A firefly flies around a pond at night.
Flick appears on screen and says IT'S TIME TO LIGHT THINGS UP.
Flick is a firefly who wears a pink beanie, a brown T-shirt, black pants, and blue shoes. He has little tiny glowing wings that flutter behind him.
The song goes SHUTTERBUGS!
Flick flies throw the pond past a large toad and through leaves and cattails.
The song continues NA NA NA NA-NA-NA-NA
SHUTTERBUGS!
He flies into a lit-up city made of mushrooms and tree trunks flying past Harvey eating a watermelon and Opal reading a book in a hammock. Harvey is a large blue fly that wears a blue shirt and black pants. Opal is a spider wearing a green shirt and black pants on 8 legs.
The song continues NA NA NA NA-NA-NA-NA
SHUTTERBUGS!
SHUTTERBUGS
Flick, Harvey, and Opal fly by the title written in the sky that reads "Shutterbugs."
The episode title reads "When the moon hits your eye."
[PHONE RINGING]
Flick looks at his watch and Gordon says FLICK, COME QUICK!
SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAS
HAPPENED TO THE MOON.
Flick says BE THERE IN A FLASH BOSS!
He flies to the news centre where he meets Harvey and Opal. They walk into Gordon?s office.
Flick says HEY, GUYS! GOOD TIMING.
WHERE'S GORDON?
Harvey says HEYO?
Opal says GORDON?
Gordon is an older caterpillar with a white goatee and glasses.
He pops up and says SHUTTERBUGS!
THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE HERE.
WE HAVE A HUGE PROBLEM!
IT'S THE MOON!
They all say
WHAT HAPPENED?
Gordon says IT'S TURNED INTO A...
GIANT PIZZA.
LOOK!
A picture of an orange moon appears on a screen.
Harvey says WHOA!
THIS IS AMAZING!
Gordon says AMAZING?
GIANT PIZZA'S DON'T FLOAT.
WHAT IF IT FALLS FROM THE SKY?
AND, AHH...OHHH...I
NEED MY SUNGLASSES.
He puts on a pair of sunglasses.
Opal says WHAT ARE THOSE GOING TO DO?
Gordon says WHEN THE MOON HITS MY EYE LIKE A
BIG PIZZA PIE, THAT'S A PROBLEM!
[CHUCKLE]
BUT NOT WITH THESE, BABIES.
Flick says DON'T WORRY, GORDON.
WE'LL GET THE SCOOP AND SHED
SOME LIGHT ON THE STORY.
Three colourful glowing worms sit at their desks in the office.
One of them turns around and says I THINK...
The worms start to sing WE CAN HELP.
WE CAN HELP.
WHEN YOU'RE IN THE DARK
OR LOST IN THE PARK
UH OH, WHAT?
DO YOU HEAR THAT FLY?
OH, WHAT'S THAT IN THE SKY?
ASK YOURSELF:
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
LIGHT! REAL BRIGHT!
LET'S MAKE IT
ALL SHINE - ALL RIGHT!
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
EVERYTHING
WILL BE ALL RIGHT!
SHED SOME LIGHT!
The bugs fly to the market. Harvey passes by a handcart with a big grape and stops.
Harvey says WHOA!
Flick says HARVEY? WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Harvey says ALL THIS TALK OF GIANT-SIZED
FOOD IS MAKING ME HUNGRY.
Flick says OH BOY...
A waiter pops up and Harvey says YES, I WOULD LIKE A
LARGE PLATE OF CHEESE.
LARGE, NOT SMALL.
LARGE CHEESE.
ALSO SOME CRACKERS.
AND, AHH... OH GRAPES!
Opal says FLICK, CHECK THIS OUT.
HERE'S WHAT THE NORMAL
MOON LOOKS LIKE...
She shows a picture of the moon in her tablet.
[SHUTTER SNAP]
She takes a picture of the moon.
Opal says AND THIS IS WHAT'S UP THERE NOW.
Flick says PRETTY SIMILAR!
WHERE DID THE REAL MOON
GO, AND WHEN DID IT LEAVE?
WE NEED TO FIND OUT
WHY THIS IS HAPPENING.
Opal says HOW ARE WE GOING TO DO THAT?
THE MOON IS SO FAR AWAY.
Harvey appears carrying a big tray with a piece of cheese and a grape.
He says HEY, YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT
I LOVE ABOUT PIZZA?
CHEESE!
NICE, STRINGY, STICKY CHEE...
He gasps and says GUYS! CHEESE MELTS!
Opal says HARVEY, ENOUGH ABOUT
THE CHEESE ALREADY.
Harvey says BUT IF THE SUN GETS TOO
CLOSE TO THE PIZZA MOON,
THE CHEESE WILL MELT AND
DRIP ALL OVER MURKY MARSH!
Flick gasps and says THAT WOULD BE...
THAT WOULD BE...
Harvey says DELICIOUS!
He eats a piece of cheese and says HMM...
Opal says HARVEY!
IT WOULD BE DANGEROUS.
Harvey says DANGEROUSLY DELICIOUS?
Flick says IF SOMETHING'S HAPPENING
TO THE MOON, WELL,
IT'S GOING TO CHANGE...
EVERYTHING.
Harvey says CHANGE?
BUT, I DON'T LIKE CHANGE!
OH NO!
THIS IS AWFUL!
I... I...
[HYPERVENTILATING]
Opal says SLOW IT DOWN, HARVEY.
SOMETIMES CHANGE
CAN BE A GOOD THING.
LET'S NOT OVERREACT
UNTIL WE GET MORE FACTS.
OKAY?
Harvey says OKAY. OH BOY!
He eats cheese and says ONE HORSE FLY, TWO HORSE
FLIES, THREE HORSE FLIES...
Flick says HEY, LOOK AT THIS AGAIN.
He compares the two pictures of the moon and says SEE HERE AND HERE?
THEY HAVE THE SAME
CRATERS IN THE SAME PLACE.
THEY'RE NOT JUST SIMILAR...
Opal says THEY'RE EXACTLY THE SAME,
OTHER THAN THE COLOUR.
Flick says WHY WOULD THE COLOUR SWITCH?
Harvey says MAYBE THAT'S IT ? A SWITCHEROO!
MAYBE THE REAL MOON'S BEEN...
STOLEN!
[LAUGHTER]
Flick says HARVEY, TRUST US,
IF THE MOON HAD BEEN STOLEN,
THE POLICE WOULD HAVE...
[WAILING SIREN]
They all say DETECTIVE DEBBIE!
Detective Debbie, the pink dragon fly wearing a blue police uniform pops up and says SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG
TO GET HERE, SHUTTERBUGS.
TOWN'S GOING BINGO-BANGO-BONKERS
OVER THE MOON BEING STOLEN.
Harvey says HUH?
MAN, I'M GOOD!
Flick says STOLEN?
FOR REAL?
Detective Debbie says GALLOPING GADFLIES NO!
THAT'S JUST FOLKS
JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS.
THE MOON IS BIG, MAN!
IT'S A QUARTER THE
SIZE OF THE EARTH.
[MUFFLED CALL ON DETECTIVE
DEBBIE'S WALKIE-TALKIE.]
ROGER THAT!
SORRY SHUTTERBUGS,
I'VE GOTTA JET.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR STORY.
DEBS OUT!
She disappears.
Opal says I'LL NEVER GET
HOW SHE DOES THAT.
Flick says I'LL NEVER GET HOW THIS COULD
HAPPEN TO SOMETHING SO BIG.
A QUARTER THE SIZE OF THE EARTH!
Harvey says THAT'S GOTTA BE
BIGGER THAN... THAN.
HOW BIG IS THAT?
He shows the grape.
He laughs.
Opal holds the grape and says IF THIS IS THE EARTH,
A QUARTER OF THE SIZE
WOULD BE THIS.
She grabs a smaller grape.
She continues EXACTLY FOUR TIMES SMALLER.
Harvey says UH, GUYS?
THAT'S REALLY BIG.
[GULPS]
ARE YOU THINKING
WHAT I'M THINKING?
They say NEVER.
Harvey says IF THE MOON IS THAT BIG AND IT'S
MELTING OOEY GOOEY PIZZA CHEESE,
WE'RE GOING TO NEED
WAY MORE CRACKERS.
HARVEY, NO ONE COULD
MAKE A PIZZA THAT BIG.
I DON'T KNOW!
MAYBE THEY ORDERED AN
EXTRA-EXTRA-EXTRA-EXTRA LARGE!
Opal says NO, FLICK'S RIGHT.
IT'S GOTTA BE SOMETHING ELSE.
MAYBE THE MOON'S NOT MISSING,
MAYBE IT'S JUST...
Harvey says SICK! OPAL, YOU'RE BRILLIANT.
WE SHOULD ASK A DOCTOR.
IT MIGHT BE 'MOON FLU'!
Opal says AHH...
Harvey flies away.
Flick says HARVEY!
Opal says WAIT!
Harvey flies to the hospital.
[SIRENS AND HORNS BLARE]
Floyd is a red-headed fly. He stops the bugs and an ambulance passes by.
Floyd says WHOA! GOT TO LOOK BOTH WAYS!
Flick says PHEW!
THANKS, FLOYD.
HEY, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?
Harvey gasps and says MOON FLU?
Floyd says HUH?
NAH, NAH, NAH, NAH!
JUST FLEW INTO A BUILDING WHILE
STARING AT THAT FANCY MOON.
IT WAS SO BRIGHT
AND SO BEAUTIFUL.
I STRAINED MY EYES
LOOKING AT IT!
Opal says YIKES! DID IT HURT?
Floyd says NOT AS MUCH AS WHEN I CRASHED
INTO THE OBSERVATORY!
CRASH! BOOM! BLAMO!
[LAUGHS]
NOW I'VE GOT TO
WEAR THESE FUNNY GOGGLES
UNTIL MY EYES GET BETTER.
THEY MAKE EVERYTHING LOOK GREEN.
Harvey says HEY!
DO YOU THINK I CAN TRY THEM ON?
I MIGHT NEED SOMETHING
TO PROTECT MY EYES WHEN
THE MOON STARTS DRIPPING.
Floyd says OKAY..?
Harvey says YES!
He tries on the googles.
[SMACK]
WHOA!
THAT'S REALLY...
YOU'VE GOT A SMALL HEAD, FLOYD.
THESE ARE...
[GASPS]...OH WOW YOU GUYS!
THE MOON IS GREEN NOW.
IT'S GREEN!
Opal says IT'S NOT GREEN,
IT'S STILL ORANGE.
Harvey says NUH UH!
TOTALLY GREEN!
Flick says I STILL DON'T THINK WE'RE
LOOKING AT THIS THE RIGHT WAY.
WE'VE GOT
TO MAKE SENSE OF THIS,
WITH OUR SENSES!
The three little worms from the office appear on screen and sing OOOH, WE CAN HELP WITH THAT.
TELL ME 'BOUT THE SENSES.
SEEING.
HEARING.
TELL ME MORE, TELL ME MORE.
SMELLING.
TASTING.
THERE'S ONE MORE
SENSE YOU KNOW.
OH YEAH, TOUCHING!
ALL FIVE SENSES.
NOW IT'S MAKING SENSE.
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
YOU GOTTA USE
ALL YOUR SENSES.
OH YEAH!
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
IT'S REALLY,
REALLY,
REALLY...
MAKING SENSE!
Flick touches his watch. Two glowing goggles appear. They watch at the moon changing its colours.
Opal says RED...
BLUE...
GREEN...
Flick says HEY! THAT'S IT!
Opal says WHAT'S IT?
Flick says MAYBE IT'S NOT THE MOON THAT'S
CHANGED, MAYBE IT'S SOMETHING
IN FRONT OF THE MOON THAT HAS,
LIKE THE LENSES IN OUR GOGGLES.
Opal says WHOA! THAT MAKES PERFECT SENSE.
Harvey says I TOTALLY DON'T SEE
WHAT YOU'RE GETTING AT.
[SHUTTER SNAP]
Flick takes a picture of Harvey wearing the goggles.
Flick says WE NEED TO GET A BETTER LOOK
AT THIS, FROM THE OBSERVATORY!
Floyd says HEY, I KNOW
THE SHORTCUT.
FOLLOW ME!
He bumps into a post.
[CRASH, GRUNT]
They all gasp.
Floyd says UHH!
[MOANING]
Harvey says OOPS!
HERE, THESE SHOULD HELP.
He gives back the googles to Floyd.
Floyd says HEY, I KNEW I WAS
MISSING SOMETHING.
FOLLOW ME!
[CRASH]
Opal gasps
Floyd says OW!
LET'S JUST WALK.
They walk to the observatory.
Flick says HMM, STILL ORANGE.
BUT WAIT!
LOOK, THE SUN STILL
HASN'T SET YET!
Harvey says DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS?
THERE WILL BE A
CHEESE APOCALYPSE.
UNLESS...
[GROANS]
Flick says OR MAYBE, IT'S JUST THE
GLOW OF THE SETTING SUN THAT'S
MAKING THE MOON LOOK ORANGE.
Floyd says HA, HA, HA, HA..
BY GUM, THAT'S RIGHT!
IT'S HARVEST
MOON SEASON!
IT HAPPENS IN THE FALL WHEN
THE MOON IS LOWER IN THE SKY
AND DUST FROM THE CROPS BEING
HARVESTED GETS INTO THE AIR.
IT MAKES THE MOON LOOK ORANGE.
Flick says KIND OF LIKE LOOKING
THROUGH A COLOURED LENS,
JUST LIKE YOUR GOGGLES.
[SHUTTER SNAP]
He takes a picture of the orange moon.
Opal says WOW! THAT'S AMAZING,
AND WAY LESS SCARY.
Harvey says B-B-BUT...
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO
WITH ALL THESE CRACKERS?
He holds a big tray full of crackers.
Later that day, Flick finishes the news report and says DONE AND DONE!
HARVEY, RAISE THE ROOF.
Flick hits his watch and everyone says IT'S GLOW TIME!
The roof opens and glowing worms come out forming a loop.
The three glow worms appear on a big screen above the news office.
One of the worms says HERE'S THE LATEST BUZZ!
Snippets of the episode flash by as the worms sing
THEY WERE STUCK IN A MESS,
THEY HAD TO TAKE ACTION.
SHINE A LIGHT
ON THE SITUATION.
HOLD THE PRESSES.
TAKE A BREATH NOW.
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
AND THEY LOOKED ALL AROUND
AND THEY FOUND THE ANSWER...
BY USING THEIR 5 SENSES.
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
THEY BROKE THE STORY!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP, SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
AND THAT'S THE NEWS!
Back in the news centre, Gordon says GREAT STORY, SHUTTERBUGS!
SO, IT WAS JUST A HARVEST MOON?
Flick says YEP!
IT ONLY HAPPENS IN THE FALL.
THE MOON STAYS REAL LOW
IN THE EVENING SKY...
Opal says GIVING FARMERS MORE LIGHT
TO WORK WITH AT NIGHT.
Flick says THAT'S WHY IT'S
CALLED A HARVEST MOON.
IT HELPS WITH HARVESTING CROPS!
Gordon says WELL, THAT DOESN'T
SOUND BAD AT ALL.
IN FACT, IT SOUNDS LIKE
SOMETHING TO CELEBRATE.
Harvey stands in front of a pile of crackers.
He says HEY, CAN YOU KEEP IT
DOWN A LITTLE PLEASE?
I'M ON THE PHONE!
YES, HELLO?
THAT'S EXTRA, EXTRA,
EXTRA CHEESE PLEASE.
AS MUCH AS YOU CAN FIND.
I'VE... UH... GOT A FEW... UM...
CRACKERS TO TAKE CARE OF HERE.
The episode ends.
Flick flies through the night sky and says IT'S TIME TO LIGHT THINGS UP.
Now a shot of the forest city features the episode title that reads "Don?t hat it till you try it."
[PHONE RINGING]
Flick looks at his watch.
Gordon says FLICK! YOU THERE?
I NEED YOU TO BLOW
THE LID OFF A STORY.
Flick says BE THERE IN A FLASH BOSS.
He flies to the news centre where he meets Harvey and Opal.
They walk into Gordon?s office.
Flick says HEY GUYS!
GOOD TIMING, BUT WHERE'S GORDON!
Harvey says GORDON?
Opal says HIDEY HO?
Gordon says SHUTTERBUGS!
THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE HERE!
DID YOU HEAR?
THE MAYOR'S DECLARED A
DREADFUL NEW CELEBRATION -
RIDICULOUSLY LARGE HAT MONTH.
EVERYONE IN TOWN MUST WEAR
A RIDICULOUSLY LARGE HAT
FOR THE ENTIRE MONTH.
A picture of bugs wearing large hats appears.
Opal says WHOSE SILLY IDEA WAS THIS?
Gordon says BORIS THE BARBER'S.
IT'S KIND OF...
Harvey says AWESOME!
I LOVE WEARING HATS!
Gordon says BUT, THINK ABOUT IT!
HOW ON EARTH ARE YOU SUPPOSED
TO SHOWER WITH A HAT ON?
OR HAVE DINNER AT THE
DINNER TABLE WITH A HAT ON?
YOU CAN'T DO THAT.
ITS BAD MANNERS!
Harvey says WAIT, D-DOES THIS MEAN I
CAN'T EAT DINNER FOR A MONTH?
WE NEED TO STOP THIS.
NOW!
Flick says EASY, BIG FELLA.
WE JUST NEED TO GET THE SCOOP
AND SHED SOME LIGHT
ON THIS STORY.
Three colourful glowing worms sit at their desks in the office.
One of them turns around and says I THINK...
The worms start to sing WE CAN HELP.
WE CAN HELP.
WHEN YOU'RE IN THE DARK
OR LOST IN THE PARK
UH OH, WHAT?
DO YOU HEAR THAT FLY?
OH, WHAT'S THAT IN THE SKY?
ASK YOURSELF:
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
LIGHT! REAL BRIGHT!
LET'S MAKE IT
ALL SHINE - ALL RIGHT!
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
EVERYTHING
WILL BE ALL RIGHT!
SHED SOME LIGHT!
The bugs walk in the city.
Flick says ALRIGHT GUYS, LET'S
START WITH WHAT WE KNOW?
WHO?
Harvey says BORIS THE BARBER!
WHAT?
Opal says HE WANTS US TO WEAR
RIDICULOUSLY LARGE HATS.
WHERE?
Flick says ON OUR HEADS.
WHEN?
Harvey says ALL MONTH LONG, EVEN AT DINNER.
WHY?
Opal says THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO
LEARN FOR OUR STORY.
HOW?
Flick says BY INTERVIEWING THE BEE WHO
STARTED ALL THIS HAT BUZZ.
BORIS HIMSELF.
LET'S GO!
They fly to the barber shop.
A bee with a white moustache stands at the entrance beside a pile of hats. He wears a white t-shirt, turquoise suspenders and a big black hat.
[CROWD CHATTERS]
Boris hands in big hats to the bugs.
A bug says I'LL TAKE A HAT!
THANKS BORIS!
An ant says HEY MAN, THIS GUY IS
GIVING OUT FREE HATS!
Boris says HATS FOR EVERYBODY.
EVEN YOU!
Flick says UH,
HEY, BORIS.
Boris says SHUTTERBUGS!
YOU COME FOR HAT?
YOU HAVE FOUND THE PLACE.
Flick says UH, SO YEAH, ABOUT THE HATS.
WHAT GIVES?
Boris says WHAT?
YOU DON'T LIKE HAT?
YOU DON'T LIKE LOOKING COOL?
LOOK AT THAT COOL
GUY OVER THERE!
He points at an earwig wearing a big hat.
[HUMMING]
The earwig bumps into a post and says AH, DIDN'T SEE YOU!
Boris says OKAY, HE'S COOL,
BUT NOT SO SMART.
IGNORE HIM.
NO ONE LIKE THAT GUY.
COME, GO HAVE LOOK AROUND
REST OF TOWN FOR YOURSELF.
EVERYBODY LOVING HATS.
They walk around the city. The shutterbugs gasp.
Boris says YOU'LL SEE.
OH!
AND DON'T FORGET HATS!
Boris tosses a hat for each of the bugs.
Flick says WELL, I GUESS WE DO
NEED SOME PHOTOS.
They see the three glowing worms from the office waiting for the bus.
Flick says HA-HA! THIS WILL MAKE A
GREAT PICTURE FOR OUR STORY!
[SHUTTER SNAPS]
Someone says AHK. AHK. AHK
Opal says HUH? YOU GUYS HEAR THAT?
A young millipede with red legs and a big black hat tries to open a door.
She says AHK! AHK!
AHHHHH!
Opal says MONA,
WHAT'S WRONG?
Mona says WHAT'S WRONG?
I CAN'T GET INSIDE BECAUSE
OF THIS BIG CRAZY HAT.
I'M GOING TO BE
GROUNDED FOR SURE.
HELP ME, HARVEY!
Opal says IT'S OPAL.
Mona says OH, SORRY.
WELL, I BETTER GET BACK TO IT.
AHK. AHK. AHK.
AHK....
Flick says THIS IS
GETTING SERIOUS.
Harvey says I'LL SAY!
IT'S ALREADY
DINNER TIME!
IF WE CAN'T FIT
INSIDE MILLIE'S DINER,
HOW ARE WE EVEN GOING
TO GET CLOSE TO A TABLE?
WE'RE GOING TO STARVE!
Flick says LET'S NOT FLIP
OUT JUST YET.
WE CAN ALWAYS FLY OVER
TO THE CONVENIENCE STORE
AND GRAB A QUICK SNACK.
NO TABLES NEEDED
FOR THAT, HARVEY.
Harvey says YOU ARE A GENIUS!
They fly to the convenience store.
A red-headed fly stands at the door grumbling.
Floyd says I CAN'T
BELIEVE IT...
I CAN'T
BELIEVE IT!
Opal says FLOYD?
WHAT'S WRONG?
Floyd says HUH?
THAT YOU HARVEY?
Opal says ALL RIGHT, THIS IS GETTING OLD.
Flick says LET ME GUESS.
YOU CAN'T FIT INSIDE
THE STORE WITH YOUR HAT?
Floyd says EH, NO.
THE DOORS ARE
PLENTY TALL ENOUGH,
BUT THEY'VE GOT THIS SILLY "NO
ANTENNA, NO SERVICE" POLICY.
AND I'VE GOT THIS GIANT
HAT COVERING MY ANTENNA.
Harvey says UH, FLOYD.
DO YOU THINK THEY'D
LET ME BUY SNACKS?
Floyd says ARE YOU WEARING A HAT?
Harvey says Y... YES.
THEN NO, NADA.
NOBODY'S GETTING
ANY SNACKS TODAY.
NOT LIKE THIS.
Harvey faints.
Flick says YOU KNOW WHAT?
THIS HAT THING ISN'T
JUST INCONVENIENT.
IT'S DRIVING THE TOWN
INTO COMPLETE SHUTDOWN.
They look at the sky and see bugs bumping into each other because of the hats.
[CHATTER, CONFUSION]
Opal says WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?
WE CAN'T EVEN GET BACK TO THE
MUSE NOW, IT'S TOO DANGEROUS!
WE'D NEED A POLICE
ESCORT FROM...
[SIREN]
They all say DETECTIVE DEBBIE!
Detective Debbie, the pink dragon fly wearing a blue police uniform pops up. She wears a big black hat too.
She says IS THAT YOU, SHUTTERBUGS?
SORRY I'M LATE!
CAN'T SEE A THING WITH THIS
HAT FLIPPIN' AND FLOPPIN'
ALL OVER THE PLACE.
Opal says DEBBIE, DO YOU HAVE
ANY IDEA HOW...
Detective Debbie says HARVEY? IS THAT YOU?
[FRUSTRATED GROAN]
Harvey imitates Opal? voice and says YES IT'S ME, HARVEY!
I'M OFTEN TOLD I HAVE A
LOVELY... VERY LOVELY VOICE.
I ALSO REALLY DON'T KNOW
WHY WE HAVE TO WEAR
THESE RIDICULOUSLY
LARGE HATS.
IT'S MAKING EVERYONE -
AND OPAL, VERY ANGRY.
Flick says CAN YOU TELL US IF YOU'VE
HAD ANY LEADS, DEBBIE?
Detective Debbie says WELL, I CAN TELL YOU
THIS, FLICK MY MAN.
USUALLY WHEN SOMETHING
ODD HAPPENS OUT OF THE
BLUE LIKE THIS, IT'S BECAUSE
PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO KEEP
A LID ON A SECRET.
[MUFFLED CALL COMES IN OVER
DEBBIE'S WALKIE TALKIE]
ROGER THAT.
SORRY SHUTTERBUGS, GOTTA JET.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR STORY.
DEBS OUT!
She bumps into the pavement and says WHOA...WHOOAAAAA!
She disappears.
Flick says LID ON A SECRET?
WE'VE GOT TO MAKE
SENSE OF THIS...
He takes off his hat and says BY USING OUR SENSES!
The three little worms from the office appear on screen and sing OOOH, WE CAN HELP WITH THAT.
TELL ME 'BOUT THE SENSES.
SEEING.
HEARING.
TELL ME MORE, TELL ME MORE.
SMELLING.
TASTING.
THERE'S ONE MORE
SENSE YOU KNOW.
OH YEAH, TOUCHING!
ALL FIVE SENSES.
NOW IT'S MAKING SENSE.
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
YOU GOTTA USE
ALL YOUR SENSES.
OH YEAH!
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
IT'S REALLY,
REALLY,
REALLY...
MAKING SENSE!
Opal and Harvey take off their hats. Flick touches his watch and three glowing goggles appear. They bugs now wear the goggles.
Flick says LET'S FIND BORIS AGAIN.
THERE'S GOT TO BE SOME TINY
DETAIL HE DIDN'T SHARE
WITH US THE FIRST TIME.
They fly back to Boris barber.
Boris stands outside looking at the mirror. He takes off his hat.
Flick says GUYS, CHECK THIS OUT.
[SHUTTER SNAP]
Flick continues DO YOU SEE WHAT I'M
SEEING UNDER BORIS'S LID?
Opal says HIS HAIR IS...
Harvey says AWFUL.
HEY BORIS, WHY DID YOU
DO THAT TO YOUR HAIR?
He puts on the hat quickly.
Flick says WAIT A SECOND.
THE HATS...
IT'S JUST TO COVER UP YOUR HAIR?
Boris says BORIS IS SORRY, SHUTTERBUGS.
I ONLY WEAR HAT TO HIDE
SILLY HAIRCUT I GIVE MYSELF!
IT'S TERRIBLE!
Flick says SO, YOU GOT THE REST OF
THE TOWN TO WEAR HATS...
Boris says SO NOBODY WILL ASK BORIS WHY
HE WEARING SILLY HAT ALL DAY.
IF THEY ASK ABOUT HAT,
AND I TAKE OFF HAT,
PEOPLE WILL SEE HAIRCUT -
IT WILL RUIN BUSINESS FOREVER!
Flick says BORIS, IT'S
NOT REALLY THAT BAD.
Harvey says YES IT IS.
Opal says IT'S ACTUALLY
KIND OF COOL!
Boris says IT, IT IS?
Flick says SURE IT IS!
MAYBE IF YOU CHANGED
THE WAY YOU LOOK AT IT,
YOU MIGHT EVEN CONVINCE OTHER
BUGS THAT IT'S COOL TOO.
Opal says AND START
A NEW TREND.
Flick says AFTER ALL, IT'S NOT THE
WAY YOUR HAIR LOOKS,
ITS HOW YOU
LOOK AT YOURSELF.
Boris says I...
I GUESS THAT TRUE.
Flick says AND DON'T FORGET BORIS, IF
EVERYONE IN TOWN SPENDS AN
ENTIRE MONTH WITH HATS ON THEIR
HEADS, THEY WON'T NEED HAIRCUTS.
WHAT WILL THAT DO TO BUSINESS?
Boris says BUZZING BUMBLEBEE!
I NO THINK OF THAT.
THIS IS EMERGENCY!
Flick says DON'T WORRY,
WE CAN JUST CANCEL RIDICULOUSLY
LARGE HAT MONTH AND...
Boris says NO!
YOU NO UNDERSTAND!
THE ONLY PERSON
WHO CAN CANCEL
RIDICULOUSLY LARGE
HAT MONTH IS MAYOR!
AND EVER SINCE HOLIDAY START,
NOBODY CAN TELL WHO ANYBODY
ELSE IS, SO NOBODY CAN FIND HER.
Opal says I GUESS EVERYONE DOES LOOK THE
SAME WEARING IDENTICAL HATS.
Boris says IF WE CANNOT FIND MAYOR,
HAT MONTH WILL NEVER END, AND-
I WILL NEVER EAT AGAIN!
He cries.
Flick says HEY! LOOK AT THIS.
He shows a picture of Mayor Carla wearing a hat.
He continues SEE HOW MAYOR CARLA'S HAT
IS TALLER THAN THE REST?
WE JUST NEED TO FIND
THE TALLEST HAT IN TOWN.
Opal says IT'S LIKE A GIANT GAME
OF SPOT THE DIFFERENCE.
EASY PEASY!
They walk around the city. All the bugs wear big black hats. A mosquito in a purple jacket appears.
Flick says MAYOR CARLA?
MAYOR?
Boris says MAYOR, I SO SORRY!
I CHANGE MY MIND.
CAN YOU PLEASE CANCEL
RIDICULOUSLY LARGE HAT MONTH?
PRETTY PLEASE?
Mayor Carla says OH THANK HEAVENS, YES.
I'VE BEEN LOST OUT HERE ALL DAY.
YAH!
[CHEERING]
The bugs toss their hats to the air.
[SHUTTER SNAP,
CHEERING CONTINUES]
Later that day, Flick finishes the news report and says DONE AND DONE!
HARVEY, RAISE THE ROOF.
Flick hits his watch and everyone says IT'S GLOW TIME!
The roof opens and glowing worms come out forming a loop.

SCOOP, SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
AND THAT'S THE NEWS!
Back in the news centre, Gordon says GREAT STORY, SHUTTERBUGS!
I'M SO GLAD THE TOWN CAN
FINALLY GO BACK TO NORMAL.
I WAS SO WORRIED WHAT WOULD
HAPPEN IF WE COULDN'T ALL EAT
TOGETHER AT THE DINNER TABLE.
Flick says NO KIDDING!
THAT MUST MAKE YOU
HAPPY, RIGHT HARVEY?
Harvey sits in front of a tray with food.
He says HAPPY!
AND LOOKING FABULOUS!
The show ends and the credits roll.

The song goes SHUTTERBUGS!
Flick flies throw the pond past a large toad and through leaves and cattails.

SHUTTERBUGS
Flick, Harvey, and Opal fly by the title written in the sky that reads "Shutterbugs."
The episode title reads "When the moon hits your eye."
[PHONE RINGING]
Flick looks at his watch and Gordon says FLICK, COME QUICK!
SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAS
HAPPENED TO THE MOON.
Flick says BE THERE IN A FLASH BOSS!
He flies to the news centre where he meets Harvey and Opal. They walk into Gordon?s office.
Flick says HEY, GUYS! GOOD TIMING.
WHERE'S GORDON?
Harvey says HEYO?
Opal says GORDON?
Gordon is an older caterpillar with a white goatee and glasses.
He pops up and says SHUTTERBUGS!
THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE HERE.
WE HAVE A HUGE PROBLEM!
IT'S THE MOON!
They all say
WHAT HAPPENED?
Gordon says IT'S TURNED INTO A...
GIANT PIZZA.
LOOK!
A picture of an orange moon appears on a screen.
Harvey says WHOA!
THIS IS AMAZING!
Gordon says AMAZING?
GIANT PIZZA'S DON'T FLOAT.
WHAT IF IT FALLS FROM THE SKY?
AND, AHH...OHHH...I
NEED MY SUNGLASSES.
He puts on a pair of sunglasses.
Opal says WHAT ARE THOSE GOING TO DO?
Gordon says WHEN THE MOON HITS MY EYE LIKE A
BIG PIZZA PIE, THAT'S A PROBLEM!
[CHUCKLE]
BUT NOT WITH THESE, BABIES.
Flick says DON'T WORRY, GORDON.
WE'LL GET THE SCOOP AND SHED
SOME LIGHT ON THE STORY.
Three colourful glowing worms sit at their desks in the office.
One of them turns around and says I THINK...
The worms start to sing WE CAN HELP.
WE CAN HELP.
WHEN YOU'RE IN THE DARK
OR LOST IN THE PARK
UH OH, WHAT?
DO YOU HEAR THAT FLY?
OH, WHAT'S THAT IN THE SKY?
ASK YOURSELF:
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
LIGHT! REAL BRIGHT!
LET'S MAKE IT
ALL SHINE - ALL RIGHT!
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
EVERYTHING
WILL BE ALL RIGHT!
SHED SOME LIGHT!
The bugs fly to the market. Harvey passes by a handcart with a big grape and stops.
Harvey says WHOA!
Flick says HARVEY? WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Harvey says ALL THIS TALK OF GIANT-SIZED
FOOD IS MAKING ME HUNGRY.
Flick says OH BOY...
A waiter pops up and Harvey says YES, I WOULD LIKE A
LARGE PLATE OF CHEESE.
LARGE, NOT SMALL.
LARGE CHEESE.
ALSO SOME CRACKERS.
AND, AHH... OH GRAPES!
Opal says FLICK, CHECK THIS OUT.
HERE'S WHAT THE NORMAL
MOON LOOKS LIKE...
She shows a picture of the moon in her tablet.
[SHUTTER SNAP]
She takes a picture of the moon.
Opal says AND THIS IS WHAT'S UP THERE NOW.
Flick says PRETTY SIMILAR!
WHERE DID THE REAL MOON
GO, AND WHEN DID IT LEAVE?
WE NEED TO FIND OUT
WHY THIS IS HAPPENING.
Opal says HOW ARE WE GOING TO DO THAT?
THE MOON IS SO FAR AWAY.
Harvey appears carrying a big tray with a piece of cheese and a grape.
He says HEY, YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT
I LOVE ABOUT PIZZA?
CHEESE!
NICE, STRINGY, STICKY CHEE...
He gasps and says GUYS! CHEESE MELTS!
Opal says HARVEY, ENOUGH ABOUT
THE CHEESE ALREADY.
Harvey says BUT IF THE SUN GETS TOO
CLOSE TO THE PIZZA MOON,
THE CHEESE WILL MELT AND
DRIP ALL OVER MURKY MARSH!
Flick gasps and says THAT WOULD BE...
THAT WOULD BE...
Harvey says DELICIOUS!
He eats a piece of cheese and says HMM...
Opal says HARVEY!
IT WOULD BE DANGEROUS.
Harvey says DANGEROUSLY DELICIOUS?
Flick says IF SOMETHING'S HAPPENING
TO THE MOON, WELL,
IT'S GOING TO CHANGE...
EVERYTHING.
Harvey says CHANGE?
BUT, I DON'T LIKE CHANGE!
OH NO!
THIS IS AWFUL!
I... I...
[HYPERVENTILATING]
Opal says SLOW IT DOWN, HARVEY.
SOMETIMES CHANGE
CAN BE A GOOD THING.
LET'S NOT OVERREACT
UNTIL WE GET MORE FACTS.
OKAY?
Harvey says OKAY. OH BOY!
He eats cheese and says ONE HORSE FLY, TWO HORSE
FLIES, THREE HORSE FLIES...
Flick says HEY, LOOK AT THIS AGAIN.
He compares the two pictures of the moon and says SEE HERE AND HERE?
THEY HAVE THE SAME
CRATERS IN THE SAME PLACE.
THEY'RE NOT JUST SIMILAR...
Opal says THEY'RE EXACTLY THE SAME,
OTHER THAN THE COLOUR.
Flick says WHY WOULD THE COLOUR SWITCH?
Harvey says MAYBE THAT'S IT ? A SWITCHEROO!
MAYBE THE REAL MOON'S BEEN...
STOLEN!
[LAUGHTER]
Flick says HARVEY, TRUST US,
IF THE MOON HAD BEEN STOLEN,
THE POLICE WOULD HAVE...
[WAILING SIREN]
They all say DETECTIVE DEBBIE!
Detective Debbie, the pink dragon fly wearing a blue police uniform pops up and says SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG
TO GET HERE, SHUTTERBUGS.
TOWN'S GOING BINGO-BANGO-BONKERS
OVER THE MOON BEING STOLEN.
Harvey says HUH?
MAN, I'M GOOD!
Flick says STOLEN?
FOR REAL?
Detective Debbie says GALLOPING GADFLIES NO!
THAT'S JUST FOLKS
JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS.
THE MOON IS BIG, MAN!
IT'S A QUARTER THE
SIZE OF THE EARTH.
[MUFFLED CALL ON DETECTIVE
DEBBIE'S WALKIE-TALKIE.]
ROGER THAT!
SORRY SHUTTERBUGS,
I'VE GOTTA JET.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR STORY.
DEBS OUT!
She disappears.
Opal says I'LL NEVER GET
HOW SHE DOES THAT.
Flick says I'LL NEVER GET HOW THIS COULD
HAPPEN TO SOMETHING SO BIG.
A QUARTER THE SIZE OF THE EARTH!
Harvey says THAT'S GOTTA BE
BIGGER THAN... THAN.
HOW BIG IS THAT?
He shows the grape.
He laughs.
Opal holds the grape and says IF THIS IS THE EARTH,
A QUARTER OF THE SIZE
WOULD BE THIS.
She grabs a smaller grape.
She continues EXACTLY FOUR TIMES SMALLER.
Harvey says UH, GUYS?
THAT'S REALLY BIG.
[GULPS]
ARE YOU THINKING
WHAT I'M THINKING?
They say NEVER.
Harvey says IF THE MOON IS THAT BIG AND IT'S
MELTING OOEY GOOEY PIZZA CHEESE,
WE'RE GOING TO NEED
WAY MORE CRACKERS.
HARVEY, NO ONE COULD
MAKE A PIZZA THAT BIG.
I DON'T KNOW!
MAYBE THEY ORDERED AN
EXTRA-EXTRA-EXTRA-EXTRA LARGE!
Opal says NO, FLICK'S RIGHT.
IT'S GOTTA BE SOMETHING ELSE.
MAYBE THE MOON'S NOT MISSING,
MAYBE IT'S JUST...
Harvey says SICK! OPAL, YOU'RE BRILLIANT.
WE SHOULD ASK A DOCTOR.
IT MIGHT BE 'MOON FLU'!
Opal says AHH...
Harvey flies away.
Flick says HARVEY!
Opal says WAIT!
Harvey flies to the hospital.
[SIRENS AND HORNS BLARE]
Floyd is a red-headed fly. He stops the bugs and an ambulance passes by.
Floyd says WHOA! GOT TO LOOK BOTH WAYS!
Flick says PHEW!
THANKS, FLOYD.
HEY, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?
Harvey gasps and says MOON FLU?
Floyd says HUH?
NAH, NAH, NAH, NAH!
JUST FLEW INTO A BUILDING WHILE
STARING AT THAT FANCY MOON.
IT WAS SO BRIGHT
AND SO BEAUTIFUL.
I STRAINED MY EYES
LOOKING AT IT!
Opal says YIKES! DID IT HURT?
Floyd says NOT AS MUCH AS WHEN I CRASHED
INTO THE OBSERVATORY!
CRASH! BOOM! BLAMO!
[LAUGHS]
NOW I'VE GOT TO
WEAR THESE FUNNY GOGGLES
UNTIL MY EYES GET BETTER.
THEY MAKE EVERYTHING LOOK GREEN.
Harvey says HEY!
DO YOU THINK I CAN TRY THEM ON?
I MIGHT NEED SOMETHING
TO PROTECT MY EYES WHEN
THE MOON STARTS DRIPPING.
Floyd says OKAY..?
Harvey says YES!
He tries on the googles.
[SMACK]
WHOA!
THAT'S REALLY...
YOU'VE GOT A SMALL HEAD, FLOYD.
THESE ARE...
[GASPS]...OH WOW YOU GUYS!
THE MOON IS GREEN NOW.
IT'S GREEN!
Opal says IT'S NOT GREEN,
IT'S STILL ORANGE.
Harvey says NUH UH!
TOTALLY GREEN!
Flick says I STILL DON'T THINK WE'RE
LOOKING AT THIS THE RIGHT WAY.
WE'VE GOT
TO MAKE SENSE OF THIS,
WITH OUR SENSES!
The three little worms from the office appear on screen and sing OOOH, WE CAN HELP WITH THAT.
TELL ME 'BOUT THE SENSES.
SEEING.
HEARING.
TELL ME MORE, TELL ME MORE.
SMELLING.
TASTING.
THERE'S ONE MORE
SENSE YOU KNOW.
OH YEAH, TOUCHING!
ALL FIVE SENSES.
NOW IT'S MAKING SENSE.
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
YOU GOTTA USE
ALL YOUR SENSES.
OH YEAH!
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
IT'S REALLY,
REALLY,
REALLY...
MAKING SENSE!
Flick touches his watch. Two glowing goggles appear. They watch at the moon changing its colours.
Opal says RED...
BLUE...
GREEN...
Flick says HEY! THAT'S IT!
Opal says WHAT'S IT?
Flick says MAYBE IT'S NOT THE MOON THAT'S
CHANGED, MAYBE IT'S SOMETHING
IN FRONT OF THE MOON THAT HAS,
LIKE THE LENSES IN OUR GOGGLES.
Opal says WHOA! THAT MAKES PERFECT SENSE.
Harvey says I TOTALLY DON'T SEE
WHAT YOU'RE GETTING AT.
[SHUTTER SNAP]
Flick takes a picture of Harvey wearing the goggles.
Flick says WE NEED TO GET A BETTER LOOK
AT THIS, FROM THE OBSERVATORY!
Floyd says HEY, I KNOW
THE SHORTCUT.
FOLLOW ME!
He bumps into a post.
[CRASH, GRUNT]
They all gasp.
Floyd says UHH!
[MOANING]
Harvey says OOPS!
HERE, THESE SHOULD HELP.
He gives back the googles to Floyd.
Floyd says HEY, I KNEW I WAS
MISSING SOMETHING.
FOLLOW ME!
[CRASH]
Opal gasps
Floyd says OW!
LET'S JUST WALK.
They walk to the observatory.
Flick says HMM, STILL ORANGE.
BUT WAIT!
LOOK, THE SUN STILL
HASN'T SET YET!
Harvey says DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS?
THERE WILL BE A
CHEESE APOCALYPSE.
UNLESS...
[GROANS]
Flick says OR MAYBE, IT'S JUST THE
GLOW OF THE SETTING SUN THAT'S
MAKING THE MOON LOOK ORANGE.
Floyd says HA, HA, HA, HA..
BY GUM, THAT'S RIGHT!
IT'S HARVEST
MOON SEASON!
IT HAPPENS IN THE FALL WHEN
THE MOON IS LOWER IN THE SKY
AND DUST FROM THE CROPS BEING
HARVESTED GETS INTO THE AIR.
IT MAKES THE MOON LOOK ORANGE.
Flick says KIND OF LIKE LOOKING
THROUGH A COLOURED LENS,
JUST LIKE YOUR GOGGLES.
[SHUTTER SNAP]
He takes a picture of the orange moon.
Opal says WOW! THAT'S AMAZING,
AND WAY LESS SCARY.
Harvey says B-B-BUT...
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO
WITH ALL THESE CRACKERS?
He holds a big tray full of crackers.
Later that day, Flick finishes the news report and says DONE AND DONE!
HARVEY, RAISE THE ROOF.
Flick hits his watch and everyone says IT'S GLOW TIME!
The roof opens and glowing worms come out forming a loop.
The three glow worms appear on a big screen above the news office.
One of the worms says HERE'S THE LATEST BUZZ!
Snippets of the episode flash by as the worms sing
THEY WERE STUCK IN A MESS,
THEY HAD TO TAKE ACTION.
SHINE A LIGHT
ON THE SITUATION.
HOLD THE PRESSES.
TAKE A BREATH NOW.
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
AND THEY LOOKED ALL AROUND
AND THEY FOUND THE ANSWER...
BY USING THEIR 5 SENSES.
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
THEY BROKE THE STORY!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP, SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
AND THAT'S THE NEWS!
Back in the news centre, Gordon says GREAT STORY, SHUTTERBUGS!
SO, IT WAS JUST A HARVEST MOON?
Flick says YEP!
IT ONLY HAPPENS IN THE FALL.
THE MOON STAYS REAL LOW
IN THE EVENING SKY...
Opal says GIVING FARMERS MORE LIGHT
TO WORK WITH AT NIGHT.
Flick says THAT'S WHY IT'S
CALLED A HARVEST MOON.
IT HELPS WITH HARVESTING CROPS!
Gordon says WELL, THAT DOESN'T
SOUND BAD AT ALL.
IN FACT, IT SOUNDS LIKE
SOMETHING TO CELEBRATE.
Harvey stands in front of a pile of crackers.
He says HEY, CAN YOU KEEP IT
DOWN A LITTLE PLEASE?
I'M ON THE PHONE!
YES, HELLO?
THAT'S EXTRA, EXTRA,
EXTRA CHEESE PLEASE.
AS MUCH AS YOU CAN FIND.
I'VE... UH... GOT A FEW... UM...
CRACKERS TO TAKE CARE OF HERE.
The episode ends.
Flick flies through the night sky and says IT'S TIME TO LIGHT THINGS UP.
Now a shot of the forest city features the episode title that reads "Don?t hat it till you try it."
[PHONE RINGING]
Flick looks at his watch.
Gordon says FLICK! YOU THERE?
I NEED YOU TO BLOW
THE LID OFF A STORY.
Flick says BE THERE IN A FLASH BOSS.
He flies to the news centre where he meets Harvey and Opal.
They walk into Gordon?s office.
Flick says HEY GUYS!
GOOD TIMING, BUT WHERE'S GORDON!
Harvey says GORDON?
Opal says HIDEY HO?
Gordon says SHUTTERBUGS!
THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE HERE!
DID YOU HEAR?
THE MAYOR'S DECLARED A
DREADFUL NEW CELEBRATION -
RIDICULOUSLY LARGE HAT MONTH.
EVERYONE IN TOWN MUST WEAR
A RIDICULOUSLY LARGE HAT
FOR THE ENTIRE MONTH.
A picture of bugs wearing large hats appears.
Opal says WHOSE SILLY IDEA WAS THIS?
Gordon says BORIS THE BARBER'S.
IT'S KIND OF...
Harvey says AWESOME!
I LOVE WEARING HATS!
Gordon says BUT, THINK ABOUT IT!
HOW ON EARTH ARE YOU SUPPOSED
TO SHOWER WITH A HAT ON?
OR HAVE DINNER AT THE
DINNER TABLE WITH A HAT ON?
YOU CAN'T DO THAT.
ITS BAD MANNERS!
Harvey says WAIT, D-DOES THIS MEAN I
CAN'T EAT DINNER FOR A MONTH?
WE NEED TO STOP THIS.
NOW!
Flick says EASY, BIG FELLA.
WE JUST NEED TO GET THE SCOOP
AND SHED SOME LIGHT
ON THIS STORY.
Three colourful glowing worms sit at their desks in the office.
One of them turns around and says I THINK...
The worms start to sing WE CAN HELP.
WE CAN HELP.
WHEN YOU'RE IN THE DARK
OR LOST IN THE PARK
UH OH, WHAT?
DO YOU HEAR THAT FLY?
OH, WHAT'S THAT IN THE SKY?
ASK YOURSELF:
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
LIGHT! REAL BRIGHT!
LET'S MAKE IT
ALL SHINE - ALL RIGHT!
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
EVERYTHING
WILL BE ALL RIGHT!
SHED SOME LIGHT!
The bugs walk in the city.
Flick says ALRIGHT GUYS, LET'S
START WITH WHAT WE KNOW?
WHO?
Harvey says BORIS THE BARBER!
WHAT?
Opal says HE WANTS US TO WEAR
RIDICULOUSLY LARGE HATS.
WHERE?
Flick says ON OUR HEADS.
WHEN?
Harvey says ALL MONTH LONG, EVEN AT DINNER.
WHY?
Opal says THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO
LEARN FOR OUR STORY.
HOW?
Flick says BY INTERVIEWING THE BEE WHO
STARTED ALL THIS HAT BUZZ.
BORIS HIMSELF.
LET'S GO!
They fly to the barber shop.
A bee with a white moustache stands at the entrance beside a pile of hats. He wears a white t-shirt, turquoise suspenders and a big black hat.
[CROWD CHATTERS]
Boris hands in big hats to the bugs.
A bug says I'LL TAKE A HAT!
THANKS BORIS!
An ant says HEY MAN, THIS GUY IS
GIVING OUT FREE HATS!
Boris says HATS FOR EVERYBODY.
EVEN YOU!
Flick says UH,
HEY, BORIS.
Boris says SHUTTERBUGS!
YOU COME FOR HAT?
YOU HAVE FOUND THE PLACE.
Flick says UH, SO YEAH, ABOUT THE HATS.
WHAT GIVES?
Boris says WHAT?
YOU DON'T LIKE HAT?
YOU DON'T LIKE LOOKING COOL?
LOOK AT THAT COOL
GUY OVER THERE!
He points at an earwig wearing a big hat.
[HUMMING]
The earwig bumps into a post and says AH, DIDN'T SEE YOU!
Boris says OKAY, HE'S COOL,
BUT NOT SO SMART.
IGNORE HIM.
NO ONE LIKE THAT GUY.
COME, GO HAVE LOOK AROUND
REST OF TOWN FOR YOURSELF.
EVERYBODY LOVING HATS.
They walk around the city. The shutterbugs gasp.
Boris says YOU'LL SEE.
OH!
AND DON'T FORGET HATS!
Boris tosses a hat for each of the bugs.
Flick says WELL, I GUESS WE DO
NEED SOME PHOTOS.
They see the three glowing worms from the office waiting for the bus.
Flick says HA-HA! THIS WILL MAKE A
GREAT PICTURE FOR OUR STORY!
[SHUTTER SNAPS]
Someone says AHK. AHK. AHK
Opal says HUH? YOU GUYS HEAR THAT?
A young millipede with red legs and a big black hat tries to open a door.
She says AHK! AHK!
AHHHHH!
Opal says MONA,
WHAT'S WRONG?
Mona says WHAT'S WRONG?
I CAN'T GET INSIDE BECAUSE
OF THIS BIG CRAZY HAT.
I'M GOING TO BE
GROUNDED FOR SURE.
HELP ME, HARVEY!
Opal says IT'S OPAL.
Mona says OH, SORRY.
WELL, I BETTER GET BACK TO IT.
AHK. AHK. AHK.
AHK....
Flick says THIS IS
GETTING SERIOUS.
Harvey says I'LL SAY!
IT'S ALREADY
DINNER TIME!
IF WE CAN'T FIT
INSIDE MILLIE'S DINER,
HOW ARE WE EVEN GOING
TO GET CLOSE TO A TABLE?
WE'RE GOING TO STARVE!
Flick says LET'S NOT FLIP
OUT JUST YET.
WE CAN ALWAYS FLY OVER
TO THE CONVENIENCE STORE
AND GRAB A QUICK SNACK.
NO TABLES NEEDED
FOR THAT, HARVEY.
Harvey says YOU ARE A GENIUS!
They fly to the convenience store.
A red-headed fly stands at the door grumbling.
Floyd says I CAN'T
BELIEVE IT...
I CAN'T
BELIEVE IT!
Opal says FLOYD?
WHAT'S WRONG?
Floyd says HUH?
THAT YOU HARVEY?
Opal says ALL RIGHT, THIS IS GETTING OLD.
Flick says LET ME GUESS.
YOU CAN'T FIT INSIDE
THE STORE WITH YOUR HAT?
Floyd says EH, NO.
THE DOORS ARE
PLENTY TALL ENOUGH,
BUT THEY'VE GOT THIS SILLY "NO
ANTENNA, NO SERVICE" POLICY.
AND I'VE GOT THIS GIANT
HAT COVERING MY ANTENNA.
Harvey says UH, FLOYD.
DO YOU THINK THEY'D
LET ME BUY SNACKS?
Floyd says ARE YOU WEARING A HAT?
Harvey says Y... YES.
THEN NO, NADA.
NOBODY'S GETTING
ANY SNACKS TODAY.
NOT LIKE THIS.
Harvey faints.
Flick says YOU KNOW WHAT?
THIS HAT THING ISN'T
JUST INCONVENIENT.
IT'S DRIVING THE TOWN
INTO COMPLETE SHUTDOWN.
They look at the sky and see bugs bumping into each other because of the hats.
[CHATTER, CONFUSION]
Opal says WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?
WE CAN'T EVEN GET BACK TO THE
MUSE NOW, IT'S TOO DANGEROUS!
WE'D NEED A POLICE
ESCORT FROM...
[SIREN]
They all say DETECTIVE DEBBIE!
Detective Debbie, the pink dragon fly wearing a blue police uniform pops up. She wears a big black hat too.
She says IS THAT YOU, SHUTTERBUGS?
SORRY I'M LATE!
CAN'T SEE A THING WITH THIS
HAT FLIPPIN' AND FLOPPIN'
ALL OVER THE PLACE.
Opal says DEBBIE, DO YOU HAVE
ANY IDEA HOW...
Detective Debbie says HARVEY? IS THAT YOU?
[FRUSTRATED GROAN]
Harvey imitates Opal? voice and says YES IT'S ME, HARVEY!
I'M OFTEN TOLD I HAVE A
LOVELY... VERY LOVELY VOICE.
I ALSO REALLY DON'T KNOW
WHY WE HAVE TO WEAR
THESE RIDICULOUSLY
LARGE HATS.
IT'S MAKING EVERYONE -
AND OPAL, VERY ANGRY.
Flick says CAN YOU TELL US IF YOU'VE
HAD ANY LEADS, DEBBIE?
Detective Debbie says WELL, I CAN TELL YOU
THIS, FLICK MY MAN.
USUALLY WHEN SOMETHING
ODD HAPPENS OUT OF THE
BLUE LIKE THIS, IT'S BECAUSE
PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO KEEP
A LID ON A SECRET.
[MUFFLED CALL COMES IN OVER
DEBBIE'S WALKIE TALKIE]
ROGER THAT.
SORRY SHUTTERBUGS, GOTTA JET.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR STORY.
DEBS OUT!
She bumps into the pavement and says WHOA...WHOOAAAAA!
She disappears.
Flick says LID ON A SECRET?
WE'VE GOT TO MAKE
SENSE OF THIS...
He takes off his hat and says BY USING OUR SENSES!
The three little worms from the office appear on screen and sing OOOH, WE CAN HELP WITH THAT.
TELL ME 'BOUT THE SENSES.
SEEING.
HEARING.
TELL ME MORE, TELL ME MORE.
SMELLING.
TASTING.
THERE'S ONE MORE
SENSE YOU KNOW.
OH YEAH, TOUCHING!
ALL FIVE SENSES.
NOW IT'S MAKING SENSE.
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
YOU GOTTA USE
ALL YOUR SENSES.
OH YEAH!
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
IT'S REALLY,
REALLY,
REALLY...
MAKING SENSE!
Opal and Harvey take off their hats. Flick touches his watch and three glowing goggles appear. They bugs now wear the goggles.
Flick says LET'S FIND BORIS AGAIN.
THERE'S GOT TO BE SOME TINY
DETAIL HE DIDN'T SHARE
WITH US THE FIRST TIME.
They fly back to Boris barber.
Boris stands outside looking at the mirror. He takes off his hat.
Flick says GUYS, CHECK THIS OUT.
[SHUTTER SNAP]
Flick continues DO YOU SEE WHAT I'M
SEEING UNDER BORIS'S LID?
Opal says HIS HAIR IS...
Harvey says AWFUL.
HEY BORIS, WHY DID YOU
DO THAT TO YOUR HAIR?
He puts on the hat quickly.
Flick says WAIT A SECOND.
THE HATS...
IT'S JUST TO COVER UP YOUR HAIR?
Boris says BORIS IS SORRY, SHUTTERBUGS.
I ONLY WEAR HAT TO HIDE
SILLY HAIRCUT I GIVE MYSELF!
IT'S TERRIBLE!
Flick says SO, YOU GOT THE REST OF
THE TOWN TO WEAR HATS...
Boris says SO NOBODY WILL ASK BORIS WHY
HE WEARING SILLY HAT ALL DAY.
IF THEY ASK ABOUT HAT,
AND I TAKE OFF HAT,
PEOPLE WILL SEE HAIRCUT -
IT WILL RUIN BUSINESS FOREVER!
Flick says BORIS, IT'S
NOT REALLY THAT BAD.
Harvey says YES IT IS.
Opal says IT'S ACTUALLY
KIND OF COOL!
Boris says IT, IT IS?
Flick says SURE IT IS!
MAYBE IF YOU CHANGED
THE WAY YOU LOOK AT IT,
YOU MIGHT EVEN CONVINCE OTHER
BUGS THAT IT'S COOL TOO.
Opal says AND START
A NEW TREND.
Flick says AFTER ALL, IT'S NOT THE
WAY YOUR HAIR LOOKS,
ITS HOW YOU
LOOK AT YOURSELF.
Boris says I...
I GUESS THAT TRUE.
Flick says AND DON'T FORGET BORIS, IF
EVERYONE IN TOWN SPENDS AN
ENTIRE MONTH WITH HATS ON THEIR
HEADS, THEY WON'T NEED HAIRCUTS.
WHAT WILL THAT DO TO BUSINESS?
Boris says BUZZING BUMBLEBEE!
I NO THINK OF THAT.
THIS IS EMERGENCY!
Flick says DON'T WORRY,
WE CAN JUST CANCEL RIDICULOUSLY
LARGE HAT MONTH AND...
Boris says NO!
YOU NO UNDERSTAND!
THE ONLY PERSON
WHO CAN CANCEL
RIDICULOUSLY LARGE
HAT MONTH IS MAYOR!
AND EVER SINCE HOLIDAY START,
NOBODY CAN TELL WHO ANYBODY
ELSE IS, SO NOBODY CAN FIND HER.
Opal says I GUESS EVERYONE DOES LOOK THE
SAME WEARING IDENTICAL HATS.
Boris says IF WE CANNOT FIND MAYOR,
HAT MONTH WILL NEVER END, AND-
I WILL NEVER EAT AGAIN!
He cries.
Flick says HEY! LOOK AT THIS.
He shows a picture of Mayor Carla wearing a hat.
He continues SEE HOW MAYOR CARLA'S HAT
IS TALLER THAN THE REST?
WE JUST NEED TO FIND
THE TALLEST HAT IN TOWN.
Opal says IT'S LIKE A GIANT GAME
OF SPOT THE DIFFERENCE.
EASY PEASY!
They walk around the city. All the bugs wear big black hats. A mosquito in a purple jacket appears.
Flick says MAYOR CARLA?
MAYOR?
Boris says MAYOR, I SO SORRY!
I CHANGE MY MIND.
CAN YOU PLEASE CANCEL
RIDICULOUSLY LARGE HAT MONTH?
PRETTY PLEASE?
Mayor Carla says OH THANK HEAVENS, YES.
I'VE BEEN LOST OUT HERE ALL DAY.
YAH!
[CHEERING]
The bugs toss their hats to the air.
[SHUTTER SNAP,
CHEERING CONTINUES]
Later that day, Flick finishes the news report and says DONE AND DONE!
HARVEY, RAISE THE ROOF.
Flick hits his watch and everyone says IT'S GLOW TIME!
The roof opens and glowing worms come out forming a loop.
The three glow worms appear on a big screen above the news office.

WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
AND THEY LOOKED ALL AROUND
AND THEY FOUND THE ANSWER...

THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
THEY BROKE THE STORY!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP, SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
AND THAT'S THE NEWS!
Back in the news centre, Gordon says GREAT STORY, SHUTTERBUGS!
I'M SO GLAD THE TOWN CAN
FINALLY GO BACK TO NORMAL.
I WAS SO WORRIED WHAT WOULD
HAPPEN IF WE COULDN'T ALL EAT
TOGETHER AT THE DINNER TABLE.
Flick says NO KIDDING!
THAT MUST MAKE YOU
HAPPY, RIGHT HARVEY?
Harvey sits in front of a tray with food.
He says HAPPY!
AND LOOKING FABULOUS!
The show ends and the credits roll.
