SAMMY: "The Treeborhood Parranda"!

♪

SUPER [over loudspeaker]: Attention, Treeborhood!

Grab your instruments and find your groove,

bring your appetite for yummy foods.

Today's the day we've all been waiting for--

the first-ever Treeborhood parranda

with special musical guests,

the Flapping Feathers!

Parranda is one of my favorite Puerto Rican traditions.

I usually have a big parranda with my family

in Puerto Rico every winter.

Friends and family go door-to-door with instruments

singing songs and playing music, and eating delicious food.

It's going to be so much fun to do it

with the whole Treeborhood this year!

Let's go check and see

if everyone is ready for the parranda!

[giggling]

Those decorations are looking great!

Almost ready for the parranda?

Found it!

[muffled, then clear trumpet playing]

Mm, the bibingka smells wonderful, Gabriela!

I bet it tastes delicious, too.

Maybe I ought to try one, just to be sure?

[chuckles]

Think I'll check in with the Flapping Feathers,

they should have been here by now.

[tablet dialing]

Hello, José!

[over tablet]: It's Super, I'm just checking in

to find out when you'll be arriving.

Hey Super, we're just heading into the Woodsy Woods now,

so we should be at the Treeborhood before dark.

We can't wait to play our music for everyone at the parranda.

Terrific! See you soon.

See you soon!

[honks horn]

♪

I can't believe the Flapping Feathers

are going to be here in the Treeborhood!

I know!

That's why I made you a big old surprise.

Check this out!

SAMMY:Cool!

Your wagon looks just like the Flapping Feathers' tour bus!

It's amazing!

I thought you could ride in it

when we go from house to house singing and eating.

Hop in!Thanks, Louisa!

Let's parranda!

♪

Where are they?Oh!

Their wagon looks just like the bus

the Flapping Feathers have.

Whoa!Did you not know?

José's favorite color is red,

Enrique's favorite food is rice and beans,

and Luna's favorite day is Monday!

[laughs]

It's getting late.

The Flapping Feathers should've been here by now.

I'll give them a call and see where they are.

[tablet ringing]

[tablet ringing, vibrating]

Hey, Flapping Feathers.

How long until you get to the Treeborhood?

Uh... [chuckles]

We... we're actually a little bit lost.

Uh, I think it's... that way!

[tires screech]

[gasps] Look out for those sharp...!

[bus rumbling, tires hissing, band groaning]

...rocks.

Uh oh.

LUNA: Four flat tires.

What are we gonna do, Super?

We'll never make it in time for the parranda.

Stay put. I'm on my way.

The Flapping Feathers have four flat tires

and they need my help.

But don't worry, everyone,

I'll bring the Flapping Feathers back in no time.

Oh, no.

This could take a while. Guess I'll go back to work.

What if they don't make it here in time?

How will we do a parranda without music?

Unless...

unless we make our own parranda band and play our own music.

But we don't even know how to make a band.

I do! My mamas were in a band a long time ago--

The Two Roos.

All we need to make a band are instruments

and someone to play them.

If we want to sound like the Flapping Feathers,

then we need the three instruments they play.

These are bongos.

[bongos playing]

This is a guiro.

[guiro playing]

And these are castanets. [castanets playing]

My mama has tons of instruments

in the Creation Station music room.

Let's see if we can find the ones we need.

To the Creation Station music room!

♪

See?

There's lots of instruments in here.

Let's see if

we can find castanets first.

SAMMY: No.LOUISA: Nuh-uh.

SAMMY: That's not it.

Aw, there's no castanetsin here.

Let's look for a guiro.

Aww, there's no guiro here either.

Bongos. There have to be bongos in here.

Uh-uh.

No.

What kind of music room is this?

It doesn't have any of the instruments we need.

We can't make a band unless

we have the instruments the Flapping Feathers play.

Hey!

We might not be able to find the instruments we need,

but maybe we can make them?

Like these tissue box guitars.

That is a great idea, Louisa.

♪

Where are you, Flapping Feathers?

I'm not sure.

We can't read the map.

How about you play some music and I'll follow the sound?

[playing music]

[music playing faintly]

[gasps] I hear you, I'll be right there.

SAMMY: The instruments we make have to sound

like the Flapping Feathers' instruments.

[bongos playing]

The bongo has a low and echoey sound.

Maybe if we find something

that's shaped like a bongo, it might sound like a bongo.

It's round, and it has a top that's the shape of a circle.

[chiming]

♪

Let's test out the paint can first.

Play the bongo sound.

[bongos playing]

[slaps lid]

The paint can sounds too high and not echoey at all.

Let's test out the hat. [slaps hat]

It's kind of echoey, but it's not making much of a sound.

Let's test out this bowl.

[slaps bowl]

It sounds more like the bongo.

But the bongo sounds echoey-er, I wonder why?

Oh, the bongos have something covering the top.

Let's use this hat to cover the top of the bowl.

Hm, the hat is really saggy.

Hm, the top of the bongo is tight.

Let's look for something that will be tighter on the bowl.

[gasps]

What about these balloons?

[balloon stretching] Almost... got it!

We did it! See how it sounds.

[slaps lid, sound resembles bongo]

[bongos playing]LOUISA: Whoa!

The bowl sounds just like the Flapping Feathers' bongos.

Wait.

We need to make a second one so it matches this picture.

[taps bowl] They sound perfect.

What's next?The guiro.

[guiro playing]

It sounds scratchy.

Well, when Luna plays it,

she rubs a stick across that long round thing.

That long round thing kind of looks like a squash.

Kat and Kit just picked a bunch of squash

in the Sow 'N Grow Garden.

To the Sow 'N Grow Garden!

♪

We need a squash that matches the shape of a guiro.

Hm... that one.

Hey!

This squash looks just like the guiro.

[guiro playing]

[stick rubbing]

Aw, the squash sounds too smooth.

Hm. [gasps]

These cans have ridges on them.

[scratchy sound]

Yes! That sounds just like a guiro.

Only one instrument left to make,

the castanets. [castanets playing]

They make a clicky-clacky sound.

Maybe Mr. E has something that clicks and clacks

in the Everything Emporium.

He should, it's called the "Everything" Emporium.

To the Everything Emporium!

[music playing faintly]

Hooray, I found them! Hey, Flapping Feathers!

Hey![gasps]

You've got four flats, all right.

[gadget whirring, pumping air]

Done! Your bus is ready to ride.

Let's hurry to the Treeborhood for the parranda.

♪

Follow my hot air balloon!

[fading away]: Meet you there!

We're making instruments for our own band.

Where can we find things that go clicky-clacky like castanets do?

[castanets playing]

In the "Things That Go Clicky-Clacky" aisle

that Zeke organized, of course.

This is what the castanets sound like.

[castanets playing]

[timer ticking]

[timer rings, kids yelp]

Castanets do not have a bell sound.

[taps keys]

The keyboard sounds like tick, tick, tick,

not clicky-clacky like the castanets.

[shoes clack on ground]

The tap shoes sound clicky clacky, just like the castanets.

We have all the instruments we need

to sound like the Flapping Feathers!Wait!

We have one, two, three instruments,

but only one, two band members.

We need one more band member.

[rapid tap dancing]

Yes, yes, yes! I would love to join your band.

Now, let's go.

We have a parranda to start.

MR. E: ♪ De casa, en casa♪

♪ Con amigos a gozar♪

Hey, cool instruments. They sound just like ours.

We weren't sure you would make it

in time for the parranda, so we made our own band.

Wanna join us?

Let the parranda begin.

Everyone join in with their own instruments,

and we'll go from house to house.

ZADIE: "Happy New Acorn Year"!

ELLIE: Yippee!

[balloon pops, both chuckling]

I love New Year's Eve!

It's so festive.

And when we drop the giant acorn at midnight?

Oh! De-light-light-light-ful!

Uh-oh.

Zeke, Malik, and Zadie's faces

have gone from gloomy to downright heartbreaking.

I better go tell them the good news.

I call the Wombat kid committee to order.

Today's business is how much this stinks.

Because the New Year's Eve celebration happens at midnight.

We never ever, ever, ever get to see it, and why?

BOTH: It's past our bedtime.

Well, I say make our bedtime later.

Just for New Year's Eve, so we can see the acorn drop.

Yeah, this stinks.

Two questions; what is New Year's Eve?

And what is an acorn drop?

Today is New Year's Eve.

It's the last day of the year.

[gasps] No more days? Ever?

[laughs] No, Zeke, there will be more days.

It's just the last day of this year.

At midnight, the new year begins and the old year ends.

And we have a whole new bunch of days to fill with fun.

And on New Year's Eve, which is tonight,

all the grown-ups stay up until midnight

and watch the big acorn drop

from the tippity top of the Treeborhood.

And then they yell, "Happy New Year!"

And have all kinds of fun.

While we, the kids, have to be in bed and miss everything.

SUPER [over speaker]: Malik, Zadie, Zeke, please come here for a second.

We know what you're going to say, Super.

[sighs] "It's late, get ready for--

A party, whoo-hoo!

Huh, I thought she was going to say, "Get ready for bed."

Didn't you, Snout?

Not this year-- since New Year's Eve is a super special night,

and only happens once a year,

we should let the kids stay up until midnight

to watch the acorn drop.

ALL: Yes!

Except the Fishman babies, of course-- they're still babies.

Gootchie, gootchie, cute!

This is epic!

I wonder if Louisa is as excited as I am?

I think she's probably napping.

What? Napping?

Why?

Leiko is holding a nap-a-thon

for all the kids who want to stay up.

She figures a nap now might help kids stay awake later.

Maybe you should think about joining them?

Nap? Us? Nuh-uh.

We don't need naps. We got this.

♪

LOUISA: Let's nap it up, my friends.

Goodnight, everyone.

[sighs]

One Zeke and Snout, two Zeke and Snout,

three Zeke and...

Louisa, what are you doing?

I always count Zeke and Snout jumping over a fence

to fall asleep.

Okay, but can you whisper?

Sure.

[whispering loudly]: Four Zeke and Snout, five Zeke and Snout, six Zeke and Snout...

[yawning]

You can't be sleepy-- we haven't even started staying awake yet.

Tell that to my face. It keeps...

[yawns]

We need a plan to stay awake.

The acorn drop is at midnight, which is five hours from now.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait-- five hours?

Okay. We need a plan.

Something fun to play that will keep us from falling asleep.

How can we make sure our eyes stay open?

Hm... [gasps]

We need an open eyeball game.

Zeke, that's it! We can do a staring contest.

Great plan.

A staring contest will keep our eyes open for sure.

Remember how to play, Zeke?

You and I stare at Malik without blinking.

And he stares back at us without blinking.

And the first one who blinks loses.

♪

[yawning]

That staring contest made my eyes feel even heavier.

Phew!

We need to work this out.

The one time we get to stay up past our bedtime

and we keep falling asleep.

We don't wanna fall asleep-- our eyeballs wanna.

And the room feels so warm and cozy,

with my blanket and these pillows.

[drifting off]: It makes me just wanna...

[claps twice] Wake up!Whoa!

Maybe if I weren't so warm and cozy, then I wouldn't be sleepy.

What's the opposite of warm and cozy?

Mm, cold and wet?

That's it! I have a plan.

♪

We can stick our feet in ice water.

You can't feel warm and cozy if you have wet and cold feet.

[pours water]

Cold, cold, cold!Ah, ooh!

[shivering] It's wor-wor-working, I'm not sl-e-e-epy.

[shivering] Ha! Who needs a n-n-ap?Not us.

[shivering]

LOUISA: Zeke and Snout.

Hey, is anyone asleep around here?

How could we possibly sleep with all your loud counting?

Oh, sorry, I didn't know my counting would keep you up.

I'll name colors instead.

[loud whispering]: Yellow, red, blue...

[shivering] I'm awake, but fr-fr-freezing.

[shivering] D-D-Don't worry it's only t-t-three hours until midnight.

[shivering] I'll b-be a p-popscicle by t-then.

M-m-maybe we could put on warm c-c-clothes?

[shivering]

Ahh, much better, I'm not cold at all now.

Yeah. [sighs]

Sitting here in these warm clothes

make me feel all cozy inside.

I feel so warm and relaxed and...

[snoring]

Not again.

[claps] Wake up!Ah!

We need to work this out and find a way to stay awake,

or we'll miss the acorn drop.

The ice worked,

but we got too cold.

And the warm clothes made us warmer.

But being relaxed and cozy made us sleepy.

How do we fix this?

Hm, what if we do the opposite

of sitting still in warm clothes?

First, take off our warm clothes.

Then second, we do the opposite of sitting still.

We dance!

[turns on radio]You can't sleep and dance at the same time.

[disco music playing]

[lullaby playing]

Uh-oh, the song changed! It's slower now-- much slower.

That's okay, just keep dancing in time with the music.

I like dancing to this song,

but it's making my body slow down.

[yawns]

My legs feel like wobbly noodles.

My eyelids are heavy...

[snoring]

And must turn off radio.

Can't go to sleep, noodle legs don't fail me.

[grunts] Legs, you failed me.

Must. Turn. Off. Radio.

[turns off radio]

Wake up!Ah!

Dancing didn't work-- well, I mean, it did,

until the radio played a slow, sleepy song.

How do we fix this?

I wish we had a loud and noisy song

that would never, ever let us sleep.

I have a plan!

[noisemaker noises]

Oh yeah, we can make our own loud music.

[cacophonous music]

Wait, what if we went outside to make the music,

where it's colder?

That way we won't be warm and cozy and fall asleep.

Loud music and cold air should keep us awake for sure.

Let's go! [cacophony continues]

We are wide awake and how!

Nothing's gonna stop us now.

We are wide awake and how!

Nothing's gonna stop us now.

We're staying awake. We worked it out!

[cacophonous music playing]

FELICIA: Zadie! Malik! Zeke!

Shh!

It's nearly :! It's late!

Your loud music is going to wake the babies.

Sorry about that.

And now we can't play loud music

because it will wake the babies-- how do we fix this?

If only there was someplace we could play

where we wouldn't bother anyone.

Zeke, that is a plan.

We can play in the music room at the Creation Station.

It's sound proof--come on!

[drifting off]: Teal green,

puce, indigo...

[snoring]

[whispers]: Finally, she's asleep.

Shh!

[grunts, noisemaker rattles]

Oops. Sorry about that.

Did I, by any chance, wake you?

That's okay, none of us have gotten any sleep.

Except Louisa.[snoring]

Where are you going?

We're going to try and keep ourselves awake

by playing loud music in the soundproof music room.

Can we join you?

We might as well

since we can't seem to nap.

[playing music]

It's time for the acorn drop, whoo hoo!

We did it, we worked it out.

We stayed awake.

[playing music]

Oh. Did I fall asleep?

♪

[indistinct chatter, laughter]

It's nearly midnight, and, as is our tradition,

we each share our favorite thing we did this year.

Like when I became Mighty Zeke.

And when I found Super's glasses in the puzzle box.

When we had Backwards Day and had pancakes for dinner.

When we built a rocket ship to the moon.

And did you not know

my favorite thing was staying up and waiting

for the big, old acorn drop?

And this is it, the moment you've all been waiting for.

It's time for the countdown.

I got this, Super.

Ten! Nine! Eight! Seven! Six!

Five! Four! Three! Two! One!

[confetti pops]ALL: Happy New Year!

The best part of this year

was having you three squishes in my life.
