  Dilly just knows he is going to be the star of the school play. But this play is full of surprises and Dilly is only an extra! Mum and Dad are worried by Dilly's reaction, he pouts instead of screaming so they pay a visit to Dilly's teacher, Miss Daffy. Much to their relief she offers to make Dilly the play's narrator. When Dilly stands up to say the opening lines, the audience and actors are so noisy that he can't hear himself speak. So Dilly fires off a super scream that shuts everyone up. He is, as usual, star of the show and Mum and Dad are very relieved to have their old Dilly back.
