Recap / Lazy Town S 4 E 4 New Kid In Town

Go To

LazyTown is having a stone festival where participants lift the heaviest rocks they can. After a failed attempt to teach Ziggy that lollipops and candy give you energy, Robbie is called out and told not to lie again, with Stephanie comparing him to Pinocchio. Inspired, Robbie brings Pinocchio to life out of a pop-up book to lie in his stead, and while he promises to send him back home he secretly plots to bury the book under a huge rock not even Sportacus could lift. It's up to Sportacus and the kids to set things right with the truth!


This episode contains examples of:

  • Call-Back: The objects-to-life machine was used in several previous episodes to bring toys and pictures to life.
  • Lying Finger Cross: Robbie crosses his fingers behind his back when he promises to never lie again.
  • Power-Up Food: With the help of sportscandy, Sportacus is able to lift the giant rock he couldn't before.
  • Refugee from TV Land: Robbie brings Pinnochio from a book into LazyTown's world using an objects-to-life machine. He promises Pinnochio that he can go back to his book if he tells lies for Robbie.
  • Trapped in Villainy: Pinocchio just wants to get back to his book and doesn't necessarily want to lie to the kids, but if he doesn't Robbie will never send him home.
