Hi, out there!
It's me, Steve.
Have you seen Blue, my puppy?
There she is!
Come on in.
[barking...]
Hello.
You must be here for lunch.
Wonderful.
Right this way.
I'm practicing to be a waiter.
'Cause Blue and I are opening a restaurant... just for today.
[barks hello]
It's called Cafe Blue.
[barks "Cafe Blue"]
Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper are the chefs.
We're making lunch!
Hey, will you be a waiter with Blue and me?
Great, because we have to finish getting everything ready
and we have to ask our friends what they want to eat
and we have to bring them their food.
[barks]
So, Blue, is everything ready?
[barks no]
Ooh, that table has no chairs.
[barks]
So how many chairs do you think we need?
Two!
Oh, right.
Two chairs, for one, two place settings.
Thanks.
[barks "one, two"]
Hey, Blue, I think our restaurant
is ready for business.
See, we set the tables.
We, uh, we made our menus.
Our menu shows what we're serving for lunch.
[clears throat]
Our beverage today is an apple juice.
For our main course, we have two choices:
a cheese sandwich neatly cut into triangles...
or spaghetti, topped with a tomato sauce.
Each comes with a side dish
of crispy, crunchy carrot sticks.
And our dessert today is a...
For dessert, we have a...
Hey, Blue...
[barks]
We forgot to add dessert to our menu.
[barks]
Well... what do you think we should make for dessert?
[barking...]
Ooh!
We'll play Blue's Clues
to figure out what we should make for dessert.
What a delicious idea.
♪ We are gonna play Blue's Clues ♪
♪ 'cause it's a really great game, yeah. ♪
So remember, Blue's paw print will be on the clues:
Blue's Clues.
Oh, oh, we certainly can't have our customers
dining with a big blue paw print up here.
There, now our restaurant is...
[squeaks]
squeaky clean.
Hey, you know what we need to play Blue's Clues.
Our handy-dandy...
Notebook.
Notebook, right.
Come on.
Here's your notebook, Mr. Waiter.
Oh! Right. Ha.
Thanks, Side Table.
To play Blue's Clues, we got to find a...
Paw print!
Oh, a paw print, right.
And that's our first... Clue!
A clue? A clue!
Then we put it in our... Notebook.
♪ 'Cause they're Blue's Clues
♪ Blue's Clues
♪ We got to find another paw print, that's the second clue ♪
♪ We put it in our notebook, 'cause they're whose clues? ♪
♪ Blue's Clues
♪ We got to find the last paw print, that's the third clue ♪
♪ We put it in our notebook

♪ You know what do-- sit down in our Thinking Chair ♪
♪ And think, think, think
♪ 'Cause when we use our minds, take a step at a time ♪

[barks]
♪ That we want to do.
You know, I can tell I'm really going to need your help today
trying to figure out what dessert we should make.
You will help, right?
Great.
So, uh, did you see which way Blue went?
[barks]
That way.
That way.
Let's go.
♪ We are looking for Blue's Clues ♪
♪ We are looking for Blue's Clues... ♪
Excuse me, waiter.
Is the restaurant open?
We have customers.
Blue...
Customers...
Hello, and welcome to Cafe Blue.
Please, have a seat
and we'll get you some water
while you look at the menu.
[barking...]
Okay, so how many customers do we have?
Let's count and see.
One...
two...
three...
four.
Four.
So we need four cups of water.
[barks]
Oh, and as an appetizer, some pretzels
each one lightly salted and shaped like a knot.
Enjoy.
Water... water... okay...
Uh... ah!
One...
A clue, a clue!
Right, one, two, three, four cups of water.
No, a clue!
Yeah, they're for Shovel and Pail
and Tickety and Periwinkle.
A clue!
Oh... you see a clue?
Ooh.
There's a clue...
and it's on this... cookie.
It looks like an oatmeal cookie.
Hey, you know what we need.
Our handy-dandy...
Notebook.
Notebook, right.
So... a cookie.
Let's draw an oval...
and then some squiggly lines like this.
There... a cookie.
So, we're trying to figure out what to make for dessert
and our first clue is a cookie.
What could we make with a cookie?
Do you know?
Maybe... but, uh, I think we better find two more clues.
Psst, Steve!
Ooh.
We have a problem.
We are out of the ingredients to make spaghetti sauce.
How will we make spaghetti?
Well, maybe no one will order spaghetti
and they'll just order cheese sandwiches instead.
I hope so.
Let us know.
There's no spaghetti sauce.
Wh-heh...
There we are... four cups of water.
Thank you. Thanks. Thanks.
Oh, you're very welcome.
Okay, now it's time to write down
everyone's food order in our order pad.
Will you help?
Great.
[clears throat]
May I take your order, please?
I recommend the cheese sandwich.
I'd like spaghetti, please.
Spaghetti.
Okay.
One spaghetti.
Ha.
Did I mention how tasty the cheese sandwich is?
May I have spaghetti, too?
Sure.
So that's... two orders of... spaghetti.
Ha.
I beg your pardon.
May I please take your order?
We have a lovely cheese sandwich on the menu today.
May I have... spaghetti?
I see.
Me, too.
Okay.
So that's two more orders of... spaghetti.
Thank you.
So... uh, how many orders of spaghetti is that altogether?
Let's count and see.
One, two, three, four.
Four orders of... spaghetti.
O... kay.
Hello, chefs.
I have the lunch order.
Great! What is it?
Well, it's, uh, it's, uh, four orders...
of spaghetti.
BOTH: Spaghetti?!
I know, I know, but everyone kept saying
spaghetti, spaghetti, spaghetti
and I didn't know what to do.
But we are out of the ingredients for spaghetti sauce.
[Blue barking]
Blue?
[barking "Blue Skidoo" tune]
Hey, Blue just skidooed... in... into the grocery store.
Great idea!
Come on, Steve.
We can get ingredients for the spaghetti sauce.
I'll start cooking the spaghetti.
♪ Blue skidoo, we can, too. ♪
[Blue barking]
Attention, shoppers!
The first ingredient we need is green peppers!
That way!
To the peppers!
To the peppers!
I think we better get the carton with more peppers.
Okay.
Okay, so which carton
looks like it has more peppers?
That one!
Right, that one does look like it has more peppers.
Let's see.
Uh, this one has...
one, two, three, four peppers
and this one has...
one, two peppers.
So, right, this one does have more.
Great work, shoppers!
Next ingredient we need is canned tomatoes.
Onward, to the tomatoes!
To the tomatoes!
We need the can that holds the most tomatoes.
The most.
So, which can do you think holds the most tomatoes?
That one!
Oh, yeah, this one.
Because it's pretty tall and really wide.
It must hold the most.
It's perfect.
Okay, the last ingredient we need is mushrooms.
To the mushrooms!
To the mushrooms!
Mushrooms.
We need the carton with smallest number of mushrooms.
The carton with the least.
The least. Okay.
So, which carton looks like
it has the smallest number of mushrooms?
That one.
This one.
You think?
Well, let's count and see.
Okay. This one has...
one, two, three, four.
This one has...
one, two, three, four, five.
And this one has...
one, two, three
four, five, six.
So...
this one has the least.
That's just right!
We have all the ingredients that we need!
To the cash register!
To the cash register!
A clue!
Yes, yes, without further ado.
To the cash register!
No, a clue.
Oh... oh, you see a clue.
Where?
Right there!
There is a clue, right there
on that... scoop of ice cream.
Wait a minute.
Hey, Mr. Salt, we found a clue.
Wonderful!
I'll meet you at home.
Okay.
You know what we need?
Our handy-dandy...
Notebook!
Notebook, right.
So... a scoop of ice cream.
Let's start with a round shape like this
with a curvy line for the bottom of the scoop.
There... ice cream.
So, what was our first clue?
A cookie.
A cookie, right.
And now our second clue is a scoop of ice cream.
So, what dessert could we make
that has a cookie and a scoop of ice cream?
Maybe, but I think we better find our last clue.
Come on.

ALL: Hi, Steve!
We're helping a chef make pancakes.
We need three cups of flour.
GIRL: One... two...
three cups of flour.
We need one cup of milk, Valerie.
One cup of milk.
Two eggs.
One tablespoon of oil.
VALERIE: Now I'm mixing it.
CHEF: That looks great.
We're ready to make the pancakes.
KIDS: Bye, Steve!
Bye.
Hey, let's go see how ourchefs are doing.
Whew, lunch is ready!
Okay, we have one, two, three, four plates of spaghetti.
[barks "spaghetti"]
This looks incredible.
Let's serve lunch.
[barking]
Lunch is served.
Four plates of spaghetti with carrot sticks on the side.
Spaghetti!
Thank you. Thanks. Thanks.
MRS. PEPPER: Fresh pepper, hmm?
Ooh. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask.
Bon appétit.
Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper taught me that.
It's French. It means "enjoy your food."
Um, excuse me, waiter?
Oh.
Yes?
May I please have more spaghetti sauce?
I want to have the same amount of sauce as Shovel.
Ah. Yes, well, we'll take care of that right away.
So, Shovel has...
one, two scoops of sauce
and Pail has...
one scoop.
So how many more scoops does Pail need
so that they both have the same amount?
One.
Oh, yeah.
Now Pail has... one, two scoops of sauce.
Just like Shovel.
Thanks.
No problem.
Bon appétit.
PERIWINKLE: Excuse me, waiter?
Yes.
Um, may I please have some more carrot sticks?
I want to have the same number as Tickety.
But of course.
So... Tickety has...
one, two, three, four, five, six carrot sticks.
And Periwinkle has...
one, two, three, four carrot sticks.
So how many more carrot sticks
does Periwinkle need
so that they have the same amount?
Two!
Two.
Oh, yeah.
See, now Periwinkle has
one, two, three, four, five, six carrot sticks.
The same number as Tickety!
Thank you.
Hey, good counting.
Well, bon appétit.
SHOVEL: Excuse me, waiter.
Yes.
May I please have
the same amount of juice as Pail?
Uh, of, of course.
Waiter, I would like the same as Pail, too.
Please.
Oh, okay.
So, Shovel has less juice than Pail...
and Periwinkle has more.
So what could we do
so that they both have the same amount as Pail?
Pour some of that one in there!
That's brilliant.
We could pour some of Periwinkle's juice
into Shovel's cup
and that way, all three would have the same amount.
Thank you.
Thanks!
You're welcome.
Bon appétit.
Excuse me, waiter.
What's for dessert?
They're asking about dessert.
And we don't know what it is yet.
What should we tell them?
Yeah, yeah, we can tell them
that we're still trying to figure it out.
Right.
Actually, uh, we're still trying to figure out
what dessert we're going to serve.
Bon appétit.
We better find our third clue.
A clue, a clue!
Yeah, I know.
What are we going to do?
No, a clue.
Huh?
Oh, oh!
Oh, you see a clue.
Where?
Right there!
Oh, yeah.
There's a clue right there!
And it's... it's a cookie.
It's another oatmeal cookie.
You know what we need.
Our handy-dandy...
Notebook!
Notebook, right.
So, another cookie.
So, a cookie is an oval
and then some squiggly lines, like this.
There... another cookie.
Hey... we have all three clues.
You know what that means.
We're ready to sit in our...
Thinking Chair!
Thinking Chair, right.
TICKETY: Waiter, is dessert ready yet?
Let's go.
Okay, now that we're in our Thinking Chair
let's think.
You will help, right?
Great.
So, we're trying to figure out what dessert we should make
and our clues are...
a cookie...
a scoop of ice cream...
and another cookie.
So, what dessert could we make
with a cookie, a scoop of ice cream and another cookie?
Well, maybe... maybe we could put the scoop of ice cream
on one of the cookies, yeah.
But then what would we do with the other cookie?
Oh... yeah... maybe
maybe we could put the other cookie on top
and then, um, what would have?
An ice cream sandwich.
An ice cream sandwich, yeah!
Because an ice cream sandwich is a dessert
that has two cookies with a scoop of ice cream in between.
