- Quack, quack!
Quack, quack, quack!

Quack, neighbor!
It's me, Daniel,

but I'm pretending to be a duck.

Quack like a duck with me!
Quack, quack, quack, quack!

(laughing)
Come on!

Quack, quack, quack, quack,
quack, quack!

- Time to get ready to go,
Daniel.

- Quack, quack, quack!
I'm not Daniel, I'm a duck.

(laughing)
- Good thing I speak duck!

Quack, quack, quack, quack.
- What does that mean, Mom?

- It means
put on your clothes,

it's time to go
to the post office.

- The post office?
Did we get a package?

- We did.
- Ooh... Maybe it's for me!

I'll get ready so, so, so fast.
Come on, let's go to my room.

Quack, quack, quack.

I'm big enough to pick out
my own clothes now.

I like to wear my favorite
red sweater -

'cause it's my favorite.

Where is my red sweater?

Do you see it?

Mm-hmm...

No... No...

Not in my drawers...

Oh, red swea-ter!

Do you see my red sweater
anywhere?

I can't find it! Mom?

- What is it, Daniel?

- My red sweater...is gone!

- No, it's not gone.
- It isn't?

Where is it?
- It was dirty,

so it's in the wash.
- But...I want to wear

my red sweater.
It's my favorite.

I always wear it. See?

- Well, why don't you pick out a
different sweater to wear?

- A different sweater?

- I know you love
your red sweater.

But why don't you give a
different sweater a try?

- I always wear my red sweater,

so if I don't wear it,

then I won't be...me.
- Yes, you will.

OK. I'll try
a different sweater today.

- Good, I'm proud of you.

- Hmm... Different sweater.

I guess I'll wear...this one.
Blue.

Like Dad's sweater.
- Oh, good.

There we go... Now let's see.

- Whoa. I look...different.

- Hmm... You do look
a little different.

But you're still Daniel
on the inside.

- Mom, what are you doing
with my duckie hat?

- Quack, quack, quack!
I'm Mrs. Duckie!

- No, you're my mom!

- You're right,
I still am your mom

on the inside - even when
I'm wearing a duck hat.

- And I'm still Daniel - even
when I'm wearing a blue sweater.

- Mm-hmm. Now, Ready to go
to the post office?

- Ready! Come on.

Hi, Trolley.
Like my blue sweater?

It's blue. Not red.

See? Blue!
(Trolley dinging bell)

Buckle up.

- Please take us to the
post office, Trolley.

- Hello there.
- Greetings.

- Hi
- Prince Wednesday?

- Daniel?
- You look...different.

- So do you!

- You're not wearing
your glasses.

- And...you're not wearing
your red sweater.

- But you always

- Dr. Anna is fixing them
because I broke them...

...by mistake.
- How did you break them?

- Let me show you.

First, I was doing this...

Then I was jumping around
like this.

Then I spun
around and around...

(Daniel laughing)
Whoa!

And my glasses fell off
onto the ground.

- Oh...
- So where's your red sweater?

- It was dirty and my mom
put it in the wash.

- So we both look
different today.

- Yeah, we do. But...

- Wasn't that grr-ific?

- Daniel, it's time we headed
over to the post office.

- Oh yeah!
We have a package.

- Ooh, that's fun!
Can we walk with Daniel?

- Certainly. We have some time
before your glasses are ready.

- Grr-ific!

(laughing)

- Hi, Lady Elaine!
- A royal hello!

Everything must go! Ha ha!

- Ooh... Hats!

Look at me,
Prince Wednesday!

- Who are you?
Where's Daniel?

- Prince Wednesday!
I'm a cowboy!

See? It's a cowboy hat!

- Ohh... Yeah, now I see!

It just looked like
a fuzzy brown blob.

I guess I really
need my glasses!

- Dr. Anna!
- Well hello, Daniel.

Good to see you.
What a lovely blue sweater.

- Thank you.
- Prince Wednesday,
I fixed your glasses.

- Thank you.
- Thank you for being patient.

- And thank you for bringing
them to us, Dr. Anna.

- Ah! I can see everything
clearly again.

Hello, me! I haven't seen you
in a while.

- And be sure to wear this when
you're playing,

so your glasses
don't fall off again.

- Okay, I will.

- Hey, your glasses
didn't fall off! Grr-ific!

Hmm...

Something looks different
about you today. Hmm...

- I'm wearing a blue sweater.

- I look different,
but it's still me!

- Well, I'm glad
it's you, because

I have a package for you.
- Thank you, Mr. McFeely.

- Who is it from, Daniel?

- It's from Grandpere -
I can tell by the stamp.

It's a boat just like his.

- Wow! A red sweater,
just like my other one!

- (chuckling) How did
Grandpere know?

Would you like to put it on?
- Hmm... No thanks.

I kind of like
my blue sweater,

and I want to keep wearing it -
today, anyway.

- That's my big tiger.

- Hello, neighbor!
(Margaret gurgling)

- Look what I have.

It's a picture of Teacher
Harriet. I made it myself.

I'm going to give it to her
because she's

a grr-ific teacher.

Have you ever made
a present for someone?

What did you make?

I can't wait
to give this to her!

- OK, my fuzzy tiger,
let's go inside.

- Come with me!
- There's my girl!

(Margaret babbling)

Look at her go!

(Daniel humming)

(Margaret gurgling drowsily)
Uh-oh, looks like

it's someone's nap time.
Time for us to go, Daniel.

Ugga Mugga.
- Ugga Mugga.

Bye, Mom. Bye, Margaret.

- Let's find Teacher Harriet so
we can give her my picture.

Will you help me? Let's go!

Hi, Katerina!

Umm.... Hmm...

Do you see Teacher Harriet?

Hmm...

(Prince Wednesday laughing)

- Teacher Harriet!
Where are you?

- Hello, Daniel.

How are you today?
- Huh?

Teacher Harriet?
You look...different.

- I do? Oh! Yes, I do!

I changed my hair.
Usually it's down,

but today it's up
in this bun. See?

- But why did you do that
to your hair?

- Well, sometimes it's nice to
do something different.

- But...

You don't look like
you anymore.

- Even though I look different
on the outside,

I'm still the same
Teacher Harriet on the inside.

- I guess...

- I still like to teach you
things, and play the guitar,

and I'm still your teacher.

this blue part over here.

on it. Thank you Daniel.

I'm helping Prince Wednesday.

Come see!

Prince Wednesday's cousin.

She always has fun ideas.
Let's go see what she's playing.

I'm so excited!

Prince Wednesday used
my favorite color.

- Which one?
- Oh, you know.

Red and blue and purple

and pink and yellow and
orange... Pretty much
all of them!

- It's very...fancy.
(all laughing)

- And now, I must go
to the ball!

(all laughing)

- Teacher Harriet,
will you do my hair now?

- Why, sure!
(chuckling)

I think I can find
a nice hairstyle for you.

- Daniel, come sit here!

I'll do your hair.
- Ok.

- I have to wash your
hair first.

Just pretend.

- Swish, swish, swish...
- It tickles!

- Ok, now we rinse off
the shampoo.

Swoo-oosh!

All done!
- Now what?

- Now...the fun part!

I know just what I want to do!
- What?

- Messy! ...No, wait.

Oh, no, too hard...
Maybe curly!

Or, hmm... How about spiky?
