Episode synopsis
THE NEW BAND When Marvin's old tape machine breaks, he promises his friends that he'll find them a live band for their show. After a few phone calls, he locates a band - The Penguins Five! Unfortunately the birds turn out to be noisy and bothersome, and refuse to practice! Just when everyone has lost faith and expects them to fail, the band comes through, giving a brilliant performance. EDDY'S VIDEO Jack wants to make a television commercial for the carnival and asks Eddy to shoot it. It's a simple enough task, until the carnival animals start getting too ""hammy"" and stop listening to Eddy's direction. When he gives up in frustration his friends realize what they've done and rush to apologize for being so self-centered. Jack is left to make his own commercial his own way.
