Gargamel attempts to catch the Smurfs using Madame Trilbee's magic flute that makes everyone who's asleep sleepwalking.

Plot Summary[]

The story starts off with Scaredy trying to reach for a high smurfberry. Gargamel sees this and begins to watch him. Scaredy, who used Gargamel's foot to retrieve the smurfberry, finally acknowledge that he is there. Scaredy then runs to escape from Gargamel. He runs into the other Smurfs, who all run with him. Gargamel accidentally then runs into his own trap he made for the Smurfs. Afterwards, they decide to go back to the village and tell Papa Smurf.

Gargamel then decides that he needs Madame Trilbee to help him, but she despises him and everything that he does and is known for. Gargamel returns back to his hovel, trying to find a fake ruby he can use to bribe Madame Trilbee. Gargamel and Azrael arrive at Madame Trilbee's Hut. She opens the door and shuts it immediately. Gargamel tells her that he has a ruby, so she decides to listen to what he has to say. He says if she helps him capture the Smurfs, she can have the ruby. She gives him a magical flute that can have people sleepwalk to the person who is playing the flute.

That night while the Smurfs are asleep, Gargamel decides to use the flute. It works as it caused Painter to sleepwalk out of his house, as well as the other Smurfs and theirs. Handy and Smurfette end up getting into Painter's paint; Smurfette's foot becomes yellow and Handy's face becomes red. As they wake up, they find their houses into a mess; Smurfette's flowers were ruined, and Papa Smurf's lab has an explosion go off. Painter is confronted by Smurfette and Handy because they are unhappy to have their body parts painted in their sleep. Papa Smurf quiets them down by saying there is a reasonable explanation to all the commotion.

Gargamel, who turned up Smurfless, goes back to Madame Trilbee, saying that she gave him a fake flute. She responds that he just needs practice.

Back at the village, Painter is quarreling with Handy and Smurfette about his paint. He ends by deciding to go to the forest and paint. Gargamel spots him and captures him. Handy and Smurfette follow him into the forest wanting to teach him a lesson. Gargamel plays the flute again. He sounds so terribly; the two Smurfs mistake him for Harmony. Gargamel then captures them.

Later that night, Gargamel plays his flute again, which causes the Smurfs to sleepwalk again. Papa Smurf wakes them up by using Harmony's trumpet. He gathers a rescue party to find Painter, Handy, and Smurfette. Unfortunately for Gargamel, who has fallen asleep, Madame Trilbee finds out the ruby is fake and uses the flute to have him sleepwalk into trees, teaching him a lesson. The Smurfs rescue the three Smurfs and Papa Smurf says that the flute is music to his ears.

  • At the end of the episode, Handy's eyes are colored red, but they were white for most of the episode, even after being covered in paint.
