Pleas and Thank You's (Brermeerkat16)

Cast

Plot
Owl teaches Tigger about "please," the "magic word." Big mistake. Tigger misinterprets Owl's teaching and thinks he automatically gets what he wants when he says, "Please."

Summary
Tigger sees Kessie in the Wood while he is practicing his bouncing. Kessie points out that she can fly, thus enabling her to be able to go higher than Tigger. Tigger, hearing this, states that he wants to be able to fly like her, so he goes to Owl's to get some spare feathers.

Tigger isn't what one would call, "polite," when asking Owl for his spare feathers, so Owl tells Tigger about how you say, "Please," when you want something, and that it's the "magic word." Tigger tests it for himself, and, much to his surprise, Owl hands him a jar-full of his spare feathers.

Tigger goes up into the tree where we saw him at the beginning of the episode and jumps out, trying to fly. He starts to fall down, but then...he's flying--or is he?

It turns out, Kessie's really holding Tigger by the tail. She puts him down and explains that she was worried about him and didn't want him to get hurt. That doesn't stop Tigger. He still wants to fly.

So, Tigger runs into Piglet who's carrying balloons. Just what Tigger needs. Tigger asks if he can "please" have Piglet's balloons. "Actually, Tigger," explains Piglet, "I was going to use these balloons to decorate my house."

Tigger doesn't give up. He assumes Piglet's not "familarized" with the word, "please," so he repeats the word over and over until Piglet just gives up and hands him the balloons.

Tigger tries again to jump out of the tree and fly, this time sailing up with the help of the balloons. However, a bee pops all of the balloons, thus sending Tigger falling onto the ground.

Kessie is really concerned about Tigger now. She asks him to not jump off the top of the tree without anything protecting him when Tigger expresses the idea to her. Tigger has his mind set, however. Kessie goes to get help to stop him from jumping.

By the time Kessie arrives at the tree with Pooh, Piglet, and Owl, Tigger is already at the top, right about to jump. "I'd like to fly...please!" he says, feeling sure that he's doing the right thing.

Kessie flies up and stops Tigger, just before he's going to "take off." She asks him to "please" not do it. Tigger is upset now, since Kessie "used the magic word against him." Still, they go down together.

There, Tigger is explained by Owl that the word, "please" is not really magic, and how it should be used properly. Tigger's learned his lesson.
