ERNIE:ERNIE:[SINGING] Every night when I lie in bed,
BERT: Oh no.
ERNIE:ERNIE:[SINGING] I see pictures dancing in my head.
BERT: Picture sleep.
ERNIE:[SINGING] Buddy, Bert.
BERT: What?
ERNIE:ERNIE:[SINGING] Buckle up, and we'll fly away.
BERT: Whoa!
Yeah!
ERNIE:ERNIE:[SINGING] We're adventuring.
Every time the bed starts tapping,
something special's gonna happen.
BERT: [LAUGHS] This is kind of catchy.
ERNIE:ERNIE:[SINGING] My favorite kind of traveling.
BOTH: Yeah!
[SINGING] We're adventuring.
Come along with Bert and Ernie.
We're gonna take a little journey-- Bert and Ernie's
Great Adventures.

CHILD: Hey!
Can you throw our ball back?
BERT: Huh?
Oh, sure.
CHILD: Thanks!
ERNIE: Leap.
FROGGY: Ribbit.
ERNIE: Leap.
FROGGY: Ribbit.
ERNIE: Leap.
FROGGY: Ribbit.
[ERNIE LAUGHS]
BERT: Ernie, why are you playing leapfrog with a real frog?
ERNIE: This isn't just any frog, Bert.
It's The Amazing Froggy.
We're going to train her to win The Great Frog Jumping Contest.
BERT: Uh, we are?
ERNIE: Uh-huh.
First prize is a year's free pass to The Ducky Ride
for the winning frog and her coaches.
That's us, Bert.
We'll be able to ride it any time we want.
BERT: Oh, Ernie.
[FLY BUZZING]
ERNIE: Aw, come on, Bert.
It's for the rubber ducky ride.
And the Amazing Froggy is sure to win the race.
All she needs is a little training.
[CHEWS, SWALLOWS, AND SIGHS]
BERT: Hey!
That frog just ate my breadcrumbs.
ERNIE: An athlete needs to eat, Bert.
Let's find her some energy food.
BERT: Hey!
ERNIE: That's not quite what I meant.
BERT: Oh no, you don't.
There you go!
CHILD: Thanks!
FROGGY: Ribbit.
BERT: Aw.
Here, take this instead.
FROGGY: Ribbit.
[KISSING SOUND]
ERNIE: Why, Bert, I think she likes you.
[BERT CHUCKLES]
FROGGY: Ribbit.
FROG 1: Ribbit.
FROG 2: [CROAKING SOUND] Ribbit.
FROG 1: Ribbit.
BERT: Uh-oh.
Are those frogs going to race too?
ERNIE: Don't worry, Bert.
Froggy can beat them.
I can see us on that Rubber Ducky Ride already.
BERT: I don't know, Ernie.
Those looked like professional jumping frogs.
ERNIE: Well, you have to think positive, Bert.
Come, Froggy, show us your best jump.
[FLY BUZZING]
[GULPS AND BURPS]
All right, then.
Let's practice leapfrog again.
I'll go first.
Leap.
Now you leap, Froggy.
Ah, OK.
Well, I have another idea.
Don't go anywhere. [SNICKERS]
BERT: Oh, brother.
[KISSING SOUND]
Enough with the kisses, OK?
ERNIE: Boing, boing, boing, boing.
Watch me, Froggy.
Jump like this.
Boing, boing, boing.
BERT: Ernie.
[HICCUPS]
Froggy?
ERNIE: Look, Bert, she has talent in her.
BERT: That's not talent, Ernie.
It's a rubber ball.
ANNOUNCER: All competing frogs, report to the starting line.
ERNIE: The race is starting.
Come on!
ANNOUNCER: Frogs, take your places
for The Great Frog Jumping Contest.
And no jumping until he race begins.
ERNIE: Quick, Bert, help me hold Froggy down.
BERT: Yeah.
Whoa!
ERNIE: Uh-oh.
BERT: Whoa!
ERNIE: Steady!
BERT: Ah, oh.
FROGGY: Ribbit.
ANNOUNCER: Frogs, on your mark, get set, jump!
FROG 1: Ribbit, ribbit.
[CROWDS CHEERING]
ERNIE: Come on, Froggy-- jump.
Why isn't she moving, Bert?
BERT: She just doesn't seem interested in the race.
ERNIE: You're right.
It's you she's interested in.
BERT: Huh?
ERNIE: Maybe if you jump, Bert, she'll follow you.
Here.
BERT: But Ernie, I am not going to ride a pogo stick in a frog
race.
ERNIE: Please, Bert?
For Froggy?
And me?
And the ducky ride?
BERT: Oh, all right.
Follow me, Froggy.
[LAUGHS]
FROGGY: Ribbit.
ERNIE: Go, Froggy!
[MUSIC PLAYING AND POGO STICK BOUNCING]
AUDIENCE: Froggy!
Froggy!
FROGGY: Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit!
[AUDIENCE CHEERS]
ANNOUNCER: The winner of The Great Frog Jumping Contest
and a year of Ducky Rides is The Amazing Froggy and her coaching
team!
ERNIE: You did it, Froggy.
You won!
Oh, I told you she could do it.
FROGGY: Ribbit. [KISSING SOUND]
BERT: Yeah, heh.
You're very welcome.
Enjoying the Ducky Ride?
ERNIE: I love it.
FROGGY: Ribbit.
[KISSING SOUND]
[BERT LAUGHS]
[KISSING SOUND]
But I think she's still likes you best.
FROGGY: Ribbit.

MR. BOSS: And this, is my darling Tootsie from Brazil.
Give her some water-- but never, ever feed her.
ERNIE: Oh, look at those cuties.
MR. BOSS: Mr. Ernie, are you listening?
ERNIE: Uh, uh-huh.
BERT: Don't worry, Mr. Boss.
Your plants are in good hands with us.
MR. BOSS: Great.
