**Why Powerpuff Girls Can't Fly** is the seventh episode of the first season.

## Plot

Blossom says hello to the viewers and takes them inside. She suddenly smells something. She says that we smell so fresh today, and we must feel really good too. Mario and Luigi suddenly appear saying hello to Blossom in a flash. They ask what Blossom is doing, and ask if she is sniffing again. They bet he is. Blossom says yes. Then she asks what they are doing. They wanted to play catch. She says OK, it sounds like a lot of fun. Then she asks the viewers if they want to play catch with them. Blossom was wondering where they should play catch. Mario and Luigi requested the Pond. They say "see you there, Blossom!" She tries to look for a ball, so she heads to the living room.

At the living room, Blossom finds Bubbles and Buttercup are pretending to fly. She was so curious. She asks Bubbles about what she is doing. She says that she is up, way up! She is still curious. She asks the viewers if they know what she meant. She says that she and Buttercup are flapping their arms, and zooming around in the room. She found out what they are doing. They are pretending to fly! Bubbles says that she is a bird, she is a plane. Buttercup says she is a bird too, and a rocket. Blossom asks if they are birds and planes and rocket ships. They say no. Sometimes they are birds, planes, and even rocket ships. They can fly wherever they want, off into the wild blue yonder. Buttercup says also Buttercup Island, with trees. Bubbles says to look at Blossom. She says that he is in the air! They wanted him to flap her arms and fly. Blossom didn't realize he was in the air too. Blossom wanted us to flap our arms and fly. We can be a bird, a plane, or a rocketship. Birds can fly slow or really fast! And we can fly anywhere we want, because it's just pretend. It is fun to fly like a bird, isn't it? They can just see it now, flying with the clouds all around us, white and fluffy. Bubbles tells Buttercup that the clouds. Blossom also says birds are flying with us too. Those were ducks flying. And we can fly, way up into outer space with the stars and planets all around us! Bubbles says we can visit any planet we want. She and Buttercup leave the living room and say bye. Blossom asks where they are going. She and Buttercup say upstairs to outer space, and the final frontier. Blossom reminds them to stay warm, it can be cold in outer space. That Bubbles has some imagination. He thinks it's time for a pretend landing.

It is fun to pretend to fly. He is so curious. Blossom starts thinking about gravity, which is the main topic of the day. Have we ever wondered why we can't fly for real? It is all because of Gravity! It is what makes us stay on the ground. You can't see it, but it is there. Then, Blossom sings about it. We are sure glad we have gravity, but sometimes it can be a problem. Like falling down, he asks if we have ever fell down before, because that's the problem with gravity, and gravity makes things fall. Like, when you are running, and you stumble and fall. You could also get hurt. She asks what do we think, have we ever fallen down? First kid says that he has fallen down many times. Second kid says things fall because there is no balance. The third kid says she would have to balance on her bike. And it could go much faster. The fourth kid says he was riding too fast, and then he fell down. The fifth kid says when you're learning something new, you fall down. The sixth kid says Gravity holds you down to Earth. The seventh kid says that stuff that holds you down so you don't go flying up in the air. The eighth kid says that airplanes go straight up, but helicopters go a 90 degree up. The ninth kid says that it's like you go down really fast. The tenth kid says that she wished could jump on the clouds with her mother. The next eleventh kid says that it just happens like you're a bird. Blossom says that you know a lot about gravity and falling down. She must've admit that he has fallen too. Once, she was crossing on a log to get to the other side of the river and he fell in. Good thing Powerpuff Girls love water. Speaking of which, she almost forgot he has a to play catch with Mario and Luigi.

Blossom heads to the kitchen when he sees Thomas with some eggs. Blossom wonders what he is up to. Thomas just got eggs to make omelets. He just needs to get them into his engine shed to make them. He likes bacon, egg, sausage, ham and cheese omelets, and so do all of his friends. Blossom wanted to help, but Thomas didn't need any help. A steam engine has to do things for himself. She has a plan. What Thomas has to do is that he has a spoon and it is underneath an egg, and take it into the engine shed. Blossom thinks it's not a good idea, because Gravity could break it. Thomas had everything under control. So, he throws the first egg up in the air causing the first one to break. That was what Blossom was trying to say, they can break. Thomas had thought of all the things he can do, but they weren't easy. Blossom says that eggs are round, and can roll. Thomas just had a great idea, he can roll them into his engine shed. That Thomas, he is a good thinker. He was this cheese grater and he has one end to get them into the shed, and the other end on the egg carton. It is a ramp! It is like gravity, it falls, but slowly, and is much safer. Thomas tests it out, and it worked! Thomas says thank you to Blossom.

Blossom hears a noise from upstairs. It was Bubbles! He goes up to see what was the matter and finds Bubbles crying. Buttercup says that she fell. She was crying and tearfully said that she really wanted to fly for real, so she tried, but she can't. There was something that she wanted to tell her. Girls can't fly, not even if they really want to. Powerpuff Girls and children are not like birds. Birds have special wings to fly. When Powerpuff Girls and children jump from high places, we fall. And when you fall from a high place, you can get hurt. She notes that they can bounce.

Blossom has to go to Mario and Luigi's Mushroom Houses to play catch, but suddenly she just remember that we haven't seen Amy Rose today. She looks for her and has found her in a matter of seconds. Amy appears saying hey and says that her hairbow is showing, which she's always are. Blossom asks her if she has a story for us. In the Amy Rose segment, Amy tells the story of Humpty Dumpty.

After the Amy Rose segment, Blossom heads to the mushroom houses for a game a catch with Mario and Luigi. They wanted to go first, so Blossom had Mario to go first, and Luigi next. So they started and played the game. They wanted him to throw it again, so he throws it again. They both caught the ball!

Later, Blossom leaves and says bye to the otters. Those two plumbers, they sure love to play catch don't they? She was curious, did you have fun today? Because she sure did. Then she decides to go and visit Jenny Wakeman and tell her all about our day.

Blossom goes up to the attic saying "Ah, the attic." Blossom asks the viewers that isn't it great. She notes that he sometimes just likes to come up here and look up at the sky seeing the stars. it is also when she comes to talk to a special friend. He decides to go find Jenny.

At the balcony, Blossom finds Jenny looking at us while rising. They say hello. She said it is nice seeing him. She said she was getting ready to glow across the night sky. Blossom said it was a really good day. He said that Bubbles and Buttercup pretended to fly. She asked her that they didn't come for a visit. She said that they wanted to, but it was just pretend. She reminds her that Powerpuff Girls can't fly. She noticed that. Birds, planes, and rockets can fly, but they all have to come back to Earth sometime, that's because of Gravity. They both laugh. She said "that's right." She mentions that gravity is also important to her too. She asks why. She said that the Earth and her are always going around each other, and gravity keeps them together. he said "wow." She asks about her good friend Thomas. He said that Thomas the Tank Engine was trying to slide some eggs into his engine shed to make breakfast omelets. She is sure that it was bacon, egg, sausage, ham and cheese omelets. She asked her that didn't she see him and Mario and Luigi down by the Mushroom Houses. She says that she can see a lot of up there. She said that they were playing an old fashioned game of catch. The plumbers Mario and Luigi were pretty good at it too. She thinks that everyone had a good time at the big blue house today. She agrees. She said it's time for her to go back up into the sky and make the tides ebb and flow. She asks to sing a goodbye song before she goes. They sing the goodbye song. Blossom tells us that he hopes all of your ups and downs are safe and fun. He says bye and turns the light off.
