Hmm.
I give Dante's Inferno a B-plus for story
and an F-minus for helping us get home. How's it goin' on your end...
- Sprig? - Pretty good.
I think I'm really gettin' somewhere.
It's a giraffe.
Okay. I can see we need a break. Finger football?
You know it.
Score!
Hey. What's gotten into you two?
Oh, nothing.
We're just looking for a place to put this mud crown!
What is that? What's going on?
Well, in Amphibia, it's customary to put a mud crown on somebody's head
- when it's their birthday! - What?
♪ Froggy little birthday here ♪
♪ It's crystal clear You were born This hoppy time of year ♪
Aw, thanks, guys. You shouldn't have.
Sprig, I had no idea it was your birthday!
Eh, don't worry about it. I don't think I ever mentioned it.
But I'm your friend! I'm supposed to know these things!
Well, we're not doing any more research today.
We're doing whatever folksy frog traditions you do. Whaddya got?
Well, the mud crown represents
every frog's humble beginning as an egg in the muddy waters of the swamp.
And all that's left is for the birthday frog
to wear his crown and...
- reflect. - Reflect?
On his life until this point. Shh! It's starting!
- Okay. All done. - Welp, that's that.
Hoppy birthday, kiddo. Pretty quick this year.
I wonder which of our eight streaming services we should watch.
Wait for me, guys! - Wait. Hold on.
That's all you frogs do for your honkin' birthdays?
Yes. This is starting to feel a little culturally insensitive.
Unacceptable. Birthdays should be fun and memorable!
Especially when you're turning... uh... um... uh...
Eleven. Eleven!
And I knew that because I'm your friend.
And this friend's about to give you the best birthday
you've ever had in your life! Capisce?
Well, I'm intrigued!
A little scared, but intrigued. Let's do it.
Now, now, my little impatiens. Don't be impatient.
Sorry, Dad! Love you, Dad!
I can't believe Hop Hop and Polly didn't want to share this basket with me.
I feel perfectly sa--
Whoa... whoa... whoa...
Listen up. Earth birthdays are about fun, presents, cake.
It's basically a day that means you tell people what to do and get what you want.
Wow. In Amphibia, it's all about respecting those around you
and being grateful for the time you have left alive.
Man, talk about brainwashing.
Are you talking about me or you?
Earth birthday montage engage!
What the heck?
♪ Feliz cumpleaños, Sprig ♪
Eh.
Whew! Man, that place had everything-- big telescopes,
crazy contraptions. And I met a new friend.
That wasn't a friend. That was Security, yelling at you to get off the telescope.
Anne, on your Earth birthday, everyone is your friend.
Now you're gettin' it.
- Happy birthday, kid! - Cute balloons!
Happy b-day, dude!
It's actually my birthday too.
Wow. That was fun.
Thanks for an incredible birthday, Anne.
You know, at first, I couldn't understand why you'd make birthdays so special.
And now I get it! Today was amazing.
So, was it the best birthday you've ever had?
Oh! Definitely top three.
- What?
That's it? I pull out all the stops,
and I'm still third place to a couple of mud crowns?
Well... This will not stand!
It is my duty as your friend to keep this party going until it's in the number one spot!
But haven't we done everything by this point?
Not everything.
Thanks, Dad. Be back soon.
No worries. I'll just be over here,
reading great American literature.
Simply brilliant.
Whoa! We get to ride in one of these?
Welcome, my friend, to Paradiso.
I'm gonna get a bird's-eye view of another world
in a flying machine that's powered by fire?
Whoo-hoo!
Yes!
Sprig, what is it? What's wrong?
What the frog?
Ah! Don't be startled, child. This balloon only looks scary
because it was re-purposed from a horror movie promotional piece.
What? How could you think that was a good idea?
Well, we weren't about to waste a perfectly good clown balloon.
Anyways, the name's Blair, the balloonist.
I take it you're... ...here for the birthday package?
Yep. I'm eleven now.
Well, hop aboard, explorers!
Couple of quick safety rules before we--
Oopsie! High wind alert.
Sorry, guys, but it's too risky to fly just now.
But it's his birthday!
You make a strong argument, but no can do.
Can we at least sit in the basket
and imagine we're flying?
Yeah. Heck, you don't even need me for that.
Just give me a holler when you've had enough.
Wow! We get to use our imaginations? Neat!
Forget that!
Bam!
Whoo! Go, go, go, go, go!
Whoa!
Whoa! Isn't this risky?
Relax. We're still tethered to the ground.
What's the worst that could happen?
Come on. Let's seal the deal and make this the best birthday ever!
Yeah!
Huh?
Whoa...
Wowza. Unforgettable.
N-N-No!
Oh, my frog!
Hmm?
Whoa!
We're gonna die!
Oh, I am definitely getting fired for this.
Honk honk!
We're gonna hit something! Ow!
Not if I can help it. I'll control the altitude, you use your tongue to steer us.
Got it! Huh?
Yes, yes! We're amazing!
Down, down. Gotta go down!
Whoa! Whoa!
Whoa!
What?
Wow! You're gettin' pretty good at that.
Thanks. Huh?
Whoa! Don't open your mouth!
Well, Doc, I think you've done it.
I think you've cured me of my fear of direct eye contact!
Hon, look behind you.
No, Tyler, I will not clown face you.
I just don't know what to do.
Should I quit my office job to pursue my passion of stand-up comedy?
Lord, send me a sign!
Hey! Have you guys heard the one about the lady who probably just made a really bad decision?
That was... a lot of geese.
Sprig, look!
We can't move in time. We have to jump!
I didn't even get to give you your present!
You got me a present? Yeah, dude. It's your birthday.
Fifty hot dogs, please.
Havin' a big party, eh? No. Why do you ask?
Hey, that actually worked.
Blegh! Whoa!
Now that was a horror show. Woof!
Well, I ruined your birthday.
After all this time, I thought I'd be a better friend than this.
What? How so?
Um, hello! I didn't even know it was your birthday today.
I thought I could make it up to you with the craziest day ever.
But it looks like I'm just a failure through and through.
Friend punch!
Oh, wow. It's been a while since that happened.
Anne, you're my best friend because I love being with you.
Not because you know what day I was born.
And this birthday isn't top three because of the crazy stuff we did.
It's top three because we got to spend it together.
Really?
It's, like, the sweetest thing anyone's ever said.
Thanks, man.
Okay. I've gotta know.
What are your two top birthdays?
Well, birthday number one
was the day I was actually born and given life.
Oh. Well, that makes a lot of sense.
What about number two?
That was when my mom and dad gave me this hat.
My memory of it is a little fuzzy.
But it's an iconic hat, right?
Yeah. It is iconic.
Oh, yeah. And here's the present I got you.
Yay!
Whoa. It's a telescope
with my name engraved on it.
Thanks, Anne.
You're welcome, dude. Okay. Let's go home
because I don't wanna look at that clown anymore.
I see it whenever I close my eyes.
Well, dude, another day, another adventure resolved with no loose ends.
Anne, come on!
When is this balloon ride supposed to be over?
Whoo-hoo! Baby!
Oh! Ah! Baby!
