Rainy Day is a Season 1 episode in The Mr. Men Show.
Synopsis[]
It's a rainy day in Dillydale, and the bad weather is putting some of the Mr. Men and Little Misses in a bad mood. A leaky roof gets the better of Mr. Per(s)nickety and his wool sofa and Mr. Nervous' daydream leaves him drenched - yet the storm can't dissuade Mr. Stubborn from picnicing with Mr. Bump.
Plots[]
- Mr. Bump and Mr. Stubborn's Plot: Mr. Stubborn wants Mr. Bump to go on a picnic in the park, but Mr. Bump tells Mr. Stubborn that he cancelled the picnic because it was raining. Of course, Mr. Stubborn kept saying it wasn't raining.
- Mr. Nervous's Plot: Mr. Nervous imagines he's sent into an ark but is really trying to catch Mr. Rude's bus.
- Mr. Lazy's Plot (US version only): Mr. Lazy is too lazy to clean his teeth. So he decides to use his toothbrush machine that runs on water.
- Mr. Scatterbrain's Plot: Mr. Scatterbrain buys an umbrella from Miss Helpful, but gets blown in a sewer pipe that took him to the beach.
- Musical number: "Rain On Down" by Little Miss Calamity (Little Miss Helpful in the dub).
- Mr. Fussy and Mr. Strong's Plot: Mr. Strong tries to fix Mr. Fussy's leaking roof before it ruins Mr. Fussy's wool sofa.
Bumpers[]
Mr. Quiet is waiting to cross the street with his umbrella on a rainy day.
- He has trouble with his umbrella which folds out very far, then fills up with rainwater and unfolds, dumping the water onto him!

- The wind blows off the umbrella's cover, with the umbrella rotating like a helicopter blade (Only in the US version).

Trivia[]

- Mr. Strong's video on the now-defunct official website originated from this episode.
- Mr. Nervous's plot is a reference to the Biblical story of Noah's Ark.
- In "Rain On Down", scenes from "Parade", "Inventions", "Jobs", and "Music" are reused.
- This is Sarah Rudolph Payan's favourite episode.
- This marks the last time where Mr. Rude wakes up Mr. Nervous from his daydream.
Dub edits[]
- Mr. Stubborn refers to Go Fish by its British name, Happy Families.
- Mr. Stubborn says "There it is! I win!", a line that was never present in the original.
- "Rain On Down" is sung by Miss Helpful rather that Miss Calamity,
Goofs[]
- When Mr. Strong breaks part of the roof, he sees Mr. Fussy who is on the first floor. Mr. Fussy's house has two floors and maybe a basement and an attic. (Mr. Messy has a basement shown in Washing and Drying and an attic shown in Pests.)
