FADE IN:

EXT. - DIMMSDALE CONVENTION CENTER - MORNING

Push in on a long LINE OF KIDS in various costume. They are waiting to get into some sort of event.

CLOSER ON TIMMY

He holds a COMIC BOOK.

TIMMYOh boy! The Comic Book, Fantasy and Reality avoidance expo! Where people who like this stuff can get together and prove they’re not geeks!

WIDEN TO REVEAL CHESTER wearing Conan the Barbarian type clothing and AJ dressed in an outlandish alien COSTUME.

CHESTERVerily!

AJAffirmative, Timmy.

Timmy holds his comic up.

TIMMYAnd this year, I’m gonna get my comic signed by the Crimson Chin! He’s the greatest super hero ever!

CHESTERI’m here for the costume contest.

AJThere’s a costume contest?

DISSOLVE TO:

INT. - DIMMSDALE CONVENTION CENTER - MOMENTS LATER

This is a typical geek-fest: COMIC BOOK FANS in costume, VENDING BOOTHS and a whole lot of acne. Timmy waits eagerly at the foot of a STAGE near a “meet the Crimson Chin” sign.

TIMMYCool! The Crimson Chin! I wish Cosmo and Wanda could be here to see this!

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 3

WIDEN TO REVEAL COSMO AND WANDA floating right next to him! In broad daylight! What the poof?

COSMOHi Timmy!

TIMMYHi Cosmo! Hi Wanda! (beat)WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

Timmy tries to hide them behind his 10 year old frame.

TIMMY You know the rules! If anybody finds you, I never get to see you again!

COSMORelax! We’re here every year!

WANDAEverybody’s in costume! Nobody ever knows we’re real!

CUT TO:

EXT. - DIMMSDALE CONVENTION CENTER - SAME TIME

MR. CROCKER stands on a SOAP BOX in front of a BANNER reading “Fairies Are Real.”

MR. CROCKER Fairies are real! Real I tell you!

He starts to step off the box. TWO COPS ZIP into frame, brandishing NIGHT STICKS.

COP ONEFifty yards, crackpot. You know the drill.

Crocker nervously steps back on his soap box.

MR. CROCKERWell, they are...

CUT TO:

BACK ON COSMO, WANDA AND TIMMY

WANDA

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 4

As long as everybody thinks we’re big headed kids in costumes, we haven’t broken the rules!

A WOMAN, dressed as a COMPOST-COVERED WOOD NYMPH walks by. She looks at Cosmo.

WOOD NYMPHNice wings, big headed kid.

COSMOThanks! Great use of mulch!

She walks past.

COSMOSee?

Cosmo and Wanda high five.

TIMMYAre there other Fairies here?

WANDASure! Look...

ANGLE ON: JORGEN VON STRANGLE

Jorgen stands at a COMIC DEALER’s BOOTH.

COSMO (O.S.)It’s Jorgen Von Strangle! The toughest fairy in the universe!

JORGENDo you have Pretty Pony #2 and 3?

COMIC DEALERNo?

Jorgen brandishes his MIGHTY LASER WAND at the dealer’s chest.

JORGENDraw them.

COMIC DEALERI can’t draw.

JORGENLearn!!!

The dealer starts scribbling furiously.

BACK ON COSMO, WANDA AND TIMMY

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 5

Chester and AJ walk into scene as the lights dim.

TIMMYHe’s here! He’s here!

ANNOUNCERLadies and gentlemen, please welcome your favorite super hero and mine - THE CRIMSON CHIN!

The SPOTLIGHT hits the stage, revealing the CRIMSON CHIN! But then his hairy gut pops out of his suit and we see that he’s merely a bad actor with a fake chin. The crowd laughs.

WANDAWow. The Crimson Chin really let himself go.

AJ pulls out a BODY-FAT MEASURER and pinches one of the Chin’s LOVE HANDLES.

AJEverybody knows REAL superheroes have five percent body fat! This guy’s at 102!

CHESTERThey should call him the Crimson Double Chin.

Everybody laughs at Chester’s joke. Timmy storms off frame, disappointed. Cosmo and Wanda follow.

TIMMYI can already feel this scarring me for life.

ACTOR PLAYING CHIN(looking at Timmy)

You?

DISSOLVE TO:

ANOTHER PART OF THE EXPO

Cosmo and Wanda try to comfort Timmy.

TIMMYThat Crimson Chin stinks!

COSMOLooks like he eats too!

TIMMYI wish the real Crimson Chin were here!

COSMO

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 6

Hey, we can do that! One hero...

WANDA...with everything on it!

Wanda hits the comic book cover with her wand and the Chin materializes in front of Timmy!

TIMMYCool! It’s the real Crimson Chin!

CRIMSON CHIN...In the name of all that is right, I... (disoriented) ...what? Huh?

The Chin spins his head, knocking over a bunch of tables.

CRIMSON CHINWhere am I?

TIMMYYou’re in Dimmsdale! And I’m Timmy! I’m your biggest fan!

CRIMSON CHINI was just in an heroic battle of Good vs. Evil when I suddenly appeared... Great Jaws of Justice!

CHIN’S POINT OF VIEW:

The Chin scans the convention, mistaking the Sci-Fi fans for actual villains.

He spots A WOMAN, dressed in a combination Elvira / Susie Home Maker costume, holding a glowing red SPATULA.

CRIMSON CHIN (O.S.)Spatula Woman!

The Chin sweeps Timmy behind him.

He sees A PIMPLE-FACED KID, dressed like a country bumpkin, holding a PIG over his head.

CRIMSON CHIN (O.S.)Country Boy! With one of his deadly exploding pig grenades!

The pig squeals.

We PAN OVER TO SEE A MAN DRESSED LIKE THE BRONZE KNEE CAP.

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 7

CRIMSON CHIN (V.O.)And my arch nemesis! The Bronze Knee Cap!

BACK ON THE CHIN AND TIMMY.

CRIMSON CHIN Clearly, I’ve stumbled into some sort of massive, super villain team-up!

WANDAHe thinks they’re actual bad guys!

COSMOAnd with his powers, he’s gonna rip through them like tissue! Neat!

The Chin hurls himself at the “Villains.”

CRIMSON CHINEAT CHIN, FELONS!

TIMMYNo! I wish his powers didn’t work!

Cosmo and Wanda raise their wands and POOF! The Chin’s powers vanish and he slams into the ground. Another KID, dressed like a Japanese MANGA CHARACTER, walks up.

MANGA KIDCool wands! Where’d you get ‘em?

COSMO AND WANDAUh... Internet.

Several KIDS near the Crimson Chin, including AJ, laugh. AJ checks his body fat.

AJ5.01 percent. Poser.

AJ walks O.S.

CRIMSON CHINMy powers... gone! There must be some Chintonite in this facility.

The Crimson Chin looks up at Timmy, who still holds his comic book. The Chin sees himself on the cover, stands up and starts flipping through the pages. We see panel after panel of the Crimson Chin’s life in the book.

CRIMSON CHIN

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 8

Holy Hygienist! This periodical... it reveals my secret identity...

TIMMYYeah! Charles Hampton Indigo! Lantern-jawed reporter for the Daily Blabbity!

CRIMSON CHINQuiet! ...and the location of the Chin Strap of solitude...

TIMMYYeah! Just outside of Chincinatti!

CRIMSON CHINStop that! And my dimple size! That’s... so personal! But... but how?

TIMMYWell... You’re a made up character in my world.

CRIMSON CHINI don’t understand.

TIMMYDid you have an imaginary friend when you were a kid?

CRIMSON CHINSure! Eddie, the furry gerbil! He was always so cute and...

TIMMYWell, that’s you.

CRIMSON CHINI’m... an imaginary gerbil?

TIMMY(beat) Basically. (beat) Hey, are you okay?

CRIMSON CHINOh, I’m fine... I... I’m just dealing with the fact that I DON’T EXIST!

TIMMYBut...

CRIMSON CHINWhatever. Just put me back in my stupid, made up book. I have to go be “fictional.”

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 9

TIMMYOkay. I wish you were back in the book with all your powers.

Cosmo and Wanda wave their wands and the Chin magically “swirls” into the book.

CUT TO:

INT. - COMIC BOOK - A WORLD OF PANELS - SIMULTANEOUS

We are now in the brightly colored world of the Crimson Chin. COUNTRY BOY and the BRONZE KNEE CAP stand over the Chin. Country Boy holds a PIG GRENADE.

BRONZE KNEE CAPI, the Bronze Knee Cap, with my Big Bronze Knee cap, shall...

CRIMSON CHINDo you mind? I’m having a bit of a breakdown here.

The Crimson Chin curls into a fetal position and sucks his thumb. The pig Squeals.

COUNTRY BOYYa think the rains’ll hurt the rhubarb?

BRONZE KNEE CAPSilence, Bumpkin!

CUT TO:

INT. - DIMMSDALE CONVENTION CENTER - SAME TIME

Timmy and the Godparents close the comic book nervously.

WANDAWow. He sure seems upset.

TIMMYThat’s okay. He’s a hero! Soon, everything will be fine in the world of the Crimson Chin!

CUT TO:

TV MONITOR

ON A MALE AND A FEMALE NEWSCASTER

MALE NEWSCASTER

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 10

Everything is not fine in the world of the Crimson Chin! Right Sharon?

A CHYRON comes up with the Chin lying in fetal position.

FEMALE NEWSCASTERRight, Bob. We’ve learned that the latest Crimson Chin issue has everyone’s favorite hero lying in a fetal position, crying for 32 full pages! The book’s cancellation is imminent!

MALE NEWSCASTERWhich is not fine!!

PULL BACK TO REVEAL

Timmy, Cosmo and Wanda watch the newscast. Timmy spies a TRASH CAN, piled high with discarded Crimson Chin COMICS.

TIMMYHey! Why are the new Crimson Chin books in the trash?

As Timmy looks through the book, we see the Crimson Chin in different panels, balled up in a fetal position.

TIMMYFetal position... fetal position... fetal position... it’s true! This comic stinks now. And it’s all my fault!

COSMOReally? Cool! Usually it’s mine!

Wanda elbows him in the ribs.

COSMOI mean, I’m sorry. Timmy, is there anything we can do?

TIMMYMaybe I could go talk to him? Every Chin needs a shoulder to cry on, right? I wish I could be in the Crimson Chin’s comic book!

The godparents wave their wands and Timmy magically swirls into the comic book world.

CUT TO:

INT. - THE COMIC BOOK WORLD - SIMULTANEOUS

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 11

Timmy appears in the world of the Crimson Chin, right in front of the “DAILY BLABBITY.”

TIMMYCool! The Daily Blabbity!

Timmy steps into the next panel.

CUT TO:

INT. - HALLWAYS DAILY BLABBITY - LATER

Timmy walks through a hallway lined with doors and stops in front of one that reads “Charles Hampton INdigo - Ace Reporter.”

TIMMY And this is the office of Charles Hampton Indigo, who is secretly the Crimson Chin!

CHARLES HAMPTON INDIGO (O.S.)(Sobbing)

Timmy opens the door. Charles, his back to the door, sits behind a DESK in a SWIVEL CHAIR, wearing civilian clothes. His Clark Kent GLASSES rest on his Chin.

CHARLES HAMPTON INDIGO What? Who is it?

The Chin spins around, knocking everything off the desk with his gigantic chin.

CHARLES HAMPTON INDIGOYou! You’re the “real” boy who showed me I’m a big fat (by .01%) lie!

TIMMYCome on, Charles! You’re a hero! You gotta snap out of this! You have to remember the good times!

CHARLES HAMPTON INDIGOLike when?

Timmy looks over. We see a FUZZY PANEL BORDER.

TIMMY Like... Over there! It’s a flashback!

Timmy pulls the Chin over to the next comic book panel.

A SMALL-CHINNED CHARLES, sits at the DESK of a TALK SHOW SET, talking to a RADIOACTIVE, HANDSOME ACTOR.

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 12

TIMMY (O.S.)Like in issue #1! When you were just a struggling talk show host, bitten by a radioactive, handsome actor!

The actor bites down on Charles’ chin.

CHARLES HAMPTON INDIGO Ow!

Timmy and the Chin walk across the tops of the comic panels. They peer into another panel and see Charles, hunched over in his apartment, holding his head.

ON PANEL

CHARLES HAMPTON INDIGO Feel funny... Chin tingling...

His chin explodes and elongates. His entire body becomes instantly buff and covered in a red costume.

TIMMYThat handsome actor’s bite gave you amazing, chintastic powers and an amazing, chintastic costume! And you’ve been using them to fight evil ever since! (BEAT) And look! Evil!

Timmy points to another panel. The Bronze Knee Cap prepares to pounce in front of the First National BANK of Chincinatti.

BRONZE KNEE CAPHa! Now that the Crimson Chin is a wimp, Chincinatti will be mine!

He plows his kneecap into the bank wall, crumbling it.

TIMMYAre you gonna let him...

Timmy looks around, but the Chin is gone!!!

TIMMY Hello?

Charles walks over the tops of action panels, away from Timmy. Timmy catches up.

TIMMY Wait! You’ve got to stop him!

CHARLES HAMPTON INDIGOLeave me alone. I’m going to bed.

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 13

TIMMYBut it’s 10 AM!

The Crimson Chin stops at a nighttime panel in his apartment. We see a “Later that night” in the corner.

CHARLES HAMPTON INDIGONot in this panel.

He jumps into the panel, balls up and sucks his thumb.

ON TIMMY:

TIMMYMan, he’s depressed. He needs somebody at his side, to kick him into shape... What do they call those things? Oh yeah, sidekicks!

Timmy runs into an alley, grabs his shirt and prepares to rip it open.

TIMMYThis looks like a job for...

Timmy rips his clothes off revealing just his UNDIES. Embarrassed, he puts his pink hat in front of his privates.

TIMMY Hey!

CUT TO:

EXT. - DIMMSDALE CONVENTION CENTER - A LITTLE LATER

Cosmo and Wanda float over to Crocker.

MR. CROCKERFairies are real! Real I--

Crocker spots them mid-speech.

MR. CROCKER Hey! I know you two.

COSMONo you don’t!

WANDAWe’re just a couple of normal, every day, floating, big headed kids!

Crocker eyes them suspiciously.

COSMO

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 14

But have I got a secret for you.(whispering)

That kid over there is a REAL fairy.

MR. CROCKERI knew it!

ANGLE ON A LARGE KID

The KID wears a sweater with an “f” on it. Crocker leaps into frame, grabbing the back of her shirt.

MR. CROCKERA Fairy! And I captured her! She’s mine! Mine!

The kid in the fairy shirt pulls out PEPPER SPRAY and zaps Crocker. Crocker’s fingers unfold and the kid drops to the ground safely as the cops walk into frame.

MR. CROCKER AAAA!!!

COP ONEHi. Remember us?

The Cop grabs Crocker and pulls him O.S.

ON COSMO AND WANDA

MR. CROCKER (O.S.)No! They’re real! Listen to me!

WANDAThis is always my favorite part of the convention.

COSMORemember last year? That other kid with the pepper spray?

WANDAYeah. Those were good times.

They sigh. Suddenly, the comic book, under Cosmo’s arm, flaps around “angrily.”

TIMMY (O.S.)HEY!

Cosmo and Wanda look into the book to find Timmy buck naked and covering himself.

The Fairly OddParents: “Chin Up” by Steve Marmel Final Draft 4/27/00 15

TIMMY A little help please?

WANDAYou want us to come in there, sweetie?

TIMMYNo... But I could use a cool “side kick” costume!

Cosmo and Wanda wave their wands and POOF! With his back to the camera, Timmy is in his undies with a big birthday CANDLE on his head.

TIMMY What the...

COSMOYou’re Birthday Boy! With amazing birthday powers!

WANDAAnd you’re in your birthday suit!

TIMMY Great. Nothing strikes fear into the hearts of criminals like a naked kid. I wish I had a cool costume! Okay?

They raise their wands and POOF! Timmy gets a cool sidekick MASK, CAPE and JUTTING LITTLE CHIN.

TIMMY AS CLEFTPerfect! I’m off to fight crime as Cleft! THE BOY CHIN WONDER!

A GRAPPLING HOOK fires out of his chin. It latches to a distant BUILDING. He leaps off and swings out of frame.

TIMMY AS CLEFT With my Utility Cleft, I can swing from building to building!

Timmy swings to the next panel.

EXT. -BEHIND CHINCINATTI CITY HALL - DAY

Timmy, as Cleft, lands behind City Hall.

TIMMY AS CLEFTI’d better use the Chin signal!

Charles, in his underwear, eats out of a BAG OF CHIPS. He sees the Chin Signal in the sky, turns his head and knocks over everything in his chin’s path.

CHARLES HAMPTON INDIGO The Chin Signal! I know what I must do!

He instantly balls up into a fetal position and sucks his thumb. Timmy’s head peeks in from the other panel.

TIMMY AS CLEFTHey, you’re supposed to spring into action! Why aren’t you springing?

CHARLES HAMPTON INDIGOBecause this is all made up. What’s my motivation?

We hear people Screaming O.S.

TIMMY AS CLEFTTHAT! Those are real fictional people in real fictional danger!

The Chin begins to get a look of resolve.

CRIMSON CHINYou may be right. No more doubts. No more distractions!

We hear CHEESY SOAP OPERA MUSIC coming from the TV.
