Well, Bobby, another great show.
Tell them about it.
-Ladies and gentlemen,
this is Little Richard!
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
Wop bop-a-loo-mop a lop bam-boo!
Whooooo!
-He will not be in today's show.
[THEME MUSIC]
BROCK [ON TV]: All right,
Squash, say your prayers!
[EVIL LAUGHTER]
-Come on, Captain
Squash, get him!
BROCK [ON TV]: You're headed
for the last salad bar, Squash!
[EVIL LAUGHTER]
-You'll never get
away with it, Broc!
-I already have!
And with the doomsday
machine, I'll
turn earth into a
fly-infested compost heap!
[EVIL LAUGHTER]
-Look, Roger!
They're falling out of orbit!
CAPTAIN SQUASH [ON TV]: Oh, no!
We're falling out of orbit!
-We've seen this one before.
ANNOUNCER [ON TV]: Stay tuned
for the exciting conclusion
of the adventures
of Captain Squash!
Brought to you by Peter Potter--
BOBBY AND TV
ANNOUNCER: the wizard
of handy household gadgets!
-Yay!
He's the guy who invented
"Socks in a Can,"
Uncle Ted's favorite thing
to get as a wedding present.
Yay!
AUDIENCE [ON TV]: Ooh!
Ahh!
PETER POTTER [ON TV]: You say
your husband forgot to tell you
the boss was coming
for dinner, huh?
You say the flower
arrangement you bought
for Junior's bar mitzvah
has seen better days?
I say--
BOBBY AND TV AUDIENCE:
Nooo problem!
With the Peter Potter
perfect processor,
just set the dial to
the garnish setting--
-Here comes the
best part, Webbly!
PETER POTTER [ON TV]: --add your
vegetables and flip the switch.
In just seconds, you'll have a
veritable cornucopia of flowers
for that perfect table setting.
AUDIENCE [ON TV]: Ooh!
-Wow!
I don't know what a terrible
cornucopia is, but I want one!
PETER POTTER [ON TV]:
And that's not all!
What would you say if I told you
that if you act right now, you
not only get the
perfect processor,
but I'll throw in,
absolutely free of charge--
BOBBY AND PETER
POTTER [ON TV]: Peter
Potter's Portable Soda Jerk!
PETER POTTER [ON TV]:
Just add powdered milk,
powdered chocolate,
and powdered limitation
Maraschino cherries
and power up!
BOBBY AND PETER
POTTER [ON TV]: Why,
you'll have a
mountain of sundaes!
-Ruff!
-Wow!
If I had Peter
Potter's gadgets, I
bet I could save Captain Squash!
[ALARM]
-I'll save you, Captain Squash!
Ah!
Ooh!
Eeh!
Uuh!
Ah!
Ugh!
I've only got my shirt.
CAPTAIN SQUASH [ON TV]: Quick
thinking, Co-Pilot Bobby!
[BOING!]
CAPTAIN SQUASH [ON TV]:
Bobby, the Doomsday Ray
has robbed me of my superpowers!
I can't fly!
-Nooo problem!
We'll just use Peter Potter's
incredible "Socks in a Can"!
CAPTAIN SQUASH [ON TV]:
We're too late, Bobby.
Planet earth is doomed.
BOBBY: Nooo problem!
If we act now, we can use Peter
Potter's Portable Soda Jerk.
Why, we'll have a
mountain of sundaes!
CAPTAIN SQUASH [ON
TV]: This is amazing!
-And that's not all!
What would you say if I told
you, look out, Captain Squash!
CAPTAIN SQUASH [ON TV]:
I'd say, Aaaaaaaaah!
BROC [ON TV]: One false move,
and it's showtime Squash!
-But wait.
That's not all.
BROCK [ON TV]: Noooooo!
ANNOUNCER [ON TV]: Well,
Bobby, for saving the world,
I'm going to take you to--
PETER POTTER [ON
TV]: That's right!
Legumeland!
I'll be there in
person this afternoon!
-Legumeland!
Maybe my dad will take me!
I'm almost ready to power up!
Help!
-H--hold up here.
For the-- Bobby,
what's going on here?
[COUGHING]
Bobby, maybe you should spend
some time with your father.
-That means I don't
have to help clean up.
-After we clean up this mess.
-I knew it was too
good to be true.
-Hey, there you are son.
I've got a big surprise
in store for you, today!
-You're going to take
me to Legumeland?
-Well, sure, I--I
guess we could do that.
But you know what we're
going to do first?
Uncle Ted's coming
over and we're
going to let you fix the
light switch in the bathroom!
-That's great, dad.
How come parents think if
they say a boring thing
real loud that it makes it fun?
Maybe helping dad and
Uncle Ted won't be so bad.
-Ah.
Ooh.
-Mm, I don't know.
-Dad, when are we going
to go to Legumeland?
-Oh, uh, w--we'll
go around 3 o'clock.
-Is it 3 o'clock yet?
HOWARD: No, son, n--not yet.
-Real electricians always
wear their pants like this.
-Yeah, yeah, I think
we're going to be
some electrical tape, Howard.
You know, safety first--
that sort of thing.
-Great!
That's a gr-- hey, Ted,
that's a great idea.
Now uh, where did
that darn tape get to?
-What's it look like, dad?
-Well, it's-- it's
black and shiny.
You think you can
find it for me, son?
-Nooo problem, dad!
Because I'm the
one that lost it.
I'm helping dad already!
Ah!
Ooh!
Ugh!
HOWARD: Bobby, what's
taking you so long, son?
-[MUFFLED] Coming, dad!
Ugh!
Aah!
I found it!
-Uh, gr-- great, Bobby.
But what we-- what we
really need is uh--
-Duh--
-Ted?
-Those pliers that
have a needle nose.
Needle nose pliers!
Needle nose pliers.
-That's it!
UNCLE TED: That'll do it.
HOWARD: Needle nose pliers.
UNCLE TED: Yeah, we'll
get this job done.
-I'll get them, dad!
What are they?
-Well, they're uh, they're--
they're kind of like scissors
with a long, pointy
nose on the end.
-Oh, you mean my wormhole maker!
I used them yesterday.
-That's great, Bobby.
Why don't you go find my pliers?
-This is great!
Dad and Uncle Ted
really need me!
I'm going to get
those missing flyers.
Excuse me!
Are you my dad's missing flyers?
-No.
I'm just a guy looking
for the Bermuda Triangle.
-Not me.
My name's Amelia.
I'm not missing.
I'm just sort of lost.
[MUFFLED VOICE]
-Aaaaah!
Ooh!
These are my wormhole makers.
I wonder if dad can use them.
-I don't know, maybe it'll
just uh, fix itself, Howard.
-Is this what you needed, dad?
-Oh!
Oh, I--I-- I knew I
could count on you, son.
Uh--
-So, how are my heroes doing?
-We're doing great, mom!
-Oh uh, you know it,
Sis, a piece of cake.
-Yep, we'll be ready
to go just as soon
as we get the faceplate
off this switch.
Honey, do we have a
Phillips head screwdriver?
-Shouldn't Phillip
have his own head?
-Oh, Howard, I think you
broke the gee golly thing when
you and Ted put in
the garbage disposal.
-Oh yeah, th-- that's right.
Uh--
-I know-- light bulb
maybe Bobby can borrow one
from those nice new
neighbors down the block.
-Think you can handle it, Bobby?
-Oh, it's a big,
important job, Bob-O.
-You can count on me, fellas!
If I don't hurry, never have
time to get to Legumeland.
[HOWLING WIND]
[BARKING]
Mush!
If we don't get back with the
medicine before nightfall,
all is lost!
[GROWLING]
-Get away from us, you-- you--
-Hi, Bobby.
-Huh?
[DOG PANTING]
-I said, hi, Bobby.
-Oh, hi, Petey.
I came to borrow a Phillips
head on a screwdriver.
-I don't know any Phillip.
But let's ask my father.
He knows lots of stuff.
[COUGH]
-Wow!
Just like on the
Peter Potter Show!
[COUGH]
-Ah-choo!
-I wonder what they'd have to
do to make the garage door open.
-Come on, my dad's
in the basement.
Dad, Bobby wants
to borrow a-- um--
-A head!
Ph-- Phillip's head
on a screwdriver.
PETER POTTER : Glad you asked!
But why waste your time
with a screwdriver, when
you can have my
latest invention?
The Peter Potter
Pocket Carpenter!
It wrenches, it
drills, it hammers.
[SINGING] It hammers
in the morning,
it hammers in the evening.
BOBBY AND PETEY [SINGING]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh!
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh!
-Wow!
I've never seen one
of these in real life!
PETER POTTER : And
that's not all!
Act now, and I'll throw in,
absolutely free of charge,
the Peter Potter Sandwich Master
and Perfect Loaf Pocket Bakery!
Just plug it in, and
it'll do the rest.
And if you don't
believe me, just
come and say my
in-person demonstration
this afternoon at Legumeland.
-I-- I-- I can't believe it!
Your dad is Peter Potter?
PETER AND PETEY POTTER: Uh-huh.
-Wow!
UNCLE TED: Oh, now, no, now
[INAUDIBLE] to watch it there,
Howard, but y-y-you
don't want to crack it.
Yeah, once you crack the
cover on the light switch,
you got trouble.
-Ted, I am not going
to crack the cover.
I'm just going to pry
it loose so that I can--
-Hey, dad!
Look what I got from
Petey and his father!
-[BREATHLESS]
That's great, Bobby.
But did you get a screwdriver?
-I can do better than that!
Petey's pop is
Peter Potter, and he
gave us all this
really neat stuff.
And that's not all!
Petey's dad invited us to come
and see him at Leguuuumeland!
Is it time yet?
Can we go?
-Well, I-- I did
say we'd go at 3:00,
but-- Come on, dad, pleeease!
Petey wants to go, too.
Parents can never say no when
you have your friend with you.
-Well, I-- I suppose
it wouldn't hurt.
What do you think, Ted?
-Aw, go on.
I'll stay here and finish
fixing the light switch.
-Well, if you're sure
you can handle it, Ted.
-What, are you kidding?
I'm really good with my hands!
-I see.
-Yay!
Yay!
[INAUDIBLE] in Legumeland!
BOBBY: Are we there yet?
I'm a kid.
I have to ask that.
-Want to play Peter
Potter Pocket Pool, Bobby?
-Pocket Pool's my favorite!
-Me, first!
[RICOCHET]
-Ow!
You boys settle down right now.
Don't make me have
to come back there.
-Making your dad crazy is
the best part of car trips.
HOWARD: Hey, Why don't you guys
find something quiet to do, OK?
We're almost there.
-Hey, Bobby, want to see
my dad story in a box?
PETER POTTER [TOY]: Once upon
a time, a long, long, time
ago, there was a
brave little tailor.
And that's not all!
HOWARD: Well now, [CHUCKLING]
speaking of tailors,
did you know that I
sell pants, Petey?
-Petey's dad knows
all about pants.
He invented Peter
Potter's Power Zipper.
-And there's only
been one accident.
HOWARD: Swell.
-Look!
There's Okra Winfrey!
-That's nice, Bobby.
Now do you remember where
I told you to go in case
we get separated?
-Nooo problem, dad!
Petey recorded it on
his "Parent on a Wrist"!
PETER POTTER [TOY]: Petey,
stop picking your nose.
And that's not all.
I told you to stop pointing!
HOWARD [TOY]: If we
get separated, boys,
we'll meet at the
Information Booth.
-What's the formation booth?
HOWARD [TOY]: It's
the building shaped
like a gigantic garbanzo bean.
-OK, dad.
Banzo beans are the ones that
look like potato bug heads.
-Yeah!
OK, boys, which veggie ride
do you want to go on first?
-I want to meet Petey's dad!
He's my hero.
-Well, whatever you say, Bobby.
B--b-- but some of these rides
are pretty darn exciting!
Yam World sure
sounds interesting.
Hey, how about that
Turbo Tuber Express, huh?
-Hey Petey, there's
your dad's group.
Let's go!
-Hey, Roaring Rutabaga.
Zowey!
That sure sounds like a doozie!
PETER POTTER:Tired
of wearing the same
old hair day after day?
-There he is!
PETER POTTER: Well, I've got
the solution to your problem
right here-- Peter
Potter's "Do in a Can."
Now watch this amazing
product in action.
AUDIENCE: Oooh!
Aaah!
AUDIENCE MEMBER: I'll take one!
AUDIENCE MEMBER: Give me one!
AUDIENCE MEMBER:
Here, please, here!
-Hey, Petey, you think
I can meet your dad now?
-Sure.
-He'll probably make us help
him demonstrate his next gadget.
-He will?
-Hi there, kiddo!
What's your name?
And how about you, young man?
What's your name?
-Petey, dad.
I'm your son.
And this is my friend, Bob--
-Just what I needed--
two volunteers!
-Hey!
What are you doing, Mr. Potter?
-Glad you asked.
-Oh, nooo!
Johnny has stained his shirt
before the big wedding!
-It's Petey, dad.
-What's that?
And you say you're out of soap?
Well, what do you say?
AUDIENCE: Nooo problem!
-Right!
Because you've got Peter
Potter's Spot Shot!
The miracle stain remover!
It removes greasy, smelly
turkey fat in seconds!
And that's not all.
It leaves your clothes
smelling like mom's meatloaf.
[AUDIENCE CHATTERING]
-I think we'd
better find my dad!
HOWARD: Bobby!
There you are!
What happened to
your shirt, son?
-I was the "before," dad.
-Oh, I--I-- I-- I get it.
Well, we'd better
get going home now.
Your Uncle Ted-- we got
to help him, you know.
-Can I come and
help, too, Bobby?
-Sure.
HOWARD: Oh, what's this, Ted?
-Oh, it's a-- trout-on-a-stick.
You want one?
Is the light working, Uncle Ted?
-Nope, nope, I've
tried everything, ahh,
but uh, no luck, Bob-O. Hey!
The garage door's opening!
Say, these gadgets really work!
-Speaking of work--
-Yeah.
-How are we--
-Maybe we should flip
it over or something.
-I don't know what to do.
-I don't know.
Mm.
-Hey, dad.
Maybe it needs a new bulb!
-Well, uh, I guess
it's worth a try.
T--Ted?
-You know, you got
to try everything.
Uh, sure.
-Can I help?
HOWARD: Sure, Petey.
-I got it, Howard.
There you go.
BOBBY: How many
Uncle Teds does it
take to screw in a light bulb?
Just one, because
that's all we've got.
[GIGGLING]
-Flip the switch!
-It works!
HOWARD: Uh, yes!
-Yay!
-We did it!
-It's a piece of cake.
Oh, I-- I could have told
you that in the first place.
-Boys, we couldn't have
done it without you.
-That was fun!
-Doesn't your dad let
you help him, sometimes?
-Well, he's usually
kind of busy.
But he did let me turn
on the "Carcass-O-Matic"
one Thanksgiving.
-Hey, Bobby.
What happened to
your new hero here?
-Mr. Potter's OK, I guess.
But he's so busy
venting stuff, he
never spends any
time with Petey.
You have time for
me, even if it's
just to put the light bulb in.
You know, when it
comes to being a dad,
it isn't what you have that
counts, it's what you do.
I'm pretty smart.
I get it from my dad.
-Well, that's our show.
I guess it's time to
say goodbye, Bobby.
-Wait!
Before we leave
today, I would like
to ask Little Richard
to sing a song.
-I don't feel like singing!
-OK.
Then I will.
BOBBY [SINGING]: She'll be
coming around the mountain
when she comes!
She'll be coming around the
mountain when she comes!
She'll be coming
around the mountain,
she'll be coming
around the mountain,
she'll be coming around the
mountain when she comes.
She'll be--
-Bye!
