When Floyd finally woke up from his knockout Dr. Teeth asked him,
"Are you allright uhh.."
"Floyd Pepper sir. I'm your biggest fan!"
"Uh okay Floyd. How's your head."
"Full of questions for you. Like: Why'd you walk off that stage in Tokyo? Where you been? And where your mama liv.."
"Whoa whoa man. Clifford told me you were cool so.."
"Clifford. You told him I was cool?"
"You were on my floor so long, I thought you were dead. It's what I say at funerals."
"Dr. Teeth Why did you walk off thet stage earlier?"
"Floyd I realized that I ought to go back to my roots and stay for a while."Dr. Teeth then turned around walking to leave until Floyd asked,
"What? In this boring old place?" Dr. Teeth quickly turned around and exclaimed,
"Boring?! Boy this place was where I hung out and got my inspiration!"
"Nah this place is hip. I'm talking about the rest of the town. I can't wait to get outta here."
"Nah man you got this town all wrong, this place is great."
"Yeah well, I hate to break it to ya but, Even if you dragged me out that door I would never see what you see in this town."
"Suit yourself." With that he walked out the door and it immediately turned from rainy weather to sunny. Floyd couldn't just stand there so he ran out after him. Anything the doctor was doing Floyd was doing for instance, When Dr. Teeth was hopping through a hopscotch court Floyd was. When the doctor did a flip off a brick wall Floyd tried to but ended up landing flat on his face.
"Oh now, what 'cha doin?" Dr. Teeth asked.
"I'm trying to see what you see in this boring old town." Floyd responded muffled.
"Look man, if you wanna see what I see in this "boring" old place then look. See that clothes store? That's where I learned how to dress."
"Oh! That's where you got the idea for that vest."
"It's a rug man." Dr. Teeth said proudly.
"See that organic food store? I could get all of my favorite foods there for a fair price."
"Man, usually what I find in there is the smell of burnt pumpkins and honeysuckle.
"Yeah that too. C'mon." Once inside there was a girl with long brown hair who's name was wendy (See the muppet show S1 E3, you can see her sitting at a table with Dr. Teeth)
"Teeth?! I haven't seen you in Weeks!" she said before giving him a hug.
"It's been about a year at least on my account."
"I've really missed you." Wendy said softly.
"Well, I've missed you too." They stared into eachother's eyes until Floyd broke the silence,
"Ah-em, Excuse me but, you were showing me what makes this town great?" Dr. Teeth now focused replied,
"Oh right. So Wendy I need these supplies. You remember my address right?"
"Sure do! Just follow the music!"
"So about the fair price I was telling you about. She lets you pay her in shiny beads. All right catch ya later Wendy!"
"Bye!"
"Well where we goin now?"
"Sorry man. I don't know where your goin but I'm goin home."
"What? No! I wanna go and do the stuff that you did!"
"No man. You don't wanna do the stuff I did. Besides music is a waste of time."
"Nah man Dr. Teeth never says music is a waste of time! Imagine my feelings are you really that selfish?"
"Hey man just because your in my face, doesn't mean I'll let ya in my head." With that Dr. Teeth got into his bus (Whatever you think it was there before) and drove away. Leaving Floyd to yell,
"I could ride in the trunk if you want!" Then Wendy commented,
"It's such a pretty bus." Back at the warehouse the young 'electric mayhem' members were playing their instruments until Floyd ran in yelling,
"Guys! I Met Dr. Teeth and he's moved back here!"
"Really? What happened? Did he say he was going back to the music?" Zoot asked.
"Umm, no. No he didn't say.... that. He actually said he was quitting the music." Everybody was questionally exclaiming but Floyd interrupted,
"Hey! It's okay 'cause I'm determined to find out exactly why."
"Like, how?" Janice asked. Suddenly a light bulb lit on the top of his head, which was really a lamp behind him.
"Follow me!" after the hippie and smart teen group ran out, Trumbone girl turned off the lamp, then skipped out the door happily. While walking down a sidewalk Scooter asked,
"So why are we walking down this part of town Floyd?"
"This is the way Dr. Teeth drove, and the only way we'll find his place is if we follow the music."
"How will we know if it's Dr. Teeth's music?"
"Hmm, Bunsen and Beaker. Did you bring any super hearing devices?"
"Unfortunately no, but we could always try using our ears." With open ears the gang heard music inside a nearby apartment. Once inside they heard the music coming from behind a trash can.
"Like, what would Dr. Teeth be doing behind that trash can?" Janice wondered
"I know what Dr. Teeth COULD be doing behind that trash can." Zoot piped. When the trash can was moved it appeared to be a rabbit listening to a radio.
"Meep meep meep meep." said Beaker
"Your right Beakie. That was anti-climactic." Floyd listened down the hallway and heard what appeared to be keyboard music.
"Hey guys, this way." After knocking on the door it opened slowly. Inside it appeared to be a room with sheets over furniture except one box that was glowing. It appeared to have musical instruments.
"I hope there's a Trumbone in here." Trumbone girl wondered. she threw out instruments that she didn't need such as: A bass, A lead guitar, a saxophone, some drums, a trumpet, and finally a trumbone,
"This'll do." Before blowing the instrument in rythm. Before you could ask they all played the instruments that they catched until Dr. Teeth barged in shouting,
"Hold up!"
"Hey Dr. Teeth, wanna jam with us?" After shooting Floyd a glare they were all kicked out of the building.
"Well, I'll take that as a know." Skeeter trying to brighten the mood said,
"At least we aren't wet." Being proven wrong they got splashed with water by a passing car.
Once they got back Zoot was discussing with Floyd,
"Now where was I?"
"That you can't believe Dr. Teeth still doesn't want to go back to the music."
"Nah that's not it. Oh yeah! See the thing I don't get about Leia is her sovergnty. I mean if you were her wouldn't you take her mom's place? I mean you would be queen at that point."
"Nah man, her mom was dead before they blew up Alderaan, so she would be queen already."
"Ah, that whole series is flood. Like that Lightsaber stuff. It goes about 10 feet high, how does it know when to stop?"
"Uhh, the Force?"
"Man, that's your answer to everything."
"So what should we do to get Dr. Teeth back into the funk?"
"Hmmm. How about we show him how good we can play?"
"That couldn't possibly fail. Wait, wasn't there a park with a gazebo in front of that apartment?"
"I think so. Why?"
"We could play in there, so everyone in town could hear how good we sound!"
"Well that's serendippitydop."
"Hey everyone! I have one final plan to get Dr. Teeth..."
"For pete sake's Floyd! We've had enough of your plans! Dr. Teeth won't come back to the music, Just accept it!" scooter yelled. Floyd glared thinking,
"Fine, I tried asking now I use force." That force was knocking everybody out and dragging them in a sack all the way to the park. For the second time Dr. Teeth walked into Clifford's pawn shop holding the box that had the instruments in it,
"Hey Clifford, I'm giving these back, since I won't need 'em."
"Awww, what? Not these instruments."
"Sorry man, but my descision's final."
"Either I play music now or I won't play ever." Floyd told everyone who then groaned,
"Ohhh, okay." They started playing an instrumental version of "Can you picture that?" Dr. Teeth heard it and said,
"That sounds so familiar."
"Of course it does. It's music man." Clifford added. The song came to a stop when Janice interrupted,
"Okay this is like, pointless. There's nobody listening."
"I'm listening." Dr. Teeth pointed out
"Man what took you so long?" Floyd asked.
"You remind me of me when I was a kid."
"Except a lot better." he said slyly,
"You wanna get better? You got a lot to learn."
"Like what?"
"Like, You gotta show 'em what a band sounds like! Oh yeah! Whoo! Everybody's lover, everybody's brother, I wanna be your lifetime friend! Crazy as a rocket, nothin in my pocket, I keep it at the rainbow's end! I never think of money, I think of milk 'n honey, grinning like a cheshire cat! I focus on the pleasure, somethin I can treasure, can you picture that? Can you picture that? Oh yeah! Whoo! Ha! Hey Floyd, take a verse!"
"Let me take your picture, add it to the mixture there it is I got ya now! There's really nothin to it, anyone can do it, it's easy and we all know how, now begins the changin, mental rearrangin, nothin really where it's at!"
"Now the Eiffel tower's holdin up a flower, I gave it to a Texas cat!"
" Fact is there's nothin out there you can't do, yeah even Santa Claus believes in you!"
"Break down the walls, begin, believe, behold, begat!"
"Be a better drummer, be a up and comer, can you picture that?"
" Can you picture that?! Rahhh!"
"Oh really?"
"All of us are winnin, pickin and a grinnin, lordy but I love to jam!"
"Jelly belly gigglin, dancin and a wigglin, honey that's the way I am!"
"I lost my heart in Texas, Northern lights affect us, I keep it underneath my hat! Aurora Borealis, shining down on Dallas, Can you picture that? Can you picture that?"
"Can you picture?"
"You gotta see it in your mind!"
"Can you picture?"
"What's quick and easy to find!"
"Can you picture?"
"You don't have to buy a frame!"
"Can you picture? Can you picture that? Can you picture that?"
"Use it if you need it!"
"But don't forget to feed it!"
"Can you picture that?"
"So docta, since you know so much about music and you wanna lay low, how about running us through, so we can become famous like you did? As far as we can tell, that's about as low as you can lay." Suddenly a limo pulled up and out walked Dr. Teeth's manager exclaiming,
"Dr. Teeth! There you are! I've been looking all over for you! I knew I'd find you, all I had to do was follow the music!" and off they went. Later in the downstairs lobby of their home Floyd was mopingly compositioning,
"Well, since Dr. Teeth left, I guess I have no inspiration." there was a knock on the door and when it was opened Dr. Teeth was standing there smiling. Everyone cheered for his prescence.
"Dude we've gotta stop meeting like this." Floyd commented
"Yeah that's how I like it."
"But you walked out on us earlier, you got in that limo with that person." Trumbone girl said.
"Yeah I did but then I realized something, when we were playing that song I realized that it's hard to run away from music. And I knew then That's why walked off of that stage in Japan, I stopped having fun. When my manager offered me a two night, 200 city tour, whoo! I decided to come home once and for all to.." Everybody said together,
"To follow the music."
"So here's what I'll do, if ya'll let me hang out here for a while, and you promise to bring the fun, I will show you how to put the K on it." Everyone questioned,
"K-fun?"
"Oh! Like, I've always liked chinese food!"
"No I meant funk, ya'll have got a lot to learn, and I'm just the man to teach it to ya." Everyone cheered until Floyd interrupted,
"Hold up! I got somethin to say, Let's show 'em what a band sounds like!" Can you picture that was once again being played as the sun set behind the warehouse.
