25x01 - Fast and Slow

[bunniefuu]

-[SINGING] 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.

See what I brought today?

Do you have any
idea what this is?

Pretty, isn't it?

These are empty tubes.

It looks a little like an organ.

But it's really a game.

And I'm going to show
you how it works.

I'm gonna put it right
down here on the floor.

It's a game for
dropping things in.

And I need to get some
things to drop in it.

Here.

First I'll try some balls.

See if I can--
there, we got one in.

Ooh.

Good.

Nice.

It's fun.

The balls go down very fast.

So I just thought we
might try some feathers.

See how the feathers go down.

Pretty.

You know, you could
pretend that you're

playing a game like this.

Even if you don't
have these things.

You could just pretend that
you have some tubes right

on your floor, and that you have
a pretend ball in your hand.

And just hold it over
the tube and go-- boop.

And you could pretend that you
have a feather in your hand.

And hold the feather like this.

And let it go.

And very slowly--

And then, with pretend, the
further could even come up.

[SINGING] I like someone.

Do you know who?

Yes, I like someone
who looks like you.

I like someone.

Do you know who?

Yes, I like someone who talks
like, and looks like, you.

I like someone.

Do you know who?

Yes, I like someone
who plays like,

and talks like,
and looks like you.

[KNOCKING]

Let's see who that
is at the door.

Maybe it's somebody
who-- oh, sure.

Mr. McFeely.

-Delivery.

-Could you come in a minute?

I have a game here.

-A game?

-Yep.

I thought you might like to try.

-Oh.

I like learning new games.

-Yep.

Well, what you do
is hold the ball

right over one of those tubes.

And see if you can
get it in the tube.

-And one of the tubes?

-Any one.

-Alrighty.

Let's try this one.

Well, didn't work that time.

-Here's another one.

-Alrighty.

I did it!

-You got it.

-I have a delivery here for you.

One of them is what you ordered.

Another one is something
that I want you to have.

-What is it?

-It's a picture of
Chainey Umphrey.

Do you remember him?

-Oh, I certainly do.

-He's grown a lot since
he's been here last.

-Oh, he has grown.

-Sometime this week he'll be
here showing his gymnastic work

to the children at school.

-Oh.

I hope you'll let me
know exactly when,

because I really
would like to see him.

-Oh, I will.

He's a grown-up,
world-class gymnast now.

-Oh, I know.

And I'm so proud of him.

-Oh, I almost forgot.

Here is the delivery
that you ordered.

-Oh, How People Make Strollers.

-Yeah.

Some time ago you
asked me to find it.

And there it is.

How People Make Strollers.

-Do you have time
to watch it with us?

-I do.

It's an interesting process.

-Well, let's just see
it on Picture Picture.

-All right.

Over to Picture Picture.

-Oh, thank you for this
picture of Chainey.

-You're welcome.

-How People Make Strollers.

Stroll.

-Stroll along.

All right.

-And I'll explain
it as we watch it.

-Very good.

In it goes to Picture Picture.

Let's watch how
people make strollers.

POSTMAN: When people
make strollers

they put many different
parts together.

MR. ROGERS: You mean
all of those parts

that we see there
are parts that are

going to be in the stroller?

POSTMAN: That's right.

MR. ROGERS: Well, where
do they all come from?

POSTMAN: Well, they're made
by people at another factory

and then sent to this factory
where people like this woman

put them together in
just the right way.

MR. ROGERS: Hm.

What's she doing now?

POSTMAN: She's putting
grease on these rods

that hold the front
set of wheels.

MR. ROGERS: Oh, grease.

POSTMAN: Mm-hm.

MR. ROGERS: Ah.

This'll be the front
wheels of the stroller.

POSTMAN: The front
wheels of the stroller.

MR. ROGERS: Now what?

POSTMAN: Well, then
she uses this tool

to add a bolt to each wheel.

And that holds the
wheels in place.

MR. ROGERS: I see.

POSTMAN: And now for
the wheel covers.

MR. ROGERS: The wheel covers.

Hm.

POSTMAN: Snaps them on.

Another set on the
other set of wheels.

And she checks to make sure
the wheels are all right.

And this piece is done and ready
for this man to do his job.

MR. ROGERS: I wonder
what he's doing.

POSTMAN: Well, he's
gonna use a machine

to bolt these parts together.

MR. ROGERS: Oh, I see.

POSTMAN: There's the machine.

They're being bolted together.

MR. ROGERS: Look at that.

POSTMAN: And then he
adds this whole piece

to the back set of wheels.

You see?

MR. ROGERS: Oh, it looks really
complicated, Mr. McFeely.

POSTMAN: Well, it is.

But you'll see.

It'll look like a
stroller pretty soon.

MR. ROGERS: All those parts
carefully put together.

POSTMAN: Now he sends this
part of a stroller on its way.

To this man.

MR. ROGERS: And what
does this man do?

POSTMAN: Well, first he puts
on the frame for the back rest.

You see, he's
getting it in place.

He has to make sure
he gets it just right.

MR. ROGERS: All those
little parts together.

POSTMAN: Very important,
those little parts.

And now the handle.

Bolts the handle on.

MR. ROGERS: Oh, it's looking
much more like a stroller now.

POSTMAN: Oh, it certainly is.

MR. ROGERS: There they
go, strolling along.

POSTMAN: Strolling along.

Now this man puts the back
rest and seat into place.

MR. ROGERS: Oh,
there's the back rest.

POSTMAN: The back rest.

Next, the seat.

See?

MR. ROGERS: Uh-huh.

Taking shape.

And what's this?

POSTMAN: Well, now it's
time for a soft cushion.

MR. ROGERS: He's
carefully looking at it.

POSTMAN: And of
course the seat belt.

MR. ROGERS: Oh, of course.

Anything that you would
ride in that moves,

you need a seat belt.

POSTMAN: That's right.

MR. ROGERS: What's this?

POSTMAN: That's the hood.

MR. ROGERS: Ah, I see.

POSTMAN: Now this
is the front cover.

Well, there they are.

The finished strollers.

Ready to be used by
lots of families.

-That's very interesting.

I often wondered about that.

-Well, I did too.

Especially when I was
strolling my grandchildren.

-Oh.

Did you stroll them
fast or slowly?

-Well, when they were in the
stroller, I was very careful.

-No speedy delivery with them.

-No speedy delivery.

But when they weren't
in the stroller,

I used it one day
to carry a delivery.

And I pushed it a
lot faster that day.

Oh, speaking of
speedy deliveries, I

have a lot more to do today.

A lot more speedy deliveries.

-Do you ever do a slow delivery
instead of a speedy delivery?

-Well, if someone wants one.

Usually people want
a speedy delivery.

-Yes.

Well, thank you for
the speedy deliveries

you brought to us today.

-Well, you're welcome.

And I'll see you around
the neighborhood.

-All right, Mr. McFeely.
-Bye-bye.

-Bye-bye.

[SINGING] Yes, I like someone
who delivers like Mr. McFeely.

Here's the trolley.

I was just thinking,
you know, the trolley

can go fast and slowly.

Let me see if I
can show you here.

See how slowly it can go?

Now, try fast.

Fast.

Well, let's make believe that
the trolley is going fast

and slowly in the
Neighborhood of Make-Believe.

All right?

Are you ready for that, trolley?

OK.

That's right.

Neighborhood of Make-Believe.

[TRUMPETS PLAYING]

-Uh, neighborhood
trolley, I presume.

[WHISTLING]

Did I notice that you
were going extra-fast

and extra-slow today?

Will you try going
fast again, please?

Oh.

Very well done, trolley.

Now you may try going slowly.

-Is there something
wrong with you, trolley?

-Mayor Maggie, I presume.

-Oh, King Friday.

I'm sorry.

I didn't notice you.

Yes, correct, as
usual, King Friday.

Is there something
wrong with the trolley?

-On the contrary.

Everything is right
with the trolley.

-But it was moving so slowly.

-At our request.

Now, watch.

Trolley, you may
try going fast now.

-Wow.

That is fast.

It'll probably be in
Westwood in no time.

-Now, what brings you to our
neighborhood, Mayor Maggie?

Some special offering, perhaps?

-I came on some business
with Cornflake S. Pecially.

Rocket business.

-I see.

No special offering?

-You mean for you?

-I do enjoy a musical offering
now and then, you know.

-How about peace and quiet.

-That would be lovely.

Themselves, and in song.

-[SINGING] Peace and
quiet, peace, peace, peace.

Peace and quiet,
peace, peace, peace.

Peace and quiet,
peace, peace, peace.

We all want peace,
we all want peace.

-Beautiful.

Beautiful offering.

-I'm glad you like it.

Now, if you'll excuse me--

-Uh, before you
go, Mayor Maggie,

could you sing that same
song, only very fast?

-Very fast?

-Yes.

Just to see what it sounds like.

-I'll try.

[SINGING] Peace and quiet,
peace, peace, peace.

Peace and quiet,
peace, peace, peace.

Peace and quiet,
peace, peace, peace.

We all want peace,
we all want peace.

-Very different, isn't it?

-Very different.

Which do you like better?

-There's something
about the slow way that

seems right for peace and quiet.

-I agree.

Now, I must get to my
meeting at the factory.

-Farewell, Mayor Maggie.

Thank you for musical
peace and quiet.

-Farewell, King Friday.

You're most welcome.

[SINGING] Peace and
quiet, peace, peace peace.

Peace and quiet,
peace, peace, peace.

Corny.

[SINGING] Peace and quiet,
peace, peace, peace.

Peace and quiet,
peace, peace, peace.

Peace and quiet--

-Mayor Maggie?

Oh, there you are.

-Yes, Mr. Pecially.

I've been thinking about fast
and slow, peace and quiet.

-Well, you sure
could use some peace

and quiet around a factory.

-I bet you can.

-Lots of noise and racket here.

Now, you said you were
interested in some stroller

rockets?

-Yes, for our little
ones in Westwood.

-Well, I have one model
that I can show you.

Before I bring
it, would you turn

off this motor here, please?

-All right.

-No, not up there.

Right there-- yeah.

That's it.

Thanks very much.

I'll be right back.

Here it is.

What do you think?

-Hm.

-Yes.

Now, you can just
try it right here.

-All right.

-Just roll it along.

And you'll see.

-Like this?

-You see?

It rocks at the same
time as it strolls.

-Oh.

It's just what I wanted.

-It is?

-Are they all the
same color and fabric?

-Oh, now.

In fact, you can
come inside and we'll

show you the different
colors and materials and all.

-All right.

You have quite a fine
factory here, Mr. Pecially.

-I'm glad you like
it, Mayor Maggie.

Come along.

Come in.

-All right.

-Oh, before you come in, would
you turn this motor on again?

We'll need it.

-Right there.

-Right.

Thanks so much.

See you inside.

-Wow.

Very peaceful in this
neighborhood right now.

I don't see Mayor Maggie.

I don't see anybody,
for that matter.

Anymore I wonder if it could
be something about the tracks

that's making the
trolley go so fast.

Better not lean across there.

It might come
speeding around here.

I wonder if Lady Elaine
and her boomerang

have anything to do with this.

I hope Daniel's at home.

-Somebody knocking on my clock?

Chuck Aber, Daniel.

-Oh, Neighbor Aber, how are you?

-I'm fine.

But I'm concerned about
the neighborhood trolley.

-Oh.

Is it lost again?

-No.

But it's going so fast it--
it really can't do its job.

-Where did you see it?

-Whizzing by in Westwood.

And I've been looking for Mayor
Maggie to tell her about it.

-I think she's a
Corny's factory.

-Oh, really?

I was just there.

I didn't see her, but-- oh.

Perhaps she went inside.

-Probably.

-Well, thanks, Daniel.

I'll look there.

-Oh, before you
go, would you take

one or two to help
me with something?

-Well, of course.

I always have an extra
one or two for you.

-All right.

I'll go get it.

Just a minute.

-Alrighty.

I wonder what it is.

Oh.

-This is the first part of it.

-First part of it.

I wonder what--

-This is the second part of it.

-Oh.

-You take that one.

-I have this.

There's more?

Wow.

-This is the third part of it.

-Three-- and a third part.

OK.

-That's right.

So the thing is, what
you're supposed to do

is to try to get the ball
into one of these things.

-Try to get the ball
into one of these--

-Now you try one.

-All right.

Just go like that?

-No, no.

Hold it up, and then drop it in.

-Oh.

That's a little more difficult.

Oh!

-You find it?

-In fact, that's very difficult.

-Try once more.

-No, you try again.

-No, you try.

-OK.

-That one's yours.

-I'll try this.

-OK.

-Oh!

-Very good.

-Now it's your turn.

There you go.

There you are.

-Thanks.

Let me see now.

Which one will I try?

-Oh!

That was close, Daniel.

-You find it?

Boy, that ball rolls
very fast when it--

-OK, now you try.

-Which reminds me.

-What?

-I need to find Mayor Maggie.

-Oh, OK.

Well, thanks for playing
with me, Neighbor Aber.

-Oh, of course.

I always enjoy playing with you.

In fact, when I figure out
what to do with the trolley,

I'll come back and we'll
play some more, OK?

-Oh, good.

I like playing with you, too.

Does that mean
that we're friends?

-I hope so.

See you later.

-OK, Friend Aber.

-Bye-bye.

Fast!

Slow.

Fast!

Very slowly.

Walking-- Mayor Maggie!

-Oh, that was great timing.

I wanted you to see some of
these pieces of material.

-Goodness.

And I needed to talk to you
about a trolley problem.

-What's going on
with the trolley?

I just saw it a
little while ago.

-Oh, it's moving very fast.

-Oh, yes.

It can go quite fast.

But it can go slowly, too.

-Well, that's true.

But nobody has seen it
going slowly lately.

In fact, it's scaring a lot
of the neighbors in Westwood.

That's why I wanted
you to know about it.

-Hm.

I'll go into the castle and
talk with King Friday about it.

In the meantime, you
could take these samples

and show them to the
citizens in Westwood.

-OK.

Oh, here comes the trolley now.

Trolley--

-Wait a minute, trolley.

I just want to show you
my control box here.

This is what makes the trolley
go fast and slowly, this one.

And this turns it on and off.

Like that.

Yeah.

OK, thanks, trolley.

You see, it's only in
a make-believe place,

where everything is
pretend, that a trolley

could run itself.

But what do you think they
could do in Make-Believe

to get the trolley to slow down?

We'll think more
about that next time.

But right now I'd
better feed the fish.

They may be hungry.

Want some food, fish?

There.

Beautiful fish.

Hm.

I love to see them swim.

You know, fish have to stay
in water to be able to live.

We people live
with air around us.

While the fish live with
water all around them.

Isn't it interesting to
think about things like that?

Yeah.

I need to clean up here.

Feathers.

Into the basket.

Get the balls out, here.

[SINGING] You are my friend.

You are special.

You are my friend.

You are special to me.

There's only one in
this wonderful world.

You are special.

There is so much to
know and so much to do.

And so many interesting
things to think about.

I'm really glad we're able
to have these times together.

Gives me a good feeling.

[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 it.

I will too.

You always make each
day such a special day.

You know how.

By just your being yourself.

Only one person in
this whole world

like you, whether you're
going fast or slowly.

You know who it is.

It's you yourself.

And people can like
you exactly as you are.

I'll be back next time.

Bye-bye.

No it's.
