[ Laughing ]
do I love sleepovers !

Look at me.
I'm the monster
that ate lake hoohaw !

[ Gobbling, gasps ]

Hey !
Whoa.
What's that ?

This is the mommy monster
that says it's time for bed.

Oh, mom !
Do we have to ?
I'm still hungry.

Well, I'd bet if you
swallow that pie, you'd
solve your hunger problem.

When you're finished cleaning up
and brushing your teeth,

I'll come tuck you in.

Okay, mommy.
Uh, I mean--

Um... Okay, mom.

Sleep tight, everyone.

Good night, mom.
Night, mrs. Duck.

Don't let the bed bugs bite.
Sleepovers are fun.

Sleepovers are the best,
totally !
[ All agreeing ]

I wish we could
do them a lot.

- Why don't we ?
- Yeah, how 'bout a sleepover
tomorrow night at my house ?

Then the next night
at my house.

And then the night
after that--
at our house.

This is gonna be so great.

munchy, bunchy,
woody, woody, crunchy.

Okay, hand over the wood,
and nobody gets hurt.
[ Sighs ]

yum, yum. Yum.

- Please pass the sandpaper.
- Jelly, wake up.

Munchy's talking
in his sleep.
[ grumbling ]

What's he saying ?

No, with the grain.

Love the wood.
Love the wood.

[ Mumbling ]

No clue.
Something about
lovin' wood.

What's going on ?
Careful there,
little lady.

Don't wanna
get a splinter.
[ Mumbles ]

[ Groans ]
cheese and crackers !

It's the middle of the night.
Can't a duck get some sleep ?

♪ I built me a dam
so carefully ♪

♪ That now I am a beaver
in the queen's navy ♪♪

[ Happy mumbling ]

[ Loud laughing ]

Boy, is that silly !

Well, hey, everybody.
Wh-what's so funny ?

Oh, I don't know.

♪ I built me a dam so carefully
that now I am a beaver
in the queen's navy ♪♪

[ Laughing ]

Munchy, you were talking
in your sleep.

Too bad you weren't
awake to hear it.
You'd be laughing too.

Sorry.
I didn't mean to.

[ Yawning ]
okay, okay, joke's over.

It's not a big deal.
Just try to keep it down.

I'm exhausted.
Yeah, come on, y'all.

I've got to get
my beauty sleep.
Good night, jelly.

Good night, peanut.
Good night, munchy.

Good night, munchy.

I had no idea
I talked in my sleep.

I am so embarrassed.

All right !
Another night,
another sleepover.

Woo-hoo !

It's great our parents
let us do this.

Come on in,
everybody.

Here you are, jelly.
Thank you, pinch.

[ Slurping ]
I wonder why munchy's
not here yet.

No clue, but I sure wish
he'd hurry up and get here.

Me too !
That talking-in-his-sleep
thing is a riot !

I wonder where munchy
could be.

You're munchy.
You're a beaver.

You can do it !

[ Sighs ]
who am I kidding ?

I can't do it.
I can't go to pinch's
sleepover.

[ munchy ]
well, hey, everybody.
wh-what's so funny ?

Talking in my sleep.
How embarrassing !

There's no way I'm going
to pinch's sleepover...

Unless--

Unless I just don't sleep.

How come you
were so late,
munchy ?

Well, uh, i, uh,

I was really busy
talking to my mirror ?

- What ?
- Nothing. Never mind.

Not important.
[ wanda ]
all right, everyone.

Time for sleep.

Don't go to sleep.
Don't go... To sleep.

[ Snoring ]

[ Gasps ]
don't go to sleep.
Don't go to sleep.

Please don't go to sleep.
Please don't go to sleep.

cheese and crackers,
munchy !
what are ya doing ?

- Not sleeping.
- Oh.

Well, just be quiet
about it, will ya ?

[ yawning ]

[ birds chirping ]

[ All yawning, groaning ]

Nothin' like
a good night's sleep.

Yup. Heh-heh.
Well, I'm going home now.

Don't forget, munchy.
Sleepover's at your house
tonight !

[ Gasps ]

Oh, hey, guys.
What are you doing here ?

The sleepover.
Remember ?

- It's your turn.
- Oh, yeah ! Ha-ha.
So it is.

Well, aren't you
gonna invite us in ?

Uh, no. We can't have
the sleepover tonight.

Oh, man !
You're kiddin',
right ?

- [ Pinch ] how come ?
- I, um, w-well, uh,

I forgot to tell my mom
about it.

You forgot ?
Cheese and crackers !

But she said
we could do it
some other time.

i think she meant like
next year or just before
we go to college.

Sorry. See ya.

Boy, munchy sure
is acting weird.

I'm worried
about him.

Me too. You think
space aliens have invaded
his brain or something ?

Well, I don't know
what's going on,

But I'm gonna
figure it out.

Hey, munchy,
tonight's the sleepover
at my house !

you've gotta be there, man.

Sounds like fun,
but I don't think
I can make it.

Look, munchy, I know you've
been doing everything
to avoid our sleepovers.

- So what's up ?
- You'll never guess
in a million years.

- Is it 'cause you talk
in your sleep ?
- Hmph. Lucky guess.

It's really embarrassing
to do something so weird...

That it wakes people up
and has them look at you
so funny.

I'm never gonna ever go
to another sleepover.

We gotta figure out a way
to make our sleepover
okay for munchy.

Must be time
for a noodle dance !

I'll noodle,
but I won't dance.

♪♪

♪ noodle
use your noodle ♪

♪ noodle
do the noodle dance ♪♪

I've got it !

Yoo-hoo ! Peanut !
Sorry.

If everybody at the sleepover
wore mondo-big earmuffs,

we wouldn't hear munchy
talk in his sleep,
so he wouldn't be embarrassed.

That's a great idea, jelly !

Any idea where we can
get mondo-big earmuffs
by tonight ?

- No clue.
- [ Both ]
hmm.

How 'bout we make munchy
sleep in a soundproof
chamber-of-silence dome thingy ?

soundproof chamber.
know where we can get one ?

No clue.
I think I just
made it up.

Know what I think ?
No. What ?

I think we need
to keep thinkin'.

[ Both ]
hmm.
Whoa !

You okay, peanut ?
Yeah.

Just a little embarrassed.
Hey, that's it !

We all do things
that are embarrassing.

You're right, peanut.
If only we could
help munchy see that.

I think we can,
and I think pinch
and flick can help.

Remember when I lost
my front teeth, munchy ?

now, that was embarrassing.

And remember how my tummy
sometimes rumbles so loud...

That everybody stops
and stares at me ?

[ Rumbling ]

[ Rumbling continues ]

embarrassing.

And you know how I always
have giggle fits ?
Embarrassing.

Everybody does something
that embarrasses them,
munchy.

Not me !
Aaah !

Well, maybe sometimes.

See, munchy ?
Everybody does stuff
that's embarrassing.

Sometimes people laugh.

[ Both ]
it's no big deal !

Yeah, now you've
got it, munchy !

Now I don't feel so bad
about sleep talking.

It's no big deal.
So you're coming
to our sleepover ?

- I wouldn't miss it.
- [ All cheering ]

All right !

[ munchy mumbling ]

Hey, what was that ?

I think it's munchy
talking in his sleep again.
It's no big deal.

I know, but I wonder
what he's saying.

[ mumbling ]

I'm sayin',
it's no big deal !

I got ya !

[ laughing continues ]

Hey, munchy,
check this out !
Come on, bubbles.

[ Barking ]

[ Laughing ]
good, bubbles.

I bet bubbles is the coolest
bass in the whole lake.

In the whole world,
even.

He's great !
You guys are so lucky.

- I wish I could have
a pet like bubbles.
- Why can't you ?

My mom says it's
a lot of responsibility,
and I'm not ready.

That's what our mom said
at first.

- So how did you guys
get bubbles ?
- Well, it was like this.

Here you go, peanut.
[ Laughs ]

Hey, major jeff.
What's that
on your shoulder ?

- Birdy !
- That's right, baby butter.

It's my new pet, miss minah.
You like her ?
[ Chirping ]

She's great !
Tweet, tweet.

Come on, miss minah.
It's dinnertime. Bye !

See ya, mayor jeff.
See ya !
See ya, miss minah.

Can we get a bird, dad.
Can we, please ?
can we, daddy ?

Can we "plee" ?
Or some other kind
of pet, even.

Yeah !
We want a pet !

I don't know, pb&j.
A pet is a big responsibility.

Mama, mama !
Mayor jeff has a new bird.

She flies around and whistles
and everything !

Can we get one ?
Yeah, mom.
Can we get a pet ?

Slow down now.
A pet--

Is a big responsibility.
That's what dad said.

He's right.
A pet's not a toy.

A pet needs love
and attention.

We could take care of a pet.
Honest, mom, we could.

- Are you willing to prove it ?
- What do you mean, mama ?

- I mean, you can have
a practice pet.
- A practice pet ?

Here, I'll show you.

An alarm clock ?
What do we do
with an alarm clock ?

Pretend it's your pet.
We'll set the bell.

- When it sounds, feed it.
- Oh, I get it !

If it goes off again,
give it a bath or exercise
or just love it.

But how can you
feed a clock ?

Pretend.
Use your imagination.

If you do a good job
of taking care of your
pretend pet for a week,

We'll talk about
getting a real one.

All right !
[ Alarm rings ]

- Time for a walk.
- Right now ?

Okay.
Come on, clock.
Let's go for a walk.

That's the spirit, jelly.

[ Laughing ]
woo-hoo !

[ chuckling ]

[ Rings ]
oh, no !
Not again.

I guess your pet
is hungry too.

You guys were right.

A pet is a lot
of responsibility.

If this is too much
for you kids,

Maybe we should just forget
about getting a real pet.

No, we can do it, mama.

I'm gonna feed it
right now.

[ Jelly, baby butter
laughing ]

[ ringing ]

Man, taking care of a clock
is a lot harder than I thought.

I know, but we want
a real pet, right ?
Yeah.

Well, maybe we can make
taking care of a clock
more fun.

How do we do that ?

Uh, maybe if we gave it a name,
it would feel more
like a real pet.

- What should we call it ?
- Hmm. How 'bout tick tock ?

Yeah, tick tock's
a great name.

Tick tock.
Ding, ding, ding !

This is gonna be fun.

[ Ringing ]

Kids, you've done
a great job this week.

Your dad and I were talking,

And we decided that you're
ready for a real pet.

Thanks, mom.
Pet, pet !

Dad !
Daddy !

Hey, y'all,
look at this !

Wow !
What a cool fish !

Bubbles, bubbles !

That's a great name
for him, butter.
We'll call him bubbles.

Boy, is he cool.

[ Grunts, panting ]

Hey, pb&j, what's up ?

We know what kind
of pet we want.

- A fish ?
- Not just any fish, dad.

We want this fish.
Fishy !

Hello, otters.
Hey, ootsie.

Hey, bootsie.
Poodle-ay.

We're here to pick up
our new pet.
There's our little fish now.

Isn't he just adorable ?
You mean--

- He's your fish ?
- We've even picked out
a name.

You're gonna love this.
Tell them, ootsie.

No, you tell them,
bootsie.

We're gonna call him
fish !
Fish !

Well, gotta run.
Toodles.

- Ohh !
- Come on now.

I know you're disappointed,
but there are other fish
in the lake.

But we don't want
other fish, dad.

[ Jelly, peanut ]
we want bubbles.

It's been three
whole days,

And we still haven't found
a pet anywhere near
as good as bubbles.

We'll never find one,
peanut.

[ motor humming ]
hmm ?

- Hey, ootsie.
- Hey, bootsie.
How's fish ?

How's who ?
How's what ?

You know, fish,
your new pet bass.

Oh, yeah, the fish.
Haven't seen him
in days.

But don't worry.
Our butler feeds him.

Now I'm totally bummed.

Yeah, me too.
Me "thee."

[ splashing ]
ooh, cut it out,
peanut !

I'm not doing anything.
Aah !
[ splashing ]

Stop squirting me,
jelly.
I didn't do it.

Hey !

- bubbles !
- what's he doing here ?

[ Purrs ]

Come on ! He's trying
to tell us something.

Daddy ! Mama !
Come here, quick !

What's going on
out here ?

Bubbles is back !
Bubbles.

You mean ootsie
and bootsie's fish ?

Yeah, I think he wants
to live with us.

[ Purring ]

Now, pb&j,
that fish still belongs
to ootsie and bootsie.

Even if ootsie and bootsie don't
give a flip about bubbles ?

Now, peanut,
you don't know that.

I bet they're worried sick
about him.

I guess we need
to take him back,
don't we ?

- What do you think ?
- Okay, we'll take him back
first thing tomorrow.

Even though we
totally love him.

Love bubbles.

At least we get to spend
one night with you, bubbles.

I wish you could live
with us forever.

We love you too,
bubbles.

Ready ?
Lift, two, three, four.

Feel the burn.

I hope you haven't
come to play.

Because we're busy
exercising.

You two are exercising ?

Well, not exactly.

We just bought
a power poodlesizer 6340.

Twice as good
as the 3170.

It does all the work.
We just watch.

And boy,
are we exhausted.
Now, what did you want ?

We've come
to return something.

- What's that ?
- It's bubbles.

I mean, fish.
Remember, your fish ?

He came to our house
last night.

We didn't even know
he was gone.

But thanks
for bringing him back.
Bye-bye.

Good-bye, bubbles.
We'll miss you.
Bubbles.

We better put him back
in his bowl.

Did you tell
the butler to clean out
that fishbowl yet ?

You're the one who spilled
the soap bubbles in it.

You know, ootsie ?

Having this pet isn't as fun
as I thought it would be.
You're right, bootsie.

Anybody want a fish ?

[ All ]
bubbles !

So, munchy, that's the story
of how we got bubbles.

I love that story.

Makes me really want to
figure out how to get mom
to let me have a pet.

- I know how
to figure it out.
- How ?

- Noodle dance !
- Pets I like,
but dancing, no way.

♪♪

♪ noodle
use your noodle ♪

♪ noodle
do the noodle dance ♪♪

I've got it !

Let's signal a ufo
and have it fly
to munchy's yard.

the space aliens can use
their convincer ray
on munchy's mom...

to convince her
to give him a pet.

Great idea, jelly.
But how do you signal a ufo ?
No clue.

I know !
Let's find a fish
as cool as bubbles.

as cool as bubbles ?
oh, yeah.
there isn't one.

Hey, what if I
got a practice pet
like you guys did ?

Then I can show my mom
I'm ready for a real pet.

- Great thinkin', munchy.
- Can I borrow tick tock ?

Brrp !

Hi, munchy.
What you got ?

It's my pet clock,
timmy the timer.

I did great with tick tock,
so my mom let me get him.

Uh... He's great,
munchy.

He's perfect for me.
He's easy to carry.

He has a nice face,
and he's always on time.

[ all laughing ]
[ munchy ]
