Just a few more, Corduroy.
And all our chores will be
finished.
What's a chore?
Whee!
Work.
But is this work?
Kind of.
But it doesn't have to be.
[Giggling]
Get on.
This must be a trampoline.
I've always wanted to jump on a
trampoline.
[Both laughing]
Lisa, something's falling from
the sky.
Huh?
It's snowing.
Wow, come on, Corduroy.
We can get a better look on the
fire escape.
Where's the fire?
No, fire, Mom, snow!
[Car horn honking]
Winter is here.
Winter.
Winter is the coldest season
of the year.
It comes after autumn and before
spring.
Are you cold?
Uh-uh.
We'll have to find some
mittens and boots for you,
Corduroy.
And a coat, too.
I think some of my old stuff
will fit you.
Watch this.
Oh, snow is cold.
All snowflakes are unique.
They never look exactly alike.
They're beautiful.
Too bad snow just tastes like
water.
Wouldn't it be great if...
instead of snow falling from the
sky we had ice cream cones?
There would be hundreds of
different flavours.
Chocolate chip, bubble gum,
toffee cream, raspberry ripple.
Mmm.
Mmm.
Know what, Corduroy?
All this snow is giving me a
craving for...
Ice cream?
Corduroy would like some,
too, please.
Wouldn't you, Corduroy?
CORDUROY, THINKING: Yes,
please.
Ice cream in winter?
That's a first.
Well, you might as well check
the freezer.
Hmm, let's see.
Ice cubes, ugh, frozen peas and
corn, pizza dough, leftover
stew, oh, no!
Mom, there's no ice cream in the
freezer.
Could we go to the store and buy
some?
I'm busy right now.
There's all this ironing to do.
But I can go get it.
The sweet shop is just down the
street.
And I'll only get cones.
It'll be our afternoon snack.
Oh, I forgot to go to the
bank today.
How about using your allowance?
I... uh... I spent all my
allowance, Mom.
Already?
But I gave you that money
yesterday.
Well, um...
I...
[Giggling]
I take it your allowance went
to buying that fancy hair clip.
Lisa, really.
It's winter.
A cup of hot cocoa makes more
sense.
But there's always time for
ice cream.
Please, Mom?
Well, since you spent all
your allowance already...
Yes?
I guess you'll have to just
use a little initiative.
Huh?
Lisa, if you want ice cream,
you'll have to figure out a way
to earn the money to pay for it
yourself.
How am I going to earn enough
money to buy ice cream?
I'm too young to babysit.
[Bell ringing]
And I don't have a bike, so I
can't make deliveries.
[Giggling]
Look, Lisa, I made a
snowball.
Whoa!
Ooh!
[Giggling]
Here, I'll help you up.
Oh, snow is cold.
But it's soft, too.
Hey, Corduroy, you're making
snow angels.
See?
Snow angels!
Whoa, the snow is fun to play
in, but it's slippery to walk
on.
That's it!
I can earn money by shovelling
snow.
I'm sure we can ask our
neighbours if they'd like their
sidewalks and steps cleaned off.
Hi, Pandro.
Hey, Lisa, hi, Corduroy.
May we borrow a shovel?
Sure, I guess.
What do you need a shovel for?
Shovelling snow.
Corduroy and I are going to earn
money for ice cream.
That's a good idea.
Ice cream isn't free, but snow
cones are.
Get it?
Snow cones?
[Giggling]
Shovel, shovel.
Ah, here.
Perfect size for you, too.
Thanks.
Say, how about I be your
first customer?
It can be pretty icy out on the
front steps.
And I wouldn't want any of the
tenants to fall, deal?
Deal.
Hey!
Huh?
[Giggling]

[Both giggling]

[Bell ringing]
[Sighing]
All done.
Excellent.
[Bell ringing]
I love winter, but I've never
liked shovellin' snow.
Thanks.
Here you are.
Thank you.
You know what?
I think I've earned enough money
to buy an ice cream cone for me
and my teddy bear Corduroy.
You've come to the right
place.
We've got lots of flavours.
Chocolate marshmallows,
strawberry cheesecake, French
vanilla, caramel crunch,
pistachio.
]] That must be the North Pole.
I've always wanted to visit the
North Pole.
The North Pole must be very
cold or else all this ice cream
would melt.
Ice cream cones, ice cream
sundaes, ice cream floats.
Mmm.
This must be a dream.
I'm dreaming of ice cream.
How does that look?
Delicious.
Hold onto this, please, while
I scoop up your other cone.
Oh, Corduroy, I can taste the
ice cream already.
]] We worked really hard for
this.
We sure did.
You know what?
I believe you actually have
enough money for two triple
scoop ice cream cones.
Really?
We can have two cones with three
scoops of ice cream or...
Ta-da!
We have three cones with two
scoops of ice cream.
All this ice cream?
How did you get the money?
I used initiative just like
you asked.
Corduroy and I cleared the snow
off people's steps and
sidewalks.
We did our apartment building,
Moppy's mom's restaurant, the
grocery store across the street,
the--
I'm proud of you, Lisa.
You worked so hard.
You must be very tired.
Nope, I'm not tired.
I'm hungry for ice cream.
We got this cone as a surprise
for you, Mom.
Unless...
Unless what?
Unless you still think it's
weird to want to eat ice cream
in the winter.
[Giggling]
I see now that ice cream is
for any time.
Thanks for treating your old
Mom.
]] The ice cream is melting,
Lisa.
Well, we worked hard earning
the money to pay for these ice
cream cones.
Now we'd better get working on
eating them.
[All giggling]
Mmm.
]] Mmm.
What more could a bear ask for?

[Neighing]
Ooh, it's very blue.
Don't you want to use other
paint colours?
I like blue.
[Sighing]
Uh, Corduroy, rain does not
come from the sun, rain comes
from the clouds.
It's not rain.
The sun's sad.
LISA: Is everything okay?
Stay and paint with me, Lisa?
I have school today.
Don't you want to play with
me?
Don't you like hearing about
what I've learned in school?
I guess.
And Buckaroo and Rosetta are
here.
So you won't feel lonely.
I guess.
But I still really miss you when
you're gone.
Don't be blue.
It's a perfect day.
CORDUROY: Who's that?
LISA: Oh, that's the mailman.
He delivers cards and letters
all over the city.
CORDUROY: He looks happy.
Maybe it's his birthday and
someone sent him a card.
Ooh, la, la.
Perhaps someone sent him a
valentine.
Or maybe someone's just
writing him to say hey.
Do only special people get
mail?
Everyone can get mail.
But sometimes, getting mail can
make you feel, you know,
special.
[Sighing]
I'll be right back.
Right under the kitchen sink.
It's not leaking badly.
I put a bowl there to catch the
drips, but if you could check it
out.
Yes, I'm working from home
today.
This morning will be great.
Thanks, Pandro, bye.
"To Corduroy."
This should help cheer him up.
[Buzzing]
That'll be Moppy and his dad
waiting for you in the lobby.
What's that?
Just something so Corduroy
doesn't feel so lonely when I'm
not here.
Good idea.
But you'd better get a move on.
You'll be late for school.
Are you going now?
Uh-huh, but I'll be back from
school before you know it.
Mwah!
Have a great day.
Bye, Lisa.
[Sniffling]
Rosetta and I are here.
We'll play with ya.
Oui, bien sûr, but of course.
We can listen to some music.
There's lots of storybooks,
Corduroy.
Okay, then, how about hide and
seek?
Hide and seek is a game I am
very good at.
Je suis formidable.
Okay, I'll be it, so you
start hiding.
Hey, what's this?
Corduroy, it's for you.
For me?
[Whispering]: I think it's
from Lisa.
Ah.
What is it you are waiting for?
Open it.
Oh, allow me to try.
What is it?
This must be a special
delivery from Lisa.
I've always wanted a special
delivery.
Know what?
I'm going to make a card for
Lisa, so she can have a special
delivery, too.
Et voilà.
[Neighing]
Where should we put it?
Where does the mailman put
the mail?
Well, uh, there's a whole
bunch of mail boxes downstairs.
Magnifique!

Hi, Mrs. Chao.
Good morning.
I think Lisa forgot her toys.
They were in the elevator.
But...
Last I looked they were right
there.
It's not as if they can walk out
on their own.
Thanks, Mrs. Chao.
You're welcome.
Now you stay put, all right,
Corduroy?
I don't want Lisa thinking her
own mom can't take care of her
toys.
CORDUROY, THINKING: I hope
Lisa likes her surprise.
Hold on a second, Lisa.
I just want to check the mail.
Hurry, please.
I want to see Corduroy.

It's your lucky day.
You've got mail.
LISA: Corduroy, I'm home!
I love your picture.
I don't feel so sad anymore.
Your special delivery helped, so
did Buckaroo and Rosetta.
