02x08 - Compassion Crashin'

[bunniefuu]

hi grandmom

anything special in the mail this

morning oh

nothing at all crumpet unless you think

tire advertisements are special

hmm i hope that i might get a postcard

from my friend claire today

oh don't worry your mop top about that

dearie

why don't you sit down and tell me all

about it you gotta see this

maybe now's not the best time jason

can't you see that michelle's not

feeling very happy right now

yeah sure she'll get over it come on you

guys see this

i read about this in one of granddad's

science books

it's way cool watch i made this volcano

out of clay

and put a little baking soda inside now

watch what happens when i add vinegar

[Applause]

[Music]

what's wrong with her in case you

haven't noticed

your sister's feeling a bit down in the

mouth and your excitement isn't helping

the much this was the coolest thing ever

you know there's a face about that why

am i not surprised like what who takes

away a garment on a cold day

or like vinegar poured on soda is one

who sings songs to a heavy heart

what does that mean if you act happy in

front of someone who is sad

it just irritates them like when you

pour the vinegar on the baking soda

sometimes they can even erupt in anger

well

how else are you supposed to cheer

someone up well you could try listening

to their troubles

it's one way to show care and compassion

i'm compassionate

i helped her up when she fell in the mud

i don't make fun of her when she tries

to throw a baseball

and those are all fine examples but how

you show compassion

depends upon the situation so

what do you want me to do in this case

you need to ask her what's wrong

listen to what's bothering her and show

her you care

compassion jason it will give her a lift

now think about that whilst i whip up

some lunch compassion

i'd rather do something fun

let's sing a little song with eight

little words but a rocket ship

and flightless birds

[Music]

vigilant

[Music]

kevin

[Music]

three two

[Music]

one

[Music]

is that you jason michelle what's going

on

happy birthday merry christmas

happy birthday michelle happy birthday

jason

oh we've been planning this for weeks i

bet you never suspected a thing

it's not our birthday our birthday was

two months ago

surprised huh oh come open your presents

and then we'll have some cake i'm not

really in the mood

what's wrong with michelle she's in a

bad mood

but don't act happy or it'll make her

even more unhappy

or something like that

you like it huh

[Music]

tastes like fish oh thanks kevin

why don't you hold on to them and they

can share

[Music]

[Applause]

wait wait it gets better i mean a

michelle

this is from mitchell and me

a miss pretty pretty vanity set too bad

i left her back at the cottage

along with someone to play with things

just the same

you're quite welcome sorry miss pretty

pretty's not here

and this is for you

rocket wheelies just slide them onto the

heels of your shoes

and go

[Music]

[Applause]

these are great thanks

[Music]

say i'd like to go on those mate don't

be silly mitchell

you're an officer since i'm captain i'll

go next

don't worry we'll take turns that's what

friends are for

right michelle

what's the matter why nothing i'm fine

really

[Music]

excuse me excuse me did anyone notice

that michelle left her own party

or the fact that she's not happy

tidy bites what kind of gift is that

i told you she's been moping around all

morning

i'm supposed to show her some compassion

but i'd rather play with my cool new

rocket wheelies

well we can't ever dragging around like

an old gloomy gus

compassion huh that's like being cheery

right

nah it's well listening in that kind of

stuff

i think i got it we'll throw her an even

bigger party at the comet lounge

splendid notion but what if that doesn't

work i mean

she didn't seem too happy about the

first one we threw i believe

i have an idea

[Music]

wow what is it the x51 behavior modifier

what does it do it modifies behavior it

will make michelle happy

even happier than a birthday party

i love birthday parties

whoa is this thing safe yes yes quite

nothing could be safer allow me to

demonstrate

here you simply type in whatever emotion

you wish joy

anger love love oh

love kevin we are going to help michelle

with her problem

say can i get a perm with that thing

i've been thinking about changing my

look

happiness there

[Music]

we increase the modifier to the

appropriate level i believe

seven should do the trick what happens

if you turn the dial the other way

to the red zone oh believe me you don't

want to do that

it would have the opposite effect all

right then we're ready for modification

now all we need is

what are you guys doing oh nothing

want to try something no i just came

back for my present

but if you just have a seat here you

will be happy again i don't want to sit

in that thing

forget it i'm going to play by myself

as usual i don't get it captain

seems like michelle is always off

playing by herself maybe we should

cancel her party and celebrate my

birthday instead

i have a short list of presents you

could give me

[Music]

or not we asked her what's wrong and

listened to her

that was supposed to make her happy at

least that's what grandmom said

i just had another idea if we can't get

michelle to sit in the x51

what about us but we're already happy

as in happy birthday to me

[Music]

no i mean what if we set the x51 to give

us uh what was it jason compassion

right here we go a captain a you first

i'm not sitting in that dusty old thing

that's better

[Music]

take me to your leader

had you going didn't i well i got stuff

to do

later oh captain

i am so hungry it's been so

long since i've had a bite

i'm absolutely famished

[Applause]

[Music]

strange he doesn't seem overly

compassionate

still seems rather self-centered what'd

you expect

mother teresa me next professor

[Music]

well how do you feel

oh give me a hand mitchell

no i mean help me help yourself mate

but i've fallen and i can't get up that

was funny doc

in the 80s how rude

me next what oh yes oh yeah

go go ahead

if you need me for anything i'll be

below deck

i know the x51 is a little dusty but i'm

finding the effect that it's having to

be a bit high

curious well kevin are you ready for a

healthy dose of compassion

[Applause]

[Music]

field

[Music]

well i've done all i can do the rest of

you are on your own

[Music]

hey michelle what you doing nothing

why aren't you zipping around on your

new rocket wheelies

yeah bored oh yeah well you can hang

around here and play with me if you want

yeah i was looking for something fun to

do

[Music]

oh yeah are you still feeling down well

it's just that i well i hope you feel

better soon bye

nobody really listens to me i miss my

friends and i just want somebody to play

with to play my games

captain's blog with a healthy dose of

compassion from the x51

we have all become the picture of caring

for each other

[Music]

whoa cool that almost seemed real

[Music]

asteroids yeah it's great no no

no no asteroids

[Music]

why weren't you watching out for us

instead of playing video games

you could've warned me if you weren't

more concerned with your hair

what's the meaning of this what's going

[Music]

on

will you

emergency crash positions

utron

since this is the end i'd like to say

i've enjoyed working with you all

hold on we're going down

[Music]

[Music]

everybody all right hey okay over here

i'm good

well since you asked i've been feeling

kind of good glad to hear it

begging the captain's pardon but in case

you haven't noticed we have just

crash-landed on an asteroid

actually on a scale of one to ten that

was more of a bounce than a crash

i'd call it a flab a slight wipeout

is anyone listening to me believe me

i know how you feel i'm hungry

ugh i'm going to check the damages

outside the ship

hey he's right this is serious

ole miss gloomy gus is back

i'm going to help fidget

[Music]

i'm not entirely sure but i wouldn't say

she's feeling any better

well we tried that compassion stuff with

no luck

maybe we should try that party idea

again

[Music]

i don't know what's wrong with everybody

i quite agree

i've never seen them act so rude give me

that

is there anything i can do to help well

not unless you have a degree in

electrical engineering

or can scrounge up a hundred pounds of

reinforced perillium alloy cheating in

storage

and for goodness sake it wouldn't hurt

you to smile

uh i'll see what i can do

where's michelle i sent you to get some

cheating to patch up the hole

she's just a kid that stuff weighs a ton

then i suppose you better make

yourselves useful and go and see if she

needs some help shouldn't you

[Music]

i don't know what's come over you now if

there are no further interruptions

who are you talking to oh uh i sent

jason and mitchell to help michelle get

some sheeting

good thinking i'll go see what's keeping

them

[Music]

that was quick here i am working myself

sick while they're all traipsing around

how utterly inconsiderate

what are those things they might be

listening

did anyone bring a cotton swab

nice here to drop in what about michelle

great mother of muffins that's right

where's michelle vigil you're the

language expert

go talk to these whatever they are i

believe they're called

the lobes they work in the baking soda

mines in this asteroid belt

we'll ask them if they know where

michelle is ugh must i do

everything

a butter butter butter butter butter

butter

[Music]

we are strange creatures they have seen

no child

and that you have funny hair jealous

hey hold it right there butter butter

buddy

get your dirty mix off of me he says

we're going to see

that the great overlord

[Music]

enters sl*ves did she just call us

sl*ves

they made me their queen they don't want

me to go

you why maybe it's because they enjoy my

company

i like it here they're all girls they

don't think playing with miss

pretty pretty is boring like some people

do

hey we like your company too i mean

most of the time anyway we tried to make

happy yes we threw you a party

nobody threw me a party and and

and we got you a present we went through

behavior modification on the x51

yeah you know compassion

[Music]

he she says that's not what compassion

is

compassion is when you care enough to

help someone with their problem and take

time to find out what's bothering them

it was nice of you to think of a party

but you can't make me feel better with

parties

or obnoxious machines well

what can they do that's so special they

listen uh what was that

well you could try listening to their

troubles it's one way to show care and

compassion

okay i'm listening now tell me what's

wrong michelle

you really want to know

i've just been missing my friends

recently and since i'm the only girl

around and there's nobody for me to play

with

i guess i was just feeling lonely oh

that's what you've been trying to tell

us

i'm really sorry i didn't listen

what can i do to help well this is a

start jason

i feel better just knowing you're

listening to me

well this is something the x51 could

never do

i broke it you know what

that explains it the machine was

supposed to make us compassionate

but it did the opposite that's why

mitchell didn't help vigil even when it

looked like he found hurt

himself and why ziggler wouldn't give

any cake to fidrill

even when he cried out that he was

hungry and

it's why i didn't listen to my sister

when she needed me don't you see nobody

cared about anyone

else speak for yourself bucko

stop these are my friends stop

i've had fun with you globe girls but i

have to leave with my friends

of course they're real friends look how

much compassion they showed me

[Music]

sorry sis that's all right i'm glad to

see you all back to normal

so michelle you are now honorary captain

of the federation starship

rockhopper just for a couple of minutes

okay

oh like a queen on her throne

oh no this is much much better because

i'm with my friends who know me

and care about me take us home mitchell

aye aye captain

and i like this one i got yesterday from

claire

that's a pretty waterfall don't you

think

well now it's good to see my nippers so

chipper

what's come over you i'm feeling better

now grandmom

thanks to jason jason now how do you

suppose he did that

all i did was listen uh what a beautiful

way to show compassion to your sister

you see love when you just act happy in

front of someone who's sad

it doesn't usually help it's like taking

away their coat on a cold day

or pouring vinegar on baking soda

that's exactly right love compassion is

when you care enough to help someone

with their problem

and take time out to find out what it is

what's that

for jason's experiment reminded me of an

old recipe i used to make for your

[Music]

granddad

pleasant memories

[Music]

and keep mom and dad safe on their trip

and thank you for a brother who knows

how to listen with compassion michelle

you don't have to go on about it

[Music]

amen

[Music]

you
