¶ It's a beautiful day
In this neighborhood ¶

¶ A beautiful day
For a neighbor ¶

¶ Would you be mine? ¶

¶ Could you be mine? ¶

¶ It's a neighborly day
In this beauty wood ¶

¶ A neighborly day
For a beauty ¶

¶ Would you be mine? ¶

¶ Could you be mine? ¶

¶ I have always wanted
To have a neighbor ¶

¶ Just like you ¶

¶ I've always wanted to live
In a neighborhood with you ¶

¶ So let's make the most
Of this beautiful day ¶

¶ Since we're together
We might as well say ¶

¶ Would you be mine? ¶

¶ Could you be mine? ¶

¶ Won't you be my neighbor? ¶

¶ Won't you please ¶

¶ Please, won't you be ¶

¶ My neighbor? ¶

Hello, neighbor.

It's so good
to see you again today.

[¶¶¶]

Did you see the...?

What special thing
I brought in to show you?

It's called a picture board.

Because behind each
one of these little doors...

is a picture of people.

[¶¶¶]

Lady Aberlin.

Mm-hm.

Let's see
who's behind this door.

Oh, here's
King Friday XIII.

With his crown and...

mustache and beard.

Who's behind here?

Oh, it's Mr. McFeely.

He always says,
"Speedy delivery," doesn't he?

I'd like you to meet
a new friend of mine.

His name is Lloyd Vogel.

Someone has hurt
my friend Lloyd.

And not just on his face.

[¶¶¶]

He is having
a hard time forgiving

the person who hurt him.

Do you--?
Do you know what that means?

To forgive?

It's a decision we make...

to release a person...

from the feelings of anger
we have at them.

It's strange, but sometimes...

it's hardest of all
to forgive someone we love.

Hm.

Let's say hello
to my new friend, Lloyd.

[¶¶¶]

Shall we?

[BELL TOLLING]

[¶¶¶]

[TROLLEY BELL CHIMING]

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

¶ I never felt magic
Crazy as this ¶

¶ I never saw moons
Knew the meaning of the sea ¶

[CRICKETS CHIRPING]

¶ I never held emotion
In the palm of my hand ¶

¶ Or felt sweet breezes
In the top of a tree ¶

¶ But now you're here ¶

¶ Brighten my northern sky ¶

[SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE]

EMCEE:
Here to present this year's
award for feature writing,

please welcome last year's
winner, Lloyd Vogel.

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

[CHUCKLES]

[MAN WHOOPS]

[CLEARS THROAT]

Thank you.

It's so wonderful to be among

so many
of my fellow misfits tonight.

[AUDIENCE CHUCKLES]

So...

why do we write for magazines
for a living?

Honestly, because doing
anything else

doesn't seem
quite like living at all.

We get a front-row seat
to history.

We get to expose the truth
that others cannot see.

And sometimes,

just sometimes,

we get to change a broken world
with our words.

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

[¶¶¶]

Mm, thank you.

I needed this. I ate
a block of cheese for dinner.

[LAUGHS]

So, what are we forgetting?

You definitely
need more diapers.

More than this?

We're going to Jersey
for one night.

We go through
at least 12 a day.

We do?
Mm-hm.

What are you feeding that kid?

Would it be easier
if we left him with a sitter?

You know I'm not ready
to leave him with a stranger.

Okay? He's too little.
Yeah.

Your sister called last night.
Mm-hm.

She wanted to make sure
you had written your toast.

Oh, I'm all set.
I'm gonna use my speech

from her first wedding.
Or maybe her second.

Oh, yeah. Just change the names.
Yeah.

And, um, hey, she wanted me
to tell you something.

Okay.

Your father's coming.

I guess she reached out
a couple months ago,

and he didn't respond,
but then he called,

and now he's coming
to the wedding.

Oh.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

But I don't think we should go.
Lloyd.

What? Seriously, why have a baby
if you can't use him

to get out
of social obligations?

This is what Lorraine
was afraid of,

that you would back out.
I'm kidding.

I'm not gonna miss
her wedding.

I look forward to them
every year.

Okay.

I think it'll be nice for Gavin
to meet his grandfather.

[CHUCKLES]

Sure.

[¶¶¶]

Damn it!

[GAVIN CRYING]

[GASPS]

Daddy's just being funny.

Daddy's being funny.

It's impossible.

Here.

Take him. Here.

Shh, shh, shh.

There.

Great.

[HORNS HONKING]

He looks terrified.

He should be.
He's marrying Lorraine.

["CANON IN D MAJOR"

[GUESTS MURMURING]

[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING]

[HEART BEATING]

Oh, my God, you look beautiful.
Absolutely.

I'm 10 pounds short of
my target weight, but whatever.

Lloyd, the brother.
I know, man.

I'm Todd. You know, the husband.
Yeah.

And look at you,

you little peanut, ha.

I don't think we're having kids.
How, um... How did that happen?

[CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

I invited him and he came.

To walk you down the aisle?
Really?

He offered.
He missed the first two.

I thought, "Why the hell not?"
I can think of a few reasons.

He's old.

And if he's gonna try
to make an effort...

[SILVERWARE CLINKING ON GLASS]

Oh, I guess it's time
we get this started. Um...

So, in lieu of the typical
father-of-the-bride speech,

I thought I'd, um, well...

I'd like to sing
a little ditty.

[GUESTS MURMURING]

[BAND PLAYING JAZZ SONG]

Now, this one's
for my Lorraine.

And for you too.

[SOFTLY]
What's his name again?

[NORMALLY]
Uh, for Todd.

Yeah.

¶ I know I stand in line ¶

¶ Until you think
You have the time ¶

¶ To spend an evening with me ¶

¶ And if we go
Someplace to dance ¶

¶ I know that there's a chance
You won't be leaving with me ¶

¶ Then afterwards we drop
Into a quiet little place ¶

¶ And have a drink or two ¶

Admit it, now you wish
we hadn't eloped.

¶ Then I go and spoil it all ¶
He's drunk.

¶ By saying something stupid ¶

Yeah, well, he can sing.
¶ Like I love you ¶

¶ I love you ¶

¶ I love you ¶

¶ I love you ¶

[GUESTS CHATTERING]

[MUSIC PLAYING SOFTLY
OVER SPEAKERS]

[GAVIN FUSSING]

Well, here we are...

in the pearl
of the Garden State, huh?

[CHUCKLES]

Hello, Jerry.

Oh, come on.
You don't have to call me Jerry.

Or call me Jerry,
I don't care.

And hello to you.

[CHUCKLES]

Hi. I'm Andrea,
Lloyd's wife.

Andrea! Of course.

What a...

unique pleasure.

And hello, little fella.

And this is Gavin.

What a handsome man.

You look just like me.

[LAUGHS]

Yeah, let's
get a drink, huh?

What's this stuff,
uh, pop?

Oh, this stuff
will kill you.

I'm just giving my toast,
then we're leaving, so...

Mm...

Doll?

Could you, uh,
give us a moment?

She's-- She's not a doll.

She's a public interest
attorney.

Well, is there money
in that?

You know what?
We're gonna circulate, okay?

You got a baby.

And a wife.

You happy?

I'm happy.
Yeah.

Well, she seems
nice enough, hm?

But, I mean, aren't you a little
old to have a baby, huh?

[LAUGHING]

[SIGHS]

I'm not that old.

Well, you're smart.

Your mom and I
hardly knew each other

when she got pregnant.
But we were babies, huh?

Don't talk about her.
[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING]

Oh, whoa, wait a minute.
You don't know the whole story.

Your mom was not the saint--
Don't talk about my mom!

What are you doing?
Get off me!

Hey!
Come on, what are you doing?

[GAVIN CRYING]

Come on.

[GUESTS GASPING]

What the hell?
Ugh.

[GUESTS CHATTERING]

[JERRY GROANS]

You didn't hear him.
You were out of control.

He was out of control.

You're not gonna take
responsibility for any of this?

Of course I am. I offered to pay
for Lorraine's dry cleaning.

[¶¶¶]

Have you ever felt
the way Lloyd does?

So angry you want
to hurt someone?

Or yourself?

I know I have.

When I was a boy,
I was very chubby.

And the other kids
would chase me

and call me names,

like Fat Freddy.

It made me very sad.

Sometimes,
when I was by myself,

I would cry.

And other times,

it made me very angry.

There is always
something you can do

with the mad that you feel.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Did you hear that?

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Oh!

Someone is at my door.

Let's go see who it is.

It's Mr. McFeely.

[¶¶¶]

Speedy delivery.

[CHUCKLES]

Look. It's a magazine.
Oh.

Thank you.

Magazines are always so full
of interesting information.

They sure are.

My friend Lloyd works
for a magazine.

He is a very
wonderful writer.

That reminds me,
I have a video I found.

And I thought you
and your neighbor

may like to see it.
What is it?

It's about how people
make a magazine.

It's called
"How People Make a Magazine."

I know lots of people
like magazines.

I thought you might
find this interesting.

I think we would. Do you
have time to show it to us now?

Well, I'd be glad
to see it again.

Let's look at it
on Picture Picture.

[¶¶¶]

We'll watch it
on Picture Picture...

and see how people make...

a magazine.

[¶¶¶]

[¶¶¶]

McFEELY:
This is the ink they use
in the printing press

that prints the magazines.

FRED:
Yellow ink.

It looks like mustard.

[McFEELY CHUCKLES]

McFEELY:
And these are large rolls

of blank paper
that are getting loaded

into the machine.

FRED:
I wonder how many magazines
they can make

out of one
of those large rolls.

McFEELY:
They print the magazines

in giant sheets,
one color at a time.

This machine
assembles the magazine

and glues it all together.

FRED:
Oh, now, who's this?

McFEELY:
These are the people who decide

what will be
in
the magazine.

They pick the pictures
and design the layout.

FRED:
Oh, that's an important job.

McFEELY:
These are the people
who write the words

that go into a magazine.

FRED:
It's a lot of work

to make a magazine,
isn't it?

McFEELY:
It certainly is.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING
INDISTINCTLY]

[KNOCKS SOFTLY ON DOOR]

Yeah?
Pay no attention to my face.

Softball injury.
Nothing to worry about.

Good morning, Ellen.
How are you?

[CHUCKLES]

Well, this should be
interesting.

What should?
Sending you on an assignment

with your face all busted up.

An assignment?
Yep.

You're the perfect person
for it. You just had a baby.

Why are you giving me
an assignment?

We're doing an issue on heroes,

and we're profiling a number
of inspirational people.

We just need
a small piece of copy

to accompany a pretty photo.

You hired me
as an investigative journalist.

I don't do puff pieces.
Wait a second.

Didn't I hire you to do
whatever I tell you to do?

And right now
that's doing a profile

on one of
our nation's heroes.

Who?

Mister Rogers.

As in the hokey kids' show guy?

As in the beloved
children's television host, yes.

Look, I--

I think this could help you,
Lloyd, just...

start to change your image.

I-- I don't need
to change my image.

Okay.

Ellen?

He was the only person
on our list

willing to be
interviewed by you, Lloyd.

I guess you're developing
a reputation.

A reputation?
People love talking to me.

Yeah, they do, until they read
what you write about them.

So, what, I'm supposed
to go easy on this guy

because he plays with puppets
for a living?

Four hundred words.
Play nice.

[SCOFFS]

Hello. This is Lloyd Vogel,
um, from
Esquire
magazine.

I'm calling to schedule
an interview with, um...

Mister Rogers.

Sorry about your face!

[JERRY CHUCKLES]

You know,
I got it good too.

Look, I messed this up, hm?

I just want to talk to you.

We have a lot
that needs to be said.

No.

I'm not gonna be ambushed.

Come on, Lloyd!

Nine different types
of diapers.

Hey, Lloyd.

Hey. What are you
doing over here?

[CHILDREN'S SONG

¶ Down by the bay ¶

[PHONE RINGING]

I got it!

Hello?

FRED [ON PHONE]:
Lloyd?

Who's this?

FRED:
This is Fred Rogers.

Hi, that was quick.

FRED:
Well, I figured,
if you want to talk to me,

I should want to
talk to you.

Uh, yeah, I just wanted
to set a time

to sit with you
and ask a few questions.

FRED:
I'm happy
to schedule something,

except for one thing.

What's that?

FRED:
You have me here right now.

Uh, okay. Um, sure.

FRED:
On our program, I try to look
through the camera

into the eyes
of a single child...

and speak to him or her,

trying to be fully present

to their feelings
and their needs.

Right.

FRED:
Do you know
what the most important thing

in the world
is to me right now?

Uh, no.

FRED:
Talking on the telephone
to Lloyd Vogel.

ANDREA:
Hey.

Hey.

You okay?

I got an assignment.

[INHALES DEEPLY]

Where you going this time?

Pittsburgh.

Tomorrow.
Ah.

I'm profiling Mister Rogers.

Really?

Oh, well, I love him.

You do?

Yeah.

Why?

I don't know.

Wait.

Ellen is giving
you a profile?

She knows
that's not what you do.

I think that's her point.

Well, can you say no?

Can you take some time
and be with us for a while?

You didn't take off any time
when Gavin was born.

Not really.

Oh, well, at least
it's someone good.

Yeah.

We'll see.

Oh, God, Lloyd, please,

don't ruin my childhood.

[¶¶¶]

WOMAN 1: I love y'all!
WOMAN 2: I love you too!

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

[TROLLEY BELL DINGING]

Hey, I'm looking
for Fred Rogers.

Who?
Am I in the wrong place?

I know who you are.
In here.

You'll get about 20 minutes
with him during the break.

I was told an hour.

You're not gonna try
to fight him, are you?

Oh, uh, softball league.
Play at the plate.

Maybe you shouldn't have led
with your face.

[WHISPERS]
Hi, Evan.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING
SOFTLY]

Sorry, guy.
Could be a minute.

Is this a Make-A-Wish thing?

How we doing, Margy?

He's ruining my life.

How long?

Half hour already, which...

puts us at 73 minutes behind.
Yikes.

I gotta go in.

Cover me.
You're on your own.

...color of sweater
that I do.

But I can't see colors
very well.

Isn't that funny, hm?
Don't.

Look at that.
Look at that.

I'm sorry.
Son, he's talking to you.

Okay, sweetie. Honey, honey.
Oh!

All right. Hm.
Honey!

MOTHER:
Don't do that, sweetheart.

That-- That sword
looks awfully sharp.

And heavy too.

Not really.
No?

Well, you must be
very strong in order to...

hold it like that.

And I bet
you are very strong

on the inside too.

Oh, well, ho, ho.

MOTHER: Oh!
FRED: Well, oh...ho, ho.

Oh, I like that.

Thank you.
Terribly sorry.

Yes, right.
We need to start.

Can I--?
Can I take your picture, hm?

Yes.
Yes?

Everybody make sure
you can see me.

Now... Oh, thank you.

Thank you so much for coming and
visiting us in the neighborhood.

Folks, if you'll follow me.
Okay.

Thank you.
Great job.

You did such a good job.
How often does this happen?

Every day.

Okay, here we go!

Everybody settle.

Quiet, please.

Roll sound.

Sound speeds.
MARGY: Mark it.

And...
[CLEARS THROAT]

action.

Do you know what this is?

[¶¶¶]

It's Lloyd.

L-- Lloyd.

Hold, please!

We can't fire him,
can we?

Hello, Lloyd. Oh, it's nice
to meet you. What--?

Are you all right?
Play at the plate.

Oh, mercy,
that looks like it hurts.

Uh, let's chat afterwards.
We need to keep moving.

Have Evan
take a look at him.

No, I'm good. I'm good.
No, I'm sorry, Fred.

Yeah.
We just need to...

All right, all right.

[CHUCKLES]

It's wonderful to meet you.
So glad you're here.

I'm looking forward to talking
with you, I truly am.

After this.

Everyone, this is Lloyd Vogel.
He is a wonderful writer.

MARGY:
Thank you, Fred.

Okay, resetting.
Step over here.

[WHISPERS
INDISTINCTLY]

Roll sound.

TECHNICIAN:
Sound speeds.

And slate.

And action.

Do you know what this is?

It's a tent.

Let's set it up.

[¶¶¶]

Oh, mercy.

A little bit trickier
than I thought.

[GRUNTS]

[CHUCKLES]
FRED: Oh!

[WHISPERS]
This is impossible.

[GRUNTING]

I can't. I can't do it.

It must...

It must take two grown-ups
to set up a tent.

And that's a cut.
Let's go again.

[CREW LAUGHING]

No, no, let's...

Let's look at that.

ASSISTANT DIRECTOR:
Okay, roll playback, please.

[MUSIC PLAYS ON MONITOR]

[FRED GRUNTS ON MONITOR]

Oh, mercy.

A little bit trickier
than I thought.

We could preset
the tent for you.

No, no, no, I-I--
I think this is good.

Yeah.

Yeah, I think we're okay.

ASSISTANT DIRECTOR: Great? Good.
FRED: Yeah.

That's lunch, everybody.
FRED: Oh.

The...

The tent. Why didn't you
let them set it up for you?

Well, children need to know

that even when adults
make plans,

sometimes they don't turn out
the way we'd hoped.

Mm-hm.

How long have you
been married, Lloyd?

Uh, eight years.

Oh, eight year--
Oh, that's...

a wonderful
accomplishment.

Does your spouse
have a name?

Andrea.

I would like
to meet Andrea someday.

I'm sure. Um...

You've lived in Pittsburgh
your whole life?

I grew up not too far from here
in a town called Latrobe.

But we've lived here
quite some time,

and we've raised
our boys here.

And do you think living here
makes it easier

or more difficult
to be a celebrity?

Oh, "celebrity." Mercy.

You don't consider
yourself famous?

"Fame" is a four-letter word,

like "tape" or "zoom"
or "face."

What ultimately matters
is what we do with it.

And what are
you doing with it?

We are trying to give
children positive ways

to deal with their feelings.

This piece will be
for an issue about heroes.

Do you consider yourself
a hero?

I don't think of myself
as a hero.

No, not at all.

What about Mister Rogers?
Is he a hero?

I don't understand
the question.

Well, there's you, Fred,

and then there's the character
you play, Mister Rogers.

You said it was a play
at the plate?

Is that--?
Is that what--?

Is that what
happened to you?

What did happen to you,
Lloyd?

I got into a fight.

Oh. Oh, my.

Who did you get
into a fight with?

[LAUGHS NERVOUSLY]

It's not important.

[SIGHS]

Jerry.

Mm. And who is Jerry?

My father.

Oh, my.

I'd rather not
talk about it.

Well, what were you
and your father fighting about?

I-I'm here to interview you,
Mister Rogers.

Well, that is
what we're doing, isn't it?

We're ready for you
in Studio B, Fred.

Okay, Margy.
I thought we had 20 minutes.

Lloyd, can I take
your picture?

I like to take pictures
of people that I meet.

Then I can show them
to Joanne later on.

Thank you so much.

I do hope you'll stick around.
I really do.

Tha... That's--?
That's it?

Did she just talk

Daniel isn't
just a puppet.

Daniel is Fred,

You mean--
Please stop talking.

FRED [AS DANIEL]:
Well, hello, Lady Aberlin.

Oh, hi, Daniel.

Are you making
that funny smell?

Oh, do you mean
that skunk kind of smell? No.

I'm trying to help
that smell go away.

By squirting another smell?

That's right.
A sweet-smelling smell.

Want to smell?
FRED [AS DANIEL]: Okay.

[ABERLIN CHUCKLES]

[SPRITZING]
[FRED SNIFFS]

Ah!
Mm, that does smell good.

Mm-hm.

Where did that bad smell
come from?

Oh, Mr. Skunk.

Hm.

He got scared,

and he just sprayed
this smell all over me.

Oh, no.
Did he say he was sorry?

No.
[GASPS]

And that just makes me...

so very mad,

and I don't know
what to do.

Oh, Daniel.

[¶¶¶]

¶ What do you do
With the mad that you feel ¶

¶ When you feel so mad
You could bite? ¶

¶ When the whole wide world
Seems, oh, so wrong ¶

¶ And nothing you do
Seems very right ¶

ABERLIN:
¶ What do you do?
Do you punch a bag? ¶

¶ Do you pound some clay
Or some dough? ¶

¶ Do you round up friends
For a game of tag ¶

¶ Or see how fast you go? ¶

¶ I can stop when I want to
Can stop when I wish ¶

¶ Can stop, stop, stop anytime ¶

¶ And what a good feeling
To feel like this ¶

¶ And know that the feeling
Is really mine ¶

[IN UNISON]
¶ Know that there's something
Deep inside ¶

¶ That helps us become
What we can ¶

¶ For a girl can be
Someday a woman ¶

¶ And a boy can be
Someday a man ¶

[SONG ENDS]

Thank you,
Lady Aberlin.

Thank you, Daniel.

I-- I feel better.

Oh, I'm so glad.

I just don't know
if he's for real.

That's not for you
to say, Lloyd.

I think with
a few more interviews--

No, no, no, I told you,
this isn't an exposé, okay?

Just please put pen to paper.
A couple funny anecdotes.

Keep it simple.
I can't do that, Ellen.

He's a lot more complex
than I thought.

He's a children's
entertainer.

He's Mister-freaking-Rogers.

This isn't Gorbachev
we're talking about.

I don't think you understand
what you're asking.

I'm asking you to do your job.
Now, get out.

Come back when you
have your first draft.

[TAPE FAST-FORWARDING]

ARSENIO:
We all grew up with you...

Hey.
Hi.

I see things going on
out there, kind of worries me.

I wish more people would...

How'd it go?

He's just about
the nicest person I've ever met.

When you say it, it doesn't
sound like a compliment.

[CHUCKLES]

There is-- There's
an attitude out there.

There's some things going on.
There's a lot of hopelessness.

What do we need to do?

There's no simple answers,
of course,

but if we could,
through television programs,

as well as every other
imaginable program,

let people know that each one
of us is precious.

ARSENIO:
It all starts in the home.

We can never underrate
how important that is.

FRED:
I don't think anybody can grow
unless he really is accepted

exactly as he is.

If somebody is always saying
to a child,

"Oh, you're--
You're going to grow up,

and you're going to be fine."

There's so much
of that already.

It's your turn.

Yeah.
And so a child is appreciated

for what he
will be
and not for what he is.

"He will be
a great consumer someday.

And so the quicker
we can get them out of the nest

so they can go out and buy,
then the better."

What do you think is the
biggest mistakes parents make

in raising their children?

FRED:
Um, not to remember
their own childhood.

OPRAH:
Yeah?

I think that the best thing
that we can do is to...

think about what
it was like for us

and know what our children
are going through.

OPRAH:
It's so hard once you get
to be a parent.

You always say,
"I will never do this,"

when your mother or father
is doing it to you.

You say, "I will never
do this to my child."

And then you get to our age

and you forget what
it was like to be this size.

You really do forget.

Well, but those children can
help re-evoke what it was like.

That's why,
when you're a parent,

you have a new chance
to grow.

OPRAH:
You do.

Did you ever--?
I can't imagine--

I know that you are the father
of two boys,

but I can't imagine
you ever having a problem

with your children.
You ever have any?

FRED:
Well, of course.

I'm a human being
just like everybody else.

OPRAH:
I thought you would
talk to them and say:

"Can you say, 'Good morning?'"
And they would change.

FRED:
But, you know, a lot of people
do those parodies, just--

¶ Well, I left my happy home ¶

¶ To see
What I could find out ¶

¶ I left my folk and friends ¶

¶ With the aim
To clear my mind out ¶

¶ Well, I hit the rowdy road
And many kinds I met there... ¶

Lloyd, hello!

I can stop, stop, stop anytime.

Son, what were you afraid of?

Oh, no, Lloyd.

Meow, meow.

If they get a divorce or
if they don't get a divorce,

they'll still be
your mom and dad.

Speedy Delivery.

[SHUTTER CLICKS]

[PHONE BEEPS]

ANDREA:
Hello?

FRED [ON PHONE]:
Oh, my. I woke you.
Is this Andrea?

Yes.

FRED:
This is Fred Rogers.

Oh, hi.
Who is it?

Uh, Lloyd's right here.

No, Andrea,
while I have you,

I just want to thank you so much
for sharing Lloyd with us.

Can't be easy, him traveling
with Gavin at home.

Oh, well, thank you
for saying that.

I'm gonna give Lloyd
to you now.

[WHISPERS]
Mister Rogers knows my name.

This is Lloyd.

You left without
getting to say goodbye.

So I'm glad we get
to continue to talk.

I'm going to New York City today
to film.

And Joanne
is coming with me,

and we thought you might like
to come down and say hello.

Um...

[PLAYING UPTEMPO TUNE]

How much time do you think
I'll have with him today?

You're here
because Fred wants you here.

Honored.

He likes everybody,
but he loves people like you.

People like me?

I've read your work.

You don't really care
for humanity, do you?

[SCOFFS]

I'm just doing my job.

I insisted he read you
before we agreed.

And did he?

Every article
we could find.

[SONG ENDS]

[FRED GASPS, APPLAUDS]

Oh, thank you,
thank you.

That made me want to get up
and do a little dance.

MUSICIAN 1:
We have a surprise for you,
Mister Rogers.

We're gonna play one of your
songs called "You Are Special."

Oh! Well, how wonderful.

But how do you play your
instruments without your bows?

Well, we can play
pizzicato,

which means we're going to pluck
the strings with our fingers.

FRED:
Oh.

MUSICIAN 2:
One, two, three, one, two.

[PLAYING "YOU ARE SPECIAL"]

[PEOPLE LAUGHING, CHATTERING]

FRED: Hello, everybody. Hi.
WOMAN: Hi.

FRED:
How nice to see you all.
How nice to see you.

[CHUCKLES]

FRED:
Lovely to meet you.

Oh, I call this move
the "handshake handoff."

I love your show.
Thank you for coming.

LLOYD:
That's quite a skill.

We stole Bill from the
governor's office 14 years ago.

You got a chance
to know him yet?

Love Bill. Big fan.

He is very protective
of Rog.

You call him "Rog"?

We don't call him
Mister Rogers at home, dear.

Joanne Rogers. Ha!
Oh, nice to meet you.

You as well, dear.

So how does it feel to be
married to a living saint?

You know, I'm not fond
of that term.

If you think of him
as a saint,

then his way of being
is unattainable.

You know, he works at it
all the time. It's a practice.

[CHUCKLES]

He's not a perfect person.

He has a temper.

He chooses how he responds
to that anger.

That must take
a lot of effort.

Well, yeah, he--
He does things every day

that help to ground him.

Reads Scripture, swims laps,

prays for people by name.

Writes letters,
hundreds of them.

He's been doing that
since I met him.

Thank you so much, so much.
You be good.

Bye, Mister Rogers.
Thanks, folks.

Thank you, folks,
for coming out.

FRED: My love.
Bye, my love.

We'll see you in just
a few hours or so.

Yes. Just have a good time.

I thought you and I would
spend some time talking.

Oh, of course.

Weren't those ladies
spectacular?

Incredible.
Just marvelous.

You know, I found out about
them through Joanne...

[CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY]

[¶¶¶]

Do you always
take the subway?

Well, Joanne and I
have an apartment.

It's just a few stops away,

and it's-- It's the easiest way
to get around sometimes.

[DOOR CHIMES]

So...

you've covered
some heavy stuff, uh,

especially for a show
aimed at children.

Oh, I'm glad you've had
the chance to view the program.

Death, divorce, war.
It gets dark.

You know...

Maggie Stewart showed me

the most beautiful word
in sign language.

You know what that means?
It means "friend."

Isn't that perfect?

[CHILDREN CHATTERING]

Who's Maggie Stewart?

GIRL 1: Do it.
GIRL 2: Hey, Mister Rogers!

It's a beautiful...

BOTH:
¶ It's a beautiful day ¶

¶ In the neighborhood ¶

¶ A beautiful day
For a neighbor ¶

¶ Would you be mine?
Could you be mine? ¶

ALL CHILDREN:
¶ It's a neighborly day
In this beauty wood ¶

¶ A neighborly day
For a beauty ¶

¶ Would you be mine?
Could you be mine? ¶

ALL:
¶ I have always wanted
To have a neighbor ¶

¶ Just like you ¶

¶ I've always wanted to live
In a neighborhood with you ¶

¶ So let's make the most
Of this beautiful day ¶

¶ Since we're together
We might as well say ¶

¶ Would you be mine?
Could you be mine? ¶

¶ Won't you be my neighbor? ¶

¶ Won't you please ¶

¶ Please, won't you be
My neighbor? ¶

[ALL LAUGHING, APPLAUDING]

[¶¶¶]

Oh, that was wonderful.

It seems like
all these people line up

to tell you their problems.
Oh....

Isn't it wonderful?

Such bravery?

Well, uh...

it seems like
that would be

an incredible burden
on you.

Well, I'm grateful
for you saying that, Lloyd.

I'm grateful
for your compassion.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

Is it? A burden on you?

Okay, let's assume
it's a burden on you.

There-- There is no normal life
that is free from pain.

How do you deal with it?

Oh, well,
there are many ways

you can deal with your feelings
without hurting yourself

or anybody else.

Yeah, like--? Like what?

Well, you can pound
a lump of clay...

or swim as fast
as you can swim

or play the lowest keys on
a piano all at the same time.

[IMITATING PIANO
PLAYING DISCORDANTLY]

Do you ever talk to anyone
about the burden you carry?

[CONTINUES IMITATING
PIANO]

Would you like to meet
my special puppet friends

from the
Neighborhood of Make-Believe?

[UNZIPS SUITCASE]

[INHALES, EXHALES DEEPLY]

They look like
they've seen better days.

Well, they-- They've been
with me for quite a while.

You ever think about swapping
them out? Getting new ones?

Didn't you have a special friend
when you were very young, Lloyd?

A special friend?

Yeah, a special toy.

Or a... A stuffed animal
that you loved very much,

even as it got ratty
and worn out

and made you just love it
all the more?

I don't know.
I'm sure I did.

Can you tell me about
your special friend?

Uh, think I had a rabbit.

Did your rabbit
have a name?

Just "Rabbit."

It was "Old Rabbit."

And who gave you
Old Rabbit?

My mom.

She must love you
very much.

That she did. She, uh--
She died when I was young.

I'm sure that
if she saw you today,

the person you have become,

she would be proud of you.

I want to get back
to my questions.

You wanted to meet
my special friends

from the Neighborhood
of Make-Believe.

No, I asked you
about the burden you carry.

[VOCALIZING FANFARE]

[IN REGAL VOICE]
I am King Friday XIII.

Lloyd Vogel, the journalist,
I presume.

[NORMALLY]
And here's
Daniel Striped Tiger.

Now, sometimes Daniel
is too shy to talk, but...

But that's okay, Daniel.

Have you met Daniel?

Not officially, no.

FRED [AS DANIEL]:
I'd like to meet Old Rabbit.

I don't want to talk
about Old Rabbit, I got to say.

[NORMALLY]
Well, maybe Lloyd doesn't feel
like talking today, Daniel.

And-- And that's okay.

Can you put
the puppet down, Fred?

You stopped making the show
in the mid-'70s for three years.

Why'd you quit?

Well, at that point,
I felt the program had covered

all the major facets
of childhood.

And what brought you back?
Money?

Boredom?

My sons had grown
into teenagers,

and we were struggling.

We all were, and...

I realized then
that there was

still so much more
to talk about.

I can't imagine
it was easy...

growing up with you
as a father.

Until recently, my oldest
never told people about me.

He's very private,
and that's okay.

And my youngest son, he--

He genuinely tested me.

But, eventually,
we found our way,

and now I'm very proud
of both of them.

But you are right, Lloyd.

It couldn't have been
easy on them.

Thank you.

Thank you
for that perspective.

[EXHALES DEEPLY]

You're welcome.

Is that not the answer
you were hoping for?

Being a parent does not mean
being a perfect parent?

You might be experiencing
some of that now with your son.

And, uh...

I've been thinking a lot
about you and your father.

Did you work out
your disagreement?

[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING]

This is ridiculous.

Lloyd, where are you going?

We're done. Thanks.
Been a real pleasure.

[TRILLS LIPS]

[¶¶¶]

[DOOR SLAMS]

Mercy.

[ANDREA LAUGHING]

ANDREA: He's so quiet with you.
DOROTHY: Aw, thank you. Heh.

I'm good with babies.

Aren't I? Mm-hm.

[GAVIN COOING]

Hey, hey!

[KEYS JANGLE]

Come on, sit down.
We-- We cooked you some takeout.

They brought pizza.

Lloyd, this is,
uh, Dorothy.

Hello.

Can't you just
say hello?

Where's your manners?

I'm sorry.

Um, I think
we should go.

[GAVIN COOS]
[GROANS]

I had an idea, okay?

Maybe we'd eat some food,
we'd talk like people.

I messed things up
at the wedding.

Of course, you know,
you didn't help, but, uh...

Heh, heh, I get it.

And you let me sit out there
in my car

on the street
for two nights, uh...

like I'm homeless,
like I'm some kind of a bum.

Jerry, you're not helping.
Well, he won't say a word.

You came here
to introduce me to her?

Yeah.

To Dorothy.

Hi, Dorothy.
Hi, Lloyd.

Okay, you did
what you came here to do.

Now I want you to leave.
Lloyd.

I may never come back here.

So, uh, please,
listen to me.

Dorothy and I have been together
and in love for 15 years.

He left as soon
as Mom got sick.

Did you know that? Couldn't
even wait for her to die.

She didn't want me there.
Because you were sleeping around

while she was dying.
I know. I know it!

Took me years
to get myself together.

Dorothy's
why I'm standing here.

She helped me
grow the hell up!

You know what they tell you
about people when they're dying?

They tell you it's peaceful,
that they just slip away.

Mom screamed...when she went.
Did you know that?

She screamed
until she passed out.

JERRY: Ugh.
And then they came in

and revived her,
and she went right back to it.

It was just me, Lorraine
and the nurses.

Sign the paperwork, pack up the
house, put her in the ground.

Jerry?
Come on, Lloyd.

[GAVIN CRYING]

Oh, God, my jaw.

Jerry?

[GROANING]

Jerry.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Jerry!

I'll call 911.
Lloyd, do something!

[¶¶¶]

DOROTHY:
Just breathe. Breathe.
Look at me.

ANDREA: Hello?
DOROTHY: I'm right here.

Yes, we have a man
who's collapsed.

Yeah, we don't know.
I don't-- Is he breathing?

DOROTHY: Yeah.
ANDREA: He's breathing.

He's breathing.
It may be a heart attack.

Lloyd, do something!

DOCTOR:
The cardiac MRI revealed

more extensive stenosis
than we thought.

An operation at this time,

the risk of infection alone--

[SOBBING]

ANDREA:
You ready to sleep?

Had enough? You good?

[GAVIN COOS]

Okay, come on.

Know anything?

I hate hospitals.

[SIGHS]

You should go home
and get him to bed.

No.

I don't want to
leave you here.

I'm not staying here.

Okay.

Let's all go together.

No, I-I have to go
to Pittsburgh.

Right now?
Yeah, I have to work.

With your dad like this?

I have a deadline.

I'm sure Ellen
would understand

if you tell her
what's happening.

I-I don't want to.
I-- I wanna go to Pittsburgh.

I wanna do my job.

This shouldn't be
a surprise to you.

Hey, don't talk to me
like that.

You seem to think that
now that we have a kid,

I shouldn't care about the
things I've always cared about

because you don't anymore.
I still care about my work.

I have never asked you
to stop caring about your work.

I've gotta go.
Why?

Everyone who's important

is in this hospital
right now.

Can't you be on my side?

For once?
You used to be on my side.

I am telling you this
because I am on your side.

Now is not the time
to go to work.

What? What am I doing here?

Well, you're in this episode,
of course. Just wait there.

Roll sound.
TECHNICIAN: Sound speeds.

What--?
And slate.

And action!

[¶¶¶]

Oh, it's
my good friend, Lloyd.

Lloyd Vogel.
You remember Lloyd.

I don't understand
what's going on.

Can we stop?
Can we stop?

Are--? Are you feeling
unwell, Lloyd?

Stop asking me questions.
I ask you the questions.

On today's program, I thought
we would talk about hospitals.

Sometimes,
when somebody is sick,

they have to go
to a hospital.

I hate hospitals.

A hospital is a place
where people go.

Okay.
Would you like to pretend

you're in a hospital?
LLOYD: No!

[WHISTLE TOOTS]

[WHISTLE TOOTS TWICE]

[THUMP]

Hello, Old Rabbit.
LLOYD: What?

[¶¶¶]

[GRUNTING QUIETLY]

Old Rabbit, I presume.

I'm not-- I don't--
Where's--? Where's Fred?

I've been waiting
to meet you, Old Rabbit.

I'm so happy
you came for a visit.

Hello, Lady Aberlin.

Well, hello.

Hello, Old Rabbit.

[WHISPERS] Oh, my God.
We were discussing hospitals.

Well, a hospital is where
you go when your body is hurt.

But what do you do
when your feelings are hurt?

Why, you talk about them.

¶ It's good to talk ¶

¶ It's good to say
The things we feel ¶

What's happening to me?

¶ It's good to talk ¶

¶ We're much more real
Without the lock ¶

¶ I'm sad ¶

¶ I'm angry ¶

When did you become angry?

Do you remember?

Did something happen?

[¶¶¶]

Hey, peanut.

Hi, Mom.

Mm, I know you think
you're doing this for me...

holding on to this anger.

I don't need it.

[BREATHES SHAKILY]

FRED [ECHOING]:
Lloyd?

Lloyd?
BILL [WHISPERS]: What happened?

MARGY:
I don't know. He just--
He just collapsed.

BILL: Is he okay?

I'll get help.

Oh, good.

You're awake.

Oh, my goodness.
If I knew you were there,

I would have stopped
all this noise.

No, no, no, that was...
It was beautiful.

Now, you must be
very hungry, Lloyd.

Let me get my jacket,
and we'll go out.

I-- I should go.

Oh, no, no.
Nonsense, nonsense.

[¶¶¶]

Oh, look at this.
Thank you so much.

Enjoy.

Thank you.
Thank you.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Are you a vegetarian?

I just can't
imagine eating...

anything with a mother.

[CHUCKLES]

Bill was right. You...

love people like me.

What are people like you?

I've never met anyone like you
in my entire life.

Broken people.

I don't think
you are broken.

I know you are
a man of conviction.

A person who knows
the difference

between what is wrong
and what is right.

Try to remember that your
relationship with your father...

also helped
to shape those parts.

He helped you
become what you are.

Would you do something
with me, Lloyd?

It's an exercise
I like to do sometimes.

We'll just take a minute

and think about all the people
who loved us into being.

I-- I can't do that.

They will come to you.

Just one minute of silence.

[INHALES, EXHALES DEEPLY]

So the way I left...

Was messed up.

[SIGHS]

Yes, I should have
called you.

You shouldn't have left.

The doctor came to speak to you.
I didn't know what to tell her.

I really didn't know
what to tell your dad.

And on top of that,
I tried to get a cab home.

Of course,
I couldn't get one,

so I had to take the train
at midnight.

People were looking
at me with Gavin like...

someone was gonna call
Child Services.

I know you're trying
to apologize,

but that doesn't mean
it gets to be easy.

Okay, talk.

Can--?

Can we sit?

Is he down?

Finally.

[SIGHS]

Listen.

I-- I realize I need
to deal with my feelings.

When I'm scared--

Which I was in the hospital,
and I have been...

for a long time.

I get really angry.

And I know it's a way of saying,
"I can't deal with this.

Get away from me."
But that's not what I want.

It's actually
the opposite of what I want.

[BREATHES SHAKILY]

You and Gavin...

you're what I want.

[CRYING SOFTLY]

I'm sorry.

I have to go

Stubborn goat.

At least you come

[SNIFFLES]

Did you know about me...

and my sister?

Not-- Not until
very recently.

What about my mom?

Uh, when he got sick
last year,

uh, after
the first episode, he...

He started to talk

and tell me things that I wish
he'd told me a long time ago.

I mean,
someone should drink it.

No, thanks.

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

Not even beer?

Oh, do you have...?
Yeah, yeah, I'll--

I'll drink a beer
if it'll make you happy.

No, we don't have beer.

Don't do it because
it'll make me happy.

Do it because you wanna.

You don't have a beer,
and I don't want a beer, so...

So don't drink anything.

Just dehydrate.

[WHISPERS]
Sorry.

I definitely broke
the Pack 'n Play.

It just snapped
like a chicken bone.

No.

How's he doing?
He seems fine.

Yeah?
I don't know.

They don't put

in your living room
if you're fine.

Hey. Thank you

You're gonna love

It's 4 in the morning.

I don't sleep much

You don't sleep either,

I never did this with you.

Up in the middle of the night,

It's not a mom thing.

Well, you know what I mean.

You should rest.

No. Hey.

Come on, stay.

[GRUNTS]

Hey.

What?

Just grab two glasses.

I don't think

It was...

It was selfish.

And it was cruel.

Will you look at me?

I am so sorry, son.

It's not fair, you know?

I always loved you.

Why not?

It's my honeymoon.
I deserve it.

Absolutely, you do.

It's not a question
of entitlement.

You're not gonna like it.
It's a bunch of rich jerks.

And it's freezing. You're gonna
freeze to death with rich jerks.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

JERRY:
Who's here?

Ah, I'm in the right place.

Come on in.
Lloyd.

Holy crap.

Andrea.
Hi, Fred.

Such a pleasure
to finally see you.

Oh! Can I take this for you?
Oh, thank you. Yes.

Hello, Mister Rogers.

Hello.

Hello there.

Hi, Gavin. Hello.

I hope you and I
can be friends someday.

[GAVIN COOING]

Mr. Vogel.

May I call you Jerry?

Yes, sir.

You certainly may.

[LAUGHING]

[ALL CHUCKLING]

Lloyd, Joanne adored
your article, as did I.

Andrea, are you feeling
better about day care?

A little.

Maybe. Mmph.

What? You're not the only one
who talks to Fred.

Mister Rogers, is it true
you're a sharpshooter?

Uh, Navy SEAL.

No, I'm afraid not.

What the hell kind of
insane question was that?

I heard it.

[LAUGHING]

Andrea, where'd
you guys go

on your honeymoon?
Well, we eloped in Maui,

so we were kind of
already on our honeymoon.

I would've gone.
You weren't invited.

Hey. Lloyd,
he's embarrassed by us.

Eh...
JERRY: I'm kidding.

I know.

[ALL LAUGHING]

Maybe we should do
a family vacation.

What do you think
about that, Dad?

Should we dip our toes
in the ocean together?

Oh, that sounds
so nice.

Crash your honeymoon?

Uh, count me in.

If I'm still here, heh.

[SIGHS]

[CLEARS THROAT]

You know,
death is something

many of us are uncomfortable
speaking about.

But to die is to be human.

And anything human
is mentionable.

Anything mentionable
is manageable.

Anything mentionable
is manageable.

You got to send me
a copy.

Joanne will love this
when she sees it.

It'd be so much cooler
if he was in this.

[SHUTTER CLICKS]
[FRED SIGHS]

FRED: Thank you.
Thank you.

FRED:
I should get going.

I'll walk you out.

I got these.

[WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY]

Count on it.

Thank you.

[DOOR OPENS, CREAKS]

[¶¶¶]

Hey. What--?

What did you say
to Jerry?

I asked him
to pray for me.

I figure anyone who is going
through what he is going through

must be awfully
close to God.

Lloyd.
Bill.

Read the article.

And?

FRED:
¶ Sometimes people get sad ¶

¶ And they really
Do feel bad ¶

¶ But the very same people
Who are sad sometimes ¶

¶ Are the very same people
Who are glad sometimes ¶

¶ It's funny, but it's true ¶

¶ It's the same, isn't it?
For me and... ¶

¶ Sometimes people are good ¶

¶ And they do
Just what they should ¶

¶ But the very same people
Who are good sometimes ¶

¶ Are the very same people
Who are bad sometimes ¶

So maybe I could slow down
for a few months.

What do you mean?

Stay home with Gavin.

Let you go back to work without
having to worry about day care.

I want to.
Really?

You?

Gavin and I already
discussed it.

We both agree.

[TROLLEY WHISTLES]

I'm so glad I had a chance
to tell you

about my friend Lloyd
and his family.

I have a new picture
of Lloyd with his family.

Would you like to see it?

[¶¶¶]

There they are.

That's a nice picture.

It gives me a good feeling to
see them all together like that.

I hope you know that you made
today a very special day

by just your being you.

There's no one in
the whole world like you,

and I like you
just the way you are.

¶ It's such a good feeling
To know you're alive ¶

¶ It's such a happy feeling
You're growing inside ¶

¶ And when you wake up
Ready to say: ¶

¶ "I think I'll make
A snappy new day" ¶

¶ It's such a good feeling ¶

¶ A very good feeling
The feeling you know ¶

¶ That I'll be back
When the day is new ¶

¶ And I'll have
More ideas for you ¶

¶ And you'll have things
You'll want to talk about ¶

¶ I will too ¶

See you next time.

ASSISTANT DIRECTOR:

MISTER ROGERS:
¶ You can make believe
It happens ¶

¶ Or pretend
That something's true ¶

¶ You can wish or hope
Or contemplate ¶

¶ A thing you'd like to do ¶

¶ But until you start
To do it ¶

¶ You will never
See it through ¶

¶ 'Cause the make-believe
Pretending ¶

¶ Just won't do it for you ¶

¶ You've got to do it ¶

¶ Every little bit
You've got to do it ¶

¶ Do it, do it, do it ¶

¶ And when you're through ¶

¶ You can know who did it ¶

¶ For you did it ¶

¶ You did it, you did it ¶

¶ It's not easy
To keep trying ¶

¶ But it's one good way
To grow ¶

¶ It's not easy
To keep learning ¶

¶ But I know that this is so ¶

¶ When you've tried
And learned ¶

¶ You're bigger
Than you were a day ago ¶

¶ It's not easy
To keep trying ¶

¶ But it's one way to grow ¶

¶ You've got to do it ¶

¶ Every little bit ¶

¶ You've got to do it ¶

¶ Do it, do it, do it ¶

¶ And when you're through
You can know who did it ¶

¶ For you did it
You did it ¶
