Hey, let me tell you about my friends.
They're my best friends, the zoosies.
They can talk, dance and sing. They can
do about anything. Pitch Week always
plays it cool to Mr. Squiggles. Science
rules. Num nums looks before she leaps.
Chunka style and loves to eat. And
I'm Frankie. Frankie and the Zu Zu
Pets Our adventures are the very best Who
knows what'll happen next Living with the
Zu Zus Frankie and the Zu Zu
Pets
And listen up, you gardeners out there.
Don't forget our annual biggest pumpkin
growing contest. This year, the 1st
place trophy will be awarded by any
town's very own celebrity, Channel
Gardening.
I know the zoos want me to enter the
contest. You know it's a waste of time,
cranky pample moose. I've seen your
garden. It's more like a desert.
So why bother signing up?I'm going to
grow the biggest pumpkin. Toodles. My
garden is not a desert.
Frankie! Whoa! Did you sign up for the
biggest pumpkin contest?HuhDid you?Didyou?
Yes, but I'm not sure I should have.
You know how bad I am at growing stuff.
What are you talking about?You're an
awesome gardener! That's not how I
remember it, Pipsqueak.
Huh
Huh
That was just 10 or 20 times. Could
happen to anyone. Yeah! Come on, Frankie.
You're gonna be great at pumpkin-ing.
After all, didn't you grow these?They're
doing great! These are artificial
flowers.
I guess that's why they're so chewy to
eat. Yeah. You're gonna be a great
pumpkin grower, 'cause we're gonna help.
Yay! Thanks, guys.
Okay, let's do this.
Um, that's not scientifically possible.
I got a good feeling about this. I think
we're going to win first, second, and
third place. How can we do all that with
only one pumpkin?Please don't be negative
around the pumpkin, Pipsqueak. How come
her pumpkin seed is bigger than mine?
Eh
Daddy picked a great time to give the
gardeners a holiday. Dirt is disgusting.
It's... It's dirty!
Look! It's growing! See,
Frankie?You are a good pumpkin grower. It
is only the first day. The potential for
failure is still quite...
Quite unlikely.
Phew. A scientist's life is a
lonely one. Red,
what is wrong with this pumpkin?
Be orange! How's your crop
coming, fellow gardener?You're
spying on me. There are laws about that,
you know. Hmm, I don't believe
tomatoes are allowed in the competition.
I'll have you know, this is a very rare
Romanian red pumpkin. They grow to be the
biggest in the world.
Now beat it, pumpkin peekers. A
tomato. Daddy!
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Classical music helps make a classy
pumpkin. What?
Squiggles told me. Yep, it's science.
Music, science.
As you can see, the pumpkin is growing
well. Using my scientific
formula, giving the pumpkin the right
amount of sunlight and water, combined
with the prescribed amount of Dr.
Flamholtz's pumpkin food, you should have
a prize-winning pumpkin in a matter of
weeks. Weeks?Daddy flew you in all the
way from Vienna for this?I want it to
be big now! No, this
is incorrect! It is very dangerous to use!
Too much at once.
It will cause a big boom,
as you can see. If that stains,
you're paying for it.
What an awesome pumpkin. If
you were a tree, you'd be a Redwood.
They're really big.
Ohh If you were a bird, you'd be an
eagle. Eagles.
If you were a flower, you'd be a big red
rose. Ow! Thorns. If you were
a planet, you'd be Jupiter!
Because Jupiter's the biggest! Again,
science. We figured. If you were
a seed log, you'd be a really big one.
Anybody got a seed log on them?
Grow, you lazy...
I hate gardening. Daddy!
Daddy! We're gonna win! Boo-yah! Yeah,
Yeah because we are Team
Pumpkin. Ha! It took a team of you to
grow that puny thing?
This is a prize-winning pumpkin.
As a hamster of science, I can only
conclude that that thing is evil and will
destroy us all!
Where did that even come from?
If I can't win that trophy, nobody can.
This is highly evangelo.
Cease is about your paycheck. Let's smash
this baby swing.
Goodbye, pumpkin. And Frankie's
pumpkin dreams.
Oh, come on.
Whoa! It's biggest
pumpkin day! Let's get this big boy to
the fair! Wait, wasn't there a giant
pumpkin here yesterday?Oh, no,
oh, no, oh, no, no
Missing something?Hmm,
I wonder if Madge had anything to do with
this. We've got to find that pumpkin!
I can't believe I finally grow something
and it escapes! There
it is! It's
destroying everything in its path!
But how can we be sure that's our
pumpkin?Just sayin'.
Oh, thanks. We gotta stop
this thing before it wrecks the whole
town! I know a shortcut. That way!
Oh, no! It's headed for that
kitten! Little kitten, save yourself!
Phew. What a relief. I'm sure
glad that's over. Retreat.
Pumpkin at 12:00. Take evasive
action.
I'm not sure that poopy likes us anymore.
Hold on.
Now that's some serious hang time.
I'm pretty sure this is a tomato,
but it looks like you've had a rough day.
So the award for the biggest pumpkin
goes to...
Ohh
I really can't stand those guys.
Do we get points for most dramatic
entrance?
Now that's a big pumpkin! And it's even
orange. I, Channel
celebrity, present you with the first
place trophy.
You did it! No, we
did it. With that little help from
Science... Science
is our friend.
Where did that even come from?Daddy!
There's nothing like a card game on a
rainy day. I'm not sure this counts as a
card game. Easy.
Easy. Easy. There's
nothing easy about this.
Oops. Maybe
we should try another game. Well, make it
quick. I'm getting bored. And when I get
bored, I get dangerous.
Somebody do something quick. Frankie?
Is that Idea Face?Frankie has
Idea Face. It looks like once again,
mild-mannered Frankie Pamplemoose will
have to transform into... Supergirl!
Yes! Blame Supergirl is the best.
And once again, I will be Supergirl's
sidekick. Terrified with cuddles.
Together, we'll battle with villainous
villains, such as...
Ca-cam, such as... That's your cue.
And why do we always have to be the bad
guys?I'm too likable for that. Being
evil, it's just not me. Would you like me
to play the role of Dr. Thermostat again?
HmmYeah, maybe Squiggles shouldn't be a
bad guy again. Maybe I should be your
sidekick. What?No way!
I can be a sidekick, too. Oh, me too!
Whoa, whoa, whoa. We can't all be
sidekicks, right, Frankie?Superheroes
do kind of need villains. How about
Madge?She's not too nice. Make her the
villain.
Okay. But let's just pretend she's here.
Now, if you all want to be sidekicks, we
need to hold auditions.
State your name and superpower. He's got
the g*ns and oodles of charm. It's
the Incredible Hunk. No one can resist
his stunning good looks. Check this out.
Able to stop Travis with a single flex.
Wow.
Ooh, so Hunkular.
How will that help you fight crime?
Observe. The mad magic
strike again. We got every last
coloring book. Hey,
did we swipe any markers?Oops. You
like pretty pictures, huhHow's this?
There! He's rugged and
cute at the same time. How is that
possible?Great job, Chunk! Yeah,
but what happens if you look in a mirror?
HuhOh! Hey there, good-looking!
He hypnocharmed himself! Let's go!
Forget about them. We have each other.
Yes. Hey! It works for real!
Interesting. Uh,
next! Uh.. Oh,
um, hello, everyone. I'm
Ninja Nitwit. You're calling yourself
Ninja Knitwit?Yeah, 'cause I'm a master
of the knitting needles. Just, uh, watch.
Frankie, have you guys seen my knitting
needle?
Never mind.
Wow. That was...
wow. Uh, thank you.
Oh, and there's other stuff, too. Um,
like this. Stop right there!
Please. Yeah?How you gonna make us?
With Ninja Stars! Ya!
Ya! It's not
even our color! When it comes to justice,
this knitter is no quitter! What if you
run out of yarn?Hey, this
sweater has no back!
What have I done?Oh, no!
They've got me somehow! Aw,
that's okay, Nums. Almost had him. Good
stuff. Next.
Greetings, Sidekick Review Board. I am
Eyewear Mishap Man. I can sh**t lasers
from my face. Backstory.
I was in my laboratory building a laser
pointer when I was struck by lightning.
And a radioactive bird pecked me.
And then I accidentally cleaned my
glasses with magic potions. No!
This incredibly normal series of events
changed me. And now my eyes sh**t
lasers. I can cook the whole turkey in 20
minutes. Um, can you also fight
crime?Oh, it is time to
fight crime. Or you can finish the
turkey. Whoa!
Mad?Race for justice! Uh,
we're over here. Thank you. It's
time to put an end to your thieving.
Nice one, genius. Now no one gets a
coloring book. Ohhwell,
let that be a lesson, too. The
lasers are cool, Squig, but can you see
it all in those glasses?Full disclosure.
I can't see a single thing, not even
shapes.
Move! Sorry! Whoops!
That was also accidental. Whoa!
Watch out! Don't look at me!
Whoa! Okay. Thanks,for coming out. But
it's clear you all need some work. So for
now, let's just leave the sidekicking to
me, huhHey, why don't you have to
audition?It's only fair. Even I
can see that.
Okay. Prepare to be dazzled by...
Turbo the Cuddle! Intergalactic
cowgirl from the future! Meaning you can
do what, exactly?Thought you'd never ask.
I'm master of the lunar laxo. It
never misses. And
rider of Star Catcher, my invisible
rocket horse. She's the stealthiest steed
of the galaxy. But we can still see you
riding it. Don't overthink it.
Hey, no one gets away from Turbo
McCuddles. What if the bandits have
scissors?And what if you hop on your
horse backwards by mistake?Why would I
hop-- Aw, come on! Wait,
Starcaster! No! Whoa!
Whoa! Aw. Now who needs some work?
You can't just come in
here... Guys, can't
we just... How do I fix this?I never get
to have any fun
Frankie will decide who her sidekick is.
Frankie, I be the ferocious pirate
Girlbeard. I captured Zooper Girl while
ye were bickering. I'm going to reveal
her secret identity. Ha ha ha!
Did you hear that?We have to rescue
Supergirl. I bet whoever pulls it off
will be Zooper Girl's new sidekick. Help!
Honey, please don't stand on the couch.
I've been captured by Pirate's dad. Oh,
well, that's different then. Carry on.
Help! We're coming,
Supergirl! Uh, you'll never get past the
stuffy-infested waters.
I got this. Honey,
is it just me, or is this water getting
hot?
Anyone in front of me is as good as
hypnotized.
Yow! Anyone else want to try?I don't want
to get my yarn wet. I could lose my
glasses in there. Here, watch
how a pro does it.
We're incoming, Supergirls!
Yes! Cannons.
So that's how the pros do it. Very
educational. Oh, no! I'm doomed!
If only I had a team of sidekicks who
use teamwork, like, as a team.
Supergirl's right! Yep, she's
doomed. She's talking about the
teamwork. Come on, sidekicks. Let's do
it!
No! I'll hit 'em with my cannon cozies!
Slob the neck with those wretches.
Delightful feather pattern. Might I have
a closer look?Oh, that
was unintentional, but I'll take it.
Prepare yourselves to be skewered. How do
you prepare for that?
Well, that didn't work. In that case,
it's time to work it. Hey there, Captain.
Get a load of these cannons. Bam! The
sword is shiny. Look away, Incredible
Hug. Too late. Hello,
beautiful. Faces, Zeus,
you're no match. Hey!
Ew, gross. Let go. Uh, uh, uh
Now's the chance to free Supergirl. Allow
me. Eyes, do your thing.
Whoa! Uh, still in danger here! Ninja
nitwit! Nitwit to catch her! I can't! I'm
out of yarn! Use what's left of my
lasso! I thought heroes could... Ugh
Fine, have it. But I'll be keeping
Supergirl as me treasure. Is that right?
Go, Supergirl! You can
do it! Victory!
All of us, together, as a team.
Yay! Feels like there's a lesson here.
Yeah, like, why have one amazing sidekick
when you can have four?Why are we always
the sidekicks?I want to be a superhero.
Let's have auditions.
Oh, here we go
again.
