[edit] Opening Presents

Miss Yvonne gets perfume called Siren of the Sea from Captain Carl. Captain Carl gets a 3 sleeve sweater made by Mrs. Steve. She said,"I made it myself." Captain Carl replies,"No kidding!" Cowboy Curtis gets new spurs from Tito. Tito gets new flippers from Globey. Pee-Wee is looking for his present and can't seem to find it, so he puts on a Penny cartoon. After that,the Salesman comes over and Pee-Wee finally accepts the "incredible" offer. It was free foil, which Pee-Wee puts the final touch on his giant foil ball. He offers the Salesman some punch. (So the moral is that if someone keeps bothering you, give them what they want and they will go away!) This is because the Salesman is never seen again in the show. Anyway, after that, Pee-Wee sits down and goes into one of his cry-baby moods and says,"Everybody got a present but me!" Why are you complaining Pee-Wee? Conky didn't get one either!

[edit] A New Friend

This is Pee-Wee's present which Miss Yvonne said was from everyone. He only said,"Hey Pee-Wee!" Pee-Wee says,"He said my name! He said my name!!" He also calls him a new friend but is never seen or mentioned on the show again.

[edit] Trivia

The female genie is played by Rosemary Sykes.
It's curious that Pee-wee complains about not getting any presents, because he receives an incredible offer from the Salesman - a piece of foil for his foil ball.
The playhouse is remodeled the next episode, and Dixie, Captain Carl et al are dropped.
This is the only episode in which Pee-wee talks to the Salesman.
