Characters[]

Synopsis[]

After losing his favorite pillow, Lazy loses his legendary sleep and borrows Baby's teddy bear.

Summary[]

Lazy Smurf has awoken to go into the forest for his sleep. Farmer sees him and is curious why Lazy is up so early. Lazy tells him he's going to the forest to nap, which surprises Farmer and concludes that he can sleep anywhere; on chimneys, on Egghead, even at smurfball tournaments. Farmer asks Lazy what's so special about it. Lazy describes how special it is but ends up falling asleep. He wakes up for his nap, with Farmer saying Lazy could probably sleep on Gargamel's head.

Lazy is sleeping in the forest with his cozy bed and jumps from location to location to a snake to a stork. Lazy yawns, but suddenly, the pillow falls off the stork! Lazy panics about this.

Later, Lazy rings the village bell, summoning the Smurfs. Lazy informs the Smurfs about the disaster of him losing his beloved pillow. Papa Smurf is angered by this, since it's not a real emergency, but Lazy wallows and shakes Papa Smurf until he says he'll help him find the pillow. He orders Brainy, Smurfette, and Handy to help Lazy sleep until they get his pillow back.

Smurfette starts training with Lazy, saying the more tired he is, the more likely he will sleep. They run around the forest, and while Lazy is tired, he can't sleep. Eventually, Smurfette begins to get tired and falls asleep mid-training.

Brainy's attempts to hypnotize Lazy with the Hypno-Glasses do not work and make him fall asleep. His next attempt is to get the Smurf Band to sing him to sleep, albeit loudly until Brainy commands them to use light music. However, Brainy and the Smurf Band are the ones sleeping, not Lazy.

Handy's attempt to make Lazy sleep doesn't work either. The chair is a rocking chair, but Handy keeps turning it faster and faster, ending in him catapulting to the wall. Lazy sees nobody can help him sleep and he needs to find his pillow.

Meanwhile, Gargamel and Azrael play Smurf chess when Mummy barges in and tells Gargamel to stop acting like a child. Mummy throws Mr. Hugglesbottom off a cliff. Gargamel takes Azrael and follow the toy, saying they have to save it. However, they land on a bear, who chases them away.

Elsewhere in the forest, Lazy is looking for his pillow, but to no luck. He then decides to take a nap - but the now noticeable loud sounds of the forest wake him up, leaving Lazy distraught and he starts crying. Just then, Grouchy passes by with Baby in a wheelbarrow and Lazy's cries make Baby cry as well. As Baby cries, his teddy bear is dropped. Lazy tries to tell Grouchy, but he is too far. He smells Baby's teddy and likes it. He decides to sleep, finding his new replacement pillow. Just then, a lizard finds the toy and takes it. Lazy wakes up and runs after it.

In the village, Baby is still crying. Smurfette tries to comfort him, but Baby continues crying. Brainy tells her and Grouchy about why Baby is potentially crying, one of the reasons being a cuddly toy. The cuddly toy reason catches Papa Smurf's attention as he realizes it's missing. He tells the other Smurfs to search for it.

Meanwhile, Lazy continues to search for the cuddly toy, but the runaway lizard is gone and placed in between several lizard. After finding the right one, it runs away and Lazy follows it. Elsewhere, Gargamel is trying to find Mr. Hugglesbottom, though Azrael finds Lazy's pillow. He shows it to Gargamel, who calls Azrael a useless cat. He throws the pillow away.

Wild is in the forest and eats a blueberry but the pillow Gargamel threw away falls on his face. He smells it and recognizes Lazy's smell. He runs to Lazy.

Meanwhile, Lazy chases the lizard, who goes to Gargamel's face as Lazy hides. He throws the lizard away but sees that he has gotten a replacement Mr. Hugglesbottom. Lazy is shocked and quietly follows him. Wild watches from above and says the village Smurfs are completely crazy.

In Gargamel's hovel, the evil wizard conjures up a potion. As he leaves the location, Lazy leaves from Gargamel's robe and tries to get the cuddly toy, only to fall under the table. Unfortunately, the second time he tries to get up, he is spotted by Azrael, who is about to pounce on him until Lazy puts cucumbers on Azrael's eyes, leaving him blind until he falls into Gargamel's pot. Gargamel yells at Azrael for this, leaving time for Lazy to get the cuddly toy. Gargamel sees him and tries to take him, but he trips on a bottle and falls. Lazy laughs until Azrael returns, but Wild saves Lazy just in time, flinging Azrael to Gargamel and the bookshelf falls onto them. With Lazy happy with his pillow again, Wild asks what they do with the bear. Lazy tells him there's someone who would love to have it back.

Lazy and Wild return to the village, where the crying Baby is now satisfied with his cuddly toy coming back. Papa Smurf congratulates Lazy for saving the day. Lazy says it was nothing and goes back to sleep. Wild says Lazy works hard and he deserves a nap, making him and the other Smurfs laugh.
