Hippity Hop

"Hippity Hop" is the 7th episode of The Fresh Beat Band.
== Summary ==
The Fresh Beats come out of their apartment to start the perfect Fresh Beats day. All of a sudden, Twist starts to smell carrots, but is unaware of where the aroma is coming from. The Fresh Beats eventually head over to The Groovy Smoothie, where Melody pulls out a bucket of carrots, revealing that's where the carrot-like aroma came from. Melody then revealed that she was using those carrots to add a new drink to The Groovy Smoothie menu: carrot juicies. Melody gave the Fresh Beats a taste test of the carrot juicies, and once they drank it, they had carrot juicy mustaches!
Kiki said to Melody that she should have a dance party at The Groovy Smoothie in order to promote her carrot juicies. Twist, Shout, Marina, and Melody all agree that it's a good idea. At the party, Melody can make the carrot cake, Shout can decorate The Groovy Smoothie, Twist can blow up balloons, and Kiki can come up with a dance for them to do, but Marina is unsure of what she can do for the party. Melody tells Marina that she can sing a song and help her hand out carrot juicies. She even said that Marina can dress up in a costume while she sings the song. Before the Fresh Beats get ready for the party, they sing and dance to the song "Let's Dance Everyone."
After the Fresh Beats sang the song, Marina shows the viewer the dress she wants to wear for the party. In fact, it's her favorite dress. Melody comes over to the Fresh Beats' apartment and shows Marina a bunny costume that she wants her to wear at the party. After Melody gave Marina the costume, she left, and then Marina tried it on. As cute as the bunny costume was, Marina was hoping to wear her favorite dress to the party. Marina still needed to sing a song for the party, so Twist gave her a short sample of lyrics for her to sing, and all the Fresh Beats thought those were cool lyrics. The Fresh Beats were about to practice their dance moves, but because of Marina's bunny costume, it caused her to fall over, bump into the Fresh Beats, and she even accidentally bumped Kiki into a trash can. Because the bunny costume is hard to dance in, it starts to make Marina go bananas! So the Fresh Beats aptly sing the song "Bananas."
After going bananas, Marina felt better, but she still wished that she had worn her favorite dress to the party. So Twist had an idea to get a dress-making machine to add stuff to the bunny costume so it could look more like Marina's dress. While it was a cool idea, Marina said that she could just wear her favorite dress over her bunny costume. Twist, Kiki, and Shout helped Marina get the dress on her, but it only made it harder for her to dance, and she ended up falling on the floor. In an effort to try to cheer Marina up, Twist tried giving her carrots, but she wasn't very hungry at the moment, especially for carrots. Since Marina can't dance in the bunny costume, Shout decided that Marina could sing the song while Twist, Kiki, and Shout dance.
Since it's almost party time, the Fresh Beats go over to The Groovy Smoothie to decorate the place, and Melody says that it looks very groovy. Marina saw the carrot cake Melody made and then she tripped, almost dropping the cake, which made it go to Kiki, then to Twist, then Shout, and Shout successfully put the cake down without ruining it. The guests for the party have started to arrive, meaning that it's almost time for Marina to sing and for Twist, Kiki, and Shout to dance. Kiki didn't want to dance and sing without Marina, so Shout had an idea for them to dance and sing with her. So Twist, Kiki, and Shout tiptoe away to execute Shout's idea.
The party was about to start, but Twist, Kiki, and Shout weren't back yet, and Marina didn't want to sing without her friends there. They eventually do come dressed up in animal costumes. Twist was in a kangaroo costume, Kiki was in a monkey costume, and Shout was dressed like a penguin. Marina decides that it would be a more awesome idea if they sang and danced at the party together. The only problem was that they still needed to figure out how to dance in those costumes. Twist accidentally knocks the others over with his kangaroo tail, and it gives Marina an idea to do an animal dance together. So as they are dancing, they sing the song "Hippity-Hip-Hip Hop."
The song ends and everyone enjoyed their performance, especially Melody, who really loved the lyrics to their song. And everyone seemed to like Melody's carrot juicies as well. When the Junior Beats drank her smoothie, they had carrot juicy mustaches. After the party ended, the Fresh Beats helped Melody clean up the place. And the Fresh Beats all agree that it was an awesome idea to dance like an animal. Marina said that there was still one thing missing... carrots. Twist coincidentally had carrots stuffed in his back pocket, and Marina ate them, saying that it was a great day.
