- I couldn't believe my luck when I found
this coupon outside my door this morning.
- This coupon is good
for one free hypnosis.
Quits candy, fly without
fear, cure clumsiness.
- Oh!
(Lisa crashes)
Sorry.
- Yeah.
- Sorry, oh, my bad.
Oh hey, does this come in orange?
- Oh, you're such a klutz.
- I know, but not for long.
Come on.
- Hmm, a cure for clumsiness.
No problem, I am a master hypnotist.
I can help cure any bad habit,
or my name is not Sigmund Scrambler.
- Scrambler...
Are you related to Annie Scrambler?
- Nope.
Now, the brain is a fascinating thing.
It sits inside your head.
It's where your thoughts come from.
It forms your personality,
guides your behavior.
It tells you to breathe. (breathes deeply)
- Yeah, this seems like
it might take a while,
so I'm just gonna look at some hats.
Okay?
- Kay.
- And let's see, where was I?
Oh yes, you are getting sleepy.
- I am getting sleepy.
- You are getting very sleepy.
- I am getting very sleepy.
- Uncle Sigmund, we've got her now.
- Your meddling ways have
brought my niece pains.
When I snap my fingers,
you two will switch brains.
- That's funny.
He said he didn't know Annie Scrambler.
(snaps fingers)
(electricity crackles)
- It worked!
I've stolen her body!
- Hey, what's going on here?
This doesn't look like hypnosis to me.
- Well, we were just...
- You better start talking, mister.
- Hi Jessica!
There is a simple explanation.
What's over there?
(Jessica yelps)
- [Jessica] Lisa, where are you going?
- What do you mean, where
am I going? I'm right here.
- Lisa?
Is that you?
- Of course it's me,
except why am I wearing
these strange clothes and (sniffs)
why do I smell like scrambled eggs?
- [Jessica] Uh-oh.
You might wanna take a
look at your reflection.
- Hey, you guys!
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Come on, yeah, feel the power
Feel the power, feel the
power, yo and plug it in
It's electric, Electric Company

- And when I got there, he said,
- [Sigmund] When I snap my fingers,
you two will switch brains.
- So Annie Scrambler's
uncle took Lisa's thoughts
and put them in Annie Scrambler's head
and then took Annie Scrambler's thoughts
and put them in Lisa's head.
- That's what I've been
trying to tell you.
- Guys, so I just saw the weirdest thing.
I'm at the bakery down the street, right?
And I see Lisa and she has
this really, really, really
weird hat on and why are we
sitting with Annie Scrambler?
No offense, Annie.
- [Lisa, Jessica, and
Keith] Lisa and Scrambler
switched brains.
- Really?
- Yeah.
- Lisa?
Lisa, are you in there?
- Yes, it's me, it's Lisa, I'm in here!
- Oh, this makes so much
sense with what I just saw!
Okay, so I'm at the bakery, right?
And they're having a huge
sale on whole grain bread
and then I see Lisa,
or who I think is Lisa,
change the G to a B!
- Whole brain bread?
Gross.
- It was not pretty.
- Why were you at the
hypnotist in the first place?
- I thought he could cure my clumsiness.
- But clumsiness is a
part of your personality.
- Yeah, it's part of who you are.
It's like how you're always
happy and nice to people.
- Everybody loves you the way you are.
- I guess, but clumsiness
is my least favorite part
of my personality.
I can't believe I let
Annie Scrambler trick me!
Why would Annie Scrambler do this?
- Hmm, I have a theory about this.
- Good, because I have no good ideas.
What's your theory?
- Annie Scrambler wants
to make Lisa look bad.
- She wants to make everyone hate me!
Ooh, that Scrambler.
- Don't worry, Lisa.
Scrambler won't win.
It's alright, we'll fix this.
Does anyone else smell scrambled eggs?
(Lisa groans)
- First, we need to find Sigmund.
- Oh, Shock, hold on!
- [Lisa] Let me see that.
Live hypnosis demonstration,
P.M., th Street,
Sigmund Scrambler will retrain your brain.
- [Hector] Let's go.
- Ick.
- Ick!
- Sick.
- Ick!
It goes ick, ick, ick
The sound goes ick, ick, ick
The sound goes ick
Flip the switch, it goes click
Without the ick, it sounds sick
Like the tock without tick
Or a jock who isn't quick
So what's the sound that we pick, pick
Ick
It goes ick, ick, ick
The sound goes ick, ick, ick
It goes ick, ick, ick
The sound goes ick
Ick, ick, ick, ick
- I need a pet.
Something strong.
- Hmm, oh, how about a pet brick?
- A brick?
I need something that moves.
- Oh, watch how this cricket moves!
- No, not a cricket.
Something bigger.
- A big, strong pet.
I've got it!
- That's not a pet, that's a pickle.
- (tsks) He's a sensitive pickle.
- What is this, a trick?
- No, this is a trick.
Haha!
Oh.

- Aww!
- It won't come true then.
- Mm.
- [Keith] So wait, what happened so far?
- [Jessica] Let's go shopping!
- [Lisa] No, I wanna get hypnotized!
- [Sigmund] I'm switching your brains.
That's where personality comes from.
Annie, you will have Lisa's personality.
You will be sunny and cheerful and nice.
Lisa, you will have Annie's personality.
You will be sneaky and tricky and mean.
(Annie laughs)
- [Jessica] Lisa, is that you?
- [Lisa] Yes, it's me, Lisa,
but I'm in Annie's body.
Oh no, hey, you guys!
I'm Lisa.
- [Hector] No, you're Annie!
- [Jessica] It's Annie's
body, but Lisa's personality.
- [Keith] Yeah, her personality,
like what Lisa thinks and how
Lisa acts and what Lisa likes.
- [Hector] Why would Annie wanna be Lisa?
- [Keith] I have a theory.
- [All] A theory, a theory.
- [Jessica] You think you know why?
- [Lisa] Tell us your ideas
before I start to cry!
- [Keith] This is my theory,
my thoughts on Annie's game.
She wants to cause some trouble
and make Lisa take the blame.
- [Jessica] Nice theory, Keith.
- [Keith] Thank you.
- [Jessica] We'll find
a way to reverse this.
We'll switch you back.
- [Keith] I found this flyer.
Let's go see Sigmund!
- Yeah, he'll reverse it
- Yeah, he'll reverse it
and make things
- and make things
right again, yay!
- right again, yay!
- And for my next amazing demonstration,
I will need a volunteer.
Anyone?
Quit candy?
Ah?
Conquer cravings?
Cure clumsiness?
Ah, watch out, watch out there.
- That's him, that's him.
Hey!
- Come on people,
this is amazing stuff!
- Hey!
- Hey!
- [Sigmund] Oh no.
- [Hector] Come on!
Yo, stop!
- You are getting very sleepy.
Ah, forget it!
- [Jessica] Whoa, whoa, whoa, stop him!
- [Hector] Hey, stop, man!
Hey, oh, hey, I have an
idea, I have an idea.
- [Sigmund] This way, great!
- Give it up, Sigmund!
There's no way out.
- There's a no Sigmund here
and I'ma no speaka da English.
- Sigmund, did you really
think you could fool us with
the fake Italian accent
and a finger mustache?
- Ah, I was hoping.
- You helped Annie Scrambler
switch bodies with Lisa,
now reverse the hypnosis
and switch them back.
- I can't.
- What?
- What?
Haha, very funny, now come on.
Just say the words,
hocus pocus or whatever,
and put me back to normal!
- I thought you were supposed to be
the one with the sunny personality.
- I'll be sunny when you switch me back.
- I can't reverse a double hypnosis
unless both people
wanna get switched back.
- What if Annie Scrambler doesn't
want to get switched back?
- Then you could be
stuck like this forever.
- Forever?
- But, if you wanna overcome your fears,
or break bad habits, then I am your guy.
Ah?
You?
You?
Big guy with the hat?
No?
Maybe this is not the best time.
- Let me tell you about my friend br.
You see, it sounds like bruh, as in
brain, brag, brake, brave,
break, like break a leg,
bring, brick, right on, brother.
Brush, bro, broken, yeah,
yeah, you're getting it.
If you ever run across a
word that seems really hard
to pronounce but you see a br in it,
then just know that it's bruh, like zebra
or algebra, fabric, heartbreaker,
embrace, or vibrations.
That's my favorite.
Dig it.
Hey, why don't you use your brain on this?
(Music Man scats)
Your brain, your brain, brain, brain

- Alright, we've got a compound word here,
which means we have two words in one.
We start with h, then there's
that A, I combination,
which we know makes the ay
sound, so h, ay, and then urr,
hair, hair!
Hair, buh.
Hairb, urr.

Oh, have you seen my hairbrush?
It's a little tangled up there. (laughs)

We need an idea.
- I got nothing.
- Oh, I can't believe
I am stuck like this.
This can't be reversed?
- I think I have a plan.
My theory is that,
Annie Scrambler did this
to make you look bad, right?
- Mhm.
- Well, what if she makes
you look better than ever?
- [Annie Voiceover] We'll see
what they think of Lisa now.
- Hot dogs!
Hot, oh hiya, Lisa!
- What's up, dog?
I'm taking Art's Hot Dogs
and making Dog's Hot Rats
To get people thinking that I'm or she
is the queen of the brats
Before this whole thing goes too far
I'm gonna mess up the
Art on top of the cart
And make old Artie a star
- Wow, Star Hot Dogs!
Let's eat here!
- Why didn't I think of that?
Hey Lisa, how about a free hot dog?
She's a nice girl, with
a sunny personality
A nice girl, she can do no wrong
She's a dream girl,
the dream is a reality
A girl that makes
you wanna sing a song
- [Camerawoman] A big smile
from the happy couple.
Beautiful.
That's it.
That's gorgeous.
- [Keith] Oh no, she changed
the lovers to the losers!
- [Hector] Uh-oh.
- There we go.
- He loves her.
- I do.
- That's so sweet!
Aww, thanks, Lisa!
- So confusing, everyone still loves Lisa.
Why isn't my plan working?
She's a nice girl, with
a sunny personality
A nice girl, she can do no wrong
She's a dream girl,
the dream is a reality
A girl that makes
you wanna sing a song
- Free mug with your coffee?
We'll see about that.
I'm gonna take your free
mug and turn it into a bug
You think you're so funny

- Enough!
I've had enough of all this happiness.
People are thanking me,
hugging me, giving me hot dogs.
It's disgusting.
They like Lisa more than ever.
I want my body back, do you hear me?
I want my body back now!
(Hector and Lisa cheer)
- Blah, blah, blah, blah,
enough of these pains,
blah, blah, blah, blah,
bodies take back your brains.
(snaps fingers)
(electricity crackles)
- Is that you, Lisa?
Did he reverse the hypnosis?
- He reversed it!
I'm cured!
Oh, I'm me again!
Oh, I'm happy.
- Darn happiness.
- Oh, come on, Annie. Even
you have to be happy that
you're back to your old self again.
- Nice theory, genius,
but don't go thinking
I've learned anything from all of this,
because I can assure you,
I've learned nothing.
Nothing!
- And neither did I.
- I don't think they
learned anything, do you?
- I guess not.
- Nope.
- Y, Y, Y, Y, Y, Y, Y, Y, Y, Y.
What am I gonna do with you?
In a one syllable word, you
make the I sound, fly, cry, try.
In a two syllable word,
you make the E sound,
sunny, happy, money.
In the middle of a word,
you make the eh sound,
gym, bicycle.
Why?
Why try to sound like
all those other letters?
You have your own sound.
The ya sound, like you be you be yourself.
It's gonna be hard,
but you will thank me later.
So in advance, you're welcome.
- My lunch.
Hey, you can't put your bag by my bag.
- Why not?
- Because your lunch bag says my lunch
and my lunch bag says my lunch
and we won't be able to
tell our lunches apart.
- I have an idea.
- This time, I have an idea.
- Now you have the yummy lunch
and I have the crummy one!
Mmm, good idea.
(Felix cries)
- Hey, I'm Mark Ecko.
I'm an artist.
I've always had a ton of energy.
As a kid, I couldn't even sit still.
I drew and painted on
everything, and I still do.
Energy, energy, energy.
It's like a ball bouncing
around inside of me,
from my head to my toes, and the only way
to get it out is to get it out.
It's the spark that makes me go.
Where do you put your energy?
- The I sounds better!
- No, the E!
- Listen.

I can't cr*ck the code to get out.
Help me read this.

- Oh!
Oh, are you alright?
- (giggles) I'm great.
- Really?
Like, I'm confused.
I thought you hated being clumsy.
- I did, but you were right.
Clumsiness is just a
part of my personality.
Huh.
Coconut.
(all laugh)
- Have you been playing
Electric Company games online?
You better be winning points for me.
Of course, you could win
points for anyone else.
Why would you do that when you
can win them for me, Annie Scrambler?
Go to pbskidsgo.org right now.
Go!
- [Hector] Hey guys, it's
Hector from The Electric Company
with a few words about the Pranksters.
(Pranksters laugh maniacally)
The Pranksters aren't all that different
from The Electric Company.
Some of them have special
word powers, just like we do,
but they only use their
powers to pull pranks.
- A bunch of cowards!
- [Hector] There's Annie Scrambler.
Annie can scramble any word
just by stomping her foot.
And Danny Rebus.
Danny can turn any sentence into a code.
- We have incredible news!
- Francine Carruthers has
the same word ball power
that we have.
She can just think of a
word and then throw it.
And finally, there's Manny Spamboni.
Manny doesn't actually have any powers,
though he makes all sorts of
trouble with his crazy gadgets.
Whenever something good happens to someone
in our neighborhood, you just know
a Prankster's going to try to ruin it.
But luckily, we're usually
always one step ahead.
Become part of the company.
Plug it in and turn it on.
- [Lisa, Jessica, and
Keith] Lisa and Scrambler
switched brains.
- switched bodies.
- They switched brains and bodies?
(Jessica laughs)
- You helped Annie Scrambler
switch bodies with Lisa,
now switch the hypnosis...
(Hector and Jessica laugh)
Aww.
- Cut.
- We need to find Sigmund.
- There's a no Sigmund here.
Nah, I'ma no speaka da English.
- There's a siren, there's a siren.
- And there's a siren.
(all laugh)
(Jessica yelps)
- What's it say?
