♪ Nobody knows for sure

Hmmmfff.

I think someone's in a grumpy mood today.

Why the big scowl?

Everyone went on a field trip this morning,

except for me. I had the sniffles.

That's too bad.

But there will be other field trips, yes?

Uh huh.

And you're better now.

All better.

Well then.

Let's say good-bye to the grumpies

and hello to the giggles!

Woodloddleoodleoodleoodle! Hehe.

[GROAN]

O-kay.

How's this?

♪ They've got wobbly tongues

♪ and flip-flappy laces,

♪ but these shoes take me

♪ to all the right places..

♪ Tralalala -looooooo! Hehe.

[SIGH] Grandpa...

[BELL RINGS]

A customer! Hehe.

Good afternoon! How can I help you?

As you can see...

My boots' bells are loose!

I can't be a jester without my bells!

I'll have those bells jingle jangling again in no time.

Would you put these in the fix-it box, please, Franny.

Hehe. OK Grandpa.

Where will my feet take me today?

[TWINKLES]

[GIGGLES AND LAUGHTER]

Twirling tootsies!

What a frantabulous place!

Woooaa-oof!

I'm sorry!

It's my shoes. I tripped on them.

Are you all right?

[GIGGLES]

I'm fine! I'm Franny. Who are you?

I'm Bart.

Why are you laughing?

The way you came flying in here and bumped -

kerplunk- into me... was kind of funny.

It was?

Uh uh...

That's great! Let's do it again.

Woah!! It won't be funny the second time.

It won't?

It was a surprise and well,

you can't keep bumping into people

just to hear them laugh.

That's true.

It's just that I've been trying all day to make people laugh.

How come?

My family runs this faire and I'm the Jester.

And Jesters are supposed to make people laugh.

But you're the only one who's so much as chuckled.

[SIGH] I can't make anyone snicker, let alone laugh.

I'm sure you can make me laugh again. Just try.

Uh, I guess I could do an impression.

You mean pretend you're someone or something?

Right. I'll do an impression of a monkey.

A monkey! Monkeys are very funny.

Ok, Here I go... [CLEARS THROAT]

"Ooo ooo ahhh ahhh eee eee eee."

Hmmmm...Maybe you should scratch your head and be more monkeyish.

Like this:

"Ooo ooo ahhh ahhh eee eeee!"

That might work! Okay, here goes:

Ooo ooo ahhh ahhh eee eee.

Uh, better?

Hmmm.

Uh, I don't think the monkey's working.

I know! Clowns! When my mum and dad took me

to the circus the clowns were funny.

I saw a clown tumbling when I was at the circus.

Everyone laughed and laughed. Watch this!

And now for some funny tumbling!

[CIRCUS MUSIC]

Ta daaaaa. Now you try it.

I think I could do something like that.

Wiggle your feet so the bells on your shoes jingle.

Wow!

Ugh. Ow! I'm stuck!

Jeepers! Are you okay?

Don't worry. I have another idea.


The stilt walking clown was a hoot.

This will really be funny!

Uh...But I don't know how to walk on stilts!!

It's simple. Just take a step---

Whoa!!! Whoa!!!

And then another--

WHOA!!! Ahh!

And you're stilt walking...

WHOA!!! Ahh!

...Sort of...

Woah!!! Ah Woahh!!

But that's good - that looks kind of funny!

Really? I look funny?

I can be a funny stilt walker---

Whoa!

Hey! Whoa! Whoa!

Or maybe not.

[GRUNTING]

I guess the ground is too soft for stilts...

...That's okay Bart.

I have another idea.

Oh!

Hmmm...Maybe a clown can juggle,

but I can barely do it.

That could be funny -

the jester who couldn't juggle!

The unjuggling jester.

Hey...that sounds good. Here I go!

Ooooh!

Wow - I'm better at this than I thought.

Whoops-- ...uh oh...uh..oof!

[GASP] Look out!

[GASP] Oh no!

[GASP]

All I did was make a big mess.

I just wasn't meant to be a jester.

[SIGH]

I can't do anything that will make people laugh.

Don't feel bad, Bart.

I'm sure there's something else you can do at the fair.

That's the problem.

There is nothing else I can do.

When I feel this sad,

all I want to do is talk to Jesty.

Who's Jesty?

I'm not funny Jesty and I'm never going to be funny.

[SILLY VOICE:] Don't worry I'll still stick around.

I am on a stick after all!

[GIGGLES]

You're laughing!

Jesty's funny.

He is?

[GIGGLE]

Sure! I'm a regular goof ball. Haha.

[GIGGLES]

[LAUGHS]

I got a nose for comedy.

I'm a stick with a shtick!

[GIGGLES]

[LAUGHTER]

They think you're funny!

Now I'm going to do my world famous tumbling act.

[GRUNT]

Wow! It's so high!! Ohhhh noooooooo!!

I'm falling.

[LAUGHING]

Franny! I found my funny!!

You sure did. I've got to go now.

My Grandpa will be wondering where I am.

[GIGGLE]

Good-by good-bye!

You're frannnn- tastic!

Bye Bart!

[TWINKLES]

That was a giggle.

[JINGLE]

Bart's jingle! [GIGGLE]

Another treasure for my shoebox.

[GIGGLE]

[GRANDPA HUMMING]

"Hello there, I'm Bart the jester!"

[DELIGHTED LAUGH]

Hello! Nice to meet you!

It's really me.

I found my funnies, grandpa!

Just like Bart.

You did? That's good.

Who's Bart?

The Jester!

He couldn't make anyone laugh but I helped him.

Could you teach me that song?

What song?

You know..

♪ They've got wibbly tongues

♪ and flip-flappy laces...

♪ But these shoes still take me ♪

♪ to all the right places...

♪ Tralalalaloooooo...

Why don't you and your jester friend

come and have a snack with me.


Okay!

♪ They've got wibbly tongues

♪ and flip-flappy laces...

♪ But these shoes take me to all the right places... ♪

♪ Tralalalaloooooo... Tralalalaloooooo... ♪♪

Where will my feet take me tomorrow?
