Down at Fraggle Rock.

Sprocket, I've just gotten aroundto
fixing up this old porch chair.

-[panting]-Now on
warm afternoons like this,

when I can sit on the
porch, read my newspaper,

and keep an eye
on Shimmelfinney.

Oh, it's gonna be terrific!

I'll go get my
newspaperand give it a try.

[Sprocket barks]

I can't tell you how longl've
wanted a porch chair.

Now here it is,
and it's all mine.

[snores]

Sprocket.

You're sleeping in my new chair.

-That... It isn't
fair.-[snoring continues]

No one, Sprocket...

No one could accuse
me of being selfish.

But this is my chair, on
my porch, in my house,

and I want to sit on it!

Oh, wait till my friends
seethe surprise I have for 'em.

Ah, now, where did
those grapes go?

They were here yesterday.

Aha!

The Grapes of Generosity.

Huh! Funny how I found these

right after Mokey read
usthe legend about 'em.

According to Mokey's old book, the
Grapes of Generosity magically appear

to those who really need 'em.

Oh, but that's silly.

Why, the Grapes of
Generositymake a Fraggle generous,

and I'm already generous.

In fact, now I'll take some of these
homeand surprise all my friends with them.

I'll just make
sure they're ripe.

[lips smacking] Mmm!
Mmm-mmm. Wow.

Those are the best-tasting
thingsin the Rock.

Wembley and Red and Mokey and Booberare
gonna gorg out on these. [chuckles]

[lips smacking] Mmm!

Oh, I could eat every
grape in this cave, but I won't.

Oh, I could eat every
grape in this cave, but I won't.

I wanna share. Oh, wait
till I give these to my friends.

Why, I'll say...

♪ Well, if I had a kangaroo ♪

♪ You know whatl would
choose to do for you ♪

♪ I'd give it all to you ♪

♪ Because the
Grapes of Generosity ♪

♪ Are overflowing
down into my shoe ♪

Hi, little cave pals.

[both laughing]

♪ And if I had a blue kazoo ♪

♪ You know whatl would
choose to do for you ♪

♪ Choose to do ♪

♪ I'd give it all to you ♪

♪ All to you ♪

♪ Because the
Grapes of Generosity ♪

[chewing] Mmm! Boy,
these are really good!

Mm-hmm!

♪ And if I found
a chicken stew ♪

♪ You knowwhat I would

♪ Choose to do ♪

♪ Give it all to you ♪

♪ All to you ♪
♪ All to you ♪

Mmm, boy!

I'm taking these little
beautieshome with me.

Mmm, mmm. Mmm, boy! Mmm.

Oh, good! [chuckles]

I made it all the way here with the
grapeswithout running into anyone.

Oh, wait a minute.

Why, huh, that makes it sound
likel don't wanna share them.

Untrue. Why, I'm really looking
forwardto sharing these grapes.

Gobo? Gobo. Oh, oh,
Gobo, have you seen Red?

-Uh, who's Red?-What?

Oh, Red! Ha!

Uh, nope, nope,
haven't seen her.

-Oh, okay. Bye.-Mm-hmm.

Oh, that's peculiar.

Why didn't I offer
Mokey some grapes?

Aw, well... I'll be glad to share
them, right after I eat a few more.

Aw, well... I'll be glad to share
them, right after I eat a few more.

[grunts, chomping] Mmm.

Hey, Gobo! [chuckles]

Hey, Gobo, you wanna goto the
Messing Around Cave with me?

Uh, no. No. Uh, why would I wanna
goto the Messing Around Cave?

To mess around. What else would
youdo in the Messing Around Cave?

Oh. Uh, no. You go messing
aroundby yourself, Wembley.

[stutters] I'm not in the mood.

It's no fun to mess
around alone, Gobo.

Well, sure it is. Now, go
on. Have fun. Skedaddle.

-All right. I'll try.-[chuckles]

[Gobo] Yeah.

Oh, gee.

I should have told Wembleyabout
my Grapes of Generosity.

Yeah, it's kind of weird
feeling selfishabout something

that's supposed to
make you feel generous.

Well, just goes to show you

how much I needall these
Grapes of Generosity, I guess.

[chuckles] Mmm.

[lips smacking] Ooh,
these are sure good.

[Mokey] Gobo? Gobo, are you still there?
[Mokey] Gobo? Gobo, are you still there?

Oh, no. It's Mokey. Uh...

Gobo, are you sure
thatyou haven't seen Red?

Because she saidshe
needed to see you. Uh...

Well, I haven't been here a lotof
the day, so I probably missed her.

Uh, Gobo... Uh, where
did you get that hat?

Hat? Hat? Oh, hat! Oh, yes.

Well, [stuttering] I made it.

-[gasps] Really?-Hmm.

That is very attractive.
I mean, it's... it's unique.

Remind meto get the
pattern from you, okay?

-Oh, sure.-Well, I've
gotta find Red. Bye.

Uh, bye. Oh.

Phew! Boy, that was close.

Oh, this is dumb. Why didn't
I just share them with her?

Well, it'd be easier to just
go aheadand be generous.

-[Red] Gobo!-[gasps]

Hey, Gobo, I gotta see you.

Oh, no. Now it's Red.

[gasps] I know.

I'll hide the Grapes of Generosityin
my rock-climbing trophy.

Oh, there you are.
Oh, there you are.

[clears throat]Why, Red,
my Fraggle. Ha! Come on in.

Thanks, Gobo. Listen,
I've got a favor to ask you.

Why, sure, Red. Anything.

You name it and it's yours.

Well, I'm organizingan
exhibit on athletic excellence

for the annual Jock
and Jockesses Picnic.

Oh, you're perfect
for the job, Red.

So, I was wondering if I could
borrowyour rock-climbing trophy?

What?

Your rock-climbing trophy.

What rock-climbing trophy?

-Huh? That
rock-climbing trophy.-Oh?

The one you won
from me, remember?

I just wanna
borrow it for the day.

No!

What do you mean, "no"?

I... I mean not yes.

Negative. You cannot borrow
my rock-climbing trophy.

Gobo, you're the most
selfish Fraggle I know!

I don't care.

Hmph. Well, then, if I can't
borrowyour rock-climbing trophy,

I'll win it back.

I'm a better rock climber than youany day.
I'm a better rock climber than youany day.

And the Jock and Jockesses Picnicis
the perfect place to prove it. [grunts]

[sighs] What's wrong with
me? Why didn't I just say,

"Red, here's the trophy,
and while we're at it,

why not sharesome of
these Grapes of Generosity

that are inside it?"

[sighs]

Because they're too
good to share, that's why.

Oh, now I've really
got to hide them.

-Gobo. Gobo.-[crashing sound]

-Argh!-Oh. Oh.

Gobo, what are
you doing up there?

Uh, up here? Uh,
uh, am I up here?

Oh! Oh, yes, I am up
here.[laughs nervously]

[stutters] I'm dusting. Funny
how dusty a cave can get.

Oh, yeah, I guess it is.

Uh, listen, Gobo, I'm
still looking for Red.

The Jock and Jockesses
Picnicis about to begin,

and she's supposed to
blowthe starting whistle.

Uh, she left a little while ago.
Uh, she left a little while ago.

Oh, phooey! I'll
just keep looking.

Uh, speaking ofthe
Grapes of Generosity...

Uh... pardon?

The Grapes of Generosity.

We weren't speaking of them.

Oh, well, we should have been.

I've been thinking about that silly
legendyou were telling me about. Uh...

Are you sure that if a Fraggleeats
those grapes he becomes generous?

Well, that's what the book said.

A Fraggle becomes very generous,
unless, of course, he eats them alone

and doesn't share
them with his friends.

What happens then?

Well, not only doeshe
not become generous,

he becomes weightless. Bye.

Weightless? [scoffs]

Now, that is totally,
absolutely ridiculous.

Whoa! Oh, but maybe not.

Whoa.

[Matt] Dear Nephew Gobo,
today I discovered a place

[Matt] Dear Nephew Gobo,
today I discovered a place

that demonstrates how
generousthe silly creatures really are.

When you first enter these places,
you are given a shiny silver wagon

of your very own.

Everyone has one.

And then you get to fill up your
wagonwith all sorts of things.

I got a lot of round
metal cylinders

and some very
interesting cold bricks.

Ooh. Ah. Oh. [chuckles]

[blowing]

I finally realized why the silly
creatureswere being so generous.

They have the
Grapes of Generosity.

Oh! [lips smacking]

Sometimes I fault the silly
creaturesfor their behavior...

Thank you very much.

But their unselfishness
knows no bounds.

Love, your Uncle
Travelling Matt.

Ooh! [screaming]

Well, Uncle Matt, if the silly
creaturesare eating Grapes of Generosity,

I hope they're sharing them,

because I don't
recommendeating them by yourself.

Because I don't
recommendeating them by yourself.

[sighs]

Oh, I wonder
whenweightlessness wears off.

[gasps] Oh, I wonder if
weightlessness wears off.

-[Large Marvin] Come on!-Oh,
no. Someone's out in the tunnel.

I hope they're not coming here.

[panting] Come on,
Rumple, hurry up.

We'll miss the Jocks
and Jockesses Picnic.

Oh, we can't do
that, Large Marvin.

The Jocks and Jockessesneed
your gazelle-like athletic prowess.

Me?

[softly] Gazelle-like
athletic prowess.[scoffs]

Oh, there's Gobo's room.
Let's see if he's there.

Gazelle-like prowess?

What?

Mmm! [chomping]

Hello? Anybody home?

Here are your
Jocks and Jockesses.

Oh, he's not here. Maybe
he's already at the picnic.

Oh, good. Let's go
to the picnic and eat.

-[stuttering] I mean,
see. See.-Right.

[chuckles]

Oh, this is so humiliating.

I've just gotta get me some weight.
I've just gotta get me some weight.

[sighs]

Hey, Gobo, I've been downat
the Messing Around Cave.

You know what I was doing?
Messing around. [laughs] It was great.

Gobo, are you okay?

Hi, Wembley. [chuckles]

[stammering] But, Gobo!
There's a boulder on your lap!

There is? Oh, yes.
I mean, there is.

Um... [stuttering]Why is
there a boulder on your lap?

-Why?-Uh-huh.

Uh, maybe this cave
isin a falling-rock zone.

Oh, Gobo, [stuttering]if
that rock had fallen on you,

you'd be a smudge of
Fraggle glopon the floor.

[both laughing]

-Yeah.-Yeah. Yeah.

[sighs] Okay,
Wembley, I admit it.

I, uh... I put this
boulder on my lap.

Yeah, I like to have a boulder
on my lapfrom time to time.

Uh-huh? Uh, Gobo,
do you feel okay?

Well, of course,
I feel wonderful...

No.

-No. No, no, no, no.-No.
I feel awful, Wembley.

I don't know what's wrong with
me. I'm coming down with something.

I don't know what's wrong with
me. I'm coming down with something.

Well, you should be in
bedunder nice warm blankets.

Ah, Wembley,
what a dumb, silly...

-Oh, dumb.-...wonderful idea.

What?

I'll get in bed under
nice... heavy blankets.

Yeah, well, good.

Let me help youget
that boulder off your lap.

-But first...-Uh-huh?

[stutters] But first,
I need my guitar.

-Well, it's... Oh,
it's right there.-Huh?

-Pick.-Huh?

Guitar pick.

Yeah, I dropped it... in the
tunnel, right outside the cave door.

Uh, would you get it for
mewhile I get into bed?

Sure, Gobo. If you say so. Huh!

-[groans]-[boulder thuds]

Whoa!

[Gobo] Don't worryif it
takes some time to find it.

[grunts]

One little guitar pick is hard
to spoton a floor full of pebbles.

-[Wembley] I found
it!-Whoa. What?

Oh. [grunts]You mean I
actually dropped it out there?

- Well, you said you did, Gobo.-[groans]
- Well, you said you did, Gobo.-[groans]

Ta-da! Here it is,
Gobo! [chuckling]

[sighs]

Oh, good, Wembley.

Just... Why don't you put it
overnext to my guitar for safekeeping.

Oh, okay.

Whoa!

Gobo, Gobo, are you
okay? Are you in pain?

No, no, no, no. Just
for heaven's sake,

-go get me another
blanket...-A blanket.

-Or four or five.-Yeah. Yeah.

[groaning]

Why wasn't I generouswith
the Grapes of Generosity?

[groans]

There, that's eight blankets. It
must be awfully heavy. [sighs]

-Oh, look, Gobo's
here after all. Hi.-Hi.

Hey, we just come from the...
from the Jocks and Jockesses Picnic.

-We've been sent as
emisses...-Messengers.

Yeah, them, too.

And Red Fraggle has challenged
youto a rock-climbing contest, Gobo.

Oh, no.

No, it's no use. Gobo can't
come, he's not feeling well.

No, it's no use. Gobo can't
come, he's not feeling well.

You gotta come, Gobo.

Red says if you don't show
up, you'll lose by default.

-That does it.-What?
What are you gonna do?

Wembley, hand me my boulder.

[grunting] I'm
going to that picnic.

-Oh, yeah, my kind of
Fraggle.-[Gobo groaning]

-Yeah.-All right.

[Fraggles clamoring]

[Fraggle] Come on! We're
winning! Come on! Pull! Pull!

Attention! Attention!

You will note, though,
Jocks and Jockesses,

that although I sent out my
emissarieswith the challenge some time ago,

Gobo Fraggle
has not yet arrived.

[Fraggle] That's
right. Yeah, that's right.

I think it is safe to
saythat he is not coming!

[all cheering and clamoring]

He says that he's gonna...

He says he'll beat
youwhile carrying a boulder.

Oh, yeah? Well, where is he?

I'll give him to the count
of ten.[clears throat]

[Red] One...
- Two...-[groans]

three, four... three, four...

-I'm not gonna
make it.-...five, six...

seven, eight, nine, ten!

Whoa.

That does it.

Gobo Fraggle obviously doesn't
wantto hand over the trophy.

-[Fraggle] That's right.-He's
hiding somewhere in disgrace.

That's not true!

[Gobo groaning]

Rumple is right,

I'm not hiding in disgrace.

I'm floating on this ceiling.

[Sprocket howling]

Oh, please,
Sprocket, don't howl.

[howling]

Oh, I know you like sleepingin
my new chair, Sprocket.

-But it's my chair.-[howls]

-I recovered it.-[howls]

-I repainted it.-[howls]

It's mine.

[howling]

[panting] Gobo! Gobo!

Oh, he's not in here
either. Where could he be?

[Gobo] I'm here, Wembley.

Gobo, uh, uh, I heard
your voice. Where are you?

Gobo, uh, uh, I heard
your voice. Where are you?

I'm here.

Oh, I get it. It's the
old game.[chuckles]

Uh, uh, um... Am I
getting... warmer?

[Gobo] You're freezing, Wembley.

Oh... [gasps]

Gobo! How'd you get up there?

I crawled on the ceilingall
the way from the Great Hall.

Oh. [scoffs] That's silly, Gobo.
No one can crawl on the ceiling.

[sighs] Okay,
Wembley. I'll explain.

But you have to
promise not to laugh.

Oh, I won't laugh, Gobo. I
wouldn't laugh at you, I promise.

I found some Grapes of Generosity,
and I ate them without sharing.

-[chuckles]-So...
now I'm weightless.

[laughing]

Stop laughing!

Who's laughing? I'm not
laughing.[continues laughing]

Oh, give me a break. I know
I did a stupid, selfish thing.

And sooner or later,
everyone will find out.

- [whooshing sound]-Talk about humiliated.
- [whooshing sound]-Talk about humiliated.

Aw, don't worry. No one
will humiliate my friend Gobo.

Ah, thank you, Wembley.

Well, I could tie a string on your
toeand drag you around like a balloon!

Oh, Gobo, Gobo.
Oh, sorry, uh, uh...

[groans] You're a
laugh riot, Wembley.

Hello! Gobo, Wembley!
You'll never guess what.

Oh, don't worry,
Gobo. I'll hold you down.

He'll never know what happened.

Hi, guys, you'll never guess.

What won't we guess, Rumple?

It's crazy. I told Red she didn't
deserveyour rock-climbing trophy,

so now she's trying
to provethat she does.

Well, what's crazy about that?

She's trying to climbto
the top of the Great Hall.

-What?-Huh?

-No one's ever done that.-Mm-mm.

Well, Red won't be the first,
I'll tell you that for nothing.

Well, don't be too
sure. She's good.

Maybe. But she's also stuck.

-[grunting]-Oh, boy!

Just because she
wants this crazy trophy.

Well, come on, Wembley. We
better see what's gone wrong.

-But, Gobo, you're [whispers]
weightless.-You're what?

-[Wembley grunts]-Wembley.

-What?-Just keep
holding me down.

Holding your what?

[Fraggles clamoring]

Wow! Isn't that
great? Look at her!

Oh, look. There's Red.

That's fantastic. Look, Gobo,
she's way up there. See her?

Hi, Red. What's happening?

Gobo, I'm proving that I deserve
to berock-climbing champion.

-That's what.-Okay by me.

Yeah.

Well, except, uh, at the
moment, I have a little problem.

Well, except, uh, at the
moment, I have a little problem.

Uh, most of this
ledge has fallen away.

So, uh, what are
you gonna do now?

Yeah, Miss Champion.
Maybe Gobo can save you.

-[Fraggles laughing]-I
don't need saving!

She doesn't need saving.

And besides, if
you tried to help,

Fraggles would see
you were weightless.

-Wembley, that's
not the point.-Oh.

Uh, I'll tell you, though, I
could use a hand from someone.

-Well, I could give
you a hand, Red.-No.

Gobo give me a hand?

You wouldn't even loan
meyour rock-climbing trophy.

Why would you do something
generouslike give me a hand?

-[Wembley
grunting]-That does it.

Red, you're right.

I'm gonna float up
to you with the trophy.

No, Gobo, no. What are you...

-[Fraggles clamoring]-What's
that supposed to mean?

It means that I atethe Grapes
of Generosity without sharing.

-[Fraggles gasping]-It
means that...

I've been... selfish.

[Fraggles clamoring]
[Fraggles clamoring]

-It certainly means that
I'm weightless.-Uh-huh.

-Give me a boost,
Wembley.-[grunts]

-Whoa.-If you say so, Gobo.

One... -Two...-Two...
- Three!-Three!

-I really feel terrible
about... Oof!-[gasps]

this because, well, I wanted
to be generous, and I wasn't.

Well, you've climbed higherthan
I ever have in the Great Hall,

-so, I think you deserve
this trophy, Red.-Oh!

Well, gee, thanks, Gobo.

There is just one
thingyou should know, Red.

Well, what's that?

Uh, being generous gives
a Fragglehis weight back.

-Whoa!-[all gasping]

I got you, Gobo.

[all cheering]

[all chomping]

And so, when I foundthe
Grapes of Generosity,

I thought, "Now we'll
all be more generous."

But when I ate them, they were so
good, I couldn't bear to part with them.

-I became less
generous.-And weightless.

- Mm-hmm.[all] Mmm.
- Mm-hmm.[all] Mmm.

Those grapes teach
generositythe hard way, don't they?

-[all] Mm-hmm.-Boy, I'll say.

Yeah, but they sure do teach it.

You know, could I give
you the shirt off my back?

-You already have,
Wembley.-Oh, yeah. [laughs]

Everything I have is anybody's.

[all] Oh!

Hey, look, there's one grape
left. Go ahead, Boober, you have it.

-Oh, I couldn't.
Uh...-Yeah, yeah, come on!

-You have it, Red.-Yeah,
Red, give it a go.

Oh, no, no, thank you. Mokey,
you go ahead and have it.

-Yeah, Mokey.-Please,
please, I'm full.

-Wembley, you have
it.-Me? Oh, no, no, no.

-Yeah, yeah, Wembley, you're
the smallest.-Gobo. Gobo.

[all arguing]

Oh, thank you, Sprocket.

I know you like sharingthe
new porch chair with me.

Well, I try to be
generous to a fault.

I'm certainly being generousto
a sheepdog. [laughing]

[growling]

Well, it was only right for meto
learn to share the chair with you.

After all, you're sharing
your fleas with me.

[laughing] Here,
let me get that.
