Snow Day

**Snow Day** is an episode of *Jack's Big Music Show* and the first from season two. In this episode, a Hawaiian beach party is disrupted when Mel's sand-making machine malfunctions and starts making snow.

## Plot

Jack and the gang are setting up for a Hawaiian beach party! All they need is the following:

1. Hawaiian music
2. A pool to swim in
3. Decorations
	* Palm trees
	* Flamingos
	* Streamers
	* Balloons (at Sleezo's request)
	* Surfboards
4. Beach Balls
5. Sand

After they get everything they can get, all Mel needs to do is use a machine he built to make sand appear. Things seem to go well at first, but then the machine makes snow instead of sand, leaving Jack, Mary, and Sleezo worried as to what's coming. After a song by Laurie Berkener is over, we see that the snow has filled the entire clubhouse, and Sleezo has caught a severe cold. Earl the squirrel comes by for the beach party, only to be met with slipping around on his surfboard. Jack and Mary then try to use snow to stop the machine, and it works... for about 5 seconds. Jack then contemplates the amount of snow in the clubhouse, saying he's never seen "anything that looks ***LESS*** like a Hawaiian beach party". The Schwartzman Quartet then come by and sing their song.

After the song is over, Sleezo is given hot chocolate to help him warm up while the snow is still around, and a song by The Quiet 2 to cheer him up. After that's over, it is revealed that penguins have found their way into the clubhouse. After a bit of an argument between Jack and Mary, Mel finally fixes the sand machine and stops the snow, but there's one problem: there too much snow to put sand in the clubhouse. Suddenly, Prudence arrives for the beach party, only for her to be shocked at the amount of snow. After Jack explains what happened, Prudence tells the gang about an experience she had: it was all in Hawaii, but there was snow everywhere. So, she sang 7 magic words to get rid of the snow: "Wiki Wiki Hele Hele Snow Go Away." After the gang does the same, the snow starts melting, leaving room for the sand machine to make sand. As Mel reactivates the machine sand starts to appear, and everyone (even the penguins) start partying! Earl then comes by for a snow party, but then is angry when he sees that the snow has melted and leaves.
