[THEME MUSIC]
ELMO: (SINGING) Do-be-do-do.
Imagine a story--
tweedle-dee-acha,
imagine a song.
Mm.
Woodle-ee-woo.
What happens next?
You'll never know.
CHICKENS: Bawk-bawk-bawk-bawk!
ELMO: It's "Elmo the Musical!"
"Elmo the Musical!"
CHICKENS: Bawk!
VELVET: Let's get
on with the show!
[LAUGHS]
Ooh!
What's today musical
story going to be, Elmo?
ELMO: Well, Elmo's
not sure yet, Velvet.
Come on!
Let's think.
[POPPING]
What if-- what if--
[LAUGHS]
What if Elmo was--
[POPPING]
Ah!
A karate master?
Ooh, a martial arts musical.
Sounds exciting.
ELMO: Yeah, Velvet.
And you can be a
karate master too.
[LAUGHS]
First, Karate Master Elmo will
teach you the special karate
chop.
It goes like this.
[LAUGHS]
(SINGING) Hop, hop,
chop, chop, chop.
Hop, hop.
Chop, chop, chop.
Now you try it with Elmo.
Come on!
Hop, hop, chop, chop, chop.
Hop, hop.
Chop, chop, chop.
[LAUGHS]
Boy, that was cool.
Now we're ready to
imagine (SINGING) Karate
Master the Musical.
[GONG]
[LAUGHS]
Come on.
Let's imagine a village.
Ah!
ANIMALS: (SINGING) Here
in our little village,
atop a grassy hill, lives
a wise karate master
with a very special skill.
Using only his bare hands
and with such amazing speed,
he uses his karate chop to
make any shape you need.
ELMO: (SINGING) Who
needs a shape master?
Elmo can do it.
With a chop, chop, chop,
there's nothing to it.
Let' chop.
Hop, hop.
Chop, chop, chop.
Hop, hop.
Chop, chop, chop.
GRASSHOPPER: Wow!
Look at all those
amazing shapes!
[RUMBLING]
ELMO: What was that?
GRASSHOPPER: What's happening?
CHICKEN: Master Elmo, my
triangle-shaped sandwiches
have all been smushed.
ELMO: Well--
CHICKEN: Oh!
TIGER: Oh!
And all my circle-shaped
wagon wheels are broken!
ELMO: Oh no!
TIGER: Oh!
GRASSHOPPER: Oh no!
My house!
Ever rectangle, ruined.
I say, who is destroying
all of our shapes?
VOICE: I am.
[GASPS]
PIG: Oink.
ELMO: What is that?
THE OOZE: (SINGING) They
call me, simply, The Ooze.
And I'm here to
give you the news.
When I see a shape,
I can't take it.
I have to destroy
it and break it.
Say goodbye to each square.
They'll no longer be there.
No ovals, triangles,
circles or rectangles.
That's the last pentagon.
There's no more.
They're all gone!
The Ooze rules.
So do not mistake it.
ELMO: Mr. Ooze has to stop
breaking all of our shapes!
THE OOZE: Says who?
GRASSHOPPER: Says
Karate Master Elmo!
THE OOZE: Oh.
Is that so?
GRASSHOPPER: Mhm.
THE OOZE: Well then, it seems
that you have met your match.
ELMO: We shall meet
in the octagon.
[LAUGHS]
THE OOZE: Ew, ugh.
Now that I see it, I realize
this octagon is a shape.
ELMO: Uh-huh.
A shape with 8
sides and 8 angles.
THE OOZE: It must be destroyed!
[GRUNTING]
GRASSHOPPER: Ah!
Well, aren't you going to
stop him, Karate Master Elmo?
ELMO: Patience,
young grasshopper.
GRASSHOPPER: Um, I'm
actually middle aged, FYI.
ELMO: Oh.
THE OOZE: Well?
Is that the best you've got?
ELMO: Let's chop.
Hop, hop.
Chop, chop, chop.
HORSE: What shape
is this going to be?
ELMO: Hop, hop.
Chop, chop, chop.
HORSE: It looks like it has one,
two, three, four, five sides.
DOG: And 5 angles.
CHICKEN: It's a pentagon!
[GASPS]
THE OOZE: Pentagon?
Be gone.
Whoa!
ELMO: Why doesn't
he use like shapes?
THE OOZE: Why?
[MUSIC PLAYING]
(SINGING) Life would
be much less hectic
if I were geometric.
But no, there is no shape to me.
To me.
[SAD MUSIC PLAYING]
COW: Aw.
[BLOWING NOSES]
ELMO: Master Elmo may have
a way to help The Ooze.
(SINGING) Hop, hop.
Chop, chop, chop.
Hop, hop.
Chop, chop, chop.
Yeah.
See?
THE OOZE: Well, a square?
How is a shape supposed
to make me feel better?
ELMO: Well, just go
inside the square.
[OOZE SQUISHING]
THE OOZE: Oh, look at me.
I have a shape!
I'm a square!
ELMO: (SINGING) Hop, hop.
Chop, chop, chop.
[GRUNTS]
THE OOZE: Hmm, let's see.
[OOZE SQUISHING]
[GASPS]
Look at me!
I'm a triangle!
ELMO: (SINGING) Hop, hop.
Chop, chop, chop.
[GRUNTING]
[OOZE SQUISHING]
[LAUGHS]
ANIMALS: Wow!
THE OOZE: I'm a--
uh, I don't even know
what shape this is.
[LAUGHS]
ELMO: You're a rhombus.
[GASPS]
THE OOZE: I'm rhombus shaped.
Woo-hoo!
[LAUGHS]
ELMO: See?
It's not that The
Ooze has no shape.
The Ooze can be any shape.
[LAUGHS]
THE OOZE: You're right.
[OOZE SQUISHING]
[LAUGHS]
I can be every shape
there is. (SINGING)
And now I do look forward to
the shape of things to come.
ALL: Yes, now we
all look forward
to the shape of things to come.
VELVET: Bravo!
Bravo!
[LAUGHS]
That performance was
in great shape, Elmo!
[LAUGHS]
ELMO: Ah, thank you, Velvet.
[LAUGHS]
And thank you, karate master.
Elmo couldn't have done
this story without you.
[LAUGHS]
VELVET: Curtain call!
ELMO: (SINGING) That's
"Elmo the Musical."
ALL: "Elmo the Musical."
VELVET: (SINGING) That's
the end of our show.
[LAUGHS]
ELMO: Bye-bye!
