Summary[]
Everyone in Wuzzleburg comes to the annual lighting of the figgity fig tree, and this time Widget is doing the decorating! But when Wubbzy tries to add to the display, Widget's generator breaks down leaving no electricity to prepare the light fixtures. Wubbzy and his friends must find a way to save the lighting ceremony.
Recap[]
Wubbzy shows the audience what all his friends are doing to get in the spirit of the holidays. Huggy, Buggy and Earl are planning a winter festival. However, when Earl slides on the ice, he crashes into six Birdy Birds that were figure skating together. Chef Fritz is cooking holiday treats, including Wubbzy's favorite jelly-bell cake. Madame Zabinga and three mice are rehearsing the ballet special, "The Nutty Nutcracker". Two Whirley Squirrels are exchanging nuts, while two Wuzzly Bears are painting decorations. A speckled flying frog is leading three others in singing a holiday tune, and glowflies are flying synchronously, making holiday shapes (such as a candy cane and a tree). Wubbzy also spots a horse-drawn sleigh going down the street. He then throws a coin into the pot by a bell-ringing Santa on the street.
Wubbzy meets Walden and Widget at the great figgity fig tree. Walden tells them about the blue snow that usually falls after the lighting of the figgity fig tree. This year, Widget is in charge of lighting the tree. She strings up some lights and then uses her Light-O' Rama 3000 to turn on the fixtures. The three friends pause to admire it, but then Wubbzy says that it needs more lights. Despite Walden mentioning that it looked good enough, Wubbzy goes home to get more lights to put on the tree. He takes strings of lights down from the inside of his nicely-decorated home. When he pulls the lights off of his Christmas tree, the branches spin around and they all fall off.
Wubbzy returns with the lights shortly before the tree-lighting ceremony is about to begin. Widget pulls out her Tree Trimmer 3000 to quickly put them up. Once lit, the added lights give the added brightness Wubbzy wanted, but it quickly shorts out Widget's Light-O'Rama 3000, leaving them with no power for the lights at all. Everyone in Wuzzleburg shows up a few seconds later, but there is no time for the three to power the lights back on. A resigned Wubbzy takes the stand and announces there won't be a tree lighting this year, while blaming himself for letting this unfortunate event occur.
Wubbzy feels awful for being the cause of the ruined celebration. However, Widget and Walden brighten his spirits by explaining that lights aren't necessary when you can use decorations. They start to decorate the tree, but they then realize that it's going to take them a lot more decorations to decorate the whole tree. At that moment, all the other people in Wuzzleburg (including a blue dinosaur and three Snow Shoo Shoos) show up with decorations and help decorate the entire figgity fig tree. Huggy, Buggy and Earl use slingshots to launch decorations onto the tree, but Earl has to explain to them that "bananas make great tree ornaments!" because he was launching bananas.
Once it is completely decorated, Walden communicates with a glowfly. Many other glowflies then fly on the tree to light it up.
Common Elements[]
"No Problemo"[]
Widget says this after Wubbzy states that they need to put up the extra lights fast. She then pulls out her Tree Trimmer 3000.
"That wasn't supposed to happen"[]
Widget says this after her generator blows and stops working.
Widget's Invention(s)[]
Widget unveils her Light-O'Rama 3000 right after finishing decorating the figgity fig tree with lights. It is a generator that powers all the lights on the figgity fig tree. However, it was not designed to power the extra lights that Wubbzy brings.
Widget takes out her Tree Trimmer 3000 after Wubbzy returns from getting more lights from his house. It looks like a shoulder-fired rocket launcher, and shoots the new strings of lights onto the figgity fig tree.
Post-Show Skit[]
The short, "Snowman" is played.
