28x06 - You and I Together

[bunniefuu]

[THEME SONG]

LYRICS: It's a beautiful
day in this neighborhood,

a beautiful day for a neighbor.

Would you be mine?

Could you be mine?

It's a neighborly day
in this beauty-wood,

a neighborly day for a beauty.

Would you be mine?

Could you be mine?

I have always wanted to have
a neighbor just like you.

I've always wanted to live
in the neighborhood with you.

-So let's make the most
of this beautiful day.

Since we're together, we might
as well say, would you be mine?

Could you be mine?

Won't you be my neighbor?

Won't you please,
won't you please?

Please, won't you
be my neighbor?

Did you see the stuffed
toy gorilla that I brought?

Just one second, and
I'll show him to you.

There.

There you are.

Do you know anybody who has a
stuffed toy gorilla like this?

How does that
person play with it?

Does it knock down things
or play hide and seek?

Well, I'm going to do
something different with it.

I have a blanket
right over here.

And I'm going to put the
gorilla to bed right here

and sing to it.

LYRICS: I'm taking care of
you, taking good care of you.

For once, I was
very little, too.

Now I take care of you.

-Let's pretend that this
toy gorilla's asleep.

And we have some live pets here.

Some we give food to each day.

And they like to swim.

What pets are they?

Fish.

[PIANO] Here's some
food for you, fish.

[CHUCKLES]

Every time I see
this toy gorilla

I like to remember a visit
I had with a real gorilla.

Her name is Koko.

And here is a picture of Koko.

There she is.

And here's a picture of
Koko with her friend, Penny.

Penny has been with
Koko since Koko

was one-year-old,
a little gorilla.

Penny knew that I
wanted to come to visit.

So she asked Koko
if it was all right.

And Koko told her
that I could come.

Koko can tell people
things because she

knows sign language.

And she uses her
hands a lot for that.

In fact, I remember how she held
my hand when we were together.

PENNY: What?

How about

-Your feet?

-Your feet.

-Your feet.

PENNY: Nails.

MR. ROGERS: Nails.

PENNY: That's your toenails.

What other body parts
do you share, hm?

Your ears.

-And we both have ears.

-Ears.

-And we both have noses and
eyes and mouths and teeth.

-And teeth.

-And teeth.

-And-- yes?

What else?

-Here's your good friend.

-[HIGH TONE] Hi.

No, you're not a baby.

You're a big girl.

That's very good.

[INAUDIBLE] She's been
grooming yourself.

Do I need some grooming, too?

-And what does this mean?

-It's just a greeting to see
what you've maybe been eating

or what you sound like.

-Oh, it's a greeting?

-Yeah.

Who are you?

Like "who."

-Isn't that lovely?

-It's like "who."

Hoo.

-Hoo.

[GORILLA GRUNTS IN GREETING]

-Right.

That's a happy sound.

-Is it?

-That's a purr.
[GRUNTS] Like that?

Can you teach me how to do that?

[GRUNTS] Like that?

[GRUNTS] [GRUNTS] Is that
a nice way to welcome

someone and say
that you're happy?

'Course, I could be
there only because Penny

and Koko invited me to come.

'Can't just go
there by yourself.

I remember that Koko found
my handkerchief in my pocket.

I thought she might want
to play peek-a-boo with it.

But she had other
ideas at first.

-Another stick?

I don't think he has any
of that in his pocket.

Oh, [WHISPERING] you
know what you found.

-She found my handkerchief.

Where's Koko?

Do you ever play peek-a-boo?

[SNIFFING AND EXHALING] Oh,
she knows what that's for.

PENNY: Oh, Koko , you do know!

It's for sneezing.

-For sneezing.

PENNY: Uh-huh.

-I like the way you
play with my fingers.

-She's sort of grooming.

Are you grooming?

-Like this, mhm.

-Oh, peek-a-boo!

She did peek-a-boo.

-Where's Mr. Rogers?

Peek-a-boo.

-There! [CHUCKLES]

-Where am I?

Peek-a-boo.

[LAUGHING]

-She remembered.

-Do you remember the
peek-a-boo for it?

-Yes, she did.

-Oh, do you want
to show Mr. Rogers

your-- oh, that's peek-a-boo.

OK, we're going to do
another peek-a-boo?

-Where's Koko?

-[LAUGHING] Where's Koko?

[LAUGHING] Where is she?

Where is she?

-Peek-a-boo.

-Oh, there!

Well, hi.

That's good.

-You're a really good player.

-And I bet you could show him
about your favorite color.

It's red.

She's teaching you a sign.

-Is that how you say "red"?

This way?

-Did he do it right?

Sit down.

She's asking you to-- we
are sitting down, sweetie.

-She had her own
ideas for playing.

And she certainly knew
her favorite color.

Red.

She got so interested
in me that she wanted

to see what was under
my shoes and socks.

I remember how well she
used those hands of hers,

even to tickle.

PENNY: You're doing a good job.

MR. ROGERS: I should say.

You're doing a great job.

PENNY: You're really
good at that, Koko.

You know just how
to take shoes off.

Yeah.

Yes, that's it!

And socks?

Wow!

Yeah, that's good!

Now she can tickle your foot.

-Yes.

[CHUCKLING] She's
doing it. [LAUGHING]

-It tickles.

Could you put your
foot beside my foot?

PENNY: She's got
another foot to work on.

-Oh, another one.

PENNY: We've got to do
the other one first.

-You've got it, good.

You work from the heel.

That's right, very good.

-It's hard to get it
over the heel, isn't it?

There.

[TAPPING ON WATCH]

-It's time--

-Time?

-What time?

Time to-- tickle?

What?

-What?

-Look.

-When you like someone, you
want to know all you can

about that someone,
especially if he

has things you're
not used to seeing.

Koko got interested in
these cufflinks of mine.

Cufflinks are like
fancy buttons.

You can see what mine look like.

I like to remember what Koko
said about my cufflinks.

-You seem to want to
do pictures today.

-How do you say, "love"
for sign language?

How do you say "love"?

-Can you show him
how to say "love"?

How do you say "love"?

What?

That.

Flower.

She's asking you
about your cufflink.

Is that a flower?

-That's a sun.

My grandfather gave me those--

-That's a sun.

It looks like a flower, though.

-It does look like a flower.

-Can we talk a little
bit about love?

Frown?

Oh, honey.

What?

Love?

Love, you.

-Oh is that-- Oh.

-She said, love
you visit, love--

-Oh.

-Well that was very nice.

-Thank you, Koko.

-She loves her visitor.

-Well, I love visiting with you.

That's Koko's way of
saying "love you."

She really has feelings
for people and things.

I remember near the end of
our visit I had on my sweater

and was ready to leave Koko.

And we just sat and
looked at each other.

There's so much to think
about, isn't there?

You're such a wonderful hostess.

Could you show me your teeth?

Could I see your teeth again?

[CHUCKLES] Oh, thank you.

Thank you very much,
Koko, for this visit.

I hope that we'll meet again.

PENNY: Foot. [GIGGLES]

-We will.

OK.

PENNY: Sit.

-I hope we have another
visit soon again.

Because we're friends now.

Isn't it wonderful that there
are people like Penny who spend

their lives understanding
wonderful creatures like Koko?

I certainly learned
some very important

things from visiting with them.

As you can see, gorillas
are very special beings.

Yeah.

Let's have some make-believe.

[TROLLEY BELL] Let's
pretend something

about a make-believe
gorilla coming

to visit the neighbors
in make-believe.

Ready, Trolley? [BELL]
Neighborhood of Make-believe.

[TROLLEY BELL]

-Hi, Trolley!

[BELL] Wanna play?

[BELL] OK.

How about peek-a-boo?

[BELL] Good.

I'll go first.

[BELL] Peek-a-boo!

[CHUCKLES] OK, now
it's your turn.

[BELL] OK, they're covered.

One, two, three,
four, five, six,

seven, eight, nine,


Ready or not, here I come!

Trolley?

Trolley?

Where are you, Trolley?

[BELL] Oh, there you are!

And there you are, Lady Aberlin.

-Hi, Tuesday.

[BELL] Bye, Trolley.

What have you been playing?

-Peek-a-boo and hide-and-seek.

Want to try?

-Sure.

You go first.

-OK.

Five, 10, 15, 20, 25,


Anyone around my
castle is "I-T," it!

[PIANO]

[ORGAN]

[SNIFFING]

-Uh-- I'll come inside, Tuesday.

[PIANO]

[GROANING]

[MUSIC]

[KNOCKING]

-I wonder who's here, heh.

Uh-oh.

[PIANO]

[BELL RINGING] [KNOCKING]

-Meow, meow, here, meow.

Meow!

-Uh-oh.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[KNOCKING]

-I wonder who's here.

Ohhh.

[PIANO]

[SNIFFLING]

-Hello.

Oh, I didn't mean to scare you.

Are you a gorilla?

[ORGAN]

Are you sad?

[SNIFFLING]

Uh, would you ever hurt anybody?

[EXCITED] Oh, did
you come to play?

And nobody will play with you?

[LOUD SIREN]

-OK.

All right!

Attention all neighbors!

Attention, attention!

There's a huge beast loose
in this neighborhood.

Beware of the gorilla.

Attention, attention,
all neighbors.

-Lady Elaine.

-Go protect yourself, toots'.

-The gorilla won't hurt you.

-I don't think you know
what you're talking about.

-But I do.

I've met the gorilla.

-And you're still alive?

-He's tame.

-How do you know?

-Well, he was crying.

-I think it's going to
rip up this neighborhood.

-Why do you think that?

-Because that's what
they do in the movies.

-Well, this isn't the movies.

And I'm going to introduce
you to a tame gorilla.

-You're sure?

-I'm sure.

-Oh.

Where has the gorilla gone?

The gorilla is gone.

-See, I told you.

Attention, attention,
all neighbors.

Attention, emergency.

Gorilla loose in
this neighborhood.

Attention all neighbors.

-Oh, Lady Elaine,
what have you started?

-Just doing my job, toots'.

This is Chief
Warrant Officer W-4.

Keep an eye out.

Report any citings
to this headquarters.

-See ya later.

-Be well.

Attention.

Attention.

Attention, everyone.

[TROLLEY BELL]

-Oh, I know, Trolley.

But I think it's a tame gorilla.

[BELL] Yes, I hope so,
too. [BELL] I'll try.

[BELL]

-Lady Elaine was
afraid of the gorilla.

Because the only gorilla
she had ever seen

were scary ones in the movies.

But Lady Aberlin was
getting to know the gorilla.

And she found it tame.

It was really sad because no
one wanted to play with it.

Sort of went like
that, you know?

Did you ever feel that way?

What did you do
about it? [KNOCKING]

Oh, there's somebody
at the door.

Let's see who that is.

Oh, it's Mr. McFeely.

Hi, Mr. McFeely.

-Speedy delivery.

-Good day to you.

-My grandchildren play with
plastic balls like this.

-Oh, is that great.

-So I thought you'd like
to show your neighbors

how people make balls like that.

And here's the tape.

-Oh, would you watch it with us?

-I will.

You take the tape.

And I'll take the ball.

-Thank you.

-And I'll explain it to you.

-You'll be passing by a gorilla.

-Oh, good day, gorilla.

Good day to you.

-"How People Make Play Balls."

Oh, thanks.

I'd like to see this.

MR. McFEELY: When people
make these play balls,

they start with liquid plastic.

That's what's in this barrel.

MR. ROGERS: Ah.

MR. McFEELY: These men hook
the barrel up to a hose.

And the plastic gets pumped
into the molding machine.

MR. ROGERS: Molding machine?

MR. McFEELY: You see
those round things

that look like cereal bowls?

MR. ROGERS: Mhm.

MR. McFEELY: Those
are the molds.

And he's filling each
one with white plastic.

MR. ROGERS: Oh.

MR. McFEELY: Now,
these balls are

going to be white with
blue and green swirls

in them, like the one
I just brought to you.

MR. ROGERS: Mhm.

MR. McFEELY: So now he adds
the blue and the green plastic

to the white plastic
that's already in the mold.

MR. ROGERS: Well, he knows just
how much of each color to add,

doesn't he?

MR. McFEELY: Yes, he does.

MR. ROGERS: What's
happening now?

MR. McFEELY: That's the
top part of the mold.

MR. ROGERS: Oh.

MR. McFEELY: He uses this tool
to tighten those bolts that

will hold the top and the
bottom of the mold together.

MR. ROGERS: What's he
have there in his ears?

MR. McFEELY: Ear plugs.

Uh, that tool makes
a lot of noise.

MR. ROGERS: Oh.

Where is it going?

MR. McFEELY: Off into this
oven where it will be heated.

MR. ROGERS: Oh, look at that.

So it's in the oven now?

MR. McFEELY: It's
in the oven now.

And now it's being
cooled in this place.

MR. ROGERS: Mm,
that's fun to watch.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

It kind of makes me think of a
Ferris wheel at the carnival.

MR. McFEELY: Me, too.

Now that the balls have
been heated and cooled,

they're ready to
come out of the mold.

MR. ROGERS: Looks
like he's using

that same tool to
loosen the bolts.

MR. McFEELY: Well, he is.

He unscrews the bolts.

And then he uses this bar to
loosen the top of the mold.

MR. ROGERS: Oh.

And off it comes.

MR. McFEELY: That's right.

MR. ROGERS: So the balls--

MR. McFEELY: Mhm.

MR. ROGERS: Well, those
balls look much smaller

than the one you
brought with you.

MR. McFEELY: Well, you're right.

They are.

These balls are
not quite finished.

There's one more
thing to be done.

They travel down a chute.

And this woman fills them up
with air and makes them bigger.

MR. ROGERS: Oh.

MR. McFEELY: Next, she puts
a plug in that tiny hole

so the air will stay
inside the ball.

She does it again.

MR. ROGERS: She
works so quickly.

MR. McFEELY: Yes, she does.

And that's how people
make play balls.

-That's very interesting.

Thank you, Mr. McFeely.

-Well, you're welcome.

My grandchildren are
really good at playing.

-I bet they are.

Now you've got a ball for them.

-Well, I'm going to take
it right back to them.

I'll see you around
the neighborhood

-My best.

Goodbye.

-Goodbye.

-Time to go, gorilla.

Yep, time to go.

Now, we'll think more
about gorillas and people

and other interesting
things next time.

LYRICS: It's such a good
feeling to know you're alive.

It's such a happy feeling
you're growing inside.

And when you wake
up ready to say,

I think I'll make
a snappy new day.

It's such a good feeling,
a very good feeling,

the feeling you know that I'll
be back when the day is new.

And I'll have more
ideas for you.

And you'll have things
you'll want to talk about.

I will, too.

-We always have things
to talk about, don't we?

Yeah.

And today, we talked
a lot about-- maybe

I'll call this one "Koko."

Peek-a-boo.

I'll be back next time.

Goodbye.
