02x06 - Pink Elephant/Snuggle Bunny

[bunniefuu]

Great gorilla! Look at all of these fantastic animals

for our animal parade!

A magnificent monkey,

a wonderful walrus...

And let me guess -

This is the fancy fin of a fish!

No, it's cheese.

The mouse is hiding behind it.

Oh!

Cheery cheese for a marvellous mouse!

ETHANNo, Zahara!

That's not what elephants look like.

Hey, what's up, Ethan?

Elephants don't have polka-dots.

But mine does. I think she looks nice.

Well, she looks positively polka dotty pink and perfect!

Your elephant should be grey.

But I like it this way better.

MR. ANTHONYUh... Ahem.

Ugh, she just won't listen!

And my face feels all scrunchy,

like it's on too tight.

Well, Ethan, it sounds to me like

you're feeling exasperated.

Exasperated?

Yeah, exasperated is what you feel

when you want someone to do something,

but they just won't do it the way you want them to.

Then yup, I'm exasperated, alright.

I know a trick

to make that too-tight scrunchy face looser.

It's called the Crocodile Smile.

Check it out.

When you're really exasperated,

and feeling "urgh," and your face is scrunched up,

you do the Crocodile Smile...

That's funny.

(Chuckle) It works! You try it.

Scrunch up your face and then... smile!

Very good!

Does your face feel better now, Ethan?

Better...

but Zahara's painting is still wrong.

You know, this reminds me of the time

Napkin Man helped a little boy named Mani

and his sister Bela who had a pet elephant.

Wanna hear about it? Yeah!

Alright.

You are gonna love this one.

visiting my good friends Mani, Bela, and -

(Elephant trumpet)

Priya the Elephant!

(Trumpet)

Napkin Man!

Hey, Mani! Hi, Bela!

We're so happy you're here

for the painted elephant parade.

We're about to give Priya a bath.

Would you like to help?

Well, I've washed a car before,

and I've washed my hair,

but I've never washed an elephant...

So yes!

♪

(Giggle) (Trumpet)

(Chuckle)

Priya loves bath-time!

It's her favourite thing to do...

next to rolling in the mud.

(Trumpet)


Okay Priya, time to rinse!

(Slurp)

Um, Napkin Man?

You might want to step back.

Huh? Why?

Whaa!

Oh, that's why.

(Chuckle)

(Giggle)

Now Priya is sparkling clean.

Heh. And so are you, Napkin Man.

Yup, squeaky clean!

Let's get started.

We're entering the contest

for the best- decorated elephant.

Yeah, and we really want to win,

so...

I drew this picture to show

exactly how Priya should look.

Wow, I've never seen a more colourful elephant!

Napkin Man, you can make the wildflower wreath

to go around Priya's neck.

Huh? For ME?

Shucks, Bela, you shouldn't have!

Bela, you can start painting that side...

And I'll paint this side.

Okay! (Chuckle)

MANIWhat do you think, Napkin Man?

How's she looking?

Amazing...

just like your painting!

(Trumpet)

(Laugh)

Thanks, Napkin Man!

How's your side coming along, Bela?

See for yourself!

Priya, you look super-starry!

What? Bela, no.

You were supposed to do it like the picture!

I know, but pink and purple are my favourite colors.

Yes, but it's all wrong!

But she looks super-starry.

(Sigh)

Bela doesn't listen! Ugh!

My face feels all tight and scrunchy.

It sounds like you're feeling exasperated.

It may be a good time to do

the Crocodile Smile...

(Both laugh)

That does help, Napkin Man,

but we still have the problem -

Bela painted Priya all wrong.

BELAUh, Napkin Man?

Remember when we told you

Priya's favourite thing is rolling in the mud?

Uh-huh. (Gasp)

Priya, please get out of that mud!

Yuck!

(Trumpet) Come on, Priya.

Let's clean you up so we can start again.

(Slurp)

Here comes the water! Let's get out of the way!

(Giggle)

This time, Bela,

please paint Priya

the right way.

But Mani, for me,

purple stars ARE the right way.

Hm.

Maybe we should ask Ethan what he thinks.

Well...

I like Mani's side, because it's so bright and colourful...

I agree. But...

Bela's stars look really great, too.

So how do we figure out which is the right way?

Maybe BOTH ways are right.

What do you think, Napkin Man?

Hm. I think...

Did you hear that? The parade is starting.

Hurry!

Come on, Priya, let's go!

(Crowd cheering)

MANIWe made it just in time!

Do you hear that? Priya is a hit!

They love our designs!

Look! There's the judge!

Yes, yes... Hmm...

Very nice!

What's this?

One side so bright and colourful,

and the other side so starry?

Why, you've doubled the fun,

so I'm giving you double the points!

You win the grand prize!

Did you hear that, Mani?

We won!

And I couldn't have done it without you.

I'm glad you did it your way.

And I'm glad you did it your way, too.

Way to go Mani - AND Bela!

So, Priya,

how do you want to celebrate your victory?

(Whisper) Great idea!

Cannonball!

Woohoo! (Both giggle)

MR. ANTHONYAnd that's the story of how Napkin Man

helped Mani and Bela

paint Priya the Elephant each in their own special way.

Great story, Mr. Anthony.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it.

Come on.

So what do you think of Zahara's painting now?

It kind of looks like Priya!

I guess it is a lot more fun

than just plain grey.

Thanks, Ethan.

Mr. Anthony, can you pass me the purple paint, please?

You got it!

Oh no...

(Kids laughing)

You win the grand prize for best decorated teacher!

(Kids cheer)

And now...

Everyone ready to say the magic word?

KIDSAbraca-zooey!

TA-DAH!

(Applause) Wow, a bunny!

And now for our next trick,

Magician Amelia will transform

this stuffed bunny rabbit

into something truly incredible!

Everyone, we need the magic word!

KIDSAbraca-zooey!

Ta-da!

KIDSLook, a bunny! What's his name? Neat!

(Cheering) He's cute!

Mr. Anthony,

can I show the class how Buddy cuddles with me?

Well, sure you can, Amelia.

KIDSIs he ever cool! I love his nose!

MR. ANTHONYLet's have a look at the bunny, guys.

Come on. KIDSWow! Aww!

He's so cute!

MR. ANTHONYLook at that bunny.

KIDSWow! Those ears!

He's so cute!

AMELIAOh no, come back here!

Amelia, why don't you put Buddy back in his cage

so he doesn't run away, alright?

AMELIABuddy, come back!

MR. ANTHONYHey, guys -

Let's take a break for a minute.

Awww! Yes, I know, I know...

AMELIAYou're not being nice, Buddy!

MR. ANTHONYWhy don't we draw some pictures of Buddy,

and then maybe we can see him later.

(Kids chattering about Buddy)

(Kids chattering about Buddy)

MR. ANTHONYHey, Amelia,

aren't you going to draw Buddy like the other kids?

Nope.


I'm feeling too "grr" and grumbly to do anything.

Sounds to me like you're feeling annoyed.

I AM feeling annoyed

because Buddy won't snuggle with me.

Well, I know a way to get rid of those

"grrr grrr" grumbles.

How?

By doing the Happy Hop like a bunny!

The Happy Hop? Mm-hm. Check it out.

First you have to be a bunny.

Then you have to be happy, happy, happy...

Then hop, hop, hop! Hop! Hop! Hop!

We're funny bunnies.

Yes, we are.

Very good. (Sigh) Do you feel better?

A little, but I still don't know why Buddy won't snuggle.

I think I have a Napkin Man story about this

that just might help.

Wanna hear it? Sure!

Hey, Josephine!

How are things in Australia?

Fine, Napkin Man.

Welcome to the Outback Nature Park!

I was just about to check on the animals.

Wanna come? You bet!

First, we'll go to the Billabong.

Billabong?

It's a pond, see?

My friend Lucille lives here.

Gah! A crocodile!

It's okay, Napkin Man.

Lucille is a friendly crocodile.

(Sniff)

(Stomach rumbles)

Uh, did Lucille just growl?

Let me check it out.

(Rumble)

No, she's not growling -

but her tummy is rumbling.

That must mean that she's hungry.

She likes to eat crocodile treats.

Here, you can feed her.

Lucille is very gentle.

She doesn't bite.

NAPKIN MAN(Shivering) If you say so...

Phew! They're all still there.

Let's go, Napkin Man.

More animals need our help.

Hey, there's Oscar, the Emu!

That's odd - Oscar's standing on one foot.

(Groan)

(Gasp) Did you hear that groan?

He might be hurt. I'd better take a closer look.

Uh-oh.

It looks like Oscar has a stone

stuck between his toes.

That must be it!

You figured it out by looking really closely!

Can you get the stone out?

I think so, but he's too jumpy.

Could you give him a hug and hold him steady?

It will help relax him while I get the stone out.

Well, I just fed a crocodile today.

I might as well hug an emu, too.


Whoa! Whoa!

(Oscar screeching) Got it!

(Napkin Man shouting)

Napkin Man? NAPKIN MANWhoa!

(Coughing)

I'm okay! I'm okay.

And it looks like Oscar is okay, too.

Excuse me. Excuse me, please.

Pardon me. He, watch the cape!

Nice going, Josephine.

You figured out what was bothering Oscar

and you made him happy again.

(Squawk)

Thanks, Napkin Man!

Come on, I want to introduce you to someone special.

Whoa!

I just saw the world's biggest bunny!

That was no bunny, Napkin Man.

It's Poppy, the kangaroo...

And Poppy loves to play.

In fact, Poppy and I usually play all day!

(Giggle) Yee haw!

Ride 'em, Josephine!

Huh?

What's wrong, Poppy?

You always love to play with me.

Hey, Poppy! Come back!

Why won't you play with me?

That's not nice! Grr!

Uh oh.

I didn't mean to stomp so loud.

Ugh, I'm just feeling annoyed!

Well, then,

it's time to hop those annoyed "grrs" away

by doing the Happy Hop!

Just follow me.

Hip, hop! Hop! Hop!

Hop!

Hip! Hop! Hip, hip, hop!

(Giggle) We're "hoppy" like Poppy!

There. Feel better?

A little.

But I still don't know why Poppy won't play with me.

Maybe she doesn't like me anymore.

Oh, that can't be the reason.

Animals love you, Josephine!

You're so good at knowing what they want

and how they're feeling.

Well, I don't know what Poppy is feeling.

All I know is that she won't play with me.

What should I do?

I have a song that just might help you figure that out...

Great song, Napkin Man,

and look - Poppy's back!

Let's look and listen

and see if we can figure out what she needs.

Hm...

(Yawn)

Did you see that?

Poppy yawned and rubbed her eyes.

Yes, but what does it mean?

Mr. Anthony,

sometimes I yawn and rub my eyes

when I'm tired.

Maybe you should tell Napkin Man and Josephine that.

Napkin Man, Josephine!

I think Poppy is tired and sleepy.

Yes, that's it! Of course!

Thanks, Amelia.

You must love animals, just like me.

I do.

Poppy, if you're feeling sleepy,


we should leave so you can sleep.

Yeah, we can play some other time.

Shhh!

And that's the story of how Napkin Man

helped Josephine to look and listen

to see what her animal friends needed.

Great story, Mr. Anthony.

But I still don't know why Buddy won't snuggle.

Maybe I can figure it out if I watch him closely,

just like Josephine.

Great idea.

AMELIAHe seems a lot less wiggly now.

KIDSCan I see him? Wow!

It's Buddy! I've missed you, Buddy!

AMELIAMr. Anthony,

Buddy got scared when everyone was loud.

I think he likes it when it's quiet.

Hm, I think you're right.

Okay, everybody, let's take three giant steps back.

We're going to practice the Quiet Game.

Aww... What a cozy cuddler.
