Premise

Pixel is staying up too late at night playing video games, and Sportacus encourages him to get to sleep on time, explaining that sleep is the source of his own energy. Robbie overhears this and hatches a plan to deprive Sportacus of sleep by creating a “noisy ball” that keeps him awake all night. When Sportacus starts losing energy, Stephanie and the kids uncover Robbie's plot and they make sure to get lots of sleep so they can beat Robbie in an all-or-nothing baseball game.

LazyTown at night.
So this is making all the noise!

Trivia

A timeline hole exists between this episode and Defeeted: In this episode Sportacus doesn't know how to play softball and Stephanie is teaching that to him, but in Defeeted the Mayor references the last year's Sportacular Sports Day when Sportacus did a baseball trick.
- It is possible that Sportacus did a trick with a baseball, without actually playing the game itself, just as kicking the football as he did in Defeeted requires no knowledge of the soccer rules.
- It is also possible that Sportacus knew how to play all along and is merely humoring Stephanie in this episode by letting her explain the game to him.

+Pixel is staying up too late at night playing video games, and Sportacus encourages him to get to sleep on time, explaining that sleep is the source of his own energy. Robbie overhears this and hatches a plan to deprive Sportacus of sleep by creating a “noisy ball” that keeps him awake all night.

-== Personality ==
+==Plot synopsis==
-Stingy, as his name implies, is the stingiest and greediest person in LazyTown. His catchphrase is "It's Mine!", which he says about almost everything, going as far as to having a song, [[The Mine Song]], where he claims that everything is LazyTown belongs to him. Most of the time, this is played for laughs or to the slight exasperation of his friends except in the episode '''''[[The Great Crystal Caper]]''''' where, after causing Sportacus to lose his crystal, Stingy finds and keeps it. He eventually gives it back and is deeply sorry and vows to try and do better at returning things that don't belong to him. His most prized possessions are his pink piggy-bank, simply called '''Piggy''', and his yellow toy-car, in which he can often be seen driving, or parked next to the Sports Field. Despite his greedy manner, he is a good friend who generally cares about them, and wouldn't let them down. He enjoys playing especially with his friends, but becomes hurt and angry, when he is excluded, or they don't want to play with him, as seen in '''''[[My Treehouse]]''''' when his friends exclude him from their "Friends Forever" club, on the basis that he can't work in a team (Later in the episode this is shown to be true, but he does immensely improve) he ties up the clubhouse with rope (While they are still inside!) and attempts to drag it away, he is stopped by Sportacus, who after asking him why, convinces the kids to let him join. He is very musical, with him shown on the Saxophone, Harmonica, Bass, and Recorder. He is great on roller-blades (Of which he owns many), and is quite good at soccer. He is very clean and hygienic (Owning ''many'' toothbrushes, and he even taught Ziggy how to brush his teeth!) As well as teaching the kids how important it is to clean up, and to keep everything tidy ('''''[[Trash Trouble]]''''').
+===Prologue===
-His best friend is shown to be Ziggy. At the end of '''''[[The Great Crystal Caper]]''''', [[Trixie]] kisses him.
-==Character Development==
+===Main episode===
-===Appearance===
-Of all the characters, Stingy's outfits, are the most similar to each other.
-In the first play, Stingy's outfit, consists of a yellow suit, a large black bow-tie, and black shoes. When he is next seen again, in '''''[[Glanni Glæpur í Latabæ]]''''', his outfit is almost identical to his current one, except his shirt is short-sleeved, he has short socks, and black Oxford Shoes.''
-His current outfit is, a long-sleeved button-up shirt, with small pale blue/grey lines, a daffodil yellow waistcoat, knee-length shorts in the same yellow, long white socks, dark brown loafers, a red bow-tie, with a polka-dot pattern, and cuff links. He is the only person in LazyTown besides Sportacus (Whose hair is always hidden) who has brown hair. He wears it short, with some of it being swept over to the other side.
-He is of average height, he has a circle-shaped face, with dark brown eyes, and heavy eyelids.

 ==Trivia==
-*According to '''''[[LazyTown's Greatest Hits]]''''', his favorite song is [[The Mine Song]].
+*A timeline hole exists between this episode and ''[[Defeeted]]'': In this episode Sportacus doesn't know how to play softball and Stephanie is teaching that to him, but in ''Defeeted'' the Mayor references the last year's Sportacular Sports Day when Sportacus did a baseball trick.
-*As of '''''[[School Scam]]''''', Stingy starts using glasses for reading.
+**It is possible that Sportacus did a trick with a baseball, without actually playing the game itself, just as kicking the football as he did in ''Defeeted'' requires no knowledge of the soccer rules.
-*Stingy can play [[When We Play in a Band|bass]], the [[Good Stuff|harmonica]], the [[Man on a Mission|saxophone]] and the recorder.
+**It is also possible that Sportacus knew how to play all along and is merely humoring Stephanie in this episode by letting her explain the game to him.
-*Although his motto is "Mine!", he has also disclaimed certain things, like a ladder he finds in '''''[[Sportafake]]''''' ("Hey, what's this doing here? It's mine. Well, no, but it might be my father's.") and Robbie's Robodog in '''''[[LazyTown's New Superhero]]''''' ("That dog is not mine!").
