00:04The Bugaloos?
00:11Ehem...
00:13Eh-hem.
00:16How are you, mate?
00:18Sorry, Sparky, I didn't mean to give you a fright.
00:21What can I do for you?
00:22Oh, I was wondering if I could help you.
00:26Help me?
00:27You know, with your buggy.
00:28I'm kind of good at all that mechanical stuff.
00:30Oh, that's very kind of you, Duck, but I'm almost finished.
00:33Oh.
00:34But thanks for offering.
00:36Oh.
00:37Oh.
00:40Hi, Courage.
00:41Painting your safe, boy?
00:43Yeah.
00:44This red racing stripe makes it look kind of sporty, doesn't it?
00:46Yeah.
00:47Say, Courage, mind if I help you paint?
00:50Gee, that's nice of you to offer, Sparky.
00:52But I've only got this one brush.
00:54Thanks anyway.
00:55Oh.
00:56Oh, yeah.
00:58Oh.
00:59Uh, are you sure I can't help you set the table, Joy?
01:02No, thanks, but you're a dear for offering.
01:06Oh.
01:07Oh.
01:08Oh, IQ?
01:10Thanks, Sparky, but I'm just about done.
01:13No.
01:14I protest.
01:15You can't do this to me.
01:17No, I say.
01:19No, no, no, no.
01:21What is it, Sparky?
01:23What's the problem?
01:24What's wrong?
01:25I'll tell you what's wrong.
01:28I want a job.
01:29A job?
01:30Yeah.
01:31You're always busy working, and you never let me do anything.
01:35It's like you don't trust me.
01:37It's not that at all, mate.
01:39I just didn't realise.
01:40We trust you.
01:41There's lots of work you can do.
01:43As a matter of fact, I've got a little something I'd like you to do for me right now.
01:48You have?
01:49Right, pal.
01:50But it's only a little clearing up job.
01:52I'll take it, I'll take it.
01:54Well, I just finished tuning up the buggy, and I thought maybe you could go and collect up all the tools.
01:58Roger.
01:59We'll go.
02:00It's as good as done.
02:03Quick thinking, Harmony.
02:04We'll have to find some more work for him.
02:06He needs to build up his confidence.
02:08Right.
02:09He's so clumsy.
02:10I just hope he doesn't touch anything on the car.
02:13He touched.
02:14Help.
02:15Help.
02:16Whoa.
02:17Help.
02:18Get me down.
02:19Help.
02:20Get me down.
02:21Help.
02:22Help.
02:24The Buggaloos, the Buggaloos, we're in the air and everywhere.
02:30Flying high, flying loose, flying free as a summer breeze.
02:36Happy as a summer breeze.
02:46The Buggaloos, the Buggaloos, we're in the air and everywhere.
02:52That's a great idea, Joy, giving Sparky the job as a waiter.
02:56It was all I could think of, the poor little fella.
02:58He wants the job so badly.
03:00At least it's an easy job.
03:01He can't possibly botch up serving lunch.
03:04Psst.
03:05Here he comes.
03:06Here you are, everybody.
03:07Lunch.
03:08Get it while it's hot.
03:14I did it again.
03:15An easy job like that and I goofed.
03:18I might as well admit it.
03:20I'm a failure.
03:22I give up.
03:23You must never do that, Sparky.
03:25Joy's right.
03:26Giving up is the worst thing you could do.
03:28You know what?
03:30You're right.
03:31I'm not going to give up.
03:33That's the spirit.
03:34I'm going to get me a job.
03:36Good for you.
03:38But not in the forest.
03:39There aren't any real jobs here.
03:41Well, then where?
03:43Uptown.
03:44The big city.
03:46There must be lots of jobs there.
03:48You know, I'll bet you're right, mate.
03:51So you kids run along and play while I clean up.
03:54And after that, it's uptown for me.
03:57Well, can't we help you clean up?
03:59I made the mess, so I'll clean it.
04:01I know I can do that.
04:09Harvey Nichol, what a pickle.
04:11Poor little blighter.
04:12If he doesn't find a job now, it'll really wreck his morale.
04:16I'd say his chances were pretty slim.
04:18Unless...
04:19Unless what?
04:20Unless we get a fellow into town and line up a job for him.
04:22Without him knowing it, of course.
04:28Well, what do you think?
04:29I think we'd better head for town.
04:31In a hurry.
04:43Bonita doll, if I told you once,
04:46I've told you a hundred times,
04:48the answer is no.
04:49Why? Give me one good reason.
04:51Because every time I play one of your records,
04:54the entire radio station blows up.
04:57How's that for a reason?
04:59You heard him.
05:00Get lost, big mouth.
05:02Shut up, skinny.
05:04Petey, sweetie, believe me.
05:06I played this record in my jukebox,
05:08and it didn't break a thing.
05:09No dice.
05:11I won't play it, and that is final.
05:14But you must.
05:15The world has got to hear me sing.
05:18If you really want the world to hear your voice...
05:21Yeah?
05:22Get your own radio station.
05:26Oh.
05:27Oh, you...
05:28You...
05:29You...
05:31Play out of your mouth.
05:33I'll get even with you.
05:34I'll get my record on the air for everyone to hear.
05:37You just wait.
05:39Oh, Funky.
05:48BELL RINGS
05:53Any luck?
05:54Nope.
05:55No.
05:56There doesn't seem to be a single job available anywhere.
05:58Poor Sparky.
05:59They're really knocking for a loop.
06:01What are we going to do?
06:02Keep looking, that's what.
06:04Oh, hi, Peter.
06:05Hi, Peter.
06:06Hi, Peter.
06:07Hiya, kids.
06:08What brings you out of the forest on such a beautiful day?
06:12We're looking for a job.
06:14A job?
06:15We've tried everywhere, but without any luck.
06:17We're desperate.
06:18Oh, you poor kids.
06:20Well, look no further.
06:22I'm sure I can find you some work right here at the radio station.
06:25You really mean it?
06:26Of course.
06:27What are friends for?
06:28Oh, thanks, Pete.
06:30Sparky will be so happy to work here.
06:33Sparky?
06:34That little clut.
06:35But I thought...
06:36Oh, thanks, Pete.
06:37We really appreciate it.
06:38But I thought you meant you were the ones who...
06:40Oh, you're such a dear for doing this for us.
06:42I'd better get going before Sparky sees us.
06:44Please don't let him know we had anything to do with this.
06:46Shut up, Mike.
06:47Bye, Peter.
06:48Thanks again for the favor.
06:50Oh, think nothing of it.
06:52As I said before, what are friends for?
06:58Thanks anyway.
07:00If you get an opening, let me know.
07:02I'm great at delivering hot bread.
07:04Bye now.
07:07Job.
07:08Job.
07:09Oh, boy.
07:11Where do you get a job around here?
07:20Oh, well, uh...
07:24Help wanted?
07:25Oh!
07:26Oh!
07:27Oh!
07:29Hey, Sparky.
07:30How's the little ball of fire today?
07:32The job.
07:33The job.
07:34Could I please have it?
07:35Gosh, I really need it, Mr. Platter.
07:37Oh, please.
07:38The job.
07:39The job.
07:40Yeah, well, uh...
07:41Now, do you think you can really handle it?
07:43Oh, yeah.
07:44I'm great.
07:45I'm terrific.
07:46I'm...
07:47What do I have to do?
07:48Well, uh...
07:49I'm really good at that.
07:50Can I have the job, please?
07:52Please?
07:53Okay, Sparky.
07:54Okay.
07:55You're hired.
07:56I...
07:57I am?
07:58Oh, boy.
07:59A job.
08:00At last, I got a job of my very own.
08:04Yippee!
08:07Oh, brother.
08:09I got a job.
08:10I've got a job.
08:12When do I start?
08:13Right now, I guess.
08:15Yes, boss.
08:18You'll be sorry.
08:29I found that Peter Platter.
08:31Who does he think he is?
08:32Telling me he won't play my record.
08:34Yeah.
08:35The nerve of that little twerp.
08:36Telling me I had to get my own station.
08:38Why, for two cents, I...
08:40I...
08:41You'd what?
08:44I'd get my own station.
08:46Your own radio station?
08:48Himmel, what an idea.
08:50You are a genius.
08:52I know.
08:53I know.
08:54So how long will it take you to get Peter Platter off the air
08:57and me on it?
08:58Oh, that is very complicated job, my leader.
09:01You see, we must cross the lead-in wires
09:05at the radio station with our transformer cables
09:08and then switch the couplings on the negative intake attachments
09:11so that the power will go...
09:13All right, all right.
09:14How long will it take for the switcheroo?
09:16Oh, about a week.
09:18You will do it today.
09:22All right, leader, my pussycat.
09:24It will be done now.
09:25Off, Peter.
09:26See you.
09:27Just you wait, Peter Platter.
09:29Soon the tables will be turned
09:31and you'll be coming to me to play your records.
09:34Oh, I'm such a little devil.
09:42Faster, you must work faster.
09:45We're working as fast as we can.
09:49Just remember, if we don't finish today,
09:53our adorable, sweet fräulein,
09:56who we love so much,
09:59will have our heads!
10:01Now, pull!
10:04Schnell.
10:06Schnell, mach schnell.
10:08We must get the wires to the radio station.
10:11Balky, baby, could you hand me that stack of records?
10:15Sure thing, boss.
10:17Watch it, Pete.
10:18He's gonna drop them for sure.
10:21Oh, yeah?
10:22Well, watch this.
10:25Oh, oh, oh!
10:27See?
10:28I told you I could do it.
10:30Huh, beginner's luck.
10:38Shh.
10:41It's the radio station.
10:44We made it.
10:45Yeah, lucky we had enough wire.
10:48Don't stand there shivering like hyenas.
10:51Pull the plugs, schnell.
10:58Good.
10:59Now, we make the switcheroo.
11:05Now, back to the jukebox on the topper.
11:13Very interesting.
11:15Also tricky.
11:24Boss, we have done it.
11:26We have connected our wires to the radio station.
11:29Wunderbar.
11:30In exactly 30 seconds, Peter Potter goes on the air.
11:33And in exactly 31 seconds...
11:36Zoey, he goes off.
11:39And a new disc jockey is born.
11:42Get ready, world.
11:46Now, don't forget, as soon as I finish my theme,
11:49you hand me the first record.
11:51Dig?
11:52Dig.
11:53Gosh, my first show.
11:55Lots of luck, Mr. Platter.
11:57Wow.
11:58He'll need it.
12:03Welcome to another show, gang.
12:05This is your old pal, Peter Platter,
12:07playing the top pop picks of Platterland.
12:09To start things off with the help of my new assistant,
12:12Sparky Firefly,
12:13here's the number one sound for miles around,
12:15Cool It Baby, wailed by the electric jazz.
12:21Enough of that slap.
12:23Get him off the air and play some real music.
12:25Mine.
12:26A funky soccer tune.
12:32Look out.
12:33My boot blew.
12:34Help.
12:35Wow.
12:39Blimey, listen to that.
12:40It sounds like the whole station's just blown up.
12:42Heavens, what has Sparky done now?
12:44I think we'd better get over there fast and find out.
12:46Let's go.
12:48Oh, boy.
12:49Timber, just listen to that record.
12:52Oh, it's music to my ears.
12:54Peter Platter, you're through.
12:56Finished.
12:57Kaput.
13:07Oh, wowee, what happened?
13:09That's just what I was going to ask you.
13:12It was Sparky.
13:13He did it.
13:14I told you not to hire him.
13:16I didn't do it.
13:18I didn't touch a thing.
13:19Honest, I'm innocent.
13:21Innocent?
13:22Five minutes after I hire you, boom, the whole place goes.
13:26Stone the crows.
13:27Just look at the place.
13:28Come on.
13:29Blimey.
13:30Sparky.
13:31Sparky.
13:32Peter, you're up.
13:33Sparky.
13:34Yeah, we're okay, but the station's ruined thanks to him.
13:38No, I'm innocent, I tell you.
13:40I didn't do it.
13:42I'm innocent, I tell you.
13:43I didn't touch a thing.
13:45I didn't.
13:46Yeah?
13:47Well, then, if you didn't, who did?
13:49Huh?
13:50Okay, Funky.
13:51Now that we've gotten Peter Loudmouth off the air, let's get me on.
13:55Yeah, get her on.
13:59Success.
14:00Ach, mein neiten Gel.
14:02You are on the air.
14:05It's happening.
14:06It's really happening.
14:08Oh, where's my script?
14:11I'm just a nervous wreck.
14:19Hi there, music lovers.
14:23This is Chiquita Benita, the darling of the airwaves,
14:26here to bring you the nation's numero uno, two-no,
14:30as sung by the enchanting thrush, Miss Benita Bizarre.
14:34Blimey, it's her, Benita.
14:36What's that old hag doing on the air?
14:38Well, she threatened to get even with me.
14:40I bet she was responsible for the mess.
14:43Yeah, but how?
14:44Let's get over to her jukebox and find out.
14:47Yeah, hang tight, Peter.
14:48Come on, bugaloos, let's fly.
14:50Come on, Sparky, me old darling.
15:09It's Rufor and Tweeter.
15:11Did you see those wires?
15:12They must go from the jukebox to the radio station.
15:15That's what they must have crossed,
15:16they're not Peter's show off there.
15:18Why, that's no good.
15:19Let me at them, let me at them.
15:21Sparky, take it easy, Sparky.
15:24Those two blokes out there
15:25have still got that blinking zapper.
15:27Mates, I think we have a little wire crossing of our own to do.
15:31Look, here's the plan.
15:33And now the moment you've all been waiting for, world.
15:36The universe premiere of the record
15:38that will send chills up and down your spine.
15:41The voice that will win your hearts and ears over forever.
15:46Oh, maestro.
15:50We want Benita!
15:52We want Benita!
15:54We want Benita!
15:56Oh, who goes there?
15:58We're Benita's fan club.
16:00We come to worship at her feet.
16:02Just listen to her.
16:04It's the sound of angels.
16:06It's the sound of angels.
16:08It's the sound of angels.
16:10It's the sound of angels.
16:12It's the sound of angels.
16:14Just listen to her.
16:16It's the sound of angels.
16:19She's out of this world.
16:22Benita, my queen of the silver screen.
16:25I can't stand it.
16:27Benita, Benita.
16:30Ah, woofer, tweeter, look out behind you.
16:35Ah, look the other way, quick.
16:39Whoa!
16:41Whoa, whoa, whoa!
16:44Ah, I'm getting out of here.
16:46Let's rock on.
16:52Nice going, Harmony.
16:54Now let's get those wires.
16:56Come on.
17:00All right, Benita.
17:02You've had it.
17:04All right, mate, start pulling.
17:06Come on.
17:12Help!
17:14We did it! We did it!
17:16Help! My record!
17:18My beautiful record! What's happening?
17:20Help!
17:22I don't know. Help! Help!
17:25Now do something.
17:27You're standing like a dummy. Do something.
17:29I am doing something.
17:31I'm screaming for help!
17:34Help! Help!
17:38We got Benita off the air.
17:40Now Peter Platzer will be able to go back on.
17:43Kids, would you mind if we hurry along back to the radio station?
17:47After all, I have a job to get back to.
17:50Sure, Spock. Let's go.
17:59Don't go away, everybody. You've got to hear me sing.
18:04Oh, my record.
18:06My precious record.
18:08Oh, my precious record.
18:11I'll feel it.
18:15The world has to hear my voice.
18:17They've got to.
18:21I need a needle.
18:23A needle.
18:26I need a needle.
18:32Dear old bud, it's happening.
18:34Bud, run. Run!
18:36Don't worry, bud. I'll get it fixed.
18:41All this green
18:43Has control
18:45Of the delicate soul
18:48What a crazy thing.
18:50This nature girl
18:52This nature girl
18:55It's working, boss.
18:58If I wanna
19:03And now, gang, for my return to the air,
19:06it is my pleasure to bring you live
19:09my pals, the Bugaloo.
