[bunniefuu]

[RATTLING]

Way up high in the Rolie Polie sky

Is a little round planet
Of a really nice guy

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

He's Rolie Polie Olie
He's small and smart and round

And in the land of curves and curls
He's the swellest kid around

-Howdy
-Howdy

-Hooray
-Hooray

And in the land of curves and curls
He's the swellest kid around

He's Rolie Polie Olie
He's small and smart and round

And in the land of curves and curls
He's the swellest kid around

-Howdy
-Howdy

-Hooray
-Hooray

And in the land of curves and curls
He's the swellest kid around

-And in the land of curves and curls
-He's the swellest kid

The swellest kid around.

[ALL CHEER]

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[PAPPY HUFFING]

Hooray, it's a sunshiny day.
I'll be out in a jiffy, Mr. Sunny.

-[DOOR OPENING]
-[GASPS]

-[LAUGHS]
-Pappy! What you doing?

Why it's Mr. Sunny's
total eclipse-o-rama day, Olie.

[LAUGHS] Oops! Hey, come back here.

-Total eclipse... What?
-[GRUNTS]

-[LAUGHS] Eclipse-o-rama day.
-What doing, Pappy?

[BOTH LAUGHS]

It's Mr. Sunny's
total eclipse-o-rama day, Zow.

Ooh. Total eclipse mama day.

We better get dressed.

Oh, oh, oh. Nokey-dokey.
Eclipse-o-rama day is an all-pajama day.

-Yay!
-Hooray! A pajama bonanza.

[BOTH LAUGH]

-Why is it an all-pajama day, Pappy?
-'Cause on eclipse-o-rama day

it's nighttime in the middle of the day.

-Nighttime?
-No, Mr. Sunny?

Nope, he's going to say "night-night"
for a while.

So, what exactly is Mr. Sunny's
total eclipse-o-rama day?

[LAUGHS] I'll show you.

[LAUGHS]

Now, let's pretend Olie is planet Polie
floating out in the middle of space.

-Hmm. Like this, Pappy?
-[ZOWIE CHUCKLES]

Exactly.

And flashy here is Mr. Sunny
grinning down on planet Olie,

-uh, I mean, planet Polie.
-What me, Pappy, what me?

[CHUCKLES] And you, sweet pea
are the very pretty Moony.

-Pretty Moony, pretty Moony.
-Now, on a total eclipse-o-rama day

Moony moves in to cut a rug
with Mr. Sunny.

She squeezes right between Mr. Sunny
and planet Polie.

-[CHUCKLES]
-Hey, it got dark.

[LAUGHS] Right in the middle of the day.

You see, eclipse-o-rama days
are extra special.

They only happen, uh,
every bazillion years or so.

Wow! So, what do we do now, Pappy?

Well, the same thing you do
any night before you go to bed.

Only we're going to stay up
all night long.

-BOTH: Hooray!
-[CHUCKLES]

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

-Okey-dokey. Teddy?
-Check.

Uh, I got the flashlights.
How's about the sleeping bags?

-Got 'em.
-Got 'em.

-Welding masks?
-What do we need welding masks for?

Oh, 'cause, even though Mr. Sunny's hiding
behind Moony,

he can still hurt your eyes if you look
right at him.

This will keep your eyes safe.

Well, looks like we're all set.
Let's blow up teddy.

-PERCY: Hey, guys, what you doing?
-We're camping out with Pappy

-for Mr. Sunny's total eclipse-o-rama day.
-Sounds celestial.

PAPPY: All righty, it's countdown time.

ALL: Ten. Nine. Eight.

Seven. Six. Five. Four.

-Three. Two. One.
-OLIE: Neato!

-[HOWLS]
-ZOWIE: Me scared.

It's okay, Zowie.
It's just the way the world's gears turn.

[YAWNS]

All right, let's hop to it.

We got to grab a whole night's worth
of stuff in just a little while.

-PERCY: See you in the morning.
-Night-night, Daddy.

-Me stay up all night.
-[CHUCKLES]

-Look, Housie's falling asleep.
-[HOUSIE SNORING]

Come on. Let's see what Chilly
and the other house buddies do at night.

[CLOCKY SNORING]

[GRUNTS]

[SNORES]

[CHUCKLING] I always wondered what
that noise was.

Gotcha now!

[LAUGHS]

[BELL DINGS]

[BOTH GIGGLE]

[SHUSHES]

Caught ya!

[GIGGLES] Go sleepy!

-[ALL CHUCKLE]
-[SNORES]

[SHUSHES]

Time for a little flashlight tag!

-[ZOWIE GIGGLES]
-Tag ya. You're "it."

-[LAUGHS]
-[CHUCKLES] You're on!

[GIGGLES]

[GRUNTING, LAUGHS]

You wit, Olie!

OLIE: Aha!

-[GRUNTING] Yeehaw!
-[OLIE LAUGHING]

-BOTH: Got ya, Pappy!
-[ZOWIE CHUCKLES]

[LAUGHS]

Well, this night's almost over.

-Already?
-Yeah. Time to hop into old teddy here

and wait for Mr. Sunny to come back out.

OLIE: This was the bestest day ever,
Pappy. Um... [CHUCKLING] ...I mean, night.

[CHUCKLES] Oops. Five, four, three, two,

-one! [CHUCKLING]
-[FANFARE TUNE PLAYING]

PAPPY: Well, Mr. Sunny and Moony
are all done dancin'

-at least for another bazillion years.
-[KIDS CHUCKLE]

You know, I'm sure glad I got my share
of this eclipse-o-rama

with my two favorite-est bots.

-Me, too, Pappy.
-Yeah!

Hey, breakfast time.

-But it's the middle of the day.
-[LAUGHS]

-Yeah, but Mr. Sunny just came up.
-Yay, rolie-os!

Daddy, Daddy, me stay up
all, all, all night.

I, uh, guess I must have nodded off.
[CHUCKLES]

You were snoring as loud
as a diesel engine.

[BOTH LAUGH]

So, how was the old eclipse-o-rama?

Mr. Sunny and Moony dance, dance, dancey.

It was swell. Thanks to Pappy,
we'll never forget it.

Not for a bazillion years.

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

[BOTH IMITATE BIKE SOUNDS]

[ZOWIE PANTS]

[PANTING]

-[IMITATES BIKE SOUNDS]
-[PANTS]

[WHIMPERS]

Hmm.

-What's the matter, Zow?
-Zowie want ride big bike like Olie.

-Hey, why don't you try mine?
-[GASPS] Zowie ride Olie bike!

[GIGGLES]

Uh-oh. We have a little problem.

The bike's a bit too big.

Oh.

Well, if we can't move the pedals up,
we'll just move you down.

There.

-Ready, Zow?
-ZOWIE: Go! Go!

[GIGGLES]

[CHUCKLES, GASPS] Zowie, look...

-[SPOT GRUNTING]
-...out.

-[BARKS]
-[GIGGLES] Big bike fun.

You almost had it that time, Zow.
Ready for another try?

-Zowie ready try!
-PAPPY: Hey!

What's all the commotion, kids?

It sounded like a meteor landed
in the backyard.

That was Zowie.
She's learning how to ride my two-wheeler.

-Oh! Two-wheeler, huh?
-Big bike, big noise!

-[BOTH GIGGLE]
-You know, you're a fine bot for tying

to help your sister out, Olie,
but, uh, I think it'd be better

if a grown-up were to teach her how
to ride.

-And there's nobody more grown up than me.
-Wow!

-You can ride a bike, Pappy?
-I've been riding bikes

since before they invented two-wheelers.

Well, I only had a one-wheeler!

-[ZOWIE GASPS]
-Wow!

One-wheel, Olie?

-Yippee! [LAUGHS]
-Wow! Look at Pappy go!

-Whoa. [EXCLAIMS]
-[SPOT BARKS]

First tip is, don't look down
at the wheel.

Look where you're going, hey!

-Yahoo! Whoa!
-[BOTH GASP]

-PAPPY: Always lean into the turns.
-[SPOT BARKING]

-PAPPY: Oh!
-[BOTH CHEERING]

-PAPPY: Whoa!
-I ride now, Pappy?

PAPPY: Hang onto your hinges, Zow.
Got a few more tips for you.

Just as soon as I remember how
to get off this thing.

-[CRASHING]
-[TIRES SQUEALING]

BOTH: Hi, Uncle Giz.

Well, howdy, bots. I say, was that Pappy
I just saw roll by?

Pappy zoom-zoom, crash!

-[GIGGLES]
-Zoom-zoom, crash, huh?

[SCOFFS] So, what's new with you two,
anyhoo?

Me learn ride big bike like Olie
and Uncle Giz.

Well, that's capital-T, uh, terrific.

Seems like you're growing up mighty fast,
kiddo.

Zowie want to go fast,
zoom, zoom, zoom, zoom!

Pappy was giving Zow lessons,
but he kind of got carried away.

No problemo. Who knows more
about riding two-wheelers

-than Uncle Giz?
-Want me to hold the bike while you...

Now, cool your pistons a sec.

I think Zow could use
a little back yard testing, first,

okey-dokey?

BOTH: [SIGH] Okey-dokey, Uncle Giz.

[GRUNTS] Now, you see, balancing
is tricky, so...

But, see, I... I rode the waves
with the Great Gearhuna, so...

So I... [GRUNTS]

Uh, you... you see, you might not get
it the first time,

-but if you stick with it...
-[LAUGHS]

GIZMO: ...hey.

Balance, check.

Whoo! Sure looks like little Zow knows
how to ride a wave, Dave.

Well, how's about a little reflex test
with the old boinky here?

Wow! [LAUGHS]

Whoo!

-ZOWIE: Yay!
-Reflexes, check.

Hmm. Now let's measure
your kicking capacity, kiddo.

-Leg strength, checkity-check.
-Man, oh, man.

Those are some high-powered springs
you got there.

[GIGGLES] Now, Zowie ride big bike.

Well, hang on, now. We haven't done a...
An eye test yet.

Yeah, that's it. Got to see
if them peepers are keepers.

[SIGHS] Peeper test, too, Uncle Giz?

Test your peepers for what, Punkin?

[SIGHS] So Zow can ride my bike.
Uncle Giz is helping her get ready.

That's awful nice of you, Giz.

Are you sure you're ready to ride
a big bike, Zow?

Zowie ready now.

Not just yet, Punkin.
A big bike can mean big bumps.

that means big padding for my little girl.

Oh.

There. Now you'll be safe and sound.

-[MUFFLED JABBERING]
-I can't hear you, Zow.

[SIGHS] Zowie ride big bike now, Olie?

PERCY: How's about a proud Polie grin?

Got to have some footage of this
for the Polie archives.

[GROANS]

-PAPPY: Orbs up, everybody!
-[GRUNTS]

-Whoa. Whoa.
-GIZMO: Incoming!

-[GRUNTS, GROANING]
-POLINA: Goodness!

-GIZMO: Great rollin' doughnuts.
-[GROANS] I'm... I'm fine.

Yeah, I... I was just showing Zow
a thing or two about bicycle riding.

-[CHUCKLES]
-Zow's got to know that balance...

Whoa. Whoa... Is the key.

Let's not forget about keeping
both eyes front

-and your knees pumping. [PANTING]
-PERCY: Zow's not going anywhere

until I give that two-wheeler
a tip-top tune-up.

POLINA: Safety first, though.
She needs more padding.

GIZMO: She has some to hold
her antenna straight, too.

-Ready to give it another try, Zow?
-Zowie ready. Zowie ready long time.

[ZOWIE LAUGHS]

I think Zow should try
some altitude training on the trampoline.

Then she can start
her stretching exercises.

How about some training wheels?
Just two or three sets ought to do it.

Oh, this might give her just
a wee bit more protection.

Ride! Ride! Ride!

-[ZOWIE GIGGLING]
-Way to go, Zow.

-Oh, my.
-PERCY: Oh, wow, girl.

-[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
-GIZMO: What do you know?

-POLINA: Good going, Zow.
-[LAUGHS]

[ALL LAUGH]

-You did it, Zow.
-Big bike, big fun, fun, fun.

-[GIGGLES]
-[SIGHS] I guess the hardest part

of teaching your little bot to ride
is learning to let go.

[ALL LAUGH]

[BIKE BELL TRILLING]

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

[PAPPY HUMMING]

[SIGHING] Everyone ready
for Olie's big winky ball game?

-Can't wait, Pappy.
-It's going to be one jim-dandy of a game.

So, where's the little superstar?

Olie's upstairs. He's not ready yet.

Hmm.

[SIGHS]

PAPPY: Olie? Hey, Olie.

Hey, you better throw it into gear, boy.
Time's a-wasting.

Well, what are you doing
just sitting around?

Today's the biggest winky ball game yet.

I know.

Oh.

Why the Gloomy Gus?

I don't want to play in
today's big winky ball game.

Oh... What?

I've been winked
the last 15 games straight.

I don't want Mom and Dad
to see me wink out again.

Well, that's one wicked winky ball slump,
all right.

[GRUNTS] Almost as bad as your dad's.

Mine's not the longest winky ball slump
in history?

Oh. [CHUCKLES]
You're not even close, Olie.

Here. Let me tell you the story
of Mighty Percy.

[GRUNTS] Now, that was a slump.

[CROWD CHEERING]

PAPPY: The outlook wasn't sunny
for the Polieviller's that day.

It was a five-to-two score with,
but one round to play.

But hope still flowed
through the Polieville crowd.

They cheered their winkers
with voices quite loud.

Come on, Gizzy. You can do it.

PAPPY: Giz had scored
both of the winks that day.

And despite the score
things still seemed okay.

-[RATTLING]
-[CROWD BOOING]

PAPPY: Gizmo dug in
and got good and ready,

holding his racquet ever so steady.

And with one mighty swing
you could hear the air sing.

-That winky ball went a-hurtling away.
-[CROWD CHEERING]

PAPPY: Uh, Giz Wacked that ball
into a whole other day.

Gizmo skated like a robot possessed.

But that winky ball...
Well, he just wouldn't rest.

Gizmo touched one wink.

Then two winks.

-Then he touched three.
-[GRUNTS]

MALE VOICE: Go, Gizzy, go.

PAPPY: Gizmo was going to win the game.
It was plain to see.

-Then the unthinkable was thinked.
-Whoa.

PAPPY: And suddenly...

Gizmo was winked.

GIZMO: Oh, no.

-[GASPS]
-Gizzy!

He got winked? He lost all his points?

Yep. He got winked.

So, what happened next?

-[CROWD CHEERING]
-[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

PAPPY: There was only one
little winker left to play.

About little Percy there's not much
you could say.

[CROWD BOOING]

It's your turn up, Percy.

Go one out there
and give that winky ball a whirl.

It's five to two.

There's no way I could get
a four-point super-wink.

I'm in a slump.

-I don't want to let everyone down again.
-Hey, as long as you keep trying

and trying, and trying your very best
you'll never let anyone down.

You can do it, Percy.
Just keep your eye on the winky ball.

PAPPY: Getting a super-wink
filled little Percy with doubt.

-And that winky ball chuckled.
-[CHUCKLES]

PAPPY: This was a sure winky out.

Now you won't find this next part
in any ol' book.

It was too much to take.
The crowd couldn't look.

Whoa, whoa!

PAPPY: The crowd roared to life.
We were so proud.

-[CROWD CHEERING]
-PAPPY: Everyone shouted and cheered out

-and cried right out loud.
-Skate, Percy.

Go, go, go!

PAPPY: There was shining excitement
on everyone's faces.

And little Percy was off to the races.

Little Percy Dodged, ducked, and rolled.

-He was awesome. He just wouldn't fold.
-MAN: Go, Percy.

All right, little brother.

PAPPY: Little Percy was sure to get winked
that we all reckoned.

-[GRUNTS]
-PAPPY: Instead,

he rocketed straight to that winky
at second.

What happened next, Pappy?

[LAUGHS] Jumping Jiminy.

The winky ball had him now,
we all concurred.

But Percy jumped, juked, and jived
his way onto third.

-Yeah, Percy.
-[CHEERS]

-Yeah.
-He's trying to win the game.

Gee-whiz. He went for the super-wink?

Darn tooting.

-[PANTS]
-[CROWD CHEERING]

[ALL CHEERING]

-Yeah!
-Yeah, Percy. All right, Percy.

[GIGGLES]

There was much joy in Polieville
I'm here to say.

For mighty Percy won the big game
that day.

-Hooray! Dad won the game.
-That's right.

But you know the thing I was proudest

of wasn't that he won the game
and broke his slump,

but that he got up there
and tried one more time.

-[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]
-[CROWD CHEERING]

[OLIE GRUNTS]

-Come on, Olie. You can do it.
-[CHEERS]

[CROWD CHEERING]

Uh-oh.

[GRUNTS] Gotcha.

Yahoo!

-Hooray!
-[CHEERS]

-You got the super-wink, Olie.
-I knew you could do it.

-Hooray. Attaboy, Olie.
-[CHEERS]

-[CHEERS]
-Way to go, Olie.

Jumping Jupiters, Olie.
Where'd you learn all those fancy moves?

[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]

PAPPY: And there was much joy
in Polieville we're all here to say.

For mighty Olie won the big game that day.
