Ah, Friendship Day!
A totally not made up holiday
full of activities that celebrate
hanging with, and making friends.
Since we're spending all day with our best pals,
Andromeda and I decided to glue
our friendship necklaces together.
Come on! Let's check out
the Friendship Day Potluck!
What'd you bring to the potluck, Remy?
Mmm, our favorite, of course!
One gallon of kranch dressing!
Thanks, Vasquez!
Everything's better with a little kranch!
Blegh!
Ketchup and ranch have no business
being mixed together!
It's disgusting!
What?! No, it ain't!
Says the dunderhead who brought
a wet bag to a potluck!
They're chicken tenders.
- Chicken tenders?! - Yeah!
Because kranch and tendies
go together like Cricks and Remdies!
Very clever.
Lame!
You know what, Gregly, you're grumpier
than a, um, grumpy old man!
The problem with soup these days
is that it's too soupy!
Yeah, well, my mom says I'm this way
because I'm unhappy and I'm unhappy
because I don't have any friends!
And it was her stupid idea for me to come here
so I could make a stupid friend...
Oh. I kinda feel bad for him, Cricket.
Uh, Gregly, we'll be your friends.
Ew! Not you!
I wanna be friends with someone good!
Like, I dunno... them!
Oh, Kiki, Weezie, and Benny?
They're great! I'm sure they'll--
You big dum-dums!
You brought a parfait to a potluck?!
What a par-fail!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
- Not cool! - Too much spice on that rice.
Ugh! Ah...
I don't mean to upset people-- I just have feelings...
and I need to get them out loudly!
Listen, if you wanna make friends with them,
you can't be so... you.
What if I, Cricket Green,
master of social accepta-mability,
train you in how to be more agreeable?
Yeah, okay, whatever.
As long as you're not an idiot about it!
Hmm.
All right, Ma! I'm headin' out!
- Where ya gotta go? - I heard on the radio
that it's healthy to get in 10,000 steps a day,
so I figured I'd start a daily constitutional.
I used to take long walks in the country,
and the best part was all the waves
from the friendly folks I'd pass!
I ain't wavin' atcha, Bill.
Then I'll get to constitutin'!
Hi, there!
Hmm. City folk sure are busy.
Don't worry, Bill!
The waves will come.
All right, Gregly, let's begin
your accepta-mability training.
When my gramma's cat was jumpin' on the countertops,
she sprayed him with water 'til he learned
- not to do it no more. - You're gonna spray me
with water to teach me how to make friends?
This plan is moronic--
Not water.
Kranch dressing.
What?! That stuff is disgust--
You can swallow kranch
or you can swallow that negativity.
Trust me, this hurts us
more than it hurts you.
Yeah! 'Cause we're wasting kranch!
All right, now hit 'em with a "Right on, man."
I think Croblins is the most sophisticated
film franchise in the whole world.
Wouldn't you agree?
Right on, man--
No-oooo!
Croblins are for idiots!
"Lovin' it!"
"That's fire!" "What a dope idea!"
All right, try again.
Okay, Gregly.
How cool is it to wear sunglasses...
indoors?
S-S-So... cool.
By corn, I think he's got it!
♪ My-yyy name's Bill Green And I love to wave ♪
♪ When someone waves back It makes my... day? ♪
Wave if ya love smiles!
Ooh, hi! Hi! Hi there!
Hi! Hi! Hi-iii!
Oof!
Hey there!
Who's got one and a half pointer fingers
and loves gettin' waved at?
Uhh...
This guy!
Ugh! Don't folks 'round here
know it's rude not to wave back?
Well, Billiam, guess it's time to educate 'em.
So I said, "Lady, I don't know how taxes work,
I'm just a wittle kid!"
You got this, Gregly!
Remember, be agreeable.
I know, I know.
Right on, man.
He's a natural.
So, uh, why are you guys
standing here?
Well, we were actually gonna play
Mermaid Tag.
Did you wanna join?
What the heck is Mermaid Tag?
Is a question I ask you out of genuine interest!
Mewmaid Tag is wike wegular tag,
but when you're tagged, you gotta get on da gwound
and pose wike a mewmaid.
That's... fi-iire.
Guess which best friends won the sweater-knitting contest?
Tilly, check it out! I did a good!
We taught Gregly how to be more agreeable,
- so he could make friends! - Who's ready to be a mermaid?
Well, Gregly is certainly doin' a better job
not spoutin' negativity.
Don't be shy to show us
your inner mewmaid, Gwegly!
I know it's in der!
I'm gonna getcha!
But he looks miserable.
Ha, you may have a point.
So, hypothetically,
if a person like Gregly was encouraged to bury
all their true feelings deep, deep down, what would happen?
Hmm. Well, like a seemingly dormant volcano,
the pressure would build under the surface,
until inevitably,
it explodes!
Raining hot death upon us all.
Weady for the next wound, Gwegly?
Fire!
Oh, kranch...
Hello-ooo!
Wavin' to your health, neighbor!
Now wave to mine!
Uh...
Sir. Excuse me, sir.
I know you saw me wave at you in a real neighborly way.
- Ugh! - Hey! You better wave back at me
if you know what's good for you!
Get back here
and wave at me or I'll wave at me for you!
Bill!
What is goin' on?
I've been walkin' around all morning
and not one person has waved back at me!
I don't know why I care so much, but I do.
Well, unfortunately, you can't control other people.
You can only control yourself.
I can only control myself...
Ooh! You're a genius, Ma!
I know.
Wha-- What are you doin' now?
I'm goin' for a walk!
There's something wrong with that boy.
I'm gonna getchu, Gwegly!
You're gonna be a bweatiful mewmaid!
We gotta do something!
If Gregly has to pose like a mermaid,
he's gonna explode!
Taaaag!
You're iiiiit!
No-oooo!
Oh, tag! Ha-ha!
I'm a mermaid!
So, I guess the game's over and we can--
Hey, guys! The new trailer
just dropped for Croblins Eleven!
Wait, what? N-no!
Gregly! Look away!
This summer,
the Croblins are going
where they've never gone before:
Nebraska!
Join the Croblins on their most Midwestern adventure yet!
They'll be popping off
as they look for their papa.
Who turns out to be...
a talking tractor!
Coo-coo corn-chooo!
Here it comes...
That movie's absolute garbage!
It's a cinematic crime against humanity!
It's even dumber than Mermaid Tag!
Whoa, not cool.
That scream don't rise to the top.
C'mon, let's find someone else to pway with.
I-- Uh.
Gregly! Come back!
I can't make the city folks wave at me.
So, I'll go where I can get a wave back.
Smalton! Hello, sir.
- Howdy, neighbor! - Afternoon, ma'am!
Enjoy your walk!
- Hi there! - A-loha!
Isn't this the perfect day for a stroll?
I'll say! Especially with this weather we're having.
Mm-hmm. It is, in fact, weather!
Nice chattin' with you!
Hey, fellas! Heh.
Enjoyin' this weather?
Gregly? Where are you?
We just wanna know if you're okay!
No! I'm not okay!
- Gregly? - I was sad before,
because I didn't have any friends,
so you told me to be more agreeable!
Then I got friends, but I was still sad!
So does that mean
I'm just never gonna be happy?
Huh. I guess
I shouldn't a' tried to change Gregly.
He's gotta be his loud, passionate self!
Yeah, but Kiki, Benny, and Weezie
don't wanna be friends with me when I'm being myself!
Ya know, when Tilly wanted a friend,
she found someone she could be herself around.
Same goes for me and Remy!
You just need to find someone who likes you for you!
But that's the problem!
No one likes me!
You said it yourself.
I'm grumpier than...
a grumpy old man.
Hmm. Yes. Yes, you are!
So then they have this stupid potluck
for this made-up holiday!
And they brought parfait!
See, that right there, that's why I never had kids!
Well, tell me about it!
Hey, Gregly! How's everything goin'?
Great, actually!
These guys hate all the same things I hate!
You're darn right we do!
Thanks for helping me find friends, Cricket.
For being such an idiot...
you actually have some good ideas.
Thanks for your kind, harsh words, Gregly.
We're just glad you're happy.
