[ giggles ]

- Hey, Doc.
- Hi, Doc.

Hi, guys.

This is Emmy's new toy pony.

I'm borrowing her
while Emmy's at piano practice.

I'm Joni,
the show-stopping pony.

- Wow!
- Baa-eautiful!

But why would you want
to stop the show?

I really liked it.

Being a showstopper means
she's an awesome performer.

Well, I'm awesome.

I must be
a showstopper, too.

Watch how Stuffy
stops the show.

Or starts the show.

Uh, stops the show
while starting the show.

Ah, never mind.
Watch this.

On second thought,

I'll leave the show-stopping
to you.

I love your sparkles.

They really show off
your baa-eautiful mane.

Thanks. I wouldn't be Joni
the show-stopping pony

without it.

Tutu, light on your feet,
and you trot on your tippy-toes.

You must be
a ballerina!

A baa-rilliant one.
[ giggles ]

Oh, well, I don't
like to show off,

but I do love
to perform!

Oh, if I got to perform
with a ballerina,

that would make my day!

What do you say we put on
a lamb-and-pony show?

Perform with a real
show pony?

Oh, I'd lovity
love love to.

And since you're both pink,
you can call it Pinkapalooza.

BOTH: Love it!

You said that
at the same time.

BOTH: I know.
Jinx. Jinx!

Aw, and you're already
like two peas in a pod.

Showstoppers
stick together.

Like pink in a wink.

That sounded better
in my head.

What do you two
need for the show?

Props, stagehands,
and practice.

I'll get props.

I'd let you use
my stage hands,

but I just have
regular old snowman ones.

Stagehands aren't
hands hands.

They're people, or toys,
that help stage performers

during a show.

In that case,
my snowman hands

are your snowman hands.

Unless they melt.

Count this hippo in.

Helping's my middle name.

Being a stagehand
is fun.

Sugar, stagehands help,
they don't hoop.

Right. Helping now.

As soon as I get up.

Okay, stagehands,

we're ready for
our first trick.

Places, please.

Stagehands
are in place.

Ready, showstopper?

Ready, showstopper.

And now, for Joni
and Lambie's first trick,

the hula-baloo.

Whee!
Hula-baloo!

Joni, are you okay?

Joni!

I'm fine, I just tripped
on my mane a little.

Your mane
is pretty long.

Um, can you
make it shorter

so you don't keep
tripping on it?

Sure, if I twist
this knob on my head.

But no way do I want to.

Anyway, it's no big deal.

Us show ponies trip
all the time.

Are you sure you're okay
with your mane that long?

As sure as the spotlight
that shines on me at show time.

There's nothing
to worry about,

except our next trick.

Come on, Lambie.
[ giggles ]

And now, Joni and Lambie's
Pinkapalooza parasol dance.

[ both giggling ]

Kick, two, three, four,
twirl, two, three, four.

And twirl,
two, three, four.

Whoa!

Oh, no. Joni!

- Are you okay?
- That looked bad.

Oh. Ow.

Don't try
to move, sugar.

You need a check-up stat.

The doc is in.

♪ Time for your check-up,
time for your check-up ♪

♪ I'm gonna check your ears,
check your eyes ♪

♪ Find out how much
you've grown ♪

♪ Time for your check-up ♪

♪ I'm gonna listen
to your heartbeat ♪

♪ Fix you up
ready to go ♪

♪ Time for your check-up ♪

♪ It's okay
if you giggle ♪

♪ This will only
tickle a little ♪

♪ Time for your check-up,
time for your check-up ♪

You're a healthy
pony, Joni.

Everything looks good.

So now, let's take
a look at this leg.

I'm right here
if you get scared.

Thanks, Lambie.

Joni, I have
a diagnosis.

You have a case of
hoof-and-mane-itis.

Let me prance over to
the Big Book of Boo-boos.

Hoof-and-mane-itis?

That sounds awful.

Don't worry.

We just need to get
your hoof untangled.

Please be careful
with my beautiful mane.

Oh, don't worry.

Doc's the bestest
and the gentlest.

There. Your
hoof-and-mane-itis
is cured.

Yay! Oh, thanks, Doc.

My leg feels
so free.

[ laughs ]

Come on, guys.

We've got a lamb
and pony show to practice for.

Hang on a minute
there, sugar.

The doc hasn't cleared you
for pony prancing yet.

We have to talk about
making your mane shorter,

so you don't get your hoof
caught in it again.

Oh, Doc, you can't
make it shorter.

I'm Joni,
the show-stopping pony.

My mane is everything.

Without it,
I'm just Joni.

Joni, you'll be
a show-stopping pony

with your mane
long or short.

You're a great performer
no matter what.

Please, come back
to the exam table

so I can shorten
your mane.

But I don't want to.

Okay.

Huh.

Please let me
keep my mane long, Doc.

I know I can perform
without tripping.

You've already
tripped twice.

I don't want you
to get hurt again.

No, I can do it.
I'll show you.

- DOC: Be careful.
- [ toys exclaiming ]

CHILLY: You're gonna
hurt yourself.

No, I'm not.

ALL: Whew!

Okay, that was
a good one.

But you're still
making us nervous.

I'm sweatin'
snowflakes over here.

I'm fine.

See? Not tripping.

Look, Doc, one hoof.

See? I didn't trip.

You have to let me
do the show, Doc,

with my long mane.

If you think you can
do it and not get hurt,

- then okay, I guess.
- Oh, thanks, Doc.

Please be careful.

Ready, showstopper?

Ready, showstopper.

JONI:
Now, for the big trick.

No! Lambie!

Lambie!

JONI: Are you okay?

I don't know.

We need to get you
a check-up stat.

Your heart's
beating fast,

but that's normal,
considering what just happened.

How do you feel?

Like I got the stuffing
knocked out of me.

I feel terrible, Lambie.

I didn't mean
for you to get hurt.

It's okay.

Performers fall
all the time, right?

I know, but you fell
because of me.

No rips, no stains,
and no missing stuffing.

Lambie, you're fine,

but I'm gonna prescribe
a kiss and a cuddle anyway.

See, Joni?
I'm fine.

Now, let's get
our lamb and pony on.

I'm really happy
you're okay,

but I'm quittin'
the show.

What? You can't quit.

I can't do it
without you.

You can't be
a showstopper

if you're actually
stopping the show,
right?

Performing
is what you do.

Thanks, but
I have to quit.

I hurt Lambie.
It's the right thing to do.

Oh, but Joni,
accidents happen.

Lambie's right.

We can keep this accident
from happening again

by shortening your mane.

Then you can still
do the show safely.

I... I can't.

But why?

You'll still be Joni
the show-stopping pony

without the mane.

I am worried
about that.

But the real reason is...

I've never made
my mane shorter before,

and I'm scared.
What if it hurts?

Hey, lots of kids
are scared to get
their first haircut.

- They are?
- Sure.

After your first haircut,

you'll see it doesn't
hurt at all,

and it'll grow back.

We'll all be
right here with you.

Okay. I wanna do
the lamb and pony show

with my friend Lambie...
safely.

Doc, you may
shorten my mane.

That's it.

at all.

Do you wanna see
how it looks?

Go on, sugar.

[ gasps ]
I love it!

- [ all chattering excitedly ]
- HALLIE: Fabulous.

Thanks, Doc.
And thanks, Lambie.

And everyone.

You're welcome.

We have a lamb
and pony show to do!

And now, for the McStuffins
First Ever...

Pinkapalooza!

- On with the show!
- All right!

BOTH: Ready,
showstopper?

- [ laughing ]
- BOTH: Jinx.

Yay!

All right!

That was amazing!

Now that was
a real showstopper.

DOC: The dragon guarded
the golden fleece day and night.

He never even slept.

When Jason found the cave,

the dragon tried
to scare him away

with his fiery breath
and scary roar.

ALL: Ooh!

Jason wasn't scared.

He sang a magic lullaby
that made the dragon fall
asleep.

As the dragon slept,
Jason took the fleece.

So Jason went home,

and the dragon lived
happily ever after,

because he could
finally sleep,

and not worry about
guarding the fleece.

The end.

Was I good?

What a great job
telling a story

from Greek mythillagilla...

Greek mythology.

It's a special kind of story
that people started telling

a long time ago.

Well, whatever it's called,
it was great.

My favorite part is when
you roar.

Roar!

But, you know, good,
like you do it.

I hope I can
roar that good tomorrow.

I've never had to get up
and tell a story

in front of
the whole class before.

Maybe we should
practice it again.

You two sugar cubes
have practiced

that presentation
so much,

when you do it
at school tomorrow,

it's gonna be easy-peasy
stringy cheesy.

I better check
my to-do list again.

Backdrops colored,
check.

Practice, check.

Took my bath,
washed my hair,

and even scrubbed
behind my ears

so I look my best.

Girl, you look good!

I'd say that's a big
checkity-check

to lookin' your best.

If the leading lady
needs to look her best

to have a good presentation,

doesn't her co-star need
the old scrub-a-dub-dub too?

[ giggles ]
You're right, Stuffy.

We should get you
cleaned up

so you look
extra good.

Just relax.
Let the brush do the work.

[ purring ]

Ah, that feels good.

That's the spot.

I carry a lot of tension
in my wings.

I can't believe tomorrow

[ muffled ]
is my first time

in your class.

The first time that I...
ooh, ha ha!

Tickly toes!

Where was I?

Oh, the first time
the world will see

my name in crayon!
After this, I--

MOM: Bedtime, Doc.

I won't just be
a dragon anymore.

I'll be Stuffy, star of
elementary school presentations!

Kids across the school
will hear about me,

- but what if I mess up?
- MOM: Doc?

Sh! Mom's coming.
Go stuffed.

Are you ready
for school tomorrow?

I think so.

You should get
some sleep now.

When you're well-rested,
you can do your best.

- Good night, Doc.
- Good night, Mom.

Good night, everybody.

- Sleep tight.
- Nighty-night.

Sweet dreams, Doc.

Twelve hours, 52 minutes
to school time.

Twelve hours, 52 minutes
till I'm in front of

Doc's whole entire class
and... oh, no!

Now it's only 12 hours,

- Stuffy, it's time to sleep.
- But I'm not sleepy.

You've practiced your best,
and you look your best.

So all that's left
is to sleep your best

so you can do
your best.

You're right.

Need to sleep so I can
do my best for Doc.

Night, Lambie.

Sleep tight, Hallie.
Sweet dreams, Squeakers.

See ya in the morning,
Chilly my man.

Stuffy, hush.

Oh. Sorry.
Good night, Doc.

[ hysterical laughter ]

Oh, sorry.
I just remembered that time

Lambie came out
to do her ballet,

but she didn't realize she had
a lollipop stuck to her leg.

Hey, now that
you're all awake,

maybe instead of sleeping,
we can play a game?

I have a game idea.

On the count of three,
everybody go to sleep,

and forget about
my lollipop leg!

One, two, three.

That was fun.
Who won?

- HALLIE: Oh, Stuffy!
- CHILLY: Oh!

You feelin' okay,
Stuffy?

Oh, yeah,
I'm feelin' great.

And extra super duper
wide awake.

We got a big day
tomorrow,

and I'm way tired.

So you need
to get sleepy.

I know what always
helps me get sleepy.

Countin' sheep.

Good idea.

Hm.

- Uh... one.
- [ screaming ]

[ all exclaiming ]

Stuffy, I thought
you were counting sheep.

I was, but I only got
as far as one,

because Lambie's
the only sheep I know.

No, you're not supposed
to count real sheep.

Counting sheep just means
you close your eyes,

picture sheep in your mind,
and count them

until you get sleepy,
like this.

One, two, oops!

Come on, Stuffy.

If we don't get
to sleep soon,

we might be too tired for
the presentation in the morning.

Then I'll try to do
my dragon roar,

and it'll be, like...

Roar!
[ snores ]

I'll never let
that happen.

How do I make sure that
I never let that happen?

While you get sleepy,
you can be super quiet

so I can sleep.

Won't make a peep.

Dragon's honor.

If I were in the dollhouse,

I could sleepy without
worrying about waking anyone

or being too loud.

Sh!

[ squeaking ]

[ groans quietly ]

Phew!

[ squeaking ]

Doh! Sh!

Now I can work on
getting sleepy

without waking Doc.

How can I get to sleep?

I got it! Some exercise
will wear me out

and make me sleepy.

[ straining ]
I think it's working.

Awesome!
I yawned.

Now I must be
ready to sleep.

Some nice, comfy PJ's
will put me

right in the mood
for some sleep.

Sweet!

Sleepyland,
here I come.

[ yelling ]

What was that?

Sounded like
a rowdy rhino

raisin' a ruckus.

Stuffy.

Oh, Doc, thank goodness
you're here.

Someone turned out
the lights.

Then I was attacked
by these silky pajamas.

But why were you
out here in the dollhouse?

You should be in bed
getting some sleep.

Oh, Doc.

♪ I know there's
something we can do ♪

No matter how much I try,

I just can't go
to sleep tonight.

That's why I was
out in the dollhouse.

I didn't wanna keep
you awake

while I was trying so hard
not to be awake.

I think this snoozing
trouble calls for a check-up.

Come on, Hallie.

Let's move our patient
to the bathroom

so the others
can sleep.

Your heartbeat
is a little faster than normal.

How's your tummy feel?

Plushy.

Soft.

Like a nice breathable
cotton blend.

[ giggles ]

No. How does it feel
inside your tummy?

Oh, right.

My tummy is a little
tickly inside.

Anything else?

My brain keeps thinking
about the presentation tomorrow.

Every time I close my eyes,

I imagine what it will
be like

with all those kids
staring at me.

Ooh! And thinking about that
makes my tummy extra tickly.

I have a diagnosis.

The Big Book of Boo-boos
clocking in for the late shift.

Worrying about
our presentation tomorrow

has given you a case of
butterfly tummy-osis.

And I know a lot
about that one,

- because I get it, too.
- Really?

Yep. Whenever I have
something big and exciting

and maybe a little scary
to do,

I get a touch of
butterfly tummy-osis.

Do you have it now?

Oh, yeah.

When I think about having
to tell that story

in front of my whole
class tomorrow,

my tummy does
the loop-da-loops.

But when you have it,
how do you get to sleep?

You can try taking
your mind off the things
that are worrying you.

I tried that.
It isn't easy.

It sure isn't.

But there are things
you can do to help.

Like what, Doc?

Sometimes a lullaby
can help.

Just like in
that mythology story

when Jason sang
the dragon a lullaby,

I have a song that helps me
get to sleep, too.

[ snoring ]

Sleep tight, Stuffy.

- Good night, Hallie.
- Sweet dreams, Doc.

[ stretching ]
Good morning, Doc.

I'm up and ready
to rock this presentation.

Looks like you slept well.

Not just well.

It was the doubly Stuffily
super great sleep

of a soon-to-be
elementary school

famous dragon!

How did you sleep?

You be the judge.

Roar!!

Whoa! That was the roar
of a wide-awake

and ready-to-do-
a-great presentation girl.

All right, Stuffy.

The big moment
is almost here.

You ready to do your part?

I sure am, Doc.

Thanks for helping me
get to sleep.

I'm glad I can be
your dragon co-star.

You're the best
dragon actor I know.

[ all saying good-bye ]

- HALLIE: Go, girl!
- LAMBIE: Go, Stuffy, go!
