[ laughing ]

Oh, wonderful !
Yea !
Wow, that was great.

You kids
are terrific.
Pbj !

You know what, kids ?
That is the best present
anyone ever gave me.

- You made up that song
yourself ?
- Yeah !

- I didn't hear you
practicing.
- [ Giggling ]

We only practiced
when you were vacuuming,
so you couldn't hear us.

[ Imitating vacuum roar ]

Well, it was such
a nice surprise.

You know what ?
What ?

I think you should
share this surprise with all
the mothers on lake hoohaw.

Why don't you put on
a mother's day show ?

That's a fantastic idea, opal.
So how 'bout it, kids ?

Yeah !
What a great idea !

We need a name
for our band.

And we need to
make invitations.

Mrs. Duck !

Hi, mrs. Duck.

- Happy mother's day.
- Why, thank you, kids.

The sandwich is giving
a free mother's day concert.
And you're invited !

Huh ? The sandwich ?
Who's the sandwich ?

Us !
[ Giggling ]

It's the name
of our band.

I'll be there then.
Wouldn't miss it
for the world.

Jelly, this is
gonna take forever.

You're right.
We've gotta hurry if we're
gonna invite everyone.

I got it !
Come on !

[ All gasp ]

- [ Jelly ]
mrs. Raccoon !
- Huh ?

Man, I'm pooped.
[ popping sound ]

I think we invited
every mother on lake hoohaw.

[ Blubbering ]

Do you hear
that popping sound ?

That's just baby butter
making one of her
silly noises.

[ Blubbering, pops ]

No, it was something else.
I've been hearing it all day.

Oh, well.
[ popping sound ]

There it is again !
I heard it that time.

I think I know what it is.
Peanut, walk back and forth.

[ Squeaking, popping ]

[ jelly ]
peanut, it's coming
from your new shoes.

Ah, man. I hate that
about new shoes.

Come on, let's go home.

We have time
to practice one more time
before our big concert.

♪ We love you
hap-hap-happy mama's day ♪

♪ You're so great

- Well, what'd you think ?
- That wasn't good.

That was perfect !

Yes !
[ All chuckling ]

[ opal ]
okay, kids, you ready
for your concert ?

We sure are !

[ Chattering ]

Ooh, this is
so exciting !

I'm so proud
of those kids.

Sandwiches here !
Get your souvenir
sandwiches !

Get it ? Pbj's band's
called the sandwich,

So I made pbj sandwiches !

Huh ? [ Giggling ]
who's gonna buy one ?

- Aaah !
- No, scootch, no !

Yaaah !

[ Groans ]
cheese and crackers !

Sorry, sorry.
My fault.

Boy, there sure are
a lot of people out there.

There oughta be.
We invited every mother
on the lake.

[ Both gasp ]
aaah !

All right,
we gotta relax.

We have a cool song,
we practiced all week.

What could go wrong ?
Yeah.

[ scootch ]
yaah !
huh ?

No, scootch, stop !
Yaah !

[ Both gasp ]
[ loud clattering ]

- Uh-oh.
- Oh, scootch,
look what you did.

Sorry, sorry.
My fault.
Look at this.

My guitar--
it's smashed to bits.

So's my bass.

Butter,
how are your drums ?

[ Crying ]

Don't cry, baby butter.
Don't cry.

Now what are we gonna do ?
We can't play if we don't
have any instruments.

Look, baby butter.
Wanna see something funny ?

[ Honking sound ]
[ sniffles ]
huh ?

[ Rhythmic honking ]
[ blubbering ]

[ crowd chanting ]
we want the sandwich !
we want the sandwich !

we want the sandwich !
we want the sandwich !

- This is awful !
- Hey, I think I know
what we need to do.

- Leave right now
for a road tour ?
- No !

We gotta do
a noodle dance.
Noodle, noodle !

I'll do some thinking,
but no dancing.



♪ noodle

♪ noodle

♪ solve a problem

♪ use your noodle
that's your brain ♪

I've got it !

peanut ! Peanut !
peanut !

What ?
What happened ?
What ?

We get on a super jumbo jet,

fly to the instrument factory,
buy some new instruments...

and zoom,
we fly right back.

Great. Now all we need is
a jumbo jet and a ton of money
to buy the instruments.

But we don't have any money,
and I don't know
where the airport is.

We're doomed !
[ Blubbers, pops ]

- Huh ?
- Oh, no. What
are we gonna do ?

What are we gonna do ?
What are we gonna do ?

Hey, wait !
Maybe we don't need
any instruments.

- What ?
- Instruments aren't
the only way to make sounds.

We can make music
without them.

We want the sandwich !
We want the sandwich !

Ernest, what's
taking them so long ?
Hmm.

I don't know.
Well, I'm gonna
go check and see.

No, opal.
You're a mom.

This is mother's day.
Relax and enjoy.
I'll go see what's up.

Hey, kids, you
about ready to start ?
Uh-huh !

All right then.
I'll go introduce ya.
Have fun out there.

We want the sandwich !

Ladies and gentlemen,
and especially you moms,

It gives me great pleasure
to introduce to you...

The sandwich,
starring pbj !
[ applause ]

Ernest, I thought you said
everything was okay.

Why ? What's the matter ?
Where are
their instruments ?

- Ohh !
- Um, am I missing
something ?

Isn't a band supposed to
have instruments ?

[ All chattering ]
what are they going to do ?

Bootsie ?
Yes, ootsie ?

I think the sandwich
is gonna be a bit crummy.

Get it ?
Sandwich ? Crummy ?

One, two,
one, two, three, four !

- [ All ] mom !
- Be careful now, kids !

Wow, what do you know ?
Not my fault.

[ All laughing ]

[ All grunting ]

Ah, man !

Step right up
and take your chances !

Knock down the milk bottles,
and you'll win a toy truck.

- real metal.
- oh, dearest.

Everyone seems
to be missing.

Why, yes, my darling.
I bet I won't have to
give out a single prize.

Aah !

Sorry, sorry.
My fault. Yaaah !

Thank you.

hey, daddy !

So the snooties rented
this whole big fair...

Just because ootsie
and bootsie got accepted
into charm school ?

Their own fair.
They must be so excited.

Well, bootsie,
we rode all the rides.

Yes, ootsie, and we won
all the prizes.

Well, kids,
I think it's time
we were getting home.

wait, mama.
butter won the balloons.

I won this magnet,
but peanut hasn't
won a prize yet.

- I know, but it's--
- say, big fella.

- Wanna show everyone
how strong you are ?
- I don't think so.

Aw, come on.

There's nothin' to it.
Watch.

- [ Grunting ]
- [ bell dings ]

See ? Piece of cake.
Come on, give it a go.

Can he, mama ?
Can he try ?
Can he, can he ?

Okay, but this
is the last game.

It's late, and we've
got to get home.

Here you are.
Uh-- whoa !
Hold on.

I just have to
get a good grip.
[ Spits ]

[ Loud grunting ]

[ Grunting continues ]

This thing weighs a ton.
Okay, okay,
little buddy.

That's enough.
You come back in a few years,
and we'll see how you do then.

Don't feel bad, peanut.
It looked awfully heavy.

When I was your age,
I couldn't lift it either.

In fact, I wonder
if he could lift it now.

Yeah. I--
hey !

Sorry, sweetheart.
[ Kisses ]

i was just trying
to cheer up peanut.

[ Man on t] yes,
sports fans, it's power possum,
the world's strongest marsupial.

Look at this-- power possum
can lift a 600-pound barbell
with his tail...

And pull a bulldozer
with his teeth !

Kids, don't try this
at home.

[ Groaning ]
oh, man.

[ Giggling ]

[ Giggling continues ]
whoa, nellie !

Hey, peanut,
wanna come outside
and play rodeo with us ?

- No, thanks.
- Why not ?
What's the matter ?

Me. I'm what's the matter.

Why can't I be
more like that ?

- You wanna wear
a funny outfit ?
- You know what I mean.

When you're finished moping,
we'll be outside playing rodeo.

Giddyap !

I never saw peanut
so sad.

I wish there was a way
to cheer him up.

Ha ! Butter !
That's a great idea !

We can make a fake barbell
that peanut can lift
easy as pie !

Let's see.

We need something
big and round...

But real, real light.

perfect !

Ha.
[ Giggling ]

Great.

Butter, can I borrow
that broom handle ?

There.
Peanut can lift
these weights.

Whoo !
This will cheer him up
for sure.

Can I look yet ?
No.

yet ?
no.

Yet ?
Almost.

Okay.
Huh ?

Ta-da !
Come on, big guy !

Try to lift it.
Pick it up.

Are you kidding ?
I can't lift that.
Show him, butter.

Ooh, ooh !

We made it for you.
Go on, give it a try.

[ Whimpering ]
hey, look at me !

I'm a super strong
muscle guy !

Hurray, peanut !

♪ Look at me ♪

All right ! Whoo-hoo !
Yeah ! Hurray for peanut !

yee-haw !
faster, munchy, faster !

[ Panting ]
now it's my turn,
right, flick ?

Nah, I'm tired
of this game.

Wow ! Whoever thought
peanut was so strong ?

Why, he must be
the strongest kid
on lake hoohaw.

Peanut otter ?
Lake hoohaw's strongest kid ?

We'll just see
about that !

Hey, flick.
Hey, munchy.

Put her there, big guy.

Pretty strong grip
you got there, peanut.

Not bad yourself,
flick.

You're kinda strong
f-for an otter.

[ pinch ] help.
somebody, help us !
[ scootch crying ]

[ Crying continues ]

What's the matter,
pinch ?

Scootch's favorite
toy truck is stuck
under the rowboat.

- we can't get it out.
- is that all ?

Stand back, everyone !
I'll take care of this.

I don't know, flick.
That looks like
a pretty heavy boat.

Ha ! I laugh
at heaviness.

Stand back !
Weaklings.

[ Grunting ]

- Don't hurt yourself.
- Maybe if I bend my knees
a little more.

[ Grunting, gasps ]

Excuse me.

[ flick ]
aaaaah !

Now what do we do ?

Pinch, you don't have
anything to worry about,

Not when peanut otter's
around.
Uhh ! Um, munchy.

Peanut can lift this boat,
no problem.

Uh, munchy, i--

Peanut otter is
the strongest otter
in the world.

- [ Both ] ahh !
- Go on, peanut. Show 'em
how strong you are.

Peanut, what are you doing ?
You can't lift that boat.

[ Groans ]

Munchy, those barbells
you saw me lifting
were fake.

I'm not strong at all.

But that means
scootch will never
get his toy back.

[ Bawling ]

There must be something
we can do.

Hey, what if we all tried
to lift it together ?

[ Cheering ]
great idea.
Let's try it.

Okay, on three.

One, two, three.

[ All grunting ]

Man, I was sure teamwork
was gonna work.

Don't feel bad, peanut.
It was still good thinkin'.

Hey, wait a minute !
We didn't try
a noodle dance !

Yeah. Just 'cause we don't
have big muscles doesn't mean
we can't use our noodles.

Come on, everybody,
let's noodle !



♪ noodle ♪

♪ noodle

I've got it ! Pinch, what's
the toy truck made of ?

How should I know ?
It's just a metal truck,
that's all.

Metal !

Great ! Flick,
I'm gonna need some tape.

Everyone else,
wait here.

- I got the tape, peanut !
- What are you going to do
with that stuff ?

I'm gonna see if I
can get scootch's truck
to stick to this magnet.

[ clang ]
a-ha !

[ All ]
yea !

- Here you go, scootch.
- Thank you. Yaah !

Yaaah !
[ All laughing ]

- You did it, peanut.
- Three cheers for peanut.

Hip, hip, hooray !
Hip, hip, hooray !

Hip, hip, hooray !

So peanut saved the day
by using his brains
instead of his muscles.

Your magnet helped.

Still, it was a very
smart thing to do.

And one day, peanut,
you'll be smart and strong,

Just like your dad--
a-and your mom too.

[ opal ]
baby butter, what on earth
are you doing ?

[ Both ]
huh ?

[ Giggling ]
mmm.
