[Siren wailing]

Just a few more, Corduroy.

And all our chores will be

finished.

What's a chore?

Whee!

Work.

But is this work?

Kind of.

But it doesn't have to be.

[Giggling]

Get on.

This must be a trampoline.

I've always wanted to jump on a

trampoline.

[Both laughing]

Lisa, something's falling from

the sky.

Huh?

It's snowing.

Wow, come on, Corduroy.

We can get a better look on the

fire escape.

Where's the fire?

No, fire, Mom, snow!

[Car horn honking]

Winter is here.

Winter.

Winter is the coldest season

of the year.

It comes after autumn and before

spring.

Are you cold?

Uh-uh.

We'll have to find some

mittens and boots for you,

Corduroy.

And a coat, too.

I think some of my old stuff

will fit you.

Watch this.

Oh, snow is cold.

All snowflakes are unique.

They never look exactly alike.

They're beautiful.

Too bad snow just tastes like

water.

Wouldn't it be great if...

instead of snow falling from the

sky we had ice cream cones?

There would be hundreds of

different flavours.

Chocolate chip, bubble gum,

toffee cream, raspberry ripple.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Know what, Corduroy?

All this snow is giving me a

craving for...

Ice cream?

Corduroy would like some,

too, please.

Wouldn't you, Corduroy?

CORDUROY, THINKING: Yes,

please.

Ice cream in winter?

That's a first.

Well, you might as well check

the freezer.

Hmm, let's see.

Ice cubes, ugh, frozen peas and

corn, pizza dough, leftover

stew, oh, no!

Mom, there's no ice cream in the

freezer.

Could we go to the store and buy

some?

I'm busy right now.

There's all this ironing to do.

But I can go get it.

The sweet shop is just down the

street.

And I'll only get cones.

It'll be our afternoon snack.

Oh, I forgot to go to the

bank today.

How about using your allowance?

I... uh... I spent all my

allowance, Mom.

Already?

But I gave you that money

yesterday.

Well, um...

I...

[Giggling]

I take it your allowance went

to buying that fancy hair clip.

Lisa, really.

It's winter.

A cup of hot cocoa makes more

sense.

But there's always time for

ice cream.

Please, Mom?

Well, since you spent all

your allowance already...

Yes?

I guess you'll have to just

use a little initiative.

Huh?

Lisa, if you want ice cream,

you'll have to figure out a way

to earn the money to pay for it

yourself.

How am I going to earn enough

money to buy ice cream?

I'm too young to babysit.

[Bell ringing]

And I don't have a bike, so I

can't make deliveries.

[Giggling]

Look, Lisa, I made a

snowball.

Whoa!

Ooh!

[Giggling]

Here, I'll help you up.

Oh, snow is cold.

But it's soft, too.

Hey, Corduroy, you're making

snow angels.

See?

Snow angels!

Whoa, the snow is fun to play

in, but it's slippery to walk

on.

That's it!

I can earn money by shovelling

snow.

I'm sure we can ask our

neighbours if they'd like their

sidewalks and steps cleaned off.

Hi, Pandro.

Hey, Lisa, hi, Corduroy.

May we borrow a shovel?

Sure, I guess.

What do you need a shovel for?

Shovelling snow.

Corduroy and I are going to earn

money for ice cream.

That's a good idea.

Ice cream isn't free, but snow

cones are.

Get it?

Snow cones?

[Giggling]

Shovel, shovel.

Ah, here.

Perfect size for you, too.

Thanks.

Say, how about I be your

first customer?

It can be pretty icy out on the

front steps.

And I wouldn't want any of the

tenants to fall, deal?

Deal.

Hey!

Huh?

[Giggling]

[Siren wailing in the distance]



[Both giggling]

[Grunting]



[Bell ringing]

[Sighing]

All done.

Excellent.

[Bell ringing]

I love winter, but I've never

liked shovellin' snow.

Thanks.

Here you are.

Thank you.

You know what?

I think I've earned enough money

to buy an ice cream cone for me

and my teddy bear Corduroy.

You've come to the right

place.

We've got lots of flavours.

Chocolate marshmallows,

strawberry cheesecake, French

vanilla, caramel crunch,

pistachio.

]] That must be the North Pole.

I've always wanted to visit the

North Pole.

The North Pole must be very

cold or else all this ice cream

would melt.

Ice cream cones, ice cream

sundaes, ice cream floats.

Mmm.

This must be a dream.

I'm dreaming of ice cream.

How does that look?

Delicious.

Hold onto this, please, while

I scoop up your other cone.

Oh, Corduroy, I can taste the

ice cream already.

]] We worked really hard for

this.

We sure did.

You know what?

I believe you actually have

enough money for two triple

scoop ice cream cones.

Really?

We can have two cones with three

scoops of ice cream or...

Ta-da!

We have three cones with two

scoops of ice cream.

All this ice cream?

How did you get the money?

I used initiative just like

you asked.

Corduroy and I cleared the snow

off people's steps and

sidewalks.

We did our apartment building,

Moppy's mom's restaurant, the

grocery store across the street,

the--

I'm proud of you, Lisa.

You worked so hard.

You must be very tired.

Nope, I'm not tired.

I'm hungry for ice cream.

We got this cone as a surprise

for you, Mom.

Unless...

Unless what?

Unless you still think it's

weird to want to eat ice cream

in the winter.

[Giggling]

I see now that ice cream is

for any time.

Thanks for treating your old

Mom.

]] The ice cream is melting,

Lisa.

Well, we worked hard earning

the money to pay for these ice

cream cones.

Now we'd better get working on

eating them.

[All giggling]

Mmm.

]] Mmm.

What more could a bear ask for?



[Neighing]

Ooh, it's very blue.

Don't you want to use other

paint colours?

I like blue.

[Sighing]

Uh, Corduroy, rain does not

come from the sun, rain comes

from the clouds.

It's not rain.

The sun's sad.

LISA: Is everything okay?

Stay and paint with me, Lisa?

I have school today.

Don't you want to play with

me?

Don't you like hearing about

what I've learned in school?

I guess.

And Buckaroo and Rosetta are

here.

So you won't feel lonely.

I guess.

But I still really miss you when

you're gone.

Don't be blue.

It's a perfect day.

CORDUROY: Who's that?

LISA: Oh, that's the mailman.

He delivers cards and letters

all over the city.

CORDUROY: He looks happy.

Maybe it's his birthday and

someone sent him a card.

Ooh, la, la.

Perhaps someone sent him a

valentine.

Or maybe someone's just

writing him to say hey.

Do only special people get

mail?

Everyone can get mail.

But sometimes, getting mail can

make you feel, you know,

special.

[Sighing]

I'll be right back.

Right under the kitchen sink.

It's not leaking badly.

I put a bowl there to catch the

drips, but if you could check it

out.

Yes, I'm working from home

today.

This morning will be great.

Thanks, Pandro, bye.

"To Corduroy."

This should help cheer him up.

[Buzzing]

That'll be Moppy and his dad

waiting for you in the lobby.

What's that?

Just something so Corduroy

doesn't feel so lonely when I'm

not here.

Good idea.

But you'd better get a move on.

You'll be late for school.

Are you going now?

Uh-huh, but I'll be back from

school before you know it.

Mwah!

Have a great day.

Bye, Lisa.

[Sniffling]

Rosetta and I are here.

We'll play with ya.

Oui, bien sûr, but of course.

We can listen to some music.

There's lots of storybooks,

Corduroy.

Okay, then, how about hide and

seek?

Hide and seek is a game I am

very good at.

Je suis formidable.

Okay, I'll be it, so you

start hiding.

Hey, what's this?

Corduroy, it's for you.

For me?

[Whispering]: I think it's

from Lisa.

Ah.

What is it you are waiting for?

Open it.

Oh, allow me to try.

What is it?

This must be a special

delivery from Lisa.

I've always wanted a special

delivery.

Know what?

I'm going to make a card for

Lisa, so she can have a special

delivery, too.

Et voilà.

[Neighing]

Where should we put it?

Where does the mailman put

the mail?

Well, uh, there's a whole

bunch of mail boxes downstairs.

Magnifique!

I've not gone on a roundabout

for many a day.

♪ Allons-y, let's go ♪



Shhh!

[Floor creaking]



Uh-oh.

Oh, no, what are we gonna do?

[Knocking]

[All gasping]

Don't move.

Lisa knows better than to

leave her toys in the hallway.

[Door creaking]

Hi, Pandro.

PANDRO: How's it going?

LISA'S MOM: Fine, thanks,

come on in.

PANDRO: Hmm, now let's see

what we have here.



We want to go down.

Then push the down button.

[Door opening]

Vite, vite, quickly, if you

please.

Oh, me, oh, my.

Oh, dear!

Uh, I can't, uh, reach!

Oh, please, try something

else, ah!

Are you okay?

But of course... not!

Hey, try this.

[Buzzing]

[Buzzing]

Going down.

I must be a mailman.

I've always wanted to be a

mailman.



Everyone looks happy.

It means someone is thinking

about you.

I can't wait to give Lisa her

special delivery.

I can't rock that high.

I can't jump that high.

Alors, let's see what I can

see.

Corduroy, Buckaroo, can you push

the vacuum cleaner closer to

the wall, s'il vous plaît,

please?

Oh, this must be a ladder.

Exactement.

We will make this vacuum cleaner

a ladder.

You be careful, you two.

You'd better wind me up.

[Clicking]

Buckaroo, push, please!

Okay.

Stop.

Can you see Lisa's mailbox?

Oui, yes.

[Vacuum whirring]

[All screaming]

Whoa!

Hey, whoa!

Turn it off!

Hurry, somebody's coming.

Hide!

I thought I heard the vacuum

cleaner.

Oh, no, not again.

I have never felt so small

until now.

How are we going to go up?

[Gasping]

Uh-oh.

[Buzzing]

[Gasping]

How very strange.

[Knocking]

Hi, Mrs. Chao.

Good morning.

I think Lisa forgot her toys.

They were in the elevator.

But...

Last I looked they were right

there.

It's not as if they can walk out

on their own.

Thanks, Mrs. Chao.

You're welcome.

Now you stay put, all right,

Corduroy?

I don't want Lisa thinking her

own mom can't take care of her

toys.

CORDUROY, THINKING: I hope

Lisa likes her surprise.

Hold on a second, Lisa.

I just want to check the mail.

Hurry, please.

I want to see Corduroy.

[Buzzing]

It's your lucky day.

You've got mail.

LISA: Corduroy, I'm home!

I love your picture.

I don't feel so sad anymore.

Your special delivery helped, so

did Buckaroo and Rosetta.
