[THEME MUSIC]

THEME SONG: It's a beautiful
day in this neighborhood,

a beautiful day for a neighbor.

Would you be mine?

Could you be mine?

It's a neighborly day
in this beautywood,

a neighborly day for a beauty.

Would you be mine?

Could you be mine?

I have always wanted to have
a neighbor just like you.

I've always wanted to live
in a neighborhood with you.

So let's make the most
of this beautiful day.

Since we're together, we might
as well say, would you be mine?

Could you be mine?

Won't you be my neighbor?

Won't you, please?

Won't you, please?

Please, won't you
be my neighbor?

-Hi, neighbor.

Welcome to this neighborhood.

I'm always glad when
we can be together.

Where is Mister Rogers?

Peek-a-boo.

You know what this is?

Of course you could
imagine anything

on this big piece of
paper, but a friend of mine

made me a picture of the
Neighborhood of Make-Believe.

And I wanted you to see it.

Look at that.

With paints.

Wonderful artist.

Who lives in the castle?

King Friday, Prince
Tuesday, Queen Sara.

Isn't that fun to have
little doors like that?

And who lives in
the Eiffel Tower?

Grandpere.

Bonjour, mes amis.

And what about the factory here?

Who lives and works
in the factory?

Cornflake S Pecially.

Now here's a big tree.

Who lives in the
house in the tree?

Henrietta Pussycat.

And who lives behind the
knothole in the tree?

X the Owl.

And what about their neighbor
here at the Museum-Go-Round?

Lady Elaine Fairchilde.

And her neighbors,
the Platypus family.

And who lives in the clock?

You know him, don't you?

Daniel Striped Tiger.

If you were going to
show and tell somebody

about our Neighborhood
of Make-Believe,

how do you think
you would do it?

By drawing with crayons?

Or painting with paint?

Or sculpting with clay?

Or dancing?

Sure, you could do
all of those things

to show and tell what the
neighborhood means to you.

I was just thinking
about X the Owl.

You know how I would show
somebody about X the Owl?

I'd probably go like this.

Hello, everybody.

Welcome.

Now that's called doing
mime-- sort of acting out

what something or
somebody is like.

You know, there are people who
know how to do mime very well.

In fact, there are people
who are mime artists.

And Mr. McFeely told
me that he might bring

such a person by to visit today.

So I think I'll call
him to make sure.

I call the McFeelys so much
that I know their number.

Oh, hello, Mrs. McFeely.

How are you?

Good.

Oh, they are?

All right.

Well, thank you very
much for telling me.

And what is her name?

Motoko.

All right.

Thank you very much.

All right.

Hope you're having a good day.

Bye bye.

Mrs. McFeely said that
her husband, Mr. McFeely,

and Motoko, the mime artist, are
on their way over to this place

right here.

So why don't we
sing a numbers song

while we're waiting for them?

All right?

[SINGING] One and one are two.

Two and two are four.

Four and four are eight.

And eight and two are ten.

One, two, three, four, five,
six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

-Now you try singing
it yourself while we

listen to the music, all right?

[MUSIC PLAYING]

There you are.

[KNOCKING]

Oh, maybe that's they now.

Let's see.

It is.

Mr. McFeely.

-Speedy Delivery.

Here we are.

-Oh, good.

-I'd like you to meet somebody.

Right down here.

Mister Rogers, meet Motoko.

-Motoko, glad to meet you.

-Hi, nice to meet you.

-Thank you.

I'd like you to know
my television neighbor.

-Hi, neighbor.

Hello.

-I was telling them that
you are a mime artist.

-Yes.

-We'd love to see
some of your work.

-OK.

Mime is a way to tell
stories, like make-believe.

MISTER ROGERS: Uh-huh.

-How would you like
to make-believe

that you are eating an apple?

MISTER ROGERS: Oh, good.

Why don't we just sit here
and-- oh, you have something.

Oh, thank you very much.

-Thank you.

-And I'll take one
out for myself.

You wipe it.

Mm.

It's a little bit tart.

Go ahead.

Taste.

Try.

Do you like it?

-Taste good, yes.

Look how she makes it-- and
puts it in the other hand.

-Hm.

Well, while you're
finishing your apple,

let me show you something else.

You could make-believe
and pretend

that you're walking
through the neighborhood.

MISTER ROGERS: Uh-huh.

It looks like she's
moving, doesn't it?

And she's just--

-Not really.

I'm not going anywhere.

You can just pretend.

-Yeah.

-Or you can
pretend-- oh, I know.

Guess what I've got here.

MISTER ROGERS: It's a ball.

Oh!

-Here you go.

Here's one for you, Mr. McFeely.

-There you go.

Speedy Delivery.

-What else?

I know.

Mister Rogers has fish.

I have my own fish
here right here.

MISTER ROGERS: You
have your own fish.

She just makes a
fish out of her hand.

-Right.

My hand becomes a fish.

MISTER ROGERS: A butterfly.

Oh, it's lovely.

Oh, it's OK now.

MR. MCFEELY: There it goes.

-Oh, I could just feel you
with the butterfly there.

-Oh, before we go,
do you think you

could do a pussycat and an owl?

-OK.

I have a pussycat right here.

MISTER ROGERS: It looks so soft.

-And and owl-- an owl
that's flying away.

Fly.

-Oh, that's beautiful.

Did you always like
to do such things

even when you were
a little girl?

-Yes, I always like to
pretend and make-believe.

Because with mime, you can
just be anywhere you like.

MISTER ROGERS: Yeah.

-Speaking of flying, we have
to go over to the school.

So we'll say Speedy Delivery.

-Oh, the children at the school
will be fortunate to meet you,

Motoko.

Thank you very much.

-Nice meeting you.

-Very glad to meet you.

Thank you, Mr. McFeely.

-You're welcome.

Speedy Delivery.

Right this way, Motoko.

-What a special person.

I love to introduce
you to people

who are wonderful and talented.

Motoko is certainly that.

Let's just fly into the kitchen.

Who lives here?

And here?

And in the tree?

Museum-Go-Round.

And the Platypuses here.

Mhm.

Daniel Tiger.

We've been pretending that the
Trolley-- when somebody holds

it-- is able to do
surprising things.

It can show pictures of what
things were like in the past.

That means it can show what
was going on a few minutes ago

or a few weeks ago or years ago.

Not everybody knows
about the Trolley's being

able to do that, but more and
more people are finding out.

That's have the Trolley
take us to the Neighborhood

of Make-Believe.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[CHIMES]

[WHISTLE]

[CHIMES]

-Yes, you may stop, Trolley.

[WHISTLE]

Yes.

Now what is this
I hear about your

being able to show the past?

[WHISTLE]

Trolley.

Uh-huh.

Oh, niece Aberlin, I presume.

-Correct, as usual,
Uncle Friday.

Did you hear about the Trolley?

-Showing what
happened before now?

-Yes.

Isn't it wonderful?

-I haven't witnessed it yet.

-Would you like to?

-Oh, yes.

You may do it, Trolley.

[WHISTLE]

[CHIMES]

-Off its tracks?

-Oh, yes.

Someone must take it from
its track for it to work.

-You may do so, niece.

-Now you may do so, Trolley.

[WHISTLE]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Why, that's when Prince
Tuesday was just a tiny baby.

LADY ABERLIN: Yes.

And now he's a growing boy.

KING FRIDAY: Yes.

-Isn't it great how the Trolley
has all this history inside?

Just waiting to be seen, kind
of like a library of hope.

-Yeah.

Would it be possible
to see when I

was a tiny baby with
my mother and father?

There we are.

That was my father and mother.

Aren't they fine people?

LADY ABERLIN: I
should say they are.

And you were a fine
baby, Uncle Friday.

-It's humorous to contemplate
my being a baby, is it not?

-Oh, you know, everybody
was a baby at one time.

-Could the Trolley show when
you were a baby, niece A?

KING FRIDAY: Lovely baby, you.

Lovely.

LADY ABERLIN: Thanks.

Since we're showing babies
on the Trolley, Uncle Friday,

maybe the Platypuses would like
to see a few pictures of Ana

when she was a baby.

-Oh, a neighborly suggestion.

Are you able to show Platypuses
on your screen, Trolley?

[WHISTLE]

[CHIMES]

Truly amazing.

You both may go to
the Platypus Mound,

and of course return to
the tracks when possible.

[WHISTLE]

-Of course.

-Yes, thank you.

-Farewell, Uncle Friday.

-Oh, farewell, niece.

Yes.

[CHIMES]

-Hello, neighbors.

-Oh, why, Lady Aberlin, welcome.

-And welcome to
you, too, Trolley.

[WHISTLE]

-Oh, thank you.

[CHIMES]

We wanted to show you something
that the Trolley can do.

-It's kind of funny
to see the Trolley

in your hands, Lady Aberlin.

-Yes, I guess it is.

-Does it do something
special off its tracks?

-That's right.

It does.

-Well, just exactly
what does it do?

-Besides look nice
in your hands.

-Let's show them, Trolley.

ELSIE JEAN: Why, that's
when Ana was just a baby.

That's wonderful.

ANA: You mean, I was that tiny?

ELSIE JEAN: Yes, you were, dear.

-Oh, I remember how excited we
all were when you were born.

-And I grew to be this big?

-And to talk and to play
and to have friends.

-Everybody was a baby one time.

Weren't we, Lady Aberlin?

-That's right.

We all were, even
you, Elsie Jean.

Trolley, can you
show us a picture

of the time when
Elsie Jean was little?

ANA: Were you that
tiny baby, Mother?

ELSIE JEAN: Yes, I was, dear.

And my mother and dad
loved me the way your dad

and I love you.

-And we all love
Trolley for showing

us what it was like long ago.

[CHIMES]

-Oh, that's right.

We should be getting
back to the tracks

and the Trolley schedule.

-Well, thanks for coming
over here, you two.

[WHISTLE]

-Oh, you're welcome.

We thought you might enjoy it.

-Bye.

-Bye.

-Hey, Lady A. Lady A. Ha ha.

-Oh, hi, friends.

[SPEAKING GIBBERISH]

-I was just telling Lady
Elaine what the Trolley can do.

-And I want to see it happen.

-Well, we were just going
back to the Trolley track.

-All I want to see is
what this neighborhood

was like before
I ever came here.

-Oh, I remember.

[SPEAKING GIBBERISH]
It was really different

in the old days.

-Do you think you
could take time

out to show us that, Trolley?

[SPEAKING GIBBERISH]

ROBERT TROLL: Yes,
I remember this.

It was just all pasture land.

LADY ELAINE: Somehow I
never thought of this place

like that.

Imagine nobody living here.

ROBERT TROLL: Yeah,
well, Daniel's clock

was the first place here.

LADY ELAINE: Uh-huh.

LADY ABERLIN: And then
the castle was built.

LADY ELAINE: Then all the
good stuff in between,

like my place.

[LAUGHING]

-Boy, you're great, Trolley.

Can you do any other neat stuff?

[WHISTLE]

[CHIMES]

Oh.

-Upside down?

[WHISTLE]

-Wow.

-Yeah.

-Oh, how, Trol?

[CHIMES]

OK.

And now what?

[WHISTLE]

Like this?

[CHIMES]

OK.

And now just--

[CHIMES]

-Whoa.

-Whoa!

Oh my goodness.

-Oh, Trolley, you're a hoot.

[WHISTLE]

-Oh, well, speaking
of hoots, we really

ought to let X and Henrietta
see how things look upside down.

-Oh, yeah, that's for sure.

-I'll see you all soon--
right side up, I hope.

-Oh, sure.

Here we go.

[WHISTLE]

[CHIMES]

-That's a relief.

Well, I'll see you all.

Toot toot.

-Bye.

-Toot toot, Lady Elaine.

Boy, that was fun, wasn't it?

-Oh, Trolley.

[SPEAKING GIBBERISH]

-So surprising.

-Hey, how in the world are you?

-Fine, X.

-Meow, meow everybody.

-Hi, Hen.

-Meow.

Meow heard meow, meow, meow,
meow, meow, meow Trolley.

-Yeah, well, Trolley can
do things off its tracks.

-Meow what?

-Well, we'll show you.

-Oh, OK.

[WHISTLE]

I didn't know about-- oh.

-Meow, meow, meow.

-How-- how does Trolley do that?

-We don't know, but
it seems that Trolley

can do all sorts of things.

-Yeah, off its tracks.

-Meow, meow wonder
meow, meow else.

-Oh, it's amazing.

KING FRIDAY: Lady
Aberlin, Robert Troll,

and Trolley to the
castle at once, please.

-Oh, we're wanted at the castle.

-Yeah.

-You mean you're going
to leave us like this?

-No.

Oh, no, X. Here we go.

Sorry.

[WHISTLE]

[CHIMES]

-Oh, boy.

I hope you'll bring
Trolley again.

-Meow, meow tracks meow.

-We will.

Won't we, Robert Troll?

-Well, if we're allowed.

Yeah.

We better hurry.

I wonder what's going
on over at the castle.

-Mayor Maggie, I presume.

-Correct, as usual, King Friday.

-And the reason for
your visit today?

-We're having Trolley
trouble again in Westwood.

-What kind of trouble?

-The Trolley didn't
come again today

to West-- why,
there's the Trolley.

-Hello, Mayor Maggie.

-Hello.

-Were you looking
for the Trolley?

-Yes.

It didn't make its scheduled
run to Westwood today.

-Yeah, well, it tried, but--
well, we can explain that.

Can't we, Lady Aberlin?

-Oh, yes, we can explain that.

Can't we, Uncle Friday?

-Yes, we can.

I suggest we all
repair to the E room

where we will explain some
of the extraordinary features

of the neighborhood Trolley.

Carry on, Trolley, to
your next generation.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[CHIMES]

-Did you ever wonder
what the world

was like before
you were even born?

Strange to think of your
not being here, isn't it?

But when you did
get born, you had

to have people who loved you,
for you to want to be healthy.

And the more you
grow, the more you'll

be able to help
other people know

that they are lovable, too.

That's what being a good
neighbor is all about.

Things look different
upside down, don't they?

I want to try something here.

Here are a couple
of pieces of paper.

And I just cut that little door
in the paper-- the top paper.

Put some tape in here.

And the ends.

Now if I draw something
in here, then it

will be like it has a
door there you can open.

Something like this could be
a good present for a friend

or for a mom or dad
or an aunt or an uncle

or a grandmother or grandfather.

If you made one like this,
to whom would you give it?

Giving something you make is
a way of saying I love you.

[SINGING] Cleaning up a
room can say I love you.

Hanging up a coat before
you're asked to do it.

Drawing special pictures
for the holidays.

And making plays.

You'll find many ways
to say I love you.

You'll find many ways to
understand what love is.

Many ways.

Many ways.

Many ways to say I love you.

-There are many ways
to show and tell people

that you love them-- feeding,
showing interesting things,

helping people find things.

You know, when you were a
baby, you hardly knew any ways.

Now you're discovering
more and more ways

of letting people know
how you feel about them.

The more ways you discover
that you can do that,

the more you'll know
that you've grown.

It gives me such a
good feeling to know

that you're growing
the way you are.

[SINGING] It's such a good
feeling to know you're alive.

It's such a happy feeling,
you're growing inside.

And when you wake
up, ready to say,

I think I'll make
a snappy new day.

It's such a good feeling,
a very good feeling,

the feeling you know that I'll
be back when the day is new.

And I'll have more
ideas for you.

And you'll have things
you'll want to talk about.

I will, too.

You always make each
day such a special day.

You know how.

By just your being you.

There's only one person in
the whole world like you.

And people can like
you exactly as you are.

I'll be back next time.

Bye bye.
