So, whatcha makin' there,

I'm making

Big pom-pom, little pom-pom,

big pom-pom,
little pom-pom.

How about you?

I'm making a spaghetti
and meatball necklace.

Meatball, bigger meatball,

really big,
oh-so-delicious meatball...

[ gulps ]

- [ monster-case plays music ]
- We've got a monster to watch!

[ music playing ]

[ music ends ]

[ gasps ]
Today we're watching Hugo...

and Tillie...

and Simon.

Whoa, that's a lot
of monsters.

Yup, and they're all
coming here.

[ gasps ]
Are you thinking
what I'm thinking?

Both:
Dance party!

- [ whistles ]
- [ boing ]

[ noisemaker blows ]

[ music playing ]

Dance Headquarters
is officially open
for business.

- Yes!
- [ doorbell rings ]

Both:
They're here!

- Bye, Mom.
- Love you, Grammy!

All:
Esme and Roy!

[ all cheering, laughing ]

We're happy
to see you guys, too!

So who's ready
for a dance party?

- Me, me, me!
- I am!

[ whistles ]

All:
Hurray!

Come on, let's boogie!

- [ music playing ]
- Whoo-hoo!

[ all laughing ]

Yeah!

Yeah! Hurray!

- [ Hugo squeaking ]
- Don't you just love monsters?

[ squeaking ] Yeah!

[ gasps ]

Oh...

[ music continues ]

[ laughing ]

[ sneakers squeaking ]

Hey, Simon,
want to dance with me?

Yes. I would like that
very much.

But I don't know how.

That's OK.
Just let loose
and have fun.

[ music continues ]

[ laughing ]

Nice wave, Simon.

[ laughing ] Thanks!

Go, Simon! Go, Simon!
Go, Simon!

Uh-oh. My arms
are getting wiggly!

Whoa!

[ sighs ]

- Psst! Roy!
- Huh?

- [ needle scratches ]
- [ music stops ]

Simon, you were
doing great out there!

Want to give it
another try?

I'd like to, but my arms
will just get the my way again.

It's not easy keeping track
of six arms.

I have enough trouble
with these two!

Oops. See?

[ laughing ]

Hey, I have an idea.

If your arms start
to get too wiggly,

we can stop the music.

We'll make it a game!

Really? I love games!

Yep, just leave it to me.

OK, little monsters!

Get ready to play
Freeze Dance!

- Freeze Dance!
- Let's play!

- [ Hugo toots horn ]
- Here's how it works.

When I stop the music,
you freeze!

You got this, Simon.

[ takes deep breath ]

OK.

Every monster... dance!

- [ music playing ]
- [ all laughing ]

Yeah! Whoo-hoo!

[ squeaking ]

[ Tillie squeaks, laughs ]

[ laughs ]

Whoa!

[ gasps ] And freeze!

- [ music stops ]
- [ all laughing ]

Whew! [ laughs ]

Now... dance!

[ music resumes ]

Whoo-hoo!

[ laughing ]

[ music continues ]

- Oh...
- Whoa!

Whoa...

Esme! Simon alert!

Whoa!

- And freeze!
- [ music stops ]

Huh?

- Whew.
- [ laughing ]

Now dance!

[ music resumes ]

Go Hugo, go Hugo, go Hugo!

[ music continues ]

Simon: Oh-oh!

Whoa! Whoa! Oof!

[ music stops ]

I'm so sorry, Simon.

Are you OK?

I'm OK, but every time
I try to dance,

my arms just
get in the way!

[ sighs ]

I wish I could dance
like you guys.

Simon can do it!

Yeah! We'll teach you
how to dance like us.

Really?

Of course!

Come on!

- Whoa!
- Look out!

[ groans ]

- [ all gasp ]
- Oh!

[ sniffling ]

I-- I don't want
to dance anymore.

Ever!

No... thank you.

[ crying ]

Uh-oh! Monster-meltdown!

- [ Simon crying ]
- Simon?

Yes? [ sniffles ]

- Can I come inside?
- Uh-huh.

I know you're sad, Simon,
but it'll be OK.

Do you feel any better?

Yes. [ sniffles ]
Yes, I do.

I'll clean up now.

[ sighs ] Oh, Simon.

I hate to see him so sad.

[ Simon sighs ]

I know. It's too bad he doesn't
want to dance anymore.

He had some great moves.

The wave, the point,
and the slide.

Wave, point, and slide.

Hmm.

Wave, point, slide.

Wait a monster-minute.
That's it!

Maybe if we give Simon
a dance pattern to follow,

he can switch moves before
his arms get in the way!

It's working for these two!

- [ laughs ] Come on!
- Come on!

- Simon, wait!
- Simon, we realized

you don't need to
dance like us,

you need to dance
like you!

Like me? What do you mean?

Will you watch us
do one more dance?

Please? Oh, please?
Oh, please?

[ laughing ] OK.

Esme, give me a beat!

- [ music playing ]
- [ laughing ]

Presenting... The Simon!

The Simon?

Yep. First,
you wave...

Then you point...

Then you slide.

Then the pattern
starts all over.

Both:
Wave, point, slide!

Wave, point, slide!

Wave, point,

slide.

Simon,
you're dancing!

- I am?
- Yeah!

You're doing The Simon,
Simon!

All:
Wave, point, slide!

Esme and Roy:
Wave, point...

Slide!

Wave! Point! Slide!

Now that I know
what's coming next,

my arms don't get in the way!

Wave, point, slide.

[ laughing ]

[ gasps ]
Look at Simon!

Ooh! Tillie want to try!

All:
Wave, point, slide!

Wave, point, slide!

- Yes!
- Let's do The Simon!

Wave, point, slide!

[ laughing ]

- Do The Simon!
- Whoo-hoo!

- Go, Simon!
- [ all cheering ]

Roy:
Boogie down! Yes!

Roy:
Another monster-sitting
success.

Who knew that following
a pattern

could help Simon dance?

Wave, point, slide!

Wave, point, slide!

Oh! Do you think
we can make up our own
monster-sitters dance?

Of course we can!

[ whistles ]

[ music playing ]

First you do The Monster Hop...

[ laughing ]
Then you do The Sitter Wiggle...

Wiggle-iggle-iggle-- Oh!

Then you finish
with The Monster Hug!

[ both laughing ]

Esme:
"Block Party."

Oh, this is gonna be
one tasty lunch!

PB&J... check.

Triple meatball
with goo... check.

Whoo! Making that sandwich
was hard work.

I think I'll reward myself...
with the sandwich.

[ laughing ] Roy!

- It's not lunchtime yet.
- Oh.

Besides, I think
we might need to clean up.

Huh. I guess you're right.

You made a big mess!

Roy!

I'll see you at lunch.

[ both laughing ]

- [ music playing ]
- [ both gasp ]

We better clean up fast!

We've got a monster to watch.

- Yes! We're watching Tillie!
- Yay!

- [ horn honks ]
- [ laughs ]

[ laughing ]

- Let's go!
- Whoo whoo!

[ both laughing ]

Here we are.
Tillie's house!

- Come on!
- Let's go!

[ doorbell rings ]

Hi, Esme! Oh, hi, Roy!

- Hi, Mr. Plink!
- Good morning.

[ watch beeping ]

Don't mind me!

I'm just training
for my monster-marathon.

- But Tillie can't wait to--
- Yay!

- --see you.
- [ laughs ]

- Esme!
- Aww!

We're excited to see you too,
Tillie!

- Beep beep!
- [ laughs ]

Come on! Tillie want
to show you something!

Look! Tillie have
a new bulldozer!

- Whoo!
- A bulldozer!

Vroom! Vroom!

Beep beep! Vroom!

Play with Tillie?

Not so fast,
my little Tillie-racer.

Before you play
with your new truck,

you promised to help
clean up your blocks.

This way, guys!

One, and-two,
and-three, and-four!

[ laughing ]

- Wow. Tillie's been busy!
- Ha! Yep!

She needs to put
all her blocks
in this crate

before she can play
with her new truck.

You need to be a big
monster-helper,
right, Tillie?

Right!

OK, Mr. Plink,
we'll make sure

Tillie cleans up
all her blocks.

- Thanks, guys. Oh!
- [ watch beeping ]

Time to start my monster-thon
training run.

Be back in a jiff!
Meep meep!

One, and-two,
and-three, and-four,

and-one, and-two...

- Bye, Mr. Plink!
- See ya later!

Bye, Daddy!

All right, Tillie,

ready to clean up
some blocks?

Tillie ready!

[ laughing ]

Wow, look at her go!

Yup. Those blocks will be
cleaned up in no time!

Tillie:
Beep beep!

Vroom vroom!

Vroom! Vroom!

Beep beep!

Vroom!

Tillie, you need
to help clean up the blocks

before you can
play with your truck.

- Remember?
- Ohh.

Tillie remember.

But picking up blocks
takes so long!

And there's so many!

Aww.

Hmm.
I have an idea!

Cleaning up the blocks
won't take so long

if we make it...

[ whistles ]

...a race!

A race?

Yay! Tillie love racing!

OK, then let's see how fast
you can clean up the blocks.

- Psst! Roy!
- Got it.

Welcome, spectators,
to the race of the century!

The five-block dash!

Whoo-hoo!

Five-block dash!

The first racer
to pick up five blocks

and put them in the crate, wins!

Racers, on your marks,

get set...

...roar!

- [ laughing ]
- Here comes Tillie!

[ all laughing ]

Wait for me!

- Mm! Tillie win! Tillie win!
- Not yet, Tillie.

You have to pick up five blocks
before you win.

[ panting ] Whoo!
That's right, racing fans,

Tillie has four more blocks
to go.

I'm going to get
another block.

Bet you can't beat me, Tillie!

Now I have two blocks!

Just three more to go.

Tillie so fast!

- [ laughs ]
- Ohh.

[ panting ]

[ gasps ]

OK, Esme win.

Tillie play with truck now.

[ panting ]
Guess the race...
didn't work.

Huh. Looks like we'll have to
try something else.

Can something else
be a nap?

[ laughs ]

Beep beep!

Vroom! [ laughs ]

Sorry, Tillie, but you've got
to help clean up your blocks

before you can play
with your bulldozer.

You're a big monster-helper,
right?

Yes, but picking up blocks
not fun.

You know what always makes
cleaning up more fun?

Now that you're feeling calm,

think you can start
picking up your blocks?

[ sighs ] OK.

Roy! Monster-huddle.

What are we gonna do?

Tillie's still not cleaning up.

[ sighs ]

I wish we could make
cleaning up blocks

as much fun as playing
with that bulldozer.

Wait a monster-minute.

That's it!

We can make our own bulldozer

and pretend to be
construction workers!

Then Tillie can play
while she cleans up her blocks.

Wow! I knew you were good,
but that's good.

If we're gonna be
construction workers,
we'll need these.

[ laughs ]

Ahem. Excuse me, ma'am,

we have to clean up
our construction site,

and we need someone
to drive a bulldozer.

Do you know any
little monsters
who could help us?

[ gasps ]
Tillie can drive bulldozer!

Tillie help!

Then get ready,
construction workers.

It's playtime.

[ music playing ]

[ music continues ]

[ gasps ] Whoo-hoo!

[ whistle blows ]

[ laughing ]

Yay, Tillie!

You cleaned up
all the blocks!

You're great
monster-helper!

Thanks.

I told you,
I can't resist a group hug.

Don't you just love monsters?

[ laughs ]

So, Tillie,

now that you've cleaned up
all your blocks,

want to play with
your new truck?

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Come on, Esme!
Come on, Roy!

Let's play!

Vroom! Vroom!

Over here, Tillie!

Vroom! Vroom!

Vroom! Vroom! Here I come!

Another monster-sitting job
well done, huh, Esme?

You said it, Roy!

Tillie did a great job
cleaning up.

Playing construction worker
really got those blocks
picked up in a hurry.

Yeah, and it made me hungry.

Finally, lunch!

Mmm! So good! Want half?

Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah.
