Summary[]

"Groundhog Day" is played. Jack, Mary, and Mel hear a breaking news intro from the music machine. Brunk Stinegrouber is outside, about to deliver the news on whether the groundhog will see her shadow. Gertrude doesn't come out of her stump, however. She runs into the clubhouse, hiding from Brunk. She explains that she is nervous and shy and is, therefore, afraid of crowds and noises. Brunk Steingrouber then enters, asking Jack and Mary if they have seen the groundhog. Gertrude quickly pops up, saying, "no," and Brunk Steingrouber leaves. Gertrude sighs in relief. Jack tells Gertrude that she must go back outside for Groundhog Day. Gertrude says that Groundhog Day will have to go on without her. "I Hog The Ground" is played. Mary looks out the window at the clubhouse, telling Gertrude that Brunk Steingrouber is still looking for her. Gertrude flies up, knocking Mary down. Jack comes over, telling Gertrude that she needs to go outside. Gertrude then rushes to the music machine, telling Jack and Mary that she has hired someone to take her place, which is Mel. Brunk can tell that Mel is not a groundhog. Mel does things a dog would do during this scene, sniffing and barking. Gertrude needs to go outside and deliver the weather. The Schwartzman Quartet enters, singing, "When Will Spring Be Sprung?". Gertrude joins them, then once The Schwartzman Quartet leaves, she leaves the clubhouse. Paparazzi are outside the clubhouse waiting for Gertrude. Gertrude sees the paparazzi and runs back in. "I Had A Friend" is played. Back at the clubhouse, Brunk Steingrouber is interviewing Jack and Mary. Jack and Mary tell Brunk Steingrouber that Gertrude The Groundhog is nervous and shy. Brunk then leaves. Jack and Mary think of how to get Gertrude to no longer be nervous and shy. They have the idea that music can help. At the back of the clubhouse, Jack tells Gertrude that he was once nervous and shy, too: on his first day of preschool. "First Day of Preschool" is played. After the song, Gertrude is no longer nervous and shy. She thanks Jack, Mary, and Mel for helping her. Finally, Gertrude delivers the weather. Gertrude doesn't see her shadow, meaning Spring is coming soon.
