Charlie Brown [voice over]: A couple of days had passed since the Queen's first attempt on Snow White's life. The routine is still the same: The gang leave for the mine in the mountains and warn Snow White to be on guard against strangers which the latter promise she will and the princess do her housework and have dinner ready for her friends when they return. Despite her near death experience a couple of days ago Snow White managed to get her priorities together.

Cut to another day at the mine, we find the peanuts hard at work until they have a conversation about Snow White.

Rerun: Charlie Brown, do you think Snow White is happy here with us?

Charlie Brown: She seems happy, why you asked?

Rerun: I don't wanna bring this up but last night I saw her crying and asked what wrong. And she told me that she's happy here but she sometimes misses her home. But unfortunately she can't go back because the evil queen want to... you know.

Charlie Brown: That's understandable. Until her father returns, our home is her home.

Linus: True but I also think someone else is looking for her as well.

Shermy: Like who?

Linus: Maybe a wealthy prince who love her more than we do.

Schroeder: Possibly. If a prince does come what give us the right to block love.

Franklin: We love her and I dare anyone tries to take her from us.

Schroeder: Our type of love is different. But true love is a whole different thing. She here for now but for how long?

Franklin: And lately she been a little depressed. Forced to hide from a evil stepmother until either her father or her true love come get her can be a little stressful.

Rerun: What can we do to cheer her up?

Suddenly Charlie Brown and Snoopy had a brilliant idea. The latter put on a party hat and played a noise maker indicating what the beagle had in mind.

Charlie Brown: That's it.

Shermy: What it?

Charlie Brown: A party. We'll throw her a party so great that she'll never be depressed ever again and if she does leave us we can still be friends.

Shermy: For once your right, blockhead. [to the others] All in favor of throwing Snow White a party?

All: AYE!

Shermy: All against?

All: NAY!

Shermy: Let's go then.

The gang put their tools away and leave for home early to surprise Snow White with a party. Cut to the cottage the gang noticed Snow White isn't home and went straight to work on getting the party ready. Once everything is ready the gang got their musical instruments (Snoopy on guitar, Schroeder on piano, Rerun on drum, Linus on concertina, Franklin on tambourine, Shermy on rattle shaker, Charlie Brown on bongo drums and Pig-Pen on double bass violin) and have a jazz session.

Snow White returning to the cottage with a basket of apples, nuts, and berries when she heard music from a short distance.

Snow White: Huh?

She went to investigate and to her surprise, Snow White saw her friends having a party with food set out on a table.

Snow White: Hey, what's going on here?

Charlie Brown: We noticed you was feeling down so...

Rerun: We all decided to throw you a party to cheer you up.

Snow White: Really?

Snoopy nodded.

Linus: We even wrote a song about you, Snow White.

Snow White: You did? I want to hear it.

The gang comply and prepare to sing a rendition of Owe Thörnqvist's Wilma.

Charlie Brown (Spoken): Okay gang, let's hit it!

All:
How-Do-Do-You-Doo!

[The gang play their musical instruments in the tune of "Owe Thornqvist's Wilma". Snoopy plays the guitar riff as Charlie Brown starts singing.]

Charlie Brown (Singing):
We had a house in the forest, we had peace at our soul.
We had bread with juice and a mine filled with gold.

[Franklin comically bang his tambourine on Shermy head most to the latter's annoyance; Cut to Rerun and Snoopy jamming on their respective instruments.]

Then we got class, then it became a different style too.
Now our existence is filled with a jubilant...

[Rerun bang on the drum scaring Snoopy]

Charlie Brown:
How-Do-You-Doo!

All:
Ay-ay-ay Snowy, here comes Snowy.

Charlie Brown:
Howdy-Doo she has changed our perspective and the meaning of life itself.

All:
In Snowy, here comes Snowy.

Charlie Brown:
Howdy-Doo, grab your partner and perform a fairy tale waltz.

[Snoopy performs a guitar riff]

Charlie Brown:
She got skin fair as snow, hair black as night.
she is a girl tough as a blizzard and her name is Snow White.

Now we're aristocrats...

All:
Hurray!

Charlie Brown:
So let's all follow suit, take your sweetheart to the ballroom
And dance the night away...

[Rerun bang his drum]

Charlie Brown:
How-Do-You-Doo!

All:
Ay-ay-ay, Snowy, here comes Snowy.

Charlie Brown:
Howdy-Doo she's the icing on the cake
And you're Snow White and I'm her Prince.

All:
In Snowy, here comes Snowy...

Charlie Brown:
Howdy-Doo, grab your partner and do a fairy tale waltz.

[Snoopy performed a guitar riff as Snow White cheerfully clapping in enjoyment]

Charlie Brown:
My princess has cut in ice and she can't get there
Now I get oatmeal and pecan pie and buttered raisin bread
She offered lunch the other day. It was dry cereals
And old chicken and soup that tasted like....

[Rerun bang his drum]

Charlie Brown:
How-Do-You-Doo.

All:
Ay-ay-ay Snowy, I love my Snowy.

Charlie Brown:
Howdy-Doo, we have become so classy
So it is almost impossible to describe.

All:
In Snowy, I love my Snowy.

Charlie Brown:
Howdy-Doo, grab your partner and do a fairy tale waltz.

[Snow White and Snoopy perform the guitar riff]

All:
How-Do-Do-You-Doo!

Snow White applauded.

Snow White: Bravo. Bravo. Encore. Encore. That was a great song and thank you for cheering me up.

Shermy: No problem, it's all Charlie Brown and Snoopy's idea. We just follow along.

Snow White notice Shermy look sad.

Snow White: What's wrong, Shermy?

Shemy: Well, I must confess. At first I didn't want you in our life but after starting to get to know you. I was wrong, not all females are poison and full of wicked wiles. It just that we're afraid we'll lose you when your father returns and our life will have no meaning anymore.

Snow White (reassuredly): Shermy, you don't have to worry about that. If my father does return home, we're always be friends and you're welcome to visit anytime. My home is your home.

Shermy: No kidding?

Snow White: Yes.

The gang hug Snow White as they continue to enjoy the party.
