[man] Max and Ruby.
[woman] Ruby
and her little brother, Max.
[children] Max and Ruby!
[children giggling]
[Ruby reading]
Oh, look who's here,
my favorite grandchildren.
[both] Hi, Grandma.
You're just in time.
Our Thanksgiving dinner
is almost ready.
[Ruby] Grandma, look at all
these special things.
Well, Thanksgiving
is a very special day.
Because we're saying thank you
for all the wonderful things
we have, right, Grandma?
That's right, Ruby.
[Ruby gasps]
Is that what I think it is?
Yes, that's my
Thanksgiving stuffing.
What's in it?
All kinds of yummy things
like nuts and berries
and a few
secret ingredients.
Stuffing!
No, Max, you have to wait
until Thanksgiving dinner.
What can we do
to help, Grandma?
You're in charge
of setting the table
and putting out
the decorations.
I'll put out the decorations.
Here, Max,
you can start by putting
the forks on the table.
Now, which decorations
should I put out, first?
[gasps] Oh, the cornucopia,
that's my favorite.
Hmm, let's see
Where should you go?
This is a cornucopia, Max.
A cornucopia is also called
"a horn of plenty",
because it's filled with plenty
of delicious vegetables
and fruits.
Perfect.
Stuffing.
[Ruby] Max!
You can't eat stuffing now.
You have to wait for
Thanksgiving dinner.
Here, put these spoons
on the table.
Dried corn cobs.
Grandma has all
the best things.
Look, Max, dried corn cobs.
This isn't the kind
of corn you eat.
It's just for show.
You can tell because of all
the different colors.
Stuffing!
[Ruby gasps] Max.
What are you doing?
Stuffing.
The stuffing is for
Thanksgiving dinner, Max.
Here, put these big serving
spoons on the table.
What else should I put on
Grandma's table?
Gourds Perfect!
Look what I have, Max.
Do you know what this is?
It's a gourd.
Gourds are kind
of like squash,
but we're gonna use
these ones for decorations.
Look at this one, Max.
It looks a little like
a swan, doesn't it?
I'll put this one
near Grandma.
This one looks like
a beach ball.
I'll put it near you.
And this one looks like
a genie's lamp.
I'll put it near me.
We aren't just
thankful for food
at Thanksgiving,
we're thankful
for beautiful
things, too.
We have so much to be
thankful for.
Now, what's missing?
[gasps] I know just what we need
and I even know how to make it.
Stuffing!
[Ruby humming]
Max, what are you doing?
Stuffing!
I know you can't wait to eat
Grandma's stuffing, Max.
Of all the yummy things we're
thankful for, it's one of
the yummiest.
But, soon, we'll be ready to
sit down to dinner
and then you can have
as much as you like.
Would you like to help me make
the last decoration, Max?
Watch this, Max.
We learned how to do this
in Bunny Scouts.
You draw around
your hand like this,
then you put some red here
and draw an eye here,
and look, a turkey.
Thanksgiving decorations
aren't complete
without a turkey for
the table.
What do you think, Max?
Max?
Max!
Why are you at that bowl?
Stuffing.
Soon, Max.
The table is ready, Grandma.
Good. So is Thanksgiving dinner.
Oh, I can't wait to see how
you've decorated the table.
Oh, my, everything looks
so beautiful.
You did a wonderful job, Ruby,
and you, too, Max.
Now it's time to enjoy our
lovely Thanksgiving dinner.
Oh, that's funny.
I thought I made
more stuffing
than that.
Max, aren't you going to eat
Thanksgiving dinner and say
"Thank you" with us?
No, thank you.
Why not?
Stuffed.
-[Grandma] Oh!
-[Ruby] Max!
[Ruby reading]
[Ruby] Mary, Mary,
quite contrary,
how does your garden grow?
[Max mimicking airplane engine]
Careful you don't run
into my garden, Max.
You might hurt the flowers.
I think you should
play airplane
somewhere else.
[Max continues mimicking
airplane engine]
With silver bells
and cockle shells
Friend.
[frog croaks]
[Max giggling]
What are you laughing
at, Max?
Friend.
I don't see anyone.
Friend.
Oh, I see.
You mean "pretend" friend.
I had a pretend friend
when I was little.
Her name was Audrey.
Hello, Max's pretend friend.
Oh, excuse me.
Nice to meet you.
[giggles]
Friend! Friend!
Oh, how silly of me.
Of course,
your pretend friend
is over here.
Hello, I'm Max's
big sister, Ruby.
It's a pleasure
to meet you, too.
I like playing with
your pretend friend, Max.
[gasps]
I know! Let's have
a pretend tea party.
I'll ask my pretend friend
Audrey to come.
Would you like to join us for
a tea party, Audrey?
Great.
Audrey says she'd love to.
Come on.
Wait, pretend friends
first, Max.
After you, Audrey.
Friend.
Yes, Max, please let your
pretend friend in, too.
Audrey and I will get things
ready for the tea party.
Does your pretend friend
want a blue tea cup
or a yellow tea cup?
Friend.
Blue? That's good.
Audrey wants
the yellow one.
You can have the green one.
That leaves
the red one for me.
Ready to go
outside, everyone?
What's that, Audrey?
Audrey thinks we should
get a blanket
that we can spread out
on the grass
for our tea party.
We'll be back
in a minute.
[giggling] Friend!
You're right, Audrey,
This blanket is just perfect.
[gasps]
Max, what happened?
Friend.
Oh, your friend knocked
the tea cups over, did he?
Please ask him to play more
carefully next time, okay, Max?
Yes, Audrey,
boys will be boys.
Come on, Audrey, let's choose
a nice spot by the sandbox.
Come on, Max.
Friend!
[Ruby] Would you like one lump
or two in your tea?
Two?
Me, too.
There you are, Audrey.
Tea time, Max.
Here's one for you and one for
your pretend friend, Max.
Oh, isn't this a lovely
tea party?
Oh, my goodness,
you're right, Audrey.
We forgot cookies.
You play with your pretend
friend until Audrey
and I get back.
[giggling]
Friend!
[bell clanging]
[giggling]
[gasps]
Max, how did your fire truck
get there?
Friend.
Max, please
tell your friend
it's not polite to drive
a fire truck
through a picnic tea party.
What's that, Audrey?
I couldn't agree
with you more.
A nice centerpiece would add
just the right touch.
Let's get some flowers
from the garden.
Audrey says you should come,
too, so she can keep an
eye on you.
Friend?
Audrey, which flowers
would look best?
You like marigolds?
Me, too.
I planted lots right here.
Now where did I put my gloves?
That's funny, I had two just
a minute ago.
Max, how did that glove
get way over there?
Friend.
You can't keep blaming
your pretend friend for
everything, Max.
You know who really moved
my garden glove.
Friend.
Pretend friends aren't real,
they're made up.
Like I made up Audrey
and you made up
your pretend friend.
Pretend friends don't knock over
tea cups or drive fire trucks
through picnic tea parties.
And pretend friends don't
move garden gloves from
here to--

Thank you, Max.
Try again, Ruby.
It just takes
