Greetings, Earthling Part 1

Greetings, Earthling is the first episode of the first season of Blossom's Room.

Summary
A girl named Blossom receives a new toy for her birthday, and the other toys plan to make the new arrival feel welcome.

Story
One day, in a southern-style house in Bonnett Creek, Arkansas, a redheaded five-year-old girl named Blossom, who wore a red hair bow, a pink dress with a black stripe, white tights, and black Mary Jane shoes was playing with a brown plush monkey named Davy, named after late Monkees member Davy Jones. She was doing all kinds of things with him, such as dancing to music played on a Playskool Rockin' Robot named "Mike", driving him on a remote-controlled car, and even pretending to be a horse with him as her rider. They came to the banister of the house and Blossom put Davy on the banister.

"Come on, Davy," said Blossom.

Blossom raced down the stairs as Davy slid down it. When they reached the bottom, Blossom ran into the living room, where she and Davy spun around in a revolving reclining chair. When they finished, Blossom sat Davy in front of the recliner and used the lever that operated the recliner to catapult Davy into the air. Davy landed on the couch.

"Score," Blossom said.

Blossom then saw her adoptive older brother, Bo Duke, who was a blond twenty-year-old and wore a tan jacket over a light blue t-shirt, a brown belt with a silver buckle, jeans, and brown shoes. He was setting up a table in the dining room, which had a banner that said "Happy Birthday, Blossom!" written on it hanging over the entrance-way and several balloons taped to the walls.

"What do you think," asked Bo.

"It looks great, Bo," Blossom said excitedly.

"Okay, Birthday Girl," said Bo with a chuckle.

"We saw that at the store," said Blossom, "I asked you for it!"

"I hope I have enough places," said Bo.

Bo counted how many seats were at the table and found that there were six, including one for himself.

"Yeah," said Bo, "I think that's gonna be enough."

"Can we leave this up 'til school starts," asked Blossom.

"Well, sure," said Bo, "we can leave it up."

"Yeah," Blossom cheered.

"Now, go get ready," said Bo, "Your friends are gonna be here any minute."

"Okay," said Blossom.

Blossom went over to the couch and grabbed Davy.

"It's party time, Davy," Blossom said.

Blossom took Davy upstairs to her room and put him on her bed.

"See you later, Davy," Blossom said.

Blossom then closed the door and left. Unknown to her, Davy slowly came alive.

"Jumping jelly beans," said Davy, "the birthday party's today?"

Davy then turned to face the rest of Blossom's room.

"Okay, everybody," Davy said, "the coast is clear!"

One by one, the rest of Blossom's toys came out of their respective places. A plush of the Disney mascot Mickey Mouse opened a toy box out of the corner and climbed out, accompanied by a plush of Staley Da Bear, the mascot for the Chicago Bears football team.

"Boy," said Mickey, "am I glad to finally be out of there!"

"You said it, Mick," said Staley.

Back at the bed, Davy was talking to an action figure of the character Captain Rex from Star Wars: The Clone Wars, who was perched on the nightstand.

"Captain," said Davy, "have you seen Goggles?"

"Sir, no sir," said Rex.

"Okay," said Davy, "Thank you. At ease."

Davy then jumped off the bed.

"Hey, Goggles," Davy called.

At that moment, Goggles, a Swim To Me Puppy toy by Little Tikes, who wore a pair of blue transparent goggles, hence his name, and a red collar with a red tag, came out from under the bed, pushing a fully set up checkers game.

"Right here, Davy," said Goggles, "And I'm red this time."

"No, uh, Goggles," said Davy.

"Oh, well, okay," said Goggles, "you can be red if you want-"

"Not now, Goggles," said Davy, "I've got some bad news."

"Bad news," Goggles asked loudly.

"Shh," Davy shushed.

But all the other toys had heard Goggles and were looking at them suspiciously.

"Just gather everyone up for a staff meeting and be happy," said Davy.

"Got it," said Goggles in a not so happy-sounding tone.

"Be happy," said Davy.

Goggles then laughed as he scampered away.

"Staff meeting, everybody," said Davy, "Kasey, Pup, podium duties."

With that being said, Kasey The Kinderbot, an educational toy robot made by Fischer-Price, and a stuffed dog named Pup emerged from under the bed and immediately got to work assembling a podium from some Lincoln Logs and a plastic bucket used by Blossom for building sandcastles at the beach or in the sandbox at the local playground. Davy then spotted a small pad of paper lying in front of the dresser.

"Hey," said Davy, "who moved my doodle pad way over here?"

When Davy went to grab the pad, a plush of Spike the Dragon from My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic jumped down in front of Davy and pretended to roar as if to scare him. Davy, however, wasn't scared.

"How are you doing, Spike," asked Davy.

"Were you scared," asked Spike, "Tell me honestly."

"I was close to be being scared that time," said Davy.

"Well," said Spike, "I'm going for "fearsome" here, but I just don't feel it! I think I'm just coming off as "annoying"."

Soon, all the toys were assembled for the meeting Davy got into his position at the podium.

"Ahem," a voice said.

It was Mike, who was offering his microphone attachment to Davy.

"Oh, thanks, Mike," said Davy.

But when Davy took the microphone, there was a loud feedback.

"Whoa, whoa," said Davy, "Step back."

Mike took a total of 3 steps back, and to test whether the sound was clear, Davy blew into the microphone three times.

"Hello," said Davy, "Check. That better? Great! Everybody hear me?"

All the other toys responded with "Yes".

"Okay," said Davy, "First item today, uh, oh yeah. As we all know, Blossom's starting school next week, so we all need to prepare for Blossom not spending time with us all day Monday through Friday. Is that clear?"

All the toys nodded.

"Okay," said Davy, "Now, uh, oh yes! Tuesday Night's plastic corrosion awareness meeting was, I think, a big success and we wanna thank Tunnel Rat for putting that on for us. Thank you, Tunnel Rat!"

An action figure of Tunnel Rat from G.I. Joe: Renegades spoke up.

"You're welcome," said Tunnel Rat.

"Okay," said Davy, "oh, yes, uh, one minor note here, "Blossom's birthday party has been moved today". Next we have-"

But the other toys began clamoring.

"What do you mean the party's today," asked Spike, "her birthday's not 'til next week!"

"What's going on down there," asked Staley, who was perched on top of the bookshelf, "is Bo losing his marbles?"

"Well, obviously," said Davy, turning to face Staley, "he wanted to have the party before school started!"

Davy then turned back to the other toys.

"I'm not worried," said Davy, "you shouldn't be worried."

"Of course Davy isn't worried," said Mickey, "He's been Blossom's favorite since infanthood!"

"Hey, hey," said Goggles, "c'mon Mickey! If Davy says it's alright, well, darn it it's good enough for me. Davy's never steered us wrong before."

"Come on guys," said Davy, "Every Christmas and birthday we go through this."

"But what if Blossom gets another dragon," asked Spike, "A mean one? I just don't think I can take that kind of rejection!"

"Hey, listen," said Davy, "nobody's getting replaced! this is Blossom we're talking about.

Davy then jumped off the podium and started walking away from it.

"It doesn't matter how much we're played with," said Davy.

Davy then noticed that his voice was starting to trail off, so he motioned for Mike to come closer.

"What matters is that we're here for Blossom when she needs us," said Davy, "That's what we're made for, right?"

"Pardon me," said Staley, "I'd hate to break up the staff meeting but, they're here! Birthday guests at three o'clock!"

The other toys, mainly Spike, immediately started panicking.

"Stay calm, everyone," Davy ordered.

But the toys didn't hear him and met Staley by the window.

"Uh, meeting adjourned," said Davy.
