Masked Veggies! Masked Veggies! Rah! Rah! Rah!

What are you doing, Purple Panda?

Oh! I'm getting ready for Masked Veggies!

It's Gameshow Gator's newest gameshow!

Oh! Oh! I love Gameshow Gator's gameshows!

How do you play?

Well, Gator puts vegetables in little costumes

and the player has to guess which vegetable

is under the costume!

Hee-hawsome!

I know!

And you'll never guess where Masked Veggies

is going to be played today!

Where?

Here!

[applause]

What's happening?

You'll see!

GAMESHOW GATOR: It's time for... Masked Veggies!

Whoa!

And here's the host of Masked Veggies,

Gameshow Gator!

Thank you!

Thank you, very much!

Gameshow Gator! Gameshow Gator! Rah! Rah! Rah!

Hello one and all!

Now let's see who today's lucky player is!

Today's contestant is...

Purple Panda!

Hey-o!

Wow, that Purple Panda sure is one lucky guy!

Uh, you're Purple Panda, Purple Panda!

Uh, oh yeah!

That is me!

And you are today's lucky contestant!

I am?

Yes, you are!

[sighs]

I think we're gonna need a timeout, Gameshow Gator!

Time out!

What's wrong, Panda pal?

I feel afraid, Donkey!

Afraid? What are you afraid of?

Oh, I'm afraid I won't know the answers?

I'm afraid that I'll say something silly?

Uh, I'm afraid that I'll put on a Santa beard

and start singing Jingle Bells.

Why would you put on a Santa beard

and start singing Jingle Bells?

Sometimes I do really silly things when I'm afraid.

Well, you're really good at games, aren't you?

I guess so.

And you know lots about veggies.

Oh, yeah.

Vegetables are a passion of mine.

Well, then I'm sure you're gonna do great!

And guess what.

I, Donkey Hodie, am going to cheer you on!

Okie dokie, Donkey, I'll give it a try!

I will play Masked Veggies!

Hooray! Ha ha!

Okay!

Now it's time to play Masked Vegies!

Please welcome today's contestant, Purple Panda!

[stammering]

I think that means "hi"!

So, tell me, do you know how to play

Masked Veggies?

[stammering]

I think that means yes.

Yes, Gameshow Gator, Panda knows how to play,

he's a big fan.

Well I'm glad to hear that, because it's time to play!

Okay!

Are you ready for the first Masked Veggie?

Zinkleblorp!

Uhhh I think he's ready,

he just has a little stage fright!

Farfennoogen!

Okay! Here we go!

Here's Masked Veggie number one!

Howdy Partner!

What Masked Veggie am I?

Hibbidy-bibbidy-bibbidy.

I don't think Hibbidy-bibbidy-bibbidy

is a vegetable.

Excuse me, excuse me, Mr. Gameshow Gator.

Can Panda have another time out.

Giddyap! I say we give it to him!

What's wrong, Panda?

Donkey?

Ahh, Donkey!

I feel scared that I'll make a mistake,

or mess up,

or wear a Santa Beard and sing Jingle Bells!

What do I do?

How can I not feel scared?

Hmm... Hmm...

Oh!

It's happening! Help, quickly!

Think, Donkey Hodie, think!

What can you do when you feel scared?

Hmm!

♪ Oh! Jingle Bells! Jingle Bells! ♪

Oh hurry...

♪ Jingle all the way!

Ah! I got it!

What is it? What do I do?

Sometimes I get scared during my soccer games,

I worry that I'll kick the ball into the wrong goal.

It makes me so scared that I don't even want to play.

Well, what do you do when you feel scared?

I always look to find Grampy

cheering in the crowd.

Seeing someone that I love cheer for me

reminds me that I'm not alone

and that makes me feel less scared.

Oh, great! I'll just look for Grampy!

Wait a minute! I can't do that! Grampy's not here.

But I am!

Look for me whenever you feel afraid

and you'll see me cheering you on.

Oh okay! I'll give it a try!

Ha ha!

Okay! Time in!

Let's play!

Yee-haw! What veggie am I?

[breathes deeply]

Yeah! Come on, Panda!

Okay. Umm... You are green.

And... Uh...

You sorta have like a flowery crown on top.

Yes indeedy do!

Ummm... I think... Uh... I think...

You can do it, Panda!

Okay.

You are a broccoli!

Yippe-kai-yay! I am broccoli!

Panda! Panda! Rah-rah-rah!

I did it, Donkey!

Great job, purple pal!

Hey! What's all the excitement?

Oh, Bob Dog!

Purple Panda's on a gameshow!

And I'm cheering for him.

Bow wow! I'll cheer for him too!

Yay, Panda!

And now it's time for round two!

[imitates elephant trumpeting]

What veggie am I?

I'm all ears.

[imitates elephant trumpeting]

This one's a little bit harder.

Um... Oh...

I'm worried that I'm gonna do something silly!

Wait, Panda, wait!

I just have to look for Donkey!

Yeah, Panda! You can do it!

Woo!

BOTH: Come on, Panda! Woo!

Oh wow, Bob Dog is cheering for me, too!

That makes me feel so good!

Would you like to guess what veggie I am?

Uhhh, yes I would!

There are lots of little yellow kernels,

so I am going to say...

This masked veggie is corn!

You are correct!

The masked veggie is corn!

Yeah he got it right!

Hey-o!

[both cheering for Panda]

Hey hey, folks! What's with all the cheering?

Panda's on a gameshow...

Yeah, and we're cheering him on!

Really? That's amazing.

You can count me in!

Yay, Panda!

[all cheer]

Duck Duck's cheering for me now, too!

Seeing my friends really helps me feel brave.

I can do this!

Purple Panda! Purple Panda! Rah! Rah! Rah!

Okay, Purple Panda,

are you ready for the final round?

Oh yeah!

With my good friends cheering me on,

I am ready to win this thing!

Okay! Let's do it!

Today's final round will be played blindfolded!

-Blindfolded? -Yes!

For this round of Masked Veggies,

the mask will be on you!

Umm... I uh...

[stammers]

Time out!

What's wrong now, Panda?

I'm scared again!

If I can't see you, and Bob Dog and Duck Duck

cheering me on, I'll be all alone!

But you're not alone, Panda!

What do you mean, Donkey?

I mean...

♪ Even when you can't see me, ♪

♪ Know I'm always here,

♪ Clapping for you, my best pal, ♪

♪ And giving you a cheer.

♪ I'll be cheering oh so loudly, ♪

♪ Even when you can't see me. ♪

Hey-o!

[giggles] I can do this!

Yeah!

Thanks to my friends, and their beautiful song!

Aww!

Bring on the blindfold!

Time in!

Now it's time to find out, who is this Masked Veggie?

Bonjour!

I'm a ballerina!

Plie! Pas de Deux!

Ask me questions and perhaps you will figure out

what veggie I am behind the mask!

Uh... Questions.

Umm... Uhh...

What questions should I ask?

I can't think of any.

Oh, if only I could see my friends cheering me on.

Okay. Come on, Purple Panda!

Picture your friends!

Picture Bob Dog and Duck Duck and Donkey.

[all cheer]

-It's working! -Any questions?

Yes. Are you crunchy?

Yes I am!

Do you grow under the ground?

You bet your tutu I do!

Uh. What color are you?

I'm as orange as orange can be!

I know what veggie you are!

You're a carrot!

Purple Panda, is correct!

[all cheer]

Purple Panda!

You are the new champion of Masked Veggies!

Oh wow! I did it!

Thank you, friends!

Your cheering really helped me not feel scared!

And here's your prize!

An official Masked Veggies mixed salad!

Wow! Thank you, Gameshow Gator!

Oh, may I have some extra forks

so I can share the prize with my buddies?

You sure can!

And we'll see you next time on Masked Veggies!

Yeah!

Yeah, Panda!

Oh! Come on in everybody!

You did it! I'm so proud of you!

Oh, thank you!

BOTH: Time for spin-a-rooni tag!

Whoa!

[humming]

Hey, there!

Hi!

How's my favorite granddaughter

and my favorite purple pal!

BOTH: Whoa! Dizzy! Whoa!

I can see that!

[Donkey laughs]

DONKEY: Sorry, Grampy!

We were just playing a little spin-a-rooni tag!

Oh! Do you want to play with us?

Oh! I do love your games,

but I came to ask you two for a favor.

Oh, sure, how can we help?

I have a friend visiting today

from the Neighborhood of Make-Believe...

BOTH: Ooh!

It's King Friday.

[both gasp]

But I have an errand to run,

would you entertain him until I get back?

Yeah, we, would be...

Hee-honored.

Fantastic!

I gotta go get my Where's My Crown board game.

It's fit for a king!

I won't be gone long. Thank you!

The King is coming!

The King is coming to Someplace Else.

I can't wait!

King Friday, I presume?

Entertaining the king is a big responsibility.

Purple Panda, we are going to be...

Royal hosts.

Ah! Royal hosts!

I, Lady Hodie, Royal Host of the Neighborhood.

And I, Sir Panda,

Royal Host of the Neighborhood.

Shall prepare for King Friday

to have a time most excellent.

Yes!

To prepa- Uh... Lady Hodie,

how do we prepare for the king?

Hmm...

I think we need to find something fun

to do with King Friday.

What do kings like to do?

Um..

BOTH: Oh! We can play spin-a-rooni tag!

Wooo! Yeah!

Wait, wait, wait, does spin-a-rooni tag feel kingly?

I'm not sure.

I've never been a king before.

Yeah, me, either.

Well, since he's a king, maybe King Friday

only likes certain kinds of games?

Hmm.

So, we're looking for games for kings... Hmm...

♪ [trumpet fanfare]

King Friday is here!

Uh, what do we do?

We're still wearing our hats.

Not kingly.

[humming]

Greetings, King Friday.

-Mmmm. -Hi!

Oh, and uh, welcome to this, uh, humble abode.

That means "house."

Ah, you're so good at fancy king talk.

Thanks.

Would you care for some hors d'oeuvres?

That means "snacks."

Nice.

I can make you some limeberry juice

and potato fritters.

Hmm, no thank you.

I'm not particularly fond of limeberries or fritters.

Do excuse us a moment... Huddle!

Come on.

Hmm.

Did you know he didn't like limeberries?

No, did you know he didn't like potato fritters?

No.

Maybe we don't know what kings like!

So, what shall we do until Grampy Hodie comes back? Hm?

[both stammer]

Excuse us, again, King Friday.

Huddle!

Do we share our game idea?

You should tell him about spin-a-rooni tag.

It's so much fun.

No, no, no, you should tell him about spin-a-rooni tag!

But what if he doesn't like spin-a-rooni tag?

Ugh, being a royal host is harder than I thought.

Hmm. Wait!

What if we asked him what he wanted to do?

You mean with words?

Donkey Hodie, that just might work!

Come on.

King Friday?

[clears throat]

What would you like to do today?

Oh, whatever you like!

I always have fun here in Someplace Else.

[laughs nervously]

[stammers]

Huddle!

Uh?

Well, that didn't work.

He said he always has fun here.

Well, that's because he and Grampy

always play kingly games.

Oh, yeah.

Wha?

Come on, come on, come on...

-King Friday? -Hmm?

Uh, we'll be right back with all kinds of things to do

that are fit for a king.

Yeah!

Okay...

I think it's going really well.

What if we can't find a game a king would like?

Oh! We can do it!

After all, we are royal hosts of the neighborhood.

Hmm.

Think, Lady Hodie, think.

Sometimes kings sit on thrones.

Hmm.

Oh! Oh!

We could make a hee-hawesomely comfy throne for him!

On it!

Okay, Donkey, how about this?

Is this kingly enough?

Hmm. Almost...

It needs, uh... Pillows!

Good idea!

Looks kingly to me!

Yup!

Right this way, your highness.

Please sit upon this throne.

Oh, yes. Um. Thank you so much!

Uhh. Hmm...

[grunting efforts]

How do you like your throne, King Friday?

Yeah!

KING FRIDAY: What?

I said, "How do you like your throne?"

KING FRIDAY: What?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

We gotcha!

KING FRIDAY: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Well, um, I was uh, tired of sitting anyway!

Uh, what shall we do now?

Uhh...

Maybe we should tell him about spin-a-rooni tag.

We're royal hosts,

so we should have the best ideas and share them!

Ooh, I think I'm too nervous to tell him about our idea--

I'm not sure kings like silly games.

DONKEY: But we have to find something to do!

What do kings like?

Oh! Oh! I know!

A history book!

Kings like history books?

No, no, no.

We can read a history book to see what kings like to do!

Sir Panda, that is an idea most excellent!

Would your highness please excuse us for a royal moment?

Of course.

Mmm hmm... Mmm hmm...

Gah!

Ah! Here's some things that kings do.

Uh, but it doesn't look like fun.

So what do we do?

♪ We could do something silly like jump up and down ♪

♪ Or slip and fall over like a big goofy clown ♪

♪ But I don't think that's fun for a king-- ♪

♪ So I guess we'll do this king thing... ♪

♪ Guess we'll do this king thing... ♪

PANDA: They throw rose petals on the ground

and walk over them?

Okay, let's try!

[yawns]

♪ We could play a new game where we all spin around ♪

♪ Or get across the room without touching the ground ♪

♪ But kings aren't into silly games- ♪

♪ So I guess we'll do this king thing... ♪

♪ Guess we'll do this king thing... ♪

DONKEY: They write their names with quills.

Hmm. Okay.

[sneezes]

♪ We've already tried everything ♪

♪ It's not fun doing these king things. ♪

♪ Fun doing these king things. ♪

Donkey Hodie? Purple Panda?

Yes, King Friday?

Thank you for keeping me company.

And I'm sorry that I haven't been much fun.

What?

Of course you've been fun!

Yeah, yeah, you are the king!

The King of Fun!

You are King Funday.

No, no. I've been nervous all day.

You have? Why?

Well, Grampy Hodie and I always play

Where's My Crown when I visit--

Oh yeah, we know!

But today I had an idea for a new game to play instead.

And... I'm um...worried he won't like it...

But Grampy Hodie is your friend!

And because he's my friend, I want to make sure

that he has a fun time.

And I'm worried that my game is um, uh--

[whispers] Silly.

Wha? Uh!

That's how we feel!

We have an idea for a game

that we were worried to share with you.

Why are you worried to share your ideas with me?

Well, you're the king!

We thought you'd want to do things that are more...

Uh...

Uh, Kingly.

Mmm hmm!

Oh. You two are known all over Someplace Else

and throughout the Neighborhood of Make-Believe

as having the best ideas for games.

We are?

We are!

Well, in that case...

I, Lady Hodie...

And I, Sir Panda...

Have a very silly game idea for you!

[gasps]

[laughing]

Tag!

Panda, you win!

Hey-o!

What fun!

I decree that this is a game most excellent!

BOTH: Most excellent!

I'm so glad we shared our idea for spin-a-rooni tag!

Hey-o!

Well, you can always share your ideas with me,

especially when they're this silly and fun.

Weee!

And you can share your idea with Grampy Hodie

when he gets back...

Which is right now!

[laughs]

Looks like you're all having fun!

The most fun!

Well, when you're done, I've got Where's My Crown

ready to play!

Uh. Yes. About that... I...

[stammering]

You can do it.

Yes. Thank you.

Um... I... Umm...

Have an idea for a new game.

For us... to play.

A new game?

Ummm...

You got this, King Friday the Thirteenth.

Yes. Yes!

Yes! It is called "Crowny Ball."

Hm. Well, that sounds silly.

I love silly games. Let's do it!

Okay, Grampy, just throw the ball into my crown!

Okie dokie!

It's in the crown!
