Goodbye, Grandma

Goodbye, Grandma is an episode of Little Clowns of Happytown.

## Synopsis

The Little Clowns are at Mr. Pickleherring's house putting together a Clowny Cookbook to raise money for the hospital. They're visited by Hiccup and Blooper's Grandma Rosy Bud, who has made some of her special candy. Before Hiccup and Blooper leave with her, the other clowns ask if they will be able to have fun with her too. Grandma Rosy Bud tells them she can't really promise that because she's been tired lately. Awful Bebad witnesses the fun and comes up with a way to gloom the Clowny Cookbook. Hiccup and Blooper are at Grandma Rosy Bud's house enjoying all of the treasures in her attic. When Blooper tries to test out her cannon and breaks a vase, she tells him not to feel ashamed because he is more important to her than an object. She shows another sign of being tired and says she isn't as young as she used to be. Hiccup wonders if she should call the doctor, but Grandma Rosy Bud tells her she just needs to rest and they go to a movie. Afterward, the three of them say goodbye and the kids go home. The next day, Hiccup and Blooper learn that Grandma Rosy Bud passed away from heart failure. They are sad that they will never see her again and have a hard time dealing with it. When Hiccup and Blooper come back to school, Pranky gives Hiccup flowers and Tickles gives them cookies. Big Top wonders if it's okay to talk to them about their grandmother, and Mr. Pickleherring says only if Hiccup and Blooper want to because it will take time for them to not feel so sad. Tickles wonders if there is anything they can do to cheer them up, and Mr. Pickleherring assures the Little Clowns that they will make them feel better. Whiner is heartbroken by the news, and when Geek comes in with ice cream he tells him that Hiccup and Blooper's grandmother died. Geek feels sorry for Blooper and wonders if he's okay. Bebad orders Geek and Whiner to gloom the Clowny Cookbook. At Clown School, the Little Clowns work on the Clowny Cookbook but Hiccup and Blooper aren't happy. Big Top tries to cheer Blooper up with a joke, but Blooper gets mad at him and he and Hiccup leave. Big Top, Tickles, and Pranky are worried, but Mr. Pickleherring explains that although it is normal for Hiccup and Blooper to feel this way, he knows someone who can help them feel better. Bebad, Geek, and Whiner break into Clown School and Bebad destroys everything. Geek tries to figure out a way to help Blooper and makes Whiner cover for him. Whiner tells Bebad that Geek went home to get some Gloom Goop, which makes Bebad happy. Hiccup puts flowers on Grandma Rosy Bud's grave and Blooper throws rocks in the pond. Big Top, Tickles, Pranky, and Badum-Bump wonder where they are and Tickles says they will be able to find them thanks to her latest invention. They find Hiccup at the cemetery but Badum-Bump gets word from the ducks that Blooper went somewhere else. Big Top thinks he went to school while Geek believes Blooper went to the railroad tracks. Hiccup tells Tickles and Pranky that she blames herself for Grandma Rosy Bud's death and they tell her that's not true. They try to convince her to come back to school with them, but she doesn't think it will help. At the railroad tracks, Blooper is looking at a photograph of Grandma Rosy Bud and is mad at her for leaving him. He gets so upset that he tears up the picture. Geek finds him and tells him he understands how he feels because he felt the same way when his grandmother died. He says Mr. Pickleherring will help him feel better and takes him back to school. The other Clowns and Mr. Pickleherring return to Clown School and find it a mess, but Mr. Pickleherring fixes it up with his magic. Dr. Babblecousin arrives wondering where Blooper is, and when Big Top tells him they couldn't find him, he shows up with Geek. Hiccup and Blooper don't want any help, and Dr. Babblecousin explains to them that there are a lot of different ways to deal with death. He helps them understand that Grandma Rosy Bud was old and they had no control over her death. He suggests that they think about the happy times they had with her. Mr. Pickleherring tells them that they will never forget her because she is alive in their hearts. Hiccup and Blooper help finish the Clowny Cookbook and dedicate it to her while Pranky thinks of a surprise for Bebad. Blooper leaves Bebad a box of Grandma Rosy Bud's exploding taffy and gives Geek a copy of the cookbook to thank him for being a good friend.

**Big Top:** Hey, Blooper, if you see an egg going down the Clown City River, where did it come from?

**Blooper** (annoyed): I don't know.

**Big Top:** From a chicken, where else?

(Big Top laughs, and Blooper's had enough as he pushes Big Top and smacks him, and the eggs smash on the floor and Big Top is surprised)

**Blooper:** Stop that! I was trying to count those! See what you made me do?!
