- You're so awesome.
- You're so awesome.

- Ha ha! Both.
- Never leave me.

[ snoring ]

All right, guys, time to go.

[ growls ]

[ cow moos ]

[ yawns ] Hah!

Morning, Mr. Sun.

Good morning, Lennon.

[ snoring ]

Ahh. Ooh.

Ooh, chocolate.

- Morning, buddy.
- [ screams ]



Whoa. That was intense.

Ready for our morning routine?

Do we have to?

Only every morning.

[ groaning ]

And last, but not least,
we make the bed.

♪ And pulling up the covers ♪

- Yeah.
- ♪ And tucking in the sheets ♪

♪ And pulling up the sheets ♪

- Oh, yeah.
- ♪ And tucking in the covers ♪

♪ Place, place the pillow ♪

♪ Place the pillow ♪

- Ahh.

[ sad trumpet plays ]

All right, I'm ready to be made.

[ sighs ] Uh, really?

I mean, I already did
all that other stuff.

Come on. It'll be great.

Uh, yeah, you know,
I-I'm sorry, Bed.

I--I just--I can't right now.

I--I got stuff to--
I just don't have it in me.

Hey, it won't take long.
I promise.

[ groans ]
But I don't wanna!

But I wanna get made!

Hey, buddy. What's going on?

Oh, uh, my bed
wants me to make it,

- but I don't want to right now.
- Why not?

There are tons of reasons
to make your bed in the morning.

Like what?

Well, making your bed
gives you somewhere

to put all of Grandma's
awesome homemade pillows.

[ foghorn blows ]

And it lets you see if there's
anyone hiding in your bed.

That's terrifying.

Uh, I'll just see
you guys later. Heh.

Plus, like Grandma always says,

[ imitating Grandma ]
"Ooh, my little hamantaschen,

"you must always
make your bed when you get up,

[ gruff voice ]
or else--else--else--else."

She kinda lost the thread
on that saying,

and it honestly got kinda dark,

but it definitely has to do
with what to do when getting up.

[ gasps ] "Get up," you say?

Hmm, that gives me an idea.

Loophole. Hah!

I never got up,
so I don't have to make my bed.

Ah, seems a little ridiculous.

Oh, does it?

What about all the cool stuff
we won't be doing

while I'm stuck here
making the bed?

[ gasps ] I never
thought about it like that.

We could be teaching birds
to skateboard right now!

[ squawks ]

Okay, I am in.

Let's get out of here.

Surf's up, birdies!

Oh, no. Not making the bed

could take Gluko
down a dark and terrible path.

I have to help him.

That's cool.

I'll just stay home
by myself, then.

I got stuff to do.

Well, mornin', boys.

You two look happier
than a pig at a birthday party.

And that's pretty happy.

We're celebrating our freedom!

Yeah! I didn't make my bed
this morning,

and now we have
all the free time in the world.

High-five!

Oh, come on. That's messed up,

and I'm not
just talking about your bed.

If you don't make it,

where are you gonna put
all your pillows?

Oh, maybe we'd better go home

and make the bed, Gluko.

No, no, no. Stay strong, buddy.

We just got to the fun part
of procrastinatining.

Just smell
that hotted chocolate.

Mmm.

Here's to no consequences
for our actions.

- Cheers!
- Cheers!

[ slurps ]

[ whispers ]
Make me.

[ both scream ]

Excuse me. Could I, uh--

Could I get
a hot chocolate to go?

- [ screams ]
- The walking bed!

Lennon:
Run away! Run away fast!

- Crawl. Crawl.
- Hi, Radish Family.

- Crawl, crawl, crawl.
- Crawl, crawl, crawl.

Hi, Giraffes. Go all-in.

[ both yelling ]

Bed: Whoa, yeah.
[ laughs ] Hey!

Come on. It doesn't
have to be that big of a deal.

Just make me, Gluko.

No! You can't make me make you!

Gluko, cliff!

Ahh! Cliff!

Psst. Why not take the stairs?

Huh?

Running for my life!

Running for your life!

No more stairs!

[ both scream ]

[ Gluko groans ]

Hey there. Sorry.

We never got around
to finishing those stairs.

The name's Dave.

Welcome to Freedomto.

Did you say, "Freedomtown"?

Freedomto.

Freedomtown?

Mm-hmm, Freedomto.

Mm, it just really sounds

like you're saying, "toe,"
instead of, "town."

We just never got around
to finishing the na.

So, uh, what's this town's deal?

- Deal?
- Yeah, you know...

- [ coughs ]
- every mysterious town

in the middle of nowhere
has a deal.

Remember when we found that town

where everyone spoke
only in hugs?

Of course. That's where we
became fluent in hug-talk.

[ giggles ]
You said it, buddy.

Well, I guess in Freedomto,
our thing is freedom.

Here, you'll never do
anything you don't want to,

and if you get tired
of doing something you're doing,

just drop it, and move on.

Life is too sh.

I haven't brushed my teeth
since I was a little girl.

See?

- [ pop ]
- Freedom!

I haven't combed my hair
in decades.

Hey, Stuhven.

Lyle, is that you?

[ laughs ] Yeah, it sure is.

I, uh, just haven't
hit the gym in a while.

Well, I'm running away
from the bed I don't wanna make.

Hey, well, that's great.

I knew you guys
were gonna fit right in.

Come on. Let me show you arou.

[ coughs ]

Everything here seems, uh,

kinda half-finished.

Oh, for sure, brother.

It's like I always say,

if something's worth doing,

it's worth only half-doing.

- I don't get it.
- [ laughs ]

Well, allow me
to educate you, my friend.

A banjo's
just a half-finished guitar.

Is that the end of the song?

Nah, man, but it's cool.

We can finish it later.

Okay. Well, hey,
thanks for everything,

but I think it's about time
we headed home now.

No can do, brother.

We never finished building
the road out of town.

[ bird squawks ]

It's cool, though.

There's so much more here
for me to.

Super nice guy.

Gluko, I think this place might
not be as cool as Dave says.

What? Didn't you hear the song?

This place is great.

We never have to do anything
we don't want to ever again.

Come on. I'm getting hungrified.

Let's grab a sandwich.

Good day, sir.

I'll take one cheese sandwich,
please.

Where's the rest
of the sandwich?

[ sighs ] I'll make it later.

See? This place is messed up.

It's okay.

I'm just a little
very extremely hungrilicious,

not a big deal.
What I really need to do

is sit down
and collect my thoughts.

[ yelps, groans ]

Someday someone will finish
putting me together.

[ screaming ]

Wait! Gluko, come back!

Nothing's finished.

It won't drive.

Ahh! They're not open.

[ screaming echoes ]

[ townsfolk laughing ]

Oh, Lennon, I thought
if I didn't make my bed,

I'd have more time
to do cool stuff,

but now we're stuck here
forever, and it's all my fault.

Don't worry, Gluko.

It'll be okay as long
as we're stuck here together.

I'm just sorry
there's so many things

we're going to leave
unfinished back home.

Oh, I'll never finish helping
Grandma dig that bottomless pit.

Grandma: Hello?

And we'll never
finish running those numbers

for Mike in accounting.

Come on, Gluko and Lennon.

I need those numbers.

- [ telephone rings ]
- Oh!

And worst of all, I'll never
finish making my wonderful bed.

[ crying ]

I let you down.

[ whispers ]
Hey, guys.

- [ screams ]
- Whoa, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Don't cause a scene.

Bed! I'm so glad to see you.

Ah, thank goodness
you're okay, Gluko.

I tried to warn you

about where not making
your bed could lead, but--

Shh. So much is said in silence.

I'm sorry, Bed. You were right.

I see now
that a chore isn't a chore

when you're taking care
of the people you care about.

I should have done this
a long time ago.

Oh, yeah. That is good.

Hey, that guy
finished something--

[ echoes ] finished something--
finished something.

- Let's get out of here!
- [ horse neighs ]

[ both laughing ]

Now they're escaping?

They're doing things
all the way!

- Get them!
- [ yelling ]

Whew! That's too much effort.

- Yay!
- Whoo!

[ screaming ]

[ engine revs ]

[ crickets chirping ]

Man, that was a crazy day.

Maybe tomorrow, though,
we can take care of business

before we can go out to play.

Sounds cool to me.

Ah, laying down.

Gluko, what are you doing?

Oh, I'm just gonna sleep
on the floor, Bed.

I don't wanna ruin
your freshly made covers.

But the reason you make
your bed in the morning

is so you can unmake it
at night.

Get in here, you big lug.

Oh, my.
The sheets are so crisp.

[ sighs ] I love you, Bed.

And also Lennon.

- I love you, Gluko.
- I love you, Gluko.

- [ owl hoots ]
- [ snoring ]

Guys, they're asleep.

♪ There are animals
in the room ♪

Well, what do you think?

Looks just like me!

Why, thank you.

I have been told
I am very skilled with a brush.

Plus my jelly makes
the greatestest paint.

[ crowd cheering ]

Hey, check out
the action over there.

Let me guess. You boys are
checking out that guy who's got

a little version of himself
on his head, aren't you?

That is so cool.

It's almost like Stuhven,
but different.

Oh, I am nothing like that.

Maybe not, but that guy
looks crazy interesting!

Yeah, no one else I know

has a tiny version
of themselves on their head.

I have so much
interestingnessess for that guy.

Ho Cho Jo is gonna let you boys
in on a little secret.

That guy isn't
necessarily interesting.

Really?

That's just a gimmick,

a thing he uses to make
himself look interesting,

because he's
actually a big old bore.

- That can't be true.
- False!

Hey, you!

[ crowd quiets ]

Are you basically boring

and that little version of you
is just there as a gimmick

so people will think
you're interesting?

Yes. Before I had Gord here,

I used to bore people
out of their minds.

My real interest is
the different kinds of vanilla.

[ whispers ]
Chocolate is better.

This little guy's
winning me over.

I love your little you.

Are you free this weekend?

I'm having a cake party, and I
would love to introduce you

and your little mini
to all my friends.

O.M.Grr, are you free tomorrow?

I'm having a game night!

This never used to happen.

You'll have to excuse us,
everyone.

We belong to an exclusive club
for interesting people,

and we're late for a meeting.

[ crowd groans ]

[ together ]
We wanna come!

We said the same thing!

We did it again!

That's a pretty good gimmick.

You need a gimmick
to get into the club,

but I'm sure you could do that,
and you'd be just fine.

Oh, no way
we could keep that up.

No way we could keep that--

[ gasps ] See?

That's too bad,
because there's gonna be

a real cool dance party
after the meeting.

We gotta go.

Ooh, I love dance partying.

Me, too. Plus he said
it was going to be real cool,

and that sounds cool.

We need a gimmick fast
so we can go.

Can't we just do
what Mard's doing?

Sure. Why not? Hmm.

[ gasps ] Maybe Stuhven would be
willing to dress like me

and pretend to be
a little mini like Gord.

Hey, Stuhven...

do you think you could--

No.

First, I squeezen
into the jelly printer,

add photo, press print...

and voy-lah.

I found a picture!

It's my thumb.

Little minis!

[ together ]
I'm good with that.

[ both laugh ]

High-five!

So all we need now
is for you two little minis

to hop on our shoulders
or heads or something,

then stroll around town with us.

Yeah, well, uh,
we were kinda thinking

that we'd form a garage band
and jam instead.

[ rock music plays ]

That's valid.

I guess we could be in a band,

and that could be our gimmick?

Mm, yeah, uh...

we thought we'd be a duo.

Pssh. That's--That's cool.

We got a lot going on right now
anyhow also for us,

so this kinda is perfect.

It's kind of a dream scenario.

[ plays note ]

Hey, really sorry
about this, but...

Um, we kinda wanna jam,

and our songs haven't been,
like, field-testeded yet, so...

You want us to leave?

- [ shouting ]
- Both: Huh?

Crowd: Ooh!

[ whistles ]
Walking a giraffe,

that's a perfect gimmick!

Why didn't we think of that?

Let's get a giraffe!

There are
some excellent examples

of giraffeosity here today.

[ gasps ]

♪ Mega Giraffe ♪

[ together ]
Mega Giraffe.

We'll take it!

♪ Wow ♪

[ crowd murmurs ]

Is he angerating at us?

Maybe we should...

ride!

Oi! I'm gonna chase you.

[ both gasp ]

Hey, got you now!

Got the apple. Ha ha!

Five points for me.

Giraffe pellet!

Ha ha! Another five.

Bonus stage.

- [ both gasp ]
- Oh!

Oi! Now I got you!

[ both gasp ]

[ Western movie music playing ]

[ gasps ]
Uh, sorry to bother you,

but, um, why are you chasing us?

You're trying to steal
my gimmick.

Steal, or share?

Steal. It's not a gimmick
if someone else is doing it.

I'm the Giraffe Guy around here.

[ sighs ] He's right.

We can't just steal
other people's gimmicks.

I guess you can go now,
Mega Giraffe.

Cool. [ neighs ]

So I guess
we awkwardly walk away,

but in the same direction
for a little while.

- Ah!
- Yah!

[ sighs ]
We need our own gimmicks.

Those other guys were just
walking around with something,

so I'll walk around with, um...

our toaster!

Wow! You thought that up
so quickly.

I'm gonna see if I could
thunk up something quick, too.

All right, gotta think.
Thinking.

Nope, I got nothing.

Hey, take as long
as you need, buddy.

You know what? I might need to--

- Don't say it!
- I'm sorry!

But I can't think
of something when you're around

distracting me
by being so awesome.

I might need to be...

[ echoes ]
a-a-lone.

Nope, nope, sorry.

Mm-mmm, not worth it.

What a great gang
of fascinating chums.

[ together ]
Who?!

Well, the people with gimmicks,

of course, so interesting.

This club is the best.

Maybe we could
just take a little look?

[ laughs ] Good luck.

No one gets by Derby.

Yeah, nobody.

Gimmick?

Uh, we're identical twins
that look nothing alike.

That's impossible.

Are you guys
trying to squeak by,

because you couldn't figure out
a gimmick?

Well, what's your gimmick?

Oh, it's obvious, isn't it?

I'm a derby hat named Derby
who wears a derby.

I would have thought being
a doorman was your gimmick.

No way.
That, well, that's my passion,

which also means
there is zero chance

of you guys getting
in here without a gimmick,

- so leg it.
- Never!

Me and my best friend
will not be moved!

- That's right.
- [ cracks knuckles ]

It's our choice...

to move to the side.

- [ sighs ]
- Ah, sigh.

We'll never carry
all of our equipment

to the people with gimmicks
party in time.

We're too mini.

We'll carry your stuff.

Yeah, if you get us
into the gimmick party.

- Gluko.
- Okay.

We'll help you either way.

I'm very proud of you.

Thanks.

[ dance music playing ]

Oi, didn't you two try to get
in here without gimmicks before?

But we're roadies...

which is our gimmick.

Are you sure?

Yeah, think about it.

Those guys
are mini versions of us,

and we're their roadies.
It's crazy unique.

Eh, well, this better be
a real gimmick

and not a passion or something.

No, no, no, no way.
Just a gimmick.

We're still working
on our passions.

[ grunts ]

I like those blokes.

They've got pluck.

[ guitar feedback squealing ]

[ coughs ]

Everyone's just standing around.

This isn't very interesting.

Yeah, they must be
so focused on their gimmicks

that they forgot
how to hang out with each other.

All right!
Let's get this party started!

One, two, three, four!

Have you ever seen
anything so amazing?

They have so much passion
for their music.

Well, sure, but you have Gord.

It's true,
but Gord's my gimmick.

I don't have a passion for him.

- [ Mega Giraffe neighs ]
- Hurtful!

[ elephant trumpets ]

Is it weird that I don't feel
like I need a gimmick anymore?

Yeah, no, me neither.

I figured out
my passion, though,

doing cool stuff with you.

Ah, me too, buddy.

Guitar me!

[ song resumes ]

Chirp.
