The Busy World of Richard Scarry

Sergeant Murphy's got his hands full with runaway imaginations. // Couscous is the best detective in North Africa and he's on the trail of Pepe Le Gangster and his "dirty rats. // Father Cat takes Huckle and Lowly on their first fishing trip hoping it will be as magical as his own.

Huckle and Lowly buy a special cuckoo clock for Mother Cat. // Despite his talkative Irish forefathers, Patrick O'Swine can't utter a word. // The gang goes skating on Grouchy Mr. Gronkle's pond.

Huckle and Lowly experience the life of a firefighter when they 'join the force' for the day. // Manuel breaks his mother's cooking pot so he and his friend Pedro go to the market to buy a new one. // Rudolph Von Fluggel takes Lowly and Huckle in his hot air balloon.

Mr. Raccoon is bored with the same old thing everyday so he leaves Mr. Frumble in charge of his restaurant. // Mario wants a gondola so he can paddle romantic couples around Venice. // Hilda babysits for Pig Will and Pig Won't and she does her best to fill the day with fun, but Pig Won't just wants to sulk.

Huckle's off to do Mother Cat's shopping for the first time when he forgets the list. // The Police Chief gives urgent orders to Sneef and his assistant Sniff. // Huckle and Lowly camp in the backyard but after Kenny tells them a ghost story, they're sure they see a huge claw in the shadows.

Instead of picking up his pickle car at Mr. Fixit's, Mr. Frumble mistakenly drives off in a bulldozer. // Ernst wants to be with Heidi on the rescue patrol, but he isn't a very good climber. // Billy Dog, a new kid in school, has everyone scared because of his gruff manner.

Hilda's the new playground monitor but because of her strength she's afraid she might hurt one of the little kids. // Professor Dig makes a great discovery - an Egyptian mummy. // Huckle and Lowly search the beach for buried treasure, but all they dig up is junk.

Bananas offers to watch Turnip Goat's bananas while she unloads her truck. // Maria and Frederico want to throw a coin in the Trevi fountain for luck. // The traffic light Mr. Fixit 'fixed' causes a big pile up so he offers to repair all the cars.

After Sally, Lowly, and Huckle help Mother Cat make an apple pie, Lowly's yodeler hat is missing. // Hans loves plumbing but because he always comes home wet. // Hilda plays matchmaker for Bruno and Ms. Honey by planning a wonderful tea party.

When Huckle has to get his tonsils out, Lowly stays with him in the hospital. // Cucumber and her assistant Pickles are terrified of their new assignment - to get pictures of lions. // All the kids and Miss Honey go up river for a picnic.

Sergeant Murphy's got the day planned - a drive and a picnic in the country with his family. // Everyone knows chimney sweeps bring good luck, but it looks like Schmudge left his luck at home. // Hilda's going to babysit the kids on the Cat Family's vacation to the seaside.

Everybody's building boats for the big Busytown Regatta, and Mr. Frumble's all excited - he just loves boats. // Schtoompah and his friend Umpah dream of playing music in the town orchestra. // It's the first annual soap box derby and all the kids build marvelous racers - everyone except for Sally.
