[Sniffs]

...Doesn't it
smell nice?

[sniffs]

Mmm!
Sweet!

I think it's my
favourite smell.

Mine is chocolate
chip cookies.

What's your favourite
smell, Sally?

Hmmm I don't know.
Maybe some kind of flower?

There are lots of
flowers in the backyard.

Maybe one of those
is your favourite?

Let's go find out!

[chuckle]
Have fun, you two...

[inhale] Mm.
That smells nice...

But it's not
my favourite...

[sniffs]
Ugh...

What's THAT smell?

Don't you just LOVE a good stinky cheese sandwich?

[laughs]
I know I do!

[laughs]

The Cat!

The Cat in the Hat!

Do you want a taste?

Huh? Uh,
no thanks.

It's too stinky.

Okedokey!

We're trying to find
Sally's favourite smell.

Want to help?

I'd LOVE to!

Sniff and Seek is one
of my favourite games.

It always reminds
me of Whiffy.

What's a Whiffy?

It's not a 'what'
it's a 'who'!

Whiffy is a
friend of mine.

He knows a lot
about smells.

Hey, if he knows about smells,
maybe he can help Sally

find her favourite smell?

Hmmm...Well,
he IS the best smell-maker

in Smelligawift forest...

Great!
Can we meet him?

Of course!

Your mother will not
mind at all if you do.

[laughs]
MOMMM!

Can we go to
Smelligawift forest

to find my favourite smell?

Smelligawift?
[chuckle] Sure, honey.

I can't wait to smell

Thanks!

We can go!We can go!
We can go!We can go!

Dis cold has me

Agh!
Look out!

A skunk!

Whoa!

That's a funny
way to say hello.

[chuckle]
That's all right.

I know what people
think about skunks.

It's, it's okay!
I, I don't smell bad.

You don't?You don't?

[chuckling] Well,
not right now.

I only make a stink, when
I have good reason to.

Sorry about that.
I'm Nick.

Uh,
and I'm Sally.

Nice to meet you!

Likewise! So, what brings you
all to Smelligawift?

We're playing Smell and Seek!

I'm trying to find out
what my favourite smell is.

Cat says you know
a lot about smells.

[chuckling] Ooh, I know
a lot about making them.

[laugh]
And I know where to find

all kinds of other
smells, too.

[excited gasp]
Can I show you around?

Okay,
thanks!

Fish?
Do you want to come?

No,
you go on ahead.

I've heard chicken
soup helps a cold,

so I'm going to
give it a try...

[sniff...sigh...]

I hope you feel
better soon Fish.

Let's go!

♪

[sniff]

Now, this log
has a great smell.

Have a sniff!

[sniff]
Ugh!

All I smell
is stinky wet leaves.

You like that smell,
Whiffy?

Love it!

I used to live in
this rotten log.

[reminiscing chuckle]
Aah, the memories, hmm.

Ooh!

And over here is my very
favourite smelling plant...

[chuckling]
Skunk cabbage!

[laughs]

[inhales]
ahhh!

Ugh!
YUCK!

Ewww.. It smells like
something went rotten

in the fridge!

I know!
Don't you just love it?

It's awful!

Why does it smell so BAD?

It smells stinky so that big
animals don't bother it.

That smell helps
to keep it safe!

Ah ha, so the bad
smell is useful?

[chuckling]
Exactly!

So NOW do you like it?

...NO.

Oh...Okay,
okay, I get it.

You don't like stinky smells.

I do...

I like stinky cheese!
[giggles]

But I like
pretty smells.

Ones that make you
want to come close

and smell them again!

Well, er, well er those
are okay too...I guess.

[sniffs] Hey Sally, I
smell something nice!

[sniffs] I think
it's over there!

Let's go see!

Oh...[giggle]
I mean, smell.

[gasp]
I know what you're smelling.

C'mon!

♪

Ah ha!
TA DAA!

[chuckles]

Bushes?

Blueberry bushes.
Have a sniff!

[sniff]
Mmm!

They smell so sweet.

Like blueberry jam!

[sniff]
Or blueberry pie.

Or blueberry muffins!

You know what?

I think this is my
favourite smell!

You mean we did it?

We found your favourite smell?

Yes!

High-five!

[laughs]

Yeah!

Smelleriffic!

I just knew you'd be

[startled yelp]
Ahhhuhuh!

I wish we could share, but
there's only one pail left.

And my friends need them!

Sorry,
Buster.

Huh?
But I'm hungry!

Nobody says no
to Buster bear...

[growl]

Uh-hum...I do.

[close-whispering]
Whiffy? Whiffy?

I guess you didn't notice,
but bears are

a LOT bigger than skunks.

Which is why us skunks have
a way to protect ourselves.

Remember when I said I only
make a stink when

I have a good reason to?

Why yes?

Well,
he's a good reason.

I'll give you a
ten second head start.

Ahhh!

Agh!

Hey! Come back with those!

Buster.

I have a smell and I'm
not afraid to use it!

Hey,
guess what!

My cold is getting better.

I can smell again!

[sniffs...laughs]

Great news Fish!
...sort of.

What do you mean,
'sort of'?

You wouldn't spray me.

Ooh-ho no?

Sorry Buster.

I warned you!

YUCK!

Ewww.
Get me out of here!

Ugh,

♪

UGH! What in the world
is that SMELL!

It's Whiffy.

He smells worse
than skunk cabbage!

At least it got
rid of Buster.

Just like the skunk cabbage
smell got rid of us!

I guess Whiffy was right.

A stinky smell IS useful!

The smell of a rose
may thrill your nose

much more than a
skunky spray.

But a skunk's bad smell
can be just swell

for chasing a pest away!

Good-bye!

Thanks Whiffy!

See ya! [laughing]
Happy sniffing!

Mom!
We did it!

We found my favourite smell!

Wild blueberries?

Ah.

Maybe later, we can
make a blueberry pie?

Hmm, yummy.

Then it's a good thing

A time when
everything's scary.

Uh...

Everything except our masks.

We tried to make them
scary but they're

just funny-looking!

We really need some
scary mask ideas, Cat.

Hmmm...I know someone who
might be able to help.

[excited gasp]
You do?

Aiya the Aye Aye,

who lives in the
Forest of Spookywoowoo.

What's an Aye Aye?

An Aye Aye's a creature
as odd as can be,

He lives in the jungle
and sleeps in a tree.

A lot like an ape and
a little like you...

[laughs]

He's small and he's
hairy and quite scary too.

Will he give us a
scary-mask idea?

Let's go and see!

Your Mother will not
mind at all if you do!

What's wrong?

Well,
you're scary!

No.
You're the scary one!

[laughs]
Me?

Your ears -
they're scary!

They'd be great
to copy for our masks.

Hmmm.

Well, I think your teeny
tiny ears look scary, too.

My ears are
not-at-all-scary.

They are very,
very useful!

Useful,
for what?

For hearing bugs!

I bet I can find a
bug before you can -

just by using my ears!

You can hear bugs
inside this tree?

That's impossible!

Not with my incredible,
useful ears!

[laughs]

Wow look at those teeth!

We can copy them
for our Halloween masks!

Yeah,
they really are scary!

Excuse me!

My teeth are NOT scary.

They're very...
very...

...useful?

That's right...
for catching bugs!

Come on,
I'll show ya.

Cool!

My scritchy scratchy
bug-listener tells me

there are more bugs
inside this tree.

Do you think you can
get them by using your teeth?

Sure can!

You're going to bite
the tree...?

Yuck!
- Yuck!

[bite and spit]

Oh, I found a bug!
Look!

Yay!

Wow, your teeth
are pretty sharp!

[laughs]
Thanks.

Look at those scary fingers!

They'd be great with
our Halloween masks!

Some bugs hide deep
down inside the tree.

But I can reach them!

[excited gasp] He's caught one!

[chuckles]

You need Aye Aye
fingers to grab those bugs!

[eating noises]

EWWWWWWWWWW!

What?
You don't eat bugs?

Mmmm!

Delicious!

[laughs]

I guess if you live in this forest and eat bugs

it does make sense
to have long fingers...

And sharp teeth...

And long ears.

Aiya looks scary to us but
he's just perfect

for where he lives.

Although your eyes are maybe
just the tiniest bit scary.

They are not!
- Are!

Are not!

My eyes can see
in the dark.

Big eyes are very,
very...

Useful!
- Useful!

[chuckles]

But I bet I can
out stare you!

I'd like to see you try.

How about a game of

"who can stare the longest,
without blinking"?

Yay!
