it over to the cliff just in time to see Goofball Island fall into the dump.]

Joy What-- ?

[Joy watches it sink.]

DAD I get it, you need some alone time. We’ll talk later.

The Emotions stare out the back window in disbelief.

Disgust: We have a major problem.

Fear: Ohh, Joy where are you?

(Joy watches, still in shock.)

Sadness: Oh, we lost Goofball Island. That means she can lose Friendship, and Hockey, and Honesty, and Family...! You can fix this, right, Joy?

Joy: I-I...ah... I don't know. But we have to try. OK, come on.

[The sky darkens]

Joy: Riley's gone to sleep. Which is a good thing... When you think about it, because nothing else bad can happen while she's asleep. We'll be back to Headquarters before she wakes up. We'll just go across Friendship Island.

[Shelves jut out over the cliff edge, making Friendship Island inaccessible.]

Sadness: We’ll never make it, hoh... nooo...

Joy: No, no, no, don’t obsess over the weight of life’s problems! Remember the funny movie where the dog dies?!

[Sadness face plants.]

Joy: Sadness, we don’t have time for this.

[She looks to her side. Memory shelves wind into the distance. Joy heads off into the maze.]

Joy: We’ll just have to go around! Take the scenic route.

Sadness: Wait! Joy, you could get lost in there!

Joy: Think positive!

Sadness: Okay. I’m positive you will get lost in there. That’s Long-Term Memory. An endless warren of corridors and shelves. I read about it in the manuals.

Joy: The manuals? The manuals! You read the manuals!

Sadness Yeah...

Joy So you know the way back to headquarters!

Sadness I, guess...

Joy You are my map! Let’s go! Lead on, Mind Map! Show me where we’re going!

Sadness Okay! Only, I’m too sad to walk. Just give me a few... hours.

[Joy grabs Sadness’ leg and DRAGS her into the shelves.]

Joy Which way? Left?

Sadness Right. (Joy turns right) No. I mean, go left. I said left was right, like “correct.”

Joy Okay.

Sadness This actually feels kind of nice.

[Joy heads off into the COMPLICATED LABYRINTH ahead of them.]

Joy Okay! Here we go. We’ll be back to Headquarters before morning. We can do it. This’ll be easy. This is working!

[Hours later]

Joy: [exhausted] This is not working. Are we getting close?

Sadness: Yeah. Just another right. And a left. Then another left, and a right...

Joy: Are you sure you know where we’re going? Because we seem to be walking AWAY from Headquarters.

[The SKY BRIGHTENS]

Joy: Riley’s awake.

[Even though she is still exhausted, the core memories begin to drop. Sadness reaches to grab it.]

Joy Ah ah ah, don’t touch, remember? If you touch them, they stay sad!

Sadness Oh. Sorry. I won’t... ..starting now.

[Joy looks behind her. The bottom row of memories are BLUE.]

Joy [defeated] I can’t take much more of this.

MALE FORGETTER (O.S.) Forget ‘em!

Joy: Mind Workers!

[Joy runs off toward the voice.]

Sadness: But Joy, we’re almost... ohhhh.

[LATER Joy finds two workers vacuuming up memories from the shelves.]

FEMALE FORGETTER Phone numbers. We don’t need all of these. They’re in her phone.

MALE FORGETTER Just forget all of that. Please.

Joy Excuse me. Hi.

Male Forgetter: Forget it!

Joy: I need to find Friendship Island...

FEMALE FORGETTER (pointing to memories) Look at this. Four years of piano lessons.

MALE FORGETTER Yeah, looks pretty faded.

FEMALE FORGETTER You know what? Save "Chopsticks” and “Heart and Soul,” get rid of the rest.

[Zoop! The memories get vacuumed up.]

JOY Are you--

FEMALE FORGETTER U.S. Presidents. What do you think?

MALE FORGETTER Eh, just keep Washington, Lincoln and the fat one.

FEMALE FORGETTER Forget ‘em!

Joy: Hey! You can’t throw those away! Those are perfectly good memories.

MALE FORGETTER The names of every “Cutie Pie Princess” doll?

Joy: Yes! That is critical information! Glitterstorm, Honeypants, Officer Justice...

FEMALE FORGETTER Forget ‘em!

[He vacuums up the memories behind Joy. The memories shoot out a sewer pipe and fall into the darkness of the Memory Dump.]

Joy: Hey! Bring those back.

FEMALE FORGETTER They’re in the dump. Nothing comes back from the dump.

MALE FORGETTER Yeah. Look lady, this is our job, OK?

FEMALE FORGETTER When Riley doesn’t care about a memory, it fades.

Joy: Fades?

FEMALE FORGETTER Happens to the best of ‘em.

MALE FORGETTER (pulls memory from a cart) Except for this bad boy! This one will NEVER fade.

Joy: (recognizing it) The song from the gum commercial?

MALE FORGETTER (conspiratorial) Sometimes we send that one up to headquarters for no reason.

FEMALE FORGETTER It just plays in Riley’s head over and over again. Like a million times! Ha! Let’s watch it again!

[She rewinds it and plays it again. They sing along.]

Joy: We all know the song. Okay. Yup. Real catchy.

MALE FORGETTER (to Female Forgetter) What do ya think? Should we do it?

FEMALE FORGETTER Yeah! Ha ha!

MALE FORGETTER OK, here we go! Ha ha ha!

[He tips the gum memory into the inner workings of the shelf. FWOOM! It shoots up towards Headquarters. Fear, Anger and Disgust are having a peaceful morning. The memory drops into Headquarters, playing at full volume.]

GUM MEMORY Tripledent gum will make you smile! Tripledent gum! It lasts a while-

Anger: Wha-- this again!?!

[The Forgetters walk away, laughing and singing.]

Joy: (following them) Wait! Do you know how to get to Friendship Island?!

(Riley is having a FaceTime call with Meg.)

Riley: ♪ TripleDent gum... (Hums the rest)

Meg: Do you like it there? Did you feel any earthquakes? Is the bridge cool?

Riley: Yeah, it's good. What happened with the playoffs?

Meg: We won the first game. Coach says we might actually go to the finals this year. Oh, and we got this new girl on the team. She's so cool!

- Ah, she did not just say that!

- A new girl? Meg has a new friend already?

- Grr!

- Hey-hey! Stay happy. We do not wanna lose any more islands here, guys.

We can pass the puck to each other without even looking. It's like mind reading.

You like to read minds, Meg? I got something for you to read right here!

Fear: W-wait, let's just be calm for 1 sec...

Riley: I gotta go.

Meg: What?

Riley: (angrily) I GOTTA GO! (furiously slams her laptop closed)

[Joy follows the Forgetters, trying to get directions. They ignore her, singing the gum-commercial jingle.]

Joy: Could you just please tell me which way is...

[A horrible mechanical GROANING sound. Joy reacts.]

Joy: Oh no!

[Joy rounds a corner and sees Friendship Island crumbling.]

Joy: Friendship Island! What?

[She looks on in horror as Friendship Island falls.]

Joy: Ohh, not Friendship.

[Joy hugs the core memories. One of them is memory of young Riley and Meg walking together.]

Sadness: Oh, Riley loved that one. And now it's GONE. Goodbye friendship, hello loneliness.

[Joy sees Hockey Island in the distance.]

Joy: (trying to stay positive) We’ll just have to go the long way.

[They turn to look back into the deep memory shelves.]

Sadness: Yeah. The long, long, looong way. I’m ready.

[Sadness lies down on the ground, offering her leg. Joy sighs. She doesn’t want to do this again.]

Joy There’s gotta be a better way.

BING BONG (O.S.) (talking to the memories) Ohhh, look at you, you’re a KEEPER!

Joy Huh?

[Joy sees a strange figure up ahead, gathering memories.]

BING BONG I will take you, but not you. (beat) Oh who am I kidding, I can’t leave you!

Joy Hello!

The figure sees Joy -- and bolts.

Joy: (CONT’D) Wait! Hey, wait! Stop! Joy chases after him.

Joy rounds a corner to find the figure crouched on the ground, hiding his face in his hands like a three year old.

Joy Excuse me...?

BING BONG (jumping up; cornered) Ahhhh! Uh, I was looking for, uh-- (grabs a memory) --DIVERSION!

He THROWS IT and makes a run for it.

BING BONG (CONT’D) Ha ha! So long, sucker!

He immediately crashes into a cart of memories.

BING BONG (CONT’D) Ow! Oww, I hurt all over.

JOY Wait. I know you.

BING BONG No you don’t. I get that a lot, I look like a lot of people.

JOY No, I do! Bing Bong! Riley’s Imaginary Friend!

BING BONG You really DO know me?

JOY Well of course! Riley loved playing with you, you two were best friends! Oh! You would know. We’re trying to get back to Headquarters...

BING BONG Headquarters? You guys are from Headquarters?

JOY (mock modesty) Well, yeah. I’m Joy. This is Sadness.

BING BONG You’re Joy? THE Joy?

JOY Mm-hmm.

BING BONG Well what the heck are you doing out here?

JOY That's a good question! You want to answer that, Sadness?

BING BONG Without you, Riley won’t ever be happy. We can't have that, we gotta get you back! I’ll tell you what, follow me.

JOY Oh, thank you!

Bing Bong leads them on through the memory shelves.

JOY It is so great to see you again. I gotta tell you, I am such a huge fan of your work. Do you remember when you and Riley were in a band?

FLASH CUTS of their adventures: *Riley bangs on pots and pans, Bing Bong plays his trunk.

JOY (V.O.) I went to all of your concerts.

BING BONG (V.O.) Yeah, I blow a mean nose.

*Bing Bong runs on ceiling, Riley chases after him.

JOY (V.O.) Watching you play tag was such a treat.

BING BONG (V.O.) Two-time world champ.

*Riley and Bing Bong sit in her wagon (”rocket”).

JOY (V.O.) Oh, and remember your rocket?!

BING BONG (V.O.) Of course! It runs on song power.

JOY That’s right, your theme song! (singing) Who's your friend who likes to play?

BING BONG (sings) BING BONG BING BONG!

JOY His rocket makes you yell “Hooray!”

BING BONG/JOY BING BONG BING BONG!

[Sadness eyes Bing Bong, who is a pink elephant made with a cat tail.]

SADNESS What exactly are you supposed to be?

BING BONG You know, it’s unclear. I’m mostly cotton candy, but shape-wise, I’m part cat, part elephant, part dolphin.

JOY Dolphin?

[Bing Bong does a spot-on dolphin impression.]

BING BONG You gotta remember, when Riley was three, animals were all the rage. The cow goes moo. The horse goes neigh. That’s all people talked about back then.

JOY Yeah, I guess that’s true. What are you doing out here?

BING BONG Well, there’s not much call for imaginary friends lately, so, uh, you know, I’m...

JOY Hey, hey, don’t be sad. Tell you what, when I get back up to Headquarters, I’ll make sure Riley remembers you.

BING BONG You will?

JOY Of course, she’d love that!

BING BONG Ha ha! This is the greatest day of my life!

He launches into a jig, but hurts himself and bursts into tears. Candy pours out of his tear ducts.

JOY Are you okay?

SADNESS What’s going on?

BING BONG I cry candy. Try the caramel, it’s delicious.

JOY Ooo. (fumbles memories) Woah!

BING BONG Oh-- here-- use this. (offers his satchel)

JOY Thanks!

BING BONG Oh, hold on. Wait a second.

[He empties out an impossible amount of stuff: tons of memories, a boot, an anchor, a cat... Joy and Sadness stare in amazement.]

Bing Bong: What? It’s imaginary.

[Joy accepts the satchel and puts in the core memories.]

Joy: Thanks! This’ll make it a lot easier to walk back to Headquarters.

BING BONG Walk? We’re not walkin’! We’re taking the Train of Thought!

He points to the train speeding towards Headquarters.

JOY The train, of course! That is so much faster! But how do we catch it?

BING BONG Well, it kind of goes all over the place, but there is a station in Imaginationland. I know a short cut. Come on, this way!

JOY I’m so glad we ran into you!

[A giant BUILDING blocks their progress. Bing Bong opens a door. It’s dark inside.]

BING BONG The station is right through here.

[The train station is visible through a door on the other side.]

BING BONG After you.

SADNESS Joy...

JOY What?

SADNESS I read about this place in the manual. We shouldn’t go in there.

JOY Bing Bong says it’s the quickest way to Headquarters.

SADNESS No, but Joy, this is Abstract Thought.

BING BONG What’re you talking about? I go in here all the time. It’s a shortcut, see?

He points to a “Danger” sign above the door.

BING BONG: D-A-N-G-E-R: shortcut. I’ll prove it to you. (he climbs in) Look at me! I’m closer to the station ‘cause I’m taking the shortcut!

Sadness: Let’s go around. This way.

She points: the building is huge -- it’s a long way around.

BING BONG Almost there...!

[Joy looks back at Bing Bong. The station is right there.]

JOY (to Sadness) If you want to walk the long way, go for it. But Riley needs to be happy. I‘m not missing that train. (walks in) Bing Bong knows what he’s doing. He's part dolphin. They're very smart.

SADNESS Well, I guess...

[She climbs in.]

OK, what abstract concept are we trying to comprehend today?

Ahm, loneliness.

Hm, looks like there's something in there. I'm gonna turn it on for a minute and burn out the gunk.

Bing Bong: What did I tell ya? You'll be in Headquarters in no time! Hey, will you look at that?

Joy: Woah! What's happening?

Sadness: Oh no, they turned it on.

Bing Bong:Huh? (His head changes into a picasso-like form) Never seen this before.

Both: Aahh! (They change too) AAAAHHH!!!

Bing Bong: My face! My beautiful face! (His body changes)

Joy: What is going on?

Sadness: We're abstracting! There are four stages. This is the first: Non-objective fragmentation!

Bing Bong: Alright, do not panic! What is important is that we all stay together. (His arm falls off) Oh!

Joy: Ah!

[Joy's head falls off followed by Sadness who topples.]

Sadness: We're in the second stage, we’re deconstructing!

Bing Bong: Run! [falls into pieces] Ah, I can't feel my legs! Oh, there they are.

Joy: Come here, me!

[They gather their pieces as they rush to the exit.]

Sadness: We gotta get outta here, OW! Before we're nothing but shape and color! OW! We'll get stuck here forever!

Joy: "Stuck?!" Why did we come in here?

Bing Bong: I told you, it's a shortcut!

Joy: The Train!

(The view squeezes out to black; when it squeezes back in, now everything has become 2D-flash animated with Joy, Sadness, and Bing Bong as flat shapes.)

Sadness: Oh no, we're two dimensional! That's stage three!

Joy: We're getting nowhere!

Bing Bong: Depth! I'm lacking depth!

Joy: Come on! We can't fit!

(He suddenly changes into a single spiral representation; Joy turns into a starburst. Bing Bong into a cone and Sadness turns into a raindrop, as everything but the door vanishes.)

Sadness: Oh no, we're non-figurative! This is the last stage!

Bing Bong: We're not gonna make it!

(She flops on the ground; suddenly, the side of her shape is revealed to be just a line.)

Sadness: Wait, we're two dimensional. Fall on your face!

[The three lines land outside just as the train pulls out. They get up to go, but as lines they can barely move.]

Joy: Stop! STOP!

[Joy goes from non-representational to two-dimensional. She falls down flat as the train speeds off. POP! The three transform back to normal.]

Joy: ((to Bing Bong) Oh no! You said that was a shortcut.

Bing Bong: I did, but wow, we should NOT have gone in there. That was dangerous! They really should put up a sign.

Joy How long till the next train?

Bing Bong: Who knows? But don’t worry. There’s another station. That way! The train always stops there right before it goes to Headquarters. If we hurry, we can catch it!

Joy This isn’t another one of your short cuts, is it?

Bing Bong: (laughing exuberantly) Yeah!

[Joy skeptically watches him head off.]

Joy (to Sadness) Is there really another station?

SADNESS Uh-huh. Through there.

Bing Bong leads them towards the impressive gates of...

BING BONG Welcome to Imagination land!

JOY Imagination land?

Bing Bong: Sure! I come here all the time. I’m practically the mayor. Hey, you guys hungry? There’s French Fry Forest! (starts eating) Nom nom nom, delicious!

[Joy is loving this.]

JOY No way!

BING BONG Check it out! Trophy Town! Medals! Ribbons! Everyone’s a winner!

Bing Bong kicks a soccer ball into a giant goal and workers appear out of nowhere to shower him with awards.

BING BONG I won first place!

[Workers give Joy a medal and Sadness a ribbon.]

JOY Me too!

SADNESS Hohh... Participation award...

JOY Wait, is that-- Sadness, look, it’s Cloud Town! That is my favorite!

Joy rips off a chunk of cloud and floats up into the air.

JOY (CONT’D) It's so soft!

Joy jumps down and runs off.

BING BONG Woah! Let me try!

Bing Bong rips off some cloud. A CLOUD MAN emerges from the house, angry.

CLOUD MAN Hey! What’s the big idea? You’d better fix that wall, or else you’re in big troub--

POOF! Bing Bong blows the Cloud Man away and walks off nervously.

Joy and Bing Bong gleefully jump between couch cushions.

JOY Oh no, lava! Whooo!

BING BONG Whawhoooo! Imagination land is the best!

Sadness tries to jump to a rock, barely makes it.

SADNESS Is it all going to be so interactive?

BING BONG Hey, look! The House of Cards!! Ooh, wait, hang on just a minute...

From a nearby garage made of cards, Bing Bong pulls a wagon.

JOY Your rocket!

BING BONG Yeah! I stashed it in there for safekeeping. Now I’m all set to take Riley to the MOON!

He gestures proudly -- accidentally knocking over the house.

BING BONG (CONT’D) Oh, I’m sorry.

HOUSE OF CARDS WORKER Great.

JOY I love Imagination land!

BING BONG Isn’t it great? And there’s always something new, like...

A giant machine. A conveyer belt reveals a handsome teenager.

BING BONG (CONT’D) Who the heck is that?

BOYFRIEND GENERATOR WORKER Imaginary Boyfriend.

IMAGINARY BOYFRIEND I would die for Riley.

[Joy grimaces.]

BING BONG I’ve never seen him before.

IMAGINARY BOYFRIEND I live in Canada.

BING BONG Anyway. This way, through Preschool World! We’re nearly to the train!

JOY Riley, here we come!

Mom and Riley sit on the bleachers.

Mrs. Andersen: This should be fun. New team, new friends! These kids look pretty good -- considering they're from San Francisco. Heh heh!

HOCKEY COACH (O.S.) Okay Andersen, you're up!

RILEY I gotta go.

Riley heads onto the ice.

Mrs. Andersen: Okay. Good luck, sweetie!

DISGUST Luck isn’t gonna help us now. If she tries to use Hockey Island, it’s going down.

Fear: Which is why I’ve recalled every hockey memory I can think of.

The Emotions are standing ankle deep in memories.

FEAR (CONT’D) One of these has got to work in place of the core memory.

ANGER/DISGUST She’s about to play!/Hurry!

Fear loads a memory into the core holder.

Riley skates onto the ice. INT. HEADQUARTERS Out the window, Hockey Island lights up feebly.

FEAR Ha ha! We did it gang! It’s working--

BOOM! The Core Memory Holder ejects a memory, slamming Anger in the face. Hockey Island shakes. Fear SHRIEKS. Riley struggles to dribble the puck.

HOCKEY COACH Line change! Line change! Change it up! Change it up!

Fear frantically loads memories into the Holder, which spits them out like dodge balls. Disgust and Anger run for cover. The Holder spins furiously, flinging Fear against the window. Memories pelt him.

DISGUST (hiding behind a sofa) It’s like we don't learn anything.

HOCKEY COACH Let’s pick it up out there!

Riley attempts to slap the puck, misses, and TRIPS.

ANGER That’s it! I

FEAR No, no, no, breathe! Find your happy place--

Anger grabs Fear by the neck and ricochets him off the console, then furiously takes the controls. Riley angrily throws her stick to the ice and skates off. The other players stop and watch.

Mrs. Andersen: Riley, what's wrong?

Riley: Let's go.

Mrs. Andersen: You're not going to finish tryouts?

Riley: What's the point?!

Mrs. Andersen: Hey, it'll be alright. Let's just go back...

Riley: Stop saying everything will be alright!!!

Nice hustling, ladies!

[Joy turns around and watches Hockey Island crumble.]

Joy: Hockey? Oh no... no, she loves hockey. She can’t give up hockey.

[She pulls out the Hocky core memory]

Joy: Bing Bong, we have to get to that station.

BING BONG Sure thing. This way, just past Graham Cracker Castle. Hey. That’s weird. Graham Cracker Castle used to be right here. I wonder why they moved it?

[He walks on, concerned, LEAVING HIS WAGON BEHIND HIM.]

Bing Bonb: Wow, that’s not... I would have sworn Sparkle Pony Mountain was right here. Hey, what’s going on?

Joy: Yeah, yeah, I dunno, we’ll have to come back--

BING BONG Princess Dream World!

[A wrecking ball hits a pink castle. Glitter dust plumes.]

Bing Bong Oh no! The Stuffed Animal Hall of Fame!

[RIIIP! The head of a bear comes off. Too late, Bing Bong notices some construction workers CARRYING AWAY HIS ROCKET.]

BING BONG My rocket! (running after them) Wait! Riley and I, we’re still using that rocket! It still has some song power left!! (sings) Who's your friend who likes to play?

THE ROCKET RESPONDS weakly, propelling it forward. The workers toss it onto a junk pile. A bulldozer pushes the pile towards the CLIFF EDGE.

BING BONG Nooo!!! No! No! No! You can’t take my rocket to the dump! Riley and I are going to the MOON! Ahhh!

Over it goes, into the darkness.

BING BONG Riley can’t be done with me.

[Bing Bong sits, stunned. Joy approaches gingerly.]

Joy Hey, it’s going to be okay. We can fix this! We just need to get back to Headquarters. Which way to the train station?

BING BONG (still stunned) I had a whole trip planned for us.

Joy tries another tactic.

Joy Hey, who’s ticklish, huh? Here comes the tickle monster...

No response.

JOY (CONT’D) Hey! Bing Bong, look at this! Dohoioih!

She makes a silly face. Nothing.

Joy Oh, here’s a fun game! You point to the train station and we all go there! Won’t that be fun? Come on, let’s go to the train station!

[Joy walks off, attempting to lead.]

Sadness: (sits beside Bing Bong) I’m sorry they took your rocket. They took something that you loved. It’s gone, forever.

Joy: Sadness, don’t make him feel worse.

Sadness: Sorry.

BING BONG It’s all I had left of Riley.

SADNESS I bet you and Riley had great adventures.

BING BONG They were wonderful. Once we flew back in time. We had breakfast twice that day.

SADNESS That’s sounds amazing. I bet Riley liked it.

BING BONG Oh she did. We were best friends.

SADNESS Yeah. It’s sad.

[Bing Bong puts his head on Sadness’ shoulder and CRIES. Sadness keeps her arm around him until he’s done.]

BING BONG I’m okay now. (stands) C’mon, the train station is this way.

He walks off. Joy and Sadness follow.

Joy: How did you do that?

SADNESS I don’t know. He was sad, so I listened to what--

BING BONG (O.S.) Hey, there’s the train!

[Our trio climb aboard just as the train moves.]

Joy We made it! We’re finally going to get home!

[Twirling, she knocks over two boxes labeled “FACTS” and “OPINIONS.” Small objects spill out of both.]

Joy: Oh no! These Facts and Opinions look so similar!

He dumps them into the “FACTS” box.

BING BONG Eh, don’t worry about it -- happens all the time.

DISGUST On a scale of one to ten, I give this day an F.

ANGER Well why don’t we quit standing around and DO something?

DISGUST Like what, genius?

[Fear enters with a suitcase.]

FEAR Like quitting! That’s what I’m doing.

He stomps on the recall button.

FEAR (CONT’D) Sure, it’s the coward’s way out. But this coward is gonna survive!

[The tube drops over him, but pummels Fear with dozens of memories. The tube shuts off and retracts. Fear drops to the floor in pain.]

DISGUST Emotions can’t quit, genius.

Fear spits up a memory.

DISGUST (CONT’D) Euch! I thought we were supposed to be keeping Riley happy.

ANGER Wait a minute. Wait a minute!

Anger runs to the back and rummages the cubby through the ideas.

Fear: What is it?

Anger: (holds up the lightbulb) Oh nothing. Just the best idea ever.

DISGUST What?

ANGER All the good core memories were made in Minnesota. Ergo, we go back to Minnesota and make more. Ta-da!

Fear: Wait. You’re saying we run away?

Anger: Well, I wouldn’t call it that. I’d call it, “The Happy Core Memory Development Program.”

Fear: You can’t be serious.

ANGER Hey. Our life was perfect until Mom and Dad decided to move to San Fran Stinktown.

FEAR But, I mean, it’s just so drastic!

ANGER Need I remind you of how great things were there? Our room? Our back yard? Our friends?

He punches up a memory. It plays on the screen.

GUM MEMORY Tripledent gum will make you smile! Tripledent gum it lasts--

Anger: Did I ASK for the gum commercial?!?! (he ejects the memory) Anyway, it was better, that’s my point.

Disgust (considering) Riley was happier in Minnesota...

Fear: Wait, hold on. Shouldn’t we just sleep on this or something?

Anger: Fine. Let’s sleep on it. Because hey, I’m sure jolly fun-filled times are just around the corner.

[As Joy, Sadness and Bing Bong are on their way to HQ, the train slows to a stop. Confused, Joy looked over as the engineer and his assistant hop off the engine.]

Joy: Hey! Why aren’t we moving?

TRAIN ENGINEER Riley’s gone to sleep. We’re all on break.

Sadness: You mean we’re stuck here until morning?

BING BONG Yeah, the Train of Thought doesn’t run while she’s asleep.

Joy: Oh, we can’t wait that long!

Sadness: How about we wake her up?

Joy Sadness, that’s ridiculous. How could we possibly...

[She follows Sadness’ gaze and spots DREAM PRODUCTIONS.]

Joy: How about we wake her up?

Sadness: Great idea, Joy.

Joy: Thanks. Come on!

[Later, they arrived at Dream Productions.]

Joy: Whoa! This place is huge.

Sadness: Yeah, it looks so much smaller than I expected.

[They walk past dream “movie posters.”]

Bing Bong: Whoa! “I Can Fly”? I love that one!

Joy spots a Unicorn sitting in a director’s chair.

JOY Rainbow Unicorn! She’s RIGHT THERE!

Joy tries to play it cool as they walk past.

Sadness: My friend says you’re famous. She wants your autograph.

Joy: No, no, Sadness, don’t bother Miss Unicorn, okay? (to unicorn) Sorry, she’s from outta town. So embarrassing, right?

She pushes Sadness away. Joy pops back in.

Joy: I loved you in Fairy Dream Adventure Part 7. Okay, bye. I love you.

They reach STAGE B. A sign below a red flashing light reads, “DO NOT ENTER WHEN LIGHT FLASHING.”

BING BONG Huh. Wonder what that means. Oh well, let’s go in!

Set up the classroom set. Today's memories are in. We've got a lot to work with here. Riley dumped her best friend, had a miserable day at school and quit hockey. The writers have put together a killer script.

Fear: Just because Joy and Sadness are gone, I have to do stupid dream duty.

Joy: Okay, how are we gonna wake her up?

Sadness: Well, she wakes up sometimes when she has a scary dream. We could scare her.

Joy: Scare her? No no, she’s been through enough already.

Sadness: But Joy--

Joy: Sadness, you may know your way around down here, but I know Riley! We’re gonna make her so happy she’ll wake up with exhilaration! We’ll excite her awake!

Sadness: That’s never happened before.

[Joy spots a nearby dog costume and tosses it to Sadness.]

Joy: Ooh, Riley loves dogs. Put this on!

Sadness: I don’t think that’ll work.

Joy: Bing Bong.

BING BONG Yeah?

[She gives him the satchel containing the CORE MEMORIES.]

Joy: Don’t let anything happen to these.

BING BONG Got it!

DREAM DIRECTOR checks the monitor.

DREAM DIRECTOR Mm hm. Add the reality distortion filter.

A WORKER slips a filter over the camera lens, transforming the MIND WORKERS into replicates of Riley’s classmates.

DREAM DIRECTOR (CONT’D) Love it. (to actors) Remember, play to the camera, everyone! Riley is the camera! Makeup, get out of there, we are on in 5,4,3...

A UNION HARP PLAYER strums: the dream is starting. From the camera’s POV: the classroom set. STUDENTS at desks. An EXTRA playing Riley’s teacher reads cue cards badly.

EXTRA Hello class. Before we begin today’s pop quiz, which counts for 90% of your final grade...

Fear: Man, she is one bad actress.

The CUE CARD GUY flips over the next card.

EXTRA: ...I want to introduce our new student. Riley. Would you like to stand up and introduce yourself?

DREAM DIRECTOR Camera.

[The camera adjusts as if Riley is standing.]

DREAM DIRECTOR And... cue Riley.

[A CREW MEMBER clears his throat and reads into a megaphone.]

RILEY VOICE My name’s Riley Andersen, I’m from Minnesota and now I live here.

[A STUDENT points to the camera.]

STUDENT #1 Ew, look! Her teeth are falling
