That's right

Good day, everybody.

I'm the postie.

I wonder if there's
something in my bag

for someone at Wiggle House.

There is.

[blows whistle]

Hello, everybody.

I'm just about to look
in the letterbox to see

if there's any mail today.

I heard the postie's whistle,
so there should be some mail.

Hm, a parcel.

I wonder who it's for.

Hey, it's got my name on it.

It says Jeff.

But I wonder who it's from.

Look at that.

They look like doggy
paw prints to me.

What?

Wags?

You think it might
be from Wags the dog?

I suppose it must be.

I wonder what's in it.

It's a rather unusual
shape for a parcel.

You think it might be a ball?

You know, you could be right.

I'll open it and see.

A tennis ball.

Well, I don't play tennis,
but I do throw a ball for Wags

to chase when we go for
a walk along the beach.

He must have thought
we needed a new one.

He's a funny dog, the old Wags.

It's disco dancing time.

Let me teach you a great
dance called the bus stop.

We step to the side,
back, side, together.

Then we go the other way.

Side, back, side, together.

Then we turn around and clap.

And then heel, toe,
bob down, jump up.

And that's the bus stop.

Hey!

Hey!

Come on, everybody.

["ARE YOU READY?

[ballroom music]

Hello, Henry.

Where have you been?

No, I haven't been anywhere.

I'm going.

I've got my bag
packed all ready.

Where are you going?

I'm going to Gawa.

Gawa?

Where's that?

It's a tiny island right
up in the north of Australia.

That's a long way to swim.

Oh, no, Jeff,
I'm not swimming.

I'm going on an aeroplane.

Are there any
people living in Gawa?

Or are you just going to visit
some of your sea friends?

Oh, I'm sure I'll see
some of my sea friends,

but there are lots
of families in Gawa.

And the children of
Gawa want to meet me.

They're going to show me
where they live and some

of their special places.

Maybe they'll have some
octopus dances and octopus

songs.

I wouldn't be surprised.

People have songs and dances
about all sorts of things.

Will you be able
to understand them?

They might not speak English.

They do have
their own language.

It's called Warramiri.

But they speak English too.

So I'm sure we'll be able
to talk to each other.

You might learn
some Warramiri words.

It's always interesting
to learn a new language.

Oh, I'll try.

But now I have to rush.

I don't want to miss my plane.

You won't miss
your plane, Henry.

Sam will take you to the
airport in the big red car.

Have a good time.

See you when you get back.

[upbeat music]

Thanks for driving
me to the airport, Sam.

I'm just in time
to catch my plane.

No worries, Henry.

Bye bye.

Bon voyage, Henry.

Have a good trip!

[upbeat music]

Breebop.

Everyone is here to
welcome me to Gawa.

My friends over here
are going to teach me

their welcome dance.

Let's go.

Breebop.

Hello.

Hello, everyone.

Breebop.

[all clamoring]

[traditional gawa song]

[vocalizing]

[SINGING AND PERCUSSION
CONTINUES]

I'm a very lucky octopus.

ALL: [singing]

Oh, that was wonderful
singing and dancing.

Thank you for showing me.

Hello, everyone.

It's good to see you.

[non-english speech]

Ooh, I think [non-english]
must mean "hello."

I'm Henry the Octopus.

[non-english speech]

I think [non-english]
must be the Warramiri

word for "octopus."

[non-english speech]

We have picnics here.

Oh, it looks like a
wonderful place for a picnic.

Are we having a picnic here?

[non-english speech]

Yes, we'll show
you a tour around.

[happy music]

This is [non-english] rock.

Our people put the rocks
here a long, long time ago.

[non-english] Rock.

[non-english]

Oh, I think [non-english]
must mean "yes."

Am I right?

[non-english]

Come on, Henry, we can
show you our fish dance.

A fish dance?

Oh, I'd like that.

[RHYTHMICALLY BANGING STICKS AND
VOCALIZING]

[NON ENGLISH CHANTING AND
SINGING]

Oh, thank you for showing
me your wonderful fish dance.

It's time for me to go
back to Wiggle Bay now.

[upbeat music]

Goodbye, everybody.
