Hello!
My radish.

Worry's for another day
Let the music play
Down at Fraggle Rock Down at Fraggle Rock
Down at Fraggle Rock.
These Doozer sticks are gross. I don't think I can eat 'em.
No one can.
That's why the whole hall is full of Doozer buildings.
I must have stubbed my toe eight times to--
Make that nine.
And not to signal boost negativity,
but our waterfall has become a water trickle.
There are so many problems stacking up in Fraggle Rock.
If only we had some help.
The Wise Council is here.
Come on, Henchy.
Give it some pizzazz.
The Wise Council is here!
Wow.
Now, about this waterfall problem…
Icy, do your thing.
It's Icy Joe time.
Work!
Nah. Didn't work.
Well, sorry. The best minds couldn't crack it.
Anyone else hungry?
I could eat.
Just not that.
-No. -All right. Let's go.
Wait, wait. Please don't go.
Between the waterfall and the Craggles forced out of their home,
and the Doozer's yuck-tasting buildings taking up the Great Hall,
we need really your help.
And not to question your processes, but maybe it would be helpful to get
a fresh mind on the council.
Good idea! When can they start?
Wait a second.
Do you think just anyone can join the Wise Council?
Well, no.
No, really. I'm asking. How does it work? I forget.
We know Wise Council material when we see it.
And when we do, we will play the ceremonial choosing sound.
All right, gang.
It's time for a well-deserved nap.
-It's been an afternoon, huh? -Yeah.
Wow.
-Did you hear that? -Wow.
One of us could be a member of the Wise Council.
There you are.
I got lost in all the Doozer buildings.
I thought I saw you, but that ended up being rocks.
Wembley, we're so glad you're here.
Yeah, yeah. One of us could be on the Wise Council.
Who of the four of us should be on the Wise Council?
-Yeah, which one? -I could do it.
I've got the energy.
Or they could use an explorer.
Or someone to stay calm and meditate on solutions.
I have foresight.
I can imagine all the ways we can get hurt.
Wembley, which one?
Maybe-- I mean-- I think any of you would be top-notch.
But, well, I don't know. Maybe I could--
-He'll never decide between us. -No. No.
Let's go try to get the Wise Council's attention.
Come on. Yeah. Excuse me, Wise Council.
"Meditator in Chief." That sounds good.
They didn't even consider that I could be on the council.
That's very hurtful, huh?
Yeah.
Look at that metropolitan majesty.
Yeah. And there's a lot of buildings too.
But how could we build more?
We're running out of room.
Relax, Cotterpin.
The Fraggles will eat 'em just like they always do.
But that's the problem. The Fraggles aren't eating them.
Not since we started using that goo.
I think we rushed it. We need to take a minute and--
A minute? Do you mean, like, a pause?
Need I remind you, Cotterpin, of the Great Pause?
Long ago, on a Doozer day very much like this one,
a Doozer's malfitting helmet fell into the machinery.
Oh, no! My malfitting helmet fell into the machinery.
We have to pause work.
-I heard it was only 40 seconds. -It was a full minute!
Listen, the goo is great. It's a new flavor.
The Fraggles just need to be convinced to start eating it.
And there's only one Doozer convincing enough for the job.
You don't mean--
Jack Hammer?
The legend himself.
He came up with the nine-day workweek.
Tool belt Tuesday.
Why, he's the one who got the monorail down to only one rail.
That's Jack Hammer.
Okay, Doozers. Let's "dooze" this.
Having fun, buddy?
Don't get the wrong idea. I can't play.
I've got the lunch shift.
But I've got the perfect friend to play fetch with you.
Voilà.
I call it Doc Bot.
While I'm at work, it'll walk you, feed you, play with you,
take care of you, take over the world with its robot pals.
Just kidding about that last one.
Hopefully. Look at this.
It plays fetch.
Doc Bot.
Cookie boy.
Who is good, very dog, boy?
You are.
Are you, boy? Dog, very good.
Boy, cookie. Cookie boy.
-Who is good-- -It'll be like I never left.
I can go to work and grow my bacteria, and Doc Bot will look after you.
You two have fun. I have to go walk the shake plank.
There, there, Spork-let.
There, there.
Okay. So, if one of us is going to get on the Wise Council,
we're gonna to have to figure out a way to really get their attention.
Yeah.
My Uncle Travelling Matt would know what to do.
In fact, he just sent me a postcard about it.
Oh, no. Not another one.
Awesome, right? Another one.
"Dear Nephew Gobo…"
I must admit, it does get lonely out here in Outer Space.
Hello.
I, too, like putting a small item into a large-item carrier.
Though the Silly Creatures clearly respect me, they kept their distance.
Perhaps they were intimidated by me. I needed a way to break through.
And then I saw him.
A Silly Creature trapped in a tiny box telling me exactly what to do.
Things up top getting you down?
Well, now there's a solution. Spray-on hair in a can.
I got my hair and my confidence back,
and so much more.
Wow.
That's it. I need top fuzzy. Now, where do I find it?
Spray-on hair in a can, available literally right here.
Oh, yes. Friends in a can.
And just like that, all eyes were on me.
And look! He even sent us the can of friends.
Let me see that.
Do me. Do me. Do me.
So, you think I'll get more attention this way?
Say, "Dear Nephew Gobo."
Dear Nephew Gobo.
If anyone's gonna get the attention of the Wise Council,
-it's one of the four of us here. -Yeah, that's right. Come on.
Dear Nephew Gobo. I sound like him, don't I?
-Do it again. -I sound like him.
My friends don't think I can be on the Wise Council.
Well, sure, I wemble,
but I can make a decision when it's important.
Yeah. Like right now.
I'm gonna pick up this rock.
But do I want a bigger rock?
All right, troops, we need the Fraggles
-to eat the new goo sticks. -Yeah.
If just one Fraggle says they like the taste,
we can build a whole ad campaign around that.
Genius.
A Fraggle who's good-natured, but not too firm in his convictions.
-A Fraggle like-- -Small rock, big rock.
Big rock, small rock.
Big, small. Big, small. Big, small. Big, small.
Him. Doozers, that's our Fraggle.
Dog cookie for good, good, good Sporcket.
Sporcket. Good, good, good.
Good, Spork. Good.
Outside.
Treat boy for Sprocket.
Time play. Maximum superfetch.
Hey, buddy.
-Now that's a shirt. -What?
The name's Hammer. Jack Hammer. You know--
All right. Good kid, what's your name?
Wembley.
Your voice has got strength.
It does?
You bet. Wembley, I'll level with you.
-Wrench. -Sorry, Mr. Hammer.
We got big problems in Doozerland.
And, frankly, only you can help.
Wembley, Fraggles aren't eating the buildings.
It's a big problem,
or was until our spokes-Fraggle came along.
Spokes-Fraggle?
You get to tell the other Fraggles that these Doozer sticks are special.
Well, what makes them special?
See that goo?
It makes stronger sticks and taller buildings.
But we can't build without room. And we won't have room…
Unless the Fraggles eat the buildings.
Correcto-spamundo.
If only they knew how special it was.
It would be a crying shame if Fraggles didn't give him--
I mean, it, a chance.
Yeah. Yeah. It deserves a chance.
Just like me on the Wise Council.
But I've eaten the new sticks, and I'm not sure I really like the taste.
That was before.
How about you taste them again, as if for the very first time.
Hey. Here you go.
"Mmm, mmm, mmm" is right. Good!
Well, I guess I like it.
Perfect.
Wembley, you're gonna be huge.
What?
You could be a great Fraggle king
Who, me? No, I'm just Wembley.
You could be a coward
You could be a king
You could be the kind of kid Who teaches us to sing
You could be Whatever your little heart desires
You could be a walking, talking Breathing ball of fire
Sometimes a mountain
Sometimes a stone
Sometimes a river winding round To find a home
You could crawl away
You could fly higher
You could be a walking, talking Breathing ball of fire
You can be walking, talking Breathing ball of fire
Why do I keep wandering In my dreams today?
Why do I keep seeming Like so many mes?
How can I be turned around So many ways?
When will I know who I want to be?
Hey!
You could walk in darkness
You could walk in light
You could learn to follow Every dream you dream at night
I could?
You could be the person That you most admire
You could be a walking, talking Breathing ball of fire
I could be a walking, talking, breathing ball of fire?
Yeah.
You could be a walking, talking Breathing ball of fire
All right, kid. Go say what we practiced, and then walk away.
Yeah.
These taste awful.
Well, only the coolest Fraggles get it, so maybe it's just not for you.
And then walk away.
No, don't say "walk away." You just walk aw-- Just walk away.
Wembley! Walk away!
Right. Walking away now.
Hey! I'm cool.
-Me too! -Look at me getting it.
Joining a crowd makes me cool! Yeah!
Oh, yeah.
These new Doozer sticks are here for a limited time only.
Get 'em while they last.
Only for a limited time?
We'd better eat them before they're all gone.
They're organic!
More coming.
They're very mature.
They're sophisticated and complex.
It's working. And now so can we.
Everyone, back to work.
Hooray!
All right, Wembley. Every hip product needs a catchy jingle.
Let's do it.
They're the best thing around I'll say it loud
I love my Doozer sticks
One is never enough
Better hurry up And grab a Doozer stick
-I like it! -Yeah!
Hammer, you nailed it.
I'm a spokes-Fraggle!
I'm still not totally sold on these new Doozer sticks.
But I guess if Wembley likes them…
I'm proud of him. He's really getting himself out there.
I know. You can't miss him.
Well, if it makes him happy and it seems to make everyone else happy,
then, well, it must be good for everyone.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're really different.
Which is great.
That is delicious.
Wembley wear!
Get your Wembley wear!
It's him. It's him.
Say the thing. Say the thing.
-Say it. Say it. Say it. -Say it.
I like it!
-I love you! -He said the thing. He said the thing.
-You're welcome. -We like it too.
I love you too. Yeah.
Wow. I guess I had it in me all along.
It's all a lie, Wembley.
Uh-oh. Did that voice come from in me?
No. You have to listen to me.
What?
Hi. Cotterpin here.
There's a big problem.
The Fraggles are only pretending to like the Doozer sticks.
-What? -Look.
I am enjoying this.
Me too. So earthy.
Too bad they're only available for a limited time.
I could eat a skyscraper.
What do you think now?
So? The Fraggles are throwing them in the water.
It's not hurting anybody.
Really?
Your sticks… are melting into goo,
and the goo is giving all us Merggles--
Just a second.
Nonstop hiccups!
I don't know what to do.
On one hand, the poor Merggles.
But on the other hand, I've seen all the good
that the ad campaign has done for the Doozers.
What do you think, Cotterpin?
I think you've got the spotlight, and it's up to you how to use it.
Yeah.
Wembley, there you are.
We're about to announce the new double Doozer stick.
Everybody's going to be there.
The double stick, now with more stick.
Perfect.
Anyway, see you out there. We're all counting on you.
-No. Don't say-- -Bye.
It's gonna be so good.
-There he is. -There's Wembley.
Guys, listen. I'm--
They're the best things around I'll say it loud
I love my Doozer sticks
I like it. Yeah, yeah.
Listen, guys. I'm having a hard time making up my mind about something--
That's the old Wembley. Take a look at that guy up there.
-That guy is confident. -And cool.
-No. -And good under pressure.
-And sage. -Yeah. We are so proud of you, buddy.
We can't wait for the double-stick presentation later.
Speaking of which, let's get good seats.
-One is never enough, better hurry up -Hold on, hold on.
And grab a Doozer stick
I just--
Let's do it again.
Heavy stuff, huh?
So proud of him, you know?
-I'm so excited by this. -What's happening?
Good evening.
I'm Jack Hammer.
-Yes. -Yeah.
Look at this.
Fraggles, Doozers, coming together over their shared love of the Doozer stick.
-Yeah. -It gives me chills.
It's also cold in here. If somebody could handle that?
-I don't mind. -Rhonda, can you get that?
And now I give you Mr. "I Like It" himself…
it's Wembley.
-Wembley! Yeah! -Yeah, Wembley!
-Wembley! -Yes!
Hit it.
They're the best thing around I'll say it loud
I love my Doozer sticks
One is never enough
Better hurry up And grab a Doozer stick
I don't like it!
-Yeah! -What? No!
Well, I don't like the taste, and neither do any of you.
You're just pretending.
No, I really like it.
I can't. They're just bad. Chalky.
I'm sorry, everyone. But this isn't right.
You're not eating them. You're throwing them in the pond.
It's making the Merggles hiccup.
Thank… you, Wembley!
Look, I'm a wembler,
but there's no wembling about the truth.
We have real problems here in Fraggle Rock, and, well,
my lies just made things worse.
Well, that stops now!
The--
The ceremonial choosing sound has been sounded.
Wembley, you have impressed us all here today.
Will you join us on the Wise Council?
Wow.
Well, I guess I--
No. No guessing. I just will.
That's our Wembley.
I knew it would be one of us.
I didn't see this coming. That's what makes it sweeter.
See you back in our room!
-I live with that guy. -Lucky.
I know.
I know I'm not the spokes-Fraggle anymore,
but there is someone you need to listen to.
And that's my friend, Cotterpin.
So tiny.
Well-- Well, we can't pretend these problems are just gonna go away.
We're gonna have to take a pause.
Wouldn't that be hard?
Yes, but a great pause now
will make a greater, more sustainable change for tomorrow.
-That's right. -Makes sense.
Beauty. Beautiful. Beautiful.
Well, my work here is done.
But you didn't do anything.
Really?
-Or did I nail it? -What?
Jack Hammer out!
Yes, really. You didn't.
Sprocket!
Sprocket, what happened in here? Sprocket.
Did Doc Bot do this?
Doc Bot is your friend. Doc Bot is your friend.
Boy, Sprocket.
I tried to shortcut taking care of you, but that's just not possible.
I was only fooling myself.
From now on, no more robots.
Very good. Very dog.
It's okay. Come here. You're fine. Okay, okay, okay.
