[birds chirping]

Hello, everybody.

Hot and cold, wet and
dry, full and empty.

[giggles] I'm just trying
out a few opposites--

you know, words
that go together,

but they have opposite meanings.

Like fast and slow
and happy and sad.

The other day
Captain Feathersword

wanted to know who
had the biggest feet

and who had the smallest feet.

[giggles] Just watch, and
you'll see what I mean.

[cheerful music]

[SINGING] Sam is
here and Jeff is too

Murray's here and so are you

Follow the story and help us too

Sometimes what
happens is up to you

We're here on Captain
Feathersword's dock.

h*-oh, and I'm
Captain Feathersword.

Ahoy there, me hearties.

Well, ahoy there to
you, Captain Feathersword.

It's good to see you here,
Captain, because I've

got a question to ask.

Oh, what's your
question, Anthony?

Which one of us
has the biggest feet?

[drum beat]

The biggest feet?

Why do you want to know who
has the biggest feet, Anthony?

I don't know.

I just wondered.

How do we find out who
has the biggest feet?

Wait a Wiggly minute.

[SINGING] Let's take a
moment to see what's past

Keep following the
story until the last

Help us out, it's easy to do

What happens next is up to you

So what do you think
we should do to find

out who has the biggest feet?

[drum beat]

Oh.

You think we should stand
in line to compare our feet.

That's a great idea.

Hey, guys, let's
all stand in a line.

Then we can look at our
feet and see what we think.

Yes.

In line, everybody.

[fast drum rattles]

Murray has the biggest feet.

[organ chimes]

But who has the smallest feet?

Oh, I think it's Jeff.

I wonder which one
of us is the tallest.

Oh, let's arrange ourselves
in line from the tallest

to the shortest.

OK, let's do it.

[fast drum rattles]

I think I'm taller than you.

Here, Captain.

[chattering]

Just about right
there, I think.

Oh.

So Murray is the tallest
and Jeff is the shortest.

[organ chimes]

I've got a question, too.

Oh.

What's your question, Jeff?

Follow me, Captain.

[boing, boing, boing]

I need to know which
pillow is the softest.

Well, uh, let's see.

[squidge]

[squish, squish]

h*-oh-oh.

This one is the hardest,
and this one is the softest.

Thank you, Captain.

I just wanted to make sure.

Good night, everybody.

[snores]

Look at that.

Jeff's fallen asleep.

Well, we'd better wake him up.

I'll count to three.

And we can all call
out, wake up, Jeff!

Ready, everyone?


ALL: Wake up, Jeff!

Thanks for waking
me up, everyone.

That was a lovely sleep.

You know, that pillow
really is the softest pillow

I've ever had.

ALL: Aw, Jeff.

I'm wondering, who
can sing a high note?

Oh.

I think I can sing a high note.

[SINGING] Ahhhhh

Yes, that's very high.

Can anyone sing a low note?

Oh.

I think I can sing
a low note, Murray.

[SINGING] Haaaaaaa

Yes.

Very low, Captain.

So Sam's note is the highest.

[SINGING] Ahhhhh

And Captain Feathersword's
note is the lowest.

[SINGING] Haaaaaaa

Let's hear some more singing.
