Bear

[confusing, unable to tell what that smell is] That word is a fruit. You know, the fruit that's red on the inside and white on the inside. It grows on apple trees. What's the word? [gets the idea] Apple? That's right! Apple!

Bear

[as the world "Apple" appears] "Apple" is a word that begins with "A".

Bear

[about Harry who learned a lesson about Tutter's words] Well, I'm glad we worked that out. Now I think I'll go back to my newspaper. Come on.

Bear

I know what you mean. You mean [picks up a plug] the plug!

That's it! The plug! [the word "Plug" appears]

Bear

"Plug" is a word that begins with "P". Do you know that?

♪ Peter Piper ♪

Hi, I'm Peter Piper and I'm here to pick some pickled pepper. Heh heh!

♪ Picked a peck of pickled peppers ♪

[viewing the pickles inside the jar with ruler's lines and numbers] A peck is about eight quarts!

♪ A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked ♪

Sure is heavy!

♪ Where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked? ♪

I ate a peck of pickled peppers I did pick. I shouldn't eat so many pickled peppers. Whew! [falls over] Oh!

Bear

By the way, if you ever need to do or see something that needs to be plugged in, why don't you get a grown up to plug it in for you and turn it on; okay?

Bear

[about the word "Interactive" with 11 yellow letters] Wow, that's a big word. In-ter-­ac-tive. But we interact every day. When you say or do something, and someone or something says or does something back to you, that's interactive. For example, when you throw a ball [an animated ball appears with two human hands] and someone catches it and throws it back, that's interactive. [an animated flower appears] Or... when you give your grandma a flower and she smiles... that's interactive! And, well, let's see, [thinks for a moment] what else is interactive? [gets an idea] Hey, I know! Something I love to do is very interactive! Dancing! When you dance with someone, you're interacting! How about I teach you the Bear Cha-Cha-Cha? Would you like to learn and dance with me? Great! Stand up! It's not hard, and I'll show you how to do it! Watch me and then you do it. Now, first you stamp your feet... [stamps feet] Stamp them again. [stamps feet] That's great! Now throw your head back! [he does this] And stamp your feet again! [stamps feet again] One more time! [stamps feet another time] Now, spread your legs, and wiggle them! Put them together. And stamp your feet again... [stamps his feet] One more time! Now wiggle and spin. [whistles] And Bears love a big finish, so I want you to pose and say Cha Cha Cha with me. Okay? Now you try! Stamp your feet and pose!

Hi, I'm Gus; your interactive shadow dog! I'm looking for my human pal Gloria. Where do you think she is? Is she:

[he selects a choice] You chose "C: the beach". [the letter C disappears] Look, there's a message in a bottle from Gloria! It says "Dear Gus, I've gone to a city across the ocean. See you there.

Gus, you found me!

Yeah! And a help with my interactive buddies!

Want to play fetch?

You bet!

I'm collecting money for the poor Muskrats down in the valley who were recently flooded out of their muskrat holes when the river rose up last week.

Tutter

My mousehole is too small! Too small! I can't get all my stuff in anymore!

♪ To market, to market ♪

Hi there! How you doin'?

♪ Home again, home again ♪

You got that right!

♪ To market, to market ♪

$2.00! Is that it?

♪ Home again, home again ♪

You wait and see.

I can't believe I'm only worth $2.00!

We're making a wildlife refuge.

Last one is a rotten egg! [chuckles]

First, $2.00; now I'm a rotten egg?

Three cheers for Bear! Hip hip hooray! (3x)

Bear

[about the word "Thanksgiving" he loved] It's a big word and a special day for being, well, thankful. It's a day you get together with your family and friends and make a wonderful meal! [a table with Thanksgiving food appears, passing him by] It's a way of celebrating everything you have like a happy home [an animated house appears along with the Sun] full of people who care about you! There's a lot to be thankful for. And Thanksgiving is the perfect day to think about them.

Bear

Ah, there you are. How are things going?

Oh, well, uh they're going great, Bear! Just great! Everything's uh perfect, just like I promised!

Bear

I'm glad to hear it. The food's coming along nicely.

This really might be the best Thanksgiving ever! Oh, you bet, Bear.

Bear

Oh and by the way, lovely centerpiece.

[reading the "1001 Ways to Cook Slop" book] First, gather all of your dry ingredients...

Dry, I'll say, dry...

Bear

Then, mix them together in a bowl with milk, butter and sugar. This sounds pretty tasty, but it doesn't sound like a story. [he notices the cookbook] Wait a second. This is a cookbook!
