Oh, hello, everybody!

Oh, you're doing great.

Keep it up.

So, is everybody ready?

You bet! Yep!

Okay, then here I go.

Oh, backwards.

Whoa.

Whoa!

Way to go!

Oh, thank you. Thank you very much.

Would you like to try, Riff?

Oh, yes, please. Okay, here you go.

Oh, thanks, Barney.

Okay, Riff, come on.

Here I go. Here I go.

To the free throw line, and...

Oh.

(laughter)

Well, that was almost a close one.

Great try, Riff. Oh, thanks, Barney.

Now it's your turn, Terry.

All right, check out this cool move I've been working on.

BJOkay, let's see it.

Come on. Show us what you got.

Whoa, whoa. Oh, yeah.

Whoa, whoa. Whoa!

Oh, man! That was amazing.

(laughter)

That was awesome! Uh-huh. Yeah!

Oh, Terry, do you think

you could teach me that move, please?

We could sure try. Come on.

All right.

Whoa. Let's see.

All right, this is what you do.

You go between the legs... Yeah?

go behind your back... Got the back.

you spin... Spinning.

and you jump for a lay-up.

And lay-up.

Way to go!

All right, well, I have to go now,

so maybe you could practice on your own, okay? Yeah.

And don't expect to get it right off.

It takes time, BJ.

Okay, got it.

Okay. All right. Wow.

See you guys later.

See you later, Terry. Bye.

Thanks, Terry.

That Terry's really cool, huh?

Yeah, he made it seem easy and fun.

He was, um... having a ball.

Oh, Barney! Oh, brother!

Here. Thanks.

Hey, check this out, Barney.

Okay.

Bounce the ball

and you go under the leg

and then go around like this.

I like that. Whoa!


Oh, man. Almost, BJ.

Okay, let me try again.

All right. Okay.

Bounce the ball between the legs,

go around, around like this.

Oh, man!

You're doing better than me, Beej. Oh!

I'm sure Terry practiced a long time

before he learned it.

When something's hard to do, you have to keep trying.

You're right.

That's exactly what I'm going to do.

Great. Wait up.

We can learn to do a lot when we keep trying and trying.

(muttering)

Oh!

Okay...

(chuckling)

RIFFI wonder what BJ's doing over there.

Whoa!

Oops, sorry, Riff.

That's all right.

Wow, BJ's sure has been practicing a long time,

don't you think, Barney?

BARNEYHmm, maybe we should see how he's doing.

Yeah.

Will you excuse us for a minute, Ava and Laura?

Sure, Barney.

We can play some more later.

GIRLSSee ya later.

See ya in a bit. RIFFBeej.

Oh!

So, uh, how you doing, BJ?

I can bounce and spin,

but I still can't do the behind-the-back part.

Oh, well, uh, maybe

you should play with us for a while, Beej.

We're having lots of fun.

I'm not trying to have fun, Riff. Oh.

I'm trying to learn that move Terry does.

(chuckling)Oh, okay, Beej.

I'm going to go play with Ava and Laura.

All right, bye.

Remember, the more you practice, the better you'll be.

But, Barney, I've been practicing all day

and I still can't get it right.

♪ And I never get anything right ♪

♪ Doing my best doesn't seem good enough ♪

♪ No matter how hard I try ♪

♪ Will I ever be brave and reach for the sky? ♪

♪ So why can't I?

Okay, BJ, you can do this.

Now, bounce twice,

behind the back, spinning and...

Oh!

I'll get it, Beej!

I'm never going to get this!

I give up!

Give up? Oh, no! You're doing great.

Here. Watch this.

Okay. Here we go. Watch my skills.

And take it to the hoop. And... Wahoo!

Nice try, Riff.

Did you see that, guys?

Did you see it?

Yeah, it was... well...

Riff? Yeah?

You missed.

Well, I know.

But at least it was fun!

You did good, Riff.


Aw, thanks, Ter.

Hey, BJ, is something wrong?

BJ's been trying to learn to sh**t baskets like you, Terry.

I practiced and practiced all day,

but I just can't do it.

You should have seen me when Ie first started.

You don't know how long it took me to make that shot.

Oh?

And I gave it my best,

and that's all I could do.

After a lot of practice--

and I'm talking a lot of practice--

I finally got it. See what I mean?

I think so.

And that's all anyone can ask, BJ.

Just do your best, and have fun while you're doing it.

I don't know, Barney.

BARNEYUh-huh.

(sighs)

Okay, guys, I'm going to go for it!

And this is going to be fun!

Yay, BJ!

Hey, everyone, BJ's going to go for it.

All right.

You should get a picture of this.

I'm good at having fun. All right!

(laughing)Oh-h*!

(crowd groaning) BARNEYAlmost!

But did you see that?!

I almost did it!

I was that close!

And it was fun.

That was tee-rrific, BJ!

Sure was, BJ.

All right, well, I have to go,

but we can play together tomorrow. How's that?

Oh, that's awesome!

All right, well, I'll see you guys later.

Can I play with you guys, too, Beej?

Yeah. That'd be cool, Riff.

Thanks.

Let's roast marshmallows!

Yay! That will be good.

I love marshmallows.

So good!

Now, who wants to hear a bedtime story?

I do! Me, me, me! I do! I do!

Okay, this is the story about...

The Little Star that Fell from the Sky.

"Once upon a time, a little star lived high in the sky.

"Every night, it looked down on the earth

"and saw pretty lights far below.

"The little star wanted to see the beautiful lights up close,

"so it floated down to Earth.

Oh, but soon,

"it was morning, and that's bedtime for stars.

"The little star jumped as high as it could,

"but it wasn't able to get back to the sky.

The little star thought it would never get back home."

Oh, the poor little star!

"It blinked to the other stars, 'Help! Please help me!'

"So the other stars made a long chain

"all the way down to the ground,

"and they gave the little star a hand up to the sky.

Oh.

"The little star was very happy to be home,

and every night, you can still see it twinkling in the sky."

The end. Oh, yay!

I knew the little star would get back home.

That was a good story, Barney.

'Course there's no way it could ever happen.

Oh, BJ, it could, too.

Couldn't it, Barney?

Most anything can happen, if you just imagine.

Oh, Barney.

Wow.

Oh... What are you looking at, Barney?

Just about anything I can imagine.

Right now, I'm looking at a great big rabbit.

A rabbit?

Uh-huh.

Where?

Up there.

I don't see anything but stars.

You just have to look closely

and use your imagination.

GIRLI see it! Do you see it?

I see it!

Oh, I see it. I don't see anything.

Well, let me try! Um... let's see.

I think I'll imagine...

my pretty tiara!

Oh...

Oh, I did it!

See it? Do you see it? Oh, boy.

Oh, I do. There it is.

I still don't see anything.

Well, it's easy, BJ.

Just imagine real hard and...

Oh! Oh, no!

A star fell out of my tiara!

Oh... Are you sure

you didn't just imagine it, Sissy?

No, BJ. It really fell,

and I have to find it!

Oh, where did it go?


♪ Twinkle, twinkle, little star ♪

♪ How I wonder where you are ♪

Oh... Gotcha!

Whoa.

Sissy, that's not a star.

It's a lightning bug.

Oh, you're right, BJ.

That star didn't fall here.

I guess I just imagined it.

Oh... I think I'll go to sleep.

Good night, everybody!

Good night, Baby Bop.

Good night, Baby Bop.

Aw, poor Sissy.

Too bad we can't get her another star.

Well... maybe we can.

Here you go, BJ.

Oh, Barney, these are going to look really cool.

Stars...

Oh, come on, Lily.

Let's put up some of that yarn.

Okay, Barney.

All right, here we go.

And up we go.

There, all done!

Oh, great.

Guys, watch this.

Okay.

Sissy...

Huh?

Sissy!

W-What? Huh?

Sissy, wake up!

What?! BJ, I just

got to sleep.

Why did you wake me...?

(gasps) Stars! Stars!

(Barney laughing)

Do you like them, Baby Bop?

Yes!

We found them in the caboose.

And we hung them up for you.

Well, thank you, everybody!

You're welcome.

But there's still one star

missing in my tiara, up there.

Well, maybe we can put one of these up there

to take its place.

Sure! We could do it-- if we imagine really hard!

Here you go, Barney.

Well, thanks, Tyler.

Now let's blow on this star to get it started on its way.

One, two, three...

(all blowing)

Whoa. Whoa.

It's going up.

BJOh... Unbelievable!

Hooray!

That's terrific.

Unbelievable.

That is so cool.

Yeah.

(Barney humming)

Oh. Now the star is home,

and it looks so pretty in my tiara.

And in plenty of time for bedtime.

Speaking of bedtime, I'm getting sort of sleepy.


Yeah, me, too.

Maybe it's about time we all got to bed.

Oh... Okay.

But before I go to sleep,

I'm gonna look for some more pictures in the stars.

Come on, guys.

Barney...

I'm so glad BJ can see the pictures in the stars now.

Me, too.

He's lucky to have a sister like you to help him.

He sure is.

And I feel lucky to be on a campout

Oh, boy! Okay.
