(suspenseful music)
- I'm not judging anyone.
- Whoa! - Don't be jealous.
- We are upping the ante.
- Oh, no!
- Can we be on the floor?
- Oh, we are getting sweaty.
(playful music) - Hi, I'm Jonny.
- Hi. Natisha.
- Hey, I'm Billy.
- Today we're making balloon animals.
(Billy and Jonny whoop)
Can't wait. (Natisha laughs)
- I am here to slay.
So we're just gonna get started with a warm-up.
(suspenseful music)
Making balloon animals can be pretty challenging.
It's definitely one of those skills that
you're gonna wanna practice to get
a little bit better at it.
- It's fun.
It's actually very relaxing.
- I love it when there's twenty kids
who all want a big balloon that takes a lot of time
and they're impatient.
And the secret to great balloon animals
is Sharpies.
- Ha.
- And all you have to do is add a face,
and it will make your competitors look not as good as you,
because their dogs don't have little heads and faces.
- Sorry.
- Unless they have Sharpies,
at which point you're just competing against people
that are as good as you and it's not the same.
(suspenseful music)
(clown horn honking)
(playful music) (balloons squeaking)
- Does it have to look like a snail?
- God, let me make it look like
what I'm supposed to look like.
- Ah!
I have a snail with a really big head,
a really long neck.
- She is fabulous, ladies and jellies.
- Probably a little too long.
(voices squeaking rapidly)
- The clock is tickin'!
- The pressure is on.
Oh my goodness.
(Billy squeaks)
(balloons and voices squeaking rapidly)
(Natisha roars)
Yay! Mine popped and looks great.
- I might win!
(balloons and voices squeaking rapidly)
(suspenseful music)
(playful music) - My snail's name is Sam.
If I let it go, it'll fall apart.
- Here's my snail,
and this snail has a very long neck
'cause he likes looking for things.
And here are his antennas, that are feelin' real silly.
- And he's got a face.
- Yeah, he's got lovely eyelashes.
- Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
here is my snail.
- Fabulous.
- Whoa. - Don't be jealous.
He's got a cute little head over here
and then this exotic shell. - Ooh.
- I'm not going to say anything bad
about the snail over there, that has mumps,
but I think it's great.
(suspenseful music)
- A princess! - Ooh.
- Go!
(playful music) (voices squeaking rapidly)
(Natisha squeals)
- Oh darn.
My competitor's balloon popped.
How sad for her.
(balloons and voices squeaking rapidly)
- My princess is gonna have green hair
'cause she can do whatever she wants.
- The strategy going in to this competition
is to surprise the judges.
I'm gonna be showing them stuff
that they have never seen before.
- My strategy is to make a princess
who feels good about herself.
And sure, she's pretty, but she's also smart,
and funny and hardworking
and, you know, she goes after her goals.
(voices and balloons squeaking rapidly)
- My princess has green eyes
but what would really make her pretty
is ruby red lipstick.
- My princess is wearing a crop top
because she's a modern lady.
- I'm working on the face right now.
It's not really comin' out the exact way
that I had it pictured in my head,
but I think I'm gettin' close.
- Thirty seconds? Oh my God. - No! I don't like that.
(suspenseful music)
- So I think I might've misunderstood the assignment.
- Ooh! (playful music)
I thought you wanted me to be the princess,
so I whipped up the best princess crown
I could come up with,
and here she is.
- [Jonny] Success!
- I am ready to work the runway.
- [Jonny] Yeah.
I'm a princess. Yesssss.
- Yaaaaaas!
(Natisha cheers)
- You go, Princess Billy.
- Thank you, thank you.
- Princess crowns always work.
Of course, they're not the princess balloon,
but I'm not judging anyone
whose name rhymes with Billy.
(electric guitar rock music)
(upbeat music) - I have a princess
who has a side ponytail because the 80s are back.
She has a crop top,
lovely eyes
and, ooh, look, it's like she's talkin'.
And she has two arms
and she may not be wearing pants
so we don't need to see the rest of it.
- My princess can be like a puppet.
Watch.
Do you love me?
Yes I do.
Do you talk when my mouth moves?
Yes you do.
I love my blue dress, Jonny.
Thank you. Can I kiss you?
Sure. (lips smacking)
You're the best clown, Jonny.
Now don't be rude.
No, he's the best.
Vote for Jonny. (test pattern beeps)
- Yay Jonny. (hands clapping)
- [Off-Screen Crew Member] That is amazing.
- I think,
I think that you both won.
- Aww. - Ha.
(playful music)
(suspenseful music)
- Does our dinosaur eat people or just vegetation?
- He's a nice one. - Okay.
- I think he likes--
- People! He eats people.
- Oh. I was thinking kale.
(playful music) - Kale?
- Yeah. Leafy greens. Swiss chard.
- Yum.
How 'bout kale wrapped around a caveman?
Yay!
- Is kale good on anything though?
- All right, keep going kids.
We only have 60 more balloons to blow up,
and then we have to put it together.
If only there was a way to edit this down
to a section that looks small and short
and yet still adorably hilarious.
(voices and balloons squeaking rapidly)
- I have never made a balloon animal this big.
I mean, this is practically the same size as me.
(voices squeaking rapidly)
(air pops)
(Natisha gasps)
- Oh no. - [Jonny] Uh oh.
Oh my!
(balloon squeaking)
- Ooh, God.
I broke my pump.
- Uh oh.
- Actually Billy, you broke my pump.
- Aww. - Uh ohh.
- There ya go.
- I'm sorry. - That's okay.
It's only money.
(Billy and Natisha laugh)
(balloons squeaking) (playful music)
- Did I really break it?
- Don't worry about it.
- Oh no.
- That's what Amazon is for.
(balloons and voices squeaking rapidly)
- Ha, I'm sorry.
- Can we be on the floor?
- Oh, we are getting sweaty.
(voices and balloons squeaking rapidly)
- Look at the head of the dinosaur that's starting.
- Ooh. - Grr.
(voices and balloons squeaking rapidly)
Oh my.
(voices squeaking rapidly)
- Ha.
(balloon pops)
- Whoopsy. A pop-osaurus.
(balloons popping) Oh my goodness!
(balloon popping) Oh.
- Oh my, I'm gettin' a headache.
- The sound you hear are clown tears
falling on the cement floor of this sound stage.
(suspenseful music)
Ladies and gentlemen,
I present a ferocious dinosaur.
(all roaring and screaming) (playful music)
I don't want kale.
Grr, grr.
Oh, and he makes a ferocious sound.
(horn beeping)
There you go.
The famous, very very realistic,
historically accurate
triangle balloon tail.
(all cheering)
I think they've done a great job, don't you?
I'm sorry, did I hear from the crew a round of applause?
- Yay. (faint clapping)
- Stop, you guys.
(suspenseful music)
(playful music) I say perfection.
Your thoughts, kids?
- I think it's so adorable,
and it's to scale.
- The perfect dinosaur. (clown horn honking)
- This is the most delightful
torture that I've ever put myself through
and basically, need to go touch up my makeup.
- [Jonny] Yay!
- I feel real sweaty. - [Jonny] Yay!
- Real sweaty and proud.
Yeah.
- But on the bright side,
it's got macaroni horns.
(all cheering)
- And look at it on the side.
See how the rib cage is literally recreated
like it's the Natural History Museum?
And look at the belly,
and the tail.
Come on.
This is the cutest balloon dinosaur you've seen today.
Am I wrong? Am I wrong?
- You right. - Yeah.
- Right, right, right. - Thank you.
And look at the best part!
Its head floats in the air.
Ooh, Halloween.
Floating dinosaur.
(all screaming)
(triumphant brass music)
