0:00:02 > 0:00:05I was hit by a can, opened it, and out popped a genie!
0:00:05 > 0:00:07# Three wishes set me free
0:00:07 > 0:00:10# Trust me, I'm a genie
0:00:10 > 0:00:12# Wish one - and on that first day
0:00:12 > 0:00:16# I got my very own cafe - Taa-daa!
0:00:16 > 0:00:19# Wish two - that was cool
0:00:19 > 0:00:22# I got my own swimming pool - Hee-hee!
0:00:23 > 0:00:25# But then I dropped the magic can
0:00:25 > 0:00:27# It filled with sand
0:00:27 > 0:00:30# And the works got jammed
0:00:30 > 0:00:33# Wish three - a total catastrophe
0:00:33 > 0:00:35# The genie raved and ranted
0:00:35 > 0:00:37# But no third wish was granted
0:00:39 > 0:00:41# If one more wish comes true
0:00:41 > 0:00:44# Then I'll be free from you
0:00:44 > 0:00:47# Trust me, I'm a genie. #
0:01:00 > 0:01:05Chores done. Now I can lie by the pool all day long.
0:01:08 > 0:01:13Uh-uh! Hang on, buddy. Aren't you forgetting something?
0:01:13 > 0:01:14It's wish time!
0:01:14 > 0:01:16I don't feel like making a wish today.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18I just want to stay by the pool.
0:01:18 > 0:01:19Come on, lazybones.
0:01:19 > 0:01:24If you really want to relax, how about a cryogenic sleep chamber?
0:01:24 > 0:01:26Just wake up every thousand years
0:01:26 > 0:01:29at the end of the millennium - party time!
0:01:40 > 0:01:44Oh, forget it. Today I just want to relax by the pool.
0:01:44 > 0:01:45NO wishes!
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Diego, you said you'd help me out with some chores.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51- I thought you were helping ME, Diego.- You?
0:01:51 > 0:01:55No, no, no! Diego's helping me today.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59Wooh! Help Joe, help Zazie, help Tony, help Larry.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02I've double-triple-quadruple booked myself!
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Oh well, if I PROMISED to help out...
0:02:05 > 0:02:08What? You can't make a wish,
0:02:08 > 0:02:12but you can do other people's stupid odd jobs?! Chores shmores!
0:02:12 > 0:02:16I was here first, so my needs are greater.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Now...about that wish...
0:02:18 > 0:02:22Ziggy, that was unnecessary! Now they're all mad at me.
0:02:22 > 0:02:27Sometimes I just WISH you'd be nice and helpful to everyone.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Just for one day.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Hmmm. One day, huh?
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Done!
0:02:47 > 0:02:51I call upon the powers that be to make me nice!
0:02:51 > 0:02:54And set me free!
0:03:02 > 0:03:03What?
0:03:04 > 0:03:07What a scam! Did you win them at the funfair,
0:03:07 > 0:03:10or find them in a pack of washing powder, or something?
0:03:10 > 0:03:14Wait a second. There must be something...
0:03:17 > 0:03:20Hey, selfish genie! Don't you know it's rude to stare?
0:03:20 > 0:03:24I really need someone smart and strong to help me,
0:03:24 > 0:03:28and the smartest and strongest guy I know is you, Ziggy.
0:03:28 > 0:03:32Oh, Joe. It's an honour to help you.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34I need to retune. Only be a second.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45- Thanks for your help, Ziggy. - No problem.
0:03:45 > 0:03:50- You really ARE being nice and helpful.- That was a piece of cake.
0:03:50 > 0:03:55You managed to hold up that huge satellite dish for two hours
0:03:55 > 0:03:57and thirty-eight minutes! Impressive!
0:03:57 > 0:04:02Ho-ho! So, these glasses make everything look easy.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06This wish is going to be so fulfilled.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10This is going to make me rich.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Smiley masks to make the pessimists of the world feel better.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- I only need to draw up one more. - No problem!
0:04:16 > 0:04:20He took it really well when I said I needed 100,000 more.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Ziggy's such a nice guy!
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Thanks, Ziggy! You're a dude, man.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Y-Y-You're welcome!
0:04:40 > 0:04:44Huh, this nice and helpful shtick ain't so bad after all.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48This is for you. I'm so proud of your new attitude, Ziggy...
0:04:48 > 0:04:49Oops.
0:04:49 > 0:04:55Oops?! Oops?! Diego! YOU...silly sausage.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Hey, guys, are you ready to help out?
0:04:57 > 0:05:00I need some plant specimens gathering.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Come on, Ziggy. Even without those spectacles,
0:05:03 > 0:05:05you can be nice through willpower alone.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Think about your freedom!
0:05:07 > 0:05:11Yikes! I can't do it!
0:05:11 > 0:05:13Diego, buddy, please!
0:05:13 > 0:05:16You've got to help me out.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Of course I will, Ziggy.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Wow, Ziggy! You're so eager to bring me the best.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Uh, don't mention it.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48One more to go.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Hey, Diego. Grab that one.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Oh, it's really awkward!
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Ziggy, can you help?
0:06:03 > 0:06:07Don't pull so hard, Ziggy. You're going to rip the whole dune out!
0:06:09 > 0:06:14B-B-But that was my favourite sand boarding dune!
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Yeah, well, these things happen.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Ziggy, wouldn't it be nice if we helped Larry fix it.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Of course it would. Sure thing.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32Wow! That's awesome! Thank you, guys!
0:06:39 > 0:06:40Woo-wee!
0:06:43 > 0:06:44Go, boy, go!
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Brilliant!
0:06:50 > 0:06:54- Now, my beauty, you're ready for the real thing.- Argh!
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Gangway!
0:07:01 > 0:07:03Oh, I've been training that bird all week!
0:07:03 > 0:07:06Where am I going to get another one now?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09I'm sorry, Tony. Maybe we can help?
0:07:09 > 0:07:12OK, I'll fix it.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25Wow! Ziggy! That's impressive!
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Er...that's the one for me!
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Ziggy, they won't leave me alone! And I've got no more seed!
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Stop it! Stop it!
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Ah-ah-ah-ahchoo!
0:07:39 > 0:07:42How...did...this...happen?
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Diego!
0:07:44 > 0:07:46I guess we better clean Joe's house, Ziggy!
0:07:46 > 0:07:48I guess we better had.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54- Ooh, sorry!- No problem!
0:07:56 > 0:07:58I so need a break. Like a year!
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Oh, could you please find a little time to help me out?
0:08:01 > 0:08:04Ziggy, there's just one more thing, mate...
0:08:04 > 0:08:08- You've been so helpful all day... - If it's not too much to ask...
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Argh! They all want a piece of me, Diego!
0:08:11 > 0:08:16I can only give so much blood, sweat and forced goodwill!
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Aw, stop the dramas, Ziggy!
0:08:18 > 0:08:20You're doing a great job!
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Everybody's really happy, thanks to you.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27And if it wasn't really important, they wouldn't bother you with it.
0:08:27 > 0:08:32OK! What can I do for you this time?
0:08:32 > 0:08:37Yo, cool! What I really, really want is a lake for water-skiing.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40I really, really need an extension on my bio-dome.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44Here's the planning permission and architect's drawings.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46I just need some keys picking up.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50From this little place called Fort Knox...where they keep the gold.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Yeah, it's just a simple thing.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55Is there a possibility of getting my own genie?
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Do you have a spare relative hanging around somewhere?
0:08:58 > 0:09:01- HE SIGHS - I'll see what I can do.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04I can't take this any more, Diego!
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Diego, you fixed them!
0:09:09 > 0:09:12This is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15Nothing is going to stop me now.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45'Good morning! Genies R Us hotline. How can I help you today?'
0:09:45 > 0:09:50I'd like to order a powerful genie for my friend Joe.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56My work is done. Here comes freedom!
0:09:56 > 0:10:00I think my repair job might not have worked out so well, Ziggy.
0:10:00 > 0:10:01What? What d'you mean?
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Ah-ha!
0:10:16 > 0:10:20'Good morning! Helpful Grannies To The Rescue.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42Oh! Will this nightmare never end?
0:10:42 > 0:10:44- What's going on?- Help!

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Really, we all appreciate you trying,
0:10:49 > 0:10:53but if it was all too much, then you only had to say.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56- We didn't REALLY need all those things.- What?!
0:10:56 > 0:10:59You didn't need all those things?
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Thanks for trying?!
0:11:01 > 0:11:07Well, don't you worry. I said I'd put it right, and I will!

0:11:19 > 0:11:25Next time you want something doing, you can do it for yourself!
0:11:25 > 0:11:28It was good to see you helping out so much, Ziggy.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32- But I'm glad the old you is back. - What was I thinking?
0:11:32 > 0:11:35Trying to be so nice to THAT bunch of clowns?!
0:11:35 > 0:11:39And as for you, mister! You're one heck of a guy, Diego!
0:11:39 > 0:11:43The best friend and master a genie could ask for.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46One day, I'll make that wish work.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50Till then, I can't think of a better place to be
