Story:

You’re in the Super Bowl, Charlie Brown:

As Lucy prepares to pull her usual trick of pulling the ball away from Charlie Brown as he tries to kick it, Peppermint Patty, Marcie, Franklin, and Linus arrive. They inform Lucy and Charlie Brown that there will be a Punt, Pass, and Kick contest. They mention that first prize wins a new bicycle and a trip to the Super Bowl, and suggest they all enter. As they discuss the contest, Charlie Brown seeks his chance to kick the ball while Lucy is not looking—only for Lucy to blindly pull it away in perfect timing.

While Charlie Brown and Linus are practicing for the contest, they notice a very pretty girl, who catches Linus’s attention. They walk up to her and introduce themselves. The girl says her name is Melody-Melody and that has been watching them. They flirt with her and take her out for hot fudge sundaes. They then try to impress her and tell her they will be entering the punt-and-pass contest. Melody says she will be rooting for them at the contest.

At the punt-and-pass contest, Charlie Brown and Linus see Melody watching them, and they argue about who Melody came to watch. The announcer announces every player, and every player gets a better score than the next one, except for Marcie who refuses to kick the football thinking the football did nothing to deserve being kicked. Charlie Brown performs well, finishing his turn in first place, only for Linus to best him. To the dismay of both, Melody turns out to be the final contestant, whose score beats all of the others. Betrayed, Linus admits to Charlie Brown that he is in love with her. Melody wins the new bicycle and the tickets to the Super Bowl.

Later, Charlie Brown and Linus are at the wall. Linus is so upset that the girl he was in love with beat him that he says he will never trust anyone again. Charlie Brown replies “Your sister says we can’t go through life doubting everyone. We have to learn to trust each other” (echoing her bait line at the beginning of the special before pulling the football away from him). Lucy then comes to them holding a football, much to Charlie Brown’s despondence and annoyance.

Meanwhile, Snoopy coaches The Birds (a football team in Philadelphia Eagles attire consisting of Woodstock and his avian friends), as they compete in the Animal Football League playoffs. In the Eastern final against the Cats (loosely based on the Detroit Lions), Woodstock and his team manage to beat the Cats 38–0. In the league semifinal, the Birds crush the Dogs 58–0. In the World Championship, The Birds take on The Bison (a parody of the Buffalo Bills). As the game begins, Lucy comes onto the field and tells Snoopy he is a horrible coach, and his team will get crushed. But once again, The Birds crush the other team, 62–0 (again parodying Bills assistant coach Chuck Dickerson’s disparaging the Washington Redskins prior to Super Bowl XXVI), winning the championship. After each touchdown, the Birds introduce a different celebration dance, and after each win, they douse Snoopy in Chirpade—except for the championship, when Lucy is on the receiving end of the Chirpade shower.

It Was My Best Birthday Ever, Charlie Brown:

The special begins with Linus roller-skating all over town. On his way back from a birthday party, he passes by a garden where he hears someone singing (“O Mio Babbino Caro”). As he enters the garden, he learns that a little girl named Mimi is the person that was singing. After Linus and Mimi spend time gardening together, Linus invites her to his birthday party, and she accepts the invitation.

Linus keeps hearing Mimi’s singing voice everywhere he goes and can’t seem to stop thinking about her. As Linus is writing his guest list for his birthday party, Lucy asks who Mimi is. After Linus tells her, Lucy thinks that it’s ridiculous that Linus is inviting a girl that he just met and thinks Mimi will not show up, but Linus is positive that she will.

On the day of Linus’ birthday party, Linus wonders where Mimi could be. Lucy and Sally bring out Linus’ birthday cake and light the candles, and everybody starts singing “Happy Birthday” to him. Linus tries to get them to stop, but to no avail. As soon as everybody finishes singing, Linus hears Mimi singing “Happy Birthday” from outside. After Mimi finishes singing to Linus, she gives him a flower and a kiss. At first, Linus is sad when Mimi has to leave, but he later starts dancing along with everyone else.

The end of the special shows Linus talking to Charlie Brown about if he’ll ever see Mimi again and Woodstock shows up, whistling the song that Mimi sang.
