[ Ringing ]

Hear that ?
Bubbles is here.

Let's go play
with him.
Wow !

[ All Giggling ]
[ Both ]
What ?

Hey, slow down there,
kids.

- Where are you off to
in such a hurry ?
- [ All ] Bubbles !

Those kids sure do love
that pet bass of theirs.

Hi, Bubbles !
Long time no see !
Nice to see you. How are you ?

Hey, you want
to do something ?
How're you doin' ?

Oh, come on !
We can make up
a really fun game.

Hey, that's
a great idea.

Bubbles !

Hmm.
[ Whimpering ]

[ Peanut ]
Hey, let's
play dodgeball.

Hmm.
[ Kisses ]

Hmm.

Wanna play fetch ?

Fetch, Bubbles !
Here you go !

- [ Moans ]
- What's the matter
with Bubbles ?

Yeah. Why doesn't he
want to play ?
[ Moans ]

- Maybe he's got a tummy ache.
- Maybe he's got a fever.

Hmm.

Well, his nose is wet,
but he feels kinda cold.

Maybe he's too cold.
Maybe he needs
to get warm.

Yeah !

How's that ?

Maybe his bowl's too little.
A fish needs to stretch
his fins, you know.

Hmm. What could we
put him in ?

How 'bout that
cardboard box ?

Well, it's big enough,
but cardboard
won't hold water.

Oh, yeah.
I forgot.

I know a perfect place
to put him.
Where ?

Trust me.

♪ [ Humming ]

Ahhhh !

[ Bubbling ]
Huh ?

Oh !
[ Sputtering ]

PBJ !

[ Peanut, Jelly ]
Huh ?

You kids have
some explaining to do.

You're absolutely
righty, right, right.

Uh, Jelly, tell him.

Bubbles was
acting weird.

[ Sad Moaning ]

See, Daddy ?
Bubbles isn't acting
like himself at all.

Well, I guess
you kids are right.

- Bubbles is usually
so... frisky.
- Hmm.

So can we keep him
in the bathtub until
he feels better ?

Can we, Dad ?
Can we ?

Well, okay, Peanut,
but just for today.

- [ Sighs ]
- Maybe he's hungry.

[ Peanut ]
Yeah.

Huh ? My, my,
those kids can eat !

Come on, Bubbles.
Try the pie.
It's really good.

[ Sighs ]

Then how about
this peanut butter
and jelly sandwich ?

[ Sighs ]

Maybe he'd like
Mom's 23-bean salad.

Everybody
likes that.
Yeah !

But just because we like it
doesn't mean Bubbles will.
It's worth a try.

Waah !

I guess that's
not the right way
to feed a fish.

I guess you're right,
Jelly.

All we've done is make
a big mess in here, and Bubbles
still isn't any better.

It's terrible seeing
Bubbles so sick...

and not being able to do
anything to help him.

But, Jelly, we've
tried everything.
No, not everything.

We haven't tried
the Noodle Dance.
Noodle !

That's what we should have done
in the first place.

We should have used our noodles
before we made a mess.

- It only made Bubbles
feel worse.
- It's too late now.

No, Peanut,
it's never too late
to use your noodle.

But what are we
noodle dancing about ?
Hmm.

We've already tried everything
we could think of.

We tried to solve
the problem before we knew
what it really was.

[ Water Splashing ]
Hmm.

You mean, maybe Bubbles
isn't really sick ?
Right ! Come on.

Let's noodle dance
and figure out what's really
wrong with Bubbles.

Well, I'll use my noodle,
but I'm definitely not dancing.

You keep saying that.
Come on, Butter.
Let's noodle !

Jelly !
What ? What happened ?
What ?

Did you think
of something ?
Yeah. Come on.

We never tried to ask
Bubbles what was wrong.

Yeah.
Good thinkin', Peanut.

But how
can we ask him ?

Maybe we could learn
how to speak fish ?

Now, class,
repeat after me.

Glub, glub, glub, glub,

Hmm.
Hmm.

- Hmm.
- Hmm.

I guess it's not so easy
to speak fish ?

- [ Peanut ]
What else could we try ?
- I know !

We plug Bubbles into a giant,
atomic fish translator-tron
that reads his mind.

- Then we'll find out
what he's thinking.
- That might work.

Do you have an atomic
fish translator-tron
that can read a fish's mind ?

[ Gasps ]
Uh... no.

Uh, not exactly.

- [ Whimpering ]
- What is it, boy ? What
are you trying to tell us ?

Do you want to get out
of the bathtub ?

[ Groans ]

Oh, Peanut, we'll
never understand him.

Wait !
I have an idea.

Bubbles, splash once for yes
and twice for no. Ready ?

It worked !
He splashed once.
That means yes.

Glub, glub.

Are you sick ?

That means no !
It's working, Jelly.

Do you want to get out
of the bathtub ?

Once for yes !

He probably
wants to go back
to his fishbowl.

Do you want to go back
to your bowl ?

No ?

Do you want to
look out the window ?

Yes ? Quick, Jell,
hand me that bucket.

[ Both Groaning ]
Careful !

- [ Whining ]
- Jelly, look at that fish
over there.

She's acting like Bubbles.
Are you thinkin'
what I'm thinkin' ?

- The fish sickness
is spreading ?
- No !

Bubbles isn't sick.
He misses his friend.

Glub, glub.
Glub, glub.

Is that it, Bubbles ?
Do you miss your friend ?

[ Peanut, Butter
Gasping ]

Ew ! [ Spits ]
I'll take that as a yes.

[ Peanut, Butter ]
Whoa !

What is it this time,

Look, Connie, PBJ
are teaching their pet fish
how to fly !

That's nice, dear.
Wake me when they
grow feathers.

Ohh !
[ Purring ]
[ Panting ]

Well, kids, I guess you learned
an important lesson today.

Yes, Mama.
We learned that when you
want to help someone,

you really have to listen
to them to find out
what they need.

I'm glad you kids
were able to help
your pet fish,

and your daddy's glad, too,
because now he can finally
take his bath.

Uh-oh.

Don't laugh.

We have another toy

Looks like that last upgrade
blew a fuse.

But I've already asked
Mr. Otter to come over
and fix it.

- How long will that take ?
- He said he would get here
just as soon as he can.

Well, now what do we do ?
We can't just sit here

Ohh. I wanted to
play that game so much.
