Have a good day in

[magical music]

Vida, can I tell you

the funniest joke ever?

It's so funny!
Like soooo [operatic] funny!
[Vida laughing]
I'd love to hear it, Popcorn!

But let's open

the clinic first.

Oh, right.

[Vida laughing]

Are you ready for my super

duper funny joke now?

[laughs] Yes.

All right, remember,

it's really funny

so prepare to laugh harder

than you have ever

laughed before.

[sighing] I'm prepared.
Ahem!
Why... [giggling]
why... [giggling]

Okay. Why was six

afraid of seven?

Hmm, I don't know.
Why?
Because seven, eight, nine!
[Popcorn laughing]
[comical music]

You know, 'cause eight,

the number,


sounds like ate,

like after you eat.

Get it?
Eight and ate.
Boom!
[Popcorn laughing]
Funny.
[Popcorn laughing]
[bell ringing]
Hi, Prickly!
[whimsical music]
[bell ringing]
Oh! Hi! Hello! Hi!
Good morning, Prickly.

Do you have an appointment

with us today?

No, 'cause I'm okay, but-
[Koa groaning]
That's Koa.
He needs help.

I mean, who doesn't,

am I right?


But he needs your kind of help,

you know, from a vet,


like you, Vida.

Vida the vet, 'cause-

Sloooow down, Prickly,

so I can understand

what's going on.


Take a deep breath,

like this...

[Vida inhaling]
[Prickly inhaling]

Now blow it out slowly as I

count backwards from five.


Five.

[Prickly exhaling]

Four.
Three.

Two.


One.

Ooooh, that's nice.
Good. Now what's wrong?
It's Koa.
He was playing.

Well, we were playing,

then there were quills.

Lots of quills.
My quills.
Well, now Koa's quills.

So now he's all

like, "Roar!"


And I'm all like,

"Oh no!"

And he's like-
Prickly, wait!

Why don't you show

us what's wrong?

Good idea!
Very good.
[whimsical music]
Ah, hi, Koa!

Oh, hi, Vida!

How's vet life?

[laughs] Vet life is great.

See? I told you.

It's bad, right?

Like, really bad.
What's gonna happen to him?

Will he turn into

a porcupine now?


I mean, if he did it

might be kind of cool.


I could use another

prickly friend.


But I like Koa

the way he is.

I once had a-

Prickly, take

another deep breath.

[both inhaling]

Five, four,

three, two, one.

Ahhhh, yes.
Still nice.
Okay, Koa,

I'm gonna use my headlamp

to take a closer look.

[Popcorn grunting]
Hmmm.
Aha!
Mm-hmm.

Well, Koa, it looks like

you've gotten yourself into

quite a prickly predicament.
The prickliest!

Well, I guess

that's what happens


when you play tag

with a porcupine.

[Koa laughing]
Hey, I'm the porcupine.
[Vida laughing]
But it's cool. I'm cool.

Just, you know, a

little uncomfortable.


I understand, and you're

gonna be just fine, Koa.

What about me?
I lost quills!
You'll be fine too, Prickly.
[gasps] Fun fact:
when porcupines lose quills,
they grow new ones.
Really?
Wow!
You know what?

I think I feel some

growing right now.

[Vida laughing]

Okay, let's get

these quills out.


Koa, I need you to

step back a little


and give yourself

a big shake.

[whimsical music]
Whoa!
Great job shaking, Koa!

Looks like all the

quills came out!

Ah, [giggling] Actually...

Okay, now I'm a

lot uncomfortable.

Ow.
[Koa moaning loudly]
That's alright.
Just do one more big shake.
[dramatic music]

Huh, I think I'll have to

remove this one for you.

Let's head to my clinic.
Your clinic?
Like your clinic clinic?
Is it that bad, Doc?
Don't tell me!
I already know it's bad.

I was wondering how

bad and now I know!

Bad! Bad!
Prickly, it's not bad at all.
I just need my tweezers.
Oh. Sorry.
Continue.

Okay Prickly,

you can wait here.

And Koa, I will be right back.
Oh, where are you going?

We're going to the exam

room to remove the quill.

Okay.

Koa, I'll be right here

waiting just for you.

Great.
Seeya soon, buddy.

Make yourself comfortable,

Prickly.

[comical music]
Would you like some water,
a magazine,
or perhaps a tap dance?
[Popcorn humming]

No, thank you.

I'm too nervous.

Oh, okay.

I'll just sit here and

breathe like Vida showed me.

[Prickly inhaling]
[Prickly exhaling]
[Prickly inhaling]
[Prickly exhaling]
I'm okay!
Phew!

Welcome to the

exam room, Koa!


And thank you for

being so calm.


You really helped

Prickly with-

Calm?!
I'm not calm!

I have a quill

stuck in my bum!

I'm sorry, Koa.

You seemed cool

as a cucumber.

No way!

I was just acting

cool for Prickly.

He's very worried.
I know.

And that was

thoughtful of you,


but it's always okay to say

how you're really feeling.

Gotcha.
I really feel like this hurts!
[Koa moaning]
Hang in there, Koa.

I just need to remove the

quill with my tweezers

and that's it.
Tweezers coming up!

This might hurt a

teeny tiny bit,

but it'll be very quick

and when I'm done you'll

feel all better, okay?

[dramatic music]
Ready?
[dramatic music continues]

Koa:

No! Uh-uh!


Uh-uh! No, not gonna happen.

Hey, I have an idea!
What if we just leave it in?
Huh? Huh?

Um, Koa, I don't think

that's a good idea.

a scrap, or a cut ♪

♪ Ya worry help will hurt it
♪ Except, guess what?
♪ It might hurt for a second

♪ But in the end it feels better

I don't know.

♪ It's a bummer having

a quill in your bum

it and that's no fun!

Oh yeah?
Yeah!

when you fix it

♪ So better not to skip it

you fix it, my friend! ♪


Okay, I'm ready and I'm

not afraid anymore.

Ah, take it out.
Awesome!
Hey, Vida! How's Koa?
Oh, hi, Koa!
Did you remove the quill?
Is he okay?
Are you okay?

How's his bum?

How's the quill?

Everything's great, Prickly.

I'm about to remove

the quill now.

Yep, I'm fine, Prickly.
How about you?
Me?
You're worried about me?

Aw, Koa, you're

such a sweet guy.

I'm fine because you're fine.
Vida! Remove that quill please!
[giggling] Will do.

And you keep doing your

breathing exercise.


[Prickly inhaling]

[serene music]

Alright, Koa.

I have some tricks to

help you feel calm

while I take the quill out.

First, let's try an ice pack

so you don't feel it, 'kay?

[whimsical music]
[Popcorn grunting]
Ice pack!
Woooo!
Too cold!
[Koa shivering]
No problem.

Maybe you just need a little

helping hand from a friend.

Popcorn, stand right here.

Koa, hold Popcorn's

hand and look away

while I remove the quill.
Uh huhhh.
Too tight!!
Phew!

Vida:

Hmm. I know!

You need a distraction.
A dis-tract-a-wha?
[laughs] A distraction.

Something to take your

mind off the quill.


But I wonder what

it could be...

Maybe a story or a song or-
[gasping] A joke?
A joke could work!

Ooh, I love jokes,

especially funny jokes,

but actually all jokes.

Then you've come to

the right place!

Allow me.
Why... [laughs]
why... [laughs]
Ahem.
Why was six afraid of seven?
I don't know.
Why?
Because seven eight nine!
[Popcorn laughing]
Oooh, I get it!
Because eight, the number,

sounds like ate,

like after you eat.

[Koa laughing]
That is so funny, Popcorn!
[Koa laughing]
He gets me.
All done, Koa!
You removed it?

Wow! I didn't

even feel a thing.

Thank you, Vida!

And thank you for

distracting me, Popcorn.

Now come on,

let's go tell

Prickly that joke.

[Koa laughing]
Because seven eight nine!
[everyone laughing]
Excuse me!
I have a song to sing.
Would you like to join me?
[upbeat cheery music]

A five, six

seven-eight-nine!

♪ You're all better.
♪ You're all done.

♪ Now go out and

have some fun! ♪

[everyone laughing]
[soft music]
[upbeat cheery music]

Okay, Toby.

Your cast is all done


and it'll help your

leg heal in no time.


You just need to take

it easy and rest.

Pillow, please!
Pillow!
Crutches!
Crutches!
Marker!
Marker!

Can Popcorn and I

sign your cast?

Sure!
[soft music]

Popcorn:

There you go!

Achoo!
Thanks. And wowee,

you two are so great

at working together!


We're all also

great dancers!

See?
[upbeat music]

[giggles] We sure know

how to work together,

don't we Popcorn?
Yep!

And a five, six,

seven, eight!

Thanks, Vida!

You're the best

team in Sweetwood.

Wow, Vida!
[Popcorn sniffling]

We have a very long list

of appointments today.

We better get ma-ah-ah
ACHOO!!
Moving.
Uh oh, Popcorn!
That was a big sneeze.
Are you feeling okay?
Me? I feel great.
Just, ah...
ACHOO!
Popcorn?
What?

Hmm, I think we found

our next patient.

Achoo!

First, I'm gonna listen to your

heartbeat with my stethoscope.

[upbeat music]

Kipp:

[grunting]
No, I

was here first!


Fergie:

No, I was!


Kipp/Fergie:

[in unison]
Vida?


Hmm, I better go

check on this.

I'll be right back.
[Kipp and Fergie grunting]
Kipp? Fergie?
Oh! Hiya, Vida!
We're so glad you're in.
We're not sick.
Nope! Not sick.

And we were, um,

wondering, can-


If we could have one of your

yummy lollipops! Please?

[laughing] I'm happy to help.

But I just need to finish

with Popcorn's check up.

Come on in.
[whimsical music]
Now where was I?
Ah-achoo!
Oh right!

Let's check your temperature

with my thermometer.

Ah-achoo!
Whoa! Gotcha!
Gesundheit, Popcorn.

And double-gesundheit

from me.


Vida:

Just as I thought.


My diagnosis is

you have a cold.


Popcorn, you're going

to need some rest today.


But-but-but who'll help

you with all the patients

that need check-ups?

Ooh! Ooh! I can be

the new Popcorn!

No, me! I'm very helpful.
I'm more helpful.

I know, how about you

both help me today?

[in unison] Woohoo!
Yes!
Achoo!
[in unison] Gesundheit!
For your first task,

could you please take Popcorn

to the recovery room to rest?


And make sure he has

somewhere to burrow


'cause fun fact:

Hamsters love to burrow,


and get all snuggly in a

little tunnel of blankets.

[Vida and Popcorn laughing]
It keeps them extra cozy!
Pfft! Easy peasy!
Right this way, Popcorn!

So Popcorn, where do

you keep the lollipops?

[whimsical music]

How's that?
Good burrow?
Yes. Very cozy.
Achoo!
[Popcorn sighing]
[Kipp and Fergie laughing]
Welcome, Tidbit!

What seems to be

the matter today?


Well, Vida, I'm

feeling a little hot


and could you use one of

your "feel-better" iced teas

to cool down!
I got this one, Vida!

Tidbit, what flavour

iced tea can I get for ya?

Raspberry Ripple?

Kipp:

No way!

Lickity Lemon is way better.
Let me help.
Lickity Lemon?
Raspberry Ripple?

You know, maybe only one

helper should handle the tea.

I'm on it! I'll get the-
Ice? I got it!
[comical music]
Whoa! Uh oh!
Coming through!
What?

[clattering]

[glass shattering]

Oops.
[comical music]
[Kipp and Fergie chuckling]
[comical music]

Kipp, Fergie, we're ready

for our next patient.

Hey.
Hiya, Banjo!

Um, what's he doing

all the way down there?

Because Banjo hurt his foot,

he could use some help

coming upstairs for an x-ray.


Could you please bring him

up the patient elevator?

Say no more. I'm on it!
PULL!
[Kipp grunting]
Whoa!
[Kipp grunting]
I'm on it, too!
[Kipp and Fergie grunting]
Whoa! Whoa!
[Kipp and Fergie grunting]
Whew!
Welcome, Banjo!

Whew! Good thing I was

the better puller.

What?!

I was definitely

the better puller.

Oh yeah?
Watch my technique.
[Kipp grunting]
That's nothing.
Watch me and take notes.
[Fergie grunting]
Ha!
WHOAAAA!

Vida:

Kipp! Fergie?


Can you pass me

my head lamp?

Kipp?
Fergie?

Move over!

I gotta help Vida!


Me too!

You move over!

[in unison] Whoa!
[they groan]
[comical music]
There you go, Banjo.
You're all done now.
Thanks, Vida!
You're the best!

And I think I'm feeling good

enough to take the stairs.

[Kipp and Fergie panting]

Kipp! Fergie!

There you are!


Sorry we weren't there

to help you, Vida.

I'm ready now!
I'm double ready!
Great!

It's really nice that

you're both here to help,

but remember:
helping isn't a contest.
It's all about teamwork.
[upbeat music]
Don't worry, Prickly,

I'm just gonna use

my magnifying glass

to look at your scraped paw.

Looks like you just

need a bandage.


I'll have you fixed up

in a one, two, three!

Kipp, Fergie,

can you get one from

the recovery room?

I'm on it!
You got it, boss!
[upbeat music]
I told Vida, I'm on it!
Not if I'm on it first!
[Kipp grunting]
No, me!
Me!

[grunting]

[comical music]


Fergie:

Whoa!


Vida:

Is everything

okay over there?


Oh, yeah, bandage

coming right up!

[Popcorn yawning]
Wha? Uh oh!

Looks like you two

could use some help.

Help? Me?

But I'm the best

helper in Sweetwood!

No way, I am!

Vida:

Kipp? Fergie?


[sighing]
I guess I'll have

to help Prickly on my own.


Huh. Now that I

think about it


I don't think we've been

very helpful today, have we?

Ugh, no.

Popcorn, we messed

up big time!


We were supposed

to be helpful


but now we're

all wrapped up.

I could see that.

Wanna know my secret

to being Vida's helper?


What?
