Hold still.

Bzz! Bzz! Bzz!

Bzz! Bzz! Bzz!


[warm cheerful music]

[Vida laughing]

Bye, Dad! Bye, Papa!
Looking good!

[creepy] Have fun

in Sweetwood! [laughs]

Bye, honey!

Bye-bye,

Vida-badaisy!

[laughs] And done!
You look very witchy!
Hmm, I like your hat better.
[magical music]
So, Popcorn,

are you ready for the

Sweetwood Halloween Carnival?

Abzz-solutely!

Hey, nice alien costume,

Popcorn!

I'm a bee!
You know, that really stung.

[laughs and gasps] Come on,

we can pass by the carnival

on the way to the clinic!
[chattering]
[tense eerie music]
Wow, pretty impressive!
Impressive?
This is incredible!
[energetic cheery music]
Vida, can we carve a-
[gasps] Ooh!
is that juice?
Yummy!
[warm upbeat music]
[Fergie beatboxing]
Wow, look at these costumes!
Everyone looks just-

[object twangs]

[tense suspenseful music]

Huh?
[shocked music flourish]
AH!!
Eeeeeeeeee!!
AH!

[trembling clicking]

[defeated music flourish]

Oh, ah, sorry about that.

I just finished setting

up the corn maze,


and now this scarecrow

keeps tipping over.

Whoa! Great job, Otto!
This maze looks...
Well, a-maze-ing!
Don'tcha think, Popcorn?

[trembling clicking]

[downcast music flourish]


Vida:

Uh, Popcorn?

Uh, sure! Looks great!
Ready to go, Vida?

Actually, ah, could I trouble

you to help me out?


I got a little

scrape on my paw.

From the maze?

No, [laughs] just

from setting it up.

Not to worry, Otto,

I'll have you feeling

better in , , !

Aw, thanks Vida.
Sure thing!
[warm cheerful music]
And now...
♪ You're all better
♪ You're all done

♪ Now go out and

have some fun! ♪

[Vida giggling]

Well, we better

get to the clinic.

Bye!

Sure do wish we could

stay longer at the, ah,


creepy corn maze I'm

not scared of at all,


but duty calls,

so, you know,

no corn maze for us.
Ever.
Okay. See ya later, Otto.
Goodbye!
[playful music flourish]
Eeeeeeeee!
You okay, Popcorn?

You seem a little

jumpy and jittery,

like you're nervous.
Nervous?
I'm not nervous!
I'm less nervous than ever!
And I'm never nervous!

So I'm even less

than ever nervous,


which is even less

than never nervous!

Well, great!
But fun fact:

hamsters are

nervous by nature!


You've evolved that way to

keep you safe from danger.

Danger?!
Where?!
See what I mean?

There's no danger here,

Popcorn.

All right, shall we?
Let's!

[Vida giggling]

How many patients do

we have today, Popcorn?

Just one!

Baby Mouse is coming

in for a check-up!

Oh good!
With fewer patients

we'll have more time at

the Halloween Carnival!

But only one?
No, no, no!
How could this be?

How come everyone is so

healthy all of a sudden?


Have we done too good

a job taking care of-


Vida:
Popcorn.

-D'ah!


You seem like you have

a lot of jumpy energy.

Are you feeling nervous?
What? No.
What makes you think that?

Oh, [laughs] just, ah,

watering the plants.

[nervous laughing]

Papa Mouse:
Hello?

-Ah!

[Vida gasps]

[warm music flourish]

[Baby Mouse giggles]

Hi, Papa Mouse!
Hi, Baby Mouse!
Come right this way.
[gentle music flourish]
[Baby Mouse babbling]
[warm gentle music]
Mmhmm.
[Baby Mouse babbling]
[squeals and giggles]
[gentle playful music]

Vida:

Mmhmm.

[thermometer beeps]
Beep! [laughs]
My diagnosis is:

Baby Mouse is as

well as can be!

Oh, that's good news.

Unless you have any

questions for me,

we can wrap this up and-
Did I hear "wrap this up?"
As in, "it's over?"
What about the x-ray?
[gentle playful music]

Baby Mouse doesn't

need an x-ray.


She doesn't need a

manicure either,


but that doesn't mean

we can't give her one!

[Baby Mouse laughing]
Um, anyway,

Baby Mouse, you're all

done with your check-up!


I'll see you both

in six months.

Stay healthy!
[Baby Mouse babbling]
Thanks, Vida!
Aw, mwah!

It's finally time to go

to the Halloween Carnival!

Well...
Uh, what about the, uh...
the lollipops?
What about them?
I should reorganize them.
Let's see now...
There, done!
Oh, well, I need to sweep!
You did that yesterday.

Well, [laughs] I

should make tea!

We don't need any.

Right. But the ceiling

fan needs cleaning!


Uh, we don't have

a ceiling fan.


[gasps] Then we need to

get one and clean it!

Um...
[gentle curious music]
Popcorn?

Nine, ten...

-Whoa! Popcorn!

Eleven, twelve.

You usually love the

Halloween Carnival,


but today it seems

like you don't wanna go.

How come?
Oh, fine. I admit it.

I'm afraid of the

spooky corn maze, okay?!

It makes me nervous.
Aw, that's okay.

What about it makes

you feel afraid?

I could get lost in there!

Or someone could leap

out and startle me!

Or what if the corn gets me?
Well first of all,
corn can't "get you."
It's just a plant.
But still, I just-

I don't like surprises,

I like order!


Why do you think I

carry a clipboard?


Ah, well, it makes

sense to feel nervous


when you don't know

what to expect.

Really?
Of course.

But if you ask questions

before you go someplace new,


it can help you

feel less nervous.

Questions?
But what kinda questions?
And who should I ask?

See? You're getting

the hang of it already.

Come on.

I'll explain on the way back

to the Halloween Carnival.

Okay.

the corn maze a try.


[shyly] As long as

you'll go in with me.


Of course I will,

you little silly hamster!


Well then what are

we waiting for?!

[warm gentle music]
Don't be nervous, Vida.
Corn can't get you.
[giggles] Okay.

It's just a plant.

It's just a plant.

Eeeeee!
It's just a plant!
[giggles] Yep!
[warm gentle music]
[Popcorn laughing]
[warm gentle music]
Wow!
[laughing]

[warm gentle music]

[laughing]

That was great!
Best corn maze ever!
Can we go again?
[laughing] Sure!

Oh, e-excuse me, P-Popcorn!

I was just leaving! Bye!

Sunny, wait!

Are you by any chance a little

nervous about the corn maze?

Nervous? I'm n-never nervous!

And I'm less nervous

now than ever,

w-which is never.
[curious music flourish]
Tell ya what.
If you want,

I can answer aaany question

you have about the maze.

Really?
Yeah! And if you wanna go in,

I'll hold your hand

the whole time.

Also, corn can't get you.
Well, I know that.
It's just a plant.
[defeated music flourish]
Let's do this, Popcorn!

Popcorn:

Nice clipboard, by the way!


Sunny:

Thanks!

Well, Otto,

seems like you ended up making

Popcorn's favourite part

of the Halloween Carnival.
Um, Otto?
Ah!

Oh, [laughs] sorry

about that, Vida.


Now it'll stand up

straight. [laughs]

[Vida laughs and whimpers]

Well, care to take a stroll

through the maze, Otto?

[gasps] I'd love to!

I'd be glad for a chance

to stretch my legs.


[curious music flourish]

[eyes tink]

[gentle music]
[gentle playful music]
Bye, Papa! Bye, Dad!
Bye-bye, apple dumpling!
Have fun in Sweetwood!
[magical music]
Vida!
Oh, I'm so glad I found you!
Hi, Otto!
Were you looking for me?

Well, I was on my way

to pick some apples.

Well, then I tripped,
and then I fell!

And oh, then,

well, look.

He got a boo-boo.
Oh no!
Come to the clinic

and we'll have ya

feelin' better in , , !

Oh. Thanks, Vida!

Popcorn, can you get Fergie

some baskets, please?

On it!

What do you need

them for, Fergie?

Well it's apple season!

So I'm going to my

favourite orchard

Wanna come with?

♪ Tart Granny Smiths

♪ McIntosh, Gala,

♪ Apples, oh, apples,

how I love to eat 'em!


♪ Apple-pickin' time is

my favourite season!


♪ Warm apple muffins with

smooth apple butter


♪ Apple sauce, apple juice,

my heart's a-flutter!


♪ Apples, oh, apples,

♪ Apple-picking time is

♪ Apples they smell, look

They're so fun to munch!

♪ They make me wanna sing!
♪ Apples are perfect

Ah.
So, are you coming?
Sorry, Fergie.

We have patients

to see today.


And I'm more of a

pineapple guy myself.


Huh. Are those a

type of apple?


You know what?

Tell me more later.

Gotta go!

And thanks for

the baskets!


Bye!

-Buh-bye!

Have fun!

We're here! Come on!
[energetic upbeat music]

I love apples!
[gasps] Let's eat some now!

Ah, the moment I've

been waiting for!

[warm gentle music]

Mm!

-So good!


Yum!

-Mmmhmm!

Mmmmm.
Huh?
[downcast music flourish]

Uh, Fergie, did you

get a rotten apple?


[garbled] No, this

apple is delicious!


[garbled] But my mouth

is really itchy.

...and tho'sth my hands!

Kipp:

Hmm.

Oh no.

Pineappllleee!
Oh! [laughs] Hi everyone!

I was just digging

into this pineapple.


It's a fine fruit,

the pineapple.

It can be so many things:

Pineapple smoothie,

pineapple salsa,

pineapple ice cream-
[Koa clears throat]
Um, Popcorn?
[Fergie groaning]
Oh, [laughs] of course!
No time for pineapple talk!
Come in, come in!
First, say "aaaaaah."
Ahhhh.
All red, a little swollen.
Let's see your hands.

Popcorn, could I

please have my-

Magnifying glass!
Hmm, bumpy and red!
Can I also see my-
Thermometer!
[thermometer beeping]

Vida:

No fever.


Have you been playing in

tall grass or weeds today?

No.
Hmm. Get any bug bites today?
No.
Huh. Have you eaten recently?

[garbled] Yeah, I just had a few

bites of this delicious apple!


And that's when my

mouth got itchy.

Hmm, I see.

I think you might have

an apple allergy, Fergie.


[garbled] Does that mean

I like apples a lot?

Because yes I do!
It doesn't.

A food allergy is when your body

doesn't like something you eat,


and it thinks it needs

to protect you from it.


A lot of times, that

means you feel sick

or uncomfortable.
Or itchy and swollen?
Yeah.

But I eat apples

all the time.


Why doesn't my body

like them now?


Well, sometimes allergies

just happen as you grow up.


So something you used

to eat all the time


can suddenly

cause an allergy.

And, fun fact:

some allergic reactions can go

away after just a few hours,


if you stay away from the

thing that made them happen.

Well that's good!

But does that mean I have

to stop eating apples?

Yeah. I'm sorry, Fergie.

I know that's really

disappointing for you.


I can't eat my favourite

fruit ever again?

No apple dumplings.
No apple snicker-doodles?

No apple snicker-doodles

ice cream?

Ugh!
Fergie has an allergy.
To apples!
Oh, I have an allergy too!
I'm allergic to corn!

Really? What do

you do about it?


Well, I can't eat

anything with corn in it.

[downbeat music flourish]

[sighs] I think I

just wanna go home.


I don't know what

I'm gonna do now


that I can't have

my favourite thing.

Oh.
Wait! Fergie,

what are some of your

other favourite things?

Um, I don't know.
I guess I like books.
Whoo.
A really good bouncy ball.
Mm.
Purple flowers.
Mhm.
Playing a kazoo?
[Zigzag gasps]
And I love paper airplanes.
Fancy.

But I can't pick

those out of a tree.

See you later.

I wish there was

something we could do

to make Fergie feel better!
Hmm.
I know!

Fergie can't pick apples

out of a tree anymore,

but what about other things?!

A Fergie's Favourite

Things Tree!

That's an incredible idea!

Let's all gather Fergie's

favourite things


and meet at the little

tree near her house.


Yay!

-Yeah, let's do this!

[kazoo tooting]

[Zigzag laughing]

[zooming]
Ooh!
[warm pleasant music]

[laughs] We did it!

Hooray, hooray!

-Ooh!


Hooray!

-Love it!

Something's missing...
Oh, I know!

Fergie needs a new

favourite fruit!


Awesome!

-Woohoo!


Great idea!

-Yum!


Come on, let's

go get Fergie!

[gentle playful music]
[gasps] Hey! Fergie,

your mouth and hands aren't

all red and bumpy anymore!

Yeah, I'm not itchy anymore.

But I'm still not

in the mood to play.

That's okay,

but can we show you

something real quick?

Oh, uh, sure.
[Fergie gasps]

[warm hopeful music flourish]

Is this...?
[giggles] Yes, it's a...

Fergie's Favourite

Wow! I can't believe

you all did this for me!

♪ Ooh a kazoo, I could

play that for hours


♪ Friends who

♪ with things

special to me


♪ I can't believe I have

Oh, I thought, uh,

maybe this pineapple


could be your new

favourite fruit!


It does have

apple in the name!

Wanna try?
[Fergie chomps and gulps]
I love it!
It's pine-apple-icious!

You know, today turned

out to be pretty sweet.


Even though I can't

have apples anymore,


there are lots of things I

love that I can still have!


Thanks for reminding me,

everyone.


And if you decide pineapple

is your new favourite fruit,


I know a few

ways to eat it.

Oh yeah?
Oh h* h*, yeah!
Let's see...
Pineapple upside down cake,
pineapple pizza!

Pineapple fried rice.
