Henson's design for Convincing John as Vanguard.
Mokey is desperate to join the mysterious Secret Society of Poohbahs, even though Red says it's just a silly fad. When Mokey is finally chosen to join the club, she fails her initiation and has to undergo a trial to prove her worth.
Meanwhile, Doc has been asked to join The Royal Order of Chipmunks.
Fraggle Facts[]
- No matter what Mokey says, the Secret Society of Poohbahs is a pretty silly organization. All of the Poohbahs are called Fritz.
Notes[]
- In this episode, Convincing John, who is usually a Hand-Rod Muppet, is seen as a Live-hand Muppet instead.
- When Mokey first spots the Poohbahs in discussion from afar, the miniature versions of Mokey and Boober are used and made up to look like the Beggler-Beg and his associate.
- This is one of the few episodes not to feature a postcard from Uncle Traveling Matt.
