Phew. What a warm day.
Some iced tea is just what's called for.
Oh, I see you think more than
iced tea is called for.
But I just fed you.
What happened to all your dog food?
Poof.
Oh, you can't tell me
your dog food just vanished.
I know what happened to it.
You've put on five pounds
in the last few weeks.
Besides, things don't just disappear
in the physical universe.
They change.
Yeah, well, look.
Take this ice cube, for instance.
What is it? Well, of course it's cold.
But it's more than that.
It's water in its solid state.
Now, if we put this ice cube in this dish
and watch it,
what do you think will happen?
[yawns]
Well, you'll fall asleep?
Well, it'll take some time,
but if we keep alert,
we will witness a fascinating event.
Now, watch this ice cube.

Oh, good hus, all mom have I been reading
the books of ancient lore.
Uh-oh.
How [long for the elegance and charm
of those great days gone by
when Lord and Lady Gorgs lived in beauty.
Uh-huh? What did they have
that we don't have?
I'm glad you asked.
Out here in the garden,
couldn't we have a gazebo?
A gazebo? You want a gazebo?
Why shouldn't 1?
My dear, a gazebo's a big, smelly animal
with black and white stripes.
Sure, they run fast, but who needs them?
Methinks thou art confused, good hus.
Let me show you in the Book of Lore.
A gazebo is a summer house
built in the garden.
-Oh, that kind of gazebo.
Uh-huh.
Forsooth, good wife,
I shall build you one.
Oh. A blessing on you, good sir.
[kissing]

Or to be exact,
I shall have Junior build one.
Junior! Come here, lad.
Yes, Dada.
Dada call Junior. Junior go to Dada.

Wake up.
Oh, hi, Pa.
I was walking in my sleep again.

Yeah. Listen, son.
Your mother wants a gazeho.
Oh, sure, mom wants a gazebo.
But I'l be the one who has to feed it
and clean up after it.
Oh, Junior, don't you know anything?
A gazebo's a summer house
built in a garden.
Oh, that kind of gazebo.
Okay, where should I build it?
Hmm...
Oh, how about right there in the clearing
on the other side of the wall?
But, Pa, that's where
we always throw all the junk.
Oh, you can throw junk anywhere.
Just shovel up that old trash heap
and throw it away.
[Junior] Okay.
Marjory. Did you hear?
Oh, no. Did you hear?
I heard. Of course I heard.
The Gorg is going to shovel me away.
Marjory. It's the end.
Nonsense, Gunge.
It's hard to k*ll a trash heap.
But being shoveled up...
Oh, it could change a person.
It could change me forever.
-Oh, no.
-But what can we do?
How can we stop the Gorgs?
Bring me some Fraggles.
Let them be the heroes.
-Bring you some Fraggles?
Fraggles as heroes?
Why not? Take the right Fraggle,
put him in the right place,
he might rise to greatness.

The Trash Heap is about
to be shoveled up and carried away.
What?
-So much for your perfect day.
The Gorgs are going to throw away
our beloved Marjory.
Font of all wisdom.
Only you can save her.
Us? We can't save anybody.
Listen, Marjory said bring a Fraggle,
she didn't say which Fraggle.
We choose you.
But...
You'll be a hero.
Oh, I hate crossing the Gorgs' garden.
[gasps] Run.
[whimpering]
-[panting]
-Oh, we did it. We made it past the Gorgs.
We're too late.
The Trash Heap is gone!
Ahh.
[shrieks]
There. The ice cube is gone,
but, no, Sprocket, it has not disappeared.
It has changed from being water
in its solid state
to water in its liquid state,
one of the primordial
transformations of the universe.
[chuckles]
Oh, but we're not finished.
We can change this ice cube again
from water in its liquid state
into water in its gaseous state.
Everything changes, Sprocket.
One day you're going to be
very interested in this.

I know what I can do.
Yeah? What will you do?
Well, I can ask Gobo what to do.
-Come on.
Check. Huh.
Didn't Marjory say they'd rise
fo the occasion?
I think they're sinking to it.
[snoring]
All ready to build the gazebo,
0 king and strong boss of mine.
[laughs]
-Oh, very good, Junior.
[groans]
-[whimpers]
By the way, what did you do
about that old trash heap?
What did I do with the trash heap?
Oh, don't you worry about that.
I shoveled it all up and then I-
Yoo-hoo, O family of my heart
and love of my life,
lunch is ready.
-Lunch.
-Oh, lunch.
Oh, and, Junior,
bring me my sewing basket, please.
Oh, you got it, O queen and seamstress.
[Boober] Whoa.
Oh.
Thank you, son of a thousand joys.
You're welcome, O queen and fancy talker.
Are we ready now?
All thanks to the spirit
of the great Gorgs
and the generosity of the garden.
Hey, nonny, nonny, nonny.
[slurping]
Ha cha cha.
Now, to this delicious-looking
cold lettuce ragout.
Oh, not for me, good hus.
Insooth I am trying
to lose a little weight.
I shan't be eating lunch today.
Too bad, Ma. This ragout smells delicious.
No, I'l just sit here
and do a little sewing.
Uh-oh.
I'l just finish embroidering
that handkerchief.
[whimpering]
[Pa Gorg] Junior, lad,
I started to ask you,
what did you do with that heap of trash
out where we're building the gazebo?
Oh, you don't have to worry about
that old trash heap ever again, sire sir.
I shoveled it all up and then I--
Has anyone seen a thimble?
Uh, must be in your
sewing basket, duckykins.
Oh. [chuckles]
Now then, Junior, what were you saying?
I was saying you don't have to worry
about the old trash heap.
I shoveled the trash heap up and I put it
over there by the toolshed.
A-ha!
No, no, Junior.
Who wants all that trash in the garden?
Put it in the wheelbarrow
and dump it in the river.
Argh!
What?
Oh, a Fraggle!
Get him. Get him.
Not me, dunderhead. The Fraggle.
Boober. Boober, get up. Get up. Look out!
-[Junior] Aah! I'l get you.
[whimpering]
Junior. Junior, get over here
and help me calm down your mother.
I know where the Trash Heap is, Boober.
Farewell, O Fraggles.
We're going to search the universe
for our beloved Marjory.
But you don't have to.
I know where she is.
[all] Where?
-She's over by the toolshed.
-Come on.
-Yeah!
[Wembley] There she is. See?
I think.
Is she all right?
Oh, Marjory said that you can't k*ll
a trash heap.
Yeah, but she said she could be changed.
Marjory. Marjory darling, are you okay?
See? Its her. [laughing]
Hello, boys. It's me, the Trash Heap.
But you know, I'm feeling a bit strange.
Oh, no. Marjory's turned into a fella.
Oh.
There itis, Sprocket.
Our ice cube transformed first into liquid
and now into gas.
See the steam rising, Sprocket?
Think of how amazing that really is.
Furthermore, I'm taking that steam,
the water in its gaseous state,
and I'm cooling it
by passing it through this tubing
and changing it back into liquid water.
But we needn't stop there. Oh, no.
I can take this water,
put it back into the freezer
and change it back into an ice cube.
What a wonderful idea.
[sighs]
Excuse me, Madam Heap, but are you okay?
It's hard to say.
I told you I might change if I were moved.
Yeah, well, you were certainly right,
Marjory sir.
Why are you all standing around talking?
Didn't you hear?
When the Gorgs finish eating
they're gonna throw
the Trash Heap in the river.
We have to stop those monsters.
Ah, ah, ah. Don't be so hard on the Gorgs.
As far as they're concerned,
I'm just a pile of junk.
Yeah, they've never noticed
Marjory is alive.
But she is. Or he is.
What's more, the Trash Heap
is our wisdom, our comfort, our hope.
-If we lose that...
-Oh.
Yeah, I'm not worried.
You two Fraggles will save me.
I wish you'd stop saying that.
Oh, please, Madam Heap, sir,
I don't have an idea in my head.
Then, Fragglette,
go sit quietly under the tree
at the end of the garden and think of one.
Yes, ma'am-- sir.
Ma'am.
Fragglette?
[Boober] This is madness.
How can we, lowly Fraggles,
think of a way to save the Trash Heap?
It's nearly hopeless.
I keep thinking of this post card
from Traveling Matt.
It's hopeless.
It started something
like “Dear Nephew Gobo..."
I remember that one.
[Matt] You probably won't believe this,
but I discovered these odd, little rooms
that transform people.
[elevator dings]
I watched two of the male creatures
walk info this room.
The doors closed, and a moment later
when they opened again,
they had turned fo ladies.
Ah.
When no one was around,
1 sneaked into the room myself.
I could hardly watt to see what changes
it would make in me.
At first I felt like I was changing.
Then the doors opened, and lo and behold,
the place had changed.
[car honks]
[yelling]
That's it. That's it! [laughs]
What's it?
We don't want the Trash Heap to change.
We want the place where she lives
to change. We have to move her.
Wembley, your brain is floating off
into the sunset.
Where can we move her to? And how?
Oh, where, where, where, where, where?
I've got it! We can move her
to the other side of Fraggle Rock.
The Gorgs never go there. Itll be safe.
Now try the how question.
How, how, how, how, how?
Come quick. The Gorgs are putting Marjory
in a wheelbarrow
s0 they can throw her in the river.
Oh, no.
[yawns]
All done, Daddy.
Now I'l wheel it down
and throw it in the river.
You do that, son... while I take a nap.
Anap?
The afternoon is warm.
Methinks a nap 'twouldst be a fine idea.
Methinks you're on to something, sire.
Aw, Junior,
try not to walk in your sleep this time.
You know how annoying it is.
Yes, Dad.
[snoring]
He walks in his sleep. I think I've got
an idea to save the Trash Heap.
[fit's the idea I think it is,
it's really dumb.
I've got this really dumb idea.
Uh, Junior.
Junior Gorg. Go for a walk.
[incoherent muttering]
Walk?
[Wembley] Yeah, walk and sleep.
Uh, walk.
Yeah. Whoa.
Oh, no, Wembley.
[Wembley] Okay, okay, uh...
Now, Junior Gorg, go, uh, right.
-Right.
Yeah.
[Wembley] No, right.
-Right.
-You know right.
“Wrong.
-Oh, um, well...
Go to the, uh, wheelbarrow.
Wheelbarrow.
Hey, watch out for the table
No, no, no, keep going.
Look out for the table.
Now walk straight...
-Aah, Wembley!
[Wembley] Watch out for the pumpkin.
Look out for the wall. Okay. There...
Now there's the wheelbarrow.
Okay, pick up the wheelbarrow.
There you go. Now turn back. Turn back.
Okay, now walk back
the way you came. Sort of.
No, no. Back, now forward. Forward.
Walk straight ahead. Look out
for the table. Look out for the table.
Look out. Look out for Pa.
[whimpers)
Okay, now tum. Tum.
Careful. Careful. Oh, be careful.
Okay, now straight... No, straight ahead.
Well, turn to your left.
There you go. Now walk. Look out
for the rocks. Look out for the racks.
Okay, now look out for the well.
Turn, turn.
Okay. Now dump the wheelbarrow.
[Junior] Dump the wheelbarrow.
‘Way to go, Wembley.
[Wembley] Okay, now back to your pa.
Oh, be careful.
Okay. Right. Left, I mean right.
I mean left... I mean...
I mean... Hey, wait, wait, hold- Stop!
Okay, now put down the wheelbarrow.
[Junior] Put the wheelbarrow down.
[Wembley] Whew.
Okay, now, uh, sleep.
[Junior] Nighty-night.
[Wembley] Whoa! [grunts]
Come on, Wembley. We gotta run. Come on.
[whimpering]
-Pretty as a picture.
Yeah.
Is she all right?
Oh, the mighty Fraggle heroes...
Are in the presence of...
The all-knowing...
And the recently moved...
[both] Trash Heap.
Nyeh.
It looks good, but there
still could be a problem,
the Trash Heap might still be changed.
We'll soon see.
She looks the same.
Ialalalalalala?
She sounds the same.
[in German accent]
Yeah by yumpin' yimminy,
I think 1 been feel the vay I alvays...
Uh-oh.
Clear your throat, Marjory.
Maybe it'l help.
[Marjory clears throaf]
Ya. Das ist much better.
No, nein, it is not.
Well, you've always said
it would change you.
[as southern debutante]
Well, sakes alive. It don't matter at all.
I just have this
little bitty voice problem.
I wouldn't be here at all
if it weren't for these
two very brave heroic Fraggles.
Aw, please, Madam Heap.
We don't care how you sound.
We care about what you are.
You are our wisdom and comfort and hope.
Yeah. Isn't it great?

which is water in its solid state,
changed it into its liquid state,
then into gas, back into liquid,
and here it is solid again.
Yes, it's one of the basic truths

Oh, no. Did you hear?
I heard. Of course I heard.
The Gorg is going to shovel me away.
Marjory. It's the end.
Nonsense, Gunge.
It's hard to k*ll a trash heap.
But being shoveled up...
Oh, it could change a person.
It could change me forever.
-Oh, no.
-But what can we do?
How can we stop the Gorgs?
Bring me some Fraggles.
Let them be the heroes.
-Bring you some Fraggles?
Fraggles as heroes?
Why not? Take the right Fraggle,
put him in the right place,
he might rise to greatness.

What a horrible song.
I tell you, it's going
to be a perfect day.
The Trash Heap is about
to be shoveled up and carried away.
What?
-So much for your perfect day.
The Gorgs are going to throw away
our beloved Marjory.
Font of all wisdom.
Only you can save her.
Us? We can't save anybody.
Listen, Marjory said bring a Fraggle,
she didn't say which Fraggle.
We choose you.
But...
You'll be a hero.
Oh, I hate crossing the Gorgs' garden.
[gasps] Run.
[whimpering]
-[panting]
-Oh, we did it. We made it past the Gorgs.
We're too late.
The Trash Heap is gone!
Ahh.
[shrieks]
There. The ice cube is gone,
but, no, Sprocket, it has not disappeared.
It has changed from being water
in its solid state
to water in its liquid state,
one of the primordial
transformations of the universe.
[chuckles]
Oh, but we're not finished.
We can change this ice cube again
from water in its liquid state
into water in its gaseous state.
Everything changes, Sprocket.
One day you're going to be
very interested in this.
[Gunge sniffling]

Wait a minute. We can't just give up hope.
So what are you going to do?
I know what I can do.
Yeah? What will you do?
Well, I can ask Gobo what to do.
-Come on.
Check. Huh.
Didn't Marjory say they'd rise
fo the occasion?
I think they're sinking to it.
[snoring]
All ready to build the gazebo,
0 king and strong boss of mine.
[laughs]
-Oh, very good, Junior.
[groans]
-[whimpers]
By the way, what did you do
about that old trash heap?
What did I do with the trash heap?
Oh, don't you worry about that.
I shoveled it all up and then I-
Yoo-hoo, O family of my heart
and love of my life,
lunch is ready.
-Lunch.
-Oh, lunch.
Oh, and, Junior,
bring me my sewing basket, please.
Oh, you got it, O queen and seamstress.
[Boober] Whoa.
Oh.
Thank you, son of a thousand joys.
You're welcome, O queen and fancy talker.
Are we ready now?
All thanks to the spirit
of the great Gorgs
and the generosity of the garden.
Hey, nonny, nonny, nonny.
[slurping]
Ha cha cha.
Now, to this delicious-looking
cold lettuce ragout.
Oh, not for me, good hus.
Insooth I am trying
to lose a little weight.
I shan't be eating lunch today.
Too bad, Ma. This ragout smells delicious.
No, I'l just sit here
and do a little sewing.
Uh-oh.
I'l just finish embroidering
that handkerchief.
[whimpering]
[Pa Gorg] Junior, lad,
I started to ask you,
what did you do with that heap of trash
out where we're building the gazebo?
Oh, you don't have to worry about
that old trash heap ever again, sire sir.
I shoveled it all up and then I--
Has anyone seen a thimble?
Uh, must be in your
sewing basket, duckykins.
Oh. [chuckles]
Now then, Junior, what were you saying?
I was saying you don't have to worry
about the old trash heap.
I shoveled the trash heap up and I put it
over there by the toolshed.
A-ha!
No, no, Junior.
Who wants all that trash in the garden?
Put it in the wheelbarrow
and dump it in the river.
Argh!
What?
Oh, a Fraggle!
Get him. Get him.
Not me, dunderhead. The Fraggle.
Boober. Boober, get up. Get up. Look out!
-[Junior] Aah! I'l get you.
[whimpering]
Junior. Junior, get over here
and help me calm down your mother.
I know where the Trash Heap is, Boober.
Farewell, O Fraggles.
We're going to search the universe
for our beloved Marjory.
But you don't have to.
I know where she is.
[all] Where?
-She's over by the toolshed.
-Come on.
-Yeah!
[Wembley] There she is. See?
I think.
Is she all right?
Oh, Marjory said that you can't k*ll
a trash heap.
Yeah, but she said she could be changed.
Marjory. Marjory darling, are you okay?
See? Its her. [laughing]
Hello, boys. It's me, the Trash Heap.
But you know, I'm feeling a bit strange.
Oh, no. Marjory's turned into a fella.
Oh.
There itis, Sprocket.
Our ice cube transformed first into liquid
and now into gas.
See the steam rising, Sprocket?
Think of how amazing that really is.
Furthermore, I'm taking that steam,
the water in its gaseous state,
and I'm cooling it
by passing it through this tubing
and changing it back into liquid water.
But we needn't stop there. Oh, no.
I can take this water,
put it back into the freezer
and change it back into an ice cube.
What a wonderful idea.
[sighs]
Excuse me, Madam Heap, but are you okay?
It's hard to say.
I told you I might change if I were moved.
Yeah, well, you were certainly right,
Marjory sir.
Why are you all standing around talking?
Didn't you hear?
When the Gorgs finish eating
they're gonna throw
the Trash Heap in the river.
We have to stop those monsters.
Ah, ah, ah. Don't be so hard on the Gorgs.
As far as they're concerned,
I'm just a pile of junk.
Yeah, they've never noticed
Marjory is alive.
But she is. Or he is.
What's more, the Trash Heap
is our wisdom, our comfort, our hope.
-If we lose that...
-Oh.
Yeah, I'm not worried.
You two Fraggles will save me.
I wish you'd stop saying that.
Oh, please, Madam Heap, sir,
I don't have an idea in my head.
Then, Fragglette,
go sit quietly under the tree
at the end of the garden and think of one.
Yes, ma'am-- sir.
Ma'am.
Fragglette?
[Boober] This is madness.
How can we, lowly Fraggles,
think of a way to save the Trash Heap?
It's nearly hopeless.
I keep thinking of this post card
from Traveling Matt.
It's hopeless.
It started something
like “Dear Nephew Gobo..."
I remember that one.
[Matt] You probably won't believe this,
but I discovered these odd, little rooms
that transform people.
[elevator dings]
I watched two of the male creatures
walk info this room.
The doors closed, and a moment later
when they opened again,
they had turned fo ladies.
Ah.
When no one was around,
1 sneaked into the room myself.
I could hardly watt to see what changes
it would make in me.
At first I felt like I was changing.
Then the doors opened, and lo and behold,
the place had changed.
[car honks]
[yelling]
That's it. That's it! [laughs]
What's it?
We don't want the Trash Heap to change.
We want the place where she lives
to change. We have to move her.
Wembley, your brain is floating off
into the sunset.
Where can we move her to? And how?
Oh, where, where, where, where, where?
I've got it! We can move her
to the other side of Fraggle Rock.
The Gorgs never go there. Itll be safe.
Now try the how question.
How, how, how, how, how?
Come quick. The Gorgs are putting Marjory
in a wheelbarrow
s0 they can throw her in the river.
Oh, no.
[yawns]
All done, Daddy.
Now I'l wheel it down
and throw it in the river.
You do that, son... while I take a nap.
Anap?
The afternoon is warm.
Methinks a nap 'twouldst be a fine idea.
Methinks you're on to something, sire.
Aw, Junior,
try not to walk in your sleep this time.
You know how annoying it is.
Yes, Dad.
[snoring]
He walks in his sleep. I think I've got
an idea to save the Trash Heap.
[fit's the idea I think it is,
it's really dumb.
I've got this really dumb idea.
Uh, Junior.
Junior Gorg. Go for a walk.
[incoherent muttering]
Walk?
[Wembley] Yeah, walk and sleep.
Uh, walk.
Yeah. Whoa.
Oh, no, Wembley.
[Wembley] Okay, okay, uh...
Now, Junior Gorg, go, uh, right.
-Right.
Yeah.
[Wembley] No, right.
-Right.
-You know right.
“Wrong.
-Oh, um, well...
Go to the, uh, wheelbarrow.
Wheelbarrow.
Hey, watch out for the table
No, no, no, keep going.
Look out for the table.
Now walk straight...
-Aah, Wembley!
[Wembley] Watch out for the pumpkin.
Look out for the wall. Okay. There...
Now there's the wheelbarrow.
Okay, pick up the wheelbarrow.
There you go. Now turn back. Turn back.
Okay, now walk back
the way you came. Sort of.
No, no. Back, now forward. Forward.
Walk straight ahead. Look out
for the table. Look out for the table.
Look out. Look out for Pa.
[whimpers)
Okay, now tum. Tum.
Careful. Careful. Oh, be careful.
Okay, now straight... No, straight ahead.
Well, turn to your left.
There you go. Now walk. Look out
for the rocks. Look out for the racks.
Okay, now look out for the well.
Turn, turn.
Okay. Now dump the wheelbarrow.
[Junior] Dump the wheelbarrow.
‘Way to go, Wembley.
[Wembley] Okay, now back to your pa.
Oh, be careful.
Okay. Right. Left, I mean right.
I mean left... I mean...
I mean... Hey, wait, wait, hold- Stop!
Okay, now put down the wheelbarrow.
[Junior] Put the wheelbarrow down.
[Wembley] Whew.
Okay, now, uh, sleep.
[Junior] Nighty-night.
[Wembley] Whoa! [grunts]
Come on, Wembley. We gotta run. Come on.
[whimpering]
-Pretty as a picture.
Yeah.
Is she all right?
Oh, the mighty Fraggle heroes...
Are in the presence of...
The all-knowing...
And the recently moved...
[both] Trash Heap.
Nyeh.
It looks good, but there
still could be a problem,
the Trash Heap might still be changed.
We'll soon see.
She looks the same.
Ialalalalalala?
She sounds the same.
[in German accent]
Yeah by yumpin' yimminy,
I think 1 been feel the vay I alvays...
Uh-oh.
Clear your throat, Marjory.
Maybe it'l help.
[Marjory clears throaf]
Ya. Das ist much better.
No, nein, it is not.
Well, you've always said
it would change you.
[as southern debutante]
Well, sakes alive. It don't matter at all.
I just have this
little bitty voice problem.
I wouldn't be here at all
if it weren't for these
two very brave heroic Fraggles.
Aw, please, Madam Heap.
We don't care how you sound.
We care about what you are.
You are our wisdom and comfort and hope.
Yeah. Isn't it great?

[in Irish accent] There we go, me hoyos.
I didn't go away, I just changed a little.
But only a little.
Our transformations
are complete, Sprocket.
We took an ice cube
which is water in its solid state,
changed it into its liquid state,
then into gas, back into liquid,
and here it is solid again.
Yes, it's one of the basic truths
of the physical universe, Sprocket.
Things don't disappear, they just change
and change and change again.
I just remembered...
I don't like iced tea.
