The Teletubbies do The Happy Dance before watching Matthew, James, and Mark feed their cows and calves and watch them grazing in the field. Tinky Winky, Dipsy and Laa-Laa eat Tubby Toast at the Tubby Table, and Po eats Tubby Toast in her bed. There are crumbs everywhere, so Noo-Noo tidies up. The Windmill starts spinning, and the Teletubbies watch The Animal Parade before the Magic Windmill stops spinning for Tubby Bye-Bye.
Featuring: Matthew, James and Mark Carnie
Plot (US Version)[]
In the Home Hill, Tinky Winky slides down on the pink slide, and he saw that somebody had spilt their Tubby Custard on the floor. Tinky Winky followed the footprints, over the hills, around the bush, and the place where Dipsy was sitting with the rabbits. Tinky Winky asked Dipsy if he spilt the Tubby Custard. Dipsy didn't spill the Tubby Custard. The footprints carried on. Tinky Winky and Dipsy followed the footprints over the hills to the place where Laa-Laa was dancing. Tinky Winky and Dipsy asked Laa-Laa if she spilt the Tubby Custard. Laa-Laa didn't spill the Tubby Custard. The footprints carried on. Tinky Winky, Dipsy and Laa-Laa followed the footprints over the hills, between the trees, across the path, and around the house. They went into the house and they were getting closer to the place where Po was fast asleep. Po spilt her Tubby Custard. The Magic Windmill started to spin outside and the Teletubbies then run out and watch Matthew, James and Mark feed their cows and calves and watch them grazing in the field. Meanwhile, Tinky Winky, Dipsy and Laa-Laa were eating their Tubby Toast at the table, while Po was eating Tubby Toast in bed. The Tubby Toast crumbs were all over the table and bed. Noo-Noo tidies up the crumbs and the Teletubbies give him a big hug. Then, they watch Matthew, James and Mark feed their cows and calves. Afterwards, the Teletubbies do the shortened version of The Walking Dance before Tubby Bye-Bye.
