Season 1, Episode 1

**Batter Up!** is the first episode of the *Lalaloopsy™ TV Series*.

## Plot

A record for the biggest stack of pancakes wants to be set, but it eventually becomes too hard for the Lalaloopsies. Will they be able to do it before the record won't be broken?

## Summary

Bea Spells-a-Lot is counting the amount of blueberries Berry Jars 'N' Jam is putting in a pancake. Once the count reaches two-hundred berries, Spells-a-Lot tells Berry that she broke the record for the most blueberries in a pancake, then suggests that she should break the record for the tallest stack of pancakes, which is three hundred seventy-five feet and two inches. Berry is convinced that this won't be a problem but she doesn't actually know how tall this is, so they go outside and Spells-a-Lot shows her.

While she does, Jewel Sparkles, Crumbs Sugar Cookie, and Peanut Big Top come by and invite Berry and Spells-a-Lot to their picnic. Berry refuses and explains that she has decided to attempt breaking a new record. By then, the owl has reached the target height and Spells-a-Lot presses a button on the tape measure to get him to stop. The owl then marks it by tying it around a really tall branch and flies back down.

Despite the intimidating height, Berry is very confident and she refuses any help from the others when they offer, saying that she's sure she can do it on her own. Even after Crumbs points out that it would be a lot of work for just one person. With this being said, Crumbs, Jewel, and Peanut take their leave as they wish her luck.

Spells-a-Lot says the pancake stack was built in a day, so Berry has to finish hers. Berry and Spells-a-Lot rush into the kitchen to start. As Berry makes sure she has all the ingredients, she spots a mouse and tells it to leave before mixing all of the ingredients.

At the picnic, Jewel says that the forks need to be to the left and the cups to the right. To fix them, Peanut juggles the plates, cups, and forks until properly placed. Crumbs notices the mouse is gone and shows confusing, saying that Mouse would never miss a picnic. They are joined by a beaver and Forest, with has a wagon of barrels with him. Jewel asks of the contents, but he shows the others that he is using them to collect syrup. Crumbs asks if he knows where the mouse is, but he does not, but if he sees him, he will send him in their direction.
