Neighbor Roy

"We're getting a new neighbor, and they have a bunch of cool stuff."

- Ginger

 is the first episode of Season 5 and the 130th episode of Talking Tom and Friends overall.

Tom and his friends visit the Museum of Coolness to see a new statue which has been created to honour Tom for his coolness, only to discover that it’s been replaced with a new statue of someone named Roy, who is apparently cooler than Tom. A jealous Tom, and his friends, return home to find out that Roy is moving into their neighbourhood. Tom makes a pie for Roy to sarcastically prove that he is cooler, when Roy meets them with rare and expensive presents and a giant pie for Tom, and invites them to his housewarming party. At the party, Tom becomes angry when the crowd gives full attention to Roy and Roy calls Angela to sing as he plays the piano, when Ginger calls him to the games room. Tom gets lost in the hallway, however, and enters a different room where he finds blueprints of the museum, a crown and another room, when Angela and Roy him. Roy explains the crown's presence by saying that he has a passion for collecting antiques and wishes to get something from out of the world, but Tom gets suspicious on seeing the blueprints. Tom returns home, and finds burglary gear and a Space Conflicts costume delivered to his house meant for Roy, which was delivered to his place by mistake, and concludes that Roy is going to steal a ruby that fell from space. Tom hides in the museum, wearing the costume and gear, and catches Roy about to steal the ruby, but accidentally triggers the alarm, and Roy runs away. Tom gives chase, and catches Roy, and takes him to the museum in front of the staff, public and Tom’s friends, but Roy explains that he wanted to give the crown as an anonymous contribution to the museum, and that by "out of the world", he meant the Space Conflicts costume, and the public boos Tom, but Roy defends him. Later, the friends watch the news covering Roy’s donation and how Tom ruined the surprise, and comfort Tom, when Roy arrives, apologises to Tom and makes amends, and then pulls him aside and reveals that he is really a criminal.

The episode begins with the gang in the museum talking about how Tom will have his own statue due to being so cool but they then find out that he was replaced by another guy called Roy. Tom is angered and goes home disappointed. Ginger then tells the gang that a new neighbor was moving in and it was none other than Roy.

Tom tells the gang how he will welcome Roy with a pie and that Roy will think Tom is cooler than him. Roy then comes at the same time and gives the gang gifts. Roy then tells them he had researched about the gang and invites them to his party.

At the party, Roy plays the piano and lets Angela sing with him. Ginger pulls Tom over to a game room but Tom gets lost and goes into a secret room and finds blueprints of the museum and an antique crown. Angela sees him and Roy comes in after her, explaining that he collects antique things like the crown. He takes Angela back and Tom flicks over a chess piece that looked like Roy, which opened a secret door. Angela calls him to come back up so he puts the piece upright and goes home.

Tom explains the gang about the secret door but they do not think it was a big deal. Hank comes in and tells Tom about a package that was delivered but none of them had ordered it. It was an outfit of Star Bandit from Space Conflicts. Tom realizes Roy was using it as burglary gear and he was going to steal the space ruby but the gang think he was only upset over the statue. Tom lies, saying he would return the suit to Roy but he actually puts it on and tries to stop Roy from stealing the ruby.

Tom catches Roy red-handed at the museum and explaining, Tom picks up the ruby without thinking and sets off an alarm. Roy runs away and Tom chases after him, soon Tom gets his grappling hook in a mess and catches Roy.

Tom brings a tied-up Roy into the museum and tells everyone that Roy was trying to steal the space ruby, but Roy said he was misunderstood; he was bringing one of his artifacts to the museum and wanted it to be anonymous. Tom tells him how Roy was going to bring something "out of this world" and implied it was the ruby but Roy said he was talking about the costume from Space Conflicts he bought, the one that Tom was wearing. The crowd all boo Tom but Roy tells the crowd not to be mad because they had a concerned citizen. The crowd cheers weakly.

The gang watch the news, recalling what had happened and Angela tries to reassure him but she makes the matter worse. There was a knock at the door, it was Roy. He wanted to make sure there were no hard feelings and he wanted to be friends but then he reveals nobody will believe Tom now that the crowd thinks he had spoiled everything. Tom realizes he was right the entire time and they growl at each other.
