Welcome, everybody, to “Hello!
Hi!
How Are You?” I am your host, Mr. Clown.
And I am the one, the only, the only one ever in the history of anyone ever— Well, I think Ive met another Tommy before.
What?!
I'm the only Tommy T. Tomato!
Okay.
You're the only Tommy.
And theres only one Ozzie!
Thank you, Mr. Clown.
Oh, hey, Tommy, I got a joke for you.
This better be good, Ozzie.
What is red and goes up and down?
Ummm, that stuff inside a thermometer?
Oh, that's a good one.
Nope.
A firetruck on a roller coaster?
Ah-uh.
An angry bouncy ball?
Nada.
An angry bouncy ball on a roller coaster?
Nope.
An embarrassed penguin jumping rope?
Not even close.
Well, I'm out of guesses.
You didn't make any guesses.
Well, you took all the good ones.
Just you wait.
There's plenty more where that came from.
Is it a matador with hiccups?
Try again.
A clown nose on a pogo stick?
[snoring while guesses continue] ...a peeled watermelon on a roller coaster?
Nope.
Wha—?
Oh, the red stuff in a thermometer!
You already guessed that one.
What is red and goes up and down.
Uh-huh.
What is red and goes up and down?
Yeah.
Well, I've guessed everything.
It's Tommy in an elevator.
Haha!
That was funny, Ozzie.
But I always take the stairs.
Or a hot air balloon.
Okay, that was funny but I think we need a time limit on your guesses, Tommy.
We have a show to do, and so far we've only had the downs.
We need some ups.
Just one more thing.
I need to introduce The Pride.
[band begins playing] [music distorts] Oh, no no no!
Tommy, the big, red button, please.
Okay.
Three clicks, please.
[loud music continues] Meep, release the pin.
Whoooo!
Yeah!
[music is silenced] Welcome back, Tommy.
You'll have time to recover, because it's time to find out the letter of the day!
To the Surprise Corner, Ozzie.

Its an S!
[music ends] [Meep snoozes] The letter S!
Isn't it cool that the letter S sounds like what it is?
S. S. S. I never noticed that.
So, the letter S sounds like me saying the letter S. S!
I need to know more.
TV, to your station.
Hello, Liesel.
Hello, Mr. Clown.
Oh, I am very excited for this letter.
What letter?
It's the letter S. Whoa!
Oh, look at that.
It goes just like a racetrack.
It is a fun-looking letter!
It is a fun letter.
And, Liesel, now I'm going to tell you how it sounds.
Yeah, just do it.
[gibberish] Yeah, actually, no.
What?
Yes, yes, yes!
I made a mistake.
I get to learn something new.
It sounds like “Ssssss.” Oh.
“Ssssss.” Like “stage.” Did somebody say “stage”?
♪ Hello!
Hi!
How are you Hope you have a special day.
♪ Violet!
We're in the middle of hearing about the letter S. Please don't interrupt.
Oh, sorry.
You know what another good S word is?
Star.
Did somebody say “star”?
♪ Hello!
Hi!
How are you Hope you have a special day.
♪ Violet, please!
I know you want to be a star.
I am a star.
We're still learning about the letter S. So, please stop interrupting.
Okay, fine.
I'll just sit here and keep my mouth shut.
Thank you.
Now, on to another S word.
Hmmm.

I'm super glad to know you.
You are great in every way.
But when we have to say goodbye and go our separate ways, Remember these few friendly words I said to you today.
♪ [cheering] Oh, S is such a splendid letter.
Oh, there are so many interesting S places.
I can't wait to see where Milton sends us today.
Tommy?
Yeah?
Can I see you in our top secret space?
Sure thing.
Oh, I'm going to take the stairs.
Tommy, I have something to say.
Spill it, Mr. Clown.
I know where Milton is going today, and I'm super scared about it.
[gasps] So, where is Milton going?
Oh, right.
Sorry.
Space.
Did somebody say “space”?!
Shhh!
Violet.
The most important rule of our super secret space is we have to be super soft spoken.
Sorry.
Did somebody say “space”?
So scary.
What's so scary about space?
Everything.
Space is dark.
It's secluded.
It's silent.
It's very sizable.
Oh, that does sound kind of scary.
Maybe we can just slow down and breathe.
Mr. Clown, what's your favorite kind of soup?
Tomato.
Pick a different one.
Lentil.
I like matzo ball.
Okay, picture your bowl of delicious soup.
Mmmmm Now smell your delicious soups.
[inhales] Oh, the soup is a little too hot.
So, now blow on the soup to cool it down.
[exhales] Smell the soup.
[inhales] Blow on the soup.
[exhales] Smell the soup.
Blow on the soup.
How do you feel now?
Wow, I feel better.
But when can we eat the soup?
I actually fee a little less scared of space.
Now, let's have Milton show us how not scary space can be.
I might do matzo ball next time I'm scared.
Hahaha.
Mmm.
Welcome to “Miltons Magic Microphone.” Also known as “MMM.” I'm here with misinformation.
Excuse me, Milton.
You have to pause between Miss and Information.
Misinformation is wrong information.
Miss Information is her to give you unlimited knowledge.
Well, I'm glad we got that cleared up, Miss... Information!
Now let's fire up the magic microphone and get into it!
Here we in space: one of the most mysterious places in the universe.
Do they call it space because theres so much room?
[chuckles] Well Milton, space is where our Earths atmosphere ends and the great expanse beyond begins.
Space doesn't have any molecules, which means there's nothing to carry the vibration of sound waves.
So, there's no sound.
Good thing I got my magic microphone so they can hear us even out here.
[echoes] Whoa, stunning.
What is that?
That is the Milky Way galaxy.
That contains Earth and all the other planets of ou solar system orbiting the sun.
All of the stars that we see in the night sky are part of our galaxy.
Oh!
Hi, Sunny.
Ah, Milton and Miss Information!
Coming to visit your closest star?
Yes, we were.
Oh.
Hey, what's happening?
[laughing] Sorry.
My gravity is why you'r moving closer and closer right n Gravity is what keeps the Earth and the other planets in our solar system in orbit around me.
As a matter of fact, gravity is what is keeping us from flying farther into outer space.
Oh, thanks for the information, Sunny!
Wow, what a great video.
Don't you think so, Mr. Clown?
You're not Mr. Clown!
But I have an idea where he might be.
[whimsical music] Hi, Phil.
Oh, hi.
What are you eating, Phil?
I'm having watermelon today.
But this is not just any watermelon.
This is yellow watermelon.
Oh.
Yeah, Phil.
I would definitely not eat that at all, because watermelon should be red.
No, I'm not going to— Oh!
Mmmm!
Oh.
Excuse me, Phil?
Yes?
Would you mind if I just tasted a little bit of that yellow watermelon in my mouth?
All right.
What do you think of that?
That was tremendous.
Oh, I cannot believe ho delicious yellow watermelon is.
I thought it had to be red to be delicious.
But I was wrong.
Phil, why don't you leave the rest of the watermelon for me?
And then you won' have to worry about eating it.
A silly situation started Saturday when a swimming salmon chased a salamander into a skunks submarine.
A tale as old as time.
[monkey and other jungle noises] Oh!
Hello, Meep!
What's this?
[unintelligible mouse squeaks] The word of the day.
Ozzie, for no reason at all, would you mind joining us and opening this envelope?
Oh, yeah.
I'm back in action.
I'm the king of the envelope jungle.
Whats it say?
Hippopatomus!
Uhhh... it actually says “TV, to your station.” What hats?
I already have a hat.
No new hats here.
Whoa!
Thats a funny hat!
Your hat is great.
Its so goofy Hee hah!
Ah!
Haha.
Those glasses are hilarious.
Hah!
Yours are, too!
Whatever you do, dont dance.
Oh, no.
Tommy!
I dont think I cant not dance.
Me neither!
Whooo!
♪ And then we dance, dance, dance, dance, dancity dance.
Were gonna dance, dance, dance like spaghetti noodles.
Were gonna dance, dance, dance like spaghetti noodles.
And then we freeze.
And then we dance, dance, dance, dance, dancity dance.
And then we dance, dance, dance like we're floating in space.
And then we dance, dance, dance like we're floating in space.
And then we freeze.
Ah ha ha ha!
Whew!
You looked so silly dancing like that.
I looked silly?
You looked super duper silly!
And I love being silly.
I can be the silliest!
Silly is the word of the day!
Oh, that's good.
S-I-L-L-7 That spells silly.
Almost.
S-I-L-L-Y Ah ha ha ha!
Oh, Meep!
[dance music] I'm getting really silly here.
Yeah, I like it.
Check this out.
[circus horn] Oh my goodness.
[crickets chirping] Yeah!
Oh, Mr. Clown.
It's getting too silly in here.
What are you talking about?
There's no such thing as too silly.
What about the meeting we just had?
What meeting?
[crowd murmuring] All Im saying is things are bound to get silly from time to time.
Too silly is impossible to contr Even just thinking about it gives me the willies.
You can't say the willies whe we're talking about the sillies!
Now, please!
Silliness is not the problem.
It's about how silly you got.
Oh.
Fair point.
Fair point.
So, lets say Mr. Clown and I get into a friendly silly-off and then a few more people join in.
Is that too silly?
[crowd murmurs] That doesnt sound too silly to me.
Oh, but what if they're wearing big hats?
[crowd discusses] I think I'd have to see the hat, because it still doesn't even seem that silly.
But what about glasses with googly eyes?
[crowd murmurs] You dont think that sounds too silly?
When I was just a bud on the end of a branch, I saw silliness so goofy, so wacky, it shut the whole forest down.
Im talking, wiggling, wobbling, funny-faced, weird-voiced mayhem.
Okay.
Well, I think that's going to be our silly limit.
Let's never go past that.
Ok. All in favor, say “aye.” Aye!
You know, sometimes I'm in those meetings thinking they're a waste of time, but that one really paid off.
Who would have thought things could have gotten too silly?
Hey, all.
Today's letter of the day is S. and there's been very little singing.
Please.
More singing.
♪ ♪ Okay, director.
Its time for “Guess the Animals.” Oh, boy.
Guess the Animals!
I love “Guess the Animals.” But maybe you try to guess the animal this time, Tommy.
But guessing the animals is your favorite.
I know, but I'm worried I might make a mistake.
Mr. Clown, making mistakes is the best way to learn.
If you don't make mistakes you can't learn something new.
Then I'll try not to be shy.
And even if I guess wrong, m knowledge will end up strong.
♪ Hah!
That rhymed.
Welcome to Mr. Clowns “Guess the Animal.” That's where we reveal an animal, and you have to guess what it is.
Good luck.
[fanfare] Okay.
Easy peasy.
Because it's okay to make a mistake.
That is a pig.
[buzzer] Okay.
Don't worry.
Keep guessing, Mr. Clown.
Oh, I'm just getting warmed up.
Well, now that I see it, it is obviously a giraffe.
[buzzer] Tommy, I'm making great mistakes, right?
Spectacular mistakes.
You got this, Mr. Clown.
Just focus on what you can see.
Hmmmm See if something sticks out to you.
Snake!
Wowee!
It's a snake.
It is a snake.
You got it!
Ha ha!
Woo!
Did you know snakes are found on every continent except Antarctica?
Snakes can't bite food; so they have to swallow it whole.
Snakes smell with their tongue.
Some sea snakes can breathe partially through their skin, allowing for longer dives underwater.
Awesome.
I like that they slide on their stomachs.
As someone who's been known to roll on their belly.
I find snakes to be kindred spirits.
[slithering sound] Sorry, Tommy, I can't focus.
What's making that S sound?
I have no idea.
Well, I'm not going to be able to concentrate without finding that sound.
Well, Mr. Clown, I guess we'll have to search for it.
Oh, Tommy.
Its just Ozzies soda can spritzing Wait, I can still hear it.
Oh.
That Sss sound?
I mean, I heard it too.
Made me think of a delicious soda, so I had to sample one.
[gas sound] The search continues!
Oh, boy.
Ha ha ha.
Do it again.
Ahahaha!
I love it.
Ooh?
We did it!
We found the Sss sound.
Awesome.
[steam sound] I still hear it!
The search continues.
Well, hey.
I want to find the S sound, too.
See ya.
Sayonara.
[Meep yelping] Its Meep!
And that pipe is making the Ssss sound.
Meeps fixing it.
We're so lucky to have you, Meep.
Great work, Meep.
What a relief.
[Meep shrieking] Meeps ok!
[saxaphone music] Oh, yeah.
I could listen to Meep play the saxophone all day.
Maybe we should!
Meep needs to find all the things in their apartment that start with the letter S. Can you help them?
Oh, look at that snake slithering on the blinds.
And what's that at the foot of Meeps bed?
A scorpion.
Do you see that skateboard too?
It's right next to Meeps nightstand.
Let's take a closer look.
I wonder if we're missing anything.
What do you see?
Oh, there's a sandwich on the kitchen counter.
And look at that sponge.
Right next to the sink.
We did it.
We found all six things.
Great job.
Mystery solved.
Now there's only one thing left to do.
What's that?
Sing us out, Mr. Clown.
