* The order of events has been slightly changed. For example, the scene in the office with [[A. Rokodil]] and [[O. Nijlpaard]] discussing over a model version of the amusement park is moved to earlier on in the story. The hatching of [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak|Alfred]]'s egg also happens earlier, as the egg is seen waggling by [[Johan Kwak|Johan]], [[Anna van de Polder|Anna]] and [[Rap de Kiekedief|Rap]] in the script, but only hatches after Johan has saved Alfred from Rap and [[Snel de Snoek|Snel]] in the episode. | * The order of events has been slightly changed.

Finally, Henk offering the idea to emigrate is before Alfred goes to the attractionpark in the episode, but after in the script. This was likely reworked to make Alfred returning to the nest after being scared in the park (plus the lingering question of emigration) the ending to the episode. | ||
* The passage of time is also different between each versions. It seems like a few days pass after Alfred and [[Alfred's brothers and sisters|his brothers and sisters]] hatch in the episode before they are interrupted by construction work, but in the script it's almost simultaneous. Conversely, in the script several weeks go by before Johan, Anna and Henk decide to emigrate, but in the episode they only sleep on that decision for one night. However [[Episode 2]] keeps it ambiguous how much time transpired between episodes. | * The passage of time is also different between each versions.
