-Hee-haw!

O C-[Humming]

-That's nice and sturdy. Mm-hmm.

Lookin' good, Gregory!

-[Hums]

-Oh, Grampy, I'm here!

-Hey there, my little Donkaroo!

-I am so excited for camping! -Mm-hmm!

-What's the surprise you wanna show me?

-This...!

The purple moon! -Whoa!

-A rare sight in Someplace Else that appears once,

maybe twice, a lifetime.

And when the purple moon is full,

its bright lavender light even attracts mooing moon moths.

-[Gasp] Mooing moon moths are gonna fly by?

-Hundreds of em!

More than your little hooves can count!

-More than two?

[Gasp] This is the most hee-hawesome surprise ever!

Oh, I'm so excited!

-Yeah, I can see that.

-Yeah, sometimes when I get excited, I show it with a hop.

-I don't blame you, Donkey darlin'.

I remember how excited I was to see my first purple moon.

I was just about your age. -Hey, why were you crying?

I thought you said you were excited.

-So excited!

Sometimes when I get that excited my eyes tear up.

-[Gasp] So when you get excited you sometimes cry,

and when I get excited I hop. -Yup!

There's more than one way to show how you feel,

and right now, I feel so lucky

that I get to see the purple moon again with you!

-[Giggles] And don't forget the mooing moon moths.

Mooooooo! Moooooooo!

-SSSHH!

Remember, mooing moon moths don't like loud noises.

So, if we want to see them, we have to be really quiet.

-Oh! Oh, can I invite Purple Panda over?

I just know he wouldn't want to miss this.

-Well, of course!

Hey, you know we're going to need

purple moon-watching snacks!

Be right back...

-Donkey Hodie to Purple Panda!

Do you read me, Panda?

Over. -[Thru walkie talkie] Donkey!

Hiiii! Uh, over.

-Panda, you gotta get to Grampy's fast...

...because tonight there's a purple moon!

-Hey-o! -Wow!

That was fast!

-A purple moon!

Isn't it beautiful?

Hey-o!

-Oh yeah, it sure is, Panda... -Hey-o!

-...Pal.

You sure are saying "HEY-O" more than usual tonight.

-Oh, well I always hey-o at the purple moon.

Back on Planet Purple I would do it every night before bed.

-Every night? -Yeah!

On Planet Purple the moon is always purple.

And I would hey-o at it just to show how much I love it.

-♪ Hmm mmm mmm mmm! -♪ Every night,

-♪ Shoo-bee-doop -♪ Bum bum bum

-♪ In the backyard with my mama, ♪

-♪ Shoo-bee-doop ♪ In the light,

-♪ Shoo-bee-doop

-♪ Ahhhhhhhhhh -♪ Of the purple moon glow,

-♪ We'd shout "HEY-O" -♪ Shoo-bee-doop

-♪ To let it know -♪ Shoo-bee-doop

♪ Bum bum bum

-♪ Just how much we love it so. ♪

♪ Just like a...

-♪ Like a gorgeous grape up in the sky, ♪

♪ A vision of a lavender loveliness. ♪

-♪ Purple moon, -♪ Oooo oooo ooo wop!

-♪ I love you.

-♪ Oooo oooo ooo ooo!

-Wow! -I love you, purple moon.

HEY-O! -SSSHH!

That's really sweet, Panda, but we have to be quiet.

Or we'll miss the moon moths!

-The what? -Yeah!

The mooing moon moths fly by when the purple moon is full!

-Really? -Yeah!

But they don't like loud noises, so we'll have to be quiet

if we want to see um. -Oh!

Okay, then I won't say "hey-o" loudly to the moon.

-[Phew]

♪♪

-HEY-O!

-Panda! -Huh?

Oh sorry, Donkey.

I really want to see the moon moths,

but I really want to hey-o at the moon!

-Hmm.

Well, have you tried to hey-o at the moon in a whisper?

-No, let me try.

[Yelling] Uh, HEY-O!

-Okay. No, no, no, uh, try this way.

[Whispering] Hey... -[Whispering] Hey....

-[Whispering] ...O. -[Whispering] ...O.

-Now put it together and what do you get?

-Uh.

[Yelling] HEY-O!

-Well, it was worth a try.

Don't worry, Panda pal.

I, Donkey Hodie, will help you find a way to hey-o quietly.

Hmmm...

[Shouts, grunts]

-Uh, Donkey?

Uh, Donkey?

Where'd you go?

-[Muffled] I'm in here Panda.

-Oh, there you are.

[Giggles] -[Muffled] Yeah, uh...

can... can you please let me out?

-You want me to get your sauerkraut?

-[Muffled] No, please let me out!

-Oh! [Giggles] Okay!

[Giggles]

-Ah. Thanks, Panda pal.

-Oh, sure thing, Donkey.

I would've helped you sooner, but it was hard to hear you

from inside the tent. -Really?

Hmm. Hey, I have an idea!

If you hey-o from inside the tent,

maybe it won't sound as loud outside the tent.

-Hey yeah,

and if it's not as loud it won't scare the moon moths.

-Let's try it! -Okay!

♪♪

Oooo!

-Okay, Panda, let's try that hey-o!

-Okay. [Clears his throat]

HEY-OOOOOOOOO!

-Well, looks like the tent

couldn't handle one of your hey-o's.

-[Gasps] And look...

...the purple moon is almost full!

-...which means the mooing moon moths are gonna fly by soon!

-Ohhh, we can't miss them, Donkey.

Oh, I just don't know.

What else can we do so I can hey-o quietly?

-Let's put our heads together and think.

-Okay.

-Think, Donkey Hodie, think.

-Think, Purple Panda, think.

♪♪

[Popping, honking]

Uh. Hey, Donkey, uh, don't take this the wrong way,

but it's, uh, kind of hard to think

when you're going "honk honk" like that.

-Oh, that's not me. -Hmm?

-It's coming from those bubbles.

[Popping, honking] -[Gasps]

Oh! Hiiiii!

[Giggles] Wow, do bubbles always "honk" like that?

-Not by themselves. -Huh.

-They're coming from Gregory!

-[Honking]

-Oh, those must've been Gregory's "honks"

we heard in the bubbles.

-Oh yeah!

Gregory loves to blow bubbles.

He really likes it when

I blow sweet little somethings in the bubbles.

-Sweet little somethin's?

-Watch this...

♪♪

[Whispers] ...who's a good boy?

[Pop] -Who's a good boy?

-[Gleefully] Aww! [Giggles]

-Hey! If I hey-o into the bubble,

maybe it will float up

and pop far away so the moon moths can't hear it!

-That might work! -Ok...

[Humming]

♪♪

[Yells] Hey-o!

♪♪

-[Pop]Hey-o! -[Gasps]

-I just don't know what else to try, Donkey.

Oh, and the purple moon will be full any second now...

HEY-O! Ugh.

-And we still haven't found a way for you to hey-o

that won't frighten away the mooing moon moths.

-Oh, I just love the purple moon so much, Donkey.

-And when you really love something you go "hey-o."

-Well, yeah, that's how I show how I feel.

-Hmmm. Wait a minute.

Maybe there's another way to show how you feel.

When I saw the purple moon, I was so excited.

I showed it by hopping up and down.

-Well, naturally. -Ha ha!

But when Grampy first saw the purple moon,

he was so excited that he got all teary.

-Ooh! -There's more than one way

to show how you feel.

-Sooo, I just need to think of another way to show

the purple moon how I feel.

Um, well, I kind of do this arm pump kind of thing when I hey-o.

No hey-o is complete without it.

-Hee-haw, it kind of looks like a dance move.

-Hey, yeah!

Yeah!

What if I do a hey-o dance

for the purple moon to show it my love?

[Humming]

-Hee-hawesome idea, Panda!

You can dance the way you feel.

That way you don't have to shout "hey-o" to show it!

-HEY-OOOO...oh...

I mean... -[Giggles]

Come on, Panda, we have some mooing moon moths to meet!

-Okay!

-Whoa, hey, everybody!

The purple moon is officially full.

-Woah! -Wonderful

-Like a periwinkle pizza pie.

Huh, Panda? Panda?

-[Gasps]

Purple moon.

-Panda?

-[Inhales to yell]

Wait.

I have another way to show my love for the moon.

I don't need to hey-o at it, I can do my hey-o dance.

[Humming]

-[Whispering] Great job, Panda!

-[Whispering] Thank you, Donkey.

Couldn't have done it without you.

[Moths mooing] -[Whispering] Hey! Listen!

-[Gasps] The mooing moon moths are here!

-Mm-hmm. Hundreds of them!

-Ooo, I love my little mooing friends so much.

[Giggles] Moo, moo, moo! [Giggles]

-Looks like the moon moths like your dancing

just as much as they like the purple moon.

-Yeah, look at them fluttering around me.

[Giggles] They're so excited. [Moths mooing]

-Welp, that's 'one' way to show how you feel.

[Giggles] -Purple mooooon.

-Ahh, look at this. Beautiful!

Uh, we have a problem!

Uh-uh, I need your help!

Woah!

Hurry, please!

-Whoa! What's going on here?

What are all these things on the floor?

-Those are purple pegs.

They fell out of the purple panel here.

-So, all these pegs are supposed to be in that panel?

-Yeah.

The panel makes my spaceship work.

And without the pegs, the panel doesn't work...

[Gasps]

My spaceship is broken!

-Broken?!? Oh, no!

-Oh, I can't fly to Planet Purple for songfest...

I can't fly to Planet Purple at all!

-It's okay, Panda!

-All we have to do is put these pegs into that panel!

Easy peasy! [Giggles]

Hmm.

Guess it's not that easy.

-Yeah, of course, it's not easy!

This is a spaceship!

-It is a super-big job, Panda, but never fear, for I,

Donkey Hodie, will help you fix your spaceship.

-Uh, but Donkey,

a book can't fix my spaceship.

-No, but maybe a book can show us how to fix it!

[Pages fluttering] Oh wow!

It's Grampy's songbook picturebook!

-Oh, well, that's nice, but a songbook picturebook

definitely can't help us with this super big job.

-[Giggling] No...

But it may help us figure out what we need to do!

Oh, so instead of thinking of fixing my spaceship

like one big giant job, I should break it down

into a lot of little jobs. -Exactly!

Little jobs are easier, and if we do them one by one,

eventually the big job gets done!

-Hey-o!

Oh, and I can draw a picture of all the jobs we need to do.

-Mm-hmm! -So we won't forget.

Ima go get my art supplies! -Ah.

-Okay!

This plan looks great, Donkey!

-Yep, job one...

the purple pegs are different shades of purple...

-...so to help us get organized, we should pick them up

and sort them by color. -Job two.

Once we have the pegs sorted, we'll have to put them back

in the purple panel in all the right holes.

-Last job.

Turn on the purple panel and see if it works.

Hmm.

One, two, three little jobs.

Okay! I think we can do this!

-I know we can do this!

Let's do that first job!

Pick up those purple pegs and sort em.

-Okay!

-You can put them in these three cups.

-Okay, so, this peg is dark purple.

So, we'll put the dark purple pegs in the dark purple cups.

-This one's light purple.

So the light purple one goes in...

the light purple cup!

-And this one's medium purple.

These go in the medium purple cup.

Done! Check!

Hey-o! [Giggles]

-See? That wasn't so hard!

-I know!

Wow, it feels so good to finish a job and just

-Let's see what's next.

-We have to put the right pegs in the right holes.

-We can't put them just anywhere or else

we'll hear that "ehhh!" sound.

-Yeah, and that is not a good sound.

-Mmm.

Do you remember what the purple panel

looked like with all the pegs in the right place?

Did they make a pattern, or a picture?

-Uh, no. It was just a lot of different

purples all mooshed together!

-Okay, we'll just have to figure this out.

Think, Donkey Hodie, think...

-Hmm.

I wish I had a picture of the purple panel

before it was broken

so I can remember what it looks like.

-Hmm, a picture...

a picture?!

Hee-haw, I've got it!

I took this picture the first time I rode in your spaceship.

And look, you can see the pegs in the panel!

-Hey yeah! There they are, all in the right place!

-We can use the photo to match

how the pegs should go in the panel.

-[Sighs]

That's a lot of purple panel holes.

-Remember the song, Panda.

We'll just take it one peg at a time.

-[Inhales deeply] One peg at a time.

Okay. [Inhales deeply]

Let's do this.

-So, in the first row, the first peg is medium purple.

-First hole, medium purple.

[Both gasp]

I didn't hear a buzz! -Hee-haw...

that must mean the peg is in the right hole!

-Yeah, but we still have a long way to go, though.

-One peg at a time, Panda.

One peg at a time.

-One peg at a time. Right.
