Something Else

The trusty old umbrella is beginning to fall apart and they decide it’s time to purchase another. Unfortunately, the umbrellas in the Everything You Need Shoppe and at Nix´s umbrella farm aren’t quite ready. However, Something can’t wait - so he decides to grow one himself using his new Accelerater Potato Laser. Taking some seeds from Nix, Something succeeds in growing an umbrella within minutes. As Something and Something Else stand back to admire this scientific feat, the umbrella suddenly starts to get bigger and bigger, taking on enormous proportions. Elsewhere is plunged into darkness as the new umbrella gets so big that it blocks out the sun. How are they going to shrink the umbrella? Will Elsewhere ever see sunlight again?!

Domestic bliss is shattered when SE forgets about his chores and leaves Something waiting for his lunch. Something decides to create a schedule so that he will always get his meals on time. Unfortunately, Something Else's over-zealous nature means that he takes his scheduling and time saving to an extreme. Everything is done at breakneck speed and meals are soon restricted to one uni-meal in the middle of the night! What can Something do? Can he stop Something Else's manic scheduling? Will Something ever be able to rest for 5 minutes again?

Something and SE have become lazy, in fact, they haven't moved from their chairs for weeks. SE decides that they should go for a hike to the Rather Tall Hill to get some exercise. However, all their friends in Here and There warn them that the hill is inhabited by a terrible monster – named Ghastly George. To make matters worse, no-one has returned from a trip to the hill alive and able to tell their tale. Despite being scared, the two head off on their adventure to the Rather Tall Hill with SE leading the way. Will they encounter the monster? Will they return to Here and There to tell the tale?

Swift and Canny decide to take a well-earned break and leave the responsibility of babysitting the shop and Handful to our trusty heroes, SE and Something. Swift and Canny are especially concerned that their best customers, the Storkers, are not upset and that the shop is run efficiently in their absence. Surely it can't be that difficult to look after the Everything You Need Shoppe? Surely SE and Something can handle Handful? However, with a fateful combination of light bulbs, a trampoline, an infinitely extendible fishing rod and Handful; things don't go quite as planned!

It's Tuesday morning and Something is tinkering with his new invention, the Bubble Flying Machine. Meanwhile, upstairs in the kitchen, SE is making his Unusually Crunchy Muffins (as he does every Tuesday). Unfortunately, SE has run out of rockberries, an essential ingredient for the muffins; even the local store is fresh out. SE rallies the troops for a hike to the top of Berry High Mountain to gather fresh rockberries and Something decides to try out his new flying machine. Something reaches the top first, finds the berries and pops a few in his mouth – just to make sure they are ripe of course! But they're not rock berries, they're icicle berries and Something instantly turns into a big block of ice! How are they going to thaw Something? More importantly, will SE manage to bake Tuesday's Unusually Crunchy Muffins?!

With the wind blustering outside, SE decides that this would be a perfect opportunity to test Something’s new kite, his ‘Fly me to the moon’ kite. Unfortunately, with a few more alterations to make, Something’s new kite isn’t ready in time and the wind dies down before they’ve had a chance to test it. Dejected, SE sits in a chair and hears a funny squelching noise. At the same time, Something is searching for his tube of ‘Forever Glue’. SE tries to move from the chair and can’t – he has sat on the tube of glue and is now stuck to the chair forever! As the residents of Here and There try to help SE get out of the chair, they too get stuck to it! Will they ever get out of the chair? Surely there’s antidote…?
