"I Like to Move It!" is the first segment of the twenty-first episode of the first season of Kiff. It is the forty-first segment overall.
Synopsis[]
Kiff and Barry agree to move a piano for Helen in exchange for a wish, but can't agree on the wish.
Plot[]
Helen sees a newspaper advertisement by her sister Agnes offering a free piano, but does not want to visit Agnes to pick up the piano because they are currently feuding. Seeing Kiff and Barry playing outside, Helen offers them one item from her "creepy junk trunk" if they pick up the piano for her. Kiff and Barry select a magical horseshoe that grants two people a single wish.
Kiff and Barry pick up the piano from Agnes' house and make their way back, both agreeing that they should wish for a trampoline. They pass through the riddling bridge and correctly answer Trollie's riddle, so he helps them carry the piano until they reach the Table Town Steps. Before leaving, he advises Kiff and Barry to reconsider their wish, as trampolines are apparently difficult to insure. Barry suggests that they should instead wish for the entire world to be bouncy, while Kiff suggests that they should wish for springs as legs; each considers the other's suggestion to be illogical. Overhearing an argument between Ben and Quinn, Kiff and Barry perform a song about getting over disagreements, but the song itself turns into a disagreement over whether socks are better suited to sandals or shoes.
Later, Kiff and Barry pass through the park. The sight of two children moving a piano using their back muscles shocks the Beefcakes in the Park club, causing them to drop their dumbbells. The dumbbells roll into a nearby pond, so Kiff and Barry let them lift the piano instead. While the club exercises, Kiff and Barry trade insults due to their disagreement over the wish. The club decides to stop their exercise to help resolve the conflict, talking to Kiff and Barry separately. However, the club's advice is misinterpreted by both Kiff and Barry, who conclude that the disagreement can be resolved if one person makes the wish before the other can.
Back in Helen's classroom, Kiff and Barry receive the horseshoe and simultaneously make their respective wishes, but nothing happens because they are not in sync. Realizing that their argument was pointless, they apologize to each other and wish that they had never delivered the piano to Helen, causing the piano to be teleported away.
