Transcript: The Up Up Balloon
A wooden spoon floats out of a magical blue mixing box with yellow stars.
[Cheerful music plays]
Singers sing, MIXMUPS, HERE COME THE MIXMUPS. MIXMUPS, MIX, MIX, THE MIXMUPS.
MIXMUPS, HERE COME THE MIXMUPS. OOH-OOH-OOH-OOH.
Orange text reads, “Mixmups.” The letter ‘i’ is replaced with the wooden spoon.
The Mixmups, Pockets, Spin and Giggle, pose beneath the text. Pockets is a blue bear with red pockets. She wears triangular red eyeglasses with a yellow star on each side. Spin is a red rabbit with a yellow lollipop-like antenna poking out beneath each of his ears. Giggle, who uses a wheelchair, is a yellow and light orange-striped cat. She holds Roller Guinea, a roller skate-wearing guinea pig, on her lap.
Yellow, red and orange confetti explodes in the air.
[Chiming, cheerful music continues]
The singers sing, MIX UP THE MAGIC, ONE, TWO, THREE!
The Mixmups gather around the mixing box in front of the House. Lucky Loover Bird stands beside a swing on a hilltop. Magical sparkles leave their trunk and flow towards the Mixmups. Roller Guinea and Yapette, Pocket’s guide dog, stand with them.
The singers sing, MIX IT, TWIRL IT, WHIRL IT, HEY! TIME FOR SOME MAGIC, ADVENTURE AND PLAY. MIXMUPS, MIXMUPS, HEY, HEY, HEY! MIXMUPS, HERE COME THE MIXMUPS. MIXMUPS, MIX, MIX, THE MIXMUPS. MIXMUPS, HERE COME THE MIXMUPS. MIX UP THE MAGIC, MIX UP THE MAGIC. MIX UP THE MAGIC WITH THE MIXMUPS.
Orange text reads, “Mixmups.” Lucky Loover Bird, Giggle, Roller Guinea, Pockets, Yapette and Spin pose and smile beneath the text.
Fluffy white clouds smile in a blue sky.
The clouds say, HMM.
[Upbeat music plays, birds chirp]
Lucky Loover Bird narrates, IN MIXINGTON VALLEY, THE MIXMUPS PLAY. WHAT KIND OF ADVENTURE WILL THEY MIX UP TODAY?
Yellow text reads, “The Up Up Balloon.” Smaller white text reads, “Story by Rebecca Atkinson. Script by Deborah Macdonald.”
In their house, Pockets and Spin eat at the dining room table. Giggle sits across the table and draws. Roller Guinea naps lying on the table by Giggle.
[Cutlery clattering]
Spin says, YUM, YUM, YUM, YUM.
Pockets says, AH, THAT WAS YUMMY.
Spin says, YEAH, APPLE PIE! I LOVE APPLE PIE!
[Pockets giggling]
Pockets says, ME TOO. WHAT ARE YOU DRAWING, GIGGLE?
[Gentle music plays]
Giggle says, I'M DRAWING CLOUDS.
[Pencil scratches]
Spin asks, UH, WHY ARE YOU DRAWING CLOUDS?
[Cutlery clattering]
Giggle says, JUST 'CAUSE, I LIKE CLOUDS.
Pockets says, THAT SOUNDS LIKE FUN. I'M GOING TO DRAW SOME CLOUDS AS WELL.
Spin says, YEAH, ME TOO.
[Paper rustling, bowls clattering, pencils scratching]
[Humming, clouds muttering]
Giggle sings, RAINY CLOUD, SO HIGH IN THE SKY. THEY TASTE JUST LIKE... UH...
[Roller Guinea grunts, marker scratching]
Spin sings, A BIG APPLE PIE!
[Everyone giggling]
Pockets says, I WONDER WHAT CLOUDS DO TASTE LIKE.
[Gentle music plays]
Spin says, YEAH. OH, IT WOULD BE REALLY GREAT IF I COULD REACH UP AND TAKE A SCOOP OF CLOUD AND THEN PUT IT IN MY BOWL TO EAT.
Spin pretends to eat clouds.
[Spoon clattering]
Spin says, NOM, NOM, NOM, NOM, NOM!
Giggle says, I KNOW, LET'S MIX UP A CLOUD TASTING ADVENTURE, AND FIND OUT WHAT THEY TASTE OF.
[Roller Guinea squeaking]
Everyone says, YEAH!
At a tree house, Lucky Loover Bird gets off their swing and walks to a small yellow door in the trunk.
Lucky Loover Bird says, OH, TIME TO PLAY.
[Gentle music plays]
Inside the tree trunk is a small stand with three vials, one with yellow liquid, one with blue liquid, and one with red liquid.
[Creaking]
In the house, the Mixmups put their ingredients in the mixing box. Spin puts a bowl in.
[Clattering]
Spin says, A BOWL TO PUT THE CLOUD IN.
Giggle puts the cloud drawings in the mixing box.
[Paper rustling]
Giggle says, CLOUD PICTURES.
Spin twirls.
[Slide whistle]
Spin says, OH, THE CLOUD SONG!
Everyone sings, RAINY CLOUDS, HIGH UP IN THE SKY. THEY TASTE JUST LIKE A BIG APPLE PIE.
[Gentle music plays, giggling, Yapette and Roller Guinea grunting]
Pockets asks, WHAT ELSE DO WE NEED?
Lucky Loover Bird blows sparkles towards the Mixmups.
[Gentle music plays, sparkles chiming]
The Mixmups cheer, MAGIC SPARKLES!
The clouds say, HM?
[Yapette barking, rock music plays]
Giggle uses the wooden spoon to stir inside the mixing box.
The Mixmups sing, MIX UP THE MAGIC, ONE, TWO, THREE. MIX UP THE MAGIC, WHOO-HOO, YIPPEE! MIX IT, TWIRL IT, WHIRL IT, HEY! TIME FOR SOME MAGIC, ADVENTURE AND PLAY. MIXMUPS, MIXMUPS, YEAH!
The Mixmups and the wooden spoon drop into the box. The box shrinks and disappears.
[Chiming, bonk]
The mixing box reappears in an empty white space, and the Mix-Ups and wooden spoon fly out. Giggle catches the spoon. The box unfolds, and a clearing forms, surrounded by trees and rolling hills.
[Rusting, popping, chiming]
The Mixmups sing, MIXMUPS, MIXMUPS, MIXMUPS, MIX UP THE MAGIC, ONE, TWO, THREE. YEAH.
Giggle says, OH! WHAT'S THIS PLACE?
[Roller Guinea squeaking, gentle music plays]
Three small creatures watch the Mixmups. The smallest holds a red balloon. They turn and run away.
[Gibbering, Giggle gasping]
Giggle says, LOOK, THE CLOUDS!
Spin says, HI, CLOUDS! WE WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU TASTE LIKE.
Two clouds smile down at the Mixmups.
Pockets says, WOW, THEY'RE SO WHITE AND FLUFFY.
Lucky Loover Bird arrives dressed in a white laboratory coat. They push a cart with the three vials, a microscope, and two beakers on the top.
[Wheels squeaking, gentle music plays quietly]
Lucky Loover Bird says, EUREKA! ONLY ME.
Giggle asks, UH, WHO ARE YOU?
Lucky Loover Bird says, TODAY I'M A SCIENTIST, OF COURSE!
Pockets asks, WHAT IS A SCIENTIST?
Lucky Loover Bird says, SOMEONE WHO DOES TESTS ON THINGS TO FIND OUT STUFF WE DON'T KNOW!
Spin asks, HAVE YOU DONE ANY TESTS ON CLOUDS?
[Roller Guinea squeaking]
Lucky Loover Bird says, OH, YES, CLOUDS ARE AMAZING! AND THEY HAVE ALL SORTS OF DIFFERENT NAMES. THERE ARE CUMULUS, CUMULONIMBUS, CIRRUS. OH, DID YOU KNOW THE AVERAGE CUMULUS CLOUD CAN WEIGH THE SAME AS AN AIRPLANE?
The Mixmups stare at Lucky Loover Bird.
Spin says, UH, WELL, WE JUST WANT TO KNOW WHAT THEY TASTE LIKE.
Lucky Loover Bird says, AH, I'VE NEVER DONE A TASTE TEST BEFORE.
[Mixmups sighing]
Lucky Loover Bird says, BUT WE COULD GIVE IT A GO!
[Mixmups cheering]
Lucky Loover Bird says, THE FIRST THING TO DO IS GET UP TO THE CLOUDS AND COLLECT A SAMPLE.
Spin says, HMM, WE JUST NEED SOMETHING TO STAND ON.
Lucky Loover Bird says, LET'S SEE. UM, WILL THIS DO?
Lucky Loover Bird takes a stepstool out of the cart.
[Clattering]
Spin says, YEAH, GREAT! I'M GOING TO STRETCH UP VERY HIGH AND GRAB A BIT OF CLOUD.
Spin stands on the top step of the stool and waves the wooden spoon in the air.
[Grunting, straining, Roller Guinea cooing]
Lucky Loover Bird says, OH DEAR, I DON'T THINK YOU CAN STRETCH UP TALL ENOUGH.
Giggle says,, WE NEED SOMETHING THAT GOES UP HIGHER THAN YOU, SPIN.
Pockets says, OH, I KNOW. A SKY CANE.
Pockets unfolds her cane and points it at the sky. Spin holds her hand as she balances on top of the stepstool.
[Cane rattling, grunting]
Pockets asks, AM I CLOSE?
Spin says, UH, NO, NOT REALLY.
The cane folds.
[Slide whistle, rattling]
Pockets says, WHOOPS.
[Yapette barking]
Pockets says, SORRY, YAPETTE.
[Everyone groaning]
The clouds look down sadly.
Giggle says, WE NEED SOMETHING THAT GOES UP, UP, UP EVEN HIGHER.
[Yapette grunting]
Pockets says, WE JUST WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE CLOUDS TASTE LIKE.
The three creatures walk past the Mixmups, the smallest holding the balloon.
[Gibbering, gasping, gentle music plays]
Spin says, I KNOW, LET'S SEND A BALLOON UP TO THE CLOUDS!
Lucky Loover Bird says, I DON'T THINK THAT WILL WORK. BUT WE COULD GIVE IT A GO. LET'S HAVE A LOOK IN HERE.
Lucky Loover Bird opens a drawer in the cart, and a yellow balloon floats out. Lucky Loover Bird grabs the balloon.
[Slide whistle]
Lucky Loover Bird says, OOH! NOW THIS WILL MAKE SURE THE BALLOON ALWAYS COMES DOWN.
Lucky Loover Bird ties a string attached to a reel around the bottom of the balloon.
[Creaking, upbeat music plays]
Giggle cheers, WHOOHOO!
Lucky Loover Bird gives Giggle the balloon and reel.
The yellow balloon floats up towards the clouds.
The Mixmups say, OOH!
[Animals cooing, slide whistle, Yapette barking]
Giggle says, AWW, WE FORGOT TO SEND SOMETHING UP WITH IT TO COLLECT THE CLOUD SAMPLE.
Spin says, AH HAH! WE'LL USE THE WOODEN SPOON.
[Reel rustling, descending music plays]
Spin wraps the string around the spoon and knots it.
Spin says, TA-DAH! OH.
The spoon sinks to the ground.
[Slide whistle, thumping]
Pockets says, IT'S NOT WORKING.
[Spin groaning]
Lucky Loover Bird says, AH, WE NEED A LOT MORE BALLOONS TO LIFT SOMETHING LIKE A WOODEN SPOON.
Lucky Loover Bird opens the drawer and three more balloons float out. The four balloons carry the spoon to the clouds.
[Creaking, chiming music plays, slide whistle]
Giggle says, OH YES, IT'S WORKING! IT REACHED THE CLOUDS!
[Mixmups cheering]
Pockets says, BRING IT DOWN, GIGGLE.
Giggle turns the reel and the balloon lower.
[Slide whistle]
Spin says, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT CLOUDS TASTE LIKE.
[Roller Guinea cooing, Mixmups sighing sadly]
Giggle says, THERE'S NO CLOUD ON THE SPOON.
Lucky Loover Bird says, I WONDER IF THERE'S A WAY YOU COULD TASTE THE CLOUDS WITHOUT HAVING TO REACH UP SO HIGH.
The Mixmups say, HMM.
In a thought bubble, flashbacks show Spin and Pockets standing on the stepstool and the four balloons floating up to the clouds and returning with the empty spoon.
[Popping, gentle music plays]
Spin says, I TRIED TO REACH UP AS HIGH AS I COULD.
Pockets says, AND I TRIED TO REACH UP WITH MY SKY CANE.
Giggle says, AND WE SENT THE SPOON UP TO THE CLOUDS USING BALLOONS, BUT THE SPOON CAME DOWN EMPTY.
The thought bubble disappears.
[Popping, Giggle sighing unhappily]
Giggle sings, RAINY CLOUDS, HIGH UP IN THE SKY. I WISH WE COULD TASTE SOME YUMMY CLOUD PIE.
Large raindrops fall around Giggle.
[Raindrops plopping]
Giggle says, HUH?
[Pockets gasping, rain pattering]
Spin says, OH! IT STOPPED NOW.
Pockets says, HMM, I THINK IT RAINED BECAUSE YOU SANG YOUR SONG, GIGGLE. I'VE GOT AN IDEA. LET'S SING THE SONG TOGETHER AND SEE IF THE CLOUDS RAIN AGAIN.
[Yapette grunts]
Spin and Giggle say, YEAH!
The Mixmups sing, RAINY CLOUDS, HIGH UP IN THE SKY. I WISH WE COULD TASTE SOME YUMMY CLOUD PIE.
Rain falls on the Mixmups.
[Rain pattering, cheerful music plays]
Spin says, HEY, IT WORKED! QUICK, STICK YOUR TONGUES OUT.
Large raindrops fall in the clearing.
[Giggle giggling, rain plopping]
Giggle says, MMM!
Spin says, OH, IT TASTES OF WATER!
[Giggle laughing]
The rain stops.
Giggle says, WE DID IT! WE COULDN'T ACTUALLY REACH THE CLOUDS, SO WE TASTED THE CLOUDS BY MAKING THEM RAIN.
Lucky Loover Bird says, YEP, AS I SAY, THERE IS ALWAYS ANOTHER WAY.
A rainbow forms over the two smiling clouds.
[Slide whistle, chiming, popping]
Pockets takes the glowing wooden spoon out of her front pocket.
Pockets says, OH, TIME TO GO HOME.
Pockets holds up the wooden spoon, and trees disappear as the mixing box folds back into a box.
[Chiming, upbeat music plays, whoosh, flapping]
Lucky Loover Bird waves to the Mixmups. Sparkles lift them and carry them back into the mixing box.
Lucky Loover Bird says, TOODLE-OO!
The magical mixing box reappears in the living room. The Mixmups lift out of the box and land on couch.
[Popping, chiming]
The wooden spoon flies out of the box, and Giggle catches it.
[Giggle giggling]
Giggle says, THAT WAS SUCH A GREAT CLOUDY ADVENTURE!
Spin says, AWW, LOOK!
On a table, a vial stand holds three sticks with white candy floss.
Spin says, WOW. CANDY FLOSS.
Spin takes a stick of candy floss.
[Roller Guinea cooing]
Giggle says, THEY'RE SO WHITE AND FLUFFY!
Spin says, OH, YES.
Spin eats candy floss.
[Munching]
Spin says, I WISH REAL CLOUDS TASTED LIKE THIS.
Pockets and Giggle each take a stick of candy floss.
Pockets says, I WONDER WHO LEFT THEM THERE.
At the tree house, Lucky Loover Bird puts the vials and stand back inside the tree trunk. They sit on their swing.
[Rustling, door creaking, gentle music plays, boinging]
Lucky Loover Bird says, MIXING UP ADVENTURES NEAR AND FAR, BUT HOME IS WHERE THE MIXMUPS ARE. BYE, MIXMUPS!
[Chiming, cheerful music plays]
