The Children's Corner: Episode 4096Broadcast Date: Undetermined
Despite the flower in Josie’s hair, Daniel prefers her regular hair and Josie uses further instructions from Lady Elaine to “ungrow” the red hair. She turns around three times, bobs up and down and says “Hookin McGookin, go to town” while Daniel closes his eyes. When he opens them, Josie has removed the wig and Daniel is relieved to find her to returned to her regular appearance. When Daniel suggests growing red curls of his own, Josie reveals that she was only wearing a wig and the instructions from Lady Elaine were only pretend. When she attempts to surprise X and Henrietta by wearing the wig, Josie finds that X likes her new look but Henrietta is less approving. When Josie reveals that she in only wearing a wig, X tells her that he complimented her because he was afraid it really was her hair and didn’t want to say anything bad about it. He admits that he prefers Josie natural hair afterall. Josie welcomes the Mason Marionettes to the Children’s Corner as Ted and Jean Mason use their marionettes to perform a variation of the Nutcracker. After the performance, Josie visits Lady Elaine Fairchilde who has just returned from Hawaii to see how her hair growth recipe has worked for Josie. Lady Elaine has walked all the way back – using the heel-toe method, swimming when she came to the water – which took her three and half hours due to poor wind conditions. Lady Elaine agrees to wear the wig when she returns to Hawaii noting that “when [she is] so beautiful, anything to make [her] more so is, of course, a spark of ingenuity.” Josie closes the visit by singing Goodnight God and the So Long Song.
