SCENE 1 | Nina and Star welcome the Sproutlet viewers and ask them if they're ready for another goodnight, followed by a version of the Welcome Song. The duo then reveals that today, they went skiing with penguins and served as doctors to patients like Teddy, whom Star claims was so patient - it turns out they were using their imaginations, which Nina proceeds to tell the Sproutlets about. Star suggests they keep using their imaginations and Nina agrees, inviting the Sproutlets to go on an Imagination adventure with them. She explains that the Spanish word for "imagination" is imaginacion, which she invites Star and the Sproutlets to say with her. Nina suggests they use their imaginations right now - they're in the circus, but the trapeze is so high, so they use a ladder Star borrowed from the lions to climb up to it. Once they're swinging on the trapeze, they see the lions, the elephants, and some cotton candy. Star admits he imagines this night is going to be very fun. |

SCENE 2 | Nina and Star welcome back the Sproutlets and announce that tonight, they're having an Imagination, or Imaginacion, adventure. Star suggests they imagine themselves as astronauts flying in a rocket to outer space. While there, they note that there are stars everywhere, and Nina suggests they use the Sprout-o-scope to take a closer look. After "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star," tonight's constellations are a pair of wings, which Star points out resemble those a fairy or a butterfly have, and a dragon. |

SCENE 3 | Nina welcomes back the Sproutlets and tells them a little about tonight, including the word for "imagination" in Spanish being imaginacion. She breaks it to them that one uses their imagination when thinking about something, and then explains that one day, when she couldn't visit the zoo, she and her Abuelita used their imaginations to pretend to be different animals there, including lions, elephants, and giraffes, and even eat banana cream pie with a monkey family. Suddenly, more Sproutlets call her, asking her to come outside for a Sprout stretch, which she goes down to the Goodnight Garden to do.
Nina teaches her Sproutlet friends a monkey stretch, in which they bend forward, let their arms dangle and sway, and imitate monkeys. |

SCENE 4 | Nina and Star welcome back the Sproutlets and tell them that they're on an Imagination adventure, and that in Spanish, the word for it is imaginacion. The former then recalls pretending to be aliens from the planet Marshmallow, where everything is sticky, with Chelsea B. Additionally, Star pretends to be an alien himself, but this time from the planet Spaghetti, where cars are made out of meatballs. The duo sees another alien (the Sproutlets) and ask what planet they're from. Star comments on their antennae, saying he likes them. He then tells Nina he loves using his imagination, and Nina suggests they use their imagination right now, for it's time for a Best Day Ever Book story, in which Nina, Star, and the Sproutlets help Mami and Papi bake a space-themed birthday cake for Chelsea matching the one seen in a picture. They select blue frosting, decorations of planets, the moon, and stars, and a rocketship candle to top it all off. |

SCENE 5 | Nina and Star welcome back the Sproutlets, explaining that tonight's adventure is about imagination, or in Spanish, imaginacion, which they encourage them to say. Star asks Nina what they need to use their imaginations, and she explains that they just need their ideas, which is why it's so much fun. For example, she pulls out two ordinary empty boxes, which the duo uses to play a game, in which they imagine the boxes to be a volcano, a school bus, and a castle, and Star encourages the Sproutlets to guess what Nina's making. Afterwards, Nina presents the sign for "imagination," taking both her pinkies, holding them to her forehead and circling them out, and encourages the Sproutlets to do the same. |
  |
SCENE 6 | Nina welcomes back the Sproutlets and tells them that Star is out in the Goodnight Garden chatting with real Sproutlets, leading to a Star Talks segment. Star and his Sproutlet friends (including Anais and Mirabelle Lee) discuss imagination and what they use it for. |
  |
SCENE 7 | Nina and Star welcome back the Sproutlets and explain that they're having so much fun on their imagination, or imaginacion, adventure. Star wonders when they use their imagination, and Nina tells him that they can do so anytime they want, and that some people have jobs where they use their imaginations, like artists making pictures or writers making stories. Speaking of stories, it's time for a sandy story. Tonight's tale is about a cat named Harper, who uses her imagination and pretends to be a queen, with a golden crown with her favorite chair as a throne and her surroundings as a castle and even a pet dragon named Doug, during a thunderstorm outside. |
    |
SCENE 8 | After telling the Sproutlets about the night's adventure, Nina notes that they have something important to do now - feed Hush, with Star offering her the fish food. Since it's getting close to bedtime, Nina and Star have another important thing to do - not tell another sandy story, but clean up the You and Me Tree, which they do through song.
Afterwards, Nina tells Star that it's time for him to do something else that's very important - not organize his stamp collection, as his Aunt Luna sent him a new stamp in the mail recently, but brush his teeth and wash his face, leading to "Ready for Bed." After that, Star is all set for bed, but confirms with Nina that he doesn't want to stop imagining. She tells him that he can keep doing so in his dreams, and he explains that there's one more thing he never has to imagine - that she's his best friend. Afterwards, he falls fast asleep. |

SCENE 10 | Nina sings the Goodnight Song as Lucy closes out the episode. |
