01x03 - The Yeti

Post by bunniefuu »

Hi, I'm pablo.

My name's tyrone.

I'm uniqua.

I'm tasha.

And my name's austin.

All:
and we're...

* Your backyard friends,
the backyardigans *

* Together with
the backyardigans *

Pablo:
* in the place
where we belong *

Uniqua:
* where we'll probably
sing a song *

Tasha:
* and we'll maybe dance along

All:
* we've got the whole wide world
in our yard to explore *

* We always find things
we've never seen before *

* That's why every day
we're back for more *

* With your friends,

* The backyardigans *

All:
"the yeti"

Pablo:
stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

Oh, hi!
It's me, pablo.

I'm being a yeti!

A yeti is a great big beast
who's slow and hairy,

And a little bit smelly.

Plus, yetis stomp a lot.

Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

(Giggles)

It's so great being a yeti,
it makes me want to yell!

Yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

* I'm stompin'
that yeti stomp. *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

* I'm stompin'
that yeti stomp. *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
I'm the yeti! *

* Hear my yeti yell:
yeti-yeti-yeti! *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
I'm the yeti! *

* Smell my yeti smell.

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! *

* I'm hairy from my head
to my yeti toes; *

* I'll make a sound
that's a little bit scary *

* When I blow my yeti nose.

* I'm big, I'm furry
and in no hurry; *

* I like raisins,
and spaghetti. *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
Get ready! *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
I'm the yeti! *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

* I'm stompin'
that yeti stomp. *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

* I'm stompin'
that yeti stomp. *

Yetis like to live
where it's cold and snowy.

So I'm going to
my beautiful igloo

In the frozen north,

And I'm going to stomp
the whole way.

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
I'm the yeti! *

* And I'm stomp-stomp-stomping
forth *

* On a long cold hike
to my favorite place, *

* In my igloo
in the frozen north; *

* I'm gonna stomp up there
with my messy hair *

* Kinda dirty
and a little bit sweaty. *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
Get ready! *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
I'm a yeti! *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

* I'm stompin'
that yeti stomp. *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

* I'm stompin'
that yeti stomp! *

You know what else yetis do?

We give people snow bellies!

So if anyone tries
to follow me to my igloo,

I'll rub snow
all over their bellies!

(Giggles)
yeti-yeti-yeti!

See you!

Uniqua:
c'mon tasha!

I'll take your picture outside!

Tasha:
okay. Where do you want me
to stand?

Uniqua:
how about over there,
by the picnic table!

Tasha:
okay.

Smile tasha!

Tasha:
(giggles)

Tyrone:
hi uniqua. Hi tasha.

Uniqua:
oh, hi tyrone.

Get in the picture with tasha.

Tyrone:
okay.

Uniqua:
smile you two!

Good one.

(Giggles)

Pablo:
yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!

What was that?

I'd recognize that sound
anywhere!

It's the yell of the yeti
of the frozen north!

The yeti?!

Oh,
for goodness sake!

There's no such thing
as a yeti!

Uniqua:
how do you know?

Tasha:
'cause, I'm an expert.

I know all about
the frozen north.

And I know for sure that
there's no such thing as a yeti.

Pablo:
yeti-yeti-yeti!

Then what was that?

Might be a yeti.

Whatever it was,
it wasn't a yeti.

(Uniqua sniffs)

Hey, do you smell something?

(Sniffing)

Eww!

It might be
the yeti.

There's no
such thing.

Besides, nothing
that stinky

Could be real.

Well, maybe.

Pablo:
yeti-yeti-yeti!

But, maybe we should
follow that sound.

Uniqua:
and find the yeti!

Tasha:
or not.

Uniqua:
and take its picture.

Tasha:
or not.

And prove that
yetis do exist!

You mean, prove that
there's no such thing.

Tyrone:
maybe, we should get
going to the frozen north.

Tasha:
you're right.

I've been there many times.

And as an expert
I know all about it.

It's very snowy.

Tyrone:
yeah and-

Tasha:
and it's very icy.

Uniqua:
yeah, and-

Tasha:
and there are frosty mountain
peaks!

Pablo:
* stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

* I'm doing the yeti stomp.

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

(Giggles)

Tyrone:
which way should we go?

I think we should
head north.

Yetis like to live
where it's cold and snowy.

And the further north you go,

The colder
and snowier it gets.

I know,
I'm a frozen north expert.

Tyrone:
okay. North... Let's see.

Tasha:
I'm the expert
and north is this way.

Follow me!

Tyrone:
uh, tasha?

The compass says north
is this way.

Tasha:
of course it is,
just like I said.

Now, let's get going.

Uniqua:
yeah, let's get snow going!

* What do we do
on the frozen ground? *

Uniqua, tasha, and tyrone:
* keep on snow going.

Uniqua:
* what do we do
when the wind blows around? *

Uniqua, tasha, and tyrone:
* keep on snow going.

Tyrone:
* when the snow's in our nose
and our eyes and our ears, *

* We just laugh
'cause we have no fears; *

Tasha:
* we trudge on forth
through the frozen north. *

Uniqua, tasha, and tyrone:
* keep on snow going.

* Keep on snow going.

* Keep on snow going.

Uniqua:
* way up north
where it's always winter *

* And it's never warm
and breezy; *

Tasha:
* some say it's hard
to go through the snow, *

Tyrone:
* but us, we think it's easy.

Uniqua:
* we don't care,
we like the cold. *

Uniqua, tasha, and tyrone:
* keep on snow going.

Uniqua:
* when the air gets chilly,
we get bold. *

Uniqua, tasha, and tyrone:
* keep on snow going.

Tasha:
* while everyone else
is inside sittin' *

* Trying not to get
frostbitten, *

Tyrone:
* we wear extra socks
and mittens. *

Uniqua, tasha, and tyrone:
* keep on snow going.

* Keep on snow going.

* Keep on snow going.

* Keep on snow going!

Tyrone:
look! Tracks!

Uniqua:
I'd recognize those tracks
anywhere.

They're the tracks
of the yeti!

Tasha:
oh for goodness sake!

It just looks like somebody
was stomping.

They are yeti tracks,
tasha.

There's no such thing
as a yeti, uniqua.

Tyrone:
maybe we should follow
the tracks

So we can find out
who left them.

* C'mon, let's snow-go
on our way; *

Uniqua:
* we say, yay to a snowy day;

Tasha:
* nine pair of socks
and we're okay. *

Uniqua, tasha, and tyrone:
* keep on snow going.

* Keep on snow going.

* Keep on snow going.

Somebody's following me,

And you know what that means...
(Giggles)

I'll have to give them
a snow belly!

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

Boy, all this stomping
makes me hungry.

Good thing I brought my
raisins... Yummy!

Now on to my beautiful igloo.

It's so beautiful,
it makes me want to yell!

Yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!

Tyrone:
the compass says
we're still heading north,

And so are the tracks.

Tasha:
those snowy mountains
up ahead-

Uniqua:
these are the first-ever
pictures of yeti tracks!

Ahem!

Those snowy mountains
up ahead

Are called
the snowy mountains of snow.

I know what everything in
the frozen north is called

Because I'm a frozen north
expert.

Tyrone:
hey, what are those?

Tasha:
what?

Uniqua:
I'd recognize that anywhere!

They're yeti droppings!

Actually, they're just raisins.

They are too yeti droppings.

Yetis do a lot of dropping
because their hands are hairy,

And a little sweaty.

Tasha:
eew!

These are the first pictures
ever of yeti droppings!

Get in there, tyrone!

Pablo:
yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!

Uniqua:
the yeti!

Tasha:
you guys! It's just the wind!

Uniqua:
it's coming from right over
that hill.

Tyrone:
to the north!

Tasha:
which, by the way,
is called the hill of the north.

Uniqua:
we're catching up to him!

Come on! Come on!

Tasha:
you'll notice that it's a long
way up the hill of the north.

Tyrone:
you can say that again.

Tasha:
it's a long way up
the hill of the north.

(Tyrone and tasha giggle)

Uniqua:
hurry up, you guys!

When we get to the top,
maybe we'll see him!

Tasha:
I don't see any yeti.

Uniqua:
we lost him.

And we were so close!

Mr. Yeti!
Where are you?!

(Echoes)

I wanna to take your picture!

Tasha:
uniqua, shhhh!

Uniqua:
mr. Yeti!

Tasha:
shhhh! Uniqua?

You should never yell

When you're on the hill
of the north.

Tyrone:
why not?

Tasha:
the sound might shake
some snow loose,

And that would be a problem.

Tyrone:
what kind of problem?

Tasha:
a big problem!

(Rumbling)

Tyrone:
uh-oh.

Uniqua:
come on!

Weee!

Uniqua:
hey, good idea!

Tyrone:
wait for me!

Tyrone:
it's gaining on us!

All:
whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

Whoa!

Whoa!

All:
(scream)

Phew!

That was
a close one.

It certainly was.

Tyrone:
I don't see
the tracks anymore.

Uniqua:
so which way do we go?

Tyrone:
we keep going north
across the lake.

I can't wait to give
those guys snow bellies.

Yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!

Uniqua:
did you hear that?

Come on, we have
to get across the lake!

Tyrone:
I don't know.

That water looks
awfully cold.

As an expert, I know the best
way to cross cold water.

Tyrone and uniqua:
how?

Tasha:
we paddle across in kayaks.

Tyrone:
that certainly is convenient.

Tasha:
and, I'm an expert kayaker.

Really?
Well, so am i.

I'm really fast.

Well so am i.

Tyrone:
excuse me,
I'm going to get started.

I'll see you two
on the other side.

Tasha:
I'll race you
to the other side.

Uniqua:
I'll b*at you
to the other side.

Ready... Set... Go!

All:
* row your boat,
row your boat, *

* Row your boat,
boat, boat. *

* Row your boat,
row your boat, *

* Row your boat,
boat, boat. *

Uniqua:
* row, row, row your boat,

* Look how fast I ride;

* Gonna be the first to paddle
to the other side. *

Tasha:
* row, row, row your boat,

* I'll go even faster; *

* I'm so quick and smooth
and slick *

* Just call me kayak master. *

All:
* row your boat, row your boat,
row your boat, row your boat! *

Tyrone:
* can't afford
to make a mistake *

* Rowing on
this freezing lake; *

* 'Cuz if I make
a little mistake *

* I'll hit the ice,
my boat will break. *

* So I row, row,
row real slow, *

* Trying to keep afloat; *

* Rowing kind of wobbly 'cause
my antlers rock the boat. *

Uniqua & tasha:
* race your boat,
race your boat, *

* Race your boat,
boat, boat. *

* Race your boat,
race your boat, *

* Race your boat,
boat, boat. *

* Race!

Uniqua and tasha:
I won!

Tasha:
excuse me, but I'm the winner.

Uniqua:
no, I'm the winner.

Tasha:
but I got here first.

Uniqua:
actually, I got here first.

Tyrone:
guys?

Tyrone:
north is this way.
Come on!

Uniqua:
yeah, come on!

Tasha:
oh, for goodness sakes!
You come on!

Pablo:
woosh! Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!
Woosh! Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

Well, I'm getting closer
to my beautiful igloo

And those guys are still
following me.

That means it's almost
snow belly time!

Nice one!

Tyrone:
come on! Over here!

Uh-oh.

Tyrone:
hey, what's that on the ground?

Uniqua:
I'd recognize that anywhere.

It's yeti markings!

Tasha:
that's not yeti markings,
it's only a snow angel!

Uniqua:
it's a yeti snow angel.

Tasha:
but there's no such thing
as a yeti!

Is too!

Is not.

Is too!

Is not.

Is too!

Tasha:
is not.

Uniqua:
is too!

Is not.

Uniqua:
* I say we're going
to find that yeti. *

Tasha:
* and I say
there's no such thing. *

Uniqua:
* I say we've almost
got him already.

Tasha:
* and I say
there's no such thing. *

Uniqua:
is too!

Tasha:
is not!

Is too!

Is not!

Tyrone:
* a disagreement
is what we've got, *

* So to find
some common ground *

* We have to find
what made that sound. *

Pablo:
yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!

Uniqua:
there's that yeti again!

Tasha:
* I say that wasn't
a yeti sound. *

Uniqua:
* and I say, yes it was.

Tasha:
* I say the yeti
doesn't even exist. *

Uniqua:
* and I say, yes it does.

Tasha:
does not!

Uniqua:
does too!

Tasha:
does not!

Uniqua:
does too!

Tyrone:
* there's only one thing
we can do *

* Instead of going round
and round: *

* We've got to find
what made that sound. *

Uniqua:
it's the yeti.

Tasha:
is not!

Uniqua:
is too!

Tasha:
is not!

Uniqua:
is too!

Uniqua, tasha:
is too! Is not!

Tyrone:
hey, it's snowing!

Uniqua:
that's okay.

A little snow won't stop us.
Come on.

Tyrone:
it sure is windy, too.

Uniqua:
that's okay.

A little snow and wind
won't stop us.

Tyrone:
what do you call it
when it gets

Really, really snowy
and windy?

Tasha:
as an expert,
I'd call it a blizzard.

Uniqua:
that's okay.

A little blizzard
won't stop us.

Tyrone:
but the snow is covering up
the footprints!

Uniqua:
now that might stop us.

Tasha, do you see anything?

Tasha:
well, I don't see the tracks
anymore - just snow.

Tyrone:
and I don't hear that sound
anymore - just wind.

Uniqua:
and I don't smell
that smell anymore.

I'm just cold.

Tasha:
brrrr! It is cold!

Tyrone:
it certainly is.

Let's go someplace
we can warm up.

Tasha:
like where?

Uniqua:
well, you're the expert.

You know, I think I see
something over there!

It's an igloo!

Look!
Here they come...

Right to my beautiful igloo!

You know what that means -
snow belly time!

(Giggles)

Uniqua:
wow! What a beautiful igloo.

Tyrone:
I wonder if anybody's home.

Uniqua:
hello?

Tasha:
I'm freezing,
let's just go inside!

It is a beautiful igloo!

Uniqua:
it's nice and warm.

I wonder who lives here.

Tyrone:
I'm sure they won't mind

If we just warm up
for a minute.

What if it belongs
to the yeti?

Uniqua, there's
no such thing.

And even if there was,

He'd live somewhere
hairy and yucky,

Not a nice place like this.

Uniqua:
(sniffs)

Wait...

(Sniff, sniff)

There's that smell again.

It smells yeti-ish.

Yeah, I smell something too.

Tyrone,
what are you eating?

Raisins.

Raisins?

Tyrone:
yeah. Want some?

Tasha:
no, thank you.

(Gasp) the smell,
the raisins, the sound...

Tasha:
what sound?

Pablo:
yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!

Uniqua:
that sound!

You guys! We're in the igloo
of the yeti!

I repeat,
there's no such thing as a yeti.

Uniqua:
* I say yetis are really real. *

Tasha:
* and I say that's just silly.

* There's no yeti,
not at all. *

Uniqua:
* it's really real,
yes really! *

No way!

Yes way!

No way!

Yes way!

Tyrone:
* going back and forth all day

* Is no way to decide.

* We should probably look
outside. *

Pablo:
yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!

It's time for some
snow bellies!

I love giving snow bellies
so much

It makes me want to yell!

Yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!

Tyrone:
there it is again!

Uniqua:
the yeti is right outside!

It's just the wind,
and I'm gonna to prove it.

Come on!

Tyrone:
look! More tracks!

Uniqua:
if there's no such thing
as a yeti,

Then who made these tracks?

Tasha:
I don't know.

And who made that noise
and that smell?

I don't know.

(Giggles)

Uniqua:
and who left those raisins?

Tasha:
I don't know.

But I do know that there's
no such thing as a yeti!

Pablo:
yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!
Whoa!

Tasha:
what was that?

Tyrone:
whatever it was,
it's in that pile of snow.

Uniqua:
I know what it is!

Tasha:
I know what
you're going to say,

But there's no such thing
as a-

Pablo:
hi guys!

Tasha:
(gasps) (scream)

It's a yeti! A yeti!
Run!

Tyrone :
pablo, it's you!

Uniqua:
you're the yeti!

Pablo:
hi tyrone! Hi uniqua!

Where's tasha going?

Hey tasha, come back!

(Laughs)

Tasha, it's me, pablo!

Tasha:
it's you?

Oh, it's you!

I told you guys that there was
no such thing as a yeti.

Pablo:
sure there is!
I'm the yeti! Listen.

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! *

* Doin' that yeti stomp. *

* Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

* Doin' that yeti stomp! *

Yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti-yeti!

All:
(giggle)

Tasha:
wow! You're a really good yeti.

Pablo:
thank you, tasha.

Tasha:
and I should know,
I'm a frozen north expert.

Uniqua:
hey pablo,
can I take your picture?

Pablo:
sure.

Uniqua:
the first picture
of a yeti, ever!

Get in there,
you guys!

Three... Two... One...

All:

(Giggles)

Pablo:
you know,
there's something else

You guys should know
about yetis.

Really?
What's that?

Yetis like to give people
snow bellies!

Uniqua:
oh no!

Tyrone:
run for it!

Pablo:
ahh, snow bellies!

I'm gonna get you!

(Playful laughter
and screams)

(Stomach rumbles)

What was that?

Speaking of bellies,
I'm kinda hungry.

Uniqua:

for some hot chocolate?

Tyrone:
okay!

Pablo:
hot chocolate!

Tasha:
cool, hot chocolate!

Pablo:
hooray!

Got any raisins?!

Tyrone:

adventure, don't you think?

Tasha:
yeah!

Pablo:

Uniqua:
