Conky 2000, hear me.
Today's secret word will be,
"Zyzzybalubah."
Good morning, Conky.
What's today's secret word?
Today's secret word
is Zyzzyba--
Excuse me.
There must be some sort
of mistake, Conky.
That's impossible.
I never make mistakes.
Never say never, Conky.
Look at this.
Zyzzybalubah.
That is correct.
That is today's
secret word.
Well, what does it mean?
There is no definition
in my data bank
for today's
secret word.
Then it's a mistake.
No. My data is
c-c-correct.
All right.
Whatever you say.
Does everyone remember
what to do
whenever anyone
says the secret word?
[All] Scream!
That's right.
For the rest of the day,
whenever anyone says
the secret word,
which seems
pretty unlikely,
scream real loud.
Ready?
Let's try it.
Oh, flowers.
[all] Yes, Pee-wee.
What's the longest
secret word
we've ever had
here in the playhouse?
Zyzzybalubah!
[all screaming]
Flowers, what secret
word's definition
cannot be found in
the dictionary?
Zyzzybalubah!
[all screaming]
Conky, are you
sure about this?
Yes, I'm sure.
Today's secret word
is Zyzzybalubah.
[all screaming]
Hey, Pee-wee,
here comes
the most beautiful woman
in Puppetland.
And she looks like
she's been to the library.
Hooray! Miss Yvonne!
Goodbye, Cowboy Curtis.
Thank you for giving me
a ride to the playhouse.
[horse neighing]
Oh, I'm sorry.
Thank you, too, Pegasus.
[horse whinnying]
[horse galloping away]
Good morning, Pee-wee.
Good morning, boys and girls.
Good morning, Miss Yvonne.
Your hat looks
just like a book.
That's because
it is a book,
Pee-wee.
Well, then, why are you
wearing it on your head?
I'm balancing it on
my head, Pee-wee.
It helps me
keep perfect
posture.
Oh. Ha ha.
Wow! I want to try it.
I have beautiful posture
just like you,
Miss Yvonne.
Uh-oh. I'll
get that for you.
Thanks.
[both laughing]
I was just on my way
to Puppetland.
Would you care
to escort me?
Certainly. May I
take your Zyzzybalubah?
[all screaming]
- May you take my what?
- Your Zyzzybalubah.
[all screaming]
It's a long story,
Miss Yvonne,
And an even longer
secret word.
- Shall we?
- Yes, we shall.
You've been spending
an awful lot of time
in Puppetland,
Miss Yvonne.
What's going on?
That's because I've been
posing for my portrait.
I'm an artist's model.
Oh, how are
my favorite artists
this morning?
♪ We're doing fine
We're really sailing ♪
♪ 'Cause today's the day
Of the big unveiling ♪
Oh, I can't wait
to see myself.
♪ Most of my paintings
Look like mush ♪
♪ But you inspired
My painter's brush ♪
♪ The first time I saw you
I knew that I must ♪
♪ Get me some clay
And sculpt your bust ♪
Mmm, busty.
And what did you
do, Cool Cat?
♪ I tore up some magazines
In the garage ♪
♪ Glued them together
And made this collage ♪
Oh, they're all
just beautiful.
Thank you so much.
I'll take 5 copies of each.
Me, too, in wallet size.
- Wow!
- Yeah!
Hey, Pee-wee,
Reba the mail
lady's coming.
- Hi, Pee-wee.
- Hi, Reba.
Hi, Miss Yvonne.
- How's this for posture?
- Beautiful, Reba.
Bye, everyone. Bye.
Bye, Miss Yvonne.
This whole bag of mail
is for you, Pee-wee.
They're pen pal letters.
Sure was heavy
on my head, though.
I have a headache.
- Ugh.
- Oh.
Why don't you sit on me
a while, Reba?
Oh, why, thank you, Chairry.
That would be nice.
Oh!
I love you, Reba.
Oh, I love you,
too, Chairry.
It's so nice to hear
that someone loves you.
Thanks.
[phone ringing]
Picturephone!
I'll get it!
Pee-wee's playhouse.
Pee-wee speaking.
Earthling, listen to me.
I am speaking to you
from the furthest
reaches of outer space.
Hmm. Good connection.
You sound next door. Ha ha.
Silence!
You are under my power.
My transport rays end
at your playhouse,
and in a moment,
you will begin
your journey
to my planet.
Let me get this straight...
Are you saying
we're going to
outer space?
Duh!
Transport ray.
I'm so sure...
Ooh!
Aah!
- Ooh!
- Aah!
Pee-wee!
- Aah!
- Ooh!
[all Screaming]
[rumbling]
[whooshing]
[thud]
Wow!
I'm a-scared, Pee-wee.
I've never been
to outer space before.
Me, neither,
and I'm scared, too.
Yeah, Pee-wee.
It's so dark out there.
Where are
we going anyways?
I'm not really
sure, Chairry.
We're on our way
to meet someone
or something
named Zyzzybalubah.
[all screaming]
What are you
doing, Reba?
I'm whistling.
It always helps me
when I'm afraid.
Could you teach us
how to whistle?
Well, sure, Pee-wee.
First, you rest
your tongue at the bottom
of your mouth,
with the tip against
your teeth.
Then you pucker
your lips like this.
Now, blow.
[blowing air]
[laughing]
No. Listen.
♪ If your friends
Are contrary ♪

You're feeling blue ♪

[laughing]
[all] Yay!
Let's hear it for Reba!
Thanks, Reba.
You're welcome, Pee-wee.
Now we all know
how to whistle.
And we're not
as afraid, are we?
Look how far away
from Earth
we are, Pee-wee.
It's way out there.
[Pee-wee] Wow! From
way out here,
the Earth looks
like you, Globey.
[Globey] Let me see.
Pick me up.
Look over there, Pee-wee.
There are some more planets.
We can see the whole
Solar system from here.
Solar system?
The Earth where
we live is
called a planet.
There are 8 other
planets that revolve
around the Sun.
And that's our Solar system.
The word solar means having
something to do with the Sun,
like solar energy.
What are the other
planets in our Solar system,
Globey?
Well, if Magic screen
will assist me...
Sure, Globey.
[Globey] Closest
to the sun is mercury,
then Venus.
There's our home, Earth.
Mars, then Jupiter,
that's the largest planet.
Saturn, then Uranus,
Neptune, and Pluto.
Fascinating. We're passing
all those planets.
Maybe we're going
to another Solar system.
Look, everyone.
We're approaching
another planet.
[Pee-wee] Wow! It's
kind of spooky-looking.
Do you think
anyone lives there?
Hmm, I don't know.
But it's too late
to turn back now.
We're approaching
its gravitational pull.
While we're landing,
here's a Penny cartoon.
Okay. I'll tell about
the Columbus story.
Columbus said one day,
"Y'know, I think
I should sail to China."
So he took lots of food
and the strongest men,
and he got
three brave ships.
And they sailed for days
and days and days and days.
And finally, they got
to this island.
And they thought
that was China,
except it was
really America.
I think there are, like,
pretty plates
and stuff in China.
and pretty silverware,
because why else do
they call it China?
[glass shattering]
Well, it certainly
doesn't look like Kansas.
There's not a sign
of any life.
No, wait.
Over there.
Here comes someone,
or something now.
Oh, quickly.
You must hide.
Hide? From what?
Who are you?
My name is Yvona.
I have just escaped
the terrible clutches
of Zyzzybalubah.
[all screaming]
This is no time
for laughing.
He intends
to capture us all.
I ran here to warn you.
Quickly, we must
leave at once.
Well, that'd
be great, Miss...
Yvona.
Miss Yvona.
Are you sure
we haven't met before?
Positive. Come, please.
He must not catch us.
We must flee.
[zapping]
Wow. I can't move.
Me, neither.
We're stuck.
It must be
some sort
of force field.
Pterri, fly!
Fly really fast!
Maybe you can
make it through the
force field and fly for help.
[nervously] Oh, all right.
Oh, dear!
Oh, it's too late.
No one escapes Zyzzybalubah.
[all screaming]
Welcome!
I am Zyzzybalubah.
[all screaming]
I'm so very flattered
to have the secret
word be my name.
What an honor.
You know, I've
been watching you
and your playhouse
for some time.
You seem to have
so much fun here.
So much fun,
I said to myself,
"Zyzzybalubah..."
[all screaming]
As I was saying,
I said to myself,
"Wouldn't it be fun
for me to have as much fun
as you seem to have?"
So I brought you here
to be my new friends.
So!
Let's have fun!
[laughing]
This guy's so funny,
I forgot to laugh.
Well, I'm not
going to remind you.
[laughing]
[zapping]
Oh...
You'll get used
to the force field
after a while.
It's always
been like this.
He tries so
hard to have
a good time.
♪ You'll feel better
If you whistle ♪
[whistling]
All right, my new
friends, I'm ready
for some more fun.
Entertain me.
Make me laugh.
We don't feel
like laughing,
Zyzzybalubah.
[all screaming]
Well, that's not
a very friendly
attitude.
You're no friends of mine!
That's right.
We're not.
How dare you!
I brought you here
to be my new friends!
Well, you've got
the wrong idea!
Friends are people
that you care about
and who care about you.
You brought us here
without even asking us
if we wanted to come!
And you haven't exactly
been treating us
the way friends
should be treated!
You're right.
I don't know how
to make friends.
The reason I didn't
ask you to come
is because
I knew you'd say no.
Nobody likes me.
[zapping]
I'll tell you what.
If you'll turn off
the force field,
we'll show you
how to make friends.
[electronic whooshing]
The force field's gone!
You know, if I
were meeting you under
different circumstances,
I think I'd want
to be your friend.
You would?
And I've always
felt that way,
except that you had me
locked in a cage.
You know, those force
fields you've developed
are really quite advanced
in their technology.
I'd love to hear you
explain how you do it.
You would?
Yeah, we all would.
Why don't you
sit on me, Zyzzy?
Me?
You're really
comfortable, Chairry.
What a friendly
thing to say.
Thanks, Zyzzy.
You're welcome.
See? You're already
making friends!
You know, Pee-wee,
I feel terrific!
This is the start
of something really
big for me!
I'm learning how
to make friends.
Can you all forgive me
for the way I behaved?
Of course, Zyzzybalubah.
[all screaming]
Now I better see
about getting my new
friends back home.
Oh, yeah. I forgot
about that.
I'll prepare
the transport ray.
Gee. I sure am
going to miss
my new friends.
I know. Why don't
you come back with us
and pay Earth a visit?
There's lots of people
to make friends with.
I can't wait.
Are you sure
it would be okay?
Sure I'm sure!
The more the merrier!
What about
you, Yvona?
Um, um, um...
Should I go?
Shouldn't I go?
Should I go?
Shouldn't I go?
Should I go...
Oh! How about
if I just wait here
for you to get
back, Zyzzy?
That would be swell!
Then I'd have a friend
to come home to.
Yes. Bye.
- Bye.
- Bye, Yvona.
Bye. Bye.
Ready?
I think we need
a countdown.
If the boys and girls
at home would count
down with us.
[All] Five, four, three...
Two, one, liftoff!
[rumbling]
[whooshing]
Picturephone!
Zyzzy, would you be a
friend and answer
that for me?
All right, pal.
Pee-wee's playhouse.
I'm Pee-wee's new
friend Zyzzybalubah.
[all screaming]
Oh, it's nice
to meet you.
Is Pee-wee there?
Yes, he is. May I
tell him who's
calling, please?
Yes, you may.
I am the King of Cartoons.
One moment, please.
It's for you, Pee-wee.
It's the King of Cartoons.
Thank you, Zyzzy.
You're welcome,
Pee-wee.
Hi, King.
Hi, Pee-wee.
Is everything
all right?
I was over
about, oh, an hour ago,
and the playhouse was gone.
Everything's dandy.
We just took a little
junket to outer space.
Outer space!
Well, would you
still like to see
a cartoon?
Would I? Ha ha.
Well, boys and girls,
Members of
the playhouse,
Old friends,
new friends,
and future friends,
let the cartoon begin.
[singing in French]
[tuba plays]
[all cheering]
This is Billy Baloney.
Hello, Zyzzy.
Hi, Billy.
This is my fire truck.
[bell rings]
I don't know
what this is.
Mmm...
This is broken.
You can't borrow this.
[snorting]
No, I'm just kidding.
You can borrow it.
That's one of
the cool things
friends can do together.
Well, Pee-wee...
This has been a long day,
and one I'll never forget.
Bye, Floory.
Bye, Reba.
And it was very nice
meeting you.
And I hope we'll be
friends for a long time.
- Me, too.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye, reba.
- Bye.
I'd better be going, too.
I've got to get back
to my planet
and play with
my brand-new friend.
Well, thanks for
all the adventure, Zyzzy.
No. Thank you, Pee-wee,
for teaching me about
the greatest
adventure of all...
Friendship.
Well, good-bye.
It sure was an
exciting day.
Your friends will
never believe you
when you tell them
that you met someone
named Zyzzybalubah.
[all screaming]
[screaming]
