ZEKE: "Lost and Found Patrol."

[crashing] Whoa!

Gramma Super, what is going on?

I know, my Little Squishes, I made a big mess.

'Cause I'm looking for my glasses.

Here they are, Gramma.

Oh, no, those are the safety goggles.

The glasses I lost are my everyday glasses.

You know, the round and pink ones?

I've searched the whole house

from top to bottom, bottom to top.

They're not here.

We'll help you find your glasses, Gramma.

Did you go anywhere else today?

Yes. I had breakfast at the Eat 'N Greet --

sat at my favorite table by the door.

Took a ride in the tire swing,

just for fun.

Went to the Sow 'N Grow to pick cabbage

for our dinner.

After that, I changed a light bulb

in the big yellow lava lamp down in the tunnels.

That's everywhere I went.

I was really looking forward

to watching What Invention Is That?

You know, the show where

contestants have to guess what an invention is

just by looking at it?

But I can't watch TV without my glasses.

Well, you went to four places.

So, we'll look for your glasses in those places:

the Eat 'N Greet, the tire swing,

the Sow 'N Grow,

and by the yellow lava lamp in the tunnels.

We'll find your glasses, Gramma.

because we're the Lost and Found Patrol.

♪ If it's lost, it'll be found ♪

♪ When the Lost and Found Patrol's around ♪

To the Eat 'N Greet to find those glasses.

I'll have the one, two, three,

triple decker pickle sandwich.

Got it.

Three pickle sandwiches.

No.

One sandwich, three layers of pickles.

Got it.

Three pickles, coming up.

[stammering]

Mr. E, Super sat at this table

when she had breakfast here this morning.

It's her favorite table at the Eat 'N Greet.

And she lost her glasses.

Lost her glasses? That's terrible.

What do they look like?

Round and pink.

Mind if we take a look around?

Not at all.

[squelching]

Oops. Sorry, Mr. E.

[yelps] Sorry, Mr. E.

Had to look under the table

for Gramma's glasses,

in case she dropped them.

[exclaims]

Oh, sorry, Mr. E.

Is this yours?

Oh, no, I don't wear sweatshirts.

Then that means someone else lost this.

After we find Gramma's glasses,

we should find who lost this sweatshirt

and then return it to them.

So, Gramma's glasses aren't here. Agree?

That's right.

Okay. After breakfast,

Gramma took a ride in the tire swing.

Maybe she lost her glasses there?

♪ If it's lost, it'll be found ♪

♪ When the Lost and Found Patrol's around ♪

To the tire swing to find those glasses.

, , ...

Hey, Sammy.

Super might've lost her glasses in the tire swing.

Can you stop swinging so we can look for them?

I can't.

I'm trying to beat the Treeborhood record

for most swings on the tire swing in one day.

Whoa, the record for most swings in a day is .

And I'm already up to .

But we need you to stop, Sammy.

Super needs her glasses.

But if I stop, I gotta start counting all over again.

...

He could be swinging on that tire all day.

And we'd have to wait here the whole time,

and Gramma won't get her glasses,

and she won't get to watch What Invention Is That?

ever again.

Sammy, if you stop swinging

and let us look in the tire for Super's glasses,

I'll let you wear my goggles.

Ooh, goggles.

Okay.

See ya.

No glasses.

But I found a book.

Guess somebody lost this, too.

But who?

After we find Gramma's glasses,

we'll work out who lost the purple sweatshirt

and the yellow book, so we can return them.

MALIK: So, after the swing,

Gramma went to the Sow 'N Grow.

maybe she lost her glasses there?

To the Sow 'N Grow

to find those glasses.

[yelps] The cabbage is moving!

Hold me!

ZADIE: Sorry, it's just us.

Now the cabbage is talking!

We're not talking cabbage.

We're the Lost and Found Patrol.

We're looking for Super's glasses.

We'll help. What do they look like?

Round and pink.

Found 'em!

Yes! Yes!

Aw...

They're not round or pink.

They're yellow and square

with pink flowers.

And the lenses are dark.

Wrong shape, wrong color, wrong everything.

These aren't Gramma's glasses,

they're just somebody else's sunglasses.

Hey, Kat, Kit, did you lose these sunglasses?

Nope.These are ours.

[snapping] Stay cool.

After we find Gramma's glasses,

we can find out who lost these sunglasses.

The last place to look is in the tunnels,

where Gramma went to change the lightbulb

in the yellow lava lamp.

♪ If it's lost, it'll be found ♪

♪ When the Lost and Found Patrol's around ♪

To the tunnels to find those glasses.

I didn't find Gramma's glasses,

but I did find this.

It's a box made of wood.

It's not very heavy...

[rattling]

And something's in it.

[grunts]

I can't get it open.

I wonder who lost a box you can't even open.

I don't know, but it's up to us,

the Lost and Found Patrol, to find out.

So we can return it.

After we tell Gramma we couldn't find her glasses.

[gasps]

[snoring]

[shushes]

She's napping.

Good. We can tell her later,

after we work out

who lost this stuff

and how to return it to them.

Okay. who could have lost this sweatshirt?

Someone who wears clothes.

That narrows it down to...

everybody.

Maybe the color is a clue.

Who do we know who likes purple?

Thinking positions.

ZADIE: Duffy!

Duffy loves purple.

She always wears purple

when she plays ping pong.

To the Eat 'N Greet.

Duffy, did you lose this?

It's purple, and you love purple.

It's a jazzy purple, that's for sure,

but it's not mine.

Way too small.

Oh, we didn't think about the size,

just the color. [door opens, bell dings]

[gasping]

You found Sir Snuggles' sweatshirt.

It's the perfect size sweatshirt for Sir Snuggles.

Did you not know that his favorite color is purple?

Thank you for finding it.

We found out who lost the little purple sweatshirt,

so now let's find out who lost this yellow book.

Huh, I can't read these words.

Hmm, maybe it's written in some other language?

I know who can tell us what language it's in.

Someone who knows lots of different languages.

Quique.

We found this book and want to return it to whoever lost it...

But we don't know who lost it.

It's in some other language.

We thought you could tell us what language it's in.

It's in Spanish.

El Gran Rebote.

The Big Bounce.

Who do we know who would like to read

a book about bouncing?

Thinking positions.

ZEKE: Ellie!

Ellie likes to bounce.

Does Ellie know Spanish?

Sí.She does.

Thank you!

Whoo-wee!

That was my biggest bounce ever.

Hi. What's up, kiddos?

We found this book in the tire swing.

Did you lose it, Ellie?

El Gran Rebote.

The Big Bounce.

I didn't know you spoke Spanish, Ellie.

Sí.

I didn't even know I lost this book.

Thanks for finding it.

Whoo-wee!

Okay, next lost item.

Who do we know who wears sunglasses

with pink flowers on them?

Thinking positions.

ZEKE: Leiko loves pink flowers.

Let's go find her.

We found these sunglasses in the Sow 'N Grow.

Thought they were yours because of the pink flowers.

Ah, these flowers are cherry blossoms.

Yep, they're my sunglasses.

I must have lost them when I was picking cabbage

for my okonomiyaki-- cabbage pancakes.

Ah, we have only one more lost item to return.

This is the last thing we found: the box.

[rattling] With something inside it.

MALIK: It's got a picture of the Treeborhood on it.

Must belong to someone in the Treeborhood.

That narrows it down to...

everybody.

Wait.

I've seen something

that looks like that picture before.

ZEKE: Gabriela!

Gabriela has Treeborhood stamps

that look just like the picture on this box.

To the post office!

Thank you for bringing this box to me,

but it's not mine.

Hm... look at these lines on the wood.

Could be a puzzle box.

What's a puzzle box?

It's a special kind of box

that you have to work out how to open.

To open it, you have to solve the puzzle.

Let me show you.

Try sliding this side up,

and that side down.

Then try sliding the third side towards you.

Try to work out what to move next.

Maybe if I slide

this last side like this...

[popping] It opened!

And look what's inside it.

Something pink and round...

[gasps]

ALL: Gramma's eyeglasses!

We found your glasses!

Oh, now I remember.

When I went to change the light bulb in the lava lamp,

I took my glasses off, put them in my special box,

and put on my safety goggles.

Then, I put the box down

and left it there, silly me.

Thank you, thank you, thank you,

you're the best Lost and Found Patrol ever. [giggling]

ZEKE: "Survey Says."

Yay! This is Captain Z,

ready to land.

[giggles]

Mr. E! I'd like to buy some purple ping pong ba*ls.

To match my groovy purple ping pong paddle.

Ya dig?

Let me check for you.

There must be purple in here somewhere.

White... white...

White!

I'm sorry, we don't carry

purple ping pong ba*ls, Duffy.

Oh.

I'll take the white ones.

Oh, why, Mr. E?

Why did you fail your customers?

Mr. E, if you don't want to fail your customers,

you need to ask them what they want. You're right.

I should have them take a survey.

A survey?

What's a survey?

A survey is when you ask everyone a question.

Then, you count the answers

to find out which answer everyone gave the most.

MR. E: Yes!

Let's survey my customers

to find out if everyone wants purple ping pong ba*ls.

Hm... but how should we do it?

I know!

Come on.

We can use stickers for the survey.

First, you ask a question:

"Hello, would you like to take a survey?"

If the customer says yes to the first question,

then you ask a second question:

"Should the Emporium sell purple ping pong ba*ls?

Like these, only purple."

If they say "yes,"

put a happy face sticker on the board.

And if they say "no,"

put a grumpy face sticker on the board. MALIK: Neat.

So, who wants to ask the questions?

Me, me, me, me, me!

I love stickers.

Okay, it's simple.

When anyone enters the store,

first you ask,

"Would you like to take a survey?"

If they say yes, then you ask,

"Should the Emporium sell purple ping pong ba*ls?"

If they say "Yes, the Emporium should sell

purple ping pong ba*ls," then have them put

a happy face sticker on the board.

And if they say "No, the Emporium

should not sell purple ping pong ba*ls,"

have them put a grumpy face sticker on the board.

Oh, I'm sorry to make you go to all this trouble.

ZEKE: It's no trouble, Mr. E.

I want to help. Come on, Mr. E,

let's go on a chair ride to cheer you up.

Huzzah! [laughing]

[shop bell ringing] Hello, Gabriela.

Would you like to take a survey?

Yes, of course.

Here, you can put

this happy face sticker on the board.

Is that it?

Uh... I think there was a second thing,

but I can't remember.

So yes, that is it.

Thanks.

[bell chimes] Hello, Kit.

Would you like to take a survey?

I love surveys.

Thanks.

Now stick this on that board.

Thanks.

I think I finished the survey.

[brakes squealing]

Ooh, I can't wait to see the results.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight,

nine happy faces.

So, nine customers

like the idea of selling purple ping pong ba*ls.

And one, two grumpy faces.

So that's only two customers

who don't like the idea

of selling purple ping pong ba*ls.

I had no idea

folks liked purple ping pong ba*ls that much.

I'd better go order some.

[shop bell ringing] Welcome.

May I interest you in some purple ping pong ba*ls?

No, I just need sunscreen.

Oh.

You'll find it there.

Behind the purple ping pong ba*ls.

Nobody is buying my purple ping pong ba*ls.

I don't understand.

I thought you asked everyone

if I should sell purple ping pong ba*ls,

and most customers said yes, they would like that.

Oopsie.

I forgot to ask that question.

I only asked everyone

if they wanted to take the survey.

But I forgot to ask

if you should sell purple ping pong ba*ls.

ZADIE: So you only asked,

"Would you like to take a survey?"

So we found out nine customers wanted to take a survey,

and two did not.

But we didn't find out if customers

want me to sell purple ping pong ba*ls or not.

Found the sunscreen.

What to do, what to do?

Should I get rid of the purple ping pong ba*ls?

I don't know what to do!

I think we need a new survey

where we ask a different question,

since Mr. E already has

a lot of purple ping pong ba*ls to sell.

Okay, this time,

make sure you ask both questions:

First, "Would you like to take a survey?"

And then, if they say "yes," ask:

"Do you like the idea of getting rid of

the purple ping pong ba*ls?"

The grumpy face means

you don't like the idea

of getting rid of the purple ping pong ba*ls,

and the happy face means

you do like getting rid of

the purple ping pong ba*ls.

[sighing]

Mr. E,

looks like you could use

more cheering up.

How about we take another ride

in your chair, Mr. E?

Yes!

Are you going to be okay, Zeke?

I got this.

[shop bell rings]

Here comes Louisa!

Go!

Hi, Louisa.

Would you like to take a survey?

Why would I want to do that?

You seem kinda... grumpy.

Did you not know?

I've had a very bad,

totally awful, stinky morning.

I spilled syrup on my feet,

and now my toes are stuck together.

Are you listening to me?

MR. E: Yay! [laughter]

[laughter] ZADIE: Yay!

MALIK [laughing]: Whoo-hoo! Yeah!

That chair really looks fun.

[hissing]

[growls]

♪ ♪

There are no customers for the survey,

so can I ride too?

What if someone comes in?

[sighing]: Aw.

Hi, Quique.

Would you like to take a survey?

Sure.

Should the Emporium get rid of

the purple ping pong ba*ls?

If you say yes,

put a happy face sticker on the board.

And if you say no,

put a grumpy face sticker on the board.

Yes, I think the Emporium should get rid of them.

It can be hard to find anything in here anymore.

[splash]

[groans]

[shop bell ringing]

[laughter]

[springing, cheering]

Snout, watch the survey board?

Let me know if someone comes in.

[splatting]

[shop bell ringing]

Well, does everyone like the idea

of getting rid of the purple ping pong ba*ls?

ZADIE: One, two,

three, four,

five, six.

Six customers do not like the idea

of getting rid of the purple ping pong ba*ls.

And one, two.

Two customers do like the idea of

getting rid of the purple ping pong ba*ls.

So, I won't get rid of them.

Customers think that purple ping pong ba*ls

are a good thing.

Welcome to the Purple Ping Pong 'Porium.

And I owe it all to you.

Yay!

Your survey showed me that my customers

don't just like purple ping pong ba*ls,

they love them.

Even if a customer wants , of them,

I've got them covered.

[shop bell rings]

Duffy!

Welcome to the Purple Ping Pong 'Porium.

How many purple ping pong ba*ls would you like?

None, thank you. Huh?

You were right, white ones work just fine.

[sighing]: Ugh...

Hiya, Mr. E.

Beautiful day outside, huh?

I'm glad you're not grumpy today, Louisa.

No, today I'm very happy.

Yesterday, everything was going wrong.

That made me so grumpy

I must've stuck a zillion grumpy face stickers

on that board.

You put stickers on the board

because you were grumpy?

Yep.

But Zeke wasn't asking

if you were happy or grumpy.

He was doing a survey to find out

if you liked the idea of Mr. E getting rid of

the purple ping pong ba*ls.

MALIK: The happy face stickers meant

you did want him to get rid of them.

And the grumpy face stickers meant

you did not want him to get rid of them.

What?

Did you not know that a grumpy face

means someone is grumpy?

Oh me, oh my.

In our first survey, we found out

how many customers would like to take a survey.

And in our second survey, we found out

how grumpy Louisa was yesterday.

Why can't I get the correct answer

to my ping pong ball questions?

I'm sorry, Mr. E.

That's okay, Zeke.

We just need to do another survey.

But this time,

we will make sure

everyone knows the questions.

Attention, shoppers.

Would you like to take a survey?

If you do,

come over to the survey board.

Shoppers!

should Mr. E

get rid of the purple ping pong ba*ls,

so the Emporium can go back to the way it was?

Or not get rid of the purple ping pong ba*ls?

Let's see what we have.

Grumpy faces:

one, two, three,

four, five customers

do not want me to get rid of

the purple ping pong ba*ls.

And happy faces--

one, two, three, four, five customers

do want me to get rid of the ba*ls.

It's a tie.

KIDS: A tie?

Should I keep the purple ping pong ba*ls

or get rid of them?

I still do not know.

I'll have to sleep on it.

Hope you keep them, Mr. E.

We really like them.

Hurry! This may be our last chance

to play with the ping pong ba*ls.

They won't still be there, Zeke.

Of course they will.

That many ping pong ba*ls can't disappear overnight.

[shop bell ringing]

Where are all the ping pong ba*ls?

In the final survey,

half of my customers wanted me to get rid of them,

and half wanted me to keep them,

so I found a way to do both,

by creating something new.

The Everything Emporium ball pit.

[cheering]

KIDS: Yay!

Yipee!
