waxing the dance floor yet?
FURGUS: Nearly, my love.
Phew.
Oh, there it is-- the shiniest dance floor ever.
FUNELLA: Oh, Furgus, you have such a marvel of efficiency.
[LAUGHTER]

Oh!
RABBIT: Whoa!
FUNELLA: Oh, I'm so-- I'm so sorry.
Are you all right?
DOG: Miss Furchester, there's a problem.
We can't possibly dance on that floor.
RABBIT: That's right.
It's too slippery.
FUNELLA: Oh.
DOG: We shall have to take our ballroom dance
weekend elsewhere.
FUNELLA: What?
RABBIT: There must be another hotel
nearby with a non-slippery dance floor.
FUNELLA: Oh, perish the thought.
This is just a minor glitch.
Uh, we can solve this problem.
Can't we, dear?
FURGUS: Of course!
Oh, let me think.
How can we make the floor less slippery?
Ah!
PHOEBE: Let's get some towels.
Maybe we can wipe off this wax.
ELMO: Good idea.
Whoa!
[HUMMING]
COOKIE MONSTER: Whoa!
[GROAN]
[GASP]
Oh, no.
Me spilled the honey me taking up to Mr. Berlitz.
Now floor all sticky.
[GASP]
FURGUS: Oh, that's it!
Honey!
FUNELLA: Yes, dear?
FURGUS: No, no, not you, honey.
I mean, honey honey.
It's sticky.
It makes things less slippery.
Cookie Monster, could you please bring us some more honey?
COOKIE MONSTER: More honey coming right up.
Whoa!
Oh, and more for Mr. Berlitz, too.
FUNELLA: Oh, isn't my husband clever?
He will have our slippery dance floor problem
solved in no time at all.
COOKIE MONSTER: Ah, ha, ha.
Whoa!
Oh!
Uh oh.
Honey all over the floor now.
FURGUS: Perfect.
That means that the floor's ready for dancing.
[LAUGHTER]
Oh, gosh.
Oh, shall we try it out, my sweet?
FUNELLA: Absolutely.
FURGUS: Hit it, Frankie.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[CHATTER]
FUNELLA: I do believe we're in a jam.
FURGUS: No, dear, we're in honey.
We're stuck.
PHOEBE: You're stuck to the floor, Dad.
RABBIT: So are we.
DOG: We simply must go somewhere else, dear.
RABBIT: How?
We can't even move.
[SIGH]
FURGUS: All right.
Nobody panic.
Let's put our furry heads together.
[GROAN]
Oh, no.
FUNELLA: We can't put our furry heads together
when we're stuck.
PHOEBE: Don't worry, Mum.
Elmo and I will put our furry heads together and think.
ELMO: Oh, yeah, OK.
Um.
PHOEBE: Let me think.
ELMO: How about--
PHOEBE: Fuzza wubba.
That gives me a monster idea.
ELMO: Yeah?
PHOEBE: We can wash the floor.
ELMO: Ah.
PHOEBE: Let's go and ask Cookie Monster for a mop.
[LAUGHTER]
ELMO: OK.
[GROANS]
PHOEBE: Help is here!
Are you sure this is going to work, Cookie Monster?
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh, yeah, this going to be terrific.
Yeah, hose much better than mop.
Trust me.
Me use it all the time to wash off sticky cookie crumbs.
PHOEBE: Ah.
COOKIE MONSTER: Yo, Elmo!
ELMO: What's up?
COOKIE MONSTER: Turn on water.
ELMO: OK.
[GASP]
COOKIE MONSTER: Whoa!
Whoa!
ELMO: Whoa!
COOKIE MONSTER: Mm.

[MUSIC PLAYING]
PHOEBE: What if we just dry the floor with the towels?
ELMO: Oh, yeah, Elmo and Phoebe have lots of towels.
PHOEBE: Yeah.
FUNELLA: I'm afraid the floor's too wet.
[GASP]
Even towels won't be enough to dry it.
Furgus!
Get the fan.
[LAUGHTER]
FURGUS: Right, the fan.
FUNELLA: Oh!
[SPLASH]
FURGUS: Right, fan, do your thing.
