Dance your cares away

Worry's for another

Work your cares away

Dancing's for another

We're Gobo, Mokey,
Wembley, Boober, Red!

A Fraggle!

Hey, look, Ma. I
caught a Fraggle!

Dance your cares away

Worry's for another
day Let the music play

Down at Fraggle Rock

Down at Fraggle Rock
Down at Fraggle Rock

Down at Fraggle Rock.

Oh, no, I forgot the key again.

Sprocket, you go inthrough
the dog door and get it.

I don't wanna walk
across the street

and ask Ned
Shimmelfinneyfor the spare key,

he'd laugh his head off.

Good boy, Sprockie.
I knew you could do it.

Now we can get in,
and Shimmelfinney...

What are you doing, Sprocket?

I know you don't like Shimmelfinney,
but do we have to discuss it now?

Sprocket!

Sprocket, let me in, will
you? Come on, Sprocket.

Shimmelfinney.

I'll get him for this.

I'm going to see Boober
He's going to see me

Hey, won't that be fun?

Boober's my buddy
Boober's my buddy

And Boober's my pal
Won't that be funny?

Oh, boy. Boober and Iare
gonna have some fun today!

Hello, Boober.

Boober?

Boober?

Boober?

Boober, what did
you do that for?

Wembley, I'm happy to tell you thatyour
baloobius is in fine working order.

But you almost
scared me to death!

Impossible. Any Fraggle
with a healthy baloobius

cannot possibly
be scared to death.

Look.

-Let go.-You see,
this is your baloobius.

Yeah, I know.

If it's working properly, it
flares out when you're scared.

I'm running a series
of testson everybody.

-But, Boober... Don't thank me.

Thank you? For scaring me silly?

Well, Wembley, in order to testyour
baloobius, I have to scare you.

-That's how it works.-Well...

You can... You cantake
your baloobius test...

Yep, that's one healthy baloobius.
Yep, that's one healthy baloobius.

But, Wembley, I was
only trying to help.

I'll show that Boober,
scaring me like that.

I'll show him just what it
feels like. I'll scare him.

Now, let's see. How'd he do it?

-Hi.-Hi, Wembley.
How's it going?

Fine. Fine.

That didn't work at all.

Let's see, what if I did
itjust like a little spin, like...

I guess I just don't
havethe knack for this.

If I'm gonna scare Boober,
I'm gonna need help.

-Yes, you did.-No, I didn't.

-You did too.-I did not.

-Did too.-Did not.

Boys, boys.

If you two don't pipe down,
I'm going to lose my temper.

I've read the same
sentence six times.

Well, don't blow up
at me, blow up at him.

He's the one who did it.

-Did not.-Did too.

-Did not.-Did too.

When I blow up, I'll blow
upat both of you. Now, be quiet.

When I blow up, I'll blow
upat both of you. Now, be quiet.

We've got a visitor.

Hello.

You are in the presence
of... the all-knowing...

- the all-seeing...-
...Trash Heap!

Hello, little Fraggle,
what can I do for you?

Madam Heap,

I wanna scare my friend
Boober, because he scared me.

-Well, I don't blame
you.-Yeah, go for it.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Maybe your friendwas
just testing your baloobius.

Well, he was. But still...
Listen to me, little Fraggle.

If you try to scare your
friend back, that is revenge.

And if you seek revenge,
you take the consequences.

-But... The Trash
Heap has spoken.

-She did not.-Did too.

-Did not.-Did too.

I need some peace and quiet.

Goodbye, little Fraggle.
And remember what I said.

It's good advice.

But he scared me first.

-You can't let him
get away with that.-No!

But he was onlytesting
my baloobius.

Well, test his baloobius back.

-Yeah!-Yeah!

But how?

Listen. Listen, if you
wanna scare your friend,

all you gotta do is say, "Boo!"

-That's pretty scary,
isn't it, Philo?-Not scary.

Not as scary as making
snakesfly out of his cupboard.

Now, that's what I
calldownright terrifying.

Yeah, that's terrifying.
Give me a break.

No, no. I tell you, "Boo!"

It's the only way to go.
Simple, but effective.

Sure. "Boo." "Boo."

No. That's nowhere near as horrificas
making pebbles fall on his head,

or scary masks
pop up in his face!

-Yeah. Now, that's scary.-Wow!

Why bother with all that? Your
basic boowill do the trick every time.

Yeah, boo! I like boo.

Putting fake spiders in
the bedis far superior.

Guaranteed to
shock your socks off.

-It is not.-It is too!

-It's not!-It is too!

-Not! Not!-Too! Too!

Boys, boys, what's
going on up here?

-Let's see...-You
two arguing again?

-Who, us?-Nah.

Snakes, pebbles, spiders...

Hello, little Fraggle.
Are you still here?

-Yeah.-Now,
remember what I said.

You seek revenge, you
take the consequences.

Yeah, well...

Thank you, Madam Heap, I
really appreciate the advice.

Especially the part
about saying boo!

-Boo? Oh, yeah. Boo.-Boo! Yeah.

Look, I promise you, it's
the way to go. Trust me.

But you gotta say itat
just the right moment.

But don't forget
the alternatives.

-What do you mean?-Listen.

Sing it for the spiders

Sing it for the snakes

Sing it for the bad things

Making Fraggles
shake Well, listen:

'Cause I know how to dare
theml don't even spare them

I just stand and scare them

Who's afraid of spiders?

-You?-Nah.

Who's afraid of snakes?

Who's afraid of bad things?
Who's afraid of bad things?

Not me.

Making Fraggles shake?

Now, go on and applyyour
newfound knowledge.

Okay, thanks, guys!

Boy, this is gonna be
great. I'm gonna get him now!

Sing it for the goblins

Sing it for the ghouls

Sing it for the ghosties

And make 'em feel
like fools Oh, boy!

'Cause I know how to dare
them I don't even spare them

I just stand and scare them

Who's afraid of spiders?

Who's afraid of snakes?

Who's afraid of bad things

Making Fraggles quake?

Listen to this.

Well, I know how to dare
theml don't even spare them

I just stand and scare them.

And I sneak up behind
'em. And I get ready.

And I let 'em
have it! I go, "Boo!"

Boy, I'm ready now.
I'll get back at Boober.

I'll show him what it's liketo
be shocked out of your socks.

Socks! That's a good idea.

Yeah, let's see.

I'll hide under the laundry,
just like Boober did,

and when he comes in, boo!

I'll let him have it.

So Wembley thinkshe's
gonna scare me.

This could be interesting.

Now all I have to dois
wait for the right moment.

Oh, boy. Here comes
Boober. Here he comes.

Oh, brother.

One, two, three.

Boober!

Wow, Wembley, your
baloobius is in fine working order.

You scared me again.

Well, face it, Wembley,
I'm an expert on fear.

Let me show you a little
devicethat I've just been working on.

You see...

you might find this useful.
You might find this useful.

You wanna know what
happenswhen you step on this?

What?

Well, why don't you
step on itand find out?

You did it again, Boober.

-But, Wembley...-Don't
talk to me, Boober.

But I'm only trying to help.

I'll get you without your help!

The other day,

I discovered that the Silly
Creatureshere in Outer Space

have devised a very clever
wayof testing their own baloobiuses.

When the Silly Creatures are
asleep, suddenly a loud bell rings.

Sorry.

Though ingenious,

this baloobius test was not as
effectiveas one would have hoped.

I decided to administera
proper baloobius test.

And they passed
with flying colors!

Yes.

And their aim isn't bad either.

Stop it!

"Love, your Uncle Travelling Matt."
"Love, your Uncle Travelling Matt."

-Wembley would've
liked that one.-Yeah.

Where is he anyway?

He's probably hiding
somewhere, waiting to scare me.

-Really?-Yeah.

What an interesting
way to interact.

Well, I better go find
himbefore he finds me.

Oh, no, you won't. Because I'm
gonnaget you first, Boober Fraggle.

-Boo. Boo.-Well, I guess
we better be going too.

-Goodbye, Gobo, see you
later.-Oh, boy. Here he comes.

-Oh, no!-What
happened? What is it?

What was that about, Wembley?

-It was a mistake!-Why
did you do that?

-I'm sorry! I'm sorry!-Sorry?
Look at these baloobiuses.

Why, Wembley, these
twoare in fine, fine shape.

I really appreciateyou
helping me with my testing.

Yes. And, Wembley, I would appreciateyour
never doing that again, okay?

-I won't, Mokey, I promise.
Sorry.-Dumb, Wembley. Very dumb.

-I'm sorry.-Hey, Red!
Race you to Gumbo Gulch.

Last one there's a... baloobius.

Oh, rats.

Wembley, Wembley, Wembley.

So you make a little mistake.

-Don't let that get
you down.-It won't.

-Want me to tell you
where you went wrong?-No!

Wembley, why don't you
forgetabout trying to scare me?

I've gotta go get
some more rock soap.

You wanna come with
medown to Rock Soap Cavern?

-No.-Come on.

-Come on, Wembley.
Please? Come on.-Okay.

Good.

Wait a second.

You're going all the way
downto Rock Soap Cavern now?

Well, yes. I have to washall
that laundry you hid under.

On second thought, I think
maybe I might just stay behind

and polish my pebble
collection, or something like that.

-Okay, suit
yourself.-Yeah, okay.

-Bye.-Bye.

Oh, boy. I'm gonna get him
this time. Pebbles, spiders...

Wembley, it's all in the timing.

I'm gonna...

Boober?

Good. He's gone.

I'd better get to work.

Saying boo didn't get him,
but this'll shock his socks off.

Skweet, skwat a lot

Make it scary

Very, very

Quite contrary

A cash-and-carry Dromedary

Skeet down the street

And finally, fake
spiders for his bed.

I'll put 'em right
here next to his pj's.

Oh, boy, Philo and
Gungeare gonna love this.

Wait till I tell 'em.

Marjory.

What is it now?

Now, listen, you two.

Any more disturbances
and I'll blow up!

Well, don't blow up
at me. It was his idea.

-It was not.-Was too.

-Was not!-Was too!

Hey, hey! I did
everything you said!

I tried "boo" first, and
when that didn't work,

I put spiders in his bed and
riggedpebbles that'll fall on his head

and scary masks that'll jump out at him!
And scary masks that'll jump out at him!

And... And get this:

I even put flying
snakes in his cupboard!

You did what?

I even put flying
snakes in his cupboard!

The boys just
playedthat old trick on me.

-Yeah, yeah.-Yeah, I'll
tell you, I nearly blew up.

You did? You did?

Yeah. I nearly blew up,

but I wasn't really,
really, really, really scared,

so I didn't.

The boys were lucky...

this time.

But... But, wait. Wait a second.

You mean, if she'd
been really scared,

-she would have...
blown up?-Yup. Blown up.

No, no, no.

Yes, yes, yes.

Blown up, as in, "kaboom."

-Not a pretty sight.
No.-Oh, no. Not pretty at all.

Oh, no!

It's a long way down
to Rock Soap Cavern.

I could use a nap.

Oh, brother.

Wembley, Wembley, Wembley.

These are the oldest tricks in the book.
These are the oldest tricks in the book.

First, the snakes.

Then the pebbles on the head.

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Then the masks.

And I'll bet you...

I'll bet you he's even
put fake spidersin my bed.

Yep. What did I say?

Well... this place is
too much of a mess.

I can't sleep here.

I'll go have a nice
nap in the pantry.

And then I'll come
backand clean up this mess.

I hope I'm not too late!

Boober!

Boober!

Boober blew up!

Okay, Ned. See
you in a few minutes.

Sprocket, we'll get
Shimmelfinneyfor sure.

When he walks through that door,

first, this scary headwill
pop up from the floor.

Then when he backs up with
a shock, he'll hit a trip wire,

Then when he backs up with
a shock, he'll hit a trip wire,

which causes this
boxing glove to pop out.

And finally, we press a
buttonfrom our hiding place,

which will send these
armadillosscuttling across the floor.

Okay, we're all set. He'll
be here in a few seconds.

Hide in your basket, Sprocket.

Watch the trip wire.

This'll teach Shimmelfinneyto
play tricks with me.

Let me cover
you over. That's it.

Gobo...

Gobo, I just blew up
Boober! What should I do?

Gobo?

Gobo!

-Wembley.-Gobo...

-Can't a Fraggle get a nap
around here?-But, Gobo...

You just scaredthe
radish resin out of me.

-I'm sorry, but... Listen,
my baloobius is fine.

-Now leave me
alone.-But, Gobo...

Oh, yes.

Now, see, Red, if
you really concentrate,

you can sensethe inner life of the flower.
You can sensethe inner life of the flower.

Try. Go ahead, here.

That's good.

Well... I mean... I can, so...

I don't want to scare
'emlike I did Gobo.

Help!

Something terrible...
- What?-Wembley, you did it again!

What did I do?

Wembley, it worked.
You scared us.

-Yeah.-But...

Go tell Boober our
baloobiusesare still in great shape.

That's just the point...
- Oh, and, Wembley...-What?

Don't ever do that again!

I have to...

But... Oh, no!

I tried to sleep, but I can't.

I need my pajamas.

It must have taken
Wembley foreverto set this up.

I'll think of a good
scare for him...

after my nap.

Oh, what am I gonna do?

If they're all mad at me now, wait
till they hear that I blew Boober up.

If only I hadn't tried to get
back at himfor scaring me.

He was only
testing my baloobius.

I'm so sorry, Boober.

I'll clean this place up.

I know you wouldn't have
wantedto leave a messy room.

The spiders. I'll
start with the spiders.

Here they are, right next to...

Hey, where are his pajamas?

They must have blown up with him!
They must have blown up with him!

I better get a broom.

Do you have any idea how manyof
those Fraggles live in this rock?

-We're never gonna
find him.-Well, we got to.

We promised Marjory
we'd apologize.

You would have to go and tell
herwhat we said about blowing up.

-I did not!-Did too!

-Did not.-Did too.

-Did not.-Did too.

Did not.

Hey!

Look at these fabulous masks.

Whoa. Very attractive.

And cute too.

I'm going to put mine on.

I wonder what Fragglelives
in this great place.

-What place? I can't see a
thing.-Yeah. Who turned out the lights?

Who said that?

Did you hear that?

No, no. I don't hear nothing.

Come on, we better keep
lookingfor that little green Fraggle.

-Come on.-Yeah.

Which way is the
door?-I think it's this way.

Which way is the
door?-I think it's this way.

-Ouch!-Here it is.

-Stepping on my
foot.-Come on, let's go.

Do you mind? Get out. Go on.

What happened?

The last thing I remember,

there were two horrible-looking
beasts, and I got so... scared.

I got so scared I
must have blown up!

Oh, no!

Gee. This must bethe
Land of Having Blown Up.

It's amazing. It looks
just like Boober's room.

Nice, refreshing little nap.

And now I'm readyto
clean up this mess.

Wembley?

-Boober?-Wembley!

Boober! Isn't it incredible?

Well, to tell you
the truth, Wembley,

the snakes and the
spidersdidn't really scare me.

I hardly feel as if I've
blown up. Do you?

What? What?

You... You don't know?

Know what?

Boober, I think
you better sit down.

I've got somethingkind
of disturbing to tell you.

Boober...

you and I and your pajamas...

-have blown up.-What?

Boober, it's all my fault.

Don't try to grasp it all at
once. Take your time now.

What was the last thing you
remember? Was it the spiders?

-No...-It must have
been the snakes!

Boober, I'm so sorry. I
was trying to get back at you.

The Trash Heap saidl
would take the consequences,

but I never thought
it would come to this.

-To what?-Boober...

Boober, you and I
have blown up. Kaboom!

There's nothing
we can do about it.

And we're never
gonnasee our friends again!

-Boober!-Wembley!

Wembley, Wembley.
Don't worry. It'll be all right.

Come on, come on. Let go.
Come on, come on. Let go.

Boober, sending these two jokers aroundto
test our baloobiuses is going too far.

Yeah.

Mokey, Red, Gobo. Not you too!

-Hey, there he is.-Yeah.

You!

It's bad enough that
I blew up Boober,

but did you have to go
aroundblowing up the rest of us?

Now, wait a minute. Wait
a minute. Wait a minute.

-No one blew up.-Yeah.

Yeah? Then what
are we doing here?

Answer that!

Wembley, what are
you talking about?

Gobo, listen to reason.

We wouldn't bein the
Land of Having Blown Up

if we hadn't blown
up, now would we?

What would you say to that?

-What's wrong with
him?-Who blew up?

Now, now, wait. Listen. Listen.

-Listen!-What? What? What?

We're sorry.

We was just kidding.

You can't blow up
from being scared.

What?

Nah! Nah, nah, nah.

Particularly if you
have a baloobius.-Yeah.

Particularly if you
have a baloobius.-Yeah.

You...
- You mean, I didn't...-Nope.

And... And we haven't...

Boober!

I'm so glad I didn't blow you
up! I promise never to do it again.

I'm the one who's
sorry, Wembley.

Baloobius testing is fine, but
I just took it one step too far...

-You scared yourself!-Yeah.

I told you I'm an expert.

This is ridiculous, Sprocket.
We've been here half the afternoon.

You know what?

I deserve this.

It's no good getting
back at other people.

Come on, Sprocket.
Let's forget the whole thing.

Sprocket.
