[sniffs]

[grunts]

[sniffs]

I don't like the looks of it out there today, Wembley.

The hairy creature has a magic wind weapon.

Oh, yeah. I can smell its power.

Better be quick today, Gobo.

Phew.

[Sprocket barks]

Ohh. [grunting]

Ohh. Ohh.

The seashore can be a regular larder if you know where to look.

For example, this lovely load of fresh, nutritious seaweed.

Is that last load dry yet?

[whimpering]

Oh, what happened?

Sprocket, I know you don't like the smell of my seaweed specimens,

but what you don't understand is that when it's properly dried and prepared,

this seaweed is an excellent form of nutrition.

And just because you don't agree with me doesn't give you the right

to knock down my line.

[barks]

Your imaginary friends did it?

Oh, Sprackie, old boy, you get confused sometimes.

Yes, yes, this is an old house.

Yes, there are holes in the wall.

That's part of its charm.

[whimpers)

Sprocket, there are no little creatures living behind these walls.

That's your imagination.

And now Red is in the pond, fellow Fraggles.

She's ready to break Gobo's record for breath-holding.

Are her official timers ready?

-Ready. Ready.

The record is ten rock beetles.

With me counting, you sure could break it.

Oh, whatever you say, Marlon.

Uh, ready, steady, go.

One rock beetle.

Two rock beetles.

Four, five rock beetles, six, eight rock beetles.

Nine beetles, 12 beetles.

Fourteen rock beetles. -Four rock beetles.

Five rock beetles. -Fifteen rock beetles!

[gasping]

Eleven rock beetles. “What?

I did it!

But, Red, only got to five rock beetles.

No. I counted--

I was pronouncing the words, Mokey. She only got to three.

I was counting underwater and I got to 11.

It's a new record!

Red, Red, no. You underestimate.

I counted to 15 rock beetles.

Fifteen?

Yeah, sure. You're a born winner. Let's hear it for the champ.

[all cheering]

Pee-yew. What is that horrible smell?

[all cough]

Hey, Gobo, I just broke your record for staying underwater.

What happened to you?

I got contaminated in Outer Space.

Contaminated... What?

Yeah, the-the hairy creature had this magic wind weapon.

It blew our hair back. And then it caught Gobo in this stinky trap.

Gobo, I broke your stinky breath-holding record.

Didn't I, Mokey?

Huh? Oh, yes. I mean, well, practically.

She-she was this close.

I beat him by a mile. Eleven rock beetles.

No, Red. Fifteen.

Actually, they're both exaggerating.

So tell us more about your adventures in Outer Space.

I am not exaggerating!

Uh, true, sort of.

He is the one who exaggerates. Gobo wants all the attention.

Hairy monsters with magic wind weapons.

He wouldn't catch me making up a story like that.

Hey, just a minute, Miss Perfect Braids.

Red, Red, all Gobo is trying to say is

there are lots of strange adventures out there in Outer Space.

Yeah, wait till you hear this postcard. Whoo.

Pardon me, fantasy fans.

I'd sooner go and have my own adventures.

Huh.

Oh, what's with her?

You know Red. She always likes to be the center of attention.

Oh, Gobo, can I read this postcard from your Uncle Traveling Matt?

These guys are gonna love it.

-Be my guest. -Oh, boy.

"Dear Nephew Gobo..."

[Matt] Today while I was exploring the boundaries

of a very beautiful Fraggle pond,

1 discovered something truly astonishing about silly creatures.

I was walking along minding my own business when I bumped into one of them.

[Matt groans]

Naturally, I wanted to apologize for the accident,

but before I could, I realized that the silly creature had split in two.

Huh.

I felt terrible about this,

but the two silly creatures seemed almost pleased by the outcome of the accident.

Very strange.

Ah.

"In the meantime, love to all, your Uncle Traveling Matt."

[chuckles] Silly creatures splitting in two.

Oh, my goodness.

Yeah, the thing I like about Uncle Matt is that he never exaggerates.

Nothing but the straight goods from that guy.

-Yeah. -Yeah.

I wonder where Red went.

Yeah. Gee, you know, now I feel kinda bad.

I mean, we probably hurt her feelings, huh.

Nah. Red's tougher than that.

Why, she'll be back hogging the spotlight in no time.

So maybe I stretched the truth a little.

All I was trying to do was have some fun.

Oh, phooey.

Now I feel really dumb.

I hate it when I feel like this.

Whoa. Whoa.

Hey, guys, look at this. You're not gonna believe this, Whoa.

I wish I knew more Japanese.

It's, it's hard to tell what they mean in these recipes.

Oh, we'll just muddle along.

Oh. It's got more iron than spinach. You can tell by the smell.

Hey, you want to taste?

[whimpers)

I don't know why people keep thinking I'm exaggerating about this stuff.

Ohh. Wembley, maybe you should start by humming.

Oh, what am I doing wrong?

I think maybe your hands are too small, Wembley.

Oh, the curse of small hands.

Hey, hey, everybody. Come on, Mokey.

Ooh whoo hoo. Oh, boy. Have I got something to tell you.

[Wembley] What? -[Boober] What? What? What?

I saw a sea monster.

gasps] -You saw a what?

Areal live sea monster. I've never seen anything like it.

Yes. Red has discovered an entirely new life form.

Where, Red?

Well, I was sitting beside this pond.

And all of a sudden it came to the surface.

What did it look like?

Oh, well, it-it was, it was this big and, and had a magic wind weapon.

Uh, it had a magic wind weapon?

Yeah, yeah, it blew my hair back.

Wait a minute. That sounds just like the magic wind weapon that we saw.

-Yeah. -Yeah.

Don't you believe me?

Oh, come on, Red, get serious.

A magic wind weapon is what we saw in Outer Space.

I know you don't believe that Red saw a sea monster,

but, well, she does and she is our friend.

Well, Mokey's right. We ought to go.

-Come on. It's going to be fun. -Yeah, itll be fun.

-Sure. -Yeah, fun. Hmph.

And maybe later then we can go out in this hot sun and chase our tails.

He was only joking.

Oh, well, sounded good to me.

[sighing]

Nothing like an imaginary sea monster to make the day fly by, eh?

Yeah.

It was not my imagination. Was it, Mokey?

Well, heck no.

Are you sure this is the right pond, Red?

Of course I'm sure.

[water gurgling]

[all gasp]

Oh. Oh. Shh. Shh. This is the noise it makes.

Wait till you see it. It's this big.

Wow.

[gasps] There.

That's cave moss, Red.

Soitis.

Boy, Red, you really had us going. [laughs]

Ohh.

Yes, indeed. Top quality shenanigans.

Oh, well, what do you say we all go to the Great Hall

and play a game of Can't Touch Floor.

-Yeah. -Oh, yeah.

Red?

I do not want to play Can't Touch Floor.

I'm going to stay here until I see the sea monster again.

You're being awfully stubborn, Red.

I am not stubborn!

Oh, remember that. Red is not stubborn.

[laughter]

Bunch of Gorgbrains.

Ohh.

[sighs]

This is dumb...

I mean I'm dumb.

Well, maybe it was only my imagination,

but I could have sworn that, that I heard it make a noise.

[water gurgling]

Just like that noise.

Huh.

[whimpering]

[growling]

[shrieks] grunts]

Don't be afraid.

I won't hurt you.

Wow. I don't believe this.

It's the hugest thing in the universe.

And its nose is itchy.

[growls]

I'm Red. Who are you?

Oh, um, er, please, please don't go.

I mean, stay.

If only, if only you could tell me who or what you are.

I'am the last of the Lily Creatures.

You can talk.

Boy, wait fill they see this.

[growls]

What are you doing here?

I smell these lilies.

But how come nobody's ever seen you before?

I'am the last of the Lily Creatures.

Oh, this is too weird.

I don't suppose you'd mind if I brought a few friends over,

you know, just to say hi.

Uh, no fuss. Just be yourself.

I didn't think you'd mind.

-Yahoo! [growls]

Hey, guys. Come back. Come back, guys. He's here. He's here. Guys, come here.

And he told me he was the last of the Lily Creatures.

[chuckles]

Now, now, I don't expect everyone here to believe me.

Well, that's good.

Hmm. All I'm looking for is one witness.

Are there any volunteers?

Red. Red. Red. Take me, please.

Uh, are you sure you want to go, Marlon?

Red, Ilong to share the sea monster with you.

I crave such an experience.

Beggars can't be choosers, Red.

[all chuckling]

Let's go, Marlon.

Oh. Oh, boy.

They'll see.

Careful. -Gosh, I love her determination.

If you ask me, she's lost her sense of humor.

-Hey, I just had a great idea. What?

[whispering]

Gobo, that's not fair.

Well, I think she's taking this whole thing too seriously.

We've got to snap her out of it. Come on.

I wish this Lily Creature would show itself.

Just be patient, Marlon.

I'm as patient as they come, Red.

- have a vision. -A vision?

Once we alone have made contact with the beast,

other Fraggles will admire us greatly.

Well, of course they will. tl be terrific.

They will shower us with invitations, but we will have to turn them down

because we're so busy, so very busy with our full and happy lives.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about popularity. Having friends.

But... but what has a sea monster got to do with having friends?

You cannot understand the workings of a lonely mind.

-I get lonely sometimes. -You do?

[Red] Shh. There's his fin. Just like I told you.

My heart is pounding wildly.

Shh.

Surprise.

-What? [laughing]

Oh, Red, the look on your face.

Uh, we were only trying to make you laugh, Red.

-Yeah. -Yeah.

Why must they play such cruel jokes?

Don't let them get to you, Marlon.

Hey, come on, Red, where's your sense of humor?

Yeah.

You stay here and stand watch.

You're despicable, Gobo.

-Oh. -Oh.

[Red grunts]

But, Red, you've packed your whole life in there.

Yeah, I'm going to live beside that pond until I can prove my sea monster exists.

Oh, but, come on, Red, it was only a practical joke.

Why, sure. Oh, Red, we didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

Hurt feelings have nothing to do with it.

This is a fork in the road.

[sighs]

But, Red...

There's nothing we can do, Mokey.

She's dug herself in, and now she'll have to dig herself out.

[Marlon] Just one little pull of the rope and we'll have him.

[gasps]

What are you doing?

He won't get away from us this time, Red. [laughs]

What s all this?

Itis a trap of my own design.

Once we have captured the last of the Lily Creatures,

they'll never laugh at us again.

No, no, no, wait a minute, Marlon. This is all wrong.

Oh, no, Red, it's all right. I have a vision.

Aah. I see, I see a large sign that says, "Marlon's Monster Museum."

I see many Fraggles wearing special shirts with big pictures of me on the front.

And of course there will be shirts with pictures of you, too.

I don't want that.

But you said you understood.

The sea monster is the key.

The spotlight will be ours forever!

I don't want that kind of spotlight.

Of course you do. You'll make any sacrifice for it.

Look at you. You've left all your friends to move here.

Heh heh heh.

I made it all up, Marlon.

You what?

Uh... the story about the sea monster.

-Uh-huh? -I made it all up.

But why?

Well... Well...

Call it the workings of a lonely mind.

Heh heh heh.

Uh, Red, you are very strange.

Perhaps I, 1, uh... I'd better be leaving, huh?

Bye-bye.

Heh heh heh...

[sighs]

Now what?

Well, I guess I should get rid of this stupid trap.

[grunts]

[grunts]

Oh.

[sighs]

Oh, Marlon was right.

I was just trying to use the sea monster to get everybody's attention.

I didn't deserve to see it in the first place.

I mean, why would the last of the Lily Creatures

want to hang around with Miss Perfect Braids?

[Sea Monster] I like your braids.

Thank you for protecting me.

You heard?

I'am the last of the Lily Creatures,

if I cannot live here in peace, I cannot live at all.

Oh.

Can you keep me a secret?

Well, it won't be easy, but I will.

Could I come back and visit you?

Of course. We are friends.

Come when the lilies are in bloom.

I really do like your braids.

Wow.

Does that sound okay, Gobo?

Oh, it's sounding real sad, Wembley.

And that's good because this is a blues song.

Oh, yeah.

Play the whole thing.

I want to hear Mokey sing the sad words.

Okay. I only wish playing it would bring Red back to us.

Yeah.
