THE NEIGHBORHOOD ARCHIVE - All Things Mister Rogers | ||
Episode 1043 Air Date: April 9, 1969 Mister Rogers arrives wearing a pair of overalls and carrying a bucket which he fills with water. Planning to use the water to mix some cement, he asks Picture Picture to share a film about a cement truck. Outside on the porch, Mister Rogers mixes some cement in a large tub as he sings You've Got To Do It. With the cement properly prepared, it is used to complete a step up to the front porch of the house. In the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, Dr. Marchl has a rubber ball belonging to Robert Troll which X the Owl initially thinks is an orange. Queen Sara has asked Dr. Marchl to talk with Robert Troll about his feelings. Henrietta tells Dr. Marchl where he can find Robert Troll by singing To Go To Someplace Else. At Someplace Else, Robert Troll shares with Dr. Marchl and Donkey Hodie that he would like to live at Lady Elaine Fairchilde's campsite but is nervous about asking. With the encouragement and support of Dr. Marchl and Donkey Hodie, Robert Troll approaches Lady Elaine at the Museum-Go-Round. Clearly overwhelmed and busy, Lady Elaine is glad to let Robert Troll stay at the campsite. In return, Robert Troll offers to help Lady Elaine at the Museum-Go-Round as well as at the campsite. Back at the house, Mister Rogers talks about the importance of sharing feelings and asking questions before he checks on the front step. NotesAs Mister Rogers goes to the porch, You Have To Learn Your Trade can be heard playing in the background. The concrete truck featured in the film was from the 43rd Street Concrete Company in Pittsburgh. Appearing In This Episode
