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.

Some wild animal has been
raidingyour vegetable garden?

Well, of course I understandyou
want it stopped, Ms. Ardath.

But Sprocket...

well, I think Sprocket is too
gentleto be a good watchdog.

Well, let me think about it, Ms.
Ardath, and I'll call you back. Bye.

You heard all that, Sprocket?

Ms. Ardath wants youto watch
her vegetable garden tonight.

What do you think?

But, Sprocket, it
could be dangerous.

Okay, okay, okay.
I'll tell her you'll do it.

Oh, Sprockie.

Okay, so, here
are the safety net,

the itchy plant lotion,
the gaga bug repellent,

the itchy plant lotion,
the gaga bug repellent,

the pith helmetand the
freeze-dried radishes.

Red, what's all this for?

For your trip up
Wonder Mountain.

All I need is this guidebook, Wonder
Mountain on Five Radishes a Day.

Tells you everything you need
to knowabout Wonder Mountain.

"Warning: Do not get too
closeto the Singing Cactus,

otherwise you will
be trapped forever."

This is terrible.

Mokey, Mokey. I think
I better go with you.

Red, you see,

the whole point of going
upWonder Mountain is to go alone,

so you can have a solitary,
meditative experience.

Well, maybe you can delay
your tripfor a year or twelve.

No, no, I couldn't do that.

You see, tonight is
the Aurora Fragglealis,

and that only happensonce
every thousand days.

What's an Aurora Fragglealis?

Only the most breathtaking
colored skyyou ever saw.

Well, I like a colorful skyas
much as the next Fraggle,

but I'm still worried about
yougoing on this trip alone.

Don't worry, Red.

If I run into anything dangerous,
I'll just look it up in my book here.

The only way that book'll helpis
if you whack something with it.

Red, I get the feeling that

you don't trust meto take
care of myself on my own.

-Me? Think that?-Yeah. Yeah.

No, no. No, don't be silly,
Mokey. I trust you tons.

-Really?-Really. I promise.

Good.

Then can you do me a favorand
take care of Lanford while I'm gone?

Me? Plant-sit Lanford?

Sure, he's such a
gentle little plant.

He hides it behind
a vicious personality.

Now, now, Lanford, Red, come on.
You two will have a great time together.

Bye, Lanford.

Bye, Red. Have fun, you two.

Don't bug me today, Lanford!

I'm already upset.
I'm already upset.

The thought of Mokey going
off alonewith a book, it's crazy.

I mean, Mokey's so
dreamy, she could be reading

and wander off a cliff, or
walk right into a monster's den.

Laundry!

Boober, you scared me.

Gee, I didn't know
laundrywas such a scary word.

Laundry!

Boober, will you
stop fooling around?

I'm worried about Mokey.

-She's gone off to Wonder
Mountain, alone.-Alone?

Well, that Mokeyis
sure one brave Fraggle.

Wembley, is it braveto go
on a dangerous trip alone?

Yes?

No! It's foolhardy.

Red, I think you're overreacting.
Why, Mokey can take care of herself.

Well, around here, perhaps.

-But out there, who
knows?-Who knows?

Mokey will be fine.

You know, Mokey has her
own wayof getting through things.

Things, yeah. Things, yeah.

-Maybe you're
right.-You could be right.

Yeah. Yeah, there's
probablynothing to worry about.

-Nah. Nothing.
Nah, nah.-Nah. Nah.

I don't know,

I could think of a million
thingsthat could go wrong.

Mokey could sprain her
tailand die of rock exposure.

Boober.

-Exposure?-Wembley.

Or she could get stung by a
cootieand develop rock fever.

Boober.

-Rock fever.-Wembley.

Or she could fall into a
holewith gobby, yucky stuff in it.

Oh, no!

-Yucky stuff.-Wembley!

Or get beaten on the headby a
gigantic chestnut and go insane.

-Insane!-Wembley.

Oh, no! Poor Mokey.
I've gotta go save her!

Wait. No.I promised
her I'd trust her.

I know. I'll secretly follow
herand see if she's okay.

Wait. Who will I get
to plant-sit Lanford?

We could do it.

Thank you, Wembley.

Wembley, you should've asked
usbefore you said we'd do it.

Well, plant-sitting Lanford could be fun.
Well, plant-sitting Lanford could be fun.

Then again, it might not be.

-Hey!-Hey!

-Does that look like
fun?-Help me, help me! Gobo!

I can't plant-sit.

Smell that air.

And look at all these flowers.

You know, sometimes
it's just so goodto be alone.

Let go!

Just don't know what time it is

And sometimes it's
sunnyLike sweet apple honey

I try to remember my name

Sometimes the sky is like blueberry
pieAnd my heart feels the same

Till I just don't know what time it is
Till I just don't know what time it is

And sometimes the
rainStarts to laugh in my veins

Till I feel like
a leaf in a tree

That's when my
heartStarts to tumble apart

And I say now it's time to be me

This trip really is dangerous.

Okay, let's see here.

Now, "The first wonder along Wonder
Trailis the fabulous Invisible Bridge."

Great.

The Invisible Bridge.

I better get there first,
so I can protect Mokey.

Come on, Lanford, open up.

Lanford, the plant
food's good for you.

Don't you wanna grow up
to bea big tree or something?

Look, I gotta do
laundry. Bring the soap.

I'm gonna help Wembley first.
I'm gonna help Wembley first.

-Lanford, you've got
to eat.-Wembley, look.

You're going about this the
wrong way. Let me show you.

-Give me the spoon.-Okay.

See, you have to
makekind of a game out of it.

Yeah, now, go stand over there

-and just watch
how it's done.-Okay.

Yummy, yummy.

That is so yummy, yummy,
-yummy, yummy, yummy.-Yuck!

Would Lanford likesome
yummy, yummy?

Open wide, Lanford.

Here it comes. Look,
look. Here it comes.

Yummy, yummy.

There. Yummy.

There. See, that's how
you get himto eat something.

Oh, no. Lanford ate the soap!

Yes! Lanford!
Lanford, are you okay?

Oh, no. We gotta
do something quick.

If anything happens to Lanford,
Mokey'll never forgive us.

Oh, no.

-Lanford? Lanford?-No,
no, no. This way.

Made it.

Now... that Invisible Bridgeis
supposed to be around here somewhere.

But how am I
supposed to find it?

Found it.

Mokey could easily
miss this bridge.

And fall into the gully below.

I've gotta do somethingto
make it visible.

Perfect.

I'll just drag this
across, and...

Mokey will be able to walkacross
the bridge by following it.

It's a good thing I'm here.
It's a good thing I'm here.

Because... this is dangerous.

Let's see, what's next here?

The Invisible Bridge.

"One of the most popular
wonderson Wonder Trail."

This looks great.

"Built in the last ageby
the magician Doozers,

the Invisible Bridgeis
completely invisible."

Wow.

Normally, I would scream.

Look at this mess on the
Invisible Bridge. That is disgusting.

What was that?

Oh, boy, I can't waitto
tell Red about this.

All right, Sprocket.

Time to go out thereand
watch Ms. Ardath's garden.

Are sure you wouldn't
like meto go with you?

Now, remember, Sprocket,
you don't have to be a hero.

Now, remember, Sprocket,
you don't have to be a hero.

I'm always nearby
if you need me.

Sprocket...

be careful.

I shouldn't worry.

If Sprocket says he'll be
okay, I should trust him.

Besides, the animalthat's
raiding Ms. Ardath's garden

is probably a little rabbit.

What if it's not?

What if it's a fox...

or a bobcat...

or a grizzly bear?

What if it's a huge and ferocious
animalthat's escaped from the circus?

Poor Sprocket.

I'd never forgive myselfif
anything happened to him.

I'll sneak over thereand
keep an eye on him,

just to make sure he's okay.

I better take a shortcutand
get ahead of Mokey.

Without me to protect her, who
knowswhat mess she could get herself into?

Without me to protect her, who
knowswhat mess she could get herself into?

Oh, no.

Those must be
the Singing Cactus.

I recognize them
from the guidebook.

If Mokey gets too close,
she'll be trapped forever.

I know, I'll put up a barrierso
she won't get too close.

Yeah. I wonder how far
awayl should put the barrier.

I'll measure it off. Right.

-One...-Two, three.

There's a new sensation
Spreading far and near

It's the hit of the nationAnd
it started right here

-Where?-Put your hands together

-Put your feet
apart-I'd rather...

-Now you're doing the
sashay, yeah-No, I'm not.

And you feel it in your heart

Everybody sashay there

Red, Red. Red, Red.

Thank you, thank you. And
now we'd like to sing our hit song.

-A one and a two and a
three... Red, Red! Oh, dear.

Don't listen. Hold your
ears. Come with me.

There's a new
sensationSpreading far and near

It's the hit of the nation

Mokey, you can take
your handsoff my ears now.

What? I can't hear you.
I've got radishes in my ears

So that's why she wasn't
enchantedby the Singing Cactus.

-Red, what were you doing out
there?-What was I doing out there?

Yeah, and what are
you doing out here?

What am I doing out here?

Right, and how in the
worlddid you get so messed up?

-And how'd I get so
messed up?-Yeah, and...

Why do you keep
repeatingeverything I say?

And why do I keep re...

Well, after you left,
Well, after you left,

I got to thinkingabout
Wonder Mountain...

-Yeah.-...and all the wonders.

And I thought, well,
I'd like to see them too.

And now that I'm here, maybe we
couldtravel the rest of the way together.

-Yeah... Yeah.

Red, Red,

the whole point of Wonder
Mountainwas to go alone, remember?

-Well, you'll be alone.-Yeah.

And I'll be alone.

Only, we'll be alone together.

Okay, we can try it.

Good. Mokey, you'll
barely know I'm along.

Good, good.

-No. Don't go that
way!-Why? Why?

That's the wrong way.

Red... didn't you saywe
were gonna do this alone?

Well, yeah. But you don't
wanna gothe wrong way, do you?

-No, no, I guess not.
No.-No, no, come on.

Okay, all right.

By the way, Red,

-who's taking care of
Lanford?-Gobo, Wembley and Boober.

Really? I bet they're
having a great time.

There, there. Lanford, say, "Ah."
There, there. Lanford, say, "Ah."

-Come on.-This is all my fault.

If I hadn't been so busy tryingto
show off that I knew how to feed him,

he never would've
eaten that soap.

-Come on. Lanford, say, "Ah."
-Yeah.

How are we ever
gonna tell Mokey?

Please, please,
Lannie, say, "Ah."

Is he okay?

He has never been okay.

Besides that, we are going to
have toget the soap out of him.

Maybe we could hold Lanford
upside downand shake it out of him.

No, no, no, we might uproot him.

Wait a minute. I've got an idea.

Everybody, go and collectas
much water as you can carry.

-Come on.-Water, yes.

Red, Red...

according to the guidebook,
this is Avalanche Pass.

Home of the
bone-crushingAvalanche Monster.

Now, forget that silly
guidebook, Mokey.

You're dealing with someonewho
has a perfect sense of direction.

Just relax, everything's under control.
Just relax, everything's under control.

Red. Look behind you.

Will you stop
whispering and speak up?

The Avalanche Monster!

Just act natural, don't
let on that you're afraid.

Red, stop whimpering.
He'll hear you.

Red!

Run for cover!

Oh, no.

He won't find usif we
don't make any loud noise.

Red, we're really
in trouble now.

-Don't panic, Mokey.-Okay.

I came on this
trip to protect you,

- and I will.-Okay.
- And I will.-Okay.

You what?

Well, I knew this trip
would be dangerous,

and I was right, wasn't
I? It is dangerous.

Red, you promised,
you said you trusted me.

I only broke my promise

because you're my best friend,
and I was worried about you.

If you were my best friend,
you would've trusted me,

you would've kept your promise.

I can take care of myself.

-You can, can you?-I can, yes.

Well, who markedthe
Invisible Bridge for you?

-What?-And... And who saved
you from the Singing Cactus?

The Singing Cactus?

And who got us into this
messwith the Avalanche Monster?

-You did!-Fine, fine,
this is the thanks I get.

This is the last
time I protect you!

You can get out of this mess by
yourself!-Good, good, good. Fine!

You can get out of this mess by
yourself!-Good, good, good. Fine!

Avalanche!

We gave him too much water.
Lanford's gonna get root rot.

Oh, no. What are
we gonna do now?

Well, Gobo... you're gonna have
togive him mouth-to-leaf resuscitation.

Oh, no. No, anything but that.

But Mokey could come
backat any moment,

and what will happen if
she findsLanford like this?

Okay, you guys hold him.

-Okay.-Okay.

Okay, steady, Lannie.

Hurry, Gobo.

Hey. Hey, hey!

He's waking up, he's waking up!

Lanford, are you okay?

Gobo, how are you?

-I think the monster's
given up.-What?

Now's our chance to
make a break for it.-No.

Now's our chance to
make a break for it.-No.

Mokey, forget your pride.

-Come with me, before
it's too late.-Avalanche!

I was almost pulverized.

If you hadn't pulled me out of
the way, I could've been k*lled.

I'm so glad you weren't.

We have got to think
of a wayout of this mess.

Yeah.

-Let's take a look at that
guidebook.-Guidebook? Okay.

Okay, here it is, here it is.

-Yeah, what? What?-Look
up the Avalanche Monster.

The Avalanche Monster.
Here it is, here it is.

"The Avalanche Monster has bad
eyes, but a keen sense of hearing."

Are you thinking
what I'm thinking?

-Yeah, yeah.-Here.
Come here, come here.

Okay. Okay.

-Hey, rock breath!-Catch
us if you can!

Hey.

This way, pebble brain!

This way, this way!

Well, good evening. We'd like
to do our big hit song for you,

and it goes just like this.

A one, a two, a three...

There's a new
sensationSpreading far and near

It's the hit of the nation...
- This way.-What?

Come on!

Put your hands together...

I was so busy protecting you...

-Yeah.-...I caused
us a lot of trouble.

I'm sorry.

If I had stayed home... none
of this would've happened.

Look.

Oh, Red.

You know what?

I'm really glad you
followed me, 'cause, well,

now I'm here with
my best friend.

Look.

The Aurora Fragglealis.

Better than the book!

Who is it?

Is that you, Sprocket?

Are you alone?

Oh, Sprocket.

That skunk was awful.

Well, you were lucky you didn't
getsprayed, I got it all over me.

But then you were doingwhat
you were supposed to do:

guard Ms. Ardath's garden.

I guess I arrived at the
wrong placeat the wrong time.

It's a smelly lesson to learn,

but that's the last time I protect
youwhen you don't need it.
