The Wiggles took the children to Dankworth's office.

"What is this place?" said Violet.

"This is where our adventure begins" said Anthony.

They went inside the office.

"Welcome back, Wiggles. And welcome to you children" said Dankworth.

"They've never done this before, sir" said Jeff.

"I know. But they will manage to adjust" said Dankworth.

"Um... who are you?" said Veruca.

"I am Liam Dankworth. And you have joined the Wiggles on their adventure. Now would you please tell me your names?" said Dankworth.

"I'm Veruca Salt" said Veruca.

"Augustus Gloop" said Augustus.

"Violet Beauregarde" said Violet.

"And I'm Mike Teavee" said Mike.

"Very good. Now, as I have with the Wiggles, I shall bestow gifts on the four of you" said Dankworth.

He made different colored lights flash through the children's bodies.

"What was that?" said Mike.

"Your gifts. They take a while to work so I shall have all of you sleep here tonight" said Dankworth.

"Sleep? Here?" said Veruca.

"It's actually pretty comfy" said Jeff.

The Wiggles and the children spent the night in the office.

The next morning...

"Hey. Why do my arms hurt?" said Veruca.

"Oh... goodness. My eyes vill not open. Zey hurt" said Augustus.

"My ears are ringing" said Mike.

"And my throat is so sore, I can barely talk" said Violet.

"That's a sign that your bodies are adjusting to your new gifts" said Murray.

"But vhat are zey supposed to be?" said Augustus.

"You're never told. You have to find out for yourselves" said Jeff.

"But the pain is only temporary" said Anthony.

"That's right. Now. I have restored the Wiggles' biplane so you can embark on your adventure" said Dankworth.

"What are we doing today?" said Jeff. 

"The children probably know that the factory's Oompa Loompas have gone missing" said Dankworth.

"Oh, yeah. They have" said Mike.

"So your mission is to bring them back" said Dankworth.

"Wonderful! Mr Wonka will be so pleased" said Veruca.

"Yes yes yes. Now off you go" said Dankworth. 

"But, Mr Dankworth, the children won't be able to hear your voice when we're out there?" said Greg.

"What do you mean hear his voice?" said Violet.

"All shall be revealed, dear Violet. And I have made the adjustment. Now go" said Dankworth.

The Wiggles started the biplane and off they went.
