four of my favorite Hoobs
down to Earth to find
out all about you
for my great Hoopapedia.
Here they come!

(popping)
I'll have one of those.
(buzzing)
Hello, little buzzy bee!
Have you come to look
at our Hoobie flowers?
Sorry, didn't quite catch that.
- Oh, Hoobadoob, Tula!
I wondered where you were.
- Oh, Hoobledoob, Groove.
Wow, what are your plans
for that big roll of paper?
- Oh, well, I was thinking
of drawing something,
but I'm not sure what.
(buzzing)
Oh, hello there
little buzzy bee.
- I think he's checking
out our Hoobie flowers.
(buzzing)
(sighing)
Oh, he's gone.
Obviously, he couldn't
find what he wanted.
- Well, I think I know
what a bee looks like,
I shall draw a bee.
- Ah, wonderful!
Have either of you two
thought of a question
for HoobNews?
- Sorry, Iver, we've been
too busy looking at a bee.
- Oh well, maybe
I'll get an idea
while I eat my breakfast.
Mmm, Hooby Goop on a Hooby Bun!
I can't wait! (laughs)
(upbeat music)
- Does a bee have
two wings or one?
- Oh no, oh no!
- Iver, are you okay?
- No, I'm not okay!
I've run out of Hooby Goop!
- Oh, that's too bad.
- And there's nothing
I like better than
sweet, runny, Hooby Goop
on a Hooby Bun.
(sad trombone rift)
- Can't we get anymore?
- (sighs) Not unless
we go back to Hoobland
and ask Auntie HattieHoop
to make us some more.
- I don't think we
can do that today.
- Why did we run out of it, why?
♪ Why, why, why, why? ♪
♪ Why, why, why? ♪
- The reason you've run out is
because you've eaten it all.
(crying)
- Oh, Iver, maybe
the peeps have got
something sweet and
runny like Hooby Goop.
- Do you think they
might have, Tula?
- Let's ask Hubba Hubba.
- Yes.
- Oh, don't worry,
little furry buddy.
(electric powering up)
- Hubba Hubba Hubba Hubba
- Hoobledoop Hoobs!
- Hoobledoop, Hubba Hubba!
- We were just
wondering, do you know
if peeps have anything
that's as sweet
and runny and delicious
as Hoobie Goop?
- Oh, well, I don't
know off hand,
but I'll check on Hoobnet.
Now, let me see.
Sweet, runny, delicious.
(static)
Ah, yes they do, and
it's called honey!
(zapping)
- Honey, oh just look at that!
- I'm going to
print it out, now!
- That looks just
like Hoobie Goop!
- So, who makes honey and how?
- Who makes and honey and how?
- Ah-ha, now that's
a perfect question
to answer on HoobNews!
All the information you
get will go straight
into my Hoobapedia!
Now, let me see.
Mhmm, I'll start by checking
out who makes things
on this peep planet.
(zapping)
Ah, here we are.
She's very busy
making something.
Ooh, they look very busy, too.
Now, what are they making here?
Oh, not Hoobie Goop.
Ooh, looks very heavy.
He's busy making something,
but it's still not Hoobie Goop.
Busy, busy, busy making, and
she's still making something.
You know, I haven't
seen anything
that looks like Hoobie Goop.
Wait a minute, ah-ha!
(zapping)
- Oh, that looked a
bit like Hoobie Goop!
Did you see that?
- Yeah.
- Maybe it's peeps!
I bet peeps know
how to make honey!
(zapping)
- Hubba, hubba, hubba, hubba.
- I don't know if
peeps can make honey,
but I do know that
they like to eat it.
Especially Tiddlypeeps!
- Then lets go and talk
to some Tiddlypeeps!
- Just what I was
going to suggest, Iver.
- I'll drive!
- No, no, I'll drive.
- No, no, no, it's fine!
- I like driving,
you know I like driving!
- I'm gonna carry
on drawing my bee.

hoobledoop, whoo, whoo, whoo!
- Hey, what's all this
stuff you're eating?
- It's our lunch!
- Look, I've run
out of Hoobie Goop
and I think I need to put
something on my Hoobie bun.
Now, what's it
called, honey, yes.
Can I taste your
sandwiches to see
if any of them taste
like Hoobie Goop?
- Of course, here, try this.
- Oh, thank you!
(chewing)
Mmm, what's in here?
- Peanut butter!
- Oh, it's delicious!
But it doesn't taste
anything like Hoobie Goop.
Oh, what about this one?
- It's cheese spread!
- Ahh, Groove, Groove, Groove!
Did you hear that?
I'm about to try cheese spread!
(chewing)
Mmm, mmm, fantabbyhoobie!
But not as fantabyhoobie
as Hoobie Goop, mmm.
Oh, may I try yours?
May I, may I?
(muffled yes)
Oh, thank you.
(chewing)
Mmm, this is the stuff!
Oh it's so like Hoobie Goop!
Is it honey?
- Yeah.
- Yes, it is called honey, Tula!
Hubba Hubba was right!
Who makes it, so that
I can go and get some?
- [Both] Bees!
- Oh, right, bees, bees?
(Tula sighing)
Those tiny, little
buzzy things make this?
Did you get that, Groove?
Are you sure?
- Yes.
- Yes!
- Well, thanks very
much, Tiddlypeeps,
you've been very helpful,
but I must be getting back
to the Hoobmobile.
Hoobletoodledoo!
- Hoobletoodledoo!
(Iver sighing)
(upbeat piano music)
- Can you believe that?
I mean, the Tiddlypeeps,
they usually know everything,
but this time, I think
they've gone Hoobiedoolally.
You see, how could
a little teeny bee
make a great big jar of honey?
- Well, I don't
know, but Tiddlypeeps
are nearly always right, so,
just have to wait and see.
How many wings did
you say a bee had?
- Two!
Look, I asked Hubba
Hubba for some pictures
of bees on Hoobnet.
- Oh, Tula, how
Hoobirgroovy is that?
Now, if I could just get
my paper to lie flat,
I could draw one, ah!
- Nothing about this bees
says "I can make honey" to me.
What about you?
- How could it even hold a
jar, it doesn't have any paws?
- Hmm, there must be somewhere
we can look for more
information, but where?
♪ Where, where, where? ♪
♪ Where? ♪
(zapping)
- I know where you
can look, Hoobs.
Here, I found a story.
There might just be some
clues for you in this.
(zapping)
(upbeat music)
- [Narrator] There was once
a big, bossy cauliflower.
He lived very happily
with lots of other things
inside a lovely, clean fridge.
On his shelf, there
was a lettuce,
a beetroot, a huge
box full of cheeses,
and a little bowl of peas.
One day, an enormous,
stinky cheese moved in
next to them all.
He was so big and so stinky
that all the vegetables
held their noses.
"Poo-wee, please, would you
go and live in the cheese box
"with all the other cheeses?"
"No, I like it here!"
said the cheese.
The cauliflower decided
that, if the cheese
wasn't going to
move by themself,
then the rest of them might
give him a little push.
First, the cauliflower tried.
(groaning)
But the cheese just didn't move.
Then the beetroot tried.
(groaning)
But still the
cheese didn't move.
Then the lettuce had a turn.
(groaning)
But the cheese just
would not budge.
Then, from the
back of the shelf,
came some small voices.
"We'll move it!"
It was the peas.
"You can't move a great,
big, stinky cheese!"
said the cauliflower.
"We may be small, but
there's lots of us!"
squeaked the peas.
And so, pea by pea,
they all rolled up
beside the cheese.
They rolled underneath
him, rolled him
to the back of the
shelf, and lifted him
into the cheese box.
"You know something!" said
the big, bossy cauliflower.
"You may be small, but you peas
"did a really good job together.
"It just goes to show that we
should give peas a chance."
(zapping)
- Now I have to say, the
stories Hubba Hubba finds
usually help us, but
what that had to do
with bees or honey...
- A bunch of peas worked
together to move a cheese.
- [Groove] Excuse me,
sorry, could you help me?
- Groove, Groove, we're
trying to work this out
or we won't have an
answer to our question.
- Ah, wait a
minute, I've got it!
Peas are little, right?
- Right.
- And bees are little, right?
- Right.
- [Groove] Sorry, could
someone just give me a hand?
- (sighs) Just a minute, Groove!
So, what the story
was saying was
that even if you're
little, as long
as there are lots of you...
- You can do anything!
- Even make honey!
Which means that a bee
doesn't make honey on its own.
He must get all his
little bee friends, to--
- [Groove] To help!
- This is right, Groove, help!
Oh, Groove, he got
rolled up in his paper.
- (grunting) Thank you, Tula.
Where's Iver?
- Oh!
(all laughing)
- Oh, Iver, this
paper is so roll-y.
- Help me, help me,
help me, Groove!
- All right, go on,
wriggle, wriggle, wriggle.
(popping)
- Now, the bees all work
together to make the honey.
But we still don't
know how they do it.
- [Phone] Hubba,
Hubba, Hubba, Hubba.
- I must say, Hoobs,
this is proving
to be a very interesting
question, isn't it?
Now, if you're still
having problems
working out how those
clever little bees
make honey together, why not pay
another visit to
the Tiddlypeeps?
They are always doing
things together.
- Hubba Hubba, you are a genius!
- Oh, thank you, Iver!
- Let's go, I'll drive!
- Are we sure, Tula?
- Oh yes!
- I don't mind, Tula.
- No, no, no,
don't mind driving.
- I don't mind driving
- And I'll finish my
picture of me bee.

- Oh, Hoobledoop, Iver!
- Hoobledoop, what
are you doing?
- We're tidying up our toys!
- Oh, looks very complicated.
Why doesn't just one
Tiddlypeep do it?
- It's too hard for one person.

(Groove and Tula sighing)
Oh that sounds
like a Hoobacious way
of getting the job done.
Oh, I say, do you
have any honey?
- [All] No!
- Oh, oh well, nevermind.
Thank you so much, I must dash.
Hoobeltoodledoo!
- Hoobletoodledoo!
(upbeat piano music)

- So it's a team thing.
- But what does it mean?
I mean, do some
bees hold the jar
while others stir the honey?
Oh, I don't get it.
- Somebody help me, please.
- Groove, you have just given
me a really Hoobiegroovy idea
about how to test out
this teamwork thing!
- Oh good.

(all laughing)
- Hoob-beecious,
that's very funny.
- Excuse me,
- Good joke, I like that.
- Excuse me.
(clearing throat)
So now we know how
peas and Tiddlypeeps
and Hoobs work as a team,
but what about bees?
How do they do it?
- [Phone] Roma,
Roma, Roma, Roma.
(zapping)
- Roma might know.
- Hoobledoop, Hoobs!
I'm here in the
country and the reason
I'm dressed as a bee is
because I'm working undercover!
(both laughing)
I want the bees to think
that I'm one of them.
Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz.
That was me talking bee!
(all laughing)
Tucked away under those
branches over there
is a thing called a beehive.
It's where the bees work and
live and make their honey!
How they actually do
this is top secret stuff.
Hence the disguise.
But, I can tell you this much.
Hundreds of bees fly out
from the hives every day
and buzz around,
collecting sweet nectar
from the peep flowers.
They then bring the
nectar back to the hive,
which is like a big factory.
They then store the nectar
in these honeycombs.
And then more bees turn
it into a yummy honey.
I've sent you a jar, Iver.
- Oh, Hoobiegallooby!
- Have you seen the
bees making it, Roma?
- No, there are no
windows in the hive.
And every time I get
close, they chase me away.
Well, I'm going to
try one more time.
Well now, little busy
bees, buzz, buzz.
Buzz, buzz.
No, no, they're not
going to speak to me.
Well, this is Roma Hoob,
reporting for Hoob News
and buzzing off, buzz, buzz,
buzz, buzz, Hoobletoodledoo!
(zapping)
(Groove laughing)
- So now we know
that honey is made from
something called nectar,
which comes from peep flowers!
(both laughing)
- Oh, little buzzy bee,
you are so Hoobacious.
- Hey, maybe that's
another reason
why that little bee
we saw didn't hang
around our Hoobie flowers.
Maybe they don't have
that sweet nectar.
- Groove, Tula!
It's arrived, the
honey jar from Roma!
Oh, I can't wait to try
some on a Hoobie Bun!
- Later, Iver, it's
time for HoobNews!
- Just try a little.
- Iver!

- Are you ready with
your news, Hoobs?
Ready to give me what you've got
on who makes honey and
how for the Hoobapedia?
- We're ready!
Hoobledoop whoop to all
you Hoobs out there.
Welcome to HoobNews, the news
show for Hoobs everywhere.
I'm Iver.
- I'm Tula.
- And I'm Groove.
- And today we're
asking the question.
- Who makes honey and how?
It all started when Iver
ran out of Hoobie Goop
and realized that he
couldn't get anymore.
- Can't we get anymore?
- Not unless we go
back to Hoobland
and ask Auntie HattieHoob
to make us some more.
- [Groove] So we asked
Hubba Hubba if peeps
had anything like it.
- [Tula] He told us that they
had something called honey,
but we had no idea
who made it or how.
So Iver went to see
the Tiddlypeeps,
and they told him
that bees make honey.
- Bees?
Those tiny little
buzzy things make this?
Did you get that, Groove?
Are you sure?
- Yes!
- Yes?
- [Iver] We couldn't
believe that something
so small could be so clever
and make something so big.
- Nothing about this bee says
"I can make honey" to me.
What about you?
- How could it even hold a jar,
it doesn't even have paws!
- [Groove] Then we heard
a story about some peas
who moved a stinky cheese.
And we realized the
story was saying
that, even if you're small,
if there are enough of you,
you can do anything.
- [Tula] Then Iver went to
see the Tiddlypeeps again
to see how they work
together as a team.
- [Groove] Meanwhile, I
was having a little bit
of trouble drawing a bee
on my big piece of paper.
- [Iver] So we tried
working in a team
and helped Groove
with his drawing.
♪ I really think
that this'll work ♪
♪ We're acting like a team. ♪
♪ Yes, doing this
job together means ♪
♪ it's turning out a dream ♪
♪ Now we should have
done this long before ♪
♪ I work so well with you ♪
♪ I'm over the moon,
we're so in tune ♪
♪ It's just the thing to do ♪
♪ Now pull that
sheet out smoothly ♪
♪ So it's nice and flat for me ♪
♪ Then I'll dash
off a masterpiece ♪
♪ A portrait of a bee ♪
(buzzing)
- [Tula] But we
still needed to know
how the bees made the honey.
- [Groove] Roma told us
that they gather nectar
from flowers, which they
take back to their hives
and make the lovely,
sweet, runny honey.
- So now we know who
makes honey and how.
- [All] It's bees!
- So it's thanks once again to
Iver, Tula, Groove, and Roma
for giving Hoobs
everywhere a little peep
into the world of peeps.
And, remember, have a
Hoobledoobledoopa day
and hoobletoodledoo!
- [All] Hoobletoodledoo!
(upbeat rock music)
- (sighing) Pass
me a Hoobie Bun!
It's breakfast time!
