Can you believe Grampy hiked all the way to the tippy-top when he was our age?

- Wow, and he put a flag up there, too!

- Well, we could do that!

We could hike all the way to the tippy-top of Mt.

Really High Up!

- Oh!

And we can put down our own flag!

- We have a flag?

- We have a flag!

- Hey!

- To the tippy-top of Mt.

Really High Up!

- Hee-haw, let's get ready to go!

- Ooh!

- Ah!

Okay, Panda!

We're all packed for our hike, and ready to go!

- Yeah!

- I'm so excited!

- Me too!

But Grampy said that this hike is really hard.

- Oh, we can do it, Panda!

- You think so, Donkey?

- Yeah!

Yeah!

We're strong!

- (Deep voice) Strong!

- And brave!

- (Deep voice) Brave!

- And we've done hard things before!

- Yep, we sure have.

Wait.

Have we?

- Yeah, yeah, like uh... Oh!

Oh, like when we wanted to build the biggest snowman ever?

♪♪♪ Donkey: Hee-haw!

Building a snowman was hard!

- Whew!

That was hard!

- But we're strong!

- Hey!

Grampy was here!

- We're on the right path, buddy!

- Hmm!

♪♪♪ - (Pants) Are we there yet, Donkey?

- Not yet, Panda, but we're getting there.

- This hike is getting really hard.

Grampy was right.

Donkey: Yeah, I didn't think we'd still be so far away from the tippy-top!

Panda: Hey, Donkey?

Donkey: Yeah, Panda, my purple-y pal?

- (Sighs) I'm getting a little more tired.

Hey, how about we go home and rest, and try again tomorrow?

Sound good?

- I know you're tired, but we can do this!

We can climb all the way up just like Grampy did when he was our age!

Believe it!

- (Panda pants) Hee-haw!

Finally time to start rehearsing for the big concert!

Oh yeah.

Oh but wait!

We don't have a band name yet.

Oh, you're right!

Bands always have hee-hawesome names.

Like, uh, Screamin' Aunt Mimi or uh, Applesauce Boss.

Oh yeah!

So, uh, what are we gonna call ourselves?

Hmm... Hey, I know!

How about... "Donkey and Panda"!

Ah--mmm hmm.

It's really... -What?

-Well... Donkey and Panda does have a nice sound...

But what if we flip the sound and we put Panda first...

So that it's "Panda Donkey"!

Mmm.

Now that's a great name for a band!

Uhh.

I think it sorta kinda sounds better the other way... Donkey and Panda.

Hmm... Panda and Donkey.

Donkey and Panda.

-Panda Donkey.

-Donkey Panda!

-Panda Donkey!

-Danda Ponkey!

-Ponkey Danda!

-Danda Ponkey!

Uh!

[both laugh] Actually, Donkey, ha ha, "Danda Ponkey" sounds pretty good!

Yeah!

It does!

I'm so sorry, Purple Panda.

I didn't think to ask you how you'd feel if my name came first... Oh, it's okay, Donkey.

I didn't think to ask you how you'd feel if my name came first...

But with no one's name first, it works for both of us.

Yeah!

And it's a super cool band name, too!

Well, that was easy!

Yeah!

Come on, let's go practice.

Okay.

I, Donkey Hodie... And I, Purple Panda... Will now practice for our concert!

One, two, three!

♪ Oh yeah!

Danda Ponkey is sounding hee-hawsome!

The drum!

It sounds like it's coming from... [gasp] Can it be?

It is!

It's the drum!

You did it!

You found all the instruments!

Hey-o!

And you did it before the music ended.

Nice job, Donkey!

Does this mean?

MOUSTRO: Yes it does!

Donkey Hodie, you are now a member of the Hidden Orchestra!

Hooray!

Aww, thank you so much for helping me figure out how to remember everything, Panda.

You got it, Donkey!

Are you ready to play in your first Hidden Orchestra performance?

Oh yeah!

Uh, Donkey?

Uh, Donkey!

Come on!

Let's go hide and play music!

Yeah!

Think, Donkey Hodie, think.

What's a new way to play b-ball without a hoop?

Hmm... What are you doing, Buddy?

Oh!

Watching you think, helps me think, Buddy!

Ahh!

Mhm.

Hmm... We need something that the ball can go in.

Yeah!

Like a ball-sized thingy!

And maybe it should be something we can hold onto, so it doesn't blow away.

Yeah!

Like a holdable, ball-sized thingy!

Ooh!

I see a holdable ball-sized thingy!

What is it, Buddy?

A hat!

[laughs] Okay!

Take the shot, Buddy!

Hee-haw, Buddy!

-Alright!

Swish!

-Hee-haw!

Okay, now it's my turn, Buddy.

Whoa!

Don't worry!

The wind didn't get it!

Take the shot, Buddy!

Okay.

Ohhh!

Nothin' but hat!

Yeah!

We found a new way to play Camp Buddy Buddy b-ball!

Camp Buddy Buddy is saved!

Hey.

Oh!

It's a scary thing catcher.

I just knew this thing would come in handy one day!

- Hee-hawesome!

This could work!

- Mm-hm!

-Hi!

How's walking Gregory going?

Not great, Purple Panda.

No walking at all.

He won't move!

Oh, that's too bad.

You can't take an elephant for a walk if the he doesn't move.

Move... Move?

Hee Haw!

I have an idea!

Oh!

[both grunting] You know, Donkey, you've always had some pretty great ideas, but using my skateboard to get Gregory to move... One of your best!

Aw, thanks, Purple Panda!

Yeah!

Even better than that time you fixed my purple spaceship with your bubble gum!

Well, it looks like it's time for us to take our walk.

Hee Haw!

Gregory?

Howdy partner!

What masked veggie am I?

- Ahh, hippity bippity bippity.

- I don't think hippity bippity bippity is a vegetable.

- [Donkey] Excuse Me.

Excuse me, Mr. Gameshow Gator?

Can Panda have another time out?

- Giddy Up!

I say we give it to him.

- What's wrong Panda?

- Donkey?

Ahh, Donkey.

I feel scared that I'll make a mistake or mess up, or wear a Santa beard and sing Jingle Bells.

What do we do?

How can I not feel scared?

- Hmm hmmm-- - It's happening.

Help.

Quickly.

- Think Donkey Hodie, think.

What can you do when you feel scared?

- ♪Oh jingle bells, jingle bells ♪ Oh hurry.

♪ Jingle all the way - Ah!

I got it.

- What is it?

What do I do?

- Sometimes I get scared during my soccer games.

I worry that I'll kick the ball into the wrong goal.

It makes me so scared that I don't even want to play.

- Well what do you do when you feel scared?

- I always look to find Grampy cheering in the crowd.

Seeing someone that I love cheer for me reminds me that I'm not alone and that makes me feel less scared.

- Oh great.

I'll just look for Grampy.

Wait a minute.

I can't do that, Grampy's not here.

- But I am.

Look for me whenever you feel afraid and you'll see me cheering you on.

- Oh okay, I'll give it a try.

- Haha.

- Okay.

Time in.

Let's play.

Yeehaw.

What veggie am I?

(Panda exhales) - Yeah!

Come on Panda!

- Okay.

You are green, and you sort of have like a flowery crown on top.

- Yes indeedy do.

- I think, hmm I think.

- You can do it Panda.

- Okay, You are a broccoli?

Hm?

No, no, no stay away, spooky-ooky swamp monster.

Oh, no Purple Panda, look.

It's me.

I'm just wearing a spooky costume to fit into the spooky place!

Oh!

That's a good disguise.

But is it spooky enough?

You were frightened.

Yeah, I sure was!

You're spooky-ooky!

Now go get that ball!

Right!

[groans] [groans] It's really working!

[groans] [distant shrieks] [gasps] That sound is... Spooky-ooky!

[both shudder] Oh Panda, I'm really not brave enough to get Bob Dog's ball back.

We should just go home.

That's not true.

You are brave enough.

Just think of another memory.

I can't, Panda.

I don't have any more brave memories.

Let me try.

Hmm... Hmm... Hey!

Remember that time we rode the Potato Coaster at Tater Land?

Hee-haw, I do remember!

I was so scared!

Oh as well we should have been!

It had six Mashed Potato Drops... And a Curly Fry Loop!

Yeah!

I remember being nervous that day, too.

But you acted so bravely, remember?

[both breathe deeply] [both scream and cheer] I really wanted to help you feel less scared.

Yeah!

And it worked!

Okay!

I can do this.

I am brave!

-No!

-I'm not brave?

No, you are!

But not just you!

[deep breath] You make me brave too!

We'll be brave together!

Oh, I can't wait to give my mama my special big birthday card!

Hee haw!

Yeah!

Hey, Panda... Hi!

Where is your birthday card?

Oh no!

Hi!

We forgot us.

What?

Hey, spaceship!

Turn around!

We forgot us!

It's a note from Uncle Panda.

It says, "Hi my purple nephew!

Enjoy playing Bobbly Ball but just know that it's hard..." Uh, yeah.

We know.

"...And that the key to catching the Bobbly Ball while it moves is really watching it and keeping your eye on the ball."

Hmm.

Okay.

Once we learn how to really watch the Bobbly Ball, we're bound to catch the Bobbly Ball!

We need to practice watching it while it bobbles!

[gasps] Practice... That makes sense.

I practice dancing every day, and every day I get better at it.

See?

So, let's practice keeping our eyes on the Bobbly Ball!

Kay.

I'm watching the ball.

Me too!

Still watching!

Me too!

I gotta say, practicing watching the Bobbly Ball is kinda boring.

Yeah, but it's important.

Just wish it was more fun... Yeah, where is it?

Oh!

It's over there!

Oh!

Let's keep watching it!

Ah ha!

Huh?

Ah ha!

[laughs] Oh, here it comes.

Ahh!

And I, Sir Panda, Royal Host of the Neighborhood.

Shall prepare for King Friday to have a time most excellent.

Yes!

Hmm...

What do kings like to do?

Um..

BOTH: Oh!

Wooo!

Yeah!

Wait, wait, wait, does spin-a-rooni tag feel kingly?

I'm not sure.

I've never been a king before.

Yeah, me, either.
