## Plot

Lumpy a real estate agent tells The Little Girl Skunk he wants a 1960's style house to be on the market. The problem is that there is no 1960's style houses in Happy Tree Town. The Little Girl Skunk comes up with an idea and gets a green tambourine and gets Petunia, Giggles, The Other Giggles, Sheega, Cuddles, Toothy, Handy & Bolt together and Vergie tells them the plan. The Little Girl Skunk explains that they need money for the supplies. The Little Girl Skunk plays the tambourine and Cuddles, Giggles, The Other Giggles, Petunia, Handy, Bolt Toothy & Sheega dance and one Generic Tree Friend gives The Little Girl Skunk some cash. Vergie says the plan is working.

Soon, the group starts dancing even more and they get even more cash from more Generic Tree Friends walking by. Later they have enough to build the house. Since Handy has no hands, Bolt helps him lay down the foundation for the house. The Little Girl Skunk plays her tambourine to get the group working. Petunia puts on a hazmat suit to keep her protected from dirt and germs. Vergie measures the foundation and starts working on the basement. Petunia saws some things. Sheega flies in the air and puts some fiberglass roofing shingles on the roof that Handy and Bolt put up. Cuddles and Toothy put some insulation in the walls. Giggles and The Other Giggles set up the flooring. Petunia and Sheega paint the house and The Other Giggles gives in the interior a 1960's appearance.

Lumpy comes by and sees the house. They did a great job and Lumpy puts it on the market. Days later, a Generic Tree Friend buys the house, ending the episode.

## Lyrics

Drop your silver in my tambourine

Help a poor man build a pretty dream

Give me pennies, I'll take anything

Now listen while I play

My green tambourine

Watch the jingle jangle start to shine

Reflections of the music that is mine

When you toss a coin, you'll hear it sing

Now listen while I play

My green tambourine

Drop a dime before I walk away

Any song you want, I'll gladly play

Money feeds my music machine

Now listen while I play

My green tambourine

Listen and I'll play

## Goofs

* When Giggles & The Other Giggles are dancing, Giggles' head marking is on The Other Giggles for 1 split second.

## Trivia

* The song is performed by The Lemon Pipers which was released in 1967. This the 1st episode to have a song recorded from the 1960's in HTF Spirit of The 60's.
* The Little Girl Skunk does not soil her diaper or have anything happen to it in this episode.
	+ Vergie walks besides The Little Girl Skunk in this episode even though her diaper is clean.

* The lyrics state a "help a poor man build a pretty dream" and Lumpy is the poor man who wants a dream of selling the house. It gets sold to a Generic Tree Friend hippie.
* The group dancing and building the house make up most of the episode's duration.
* The insulation and roofing shingles are Owens Corning and the power tools used are Porter-Cable Power Tools. Their logos are dead giveaways.
