It’s coming from the park zoo.
Let’s go!
[the kids walking at the zoo park with seal appears]
Hey, that's not a hot dog cart!
Yeah, that's a seal.

S1 E15Unfinished Business
Wow, are you a Higglytown Hero?
PPolicewoman
Sure. But you know else is a Higglytown Hero? Our police dog, Jiffy.
When in doubt, pack everything. When it comes to the beach, you can never be too prepared.
[As the kids and Plunkie head on their way to the beach, the car gets a flat tire and comes to a stop in the middle of the road, and the kids cover their eyes]
Oh my goodness gracious!
Is it thunder? Is it a monster?
Don't answer. I don't want to know!
Oh, it's nothing to be afraid of.
It's just a flat tire.
[hops out of the car and inspects the tire] Oh!
Mom, does this mean we're not going to the beach?
I can't wear pink, with ribbons.
Well, I want to wear pink, not green.
This jacket is itchy.
[shivering and freezing] Um… I'm kind of cold.
Nice try, Higgly kids. But I don't think this is gonna work now.
Oh. How will we ever get bigger clothes?
Ooh. It's raining marshmallows!
[Two marshmallows land on Wayne's glasses]
Wayne, you got marshmallow on your glasses.
Uh, I can't see. Everything looks like it's covered in marshmallows.
[takes Wayne's glasses off his eyes] Maybe I can wipe your glasses off with my shirt.
No. We can take them inside and wash them off.
Wait! I only clean them with my special cleaning cloth. [runs into Eubie and Kip, and accidentally breaks his glasses]
EKEubie and Kip
Uh-oh!
What happened?
Oh, no! Wayne! Your glasses are broken!
Broken?! I can't wear my glasses if they're broken! And if I can't wear my glasses, I can't see clearly! [in his POV, his vision is all blurry] It looks… blurry. Like I'm opening my eyes underwater. If everything is blurry, then I'm not gonna be able to see the shooting stars! What am I gonna do?
Oh, that's a mighty fine idea, Twinkle. Yes, sir, but I'm afraid that lenses made of ice would just melt.
Aw, pickles. [snaps fingers in disappointment]
[curiously] Gee, Mom. Don't we even get a hint where we're going?
No. I told you-- it's a surprise. You'll see when we get there.
Can anyone guess where we're going?
Oh, I hope we're going to the pink puppy poodle palace so we can see all the pink poodles.
You don't have to guess anymore, kids. We're here! [they arrive at an artist's house] This is where my friend Nikki lives. She's an artist, and she's gonna give you art lessons.
Art lessons?
KKids
Cool!
[A moment later, they stand in front of the front door as Nikki, a blind artist, answers]
NNikki
Wow. You're right on time! Hey there, future artists. I'm Nikki.
KKids
Hi, Nikki.
PPhil
Ooh, looks like I'll be juggling melons again.
Grandpop Crank? You're a Higglytown Hero?
Wow, Twinkle. You're going to be great at your recital.
So a recital is when you perform in front of a lot of people?
That's right, Eubie.
I wish you could all come, but this recital is only for family members, like my mom and Wayne.
Yeah. I can't wait to go.
[reminding Wayne] Remember that tonight is a special night for Twinkle. I want you to look your best. So once you put on your good clothes, be careful to keep them nice and clean.
Don't worry, Mom. I will.
[horrified when he accidentally rips his pants] Oh, no! I've ripped my good pants! [sadly] Mom said I have to look nice in my good clothes if I want to go to Twinkle's recital. What am I gonna do? [starts singing his Ripped Pants Blues song] ♪ When I woke up this morning, the sun was in the sky
When I looked in the mirror,
I sure was lookin' fine!
It was the day of the recital: my sister's ballet debut
I'll never see her dance now 'cause of the ripped pants, can't go blues
My mom said, "Be careful." She said, "Stay nice and clean."
When she sees what I've done here, she's gonna turn a sickly green!
My best pants are in tatters, and my shirt is dirty too!
I'm gonna miss the ballet 'cause of the ripped pants, can't go blues
I tried to be careful, I just made one mistake
The rest of the family's going, but I'm gonna miss Swan Lake
Now my whole life is ruined, and my heart is broken too
I'm gonna miss the ballet 'cause of the ripped pants… can't go blues
Yeah… ♪
[remorsefully after the song ends] That's the saddest song I've ever heard.
Please don't be mad, Twinkle. I really wanted to look nice for your recital. It was an accident.
[plays her Flamingo Cello] How was that, mom?
