I'm Hubba-Hubba talking

to you from Hoobland

and I'm about to send

four of my favorite

Hoobs down to earth

to find out all

about you for my

great Hoobapedia.

Here they come.

[Water Running]

- Now then, let's see how

our little Hoobynut

is doing today.

Yeah, oh, it's grown enormous.

Now then, is it ripe?

Huh, it looks ripe.

Hahahaha, [Sniff, Sniff, Sniff]

Oh, it smells

ripe. Hahaha. [Pop]

Hahaha, it sounds ripe. [Pop]

Ah, it is ripe! Trula,

Iver, our Hoobynut is ripe.

- [Groove] Tula, Iver,

ah, there you are Tula,

look at this, Iver, look at this

it's a Hooby Groovy,

ripe Hoobynut.

Fan-taby-hooby.

- Let's cr*ck it

and share it out

- Where's the Hoobynut cr*cker?

- Oh, um, I'm not sure Groove.

- I'll go and look

in the other room.

- Yeah, and um,

eh, it's not here.

Oh, um, hmmm, oh,

it's not here either.

- Nope, it's not in there.

- Uh, maybe it's in

my cutter cupboard.

[Walking]

- Groove has looked after

that Hoobynut tree really well,

hasn't he Iver?

- He has and I think that is the

most Hoobatious

Hoobynut Groove has

ever grown.

- He'll be really

upset if we can't cr*ck it.

- I know. I have a

horrible feeling, Tula.

We didn't bring the

Hoobynut cr*cker

from Hoobland.

[Banjo Music]

- [Groove] Yup, not in

there, not in there,

not under there. Oh

Hooby bother, you

can't cr*ck a Hoobynut

without a Hoobynut

cr*cker. Iver, Tula, oh..

[Banjo Music]

oh, what are we

going to do? I can't

find the Hoobynut

cr*cker anywhere.

- Um, Groove, I have

a horrible feeling

we didn't bring it

with us from Hoobland.

- What!! We didn't bring

the Hoobynut cr*cker with

us from Hoobland!!!

- Um, no

- No

- Oh! Are you sure?

- Yes

- Yes

Ah, but it's the only

thing that will cr*ck a

Hoobynut into

three equal pieces.

So we can share it.

That's what Hoobynut

crackers are for,

Iver. To cr*ck the nut

into three pieces that

are all the same size.

- Uh, never mind,

we'll just have to use

the Hooby sandwich

hammer instead.

- Okay, you can try,

but I'm not sure

it's going to cr*ck

that nut the we're used

to it cracking. Oh!

[Banjo Music]

[Boing]

- Ah, it cracked

it! It cracked it!

- Yes, it cracked

it, not the way

we usually cr*ck

it. Look, we got one

big piece and one,

two smaller pieces.

Somebody has to get

the biggest piece,

but who?

♪who? Who? Who? Whooo? ♪

♪ Who? ♪

- I don't know

who. If I take it,

it's not fair on you and Tula.

- And if I take

it, it's not fair

on Tula and you.

- So what is the fairest way to

share out the

pieces of Hoobynut?

- [Hubba-Hubba]

What's the fairest way

to share out the

pieces of Hoobynut?

That's a fantabyhooby

question for today's

Hoob News. Something

Hoobs everywhere

will want to know.

- Certainly something

this Hoob here wants

to know.

[Stomach Growling]

- What was that?

- Huh? Ah, that's my

tummy rumbling, Tula.

I'm starving.

- [Hubba-Hubba]

Right, then Groove

I'll email Roma to

ask her to find out

what she can about

sharing. Oh, and

let's see if there's anything on

Hoobnet which might

lead you to an

answer.

- [Hubba-Hubba] Now

those people are

going to share their

food. They're going

to divide up all those

little things there.

Oh look, the tiddlypeep

sharing it's lolly.

Ahhh. Now the mother's

dividing up the

food for her chicks.

And that peeps

dividing up that

great big peep cake.

Oh, look, the mother

is sharing her food

with her cubs. Oh, and those two

are sharing a chocolate.

Oh look, these

two peeps are sharing

some tea. And these

two are dividing

up the candy floss.

- We just saw things

being divided up.

And we've already divided up the

Hoobynut.

- Yeah, that's the

problem. How do we

share it fairly when one

of the pieces is bigger?

[Stomach Growling]

- Groove, you are hungry!

- Heh, it wasn't me.

- It was me.

[Stomach Growling]

that was me again.

- Haha, I think

you're even hungrier

than I am, Iver.

- That's it! As Iver

is the hungerist Hoob

he should have the big bit.

- That sounds fair

enough to me, Tula.

Good idea.

- Oh.

- There you go, Iver.

- Oh well, thank you everybody.

Oh, I can't. You're

both hungry too.

Whose to say I'm the hungerist?

There must be another

way we can do this!

- We need an idea.

- Maybe Hubba-hubbas had one.

- I have! I have! It

begins with tiddly

and ends in peeps.

- That's it!! Let's

ask the tiddlypeeps.

[Stomach Growling]

groove, it sounds like thunder.

- Yeah, I better not go to the

tiddlypeeps my

tummy rumbles might

frighten them.

- Hahahaha, I'll go.

- And I'll drive. Let's get

those motorettes singing.

- Seat belt?

- Seat belt, haha

- We're off to see

the tiddlypeeps.

[Pop]

- Hoobledoop, tiddlypeep.

- Hoobledoop, Iver

- Oh, this looks hoobalicious

- I'm about to have

tea with my Dad

- Wella, I'd better

be quick then

um, you see the

thing is, we don't

know how to share

our hoobynuts out

fairly. Wait a minute!

One of these pieces of

cake is much bigger than

the other! Why's that?

- Because that

piece is for my Dad.

- Why does your Dad

have a bigger piece?

- Because he's bigger

than me, he needs more

food.

- Did you hear that Tula?

- Yeah

- The bigger you are,

the more food you need.

- Ahhh!

- Ahhh!

- Thank you ever so

much, hooble toodle doo.

- Hooble toodle dooo

[Happy Music]

- Hoobygalooby,

so there is a fair

way to share out this hoobynut.

- Yeah, the biggest

hoob gets the

biggest piece.

- So who's biggest?

- Let's measure.

[Music]

- Do you think I'm the biggest?

- Um, I can't tell.

- Me neither.

- Let's ask Hubba-hubba.

[Hubba-Hubba]

- What can I do for you?

- Can you tell us

which one of us

is biggest?

- Yeah, we've decided

that the biggest

Hoob gets the big

piece of hoobynut, ha.

- Good idea! Right!

Stand together

so I can see you all.

[Shuffling Feet]

- Hmmm, well, you

all look as though

you're the same size to me.

- Are you sure, Hubba-Hubba?

- Well, Iver has

the biggest mouth,

Groove has the

biggest twizzle tuft,

and Tula has the biggest nose.

But you all look

about the same size.

- Ohhhhhhhh

- Ohhhhhhh

- We must be able

to find a way of

sharing these three

pieces fairly.

But how?

♪ How? How? How?

How? How? How? ♪

♪ How? How? How? How?

How? How? How? How? ♪

- Here's how! A

tiddlypeep just sent me

this story, and

do you know what?

It's about sharing.

[Electronic Noises]

- [Little Girl]

Under a big oak tree

there slept three elves.

The biggest elf stretched,

yawned, and woke up. He

remembered something,

the blue, tootooberry

pie hidden under

his bed. He crept out

of bed and grabbed

the pie. But being a

clumsy elf, he tripped

and with a mighty crash,

woke the other two.

In a flash they

lept across the room

and seized hold of the pie dish.

- It's mine! Let go!

- I want it!

[Bouncing Noises]

- [Little Girl] The wise old owl

in the oak tree was

trying to sleep.

[Wings Flapping]

- [Little Girl] He flew

down and landed next

to them.

- If you want to

share the pie fairly

then here's how you

do it. The oldest elf

gets the biggest

piece. Then next oldest

gets the middle

sized piece. And the

youngest gets the

smallest piece. Agreed?

- I'm the oldest!

- No, I am!

- No, it's me!

- Stop! I know when

each of you was born.

You were the last

to be born, you are

definitely the youngest.

- [Little Girl] He

handed him the smallest

piece of pie.

- [Owl] And you arrived

the day before. You are

next youngest.

- [Little Girl] He handed

him the middle sized piece.

- [Owl] And you

were the very first.

Your mother and

father were so proud.

- [Little Girl] And he

handed him the biggest

piece.

[Chewing]

- Soon they were all

so full, that they fell

asleep again. The

owl flew back onto

his branch.

- Now that they stopped

quarreling, I can

get some sleep.

- [Little Girl] He said.

[Snoring]

- Oh no!

[Snoring]

[Laughter]

they're snoring.

- Like you Iver, you snore.

- I do not!

- You do snore.

[Laughter]

- That's it! All

we have to do is

find out who's the oldest

and then the oldest

Hoob gets the big piece, ha.

- Ah, but some,

there's just one little

problem with that idea.

- Oh, we were all

born on the same day.

- The really difficult

question for Hoobs to

answer. It's going to

take a lot of thought.

[Roma, Roma, Roma]

- Ha, here come Roma

- Hoobledoops

- Hoobledoop, Roma

- Now Hoobs, I've come here

to an atheletic stadium

there's a big race today

and guess who'll be

giving away the prizes?

- Who Roma? Who?

- Me, Tula! That's who.

[Laughter]

And just look at

all these beautiful

trophies.

- [Groove] Yeah!

- I spend all morning

giving them a good old rub.

- Oh! Why have you

been doing that Roma?

- To make them shiny, Groove.

- Ah!!

- This one is for

the runner who comes

third.

- [Groove] Um

- Isn't it sweet?

- Yeah.

- And this one's for the runner

who comes second.

There now it looks

lovely. And the biggest

trophy, this one

is for the winner.

- When is the race

being run Roma?

- Well, Iver, it should

have started by now.

- Huh, oh. Thank

goodness you reminded me,

they're nearly at

the finish line now.

I'd better get these

trophies over there

as fast as I can.

- [Groove] Yeah!

- This is Roma Hoob,

about to be late

for an awards ceremony.

Hoobatoodledoo.

- Whoa! [Crashing]

- Oh! Hoobygalooby,

trophies are great prizes.

- Yeah

- Sure

- So is a big piece of Hoobynut.

This could be our prize

- Yeah, we could play

a game, and the winner

gets the big piece.

- Yes

- Yes

- Hoobledoops Hoobs.

What's going on?

- Oh, you're just in

time Hubba-Hubba. We're

just about to play a

game and the winner

gets the big piece of Hoobynut.

- Good idea. That

sounds fair. And I

know just the game

you could play.

- Hoobygalooby! What is it?

- You all stand on one

leg and touch your nose.

- Oh! [Laugher]

- Oh! I, I , I

- There we are

- Hahahahah. Yes?

- The Hoob who stays

standing the longest,

is the winner.

- This is a hoobacious game.

- Oh dear. Oh

dear. I'm wobbling.

- Yeah, me too.

- I'm sorry I

- No, no , no

- I'm falling.

[Crashing]

[Laughter]

- Oh!

- Ugh!

- Oh!

- We all fell down

at the same time.

- So the winner is....everyone.

- Well done Hoobs!

- But that means no

one gets the big piece.

- Oh no!

- Don't give up Hoobs!

You're trying really hard

to be fair and that's

very Hooby of you.

But, there's got to

be an answer to the

question. Why don't

you go and see the

tiddlypeeps one more time?

- Oh! Good idea,

Hubba-Hubba. I'll go.

- And this time I'll drive.

- Oh, look, Tula, Groove,

a really hoobalicious

looking cake.

- Ahhhhh

- And there's one

very big piece.

Oh, hoobledoop tiddlypeeps.

- Hoobledoop Iver

- This cake you've

got looks hoobaceous.

- We deserve it for

all the cleaning up

we've done.

- Cleaning up?

- Yes, we've just had

a party, so now we're

cleaning up all the mess.

- I must say, it all

looks very tidy, yes.

So anyway, that's a

big slice. Is um, is it

going to be eaten by

anyone in particular?

- Yep, me!

- Oh, but it's much

bigger than anyone else's.

Um, is that really fair?

- Yes, she did the

most cleaning up.

- And we agreed,

whoever done the most

tidying up got the

biggest piece of cake.

- It's fair, Iver.

- Would you like

some cake then, Iver?

- Yes, please.

Oh, thank you so much.

- Iver!

- Oh!

- Oh, no. Oh no, on second

thought I better not.

I want to share it

with Tula and Groove.

- Yes

- Yes

- Actually, it was time

I was getting back.

Hoobletoodledo.

- Hoobletoodledo

- So if the tiddlypeeps gave

the biggest piece of cake

to the one who did the most

work, who should get this?

- I say we give the big

piece of Hoobynut to

the Hoob who has worked

the hardest looking after

the Hoobynut tree.

- So do I. And that's.....you.

- Hmmm? Me?

- Of course. Who

watered it? You!

Who hummed to it?

You! Who wiped it's

leaves everyday? You!

- Go on Groove, you deserve it.

- Oh. Are you sure?

Well, that's reall

hoobygroovy of you both.

- Hoobygalooby, it's

time for Hoob news.

- I better save this till later.

- Come on.

[Hubba-Hubba]

- are you ready to give me what

you've got on sharing

for my great Hoobapeadia?

- Ready Hubba-Hubba.

- Then take it away.

[Drumbeats]

- Hoopledoopwoop to all

you Hoobs out there.

Welcome to Hoob news.

The news show for Hoobs

everywhere. I'm Iver.

- I'm Tula.

- And I'm Groove.

- And today we've been

asking the question

- What is the fariest

way to share out the

pieces of Hoobynut?

- It all started when I

found out our Hoobynut

was ripe.

- We wanted to share

as usual but we didn't

have our Hoobynut cr*cker.

- So we had to whack it

with our Hoobysandwich

hammer instead.

- And it didn't really

work. Instead of getting

three equal pieces, we

got two the same size,

and one that was bigger.

- Hubba-Hubba downloaded

pictures from Hoobnet.

But they only showed

us different ways of

dividing things. We

needed a way to figure

who should get the big piece.

- We went to see some

tiddlypeeps who gave us

the idea that the big

piece could go to the

biggest Hoob.

- But it turns out,

we're all the same size.

- Then we heard a story

about some elves who gave

the biggest piece of

blue tootleberry pie

to the oldest elf.

- But we're all the same age.

- We didn't know what to do.

- Then Roma told us

about how sometimes

peeps play games and give

a prize to the winner.

- So we thought, we'd

play a game and give the

big piece of Hoobynut

to the winner.

- But that didn't work

because we all won.

- Then we went back to

the tiddlypeeps and they

gave us a hoobygroovy idea.

- The big piece of

Hoobynut could go to the

Hoob who had done the most work.

- And we decided that

that Hoob was Groove.

- So the answer to the

question, what is the

fairest way to share

out the pieces of

Hoobynut? Was to give

the big piece to Groove.

Because he done the most work.

- 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, wherever

you are have a nice

day and hoobletoodledo.

- Hoobletoodledo

- Aw, thanks Tula,

thanks Iver, but

I really can't take

the big piece all for

myself. We're all Hoobs

here, and Hoobs always

share things equally. So,

[Hammering]

- Now we'll each

get the same number

of tiny pieces.

- Hoobygalooby!!

- There we go. One for Tula.

- Yes, yes.

- One for you Iver.

- Oh, thank goodness.
