Oops! Goodness gracious, Jimmy.
I almost stepped on you.
Jimmy, come on, get up.
This is no time
to sleep. Come on.
- Oh, my head.
- Jimmy, what's the matter?
Are you all right?
- Hi, who are you?
- Huh? I'm your friend, Horace.
Don't you remember me, Jimmy?
- No. Who's Jimmy?
- You are Jimmy.
[audience laughs]
- Is that my name?
- Oh, gosh. You don't
remember your own name.
And you don't remember me?
Oh, boy. Something's wrong.
Help! Help!
Someone help!
- What's the matter?
What's wrong?
- Help, Mayor Pufnstuf.
Am I glad to see you.
Jimmy can't remember anything.
- Easy, Horace. Take it easy.
Hi, Jimmy. We were
looking for you.
- Who are you?
- See, I told ya. I told ya.
- You know who I am, Jimmy.
I'm your friend, Pufnstuf.
- Who?
- Pufnstuf. And this
here is your pal, Freddy.
- Who's Freddy?
- Jimmy, stop playing games.
I'm Freddy.
- Surly you remember
Cling and Clang.
- Who?
- That does it.
[audience laughs]
Jimmy, we're taking
you to see Dr. Blinky.
- Who?
- Who? I'm the owl.
I'm supposed to
say who, not you.
Oh, my gracious.
[audience laughs]
Here it is. A lumpity bump.
And what a lumpity bump.
Look, Pufnstuf, see? Right here.
- Ow! That hurts!
- Please don't hurt
him, Dr. Blinky.
- Excuse me a minute, Jimmy.
Uh, uh, Pufnstuf, I'm afraid
it's not very good news.
He's got amnesia.
Or as we doctors
call it, forgetitis.
- [Pufnstuf]
Forgetitis? What's that?
- Well, you see,
um. Oh my, I forgot.
Oh, no, no. I remember.
Forgetitis is when a person
gets a bomp on the bean.
But don't worry, I've
got just the thing.
A new invention I've
been working on.
A magic spray that
restores the memory.
- Say, what's going on anyway?
- Jimmy, please, Dr. Blinky's
gonna try and help you.
- That's right.
- What are you
gonna do with that?
- I'm just going to
give you a little whiff
of this magic spray.
It'll make you forget all
about your forgetitis.
And when you forget all
about what you forgot
that will make you remember.
[audience laughs]
- What did you say?
- That's doctor stuff.
Now, Pufnstuf, try
and remind Jimmy
of some very special event.
If he remembers,
we've got it made.
- Right. Let's see.
Oo, I know! His birthday party.
Everyone remembers
their birthday parties.
Jimmy, remember
your birthday party?
All the fun we had?
Think, Jimmy. Think.
- Oh, please, Jimmy, think.
- Think birthday party, Jimmy.
Close your eyes. Take a
deep breath and think.

to us, say something.
- Who are all of you?
[audience laughs]
- Oh!
- What are you doing to me?
Why do you keep
calling me Jimmy?
- Jumping butter beans,
Dr. Blinky. It didn't work.
He still doesn't remember.
- I'm getting out of here.
- Oh, no, no. Wait a
minute, Jimmy, please.
I just have to give
you a stronger dose.
- Jimmy, please. Dr. Blinky
is trying to help you.
- Pufnstuf, tell him to think
about something special.
If we can get him to
remember just one thing,
he'll be cured.
- Jimmy, remember the time
you disguised yourself
as a beggar to sneak the
candle into the witch's castle?
Do you remember? Huh?
- Close your eyes
and think beggar.
- [Both] Think, Jimmy, think.
- You're a beggar. A beggar.
[gentle music]
- Alms for the poor beggar.
Alms! Alms for the
poor and retched.
- Say there, you beggar.
What are you doing around here?
- Please, sir. Charity
for starving a man.
- We don't give
charity around here.
Scrap. Get lost.
- Go!
- Wait, kind-feathered sir.
How would you like to buy my
candle, my only possession,
for a few buttons
or crust of bread?
- I'm going to get that candle
as a present for the witch.
Maybe that'll get
her off our backs.
[audience laughs]
- But we don't have any buttons.
- We don't need any, dummy.

Come on, Cling and Clang.

Help! Pufnstuf, Dr. Blinky,
Jimmy just walked out.
- Walked out?
Where did he go?
- He didn't say. It
was all very spooky.
[audience laughs]
- Oh, my goodness.
He shouldn't be wandering
around in the forest
without a memory.
The witch will get him for sure.
- Welleckers! You
stay here, Freddy.
Come on, Cling and Clang.
We've got to find Jimmy before
the witch does. Let's go!
[playful music]|
[Jimmy whistling]
- Look! Over there.
It's the boy. Jimmy.
- Let's grab him and
bring him to the witch.
- Right. Maybe she'll
give us a reward.
- Shh, quiet. Here he comes.
[ominous music]
- Got ya!
- Hey, what are you doing?
Cut that out!
- We've got you. And this
time you won't escape.
- Let me go! Who are you?
- Who are we? You
must be kidding.
- You're coming with us.
We're taking you
right to the witch.
- The witch? What's a witch?
- What's a witch? [laughs]
She's a lovely lady
who lives in a castle
with a lot of magic
tricks to show you.
- Yes, she's a barrel of laughs.
- I could use a few laughs.
[audience laughs]
- Well, wait till you meet her.
She'll have you in stitches.
- Yeah. You'll die laughing.
[trees laughing]
[audience laughs]
- Come on, sonny.
- Come on.
[tree chuckling]
- Jimmy! Jimmy,
where are you, Jimmy?
It's no use, boys.
We've looked everywhere.
The witch must have him.
Come on, let's go to
the castle. Hurry!

You're supposed to be

Now get back to work before
I turn you into toothpicks.
- But, Witchiepoo, wait!
We brought you a present. Look.

You sure are a fun person.

downstairs. It's enormous.
You might say it's
like a dungeon.
[audience laughs]
- Oh, Witchiepoo,
what wonderful, evil,
rotten, scary things
are we going to do to him?
- First order of
business is frisk him.
He always carries that
golden flute around with him.
Search him good.
- Cut that out! I
don't have any flute.
What are you talking about?
- He's clean.
- I suppose you're
going to tell me
you never carry
Freddy Flute with you.
- No, I don't.
I only just met him back in
some goofy doctor's place
with some green dragon
they call Muffin Stuffins.
[audience laughs]
I can't remember his name.
Can't remember my name.
I can't remember you.
I can't remember anything.
- Say, are you putting me on?
- Do you mind if I sit down?
- No.
- Everything's so hazy.
The doctor said I
have forgetitis.
- Forgetitis?
- I hope it ain't catching.
- Forgetitis, aye?
Well, we'll soon find out
if you are faking or not
with this!
Now you say you
don't remember me.
- That's right. I've
never met you before.
- And you don't remember
when I turned you
into a mechanical boy?
- A mechanical boy? What's that?
- I'll show you.
Evil spirits, mean
and tyrannical.
Make Jimmy remember
when he was mechanical.
