Hi there, everybody.
Welcome to the movie.
- We're so glad you came. Now...
- Oh, Ernie. Listen.
I'm going to take a shower.
Have you seen my antibacterial soap?
- No, Bert, I haven't.
- Oh. Now, where did I...
This movie you're about
to see is all about Elmo.
Who are you talking to?
The audience.
They're right there.
- Yeah?
- See?
Wow. Look at all those people.
Hey, nice cardigan.
Now, in this movie, Elmo is
going to ask for your help.
He wants you to talk and play along.
How do we start?
It's easy.
Just count backwards from ten.
- Okay.
- You see,
that's how you start a movie.
Can you all help us
count backwards from ten?
- Yeah!
- Ready? Yell real loud!
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six...
five, four, three, two, one!
Heya, Bert. Don't you think you
oughta put some clothes on now?
What?
Enjoy the movie, everybody.
Wake up!
Elmo's up!
Wow! Hello, everybody!
It's so nice to see you!
Hey, hey. Since you're here,
Elmo wants to show you something.
It's Elmo's favorite thing
in the whole world!
Yeah. Elmo's Blanket!
Come on over and meet everybody, Blank.
Blanket?
Blanket! Blanket, where are you?
Elmo wants to show you somebody.
Oh. Are you under here, Blanket?
Blanket, where are you?
Oh, hey, you nice people,
have you seen Elmo's Blanket?
- Yes!
- Where?
Oh. Over there?
- No!
- No?
Where is Blanket?
- Is it over here?
- Yes!
Really?
Oh, there you are!
Oh, thanks, everybody, for helping.
Blanket. Hey, you come down from there.
No! No!
Blanket!
Elmo's so glad he found you.
Elmo doesn't know what he'd do
without his best friend.
Stop. That tickles!
Blanket
Who's Elmo's best friend
Always by his side
That's you, Blanket Yeah
Elmo's best friend
Elmo finds you when you Hide!
Whoa! Elmo's Blanket,
a carpet, the magic kind
Elmo never would ever leave you behind
Elmo's best friend
Let's go for a ride!
Who's Elmo's best friend
Be still, Blanket.
Who helps Elmo try
You, Blanket!
Elmo's best friend
Won't let Elmo cry
Together forever in rain or sun
We do things like two
but we're really one
Elmo's best friend
Uh-oh. Time to wash you.
- Uh, sir?
- Huh? What?
There's something wrong with this.
Listen.
It's working!
- Hey, you hear that? Let's whirl.
- Yeah!
All right!
Oh, yeah!
Blanket, you're wet.
- Time to dry.
- Here we go, socks.
Together forever the world seems fine.
- Yeah!
- We never would ever
Leave you behind
Together forever the world seems fine.
- Yeah!
- We never would ever
Leave you behind
Oh. Thank you, Blanket.
Hey, let's go home.
Oh, hi, Zoey.
Zoey?
What's wrong?
I really, really wanted
to go to the zoo today...
but my daddy had to work,
so he couldn't take me.
Ohh. Elmo has an idea!
Well, since Zoey can't go to the zoo...
Elmo will bring the zoo to Zoey.
Watch, watch, watch.
- What are you, a lion?
- Yeah. Watch this.
Oh, that's a monkey!
I know. It's a pig!
No. Elmo has something in his nose.
That's funny.
Thanks, Elmo.
You always make me feel better.
You're welcome, Zoey.
Wow!
Oh, what a great blanket!
Yeah, yeah.
It's very special to Elmo.
A Zoey, guess what
Elmo's going to take it home.
It's soft.
Oh Zoey, Zoey!
Elmo has a nice washcloth
at home you could hold.
Don't worry, Elmo.
I'll be careful.
But Zoey...
- Elmo wants his Blanket back now.
- In a minute, Elmo.
No, not in a minute, Zoey.
Now, now!
Elmo wants his Blanket back now!
- Wait!
- Elmo wants it back now!
It's mine!
Zoey! Look what you did!
I didn't mean it.
It was an accident.
Zoey's not Elmo's friend anymore.
What?
I'm not your friend?
I can't stop!
Stop, Telly!
That's Elmo's Blanket!
Elmo.
Oh this is so delicate.
- Coming through!
- Blanket!
My birthday present!
Cookie.
- Look out!
- Blanket!
- Oh, waiter...
- One second, sir.
- Elmo wants his Blanket back!
- I can't stop!
- Hi, Telly.
- Hello.
Blanket!
- Yes, sir.
- Oh, no. Not you again.
- Well listen. I'd like...
- Blanket! Blanket!
This looks like a job for Super Grover!
But what about breakfast?
No, thank you, sir.
I cannot fly on a full stomach.
- There.
- Huh? But... What?
Look out!
Could somebody please get up?
My little super body cannot
take this much weight.
- Sorry, Super Grover.
- They crashed.
- They couldn't stop.
- Everybody's okay.
- Where's Elmo's Blanket?
- Oh I saw it.
It fell out of the sky,
Oscar sneezed in it,
and he dropped it in his can.
It fell out of the sky,
Oscar sneezed in it,
and then Oscar threw it in his can.
Elmo sees.
Elmo!
- Elmo.
- Oh, something I...
- Elmo, are you okay?
- How many fingers
am I holding up?
That's two... two fingers.
Excuse Elmo. Make way.
Oscar, please bring back Elmo's Blanket.
Oscar, Elmo really needs
his Blanket back!
Oh, Elmo, it's okay.
Oscar, bring Elmo's Blanket!
Elmo needs his Blanket now!
Oscar!
Okay, Elmo, take it easy.
Calm down. It's okay. I don't
think Oscar's home right now.
Not home? But Gina,
Elmo needs his Blanket back.
I guess you'll just have to
wait for Oscar to get back.
Elmo...
Elmo doesn't want to talk to you, Zoey.
All Elmo wants is his Blanket back.
I didn't mean to...
Don't worry, Zoey. Elmo's
just a little upset right now.
But, Bob, I didn't mean
to rip his blanket.
And then Telly came, and you saw it...
Everybody, break it up.
Nothing to see here. Move along.
Just a little monster trying to
get his Blanket back.
- Thank you.
- All right.
Elmo can wait.
Oscar will probably be back
at any second.
Any second now.
And we're waiting.
Elmo's waiting.
Elmo can't wait anymore!
Oh, wow. Elmo didn't know
Oscar's place was this big.
Blanket, there you are!
Oh, Elmo's so glad to see you!
Elmo missed you!
Come on. Let's go home.
- Oh, Blanket!
- Hey, Elmo...
Please.
- Have a nice trip!
- Blanket!
Wow!
Wait, wait. Stop the film.
Stop the film. Ernie, Ernie.
- Oh, what's the matter, Bert?
- Well, what's happening to Elmo?
Don't worry, Bert. That's just
the way to get to Grouchland.
Roll film! Hey, Bert?
- What?
- Duck.
Blanket! Where are you?
Blanket!
Very colorful!
Wow. That was a fun ride.
Gee. Look at this place.
Where's Elmo's Blanket?
And where is Elmo?
Elmo doesn't think he's on
Sesame Street anymore.
- Hey, Red. You're in Grouchland.
- The greatest place on Earth!
A place where you can
kick off your shoes and...
smell your stinky socks!
Oh, no. I think I feel a song coming on.
Yuck!
Wow. This is great.
Yeah. Watch your toes.
Musical number coming through.
Hear the steady beat of sweaty feet.
On the greasy streets of Grouchland.
Smell the stinkweed gag
the waving wheat.
What a perfect day
Make it stop!
Come on! You missed a tire!
Come on.
Bring in the noise Bring in the junk.
Step on a crack Step in the gunk.
Home of the world's worst traffic jam
Welcome to Grouchland Now scram.
With the gum and goo beneath your shoe
You can bet you stepped in Grouchland
It's against the law to use shampoo
so we wash with cheese
Cheese, that's smelly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Here! Right here!
You like me!
You really like me!
Now, get out of here!
Get my good side.
That's right.
I don't have a good side.
If you're growing old
and love the coast.
Spend your golden years in Grouchland
Where the streets are paved in
solid mold and the stinkbugs sing
Sing!
Yeah!
Bring in the junk
Step on a crack, step in the gunk
Our motto:
I grouch, therefore I am.
Welcome to Grouchland.
Welcome to Grouchland.
Welcome to Grouchland
Now scram!
Wow. Grouchland sounds like fun.
- What?
- Fun?
You obviously don't
appreciate Grouch culture.
Let's send him some
greeting cards, airmail.
- Have a rotten birthday!
- Happy grouchness!
- Yeah! Get sick soon!
- Happy sour 16th!
Elmo doesn't know how to read yet.
Aww, isn't that too... Hmm?
It's raining! Come on, girls!
Rocket!
Oh, no, it's Huxley again!
He'll take anything!
Go home, why don't you?
- What's going on?
- I'll take that.
Hey, hey!
You're taking his greeting card.
I'll take that.
Hey!
Soggy Sandy wets her pants.
That's why they call her Soggy.
Watch her do her Soggy dance.
- Then after you'll get wet.
- Is that your new Soggy doll?
- Yeah.
- You're wrong.
Guess who's changing its diapers now?
Let go of her! No!
They can't do that.
That's not nice.
Hey, put me down, you rotten Huxley!
Wow!
Stop!
- I bet that hurt. Oh, yeah.
- Are you okay?
Did someone say "stop"?
All right. Who said that?
Which one of you dares
to question my evil ways?
He did. He did.
- Elmo said it.
- Hey, boss, he's the one.
I heard him.
It's the cute little red guy.
- He's questioning your evil ways.
- I know that, Bug.
It's not nice to take things
that don't belong to you.
He also says it is not nice
to take things that do not belong to me!
- Isn't that just precious?
- Yeah.
Let me fill you in on something.
It all belongs to me.
If I touch it, I own it. Bug!
You see this tennis racket?
Ping! I own it.
This hammer? Ping! I own it.
This velvet painting of Elvis...
I didn't really want it...
but... ping... I own it.
And this.
Oh, Elmo's Blanket!
You're wrong.
I didn't borrow this blanket.
I didn't rent this blanket.
Heck, I didn't even take out
a 36-month lease on this blanket.
No. Ping! I own it!
I think it's made
of all-natural fibers...
maybe 100% cotton.
Very lovely.
Bug, you really know how to ruin
a villainous moment, don't you?
Now get in the cartoonishly
evil vehicle and drive!
- Sir! Yes, sir!
- No! Wait! Blanket! Blanket!
You know, I would really
love to stay and chat...
but I have to get home to take
a nap with my brand-new woobie.
Say, "Bye-bye," woobie.
"Bye-bye."
- It's a Blanket!
- Woobie!
- Blanket!
- Woobie!
Mine!
Blanket!
Wait! Stop!
Stop the movie! Stop the movie!
- What's the matter, Bert?
- Didn't you see what Huxley did?
- Yeah.
- He took Elmo's Blanket.
Oh, I can't look.
But don't worry, Bert.
It'll be okay.
Right, everybody?
Because we know Elmo won't give up
until he gets his Blanket back.
Roll film! Let's watch, Bert.
Oh, okay, Ernie,
but I can't see anything.
Bert, you still
have your hands over your eyes.
Oh. I... I knew that.
Sure, you did, Bert. Come on.
Please!
Someone help Elmo, please.
Excuse Elmo, can you...
Oh, sir, can you please
help Elmo get his Blanket back?
I'd love to, but I don't speak English.
But...
Someone please help Elmo!
Oh, excuse Elmo.
That mean old Huxley
took Elmo's Blanket!
That makes me feel so bad inside.
Oh, wait.
I think that's just gas.
No, please...
Now what is Elmo going to do?
Hey, you're the girl with the doll!
The name's Grizzy.
How come all the grouches just let that
mean old Huxley guy take everything?
The only way to stop Huxley is
all the grouches
would have to work together...
and grouches hate that.
But Elmo has to get his Blanket back!
Okay, okay.
Look. Maybe I can help you.
Follow me.
Okay.
Elmo.
Sorry, Cookie. Sorry. Elmo.
Oh! Me having a bad cookie day!
Oh, me head.
Hey, everyone! Hey, hey!
- What's the matter?
- What's going on?
Oscar said Elmo is gone.
He probably went down into
Oscar's can for his Blanket,
but instead of getting a blanket
he got sucked away into some
far-off and grouchy place!
- And he's never going to...
- Easy, Telly.
Oscar probably meant that
Elmo went home, that's all.
No. Actually, the worrywart's right.
- What?
- Say what?
Yep. Elmo got sucked down
through a door in my can
to Grouchland, U.S.A.
- Grouchland, U.S.A.?
- Where's that?
This is terrible!
What are we going to do?
What are we going to do?
Here's what we're going to do.
We're going to go down to Grouchland...
...whatever that is, and get Elmo back!
Yeah!
Well, all right, but be careful.
I just had the rugs dirtied.
Checking around the corner.
Oh, joy! Fruity goodness!
- Come on. Come on.
- Elmo.
- Come on. Hustle, hustle.
- Are we there yet?
Almost.
Hold your horses, kid. Gee.
Well, Elmo, there it is...
Greedy Huxley's house
on the top of Mount Pickanose.
That's where your blanket is.
All the way over there.
Far, far away.
Well, Elmo has to
get it back by tonight.
Maybe you're not hearing me.
It's far, far away.
Oh, that's okay, Grizzy.
Elmo's done harder stuff
than this before.
Like what?
Elmo learned to tie his own shoes.
- What are you? Crazy?
- Huh?
If you go there, you might
never make it back home again.
Well, I think I've helped enough.
Good luck to you, kid.
But...
Well, Elmo's going to make it!
You'll see!
Elmo's going to get to that
Huxley's house
and get his Blanket back!
Who's Elmo kidding?
Grizzy is right.
Elmo will never get there.
I'm stuck.
Okay. Here we go, Telly.
One, two, three, push.
Thank you! We're coming, Elmo!
That place is so far, far away.
- You'll never get there, huh?
- Who was talking to Elmo?
- Oh, just a little green plant.
- Huh?
Me!
How come nobody ever think
the shrubbery got something to say? Huh?
Huh? But I do, cause I know
exactly how you feel.
- You do?
- I do!
You feel like you're stuck!
- Yeah.
- Well at least
you got your legs, am I right?
- Yeah.
- Well then all you got to do
is take the first step.
Now, lend me your ear.
Elmo, get your chin up.
Things could be worse
You could have your feet
stuck down in the earth
I don't see no roots
growing from your toes.
Just two very little feet and they're
Revving, revving, revving
- To go.
- Just a little step
- And soon you will see.
- Soon you'll see.
Just how brave your heart can be.
Look on up to the sky
Take that first step.
And kiss your fears good-bye
Now, get up there, my little
red mophead, and take that step.
That's it. Look at that.
I knew he could do it. Yeah!
Wow.
Destiny is callin' so listen up, please
And you can feel the rhythm
down deep in your knees.
One foot, then the other
Your journey has begun.
Elmo, believe it
You're ready, ready, ready to run
Take the first step, soon you will see.
Just how brave your heart can be
Look on up to the sky
Take that first step
And kiss your fears good-bye.
Look at that! There he goes.
Hey, I knew he could do it. Yeah!
Look at him go!
That's it! Just keep on goin'.
Take another step.
Take the first step
and soon you will see
Just how brave your heart can be
Look on up to the sky
Take that first step
Elmo, we believe in you
Take the first step.
You'd better watch out, Mr. Huxley.
Elmo's coming to get his Blanket.
Oh, that's rich, huh?
He's little and red and
he's coming to get his blanket!
Excuse me, boss, didn't you
hear the little guy?
He's taking his first step.
Shouldn't we do something?
Well, ordinarily I wouldn't...
but I am feeling a bit saucy today, huh?
Saucy!
- No pesto.
- Alfredo and a little Parmesan,
maybe, huh?
A little Italian Parmesan.
Perhaps I shall toy with
the little red monster. But how?
- Now, let me think.
- Think, think.
Wow, his eyebrows are huge!
Those aren't eyebrows.
That's my aunt and uncle.
Maybe if I look at it this way.
I know!
I think it's time for Elmo
to take a trip to the tunnel,
if you know what I mean, huh? Yes?
What'd you say, boss?
- Bug, what are you doing?
- Just having a little snack.
Hard to do your evil bidding
on an empty stomach.
Oh, sure. Listen, Bug.
Listen good. Are you listening?
Get back to work!
That was a wild ride!
Wow.
So this is Grouchland, huh?
Yeah, land of a thousand stenches.
Yeah, and I think I can smell
a number of them rigth now.
- Hey, look who it is!
- It's Oscar!
- Oscar?
- You look like a million yucks.
Yeah! Go away! Get out!
Take your friends with you.
Ah, who says you can't go home again?
Oscar, maybe you can get your
friends to tell us where Elmo is.
- Oh, yeah, yeah.
- Yeah, yeah yeah.
In a minute.
First, I have to look
at the old neighborhood here.
Hey, I wonder where
that old septic tank is.
Hey. Wait a minute! No. Oscar,
we've got to find Elmo first!
Yeah. Elmo!
Let's go this way.
- Have you seen Elmo?
- Stop bothering us.
First the little red guy, now you.
Oh, look.
There's a police officer.
Yeah! Let's ask him for help.
It's against the law to ask
for help in Grouchland.
You have the right
to scream your head off.
Should you give up the right
to scream your head off
someone who'll scream their head
off will be provided for you.
- Come on.
- Me innocent.
Hello? Me needs cookie?
- Okay. Sidney. Little Ricky.
- Here.
- Howard.
- Present.
Listen. I'm going to get
the trap door ready.
You turn the arrow on the sign
so that it points in the tunnel.
- Got it.
- Ready? Break.
Break.
Howard! Howard?
Coming.
Oh! Oh man, oh, ow!
Ow! Your tushy bone
is crushing my skull!
- You're in my ear.
- Sorry.
Here he comes! Everybody hide.
I'm the king of the world!
No, I'm not.
Well, this must be the way.
- Is he in yet?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wow. A tunnel. Cool.
Whoa. It sure is dark in here.
Little help.
Dark and dirty and dusty.
The boss is going to be so proud of us.
Are you guys still here?
Elmo can't see you!
If you're still here, yell "Elmo."
What? Are you saying something?
Elmo still can't hear you.
Please yell louder.
Elmo!
Elmo heard you that time.
Boy, Elmo's glad you're still here.
Elmo needs some light.
Wow. Fireflies.
Hello, fireflies!
Oh, fireflies, can you help Elmo?
Can you help Elmo get out of here?
Wow. Thank you, fireflies!
Oh, nice hat.
This is fun! Whee!
Isn't this fun?
Oh, yay! Thank you, fireflies!
Don't worry, Blanket!
Elmo will be there soon!
Impossible. He's still coming?
I'm walking!
The boss is walking!
The boss is walking!
Ow! Sharp rocks!
Hot rocks! Pointy rocks!
Should've worn shoes!
Ooh-Ooh. The boss is walking!
Baloney Sandwich again? Oh.
Get back to work!
Why is that little red furball so
determined to get this blanket?
Maybe because it's so
devastatingly cuddly.
- What do you think you're doing?
- Just hugging Elmo's Blanket.
Whose Blanket?
I mean, your blanket.
That's right. My blanket.
And I'm the only one who can hold it.
Hey, tissue,
maybe you can be my blanket.
- What do you think you're doing?
- Just holding this tissue, boss.
- Whose tissue?
- Uh, your tissue, boss.
That's right. Mine.
Come here, Bug.
It belongs to me.
The issue at hand is the tissue at hand.
And I wish you would hand
or I'll squish you at hand.
The tissue at hand to the man
who can prove he can be.
The most deserving he.
That's me, me.
Me, me
Thank you, Bug.
Oh, I love that!
Bug, give me that lollipop.
- Yum. Tasty.
- That's mine!
Look at all I got This lamp, this yacht
But what makes having fun
is knowing you have naught
Whoa! Come on, Bug!
Some may call it greed
It's not, it's need
A need I love to feed
The need to have a lot
I give my all to all I seize, see?
- And all I see I give to me.
- Take it, boss!
I see it, take it Then I make it mine
My little stamper adds
a pinch of perfection
On every middle is my little sign.
- Yeah!
- I aim to make it mine.
He sees it, takes it
Then he makes it mine
- I truly care.
- His little stamper
adds a pinch of perfection
I give and give!
On every middle is his little sign.
- He aches, he shakes.
- I ache, I quake.
- To make it mine.
- To make it mine.
Oh, my favorite teddy bear!
Ah, my yo-yo! I love my yo-yo!
Something old, something new.
Something borrowed, something blue.
Things that once belonged to you.
Like this plastic telephone
I love this highway traffic cone.
This wedding cake for Jill and Jake.
This rake This giant rubber snake.
This Chippendale Don't let it break
Oops! It's true.
Love is a many "splintered" thing.
He sees it, takes it, makes it mine.
You better believe it!
What an honor to be in his collection.
It is such an honor.
It's like an offer that
you can't decline.
An offer you can't refuse!
- He aches, he shakes.
- I ache, I quake.
- To make it mine.
- You say you love your old Atari
- I love it more.
- He loves it more
You say you love your new Ferrari.
Mine! I love it more.
He loves it more
Look at me I'm on safari
Things I want my only quarry
I love what is yours
Far more than you.
Doodly-doodly-doodly-do.
And if love means never having
to say you're sorry.
Well, I never do.
The lights!
Somebody turn off the lights!
I see it, take it Then I make it mine
I stamp a valentine A sign of affection.
Four little letters make a word so fine
I ache to make it
I see it, take it Then I make it mine
I give a stamp that says
good-bye to neglection
I got an offer that you can't decline.
When umbrellas disappear
They're not lost,
they're all here
With the keys you cannot find.
Pens and mittens left behind
Got 'em locked up in a box
with a million missing socks.
An army guy, a glove, here's a doll.
Oh, how I love, whoa!
To make it mine
Careful. Yeah,
don't spill the boss' drink.
Okay, keep it balanced now.
- Here's your drink, boss.
- Thank you.
So, did you think of a plan
to stop that Elmo pest yet?
Not yet, boss. I was too busy
listening to you sing.
You got a lovely singing voice.
Why, thank you.
I always fancied myself a singer.
I almost performed in the bus and truck
tour of West Side Story.
They said I wasn't right for
Maria. What do they know?
- I feel pretty.
- Oh, very pretty.
You look pretty. You should take
a weedwacker to those eyebrows.
- What did I say?
- Anyway, I digress.
Right now, I need you to
take care of my archenemy Elmo.
Elmo...
Elmo.
Maybe...
...you should arrange
a little introduction for him...
...to the Queen of Trash.
Huh? Queen of Trash?
But nobody ever escapes her dump.
- Stop the movie! Ernie!
- What's the matter now, Bert?
Oh, this is not good.
Huxley is being mean to Elmo.
It's just not fair.
Why would anybody be so mean
to our little Elmo?
Well, gee, Bert, maybe Huxley
just hasn't learned how to share yet.
Well... Well, Ernie,
do you think he ever will?
Maybe, Bert. I sure hope
that he does. Don't you?
Now come on, Bert, let's go
find out what happens to Elmo.
Okay. Good, great.
Uh, Ernie? Problem.
This way, Bert.
Oh, boy.
Elmo didn't know it'd take this
long to get his Blanket back.
Excuse Elmo!
Excuse Elmo.
Sorry, Mac, this whole area
is closed for construction.
Yeah. Bring it in, boys.
- Slow, slow, slow.
- What's going on?
Slow, slow, slow, slow, slow...
Stop.
- Workmen?
- Nice work, Joey.
- Thank you.
- What?
See, we're putting in a new Tarbucks.
Cause there just ain't enough of
those places around
when you want a nice latte.
But Elmo has to go that way
to get to Huxley's house.
Hey, look. You're making me
fall behind in my work here.
But you look like a good kid,
so I'll tell you which way to go.
- Follow me.
- Okay.
In order to get to Huxley's,
you gotta go down the path...
...through the dump, over there.
Really? Well, thank you very much
for your help. You're very nice.
Nice? You think I'm nice?
Yeah. Very nice. Thank you.
You're welcome.
He hugged me.
- You're lucky you're married...
- Ice cream. Anchovy swirl.
- Right here. Ice cream.
- Yeah. I'll take one.
- Okay.
- Hey, where's my topping?
Oh, right.
- That's disgusting.
- And delicious!
No problem. Have a rotten day.
Ice cream! Anchovy swirl.
Ice cream.
Oh, ice cream. Anchovy swirl?
How I long for a lick.
Oh, Oscar, get over it.
- We've got to think about Elmo.
- Cookie.
- This is hopeless.
- Maybe this'll cheer you up.
- A, B, D, E, F, G.
- Let me out of here!
It's t*rture! Let us out! Please!
That's it! That's it!
I can't take it anymore!
I demand justice!
I want a lawyer! Call the media!
- Start a defense fund!
- Calm down! Calm down, Telly!
Let me get you some water.
Hey, can we get some water in here?
- Thanks.
- I didn't get any.
Thank you.
This shortcut is very long.
Oh, boy. Very smoky.
Halt! You are trespassing
on soiled ground!
- Yeah.
- Wait, wait, wait.
Elmo has to get to Huxley's house.
Oh, no way, bucko.
You're going to see our queen.
- Queen?
- Yeah, and this is her kingdom.
- Ahh. Kingdom.
- Kingdom?
- Kingdom.
- This looks like junk.
He said the "J" word!
You'll find out the difference
between what's junk
and what's beautiful.
What's happening?
What's going on?
Who is that?
Listen up
cause this is all I have to say
This could be the thing
to get you on your way
Just imagine what is old is new again
Maybe then you'll understand
I tell you take a look around.
And tell me that you don't see
Just a worthless pile
of garbage and debris
I see a kingdom
- Shining bright.
- Wow.
I can see the colors
coming through, yeah
You'll find the beauty if you
look at something right.
It's all about your point of view.
And life is
All about your point of view.
- Yeah! You go, girl!
- You go, baby!
Everywhere you look a story can be told
And the tales they tell
are worth their weight in gold
- Hey, that's very inappropriate.
- Sorry.
Settle down.
Rotting castaways and
broken bits of glass, I dare you.
Take a look around and tell me
that you don't see.
Watch this. This is good.
Just a worthless pile of
rotting and debris.
Cause I see a kingdom shining bright
And if you try then
you can see it too, yeah.
You'll see the beauty
if you look at something right
It's all about your point of view.
And life is all about
your point of view.
Oh, it's our turn, come on.
- Yeah.
- Okay, let's go.
Yeah
I see a kingdom.
Shining bright
I can see the colors coming through.
Oh, you'll find the beauty
If you look at something right.
It's all about your point of view.
And life is all about
your point of view.
Your point of view
Where do you think you're going?
Stay right here.
So who is this who trashed my dump?
This is him. Your Majesty.
- He's a trespasser.
- Uh, yeah.
No, no. Elmo's not a trespasser,
Miss Queen.
Silence, trespasser.
He says he's on his way to Huxley's.
- Huxley's, eh?
- And maybe,
maybe he's a Huxley spy.
Yeah. You know what?
I thought about that...
Oh, Elmo's not a spy.
Elmo just wants to get
his Blanket back from Huxley.
Cause it's mine.
Well, you certainly sound like Huxley.
No, Elmo doesn't.
Elmo's not like Huxley.
No, no! It's Elmo's Blanket!
It's mine, mine!
No!
He says he's not like Huxley.
Make him prove it, Your Highness.
- Oh, yeah.
- Yeah, prove it!
Well, I think It's time for
the ultimate challenge.
Oh, goody, goody!
- What's the ultimate challenge?
- You have to give me something.
You see, Huxley could never
give anyone anything.
- That's true.
- Now, if you're able to give...
...then you pass the ultimate
challenge and you're free to go.
Uh, what does Elmo have to give?
Well, you have to give
Her Royal Majesty...
...and that would be me...
100 raspberries.
The Ultimate Challenge.
Elmo doesn't have any fruit.
Now, now, now.
It's not fruit, dear Elmo.
Like this. Watch.
Ooh, that sends shivers down my spine.
Elmo... Well, Elmo can do that.
Elmo knows how to make that sound.
Good. Now, I want you
to give me 100 raspberries...
...in 30 seconds.
Let me go get my raspberry counter.
I'll get it, I'll get it.
No, my turn. I want to get it.
Thirty seconds to do a hundred?
Well, that's why it's called
the ultimate challenge.
- Ready, set, go.
- Oh, no.
Hurry. You're wasting time.
How can Elmo do this?
Oh, wait, wait, wait!
Can you please help
Elmo do raspberries like this?
He's getting help! Is that legal?
Come on! You can do it!
You're doing great!
- He's never going to do it.
- No way. Never been done.
We're doing it!
- Ooh! He's doing it.
- Good, good. Keep going!
You'd better move it.
You'd better move it.
- Ninety!
- I love raspberries.
We did it! Thank you!
Well, you did it.
Yeah.
No one has ever passed
the ultimate challenge before,
and you did it.
- Well...
- He did it! He did it!
- Thank you.
- Since I'm queen of my word...
...you're free to
go and pursue the blanket
or bed covering of your choice.
Thank you, Miss Queen.
And Elmo's sorry
for calling your dump "junk."
It's very pretty!
- Thank you, Elmo.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye, Elmo.
- Good-bye, Elmo!
Good-bye.
I'm going to miss him.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye, Elmo.
It's all about your point of view.
In life it's all about
your point of view
- Eight!
- Go team, go!
Excuse me, boss, don't you want to play?
This usually takes two.
Why should I when you can do it for me?
Besides, I think I'm winning.
Yay!
I told you!
This time I'm keeping it!
Hey, Bug, that was the last ball.
- Hey, let's try boxing!
- Oh, no.
Come on!
Let me see you do your stuff.
Come here, boy. Come on.
Why, that little red bath mat.
Bug, Bug.
Bug, stop playing games.
Come look at this.
Wow. Would you look at that?
Boy, that Elmo's something, huh?
What guts! What spunk!
What chutzpah!
- Bug.
- Huh?
You are really beginning to bug me.
Huh, probably cause I'm a bug.
What is it with this blanket?
That's it.
It's time to take care of that
little red fuzzwad once and for all.
Oh, no! No, no, no, no.
Out of my way.
It is time to release the secret weapon.
No, boss. Anything but that. You
can't do it to the little guy.
Oh, really?
Well, I've had enough toying
with that little red lint ball.
Just watch.
Ping!
Hello, Tiny. Come on.
Rise and shine!
We have work to do!
Elmo, you'll make it.
Just be strong, little guy.
See a kingdom
What's that?
It's getting closer!
Chicken!
I'm not that afraid of a little chicken.
Why should Elmo be afraid
of a little chicken?
That's why.
Hey, you dinner.
Stop running away from me.
I'm trying to eat you.
Leave Elmo alone!
Elmo doesn't want to be eaten.
Will you stop jumping around so much?
You're going to make me gassy.
Leave Elmo alone!
You see what I mean?
Now, stand still like a piece of corn.
Hey, this is not how eating works.
You stay still and then
I sneak up on you...
...and then I eat you.
So come on. I'm ready for a nice,
juicy worm like you.
No! Wait, wait!
- Elmo's not a worm.
- Excuse me. I'm not stupid.
- Elmo knows you're not stupid.
- Good.
But, but worms aren't red, are they?
Oh, well, sometime... Well, no.
- Well, couldn't they be?
- No. No, no.
Uh-uh. Worms aren't fuzzy.
Well, yes, but if...
Will you just be quiet so I can eat you?
Hey, worms can't do this...
Elmo's a little teapot short and stout.
Here is his handle Here is his spout
When you tip me over
Hey, wait a minute.
You're not a worm.
That's what Elmo
was trying to tell you that.
- You're a teapot.
- Huh?
I can't have tea.
I haven't had my din-din yet.
Wow.
Not quite what I had in mind,
but effective nonetheless.
This is not fun.
Oh, no.
Are you guys still here with Elmo?
Yes!
Oh, good. Elmo feels
a lot better with you here.
But Elmo still misses his Blanket.
Wait, wait, wait.
Stop the movie again.
- Ernie, Ernie!
- What now, Bert?
Well, Ernie, this is terrible.
Elmo didn't get his Blanket back.
How can it end this way?
- It's so sad.
- Oh, no, no, no.
Bert. Bert. Bert.
No, Bert. Listen.
- Don't "Bert" me.
- No, it's okay, Bert.
The movie's not over yet.
You mean good things could still happen?
Of course they can, Bert.
In fact, I'm sure
good things will happen,
because who'd want to see
a movie with a sad ending, Bert?
- Titanic.
- What?
Titanic had a sad ending.
No, Bert. Roll the film!
Come on, Bert. Come on.
- Gone With The Wind?
- No, Bert.
- Dr. Zhivago?
- Shh. Quiet, Bert.
Chocolate-covered fish cakes.
Hey, hey, hey, you.
You tangerine.
Maria, there's a grouch.
No, no, no. Wait.
I really want to help.
Well, who, who are you?
All right, all right, all right.
I'm Elmo's friend Grizzy.
- Now listen.
- Elmo's friend? Hey...
Don't let it get around
that I'm helping Elmo!
- So, where is he?
- He went to Huxley's.
What? Huxley!
First this guy ruined
my beautiful Grouchland
and now he's messing with my fr...
Oscar.
Were you going to say "friend"?
No, I was going to say
"french-fried fish heads."
All right. So the little
stinkball is my friend.
I got to go do something about this!
Hey. Listen up, you grouch potatoes.
- Come on over here. Listen to me.
- Why should we listen to you?
- I gotta get my ugly rags.
- Go soak your head, huh?
You call yourselves grouches.
Look at you.
This Huxley character
has taken everything that makes
Grouchland so disgusting
and you're not doing anything about it!
We've got to fight for our trash.
- Yeah.
- Stand up for our slop!
- Yeah.
- Cause...
...when they take our goo,
uh, we got to do!
Yeah, that's right!
When they take our goo, we got to do!
When they take our goo, we got to do!
I love goo!
When they take our goo, we got to do!
When they take our goo, we got to do!
Hey, you, get up!
You're in my spot!
- Get out of my spot now!
- Huh? Elmo's sorry.
Oh, oh, oh, oh. Hey.
Don't cry. I can get a new spot.
- Elmo's not sad about that.
- Oh.
Well, what then, huh? Come on,
my friend, tell me what's wrong.
Elmo didn't get his Blanket back!
Elmo can't do anything!
Elmo's just a little monster!
Little? Hey, look at me, huh?
I'm just a little
tiny caterpillar, right?
- Yeah.
- Wrong.
One day I'm going to be a butterfly.
- You are?
- Oh, yeah, yeah.
I'm gonna change
into a beautiful butterfly.
Yeah, I will.
Cause I have what it takes...
...right here inside.
And you know what, kid?
So do you.
You proved it by getting this far.
Just look inside.
Yeah. You're right! Inside!
Elmo can do it!
Elmo can get to Huxley's house.
Yep. I knew you could, kid.
Thank you, Mr. Caterpillar, thank you!
Don't worry, Blanket!
Elmo's coming!
- Go ahead, eat it.
- You think he'd mind?
- Ah, he wouldn't mind.
- Hey, that bacon's for the boss!
And besides, Howard, your
cholesterol level's way too high.
- Hey.
- Morning, boss.
- Morning, Bug.
- I made you some poached eggs.
I pressed your favorite slacks,
the ones that make you look...
thin and villainous,
and I brewed you some coffee.
- Anything about me in the paper?
- Check page six.
What's it say?
You know I can't read.
Says you're a greedy, no good...
I mean, a lovely man.
Thank you, Bug.
Oh, it's a wonderful day.
My sun is shining,
my birds are chirping...
and my humongous chicken
has defeated Elmo.
No!
Yes!
And the woobie is mine, for keepsies!
The woobie is mine for keepsies
The woobie is mine for keepsies
The woobie is mine for keepsies
for keepsies for keepsies.
Give me those.
Woobie is mine for keepsies
Poor little Elmo.
I simply can't see
what's so special about
this stupid blanket.
Why didn't he just get a different one?
Maybe he loved that blanket.
Oh "Maybe he loved that blanket."
Maybe he loved that blanket."
- You don't know what you're...
- Blanket!
Elmo wants his Blanket back, now!
That little piece of macrame lives!
Blanket!
- Pesties! Pesties!
- Yeah, boss.
Don't let him escape with my woobie!
Ooh, that dirty rat.
We'll get it, boss.
Um, boss?
Oh, brother. Where you going?
Too, too high!
Too High, too high!
Hey, you let Elmo and his Blanket go!
I don't think so.
You and your blanket...
...are both mine now.
- No! No!
- Yes!
- No!
- Yes!
Stop right there, you mean old Huxley!
Zoe.
Yeah, come on. We got him!
- Elmo, are you okay?
- Ah, you do have friends, huh?
Don't they look sweet?
I bet you all just have
a grand old time together...
...just saying the alphabet
and counting all day long.
Mmm, yeah.
It's over, Huxley.
Get him!
Huxley don't pay me enough for this!
- What do you mean, "pay"?
- Let's get out of here!
- I want my mommy!
- Give back my stinky socks!
What? Grouches, cooperating?
How are you going to get out
of this one, Huxley?
- I got a plan.
- Oh, yeah? What?
I don't know.
I haven't figured it out yet.
Not very villainous, is it?
They may save you,
you annoying red monster...
- but they can't save your woobie!
- No, no, no.
That's not a woobie!
That's Elmo's Blanket!
- Hold on, Elmo!
- Be careful.
That's it.
- Slime bucket.
- Yay!
Wait a minute! Wait, wait!
Where's Elmo's Blanket?
No, no! Blanket!
That's my Bug!
Give me back my woobie!
No, boss!
You're nothing but a basket case!
- What?
- This blanket belongs to Elmo.
Blanket!
- Thank you, Bug.
- You're welcome, Elmo.
How... How could you do this to me?
I thought we were friends.
No. You're a greedy, selfish villain...
...and nobody likes to be friends
with a greedy, selfish villain.
Come on, Bug. Be a Bug, huh?
I mean be a bug.
Just for a second.
But give me another chance.
Let me give everything back.
I'll give back all the yo-yos
and all the Rollerblades...
and all those bicycles,
all the kids' toys,
all the dolls, everything.
I'll give it all back!
Bug, Bug, I'll give back
every single teddy bear.
I'll give back the sun and the moon
and the Earth and the stars.
- I'll give it all back...
- Less talkin', more givin'.
You're not in your right frame of mind.
This isn't when you
make an important decision, Bug.
Bug. Bug, listen to me.
I was wrong.
Oh, Blanket.
This is great! Ha!
Oh, thanks for helping, everybody.
Elmo sure is lucky
to have friends like you.
- We're really proud of you, Elmo.
- Yeah, way to go, Elmo.
- You're one brave little monster.
- Oh, thanks, Big Bird.
Let's hear it for Elmo!
Yeah.
Let's go back to Sesame Street!
I know a shortcut. Ready, guys?
Let's go home, Blanket!
Yay!
- Oh, Zoe.
- Hm?
Um... Elmo's sorry
for hurting your feelings.
Can we still be friends?
Well...
Yeah. Friends forever.
Yeah.
Wow!
- I can hold it?
- Sure. What could happen?
Together forever the world seems fine
We never would ever leave you behind
Together forever
The world seems fine
We never would ever.
Leave you behind
Elmo just wanted to say
thanks for helping.
Elmo couldn't have done it without you.
Elmo love you. Bye-bye.
Together forever the world seems fine.
We never would ever leave you behind
See, Bert?
Just like I told you.
- Elmo got his Blanket back.
- Yeah, it's a happy ending.
Yup. And thank you all for helping.
Oh, yeah, yeah. You deserve
a big round of applause.
Oh yeah. Everybody clap for
yourselves. Come on.
- Come on.
- You were great!
Okay, Bert, time to go home.
Yeah, I knew everything
was gonna be okay.
- Sure you did.
- I knew Elmo would get
- his Blanket back.
- Yeah, right.
I knew there would be a happy ending.
- Of course, Bert.
- See ya. Oh, look, look, look.
Ernie, credits! Oh!
I want to see who did the catering.
That was really good toast.
You know, they cut off
the crusts and everything.
Uh, Bert?
Time to feed your pigeons.
- Oh, oh, thank you. Bernice!
- Bye-bye.
