[Doc] Come on, Sprocket, up and at ‘em.
I want you to witness the first test of my revolutionary new radio.
It's an entirely new kind of radio, Sprocket.
So simple and cheap. Anyone could build it.
I want everyone in the world to have one.
[yawns]
Oh, I know what you're thinking, Sprocket.
"Why does the world need another radio?"
Because this is not an ordinary radio, that's why.
[sighs] -It's designed to pick up signals
from the other side of the world.
[grunts] -That's right.
And the parts only cost me $4 at the local hardware store.
Come on, now. It's time for the first test.
[static crackling]
I think I hear a foreign language.
[man on radio] Hey, hey, hey, friends and neighbors,
it's gala super-save weekend down here at Manny's Land of Carpets.
All the rugs you can carry for $27.99.
Manny's Land of Carpets will not be undersold.
That's the local radio station down the road.
It must be blocking the signals from the other side of the world.
Ned Shimmelfinney said this would happen.
I guess I better go and talk to them.
Radios are a great hobby of Shimmelfinney's.
He thinks he's a world authority.
Ha! What a joke!
[door closes]
[static crackling] [whimpering]
It's postcard time in the big cave.
What is that?
I better go tell the others about this.
[Boober] You see that area near the collar? It's still a bit damp.
Boy, you sure have good eyes, Boober. I never would've picked that out.
Alifetime of patient observation, Wembley.
Oh.
You know, sometimes, I can see a face in the fold of that sheet.
-Faces in the sheets? -Mmm-hmm.
-I see them all the time. Wow.
It's all part of the magic and mystery of laundry watching.
Mmm. Boy, this sure is neat. [chuckles] -Hey, you guys!
I just saw something incredible. You gotta--
-So did we. -Yeah.
The cuff on this shirt dried before the collar.
And I saw faces in the folds of the sheets.
What are you talking about?
Boober's teaching me how to watch laundry dry,
and it's really neat. [chuckles]
Grab a seat. The drama of drying has scarcely begun.
Wait a minute. I'm trying to tell you guys something very important.
What's happened, Gobo?
Well, there's this box blocking the hole to Outer Space.
A box? What kind of box?
A shiny, black box.
Why, I go up to the hole almost every day, and I've never seen this thing before.
I mean, how did it get there?
Wait a minute.
You don't suppose that this has something to do
-with that postcard. gasps]
What postcard?
-Uh... What postcard?
Oh, yes, this one.
It was in the pocket of that vest you asked me to wash.
Um, I didn't think you'd mind if I read it by mistake.
Oh, gee, I haven't even read that one myself.
What does it say?
Well. "Dear Nephew Gobo..."
[Matt] Sometimes, I wish all you Fraggles
could come out here and share the wonders of Outer Space with me.
Today, for example,
[found some of the smallest of the silly creatures
preparing for a very special ritual.
Excuse me, excuse me. Whoa!
They took me to a secret place to meet their magic friend.
And there he was, sitting on a throne.
The wish-granting creature.
According to my little friends,
this jolly old fellow came out of hiding once a year
to make secret dreams come true.
When my tum came, I said...
Would you mind arranging for Gobo and his friends to come up here?
It would be wonderful if they could see Outer Space.
Thank you.
He wasn't sure he could do that.
But he did say he would send you a present.
Wouldn't that be terrific?
"Love to all, your Uncle Traveling Matt."
Wow. Wow.
-A wish-granting creature. -Yes!
Do you think that's where this box is from?
Ooh! “Who else? Come on. Let's go get it.
-Yeah. -Now, now, wait, uh...
I might miss something.
Uh, those socks, for instance.
They're red now, but when they dry, they turn this beautiful soft pink.
Aw, but you gotta come. It might take three of us to carry it.
[Wembley] Yeah. -Carry it? Wait, whoa!
[snoring]
-[Doc] Shimmelfinney says I'm dreaming. [gasping]
He says that radio will never pick up signals
from the other side of the world.
Well, have I got news for Ned Shimmelfinney.
[whining]
Maybe now it's had a chance to warm up, we'll hear something interesting.
[man on radio] It's all-you-can-eat day at Bubba's Burger Bam.
Hamburgers, cheeseburgers, bacon burgers, king, queen burgers.
So, get on down here to Bubba's Burger Barn.
What's wrong with that? Oh, I give up!
I need a walk down by the seashore to clear my thinking.
I'm more interested in world communication than Bubba's Burger Barn.
[static crackling]
[panting]
There itis.
I've never seen anything like that.
Be careful, Gobo. It might be a trap.
Oh, don't be silly, Boober. Why, there's nothing to be afraid--
[static crackling] [gasps]
[Boober] What is that noise?
Look at the beautiful red light.
Wembley, Wembley, don't! Stay back.
-Ooh! -[Boober shuddering]
Aw, Boober, take it easy.
This thing is a present from the wish-granting creature.
[shuddering] But what is it?
I don't know, but...
I'm gonna find out.
[Boober and Wembley shivering]
[static crackling]
Listen to that.
It sounds like some kind of secret code.
[straining]
Oh, it's too heavy for me. Come on, lend a hand.
[babbling]
What are you gonna do?
I'm gonna take it down to the Rock. What else?
Well, couldn't we talk this over?
Aw, never mind him, Wembley. Come on, take the other side.
[stammers]
[Gobo] Come on, Boober. I don't know what you're so worried about.
This is a great day in the history of Fraggle Rock.
Yeah. -I don't like the noise it makes,
I don't like how cold and shiny it feels.
-It doesn't belong here. [Wembley straining]
-Okay, Boober, you take charge. [panting]
Now what?
[babbling]
We'll get Red and Mokey.
-Yeah, we'll let the group decide. -Yeah.
Okay, okay. Okay, go ahead and get them. I'l stand here and guard.
[qulping]
Wish I knew what this thing was.
[static stops] [gasps]
I wonder what this is.
-Hey, it turns. [static crackling]
[music playing] -I hear music.
[man on radio] Manny's Land of Carpets is having an all-day extravaganza.
Manny's got everything you want.
Manny's got everything you need. Manny wants you-
Me?
Yes, you, to get down here to Manny's Land of Carpets right now.
Your happiness is guaranteed at Manny's.
[Boober] There itis.
Hey, come on, you guys.
-[Red and Mokey gasping] -[Boober] No, stay back!
-[Red] Oh, wow! -[Gobo] Shh! Quiet.
[Wembley] It's this black, shiny box.
Aw, he's gone.
What? Who's gone?
I've just had the most amazing experience in my whole life.
What?
I turned this thing and I heard the wish-granting creature's voice.
[gasps] Whoa!
And he invited me to Manny's Land of Carpets.
[all] Oh, wow!
“Incredible! -Yeah.
What's Manny's Land of Carpets?
It's, it's... Well, it's this place where they guarantee your happiness.
“Whoa! -Doozling ditzies!
-That's my kind of place. -Yeah.
That thing is spooky.
[shudders] I vote we throw it down a crevasse.
Do you mean to tell me that
the wish-granting creature is inside there?
I don't know. He might be.
Boy, he'd have to be really tiny.
-Hello? Can you hear me? [screaming]
[static crackling] [all gasp]
Gee, maybe that means he heard you.
Yeah!
[stuttering] There's something inside there that's listening to us?
This is like a nightmare.
Oh, no, no, no, Boober.
Why, this isn't a nightmare. It's a dream come true.
Yes. Interspecies communication.
It's even better than drying laundry.
Hey, come on, somebody help me carry this up to the Great Hall.
Everybody's got to see this.
Oh, no.
Hey, hey, hey. What's all the excitement about?
A box arrived from Outer Space.
[gasps] -Come see.
[all exclaiming]
And when I turned this thing here, I heard a voice.
The voice of the wish-granting creature.
And what did the voice of the wish-granting creature say?
Well, he invited me to Manny's Land of Carpets.
[music playing] [all gasping]
1 ..In the world
Quiet.
[man on radio] That was Tammy Shrunk, singing "The Happiest Place in the World."
And, folks, Manny's Land of Carpets
is the happiest place in the world all day today.
-We're just waiting for you down here. [sniffing]
[gasps] -It's cold down at the seashore,
and I forgot my coat.
Manny's Land of Carpets.
Bubba's Burger Barn.
I just hate the thought
of innocent people on the other side of the world
listening to that... that nonsense.
I mean, what would they think of us?
I think this is terrible and hideous and awful.
[man on radio] Manny's Land of Carpets is the biggest and the best.
1 promise that if you come on out here, you will not be disappointed
because your happiness is guaranteed at Manny's.
That thing does not belong here.
What are you talking about? This is a present from Outer Space.
There is nothing in Outer Space except silly creatures and, uh, germs.
Well, maybe the excitement is too much for you, Boober.
You might be safer back in your own room watching laundry dry.
What a splendid idea. [scoffs]
Now what?
You heard it with your own ears.
The wish-granting creature invited me to Manny's Land of Carpets.
Wow. Hey, wait a minute. He invited all of us.
[all] Yeah!
You all want to come with me?
-Of course we do. [all] Yeah.
That's right, Gobo. You lead, and we'll follow.
[all] Yeah!
By the way, what's it like in the Land of Carpets?
Well, you heard him. It doesn't matter what you're looking for,
your happiness is guaranteed at Manny's.
All we gotta do is follow the road.
[cheering]

[all chanting] Manny's Land of Carpets!
There'll be lots of time for partying when we get to Manny's.
Let's get our stuff packed and get on the road.
[static crackling] Wait a minute. 1 think I hear something.
Hey, hey, what are you-- Large Marvin, don't touch that.
You might break it.
[man on radio] It's all-you-can-eat day at Bubba's Burger Bam.
-All you can eat? -So get on down.
Hamburgers, bacon burgers, cheese and queen and king burgers.
Excuse me. Hey, what are you doing? Don't touch that.
The wish-granting creature invited me to Bubba's Burger Bam.
It-- Bubba's what?
Burger Bam.
What's a burger bam?
Who cares? All I know is they give you all you can eat.
Let's go.
Ah, you're talking crazy, Large Marvin.
Well, you heard him, didn't you?
Why, yes. Bubba Burger Bam.
Yes. All you can eat.
[all chanting] All you can eat.
Hey, everybody, the wish-granting creature gave this thing to me.
And until he tells me otherwise, we're headed for Manny's Land of Carpets.
Oh, that's the spirit, Gobo. You lead, we'l follow.
Wait, what's so great about Manny's Land of Carpets?
Yeah?
The wish-granting creature made that perfectly clear, Red.
He said our happiness is guaranteed at Manny's Land of Carpets.
Do you know what that means?
That means all you can eat, plus a whole bunch of other great stuff.
And since I need this box to lead us, where we're going,
I don't want anybody messing with it.
Is that clear, Large Marvin?
Oh, he doesn't know what he's talking about.
-Bubba's Burger Barn is way better. -Yeah.
[chanting] Bubba's Burger Barn!
[chanting] Manny's Land of Carpets!
-Bubba's Burger Barn! Manny's Land of Carpets!
[chanting continues]
Quiet. Quiet, everybody. Quiet down.
What's the matter with you? [exhales]
That box up there is taking over your minds.
What minds?
[all laughing]
Look at you. You're huddled around a cold, shiny box,
listening to a silly creature who... who talks too fast.
He talks fast ‘cause he's incredibly intelligent.
-Mmm-hmm. -Face it, Boober.
-This thing is big magic. -Yeah.
[static crackling]
[woman on radio] Tired of whites that aren't white enough?
Colors that aren't bright enough?
Come again?
1am Sally Spotless,
and I know how to get your clothes perfectly clean.
Excuse me. You do?
At Sally Spotless Cleaners,
we care about clean laundry as much as you do.
She was talking about laundry.
Sally Spotless, laundry fit for a king.
Who was that?
That was Sally Spotless, a kindred spirit.
She appreciates clean laundry as much as I do.
Now, wait a minute.
I thought you said Outer Space was full of germ-laden silly creatures.
[all] Yeah. But you heard Sally.
"Laundry fit for a king"? It sounds perfect.
-When do we leave? Where are we going?
Uh, uh... 'm not sure.
Ooh, let's vote on it.
Allin favor of Bubba's Burger Bam, say, "Aye."
Aye!
[chanting] Bubba's Burger Barn!
[chanting] Manny's Land of Carpets!
[chanting] Sally Spotless Cleaners!
[all chanting] Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
[shouting] Wait a minute!
I'm confused.
First, the wish-granting creature
told me to come to Manny's Land of Carpets,
then he asked Large Marvin to come to Bubba's Burger Barn.
And then he turned into Sally Spotless and invited Boober someplace else.
It sounds to me like he's trying to split us up.
[gasps]
You're the one who's trying to split us up, Gobo.
We know where we want to go. Right? -[all] Right!
-Bubba's Burger Barn! Yeah.
“Manny's Land of Carpets! -Sally Spotless! Laundry fit for a king!
-Bubba's Burger Barn! -Sally Spotless!
-Laundry fit for a king! -Public debate. I love it!
Sally Spotless! Laundry fit for a king!
-Sally Spotless! Laundry fit for a king! -Bubba's Burger Barn!
Okay, enough already!
I need some time to think.
Bubba's Burger Barn! Bubba's Burger Barn!
This is ridiculous.
How am I supposed to know which way to lead them?
I can't blame them for being confused, though.
It's 0... confusing.
All you can eat, guaranteed happiness, spotless laundry.
Oh, why does the wish-granting creature
promise so many things in so many different voices?
Uh, something's wrong here.
All those places can't be perfect.
[echoing] Perfect.
[sighs]
I wish I knew which voice to believe.
[echoing] Believe.
It's so beautiful here.
I... [just can't imagine us all leaving.
The truth is, I think we should stay here.
[echoing] Stay here.
All of a sudden, I know which voice to listen to.
[all chanting]
Sally!
Bubba!
[Gobo] Quiet!
Well, I've decided.
We're going to Bubba's Burger Bam, right?
No! Sally Spotless Cleaners!
I don't think we should go to any of those places.
-But the wish-granting creature said-- -Boober.
There isn't just one wish-granting creature.
There's a whole bunch of voices in that little box,
and they all promise something different.
[stuttering] I don't care what anybody says.
I want to go to Bubba's Burger Bam.
-Sally Spotless Cleaners! Manny's Land of Carpets!
[all shouting and chanting]
Fraggle Rock has everything that those places have, and it's got more.
It's got us living together in a place we love.
And never mind the voices in the box.
Listen to the little voice inside yourself.
Well, the little voice inside me says,
-"Bubba's Burger Bam!" -Sally Spotless Cleaners!
Sally! Sally!
All right, all right! Have it your way.
[sighs]
We'll all leave Fraggle Rock, and you can go anyplace you want.
Let's go pack our stuff! Come on.
[all cheering]
But the least you could do before we go is...
is say good-bye to the... to the things...
-the things we love. [Fraggle] Hurry up.
