Better check the old to-do list.

Done and done!

Just one more to-do left to do!

But first, better make sure my little wombats are up.

[grunts]

[grunting]

[straining]

[grunts, moans]

What happenedin here?

It's not that messy, Grandma Super!

Right, Snout?[Snout whimpers]

[Malik laughs nervously]

Could be a lot worse.

Maybe if a tornado blew through.

Listen, I'm heading out.

I promised Leiko and Duffy

I'd clean up after their anniversary party.

You know, as a little gift to them.

It shouldn't take long if I...

♪ Break it dow... ♪

Dow, dow!

[gasps]

Dow, wow!

Wow.

Wow!

You need to rest your toe,Grandma.

But I have to do the last job on my to-do list.

No! Nope, nope, nope,

nope, nope, nope.

Hm... I know!

I know!

We could do the jobfor you.

Yeah, we got this!

The Starlight Room has to be spotless

in time for Quique's exercise class.

Are you sure you can handle it?

It's only one job.

How hard can it be?

Thanks, you two are the best.

My little junior supers!

Wait, where's Zeke?

MALIK: Well,

he has the most important job of all!

[imitating ambulance siren]

I'm Nurse Zeke and this is Dr. Snout.

You're in good hands, Super.

Let's have a listen to that toe.

Uh-oh.

What is it, Nurse Zeke?

Your toe says--"Owie!"

[Snout whimpers]

Dr. Snout says we must operate!

Well, Dr. Snout is the professional.



Hey!BOTH: Hi, Quique!

I just wanted to check that Super will have the room

ready in time for my exercise class soon.

Mm-hmm-- Super hurt her foot,

so we're cleaning it up for her.

Oh, how nice-- need some help?

Nah, we can handle it.

But thanks!

Okie dokie!

Why is everyone so worried?

It's just one room.

[gasps]

Wow, Leiko and Duffy sure know how to party.

I'm gonna need a bazillion trash bags

for all this mess.



Unless

I use a shortcut.



Are you gonna do what I think you're gonna do?

If you think I'm gonna use this fan

to blow the mess into one big pile, then yep!

Uh, that's...

...a great idea!

We'll have the room clean in no time-- hit it!

[shouting]: It's not working!

[shouting]: Crank it all the way up!

[yelps]

[yelping]: Turn it off!

Turn it off!

[grunts]



[grunting]

Admit it, that was kind of cool.

Yeah, but the fan made the mess

a zillion times worse-- look!

[thermometer beeps]

Huh.

May I please have some juice, Nurse Zeke?

Sure, I'll be right back.

Don't move.

Doctor's orders!

[whispers]: Don't mind me, Dr. Snout.

I just want to check in with Zadie and Malik.

Almost there.[gasps]

Almost there. [gasps]

Hey!

What do you think you're doing?

Uh...

Getting back on the couch?

That's right!

Your toe needs rest.

Now we have an even bigger job than we started with.

Thinking, thinking...

Thinking, thinking...[humming "Break It Down"]

[gasps]: Wait!

What?

I always think better when I sing.

No, not that!

That was Grandma's song!

Remember?

♪ In every job, little jobs can be found ♪

♪ That's the best part of breaking it down ♪

♪ Solve the little jobs one by one ♪

♪ And you'll get the big one done-- oh! ♪

We can break down the big job of cleaning into smaller jobs.

Okay, I'll tackle the little jobs

of cleaning the counters

and putting everything in the trash.

And I'll sweep the floor!

Break it down!

[door opens]



One confetti, two confetti,

three confetti...

Oh, brother, this will take all day.

[blows]

There!

Now to collect the trash.



All right.

[hums]

And done!

Aww, Zadie!

I just finished sweeping!

Oopsie, sorry!

I'll just take this trash out,

then I'll come back to help.



[straining]

[grunts]

Well, looks like we need to mop now.



[yelps, grunts]

[grunts]

My feet are stuck 'cause of the sticky punch.

Here, grab on!

[grunting, straining]

No!

This is a disaster!

This room is not going to be ready for Quique.

This is really bad.

And the wolfed huffed... and puffed...

And... [snoring]

[sleepily]: I would've made a marshmallow house.

[quietly]: Just a little further...

[sighs]

Maybe this job is too big for a pair of junior supers.

I wish Grandma Super was here.[horn plays]

SUPER [softly, on speaker]: Zadie, Malik, are you there?!

Super!

SUPER [softly]: I have to be quick.

Nurse Zeke is resting his eyes.

How's it going?

Uh, not exactlygreat.

We tried to break it down,

but it's just not working.

Maybe the last verse of the song will help you out.

♪ Don't forget when you feel stuck ♪

♪ Try something new, don't wait for luck! ♪

♪ In every big job, little jobs can be found ♪

[stirring]

Uh-oh, gotta go!

SUPER: I know you'll work it out, wombats!

So, we've got to try something new.

Let's break it down in a different way!

What if

first, we cleaned off

the tables and counters?

That way, we can sweep up anything we spill

and put it in the trash.

Mm-hm, yeah, then second, we take out all the trash.

And last, we clean the floors!

We've got a plan!





Knock, knock!

Can we come in?Absolutely!

Whoa, nice work, you two!

Thanks!Thanks!

BOTH: Grandma Super, Grandma Super! We did it!

[quietly]: Shh.

I just got her down for a nap.

Oops, sorry, Nurse Zeke.

We were excited to tell her

that we "broke it down" in the Starlight Room!

We broke our big job into little jobs, and made a plan.

And worked together!

Um, Zadie? Zeke?

I think we need to "break it down" one last time today.

We gotta clean this room.

That's gonna take forever!

Not if we break it down!

Yeah, we'll show you how,Zeke!





ZADIE: We worked it out!

We are now official junior supers.

Ready to take on the world!

[snoring]



Lunchtime!

Let's each make a sandwich!

Let's start with sunflower butter!

ZEKE: I've got the bread!ZADIE: No way!

ZEKE: Let's do jelly first!

Wait, let's break it down!

Yeah!'Cause I'm hungry!

[mouth full]: We broke, broke, broke it down!

[laughing]

MALIK: "Measure for Measure."

Whoo-hoo, whee!

I adore trampolines!

[giggles]

Now you're Rainbow Snout!

Here comes Ellie!



Whoo-hoo, whoo-hoo!

ALL: Wow!

Unbelievable!

My hat!

Best bounce ever!

That was awesome!Wow!

I bounced too high.

Lost my favorite hat!

It was a present from my gammy.

She said, "Ellie, on a hot day, you need a hat."

Oh, well.

Maybe I'll get another one someday.

You could get a new hat

at the Everything Emporium!ELLIE:Okay!

Let's go!

Come on!

[bell rings at door]

Hello, Ellie!

Come in, look around!

Perhaps I can show you something!

Anything, everything!

WOMBATS: Hi!

Huh?

What, what...?ALL: Hi!

[gasps]: What, what?

[giggling][exhales]

Hi, Mr. E.!

Wombats!

Chaos, breakage-- no!

We, we're, uh, closed.

Yeah, we're closed for...

...remodeling! Just remembered.

We won't break anything.

I want to buy a hat,

and my wombat friends are here to help me pick one out.

[laughs]: Hats?

Hats are my specialty!

Yes!

You'll be able to find one you like at my Everything Emporium!

We do have everything, after all!

Oh, this is a beauty!

I like stripes, but...

Try it on, see how it feels!

How does it look?

Well, uh...Too small!

Do you have any hats in my size?

Well, how about this one?

Too big!

I don't think you have a hat for me,

Mr. E.[yelps]: Of, of course I do!

Found one!

No, this little cap is fit for a fish.

What's this?

Might as well wear a canoe on your head!

[cries]

Ellie, I do... not have...

a hat... for you.

[moan]

Well, that's okay, Mr. E.

You tried.



May I have some jellybeans, please?

[sniffling]: No charge.

Gee, thanks, Mr. E.!

From my great-great-great- great-grandfather E. on down,

the promise to always have everything

in the Everything Emporium was unbroken until now!

Whoever is responsible

for breaking that promise must be fired!

Mr. E., you are fired!

Whee!

[shouts happily]

[exhales]: It's really hot out.

[sighs]: I miss my hat.

I think I'll go find some shade.

Ellie really needs a hat, so, hm...

Let's make one for her!

All right!

We have to make a hat

that's the right size for Ellie.

But what can we make it out of?

How about...

Let me, let me!

We'll make it out of a thousand waffles

stacked really high,

sparkled with stardust, and at the very tippy-top,

bunches of sparklers!

Did you get all that?

Uh-huh!

Exactly how I imagined it, Zeke.

How about we just use poster board and aluminum foil?

That'll work.



WOMBATS: Open your eyes

for a big surprise!

ELLIE: Wow!

It's a...

It's a hat!

Of course it's a hat!

I mean, what-- come on, what else could it be?

How does it look?

Well, at least it's not too small.

No, 'cause it'stoo big.

[chuckling]: Did we forget to measure?

Oh, to make the right-size hat for Ellie,

we have to figure out the size of her head.

And to do that,

we have to measure!

What's measure?Well,

when I have to measure something,

I use a ruler to figure out how big or small it is.

Ellie, can I climb up and show you?

Yes!

But we can't usea ruler,

because it doesn't bend.

We need something that can measure

around her head.How do we do that?

Hm, with apples?Huh?

ZADIE [quickly]: One, two, three, four, five,

six, seven, eight, nine, ten!

This basket measures ten apples around.

We can measure Ellie's head

by seeing how many apples around it is!

Always wanted to know how many apples can go around my head.

How are we going to stick apples

all the way around Ellie's head?

With something sticky!

Caramel makes caramel apples sticky

and extra-yummy!

Ready for some caramel?

Yes, let's get sticky!

Hm...

[clears throat, grunts]ZADIE: Malik,

stick on an apple!

It's sticking!

Let me try!

That's two...

MALIK: Three, and four, five...

Six.

[yelps]: Whoa!

Looks like we need to work it out, wombats.

Apples are too big and heavy to stick around Ellie's head.

We gotta use something else to measure.Right.

Something smaller and lighter, like...

Jellybeans!

Jellybeans?

Jellybeans are good for everything!

I love it!

It's not everyone that gets to know

the size of their head in jellybeans!

Hm, hey, the jellybeans you put on this side

to measure are gone.

ZADIE: What happened?

Zeke, did you pick jellybeans just so you could eat them?

[mouth full]: Uh-huh!

I picked jellybeans.

Now we're out of jellybeans!

Hm... A-ha!

Instead of lots of little things,

what if we measured with one long thing

that can go all the way around Ellie's head?

Yes!

[grunting]: It won't reach!

I'll unscrew it from the faucet!

No, Snout wants to do it!

[grunting]

[squeals]

Ooh!

I can't catch it!

Don't get Snout wet!

[laughing]

That was so fun!

[groans]: Well, if can't use the hose, now what?

Hm...

Snout says to use his ribbon.

It's long, bendy, and no one gets wet.

Is it okay if I cut the ribbon,Zeke?

Okay!

[giggles]

We measured!

And now that we know exactly how big Ellie's head is,

we can make a hat that will fit her perfectly.



Goodbye forever, Everything Emporium.

We need glue, Mr. E.!

Sorry, I got fired-- I no longer work here.

But we're making a hat for Ellie!

And if you don't work here, we won't be able to buy glue,

and then Ellie won't get her hat, and...

A hat for Ellie? Say no more!

You're rehired!

You've come to the right place.

Glue is my specialty.



WOMBATS AND MR. E.: Open your eyes for a big surprise!

Ta-da!

Oh!

How does it look?

It fits perfect!

Because we measured.

Hey!

My second-favorite hat!

[screams and laughs]

On my day off, I like to go hot air ballooning.

So imagine my surprise

when I found your hat stuck to my basket!

Thanks for returning it, Super.

Figured you'd want it back, but wow!

It's not half as lovely

as the one you're wearing now.[horn plays]

MR. E. [on speaker]: Attention, all Treeborhood residents!

I'm pleased to announce that I have decided

to carry custom-measured hats for everyone in the Treeborhood!

Looks like we'll be spending a lot of time together, Mr. E.

After all, measuring is a wombat specialty.

Oh...

Wonderful.

[giggling]

It is, isn't it?

[laughing]
