The museum director's son wants to turn it into a parking lot, but Ted offers to bring back a mysterious idol from Africa that's guaranteed to pull in crowds. Unfortunately, the idol turns out to be three inches tall. But Ted accidentally brings back a lonely yet irrepressible monkey, soon dubbed George.

George wakes up on a windy day in the country. His friend Bill introduces him to a kite, which George wants to fly. However, Bill must go home and George cannot play with the kite until he returns. His curiosity gets the best of him and he soon finds himself flying around the countryside, even taking his friend Jumpy Squirrel with him. This is the pilot episode for the series.

On their way to the museum, the Man with the Yellow Hat and George discover that Gnocchi the cat has been accused of scratching the booths in Chef Pisghetti's restaurant. George isn't sure that it was Gnocchi and sets out to solve the mystery. George uses reasoning to find out that the scratches he had seen on the booths were not like scratches he had seen Gnocchi make on the door and he uses pieces of food to measure the length and depth of the scratches.

George has found himself a new friend in the city, Compass. One of the Doorman's homing pigeons which he keeps on the roof of the apartment building. But the only thing is, Compass has a bad sense of direction. So when the Man says George is not allowed to let pigeons inside the apartment, George decides to build Compass a new home on the balcony outside their apartment, eventually deciding on a tree. But soon George finds out building a tree is not as easy as it seems. Where do trees in nature come from if people don't make them?

George and Bill are then left soaring across the country sky and have no clue how to stop and land.

George is in the country eating a sandwich when he sees a strange-looking animal stealing his food! After trying to scare it away he winds up getting sprayed with a stinky fluid. The Man tells George that the animal he met was a skunk and that they spray to defend themselves. Bill finds the skunk to be living under his front porch and seals up its home. That leaves the skunk to nestle in the basket George and the Man brought to the country and they wind up accidentally bringing it home to the city.

The Renkins' are having a problem with their grape yard. A group of gophers have made their home in the ground under the garden and are stealing the grapes. Upset with the problem, Mr. Renkins calls Calhoun the Gopher-getter, an exterminator, to come and catch the gophers. George does not like the idea of somebody catching the innocent gophers, even if he does plan to release them again. So he decides to build a connecting tunnel between his house and the Renkins' garden so the gophers can escape.

George and the Man with the Yellow Hat are having a blast on their research assignment in the Antarctic!

The Man finds George, and they chase the sea otter by jumping ice floes...and discover too late that a blizzard is approaching! George and the Man find refuge in a cave. When the blizzard passes, they emerge on the other side of the island in the middle of the Chinstrap penguins' nesting ground! Mission accomplished!

George and the Man with the Yellow hat are lending a hand picking apples at Renkins' Farm, George takes an apple coveted by Jumpy Squirrel, who snatches it back and hides in the barn. George follows, and when he reaches for the light switch, accidentally turns on the giant cider press! All of the apples they've collected are being washed, chopped, and squished into liquid! Not wanting the Renkins to be mad with the sticky mess, George fills everything he can get his hands on with the apple juice squirting out of the machine. When the Man with the Yellow Hat and Renkins' arrive, they're astonished to see the entire harvest bottled up! Much to George's relief, the Renkins aren't upset — they're thrilled.

But George can't seem to figure out how to teach Bill unable to speak. That's when he decides that maybe, if a map can tell you how to get someplace, maybe he can make one to tell Bill and the others who also want to dance.

When he tries the library and they manage to lay a few eggs, he figures out what to do. All he needs to do is soundproof the chicken coop.
