01x03 - Hello

Post by bunniefuu »

- Hoodbledoop, Tiddlypeeps.

I'm Hubba Hubba, talking

to you from Hoobland.

And I'm about to send four of

my favorite Hoobs down to Earth

to find out all about you

for my great Hoobopedia.

Here they come!

♪ Hoobs ♪

Tula!

Tula?

Tula!

Tula.

Tula!

La!

She's disappeared.

Oh!

Not in the fridge.

Hooby Galooby, she

must be somewhere.

But where?

♪ Where, where, where ♪

♪ Where? ♪

Oh, this is terrible.

Tula's our friend,

and we've lost her.

Oh, maybe she's playing

Hooby Hide and Hooby Seek.

But we haven't got

time for that, Groove.

We need to think up a question

for today's Hoob News.

Hubba Hubba will be

waiting back in Hoobland

for us to give him our

question of the day.

- Oh, I know a question

we could ask. (chuckling)

- What?

Where's Tula?

(techno beeping)

- Nope.

That's not a Hoob News

question, or Hubba Hubba

would have shown up

on the Hooby Computer.

Where is Tula?

- [Both] Tula!

- [Both] Come back!

Hoobledoop.

Tula, where have you been?

Out picking rocks.

Oh, these are Hooble

Dooble Dooper.

Oh, we were so

worried about you.

Oh, sorry.

Didn't mean to worry you.

To make up for it,

I'm going to make

you both some friendship stones.

Friendship stones?

(chuckling) Hooby Groovy.

Oh, Tula, I'm so

pleased to see you.

Let me give you a Hoobledigger.

- [Both] Hooble, Hooble,

Digger Digger Digger Digger

Digger Digger Digger.

- (Both chuckle)

- My turn, my turn.

Well, be quick about it, Groove.

We need a question for Hoob News

and we need it now.

Yeah, yeah.

- [Both] Hooble,

Hooble, Digger Digger

Digger Digger Digger.

Oh, thanks, guys.

Nothing like a Hoobledigger

to make you feel wanted.

I wonder,

do Peeps give Hooblediggers

to their friends

when they're really

pleased to see them?

No, Hooblediggers are

a Hoob thing, Groove.

Now, um, question.

So, how do Peeps say

hello to their friends

when they're really

pleased to see them?

(echoes) Hubba Hubba!

Oh! It's Hubba Hubba.

That means we've

hitched the question.

(techno beeping)

How do Peeps say

hello to their friends

when they're really

pleased to see them?

That's a Hoobelly Groobelly

question for Hoob News.

Oh, what a relief.

It's just what every

Hoob needs to know.

The perfect information

for my Hoobapedia.

And if Peeps do something

really Hooby Groovy,

then perhaps Hoobs

could do it, too.

Huh? What?

Instead of a Hoobledigger?

No, as well as a Hoobledigger.

Hoobacious idea, Groove!

Now, let me see what I can find

on Hoobnet about

how Peeps say hello.

(humming) Ah!

Huh! Take a look at this.

(techno beeping)

- [Hubba] Oh, look, a

big underwater hello.

Oh, there's a

wingy, flappy hello.

Cuddly hello.

Oh, there's a licky hello.

Aah!

Ooh, that's almost a

Hoobledigger, look.

There's another

underwater hello.

Oh, and look at him,

he's wagging his tail.

(techno beeping)

Well, jiggle my twizzletuff,

there are so many

ways to say hello.

I'm going to make a

red friendship stone

for you, Groove.

And a blue one for you, Iver.

Tula, we're trying to

answer the question.

Oh, sorry.

I know which hello I like best.

The tail wagging one.

How Hooby Groovy was that?

I'd love to say hello like that

if I was really pleased

to see a friend.

Can I try?

But, Groove...

Waggle, waggle,

waggle, waggle, woo!

- No, ugh...

Waggle, waggle, waggle,

waggle, waggle, woo.

- Ugh!

Groove, Groove, Groove, I

hate to say this, but, um,

dogs wag their tails, not Peeps.

Oh, yeah. Right.

Peeps don't have tails.

And neither do Hoobs.

No, but I can

pretend I've got one.

Waggle, waggle, waggle, woo!

Waggle, waggle, woo!

Later, Groove.

Now, none of those

ways of saying hello

looked Hoobaciously

friendly, did they?

No, none of them were as

cozy and snuggly

as a Hoobledigger.

Well, someone will know

if Peeps have something

- like a Hoobledigger.

- Yes.

But who?

♪ Who, who, who? ♪

♪ Who? Who? Who? ♪

(echoes) Hubba Hubba!

Hubba Hubba! He must know.

Hoobledoop, Hoobs!

- [All] Hoobledoop, Hubba Hubba!

Now, I just found a

story from a Tiddlypeep

about a very unusual way

of saying hello.

Let's see if it's anything

like a Hoobledigger.

(techno beeping)

- [Narrator] Once upon a time,

there was a very young queen.

Her name was Queen Violet.

And she was the youngest

queen in the whole world.

Queen Violet sat on

her throne all day long

while her servants brought her

everything she could ever want.

When she wanted

some strawberries,

- A servant would bring her some

- Ma'am.

curtsy, and go away.

When she wanted a

kitten to play with,

a servant would bring

her one, curtsy,

and go away.

But there was one thing

Queen Violet never got.

- And that was a chance - Ma'am.

to do anything by herself.

Then, one day, she decided

that she wanted a new dress.

"I would like a new dress."

she said.

So, a servant sent

for the old dressmaker.

Send for the old dressmaker.

Now, when the old dressmaker

walked up to the throne,

she didn't curtsy.

"You forgot to curtsy."

whispered one of the servants.

"But I don't know

how to curtsy,"

said the old dressmaker.

"You don't know how to curtsy?"

said Queen Violet.

Then I'll show you.

Queen Violet got

down from her throne,

and showed the old dressmaker

how to curtsy.

Queen Violet curtsied,

and the old dressmaker curtsied.

Then, Queen Violet curtsied,

and the old dressmaker curtsied.

Down and up.

"This is fun,"

said Queen Violet.

At last, I have something to do

instead of just

sitting on my throne.

From that day on,

she became the only

queen in the world

to curtsy to all her servants

Ma'am.

whenever she saw them.

And she curtsied

happily ever after.

(techno beeping)

A curtsy!

What a Hooble Dooble

Dooper way of saying hello.

Down, up.

I still like the

wagging think best.

Uh, waggle, waggle,

waggle, waggle, woo!

Waggle, waggle,

waggle, waggle, woo!

Yes, yes, all right.

Hold it, you two.

Waggle, waggle...

Please.

I wonder if Peeps

curtsy to their friends

when they're really

pleased to see them.

Hmm. I think curtsies are for

saying hello to

important people.

Like Queen Violet.

There must be a friendlier

way of saying hello than that.

Yes. (gasps) There's

only one thing for it.

- [All] ...hmm.

I've got it. I've had an idea.

What?

I'm going to make myself a

Hooby Groovy wagging tail.

Waggle, waggle, waggle, woo!

- Waggle, waggle, waggle, woo!

- Oh, Groove.

We're trying to

find out if Peeps

have something like

a Hoobledigger.

And all you can do is wag.

Oh, I'm sorry.

(echoes) Hubba Hubba!

Here's Hubba Hubba.

Have you been having a Hooby

think too, Hubba Hubba?

As a matter of

fact, Tula, I have.

Now, if you're

looking for a cozy,

snuggly, friendly way

of saying hello,

then why don't you go and ask

the coziest, snuggliest,

friendliest Peeps?

The Tiddlypeeps, you mean?

Hoobacious idea, Hubba Hubba!

Thank you, Iver.

Groove, it's your turn to

go and see the Tiddlypeeps.

Oh, but I'm about

to make my tail

out of this stuff I found in

my soft and furry collection.

You can make your

tail later, Groove.

I'm sure the Tiddlypeeps

would love to see you

practicing your wagging.

You really think so?

Mm-hmm.

I'll paint your friendship

stone while you're gone.

All right, Tula.

I can't wait to wag

at some Tiddlypeeps.

Are you gonna drive,

Iver? Waggle, waggle, woo!

Waggle, waggle, woo!

Waggle, waggle, woo!

I think I better. (laughing)

Waggle, waggle, woo!

Waggle, waggle, woo!

- Wait for me.

- Seatbelt, Iver.

- Yes.

- [Both] We're off to

see the Tiddlypeeps.

Hello, Tiddlypeeps.

- [All] Oh, it's Groove!

Would you like to

do a Hooby hello?

- [All] Yes!

- [All] Hoobledoop! Hoobledoop!

Whoop! Whoop! Whoop!

That's a really Hooby Groovy

way of saying hello, isn't it?

It is the Hooby

Grooviest way ever.

Do you know any

Hooby Groovy ways

that Peeps say

hello to each other?

I do! I do!

They say, "Hi."

Or good afternoon

or good morning.

Good afternoon or good morning?

Oh. Oh, I see, depending

on whether or not

it's afternoon or morning.

I see. That makes sense.

So, how do you say hello to

your teacher in the morning?

- [All] Good morning,

Mrs. Wilkinson!

(laughing) That is Hooby Groovy.

Did you hear that, Tula? Iver?

Yes.

Are there any other ways?

A soldier salutes his

captain to say hello.

Like this.

- [Groove] Oh, I love that.

Iver, did you see

that? A salute.

And sometimes we

say hello like this.

- [Both] How do you do?

How do you do?

Wow, Peeps have so many

ways of saying hello.

And sometimes you might

find this as a hello.

Waving? I though that

was how you said goodbye.

So, waving means

hello and goodbye.

- [All] Yes!

Well, thank you so

much, Tiddlypeeps.

And now, it's time for

me to wave goodbye.

But we'll do a Hooby

goodbye, shall we?

- [All] Yes!

- [All] Hooble toodle doo!

Hmm. Groove found

lots of hellos there,

but he didn't ask the

right question, did he?

That was Hooby Groovy.

Tiddlypeeps are great.

And they know so much.

But, Groove, you forgot

to ask them the question.

- What question?

- (Both sigh)

How do Peeps say

hello to their friends

when they're really

pleased to see them?

Oh, um...

Well, maybe it was one of

the ones they showed me.

How about this?

Oh, it's not very cozy

and snuggly, is it?

No.

Not like a Hoobledigger.

What about the

shaking-hands thing?

Try that.

How do you do?

How do you do, Tula?

(Chuckles)

It's nice, but it's still

not as friendly as...

No.

- The Tiddlypeeps

should try tail wagging.

I could let them have

mine when it's finished.

Groove, the question!

(echoes) Roma!

Ah, here some Roma.

She might know how Peeps

say hello to their friends

when they're really

pleased to see them.

Hoobledoop, Hoobs.

Today I'm reporting

from New Zealand,

where I'm going to

meet a rugby team.

Do rugby players have their

own way of saying hello?

Well, they do here.

Before they start,

they say hello

in a Fantabihooby way.

It's called the Haka.

(Chanting indistinctly)

I think I'll stick

to wagging the tail.

Are you going to say

hello back, Roma?

Absolutely.

Hoobs, Hoobs, Hoobs.

Hello, boys. Hello, boys.

- Hoobs, Hoobs, Hoobs.

- But, Roma, are

they doing the Haka

because they're

pleased to see you?

Of course, Tula.

And there's a thing

called a scrum

which sounds utterly Hoobacious.

Don't start without me, boys.

- [All] Be careful, Roma.

Oh, I'm joining in.

This is Roma Hoob

about to play rugby.

Hooble toodle doo!

- [All] Hooble toodle doo!

(techno beeping)

Well, the Haka looked like

an interesting way of

saying hello, didn't it?

Yes, it did, but I wouldn't say

it was a particularly,

well, you know,

friendly way, would you?

Mm. Those rugby players

- didn't look friendly at all.

- Yeah.

My wagging is gonna

be super friendly

once I finish my tail.

Waggle, waggle, waggle,

waggle, waggle, waggle, woo!

Waggle, waggle,

waggle, waggle, woo!

Yes, yes, um, um,

It's going to be a

Hoobacious tale, Groove.

But we still need to find

an answer to our question.

It's nearly time for the news.

(echoes) Hubba Hubba!

Well, Hoobs, how

are you getting on?

Are you nearly ready to

give Hoobs everywhere

the answer to your question?

Oh, Hubba Hubba,

I do feel we're

getting very close, but

we haven't quite got there yet.

Don't worry, Iver.

You could ask the

Tiddlypeeps again.

(gasps) I'll go! I'll go!

Okay, Groove, you can go.

But remember to ask

the question this time.

Uh, what question?

How do Peeps

say hello to their friends...

When they're really

pleased to see them?

Oh, yeah, yeah.

I'm going to put ribbons

on the friendship stones

so you can wear them around

Do you know what Hoobs

do when they say hello

to a friend who they're

really pleased to see?

No.

We give each other

a Hoobledigger.

- [Girl] A Hoobledigger?

- [Groove] Yes.

- Shall I give you one?

- Yes, please.

Okay, Hooble,

Hooble, Digger Digger

Digger Digger Digger!

- (laughing)

- That's lovely.

Well, we Hoobs think

it's really Hooby Groovy.

Hey, why don't you give a

Hoobledigger to each other?

Okay.

- [Both] Hooble, Hooble,

Digger Digger Digger!

(laughing)

But what I want to know is

am I your friend?

- [Both] Yes.

And are you pleased to see me?

- [Both] Yes.

So, how do Tiddlypeeps

say hello to their friends

when they're really

pleased to see them?

Like this.

What? What?

Oh, oh, oh, (chuckling)

Hooby Galooby, what was that?

A hug.

A hug?

Wow! A hug, Iver.

Did you see that?

I just got a hug.

Oh, hug is such a warm and

cozy way of saying hello.

I've got to go back to

the Hoobmobile right now.

And I'm gonna give Tula one.

Hooble toodle doo!

- [Both] Hooble toodle doo!

He got the answer.

He certainly did.

He looked like he

really enjoyed that hug.

Oh, a hug is something else.

I can't tell you, it's...

Let me show you.

Oh! Oh!

Hooby Galooby!

You try one, Iver.

Oh, oh. (chuckling) Wow.

This huggy thing's a really

snuggly thing, isn't it?

Yes.

A perfect way of saying

hello to a special friend,

which reminds me...

Ta-da!

I finished making your

friendship stones.

Um, a red one for you Groove.

Oh, thank you, Tula.

And a blue one for you.

Oh, thank you very, very much.

You know, that Hooby

hug was so Groovy,

and so is my Hooby stone,

I'd almost forgotten

about my tail.

Oh, well, never mind, Groove.

Let me fix it on now.

(Chuckles)

And you can wear it

in Hoob News.

are you ready with your

news for my Hoobapedia?

- [All] We're

ready, Hubba Hubba.

Hoobledoop Whoop, to

all you Hoobs out there.

Welcome to Hoob News.

The news show for

Hoobs everywhere.

I'm Iver.

I'm Tula.

And I'm Groove.

And today we've been

asking the question...

How do Peeps say

hello to their friends

when they're really

pleased to see them?

- [Iver] We found

out that there are

Hoobloads of ways

of saying hello.

- [Tula] If you meet

someone really important,

like a queen, you can curtsy.

- [Groove] Soldiers salute when

they say hello to their captain.

- [Iver] And a

wave can mean hello

or goodbye.

- [Tula] And Roma told us

that some rugby players

have a Hooble Dooble Dooper way

of saying hello before a match.

- [Groove] Shaking hands

is pretty friendly.

- [Iver] But still not as

friendly as a Hoobledigger.

But the Peeps have something

just a snuggly

and friendly.

- [All] A hug!

Oh, I can't wait

to try it out on Aunty

Hattie Hoob Hoobs.

So, it's thanks

once again to Iver,

Tula, Groove, and Roma

for giving us a little

peep in the world of Peeps.

Now, remember, wherever

you are, have a

Hoobelly Groobelly day, and

- [All] Hooble toodle doo!

Hooby Galooby,

I think I'm ready

for another hug.

And I'm ready for

a Hooby Groovy wag.

Waggle, waggle, waggle, woo!
