Mr. Rogers: You know, my main way is with music. I started to make up songs when I was very young. I'd just go to the piano. I'd make up a song about whatever I was thinking about doing. Like, uh,

Chef Brockett: [Imitating King Friday XIII] "We must have lot's of waffles on Friday at Someplace Else".

Mr. Rogers: You always make it a special day for me. You know how, don't you? By just your being you. Whether you're in kindergarten or third grade or no grade at all or ANY grade at all, I like you just the way you are. I'll be back tomorrow. Bye.

Mr. Rogers: Mr. Trow is a real friend of mine, and he's got a workshop, it's not far from here, where he makes these beautiful things. Sometimes I pretend, though, that he's in the Neighborhood of Make Believe. You know Robert Troll?

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Did I hear what you said?

King Friday XIII: Welcome, Lady and Good Wolf. Tuesday and Tome are in the “W'”Room, waiting for you wolves. And you too, Lady Aberlin. We will welcome you in the Wonderful Watermelon room.

King Friday XIII: [looking at a balloon flower] But what if all the air would go out of it?
Lady Aberlin: It would be an airless flower.
King Friday XIII: I see no use in that.
Lady Aberlin: But you like it the way it is now, don't you?
King Friday XIII: I do. Yes.
Lady Aberlin: Well, then, why don't you just enjoy looking at it the way it is now without worrying about the way it will look when the air is out.
King Friday XIII: There is some merit to your conventional ways, Niece Aberlin.

Audrey Paulifficate: I really should be getting back to my duty.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Don't you want to be in on my announcement?
Audrey Paulifficate: Oh, sure, but... King Friday?
King Friday XIII: I am a generous king. You may have three more minutes of castle garden time.

King Friday XIII: Ladies and gentlemen, attention please. It seems there has been a misunderstanding.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [looks at Chuck Aber] More like a Mr. understanding, I'd say.

Mr. Rogers: [after drawing a picture to the music of Mozart] Here's my song. Everybody would draw a different song to that music. I wonder what kind of song you might draw.

Mr. Rogers: [has traced his hand onto a piece of paper and wrote "Thank You"] And that will be a thank you note for Mr. McFeely. I can just say, "Mr. McFeely, I've got to *hand* it to you. Here's a thank you note for you".

X the Owl: [Mr. McFeely is almost hit by X's tripod as he pushes it out his door] Sorry, Mr. McFeely!
Mr. McFeely: This neighborhood is a dangerous place today.
X the Owl: I beg your partner?

King Friday XIII: I understand that you have an imaginary friend.
Robert Troll: Oh, yes, I sure do.
[troll talk]
Robert Troll: Her name is Gloria...
[troll talk]
Robert Troll: She's my pet.
King Friday XIII: Some people cannot see imaginary friends and pets. I've always prided myself being able to see what others are unable to see.
Robert Troll: Oh, yeah...
[troll talk]

Mr. McFeely: Speedy delivery!
Mr. Rogers: Just the right amount of time, Mr. McFeely.
Mr. McFeely: What do you mean?
Mr. Rogers: It took you one song to get here.
Mr. McFeely: Well, I didn't know I was that musical.

Queen Sara Saturday: Robert Troll, how good it is to see you.
Robert Troll: Oh, it's good to see you.
[troll talk]
Queen Sara Saturday: Where have you been keeping yourself?
Robert Troll: [troll talk] Under the bridge over troubled waters.

Mr. McFeely: [remembering his wedding] We've been married 45 years.
Mr. Rogers: Have you always been happy?
Mr. McFeely: Well nobody's happy all the time. But Betsy and I have had a big share of happiness.
Mr. Rogers: Some people get married and after a while they get so unhappy with each other that they don't want to be married anymore.
Mr. McFeely: [talking quickly] I know and sometimes they get divorced and that's all very sad, well I've got to be going now, but thank you for playing the music for me. I appreciate it.
Mr. Rogers: Well I'm glad you stopped by, Mr. McFeely. Thank you for telling us about your wedding.
[McFeely exits]
Mr. Rogers: Well, Mr. McFeely left so fast. As soon as we started talking about divorce. I guess that's something he doesn't like to talk about.

Mr. Rogers: The next time you hear from me, I will be wearing Mr. McFeely's t-shirt.

Mr. Rogers: Alright, see you in a minute.
[Hangs up the phone]
Mr. Rogers: That was Sylvia Earle herself. She'll be over in a little while.
[There is a knock at the door]
Mr. Rogers: She must walk very fast.

Mr. Rogers: Did you ever hear loud, scary sounds on television? Well some television programs are loud and scary, with people shooting and hitting other people. You know, you can do something about that. When you see scary television, you can TURN IT OFF. And when you do turn it off, that will show that YOU'RE the strongest of them all. It takes a very strong person to be able to turn off scary TV. Mmm-hmm. That's one of the ways you'll be able to tell that you're really growing. You're learning so many important things, and I'm so proud of you.

Mr. Rogers: So let's just go to the kitchen right now. Do you like kitchens? I certainly do.

Mr. Rogers: It's almost time to go. So...
[singing]
Mr. Rogers: Let's go right away/ Go somewhere today/ Let's be together and stay and stay/ Let's go together today/ Right away/ Let's be together today/ Together's the way I like the best/ I like to be with you/ I like the the things you explain to me/ The things you show me to do/ Let's go right away/ Go somewhere today/ Let's be together/ And stay and stay/ Let's go together today/ Right away/ Let's be together today/ Oh someday it's good to play alone/ But sometimes I get bored/ There's just so much you can do yourself/ With a ball. Or a doll. Or a sword/ But whenever I hear you want some time and want me to be with you/ I wonder how you knew/ 'Cause that's what I wanted too/ Let's go right away/ Go somewhere today/ Let's be together/ And stay and stay/ Let's go together today/ Right away/ Let's be together... Today.

Mr. Rogers: A lot of people have asked me how they can get a trolley like mine to play with. And I usually say, "Why don't you just make one?"

Mr. Rogers: What do you think King Friday will say about Lady Elaine's instrument? She just put a make believe bass violin in front of her accordion, didn't she? That was fooling, wasn't it?

Mr. Rogers: Would you like to come inside?
Ella Jenkins: No, why don't we stay outside. These rhythms work much better out this way. And it's such a beautiful day too.
Mr. Rogers: It is. It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood.

Mr. Rogers: You know, growing means when you're a baby and you're angry, all you can do is scream and kick. That's all. But when you get a little older, you can say that you're angry. You can stomp around and make up a dance, or pound some clay and make things out of clay, and sing a song or write a poem. That's what it means to grow. I'm proud of the way you're growing and changing.

Harriet Elizabeth Cow, Daniel Striped Tiger, Ana Platypus, Prince Tuesday: [Sung at the beginning of nearly every school scene] Ana, Prince and Daniel/ Ana, Prince and Daniel/ Daniel, Prince and Ana/ Are Here.

Keith the Southwood Carpenter: These are our two puppets, Keith Bass Violin and Jimmy Bass Violin. They're brothers. Now James is going to make Jimmy talk and I'll make Keith talk.
[James Michael Jones and Keith present their puppets and hide]

Jimmy Bass Violin: Hello, Keith.
Keith Bass Violin: I don't wanna talk.
Jimmy Bass Violin: Well what's the matter?
Keith Bass Violin: I don't know.
Jimmy Bass Violin: Well I thought we could play together.
Keith Bass Violin: I don't feel like playing with you.
Jimmy Bass Violin: Why not?
Keith Bass Violin: You're too young.
Jimmy Bass Violin: But I'm your brother and I want to play with you.
Keith Bass Violin: Well that's too bad. I'm gonna play with my big friends. Bye!
Jimmy Bass Violin: Oh. I feel so sad. I think I'll cry.
[Cries]

Officer Clemmons: [singing] I remember my grandad/ He used to use straws/ The kind that wound bend in the middle
Mr. M: [Demonstrates] Like this?
Officer Clemmons: That's the kind.
Mr. M: You may have it.
Officer Clemmons: Thank you. He'd hum me a song in water, like this.
[Blows bubbles in his water while humming]
Daniel Striped Tiger: That's funny!
Officer Clemmons: But the song had words.
Lady Aberlin: Did your grandad teach those too?
Officer Clemmons: He certainly did.
[singing]
Officer Clemmons: When the day turns into night/ And you're way beyond my sight/ I think of you/ I think of you/ When the night turns into day/ And you still are far away/ I think of you/ I think of you/ Even when I am not here/ We still can be so very near/ I want you to know, my dear/ I think of you/ When the night turns into day/ And you still are far away/ I think of you/ I think... Of... You.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] Let's think of something to do while we're waiting/ While we're waiting/ For something new to do/ Let's think up a song while we're waiting/ That's liberating/ And will be true to you/ Let's think of something to do while we're waiting/ While we're waiting/ 'Till something's through/ You know it's really alright/ In fact it's downright quite right/ To think of something to do that's specific for you/ Let's think of something to do while we're waiting.

Mr. Rogers: [about Bramble, a horse] Can you see his great big eye? He looks one side at somebody and the other side at somebody. That's a big eye you have, Bramble.

Mr. Rogers: [assembling a model railroad] This is the flat car. I guess it's called that because it's flat.

Mr. Rogers: Hi. I'm so glad to see you. I thought about you all weekend. Wondering what you were doing. How you were feeling? How was your weekend? I like it when you tell me things.

King Friday XIII: I trust that you will tell the world about our royal news.
Officer Clemmons: I'll be very glad to, King Friday. I'll also be able to tell another neighborhood about your wonderful news.
King Friday XIII: Another neighborhood? What do you mean?
Officer Clemmons: Well you see, I just received this telegram notifying me that I've been accepted by the Metropolitan Opera Studio in another city.
King Friday XIII: Another city?
Officer Clemmons: Yes. My wife and I will be leaving next week.
King Friday XIII: You'll not be a policeman anymore?
Officer Clemmons: I'm going to be a full time opera singer.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh... I'll bet you'll go away forever. I'll bet he'll leave forever.
Officer Clemmons: No I won't, Lady Elaine, I'll come back and visit all my friends here.

Henrietta Pussycat: Meow meow take your bed meow?
Officer Clemmons: Yes, Henrietta, we'll take our bed, we'll take our clothes, our television set, and all the other things we'll need to live there.
Queen Sara Saturday: Oh we will miss you, Officer Clemmons.
Officer Clemmons: Well I can always make believe that I'm here, though.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Some places are too far away for make believing.
Officer Clemmons: Well, Lady Elaine, I don't know any of those places. Well, I guess I better get back to my work now. I'm so pleased to hear about your wonderful news, King Friday and Queen Sara.
Queen Sara Saturday: And we're pleased for you, Officer Clemmons.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well, this is something I've always wanted to do.
King Friday XIII: Something he has always wanted to do, everyone!

King Friday XIII: Donkeys should stay in their windmills!

King Friday XIII: I understand that you have been angry with your mother and me.
Prince Tuesday: Well, sort of.
King Friday XIII: That's very understandable.
Prince Tuesday: It is?
King Friday XIII: I used to be angry with my mother and father.
Prince Tuesday: You were?
King Friday XIII: Yes. They would always be working someplace else and I didn't want them to go. But they told me they didn't like leaving me any more than I liked their going. In fact, I remember seeing my father cry one day when he had to leave us.
Prince Tuesday: Your father? Grandfather Thursday cried?
King Friday XIII: He did.
Queen Sara Saturday: Well sometimes we cry when we have to leave you, Tuesday, but we have to do our work. People depend on us to do the work.
Prince Tuesday: I guess I never thought of it that way.
King Friday XIII: I trust we will talk about it some more when we all get home from our work today.
Prince Tuesday: Yes. I'm going to help the children at the caring center with their block building and stuff like that.

Handyman Negri: [about a strange spare part they got from Corny] I was wondering, do you think it may be a part of a windmill or something like that?
King Friday XIII: I have reason to believe that it might be part of a bomb.
Handyman Negri: A bomb?
King Friday XIII: Yes, so here is your assignment, Handyman Negri: you are to order a million of these from Cornflake S. Pecially and conscript everyone in the neighborhood to help put the bombs together.
Handyman Negri: But King Friday...
King Friday XIII: No buts about it, Handyman, this is serious business.
Handyman Negri: Yes, sire, but a million of them?
King Friday XIII: Yes, a million. If Southwood has a million, we will have a million and ONE.
Handyman Negri: I see.
King Friday XIII: You have your work to do. I must get in touch with our known allies.

X the Owl: [has been asked to help assemble a bomb] I don't think we should call them "bombs", though. We should call them "surprise treats" or something like that. Bombs are scary things and hurting things.
Handyman Negri: Yeah.

Handyman Negri: King Friday has ordered one million parts from Corny. That's going to take all of the country's money.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: A million parts for what?
Handyman Negri: To make bombs.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Bombs? Who's having a war?
Handyman Negri: Well, he thinks we may have to.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: With whom?
Handyman Negri: With Southwood.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Southwood? Why I've heard that those people are tamer than Daniel Tiger. They wouldn't hurt anybody.

Audrey Paulifficate: [Answers phone] Neighborhood of Make Believe, castle garden. Yes, he is. He's working on the bomb right now.
Handyman Negri: I don't think you're supposed to say things like that, Miss P.
Audrey Paulifficate: Oh. No, he's not working on a bomb.

Bob Dog: I'm a spy for the war.
Lady Aberlin: A spy for the WHAT?
Bob Dog: The war. The war with Southwood.
Lady Aberlin: But we're not having a war with Southwood. We're not having a war with anyone!
Bob Dog: [after pause] Well, then, just in case. See, I like to do detective work and that's alot like spy work, you know.
Lady Aberlin: I know, but war is not a game, Bob Dog. War isn't anything that's fun. War is a terrible thing and we must do all we can to not EVER have one.
Bob Dog: Okay, well I can still wear this costume though, can't I?

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I'm glad you came to ask me. I'll all for it.
Mr. Strother: Good.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: On one condition.
Lady Aberlin, Mr. Strother: What's that?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: That I get to win.
Mr. Strother: Win the Make Believe Olympic Games?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You got it, Buster.
Mr. Strother: But there are alot of winners.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: And there are alot of losers, and I don't want to be a loser.
Lady Aberlin: But Lady Elaine, it's not a game if you know you're going to win.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I don't care. One thing's sure: I'll say yes if you'll say I'll win.
Lady Aberlin: Oh honestly, Lady Elaine.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Yeah well, that's it.

Daniel Striped Tiger: Robot67-Bridge 2, will you play with me?
Robot67-Bridge2: No.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Why?
Robot67-Bridge2: I have no more time for you. Exit greetings.
[Rolls away]
Daniel Striped Tiger: [Handyman Negri approaches] The robot said it didn't have any more time for me.
Handyman Negri: It's strange to have a machine that talks, isn't it?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Yes. You start to get to like it and then...
Handyman Negri: And then what?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Well then you realize it doesn't have any feelings.
Handyman Negri: But you still have feelings.
Daniel Striped Tiger: I know. Do you think it's good to have feelings, Handy?
Handyman Negri: I think it's the best, Daniel. Because if you have feelings, you can love people and you can feel that they love you and that's the greatest thing in the world.

Chuck Aber: [about Mimus Polyglottos; imiating King Friday] And it wants a shower.
Audrey Paulifficate: So says King Friday.
Chuck Aber: Shall we give it one?
Audrey Paulifficate: [Angrily] I'd like to give it something more than a shower.

Mr. Rogers: Picture Picture says "Hello". I suppose you saw that earlier, didn't you? When Picture Picture has that word, do you know that it says "Hello"? Hello.

Mr. Rogers: [a fish in his tank had died, so he buried it in the yard] When I was very young, I had a dog that I loved very much. Her name was Mitzi. And she got to be old, and she died. I was very sad when she died, because she and I were good pals. And when she died, I cried. My grandmother heard me crying, I remember, and she came and just put her arms around me, because she knew I was sad. She knew how much I loved that dog. My dad said that we had to bury Mitzi, and I didn't want to. I didn't want to bury her because I wanted to pretend that she was still alive. But my dad said that her body was dead and we'd have to bury her. So we did.
[Goes back into the house]
Mr. Rogers: I remember after my dog Mitzi died, my aunt and uncle gave me a toy dog, like this, that I used to play with. I used to make it go like this, then make it pop up again like that. Pretending. Even now I can still remember Mitzi's prickly fur and her curly tail. She had a tail that went around like that.

Betty Aberlin: [they are making paper fish] How did you put the eye on?
Mr. Rogers: I put a little spit on it.

X the Owl: Can you feel the baby inside you?
Queen Sara Saturday: Just a little bit. It moves around and I know that it's there.
Lady Aberlin: Henrietta wonders if she could see it, but I told her that nobody would be able to see it until it was born.
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow. Meow meow meow meow babysitter meow meow.
Queen Sara Saturday: I would be delighted for you to be a babysitter, dear. I just know that the baby will love you.
Lady Aberlin: Imagine, having an owl and a pussycat for neighbors.

Queen Sara Saturday: I just love everything about this neighborhood.
X the Owl: What do you love the best?
Queen Sara Saturday: Well, King Friday of course, but I think all of our neighbors are so special.
X the Owl: We sure like you too, Queen Sara, you don't mind talking about important things.
Queen Sara Saturday: Well talking about important things is the best way for people to grow.

King Friday XIII: One plus two plus two plus one...
Queen Sara Saturday: Six, Friday. And six plus six is twelve.
King Friday XIII: Yes, that's what I was afraid of. Sharing a household isn't easy, is it?
Queen Sara Saturday: No, but I'm glad we're doing it together.

King Friday XIII: Am I to understand that Ana Platypus has some very fancy shoes and Lady Elaine thinks these shoes should be shared?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You got it, toots.
Robert Troll: But Lady Elaine doesn't need them, King Friday.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I don't need them. I just want them.
King Friday XIII: Silence, please. Fairchilde, you know we share in this neighorhood.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I know that, that's why I came here.
King Friday XIII: This is the rule. But, there are exceptions to the rule. Ana does not have to share her shoes with you.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Friday, that's not fair.
King Friday XIII: I am a fair king.
Queen Sara Saturday: Lady Elaine, isn't there anything in your Museum Go Round that you don't feel you have to share?
Robert Troll: Yeah, there must be something back in there.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well, not my Boomerang Toomerang Soomerang. Everyone knows that.
Robert Troll: [Mutters] Yeah, everyone KNOWS that.

Queen Sara Saturday: Can you understand how Ana feels? Perhaps a little?
King Friday XIII: Yes, can you understand?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well, perhaps a little.
Robert Troll: Ana is good at sharing. Most things.
King Friday XIII: Just like you, Lady Elaine.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well, maybe you're right. I don't like being wrong one bit. But, maybe this once I might be a LITTLE wrong.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: This is no time for visiting, Brockett.
Chef Brockett: Well what's the matter?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Don't look now, but we are being invaded from outer space.
Chef Brockett: What makes you think that?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: The flying bread. Dangerous, dangerous people, those bread people. But very clever.
Chef Brockett: I'm not going to go along with this.

[repeated line]
Ino A. Horse: I know.

Mr. Rogers: You know we've been pretending that there's going to be a swimming pool in the Neighborhood of Make Believe, and something very important I want to mention to you before we have our make believe: water and pools are NOT for children to play in by themselves. When you're near a swimming pool, you must NOT go in without a grown-up around. That's very important to remember. Okay, let's get the trolley.

Bob Trow: I'm just fixing this old shovel handle here.
Mr. Rogers: What happened?
Bob Trow: It broke.

Bob Trow: That Phillips screwdriver there ought to do the trick.
Mr. Rogers: Why is that called a Phillips screwdriver?
Bob Trow: I understand that a man by the name of Phelps invented it. And over the years it just became Phillips.

Daniel Striped Tiger: What is it that you're doing, Ana?
Ana Platypus: Well everytime a big shovel of dirt is moved, I move all the little stones that are left over.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Good for you, Ana.

Bob Dog: [They're digging a hole for a swimming pool] The water's already here, your highness, and we're not finished digging.
King Friday XIII: Why... It's too soon! It's too soon!
Ana Platypus: Is it time to go swimming already?
Lady Aberlin: Oh no, dear, this water is coming unexpectedly.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Oh, are we going to drown?
King Friday XIII: Of course not, Daniel, but we must not waste this water.
Lady Aberlin: What?
King Friday XIII: Not a single drop. This is Neighborhood water. It must be saved.

Ana Platypus: [while digging a hole for a swimming pool, they accidentally broke water pipes; Daniel and Ana are collecting the water in buckets] It's all too gushy!
Daniel Striped Tiger: It is, but we've got to try.
Ana Platypus: I'm trying, but I can't do this, Daniel. It's too hard!
Daniel Striped Tiger: But if you cry, you'll make more water, Ana.

Mr. McFeely: That looks like a whole lot of soap, Lady Elaine.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: That's it. We're making a soap opera here so I figured we'd need a lot of soap.

Mr. Rogers: I never saw a parrot eat a grape.

Mr. Rogers: Well, I expected a dog and I got a parrot. Oh, and here's the dog.

Mr. Rogers: Did you see what I brought in with me? It's a case with a long zipper across here. Can you imagine what might be in here? Can you image what might NOT be in here?

King Friday XIII: You and your squirting hose are to receive an award.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: An award? For what?
King Friday XIII: For knowing when to turn it on, turn it off, turn it on, and turn it off.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well, that WAS hard to learn.

Mr. Rogers: I'll-bile bobbee bobback.

King Friday XIII: And what are you ladies planning to invest your energy in this lovely moment in time?

Arthur Mitchell: [Talking about little kids] I wanna take you downstairs and show you my little ones.
Mr. Rogers: Oh good.

Chuck Aber: I agree that you're a very strong person, Lady Elaine.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I don't lift weights.
Chuck Aber: I think you're a strong person INSIDE.

Mr. Rogers: Maybe you and your family and friends could have your own arts festival. And include whatever you like to do. Such as drawing, or painting, or dancing, or dressing up, or singing, or cooking. There are many ways of saying who you are and how you feel. Ways that can be so helpful. Ways that don't hurt yourself or anybody else. You know, that's how you can tell when you're grown up inside: you're sure that what you're planning and doing are things that can be a real help to you and your neighbor. I'm proud of you, know that. I hope you do.

Chuck Aber: [H.M. had just carried a ton of sand bags by himself] Oh Hula Mouse, and I didn't help you at all. I'm sorry.
H.M. Hula Mouse: Ah, nevermind. It's not heavy. It's make believe.

King Friday XIII: I feel like reciting the royal version of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.
Lady Aberlin: Oh, please do if you will, Uncle.
King Friday XIII: Certainly, yes. Scintillate, Scintillate diminutive stellar orb. How inexplicable to me seems this stupendous problem of your existance. Elevated at such at an imeasurable distance, in an apparently perpendicular direction from this terrestrial planet which we occupy. Resembling in thy dazzeling and unapproachable efulgance, a gem of purist carbon, set solitaire in a university of space.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [King Friday, Dr. Bill and Handyman Negri play a festive tune] No, no, no. The bass doesn't help ANY. You fellows will never win.
Dr. Duckbill Platypus: But Lady Elaine, it's not about winning. It's about having fun.
King Friday XIII: Yes,
[angrily]
King Friday XIII: Why must you always stick your big nose into everyone's business, Fairchilde?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Now you've done it, Friday! Now you're really gonna be sorry!
[leaves]

Lady Aberlin: Are these carrots?
Elsie Jean Platypus: Yes, but I thought you could help me decide where they might look best.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You'll never win with carrots.
Lady Aberlin: That sounds like Lady Elaine.
Elsie Jean Platypus: Yes, it is. She does not like my carrots
Lady Aberlin: I wonder why.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I'll tell you why, toots.
[Appears wearing a blanket over her head]
Lady Aberlin: Is that you, Lady Elaine?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: It is I, and my head covering.
Elsie Jean Platypus: But why are you covering your head?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: So nobody will see my carrot. I mean, my nose!

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Ladies and gentlemen, as judge of this festival, I've decided to award that sketch masterpiece of mine first prize!
Mayor Maggie: First prize? But Lady Elaine, you haven't seen the other entries.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well, what else is there?
Mayor Maggie: This tiny rockit by Corny.
[Shows her the tiny, automatic rocking chair]
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Let me see it. Pretty good. A first prize for Corny.
Chuck Aber: And the sand sculpture. What about our Westwood sand sculpture?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Aw, now there: I look at it with different eyes. A first prize for Westwood.
[Chuck and Maggie are astounded]
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Yes, first prize.
King Friday XIII: And my new royal robes?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh, a first prize for you, Friday.
King Friday XIII: I marvel at what I'm hearing right now.

Mr. Rogers: [the last lines of the last episode] I like being your television neighbor.
[singing]
Mr. Rogers: It's such a good feeling/To know you're alive/It's such a happy feeling/You're growing inside/And when you wake up/ready to say/I think I'll make a snappy new day/It's such a good feeling/A very good feeling/The feeling you know that I'll be back/When the week is new/And I'll have more ideas for you/And you'll have things you'll want to talk about. I... Will... Too.
[Speaking]
Mr. Rogers: "Be back next time. Bye-bye.
[Exits]

Mr. Rogers: You know, I was just thinking. Every person, whether little or big, is a human being. And because we are human there are many things that are alike about all of us. For instance, we all need to be loved. Everybody does. Every person that you see in this world needs to be loved. And the marvelous thing about being human is that while we're very much alike, each one of us is very different too. Isn't it great that we can care about one another the way we do?

Mr. Rogers: And the clock says it's about time for me to go. Sometimes clocks can make you angry when they seem to go so fast and the time just goes tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock and it's time to go. It seems that happens when you're having a good time. But you and I will have another good time
[singing]
Mr. Rogers: Tomorrow. Tomorrow/We'll start the day tomorrow with a song or two/One, two/Tomorrow. Tomorrow/We'll start the day tomorrow with a smile for you/'Til then I hope you're feeling happy/'Til then I hope your day is/Snappy/ Tomorrow. Tomorrow/It soon will be tomorrow and will be our day/We will say, a very happy tomorrow to you.

King Friday XIII: I am about to make an announcement.
Mayor Maggie: Can we help you, King Friday?
King Friday XIII: Of course.
Mayor Maggie: What can we do?
King Friday XIII: You can listen.

King Friday XIII: Lady Aberlin and Lady Fairchilde, I presume?
Lady Aberlin: [Bowing with a curtsy] Correct as usual, King Friday.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Right you are sometimes, Friday.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Where are you, Handy? I called you seconds ago!

Reardon: [Returning the Neighborhood of Make Believe after 5 years] Aw, how good it is to be back.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh Reardon. Hello, dear.
Reardon: The first voice I hear.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Over here, dear.
Reardon: Coming, Lady Elaine.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well, well, well, well.
Reardon: Well, well, well, well.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You're a site for my beautiful eyes.
Reardon: Well they are beautiful and it is beautiful to be back in this neighborhood.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [Reardon has just sung a beautiful, powerful opera song] Oh! I think the opera should be just the two of us. No bubbles of frills. Just two lovely voices blending in the breeze. I, Hildegard Hummingbird, and you, the TV news man.
Reardon: Well, er... Whom do you think I should be?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You should have a television news program that tells all about me. I could be the hummingbird who pops bubbles in Bubbleland.
Reardon: Oh, well it sounds different anyway.

Daniel Striped Tiger: Did anybody ever make a sweater for a rocking chair?
Prince Tuesday: [Prince Tuesday and Ana laugh] That's funny, Daniel.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Oh, I just didn't mean it to be funny.
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: How did you mean it, Daniel?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Well, chairs have arms and legs and back and seat just like we do, so I thought maybe...
Lady Aberlin: [Enters] Hi.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Oh hi, Lady Aberlin.
Lady Aberlin: Oh, what were you saying before I came in?
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Well Daniel has this idea about chairs and sweaters and well we've never heard of such a thing before.
Daniel Striped Tiger: I thought maybe chairs could have sweaters since they have arms and legs and all.
Lady Aberlin: Chair sweaters. I never thought of that.
Cornflake S. Pecially: They'd be great for the winter time, wouldn't they?
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: I'll say.

Ana Platypus: Sometimes I like to make up stories about people.
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Most animals like to do that, dear. And people like to make up stories about animals too.

Handyman Negri: Would you like me to blow you away, sire?
King Friday XIII: Oh that might be pleasant for a change.

Captain B: [singing] It's funny/It's funny/It's surely more than funny/I think there must be something I should do.
[Hildegarde Hummingbird flies by]
Captain B: Hello, Hildegarde.
Hildegarde Hummingbird: Goodbye, Captain B.
Captain B: Going somwhere?
Hildegarde Hummingbird: Anywhere but this where.
Captain B: Did you know there is a wave in the sea?
Hildegarde Hummingbird: A wave or a windstorm, nothing surprises me.

Captain B: I suggest you report the truth on television! Can't you see there's a wave out there?
Friendly Frank the Porpoise: [singing] That's what I was a afraid of/ I'm going to swim out and find out/How big it is.
Theresa: Uh,
[Touching her hair]
Theresa: where's that Robert Redgate?
Friendly Frank the Porpoise: [singing] He and that sweater maker went to the National Bubble Chemical Company.

Friendly Frank the Porpoise: [singing] I've just come back from the ocean/Where the waves are coming in fast/The banana boat captain is asking how long we think it will last.
Robert Redgate: [singing] We don't know how long it will last. But we do know that we announced it first.
Lady Aberlin: Wrong! You know that's wrong.
[singing]
Lady Aberlin: It was Hildegarde Hummingbird, smallest of all/ Who told us this morning in this very hall/ That a windstorm was coming and we should beware/ But how did we treat her?
Robert Redgate: [singing] We sent her elsewhere.

Mr. McFeely: It's some sort of machine for Corny's factory.
Prince Tuesday: Does it have any feelings?
Mr. McFeely: What do you mean, Prince Tuesday?
Prince Tuesday: I mean, does that machine have any feelings?
Mr. McFeely: It has specifications and instructions. It says nothing about feelings. Why do you ask?
Prince Tuesday: Just wondered.
Lady Aberlin: Prince Tuesday and I were talking about feelings and how machines don't have feelings.
Mr. McFeely: Oh, I see. No, I'm sure that this doesn't have feelings.
Prince Tuesday: Well then I'd like to trade places with it. Just leave the machine here and deliver me to Corny's.
Mr. McFeely: Oh I couldn't do that, Prince Tuesday. You'll never be a machine.
Prince Tuesday: Even if I don't want to have any feelings?
Mr. McFeely: No, you'll always be a person and persons have feelings and that's the way it is.

Prince Tuesday: I don't mind having good feelings, but I don't like the bad ones.
Mr. McFeely: Well I know how you feel, young man, and there's one thing I'd like to tell you: I'm sure glad to know you.
Prince Tuesday: Why?
Mr. McFeely: Because if you're concerned about feelings, you're growing up to be somebody who cares about people.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Corny! Cornflake!
Lady Aberlin: Corny? Cornflake S. Pecially!
Cornflake S. Pecially: [enters] Well if it's not two women with Lady names.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Listen, toots, we've got more important things to talk about than airplanes.
King Friday XIII: For once I agree with you, Fairchilde.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh I think I'm gonna faint.

Henrietta Pussycat: Meow meow, X. Meow meow Mr. McMeowly.
Mr. McFeely: Hi, Hen, we're planting some seeds out here.
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow meow.
X the Owl: My Speedy Seeds came, Hen, so now I can invite you to dinner.

X the Owl: [Waiting for seeds to grow] Maybe they need more water.
Mr. McFeely: What they need is patience, X.
X the Owl: Well where do you get that?
Mr. McFeely: Patience comes from inside yourself.
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow meow little meow meow seed?
Mr. McFeely: That's true, Henrietta. Patience is a little like seeds. It's something that grows little by little.
X the Owl: [Glumly] Oh boy!

Mr. Rogers: Do you find that eating is fun for you? Especially when you're hungry?

Mr. Rogers: [At a vegetable soup factory] Look at the peas coming along here. Oh, that looks like a waterfall. It's a peafall. Look, it's a peafall instead of a waterfall.

Lady Aberlin: You know, those Speedy Seeds really worked well.
Old Goat: Baah. Maaah. Baah. Baah.
Lady Aberlin: That's a good idea. If you plant some right away, you should have a very good crop by next week.

Daniel Striped Tiger: [Bob Dog has made a vegetable soup can tree. Daniel thinks it's real] Isn't that great? You told me it would grow, Bob Dog. Some people told me it wouldn't work. And they said they hoped I wouldn't be too disappointed if it didn't.
Bob Dog: Who are they?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Ana and Lady Aberlin. But I'll show them.
Bob Dog: Yeah.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Now, will you help me with something?
Bob Dog: What do you want me to do, Daniel?
Daniel Striped Tiger: This will be wonderful. I want to plant each one of these little cans and we'll have that many more trees. And then I'll get more big cans and plant them and we'll have a whole garden of trees and get lots of cans of soup everyday for this neighborhood and any other neighborhood that needs them.
Bob Dog: Cans everyday?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Oh sure. If we can grow vegetable soup right in the can, we've really discovered something very important. Don't you understand?

Mr. Rogers: Even if it's something disappointing, it's still better to know the truth. Because people can deal with disappointment. And once they've done that, they can feel that they have really grown. And that can be such a good feeling.

Mr. Rogers: So friends are friends. We thought alot about friends, haven't we? And we've thought alot about food. Especially food for the body. And that's a very important kind of food, because when a person is very, very hungry, he or she can't think of any other kinds of food. But there are other kinds. Music, for instance, is food for the hearing. And paintings and beauitful scenes are food for the seeing. And books are food for the soul. And loving other people is food for the spirit. Many kinds of foods. You could think of some yourself.

Mr. Rogers: One wonderful way of showing that you love people is being able to accept the food they give you. If you really like it and you can tell them so, that can give them a very, very good feeling. I think of these television visits as my way of giving to you. I'm glad that you like to be with us. Bye-bye.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] What if I were very, very sad / And all I did was smile? I wonder after a while / What might become of my sadness? What if I were very, very angry/And all I did was sit / And never think of it? What might become of my anger? Where would they go / And what would they do / If I couldn't let them out? / Maybe I'd fall / Maybe get sick / Or doubt / But what if I could know the truth / And say just how I feel? I think I'd learn a lot that's real / About freedom / I'm learning to sing a sad song when I'm sad / I'm learning to say I'm angry when I'm very mad / I'm learning to shout / I'm getting it out / I'm happy learning exactly how I feel inside of me / I'm learning to know the truth / I'm learning to tell the truth / Discovering truth will make... Me... Free.

Mr. Rogers: I was just thinking, I wonder if King Friday and Lady Elaine sometimes just get jealous of each other or something. If they'd just talk about how they feel instead of acting silly, everyone would be alot happier. Well you and I know that WE don't have to act like they do. No, we don't! And that can give us a very good feeling.

Mr. Rogers: Doesn't it feel good when you're just about to do something you know is wrong and you decide to do something else? Something that won't hurt you or anybody else? Doesn't that feel great? You know you're really growing then.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [Lady Elaine is having a "found" objects exhibit] First, the Westwood sign.
Mayor Maggie: I claim it.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You claim it? Okay, here you are.
[Refuses to let go as Mayor Maggie tries to take it]
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Say "thank you'.
Mayor Maggie: You didn't say "please' when you took it!
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh, I'll say it right now. Please?
Mayor Maggie: Thank you!

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [Lady Elaine has a "found" objects exhibit] Okay now I'll get the next one.
[Exits then enters carrying a refrigerator]
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: This is a heavy thing. Here it is, a fine, fine refrigerator.
Edgar Cooke: I claim it!
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I'll say please.
Edgar Cooke: [singing] Thank you, and please don't take it again. I have to go back to the kitchen and cook.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Okay, take it, toots.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [Lady Elaine has a "found" objects exhibit] Here is a fine block-rocker.
Cornflake S. Pecially: I claim it!
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Please?
Cornflake S. Pecially: Thank you.
[Takes the rocker]
Cornflake S. Pecially: I've got to get back to work. I'll take it... I'm gonna take it.
King Friday XIII: Just as I must get back to MY royal work, Fairchilde!
Mayor Maggie: Looks like yours may be next, King Friday.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Now for the last part of the exhibit...
King Friday XIII: My crown?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Your FLYING crown. It's yours when you catch it, Friday. No need to thank me. Ha ha ha ha!

Lady Aberlin: Thank you, Trolley, your wind making is very consistant.

Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: My friend has a three-cornered one on right now.
[Lady Elaine is wearing a Coloniel-style wig]
King Friday XIII: All I see is a wig.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Good, at least you know a bigwig when you see one, Friday.

King Friday XIII: Everyone MUST wear a three-cornered one.

Prince Tuesday: I could knock down people or cars or houses, because of my Superfunnel!
Lady Aberlin: Well I hope you'll be careful.
Prince Tuesday: Everybody else better be careful, because I'm the strongest in the world!
Lady Aberlin: I guess sometimes you'd really like to be the strongest in the world, wouldn't you?
Prince Tuesday: With my Superfunnel, I can do anything. I gotta take my books and go to school.

Prince Tuesday: And here I go.
[King Friday XIII's fanfare plays]
Prince Tuesday: See? Even the trumpets play when I leave.
King Friday XIII: [Enters] Niece Aberlin, I presume?
Lady Aberlin: Correct as usual, Uncle Friday. I wondered why those trumpets were playing.
King Friday XIII: My royal fanfare, of course.
Lady Aberlin: Prince Tuesday thought they were for him.
King Friday XIII: Some days Prince Tuesday thinks everything is for him.

Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Have you been having some dreams about monsters, Prince Tuesday?
Prince Tuesday: Yes, sometimes. But my Superfunnel will take care of everything! I could make this whole place fall down if I wanted to.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Oh, what would happen to all of us?
Prince Tuesday: I might save you with my Superfunnel!
Ana Platypus: Or I could fly in and save you with my Super-skirt.
Prince Tuesday: Your Super-skirt? How does that work?
Ana Platypus: Well I just put on my Super-skirt and I can fly anywhere I want to. And I can save anybody from all the scary things.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Well I hope somebody would save me. Because I think that all this is pretty scary talk.
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Yes, it can be scary for some to hear about monsters and super things, that's for sure.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [Presents some model dinosaurs] But the real ones are much bigger than these models.
Lady Aberlin: I know, and they lived a long, long time ago. And nobody in our world has ever seen one.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: No. Not yet.
Lady Aberlin: What did you say?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh, uh, I was just talking to myself.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: My Boomrang Toomerang Soomerang is the most powerful of all.
Lady Aberlin: Oh Lady Elaine, we all know you're powerful. You just keep having to prove it to yourself.

Lady Aberlin: Lady Elaine Fairchilde asked me to bring these for you.
[Presents a paper chain]
Prince Tuesday: I didn't know Auntie Lady Elaine would really help us.
Lady Aberlin: She loves you, Tuesday.
Prince Tuesday: Sometimes she scares people.
Lady Aberlin: Well... I don't think she means to.

Eric Kloss: Joyce, would it be all right if I played this machine out into the room so I could play it for Fred?
Joyce Broadus: I think it'll be okay. There's not too many people in the room right now. But how about if I let you know if it becomes a problem?
Eric Kloss: Okay, please do.

Prince Tuesday: If I wanted to, I could take my Superfunnel and knock down this whole museum.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: And then what would happen?
Prince Tuesday: I'd take my Superfunnel and build it right back up again.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You think you're pretty super, don't you?
Prince Tuesday: I can do anything real strong. My Superfunnel is better than anything!
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You think it's better than my Boomerang Toomerang Soomerang, don't you?
Prince Tuesday: Well it's just as good. I think.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I suppose you think you could even tame a dinosaur?
Prince Tuesday: There aren't any dinosaurs anymore.
[pause]
Prince Tuesday: Are there?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I'm not talking.

Ana Platypus: I've got my Super-skirt.
X the Owl: Well your Super-skirt is very nice, but it's just pretend, you know.
Ana Platypus: I know. But how did you learn to fly?
X the Owl: Well I just practiced and made my wings go like this.
[Flaps his wings]
Ana Platypus: And then what?
X the Owl: And then I just did it harder and harder and then little by little I learned.
[Ana begins flapping her arms]
X the Owl: Um careful, Ana, I don't want you to...
Ana Platypus: I think I'm flying!
X the Owl: No, you're FALLING!

X the Owl: I think that's enough about flying for today. Now Ana, you promised that you'd show me how to walk better. You know, birds don't walk very well and platypuses do.
Ana Platypus: Oh yes, I can walk real well. Come on, I'll show you. But since you're a bird, you might not be able to learn right away.

Mr. Rogers: We don't waste food or orange juice in this place. No sir.

King Friday XIII: I have looked everywhere for you, Handyman.
Handyman Negri: Didn't you know I was out here in the garden?
King Friday XIII: Why would you be?
Handyman Negri: Well, I was carrying out your assignment.
King Friday XIII: What assignment?
Handyman Negri: To arrange your miniature animal display.
King Friday XIII: Yes?
Handyman Negri: You know, here in this special display area in the garden. Don't they look fine?
King Friday XIII: I said in the special display area BEHIND the castle garden. You know that special room right behind the garden here.
Handyman Negri: Oh no.
King Friday XIII: Oh yes.
Handyman Negri: Oh sire, I'm sorry. I thought you said IN the garden.
King Friday XIII: BEHIND the garden is different from IN the garden, Handyman.
Handyman Negri: I made a mistake, sire.
King Friday XIII: You have several minutes to rectify it.

Queen Sara Saturday: I must say it was quite a start at first. I was out on my back balcony looking for birds, when all of a sudden I noticed this large creature.
Handyman Negri: A dinosaur?
Queen Sara Saturday: Well it was much to big for a yellow-bellied sapsucker.

Audrey Duck: [King Friday has just ordered a major poetry reading] What are we gonna do?
Audrey Paulifficate: What he asks, I suppose.
Audrey Duck: But it's just a little, teeny poem.
Audrey Paulifficate: But it has queens and kings in it, and that's what he cares about.
Audrey Duck: I know, but...
Audrey Paulifficate: No buts about it.

Daniel Striped Tiger: B is for Buck, and D is for Duck.
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Very good.
Ana Platypus: And C is for Kangaroo!
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Um not quite, Ana. It sounds like it might be a C, but K is for Kangaroo.
Ana Platypus: Oh! Why did I have to make that mistake?
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Because you're learning, dear. Everyone makes mistakes while they're learning something. In fact, everyone makes mistakes sometimes.

Audrey Duck: I think King Friday has made a mistake.
Prince Tuesday: My daddy doesn't make mistakes.
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Oh Tuesday, your daddy is a human being as well as a king. And all human beings make mistakes once in a while.

Audrey Duck: [singing] Audrey, Audrey/I think it's nice to be an Audrey/Sometimes/ I think it's nice to be myself.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] Freddy, Freddy/ I think it's nice to be a Freddy/Sometimes/I think it's nice to be myself.

Chuck Aber: Oh Lady Elaine, you're a card.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: And sometimes I'm right. Not so, Aberlin?
Lady Aberlin: That's right. Sometimes you're right, Lady Elaine.
[Trolley dings]
Lady Aberlin: You too, Trolley?
[Trolley dings repeatedly]
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh go on, you wheel sport.

Mr. Rogers: [after meeting a duck named Quinten; singing] Quinten, Quentin/He likes to be a Quentin/Sometimes/ He likes to be himself...
[Speaking]
Mr. Rogers: That wasn't the way it was. What was that song like?
[singing]
Mr. Rogers: Quentin, Quentin/ He thinks he likes to be a Quentin/Sometimes/He thinks he likes to be himself...
[Speaking]
Mr. Rogers: Or something like that but you can make up your own songs. Sure. With your own name in it.

Mr. Rogers: Daniel was wondering if he was a mistake because he didn't look or sound like any other tiger that he knew. Well, all tigers are different just like all people are different. And there is no person in this whole world who is a mistake. No matter how different a person may seem. Each person is fine.

Lady Aberlin: [Reading a sign] "Audrey Duck is not hiding out here".
Chuck Aber: What does that mean?
Ana Platypus: It means that Audrey Duck is not hiding out here. You don't see her anywhere, do you?
Chuck Aber: No. I don't see her.
Lady Aberlin: But when people are hiding, they usually can't be seen.

King Friday XIII: I wonder what Mr. Rogers would say about this.

Mr. Rogers: One time I met one of those people and he said that they had practiced for ten years to do dances like that. Ten years. Isn't that wonderful? That they care enough to do that? You know, there are times when you feel like dancing, but you're supposed to sit still or at least sit down. I wonder if we couldn't make up a... Sitting kind of a dance. Because sometimes you have such a good feeling that you have to move a little bit.
[singing]
Mr. Rogers: It's such a good feeling/To know you're alive/It's such a happy feeling/You're growing inside/And when you wake up ready to say/I think I'll grow 12 inches today/It's such a good feeling/A very good feeling/The feeling you know that you're alive... It's such a good feeling/To know you're in tune/It's such a happy feeling/To find you're in bloom/And when you wake up ready to say/I think I'll grow 12 inches today/It's such a good feeling/A very good feeling/The feeling you know that you're alive.

Mr. Rogers: It's a good feeling to be with you. It surely is. You know, at night when I go to bed, I think, "Tomorrow, I'll visit with him again". Mm-hmm. I do. I like you. And we will. Well, I'll go with my shiny shoes and be thinking of you. You always make it special for me by just you're being you. I like you just the way you are. You know that, don't you? See you tomorrow.
[Exits]

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I was wondering where you were.
Purple Panda: I went home to get some 4P.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: What in the world is that?
Purple Panda: It is not in the world. It is from Planet Purple.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You know what I mean. What is it actually?
Purple Panda: It is Planet Purple Plant Powder.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh. You mean it just blows stuff all over the place?
Purple Panda: It mists. 4P.

King Friday XIII: I have every confidence in your installation of confidence.
Handyman Negri: Thank you... I think.
King Friday XIII: Carry on.
[Exits]
Handyman Negri: [to self] Every confidence in my installation of confidence?

King Friday XIII: One last thing, Niece.
Lady Aberlin: Yes, Uncle Friday?
King Friday XIII: Being a king doesn't mean a thing to certain people.
Lady Aberlin: You mean Lady Elaine?
King Friday XIII: [Sadly] I do. And it hurts my royal feelings.
Lady Aberlin: I'm sure it must. But we will all work together and thank you, Uncle Friday, for remembering about Daniel's pounding board.
King Friday XIII: At least my memory serves me.
Lady Aberlin: It certainly does!

Daniel Striped Tiger: Talking to you is much better than pounding.

Purple Panda: [about his 4P sprayer] It helps things to grow.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Big things?
Purple Panda: Any size things.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: How about a squirt for my nose. I love my long nose and it hasn't grown much in years.
Purple Panda: It does not work on people, Lady Elaine, it is only for plants.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: How do you know it will work on the Big Thing then?
Purple Panda: I saw something growing out of it. I think it is a kind of plant.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You and your purple ideas.

Purple Panda: [sprays his 4P plant grower on some plants] Be careful, Prince Tuesday.
Prince Tuesday: I don't want to be careful.
Purple Panda: What do you mean?
Prince Tuesday: I want that stuff to make ME grow fast.
Purple Panda: Oh. Now I see what you are trying to do.
Prince Tuesday: Squirt it. Please squirt it right on me.
Purple Panda: It does not work on people, Prince Tuesday. It is only for plants and flowers and things like that.
Prince Tuesday: Oh no, and here I thought I was could get to be as big as Daddy.
Purple Panda: You can.
Prince Tuesday: How?
Purple Panda: Just keep growing the way boys grow. That is the way you will get to be a man.

Mr. Rogers: [riding on a bus] There's the children's museum.
Mr. McFeely: It looks like it's wearing a hat.
Mr. Rogers: Yes it does.
Mr. McFeely: There's a statue of Bach.
Mr. Rogers: He doesn't have a hat.
Mr. McFeely: But he does have alot of hair.

[Queen Sara is wearing a three-cornered hat over her crown]
King Friday XIII: Mayor Maggie and... Visitor, I presume?
Mayor Maggie: Almost correct as usual, King Friday.
King Friday XIII: What do you mean by "almost"?
Mayor Maggie: Well, the person beside you, your Majesty, is not a visitor.
King Friday XIII: You're not?
Queen Sara Saturday: I'm your wife, Friday!
King Friday XIII: Why Sara, where is your crown?
[sees under the hat]
King Friday XIII: You ladies play such jokes on this old king.
[laughs]

King Friday XIII: Why Tuesday, where have you been?
Prince Tuesday: Playing.
Queen Sara Saturday: We've been looking everywhere for you, son.
Prince Tuesday: How could you hear my voice?
Queen Sara Saturday: What do you mean, dear?
Prince Tuesday: How could you and daddy hear my voice with all those other voices?
Queen Sara Saturday: Parents know how to listen for their children's voices, dear.
King Friday XIII: That's just something that parents are able to do. I guess it has something to do with love.

Prince Tuesday: I think my mom and dad would like to see these people dance.
Chuck Aber: Well they could come when they get home.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: That's right, and of course if they don't come home, Prince Tuesday can come and live with me here.
Prince Tuesday: What do you mean if they don't come home?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well, you know people take chances when they go...
Chuck Aber: King Friday and Queen Sara ARE coming home, Lady Elaine.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I'm sure they will. It's just that I was trying to help, you know. Tuesday likes it over here and all.
Prince Tuesday: I think I'd like to go home now.

X the Owl: This is an OCS Moving Picture. Just look at it very carefully and you'll see the waves move.
[the waves in the picture start moving]
Chuck Aber: [X, Mr. Aber, Prince Tuesday and Handyman Negri watch with awe] Wow. I wanna get a surf board.
X the Owl: Yeah, some people like to swim in there. You have to be very careful, though.

Prince Tuesday: [about his parents] What if they don't come back?
Handyman Negri: What do you mean what if they don't come back?
Prince Tuesday: Well Auntie Elaine said some people don't come back and I can stay with her, and I just don't know what to think about it.
Handyman Negri: But your mom and dad are coming back. I'm getting the castle ready for them to come back.
Chuck Aber: Do you think this might be a good time to call them on the phone? Why don't we just do that. I'll go get the phone.
[Exits]
Handyman Negri: Tuesday, I don't know why Lady Elaine said what she did, but I know what that feels like. I remember one time when I was a little boy, and my mom and dad went away for a little while. I wasn't sure they were ever going to come back. Well my grandmother said they were. And they did.
Prince Tuesday: They did?
Handyman Negri: Yes, but I knew how scared I was for a while. I just wanted you to know that.

Daniel Striped Tiger: Has that ever happened to you?
Lady Aberlin: What?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Somebody forgetting you?
Lady Aberlin: Yes.
Daniel Striped Tiger: It has? Could you tell me about it?
Lady Aberlin: Well, it was my birthday party and my very best friend forgot to come to my party. I waited and waited for her to come to the door with a present.
Daniel Striped Tiger: And what happened?
Lady Aberlin: She had gone to her grandmother's house. I couldn't even get her on the telephone.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Was she mad at you?
Lady Aberlin: No. She just forgot.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Could you tell me again why you didn't come for me? One more time?
Lady Aberlin: I forgot. I was in such a hurry with my camera and my film... Does it make you feel like we're not really friends?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Kind of, but not I don't know why. But not really.
Lady Aberlin: You know we're friends, Daniel.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Yes, it seems like we just are.

Queen Sara Saturday: How can we feel so much love when we don't know what love is?

Lady Aberlin: [Lady Aberlin had accidentally forgotten about Daniel] I'm still so sorry.
Daniel Striped Tiger: I'm not as sad as I was before. Before you came and talked to me.
Lady Aberlin: Oh good.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Ugga mugga, Lady Aberlin.
Lady Aberlin: Ugga mugga, Daniel Tiger.
Daniel Striped Tiger: I'm ready to go to the castle now.
Lady Aberlin: I'm ready too.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Let's go.

Mr. Rogers: Here are some things that some children gave me and gave me a good suggestion to go with them. This is an empty milk container and they said it could be an apartment house. Good idea? This is an empty oats box. They said it could be a tunnel. What about that? And this is a cottage cheese container. It could be a lake. Let's just take these things to the sand table on the other side of the kitchen.

Mr. Rogers: Now I just make a fist and cover my fist with this.
[Covers his fist with hankerchief]
Mr. Rogers: Now watch what happens.
Bob Trow: Any magic words?
Mr. Rogers: You can say any one you want.
Bob Trow: Boomerang Toomerang!

Queen Sara Saturday: I just wanted you to know, Friday, that I really love you.
King Friday XIII: And may I say the same, Sara. You are a most satisfactory queen.
Queen Sara Saturday: Thank you, dear.

King Friday XIII: I expect respect, rhyming or not.

Elsie Jean Platypus: Lady Elaine has been saying poems to our little Ana.
Lady Aberlin: Oh, well that sounds pretty nice.
Elsie Jean Platypus: Not the kind of poems she says.
Lady Aberlin: What kind are they?
Elsie Jean Platypus: Well one of them goes like this: You have to be ready! You have to be ready! You have to be ready for school! For school! You have to be ready! You have to be ready! You have to be ready for school! If not, you'll be sorry!
Lady Aberlin: Ugh, that's terrible.
Elsie Jean Platypus: Dr. Bill and I think so too and we've tried to tell her.
Lady Aberlin: I'll do my best because it's really going to be such a nice school.
Elsie Jean Platypus: Well once the children find out for themselves then things will be happier.
Lady Aberlin: I'll say.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh hello there, Aberlin.
Lady Aberlin: Lady Elaine, I'd like to talk with you.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I don't have time. You all are starting that school tomorrow and I don't have any of these children ready.
Lady Aberlin: The children in this neighborhood were ready long before you started drilling them.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: What are you saying?
Lady Aberlin: I'm saying that I don't like the way you are frightening these children! You are telling them things that are just not true.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Two plus one equals three is most certainly tree.
Lady Aberlin: That's right, but Ana doesn't need to know that before she goes to her first day of school.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: No, she needs to know alot more than that.
Lady Aberlin: She already knows more than that. Ana knows that she's a growing platypus who wants to learn and be with other children. She already knows how to play lots of different things and what her favorite toys are.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I don't understand your "pedigojy".

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [on the phone with the king] Hello, Friday, I'm ready to talk turkey. I did *not* call you a turkey.

X the Owl: [Bob Dog has fallen from a ladder] Are you hurt, Bob Dog?
[Bob Dog howls in pain]
X the Owl: Does that mean that you are or you aren't?

King Friday XIII: I'm going to see that there are no further accidents here. I now make a new rule: there will be no more *play* in this neighborhood of Make Believe.
Mr. McFeely, Bob Dog, Handyman Negri: No more play?
King Friday XIII: No more play. Nobody may play *anything* *any more*.
Queen Sara Saturday: But Friday, that would be just impossible.
King Friday XIII: I will not have any more foolishness causing accidents. Is that understood?
Mr. McFeely, Bob Dog, Handyman Negri: Yes, King Friday.
King Friday XIII: And is it understood that there will be *no more* play in this neighborhood?
Mr. McFeely, Bob Dog, Handyman Negri: Yes, King Friday.
Queen Sara Saturday: We'll talk more about that anon.
King Friday XIII: You won't change my mind! Remember, no more play!
[trolley comes by]
King Friday XIII: Not so playful with your running, trolley! No more play in this neighborhood.

King Friday XIII: It gives me great pleasure to welcome back to our Neighborhood of Make Believe, the Museum Go Round and its curator, Lady Elaine Fairchilde, who knows so well how to talk eagle.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Talk turkey, Friday.
King Friday XIII: Oh, yes. Turkey.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Let's always talk turkey and play.
[everybody cheers]

Lady Aberlin: Wanting to learn is the most important part of learning.
Ana Platypus: I want to learn to read like my mom and dad.
Lady Aberlin: Well your teacher will help you learn to read, Ana.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: How can you learn to read without knowing all the letters?
Lady Aberlin: Give the teacher a chance, Lady Elaine! Incidentally, what as your first day of school like?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Fine. Oh, I had a wonderful time. The teacher had games for us to play and milk to drink. All sorts of treats.
Lady Aberlin: Did you know all your letters and numbers when you got there? Did you have to know everything?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Uh... Not exactly.
Lady Aberlin: Did you have a playground?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh what a fabulous playground we had. I used to pretend I was an astronaut and fly all over the place.
Lady Aberlin: And then when you grew up you got to be an astronaut.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Hmm... Do you think my playing about it had something to do with it?
Lady Aberlin: Knowing how to play well is one of the most important things of all in getting ready for the first day of school.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Okay, Aberlin, take this greenboard to Harriet Cow. She'll have some fine players coming to her school tomorrow.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Just look at all the displays I have inside. I've got dinosaurs and bones and antique telephones and bells and head rests and radiator covers. I mean what more could ask? I even have a television studio in here.
Handyman Negri: I'm just concerned about the space for the playground.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Nonsense. Who needs a playground anymore at school? There are too many important things to learn. Phooey with play.
Handyman Negri: Well that may be YOUR idea, Lady Elaine.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I've got the best ideas of all.
Handyman Negri: Okay well we'll let you know where we decide to put it.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Okay, but this is it, I mean I think...

Donkey Hodie: Boy, that's alot to do in three days.
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Listen, anything is possible in Someplace Else, Donkey.
Donkey Hodie: That's for sure.

King Friday XIII: [Deciding where to build a school] Will it be at the factory or the museum or the clock or the tree?
Lady Aberlin: None of those, Uncle Friday. We've decided to build the school at Someplace Else.
King Friday XIII: Someplace Else?
Handyman Negri: Yes, sire.
King Friday XIII: You mean my son will have to go Someplace Else to school?

King Friday XIII: You are one of the first of your kind to appear in this garden.
Mr. Skunk: I never thought I'd meet a king.
King Friday XIII: Wonderful things can happen everyday.

Lady Aberlin: I helped that smell go away.
Daniel Striped Tiger: By squirting another smell?
Lady Aberlin: That's right. A sweet smelling smell. Wanna smell?

Mr. Rogers: [singing] You are my friend/ You are special/ You are my friend/ You're special to me/ You are the only one like you/ Like you, my friend/ I like you/ In the day time/ In the night time/ Any time that you feel's the right time/ For a friendship with me, you see/ F-R-I-E-N-D Special/ You are my friend/ You're special to me/ There's only ONE in this wonderful world/ You... Are... Special.
[Speaking]
Mr. Rogers: Yes you are.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] Tree Tree Tree, Tree Tree Tree/ Tree Tree Tree, Tree Tree Tree/ We love you, yes we do/ Yes we do, we love you/ Tree Tree Tree, Tree Tree Tree/ Tree Tree Tree, Tree Tree Tree.

Chuck Aber: If we can all talk and think and feel peace, we'll all be the better for it.

King Friday XIII: I have decided to hold a drawing contest.
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: A drawing contest?
King Friday XIII: Yes. Do you like the idea?
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Not usually, King Friday.
King Friday XIII: What do you mean?
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: Well because everyone has different talents and everyone's drawings are different. So art contests are impossible to judge.
King Friday XIII: I will be the judge.

Daniel Striped Tiger: So if somebody calls and it's the wrong number, you say you're sorry?
Audrey Paulifficate: That's right, Daniel.
Daniel Striped Tiger: But why do you say you're sorry if its not your fault?
Audrey Paulifficate: I really don't know. Does anyone have an idea?
Prince Tuesday: Maybe you're sorry for yourself because you had to answer the phone and you were playing.
Ana Platypus: Maybe you were wishing that somebody special would call, and then it wasn't your friend at all.
Audrey Paulifficate: You know, I really like you kids. I think I've learned alot more from you than you learned from me.

Lady Aberlin: [singing] It's the apple skin way to say I love you.
X the Owl: [singing] It's the apple skin way to say I care about you.
Henrietta Pussycat: [singing] Meow meow meow way/ Meow meow meow way/ Meow meow meow way...
X the Owl: Now Henrietta, you can't sing if your work suffers. I mean, I'm waiting here.
Henrietta Pussycat: [Grumbling] Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow.

Henrietta Pussycat: Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow.
X the Owl: Um, I really need to sit on this chair.
Henrietta Pussycat: [Angrily] Meow!
X the Owl: But I can't see my book as well as I need to, I mean, sorry but, could you move over?
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow!
X the Owl: Um, I-I really think you should.
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow like meow chair? Meow meow chair? Meow meow meow meow meow thank you meow meow meow meow.
X the Owl: All right, I was only making a little suggestion.
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow LITTLE suggestion?

X the Owl: [Henrietta had ran out after a fight between her and X] Oh, it's silly to get mad over a bowl.
Lady Aberlin: I don't think it was just the bowl, X.
X the Owl: What, then?
Lady Aberlin: Well the bowl, the chair, the bowl, the chair, the bossy way of being in charge.
X the Owl: Just because I was the expert?
Lady Aberlin: But Henrietta and I have cooked in our lives too. We wanted to work together, not just for you and the O.C.S. cook book.
X the Owl: We can cook together.
Lady Aberlin: [Sarcastically] Oh good, X, that would be more fun.
X the Owl: But anyway, she's not supposed to walk away like that. She has to stay here and talk.
Lady Aberlin: I think she told you how she felt. She told you when you did things that made her angry and then she walked out of here with a big, "Meow!" and took her cookies. She was pretty clear.
X the Owl: Yeah. oh, bother. I'm tired of having friends. It's just too much trouble.

X the Owl: [singing] Owl Correspondence School/ Dear O.C.S/ We do our lessons/ And we get a U or an S/ We hope for an S/ Oh, Owl Correspondence School/ Dear O.C.S/ Owl Correspondence School... We love you best/ We love you best.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] I like to take my time/ I mean that when I want to do a thing/ I like to take my time to get it right/ I mean I just might make mistakes/ If I should have to hurry up/ And so I like to take my time... To tie my shoes/ To eat/To get dressed/ To go to sleep at night/ To sing a song for you/ And everything I do/ I like to take my time/ I mean that when I want to do a thing/ I like to take my time to get it right/ I mean I just might make mistakes/ If I should have to hurry up/ And so... I like to take... My... Time.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] There are many ways to say I love you/ There are many ways to say I care about you/ Many ways/ Many ways/ Many ways to say... I love you/ Cleaning up a room can say I love you/ Hanging up a coat before you're asked to do it/ Drawing special pictures for the holidays/ And making plays/ You'll find many ways to say I love you/ You'll find many ways to understand what love is/ Many ways/ Many ways/ Many ways to say... I love you.

[repeated line]
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Boomerang, Toomerang, Zoomerang.

[repeated line]
King Friday XIII: No buts about it.

Robert Redgate: And now, here's Friendly Frank, your weather porpoise. The porpoise with a purpose.
Friendly Frank the Porpoise: [singing] In Bubbleland, the temperature is prefection/ The barometric pressure is just right/ The air is still today without direction/ And naturally there is no wind in sight/ There's never any trouble here in Bubbleland/ The weather's always beautiful and clear/ The sun shine is just enough/ The tests are not too tough/ The stars and clouds add nothing to our fears/ So there's never any trouble here in Bubbleland/ The sea is always calm/ The waves our nil/ Our bubbles are at home right here in Bubbleland/ The sheer perfection of it... Makes... Us... Thrill!
[Speaking]
Friendly Frank the Porpoise: As usual, the weather is perfect today.
Hildegarde Hummingbird: What about tomorrow, dear?
Friendly Frank the Porpoise: Tomorrow will be perfect too.

Daniel Striped Tiger: Do you know any knock-knock jokes?
Lady Aberlin: Yes, I know one: knock knock.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Who's there?
Lady Aberlin: Ivan.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Ivan who?
Lady Aberlin: *I've an* everlasting love for you.
[they laugh]

Daniel Striped Tiger: I think I just made one up: knock knock.
Lady Aberlin: Who's there?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Eyme-Sa-Hap.
Lady Aberlin: Eyme-Sa-Hap who?
Daniel Striped Tiger: I'm so happy I could sing. La da da da.
[they laugh]

Daniel Striped Tiger: [they're blowing bubbles] They're not orange and black.
[Clemmons tries]
Daniel Striped Tiger: They look about the same.
François Clemmons: You see? Mine weren't black and yours weren't orange and black.
Daniel Striped Tiger: But we're different colors, you and I. Why are our bubbles the same?
François Clemmons: Because bubbles don't have anything to do with the outside of us. It's our breath from the inside that help make the bubbles.

Daniel Striped Tiger: Mr. Clemmons, why is everybody so different on the outside and so similar on the inside?
François Clemmons: I don't know. We do look very different, but we have many of the same feelings.
Daniel Striped Tiger: I get sad sometimes. Do you?
François Clemmons: Of course I do.
Daniel Striped Tiger: And I get real happy sometimes. Do you?
François Clemmons: I certainly do. And do you know one of the reasons I'm happy right now?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Why?
François Clemmons: Because I enjoy talking about serious things with you. And because I've just decided what to be in the opera: a porpoise.

Swan: [singing] I will help you/ The swans and the beavers will help you.
Lady Aberlin: [singing] What a gracious swan you are.
Swan: You're like a swan yourself, young lady/ You're like a beautiful swan yourself.
Lady Aberlin: That's the nicest thing a swan has ever said to me/ That I was like a swan.

Farmer Reardon: [singing] What a nice cow you are, Priscilla/ What a nice cow you are/ A dear little girl cow.
Pricilla Cow: [singing] Please, Farmer, please, I'm trying to be something else/ Can't you see?
Farmer Reardon: [Speaking] A potato bug?
Pricilla Cow: Do I look like one already?
Farmer Reardon: Of course not. You'll always be a cow, Priscilla.
Pricilla Cow: But I don't wanna be a cow. I wanna be... Groovy.
Farmer Reardon: Well...
[singing]
Farmer Reardon: Have you never heard of a groovy cow? A boovy cow? A soothy cow? Is there no such thing as a moooooovie cow? Have you never heard of such?
Pricilla Cow: [singing] No, there's no such thing as a groovy cow/ A boovy cow/ A soothy cow/ And I've never heard of a moooooovie cow/ No, I've never heard of such.

Marilyn Barnett: [Repeated line] Hi, Fred, do you have time for some exercises today?

Robert Redgate: That's the good news, and now for the very good news.
[Fanfare plays]
Robert Redgate: The National Bubble Chemical Company has today announced its newest environmentally safe propellant product, Spray Sweater. The ultimate protection for your precious bubbles. Until today, we've always had to knit or buy old fashioned, regular sweaters to protect our bubbles. But now, Spray Sweater makes it easy for everyone. All you have to do is put those Spray Sweaters around your favorite bubbles and they'll be safe. Spray Sweater, the absolute ultimate in bubble protection.
Lady Aberlin: [singing] It's a fraud/ It's a fraud/ There's nothing in this can but just plain air/ There's no way that a sweater could come from there/ It's a fraud/ I tell you, it's a fraud!
Robert Redgate: What's going on?
Lady Aberlin: The chemical folks pulled the wool over you. Let me show you.
[Sprays a can of Spray Sweater. Nothing but air escapes]
Lady Aberlin: You see?
Robert Redgate: This is highly irregular.

Robert Redgate, Lady Aberlin, Friendly Frank the Porpoise: [all singing together, while dancing] There's never never never never any trouble here in Bubbleland. Bubbleland. Bubbleland/ There's never never never never anything but joy right here...
Hildeguarde Hummingbird: Well I'm just trying to do my job. Why won't you believe me?
Robert Redgate, Lady Aberlin, Friendly Frank the Porpoise: Because we don't want to.
[They continue dancing]

Robert Redgate: This is about one of your products...
W. I. Norton Donovan: We pay you to sell it on television, not to ask questions about it.
Lady Aberlin: You don't pay ME to sell it, W.I. Norton Donovan, I make real sweaters and I've never known one to come out a can.
W. I. Norton Donovan: How about a bottle?
Lady Aberlin: Not a bottle either. It takes time to make sweaters. And your Spray Sweater is a fraud!
W. I. Norton Donovan: How dare you. These cans are selling very well.
Lady Aberlin: [singing] But there's nothing in this can/ No, there's nothing in these cans to make a sweater/ No needles. No yarn. No skill of any kind to make a sweater/ No heart/ No, no spray can can make a sweater/ All that's in these cans is just plain air/ All that's in these cans is just plain air/ All that's in these cans/ All that's in these cans/ All that's in these cans is just plain air! So there!
W. I. Norton Donovan: [singing] Hee-hee. Hee-hee. It's our company's little joke/ And you were the first to find it out/Hee-hee. Hee-hee/It's our company's little joke/And you were the first...
Robert Redgate: Bubblewitness news is always the first.

W. I. Norton Donovan: [singing] Now I can finally use my initials/ Now I can finally be me/ Goodbye, W.I. Norton Donovan
[Enters a giant Spray Sweater bottle and emerges looking very different]
W. I. Norton Donovan: Hello, W.I.N.D. Hee hee hee hee hee!

King Friday XIII: You seem sad to begin with.
Bob Dog: Oh yes, we were.
Lynn Swann: We lost our game today, King Friday.
King Friday XIII: Oh, did you do your best, Mr. Swann?
Lynn Swann: I think we did, don't you, Bob Dog?
Bob Dog: Yeah, I guess so.
King Friday XIII: Well then, you won. All you need to do is your best and you've won in my book.
Lady Aberlin: Why Uncle Friday, that is one of the most wonderful things I've ever heard you say.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I want to win this contest. What did you say the prize would be, Friday?
King Friday XIII: I didn't say. And anyway, if you do your best, you will have won the best prize of all.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: What's that?
King Friday XIII: The good feeling about having done well.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: But I want the prize.
King Friday XIII: Well, hope for the best. It may be all or nothing.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh Friday, you and your surprises. I don't know why I always fall for them.

Mr. Rogers: Do you know what zippers were called when they were first invented? Clasp-lockers. They were called that for about 30 years before people started calling them zippers.

Prince Tuesday: Bye Daddy, you are a good king... I think.
King Friday XIII: Oh, why thank you, Tuesday.

Chuck Aber: I am the associate mayor of care.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh well have you come to care for me?

Prince Tuesday: I want to call them now.
King Friday XIII: But we're not there yet, son.
Prince Tuesday: I know but I want to tell them that you're coming.
Lady Aberlin: Just a moment, I'll get the phone.
King Friday XIII: Um... Well I... I'm not sure I see the point.
Queen Sara Saturday: Tuesday may want to check on the number, dear.
Chuck Aber: And he may want to hear what the people sound like where you're going.
Prince Tuesday: You're both right.
Lady Aberlin: [brings the phone] Here go, Tuesday, would you like me to make the call?
Prince Tuesday: I'd like to do it. Operator? I'd like to call 111-222-3334. Hello? This is Prince Tuesday. Yes, that's my parents. Well they're going to come to your place to teach and then they're going to come home. You take good care of them, okay? Yes. Well they're the only mom and dad I have. Okay, then. Bye. Thank you, Lady Aberlin.
Lady Aberlin: You're welcome, Tuesday.
King Friday XIII: Thank YOU, Tuesday, for wanting us to have good care too.

X the Owl: Henrietta, I'm sorry, but you should have told me how you felt.
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow did tell meow. Meow meow am telling meow. Meow meow mad. Meow don't like bossy friends meow. Meow go away!
X the Owl: Well I'm sorry and I'll try not to beso bossy anymore, okay? Let's have some cookies and put the whole thing aside.

Daniel Striped Tiger: [concerning Prince Tuesday] Who's going to take care of him while they're gone?
Mayor Maggie: Mr. Aber will.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Does he have to go to Mr. Aber's house?
Mayor Maggie: No, Mr. Aber will be coming here for a few days.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Alot of children have to go to other people's houses when they get night and day care.
Mayor Maggie: I know and that's important to talk about, isn't it?
Daniel Striped Tiger: It surely is, Mayor Maggie, anything that people feel really strongly about is important to talk about.
Mayor Maggie: Why do you think that is, Daniel?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Well I guess if you talk about something, it doesn't seem so scary.
Mayor Maggie: Not so scary as when you sit and think about it al by yourself.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Yes. All by yourself times can be pretty scary.
Mayor Maggie: Especially when there isn't someone you love real close by.
Daniel Striped Tiger: But you can call and ask them to come and be with you. And sing to you.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] I'm taking care of you/ Taking good care of you/ For once I was very little too/ Now, I take care of you.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] You can make believe it happens, or pretend that something's true/ You can wish or hope or contemplate a thing you'd like to do/ But until you start to do it, you will never see it through/ 'Cause the make believe pretending just won't do it for you. You've... Got... To... Do it. Every little bit/ You've got to do it/ Do it. Do it. Do it/ And when you're through/ You can know who did it/ For you did it. You did it. You did it/ If you want to ride a bicycle and ride it straight and tall/ You can't simply sit and look at it/ 'Cause it won't move at all/ But it's you who have to try it, and it's you who have to fall, sometimes/ If you want to ride a bicycle and ride it straight and tall, you've... Got... To do it/ Every little bit/ You've got to do it/ Do it. Do it. Do it. And when you're through/ You can know who did it/ For you did it. You did it. You did it. YOU did it.

[Ana doesn't get to participate in a wedding]
Ana Platypus: What am I going to do about it?
Lady Aberlin: You'll go with your mom and dad.
Elsie Jean Platypus: And you'll be able to sit with us and watch the whole thing.
Ana Platypus: But I want to be in it!
Elsie Jean Platypus: No, dear, you may go to it, but not be IN the wedding.
Ana Platypus: [Near tears] Oh phooey! You say no, but I want you to say yes.
[Exits]
Lady Aberlin: She really is determined, isn't she?
Elsie Jean Platypus: She certainly is and it's really hard when a mother has to say no.
Lady Aberlin: We just can't have everything we want in life, can we? But learning to cope with disappointments when we're young helps us to deal with other disappointments when we're grown up.
Elsie Jean Platypus: Oh, that is so helpful for me to hear, dear. As I say, it's very hard for a mother to say no when her child wants something so much.

Lady Aberlin: Let's go see Lady Elaine Fairchilde.
James Michael Jones: I'd be glad to meet that lady. I've heard many things about her.
Lady Aberlin: Well she's a pretty famous person.
James Michael Jones: Famous, I understand. Pretty, I haven't heard.

James Michael Jones: I trust that you like this Sanctum Sanctorum?
Lady Aberlin: Is that what this place is called?
James Michael Jones: That's what I call it.
Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: I call it The Wedding Place.

Lady Aberlin: I was on my way to Southwood, Elsie Jean, and I thought I heard you calling.
Elsie Jean Platypus: I know, and I am a tiny bit upset.
Lady Aberlin: What's the matter?
Elsie Jean Platypus: It's Ana. She says she wants to be in the wedding. She says that Daniel is the ring bearer, and Prince Tuesday is going to help hold the train, and you and Lady Elaine are going to be bride's maids, and she wants to do something.
Lady Aberlin: I can understand that.
Elsie Jean Platypus: But I just told her that everybody cannot be in the wedding.
Lady Aberlin: Well you and Dr. Bill and Ana are all invited, aren't you?
Elsie Jean Platypus: Indeed we are. But Ana is very determined.
Lady Aberlin: [Ana appears] Oh hello, Ana.
Lady Aberlin: We were just talking about you.
Elsie Jean Platypus: I told Lady Aberlin about you wanting to be in the wedding.
Ana Platypus: So?
Lady Aberlin: If everyone were in the wedding, Ana, there wouldn't be anybody to sit and watch it.

Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: [Daniel is having trouble being the ring bearer for the upcoming wedding; Betty is helping] There, is that better?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Well, the ring part is better.
Lady Aberlin: What other part is there?
Daniel Striped Tiger: The bear part. I just don't think I want to wear the costume.
Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: But you haven't even seen the costume, Daniel.
Daniel Striped Tiger: I know, but I want to look like a tiger.
Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: Well of course you do, Hon, you'll always look like a tiger.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Not in a bear costume.
Lady Aberlin: A bear costume?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Don't I have to wear a bear costume to be a ring bear?
Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: Oh gracious sakes no. You're thinking of a bear like an animal bear, aren't you?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Sure. And I'm a tiger and I don't want to be a bear.
Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: But that's not what a ring bearer is, Hon. You tell him, bride's maid.
Lady Aberlin: Bear-ER means somebody who carries something, Daniel. So a ring bearer is somebody who carries a ring. A boy can be a ring bearer and a girl can be a ring bearer and a tiger can be a ring bearer.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Oh. I don't have to look like a bear?
Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: Oh no, Daniel. You'll look like yourself. Only you'll wear a little suit.
Lady Aberlin: Just right for a tiger.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Oh I feel so much better. Thank you for explaining that to me.

Lady Aberlin: What's the matter, X?
X the Owl: Oh I'm really disturbed. I am just as disturbed as can be.
Lady Aberlin: Why is that?
X the Owl: Well just come on inside my tree ands I'll show you.
Lady Aberlin: I think this knothole is a little too small for me to get in.
X the Owl: There's a bigger door for creatures your size around the back. Now just come on in here and meet you inside. I tell you, I'm really disturbed.

X the Owl: [Lady Elaine had invited herself to X's tree in the middle of night and has scared X half to death] I was sitting on my perch getting ready to go to sleep when all of a sudden I saw this flash of light come into my room and there she was barging right in to where I was about to go to sleep!
Lady Aberlin: You came into X's tree, Lady Elaine?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I've been in here before.
X the Owl: But before I knew you were coming.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I just wanted some company.
X the Owl: But you could have called on the telecan to ask if it was all right to come.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I just thought it WAS all right.
Lady Aberlin: You mean you didn't knock on his door?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I forgot.
X the Owl: Well don't ever forget again because you really scared me and you made me angry.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [Daniel Tiger had just called for Lady Aberlin] Does Daniel want to talk with you too?
Lady Aberlin: Yes. Any idea why?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I did mention falling stars to him. But I doubt that would be it.
Lady Aberlin: We'll deal with that later, Lady Elaine, right now I need to tell you something quite directly.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: What is it, toots?
Lady Aberlin: This is X's tree. This is here he lives. This is where he sleeps. And anybody who comes into this tree needs to tell X that they're coming. Do you understand that?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You mean you're not supposed to walk into somebody's private place and flash your flashlight around and scare them and say, "Yoo hoo, I'm here". Is that what you mean?
Lady Aberlin: That's what I mean.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I think that's pretty clear.
Lady Aberlin: And you won't do it again?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I'll try not to.

X the Owl: Thanks for coming over, Lady Aberlin, you sure know how to help people and birds.
Lady Aberlin: I hope I can help Daniel Tiger.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: If I scared him, tell him I'm sorry. Looks like this is my night for saying, "Sorry, sorry, sorry".
Lady Aberlin: We all make mistakes, Lady Elaine.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well next time I sure will remember to knock on this tree.
X the Owl: And if I'm here, I'll probably invite you to come in.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Thanks, toots.
Lady Aberlin: See you tomorrow.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Okay, then.
X the Owl: Good night, Lady Aberlin.

Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: I'll never put this mask on in front of Carrie Dell again. Not 'til she's 21 or so.

Mr. McFeely: [Mr. McFeely had accidentally mixed up his deliveries] They told me that I didn't do my job well and it was my first delivery for them and I wanted to do a good delivery.
Mr. Rogers: Well you've certainly made alot of deliveries for me.
Mr. McFeely: They haven't been so bad, have they?
Mr. Rogers: Bad? Why you're so special to me I don't know what I'd do without you and your delivery service.
Mr. McFeely: Well I've made some mistakes for you too.
Mr. Rogers: Well who hasn't made mistakes in his work?
Mr. McFeely: I guess we all make mistakes sometimes, but those people made me feel so bad, they made me feel so small. Not worth anything.
Mr. Rogers: Maybe they were having a hard day too, Mr. McFeely.
Mr. McFeely: I guess so. Well I'd better get the tape back there. They said that if I didn't get it back to them in 10 minutes, they weren't going to pay me. I just feel so terrible about this mistake.
Mr. Rogers: Mr. McFeely.
Mr. McFeely: Yes, Mr. Rogers?
Mr. Rogers: One thing before you go, I'd like you to know how grateful I am for you.
[singing]
Mr. Rogers: There's only one in this wonderful world/You are special.
Mr. McFeely: Thank you for that. Especially today.

King Friday XIII: Miss Paulifficate, I presume?
Audrey Paulifficate: Correct as usual, King Friday.
King Friday XIII: Do you have my hose?
Audrey Paulifficate: I do, sire, here they are.
[She presents two garden hoes]
King Friday XIII: What are these?
Audrey Paulifficate: Didn't you ask for hoes for the garden?
King Friday XIII: I asked for a garden hose.
Audrey Paulifficate: But these are garden hoes.
King Friday XIII: A garden hose to give my bird a shower, Miss Paulifficate. Can't you see my bird wants a shower? How can I impress upon you the importance of listening?
Audrey Paulifficate: I DO try to listen, King Friday. After all, I'm your telephone operator most of the time.
King Friday XIII: I trust that you do that better than bringing me a hose.
Audrey Paulifficate: [Impatiently] I'm sorry, sire, I'll fetch the hose now.
King Friday XIII: I certainly hope so, and quickly. Mimus can't wait all day. Oh Mimus, here we are making life interesting, royal and plausible for all these creatures and what do we get? Hoes instead of hose. Nobody understands us, Mimus.

Yo-Yo LaBelle: Me thee me thee me thee, me thee me thee me thee me thee me.
King Friday XIII: Oh so you say.

Mr. Rogers: You know, the toughest thing is to love somebody who has done something mean to you. Especially when that somebody has been yourself. Have you ever done anything mean to yourself? Well it's very important to look inside yourself and find that loving part of you. That's the part that you must take good care of and NEVER be mean to. Because that's the part of you that allows you to love your neighbor. And your neighbor is anyone you happen to be with at any time in your life. Respecting and loving your neighbor can give everybody a good feeling.

Jay O'Callahan: They tried to get him out but they couldn't get him out because the king said it was trouble. And then the king knealt and smiled his leer of a smile. He had three brave knights who could do anything. He said, "Knight number one, get me out of the trouble". It was then that the first knight came forward. He was the Great Black Knight with the magnificent lance. As he rode forward, there was trouble in the bubble, because what if he stabbed the bubble and hit the king in the neck? Then there was trouble, trouble, trouble. But the king said, "Come on!" So the knight rode towards it as hard as he could and stabbed the bubble... And the lance flew into the air. Now there was trouble in the bubble, because the king was still in the bubble, and you can't rule a kingdom from a bubble. Trouble, trouble, trouble. "Knight number two!" And the second knight came forward. He was the Green Knight. His hair was green, his eyes were green, his very teeth were green. But you only noticed his sword. It was so sharp, it cut the wind and made it bleed. And so there was trouble. What if he took the king's head off? But the king said, "Come on!" And so the Green Knight sliced at the bubble and the sword flew into the air. Now there was trouble in the bubble, because the king was still in the bubble and you can't rule a kingdom from a bubble. Trouble, trouble, trouble! "Knight number three!" "Hooray!" They cheered for the third knight as he stepped forward. He was enormous, he was the Red Knight. He dressed in red and fought only with a golden chain. They had seen him defeat armies with that chain. So there was trouble, for what if he smashed the bubble and hit the king? But the king said, "Come on!" So the Red Knight lifted the mighty chain and he did SMITE the bubble. The chain hit it and bounced off. Now there was trouble in the bubble, because the king was still in the bubble, and you can't rule a kingdom from a bubble. Trouble, trouble, trouble.

Jay O'Callahan: It was then they all saw the 3 year-old girl up on the hill. And the girl ran all the way down and came over to the bubble. "Oh, what a beautiful bubble". Her father said, "Oh no, my daughter, its not a bubble, its trouble." "Oh no, father, its just a beautiful bubble". "It's not a bubble, its trouble. The king says so". "Father, its just a bubble. If you treat it like a bubble, it acts like a bubble. Watch," and the little girl reached out so slowly and finally, she pinched the bubble and it popped. "See? Treat it like a bubble and it acts like a bubble." And that's the story of the bubble that really wasn't trouble, it was only a bubble. Ha!

Lady Aberlin: [Mr. Caribou arrives] Oh, Randy S. Caribou, we were just having a serious conversation with Uncle Friday.
King Friday XIII: Mr. Randy S. Caribou, I presume?
Randy S. Caribou: Right you are, Uncle Friday.
King Friday XIII: Uncle Friday?
Randy S. Caribou: [Lady Aberlin whispers to him] Oh, I mean, correct as usual, King Friday.

Mayor Maggie: I'm still curious. In fact, I'm curious why Prince Tuesday's name is Tuesday.
King Friday XIII: [a fanfare announces King Friday; Enters] No time for formalities. Did I hear someone say she was curious?
Mayor Maggie: Yes, I did, King Friday.
King Friday XIII: I have cancelled all curiosity.
Mayor Maggie: But you can't tell people not to be curious and then expect them to...
King Friday XIII: I expect people to follow rules. Farewell, Mayor Maggie.
Mayor Maggie: Don't you want our regularly scheduled meeting, sire?
King Friday XIII: I have cancelled all meetings today.
Mayor Maggie: Oh sorry. I guess you won't get to see what's in here then.
[Presents a long, rolled up sheet]
King Friday XIII: What is it?
Mayor Maggie: Oh, um, I think that's being a bit curious, sire.
King Friday XIII: We shall not be curious. You and your whatever-it-is, may depart.
Mayor Maggie: Farewell, sire. Farewell to thee.
King Friday XIII: Remember, cancel all curiosity!

Lady Aberlin: I'll bet you really like being a grandfather, don't you, Grandpere?
Grandpere: Ah oui. Oui, oui, oui, oui, oui, oui.
Lady Aberlin: Oh. That's nice to say. Oui, oui, oui, oui, oui, oui.
Queen Sara Saturday: Well it's certainly easier than yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Isn't it?
Lady Aberlin: It certainly is. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. That's hard.

Mr. Rogers: [At an aquarium] Goodbye, Severum. Goodbye, Festivum. It's fun to know the names of things, isn't it?

King Friday XIII: Do you think you'd like to be in an opera, Mrs. Templeton?
Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: You can call me Betty, hon.
King Friday XIII: Well, Betty hon, do you know how to sing?

Chuck Aber: [singing] Didn't I see you back at home? Is there something you want?
Old Goat: Baaah. Baaah.

Princess Zelda: [In the "C' room] Oh, a clarinet... That makes music all by itself. It doesn't need me. Oh look at the vegetables.
Handyman Negri: Yeah, look at those.
Princess Zelda: Here's a cabbage, here's some corn, oh and here's my favorite: cauliflower. Look at that?
Handyman Negri: Isn't that beautiful?
Princess Zelda: Oh and look at the clarrots.
[Chuckles]
Princess Zelda: Clarrots. The carrots.

King Friday XIII: I was correct.
Lady Aberlin: About what, sire?
King Friday XIII: About cancelling curiosity. If Tuesday hadn't have been so curious, he and Little Panda would not be lost in space.
Lady Aberlin: Oh, they were just playing.
King Friday XIII: They were pinging!

Lady Aberlin: [Looking through a telescope] All those stars and in such a small instrument. What a sight...
King Friday XIII: Um...
Lady Aberlin: It's wonderful. It's just wonderful.
King Friday XIII: Um, ahem!
Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: You want a look, King Friday? It might even surprise you. You who have seen practically everything there is to see.
King Friday XIII: Yes...
Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: But of course there's always something new. Something to be curious about.
King Friday XIII: I am not curious! I am simply interested in giving you my appraisal.

King Friday XIII: Betty Okanak Templeton, I presume?
Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: You're right about that, King Friday. I always say if you wanna be right about something, you look at somebody you know and say their name and ask if you're right. Well of course you're right, of course you're correct as usual. After all, it's that person's name, it's not some multiple equation for extra carricular movements.

Mr. Rogers: You know, when I was a little boy and I went to bed before everybody else in the family, I used to be so curious about what the other people in the family were doing. Particularly I wanted to know what my mother and father were doing when I wasn't with them. I used to think alot about that. And I even asked them about it and they said that was their own time together. And while it was fine to be curious about it, there were some things that were for just grown-ups to do. And I would learn about them when I was a grown-up myself. And so I waited and I grew up and I became a grown-up myself. You know, I think we should have some make-believe.

Mr. Rogers: [Sung at the beginning of every show as he enters the television house] It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood/A beautiful day for a neighbor/Would you be mine? Could you be mine?/It's a neighborly day in this beauty wood/A neighborly day for a beauty/Would you be mine? Could you be mine?/I have always wanted to have a neighbor just like you/I've always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you, so/Let's make the most of this beautiful day/Since we're together, we might as well say/Would you be mine? Could you be mine? Won't you be my neighbor?/Won't you please? Won't you please... Please won't you be my neighbor?
[Speaking]
Mr. Rogers: Hi television neighbor. Welcome to this neighborhood.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] Some are fancy on the inside/Some are fancy on the outside/Everybody's fancy/Everybody's fine/Your body's fancy, and so is mine/Boys are boys right from the beginning-
[Speaking]
Mr. Rogers: When you're born a boy baby, you grow up to be a bigger boy and then a man.
[singing]
Mr. Rogers: Girls are girls right from the start.-
[Speaking]
Mr. Rogers: When you're born a girl baby, you grow up to be a bigger girl and then a woman.
[singing]
Mr. Rogers: Everybody's fancy/Everybody's fine/Your body's fancy, and so is mine/I think you're a special person/And I like your ins and outsides/Everybody's fancy/Everybody's fine/Your body's fancy and so... Is... Mine.

Mr. Rogers: [after unsucessfully making a rainbow] Well, Mr. McFeely knows alot of things about stuff like that, I'm gonna call him.
[Picks up the phone and dials]
Mr. Rogers: Mr. McFeely? Oh am I glad you're there. I've been trying to make a rainbow. I thought I could do it with a flashlight and some spray. Yeah, just water spray. Didn't work. Projector? Yes, I have a projector. Yeah, and some white paper too. Oh, could you come over with that now? Oh, I see. What about the gold? Mr. Aber is not there yet? Okay, nothing seems to be working out right today. All right well I'll see you a little later then. Thanks anyway.
[Hangs up the phone; Singing]
Mr. Rogers: What do you do with the mad that you feel when you feel so mad you could bite?/ When the whole wide world seems oh so wrong/ And nothing you do seems very right/ What do you do?/ Do you punch a bag?/ Do you pound some clay or some dough?/ Do you round up friends for a game of tag and see how fast you go?/ It's great to be able to stop/ When you've planned a thing that's wrong/ And be able to do something else instead/ And think, this song/ I can stop when I want to/ Can stop when I wish/ Can stop, stop, stop anytime/ And what a good feeling to feel like this/ And know that the feeling is really mine/ Know that there's something deep inside/ That helps us become what we can/ For a girl can be someday a woman/ And a boy can be someday a man.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] It's you I like/ Not the things you wear/ Not the way you do your hair/ But it's you I like/ The way you are right now/ The way down deep inside you/ Not the things that hide you/ Not your toys... They're just beside you/ But it's you I like/ Every part of you/ Your skin, your eyes, your feelings/ Whether old or new/ I hope that you'll remember even when you're feeling blue/ That it's you I like/ It's you yourself/ It's you... It's you I like.

X the Owl: [Lady Aberlin and Audrey Duck visit X the Owl] Are you going to a costume party?
Lady Aberlin: Why do you ask that?
X the Owl: Well I knew Henrietta was going off for the day but I didn't think she had to dress up funny.
Lady Aberlin: We don't understand you, X.
X the Owl: Isn't that Henrietta under that funny duck costume? I mean what a costume.
[Laughs]
Audrey Duck: Duck costume?
Lady Aberlin: X, don't you know Audrey Duck?
X the Owl: Yeah, she's Hen's good friend.
Lady Aberlin: This IS Audrey Duck.
X the Owl: Come on, don't try to kid me. She doesn't look like a real duck.
Audrey Duck: But I AM a real duck. And my name IS Audrey. And what you're saying is making me feel awful.
X the Owl: Uh oh... Uh, let me get a closer look at you. Oh am I ever sorry. You ARE Audrey Duck, aren't you?
Audrey Duck: Yes I am. And I'm going to visit my friends at school. Good bye!

Cat-A-Lion: Why don't you make up a poem, Audrey?
Audrey Duck: I don't want to interrupt this class anymore than I have.
Harriet Elizabeth Cow: But we'd be glad to hear a poem, Audrey. That's all part of learning.
Audrey Duck: Well, let me see then... It's been a very special day, with feelings that were sad and glad. But now we know for sure these things: that owls are owls and ducks are ducks and queens are queens and kings are kings.

King Friday XIII: And your most recent happening?
Lady Aberlin: I just heard a poem that ended with the lines, "Queens are queens and kings are kings".
King Friday XIII: Sounds like a superb poem.
Lady Aberlin: By Audrey Duck.
King Friday XIII: Perhaps we should announce a poetry reading and Audrey Duck can read her superb poem to everyone.
Lady Aberlin: It was just a little poem.
King Friday XIII: Little poem nothing. If it had queens and kings, it has to be a major poem. Handyman Negri?
Handyman Negri: Yes, sire?
King Friday XIII: Once you've completed your rearrangement of the animals, I suggest that you and Lady Aberlin begin at once to prepare a large festivity. A major poetry reading featuring Miss Audrey Duck, one of the finest poets in the land. You may arrange for major decorations, refreshments, a royal affair.
Lady Aberlin: But Uncle Friday...
King Friday XIII: No "but uncles' about it, Niece Aberlin. I am pleased to know that someone is writing excellent epic poetry these days. I will hear your report on progress the next time we are fortunate enough to meet. Farewell to you both.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [the neighbors have painted a portrait of Lady Elaine] I'm just kinda speechless, myself. As I said I didn't know anybody cared about me.
Lady Aberlin: If you had any doubt about that, Lady Elaine, you might have asked. After all, you have words and that's what words are for, aren't they, Robert Troll?
Robert Troll: Absolutely...
[Gibberish]
Robert Troll: ... Words.

King Friday XIII: And what is it you have to present?
Robert Troll: May I present... A portrait of the king by Daniel.
[Reveals a small picture of King Friday colored blue]
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I told him not to hand in that blue one. No one ever saw a blue king.
King Friday XIII: That's not true, Fairchilde, you've been seeing a blue king for the past few times. Ever since you messed up all my other portraits. Daniel's blue king is fitting and proper.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh honestly.

Prince Tuesday: I wanted you to come home, especially in the nighttime. And I dreamed that I couldn't find you - I mean, I dreamed about a little fish that couldn't find its mother and I cried. And then today I didn't care if you came back or not. And now Mr. Aber is going back to his home and, well it's always something.
King Friday XIII: Yes that's right, Tuesday. It is always something. We always have something to think about. And will always have people who will love us no matter where we are. Your mother and I loved you even while we were gone away, and you had people here who loved you too, and took very good care of you. I'm proud that you faired so well. I think you've grown these past few days. And I want you to know, all of you, that I am pleased with all of you.
All: Thank you, King Friday.

[repeated line]
X the Owl: Lady Aberlina, how in the world are ya?

Mr. Rogers: Hi, Television Neighbor. I'm glad we're together again.

Mr. Rogers: Anything worth while certainly takes a while.

X the Owl: You learn something old everyday.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: What have you been playing?
Chuck Aber: Well, you put this ball in a basket, and that's what it's called.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Ball in A Basket?
Lady Aberlin: Basketball, Lady Elaine.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh. You learn something new everyday.
Chuck Aber: And something old.

Mr. McFeely: [singing] If there's anything you want, if there's anything you need/McFeely's delivery brings it to you here with speed/Yes, our Speedy Delivery is a speedy delivery... Speedy Delivery to you.

Mr. McFeely: Speedy delivery!

King Friday XIII: What is the nature of your business today?
Mr. McFeely: This speedy delivery.
King Friday XIII: You may read it.
Mr. McFeely: It says, "To King Friday and Queen Sara Saturday, Neighborhood of Make Believe".
King Friday XIII: Oh well we'll need the queen for this reading. Sara dear, will you come here?
Mr. McFeely: Sheer poetry.
Queen Sara Saturday: Did you call, Friday?
King Friday XIII: Yes, I said, "Sara dear, will you come here?"
Queen Sara Saturday: Oh, that's lovely.

[there's a knock at the door]
Mr. Rogers: Oh, there's somebody knocking at the door.
Chef Brockett: Speedy delivery!
Mr. Rogers: Speedy delivery? Somebody is saying, "Speedy delivery", but it doesn't sound like Mr. McFeely to me. Did it to you?
[Calls out]
Mr. Rogers: What did you say?
Chef Brockett: Speedy delivery!
Mr. Rogers: Who do you think that sounds like? Chef Brockett?
[Looks out window]
Mr. Rogers: It IS Chef Brockett.

Mr. McFeely: [singing] That's what you'll get/That's what you'll get: a speedy, speedy delivery/A speedy, speedy, speedy, speedy, speedy delivery.

King Friday XIII: Anything is possible in make-believe.

Chuck Aber: [as H.J. Elephant III] Hello, Daniel. Hi, friends. I'm a toy and Mr. Aber makes me talk.
[as himself]
Chuck Aber: See what I mean?
Daniel Striped Tiger: Well if H.J. is a toy, am I a toy too?
Chuck Aber: You could be.
Daniel Striped Tiger: I never thought of that.
Ana Platypus: Am I a toy too?
Chuck Aber: You could be.
Prince Tuesday: Well I'm not a toy, I'm a prince.
Chuck Aber: You see, in make-believe, toys can be real if you want. Anything is possible in make-believe.

Handyman Negri: That story was just pretend, King Friday.
King Friday XIII: Well, so are we.

Betty Okonak Templeton-Jones: We wanted to help you some more with your assignment. After all, Carrie Dell was sleeping most of the time you were in Southwood and I just thought a little trip would be a nice thing today.
King Friday XIII: Um, I'm not so sure that I'LL be able to comply. You see, I can't have a... Uh, a baby bothering my important welcome today. I have some very well chosen words to say and a most impressive gift to present.
Cousin Mary Owl: We can always go someplace else, King Friday.
King Friday XIII: Yes.
X the Owl: I mean, I think I've done enough king watching anyway.
Cousin Mary Owl: You have the idea of what you can say about kings?
X the Owl: Oh sure. Kings say they have important things to do and they don't want babies around when they do them.

[repeated line]
Donkey Hodie: I'll say.

Robert Troll: H.J. Elephant III...
[Troll talk]
Robert Troll: ... Give me your ONE favorite color, okay?
H.J. Elephant III: I'd say it's pinkish-yellowish-brownish-orange.
Robert Troll: [laughs] Boy, no one has come up with that one, I'll tell you. I'm not even sure I can spell it.

Mr. Rogers: Hi, neighbor. How're you doing?

Mr. Rogers: Now I have one other tape of sounds that I'd like to play for you.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: To the Museum Go-Round, the purple way!
[they disappear]

King Friday XIII: You wish to know what to do with your Museum-Go-Round?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well, ummm.
King Friday XIII: You could put my picture on the roof and make the whole thing into a King Friday-Go-Round.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: That's what I mean by one of your ideas, Friday. And what is everybody supposed to do while your picture is going round and round?
King Friday XIII: Why they are to stand at attention and watch it, of course. So you like that?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Not very much. I want my exhibits to be fun for everyone, not just for kings.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: How much will it cost to fix the pipes?
Lady Aberlin: 3, 000.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh, that's a bundle. Wait a minute, I've got a great idea: sell the castle. Friday and all of them can live someplace else.
Lady Aberlin: I don't think they'd like that, Lady Elaine. How about selling the Museum-Go-Round?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I don't think *I* would like THAT.

[repeated line and usually song]
Cornflake S. Pecially: I'm a man who manufactures / Who manufactures chairs / I'm a man who manufactures chairs and every wares / I'm a man who manufactures.

Lady Aberlin: Oh boy. Oh girl.

King Friday XIII: [Prince Tuesday tries to sit on King Friday's large tricycle, falls off and starts crying] I thought I heard some crying in this garden. I'm sure I heard some crying in this garden. What is my large tricycle doing here?
Prince Tuesday: I can explain, Daddy. I...
King Friday XIII: Tuesday, I thought you were on your way to school.
Prince Tuesday: I was, Daddy, but then I saw your big tricycle and I just sat on it and I fell.
King Friday XIII: You know I told you that you are not to use my large tricycle, Tuesday.
Prince Tuesday: I know.
King Friday XIII: It's not your size and it could be very dangerous. Now what did I do the last time you rode my tricycle?
Prince Tuesday: You sent me to my room.
King Friday XIII: And so you will do the same.
Prince Tuesday: But I have to go to school.
King Friday XIII: You will go to your room immediately after school.
Prince Tuesday: Oh! That really makes me angry.
King Friday XIII: And it makes ME angry when you do things that could hurt you. Now off you go to school.
Prince Tuesday: Ohh!
King Friday XIII: That's right, off you go now. Well... My large tricycle. When a king says no, he MEANS no... Certainly does.

X the Owl: That's just nifty galifty.

Bob Dog: [King Friday and Handyman Negri were playing music by garbage cans] That sounds good.
Handyman Negri: Thank you. Thank you, Bob Dog.
Bob Dog: Yes. Garbage music.
King Friday XIII: I beg your pardon?
Bob Dog: Well, uh, music beside the garbage.
King Friday XIII: Oh, yes.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] Everything grows together/Because you're all once piece/ Your legs grow as your fingers grow as your hands grow as your arms grow as your ears grow as your nose grows as the rest of your grows/Because you're all once piece.

Handyman Negri: That's right, Trolley, time for your periodic check and cleaning. First Tuesday after the second Wednesday following the new moon in the third month of the Make Believe calendar...

Mr. Rogers: As I was walking down the sidewalk to come to visit you here, I saw Betty Aberlin and look what she gave me. You know what this is, don't you? An apple. A beautiful apple. It looks so nice and feels nice.
[sniffs]
Mr. Rogers: And smells so good, and I know it's going to taste good. But I won't eat it right away.

Chuck Aber: Is Henrietta all right?
X the Owl: I don't know what you mean by "all right", Mr. Aber. I just know that she doesn't want to play and she doesn't want to talk much at all, and she seems sort of sad. Is that all right or is that all left?
Chuck Aber: Sounds like a little of each to me.

Mr. Rogers: [reading from a book] "Another thing children learn as they grow is how to urinate and make bowel movements, B.M.'s, in the toilet instead of their diapers. Urine and B. M.'s come out of our bodies. They're things our bodies don't need."

X the Owl: Okay? Let's have some cookies and put the whole thing aside.
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow cookies meow for me meow Lady Aberlin. Meow are friends. Meow meow Aberlin! Meow here meow! Meow like meow cookie, Lady Aberlin?
Lady Aberlin: Oh sure, Hen. I'm so glad you and X are feeling better. Um, aren't you?
Henrietta Pussycat: X meow not meow friend.
Lady Aberlin: Oh Henrietta, I don't think you mean that, really.
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow was meow friend yester-meow. Meow will be meow friend tomorrow. Meow meow not meow friend today.
X the Owl: And just because of all that, she won't let me have a cookie.

Chuck Aber: How's the bird?
Audrey Paulifficate: Still in the hand, if you know what I mean.

King Friday XIII: At ease now, Parrot. You may address me as Your Most Royal Highness.
Parrot: That's cool.
King Friday XIII: Ah, you must be delighted to meet a real king, Parrot.
Parrot: You're a sweetie.
King Friday XIII: Ha ha, how kind of you.
Parrot: Hi, handsome.
King Friday XIII: You're a fine bird. With good taste, I suppose. But then, after all, when you really...
Parrot: Who's in charge here?
King Friday XIII: I beg your pardon?

Parrot: Take a walk. Take a walk.
King Friday XIII: McFeely, please do something.
Mr. McFeely: It's a parrot, King Friday, it says what people teach it.
King Friday XIII: Then teach it to say, "Correct as usual, King Friday. "
Mr. McFeely: But King Friday, it takes months...
King Friday XIII: McFeely, please?
Mr. McFeely: Okay. Now, um, now, Parrot, say this: say, "Correct as usual, King Friday".
Parrot: Ah, take a walk. That's cool.

King Friday XIII: [singing, to his wooden bird on a stick] Troglodytes Aedon/ My wren is my pet/Is my very royal pet. Greet it. Troglodytes Aedon/Meet my pet/ Troglodytes Aedon.

King Friday XIII: [Reciting "big' words to "Row Row Row Your Boat'] Propel, propel, propel your craft... Gently down liquid solution. Ecstatically, ecstatically, ecstatically, ecstatically... Existance is but an illusion.

King Friday XIII: [singing to his wooden bird on a stick] Mimus Polyglottos is my pet/ Mimus Polyglottos is my pet/ Mimus Polyglottos is my pet. Have you met my pet yet?

Mr. Rogers: I was just thinking. You know, if you had all the toys in the world and you didn't have any imagination about how you would play with them, those toys would just sit there doing nothing. And that would be no fun. Thinking up good things to do with what you have gives everybody a good feeling.

King Friday XIII: Cereal has no respect for royalty.

Lady Aberlin: [singing to the tune of "There Are Many Ways to Say 'I Love You'"] Making a fruit salad can say "I love you'.
Henrietta Pussycat: Cleaning up meow meow before you're asked to meow meow.
X the Owl: Making sure the fruit is washed without a spot. Uh, you missed a few, Henrietta.
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow meow meow meow meow. Meow meow meow meow.
[Angrily]
Henrietta Pussycat: Meow meow meow meow meow.
X the Owl: Well Henrietta I'm sorry but, uh, but you did.

Chef Brockett: [singing] I'm a chef/I suggest/That you all be very quiet/While I cook, you may look/But you must be very quiet/If you don't, then I'll "Shh"/And I'll "Shhhhhh"/For it's silence that I ask for in my kitchen.

Robert Redgate: Robert Redgate here with an up-to-the-second report. It seems there has been some sort of mistake with the new product from National Bubble Chemical Co. , their cans of air make wind instead of sweaters. If you have a can of Spray Sweater, please don't push its button.
[phone rings]
Robert Redgate: Robert Redgate here. You already have? Oh I see.
Lady Aberlin: [answers another phone] Betty here. You have? I see.
Robert Redgate: You've already let the air out too? I see, I'm sorry.
[Another phone rings]
Robert Redgate: Yes, well thank you. Yes, you have added to the wind.

Lady Aberlin: You hurt all of our feelings.
King Friday XIII: Well, uh, what will we do about it?
Lady Aberlin: What will YOU do about it?
King Friday XIII: Well... I know. Handyman, do you have your Ukulele handy?
Handyman Negri: Yes, sire.
King Friday XIII: I will need a royal Uke fanfare please.
[Handyman plays fanfare on his Ukulele]
King Friday XIII: Very good. I, King Friday XIII, do hereby make a new rule. The new rule is that everyone who had hurt feelings will now have good feelings.
Lady Aberlin: You can't order people to have good feelings, Uncle Friday.
King Friday XIII: I just did.

Yo Yo Ma: King Friday XIII, I presume?
King Friday XIII: Correct as usual, Mr. Ma.

King Friday XIII: This is a lovely day. Of course it would have been more lovely if we had flown here in the purple jet.
Queen Sara Saturday: Honestly, Friday, you have a one-track mind.
King Friday XIII: A one-jet stream mind, Sara.

Lady Aberlin: Ugga mugga, Daniel.
Daniel Striped Tiger: Ugga mugga, Lady Aberlin.

King Friday XIII: Niece Aberlin and Lady Elaine Fairchilde, I presume?
Lady Aberlin: Correct as usual, Uncle Friday.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Correct, but not always, Friday.

King Friday XIII: Niece Aberlin, bass violin player, I presume?
Lady Aberlin: Almost correct as usual, Uncle Friday.
King Friday XIII: What do you mean by "almost correct", Lady Aberlin?
Lady Aberlin: I am Lady Aberlin, that's correct. But I am not a bass violin player.
[Begins playing the bass badly]
King Friday XIII: But that is a fine instrument that I have provided for you. It was made by excellent instrument makers.
Lady Aberlin: But Uncle Friday, just because a person has a fine instrument doesn't mean that person can play it well.
King Friday XIII: It's a good beginning, however.

Mr. McFeely: Think before you throw something away, and don't buy anything you don't really need. That's my advice for today.

Audrey Paulifficate: Phone call for you, Sire, it's the new president of Old.

King Friday XIII: We want to ask your advice on something.
Prince Tuesday: What is it?
King Friday XIII: Whom would you like for a babysitter?
Prince Tuesday: Nobody.
King Friday XIII: Nobody? Why not?
Prince Tuesday: Because I'm not a baby.
King Friday XIII: Well of course you're not a baby. That's just something that people say.
Prince Tuesday: Well I don't want a babysitter.
Queen Sara Saturday: How about a night-and-day-care-giver, Son?
Prince Tuesday: Oh, well, that sounds good.

King Friday XIII: [discussing the chalk board for the new school] I don't understand it. She said she would be using a greenboard.
Lady Aberlin: That's right, Uncle Friday.
King Friday XIII: But in my school, we used a blackboard. I think she should use a blackboard.
Lady Aberlin: But alot of the newer schools are using green.
King Friday XIII: Oh, this newfangled stuff. What is education coming to? Even the pencil boxes have pictures on them.

Robert Troll: [singing] Oh, Shidely dum di mooley/Moodily dum di shid ze boom boom/Shidely dum di mooley tooley/Moodily troll di boom/Shidely, moodeley, moodeley, noodeley/Roodeley troll de boom.

Robert Troll: What's wrong with the prince? He-He isn't sick, is he? W-what's this about?
King Friday XIII: He told me he doesn't like himself.
Robert Troll: Aw, "doesn't like himself". It's not like him to not like himself-
[troll talk]
Robert Troll: King Friday.

Mr. McFeely: Do you have time to watch a surprise videotape?
Mr. Rogers: Of course. What's it about?
Mr. McFeely: Well it's about something I did in a car.

Ana Platypus: We want to play for you, King Friday.
King Friday XIII: And I suppose you want to play for Sir Thomas also?
Prince Tuesday: If we're good enough, sure.
King Friday XIII: You may play, but if you see Sir Thomas arriving, you must stop your playing. I don't want him to think we major in foolishness here.
[Ana, Prince and Daniel play music with their instruments]
Prince Tuesday: What do you think, Daddy?
King Friday XIII: Your playing is not fine enough for Sir Thomas to hear. And now who is arriving at this castle? Will the guests never stop?
Tommy Tune: I heard a rhythm band and I came running.
King Friday XIII: And who are you?
Tommy Tune: Tommy Tune.
King Friday XIII: Sir Thomas Tune?
Tommy Tune: Some people call me that.

Tommy Tune: [King Friday presents Sir Thomas with a royal crown that is too small for his head] Something tells me that this is an extra special wrist crown.
King Friday XIII: Wrist crown?
[Sir Thomas puts the crown around his wrist]
King Friday XIII: Is that the kind of thing you teach? Putting crowns on wrists?
Tommy Tune: Well, when they don't fit on your head and when someone has been kind enough to offer them to you as a present and, uh, you don't want to make them feel bad because they don't fit where they were meant to fit...
Prince Tuesday: Is that what international lofty generosity is all about?
Tommy Tune: Well, that's what I think it's all about.

Daniel Striped Tiger: I wish I could learn international lofty generosity.
Ana Platypus: I do too.
Tommy Tune: Oh, I can teach everybody EVERYTHING about international lofty generosity real quickly.
King Friday XIII: Everybody?
Tommy Tune: Oh sure. Everybody can learn to be generous and kind. You don't have to be a king or a prince to learn that.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I'll give you a rift on the accordion for that one, toots.
[Plays quick tune on accordion]

King Friday XIII: Perhaps I could listen to a few of these new ideas.
Prince Tuesday: Oh Daddy, would you come with us?
King Friday XIII: I will.count me in with the best of them.
Lady Aberlin: Oh Uncle Friday, sometimes you can be so kind.
King Friday XIII: And sometimes unkind, I know.
Lady Aberlin: That's what makes people angry with you. I guess you know that too.
King Friday XIII: Yes, I am aware of that, Niece Aberlin. I talked with Queen Sara about that.
Lady Aberlin: What did Aunt Sara say?
King Friday XIII: She reminded me that people can love you even when they are angry with you.
Lady Aberlin: Knowing that can help you to be kinder, can't it?
King Friday XIII: It most certainly can.

King Friday XIII: Some days are nicer than others, are they not, Miss Paulifficate.
Audrey Paulifficate: Yes, and some days you are kinder than others, King Friday.
King Friday XIII: Oh so you say.

Cornflake S. Pecially: [X the Owl is renting tools from Corny] The buckets are 6 for 1. Shovels 6 for 4. Buckets 6 for 1.
X the Owl: Um, how am I supposed to rent all these different things at once? I mean, it's confusing.
Cornflake S. Pecially: Well, first you think about it, and then if you need help I'll be right here to help you figure it out.
X the Owl: I think that buying is alot harder than selling, Corny.
Cornflake S. Pecially: Well it takes very careful thinking.
X the Owl: All the same, I wonder if it wouldn't be easier if people just gave each other the things they need instead of buying all the time and selling all the time.
Cornflake S. Pecially: Well in some places, it's like that, X. But in most places, people earn money for work and then pay that money for what they need.
X the Owl: Like shovels and buckets.

Mr. Rogers: I was just thinking, you know work changes things. And children can change things by doing a good job. Like changing the way a room looks by picking up your toys when your play is over. Or changing the way your plate of food looks by eating your food. Good work can make good changes and can give a good feeling.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [Holds a sign reading "Hey Sky! Please Rain" skyward] Hey, Sky! Please rain! Come on, can't you read? We need the water!

King Friday XIII: Nevertheless, I think I'll be wearing a broader smile when we have located the other crown. In the meantime, we shall wear our chef's hats and partake of the Brockett crown cake in antiscipation of seeking sucess.

Bob Trow: [Bob shows Mr. Rogers some wooden blocks set up like dominoes] Do you have a super-something to push these down with? You can't do this the way you did those. You need a super-something to push the first one down. There are some super-things right there. Make your choice.
Mr. Rogers: Well... 'Guess I better not use the paint.
[Picks up a funnel]
Mr. Rogers: How about a super-funnel?
Bob Trow: Good. "Fun with a funnel", we'll call it.

Prince Tuesday: Superfunnel! Super Tuesday! Superfunnel!

Mr. Rogers: [shows us a miniature construction machine] This is called a high-lift. See how high it lifts?

King Friday XIII: My father was a large man. 3 1/2 I believe he was.

Queen Sara Saturday: [looking through a telescrope] Oh! Why - Why... It's something very big. Something's coming! It looks like it could be a...
Handyman Negri: That's Chef Brockett, Queen Sara.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well, well, well!
Chuck Aber: I'm really sorry about last time...
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You're gonna be even sorrier about this time. Boomerang Toomerang...
Handyman Negri: Why don't you let him explain?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Soomerang!
[Aber's vacuum sweeper disappears]
Chuck Aber: Lady Elaine, what have you done?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: I have liberated one more vacuum sweeper.

Mr. Rogers: We dig out the potting soil, and now I'm all set. The pot and the seed, and I'm all set to do some potting. That sounds a little like "potty" doesn't it? Well, this is a little pot and I put some earth in it to plant this seed.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [singing] You're older today / You're older today / You're older than you were yesterday / You're older than I am / Much older than I am / It's your birthday / You're older today.

Mr. Rogers: [presents a cloth bag] Do you have any idea what I might have in this bag to show you? Not a live elephant, no. Not a big building. Some things that are pretty light.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] I'll be back / When the week is new / And I'll have more ideas for you / And you'll have things you'll want to talk about / I will too / I'll think of you when I'm not here / Cause thinking of people makes them seem near / The friends who know you love you cheerfully / I do too.

Mr. Rogers: [singing] Tomorrow, Tomorrow / We'll start the day tomorrow / With a song or two
[Holds up two fingers]
Mr. Rogers: One two / Tomorrow, Tomorrow / We'll start the day tomorrow / With a smile for you / Till then, I hope you're feeling happy / Till then, I hope your day is
[snaps fingers twice]
Mr. Rogers: Snappy / Tomorrow, Tomorrow / It soon will be tomorrow / And be our day / We will say / "A very happy Tomorrow to you".

Lady Aberlin: Lady Elaine Fairchilde, what have you been up to?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh, just a little mischief, dear.

Lady Aberlin: I'll see you later.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Not if I see you first.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Did you find X the Owl?
Chief of Discipline: He's not home at the moment.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well the minute he gets there, I expect him to come over here for his spanking.
Chief of Discipline: His what?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: His spanking. I have established a blanket policy at the factory: anyone who makes a mistake gets a spanking.

Mr. Rogers: Did you ever do something that your parents told you not to do? And when you did it, they got very angry and spanked you? Well if children bite or kick another person or hurt their brothers or sisters, their parents can get very frightened and very angry. It's important to remember that if you do hurt a little brother or sister and your mother or dad punishes you, that's not because your mom or dad loves the baby better. No, it's because the baby is helpless. And your parents want you to grow to be a good brother or sister.

Mr. Rogers: It's a responsibility to take care of somebody's pet like that. Do you know what responsibility means? It's a big word. But the first part of it, response, is like "answer". You know, when someone says hello to you, you answer that person and you say hello back to them. But when you're taking care of a dog, you need to answer, or respond when the dog is hungry and needs to go pee-pee or poo-poo. It's your responsibility to answer to the dog's needs. I like Barney, but before I said I'd take care of him, I had to think about the responsibility. And I wanna ask Mrs. Rogers if she thinks it's all right too.

Mr. Rogers: You can never go down the drain and you can never go up the sweeper.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Oh rats! Oh rats! Oh dinosaur rats!

Lady Aberlin: You look very happy.
Chuck Aber: Oh yes. I'm celebrating.
Lady Aberlin: Did you win a game?
Chuck Aber: No, we didn't win. As a matter of fact, we lost.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: Well then why are you so happy?
Chuck Aber: Because our team played better than we ever played before, even though we didn't win. We really tried hard and made some very good plays. Don't you think that's alot to celebrate?
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You've got a point there, toots.

Handyman Negri: Hi Edgar, how are you?
Edgar Cooke: [singing] I am baffled, Handy. I am confused.
Handyman Negri: Why are you baffled and confused?
Edgar Cooke: [singing] King Friday and his comet.
Handyman Negri: What's he want now?
Edgar Cooke: [singing] He wants a comet cake.
Handyman Negri: Oh, a comet cake. That sounds nice. A little cake that looks like a comet.
Edgar Cooke: [singing] But King Friday wants a life-size comet cake.

King Friday XIII: Farewell Aber and Elephant, may you suceed in life as friends and may your pleasures come to you in mutuality.
Queen Sara Saturday: Friday, you are so poetic.
King Friday XIII: I like to think so.

Dr. Duckbill Platypus: There are other things we have to use our family's money for right now.
Ana Platypus: [Crying] King Friday and Queen Sara used their money for Tuesday's bike. They must love him alot.
Dr. Duckbill Platypus: I'm sure they love him, Ana, but your mother and I love you too.
Ana Platypus: Well then, why don't you get me a bike?
Dr. Duckbill Platypus: It's a matter of money, Ana, it's not a matter of loving. We love you very, very much. But we can't afford to get you a bike right now. Do you understand?
Ana Platypus: I guess so, but not really.
Dr. Duckbill Platypus: Do you understand, Lady Aberlin?
Lady Aberlin: Yes I do, Dr. Bill. I understand you and I understand Ana. And it's something you both can keep talking about whenever you want.
Dr. Duckbill Platypus: That's bill-bill correct.

Chuck Aber: I guess we have to wait, huh?
Ana Platypus: It seems that's what life is all about.
Chuck Aber: What's that, Ana?
Ana Platypus: Waiting. Waiting for Lady Elaine. Waiting for my bicycle. Waiting for everything. That's what life is - waiting.
Chuck Aber: But there are things we can do while we're waiting.
Ana Platypus: What?
Chuck Aber: Well we can dance, sing, and know that sometime the waiting will be over. Would you dance with me, Ana?

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You weren't invited, Friday.
King Friday XIII: But I'm here.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: My theory is that men can't dance.
King Friday XIII: What about this little kingly tap?
[Tapes dances a small jig]
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: You simply confirm my theory, Friday.

Lady Aberlin: Where could that crown be?
Chef Brockett: Well it's not in this cake. I know that. And it's not under my hat.
Handyman Negri: Nope, it isn't there. It's not under my hat, is it?
Chef Brockett: No, it's not.

Lady Elaine Fairchilde: [about Prince Tuesday] One thing: I said I'd keep him if you all didn't make it back, Friday.
King Friday XIII: Oh Fairchilde, I can see how that might have been somewhat comforting, but very disturbing at the same time.

Queen Sara Saturday: We've always been noted for our crown storage, Mr. McFeely.
Mr. McFeely: How do you store your crowns?
Queen Sara Saturday: We wear them all the time.

Prince Tuesday: [King Friday and Queen Sara are going away to teach a course] You're not going 'cause I was bad one time, are you?
King Friday XIII: Of course not, son. If you were a bad person, we couldn't even think of going away. After all, when we go, you and your night and day care giver will be incharge of this castle. A large job.
Prince Tuesday: I see. And, are you going to wear your crowns when you go?
King Friday XIII: Oh yes. We always wear our crowns.
Prince Tuesday: Okay then. When will I be old enough to wear a crown?
King Friday XIII: When you become a man, Tuesday. And you're working on that right now.

Mr. Rogers: So King Friday and Queen Sara are going to go away for a few days. And they're going to get a night and day care giver to stay with Prince Tuesday. Did you ever have a babysitter or a night and day care giver? Did you like that person? You know, mothers and dads want to be sure that the person that comes to take care of you when they're out is someone who takes GOOD care. That is very important to moms and dads. In fact that's something you can talk to your mom and dad about: what babysitters and caregivers you really like and why. That's important talk. Because everyone has feelings about that.

Cornflake S. Pecially: Hello, Mr. McFeely.
Mr. McFeely: I've got some more rejects, Corny.
Cornflake S. Pecially: Okay... We'll do what we can with them. Maybe we can make them into dolls. See what you can do, Handy, would you?
Handyman Negri: Just a minute now, Corny, you've already asked me to do three things at once. I mean, do you want the assembly line built, or the labels put on or the boxes checked?
Cornflake S. Pecially: Well anything you can do to help I'd really appreciate.

King Friday XIII: There's only one of you, Fairchilde.
Lady Elaine Fairchilde: That's right, toots, aren't you glad?

Robert Troll: [Taking a census] How about you, H.J.?
[Troll talk]
Robert Troll: ... What's your favorite color?
H.J. Elephant III: Hmm... Pink.
Robert Troll: Okay...
H.J. Elephant III: And yellow. And brown. And orange.
Robert Troll: Wait, wait, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. Just one color. Just one.
H.J. Elephant III: Let me see... Oh, that's hard. I'll have to ponder, Robert Troll.

Robert Redgate: Hello, I'm Robert Redgate bringing you this o'clock addition of Bubblewitness news. All the news that's fit to speak, all the news that's fit to hear, all the news to bring you cheer right here in Bubbleland. Today as usual we have some good news and some very good news.

[Speaking]
Robert Redgate: Of course, they never would.

H.J. Elephant III: [Repeated line] Oh, me. Oh, my. Boomerang. Toomerang. Soomerang.

King Friday XIII: What an excellent thought this was of mine to have you build this mountain... I have another thought.
Lady Aberlin: Oh, you don't have another thought just today, do you, Uncle Friday?
King Friday XIII: Yes I do.
Lady Aberlin: Another thought?
King Friday XIII: Another thought.
Lady Aberlin: Well, um, what is it?
King Friday XIII: Since I like this mountain so much, I think it would be nice to have an opera which takes place on this mountain.

Horatio Potato Bug: [singing] I... Want to be... A Potato Bug.
Horatio Potato Bug: [singing] I... Am... A... Potato Bug.
Pricilla Cow: I... Want to be... A Potato Bug.
Horatio Potato Bug: Potato Bug. Potato Bug. Potato Bug.
Pricilla Cow: Maybe I'll run away from here/And then, I'll come back another year/'Cause I don't want to be a cow.
Horatio Potato Bug: Potato bugs, potato bugs, potato bugs right.
Pricilla Cow: I... Want to be... A Potato Bug.
Horatio Potato Bug: Potato Bug. Potato Bugs groove. Potato bug. Potato bugs groove. Potato Bugs groove, groove, groove.

Mr. Rogers: So you can make up all sorts of things and sing them. And you can call that operas.

Mr. Rogers: [Hides his face behind an object] Where's Mr. Rogers?
[Shows his face]
Mr. Rogers: Peekaboo!

King Friday XIII: [They have formed a team] We can play any game we want.
Lady Aberlin: Yes, but what?
King Friday XIII: Randy Caribou, what game would you like to play?
Randy S. Caribou: How about Antler Ball.
King Friday XIII: Antler Ball?
Lady Aberlin: How do you play that?
Randy S. Caribou: Well, you roll the ball with your antlers.
Lady Aberlin: With your antlers?
Randy S. Caribou: Yes, like this.
[Demonstrates]
Randy S. Caribou: Ha ha ha ha.
Prince Tuesday: But there's a problem with that, Mr. Caribou.
Randy S. Caribou: What's the problem, Prince Tuesday?
Prince Tuesday: Some of us don't have any antlers. We wouldn't be able to play.
Randy S. Caribou: Oh, that's right. I forgot. I thought we were all reindeer here for a minute. Foolish of me. Foolish!
Ana Platypus: You're not foolish, Mr. Caribou. You just think we're all reindeer because we're all on the same team.

Randy S. Caribou: [They're a team deciding what to play] We can't play Antler Ball. I'm the only one with antlers.
X the Owl: And we can't play wing-ding because I'm the only one with wings.
Lady Aberlin: Wing-ding? That sounds like fun. How do you play it?
X the Owl: Oh, you get this ball and you use your wings and you try to keep it up in the air for as long as you can, and if you keep it up for three minutes, you sing "ding ding ding' like that. It's fun, but you need wings for it.
Lady Aberlin: I was thinking we could play football, but not everybody on our team has feet.
Bob Dog: Yeah, or Paw Ball. But not everybody has paws.

Lady Aberlin: Oh, Dr. Bill, how nice to hear your voice.
[to King Friday]
Lady Aberlin: It's Dr. Bill Platypus.
King Friday XIII: I assumed that.

Audrey Paulifficate: [answers phone] Neighborhood castle. Miss Paulifficate speaking. It's the new president of old, Sire.
King Friday XIII: I'd better take that inside.

King Friday XIII: [trolley dings] Don't you worry about that. Don't you mind. There will *always* be mechanical scoffers.

King Friday XIII: [discussing Harriet Cow's plant] A rare and precious plant belongs at a royal castle, not at a donkey farm.
Lady Aberlin: Uncle Friday, what do you mean by "belongs at a royal castle"?
King Friday XIII: Why, I mean that me and my royal gardeners should be taking care of this plant if it is so rare.
Lady Aberlin: [appalled] Uncle Friday, you're not gonna take it away from her, are you?
King Friday XIII: I am the king, niece Aberlin! I believe I can have what I want!
Lady Aberlin: [at a loss for words] Uncle Friday, this is... so unfair that... I'm speechless. You'll have to excuse me.
[leaves]
King Friday XIII: You're excused.

Audrey Paulifficate: [reading a note from Harriet Cow to King Friday] "Dear King Friday, your royal highness sir, I'm glad you like my plant. I cannot send it to you, though, not even for a visit. It belongs to me and I need to take care of it. Yours sincerely, Harriet Elizabeh Cow."
King Friday XIII: Miss, Paulifficate, I must have heard wrong.
Audrey Paulifficate: Oh, would you like me to read it again? "Dear King Friday..."
King Friday XIII: [interrupting] Miss Paulifficate, I believe Harriet Cow was saying no to me: King Friday XIII.

Chuck Aber: [singing] It's a beautiful night in this neighborhood!
