(Music stopping)

Dad!

Aww, sorry to throw shade on your squad, honey.

Uh, hashtag embarrassed. Heh-heh.

He's been practicing.

But we just got an emergency plumbing call

for a clogged shower drain on some kind of tour bus.

So, Mom and I need to go see this, uh, Jessica Beeker?

-(gasp) -We should be back in--

(grunting)

All (shouting): Jessica Beeker?

Oh, Dad, can we please come with you?

Jessica Beeker is the best. And I'm her biggest fan and--

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! How do you know her?

Who is Jessica Beeker?

Uh...

Oh...I see.

Dad, I just know Jessica and I are destined to be besties.

(giggling)

Woo-hoo!

(giggling)

Woo-hoo!

(laughing)

♪

(giggling)

So, obviously, we've gotta go.

Yeah, he left a while ago.

You were daydreaming for a long time!

But before he left, he said we could go to meet Jessica!

(gasp) Yes! Yes, yes, yes!

Yes!

Mom: RShe has a clogged drain.ed That can be pretty emotional.

-Yep. -No problem.

-Agreed. -Promise.

(whispering) I had my fingers crossed.

(giggling)

"Bother Jessica"?

Her and I are going to be besties!

Like, forever besties! For life!

Maybe, but don't get upset

if it doesn't go exactly like that, okay?

And try to calm down a little.

A lot of fans get star struck

when they meet their heroes in person.

(car alarm sounding) What?

No! She's awesome. I'm awesome.

We are gonna be awesome friends.

It's going to be awesome!

Mom: Frankie?

Frankie, are you okay?

Heh-heh. She's usually much less...

paralyzed.

That's cool. It happens sometimes.

Hey! It's great to meet you, Frankie!

We should get started on the shower.

Um, maybe you can direct us, Jessica?

This place is huge!

Yeah, this is the first bus I've been on

where you need a GPS inside!

Sure thing. Follow me.

It was great meeting you, Frankie.

Hopefully, you feel better soon so we can hang out!

So, that went pretty great, huh?

I guess it wasn't the worst introduction I've ever seen.

Mr. Squiggles, I'd like you to meet Chunk!

Hey, nice to meet ya.

(exploding)

Oh, my, I am so sorry about that.

I am testing the new Squigglebots.

It is very nice to meet you.

(exploding)

In hindsight,

the handshake self-destruct may have been a bad idea.

No hard feelings?

(screaming)

Sorry. I'm not quite there yet.

When she comes back,

we should surprise Jessica with an awesome performance

of Dreams O'Clock. And she'll want to be besties forever.

You keep saying "forever,"

but, umm, you'll still have time for us

when you're famous,

and hanging out with Jessica Beeker all the time, right?

You guys are always gonna be my best besties!

But it'd be sweet to have some world famous pop star

human besties too, right?

Sounds good to us!

Now, which one of the showers on Jessica's tour bus

do you think got clogged?

Dad said there was like, eight.

It's just such a thrill for Frankie.

She has all your music and posters and... well...

all your everything!

(grunting)

That's cool. I love meeting fans.

And from everything you've told me about her,

I think we're gonna totally hit it off!

(humming fanfare)

(Dad grunting)

Pip! What are you, uh--

And now, performing a song made famous

by the amazing Jessica Beeker,

it's Frankie and the Zhu Zhu Pets with... Dreams O'Clock.

Cool! Bring it on!

(song playing) ♪ What time is it It's dreams o'clock ♪

♪ What time is it It's dreams o'clock ♪

Oh, no! Frankie's frozen again!

Uh, it's okay.

Maybe no one will even notice she's not singing.

(Zhu Zhus singing along) ♪ The answer got to come from you ♪

♪ Get in the game victory's a lock ♪

♪ What time is it ♪

♪ It's dream's o'clock ♪

Woo! That was awesome, you guys!

In fact, I think you should join me onstage

for that song tonight!

(cheering)

You guys come too! Oh, and bring Penny!

Did you guys hear that? Uhh--

Hey, just because she got your name wrong, it doesn't mean--

You guys are going on stage with Jessica!

(squealing)

All: Whew!

If the Zhus are performing with Jessica,

we'll have tons of time to become besties!

Oh, and, uh, from now on, my name's "Penny," okay?

(Jessica singing) ♪ What time is it ♪

♪ It's dreams o'clock ♪

Great rehearsal, you guys!

Nice work, Zhus! We're gonna rock tonight!

Yeah!

See? Told ya!

Whoa, must be somebody pretty important coming tonight

to have that much delicious food set out!

Ha! That food is for you guys!

(muffled) So, we can eat it?

This is so cool!

But I'm totally blowing my chance

to be friends with Jessica!

Don't forget, Frankie, the only reason we're even here

is because you taught us Jessica's songs.

I wanna impress her so bad.

Did you guys tell her that I'm cool?

That I actually talk and stuff, and that I'm not a mannequin?

Umm, we were kinda too busy rehearsing

to talk about anything.

Oh! if I'd brought a Squigglebot, I could have done both!

Relax, Frankie.

Just be yourself. And Jessica will totally dig you!

You guys are right! We need to really turn on the charm!

"Charm", you say?

Well "Charm" is my middle name.

Embarrassing... (smacking lips) and delicious!

(crowd murmuring)

(cheering)

Frankie: Jessica! Woo! You're the best!

Yeah, Jessica! Jessica, hey!

It's me, Frankie! Or Penny! Or whatever!

Hey.

Wow! She remembered me! Woo!

Oof!

Yeah! Give it up for the band!

Hooray!

All right! For my last song of the night,

I wanna invite some new friends up onstage

to help me out.

Ladies and gentlemen, The Zhu Zhu Pets!

(cheering)

Wow! Look at the Zhus! They really are rock stars!

(cheering)

Woo-hoo! Zhu Zhu Pets! Zhu Zhu Pets!

(cheering)

What? I know these guys! Woo-hoo-hoo!

Woo-hoo hoo-hoo!

Whoa!

I've gotta talk to Jessica!

Frankie, wait!

Woooo! I got dreams! Big dreams!

It's dreams o'clock, baby! Woo-hoo-hoo!

(cheering in distance)

Yeah!

That was so fun!

We rocked! k*lled it!

That was amazing, you guys!

Okay, listen, you guys.

First, that was easily the best thing

that's ever went into my earholes in my whole life.

Wow, thanks, Frankie!

So, before you leave,

I just wanted to make sure you knew

how much I'll always love you guys!

Wait. Frankie, I don't think you--

Jessica, these Zhus are my best friends.

And I want them to be happy on tour.

So, you're gonna need to remember a few things.

But Frankie-- But Frankie--

Please, guys!

Chunk needs his extra firm fur mousse.

Nums needs her rainbow papa Zhu night light.

Pip needs a power seed log shake every afternoon at 3:00

to be in peak physical form.

(sobbing) And Squiggles needs--

Frankie, whoa! Just wait!

Frankie, we're not going anywhere.

What?

I did ask them to come on tour with me, but--

We said we'd never leave you!

And now I know why.

You're obviously an amazing friend,

especially when you're not pretending to be a statue.

(laughing)

You guys are really lucky to have each other.

And next time I'm in town,

I hope we can all hang out again!

That would be awesome.

Well, I guess that means I've gotta head out.

Take care, you guys! I'll see you soon!

And nice work tonight, Zhus. You totally k*lled.

I love you guys.

(clearing throat)

Hey. Hi. I just-- Uh, great show.

And, I-- Can I just get your autograph?

Dad!

What? They were awesome!

(imitating guitar shredding)

(laughing)

Power Badge Girls are never scared.

On land or sea, we always come prepared!

Don't mess with the best, 'cause we're proud and tough.

Power Badge Girls have got the stuff!

(cheering)

Well, guess your first Power Badge Girls meeting

was a success, huh, kiddo?

It was great!

I've already earned two badges:

Super Enthusiasm

and Excellence in Reciting the Alphabet Backward!

But I wanna to get them all!

Yes! Sounds like someone's got a case of badge fever!

That sounds serious. Uh, is it contagious?

It's okay, Nums. It just means I'm pumped up!

Ohhh...

Well, besides, it's nothing compared to disco fever!

(disco music playing) (grunting)

Well, that's certainly not contagious.

Uh-huh... yeah!

Yeah!

Anyway, if I collect all 100 badges,

I'll get to be in the Power Badge Girls Hall of Fame!

Look at all Mom's badges!

Mom, did you get in the Hall of Fame? Did ya?

Yeah, did ya? Did ya?

(sighing)

I had badge fever too when I was your age.

I worked hard to earn every badge I could,

but I... I missed... one.

My camping badge... I never got it.

But camping's easy. You just stay outside and camp.

Outside is fine.

It's about being outside at night, in the--

(gulping)

Dark. I'm afraid of the dark!

(screaming) Ooh!

Mom? Ahh!

Oops, heh, my bad.

Oh, no, it's no big deal.

I don't need that badge...

or to be in the Hall of Fame,

like your grandmother and her mother.

You just need help getting over your fear, Mom.

We could go camping with you!

To the woods! Science shall prevail!

No problem! Camping solves everything!

Uh, what's that ringing? Ring, ring!

Oh, it's the phone. I better get that!

I can't believe she won't go--

Hang on. Let's give her time.

Why don't we wait to see what she says

when she's done on the phone.

What?

So, we gotta get Mom to go camping

so she can get into the Hall of Fame, right?

Absolutely.

She pretty much begged us to.

Hmm.

Hmm. But how?

We could project a hologram outside

to make it look like it's inside!

Wow! That sounds great!

The only problem is that it's completely impossible to do.

But otherwise, it's perfect.

Well, that sounds like an idea for the maybe pile.

Anyone else?

Ooh, we blindfold her for a game

of pin the tail on the Zhu Zhus,

Then we keep telling her she's getting warmer,

until she's in the woods!

-Maybe pile! -Maybe pile!

Aha!

(grunting)

Ain't no party like a tie up Mom for her own good

and drag her into the woods in a wagon party!

We gotta convince Mom it'll be fun to go camping.

I really want her to get that badge.

Mom, can I talk to you for a second? Wow!

Let's... go... camping.

Huh?

Umm, we were gonna have a hamster rodeo?

(imitating horse neighing)

Get along, li'l hamster. Yeehaw.

But camping sounds better.

Let's... Zhu this.

Ugh, sounds cooler when we say it though, right?

Definitely. That was not good.

I feel queasy.

That one looks like a Ferris wheel.

That one looks like a hotdog, or a banana split,

or a full-stocked refrigerator. Also, when's dinner?

That one looks like a sheep!

Hmm, actually, they all look like sheep.

See, Mom? Isn't this relaxing?

Ah! That sheep is blocking out the sun! Bad sheep! Dark!

See, Mom? It was just a cloud.

(sighing)

(laughing) Right, right, just a cloud.

Seriously though, when is dinner?

(sighing)

This is actually quite lovely.

I mean, just-- just look at that sunset.

Ahh! Uh... Too-- too dark!

(wind blowing)

Ahh! Too windy!

(owl hooting)

Too hooty!

You're okay, Mom. We're all here.

-(howling) -Ahh!

W-w-was that a wolf?

(grunting)

(howling)

Smaller than a wolf, and pokier... a porcupine.

Ow. Ow. Ow.

(sighing)

Uh, maybe it's time we turn on our flashlights.

All: Whoa!

See? Empty! This is what I've been talking about.

Can we eat now?

Good idea, Chunk.

Uh, let's sit by the fire and roast marshmallows, okay, Mom?

It's-- It's just that, heh... who-- who-- who knows what's-- -what's out there?

Umm, we'll just go take a look, okay, Mom?

(whispering) Okay, we need to get Mom to calm down.

We need to find a way to distract her from her fear.

Shall I sit on the porcupine again?

Umm, how about we... play shadow puppets instead?

Great!

Mom, do you want us to do some shadow puppets? Huh? Huh?

That sounds nice.

Look at the bunny go hoppity-hop.

Ooh. I love bunnies.

(howling)

(squeaking)

You see, wolves are natural predators to bunnies.

(whimpering)

Uh, new game... how about hide and seek? Mom's it!

(whispering) Does she know she's it?

Maybe we should play a game where we all stay by the fire.

Okay, in this game,

we tell a story by each adding the next word.

I'll start. (clearing throat)

Once...

There.

Was.

A.

Nice.

Huge.

Scary.

Hairy.

Creepy.

Smelly.

Umm--

Monster! (screaming)

What? You hesitated,

so you lost your turn. There are rules.

Umm, maybe we've had enough fun for one night.

Uh, let's just try and get some sleep.

(owl hooting)

It's going to be fine.

There's nothing scary about sleeping.

Unless you're having a nightmare!

A terrible, terrible nightmare!

In the woods, at night! I wish I could stop talking now!

And terror.

(sighing)

(gasp)

(screaming)

(panting)

Bed check! You good, Ellen?

Uh-huh...

Oh, umm, why don't I just go ahead and get that for you?

(snoring)

Ohh...

(thundering) Ahh!

Relax, Mom. It's just a bit of thunder and lightning.

And an alien!

(screaming)

(screaming)

Hey, guys! Did you know

we left all these extra marshmallows out there?

What's wrong? I heard a scream?

That's it! We're going home now.

Mom, come back!

There's nothing to be afraid of!

(thundering)

(gasping)

Oh, well, scientifically speaking,

it could be worse.

-(thundering) -Whoa!

Mind you, science isn't a perfect, umm, science.

(gasping)

To that cave!

Great, nothing bad ever happens in a cave.

(whimpering)

Except in that story about the cave

that was dark, wet and scary and--

Huh?

What is wrong with me today?-

Maybe we should start a fire.

Well, the matches are a bit damp.

Maybe we can dry them by the fire!

Oh, right.

(sigh) I knew this was a bad idea. I-- I can't do it.

I'll never get my camping badge.

Huh? Mom, you can do anything... look.

Oh! Is that-- Is that my sash?

Before you were a Power Badge Girl,

you couldn't do any of this stuff.

But you put your mind to it, and earned all those badges!

Swimming, needlepoint, dog grooming,

there's nothing you can't do.

Which is why you're the only one who can get us out of this mess.

What do you say?

Hmm.

A pep talk like that deserves... a speech giving badge!

Thanks!

But, uh, don't you need this?

Being a Power Badge Girl

isn't about how many badges are on your sash.

(grunting)

(blowing)

It's about what you do with them.

(gasping)

I'm gonna go get whatever supplies we left out there.

In the dark? Alone?

Don't you want us to come with you?

No, sweetie. You and the Zhus stay here and keep warm.

I got this.

-You can do it! -All right!

-Excellent! -Woo-hoo! Nice!

(birds chirping)

Pipsqueak: Yes!

Mr. Squiggles: Whoa!

Chunk: Cool!

Wow!

Morning, sweetie!

Auto body repair badge. Oh, and I found a wheat field!

Who wants French toast with maple syrup?

Those look even better than marshmallows,

if that's even possible.

(eating sounds)

I wanna thank all of you for helping me overcome my fear.

Mmm! Oh, I couldn't have done it without my Power Badge Girl!

We Zhu-ed it!

I did not just hear that.

-Nooo... -Wrong tense.

-Nasty. -Pass the syrup.
