Inside the bright school cafeteria at lunchtime, a tuxedo-wearing goat stands at the food counter, head high beside trays of pepperoni pizza. Gabby giggles next to him while Principal Thunderpants frowns under buzzing fluorescent lights.
The goat strutted into the cafeteria, tuxedo shining. "One pepperoni pizza, please!" he declared. Gabby giggled, "Goats don’t eat pizza!" Thunderpants frowned, "No pizza for goats!" But Gabby whispered, "I’ll help you, Mr. Goat." They hatched a plan, full of secret dance moves.
Under dim after-school cafeteria lights, a tuxedo-wearing goat moonwalks past stacked mop buckets, one tray spinning above his hoof. Gabby crouches nearby snapping a phone photo while distant Principal Thunderpants stomps through the doorway.
Gabby tossed trays; the goat flipped them. He moonwalked past mop buckets, Gabby cheering softly. "You’re amazing," she whispered, snapping a photo. Thunderpants stomped by, but the goat hid—quick! Kids peeked around corners, grinning. "Show us a dance!" they whispered eagerly.
In the lunchroom bathed in colorful disco lights, a tuxedo-wearing goat mid-leap tap-dances on stacked milk cartons while kids with phones cheer around. Gabby stands front-left clapping with wide eyes beside a portable speaker and spilled cartons.
Music boomed. The goat dazzled—leaping, twirling, tap-dancing on milk cartons. Kids cheered and filmed every move. Gabby clapped, "Go, Goat!" Then—SLIP! The goat flipped and bonked his head. "Game over?" Gabby gasped, worried.
During an evening glow inside the cafeteria, a tuxedo-wearing goat springs high from a trampoline-like floor, sparkles trailing above scattered pizza boxes. Gabby smiles below while mid-air Principal Thunderpants bounces beside him as students cheer around.
Kids shared the video; everyone cheered for the goat. After a week, he returned—sparkly and stronger. Gabby smiled, "Ready for fame?" The goat bounced so hard, the floor became a trampoline. Even Thunderpants bounced and grinned. Everyone danced, ending with pizza and goat magic!
