03x02 - The Berenstain Bears and The Big Blooper / Nothing To Do

Post by bunniefuu »

THEME SONG: Somewhere
deep in Bear Country,

lives the Berenstain
Bear family.

They're kind of furry
around the torso,

they're a lot like
people, only more so.

The bear fact is that
they're just like you and me.

The only difference is
they live in a tree.

The Berenstain Bears.

When things go wrong
as things might do,

the Berenstain Bears
will find a way through.

Mama, Papa, Sister
and Brother will

always be there for each other.

The bear fact is that they
can be sweet as honey.

Sometimes you'll find they
might be just plain funny.

The Berenstain Bears.

The Berenstain Bears.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

SISTER: Cubs learn
new words every day,

including some that
they should not say.

I think this is a lovely
day for a picnic, Sister.

Yes, I couldn't
agree more, Lizzie.

My little Angela has been
talking about it for days.

You know how excited she gets.

Oh, yes.

Brenda has been asking and
asking when Saturday's coming.

They're going to have
such a good time today.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Oh, no.

So much for our
picnic in the park!

Who says the picnic
has to be outside?

Come on, I'll race
you back to my house!

OK!

[LAUGHS]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Mommy!

I can't eat any
more of my sandwich!

I'm stuffed!

I'm stuffed, too.

We told you not to
eat your cookies first.

[GIGGLES]

Can we play a game now?

Yes, we want to have
a potato sack race.

What do you think, Lizzie?

They do need to
burn off some energy.

Yay!

Let's go.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

On your marks, get set, go!

Go, Brenda, go!

[GIGGLES]

[PHONE RINGS]

Come on, Angela,
you can do it!

Go, Brenda!

Hello?

I'm fine, thanks.

How are you, Mrs. Bearfoot?

[GIGGLING LOUDLY]

Uh-huh.

Hurry, hurry!

Just a minute, Mrs. Bearfoot.

Lizzie, could you and Sister
do something a little quieter

while I'm on the phone, please?

OK.

Brenda, it's time
for you and Angela

to have your afternoon naps.

Yes, it's nap time, girls.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

No monkey business, you two.

We'll be listening.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Do you want to watch a video?

OK!

Hm, how about
Rover the Rescue Dog?

[GIGGLES]

It's like this.

Arf, arf!

What is it, Rover?

Arf, arf!

Is Sally in trouble?

Arf, arf!

I think Rover wants
us to follow him.

Come on!

[GIGGLES]

No, thanks.

I've seen it , times.

Same here.

What else do you have?

Francis the Fearless Frog?

You know, she
leaps from lily pad

to lily pad in a single bound!

Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit!

[GIGGLES]

I don't think so.

What else is there?

Trouble at Big Bear High.

Hm, my brother must
have rented this one.

School rules and
cheerleaders' hearts

get broken when teen
sensation, Jason Kodiak,

enrolls at Big Bear High.

Who's Jason Kodiak?

Beats me.

I'm not a teen.

How about it?

Let's see what it's like!

[TAPE CLICKS]

[CROWD CHEERING]

All right, basketball!

I like it so far.

Out of my way, guys,
I got points to score.

[CHEERING]

Woah!

He has the moves!

Uh huh.

Your team's going
down, furball!

Hah!

Who are you calling
furball, furball?

[CROWD CHEERING]

Awesome sh*t!

Your team is going
down, furball.

Who you calling
furball, furball?

[GIGGLING]

Peanut scramble!

Hurry, Brenda!

Come on, Angela!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Hey, that's mine peanut!

Your peanut?

I grabbed it first!

Well, I saw it first!

Give it here, you furball!

No way, furball!

[GIGGLING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Aha!

Nice save, Lizzie!

Huh?

Thanks, Millie.

Hi, Stacy.

Hi, Millie.

Wanna play with us?

Sure!

OK!

Great!

Grab a racket.

Sister and I will
play against you two.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Here.

You can have the first serve.

Ready?

Yep!

Ready!

Yay, I got a point!

Nice one!

Guess again.

[GIGGLES]

You have to serve
underhand, not overhand.

How come?

Because those are the rules.

[GIGGLES]

What a furball!

[LAUGHS]

A furball, right.

[GIGGLES]

OK, your serve, Lizzie.

Hey, where are you going?

To find some
friends to play with.

Hmph!

Talk about poor sports.

I'll say.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Mm!

Mm!

Honey, these beet
greens are delicious!

Thank you, dear.

Is there something the matter
with your beet greens, Brother?

Nothing that a little
ketchup won't fix.

MAMA: Whoops!

Brother!

Look what you did!

Sorry.

You're such a furball.

[GASPS]

[FORK CLINKS]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

What?

Did I say something wrong?

You certainly did, young lady.

That's a terrible
thing to call someone!

Wherever did you hear
language like that?

On a video.

What sort of video?

Trouble at Big Bear High.

Woah!

Trouble at Big Bear High?

That video's not
for little cubs.

If it has that
kind of talk in it,

I don't think it's fit
for big cubs, either.

Lizzie's older
brother rented it.

I didn't know!

I know you didn't know.

But now you do.

You could really
hurt someone's feelings

with that word.

But the important thing is we
caught it in time before you

said it to someone else.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

BROTHER: Uh oh.

I think she said
it to someone else.

Oh, Sister.

Mama, I need to go
see Lizzie right away.

Hurry along, then.

And I thought I did
dumb things sometimes!

Hah.

Oops.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

You know that word
we've been saying?

It's a bad word.

Now you tell me.

I called my brother a--

you know what.

Right in front of my mom!

Oh, no.

Oh, yes.

I didn't know it was a bad word.

Boy, did I ever
get a talking to.

[SIGH]

I wish we'd never
watched that video.

Me, too.

No wonder Stacy and Millie
didn't want to play with us.

I forgot about
Stacy and Millie.

I wonder what they think of us?

Now what do we do?

We tell them we're sorry.

Come on!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

I got it!

Wait, I got ya, Sister!

Aw!

Yay!

We won!

Good game!

Yeah, thanks for
playing with us again.

We were afraid you
wouldn't want to after we

called you that word.

Well, we weren't
going to at first.

After all, crude
talk is rude talk.

And name calling is nasty.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

You're right.

We're really sorry.

That's OK.

We all make mistakes, except
for Millie and me, of course.

Huh?

[GIGGLING]

Oops.

Are we going to play
another game or what?

Let's go!

The best two out of three.

What do you say?

You're on!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Mama, why do
cubs say bad words?

It's an easy way to
get attention, I suppose.

And they might think it
makes them sound grown up.

Sound grown up?

Mm-hmm.

Grown ups sometimes say those
kinds of rude words, too

and there's just no need for it.

Saying words that hurt other
people's feelings doesn't

sound very grown up to me.

You're right.

Our language has so many
words to choose from.

When you pick words
that show respect

for the feelings of others,
you say a lot about yourself.

I know tons of nice words.

That's because
you're a very nice cub.

Good night, dear.

Good night, Mama.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[SISTER SCREAMS]

[LAUGHS]

The rubber Cobra
strikes again!

You nearly gave me a
heart att*ck, you fur--

uh, you furry brother.

Is everything
all right in here?

Uh, everything's fine, Mama.

Right, sis?

Uh, huh, everything's fine.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[LAUGHS]

Goodnight, sis.

Goodnight, brother.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[SHOUTS]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

MAMA: When cubs complain
there's nothing to do,

that's when they're
ready for a chore or two.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

I must remember to clean
those bedroom windows.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Oh, excuse me, please.

Sorry.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Oh!

What are you two cubs doing?

[SIGHS]

Nothing.

There's nothing to do.

Nothing to do?

Everyone else seems to be
able to find things to do.

What do you mean?

Look over there.

That robin is busy
feeding her chicks,

the bees are gathering nectar.

When they get home to the hive,
they'll be busy making honey.

And look at that
toad over there.

He doesn't look very busy.

Hm.

I guess he is busy.

Why don't you
two go for a hike?

It's such a lovely day.

A hike is just
walking somewhere.

Walking isn't any fun.

And then we'd have to turn
around and walk back again.

Well, there are plenty
of other things to do.

You could pick
raspberries in the garden,

play in your
clubhouse, climb trees.

I don't think so.

Thanks anyway, Mama.

Yeah, I don't feel like
doing those things, either.

Say, I just had an idea.

Follow me.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

You know, I'm actually
glad you two have nothing

to do because I have
a lot of work to do

and it would be wonderful
to have some help.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[LAUGHS NERVOUSLY]

You know what?

I just remembered
something I have to do.

Me, too.

Oh?

I told Brother I'd help
him pick raspberries!

Oh, right, and I told sister
I'd help her pick raspberries!

Bye!

Oh.

Well, at least I won't be
tripping over them anymore.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Hmm.

We need something bigger to
put these raspberries in.

Let's go back to the
house and get some bowls.

Good idea!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[CUPBOARD SQUEAKS]

Sh!

It's not me, it's the door!

Papa, is that you?

Yep, it's me.

Got my chores done.

Didn't take me as
long as I thought.

What do you say we go outside
and enjoy this beautiful day?

Oh, Papa.

That would be nice, but I've
barely started my chores.

I have to sweep the floors,
wash the windows, dust.

It'll take me all day.

Well, four hands
work faster than two.

I'll help you.

Oh, that's so thoughtful.

When we finish, we can
enjoy what's left of the day

together.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Kind of makes you
feel crummy, doesn't it?

Yeah.

When Mama told Papa all
the chores she had to do,

he didn't run away like we did.

No.

And now they'll both be
inside cleaning all day.

And it's such a nice day.

Hm.

What if we helped, too, sis?

They'd be finished sooner.

Then we could all go
outside and have fun!

I think that's a great idea!

OK, I'll ask Mama and
Papa what jobs we should do.

Wait!

What if we surprise them?

Surprise them?

[LAUGHS]

That sounds like fun!

What's the plan?

Well, here's what
I was thinking.

While Mama and
Papa are upstairs,

we'll get to work down here.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Oh!

[BOTH LAUGHING]

[LAUGHING]

Sh, sh!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Did I wash this
window already?

I guess I was daydreaming
when I did this one.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[GRUNTS]

Can you help me reach the top
with those, please, brother?

Sure.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[MAMA HUMMING]

[GASPS]

Mama's coming!

[MAMA HUMMING]

Oh!

Papa's already polished this.

Close one.

Come on, let's hurry!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[HAMMERING]

[STEP SQUEAKS]

Oh.

Sometimes I think you squeak
just to get attention.

[HAMMERING]

Papa, have you seen the cubs?

No.

Well, I guess they're
not bored anymore.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Hurry!

Oh, no.

[GASPS]

[SIGHS]

Be careful!

I can't be fast and careful.

Let's go.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[CUBS GIGGLING]

Wha-?

Papa is one step
ahead of me again.

I think I married a
high speed housekeeper.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Did you get the lemonade?

Yep.

Did you get the other stuff?

Uh huh.

I'm all ready.

The coast is clear.

Come on.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Those cubs drank
all the lemonade

and then they put the empty
pitcher back in the fridge.

We can make some more
when we finish, Papa.

And we're almost there.

Look!

We've done almost
everything on my list!

I didn't think we'd
be done this quickly.

That's what happens
when you share the work.

Thank you for helping me, dear.

[CHUCKLES]

I told you four hands
worked faster than two.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Brother's baseball.

It's not like Brother
to leave it lying around.

Haven't we done
enough work today

without picking up after them?

Is that my sun hat over there?

Suppose a gust of
wind carried it off?

Not unless it came
in the back door

and lifted it off the coat hook.

I haven't worn it today.

Hm, then maybe sister
brought it out here.

Oh, for pity's sakes.

There's one of my napkins!

[SIGHS]

Those cubs have
some explaining to do.

Oh, my word!

There's something
fishy about this.

Come on, Mama.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[CUBS GIGGLING]

Surprise!

[GIGGLING]

Look who's come to our picnic!

Boy, napkins are good bait!

So this is what
you've been up to today.

Yep.

Here, Papa, have some lemonade.

You look thirsty.

As a matter of fact, I am.

And I'm hungry!

There are honey and
peanut butter, honey

banana, and just plain honey.

Thank you!

This is such a
wonderful surprise.

Sister, what's that?

Nothing.

[SNIFFS]

It smells like lemon
furniture polish.

Papa, did you polish the
furniture in the living room?

Mm.

No, I thought you did it?

Are you sure you
didn't just forget?

[LAUGHING]

Ah!

So we had two extra
helpers all along.

Yes, it was us.

It was such a beautiful day.

We felt bad that you had
all those chores to do.

And when Papa said he'd help,
we thought we should pitch in,

too.

But we wanted it
to be a surprise.

Well, it sure was.

I guess we're not as fast at
cleaning as we thought, Papa.

Yes, four hands may
clean faster than two,

but eight hands
clean even faster!

Uh oh, we better finish the
sandwiches before the bees

steal their honey back!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Good play!

One good thing
about a picnic--

there are no dishes to wash.

Yeah.

I've had enough
cleaning for one day.

Me, too.

You know what's, sis?

We thought we were
doing something nice

for Mama and Papa, but
it turned out to be

something nice for us, too.

You're right.

Are you cubs ready to play?

Coming!
