FIND OUT WHAT YOU NEED
TO KNOW.
Messy looks through a magnifying glass.
He sings with the others, MESSY GOES TO OKIDO!
Zoom transforms into a screen that reveals the title, Messy Goes to Okido. Messy jumps beside the screen and smiles.
In a bedroom, socks are tossed from under the bed to the floor.
Messy says, WHERE IS IT?
WHERE IS IT?
He slides out from under the bed.
Messy says, OH, HELLO!
I'M LOOKING FOR MY SPECIAL
THINGS BOX.
The episode title reads, Pongberry. Written by Neil Bennun.
Messy says, I PUT SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL
INSIDE.
CAN YOU GUESS WHAT?
Messy grins.
He says, NO?
Messy jumps out from under the bed and onto his feet.
He says, IT'S CARROTS!
Messy dances.
He sings, CRISPY, CRUNCHY, VERY, VERY
MUNCHY!
AFTER SOCKS, THEY'RE MY
FAVOURITE LUNCHY!
Messy says, BUT I'VE MADE SUCH AN AMAZING
MESS.
I CAN'T FIND MY SPECIAL THINGS
BOX!
He looks around.
Messy says, AH!
HERE IT IS!
He grabs a small wooden box covered in jewels.
Messy says, LOVELY CRISPY, CRUNCHY, CARROTY
CARROTS!
He opens the box. A bright light shines from the box. Messy sniffs inside the box.
[Messy sniffing]
Messy groans, AW!
Mould grows on carrots inside the box.
[Messy groaning]
Messy says, UGH!
He covers his nose.
Messy says, THEY SMELL TERRIBLE.
AND THEY LOOK EVEN WORSE.
WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO MY LOVELY
CARROTS?
He closes the box.
Messy says, HMM.
WHEN YOU NEED TO KNOW, GO TO
OKIDO!
[Magical music plays]
A green and white tunnel transports Messy to Okido, where he falls through the sky onto spring platforms and off a trampoline. In the city, Zoe and Felix stand outside Geoffrey’s shop with Geoffrey and Zoom. The group stares at a large, orange, ball-shaped fruit on a table.
From close by, Messy says, HELLO, EVERYONE!
[Messy screaming]
Messy falls toward the group.
[Gasping]
Zoe says, WATCH OUT, MESSY!
Geoffrey says, MESSY, NO!
Messy closes his eyes as he falls toward the orange fruit. Zoom, in the shape of a net, catches Messy.
[Geoffrey sighing in relief]
Geoffrey says, OH, DISASTER AVERTED.
THANK YOU, ZOOM.
YOU SAVED THE PONGBERRY!
He hugs the orange fruit, the pongberry. Zoom transforms back to his normal shape. Messy stands beside the pongberry.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy smells the pongberry.
[Sniffing]
Messy says, OH!
IT SMELLS DELICIOUS!
Zoe says, IT'S THE RAREST, TASTIEST
BERRY ANYWHERE IN OKIDO!
Geoffrey nods.
Felix says, IT ONLY SPROUTS ONCE A YEAR
ON THE HOTTEST DAY!
Zoe, Felix, and Geoffrey say, PONGBERRY PIE DAY!
[Zoom chittering]
Geoffrey says, IF YOU'D SQUISHED THAT
PONGBERRY, MESSY, THERE WOULD BE
NO PONGBERRY PIE AND NO
PONGBERRY PIE DAY.
Messy gazes at the pongberry and wiggles his fingers.
Messy says, OH, HOW VERY INTERESTING,
PONGBERRY –
I MEAN, GEOFFREY.
Messy shakes his head.
He says, PONGBERRY IS THE BEST THING I
HAVE EVER SMELLED WITH MY NOSE.
Messy smells the pongberry.
[Sniffing]
Geoffrey says, OOH, IT SMELLS GOOD NOW, BUT
NOTHING STAYS FRESH FOREVER, AND
WHEN THE PONGBERRY GOES OFF, IT
SMELLS SO BAD PEOPLE SCREAM AND
RUN AWAY.
He plugs his nose.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy says, BUT IT LOOK SO JUICY, ORANGE,
SLURPY.
[Messy shivering]
Geoffrey asks, WHO WANTS TO HELP ME MAKE THE
PONGBERRY PIE?
Zoe says, ME, ME!
Felix says, ME, ME, I DO!
Felix asks, WANT TO HELP, MESSY?
[Zoom chittering]
[Munching]
Felix says, MESSY?
[Dramatic music plays]
[Munching]
Messy sits on the now empty pongberry table and licks his lips. Pongberry covers his face.
[Slurping]
[Messy belching]
[Messy, Zoe, and Felix laughing]
Zoe says, MESSY!
Felix says, OH, MESSY!
Geoffrey looks shocked.
He wails, NO!
PONGBERRY PIE DAY IS RUINED!
Geoffrey lays his head on the table.
Messy says, OH, SORRY, GEOFFREY.
IT'S JUST I'VE NEVER SMELLED
ANYTHING SO JUICY, AND TASTY,
AND...
[Messy sniffing]
Messy says, WITH MY MONSTER NOSE, I CAN
SMELL ANOTHER PONGBERRY!
I'LL GO AND GET IT AND BRING IT
RIGHT BACK!
[Messy whistling]
[Okidoodle honking]
Okidoodle is parked on the road beside Messy.
Messy says, LET'S SKIDOODLE, OKIDOODLE!
He hops in Okidoodle with Zoom and drives away. Geoffrey bangs his head on the table. Zoe and Felix share a look. Elsewhere in Okido, Messy follows a scent on a sidewalk.
[Messy sniffing]
Zoom follows Messy around the city. In Lolly’s ice cream van, Lolly serves a monster an ice cream cone. Messy and Zoom appear behind Lolly.
Lolly yelps, OOH!
In the cloud ship, Messy and Zoom appear in the lab beside Zam.
Zam yelps, OH!
Messy and Zoom appear from underground in a monster’s carrot garden.
The monster yelps, OH, MY!
On a beach, a young monster builds a sandcastle. Messy and Zoom appear from underground under two other sandcastles.
The young monster says, HEY!
In Mayor Oki’s apartment, Mayor Oki brushes his teeth. Through the reflection in the mirror, Messy and Zoom appear in the window behind Mayor Oki. Messy and Zoom awkwardly smile and leave the window.
[Zoom chittering]
In the countryside, Messy hides behind a bush growing small, red fruit with Zoom.
Messy says, IT'S HERE!
He jumps into a bush and smells one of the small, red fruits.
[Messy sniffing]
[Zoom chittering]
Messy says, UGH!
THAT'S NOT A PONGBERRY.
IT'S A HORRIBLE, GOOEY, OLD
STRAWBERRY.
Rock giant Lofty asks, WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR,
MESSY?
Messy says, says, LOFTY!
WE'RE LOOKING FOR A PONGBERRY
FOR GEOFFREY'S PONGBERRY PIE,
BUT ALL WE'VE FOUND IS THIS
SQUISHY, OLD STRAWBERRY.
[Zoom chittering]
[Messy groaning]
He asks, WHY DOES TASTY FOOD HAVE TO GO
OFF?
Lofty says, OOH, I KNOW THIS!
FOOD GOES OFF BECAUSE OF
INCREDIBLY TINY THINGS CALLED
"FUNGI" AND "BACTERIA."
Messy says, "BA-CA-TERIA"?
A "FUN-GEH"?
Messy sings, A FUNKY, FUNKY, FUNGI!
Lofty says, FUNGI AND BACTERIA CAN ONLY
BE SEEN UNDER A MICROSCOPE.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom transforms into a microscope.
Lofty says, SEE HOW THE FUNGI AND BACTERIA
MULTIPLY AND EAT THE FOOD FROM
THE INSIDE OUT?
Through Zoom, Messy watches bacteria in the strawberry multiply.
Lofty says, ONE WAY TO SLOW THEM DOWN IS TO
KEEP FOOD COOL IN THE FRIDGE.
Messy says, POOR STRAWBERRY.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom returns to his normal shape.
Messy says, FUNGI'S NOT SO FUN AFTER ALL.
HOW DO YOU KNOW ALL THIS,
LOFTY?
Lofty says, WELL, I AM KEEPER OF THE
SECRET PONGBERRY PATCH.
Messy says, WHAT?!
SO YOU KNOW WHERE THE
PONGBERRIES ARE?
Lofty says, I DO.
BEHOLD, THE PONGBERRY PATCH!
He stands in front of a pongberry patch.
Messy says, PONGBERRY!
He drops the strawberry and runs to the pongberry patch. Among colourful bushes, Messy frowns at a marble-sized pongberry.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy picks up the small pongberry.
He says, HM, THANKS, LOFTY, BUT IT'S
NEVER GOING TO BE BIG ENOUGH FOR
GEOFFREY TO PUT ON HIS PONGBERRY
PIE.
[Lofty chuckling]
Lofty asks, HOW ABOUT THIS ONE?
He lifts his foot, revealing a giant pongberry.
Messy cheers, BALA-BALA-BOOM-BOOM!
THAT PONGBERRY'S A MONSTER!
[Zoom chittering]
Messy tosses the small pongberry aside and runs toward the big pongberry. The small pongberry bounces across the road and into Okidoodle. In the pongberry field, Messy hugs the big pongberry.
Messy says, OOH, PONGBERRY!
[Zoom chittering]
Messy and Zoom push the big pongberry.
[Messy grunting]
Lofty says, CAREFUL, MESSY.
IF YOU BRUISE THE PONGBERRY,
IT'LL GO OFF VERY QUICKLY.
AND WHEN IT DOES, YOU'LL SMELL
WHY IT'S CALLED A "PONGBERRY."
Messy lifts the big pongberry into Okidoodle.
He says, DON'T BRUISE THE PONGBERRY,
MESSY.
[Messy sighing]
[Okidoodle honking]
Messy buckles the big pongberry into Okidoodle and puts on his seatbelt.
Messy says, THERE'S NO TIME TO LOSE.
WE'VE GOT TO KEEP THIS PONGBERRY
COOL!
BYE, LOFTY.
Messy presses a button.
He says, OOPS!
The pongberry’s seatbelt straps tighten.
Messy says, OH!
THAT WAS CLOSE.
LET'S OKI-GO!
He drives away. Zoom follows. Lofty waves.
Lofty says, BYE, MESSY!
In a snowy forest, Messy stops suddenly. The small pongberry bounces beside Messy.
Messy says, SNOW!
[Okidoodle honking]
Messy says, THAT'LL KEEP IT COOL.
QUICK!
SHOVEL IT IN!
He jumps out of his seat and slips on the ice.
Messy yelps, WAH-WAH-WHOA!
Zoom transforms into a hand and lifts Messy back onto his feet.
Messy says, SLIPPERY?
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom returns to his normal shape.
Messy says, THANKS, ZOOM.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom transforms into a shovel. Messy lifts the big pongberry. As a shovel, Zoom scoops snow into Okidoodle under the pongberry.
[Zoom grunting]
Grunting, Messy says, JUST A BIT MORE, ZOOM!
[Zoom shivering]
Messy says, ZOOM!
Zoom shakes. He is frozen in place.
Messy says, ZOOM?
He slides around Okidoodle and runs over to Zoom.
Messy says, OH, YOU'RE FROZEN.
I'LL WARM YOU UP.
[Teeth chattering]
Messy gently rubs Zoom.
[Zoom sneezing]
Zoom sneezes and stops shivering. Zoom hovers over the snow.
[Zoom chittering]
[Rumbling]
Snow tumbles down a hill and into Okidoodle. The snow fills the back seat.
Messy says, THAT'LL DO.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom returns to his normal shape.
Messy says, NOW, LET'S GET THIS PONGBERRY TO
GEOFFREY!
He jumps in Okido. Outside Geoffrey’s shop, monsters are gathered on the street. Zoe, Felix, Mayor Oki and Lolly watch Geoffrey pace in front of a large pie.
Geoffrey says, OOH!
WHERE ARE THEY?
IT'S NOT A PONGBERRY PIE WITHOUT
A PONGBERRY ON TOP!
Felix says, DON'T WORRY, GEOFFREY.
HE'LL BE HERE SOON.
Zoe says, I'M SURE MESSY'S DRIVING VERY
CAREFULLY.
Zoe and Felix share a worried look.
[Both gulping]
On a mountainside, Messy slowly drives down a snowy path. Okidoodle bounces on the snow. In the back seat, the pongberry shows signs of bruising.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy says, DRIVE CAREFULLY, MESSY.
A pair of monsters skate down the path and past Messy.
Messy says, OH, WE'LL NEVER GET THERE IN
TIME IF WE GO THIS SLOWLY.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy says, MAYBE IF I JUST PRESS THE TURBO
BUTTON A LITTLE BIT.
He reaches for a red button on the dashboard.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy asks, WHAT ABOUT JUST HALF PRESS IT?
Zoom shakes his head.
[Zoom chittering]
[Messy sighing]
Messy says, NO, ZOOM IS RIGHT.
I WILL NOT PRESS THE TURBO
BUTTON WITH MY FINGERS!
Messy presses the red turbo button with his tail.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy speeds down the mountain. Zoom hurries after him. Messy races around a curve on two wheels and bounces a hill. Messy approaches a fork in the road.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy says, IT'S OKAY, ZOOM.
I KNOW A SHORTCUT!
He races down the road. Zoom frowns and follows. The pongberry looks slightly bruised.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy turns onto the road on the right and drives up a hill. Two monsters on skis ride off a ramp and over the pongberry in Okidoodle.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy says, DON'T WORRY, ZOOM!
I WON'T LET THE PONGBERRY
BRUISE.
He approaches a ramp with an exclamation point warning sign.
[Messy wailing]
Messy drives off the ramp and into the air. Okidoodle falls. As a parachute, Zoom slows the fall.
Messy says, I TOLD YOU THIS WAS A SHORTCUT.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom lowers Okidoodle onto a narrow path. The pongberry looks more bruised.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom returns to his standard shape.
Messy says, IT'S MUCH HOTTER DOWN HERE THAN
IT WAS UP THERE.
He hops out of his seat. The snow in Okidoodle melts.
[Water dripping]
Messy says, HM.
WHY ARE MY FEET ALL WET?
He glances toward Okidoodle. Water from melted snow drips out of the back seat.
Messy says, OH, NO!
THE ICE IS MELTING AND THE
PONGBERRY'S GETTING REDDER AND
REDDER!
[Communicator beeping]
Geoffrey appears in a video call on Okidoodle’s dashboard.
A crowd chants, WE WANT PONGBERRY
PIE!
WE WANT PONGBERRY PIE!
Geoffrey says, HELLO!
MESSY!
WHERE ARE YOU?
EVERYONE'S WAITING.
MESS, IS THAT PONGBERRY GOING
RED?
In Okidoodle, Messy frowns.
He says, UM, ONLY A LITTLE BIT.
IS THAT BAD?
Geoffrey says, HURRY, MESSY!
IF IT GOES OFF, NO ONE IN OKIDO
WILL BE SAFE FROM THE SMELL!
Messy says, DON'T WORRY, GEOFFREY!
WE'LL BE THERE IN NO TIME!
He puts on his seat belt and continues down the narrow path.
[Zoom chittering]
The small pongberry on the floor of Okidoodle shows lots of red bruising.
Messy says, WE'RE NEARLY THERE!
[Zoom chittering]
Okidoodle wobbles.
[Messy yelping]
Okidoodle’s wheel stilts extend and lift the cabin.
Messy says, IT'S NOT ME!
IT'S THE ICY WATER!
[Zoom chittering]
Water drips out of Okidoodle as Messy continues to the city and swerves around another car on the road.
Messy yelps, AH!
OOH!
CAN'T STOP!
NO BRAKES!
He drives around a loo-de-loop. Zoom follows.
Messy wails, CAN'T STOP.
CAN'T STOP!
He zips past the crowd outside Geoffrey’s shop.
Messy says, A-HOO!
[Zoom chittering]
Messy speeds down the street toward the shop.
Geoffrey says, NO!
NOT THE PIE, NOT THE PIE!
[Messy screaming]
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom transforms into a parachute and grabs onto Okidoodle.
[Wheels screeching]
[Geoffrey gasping]
Geoffrey says, THE PONGBERRY!
Okidoodle stops in front of Geoffrey at the edge of the pavement.
[Okidoodle honking]
Messy says, THANKS, ZOOM.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoe says, MESSY GOT THE BIGGEST
PONGBERRY I'VE EVER SEEN!
[Crowd cheering]
Messy carries the partially bruised pongberry out of Okidoodle. Geoffrey smells the air.
[Sniffing]
[Zoom chittering]
[Crowd screaming]
A robot on the street falls. Mayor Oki stands on the pie table with his nose plugged.
Mayor Oki announces, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS
A PONG EMERGENCY.
TAKE COVER!
[Crowd screaming]
Messy smells the big pongberry.
[Sniffing]
Messy says, BUT THIS PONGBERRY SMELLS GOOD!
He smells the air.
[Sniffing]
Messy looks inside Okidoodle.
He says, OH.
Messy spots the now red, small pongberry.
He says, HA!
ANOTHER LITTLE PONGBERRY, AND
IT'S GONE OFF!
GEOFFREY, CATCH!
Messy tosses the big pongberry to Geoffrey and grabs the small pongberry.
Messy says, EW!
He plugs his nose.
Messy says, ZOOM!
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom transforms into a baseball bat. Messy throws him the small pongberry. Zoom hits the pongberry into outer space.
[Bat cracking]
[Ball whizzing]
Outside Geoffrey’s shop. Geoffrey puts the big pongberry on top of his pie.
Someone says, OOH!
Another says, OH!
Mayor Oki says, MY MISTAKE.
I DECLARE PONGBERRY PIE DAY A
TOTAL SUCCESS.
[Fanfare]
Geoffrey says, THANK YOU, MESSY, FOR
BRINGING US THE BIGGEST
PONGBERRY EVER!
He holds a slice of pie.
Geoffrey says, THE FIRST SLICE OF PIE IS YOURS.
He gives Messy the pie slice. Messy eats the pie.
[Munching]
With his mouth full, Messy says, PONGBERRY PIE IS DELICIOUS!
Geoffrey, Felix, and Zoe eat pongberry pie. They nod.
Someone says, MM-HM.
Another says, MM.
[Messy sighing happily]
Messy says, IT'S TIME FOR ME TO GO HOME
NOW.
Felix, Zoe, Geffrey and others say, BYE!
Felix, Zoe, and Geffrey wave.
Messy says, BYE!
He returns home. Messy’s moldy carrots fall into a compost bin.
Messy says, YUCK!
He stands beside the compost bin on a kitchen counter.
Messy says, GOODBYE, MOLDY, OLD CARROTS.
He closes the compost bin with his tail.
Messy says, POO-WHEE!
EVERYTHING IN THERE HAS REALLY
GONE OFF, AND NOW I KNOW WHY!
[Cheerful music plays]
Messy says, BACTERIA AND FUNGI MULTIPLY AND
MUNCH FOOD FROM THE INSIDE OUT.
He stands on the floor near the fridge.
Messy says, YOU CAN SLOW THEM DOWN BY
KEEPING YOUR FOOD NICE AND COOL
IN THE FRIDGE.
NEXT TIME, I'LL KEEP MY CARROTS
CRISPY AND CRUNCHY IN THERE.
SOME FOOD DOESN'T NEED TO GO IN
THE FRIDGE.
LIKE SOCKS.
Messy pulls out a pink polka-dot sock.
He says, I'LL KEEP THIS IN MY SPECIAL
THINGS BOX, OR I COULD JUST EAT
IT RIGHT NOW!
Messy eats the sock.
[Munching]
Messy rubs his belly.
[Upbeat music plays]
Messy sings, BA-LA-BA-LA-BOOM-BOOM!

[Zoom chittering]
Zoom transforms into a microscope.
Lofty says, SEE HOW THE FUNGI AND BACTERIA
MULTIPLY AND EAT THE FOOD FROM
THE INSIDE OUT?
Through Zoom, Messy watches bacteria in the strawberry multiply.
Lofty says, ONE WAY TO SLOW THEM DOWN IS TO
KEEP FOOD COOL IN THE FRIDGE.
Messy says, POOR STRAWBERRY.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom returns to his normal shape.
Messy says, FUNGI'S NOT SO FUN AFTER ALL.
HOW DO YOU KNOW ALL THIS,
LOFTY?
Lofty says, WELL, I AM KEEPER OF THE
SECRET PONGBERRY PATCH.
Messy says, WHAT?!
SO YOU KNOW WHERE THE
PONGBERRIES ARE?
Lofty says, I DO.
BEHOLD, THE PONGBERRY PATCH!
He stands in front of a pongberry patch.
Messy says, PONGBERRY!
He drops the strawberry and runs to the pongberry patch. Among colourful bushes, Messy frowns at a marble-sized pongberry.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy picks up the small pongberry.
He says, HM, THANKS, LOFTY, BUT IT'S
NEVER GOING TO BE BIG ENOUGH FOR
GEOFFREY TO PUT ON HIS PONGBERRY
PIE.
[Lofty chuckling]
Lofty asks, HOW ABOUT THIS ONE?
He lifts his foot, revealing a giant pongberry.
Messy cheers, BALA-BALA-BOOM-BOOM!
THAT PONGBERRY'S A MONSTER!
[Zoom chittering]
Messy tosses the small pongberry aside and runs toward the big pongberry. The small pongberry bounces across the road and into Okidoodle. In the pongberry field, Messy hugs the big pongberry.
Messy says, OOH, PONGBERRY!
[Zoom chittering]
Messy and Zoom push the big pongberry.
[Messy grunting]
Lofty says, CAREFUL, MESSY.
IF YOU BRUISE THE PONGBERRY,
IT'LL GO OFF VERY QUICKLY.
AND WHEN IT DOES, YOU'LL SMELL
WHY IT'S CALLED A "PONGBERRY."
Messy lifts the big pongberry into Okidoodle.
He says, DON'T BRUISE THE PONGBERRY,
MESSY.
[Messy sighing]
[Okidoodle honking]
Messy buckles the big pongberry into Okidoodle and puts on his seatbelt.
Messy says, THERE'S NO TIME TO LOSE.
WE'VE GOT TO KEEP THIS PONGBERRY
COOL!
BYE, LOFTY.
Messy presses a button.
He says, OOPS!
The pongberry’s seatbelt straps tighten.
Messy says, OH!
THAT WAS CLOSE.
LET'S OKI-GO!
He drives away. Zoom follows. Lofty waves.
Lofty says, BYE, MESSY!
In a snowy forest, Messy stops suddenly. The small pongberry bounces beside Messy.
Messy says, SNOW!
[Okidoodle honking]
Messy says, THAT'LL KEEP IT COOL.
QUICK!
SHOVEL IT IN!
He jumps out of his seat and slips on the ice.
Messy yelps, WAH-WAH-WHOA!
Zoom transforms into a hand and lifts Messy back onto his feet.
Messy says, SLIPPERY?
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom returns to his normal shape.
Messy says, THANKS, ZOOM.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom transforms into a shovel. Messy lifts the big pongberry. As a shovel, Zoom scoops snow into Okidoodle under the pongberry.
[Zoom grunting]
Grunting, Messy says, JUST A BIT MORE, ZOOM!
[Zoom shivering]
Messy says, ZOOM!
Zoom shakes. He is frozen in place.
Messy says, ZOOM?
He slides around Okidoodle and runs over to Zoom.
Messy says, OH, YOU'RE FROZEN.
I'LL WARM YOU UP.
[Teeth chattering]
Messy gently rubs Zoom.
[Zoom sneezing]
Zoom sneezes and stops shivering. Zoom hovers over the snow.
[Zoom chittering]
[Rumbling]
Snow tumbles down a hill and into Okidoodle. The snow fills the back seat.
Messy says, THAT'LL DO.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom returns to his normal shape.
Messy says, NOW, LET'S GET THIS PONGBERRY TO
GEOFFREY!
He jumps in Okido. Outside Geoffrey’s shop, monsters are gathered on the street. Zoe, Felix, Mayor Oki and Lolly watch Geoffrey pace in front of a large pie.
Geoffrey says, OOH!
WHERE ARE THEY?
IT'S NOT A PONGBERRY PIE WITHOUT
A PONGBERRY ON TOP!
Felix says, DON'T WORRY, GEOFFREY.
HE'LL BE HERE SOON.
Zoe says, I'M SURE MESSY'S DRIVING VERY
CAREFULLY.
Zoe and Felix share a worried look.
[Both gulping]
On a mountainside, Messy slowly drives down a snowy path. Okidoodle bounces on the snow. In the back seat, the pongberry shows signs of bruising.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy says, DRIVE CAREFULLY, MESSY.
A pair of monsters skate down the path and past Messy.
Messy says, OH, WE'LL NEVER GET THERE IN
TIME IF WE GO THIS SLOWLY.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy says, MAYBE IF I JUST PRESS THE TURBO
BUTTON A LITTLE BIT.
He reaches for a red button on the dashboard.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy asks, WHAT ABOUT JUST HALF PRESS IT?
Zoom shakes his head.
[Zoom chittering]
[Messy sighing]
Messy says, NO, ZOOM IS RIGHT.
I WILL NOT PRESS THE TURBO
BUTTON WITH MY FINGERS!
Messy presses the red turbo button with his tail.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy speeds down the mountain. Zoom hurries after him. Messy races around a curve on two wheels and bounces a hill. Messy approaches a fork in the road.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy says, IT'S OKAY, ZOOM.
I KNOW A SHORTCUT!
He races down the road. Zoom frowns and follows. The pongberry looks slightly bruised.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy turns onto the road on the right and drives up a hill. Two monsters on skis ride off a ramp and over the pongberry in Okidoodle.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy says, DON'T WORRY, ZOOM!
I WON'T LET THE PONGBERRY
BRUISE.
He approaches a ramp with an exclamation point warning sign.
[Messy wailing]
Messy drives off the ramp and into the air. Okidoodle falls. As a parachute, Zoom slows the fall.
Messy says, I TOLD YOU THIS WAS A SHORTCUT.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom lowers Okidoodle onto a narrow path. The pongberry looks more bruised.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom returns to his standard shape.
Messy says, IT'S MUCH HOTTER DOWN HERE THAN
IT WAS UP THERE.
He hops out of his seat. The snow in Okidoodle melts.
[Water dripping]
Messy says, HM.
WHY ARE MY FEET ALL WET?
He glances toward Okidoodle. Water from melted snow drips out of the back seat.
Messy says, OH, NO!
THE ICE IS MELTING AND THE
PONGBERRY'S GETTING REDDER AND
REDDER!
[Communicator beeping]
Geoffrey appears in a video call on Okidoodle’s dashboard.
A crowd chants, WE WANT PONGBERRY
PIE!
WE WANT PONGBERRY PIE!
Geoffrey says, HELLO!
MESSY!
WHERE ARE YOU?
EVERYONE'S WAITING.
MESS, IS THAT PONGBERRY GOING
RED?
In Okidoodle, Messy frowns.
He says, UM, ONLY A LITTLE BIT.
IS THAT BAD?
Geoffrey says, HURRY, MESSY!
IF IT GOES OFF, NO ONE IN OKIDO
WILL BE SAFE FROM THE SMELL!
Messy says, DON'T WORRY, GEOFFREY!
WE'LL BE THERE IN NO TIME!
He puts on his seat belt and continues down the narrow path.
[Zoom chittering]
The small pongberry on the floor of Okidoodle shows lots of red bruising.
Messy says, WE'RE NEARLY THERE!
[Zoom chittering]
Okidoodle wobbles.
[Messy yelping]
Okidoodle’s wheel stilts extend and lift the cabin.
Messy says, IT'S NOT ME!
IT'S THE ICY WATER!
[Zoom chittering]
Water drips out of Okidoodle as Messy continues to the city and swerves around another car on the road.
Messy yelps, AH!
OOH!
CAN'T STOP!
NO BRAKES!
He drives around a loo-de-loop. Zoom follows.
Messy wails, CAN'T STOP.
CAN'T STOP!
He zips past the crowd outside Geoffrey’s shop.
Messy says, A-HOO!
[Zoom chittering]
Messy speeds down the street toward the shop.
Geoffrey says, NO!
NOT THE PIE, NOT THE PIE!
[Messy screaming]
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom transforms into a parachute and grabs onto Okidoodle.
[Wheels screeching]
[Geoffrey gasping]
Geoffrey says, THE PONGBERRY!
Okidoodle stops in front of Geoffrey at the edge of the pavement.
[Okidoodle honking]
Messy says, THANKS, ZOOM.
[Zoom chittering]
Zoe says, MESSY GOT THE BIGGEST
PONGBERRY I'VE EVER SEEN!
[Crowd cheering]
Messy carries the partially bruised pongberry out of Okidoodle. Geoffrey smells the air.
[Sniffing]
[Zoom chittering]
[Crowd screaming]
A robot on the street falls. Mayor Oki stands on the pie table with his nose plugged.
Mayor Oki announces, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS
A PONG EMERGENCY.
TAKE COVER!
[Crowd screaming]
Messy smells the big pongberry.
[Sniffing]
Messy says, BUT THIS PONGBERRY SMELLS GOOD!
He smells the air.
[Sniffing]
Messy looks inside Okidoodle.
He says, OH.
Messy spots the now red, small pongberry.
He says, HA!
ANOTHER LITTLE PONGBERRY, AND
IT'S GONE OFF!
GEOFFREY, CATCH!
Messy tosses the big pongberry to Geoffrey and grabs the small pongberry.
Messy says, EW!
He plugs his nose.
Messy says, ZOOM!
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom transforms into a baseball bat. Messy throws him the small pongberry. Zoom hits the pongberry into outer space.
[Bat cracking]
[Ball whizzing]
Outside Geoffrey’s shop. Geoffrey puts the big pongberry on top of his pie.
Someone says, OOH!
Another says, OH!
Mayor Oki says, MY MISTAKE.
I DECLARE PONGBERRY PIE DAY A
TOTAL SUCCESS.
[Fanfare]
Geoffrey says, THANK YOU, MESSY, FOR
BRINGING US THE BIGGEST
PONGBERRY EVER!
He holds a slice of pie.
Geoffrey says, THE FIRST SLICE OF PIE IS YOURS.
He gives Messy the pie slice. Messy eats the pie.
[Munching]
With his mouth full, Messy says, PONGBERRY PIE IS DELICIOUS!
Geoffrey, Felix, and Zoe eat pongberry pie. They nod.
Someone says, MM-HM.
Another says, MM.
[Messy sighing happily]
Messy says, IT'S TIME FOR ME TO GO HOME
NOW.
Felix, Zoe, Geffrey and others say, BYE!
Felix, Zoe, and Geffrey wave.
Messy says, BYE!
He returns home. Messy’s moldy carrots fall into a compost bin.
Messy says, YUCK!
He stands beside the compost bin on a kitchen counter.
Messy says, GOODBYE, MOLDY, OLD CARROTS.
He closes the compost bin with his tail.
Messy says, POO-WHEE!
EVERYTHING IN THERE HAS REALLY
GONE OFF, AND NOW I KNOW WHY!
[Cheerful music plays]
Messy says, BACTERIA AND FUNGI MULTIPLY AND
MUNCH FOOD FROM THE INSIDE OUT.
He stands on the floor near the fridge.
Messy says, YOU CAN SLOW THEM DOWN BY
KEEPING YOUR FOOD NICE AND COOL
IN THE FRIDGE.
NEXT TIME, I'LL KEEP MY CARROTS
CRISPY AND CRUNCHY IN THERE.
SOME FOOD DOESN'T NEED TO GO IN
THE FRIDGE.
LIKE SOCKS.
Messy pulls out a pink polka-dot sock.
He says, I'LL KEEP THIS IN MY SPECIAL
THINGS BOX, OR I COULD JUST EAT
IT RIGHT NOW!
Messy eats the sock.
[Munching]
Messy rubs his belly.
[Upbeat music plays]
Messy sings, BA-LA-BA-LA-BOOM-BOOM!
