0:01:10 > 0:01:13Doesn't that look pretty!
0:01:16 > 0:01:20- Careful, Messy! Naughty dog! - Rrrruff!
0:01:21 > 0:01:27- Steady on!- Sorry, Stripy. Messy's helping me with some gardening.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31Teddy likes gardening, but he's busy today, I'm afraid.
0:01:31 > 0:01:36We're looking for a new friend for him...aren't we, Teddy?
0:01:36 > 0:01:39Ooh, a new friend!
0:01:39 > 0:01:42- That's exciting.- We were hoping
0:01:42 > 0:01:45YOU might be able to suggest something.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Me?! Oh, my goodness...
0:01:48 > 0:01:53- Um, I'll have to think about that, Stripy. Oooh!- OK.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57Thanks, Rusty. We'll see you later, then. Come on, Teddy.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Rrrruff!
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Oh, Messy! Now, come along.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07You really must try to be nicer to the flowers.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11Nicer?! Dog doesn't understand the word!
0:02:11 > 0:02:15You've got to be firm, Rusty, like this...
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- Messy!- Rrrruff.- Come here!
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Spotty, you do know how to...give orders.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Always glad to help, Rusty.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Sit! Stay!
0:02:30 > 0:02:34Firm but fair - that's the secret, Rusty.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45# Dum-de-dum-dum... #
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Now, a little rest is in order, I think.
0:02:48 > 0:02:53Oops! Wouldn't do for anyone to see these, would it?
0:02:54 > 0:02:57Imagine if the other robots knew
0:02:57 > 0:03:03that tough, dependable Spotty had a pair of soft, pink, fluffy slippers.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05I'm afraid they'd laugh at me.
0:03:08 > 0:03:12So, what sort of friend would Teddy like, Stripy?
0:03:12 > 0:03:16Well, I think he'd like someone he can play with...
0:03:16 > 0:03:19right, Teddy?
0:03:19 > 0:03:22Yes, someone he can play with.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29DOORBELL RINGS
0:03:29 > 0:03:33Oh! Um... I'm coming!
0:03:36 > 0:03:40- Ah, Rusty!- Rrrruff! - And Messy.- Rrrruff.
0:03:40 > 0:03:45Hello. Um...I've got some flowers left and I'd like you to have them.
0:03:50 > 0:03:55- Oh!- Oh, yeah, mmm, they're pretty, aren't they? The flowers.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58And I know you like pretty...
0:03:58 > 0:04:02- well, flowers, so I was... - Thank you, Rusty.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04How kind!
0:04:04 > 0:04:08They're lovely. Why don't you plant them for me?
0:04:08 > 0:04:10There.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14Yes, and there. Oh, thank you, Rusty.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Rrrruff.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- Rrrruff! Rrrruff!- Oh, hello, Messy.
0:04:39 > 0:04:44- You'll never guess what I saw Spotty wearing!- Rrrruff.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Slippers! Pink ones.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51I can't tell anyone I've seen them.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55Spotty would worry someone might laugh.
0:04:55 > 0:05:00I mean, everyone thinks of Spotty as tough and dependable, and she is,
0:05:00 > 0:05:04but at the same time...
0:05:04 > 0:05:06RUSTY GIGGLES
0:05:06 > 0:05:10..she wears lovely pink, fluffy slippers!
0:05:12 > 0:05:16Oh, no. There you are! I've done it myself -
0:05:16 > 0:05:21I've laughed, and that is just what Spotty wouldn't like.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25I've walked off with one of Spotty's slippers!
0:05:27 > 0:05:31I must get it back to her, but I can't just hand it to her,
0:05:31 > 0:05:35because she'll know I know she wears them.
0:05:39 > 0:05:43Oh... Where can the other one have got to?
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Outside, perhaps?
0:05:50 > 0:05:54She's going out! Quick, Messy, this is our chance!
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Rrrruff!
0:05:57 > 0:06:00We have to be very quiet, Messy.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04You keep watch and let me know if you see Spotty.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Rrrruff!
0:06:06 > 0:06:09Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
0:06:09 > 0:06:14- Hello, Spotty. Fancy seeing you. - This is my house, Rusty.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Yes! So it is!
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Well...
0:06:18 > 0:06:22- Looking for something? - No. Can I help you?
0:06:22 > 0:06:27Who, me? Oh, no, not really, no... Well, yes, sort of.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Yes. I was just thinking...
0:06:30 > 0:06:34- I wonder how Spotty's flowers are doing.- I see. Well...
0:06:34 > 0:06:38they're doing just fine, thank you.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41- I have to be getting on. Goodbye. - Bye, Spotty.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52Ah!
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Look, Teddy...
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Hello! Hello, Teddy!
0:06:58 > 0:07:02I think we've found you a new friend, don't you?
0:07:02 > 0:07:06Let's take him home and play with him.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Hello, Teddy! Hello!
0:07:12 > 0:07:16- Hello, Spotty. Have you lost something?- No.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Why? Have you found something?
0:07:19 > 0:07:22Messy! Messy!
0:07:22 > 0:07:23Messy!
0:07:24 > 0:07:28- Rrrruff!- Where's Spotty's pink slipper, Messy?
0:07:28 > 0:07:32- Rrrruff. - You haven't lost it, have you?
0:07:32 > 0:07:37Rrrruff! Rrrruff! Rrrruff! Rrrruff! Rrrruff! Rrrruff! Rrrruff! Rrrruff!
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- You want me to come with you?- Ruff!
0:07:40 > 0:07:43What's your name, then, new friend?
0:07:44 > 0:07:48Are you shy? Will you whisper your name to Teddy?
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Never mind. Let's play a game.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53Oh!
0:07:55 > 0:07:59Stripy, you've got my... my flower-polisher.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Have I? Where?
0:08:01 > 0:08:06There! That thing on your hand. Where did you find it, Stripy?
0:08:06 > 0:08:09- Teddy and I...- There's Spotty's...
0:08:09 > 0:08:14- Flower-polisher.- I thought it was a slipper... How interesting.
0:08:14 > 0:08:20- Yes, and I'd like it back, please, Stripy.- But it's Teddy's new friend.
0:08:20 > 0:08:25I don't think he'll want to give up his new friend. Do you, Teddy?
0:08:26 > 0:08:32- Teddy says he doesn't.- But it's mine. It's my sli...- Flower-polisher!
0:08:32 > 0:08:35- Yes, flower-polisher. - Hello, everyone!
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Look what I've brought you, Teddy.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44- It's your new friend.- Oh!
0:08:44 > 0:08:48- That's sweet.- Nice work, Tiny.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51It's lovely, Tiny.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Woof! Woof!
0:08:54 > 0:08:58Thank you, Tiny. He's just what Teddy wanted.
0:08:58 > 0:09:04Stripy, do you think Teddy would mind if I took my flower-polisher?
0:09:04 > 0:09:07I'm sure he wouldn't, Spotty.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Thank you so much, Stripy.
0:09:10 > 0:09:15You'll have to be very firm with your new friend, Teddy. Sit!
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Woof! Woof!
0:09:23 > 0:09:26Messy! Naughty dog!
