[bluegrass music playing]
[music ends]
Ah, what a splendid day for a swim.
Yes, Frog. I am looking forward to it.
So, why are you behind that rock then, Toad?
Because I am putting on my bathing suit.
Huh. I do not wear a bathing suit.
Well, I do. And, Frog, after I put on my bathing suit,
you must not look at me until I get into the water.
Why not?
Because I look funny in my bathing suit, that is why.
I am sure you do not look funny in your bathing suit.
I most certainly do.
Why do you wear one if you think you look funny in it?
Because it is my favorite. I like the stripes.
Don't peek.
[chuckles] Okay, Toad. No peeking.
[water splashes]
All right, Frog. You may look now.
[chuckles]
Then here I come! [cheers]
[cheering, laughing]
[humming]
Toad?
Frog? [chuckles]
[both laughing] Whoa.
[blows]
Ooh.
Aah.
I am having a grand time swimming.
What about you, Toad?
Toad?
Yes. Yes. [stammers] Splendid.
[stammers] But can you please make Turtle go away?
I do not want her to see me looking funny in my bathing suit
when I come out of the water.
Oh, Toad. I am sure you do not look funny in your bathing suit.
Please.
Okay. I will ask.
Turtle, I am afraid you will have to go away.
Hmm. And why should I?
Because Toad thinks he looks funny in his bathing suit
-and does not want you to see him in it. -Oh, really?
Well, it must be quite a funny bathing suit.
I think I would like to stay and see it.
I am sorry, Toad.
But Turtle wants to see you in your funny bathing suit.
No. No. No one must see me.
Hi-ho, there, Toad.
Blah!
Beautiful day for a swim.
-[exclaims] -Yes. Perfect for sunbathing.
-[exclaims] -And exercising! [grunting]
[grunts] Frog, do something.
Mm-hmm.
Lizard, Snake, Dragonfly. You must please go away.
Sorry, Frog, I've got at least… [grunting] …99 more push-ups to go.
Why do you want us to leave? Do you think it will rain?
Uh-- No. You see-- [stammers] Well-- [groans]
[whispers] Funny bathing suit.
What did he say?
Toad, you gotta speak up.
[grumbles] I look funny in my bathing suit.
[all] What?
I look funny in my bathing suit!
-Incredible! -Interesting.
My word.
Yes. And I do not want anyone to see me in it.
So, if you could please leave.
-I'm staying. -Spectacular!
Ooh, this is gonna be good!
[grunts] I will just stay here until everyone goes away.
[groans]
[rumbling]
What are we looking at here? Seems like quite the party.
Toad thinks he looks funny in his bathing suit and we want to see it.
[gasps]
By golly, this is the most excitement we've had in a while.
I'll spread the news.
But-- B-But-- [groans]
[bubbling]
Everyone! Come quick.
-[cheering, laughing] -All right!
-[Snake] I can't see. -Look out, Toad!
[squeaking]
Did I miss it? Please say I didn't miss it.
Don't worry, Mouse. Toad has not budged from the water yet.
Ah, phew! I was afraid I'd missed it.
[both gasp]
This is terrible, Frog. The whole town wants to see my bathing suit.
-[bell rings] -[gasps] Mink brought fruit pops!
-[cheering, chattering] -[Dragonfly] Thank you.
Mmm. I would like a fruit pop.
[creatures laughing]
[banjo playing]
[grunts]
I can't see.
Here. We can share my binoculars.
Oh, thank you.
[groans]
Blah.
I will have to keep swimming until everyone goes away.
Let's try not to worry about them and enjoy our swim.
Okay. I will try, Frog.
Here he comes!
[all gasp]
[all sigh]
Here he comes again!
[all gasp]
[all groan]
[all gasp]
[all sigh, groan]
Please come out, Toad.
I have not seen anything funny in a long time.
-Please. -Yeah, come on out!
What do we wanna see?
[all] Toad's funny bathing suit!
When do we wanna see it?
-Now! -Soon!
We will have to come out of the water at some point.
We've been swimming for a long time.
I am starting to get wrinkly.
Frogs should not get wrinkly.
Toads are always wrinkly. And I am staying right here.
Toad, you must be tired of swimming by now.
[sighs] Yes, that is true.
But, oh, I wish they would not watch me.
Hmm.
Nothing to see here, folks!
Time to head home! Please! Please, go away!
I've been waiting all morning, Frog.
I am certainly not leaving now.
-[clamoring] -[Gopher] Not budging an inch.
[Turtle] What do we wanna see?
-[creatures] Toad's funny bathing suit! -It is no use.
-No one wants to leave. -[Turtle] When do we wanna see it?
-[creatures] Now! -[grunts]
Toad, why should you care if anyone sees you in your bathing suit?
It is your favorite after all.
Let us get out of the river together.
I have a better idea, Frog.
I want you to swim ashore and distract everyone.
Then I will sneak out of the water and tiptoe past them.
But they will see you, Toad.
Not if I wear a disguise.
How do I look, Frog?
-Like you have a lily pad on your head. -Perfect!
[chuckles] All right.
[creatures chanting] Toad's funny bathing suit!
I can't wait to see Toad in his funny bathing suit.
This is the most excited I've been since Tuesday.
-[bubbling] -Look over there! Is that Toad?
-He's coming! He's finally coming! -This is it!
-I am so excited! -Here he comes!
Frog?
If Frog is here, what happened to Toad?
Everyone look over there to the other side of the river!
Where? I don't see anything!
-Whoa! -[splashes]
-[all gasp] -Applesauce! Is that…
-[grunts] -…Toad?
[creatures laughing]
Oh, my, Toad. You do look funny.
[grunts] Of course I do.
[laughing continues]
Hmm.
Hello, Frog.
Hello, Toad. I am very sorry for laughing at you.
That is all right. I told you I looked funny in my bathing suit.
Well, it was funny at first.
But then something amazing happened.
Come with me. You must see this.
[laughs]
-[Toad panting] -[creatures laughing]
Look!
Yay!
[gasps, stammers]
Everyone is wearing funny bathing suits like mine.
Look, everyone! Toad's back!
-[cheers] -Welcome back!
Sorry for laughing, Toad. We loved your funny bathing suit.
You did?
Absolutely. As soon as I saw it,
I thought, "I have to get a bathing suit with stripes on it just like Toad's."
Me too! And the slimy plants were a very nice touch.
So stylish.
Now that you're here, will you join us for a swim, Toad?
The water's fine!
-Come on, Toad! -Fine day for a swim.
What do you think, Toad?
Would you like to go swimming again?
Frog, why are you behind that rock?
Because I am putting on…
my bathing suit!
[chuckling] You look funny in your bathing suit, Frog.
Of course I do. And I am looking forward to us looking funny together.
[chuckles] Me too.
-Yay! -Whoo-hoo!
[splashes]
[laughing]
-Whoo-hoo! [laughs] -[laughing]
[bluegrass music playing]
[music ends]
[wind whistling]
[slurps] Great apple cider, Toad.
Why, thank you, Frog. The secret is cinnamon. And apples.
[sighs] I love this time of year.
When the leaves turn from green to all these beautiful colors.
[slurps]
Blah. The leaves are pretty,
but not when they fall all over everything.
If there is one thing that I do not love, it is raking up leaves.
My yard is also covered with leaves.
-If only they would stay on the trees. -Mm-hmm.
[groans] And out of my mug.
[grunts] Well, it is getting late. I should start heading home.
-Good night, Toad. -Good night, Frog.
Stay. Stay.
[sighs]
Blah.
[inhales, blows]
[sighs]
[groans]
[groans] Those messy leaves have covered everything.
Frog and I will be stuck raking our lawns all day.
We will not get to do anything together.
[gasps] Perhaps there's a way to make Frog's day a happy one.
I could go to Frog's house and rake his leaves for him.
[chuckles]
Frog will be very pleased to see that.
And when it is done, we will be able to spend more time together.
[wind whistling]
Good morning, morning.
Oh, so many leaves.
Toad will not be happy raking up the ones in his yard today.
Unless, I go over to his house and rake them up when he is not looking!
[chuckles]
-Toad will be so surprised. -[leaf crunches]
Ooh. A crunchy one.
-Hmm. [laughing] -[leaf crunching]
Hmm.
[groans]
Where is it?
I know I put it here somewhere.
Aha! There you are, rake.
Right where I left you last year. To Frog's house.
I will need my trusty rake to clean up all of Toad's leaves.
-[clatters] -No, no, other tools,
I just need rake today.
[sighs]
[humming]
Uh-oh. If Toad sees me on the path with my rake,
it might ruin the surprise.
But if I walk through those bushes extra quietly, he will not see or hear me.
[clanks]
[shushes]
Hmm. If Frog sees me coming, it will ruin his surprise.
Ah! Frog would never expect to see me in that tall grass.
[chuckles] It tickles.
[clears throat] No, Toad. Think about Frog's surprise.
Be the quiet Toad.
-[rustling] -Huh?
[both chuckling]
[both] Mmm.
-[crunches] -[shushes]
-Hello there, Frog. -[exclaims] Oh. Hello, Squirrel.
If you're looking for Toad, I already saw him leave this morning.
Oh, good. I am surprising Toad by raking up all his leaves for him.
Do you know when he will be back?
Huh. Hard to say. But don't you worry, I'll stand out front
and keep watch by the path in case he comes back.
Excellent. Thank you, Squirrel.
Okay, rake, time to get to work.
-[crunches] -[gasps]
[sighs]
Frog? Are you there?
Oh, good. Frog is not home.
He will be so surprised to find his yard raked clean.
[humming]
There, all done.
Toad will be so surprised.
Hmm. I may not like raking leaves, but I love jumping into big piles of them.
But that would make a mess of all the leaves I have raked.
Hmm.
Maybe I will take one big jump,
then I will rake up all the leaves again before Toad gets home.
[panting] Whoo-hoo!
[gasps] Frog! Frog! Oh, there you are.
Squirrel? Is something wrong? Is Toad here?
No, but I heard you yell real loud. What's going on?
Well, the leaves were all raked up in a pile,
and I was gonna leave them alone, but--
Oh, say no more, Frog. I love jumping in leaves.
Hmm. You know, Squirrel,
I suppose I could rake the leaves again so we could jump in them one last time.
Would you really?
-I am already doing it. [humming] -[shrieks]
Phew! Raking leaves is hard work,
but I finally made some progress with this leaf pile.
-[rumbling] -[gasps]
What you doing, Toad? Is something wrong?
Well, Gopher, I was raking up Frog's leaves so he would be surprised.
Ooh. A surprise. I love surprises.
And you know who else loves surprises?
Mole and Mink, and well, everyone loves surprises,
come to think of it. I'll go spread the word.
-Gopher, wait! -Oh!
Maybe it would be better if you stayed here with me
while I finish raking these leaves.
I would like to keep this surprise for Frog between us.
Ooh. Good thinking. I'll be happy to keep you company.
Oh, did I tell you what happened to me yesterday?
I heard from Mole who heard from Snake
who said that Mink has a new ice cream flavor.
Oh, I see. Very good.
That's what I said.
I thought it might be gingerbread or hazelnut, but you know what it was?
Apple crunch! [chuckling] Can you believe it?
Uh. [stammers] No.
[chuckling] That's what I said!
And wait until you hear what happened next.
[groans]
-Ready? -Ready!
[cheering, laughing]
[laughs] Whoo-hoo!
-Yeah! [laughs] -[laughs]
[cheering, laughing]
But, I always prefer a little bit of honey in my tea.
It's great to make it sweet, but not too sweet.
Oh, and did I tell you when I was digging around the other day…
-[wind whistling] -…I bumped into a root so big I--
[gasps] Come back, leaf!
There. This is my biggest leaf pile yet.
Ooh! I can't wait to jump in.
Wait, Squirrel, I wanna leave this pile for Toad.
Oh, right, I forgot all about Toad's surprise.
I should be getting back to the shop anyway.
-Bye, Squirrel! -Goodbye, Frog!
Now, I must get home so Toad does not see me.
Won't he be surprised to see all of his leaves raked into one big pile?
[chuckles]
[wind whistling]
At last. All the leaves are raked.
Ooh. That's a mighty fine leaf pile, Toad.
Thank you, Gopher.
Oh, and now I must get back home before Frog returns.
I think this will be the best surprise Frog has ever seen.
[chuckles] Yes. Imagine the look on Frog's face
when he sees that all his leaves are raked up.
See you, Toad.
[wind whistling]
[both gasp]
Oh. Hello, Toad. How are you today?
I am fine, Frog. [stammers] How are you?
I am also fine.
I have not seen you today. What have you been up to?
Oh, nothing much. And you?
Oh, about the same.
Well… [chuckles] …it is getting late. I really must get home.
Ah, yes, me too. Well, good night, Toad.
Yes. Good night, Frog.
[sighs]
What a day.
Tomorrow I will clean up the leaves over my yard,
but at least Toad's yard is nice and tidy.
Tomorrow I will rake all of my leaves. Hmm.
But at least Frog will not have to rake his.
I can only imagine how surprised Toad must be to see his yard.
I cannot wait to hear how surprised Frog was to see his yard.
But the best part is, Toad will never know who did it.
And to think, Frog will never know how his leaves got raked up.
