[Whistling]
Messy, a furry blue monster with a red nose and a blue tail, whistles.
He says, LET'S SKI-DOODLE, OKIDOODLE!
[Upbeat music plays]
Messy hops into Okidoodle, a blue and white convertible. He presses a green button on the dashboard.
Singers sing, MESSY GOES TO OKIDO.
Messy sings, FIND OUT WHAT YOU WANT
TO KNOW.
The singers sing, LET'S ALL GO TO OKIDO.
Messy drives through the countryside, past a pond, and down a road with dancing trees.
He sings, OKIDO, OKIDO.
The singers sing, MESSY GOES TO OKIDO.
Messy drives through Okido, a large city with tall, colourful buildings.
He sings, ALL THE THINGS YOU WANT
TO KNOW.
Messy drives onto a loop de loop and underwater.
He sings, COME ALONG AND SAY HELLO.
LET'S GO SEE OUR FRIENDS!
Messy runs into the cloud ship, a cloud-shaped airship. Inside, he joins a blue-haired boy wearing a striped shirt and blue hat.
Messy shouts, FELIX!
The singers sing, IN OKIDO.
A red-haired girl wearing red overalls and a red hat waves to Messy.
Messy shouts, ZOE!
Zoe high-fives Messy.
The singers sing, IN OKIDO.
Messy cheers, ZIM, ZAM, ZOOM!
The singers sing, IN OKIDO.
Zim, who has a square-shaped body and computer face appears with Zam, a green triangle, and Zoom, a pink ball creature. Zam’s science experiment explodes, filling the room with smoke.
Messy sings, BA-BA-LA-LA, BOOM-BOOM!
In Okido, Messy dances down a street with his friends.
The singers sing, MESSY GOES TO OKIDO,
LET'S ALL GO TO OKIDO.
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.
[Birds chirping]
In a backyard, Messy stands beside a small metal washtub. Episode title: Weather Balloons. Written by Dan Haythorn.
Messy says, HELLO!
CAN YOU GUESS WHAT'S IN THIS
TUB?
IT'S NOT BAKED BEANS, OR MY
FAVOURITE SOCK STEW!
IT'S A LOVELY, SQUELCHY MUD
PIE!
Messy backs up.
He says, TIME FOR A MESSY MUD BATH.
Messy runs and jumps toward the tub. He flips mid-air and lands on his bottom in the tub on hard mud.
Messy says, OUCH.
He rubs his bottom.
Messy says, OH.
IT ONLY GOES "SQUELCH" IF IT'S
WET.
HEY, SPEAKER, IS IT GOING TO
RAIN TODAY?
[Smart speaker beeping]
A smart speaker says, RAIN IS DUE THIS AFTERNOON.
Messy cheers, HOO-HOO!
THAT'LL MAKE MY MUD PIE SUPER
SQUELCHY!
He leaps out of the tub.
Messy says, HMM.
HOW DOES IT KNOW IT'S GOING TO
BE RAINY OR SUNNY OR SNOWY?
Clouds pass through the sky.
Messy says, CAN IT SEE THE WEATHER COMING?
OR MAYBE IT CAN SMELL IT COMING.
He smells the air.
[Messy sniffing]
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. Messy flips off a trampoline and lands in a studio beside a monster with a camera and headset. The monster gives a thumbs up. Zoom appears with Messy.
[Bright music plays]
Mayor Oki sits behind a news desk with a microphone and coffee mug. A large screen shows Mayor Oki at the desk.
Mayor Oki says, AND FINALLY, MY HIGHLY
ACCURATE WEATHER FORECAST.
Messy stands in front of the camera and looks into the lens.
Mayor Oki says, OKIDO IS SUNNY AND VERY WARM
EVERYWHERE!
The screen shows Lolly wearing a scarf and shivering.
Mayor Oki says, PERFECT FOR ICE CREAM, EH,
LOLLY?
Lolly says, says, UH, NO, NOT EXACTLY
MAYOR OKI.
[Lolly stammering]
Lolly stands outside her ice cream van and rubs her paws together. Lolly shivers.
[Wind gusting]
Mayor Oki says, OH, WELL.
[Mayor Oki clearing his throat]
Mayor Oki says, LOOKS LIKE YOU FOUND A NICE, UH,
SHADY BIT THERE.
The screen shows monsters clinging to palm trees on Okido Beach.
Mayor Oki says, I'M SURE OKIDO BEACH IS ENJOYING
THE SUMMERY WEATHER.
EH?
[Wind gusting]
Mayor Oki checks his notes. He throws them off the desk.
Mayor Oki says, FARMER FUDDLE'S CROPS MUST LOVE
THIS SUNSHINE!
At Farmer Fuddle’s farm, Farmer Fuddle looks angry.
Farmer Fuddle says, SUNSHINE?
I'LL GIVE YOU SUNSHINE,
SUNSHINE.
[Animals bleating]
Farmer Fuddle IT'S SO WET, MY TURNIPS ARE
ROTTEN!
He holds up a turnip.
Farmer Fuddle says, JUST WAIT.
A pig flies blows Farmer Fuddle.
[T.V. static]
The screen freezes on Farmer Fuddle.
Mayor Oki groans, OH.
He briefly lowers his head.
Mayor Oki says, MY FORECASTS ARE USELESS!
NO ONE WILL EVER BELIEVE
ANYTHING I SAY EVER AGAIN!
Messy runs up to Mayor Oki at the news desk.
Messy asks, WHERE DO YOUR FORECASTS COME
FROM, MAYOR OKI?
Mayor Oki says, I DON'T KNOW.
I JUST READ THEM OUT.
He grabs a strip of paper off the floor.
Messy says, HMM.
He and Zoom look at the paper.
[Zoom chittering]
Messy wraps himself in the paper and leaves the studio.
[Zoom chittering]
In another room, Messy says, AHA!
He stares at a cube.
[Cube whirring]
Messy says, LOOK!
IT'S ZIM AND ZAM!
Icons of Zim and Zam are on the cube.
Messy says, THEY MUST MAKE THE FORECAST.
TO THE CLOUD SHIP!
[Zoom chittering]
Messy falls.
[Thudding]
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom frowns. In Okidoodle, Messy and Zoom fly to the cloud ship in the sky. Gusts of wind make Okidoodle and the cloud ship wobble.
[Wind gusting]
Messy says, WOW!
IT'S REALLY WINDY TODAY!
In the cloud ship, the elevator opens. Zim hits the wall beside it.
Zim yelps, AH!
[Thudding]
Zam grunts, OH.
Messy and Zoom step out of the elevator.
Zam says, OH!
[Zoom chittering]
Zam carefully walks across the room.
[Zam chuckling]
Zam says, SORRY ABOUT THE TURBULENCE.
[Zam chuckling]
Zam says, SOMEBODY FAILED TO FORECAST A
STORM.
She glares at Zim. The room tilts, and Messy falls.
[Zoom chittering]
Zam says, QUICK!
SOMEBODY PRESS THE EMERGENCY
STABILIZER BUTTON!
Zoom falls toward Messy. Zam stumbles across the room.
[Zam yelping]
Messy spots a yellow button on the control panel.
He says, I'LL DO IT!
I AM THE BEST PRESSER OF
"BU-TONS" IN THE –
The room shakes and Messy stumbles forward.
[Messy yelping]
Messy bounces off the yellow button. The cloud ship jerks forward and back before stabilizing.
[Zam yelping]
Zam says, SO YOU ARE, MESSY.
Zim, Zam, and Messy lie on the floor. They slowly get up. Messy dusts himself off.
Messy asks, WHAT'S HAPPENED, ZIM?
WHY ARE MAYOR OKI'S FORECASTS SO
WRONG?
Zim says, IT'S MY WEATHER BALLOONS.
Messy says, BALLOONS THAT MAKE THE
WEATHER?
LIKE RAIN AND WIND AND SUN?
THAT'S THE MOST BRILLIANT
BALLOON EVER!
Zim says, NOT QUITE, MESSY.
THESE BALLOONS HELP WITH WEATHER
FORECASTING.
Zam says, THAT'S WHAT WE CALL IT WHEN
WE TRY TO WORK OUT WHAT THE
WEATHER WILL BE LIKE IN THE
FUTURE.
Zim plugs a tube into a machine. The machine blows up a big, white balloon.
Messy says, WOW!
IT'S GIGANTI-NORMOUS!
Zim carries a box over to the machine hooked onto the weather balloon.
He says, WEATHER BALLOONS CARRY LITTLE
COMPUTERS HIGH INTO THE SKY AND
SEND BACK MESSAGES ABOUT WHAT
THE WEATHER'S LIKE UP THERE.
Zim points upward.
He says, THAT'S HOW I KNOW WHAT THE
WEATHER WILL BE LIKE DOWN HERE.
Zim points to the box. Messy looks in the box.
Messy says, OOH!
Lights shine on a computer in the box.
[Computer beeping]
[Computer whirring]
Zim puts the lid back on the box.
Zam says, OR YOU WOULD, IF THEY DIDN'T
KEEP MYSTERIOUSLY DISAPPEARING.
Zim says, HMM.
I'M DOWN TO MY LAST ONE.
Messy says, YOU HAVE TO HOLD ON TIGHT TO
YOUR BALLOON, ZIM.
Zoom transforms into a balloon. Messy grabs onto Zoom.
Messy says, LIKE THIS!
He pulls on Zoom.
Zam says, EXCELLENT IDEA, MESSY.
ZIM CAN GO WITH YOU.
Zim says, OKAY, BUT WHAT ABOUT –
[Zam grunting]
Zam pulls a harness out of a box.
She says, DON'T WORRY, ZIM.
WE'LL MAKE SURE YOU'RE SAFELY
STRAPPED IN.
[Zim yelping]
Zam says, AND LOOK: THE WIND'S DIED DOWN
NOW.
Zim says, OH!
He looks nervous.
Zam says, OKAY, MESSY.
[Zoom chittering]
Zam continues, WHILE YOU AND ZIM ARE KEEPING
THE LAST BALLOON SAFE, I'LL SEE
IF I CAN FIND THE MISSING ONES.
A door in the ship opens. Messy and Zim stand on a platform with the weather balloon machine. They both wear harnesses.
Messy says, GIVE US A PUSH, ZAM.
[Zam grunting]
Zoom flies out of the door alongside Messy and Zim. The large weather balloon follows.
Messy says, HEY-HEY-HEY!
At the door, Zam says, GOOD LUCK!
Messy cheers, BA-LA-BA-LA BOOM-BOOM!
Zam flies away in the cloud ship.
[Birds chirping]
Zoom hovers over Messy and Zim as they float through the air on the weather balloon platform. Messy sits on the edge of the platform. Zim looks nervous. The platform sways.
Zim says, OOH.
[Zim gulping]
Zim checks a tablet.
He says, 840 MILLIBARS.
WIND SPEED 26.
TEMPERATURE, 9 CELSIUS.
Messy asks, CAN WE GO A TEENY BIT FASTER?
Zim says, NO, NO!
THIS IS A GOOD SPEED.
WEATHER BALLOONS SHOULD MOVE
WITH THE WIND.
The wind gently blows Messy’s floppy ears and tail.
Messy says, SO, IF IT'S WINDIER, WE GO
FASTER?
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom transforms into a fan and blows air at the weather balloon.
Messy cheers, LET'S OKI-GO!
Zim says, I SUPPOSE THIS IS A BIT MORE
FUN.
He sits on the edge of the platform. Small, blue, flying robots speed toward the platform.
Messy says, WATCH OUT!
The platform spins as the flying robots zoom past.
Messy says, COPTER BOTS.
[Zim wailing]
Messy cheers, WHOO-HOO!
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom races after the weather balloon as it blows away.
[Messy and Zim wailing]
Zoom transforms into a parachute and grabs the weather balloon platform. The platform stops spinning and slows down.
Messy asks, IS WEATHER FORECASTING ALWAYS
THIS MUCH FUN, ZIM?
Zim says, NOT, UH, REA… REA….
[Zim stammering]
Zim says, USUALLY.
Elsewhere in the sky, the cloud ship flies over a forest.
Zam says, AH.
THE VALLEY OF LOST BALLOONS!
At the control panel, Zam flies the cloud ship through the valley of balloons.
Zam says, I CAN'T SEE A THING.
She flies directly toward a bouquet of balloons.
Zam wails, WHOA!
She swerves and hits the balloons. The cloud ship bounces off the balloons and into others like a pinball.
Zam yelps, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!
[Zam wailing]
The cloud ship spins.
On the weather balloon platform, Messy says, WOW.
WE'RE SO HIGH UP!
[Zoom chittering]
Messy, Zoom and Zim look at the ground below.
Zim says, PERHAPS A BIT TOO HIGH?
[Zoom chittering]
Zim says, I'LL LET OUT SOME GAS TO GET US
A BIT LOWER.
He turns a knob on the weather balloon machine.
[Air hissing]
The weather balloon deflates slightly and lowers.
Messy cheers, WHEE!
[Messy and Zim giggling]
Messy asks, CAN I HAVE A GO?
He bounces in his seat and shakes the platform.
Messy begs, OH, PLEASE, OH, PLEASE, OH,
PLEASE?
Zim says, OKAY, BUT DON'T LET OUT TOO
MUCH!
Messy turns the knob on the machine,
[Air hissing]
The weather balloon rapidly deflates and drags Messy and Zim through the sky. Zoom races after the balloon.
[Zim and Messy screaming]
Messy turns the knob, and the balloon stops deflating.
Zim says, AH.
THAT'S BETTER.
Messy nods. The weather balloon suddenly drops through the sky.
[Zim and Messy screaming]
Zim and Missy hold onto each other. Zoom follows the weather balloon.
[Ai hissing]
Elsewhere in the sky, Fluff, a cloud, glides through the air.
[Wailing]
The weather balloon drops past Fluff.
Messy yells, FLUFF, HELP!
[Zim screaming]
Fluff dives after the weather balloon.
[Messy yelping]
The balloon stops falling. Fluff carries the weather balloon platform on her back.
Zim says, OH, THANK YOU, FLUFF.
Fluff says, OOH, MY PLEASURE.
Messy says, WE'RE LOOKING FOR ZIM'S
WEATHER BALLOONS.
HAVE YOU SEEN THEM?
Fluff says, WELL, NOW THAT YOU MENTION
IT, I SPOTTED SOMETHING IN THE
MOUNTAINS.
Messy groans, OH, IT'LL TAKE AGES TO GET
THERE.
Fluff says, I CAN GIVE YOU A RIDE.
She flies toward mountains in the distance.
[Gentle music plays]
Fluff glides over and alongside the many mountains. Zoom hovers beside Messy and Zoom. Fluffy gently bounces the weather balloon platform off her back.
Fluff says, THANK YOU FOR FLYING FLUFF
AIRWAYS.
SEE YOU AGAIN SOON!
Messy says, BYE, FLUFF!
He waves. In the mountains, rock monster Lofty walks toward the weather balloon floating above.
Messy says, HEY, LOOK.
THERE'S LOFTY.
HEY, LOFTY!
He waves down at Lofty. Lofty looks up at the balloon.
Lofty says, HELLO!
OH, THANKS FOR GETTING ME A
BALLOON!
He grabs the weather balloon.
Zim says, I THINK THERE'S BEEN A
MISTAKE!
Lofty says, I’M SO GLAD YOU COULD COME TO
MY PARTY!
He runs down a path with the weather balloon toward rock monsters Mini and Craggy.
Mini and Craggy say, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LOFTY!
They both wave and hold weather balloons. They sit on the ground with gift boxes and other weather balloons.
[Zim gasping]
Lofty says, AW!
YOU ALL BROUGHT BALLOONS!
SPECIAL GIANT ONES, TOO.
He runs to Mini and Craggy and smiles at a cake.
Lofty says, AND GIANT CAKE!
Messy cheers, BA-LA-BA-LA BOOM-BOOM!
[Messy laughing]
Messy giggles, WHEE-HEE-HEE-HEE!
He cannonballs into Lofty’s cake.
[Splattering]
Messy pops up in the centre of the cake.
[Messy giggling]
Messy eats a handful of cake.
[Munching]
On the weather balloon platform, Zim asks, UH, LOFTY, CAN I HAVE A WORD?
On the cake, Messy calls out, HEY, LOFTY?
LET'S SEE YOUR GIANT MOVES!
[Playful music plays]
Lofty dances. He stomps his feet and lifts the weather balloon platform up and down.
Lofty laughs, HEY-HEY-HEY!
[Zim wailing]
Lofty says, THAT WAS FUN.
Zim says, WOAH, LOFTY?
He falls off the weather balloon platform.
Zim wails, LOFTY!
He lands on a slice of Lofty’s cake. Lofty picks up the slice of cake and opens his mouth wide.
Lofty says, AH.
Zim wails, NO!
Lofty stops and looks at the cake slice.
Lofty says, OH, HELLO, ZIM!
I DIDN'T SEE YOU THERE.
He puts Zim down on the cake.
[Zim yelping]
Craggy and Mini join Lofty by the cake.
Zim says, NOW ABOUT THESE BALLOONS?
UH, AH.
THE THING IS, LOFTY, THESE ARE
MY BALLOONS.
I USE THEM FOR MY WEATHER
FORECASTS.
WE'VE BEEN LOOKING EVERYWHERE
FOR THEM!
HAVEN'T WE, MESSY?
On one of the gift boxes, Messy eats cake.
Messy says, YEAH.
Mini says, OH, SORRY, BUT WE THOUGHT
THEY WERE JUST BIG BALLOONS!
Zim says, THEY ARE, BUT THEY'RE ALSO
IMPORTANT SCIENTIFIC
INSTRUMENTS.
WE NEED THEM BACK TO GET THE
WEATHER FORECASTS WORKING AGAIN.
Lofty says, OH, THAT'S A SHAME.
I'VE NEVER HAD A BIRTHDAY WITH
GIANT BALLOONS BEFORE.
A balloon bouquet bumps into Lofty.
[Balloons squeaking]
Lofty says, HEY.
WHAT WAS THAT?
He waves away the balloons, revealing the cloud ship. At the control panel in the cloud ship, Zam looks out the window.
Through the window, Zam says, OH, THANK GOODNESS.
I COULDN'T SEE A THING!
Messy says, YOU FOUND LOTS OF TEENY, TINY
BALLOONS IN THE VALLEY OF LOST
BALLOONS.
He briefly pauses.
Messy says, THEY'RE JUST WHAT WE NEED FOR MY
BRILLIANT IDEA!
[Playful music plays]
Using Zoom as a trampoline, Messy collects the small, valley balloons and stores them in a box. Zam ties balloons to one of Zim’s computer boxes. Lofty releases the computer box into the sky. Mini and Craggy release computer boxes into the sky with balloons.
Zam says, GREAT THINKING, MESSY.
ZIM GETS TO SEND HIS WEATHER
BALLOONS INTO THE SKY AGAIN...
Zim says, ...AND LOFTY GETS TO KEEP THE
BIG BALLOONS FOR HIS PARTY!
Zam checks her tablet.
She says, LOOK.
THE FORECASTS ARE WORKING AGAIN!
IT SHOULD BE SUNNY IN OKIDO
RIGHT ABOUT NOW.
In the sky, clouds clear.
[Lofty, Mini, and Craggy cheering]
Craggy cheers, WOO-HOO-HOO!
Lofty cheers, YAY!
He says, THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP,
MESSY.
Messy says, MMM!
DELICIOUS CAKE, LOFTY!
BUT IT'S TIME FOR ME TO GO HOME
NOW.
Everyone says, BYE, MESSY.
Messy says, BYE-BYE.
He returns home to a cloudy sky.
Messy says, OOH.
IT'S GETTING CLOUDY!
IT'S GETTING CLOUDY!
COME, CLOUDS.
RAIN!
PLEASE?
A raindrop lands beside Messy.
[Messy gasping]
Messy says, A RAINDROP!
Another raindrop lands beside Messy.
Messy says, AND ANOTHER ONE!
It starts to rain.
Messy cheers, BA-BA-LA-LA BOOM-BOOM!
IT'S RAINING!
He dances.
Messy says, THE WEATHER FORECAST WAS RIGHT.
THANK YOU, WEATHER BALLOONS.
[Cheerful music plays]
Messy says, SCIENTISTS RELEASE BIG BALLOONS
HIGH UP INTO THE SKY.
THEY SEND BACK MESSAGES SO THE
SCIENTISTS CAN WORK OUT IF IT'S
GOING TO BE SUNNY OR RAINY OR
SNOWY.
Messy looks in his mud-filled washtub.
He says, AND TODAY'S WEATHER FORECAST
WILL BE MOSTLY MESSY!
WOO-HOO-HOO!
Messy jumps in the washtub.
[Slashing]
[Upbeat music plays]
Messy sings, BA-LA-BA-LA-BOOM-BOOM!

Zoom flies out of the door alongside Messy and Zim. The large weather balloon follows.
Messy says, HEY-HEY-HEY!
At the door, Zam says, GOOD LUCK!
Messy cheers, BA-LA-BA-LA BOOM-BOOM!
Zam flies away in the cloud ship.
[Birds chirping]
Zoom hovers over Messy and Zim as they float through the air on the weather balloon platform. Messy sits on the edge of the platform. Zim looks nervous. The platform sways.
Zim says, OOH.
[Zim gulping]
Zim checks a tablet.
He says, 840 MILLIBARS.
WIND SPEED 26.
TEMPERATURE, 9 CELSIUS.
Messy asks, CAN WE GO A TEENY BIT FASTER?
Zim says, NO, NO!
THIS IS A GOOD SPEED.
WEATHER BALLOONS SHOULD MOVE
WITH THE WIND.
The wind gently blows Messy’s floppy ears and tail.
Messy says, SO, IF IT'S WINDIER, WE GO
FASTER?
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom transforms into a fan and blows air at the weather balloon.
Messy cheers, LET'S OKI-GO!
Zim says, I SUPPOSE THIS IS A BIT MORE
FUN.
He sits on the edge of the platform. Small, blue, flying robots speed toward the platform.
Messy says, WATCH OUT!
The platform spins as the flying robots zoom past.
Messy says, COPTER BOTS.
[Zim wailing]
Messy cheers, WHOO-HOO!
[Zoom chittering]
Zoom races after the weather balloon as it blows away.
[Messy and Zim wailing]
Zoom transforms into a parachute and grabs the weather balloon platform. The platform stops spinning and slows down.
Messy asks, IS WEATHER FORECASTING ALWAYS
THIS MUCH FUN, ZIM?
Zim says, NOT, UH, REA… REA….
[Zim stammering]
Zim says, USUALLY.
Elsewhere in the sky, the cloud ship flies over a forest.
Zam says, AH.
THE VALLEY OF LOST BALLOONS!
At the control panel, Zam flies the cloud ship through the valley of balloons.
Zam says, I CAN'T SEE A THING.
She flies directly toward a bouquet of balloons.
Zam wails, WHOA!
She swerves and hits the balloons. The cloud ship bounces off the balloons and into others like a pinball.
Zam yelps, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!
[Zam wailing]
The cloud ship spins.
On the weather balloon platform, Messy says, WOW.
WE'RE SO HIGH UP!
[Zoom chittering]
Messy, Zoom and Zim look at the ground below.
Zim says, PERHAPS A BIT TOO HIGH?
[Zoom chittering]
Zim says, I'LL LET OUT SOME GAS TO GET US
A BIT LOWER.
He turns a knob on the weather balloon machine.
[Air hissing]
The weather balloon deflates slightly and lowers.
Messy cheers, WHEE!
[Messy and Zim giggling]
Messy asks, CAN I HAVE A GO?
He bounces in his seat and shakes the platform.
Messy begs, OH, PLEASE, OH, PLEASE, OH,
PLEASE?
Zim says, OKAY, BUT DON'T LET OUT TOO
MUCH!
Messy turns the knob on the machine,
[Air hissing]
The weather balloon rapidly deflates and drags Messy and Zim through the sky. Zoom races after the balloon.
[Zim and Messy screaming]
Messy turns the knob, and the balloon stops deflating.
Zim says, AH.
THAT'S BETTER.
Messy nods. The weather balloon suddenly drops through the sky.
[Zim and Messy screaming]
Zim and Missy hold onto each other. Zoom follows the weather balloon.
[Ai hissing]
Elsewhere in the sky, Fluff, a cloud, glides through the air.
[Wailing]
The weather balloon drops past Fluff.
Messy yells, FLUFF, HELP!
[Zim screaming]
Fluff dives after the weather balloon.
[Messy yelping]
The balloon stops falling. Fluff carries the weather balloon platform on her back.
Zim says, OH, THANK YOU, FLUFF.
Fluff says, OOH, MY PLEASURE.
Messy says, WE'RE LOOKING FOR ZIM'S
WEATHER BALLOONS.
HAVE YOU SEEN THEM?
Fluff says, WELL, NOW THAT YOU MENTION
IT, I SPOTTED SOMETHING IN THE
MOUNTAINS.
Messy groans, OH, IT'LL TAKE AGES TO GET
THERE.
Fluff says, I CAN GIVE YOU A RIDE.
She flies toward mountains in the distance.
[Gentle music plays]
Fluff glides over and alongside the many mountains. Zoom hovers beside Messy and Zoom. Fluffy gently bounces the weather balloon platform off her back.
Fluff says, THANK YOU FOR FLYING FLUFF
AIRWAYS.
SEE YOU AGAIN SOON!
Messy says, BYE, FLUFF!
He waves. In the mountains, rock monster Lofty walks toward the weather balloon floating above.
Messy says, HEY, LOOK.
THERE'S LOFTY.
HEY, LOFTY!
He waves down at Lofty. Lofty looks up at the balloon.
Lofty says, HELLO!
OH, THANKS FOR GETTING ME A
BALLOON!
He grabs the weather balloon.
Zim says, I THINK THERE'S BEEN A
MISTAKE!
Lofty says, I’M SO GLAD YOU COULD COME TO
MY PARTY!
He runs down a path with the weather balloon toward rock monsters Mini and Craggy.
Mini and Craggy say, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LOFTY!
They both wave and hold weather balloons. They sit on the ground with gift boxes and other weather balloons.
[Zim gasping]
Lofty says, AW!
YOU ALL BROUGHT BALLOONS!
SPECIAL GIANT ONES, TOO.
He runs to Mini and Craggy and smiles at a cake.
Lofty says, AND GIANT CAKE!
Messy cheers, BA-LA-BA-LA BOOM-BOOM!
[Messy laughing]
Messy giggles, WHEE-HEE-HEE-HEE!
He cannonballs into Lofty’s cake.
[Splattering]
Messy pops up in the centre of the cake.
[Messy giggling]
Messy eats a handful of cake.
[Munching]
On the weather balloon platform, Zim asks, UH, LOFTY, CAN I HAVE A WORD?
On the cake, Messy calls out, HEY, LOFTY?
LET'S SEE YOUR GIANT MOVES!
[Playful music plays]
Lofty dances. He stomps his feet and lifts the weather balloon platform up and down.
Lofty laughs, HEY-HEY-HEY!
[Zim wailing]
Lofty says, THAT WAS FUN.
Zim says, WOAH, LOFTY?
He falls off the weather balloon platform.
Zim wails, LOFTY!
He lands on a slice of Lofty’s cake. Lofty picks up the slice of cake and opens his mouth wide.
Lofty says, AH.
Zim wails, NO!
Lofty stops and looks at the cake slice.
Lofty says, OH, HELLO, ZIM!
I DIDN'T SEE YOU THERE.
He puts Zim down on the cake.
[Zim yelping]
Craggy and Mini join Lofty by the cake.
Zim says, NOW ABOUT THESE BALLOONS?
UH, AH.
THE THING IS, LOFTY, THESE ARE
MY BALLOONS.
I USE THEM FOR MY WEATHER
FORECASTS.
WE'VE BEEN LOOKING EVERYWHERE
FOR THEM!
HAVEN'T WE, MESSY?
On one of the gift boxes, Messy eats cake.
Messy says, YEAH.
Mini says, OH, SORRY, BUT WE THOUGHT
THEY WERE JUST BIG BALLOONS!
Zim says, THEY ARE, BUT THEY'RE ALSO
IMPORTANT SCIENTIFIC
INSTRUMENTS.
WE NEED THEM BACK TO GET THE
WEATHER FORECASTS WORKING AGAIN.
Lofty says, OH, THAT'S A SHAME.
I'VE NEVER HAD A BIRTHDAY WITH
GIANT BALLOONS BEFORE.
A balloon bouquet bumps into Lofty.
[Balloons squeaking]
Lofty says, HEY.
WHAT WAS THAT?
He waves away the balloons, revealing the cloud ship. At the control panel in the cloud ship, Zam looks out the window.
Through the window, Zam says, OH, THANK GOODNESS.
I COULDN'T SEE A THING!
Messy says, YOU FOUND LOTS OF TEENY, TINY
BALLOONS IN THE VALLEY OF LOST
BALLOONS.
He briefly pauses.
Messy says, THEY'RE JUST WHAT WE NEED FOR MY
BRILLIANT IDEA!
[Playful music plays]
Using Zoom as a trampoline, Messy collects the small, valley balloons and stores them in a box. Zam ties balloons to one of Zim’s computer boxes. Lofty releases the computer box into the sky. Mini and Craggy release computer boxes into the sky with balloons.
Zam says, GREAT THINKING, MESSY.
ZIM GETS TO SEND HIS WEATHER
BALLOONS INTO THE SKY AGAIN...
Zim says, ...AND LOFTY GETS TO KEEP THE
BIG BALLOONS FOR HIS PARTY!
Zam checks her tablet.
She says, LOOK.
THE FORECASTS ARE WORKING AGAIN!
IT SHOULD BE SUNNY IN OKIDO
RIGHT ABOUT NOW.
In the sky, clouds clear.
[Lofty, Mini, and Craggy cheering]
Craggy cheers, WOO-HOO-HOO!
Lofty cheers, YAY!
He says, THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP,
MESSY.
Messy says, MMM!
DELICIOUS CAKE, LOFTY!
BUT IT'S TIME FOR ME TO GO HOME
NOW.
Everyone says, BYE, MESSY.
Messy says, BYE-BYE.
He returns home to a cloudy sky.
Messy says, OOH.
IT'S GETTING CLOUDY!
IT'S GETTING CLOUDY!
COME, CLOUDS.
RAIN!
PLEASE?
A raindrop lands beside Messy.
[Messy gasping]
Messy says, A RAINDROP!
Another raindrop lands beside Messy.
Messy says, AND ANOTHER ONE!
It starts to rain.
Messy cheers, BA-BA-LA-LA BOOM-BOOM!
IT'S RAINING!
He dances.
Messy says, THE WEATHER FORECAST WAS RIGHT.
THANK YOU, WEATHER BALLOONS.
[Cheerful music plays]
Messy says, SCIENTISTS RELEASE BIG BALLOONS
HIGH UP INTO THE SKY.
THEY SEND BACK MESSAGES SO THE
SCIENTISTS CAN WORK OUT IF IT'S
GOING TO BE SUNNY OR RAINY OR
SNOWY.
Messy looks in his mud-filled washtub.
He says, AND TODAY'S WEATHER FORECAST
WILL BE MOSTLY MESSY!
WOO-HOO-HOO!
Messy jumps in the washtub.
[Slashing]
[Upbeat music plays]
Messy sings, BA-LA-BA-LA-BOOM-BOOM!
