Yep.
Never touch a hot waffle iron.
Ooh!
Uh-uh.
Uh-uh.
Uh-uh.
Uh-uh.
Right.
Always wait a while until it's cool.
Uh-huh.
Oops!
Almost forgot.
Happy Valentine's Day, George.
Ah!
Ooh.
[ Chitters ] Oh, I love Valentine's Day.
It's when we get to show all our friends how much we care about them.
[ Narrator ] George wanted to show The Man how much he cared about him too.
Uh, don't worry about the dishes.
I can... take care of them.
[ Chittering ] [ Narrator ] George would make The Man the best Valentine's Day card ever.
[ Chittering ] It took longer than he thought.
But he wanted his Valentine's card to be really special.
Ah!
[ Chitters ] [ Sighs ] But The Man had said Valentine's Day... was for showing all your friends that you cared about them.
George had a lot of friends.
And he wanted to make a card for every single one.
[ Chitters ] [ Chittering ] But even using hands and feet, it took a long time.
Phew.
Aw.
By the time he finished drawing cards for all his friends, it'd probably be summer again.
Oh!
He needed a faster way to make cards... so he could surprise all his friends today.
Oh!
Ah!
And then he realized he had stamps.
[ Hooting ] Maybe there were some stamps in the drawer... he could use to make a Valentine's card.
Uh-uh.
Uh-uh.
Oh.
Oh!
He didn't have a single stamp that was right.
He needed a heart.
Huh.
Hey!
He could make his own heart stamp.
Oh!
He had rectangles, squares, circles, half circles and triangles.
Hmm.
How could he make a heart from those shapes?
[ Chitters ] If he put a rectangle and a rectangle together, he got a square... or a longer rectangle.
That did not look like a heart.
Uh-uh!
If he put a square and a square together, he got another rectangle.
[ Groans, Mutters ] [ Chittering ] Hearts had two roundy bits and a pointy bit.
Circles were round.
Oh.
Oh.
Two circles looked like a sideways eight, not a heart.
[ Hooting ] Maybe he could use half circles instead?
Yeah!
Now he was getting somewhere.
He just needed the pointy bottom.
Ah!
Hmm?
Uh-uh.
Aha.
He needed another slanty side.
Hmm?
Oh!
Hey!
[ Hooting ] [ Chittering ] Huh.
First he glued his heart together.
Yeah!
And then he started stamping.
[ Laughing ] His card looked great.
But making his heart stamp took a long time.
Valentine's Day would be over soon.
He needed a way to stamp a lot of cards really fast.
Aha!
George bet he could stamp super fast on a pogo stick.
[ Hooting ] [ Hooting Continues ] But pogo stick stamps were messy and hard to control.
[ Shouts, Whimpers ] Ooh!
[ Chuckling ] [ Hesitant Chuckle ] Good job, George.
Okay.
I'm gonna deliver the rest of my Valentine cards.
You wanna come with me?
Uh-- Uh-uh.
Uh-uh.
Uh-uh.
Oh.
Okay.
Uh, I'll be back in a bit.
Be a good little Valentine monkey.
Uh-huh.
[ Narrator ] All that cleaning took so long.
How would he finish his cards?
And he still didn't have a fast way to stamp them.
[ Grunts, Chitters ] Maybe there was a quick stamper in the closet.
[ Grunts ] Aah!
Uh-uh.
No quick stamper there.
[ Gasps ] Or maybe there was.
Ooh!
[ Hooting ] A tricycle stamper would be much better... than a pogo stick stamper.
Uh-huh.
Because tricycle stampers stayed where you steered them.
Huh?
But tricycle stampers squished your card... and then ate them.
Oh!
[ Sighs ] And made a mess of the carpet too.
Valentine's Day was almost over.
George had less time than ever.
And he still only had three cards to give his friends.
[ Sighs ] [ Breeze Blows ] [ Hooting ] [ Shouts ] Yi!
Ooh!
[ Shouts, Hoots ] Oh.
George was glad the waffle iron was off.
Oh.
But one of the cards was ruined.
[ Gasps ] Hey.
Only, he could make a new one... on his super quick card stamper.
[ Chittering ] He just had to replace the waffle patterns... with heart patterns.
[ Giggles ] [ Gasps, Chuckles ] Aha!
Hey, hey!
He'd have to hurry to get all his cards done on time.
[ Hooting ] [ Laughing ] His cards looked good, but they needed a personal touch.
Huh.
[ Chitters ] [ Hooting ] Ah!
Ah!
[ Barking ] Wow.
What a day.
[ Hooting ] Wow!
Did you make this, George?
Ah!
[ Chuckles ] It's amazing!
