[THEME MUSIC]

-[SINGING] 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 beautywood,

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 a 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.

[SPEAKING] Hi, neighbor.

Did you ever see me zip
down my sweater when I said,

[SINGING] beautiful day?

[SPEAKING] You know, like this?

I get it up to here, and I
go [SINGING] beautiful day.

[SPEAKING] Well, that's
so that my microphone can

be free so you can hear me talk.

Now, if you zip up a sweater
to go outside when it's cool,

you don't need to go
like that, because you're

probably not wearing
a microphone.

Well, I want to read this book
to you later on, but right now,

I'd like to do something
in the kitchen.

Come along.

Let's be together today
and draw a rainbow.

Isn't that a strange rainbow?

What do you think it needs?

More colors, right?

How about some of
this color in it?

And how about some
of this color?

And how about some
of this color?

Where can I put that?

How about right in there?

Oh, you can put them
anywhere you want.

Now, doesn't that look
a lot more beautiful,

when it has more colors?

In fact, the more colors
together, the better.

That makes me think
of different toys.

I know a place in
this neighborhood that

has toys of many
shapes and colors.

It's a place for children,
many different children,

who stop in each day to play.

Sometimes, I just like to sit
and think about that place

because I like it and
the players so much.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Have you ever gone to a
place like that to play?

Do you like playing
with friends?

I know I like thinking
about things with you,

lots of things.

I think it's time
to feed the fish.

There you are, fish.

Each one of these
fish is somehow

different from all the others.

Isn't it amazing that
each fish is unique?

That means it's the only
one in the whole world

exactly like it.

Each one of you is unique.

And that's the way it
is with people, too.

Each one of us is
unique, even if we

look somewhat the
same on the outside.

Each one of us is
different on the inside.

Let's have some make-believe.

I think I'll use the model.

No, I think I'll
use something else.

Make our own model.

Yeah.

Here's my recycling bin.

I'll use stuff in
there, and I can

use this plant for the tree.

How about that for
the Museum Go-Round?

OK?

Lady Elaine's Museum
Go-Round, the tree.

What could that be?

Oh, that could be the castle.

That could be Daniel's clock.

There's some crumpled paper.

I guess that could
be the Museum--

no, not the Museum Go-Round.

That would be the
platypus mound.

That'd be good for the factory.

There.

Oh, there's something.

Hey, that could be the trolley.

Now we're ready.

There's been a gorilla in the
Neighborhood of Make-Believe,

and the ones who have gotten
to know him-- his name

is Kevin Wendell-- they've
discovered that he is quite

tame, but Lady Elaine
Fairchilde still

don't believe that
he's anything but wild.

She says that all gorillas
are like the fierce ones

in the movies.

Well, let's think more
about Kevin Wendell Gorilla,

and also, let's think
about helping Mayor Maggie

find Neighbor Aber
from Westwood.

All that in the Neighborhood
of Make-Believe.

Ready, Trolley?

Into the Neighborhood
of Make-Believe.

-[DINGING]

-Well, hello, Trolley.

Now, you're sure that the
gorilla is safe to play with?

-I'm very sure, Queen Sarah.

The gorilla is Bill Bill safe.

-He hasn't hurt anybody?

-Oh, on the contrary.

He helps everybody!

He even came to our
home for dinner.

-You're a brave one, Dr. Bill.

-Well, Kevin Wendell's
a neighborly gorilla.

You can mark my words.

-I want to believe you.

Thank you, Dr. Bill.

-I'm always glad to visit
with you, Queen Sarah.

Call me if you need me.

-We always do.

Farewell, good doctor.

-Farewell, farewell.

-Oh, it seems there's always
something to think about.

Always.

-Oh, Aunt Sarah, I'm
so glad you're here!

-Oh, thank you.

How are you, Lady Aberlin?

Are you all right?

-Yes, I'm fine.

I was just wondering if
you'd heard the news.

-About the gorilla?

-Yes, isn't it revealing?

-You mean that he
would be so friendly?

-Yes, and that he may not
be a real gorilla after all.

-Not a real gorilla?

Well, what is he?

-Nobody's quite sure.

-Oh, please let me
know when you find out.

-I will.

Isn't this a wonderful
neighborhood?

-Oh, I've always thought so.

I must tell Friday the latest.

-Farewell, Aunt Sarah.

-You, too, my dear.

Farewell.

-I think I'll go visit Daniel
Tiger over at the clock.

Looks as though Daniel
already has a visitor.

-You have such
kind-looking eyes.

-So do you.

-I didn't know you could talk.

-Oh, I can when
people are kind to me.

-Are they sometimes mean to you?

-When they don't know me.

-You're a really
special gorilla.

-Well, you're a
really special tiger.

-Want to be friends?

-Sure.

Want to sing about it?

-Sure.

-[SINGING] You are my friend.

You are special.

You are my friend.

You're special to me.

-[SINGING] You are the only one
like you, like you my friend.

I like you.

-[SINGING] In the
daytime, in the nighttime,

any time that you
feel is the right time

for a friendship
with me, you see--

-[SINGING] F-R-I-E-N-D, special.

-[SINGING] You are my friend.

You're special to me.

ALL: [SINGING] There's only
one in this wonderful world--

you are special.

-Know what?

-What?

-You sound just like
another friend of mine.

-Oh, really, who's--
I mean, oh, really?

Who's that?

-He's a friend from Westwood.

Have you ever been to Westwood?

-Yes.

-Do you know someone there
by the name of Neighbor Aber?

-Oh, yes.

Quite well.

-Oh.

I like him, too.

-Oh, and I'm glad you
do, because that's

who I really am underneath.

-What do you mean?

Neighbor Aber!

-Yes, Daniel.

I've been pretending
to be a gorilla.

-Wow!

-Neighbor Aber!

-Hello, Lady Aberlin.

-You're Kevin Wendell Gorilla?

-I've been wearing
this gorilla costume.

LADY ABERLIN AND DANIEL: Why?

-Because I wanted to see
how people would treat

me if I didn't look like myself.

-Wait till we show
you till Lady Elaine.

-She's one person
who just wouldn't

believe I was friendly.

-Even though you
always acted friendly.

-That's right.

-How did you believe, Daniel?

-Oh, I guess his heart
just spoke to my heart.

-That's how I felt.

And then when I
heard you singing--

-I guess I should get
back to work in Westwood.

I took a few days' vacation.

-Before you go, would
you put on the costume

again and show who you
are inside to Lady Elaine?

-Sure, but I really don't
like that loud alarm of hers.

It hurts my ears
and my feelings.

-I understand.

Well, I'll go over and tell
her not to sound the alarm,

and then I'll wait for you, OK?

-Oh, OK.

-See you later, Daniel.

-All right.

-Ugga-mugga.

-Ugga-mugga, Lady A.

-I am so grateful
for you, Daniel.

You seem to be able
to love no matter

what somebody looks like.

-I'm glad to be your friend
and Kevin Wendell's friend.

-I wonder what Lady
Elaine is saying now.

-You say he's at Daniel's clock?

-That's right.

-Well, why don't you want
me to sound the alarm?

-Because he doesn't
like the alarm.

-Too bad!

If you're a loose gorilla,
you're gonna hear alarms!

-Lady Elaine, you haven't gotten
to know Kevin Wendell Gorilla.

-I don't care to play
around with wild things.

-But you never even found out
whether he was wild or tame.

Oh, here he comes now.

-No alarm?

-Give him a chance.

-Oh, boy.

Here we go.

-Kevin Wendell
Gorilla, I'd like you

to meet Lady Elaine Fairchilde.

-Hi there, gorilla.

-His name is Kevin Wendell.

-How do you know that?

He doesn't say anything.

-Uh, would you mind saying
something to Lady Elaine?

She's not going to hurt you.

-Thank you.

-For what?

-For not sounding the alarm.

-You really don't
like it, do you?

-It hurts my ears.

-And it hurt his feelings.

-Gorillas have feelings?

-Even real gorillas
have feelings.

-What do you mean by
that-- even real gorillas?

-Should I?

-Yes, please.

-Neighbor Aber!

-Inside of Kevin Wendell.

-That's not fair.

-Not fair?

-If I had known you were
inside that gorilla,

I would have welcomed you!

-That's what I thought.

-But Lady Elaine,
everybody inside

wants to be welcomed
and included and loved.

-No matter what we look
like on the outside.

-So there you are, Mr. Aber!

-Just on my way back to work.

-I just heard about
your research.

Looks like we have a lot to
talk about-- you and I together.

-Inside outside things.

-That's for sure.

-Anybody need a good loud alarm?

-Oh, save it for a real
emergency, Lady Elaine.

-OK, Toots.

That's it.

Well, I'm sorry I didn't
see the real you inside.

I'll do better next time.

-Oh, that's the
spirit, Lady Elaine.

-Can't ask for more than that.

-See you.

-Do better next time.

-That's progress.

TROLLEY: [DINGING]

-Oh, I'll tell the trolley.

-And we'll tell all of Westwood.

-Thanks, Lady A.

-Oh, thank you, Kevin
Wendell Neighbor Aber.

-Kevin Wendell?

Who's that?

-There's an outside
chance that you're

touching him right
at this movement.

-[DINGING]

-Yes, Trolley.

Neighbor Aber was
pretending to be a gorilla.

I think he really wanted to
see if people could really

like him for who he is inside.

-[DINGING]

-Yes, I think so, too.

I must tell everyone
at the castle.

-[DINGING]

-Thanks to you, too, Trolley!

-That was Neighbor Aber
pretending to be that gorilla.

He just wanted everyone
to realize that it's

the heart and not the eyes that
discovers what's real about us.

People are sometimes very
different on the inside

than they look on the outside.

Well, let's put
these things back.

You know, you could make
your own Neighborhood

of Make-Believe out of
things that you have at home.

Sure.

Oh, that goes someplace else.

Put this in here.

And now, let's go in here.

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

-Oh, there's
somebody at the door.

Mr. McFeely.

Do you have something
for us, Mr. McFeely?

-No, but I just
stopped by to see

if you've finished
with the Zak book.

-Oh, I haven't read it yet.

Do you need it?

-Well, the people at the
library would like to have it

back as soon as you've finished.

-Well, would you have time
to wait and read it with us?

-Sure.
-Good.

Let's just go on over here.

-I'd enjoy that.

-Here's the book.

Let's go over to the
couch and read it.

-All righty.

-Zak book.

I wanted my friends to see this.

-Zak, the one-of-a-kind dog.

The first thing people ask me
is, what kind of a dog are you?

MR. ROGERS: That's what
people ask Zak, I guess, huh?

MR. MCFEELY: And he
says, I wish I knew.

Someone said there were many
kinds of dogs in my family.

Who were they?

MR. ROGERS: Looks as if Zak
is just thinking and thinking,

doesn't it?

MR. MCFEELY: Let's turn the
page and see what he's thinking.

Oh, a judge.

MR. ROGERS: Pirate.

This is a pirate.

He's thinking that all those
might have been in his family.

MR. MCFEELY: A country farmer.

City slicker.

MR. ROGERS: This is
all his imagination.

MR. MCFEELY: That's right.

Let's see what happens here.

But that doesn't tell me
what kind of dog I am.

I'll have to seek the answer.

MR. ROGERS: So Zak
is going off to find

the answer to his question.

MR. MCFEELY: To his question.

See, we'll turn the page.

And he goes up to someone.

Excuse me, but do you know
what kind of dog I am?

MR. ROGERS: Zak is
asking everybody.

MR. MCFEELY: We'll
turn the page.

I'm not black or white.

I'm not even on the dog chart.

MR. ROGERS: And look
how many different dogs

are on that dog chart.

MR. MCFEELY: Except
Zak's not on the chart.

MR. ROGERS: No.

MR. MCFEELY: Let's
see what's next.

But at least I'm a real dog.

MR. ROGERS: Not a cartoon dog.

MR. MCFEELY: But a real one.

MR. ROGERS: Zak's a real dog.

MR. MCFEELY: And the
cartoon dog's there.

MR. ROGERS: He's a real dog.

MR. MCFEELY: With real feelings.

MR. ROGERS: You can see he does.

Look at his face.

MR. MCFEELY: We'll
turn the page.

I can be brave.

MR. ROGERS: Really brave in
the presence of that cat.

MR. MCFEELY: Honest.

He's got his paw up.

MR. ROGERS: He's an honest dog.

MR. MCFEELY: Playful.

MR. ROGERS: He's
playing with a friend.

MR. MCFEELY: Mm-hmm.

And loving.

MR. ROGERS: He's giving
a kiss to this child.

Oh, that's a beautiful picture.

MR. MCFEELY: There is no
one else just like me,

he's thinking.

MR. ROGERS: No one else in
the whole world like Zak.

MR. MCFEELY: It feels
good to be special.

MR. ROGERS: I bet that's the
hand of one of his friends.

MR. MCFEELY: I'll bet so.

MR. ROGERS: Feels
good to be special.

MR. MCFEELY: Now when people ask
me, what kind of dog are you?

I say, I'm a one-of-a-kind dog.

MR. ROGERS: A one-of-a-kind dog.

Good for you, Zak.

MR. MCFEELY: And here, he said,
what kind of person are you?

-You're one-of-a-kind,
Mr. McFeely.

-And so are you.

-I believe everyone is.

-We're all unique.

-Absolutely.

Thank you for your unique
deliveries and pickups.

-You're quite welcome.

Well, I'll get it
back to the library.

I promised I'd
get it right back.

-All right.

-And that's what I'll do.

-OK.

-Oh, I almost forgot.

-What?

-I have another delivery
I'd like to show you.

-Oh, sure.

Do you want to--

-No, follow me right this way.

I have it in my delivery bag.

-Now, what is this?

-And I'll show it to
you right out here.

Now have a seat on
this step right here.

I have an idea.

-All right.

-Here we go.

-What do you have?

-It is-- just one second.

Get it adjusted here.

-You're winding something up.

-Winding something up.

Just one moment.

There you go.

MR. ROGERS: Look at that!

MR. MCFEELY: Whoops!

MR. ROGERS: What is
that, Mr. McFeely?

MR. MCFEELY: Well, I
call it a speedy critter.

MR. ROGERS: It has
four feet, just like--

MR. MCFEELY: Four feet.

MR. ROGERS: The
two of us together.

Hello there, critter.

MR. MCFEELY: Want to try?

MR. ROGERS: Sure.

-Now, what you do--
I'll get it for you.

You wind it.

There's a winder on the top.

And hold it as you're winding.

There you go!

MR. ROGERS: It's really
dancing, isn't it?

MR. MCFEELY: I thought
you'd enjoy seeing it.

It's certainly a
unique delivery.

-It certainly is unique!

Thank you for that.

-You're quite welcome.

I'm going to show it
to my grandchildren.

-Oh, I bet they'll like it.

-So I'll put this
in my delivery bag,

and I'll take Zak
back to the library.

And remember-- [SINGING] If
there's anything you want,

if there's anything you
need, McFeely's Deliveries

bring it to you here with speed.

Yes, our speedy delivery
is a speedy delivery.

Speedy delivery to you.

[SPEAKING] Speedy delivery!

-Thank you, Mr. McFeely.

-You're quite welcome.
-Hope you have a good day.

-See you around
the neighborhood.

-Yes, sir.

-Bye-bye.

Speedy delivery.

-Oh, don't you enjoy
being with Mr. McFeely?

Well, I've certainly
enjoyed being with you.

It's really good to
be able to do things

with people who care about you.

That's right.

Here's something I like to do.

I like to play that
just before I go away.

It's sort of like practicing
going away and coming back.

Mm-hmm.

You and I are friends,
and I like to be with you.

I wanted to tell you one
thing, though-- one more thing.

Every time you look
at somebody, please

remember that nobody
else in the whole world

is exactly like that person.

That person is
one-of-a-kind, just like you.

Isn't that wonderful?

[SINGING] 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 week is new,

and I'll have more
ideas for you.

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

I will, too.

[SPEAKING] We always
have good things

to talk about and do
together, don't we?

You and I together.

I'll be back next time.

Bye-bye.
