nothing happens. How about another song?

Captain Feathersword tries to take a selfie using a timer. The first time, the timer goes off immediately. The second time, the Captain waits and waits, inching closer and closer to the camera. Eventually the timer goes off when he reaches for the camera, so he now has a great picture…of his teeth!
Jeff is on one side of the street and Officer Beaples stops him. Jeff joins Officer Beaples in a dance.
At the Wigglehouse, Anthony tries again to dance. The Wiggles suggest listening to another song.
