Episode 213: Helping Hands

Mopatop's Shop
Written by	Sally-Ann Lever
Director	Simon Spencer

Mopatop opens the episode by offering a golden dish, a flying fish, or a sound that goes swish.

Puppyduck finished sweeping the floor and plans to clean the whole store room. Mopatop wants to help, but he has to look out for the customers in the shop. At that moment, Lamont the Sloth arrives to deliver a box of flying slippers. Puppyduck goes to take it, but she drops the box and the flying slippers came out. Lamont catches them and Puppyduck puts it back in the box with a rock on top of the lid. She places the box in the flying slippers department.

Helpful Hilma enters the shop and ask if they need any help. Mopatop explains that Puppyduck was going to clean the store room and he would like to help her. Helpful Hilma says she can watch the shop while they clean up. Before Mopatop and Puppyduck clean up, Puppyduck tells Helpful Hilma to not touch any boxes. Moosey Mouse was going to help clean the shop, but decides to stay around in case Helpful Hilma needs help.

Helpful Hilma says the shop could use something pretty and decides to build a rock garden. She takes the rocks that are keeping the flying slippers in their boxes. Moosey tries to keep the lids closed, but the flying slippers suddenly flew out. To get the slippers to stop, Helpful Hilma put her two fingers in her mouth and whistle very loud for them to stop. She apologizes to Mopatop and Puppyduck and says she was not helpful. Roley Moley enters the shop and ask if they have any rock gardens. Mopatop says they were sold out yesterday, but Helpful Hilma says she had just build one. Moosey Mouse cheers for Helpful Hilma as Roley Moley takes the rock garden.
