[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 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 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?

Hi, neighbor!

How are you feeling?

Oh, I'm fine, and I wanted to
show you something right away.

This is a magnifying glass.

Does it make my eye look big?

The further I keep it from
my eye, the bigger it gets.

What about my hand?

Can you see my fingers?

Does that make them look bigger?

I want to get a book and
show you with the book.

This is a book that a friend
of mine, Eric Carle, wrote.

And it's been translated in
many different languages.

This one is in Japanese.

So I'll put the magnifying
glass right over the words here.

These are the
Japanese characters.

And just making the words bigger
doesn't help, if you don't know

what the words mean
in the first place.

[PHONE RINGS]

Oh!

There's the phone.

See who's on the phone.

Hello?

Hi, Joe!

Certainly.

Really?

Oh, I'd like very
much to hear him.

Thank you.

We well!

We'll come over.

All right.

Bye bye.

That was Mr. Negri
at the music shop.

He has a guest there who
is a very fine guitarist,

and he wants us to
come over and meet him.

Manuel Barrueco is
the guitarist's name.

I've heard some
of his recordings,

and he is a splendid player.

So let's just go now
to Negri's Music Shop!

Come along.

-Hi Lynn!

-Hi Fred.

-Is Joe here?

-Yes, he wants you to
come in the back room.

-OK.

I'll see you later.

Hi, Aaron!

-Hi Mister Rogers!

-I'm glad to see you
and your dad today.

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

-Oh, here's Fred now!

Hi Fred, I'm glad
you could come over.

Fred Rogers, Manuel Barrueco.

-I'm glad to meet you.

-Very nice to meet you.

-Oh, I'd like you to know
my television neighbor.

Mr. Barrueco.

-Hello!

-I've listened to recordings
of your beautiful guitar music,

and I want very much to
hear you live, if I may.

-Would you like to
hear some Bach, maybe?

-Some Bach-- one of our
favorite composers-- yes!

-Yes?

-Thank you.

-I will play a gigue by Bach.

-A dance-- a kind of dance.

-That's right.

Yeah.

-Oh, bravo, bravo!

-Thank you very much.

-How do you know where
to put your fingers?

My goodness, they're
all over the place.

-Well, I first teach them
by-- by teaching them

how to do it very slowly first.

Sort of like learn to
walk before running.

So, I teach them
slowly and then like--

like-- [SLOW GUITAR PLAYING]
and then slowly speed it up.

-Oooh, I love to hear that.

-Manuel plays all kinds of
music, you know, but I wonder--

could you play us something,
uh, with a Spanish--

or maybe Cuban-- flavor--

-Yes.

-That you might remember?

-Yeah.

This is called a comparsa.

-Now what are you
doing up there?

Making a change?

-Yeah, I have to
lower the-- the bass,

the sixth string down
to a D from an A.

-Ah.

-Because the piece
is in D, so it

makes it more possible
to play the-- the basses.

-I see.

Wow, it's just like it's a
part of you, this instrument.

-Anyway, La Comparsa,
it's called.

-[SINGING AND CLAPPING]

-Is that a dance, Manuel?

-Yes, it is a dance.

Actually, La Comparsa
is a dance that

will be danced
through the streets

during the times of Carnival.

-Of Carnival.

-Now, obviously you
didn't play like this

when you started to play.

I just wonder-- what-- what
was one of the first things

that you learned to play
when you started the guitar?

Because-- how old were you?

Were you a young boy?

-I was eight--

-Eight years old.

-Yes, when I began.

Yeah.

And in fact, I first started
playing Latin American

popular music, and
then my teachers

introduced me to the classical.

And I remember one of the
very first classical pieces

that I played, and
I just remember

being very proud of that.

It went something like this--
[GUITAR PLAYING] something

like that.

-Did anybody else
in your family play?

-Oh, excuse me.

Excuse me.

-Yes, my sisters actually were
the ones that began to play--

-Tony!

Nice to see you.

-Nice to see you, Seth!
-Come on in!

-Thank you.

-It's your friend.

-And you loved it so
much-- there's Tony!

-Hola, Senor Roger!

-Good to see you, Tony.
-Manuel!

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-I just had to show you this.

-What is it?

One of your toys?

-Yeah, well, as you
know, I have this toy,

costume, and bookshop.

And Manuel I don't
think knows about it,

but I just recently got this
toy that the kids seem to love.

And it's in the shape
of a musical instrument.

-Yeah, it looks like a trombone.

-Yeah.

It's a kazoo in the
shape of a trombone--

-Play it for us.

-And I've been practicing--

-Oh, good.

-Avidly.

Here it goes.

[COUGHS] Gotta get the feeling.

-OK.

[KAZOO PLAYING]

[LAUGHTER]

-But actually, I
think-- I think if you

played something together.

That's why I came, to
hear you play together.

-Well, we haven't done
it, but we'd love to.

Want to try it?

-Yeah.

How about your special?

-Yeah, OK.

-Especial.

-Especial.

-[SINGING] Especial.

-That's for sure.

Beautiful.

-You are special, Manuel.

-I should say.

-That was special.

-Thank you so much for that.

What a treat.

Do you know about his store?

-I'd like to come
visit, if it's possible.

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Si.

-Would you like to join us?

I'd like to, but I need
to get back to my place.

Great to be with you, though.

Thanks for being so special.

-It was my pleasure.

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

-See you later!

-See you.

-See you.

-Here, I'll try to get
your guitar case, eh?

[VOICES FADE INTO BACKGROUND]

-[SINGING] There's only one
in this wonderful world-- hi!

-Hi.

-See you later.

Bye bye.

And they've been
playing and practicing

their music since
they were children.

Oh, I love listening
to them play.

They make me want to play, too.

Just hearing them play makes me
want to come to the piano and--

[PIANO MUSIC]

[SINGING] Special.

You are special.

You are.

Shall we have some
make-believe now?

Hello, trolley!

Let's try this on the trolley.

Maybe on the letters up here.

Neighbor-- hood Trolley.

We've been pretending
that King Friday

XIII wants to see
inside everything.

Inside, yeah.

So, he has commanded
Corny to manufacture

something for looking
inside things.

Well, let's think
more about that,

as this trolley goes
by the castle garden.

You know the castle in the
Neighborhood of Make-Believe.

Let's pretend that the trolley
is going by the castle garden

in the neighborhood
of Make-Believe.

-Here's the trolley.

Hello, trolley!

-Hola!

-Are you sure you're
ready, Hula Mouse?

-Si, si, si! [SPEAKING SPANISH]

-So, you're ready
for your surprise?

-Si, Su Majestad.

-All right.

Cover your eyes with your paws.

-OK.

-Now I'll go get it.

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Well, I hope you
think it's a good one.

-Esta bien.

-Now, count to eight,
and I'll be back.

-OK.

Uno, dos, tres, cuatro,
cinco, seis, siete, ocho!

-There it is!

There it is!

-[GASPS] Que bello!

-Mm-hmm.

-Que hermoso!

Que es?

-It's a picture I
made for you, HM.

Mm-hmm.

-Ah, [SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Yes, I painted it just for
you, and the closer you look,

you'll see.

-Oh, muchas gracias.

[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-You're very
welcome, Hula Mouse.

Remember, look
carefully, and farewell!

-Hasta luego!

[SPEAKING SPANISH]

[TRUMPET FANFARE]

-Royal Hula Mouse, I presume?

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-And what are you
studying there, HM?

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Oh, well, you'll have
plenty of time for that.

Right now I need your help.

-Oh, si, si. [SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Yes.

Will you kindly ask Cornflake
S. Specially how he is coming

with the Looking
Inside Things device?

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-That's exactly right.

He should be finished by now.

Simply bring it
to the castle when

he has it completed so we
can see inside of things.

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

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

Hi, Hula Mouse!

You are special.

How are you this fine day?

-Bien, bien.

Come estas tu, Senor Neighbor?

-Oh, bien, gracias.

Oh, that's a great
painting there, Hula Mouse.

-Si. [SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Really?

-Que es eso?

-I didn't know Queen
Sara was such an artist.

-Que es eso?

-This?

-Que-- que es eso?

-This is a delivery for
Lady Elaine Fairchilde.

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-I'll be glad to try.

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Come with you to the factory?

-Si.

-Si.

-Vamos!

Corny!

Cornflake S. Specially!

-Well, hello there gentlemen.

How are you, Hula Mouse?

-Hola!

-And Mr. Aber.

-Oh, just fine.

Thank you, Corny.

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-I wondered when somebody
might be coming for it.

I'll go get it for you.

-He's a man who manufactures.

-Now, this is the best
I can do for today--

A Look Carefully Device.

-Look Carefully Device, you say?

-Yeah, that's it.

Now, now, I have to get back
to my rocking chair job.

I'm very busy, you know.

Thanks.

Bye!

-Bye for now, Corny.

[HULA MOUSE SQUEAKS]

What is it, Hula Mouse?

What?

What is--

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-HM, clear as day.

That's great.

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Oh, I see it right there.

Oh, that's wonderful.

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Tres?

Hula Mouse, tres?

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Wow, four HM's!

Good for you, Hula Mouse!

You'll never know
what you'll find

if you look carefully, huh?

-Uh-huh.

-But, Hula Mouse, I think King
Friday wanted a device that

would look inside
the wrapping so he

could know what
people are carrying.

-Ah.

[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Right.

He might not like it.

-[SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Sure, as soon as I deliver
this to Lady Elaine.

Hey, Hula Mouse.

How would you like to
come along with me?

-Esta bien!

-Vamos!

-Vamos.

Uh oh.

It looks like Lady Elaine is--

HULA MOUSE: Muy,
muy, muy ocupada!

-Right.

So, we'll just do as she says.

Leave the delivery
behind the wall.

-Ah ha. [SPEAKING SPANISH]

-To the castle!

[SINGING] If you
will look carefully--

-[SINGING IN SPANISH]

-[SINGING IN SPANISH]

-You will find a lot
of things carefully.

Look!

Look!

Look!

And listen.

-Well, well, welcome.

You look as if you're
having a wonderful time.

-Oh, we are, Queen Sara.

And Hula Mouse found
four HM's in the picture

you painted for him.

-Good for you, Hula Mouse.

How did you find
those HM's so quickly?

-Oh, [SPEAKING SPANISH]

-Ah ha.

[TROLLEY BELL]

-We'll see what the King says.

-Well yes, Trolley.

[TROLLEY BELL]

-Mm-hmm.

That device was like our
magnifying glass, wasn't it?

It doesn't look
inside of things.

I wonder if King Friday
will accept that?

Well, we'll think more
about that next time.

Or, how about making up your
own story in the meantime?

Make up your own make-believe.

Sure, you've got good ideas.

You can do that.

It's time to feed the fish now.

You ready for your food, fish?

There.

Such beautiful fish you are.

Beautiful and special.

Oh look here.

Here's the tiny trolley.

Let's see if that magnifies.

There it is.

Might look bigger,
but it's still itself.

[INAUDIBLE]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR] There's
somebody at the door.

Let's see who it is.

It's Mr. McFeely!

Mr. McFeely!

-A delivery to you!

-Well, I don't think I
ordered anything today.

-Well, you didn't,
but I was delivering

something for Tony Shaw.

And he showed me
something that he

said he had showed
you earlier today.

-You mean the kazoo?

-The kazoo!

You were right!

-Ah, well what did
you think of it?

-Well, I bought it.

There it is-- my kazoo!

-You bought it!

-That's right.

-Wow, that's a great instrument.

But he was playing
one just like that.

And are you able to play it?

-You just sort of hum into it.

[PLAYS KAZOO] You see?

-Very good.

-Oh-- I have an idea.

-What?

-Let's do a duet.

-All right.

You and I playing together?

-That's right.

You on the piano--

-All right.

-And I'll play the kazoo.

-You on the kazoo.

-That's right.

-OK.

-Here we go.

Now I think we should sort
of tune up a little bit.

-All right.

-And maybe, uh, I'll
try tuning up the kazoo.

[PLAYS KAZOO]

[PIANO IMITATES KAZOO MELODY]

-That's right.

[PLAYS KAZOO] Mr.
McFeely's my name.

-Oh, right.

-That's right.

OK.

Now-- oh, I know.

I'll do the speedy
delivery song, all righty?

-Very good.

-Here we go.

[KAZOO AND PIANO DUET]

-Speedy delivery!

-Very nice.

-Speedy delivery on the kazoo.

-Very good.

I wondered if you might
sing it while I played it.

-All righty.

Here we go.

[SINGING] If there's anything
you want, if there's anything,

you need, McFeely's
delivery brings

it to you here with speed.

Yes, our speedy delivery
is a speedy delivery.

Speedy delivery to you.

Speedy delivery!

A kazoo delivery today.

-Oh, you played that very well.

-Well, thank you very much.

I just thought I'd stop by.

I have more deliveries to do, so
that's what I'll do right now.

I'll put this in
my delivery pack,

and go on my delivery ways.

All righty?

-OK. [PLAYS PIANO]

-Speedy delivery to you!

Well, I'll see you
around the neighborhood,

and maybe another
day I'll stop by

and we can do another
duet, all righty?

-I love everything that
you bring, Mr. McFeely.

-Well, thank you
very much, and I'll

just say, speedy
delivery to you!

-Thanks.

-Bye bye.

-Bye-bye.

Do you ever sing
that song to people?

You know, if somebody asks you
to get something for them--

if I should say,
would you please

hand me this magnifying glass?

And then you hand
it to me and you

say, speedy delivery to you.

Do you have neighbors with
whom you love to visit?

People that you
love to play with?

I hope so.

It doesn't matter how big
or small or old or young

they may be.

Loving neighbors can be the best
gifts in our whole living time.

[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 day is new,

and I'll have more
ideas for you.

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

I will too.

You will have things
you want to talk about.

So will I. We'll have lots that
we can think about it and play.

I like it when we're
able to be together.

Do you?

I mean, here we are,
television neighbors.

Isn't that a good
feeling to know

that we're alive and together?

I'll be back next time.

Goodbye.
