(upbeat music)

- Whoa.

It's so crazy in here.

Look at 'em go.

They're having so much fun.

Whoa!

Ooh!

(heavy metal music)

Improbably Poppy.

(puppets clap and cheer)

- Woo! Yeah!

- Clean it up,

later.

Now!

I'm gonna trip and kill myself.

Just kidding.

I'm not actually like that.

Welcome to another episode of Improbably Poppy.

I'm Poppy.

Today's episode is all about education.

I love to learn.

I love to learn.

I laugh to learn.

Working on set, one of the first things they teach you is

that napping on the job is frowned upon.

Well then how do you do it, you may ask.

A neat little trick that I discovered is to simply

lie down on the floor.

But first, you need to place a ladder on the floor

beside you, along with a number of hand tools.

Place yourself in a position you might have reasonably

fallen off the ladder into.

And voila!

Take your much needed and well deserved nap.

If you get caught, you'll be treated

as a hero who worked too hard.

- Oh my God. Are you okay?

- Oh me?

Oh, I must have been working too hard.

And hey, if they take you to the hospital,

you may even get workers' comp.

- Do you want me to take you to the hospital?

- That would be great.

(cash register rings)

(cheerful music)

- Hello and welcome back to fucking with (beep).

I'm Poppy.

Today we'll be discussing, well,

let's say you have a percentage of something,

or I mean a fraction,

and you're trying to figure out how much more of

that you need to have one.

- I'm Joel.

- Right, sorry.

- Yeah.

- As always, I'm joined by Joel.

Happy Monday, by the way.

How was your weekend?

- It was good. - Good.

Today we'll be discussing

how many more fractions you need

to get your fraction to one or like, what is it?

A whole number.

- What have you got there, Poppy.

- This here is a fully precious bowl, as you can see.

Now, for those of you at home, we're gonna

to use our patented Joel cam to get a better look at the

inside of this bowl.

- Second, ah.

Mmm, ah.

Beans pow!

That's for the folks at home.

Pew!

- Great job, Joel.

That was for those of you

who are not in our studio with us.

(explosion booms)

- Did you say something, Poppy?

- I was kind of just talking to myself.

- Oh my God, Poppy.

Your, your voice.

Is not syncing up with your, your mouth.

- Are you serious?

- Well, what do we do?

You, you gotta fix this.

- Is this better?

- It's, it's a little better.

- What about now?

- It's getting there, it's annoying.

- This has never happened before.

- This is bad Poppy, this is so, so bad.

- Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

(dramatic music)

(screams)

(Poppy laughing)

- What's funny?

What's funny?

(Joel screams)

(throwing up)

(Joel slurping beans)

- Come on, let's go, come on.

- No, I don't do this.

This isn't what I do.

- A little more.

- Okay.

Please stop.

- You're in my room now.

- I don't wanna be-

(Joel screams)

Please put the gun down.

- Beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans,

beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans-

- Oh my dear God, it was just a dream.

- Yeah, everything's back to normal.

- Yeah, Okay.

What were we doing?

- Yeah.

- Alright.

Fucking with (beep).

Our next step is to figure out

how many beans there are in this bowl.

- Let her rip, Poppy.

- 1,

2,

3,

4,

5.

(heavy metal music)

Someone sent me this.

(paper crinkles)

I know you, do you think of me.

Nobody hears, but I see everything

left alone.

LOL.

Does anyone think I care?

Prom is (beep).

Stepdad is (beep).

Rap is (beep)

You won't live forever.

You don't even care.

I know you live in, LA.

Hide.

Try to hide.

Not from me.

Truth.

Find me.

Someone sent me this.

We're not all the same.

And in fact quite different.

Ew.

What is that squirmy thing?

Oh, just kidding.

It's a rat.

You're so unlike me.

Minus the ways in which we are similar.

Tell me about that.

Will you get any bigger?

And if so, when?

(calming music)

Mice, good or bad?

Is being covered in fur liberating?

(dramatic music)

What is the best sedative for rats?

Something that I've learned is that set several members

of my crew are people too.

Most of them, in fact, all with their own lives, memories

and interests outside of working on my show.

That's interesting to me.

So today I'll be learning about what one of them does.

Come with me.

Hi.

- What's up Poppy?

I'm I'm Boozy.

- Hi Boozy. Am I the best boss you've ever had?

- Sure.

Yeah.

Well, you're gonna become a grip

and I'm gonna teach a little bit about G and E.

- Okay.

What's G and E?

- Grip and electric.

- Oh! Are you the best grip in the world?

- Ah nah.

No, not by any means,

but hey, here's some grips right here.

And this is a C stand.

- Oh. What does C stand for?

- C stand stands for century stand.

Which means there's a hundred ways to use it.

Yeah, don't do that.

Put that down.

This is an apple box.

- Do apples come out of it?

- Yeah, no, dude, they don't.

- Look, I'm on tv.

- Well, Poppy, it looks like you're ready to be a grip.

- Thanks.

- The cigarettes and the beer are in the jockey box

and yeah, you're good to go.

- Thank you.

- [Boozy] Union rep.

- You're the best teacher ever.

- Congratulations, you're in the union.

- When do I strike?

- Whenever we want.

- Now I'm the best grip ever.

(upbeat music)

Education can mean anything really when you think about it.

As long as you're learning.

I learned something recently

when I accidentally booked two magicians for the show

because I forgot to cancel the first one I booked when I

found the second one I liked better.

So here to teach you a trick each are Pen and Paper.

- I am the magically-

I am, Blake!

- Solid - - This is the box trick

- of rope.

- Nothing inside - will pass through my

- body unscathed - Nothing inside

- no blood, no foul!

- But alas! - I take the rope

- Something is - I wrap around my torso

- Inside! - I take the rope

I knot, I pull, I pull, I prepare.

- You need to (beep) up 'cause I need to get through this.

- I am the most prominent-

- You're stepping all over my stuff.

- The most - My name is the

- magically Blake.

And here we are to speak about

an amazing trick.

One that you would love.

You Okay?

You stopped.

- I'm fine.

I'm pre, I'm preparing my illusion.

You see this?

Yep,

Damn, your wife was tight.

(audience laughs)

- That's our show.

Don't tell the other episodes, but this one's my favorite.

- So Poppy, now that you've mastered education,

are you just gonna stop learning things?

- Of course, Jubilee.

Once you've conquered the world,

there's only one face left to (beep) slap,

and that's your own.

Thanks so much for watching.

And now time for the musical performance.

Oh wait, I'm the musical performance.
