[entering the kitchen with a package] Let's see, it says it's from… "L.L. Bear Catalog!" Oh, this is great! This must be the bear clock I ordered. [to the viewer] Yeah. I ordered a clock in the shape of a bear. [begins opening the package] This is going to be so neat. Wait till you see this. This is a clock shaped [drumroll] just like a…
[He pulls a out a clock, which is similar to the design of Kit-Cat Klock, in the shape of a shunk from the package]
…skunk? It's a… it's a skunk clock. Wait a minute. This isn't right. What does this say here? [picks up the card] Um… Uh, [reads] "Congratulations on receiving your 'The Skunk Clock.' It is sure to add skunky charm to your home." They made a mistake. They sent me the wrong clock. Um… well, I mean… that's okay… maybe, maybe this'll work out. I mean, skunks are good too, [lens up the skunk clock to the viewers] right? Let's see. Where should we hang this? [walks to the kitchen table] Um… here? [looks at the floor] Um, down here? [looks at the wall where the apple clock is] Hey! How about up here? Yeah. That's a good spot. Okay. [puts the skunk clock on the kitchen bench] So we'll put this down and take down the apple clock. [hears Ojo and Treelo playing outside] Huh?
OOjo
[laughs] Alright, Treelo!
Hey. That's Ojo and Treelo and it sounds like they're playing outside. Do you want to go see what they're doing? Come on. We'll have fun hanging the… skunk later.
OOjo
I think Tutter hurt his tail.
We're playing hide and seek, Bear.
OOjo
Yeah. We were playing hide and seek, and then Tutter and I, we hid behind the table and then the book, it... The book!
[spots the book that fell] The book. This one?
OOjo
The book fall down on Tutter's tail, Bear. Let me move it.
Look at it, Bear! Would you look at it?
I can't look at it. Would you... [notices a tail that bent]
I know it's bent, Treelo!
Oh, woe is me. A mouse with a bent tail! What could be worse, I ask you? What could be worse!
Tutter Well, so, Doctor Hogg…
Well, what's wrong with my little tail?
Tutter, I think your tail has a little fracture in it.
[relaxed] Hm-hm, a fracture. Hm. [shocked] A FRACTURE?! [gasps] A fracture! Bear, I've got a fracture! Oh, it's worse than I thought! Oh…! Doctor Hogg, what's a fracture?
Oh. [chuckles] Well, Tutter, it's not too bad. It can happen to anyone. I'll use the x-ray machine and I'll show you.
[surprised] An x-ray? What's that?!
[bringing in an x-ray camera] Well, I'll show you that, too. See, this is an x-ray camera. It can take a picture of the inside of you.
This time, we're taking a picture of the inside of your tail.
Boy, wow! Hey, I've never seen the inside of my tail before, Bear.
BDBear, Doc Hogg, Tutter and Ojo
[chuckle]
Okay, now, if you don't mind, step back, Bear, Ojo, you too. [moves the x-ray camera towards Tutter] Give Tutter a little bit of room.
Okay, Tutter. We're still here.
And in just a minute or two, we'll have…
[Cuts to a x-ray picture of the fracture in the inside of Tutter's tail on the wall]
[chuckles] Hmm? Now then, uh, Tutter, you see right there?
Wh… You mean that little break?
Yep. That's what a fracture is. [Bear nods to the viewer]
A little break in one of your bones.
If I had a dime for every time a mouse came in here with a little fracture in his tail. Well, heh-heh. I'd have a whole lot of dimes. [Bear, in confusion, Tutter and Ojo, in surprise, stare at the camera] Well, uh, because of that fracture…
…we'll have to give you a little cast.
[gasps softly] Hey. Hey, did you hear that, guys? I'm going to get a cast.
Yeah. [Tutter chuckles, but looks interested]
Doctor Hogg, what's a cast?
[Soon, Tutter has a cast on his tail]
See? A cast is a special hard bandage that can set your tail in the right position.
What, you mean so it'll be straight again?
[In the kitchen, Bear sips a cup of hot cocoa]
Aaah. [to the viewer] You know, I'm still doing things a little differently today. Instead of having my usual cup of tea, I'm having a cup of nice, hot cocoa. [smells the hot cocoa] Ah. Smells delicious.
OOjo
[offscreen] Bear! Bear! Ooh...
That sounds like Ojo. Ojo? [hears Ojo, who is wearing a hat and scarf, panting] Ojo? [He bumps into Ojo] Oh! Ojo, take it easy. Okay, now, just tell me what happened.
OOjo
Bear, I was, I was up in the attic playing dress up, and, and, and, and, and, and…
Ojo, Ojo, easy, easy. Breathe in. [Ojo inhales] Breathe out. [Ojo exhales]
OOjo
[panting] And this big old monster with wings came flying right in the window, Bear. It was awful.
A monster? Through the window?
Hmm? [Tutter was at his mousehole, holding a picture book] Oh, hey, Tutter.
What's the-- Hey, Bear. Wh-what's all the racket? I'm trying to concentrate on a picture book in here.
OOjo
Oh, oh, but, Tutter, I saw a monster. [Tutter looks shocked and stares at the camera for a few seconds] He had these big brown wings and these big pointy ears, [Tutter laughs, thinking Ojo is making that up] and, and…
Oh, Ojo. Brown wings, pointy ears.
OOjo
But-but-but, Tutter.
[laughs] Well, any mouse can tell you there's no such thing as monsters. [to Bear] Right, Bear?
In fact, Ojo, I think you saw a little [Tutter nods] bat that flew in from the pond.
[looking in his picture book] Yeah, that's right, a little-- [gasps in shock] Bat?! Did-did-did you say "bat"?
As in "flappy-flappy, eekie-eekie"?
Um… yeah. [Tutter turns to the camera in horror]
LATER! [rushes back inside his mousehole and slams the door closed]
But, Tutter, there's nothing to be…
[Tutter locks the door and Bear finishes his last two words.]
Ah, there you are. How are things going?
OOjo
Oh, well, uh they're going great, Bear! Just great! Everything's uh perfect, just like I promised!
I'm glad to hear it. The food's coming along nicely.
OOjo
This really might be the best Thanksgiving ever! Oh, you bet, Bear.
Oh and by the way, lovely centerpiece.
OOjo
Well, sometimes when things happens, like what happened to the library, it's weird when buildings get hurt and it worries me, Bear.
Yeah, I know what you mean, Ojo. But maybe this'll help. [sings]

RRocko
This is gonna be great, it's a little game I just made up called "grilling Mr. Cheese"
RRocko
Yeah, we capture Mr. Cheese, put him under a hot light and ask him a bunch of questions about what he's been up to.
RRocko
My guess is, he's gonna melt under the pressure (laughs) [Rocko speeds off to get Mr. Cheese]
RRocko
Aha! [Rocko takes Mr. Cheese] I got him, I got him!
What are you doing Rocko?
RRocko
I got some questions for you
PPPip and Pop
Rocko! Let go!

Well, here's your snacks the... [Bear is surprised] Hey! What's going on?
RRocko
Ooh, uhh... Everything's okay Bear, just having some fun, right guys?
EEEveryone except Rocko and Bear
Well, actually...
(screaming) NO! NO NO NO NO, AND NO!
Everybody is not having fun Rocko
Yeah, in fact, it's kind of turned into the opposite of fun
RRocko
Me? Un-fun? Well, okay then, forget it! FORGET ALL OF YOU! [Rocko leaves]
Gosh, what happened? I thought you all we're having fun
Well... Don't get us wrong
PPPip and Pop
We love Rocko Bear, he's our cousin
But I think he's not so good at playing nice
OOjo
Oh yeah, you know? He only wanted to do what he wanted to do
Yeah, and wanted to grill poor Mr. Cheese!
Gee, well... I think we all should talk to Rocko about this, why don't you all think about what you want to say and... I'll go see if he's okay [Bear leaves]
I love to take trips, but I love even more to come home to a [comes into the living room] nice, clean, Big, blue, [pauses to find a huge mess everywhere in the living room] hou...? Oh... Oh... My... Look at this mess! [Bear hears Ojo's voice]
OOjo
Treelo! Keep looking!
Hey, that sounds like Ojo, maybe she can tell me what's been going on. Come on! [Bear goes into Treelo and Ojo's room] Ojo? Treelo? [In the room]
[Treelo looks for Snowbear] No
OOjo
(sighs) I don't know where...
look at... [Bear comes into Treelo and Ojo's room}
OOjo
Bear! Treelo Bear's home! Hey, come on, let's all... Oh, umm... Just a second bear, no, maybe it's this way [Ojo and Treelo escapes from the mess moving stuff outta the way]
[hugging Ojo and Treelo] Hey, it's good to see you too
OOjo
Umm, Bear! We can't find Snowbear!
OOjo
Yeah yeah yeah, we can't find Snowbear or Rockboy
Gee... I really can't see why
OOjo
Well, what do you mean?
Well... You know... All this...
OOjo
Oh yeah, you mean cause there's all this stuff around right?
OOjo
Yeah, Umm... Well... You see, while you we're gone, we kind of thought... You know, what's the point of putting all this stuff away since well, we're just going to pull it all back out again, right?
OOjo
Yeah, Lois didn't mind
Well, that's quite err... Interesting way of looking at things I guess
OOjo
Yeah, that cleaning up was really cutting into our playtime, but now, for some reason, we can't find Snowbear or Rockboy
[Treelo keeps looking for Snowbear or Rockboy] Well... Hmm, let's see, where did you last play with them?
OOjo
(confused) Uh... Somewhere... I think somewhere... Uh... Over there behind what's left of the pillow castle I think
Okay well, umm... [Bear gets up to his feet] Why don't we just start cleaning our way over there and let's see uhh... Taking this and putting that away
Very good! Hey, what's that down there? [Pointing to the ground]
OOjo
(laughter) (kissing Snowbear) I just can't understand why we had so much trouble finding them
Well, you see [Bear gets distracted and looks to the left]
[bear looks at the audience] Hey, that sounds like Pip and Pop, I'd better go see what they're up to, see you later! [Bear leaves]
OTOjo and Treelo
Bye bear (laughter)
