- Hello! I'm Peg,
and this is Cat,

and we're making my room
all neat and clean

because my mom's
having company over,

and when they get here,
they'll be the first guests ever

to see Cat's amazing drawing:

The Circles!

Aren't these the coolest circles
you've ever seen with your eyes

in the history of your life?

How did he get them
to be soooo round?

- Uh... I used a cup.

- I like drawing
rectangles myself.

Love those straight edges!

Think I'll color this
with my favorite crayon,

Little Bluey.

Little Yellow...
Little Green...

(She gasps.)
...but no Little Bluey?

It's not in the drawer.

Not on the floor.
We've got

a BIG PROBLEM!

Cat hates to see me sad!

He's really getting charged up.

- Hold me... baaaaaack!

- He's found stuff
that's little and orange...

big and blue...
but will he ever

find... Little Bluey!

Cat found my favorite crayon!
And soooo...

- ♪ We solved the problem,

- Cat?
- Yes?

- When you were looking
for Little Bluey,

did you, um, mess up my room?

- No... Yes.

- It's OK, but the company's
gonna be here any minute,

so we've got
a REALLY BIG PROBLEM!

Nobody can see my room like this
with my stuff

all over the place!
(Cat snickering)

What?

My underwear with polka dots!

How embarrassing would that be
if the guests could see that?

Or my grandparents!
(laughing)

Or--
- Hey, Peg!

- Ramone?!

Let's block the window
so Ramone can't see the mess!

Hey, Ramone!
What are you doing here?

- Your mom invited me to play
accordion for the company.

I'm a little early,
so wanna jam?

- We'd love to,
but we're, uh... exercising!

Yeah, that's what we're doing.

Lifting circles really
strengthens your elbows!

- You're lifting circles, Peg,

but those balls that Cat's
lifting are spheres.

Circles are flat,
but spheres aren't.

- That's really cool info,
Ramone,

but we gotta keep exercising.

- And a one,
and a two!

- OK, I'll practice
in the yard.

See ya soon!

- What are we gonna do
with all this stuff?

We can't just throw it away.
I need my stuff!

- Oh, yeah.

- But I know what we CAN do!

We can sort it!
- Yes!

- Do you know what sorting is?
- No!

- Sorting is when you separate
things based on size or shape

or whatever,
so they look really neat!

Ready to sort?

- Sort of!
(Cat laughs.)

This whole part of my room is
totally junk-free!

- Or it was.

- Triangles.
You don't think...

- I do.
- (both): The pig.

- Look at you, covered in all
my triangle-shaped stuff.

You're even wearing
my toy pizza slices
on your feet!

And playing my triangle!
(triangle clanging)

What is it with you
and triangles?

- ♪ I love their sides,

- Yeah, all right. You can
sing about it another time.

Right now we need you
to put these triangles away

and help us sort.
- Hmph!

- I'll let you borrow
my bathing suit

with the triangle designs.

If I can find it.

Who opened my gumball machine
and took all the yellow ones?

You don't think...
- I do.

- (Peg and Cat): Big Mouth?
- Hmm?

- Did you take
my yellow gumballs?

- Mm-mm!

- (Cat): Yeah, right.

(slurping)

- Can't resist things that are
little and yellow, can ya?

(growling)

If you stick around
and help us sort my stuff,

I'll let you borrow
Little Yellow!

And there's the triangle
bathing suit for you.

- Look at all this stuff.
It's all round, all of it.

How can we possibly sort it?!

We can't just sit on it!

We can't just eat it!

We've got to sort it!
And I have no idea how!

(doorbell)
And the company's here!

They can't see my room
all messy.

They'll never see
Cat's drawings!

I am totally
freaking out!

(Cat blows a whistle.)

Cat's right.

I should count backwards
from five to calm down.

Five, four, three,

two, one.

That's it!
You did it again,

you amazing genius!
- Mm?

- The things that rolled away
are spheres.

The flat things are circles.

Pig and Big Mouth,
you put the circles in this box

while Cat and I put
the spheres in that one.

Because we know the difference
between circles and spheres,

and we know about sorting,

my room is going to be
neater than ever!

- Oh, mermaid, why are you
so full of sadness and grief?

- Yeah, you seem
really bummed out.

- Oh, Knights
of the Round Table!

My three golden pyramids have
been taken!

They are so beautiful,
you cannot even imagine them!

- They're pyramids, so they have
triangles on their sides

that come together
in a point at the top, right?

- Yes!
- And there are three of them,

and they're gold!

- Well, maybe you can
imagine them.

But you cannot imagine
the strange toad who stole them.

He walks on two legs.

- I can imagine a toad
walking on one... two legs.

- Yes!
- Good imagining, Peg the Bold!

- Fear not, mermaid!

The Knights of the Round Table
will find the evil toad

and bring back
your golden pyramids!

- Please hurry, knights.

I really miss
my golden pyramids.

- We must find that toad fast,
Brave Sir Cat!

- I know.
- But he's nowhere to be found!

We've got a BIG PROBLEM!
(ominous trumpet calls)

If only there were clues
that would lead us to the toad!

But there's only trees
and river and mud.
- Whoa-ho-ho-ho!

- What clues have you found
down there,

Brave Sir Cat?
- Uh, well...

- Tiny footprints!

Two at a time!
- Whoa.

- The toad who stole the golden
pyramids walks on two feet.

Could these be
the toad's footprints?

- Uh... yeah!

- You genius knight!

Shall we follow the footprints

- I kinda thought so.

- We, the Knights
of the Round Table,

have come to take back
the golden pyramids!

- How 'bout you take
some cubes instead?

- Cubes?
- A cube is a lovely shape.

It's got a square on every side!

- There is a square
on this side. And this side.

- And this side too!

- You can stack 'em up.

Knock 'em down.

With cubes,
the fun never stops!

Three golden cubes.
There ya go.

Just like pyramids, really.

- But pyramids have triangles
on their sides.

Cubes have squares.
They're totally not the same!

you must defeat the dragon
and demand his treasure!

- We can't defeat a dragon!

it has squares on the top
and on the bottom, not circles!

I mean I have this!

That's a sphere!
It's shaped like a ball!
