- Hi, Jimmy!

You all dried off, boy?

- Yeah, thanks.

Gosh, that was a close call.

I want to thank you for saving my life.

- Glad to be of help, sonny.

- H.R. Pufnstuf?

Mayor of Living Island?

Terrific!

I never met a mayor before!

Pleased to meet you, sir.

- Well, howdy!

- How do, Your Mayorship?

- Pufnstuf will do.

- Mr. Pufnstuf, why did that witch try to capture me?

I don't even know her.

- You must have something she wants

and she can be pretty grabby!

- But I don't have anything she could possibly want.

- Oh.

Oh, thank heaven!

Get me out of here!

- What was that?

- Wow!

In all the excitement, I forgot Freddy!

This is my pal, Freddy.

He's the only talking flute in the world.

- Please, Jimmy, squeeze the water out of me

or I'll get rusty.

- Are you all right, Freddy?

- Oh, thanks, Jimmy!

Boy, that mean old witch almost drowned us.

- Well, I'll be hornswoggled!

A solid gold talking flute!

With a diamond skin condition.

I'll bet you're what she's after.

- Me?

Oh, my, Jimmy!

Let's get out of here!

- Don't worry, Freddy, I won't let her touch you.

Pufnstuf, can you help us get away?

- We better go see Dr. Blinkey.

- Dr. Blinkey?

- He's a man of great knowledge.

Also, head of my Anti-Smog, Pollution, and Witch Committee.

Now, fellas.

Oh, my.

Oh!

Stop that.

Don't!

Will you...

Now, boys!

Don't kick him!

Now, stop it!

Cling and Clang, stop that.

We're taking out the Rescue Racer, y'hear?

They try hard.

Follow me.

Let's go to Dr. Blinkey's house.

Hurry, hurry!

Bring that Rescue Racer.

Hurry, boys.

Come on, bring it right up here.

That's good.

Okay, now, hurry up, Jimmy.

Get on, get on.

Quick, now.

Good.

Okay, let's go.

Now, give it the gas.

- Look at 'em go!

Look at 'em go!

Well, even Dr. Blinkey won't be able to help them now.

I want that golden flute and I'll get it!

Right, Orson?

- Correct, as always, my Queen of Evil.

- Right, Seymour?

- Yeah!

I gotta hand it to you, Chief.

- Oh, when I get my wand warmed up,

I'm gonna give 'em such a shock!

I've just got to adjust the fine tuning.

- And until you do,

don't point it at me!

- Rest your burly beak!

Let's see what those goody-two-shoes are up to now!

- Hold, boys, hold.

Here we go, Jimmy.

Nice going, Cling.

You, too, Clang.

Come on, Jimmy,

Dr. Blinkey's is right through these trees.

Right over there.

- Hey, baby!

You're real cool, man!

Like, groovy!

- That tree is talking.

- Oh, everybody talks here on Living Island.

- Glad to meet you.

I think.

- How, little papoose.

- Look, Freddy, an Indian tree!

- That right, paleface.

They not call me Redwood for nothing.

There it is, Dr. Blinkey's house.

We'll go right in.

Uh-oh!

Watch out, Jimmy!

Quick, run for it!

Duck, Jimmy!

Golly, gee, that was awful!

I never saw a house sneeze before.

He should cover his door when he sneezes.

- Greetings, Mayor Pufnstuf.

Hello to your little friend.

- Good to see ya, Puffy.

- You're looking very natural.

- Hiya, boys, how are you?

Excuse me, Dr. Blinkey.

I know you're very busy,

but the witch is after my friends Jimmy and Freddy.

- Uh, who?

- I'm Jimmy.

- And I'm Freddy.

- Hoo!

- Jimmy and Freddy.

- I know that, Fun-stuff!

You ought to know by now that all owls say "hoo!"

Hoo!

See what I mean?

Oops!

Excuse me, I've got something cooking.

- Oh!

Careful, Doc, it's too hot!

- Ooh, oh!

Oh, my!

Oh, oh!

Oh, oh, my.

Those test tubes are right every time.

Little devils.

Well now, yes, composed.

Well, now,

what can I do for you?

- Please, sir, the witch tricked us here to your island

to steal Freddy

and we want to escape!

- The who?

- The witch, the witch.

You know, the ugly lady with the broom.

- Hoo!

- The witch, that's who!

- I know that!

- Anyway, these two young fellers wanna go home.

- Now, Judy the Frog knows a secret way

off Living Island.

But the witch has captured her and--

- Who?

- Now, don't you start that!

- Judy the Frog?

Uh-oh, looks like we'll have to rescue her

from the witch's dungeon.

- The witch's dungeon?

No, no, Jimmy, let's not go there.

She'll grab us!

- Not with this magic potion I'm brewing.

It's guaranteed to protect you

from the witch's spells.

And it's just about ready.

Oh!

Oh, oh!

Ooh, ooh!

Hoo!

Is there a doctor in the house?

- Witchiepoo, look!

Pufnstuf and Jimmy are heading toward the castle.

You'll soon have your golden flute.

- Oh, it's no fun when it's this easy.

I've got a job for Stupid Bat!

Keep an eye on the picture.

- All right,

if I can stay up late and watch the scary movie.

- Okay.

And if you're real good,

I'll bring you back a roach beef sandwich.

- Oh, din-din!

- Yeah, din-din, yeah!

- Stupid Bat!

I want to talk to you.

Stand right side up!

- I am right side up.

You're upside down.

- Oh, never mind, you ding-a-ling!

I want you to go out into the forest

and keep an eye open for Pufnstuf and Jimmy.

- Duh, right, Chief.

Duh, right, Chief, duh, right, Chief!

Say, which eye should I keep open,

the right or the left?

- Too many questions, dummy!

Now, go!

I'm off!

- By tonight I'll be off with a toot

with my very own golden flute!

Castle, castle on the moat,

who's the most beautiful witch afloat?

- Not you, you old goat!

- Oh, you're gonna get yours!

Ah-ah-ah, I'm frightened!

- Shh.

We don't want the witch to know we're coming.

Jimmy, hold that magic potion ready.

- Gosh!

You're not scared, are you?

Mayors don't get scared.

- Why not?

We're human.

I think.

- Here they come.

They're walking right into my trap!

Calling all evil trees!

Calling all evil trees!

Do you read me?

We read you, O gruesome leader.

- Pufnstuf and Jimmy are coming your way.

Grab them!

I want them taken prisoner, understand?

- Roger.

- Witchiepoo.

- Over and out.

I think that I shall never see

a tree that's as terrifying as me.

- Shut up, keep quiet.

Shh, here they come!

- Jimmy, I'm frightened!

Jimmy, look behind you!

- Pufnstuf, look!

- Hi, strangers, how about a nut?

- No, thanks.

- How about an orange?

- Or a peach?

- Duh, it's them!

It's them!

Oof!

Ooh!

But which one's the prisoner?

Grab 'em!

- Shut up, you dumb bat!

- You got us mixed up.

My brother's Dumb, I'm Stupid.

- Run for it, Jimmy!

Hurry up! - Hang on, Freddy!

- I've got him!

I've got him! - Help!

- Hold him tight! - Help!

- Let him go, you rotten tree!

- Ooh, ooh!

He kicked me in the root!

Ooh, ooh, ooh!

- Oh!

Oh, they're getting away!

They're getting away!

Quick, Orson, Seymour, after them!

- Ooh! - Out of my way!

- Drat the cat!

It's no use!

If I don't do it myself, nothing gets done around here!

It's the only way to fly!

I've got you now!

- She's on her Vroom Broom!

Run!

Jimmy, run!

- Hurry, Puf!

- This is as fast as I can go, Jimmy.

- Here she comes!

- The magic potion, Jimmy!

Dr. Blinkey's magic potion!

Quick, hurry!

Run!

Run!

Oh!

What happened, Jimmy?

Quick!

We have to get that magic potion!

Come on!

- Ah!

That's a no-no.

Oh, I've got you now, my lovelies!

- Now, see here, my good woman,

I'm the mayor and--

- Stand back, you overgrown salamander!

You're in my power.

- Let's run for it!

- Sneeze and wheeze, stand and freeze!

They're froze!

Gosh, Mayor, we're prisoners.

- Well, Jimmy, at least we did get into the witch's dungeon.

- At least she didn't find Freddy,

thanks to you, Pufnstuf.

- Yeah, thanks, Mayor.

Whew, it was hot under there.

- Sorry about that, Freddy.

Come on, cheer up, fellas.

- You know, Freddy, it's funny.

- Judy!

Judy Frog, we were looking for you.

- What are you all doing here in this terrible dungeon?

- These are my pals, Jimmy and Freddy.

It's a long story, but we're here to rescue you.

- Oh, how wonderful!

- Freddy and I were hoping you could show us

the magic path off the island.

- I'd be happy to.

But how are we going to get out of here?

No one's ever escaped from the witch's dungeon.

- Gee willikers, Jimmy,

we better put on our thinking caps.

Oh!

Oh!

- What is it, Freddy?

Do you have an idea?

- Yes!

Take me over there,

over to that window.

Hurry!

Hold me up, Jimmy, as high as you can.

Up near the bars.

- I've got it!

He once sang a note so high, it broke our milk pitcher!

- And now he's trying to break the bars.

Golly!

Do you think he can do it?

- It's our only chance.

- Blow, Freddy, blow!

Gosh, I hope he doesn't sprain anything.

- Come on, Seymour, make me beautiful!

- Please, Chiefy, I've only got six hands!

- Well, just don't stand there, start using them!

What was that?

Ooh, that was piercing!

Now I know.

They lied!

It's been with them all the time!

They lied!

Lied!

The flute's in the castle!

Ah!

- Now higher. - Higher!

- Please, let me help!

- Oh, I'll teach them a lesson!

I'll lock them up for a hundred years and melt the key!

- That almost did it.

- Higher!

- Quick, out the window!

- Here we are!

Oh, I'll get them now!

Open sesame!

- Sesame?

The name's Lester.

- All right, then.

Open, Lester!

Nobody likes a smart door!

Guards!

Guards!

Guards, the prisoners have escaped!

After them!

With a castle this big,

you wouldn't believe the servant problem.

Oh, well, to the Vroom Broom!

- Quick, I know a shortcut to the magic path.

- There they are!

- There it is!

The magic path!

Oh, isn't it beautiful?

Terrific!

- Oh, hurry, Jimmy, hurry!

- Quick, before the witch gets here!

- The witch!

- So you want to escape down the magic path, eh?

Well, how about some of this magic?

Oh, my, oh, my, oh, my!

- Pufnstuf!

The path is gone!

It disappeared!

- And so will all of you,

unless you hand over the golden flute.

Heed my warning!

You have just three seconds to hand over the flute.

One!

Two!

Stop!

I order you to stop!

Stop!

Oh, I'll get 'em!

Hit me in the crosswalk!

My wand!

Where's my wand?

Drat!

- Hey!

Hey!

- Hurry!

Hurry, Witchiepoo!

- This time I'm really gonna blast them!

Get out my spare wand!

Switch on!

Watch out!

- Duck, it's the Vroom Broom!

- There she is!

- She's coming after us!

- We're goners! - Oh, boy!

We need help!

Maybe the Four Winds can help us.

Hello, up there!

This is your mayor talking!

We need help!

- Howdy, partner.

We'll be glad to help ya.

- Thank heavens!

There's the West Wind.

- Oh, so, East Wind here!

- Hi, y'all.

I'm right here, too, sugar.

- Me, too.

- Howdy, North and South.

Now, all together.

A-one, a-two...

- Come on, winds!

Come on, blow!

- Blow! - Blow!

Hooray!

Hooray!

- Oh, those goody-two-shoes!

I'll get even with them!

Wait till I get my strength back!

- Witchiepoo, er...
