Pingu and the New Scooter is the twenty-third episode of Season 6 of Pingu.
Plot[]
Everyone in the igloo is busy doing something; Pingu is playing with his toy tractor, Pinga is playing in the toy box, their mother is dusting, and their father is vacuuming. When Dad realises the cabinet for the vacuum has a box full of toys, he asks Pingu to put it up in the shed. While Pingu does this, he finds his old scooter and goes out to play on it at the skate park. When he arrives and finds Pingi and Pingo playing on ramps at the park, Pingu decides to show off his skills and breaks his scooter in the process.
As he grumpily trudges home, Pingu sees a cool scooter in a shop window. He grabs the brochure advertising it and excitedly runs home to beg his father for it. Dad agrees to buy it for him if Pingu cleans up the mess near the doorway. Pingu does this very quickly and then walks out the door to get a nasty surprise: Pingg has already bought the scooter. Pingg gloats and sneers at the remains of Pingu's broken old scooter, until Dad sternly sends him about his business. Pingu is very sad and drags his old scooter to the workshed to tear it to bits.
Dad then brings the pieces to his workbench and sets to work building Pingu is own cool scooter. Pingu is most impressed with the results and the next day shows it off to Pingg, Pingo and Pingi. Dad applauds Pingu on his tricks and the other three come over to join him. Pingg tries to do the same trick as Pingu, but only gets his own scooter stuck between the sides of the half-pipe. He then grumpily rides away while the others carry on happily playing on the ramps.
