(Firstly, the short opens with the PBS Kids (Re-Doink Era) - Dash System Cue bumper with the Old Logo & New Logo mixed up together)
(We fade in showing WVLT Building in sunset)
(We see a group of live-action employees exiting the building.)
Person #1: It's so incredible to think that PBS Kids started 30 years ago today. Imagine how many actors, people, artists and especially characters for young and old have participated in this very long legacy.
Person #2: *Sighs* Yeah.
(The two stop and look at the studio, dreamily)
Person #2: If only these walls could talk.
(They leave the headquarters empty. As the camera turns towards the inside, the title of the short, "Once Upon a Station" appears on the screen, and it disappears as the camera focuses on a portrait depicting Dash and Dot)
(Just then... they suddenly start moving.)
Dash: Psst! P-Pals! Hey, P-Pals! Are you there?
(The P-Pals show up from an air vent.)
Dash: Is that it? Are they all gone?
The P-Pals: Yep. Everyone's not here.
Dash: Oh boy! *Leaps out of the picture* Time to Dash!
Dot: *Jumps out of the picture beside him* Let's call everyone to the lobby!
Dash: Right! *Whistles*
(In another room, Dot (2013) hears him from her picture)
