[ Sigh ]

Ahh!

Good morning.

Oh, buenos dias.

Buenos dias?

Yes, that's spanish,
and it means "good day."

Oh, spanish.

I've decided to make
the whole day

Different, fun.

I woke up thinking of a riddle,
but I can't remember the answer.

How does the riddle go?

Well, it goes like this --

What did the huge
hippopotamus say

To the tiny ladybug

When the ladybug asked
the hippo

To help him
across the river?

Oh, um...

I don't know.

Me, neither.

I can't remember it.

But I remember
how funny it was.

Hee hee hee!

Ah, I can see that.

Hee hee hee!

It's leo's birthday
and everyone's very excited.

There was a magician about
to perform magic tricks

Just for them.

[ Drum roll ]

I am bravo the great!

Watch very carefully

As I make a rabbit
appear out of my hat.

But first I must say
the magic words.

Abracadabra!

Alakazoo!

Oh, wow!
A bunny!

Caillou was amazed.

He wanted to see
if the bunny was real.

Can I pet him?

Of course you can.

Me, too.

Can i?

Now for my next trick, I will
make the rabbit disappear,

Using my special
magic cape!

On the count of !

...

!
! !

!
! !

Caillou couldn't believe
his eyes.

The bunny was there one minute,
and then it was gone.

Ta-da!

Wow!

Now, leo, since you're
the birthday boy,

I want you to be
my helper.

Oh, boy!

Now, make sure that
the scarves are all separated.

Caillou couldn't wait to see
what bravo was about to do

With all the colorful scarves.

He loved watching magic tricks.

Good! Now watch carefully.

Hocus pocus,
funny fun!

Scarves, scarves
must be one!

Show me how!

Ha ha! A magician never
reveals

How he does a trick.

Here's one that you
can do, caillou.

Now, watch very closely.

Which hand
has the penny?

[ Gasp ]

It was in your ear
the whole time!

Ha ha!

For being such a good sport,

You can keep
my magic penny!

Thanks!

Bye, clementine!

Bye!

Caillou: I'm going to be
a magician just like bravo!

Which hand?

That one.

Hee hee!
You're not a magician.

Caillou was disappointed.

He really wanted to be
a magician.

And bravo said that it was
a magic penny.

He didn't understand
why it didn't work.

Hi, everyone.

Happy birthday, leo.

Are you all set, caillou?

Bye, caillou.

Bye!

Vroom! Vroom!

No, rosie,
that's mine!

Caillou, let rosie play
with the truck.

Caillou was in a bad mood

Because his magic penny
wasn't working

And leo had said that
he wasn't a magician.

Did you have fun
at leo's party?

I heard there was
a magician.

That must have been
lots of fun.

He gave me his magic penny!

I want to be a magician, too!

Well, it takes lots of practice
to be a magician.

Let me see that magic penny
of yours.

It doesn't work!

I think daddy would know
how to make it work.

Why don't you go
and ask him to help you?

Caillou: daddy!

Daddy: in here, caillou.

Daddy, my magic penny
doesn't work

And I want to be
a magician.

Really? Hmm.

Let's see, did you say
a magic word?

Well, that's why it's
not working.

Every magician needs
a magic word.

Can you think of one?

Alakazoo?

Perfect.

Now try your magic
on me.

It's in that one.

Alakazoo!

Ta-da!

Caillou felt like
a real magician now.

He wanted to do
more magic.

Now you're
caillou the great!

Here, why don't you
put this on?

All great magicians
wear magic capes.

For my next trick,
I need a helper.

Meow!

Gilbert!

Rosie, watch!

I'm going to make gilbert

Disappear with my magic cape.

Count to !

...

...

Gilbert!
Gilbert!

Caillou: !

Ta-da!

He's gone!

I'm caillou the great!

I made gilbert disappear.

How do I get him back?

Well, what do
magicians do

When they want something
to reappear?

I know!

Alakazoo!

Gilbert: meow!

Gilbert!

Caillou made gilbert reappear
with his magic word!

He really loved being
a magician

And he wanted
to do more tricks.

Caillou: come on, rosie, I want
to show you another trick.

Watch!

This coin is magic!

A magician gave it
to me.

Which hand has the penny?

Hee hee hee!

Hee hee hee!

Hold still!

Ta-da!

The penny was in
your ear!

How's my favorite magician?

Want to see my magic tricks?

That sounds like fun.

Okay, wait a minute.

Caillou loved putting on
a magic show for his family.

He felt proud.

He even made up
a few tricks of his own.

Watch me pull a rabbit
from my hat!

[ Rosie giggles ]

Alakazoo!

Ta-da!

Hee hee hee!

Wow, caillou!
How did you do that?

I'm caillou the great!

Hee hee!

Ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha!

What are you
laughing at, teddy?

Oh, it's this really
funny riddle!

Tell me, tell me!
I love riddles!

Okay, okay...

Ha ha ha!

Come on,
I want to know!

I'm trying,
it's just so funny!

Ha ha ha!

What's funny?

Okay, okay.
Here it is.

What did the huge
hippopotamus say

To the tiny ladybug

When the tiny ladybug
asked the hippo

To help her across
the river?

Well, what did he say?

I forget!

Ha ha ha!

I don't get it.

The hippopotamus says,
"I forget."

Oh, well, yeah,
that's funny.

Yeah, yeah, that's really,
really funny!

No, no, no!

No, that's not funny.

The punch line is!

What's the punch line?

The line at the end,

But I forget.

Ha ha ha ha!

I don't get it.

I really don't
get it, teddy.

I just don't want it to be
the same old day.

Rexy: gilbert, gilbert!
Oh, there you are.

Gilbert, gilbert,
I need help.

I need help.

I don't get why teddy

Is laughing so hard
at his joke!

He's laughing because
he remembers

How much he laughed when
he heard it the first time,

But he can't remember now.

Is there something
happening today

That I don't know
about?

No, I just decided
I'm only doing things

I don't usually do today,
just for laughs!

Well, I like
the sound of that.

Maybe I can do
something

To make everybody
laugh, too.

Maybe.

Okay, um...

Um...

Hmm, I can't think
of anything funny to do.

Um...

This is serious.

Hee hee hee!

Ha ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha ha!
You look ridiculous!

Purrrrfect!

Still can't
think of it?

Too bad.

Sounds like it was
really funny!

Ha ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha ha!

Gee, I want to do something
silly and laugh, too.

But the more
I think about it,

The more I can't think
of anything funny.

And that's making me
feel sad.

[ Sigh ]

Now we have rivers!

We can make lots
of rivers!

Mommy: caillou!
Leo!

You have to get ready
now, leo.

Your parents are here
to pick you up.

But we're playing.

We're making rivers!

I know, but it's time
to go over to grandma's.

But I want to stay
and play with leo!

I'm sorry, caillou, but we
really have to go now.

I have to take rosie
to the doctor for a checkup,

And you're going to visit
grandma!

Caillou was very disappointed
that he couldn't stay

And play in the backyard
with leo.

Hello, caillou.

Hi, grandma.

Caillou was still wishing

He could have kept playing
with leo.

Would you like to go out
and play in the backyard?

Is there something
upsetting you today?

I wanted to stay at home
with leo!

You have fun playing
with leo, don't you?

He's my friend.

Well, is there something else
you would like to do?

I know -- I borrowed a book
from the library yesterday.

I thought we might read it
together.

Okay.

At first, caillou wasn't
really interested in the book.

It wasn't as exciting
as playing with leo

In the backyard.

But caillou soon found the book
more interesting.

Caillou and grandma
read the book

About the clown festival.

Caillou enjoyed the book
so much,

He forgot all about wanting
to play with leo.

I like the clown
party book, grandma!

You do?

Well, why don't we have
a clown party

Of our own right here?

But where will we
get the clowns?

We'll make puppet clowns!

Caillou loved making things
with grandma.

Hello, grandma!

First they glued orange wool
on the top of a bag

For clown's hair.

And already caillou
got some ideas.

I'm going to color
this clown

With green polka dots

And the other clown
with red polka dots!

And while caillou
colored the clowns,

Grandma started to make

A puppet theater
for the puppets.

She cut up a big
cardboard box.

This is fun!

We can make a clown dog,
too!

Hello, grandma!

My name is
bopadoo the clown!

Woof woof woof!

Hee hee hee!

Grandma, caillou,
we're back.

Hello!

My name is
bopadoo,

And I can't find
my dog!

Woof woof woof!

Has anyone seen my dog?

Here, doggy!
Here, doggy!

It's doggy!

Mommy: very good!

Encore! Encore!

Yay!

You can have leo over
all day tomorrow, caillou.

Yay!
We can play puppet clowns!

Ha ha!
This is k*lling me!

There's nothing funny

About not remembering
the punch line!

I know!
Ha ha!

Wish I could understand
what's so funny.

Oh! Ha ha!
Oh, my.

Ha ha ha ha!

I don't get it.

You don't get it
because he forgot!

I still don't get it.

Oh, well, you see,
what's so funny

Is that teddy
remembers it was funny,

But he can't remember
what the punch line is.

That's so silly,
it's making me laugh!

Oh, well,
maybe the hippo said,

"I don't know
if I can take you."

That's it -- the pressure!

"I don't know if I can
take the pressure!"

Ha ha!

You know, pressure,
meaning weight, too heavy.

And pressure, meaning
responsibility,

Keeping him safe.

That's not
very funny.

I know.

Ha ha ha!
Ha ha!

I still don't
get the joke,

But seeing you two
laugh so hard

Is making me feel
like laughing, too.

Hee hee!

Well, laughter
is contagious.

Oh, oh --
is this funny?

Ha ha ha ha!

Would caillou laugh
at this?

Ha ha ha!

I was sad because I didn't
know how to be funny,

And now I'm being funny
without even trying.

Hee hee!

Ha ha ha!
Ha ha!

Well, funny is like that.

Oh, I just knew this day
would be different.

Ha ha ha ha!

Yippee!
It's time to celebrate!

[ Gasp ]

Ha ha!

There.

Perfect!

Oh, oh!

Okay.

[ Sniff ]

[ Sigh ]

"Ode to a daisy."

Oh, this is
going to be good!

Um...ah!

Now, what rhymes
with "great elation"?

That means
"terrific happiness."

Hmm...

That's tricky.

[ Sigh ]

I miss caillou
when he's gone.

Oh, well, I guess when you're
off doing exciting things

Like going to the beach,

You don't miss
a tiny little dinosaur.

[ Sigh ]

I'm so lonely.

I have nobody
to play with.

[ Sigh ]

One day, caillou got up
extra early.

Mommy: caillou, breakfast!

He was waiting for the mail
because he was expecting

A letter from his friend
xavier.

Caillou, what are you
doing in here?

I'm waiting for
my letter.

And your breakfast is
waiting for you.

Come on, I mean it.

Your letter will
come soon enough.

Daddy!

Finished, mommy!

Finished?
Really?

Almost finished,
daddy.

Caillou wanted to finish
his breakfast

As quickly as possible
so he could get his letter

As soon as it arrived.

Gilbert!

Meow!

[ Whistling ]

While caillou was
finishing his breakfast,

Rosie was picking up
his letter.

Is my letter here?

I'm sorry, caillou.

It'll probably come
tomorrow.

I want it now, mommy!

Caillou was very disappointed
not to get xavier's letter.

But just then...

Caillou was sure
that was his letter.

Rosie!
Give me that!

What does it say?

It's an invitation
to xavier's birthday party.

Only it's not just a party,
it's a mexican fiesta!

What's that?

It's called
a piñata.

What's a piñata?

Well, it's a kind
of game.

It's got a surprise
inside.

What kind of surprise?

Daddy: if mommy
told you that,

It wouldn't be
a surprise.

It's a very nice
surprise.

Tell me, mommy!

It'll be much more fun
to find out when you go

To the party,
don't you think?

[ Children laughing ]

Hey, caillou!

Hi, leo, this is
fun, isn't it?

I love these balloons!

My mom
made me a cake!

Man: it's time for
the piñata, everybody.

Child: there's a big surprise
inside the piñata.

What is the surprise?

Well, if you hit the piñata
just right with this stick,

It will burst open
and you'll find out.

Caillou wasn't sure
where the piñata was,

But he loved playing
the game.

[ Children laughing ]

Ow!

[ Children gasp ]

It was clementine's turn
next.

And then xavier's.

[ Children laughing ]

This is getting
very exciting!

The piñata almost
broke that time.

I can do it!

Go!
Come on!

Caillou could hear
the sound of the surprise,

And then he could see
the surprise.

The piñata was full
to bursting with candies!

Candy!
Candy!
Yay!

[ Humming ]

They're going to love this!

[ Humming ]

Oh, I can do this.
I know I can!

Let's see,
great elation...

Oh, boy, this is
causing me frustration!

Huh?

Elation, frustration?

They rhyme!

Oh, but then that doesn't go
with how I feel about the daisy.

Frustration is a kind of
disappointment,

And, well, I feel fabulous
about this little daisy.

[ Sigh ]

Got to think!

[ Sigh ]

[ Sigh ]

There's nothing much to do
when caillou is away.

Everybody has something to do
but me.

Caillou and rosie were having
breakfast one morning,

And rosie wanted her tiger
to have breakfast, too.

Hee hee hee!

Okay, rosie.

Hee hee hee!

Growl!

Grrrrr!

Yum, yum, yum!

Grrrr!

Hee hee hee!

Well, since you're so good
at feeding that tiger,

Why don't you give our big tiger
his breakfast as well?

Our big tiger?

Gilbert!

Caillou loved feeding gilbert.

Gilbert?

I think he went outside.

Gilbert!

Gilbert!

Meow!

Meow!

[ Gasp ]

But it wasn't gilbert,
it was sarah's cat, ollie.

Ollie!
That's gilbert's food!

That's the second time you've
done that this week.

Can you take ollie home,
please?

And see if you can find
gilbert.

Okay.

Roar, roar!

Hee hee!

Gilbert?

Ollie?

Gilbert came into our house
and tried to take ollie's food.

We were bringing him home.

Ollie tried to take
gilbert's food!

[ Laughing ]

Meow!
Meow!

Gilbert!

Meow!

Ollie!
Ollie!

Meow!
Meow!

[ Gasp ]
[ gasp ] [ gasp ]

Caillou, this is
my cousin, li wan.

Hello.

Hello.

Li wan's staying with us
for chinese new year.

Caillou had never heard of
chinese new year's before.

It's the year of the tiger.

A tiger?

We call the new year
the year of the tiger.

But there isn't really
a tiger.

There is a dragon, though.

A real dragon?

Yes, we're going to
see it tomorrow.

Would you like to come
with us to see the dragon?

At first caillou wasn't sure

If he wanted to see
a real dragon.

Yes!

Caillou was excited that he
was going to see

A real dragon with sarah
and li wan.

What is it?

Woman: it's to wish you lots
of happiness in the new year.

And that one is to
wish you a long, long life.

Do you want to help me
put it up?

Mom, caillou said he wanted
to see the dragon tomorrow.

Is that right?

Would you like to
come with us

To chinatown,
caillou?

What's that?

It's where
the dragon lives.

I'll give your mommy
a call

And ask her if it's
okay, then.

Did you clean
your room, sarah?

Yes, mommy.

We have to clean
the whole house

From top to bottom
for the new year.

Why?

I don't know,
we just do.

Did you get a special
new year coin today?

Li wan felt sorry
for caillou

Because he didn't get
a special new year coin

And asked sarah
if they could give him one.

Sure.

Caillou had never seen
a special new year coin before.

Happy new year!
Happy new year!

Xin nian hao.
Xin nian hao.

Meow!
Meow!

[ Cats meowing ]

Oh, no, it looks like
the year of two tigers!

Ha ha!
Ha ha! Ha ha!

[ Purring ]

Are you excited
about going

To chinatown with
your friends, caillou?

Yes, mommy!

Caillou was excited about going
with his friends.

But he was also a bit nervous
about seeing a dragon.

He wasn't so sure if he wanted
to go anymore.

You must be a bit scared
about seeing a dragon,

So I thought you would like
the story

About the big friendly dragon.

That was one of caillou's
favorite stories.

"Once upon a time, there was
a big, friendly dragon

"Who lived in a forest.

All of his friends would
gather around and they would..."

The next day, caillou went
to chinatown with his friends

For a special
new year's meal.

Would you pass me
the jiaozi, please?

[ Giggling ]

Um, could you pass them
again, please?

Hee hee hee!
Hee hee!

How would you two like
some more tang yuan?

Yes!

Here it comes.

Go ahead, honey.
Here are your jiaozi.

That was pretty clever,
mom.

I thought so, too.

You can use
your fingers.

[ Fireworks exploding ]

What's that?

That means the dragon
is coming!

The dragon's coming!
The dragon's coming!

Wow!

Caillou loved seeing
the new year dragon,

And he wasn't scared
at all

Because it was
a friendly dragon.

Hee hee hee!

Happy new year!
Happy new year!

Xin nian hao.
Xin nian hao.

Happy new year!

Bye!
Bye!

Okay, bye-bye.

Be good, love you.

Bye!

All right, what are we
going to do today?

We're going to make
lots of surprises.

I forgot my briefcase.
Bye!

Bye!
Bye!

Look at all those strawberries,
wow!

You guys are doing great!

Look!

Ha ha ha!

Then, after I do that,

Then you can help me put
the strawberries in, right?

Yeah!
The ones that are
sliced, okay?

Yeah, the ones
that are sliced.

You did a great job!

What are you doing?

In the house!

Close your eyes!

Wow!

Holy smoke!

We are the luckiest parents
in the whole wide world!

Thank you,
mom and dad!



Ha ha ha!

This is going to be
the perfect surprise.

Ugh, ugh...

There.

I can't wait for gilbert
and rexy to see this.

Ha ha ha!

Oh, this is hopeless!

Odes are hard to write!

Poets have trouble
making rhymes sometimes.

Oh!

Oh, no caillou.

No rosie.

And gilbert writing an ode,

And teddy had to work
on a project.

[ Sigh ]

I haven't got any friends
today.

It's enough to make me feel
like a sad little dinosaur.

Great elation, great elation!

Oh, there must be something
that would rhyme with that.



What did you do
that for?

Celebration!

Huh?

Celebration.

Celebration of what?

Well, well...

You need a reason
to celebrate?

But I --

What was I thinking of
when I walked in?

Oh, yes, yes, yes,
a rhyme for "great elation."

And you said "celebration,"
and I --

I said "great elation,"

You said "celebration"!

Great elation,
celebration!

Get it?

Not really.

They rhyme!
They rhyme!

Listen --
great elation...

Celebration!
Hear it?

Oh, oh,
what's happening?

We're having
a celebration!

We are?

We are?

But I thought
you said that --

Well, now we have a reason
to celebrate.

You finished my rhyme,
see?

It goes like this --

"Ode to a daisy."

Daisy, daisy, daisy,

I feel great elation,
every time I look at you,

It's a celebration!

That rhymes.

Well, I'm ready.

We've got decorations,

We have food.

And friends!

Ha ha!
Happy celebration!

Ha ha!



A great, great
celebration!

Ha ha ha!

What's a celebration?



Oh, a party.

All right!

And I've got all of you
to celebrate with.

I'm not lonely anymore.









When good things happen,

It's time to celebrate!
