In animation, a bird, a dog, a cat, and a robot slide down a xylophone slide.

Ping is a yellow bird, Pong is a brown dog with blue ears and Matilda is a black cat.

Ping sings a song that says WE'RE PLAYING A SONG
WITH MATILDA AND PONG
COME MR. PRICKLES
AND SING ALONG

Mister Prickles, a porcupine, waters the flowers in a garden.

The friends float in soap bubbles and musical notes.

Ping sings MUSIC'S IN EVERY
WORD AND SOUND
UP AND DOWN AND ALL AROUND

They fall on a drum.

Ping sings HI I'M PING AND THIS IS PONG
WITH OUR FRIENDS WE'LL
ROCK THIS SONG

The name of the show reads "Ping and friends."

The name of the episode reads "The birthday beat."

As they go for a ride, Ping and Pong sing a song that goes THIS IS YOUR BIRTHDAY SONG
SUNG TO YOU BY PING AND PONG
WE WANT YOU TO SING ALONG
TO THE PING AND PONG
BIRTHDAY SONG

Matilda follows a roll of wrapping paper and says STOP THAT
WRAPPING PAPER!

Ping says ARE ALL THOSE GIFTS
FOR THE SHEEP?

Matilda says YES! I'M ALMOST DONE, BUT I HAVE
TO HURRY, THE SHEEP'S BIRTHDAY
PARTY WILL BE STARTING SOON.

Pong says WE'RE READY. WE'VE
BEEN PRACTICING
THEIR BIRTHDAY SONG
FOR DAYS NOW.

Ping says WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR THE GUITAR,
SAXOPHONE, BASS, CLARINET;
IT'S GOING TO BE HUGE! I HAVE
A SAXOPHONE SOLO THAT WILL MAKE
YOU DANCE YOUR FEET OFF.

Pong says I'LL GET THE INSTRUMENTS
AND THEN, WE CAN SETUP
FOR THE PARTY!

Pong tries to open the door to his house and says PING, DO YOU HAVE MY KEY?

Ping says NO.

Pong says OH NO! I HOPE IT DIDN'T
FALL DURING OUR BIKE RIDE.

Ping says WHAT?
DOES THAT MEAN WE CAN'T
GET THE INSTRUMENTS?
WHAT ABOUT THE POOR SHEEP?
HOW CAN THEY HAVE A PARTY
WITH NO BIRTHDAY SONG?

Matilda says THAT WOULD NOT
BE COOL.

Pong says I'LL FIND IT.

Ping says I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU LOST
YOUR KEY, PONG.

Pong says I KNOW IT'S AROUND
HERE SOMEWHERE.
BUT WHERE?

They look for the key.

Ping spots a shiny object on the road. She gets closer and realizes it's a coin.

She says AH!
[ELECTRONIC SOUNDS]

Pong looks under the water in Mister Prickles' fountain.

Mister Prickles says AHEM!
[ELECTRONIC SOUNDS]

Trix06 taps Pong's shoulder.

Pong says OH!
SORRY, MR PRICKLES,
I WAS LOOKING FOR MY KEY.

Mister Prickles says WELL IT ISN'T
IN MY FOUNTAIN.
I CLEAN IT EVERY DAY.
DON'T BE LATE.
THE MUSIC IS SCHEDULED
TO START AT EXACTLY 2 O'CLOCK.

Pong says WE'LL BE THERE!

Ping says PONG! HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED
TO PLAY MUSIC WITHOUT
INSTRUMENTS?

Pong says I DON'T KNOW.
OKAY, LET'S THINK.
PARTY, NO MUSIC, DISASTER.
I KNOW! TRIX-06
ALWAYS HAS RECORDED
MUSIC. SHE CAN PLAY
THAT DURING THE PARTY.
SEE.
RIGHT, I FORGOT,
SHE ERASED EVERYTHING
YESTERDAY TO MAKE
MORE ROOM!
THERE IS NO MUSIC!

Ping says THIS IS HORRIBLE!

Ping spins and ends up buried in a hedge.

Trix-06 pulls her out.

Ping says THANKS, TRIX-06.

Ping pulls sticks off her head and starts making tapping sounds.

[TAPS]

Pong says HEY! PING?
LISTEN.

Ping says I CAN'T. I'M THINKING
ABOUT THE POOR SHEEP.

Pong says THAT SOUND YOU'RE MAKING.
IT'S LIKE A DRUM BEAT.

Ping says PONG?

Pong says PING, IF YOU'RE MAKING A SOUND
WITH THAT STICK, THEN WE CAN
MAKE SOUNDS WITH OTHER THINGS.

Ping says AND WE'LL BE ABLE TO PLAY MUSIC
FOR THE SHEEP'S PARTY AFTER ALL.
THIS ISN'T
A DISASTER!

Pong says DON'T WORRY,
TRIX-06, WE WON'T
BE LATE, LET'S
PING PONG OUT OF HERE!

Ping says WHAT MAKES A SOUND?
WHAT MAKES A SOUND?
AH-HA!

She pours some beans in a plastic bottle and starts shaking it.

[SHAKING SOUND]

Ping says THIS SOUNDS LIKE MARACAS.
OH!
[SHAKING SOUND]

Matilda says COOL MARACAS, PING!

Ping says I LOVE THE SHAKY
SHAKY SOUND!
I'LL MAKE
ANOTHER ONE.
[SHAKING SOUND]

Pong says HUH?

He taps a wooden box with a stick.

[TAPS]

He says NOW THAT'S A GREAT
DRUM BEAT!

He then hits the box with his hands and says BUT THIS IS AN EVEN
BETTER BONGO BEAT.

Matilda stirs her milk.

[SPOON TAPING CUP]

Trix-06 grabs hits a pot with two spoons.

[ELECTRONIC SOUNDS]

Matilda says COOL BEAT, TRIX!

Pong crumples paper from a trash can and says COOL, BUT NOT MUSICAL.
[THUMP]

He grabs two plastic bottles, bangs them together and says THAT'S MORE LIKE IT!

Ping moves Matilda's wind chime and says AH!

WE HAVE ENOUGH INSTRUMENTS
FOR OUR WHOLE BAND.

Pong says AND WE MADE THEM ALL!

Ping says THE PARTY'S STARTING!
WAIT FOR US!
[BAAA]

At the party, Mister Prickles says IT'S 2 O'CLOCK,
THE MUSIC MUST START NOW
OR THE WHOLE
SCHEDULE WILL BE OFF.

Ping says DON'T WORRY, WE HAVE A WHOLE
PERCUSSION BAND READY TO GO!
ATTENTION ALL BIRTHDAY SHEEP
AND GUESTS, ARE YOU READY
FOR A BIRTHDAY SONG?
[CHEERS]

Ping shakes the maracas and says LET'S DO THE CONGA LINE! AH!

Matilda shakes hers and says I CAN'T GET ENOUGH
OF THAT SHAKY SHAKY SOUND!

Trix-06 says CONGA!

Pong spots his key on Trix-06's back pocket and says OH! NOW I REMEMBER!
I DIDN'T WANT TO LOSE IT
SO I PUT IT IN TRIX'S POCKET!
I KNEW I PUT IT IN A SAFE PLACE!

Ping says MAYBE NEXT TIME, DON'T PUT
IT IN SUCH A SAFE PLACE.
SO, SHOULD WE GO GET
OUR REAL INSTRUMENTS, NOW?

Pong says NO, OUR HOME MADE INSTRUMENTS
ARE MORE FUN. READY PING?

Ping says OH, I'M READY, PONG!
EVERYBODY CONGA!

They sing a song that goes THIS IS YOUR BIRTHDAY SONG
SUNG TO YOU BY PING AND PONG
WE WANT YOU TO SING ALONG
TO THE PING AND PONG
BIRTHDAY SONG
WOO!
BIRTHDAY
BIRTHDAY
BIRTHDAY
BIRTHDAY
BIRTHDAY SONG

[APPLAUSE]

Music plays as the end credits roll.
