How can we be

00:01:21,966 --> 00:01:23,699
The children need
a story, a new story.

8
00:01:23,701 --> 00:01:25,836
A new story!
How exciting!

00:01:25,838 --> 00:01:27,872

We are them!

[Barney] You are the fearless word
hunters that travel the universe

14

in search of unique plots

That's us.

We seek comedies,

and a few hefty clues.

How can we help?

29
00:02:12,719 --> 00:02:14,887
[Barney] The children
need a new story.

30
00:02:14,889 --> 00:02:16,522
Let's find one.

31
00:02:16,524 --> 00:02:17,825
Do the children
have any ideas?

32
00:02:22,129 --> 00:02:25,197
I was flying through the Enchanted
Forest, hunting for my dinner,

33
00:02:25,199 --> 00:02:26,833
when a boy called to me.

34
00:02:26,835 --> 00:02:28,467
I hear owls are very wise

35
00:02:28,469 --> 00:02:31,102
and can find anything
in the universe.

36
00:02:31,104 --> 00:02:32,103
Is that true?

37
00:02:32,105 --> 00:02:33,472
Is it true?

38
00:02:33,474 --> 00:02:35,507
Why, yes!
Then, the boy said...

39
00:02:35,509 --> 00:02:38,846
The children need a new story.
Can you find Horse Play?

40
00:02:38,848 --> 00:02:40,680
Horse Play?
Is that a game?

41
00:02:40,682 --> 00:02:43,650

heard of Horse Play?

42
00:02:43,652 --> 00:02:46,853
Why, they are the only super-duper

That's us!

45
00:02:49,224 --> 00:02:51,525
I promised the boy
I would find you.

46
00:02:51,527 --> 00:02:53,960
As I was about to fly away,
the boy yelled after me.

47
00:02:53,962 --> 00:02:55,496
When you find Horse Play,

48
00:02:55,498 --> 00:02:59,132
tell them the children would like the
story to begin on the Isle of Flowers.

49
00:02:59,134 --> 00:03:02,903
The Isle of Flowers, a fine
choice to begin a story.

50
00:03:02,905 --> 00:03:06,608
Lush landscape filled
with field after field

51
00:03:06,610 --> 00:03:09,009
of beautiful,
colorful flowers.

52
00:03:09,011 --> 00:03:10,580
[shushing]
Quiet!

53
00:03:12,114 --> 00:03:14,014
I think I'm being followed.

54
00:03:14,016 --> 00:03:16,084
So, the story begins.

55
00:03:16,086 --> 00:03:18,887
Once upon a time,
there was an owl.

56
00:03:18,889 --> 00:03:21,055
- What's your name?
- Barney Owl.

57
00:03:21,057 --> 00:03:23,624
Once upon a time, there
was an owl named Barney.

58
00:03:23,626 --> 00:03:24,960
I'm in the story!

59
00:03:24,962 --> 00:03:26,928
Of course!
You begin the story

60
00:03:26,930 --> 00:03:30,099
when you talk to the boy
with brown hair and freckles.

61
00:03:30,101 --> 00:03:33,301
Barney Owl was flying
through the Enchanted Forest

62
00:03:33,303 --> 00:03:36,639
when a boy with brown hair
and freckles called out to him.

63
00:03:36,641 --> 00:03:38,073
I heard owls
are very wise

64
00:03:38,075 --> 00:03:40,276
and can find anything
in the universe.

65
00:03:40,278 --> 00:03:41,476
Is that true?

66
00:03:41,478 --> 00:03:44,813
When Barney told the boy that,
yes, owls are very clever,

67
00:03:44,815 --> 00:03:45,948
the boy said...

68
00:03:45,950 --> 00:03:49,219
The children need a new story.
Can you find Horse Play?

69
00:03:49,221 --> 00:03:51,620
"Is that a game?"
Barney asked the boy.

70
00:03:51,622 --> 00:03:54,256
[laughing] No!

71
00:03:54,258 --> 00:03:57,861
Horse Play is the only super-duper
story delivery service

72
00:03:57,863 --> 00:03:59,261
in the entire universe.

73
00:03:59,263 --> 00:04:01,096
The children will
love that beginning.

74
00:04:01,098 --> 00:04:02,499
Please continue.

75
00:04:02,501 --> 00:04:05,969
The children wanted the new story
to begin on the Isle of Flowers,

76
00:04:05,971 --> 00:04:11,675
a magical land filled with field after
field of sweet-smelling blossoms.

77
00:04:11,677 --> 00:04:14,178
[hooting]
This is getting good.

78
00:04:14,180 --> 00:04:15,011
Please continue.

79
00:04:15,013 --> 00:04:18,749
The Isle of Flowers
is a tiny island

80
00:04:18,751 --> 00:04:22,253
floating in the middle
of a blue ocean.

81
00:04:22,255 --> 00:04:24,355
It's home to the most
beautiful honey bees.

82
00:04:24,357 --> 00:04:25,956
Excellent description.

83
00:04:25,958 --> 00:04:28,859
If I close my eyes,
I can see the Isle of Flowers.

84
00:04:28,861 --> 00:04:29,927
Please continue.

85
00:04:29,929 --> 00:04:31,227
That's all I have.

86
00:04:31,229 --> 00:04:34,097
[hooting] That's it?
It can't be!

87
00:04:34,099 --> 00:04:37,034
A story has a beginning,
a middle, and an end.

88
00:04:37,036 --> 00:04:39,070
There's a good guy,
and a bad guy,

89
00:04:39,072 --> 00:04:41,973
adventure, intrigue,
and excitement.

90
00:04:41,975 --> 00:04:43,909
You're right.
To continue the story,

91
00:04:43,911 --> 00:04:47,012
Axel and I must fly at once
to the Isle of Flowers.

92
00:04:47,014 --> 00:04:49,313
Yeah, I'm sure we'll find
more of the story there.

93
00:04:49,315 --> 00:04:51,716
Everyone has a piece
of the plot, you know.

94
00:04:51,718 --> 00:04:53,019
Plot?

95
00:04:53,021 --> 00:04:56,120
The main events that happen in a
story, what the story is about.

96
00:04:56,122 --> 00:04:58,156
How do you find new stories?

97
00:04:58,158 --> 00:04:59,926
Are they hatched like an egg?

98
00:04:59,928 --> 00:05:01,861
Buried underground
like treasure?

99
00:05:01,863 --> 00:05:04,063
Do you take a pill,
drink a magic potion?

100
00:05:04,065 --> 00:05:07,400
[laughing]
It is a kind of magic!

101
00:05:07,402 --> 00:05:10,369
We gather plot pieces,
sew them together,

102
00:05:10,371 --> 00:05:14,039
and voila, a new story
for the children is born.

103
00:05:14,041 --> 00:05:15,174
Sounds exciting!

104
00:05:15,176 --> 00:05:17,876
It is!
Off we go!

105
00:05:17,878 --> 00:05:19,647
To the Isle of Flowers!

106
00:05:20,914 --> 00:05:23,116
A horse and an airplane,
what a sight!

107
00:05:23,118 --> 00:05:26,220
They fly in the day.
They fly through the night.

108
00:05:26,222 --> 00:05:28,389
Axel the airplane
steers the course

109
00:05:28,391 --> 00:05:31,190
for his partner and
passenger, Scout the horse.

110
00:05:31,192 --> 00:05:33,060
Horse Play is
their business name.

111
00:05:33,062 --> 00:05:37,033
Finding super-duper stories
is their claim to fame.

112
00:05:45,708 --> 00:05:47,243
[upbeat music playing]

113
00:05:51,815 --> 00:05:53,847
I think Barney
the owl was right.

114
00:05:53,849 --> 00:05:55,015
We're being followed.

115
00:05:55,017 --> 00:05:56,685
Let's add that to the story.

116
00:05:56,687 --> 00:05:58,952
It will keep
the children interested.

117
00:05:58,954 --> 00:06:00,955
Yes, the boy will ask,

118
00:06:00,957 --> 00:06:03,058
"Who was following
Axel and Scout?"

119
00:06:03,060 --> 00:06:05,260
It will keep him wondering
what will happen next.

120
00:06:05,262 --> 00:06:07,395
[Victor]
Chatty, little Barney Owl.

121
00:06:07,397 --> 00:06:08,729
Too chatty.

122
00:06:08,731 --> 00:06:11,132
Victor the vulture?

123
00:06:11,134 --> 00:06:14,170
You only appear when
something smells bad.

124

If it isn't Scout,

do-gooder tin can sidekick, Axel.

up troublesome storylines?

00:06:34,191 --> 00:06:36,760
Of course, I'm a vulture.

132
00:06:36,762 --> 00:06:37,863
[hissing] Yes.

133
00:06:39,165 --> 00:06:43,800
Now, tell me. What did that old
owl, Barney, ask you to do?

134
00:06:43,802 --> 00:06:46,435
[hissing]
Never mind.

135
00:06:46,437 --> 00:06:49,238
I'll find out what you're
up to soon enough.

136
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,976
Now, fly away before I stick
a feather in your engine.

Honey.

Mmm. My favorite subject!

about your honey?

Only that it's the sweetest,

- [Axel] Oh, no!
- Oh, yes!

161
00:08:12,227 --> 00:08:15,362
My bee friends and
family had to buzz away

00:08:15,364 --> 00:08:16,896
and find a new home.

163
00:08:16,898 --> 00:08:18,566
That's just plumb awful.

Yep, one of them furry, striped varmints
found its way right into our hive.

had something to do with this.

You mean that vulture?

173
00:08:41,358 --> 00:08:44,192
He's been circling,
flapping his wings.

174
00:08:44,194 --> 00:08:46,595
Hmm. Don't he ever get tired?

Them vultures can stay
in the air for hours.

Why would a vulture
bother us bees?

177
00:08:51,901 --> 00:08:53,601
He's become part of the story.

178
00:08:53,603 --> 00:08:58,240
A new story! Ooh!
What do you have so far?

179
00:08:58,242 --> 00:09:02,344
Once upon a time, Barney Owl was
flying over the Enchanted Forest

180
00:09:02,346 --> 00:09:06,616
when a boy with brown hair and
freckles asked him to find Horse Play.

181
00:09:06,618 --> 00:09:07,684
That's you.

182
00:09:07,686 --> 00:09:10,285
The boy said, "The
children need a new story.

183
00:09:10,287 --> 00:09:12,088
Can you find Horse Play?"

184
00:09:12,090 --> 00:09:14,991
He also told Barney the children
wanted the story to begin

185
00:09:14,993 --> 00:09:17,425
at the Isle of Flowers.

186
00:09:17,427 --> 00:09:20,396
That's why you're here!
Please, continue.

187
00:09:20,398 --> 00:09:25,135
The Isle of Flowers is a tiny land
floating in the middle of the ocean.

188
00:09:25,137 --> 00:09:28,405
It's a land filled
with field after field

189
00:09:28,407 --> 00:09:31,440
of beautiful,
colorful flowers.

190
00:09:31,442 --> 00:09:34,076
Excellent description
of my tiny home.

191
00:09:34,078 --> 00:09:37,647
Bees love living
on the Isle of Flowers.

192
00:09:37,649 --> 00:09:40,483
They buzz around
day after day,

193
00:09:40,485 --> 00:09:41,919
pollinating beautiful fields,

194
00:09:41,921 --> 00:09:47,392
so everyone can enjoy red, yellow,
and blue sweet-smelling blossoms.

195
00:09:47,394 --> 00:09:52,363
Don't forget orange, green,
and my favorite color, pink.

196
00:09:52,365 --> 00:09:55,365
One fine day, the story
continues, a vulture...

197
00:09:55,367 --> 00:09:56,367
Victor!

198
00:09:56,369 --> 00:09:59,671
A pesky vulture named
Victor talked a skunk

199
00:09:59,673 --> 00:10:02,306
into knocking over all the
bee hives on the island.

200
00:10:02,308 --> 00:10:04,609
- Why'd he do that?
- We're not sure.

201
00:10:04,611 --> 00:10:07,577
We haven't discovered
that part of the story yet.

202
00:10:07,579 --> 00:10:08,979
It's a mystery!

203
00:10:08,981 --> 00:10:13,118
Broken beehives forced many of the
bees to fly away from the island,

204
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,620
but one special bee remained,

205
00:10:15,622 --> 00:10:16,654
Bella Bee.

206
00:10:16,656 --> 00:10:17,755
That's me!

207
00:10:17,757 --> 00:10:22,061
Bella Bee buzzes around
the Isle of Flowers singing,

208
00:10:22,063 --> 00:10:25,129
her voice as sweet
and silky as her honey.

209
00:10:25,131 --> 00:10:27,666
[giggling]
Aw! Shucks!

210
00:10:27,668 --> 00:10:29,668

218
00:10:53,161 --> 00:10:58,497
anyone who hears it
falls into a deep sleep.

219
00:10:58,499 --> 00:11:02,435
While they're asleep,
Bella Bee performs magic.

220
00:11:02,437 --> 00:11:03,603
Oh, my!

221
00:11:03,605 --> 00:11:05,740
[whispering]
Bella Bee has a secret.

222
00:11:05,742 --> 00:11:07,675
I do love secrets.

223
00:11:07,677 --> 00:11:10,410
Bella Bee spins honey into gold.

224
00:11:10,412 --> 00:11:11,511
That's fantastic!

225
00:11:11,513 --> 00:11:14,180
The children will love
a story about a singing bee

226
00:11:14,182 --> 00:11:16,183
who spins honey into gold.

227
00:11:16,185 --> 00:11:18,486
Yeah, but wait just a second!

228
00:11:18,488 --> 00:11:22,256
You go spreading a story about
me spinning honey into gold,

229
00:11:22,258 --> 00:11:24,725
and this entire island
will be overrun

230
00:11:24,727 --> 00:11:27,295
with greedy gold-diggers.

231
00:11:27,297 --> 00:11:29,097
You have a better idea?

232
00:11:29,099 --> 00:11:30,498
Hmm.

233
00:11:30,500 --> 00:11:31,501
I do!

234
00:11:32,568 --> 00:11:34,268
Why don't y'all go
to Lava Land?

235
00:11:34,270 --> 00:11:36,304
Lava Land,
an empty planet

236
00:11:36,306 --> 00:11:39,507
with fiery volcanoes
constantly erupting,

237
00:11:39,509 --> 00:11:42,044
spewing ash
and hot, molten rock.

238
00:11:42,046 --> 00:11:44,445
Fiery and hot,
but not empty.

239
00:11:44,447 --> 00:11:47,517
Nog the Hog, the mighty
dragon chaser, lives there.

240
00:11:47,519 --> 00:11:50,052
Oh, children love dragons.

241
00:11:50,054 --> 00:11:51,454
I suppose a visit
to Lava Land

242
00:11:51,456 --> 00:11:53,623
could move the story along
quite nicely.

243
00:11:53,625 --> 00:11:55,358
Bella Bee did not want the story

244
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,293
to be about her spinning
honey into gold.

245
00:11:58,295 --> 00:12:02,364
She said there was a much better
story to find on Lava Land,

246
00:12:02,366 --> 00:12:04,433
home of the three, fat hogs,

247
00:12:04,435 --> 00:12:08,539
one of them known
as the "Dragon Chaser."

248
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:14,445
The children will love, love,
love their new story.

254
00:12:35,368 --> 00:12:39,404
Scout, Axel, I have
some exciting dialogue

255
00:12:39,406 --> 00:12:43,140
to add to your
super-duper story.

256
00:12:43,142 --> 00:12:44,576
Oink the flying pig!

257
00:12:44,578 --> 00:12:46,410
Children love pigs!

258
00:12:46,412 --> 00:12:48,379
Especially flying pigs!

259
00:12:48,381 --> 00:12:51,815
And superheroes!
See my red cape?

260
00:12:51,817 --> 00:12:54,785
After visiting Bella Bee
on the Isle of Flowers,

261
00:12:54,787 --> 00:12:57,822
Scout and Axel fly through
the sky towards Lava Land.

262
00:12:57,824 --> 00:13:00,159
Suddenly, they see Oink,

263
00:13:00,161 --> 00:13:02,460
the flying pig,

264
00:13:02,462 --> 00:13:05,164
a superhero wearing
a bright red cape.

265
00:13:05,166 --> 00:13:07,366
I'm so glad I found you.

266
00:13:07,368 --> 00:13:10,569
You know, "dialogue" is
when characters in a story

267
00:13:10,571 --> 00:13:13,338
talk or have
a conversation.

268
00:13:13,340 --> 00:13:16,308
Children love a good story
with good dialogue.

269
00:13:16,310 --> 00:13:20,346
Well, I have some very
important information

270
00:13:20,348 --> 00:13:23,382
to share about
Victor the vulture.

271
00:13:23,384 --> 00:13:26,353
Oh, goody! We do need
to learn more about Victor.

272
00:13:26,355 --> 00:13:32,325
I know why Victor the vulture
destroyed the beehives.

273
00:13:32,327 --> 00:13:33,792
He's following you.

274
00:13:33,794 --> 00:13:37,931
Character development
is so important for a story.

275
00:13:37,933 --> 00:13:41,801
Victor the vulture
does not want you

276
00:13:41,803 --> 00:13:44,738
to find the children
a new story.

277
00:13:44,740 --> 00:13:46,373
He flies around the universe

278
00:13:46,375 --> 00:13:50,344
searching for sad,
unfinished stories to eat.

279
00:13:50,346 --> 00:13:52,812
He hates happy endings.

280
00:13:52,814 --> 00:13:56,249
He will do anything
to stop them from happening.

281
00:13:56,251 --> 00:13:59,519
That is a very important part
of this story.

282
00:13:59,521 --> 00:14:01,922
Oink the flying pig,
a superhero,

283
00:14:01,924 --> 00:14:03,691
known for
solving mysteries,

284
00:14:03,693 --> 00:14:05,927
and saving animals
throughout the universe,

285
00:14:05,929 --> 00:14:10,263
joins Axel and Scout
as they fly towards Lava Land.

286
00:14:10,265 --> 00:14:14,669
[laughing] Oh, goody!
I made it into the new story!

287
00:14:14,671 --> 00:14:16,737
I'm so excited!
[laughing] [snorts]

288
00:14:16,739 --> 00:14:22,343
Oh, but did you say you were
flying towards Lava land?

289
00:14:22,345 --> 00:14:23,678
Why, yes!

290
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,782
That's a very dangerous planet!

291
00:14:26,784 --> 00:14:28,784
[Axel] Your cousins
live there, don't they?

292
00:14:28,786 --> 00:14:33,590
Do you know the story
of the three, fat hogs?

293
00:14:35,259 --> 00:14:37,860
Is that the same
as the three little pigs?

294
00:14:37,862 --> 00:14:41,764
Does that story have
a fire-breathing dragon?

295
00:14:41,766 --> 00:14:42,765
I don't think so.

296
00:14:42,767 --> 00:14:46,635
Well, then talk to the
hogs on Lava Land.

297
00:14:46,637 --> 00:14:49,405
I'll keep an eye
on Victor for you.

298

Be safe and beware!

299
00:14:54,412 --> 00:14:58,648
Oink tells Axel and Scout that
Victor is following them around,

300
00:14:58,650 --> 00:15:02,018
because he eats bad,
unfinished stories

301
00:15:02,020 --> 00:15:04,354
and hates happy endings.

302
00:15:04,356 --> 00:15:07,891
"Be safe and beware," Oink shouts
before flying off into the clouds.

303
00:15:07,893 --> 00:15:11,694
Scout, we can't let Victor stop
us from finishing the story.

304
00:15:11,696 --> 00:15:13,363

is a hot, fiery planet.

309
00:15:32,885 --> 00:15:36,354
Volcanoes constantly spew
smoky, burning, molten rock

310
00:15:36,356 --> 00:15:39,623
which covers just about everything
on the planet, except...

311
00:15:39,625 --> 00:15:42,926
Look, Scout,
it's the three fat hogs.

312
00:15:42,928 --> 00:15:46,730

is a dragon chaser.

Where is your dragon?

317
00:15:55,575 --> 00:15:56,642
Can I tell the story?

318
00:15:56,644 --> 00:16:00,879
[snorting] No, let me tell it.
I wanna tell it.

319
00:16:00,881 --> 00:16:03,648
I'll tell the story.

320
00:16:03,650 --> 00:16:04,783
[clearing throat]

321
00:16:04,785 --> 00:16:07,519
It all started
when me and my brothers,

322
00:16:07,521 --> 00:16:10,656
Fog the hog and Log the hog,

323
00:16:10,658 --> 00:16:12,793
heard about a contest
on Lava Land.

324
00:16:12,795 --> 00:16:15,028
What sort of contest?

325
00:16:15,030 --> 00:16:19,598
A contest to build the strongest
house in the universe,

326
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,967
a house that could
withstand fire...

327
00:16:21,969 --> 00:16:24,104
- Lava.
- Lightning.

328
00:16:24,106 --> 00:16:27,407
- Meteor strikes!
- Rain!

329
00:16:27,409 --> 00:16:31,812
Any house can stand a bit of rain, Fog.
[laughing and snorting]

330
00:16:31,814 --> 00:16:36,616
Since my brothers and I have built
houses all over the universe...

331
00:16:36,618 --> 00:16:38,051
We are very good builders.

332
00:16:38,053 --> 00:16:42,457
Some of my houses have been featured
in "Universal Homes Illustrated."

333
00:16:42,459 --> 00:16:46,093
I built the Mall
at the Top of the World.

334
00:16:46,095 --> 00:16:48,529
Very impressive.

335
00:16:48,531 --> 00:16:50,430
To get back to the story,

336
00:16:50,432 --> 00:16:53,067
thousands of contestants
arrived on Lava Land

337
00:16:53,069 --> 00:16:54,769
to compete in the contest.

338
00:16:54,771 --> 00:16:57,405
- Including us.
- Obviously!

339
00:16:57,407 --> 00:17:00,409
We had two months
to build a house.

340
00:17:00,411 --> 00:17:02,946
Then the real contest began.

341
00:17:04,447 --> 00:17:09,451
Two weeks later, only three
houses remained standing,

342
00:17:09,453 --> 00:17:10,886
ours.

343
00:17:10,888 --> 00:17:15,791
What happened
to the other 2,997 houses?

344
00:17:15,793 --> 00:17:18,527
Once a day,
we never knew when,

345
00:17:18,529 --> 00:17:21,996
a fiery dragon
reared its head

346
00:17:21,998 --> 00:17:24,434
out of the volcano
right behind me.

347
00:17:24,436 --> 00:17:26,970
A fiery dragon?
Oh, no!

348
00:17:26,972 --> 00:17:30,572
Oh, yes! A fiery dragon
leapt out of the volcano,

349
00:17:30,574 --> 00:17:32,609
aimed his fiery breath
at a house, and...

350
00:17:32,611 --> 00:17:36,780
[inhaling] Whoosh!
The building was set on fire.

351
00:17:36,782 --> 00:17:41,050
Some houses melted.
Others burned to the ground.

352
00:17:41,052 --> 00:17:42,551

00:17:42,553 --> 00:17:44,620

- [Nog] Oh, yes!

354
00:17:44,622 --> 00:17:48,859
Only our three houses were
left standing, my house.

A story with a moral!

A housing-building contest
on the remote planet Lava Land

437
00:21:59,321 --> 00:22:02,222
attracted 3,000 entries.

438
00:22:02,224 --> 00:22:06,092
Every day, a dragon leapt
out of a fiery volcano,

439
00:22:06,094 --> 00:22:08,928
breathing fire on each
of the houses built.

440
00:22:08,930 --> 00:22:12,867
After several days,
only three houses remained.

to one of the three, fat hogs.

What's a moral?

The moral of a story
is meant to teach a lesson.

It often has a message
of right and wrong, good or bad.

Nog the hog won the contest.

446

He built the strongest house
in the universe.

447
00:22:32,421 --> 00:22:35,858
He won because he was smart
and wasn't lazy.

No matter how hard
the dragon tried,

he could not burn down
Nog's house of bricks.

two big, old front teeth,

694
00:34:56,797 --> 00:34:59,232
a long set of whiskers,

695
00:34:59,234 --> 00:35:01,933
and a growling stomach.

696
00:35:01,935 --> 00:35:04,604
[Dumpty Donkey] This
here is Clack the rat,

697
00:35:04,606 --> 00:35:05,872
a nickname he got,

698
00:35:05,874 --> 00:35:11,576
'cause he makes this real loud
clacking sound with his teeth

699
00:35:11,578 --> 00:35:14,247
when he gets nervous.

700
00:35:14,249 --> 00:35:18,551
This second friend in this
unlikely trio is Hopper,

701
00:35:18,553 --> 00:35:20,218
a wide-eyed frog

702
00:35:20,220 --> 00:35:23,789
with long, thin arms

703
00:35:23,791 --> 00:35:26,462
and a mile-wide smile.

704
00:35:27,862 --> 00:35:30,931
The third friend is
a rather smart horse,

705
00:35:30,933 --> 00:35:35,536
who, come to think of it,
looks a lot like you, Scout.

706
00:35:35,538 --> 00:35:38,074
Only his name is Harry.

707
00:35:39,775 --> 00:35:42,543
Food was getting scarce
on their side of the river,

708
00:35:42,545 --> 00:35:46,981
and day after day,
these three unlikely friends

709
00:35:46,983 --> 00:35:49,816
dreamed about crossing
to the other side

710
00:35:49,818 --> 00:35:52,653
where delicious fruit
and berries grew

711
00:35:52,655 --> 00:35:56,256
on green, grassy slopes,

712
00:35:56,258 --> 00:35:57,991
but they knew if they tried,

713
00:35:57,993 --> 00:36:03,231
Grump Alligator would jump
out of the water and eat them.

714
00:36:03,233 --> 00:36:05,667
Eat them? Oh, no!

715
00:36:05,669 --> 00:36:07,571
Oh, yes!

716
00:36:08,604 --> 00:36:13,174
So, the three friends huddled
behind a big, old tree

717
00:36:13,176 --> 00:36:16,679
with long, hanging branches

718
00:36:16,681 --> 00:36:18,850
so Grumpy couldn't see them.

719
00:36:19,784 --> 00:36:24,920
One summer evening,
there was a huge storm.

720
00:36:24,922 --> 00:36:27,355
Thunder, and lightning,

721
00:36:27,357 --> 00:36:29,991
strong winds, and heavy rain.

722
00:36:29,993 --> 00:36:35,798
A bolt of lightning struck near the
weeping willow and lit the three friends.

723
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:40,169
Exposed, they cringed in fear,

724
00:36:40,171 --> 00:36:44,039
thinking Grumpy would climb
onto the riverbank and eat them.

725
00:36:44,041 --> 00:36:48,313
But instead, it was Grumpy
that cringed in fear.

726
00:36:50,115 --> 00:36:53,316
[groaning]
Lightning!

727
00:36:53,318 --> 00:36:56,952
The dark sky!
Oh, it can't be!

728
00:36:56,954 --> 00:37:00,924
A very scary storm
coming after me!

729
00:37:00,926 --> 00:37:03,994
The next evening,
as the sky grew dark,

730
00:37:03,996 --> 00:37:08,031
another storm rumbled
on the horizon,

731
00:37:08,033 --> 00:37:11,234
and the friends hatched a plan.

732
00:37:11,236 --> 00:37:16,139
[Clack] Grumpy Gator, Grumpy
Gator, I know you're there.

733
00:37:16,141 --> 00:37:19,909
If you let me cross the river,
I'll save you from a scare.

734
00:37:19,911 --> 00:37:23,148
[laughing]

735
00:37:23,150 --> 00:37:24,816
How can you,

736
00:37:24,818 --> 00:37:26,385
a wee, little rat,

737
00:37:26,387 --> 00:37:31,889
save me,
a big, fat alligator?

738
00:37:31,891 --> 00:37:35,160
There's going to be
a lot more lightning tonight.

739
00:37:35,162 --> 00:37:38,063
If you let me pass to the
other side of the river,

740
00:37:38,065 --> 00:37:41,166
I will use my very loud
clacking teeth

741
00:37:41,168 --> 00:37:44,202
to scare away the storm.
[clacking]

742
00:37:44,204 --> 00:37:49,676
That is a very loud,
annoying sound.

743
00:37:49,678 --> 00:37:52,245
Does it really
scare away lightning?

744
00:37:52,247 --> 00:37:53,980
It does.

745
00:37:53,982 --> 00:37:56,348
If you let me pass to the
other side of the river,

746
00:37:56,350 --> 00:37:58,718
I will save you.

747
00:37:58,720 --> 00:38:00,953
Then, Clack, you rat,

748
00:38:00,955 --> 00:38:02,754
I will let you pass.

749
00:38:02,756 --> 00:38:05,857
[chuckling]
But when the skies clear,

750
00:38:05,859 --> 00:38:09,728
I will eat you really fast.

751
00:38:09,730 --> 00:38:11,231
As the storm grew closer,

752
00:38:11,233 --> 00:38:14,300
Hopper Frog leapt
to the riverbank.

753
00:38:14,302 --> 00:38:17,438
Grumpy Gator, Grump
Gator, come up for air.

754
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:20,840
Let me hop across the river,
and I'll save you from a scare.

755
00:38:20,842 --> 00:38:23,776
Grumpy Gator surfaces
from the water

756
00:38:23,778 --> 00:38:28,284
where he was trying to hide
from the incoming storm.

757
00:38:29,851 --> 00:38:33,487
How can you, a skinny,
silly frog, save me,

758
00:38:33,489 --> 00:38:37,024
a big, fat alligator,

759
00:38:37,026 --> 00:38:39,127
from a lightning storm?

760
00:38:39,129 --> 00:38:44,031
Hopper From sprang off the rock,
leapt above Grumpy's head.

761
00:38:44,033 --> 00:38:47,401
I'm a very special frog
who can jump really high.

762
00:38:47,403 --> 00:38:50,971
I'll snatch those lightning rods
right out of the sky.

763
00:38:50,973 --> 00:38:56,143
Help me, skinny frog, and I
will let you pass. [chuckling]

764
00:38:56,145 --> 00:39:01,784
But tomorrow, I'll sneak out of
the river and eat you in a flash.

765
00:39:01,786 --> 00:39:04,253
Hopper Frog croaks,

766
00:39:04,255 --> 00:39:06,155
hops from rock to rock,

767
00:39:06,157 --> 00:39:09,728
crosses the river,
and reaches the other side.

768
00:39:11,195 --> 00:39:14,028
As the storm blows in,

769
00:39:14,030 --> 00:39:16,364
lightning flashes
across the sky.

770
00:39:16,366 --> 00:39:20,902
As Grumpy cringes, Harry the
Horse trots to the river bank.

771
00:39:20,904 --> 00:39:24,207
Grumpy Gator,
Grumpy Gator,

772
00:39:24,209 --> 00:39:26,343
swim on over here.

773
00:39:26,345 --> 00:39:29,178
I'm a big, healthy horse

774
00:39:29,180 --> 00:39:32,982
who can help you
with your fears.

775
00:39:32,984 --> 00:39:35,919
How can you, a...

776
00:39:35,921 --> 00:39:39,022
delicious-looking,

777
00:39:39,024 --> 00:39:41,323
tasty horse...
[chuckling]

778
00:39:41,325 --> 00:39:43,963
help me get over my fears?

779
00:39:44,863 --> 00:39:48,465
Grumpy Gator was so hungry

780
00:39:48,467 --> 00:39:51,001
he forgot about
the rat and frog,

781
00:39:51,003 --> 00:39:52,969
slipped back
into the water,

782
00:39:52,971 --> 00:39:55,907
and swam towards
Harry Horse,

783
00:39:55,909 --> 00:39:58,909
dreaming about
the satisfying meal

784
00:39:58,911 --> 00:40:01,179
he was about to eat.

785
00:40:01,181 --> 00:40:03,346
But before he could
reach the shore,

786
00:40:03,348 --> 00:40:07,018
a huge crack of thunder

787
00:40:07,020 --> 00:40:09,052
rattled his scales.

788
00:40:09,054 --> 00:40:12,291
Grumpy shook with fear.

789
00:40:12,293 --> 00:40:17,428
Chase the lightning away,
and I will let you go.

790
00:40:17,430 --> 00:40:20,432
But tomorrow, I will eat you...

791
00:40:20,434 --> 00:40:22,334
[chuckling]

792
00:40:22,336 --> 00:40:25,336
nice and slow.

793
00:40:25,338 --> 00:40:29,474
But Harry did not offer
to scare the lightning away.

794
00:40:29,476 --> 00:40:32,077
He did not try
to cross the river.

795
00:40:32,079 --> 00:40:35,248
Instead, he held his head high

796
00:40:35,250 --> 00:40:37,920
and waited for the
next lightning strike.

797
00:40:38,853 --> 00:40:42,087
Grumpy Gator,
alligator,

798
00:40:42,089 --> 00:40:45,592
scales so fast and strong,

799
00:40:45,594 --> 00:40:49,996
swim to me,
my tasty dinner.

800
00:40:49,998 --> 00:40:51,864
Don't keep me waiting long.

801
00:40:51,866 --> 00:40:55,335
[laughing]

802
00:40:55,337 --> 00:40:59,240
Grumpy Gator was so scared,

803
00:40:59,242 --> 00:41:01,941
he swam fast and far

804
00:41:01,943 --> 00:41:06,412
and was never seen
or heard from again.

805
00:41:06,414 --> 00:41:10,885
And the three friends
were able to cross the river,

806
00:41:10,887 --> 00:41:14,287
back and forth,
and up and down

807
00:41:14,289 --> 00:41:17,023
whenever, wherever
they wanted,

808
00:41:17,025 --> 00:41:21,028
and they lived
happily ever after.

809
00:41:21,030 --> 00:41:23,665
The children will love
that story. [laughing]

810
00:41:23,667 --> 00:41:25,933
It's kind of like
a scary fable,

811
00:41:25,935 --> 00:41:30,105
folk tale, and adventure
all rolled into one.

812
00:41:30,107 --> 00:41:33,040
I'm so glad I could take you

813
00:41:33,042 --> 00:41:36,011
to the middle of the
children's new story.

814
00:41:36,013 --> 00:41:38,145
Is it the middle
of the story already?

815
00:41:38,147 --> 00:41:40,147
Time to see the mermaid!

816
00:41:40,149 --> 00:41:43,685
Cassandra the mermaid
who lives beneath the sea?

817
00:41:43,687 --> 00:41:44,620
[Axel]
That's the one.

818
00:41:44,622 --> 00:41:49,224
She always grants us
three story wishes.

819
00:41:49,226 --> 00:41:52,394
Can't wait to hear them.
Good luck!

- What's that sound?

825
00:42:06,443 --> 00:42:09,512
It's Victor. He's eating
the edited part of our story.

826
00:42:09,514 --> 00:42:11,681
[Axel]
The part about Sounder Rabbit?

827
00:42:11,683 --> 00:42:13,183
He's so noisy.

828
00:42:13,185 --> 00:42:16,185
Vultures are very noisy
when they eat.

829
00:42:16,187 --> 00:42:18,721
After Axel and Scout
visited the farm fields

830
00:42:18,723 --> 00:42:23,326
to solve the mystery of Farmer
McAdoo's missing vegetables,

831
00:42:23,328 --> 00:42:26,462
they learned Sounder
Rabbit lied to them.

832
00:42:26,464 --> 00:42:29,232
He was the one
who stole the vegetables.

833
00:42:29,234 --> 00:42:31,167
This led to a story edit

834
00:42:31,169 --> 00:42:35,440
where Victor Vulture with his
assistant, Stunt the airplane,

835
00:42:35,442 --> 00:42:38,342
ripped the chapter out of
the children's new story.

836
00:42:38,344 --> 00:42:39,577
It was upsetting,

837
00:42:39,579 --> 00:42:42,012
but it had to be done.

838
00:42:42,014 --> 00:42:45,182
Dumpty Donkey told them
a scary story

839
00:42:45,184 --> 00:42:48,152
about a hungry rat,
frog, and horse

840
00:42:48,154 --> 00:42:50,554
who tricked a grumpy alligator

841
00:42:50,556 --> 00:42:54,157
into letting them cross
a wide river,

842
00:42:54,159 --> 00:42:58,162
so they could eat the fruit
and grass on the other side.

843
00:42:58,164 --> 00:43:02,734
Everyone lived happily ever after.
[chuckles]

844
00:43:02,736 --> 00:43:03,970
Now, Horse Play...

845
00:43:03,972 --> 00:43:07,740
The only super-duper story
service in the entire universe,

846
00:43:07,742 --> 00:43:11,743
must dive into the ocean,
swim beneath the sea,

847
00:43:11,745 --> 00:43:13,611
and find Cassandra
the mermaid,

848
00:43:13,613 --> 00:43:16,714
who can grant them
three story wishes.

849
00:43:16,716 --> 00:43:18,350
Ready, Scout?

850
00:43:18,352 --> 00:43:19,386
Ready.

851
00:43:28,362 --> 00:43:29,498
[splashing]

852
00:43:33,235 --> 00:43:37,103
I forgot how beautiful
it is down here.

853
00:43:37,105 --> 00:43:40,239
Axel and Scout
sail through the water,

854
00:43:40,241 --> 00:43:42,541
admiring the fish and coral,

855
00:43:42,543 --> 00:43:44,543
while searching for
Cassandra the mermaid,

856
00:43:44,545 --> 00:43:47,751
who can grant them
three story wishes.

857
00:43:50,385 --> 00:43:53,287
[Cassandra] A tale spun
here, a tale spun there.

858
00:43:53,289 --> 00:43:55,455
Story treasures everywhere.

859
00:43:55,457 --> 00:43:59,727
Mermaids call up from the deep
memories the sea doth keep.

860
00:43:59,729 --> 00:44:03,097
Axel and Scout, what
brings you to the sea?

861
00:44:03,099 --> 00:44:04,298
The children.

862
00:44:04,300 --> 00:44:06,499
We were hoping you would
grant us three story wishes.

863
00:44:06,501 --> 00:44:10,105
Come closer, my friends,
and I'll tell you three tales.

864
00:44:10,107 --> 00:44:15,143
So, close your eyes and
imagine a hen and a hare.

865
00:44:15,145 --> 00:44:18,279
Once upon a time, there was
a hen named Henrietta.

866
00:44:18,281 --> 00:44:21,817
She was the chattiest,
friendliest animal on the farm.

867
00:44:21,819 --> 00:44:25,619
She hosted birthday parties,
always helped animals in need.

868
00:44:25,621 --> 00:44:29,090
Every morning,
she sang the same song.

869
00:44:29,092 --> 00:44:33,094
♪ Gather round,
my farm friends ♪

870
00:44:33,096 --> 00:44:35,832
♪ Feathered,
fleeced, or furred ♪

871
00:44:35,834 --> 00:44:39,401
♪ Come, one
Come, all to celebrate ♪

872
00:44:39,403 --> 00:44:42,306
♪ Our super-happy herd ♪

873
00:44:43,307 --> 00:44:45,774
Yes, everyone loved Henrietta.

874
00:44:45,776 --> 00:44:48,244
Everyone except...

875
00:44:48,246 --> 00:44:50,278
Harvey Hare.

876
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,814
Harvey was an old,
grouchy, long-eared rabbit

877
00:44:52,816 --> 00:44:55,184
who lived in a hole
near the chicken coop.

878
00:44:55,186 --> 00:44:57,654
He had lost all his
family years ago

879
00:44:57,656 --> 00:45:01,324
and had become quite selfish
and downright unsociable.

880
00:45:01,326 --> 00:45:06,163
He hated hearing Henrietta Hen cluck
laughing with the other farm animals.

881
00:45:06,165 --> 00:45:09,232
He couldn't stand her sunny,
friendly disposition.

882
00:45:09,234 --> 00:45:13,303
He would pop out of his hole whenever
there was a party and yell...

883
00:45:13,305 --> 00:45:17,507
Keep away from my hole,
you noisy, scrappy hen!

884
00:45:17,509 --> 00:45:20,643
Your constant clucking
hurts my ears.

885
00:45:20,645 --> 00:45:22,646
Your coop, I want to rend.

886
00:45:22,648 --> 00:45:26,483
One day, Harvey Hare awoke
to the sound of laughter,

887
00:45:26,485 --> 00:45:29,586
and decided he had to do something
about it once and for all.

888
00:45:29,588 --> 00:45:33,590
He jumped out of his hole, and
hopped in front of Henrietta Hen.

889
00:45:33,592 --> 00:45:35,726
I challenge you to a race.

890
00:45:35,728 --> 00:45:39,264
If I win, you have to move
to the other side of the farm.

891
00:45:39,266 --> 00:45:41,798
If you win, I'll dig a
hole near the road,

892
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:42,869
and you'll never see me again.

893
00:45:44,271 --> 00:45:46,272
Henrietta Hen was shocked.

894
00:45:46,274 --> 00:45:50,209
She had no idea
Harvey Hare was so angry.

895
00:45:50,211 --> 00:45:53,379
I'll race you
on one condition.

896
00:45:53,381 --> 00:45:55,247
If I win,

897
00:45:55,249 --> 00:46:00,419
you have to promise to attend all
my parties and social events

898
00:46:00,421 --> 00:46:03,189
for one full year.

899
00:46:03,191 --> 00:46:06,658
[grunting]
Okay, you're on.

900
00:46:06,660 --> 00:46:08,761
We race from here to the road.

901
00:46:08,763 --> 00:46:12,965
Now, everyone knows that a hen can't
possibly run as fast as a hare.

902
00:46:12,967 --> 00:46:16,570
Still, Henrietta, always
positive, didn't listen

903
00:46:16,572 --> 00:46:19,606
to the other animals who said
she had no chance of winning.

904
00:46:19,608 --> 00:46:22,374
I'm one of your closest friends.

905
00:46:22,376 --> 00:46:26,246
Please call off the race.
You can't possible win.

906
00:46:26,248 --> 00:46:29,648
Where will you move?
Where will you go?

907
00:46:29,650 --> 00:46:31,517
But Henrietta wouldn't listen.

908
00:46:31,519 --> 00:46:33,186
News spread fast.

909
00:46:33,188 --> 00:46:37,160
And on the day of the race, all the farm
animals gathered around the chicken coop.

910
00:46:37,859 --> 00:46:39,794
Harvey Hare took off in a shot,

911
00:46:39,796 --> 00:46:42,395
leaving poor Henrietta
covered in dust.

912
00:46:42,397 --> 00:46:46,299
Still, she kept on strutting,
egged on by the other animals,

913
00:46:46,301 --> 00:46:49,405
her skinny, chicken legs moving
as fast as they could.

914
00:46:50,606 --> 00:46:53,307
Harvey Hare ran
at a comfortable pace.

915
00:46:53,309 --> 00:46:56,276
Halfway to the road,
he reached a fish pond.

916
00:46:56,278 --> 00:46:59,816
Thirsty, he bent over to lap some
water and caught his reflection.

917
00:47:01,451 --> 00:47:03,585
Could that face really be mine?

918
00:47:03,587 --> 00:47:06,320
Is this what happens over time?

919
00:47:06,322 --> 00:47:07,788
Who is that sad, scowling hare?

920
00:47:07,790 --> 00:47:11,228
Is it me, that creature
with a mad, angry stare?

921
00:47:12,295 --> 00:47:16,565
Mesmerized by his image,
Harvey grew sad, then tired.

922
00:47:16,567 --> 00:47:19,367
And before long,
he fell asleep.

923
00:47:19,369 --> 00:47:21,370
Henrietta was getting tired.

924
00:47:21,372 --> 00:47:23,406
She clucked
to keep herself awake.

925
00:47:23,408 --> 00:47:26,709
Cheered on by her farm friends,
she kept on going.

926
00:47:26,711 --> 00:47:29,011
Oh, no! Did I fall asleep?

927
00:47:29,013 --> 00:47:32,582
Harvey Hare woke to hear
the farm animals cheering.

928
00:47:32,584 --> 00:47:35,785
He hopped as fast as his strong,
rabbit legs could carry him

929
00:47:35,787 --> 00:47:40,289
in time to see Henrietta Hen
about to cross the finish line.

930
00:47:40,291 --> 00:47:42,792
In one big leap,
he tried to catch her,

931
00:47:42,794 --> 00:47:46,063
but it was too late.
Henrietta won.

932
00:47:46,065 --> 00:47:49,565
The next day, Henrietta Hen
approached Harvey Hare.

933
00:47:49,567 --> 00:47:54,637
I know you promised to come to my parties
for a year if you lost the race,

934
00:47:54,639 --> 00:47:57,875
but I won't hold you to it.

935
00:47:57,877 --> 00:48:01,911
Just come to one
party just once.

936
00:48:01,913 --> 00:48:05,616
Harvey Hare, taken aback
by Henrietta Hen's kind offer,

937
00:48:05,618 --> 00:48:08,351
reluctantly attended
the next farm party.

938
00:48:08,353 --> 00:48:10,021
And guess what?
He liked it.

939
00:48:10,023 --> 00:48:11,189
It took quite a few months,

940
00:48:11,191 --> 00:48:14,591
but slowly, he came to know
a lot of the farm animals,

941
00:48:14,593 --> 00:48:17,461
and he was never lonely again.

942
00:48:17,463 --> 00:48:20,564
The children like when
stories have a happy ending.

943
00:48:20,566 --> 00:48:21,865
So do I.

944
00:48:21,867 --> 00:48:23,100
Can you tell us another?

945
00:48:23,102 --> 00:48:24,501
Let me think.

946
00:48:24,503 --> 00:48:26,706
Have I told you
about the cow and the bull?

947
00:48:28,842 --> 00:48:32,644
[lowing]
I'm sick of having to struggle

948
00:48:32,646 --> 00:48:35,848
to find a bit of grass.

949
00:48:35,850 --> 00:48:38,984
I'm hungry.

950
00:48:38,986 --> 00:48:40,886
I need more to eat.

951
00:48:40,888 --> 00:48:44,357
The grass is always
hard to find this time of year.

952
00:48:44,359 --> 00:48:48,694
Another month or two, the ground will
warm, the spring rains will come,

953
00:48:48,696 --> 00:48:51,697
and a lush field of grass
will grow beneath our feet.

954
00:48:51,699 --> 00:48:55,768
Every year, you say that,

955
00:48:55,770 --> 00:48:58,472
but it's not true.

956
00:48:58,474 --> 00:49:03,642
The last few years,
our meadow has been dry.

957
00:49:03,644 --> 00:49:08,148
We're running out
of grass to eat.

958
00:49:08,150 --> 00:49:10,717
The next day, Toughie
awoke with an idea.

959
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:14,887
He told Pearl to walk to the edge of
the meadow, climb the steep hillside,

960
00:49:14,889 --> 00:49:17,124
and venture through
the dark forest.

961
00:49:17,126 --> 00:49:20,626
Beyond the forest lies a farm.

962
00:49:20,628 --> 00:49:25,966
I'm sure the farmer there
will trade your milk for seeds.

963
00:49:25,968 --> 00:49:28,469
We will plant those seeds

964
00:49:28,471 --> 00:49:32,607
and grow more grass.

965
00:49:32,609 --> 00:49:34,442
Reluctantly, Pearl agreed.

966
00:49:34,444 --> 00:49:37,645
She walked and walked until she
reached the edge of the meadow.

967
00:49:37,647 --> 00:49:39,781
Wearily, she climbed
the hillside

968
00:49:39,783 --> 00:49:42,116
and looked back
over her beloved meadow.

969
00:49:42,118 --> 00:49:44,118
In the distance,
she could see Toughie,

970
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:47,488
his huge bull body moving
through the dry field.

971
00:49:47,490 --> 00:49:50,425
Sighing, she continued
to walk into the forest.

972
00:49:50,427 --> 00:49:53,128
The woods were dark,
and she grew afraid.

973
00:49:53,130 --> 00:49:56,532
But Pearl knew she couldn't return
to the meadow without seeds,

974
00:49:56,534 --> 00:49:57,900
so she kept on going.

975
00:49:57,902 --> 00:50:01,936
In the distance, she saw a goat
grazing in a rich field of grass.

976
00:50:01,938 --> 00:50:06,008
Oh, my! What a beautiful field
of grass to graze in!

977
00:50:06,010 --> 00:50:07,642
Sure is!

978
00:50:07,644 --> 00:50:10,013
Name is Nicky.
Help yourself.

979
00:50:10,015 --> 00:50:12,582
Pearl was so hungry
from her journey

980
00:50:12,584 --> 00:50:15,051
she happily joined the goat
for a nice meal.

981
00:50:15,053 --> 00:50:17,790
Between bites,
she told Nicky her problem.

982
00:50:18,890 --> 00:50:21,124
No need to find the farmer.

983
00:50:21,126 --> 00:50:25,928
I'll trade you some milk
for some magical seeds.

984
00:50:25,930 --> 00:50:28,698
Magical seeds?

985
00:50:28,700 --> 00:50:30,600
Powerful magic!

986
00:50:30,602 --> 00:50:35,706
Plant two of these seeds, and
you'll soon have a blanket of grass

987
00:50:35,708 --> 00:50:38,775
like the one you're standing on.

988
00:50:38,777 --> 00:50:40,110
[Nick laughing]

989
00:50:40,112 --> 00:50:46,150
Plenty for you and a big bull
like Toughie to eat for months.

990
00:50:46,152 --> 00:50:47,851
But beware!

991
00:50:47,853 --> 00:50:53,157
Do not plant more than
two seeds at one time.

992
00:50:53,159 --> 00:50:58,263
This grass is very magical
and grows very fast.

993
00:50:58,265 --> 00:51:00,564
Pearl traded her milk
for 10 seeds

994
00:51:00,566 --> 00:51:02,700
and walked back
through the forest,

995
00:51:02,702 --> 00:51:06,937
down the hillside, across the meadow
until finally reaching Toughie.

996
00:51:06,939 --> 00:51:09,508
Exhausted, she told him what
had happened.

997
00:51:09,510 --> 00:51:13,178
Impatient, he scratched at the
small sack the goat had given her.

998
00:51:13,180 --> 00:51:17,249
Patience, Toughie! We can only
plant two seeds at a time.

999
00:51:17,251 --> 00:51:20,051
Okay! Don't have a cow fit!

1000
00:51:20,053 --> 00:51:23,655
Give me two seeds.

1001
00:51:23,657 --> 00:51:26,958
Toughie tossed the seeds
on the ground.

1002
00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:28,828
The next morning,
Pearl and Toughie awoke

1003
00:51:28,830 --> 00:51:31,596
to find short, stubby patches
of grass covering the meadow.

1004
00:51:31,598 --> 00:51:34,634
Toughie nibbled a few bites,
growled, unsatisfied.

1005
00:51:34,636 --> 00:51:37,904
What kind of magic is this?

1006
00:51:37,906 --> 00:51:40,907
You were fooled, hoodwinked.

1007
00:51:40,909 --> 00:51:43,643
Two seeds are not enough.

1008
00:51:43,645 --> 00:51:45,745
The next day,
Pearl and Toughie awoke

1009
00:51:45,747 --> 00:51:48,814
to a blanket of
beautiful, green grass.

1010
00:51:48,816 --> 00:51:52,586
See? I told you.

1011
00:51:52,588 --> 00:51:54,657
[munching]

1012
00:52:02,030 --> 00:52:04,097
Mmm!

1013
00:52:04,099 --> 00:52:10,138
Delicious!

1014
00:52:10,140 --> 00:52:13,641
Toughie ripped the new blades of grass
out of the ground and ate and ate.

1015
00:52:13,643 --> 00:52:15,009
Then he ate some more.

1016
00:52:15,011 --> 00:52:16,777
Pearl joined him hesitantly.

1017
00:52:16,779 --> 00:52:19,246
Relieved when the day ended,
and nothing had happened.

1018
00:52:19,248 --> 00:52:22,951
The following day, they awoke to
find an even thicker field of grass

1019
00:52:22,953 --> 00:52:24,585
that tickled their hooves.

1020
00:52:24,587 --> 00:52:27,221
Toughie and Pearl enjoyed
the day grazing.

1021
00:52:27,223 --> 00:52:31,092
Toughie ate, and ate,
and ate, happily munching,

1022
00:52:31,094 --> 00:52:33,762
and then he ate some more.

1023
00:52:33,764 --> 00:52:38,099
On the third day, they awoke to
find the grass had grown even more.

1024
00:52:38,101 --> 00:52:39,767
Now, it was
as high as their knees.

1025
00:52:39,769 --> 00:52:41,970
What did I tell you, Pearl?

1026
00:52:41,972 --> 00:52:47,108
Look at all this grass.

1027
00:52:47,110 --> 00:52:49,677
The grass is growing
too fast, Toughie.

1028
00:52:49,679 --> 00:52:51,613
We should have listened
to Nicky the goat.

1029
00:52:51,615 --> 00:52:53,782
We planted too many
seeds at once.

1030
00:52:53,784 --> 00:52:56,017
Let's leave the meadow
and find another field.

1031
00:52:56,019 --> 00:52:58,087
The grass there
might not be sparse,

1032
00:52:58,089 --> 00:52:59,922
but come spring...

1033
00:52:59,924 --> 00:53:02,826
[mooing]

1034
00:53:02,828 --> 00:53:07,330
Nonsense!
I'm not going anywhere!

1035
00:53:07,332 --> 00:53:13,303
The grass is tall,
and lush, and yummy.

1036
00:53:13,305 --> 00:53:15,170
[chuckling]

1037
00:53:15,172 --> 00:53:17,774
Stop worrying and enjoy it.

1038
00:53:17,776 --> 00:53:19,908
But Pearl could
not stop worrying,

1039
00:53:19,910 --> 00:53:21,912
and Toughie could
not stop eating.

1040
00:53:21,914 --> 00:53:25,715
He ate, and ate, and ate,
and then he ate some more.

1041
00:53:25,717 --> 00:53:27,952
No matter how much he ate,

1042
00:53:27,954 --> 00:53:31,287
every day, they awoke to find
the grass had grown taller.

1043
00:53:31,289 --> 00:53:33,657
In one day, the grass
grew to their shoulders.

1044
00:53:33,659 --> 00:53:36,994
The next day, the blades of
grass reached their mouths.

1045
00:53:36,996 --> 00:53:38,295
Pearl was alarmed.

1046
00:53:38,297 --> 00:53:41,097
She begged Toughie
to move to another field,

1047
00:53:41,099 --> 00:53:42,666
but Toughie refused.

1048
00:53:42,668 --> 00:53:44,101
Look, Pearl,

1049
00:53:44,103 --> 00:53:49,707
I don't even have
to move my mouth.

1050
00:53:49,709 --> 00:53:52,646
I just open it and eat.

1051
00:53:53,446 --> 00:53:56,915
The following day, they awoke
to find the grass so high

1052
00:53:56,917 --> 00:54:00,185
Toughie had to raise his head
to eat breakfast.

1053
00:54:00,187 --> 00:54:01,854
Pearl knew she had
to do something.

1054
00:54:01,856 --> 00:54:05,723
She tried to convince Toughie to accompany
her to the farm to see Nicky the goat,

1055
00:54:05,725 --> 00:54:07,792
hoping he could
reverse the spell,

1056
00:54:07,794 --> 00:54:09,262
but Toughie refused.

1057
00:54:09,264 --> 00:54:11,764
Busy gobbling up
ever blade in sight.

1058
00:54:11,766 --> 00:54:13,465
Sadly, Pearl left.

1059
00:54:13,467 --> 00:54:14,867
She walked and walked,

1060
00:54:14,869 --> 00:54:18,336
and when she reached the edge of
the meadow, she climbed the hill.

1061
00:54:18,338 --> 00:54:20,375
Looking out, she could
not even see Toughie.

1062
00:54:21,742 --> 00:54:24,476
Toughie, can you hear me?

1063
00:54:24,478 --> 00:54:27,345
The grass was so high
it swallowed the meadow.

1064
00:54:27,347 --> 00:54:29,382
Toughie was nowhere in sight.

1065
00:54:29,384 --> 00:54:31,983
Exhausted, Pearl walked
through the forest

1066
00:54:31,985 --> 00:54:33,787
towards the farm
where she had met the goat.

1067
00:54:33,789 --> 00:54:36,857
Nicky, I'm so glad I found you.

1068
00:54:36,859 --> 00:54:40,993
The grass has grown so high in the meadow.
We cannot see out.

1069
00:54:40,995 --> 00:54:44,397
It's so tough we can barely
get our teeth through it.

1070
00:54:44,399 --> 00:54:49,903
I warned you not to plant
more than two seeds at a time.

1071
00:54:49,905 --> 00:54:54,274
I told you
they were magical seeds.

1072
00:54:54,276 --> 00:54:56,276
I know. We made a mistake.

1073
00:54:56,278 --> 00:54:58,279
Please help us.

1074
00:54:58,281 --> 00:55:02,217
You were impatient, greedy.

1075
00:55:02,219 --> 00:55:04,853
Now, the only thing you can do

1076
00:55:04,855 --> 00:55:08,322
is to leave the meadow forever

1077
00:55:08,324 --> 00:55:13,128
and be happy to dine on the
short, stubby patches of grass

1078
00:55:13,130 --> 00:55:16,431
until spring rains arrive.

1079
00:55:16,433 --> 00:55:19,534
Pearl walked as fast
as her cow legs would allow her,

1080
00:55:19,536 --> 00:55:21,903
hoping to find Toughie and
convince him to leave the meadow.

1081
00:55:21,905 --> 00:55:26,008
She walked and walked until she reached
the hillside overlooking the field.

1082
00:55:26,010 --> 00:55:27,943
Gazing out, she gasped

1083
00:55:27,945 --> 00:55:30,446
as she saw the green
grass had withered,

1084
00:55:30,448 --> 00:55:32,847
leaving dying leaves
weeds in its place.

1085
00:55:32,849 --> 00:55:35,917
Toughie, can you hear me?

1086
00:55:35,919 --> 00:55:39,053
Pearl called again and again,
but Toughie didn't answer.

1087
00:55:39,055 --> 00:55:41,022
She was about to give up hope

1088
00:55:41,024 --> 00:55:44,026
when the crackling crunch of dead
leaves caught her attention.

1089
00:55:44,028 --> 00:55:46,029
Toughie tromped toward her.

1090
00:55:46,031 --> 00:55:48,098
Toughie, are you okay?

1091
00:55:48,100 --> 00:55:52,935
You were right, Pearl.
I was impatient, greedy.

1092
00:55:52,937 --> 00:55:55,304
I should have listened to you.

1093
00:55:55,306 --> 00:55:58,574
I promise if you
let me walk with you

1094
00:55:58,576 --> 00:56:02,212
to find another field,

1095
00:56:02,214 --> 00:56:06,348
I will eat
the sparse, stubby grass

1096
00:56:06,350 --> 00:56:09,086
until spring rains come.

1097
00:56:09,088 --> 00:56:12,423
I will be happy
with what we have

1098
00:56:12,425 --> 00:56:17,160
and shall never complain again.

1099
00:56:17,162 --> 00:56:19,262
[moos]

1100
00:56:19,264 --> 00:56:20,932
Yes, my dear Toughie,

1101
00:56:20,934 --> 00:56:24,468
let's walk as far as we must
to find another field.

1102
00:56:24,470 --> 00:56:27,370
But don't make a promise
you cannot keep.

1103
00:56:27,372 --> 00:56:32,142
For just as the spring rains will turn
our dry meadow into a blanket of grass,

1104
00:56:32,144 --> 00:56:35,580
you will always find something
to complain about.

1105
00:56:35,582 --> 00:56:38,217
Why, what a fun, little tale!

1106
00:56:38,219 --> 00:56:39,152
Do you have another?

1107
00:56:39,154 --> 00:56:42,020
I have one more tale
for your new story.

1108
00:56:42,022 --> 00:56:45,324
Then, you must promise to leave
and find your own ending.

1109
00:56:45,326 --> 00:56:47,359
[Scout] New story endings
are easy to find.

1110
00:56:47,361 --> 00:56:50,261
It's the middle of the story
that requires the most work.

1111
00:56:50,263 --> 00:56:51,629
Then close your eyes.

1112
00:56:51,631 --> 00:56:53,565
I will grant your last wish

1113
00:56:53,567 --> 00:56:55,533
and help you travel
to another story.

1114
00:56:55,535 --> 00:56:57,135
How sad!

1115
00:56:57,137 --> 00:56:59,040
Is this a really sad story?

1116
00:57:00,608 --> 00:57:02,175
[Cassandra]
Don't interrupt.

1117
00:57:02,177 --> 00:57:04,910
One day,
a storm capsized a boat.

1118
00:57:04,912 --> 00:57:08,947
Strong tides carried the only two
survivors to the exotic jungle,

1119
00:57:08,949 --> 00:57:13,952
a loyal, obedient dog
and a smart, sassy cat.

1120
00:57:13,954 --> 00:57:15,488
The cat's name was DeeDee,

1121
00:57:15,490 --> 00:57:18,458
a Siamese cat
with bright green eyes

1122
00:57:18,460 --> 00:57:21,261
and a very sarcastic
disposition.

1123
00:57:21,263 --> 00:57:23,096
The dog's name was Rex,

1124
00:57:23,098 --> 00:57:26,466
a happy, friendly animal
with a sunny disposition.

1125
00:57:26,468 --> 00:57:28,902
Of all the islands
in all the world,

1126
00:57:28,904 --> 00:57:33,239
I have to wind up on this one
with a big, slobbering dog.

1127
00:57:33,241 --> 00:57:34,607
That I am.

1128
00:57:34,609 --> 00:57:37,344
Name is Rex.
What's your name?

1129
00:57:37,346 --> 00:57:40,948
Ugh! DeeDee. Now, go away.
I wanna be alone.

1130
00:57:40,950 --> 00:57:44,585
Why? We are lucky
to have each other.

1131
00:57:44,587 --> 00:57:47,054
[scoffs] There's no
"we", you foolish dog.

1132
00:57:47,056 --> 00:57:49,423
I'm a cat.
We're lone animals.

1133
00:57:49,425 --> 00:57:51,325
Now, go away!

1134
00:57:51,327 --> 00:57:53,394
For days, the cat
avoided the dog,

1135
00:57:53,396 --> 00:57:56,231
thinking she would
do better on her own.

1136
00:57:56,233 --> 00:57:57,266
But this jungle was dangerous,

1137
00:57:57,268 --> 00:57:59,534
and DeeDee soon found
herself looking for Rex.

1138
00:57:59,536 --> 00:58:02,536
She didn't have to look far,
since Rex was lonely

1139
00:58:02,538 --> 00:58:05,307
and had been following her,
tracking her scent.

1140
00:58:05,309 --> 00:58:08,075
The children will
love this story.

1141
00:58:08,077 --> 00:58:11,980
Many boys and girls have
pet cats, and dogs, or both.

1142
00:58:11,982 --> 00:58:14,350
If we want
to survive this jungle,

1143
00:58:14,352 --> 00:58:16,651
we have to work together.

1144
00:58:16,653 --> 00:58:20,990
Meow. I told you. Cats
don't like the word "we".

1145
00:58:20,992 --> 00:58:23,558
[barking]
Okay.

1146
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:25,995
But I am very thirsty.

1147
00:58:25,997 --> 00:58:28,029
Maybe just this one time,

1148
00:58:28,031 --> 00:58:31,100
we could work together to find
some fresh water to drink.

1149
00:58:31,102 --> 00:58:34,503
[meowing]
I'm thirsty too.

1150
00:58:34,505 --> 00:58:36,739
In fact, DeeDee the cat
was so thirsty

1151
00:58:36,741 --> 00:58:39,141
she knew she would not last long

1152
00:58:39,143 --> 00:58:42,012
if she didn't find fresh water
to drink soon.

1153
00:58:42,014 --> 00:58:43,746
Any suggestions?

1154
00:58:43,748 --> 00:58:44,882
You're a cat.

1155
00:58:44,884 --> 00:58:47,550
You can climb to a high branch
of one of these trees

1156
00:58:47,552 --> 00:58:50,587
and see where we might find
a fresh lake or pond.

1157
00:58:50,589 --> 00:58:52,655
DeeDee thought
this was an excellent idea.

1158
00:58:52,657 --> 00:58:55,391
She couldn't believe she
hadn't thought of it herself.

1159
00:58:55,393 --> 00:58:58,528
She quickly jumped onto one
of the jungle's giant trees,

1160
00:58:58,530 --> 00:59:00,263
grasped the bark
with her claws,

1161
00:59:00,265 --> 00:59:02,265
and nimbly climbed the branches

1162
00:59:02,267 --> 00:59:04,002
until she reached
the top of the tree.

1163
00:59:04,004 --> 00:59:06,636
At once, she saw
a fresh, glistening lake

1164
00:59:06,638 --> 00:59:08,506
not too far
from where they were.

1165
00:59:08,508 --> 00:59:12,075
But when DeeDee tried
to climb down, she couldn't.

1166
00:59:12,077 --> 00:59:13,310
She couldn't get down?

1167
00:59:13,312 --> 00:59:15,546
- Oh, no!
- Oh, yes!

1168
00:59:15,548 --> 00:59:19,182
DeeDee had been a house cat and
didn't have much outdoor experience.

1169
00:59:19,184 --> 00:59:21,020
While her sharp
claws allowed her

1170
00:59:21,022 --> 00:59:23,221
to scurry up the tree
trunk quite easily,

1171
00:59:23,223 --> 00:59:26,391
they didn't work as well
when she turned to climb down.

1172
00:59:26,393 --> 00:59:28,192
Rex craned his neck to see her.

1173
00:59:28,194 --> 00:59:31,195
- You okay?
- I'm not sure how to get down.

1174
00:59:31,197 --> 00:59:33,665
Why not do exactly what
you did going up the tree

1175
00:59:33,667 --> 00:59:35,266
only in reverse?

1176
00:59:35,268 --> 00:59:37,536
You mean climb backwards?

1177
00:59:37,538 --> 00:59:39,371
Why not?

1178
00:59:39,373 --> 00:59:43,141
DeeDee tried Rex's suggestion and
was on the ground in no time.

1179
00:59:43,143 --> 00:59:46,312
Maybe you aren't such a worthless
dog after all. [meowing]

1180
00:59:46,314 --> 00:59:50,216
From the high tree top, I spotted a
freshwater lake not far from here.

1181
00:59:50,218 --> 00:59:52,051
[sniffing]

1182
00:59:52,053 --> 00:59:54,553
I think it's this way,
but I don't smell it yet.

1183
00:59:54,555 --> 00:59:57,423
Point me in the right direction,
and I'll find the lake.

1184
00:59:57,425 --> 01:00:00,325
We dogs have
a highly sensitive nose,

1185
01:00:00,327 --> 01:00:02,562
a great sense of smell.

1186
01:00:02,564 --> 01:00:05,097
Rex, nose to the ground,
followed the cat's lead,

1187
01:00:05,099 --> 01:00:09,136
and soon enough, his great sense of
smell led them right to the lake.

1188
01:00:09,138 --> 01:00:12,406
Rex lapped the water with his
tongue, slobbering, splashing

1189
01:00:12,408 --> 01:00:16,409
while DeeDee delicately drank the
water until she had her fill.

1190
01:00:16,411 --> 01:00:18,245
Now, I'm hungry.

1191
01:00:18,247 --> 01:00:19,813
Me, too.

1192
01:00:19,815 --> 01:00:22,149
I would love to eat
a big chunk of meat.

1193
01:00:22,151 --> 01:00:25,585
Although, a mouthful of grass
would fill me up as well.

1194
01:00:25,587 --> 01:00:28,489
I don't eat plants,
but I do love meat.

1195
01:00:28,491 --> 01:00:30,723
We have many differences,

1196
01:00:30,725 --> 01:00:33,528
but we also share
many of the same traits.

1197
01:00:33,530 --> 01:00:35,664
We are both mammals.
We have fur.

1198
01:00:35,666 --> 01:00:37,798
We drink milk
when we're babies.

1199
01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:39,501
But we're also very different.

1200
01:00:39,503 --> 01:00:41,869
You slobber when you drink.
I'm very delicate.

1201
01:00:41,871 --> 01:00:44,106
I can climb and jump.
You can't.

1202
01:00:44,108 --> 01:00:47,209
I have a better sense of smell
and more teeth.

1203
01:00:47,211 --> 01:00:51,146
But it is our differences that
can help us survive the jungle.

1204
01:00:51,148 --> 01:00:53,782
I hunt at night, so I can find
us food when you're sleeping.

1205
01:00:53,784 --> 01:00:55,684
I'll prepare breakfast.

1206
01:00:55,686 --> 01:00:58,254
And I prefer to hunt
during the day.

1207
01:00:58,256 --> 01:01:00,422
You will never go to bed hungry.

1208
01:01:00,424 --> 01:01:03,725
Once Rex and DeeDee celebrated
their individual strengths,

1209
01:01:03,727 --> 01:01:05,328
they began to work together.

1210
01:01:05,330 --> 01:01:08,131
Many years later, they were
rescued from the jungle,

1211
01:01:08,133 --> 01:01:09,866
but neither of them
forgot each other,

1212
01:01:09,868 --> 01:01:11,833
nor the power of their teamwork.

1213
01:01:11,835 --> 01:01:14,536
Now, that's a tale with a moral!

1214
01:01:14,538 --> 01:01:15,670
[Cassandra]
The end.

1215
01:01:15,672 --> 01:01:17,339
I liked that story too.

1216
01:01:17,341 --> 01:01:20,644
Now, it's time
for you two to resurface

1217
01:01:20,646 --> 01:01:22,778
and find a happy ending
for your new story.

1218
01:01:22,780 --> 01:01:24,481
The children are waiting,

1219
01:01:24,483 --> 01:01:27,187
and I can't wait to hear
what happens next.

1220
01:01:28,353 --> 01:01:29,288
[upbeat music playing]

1221
01:01:39,898 --> 01:01:42,766
Sorry, cuz, time for me
to chase you down.

1222
01:01:42,768 --> 01:01:45,435
Can't let you end the story.
Victor is getting hungry.

1223
01:01:45,437 --> 01:01:48,473
We gave you all the story
you're gonna get, Stunt.

1224
01:01:48,475 --> 01:01:49,540
Out of our way, Stunt.

1225
01:01:49,542 --> 01:01:51,176
[Stunt]
No can do.

1226
01:01:51,178 --> 01:01:54,578
Come on! Don't be greedy.

1227
01:01:54,580 --> 01:01:56,781
You boys got most of the story.

1228
01:01:56,783 --> 01:02:01,486
You don't really want one of them
silly, happy endings, do you?

1229
01:02:01,488 --> 01:02:03,687
Let me end the story...

1230
01:02:03,689 --> 01:02:05,425
by eating it.

1231
01:02:06,859 --> 01:02:09,195
- That was a close one, Scout.
- Sure was.

1232
01:02:09,197 --> 01:02:11,697
We'd better finish this story
as fast as we can.

1233
01:02:11,699 --> 01:02:15,300
Where are we?
They blew us off course.

1234
01:02:15,302 --> 01:02:17,202
No matter.
Stories are like taffy.

1235
01:02:17,204 --> 01:02:19,405
There's always another
way to twist it.

1236
01:02:19,407 --> 01:02:21,739
Let's end
at the Enchanted Forest.

1237
01:02:21,741 --> 01:02:25,844
Why, that's brilliant! We'll end
the story where the story began.

1238
01:02:25,846 --> 01:02:26,882
Full circle!

1239
01:02:27,983 --> 01:02:31,282
Barney Owl was flying
through the Enchanted Forest

1240
01:02:31,284 --> 01:02:34,421
when a boy with brown hair and
freckles called out to him.

1241
01:02:34,423 --> 01:02:37,723
We'll find the boy
and our happy ending.

♪ Fly high
Fly low ♪

1243
01:02:41,896 --> 01:02:44,598
♪ Soar and away ♪

1244
01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:47,933
♪ We must find

1245
01:02:47,935 --> 01:02:54,577
♪ And save the day ♪

1246
01:02:58,413 --> 01:03:01,315
Before we find the boy,
let's end with something fun.

1247
01:03:01,317 --> 01:03:03,717
Yes, I love Fantasy Island.

1248
01:03:03,719 --> 01:03:05,920
We always find
a new character here.

1249
01:03:05,922 --> 01:03:08,288
His tail is like
a baby T-Rex.

1250
01:03:08,290 --> 01:03:10,824
His head kind of looks
like a giant lizard.

1251
01:03:10,826 --> 01:03:12,726
His scales are like a snake.

1252
01:03:12,728 --> 01:03:15,295
Children love new dinosaurs!

1253
01:03:15,297 --> 01:03:17,998
Especially dinosaurs
with wings that can fly.

1254
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:19,766
Let's go see
if he's friendly.

1255
01:03:19,768 --> 01:03:20,901
[dragon sneezing]

1256
01:03:20,903 --> 01:03:22,903
Hey, I'm Axel.
This here is Scout.

1257
01:03:22,905 --> 01:03:24,171
We're Horse Play,

1258
01:03:24,173 --> 01:03:28,276
the only super-duper delivery
story service in the universe.

1259
01:03:28,278 --> 01:03:30,879
We're about to deliver
one of our super-duper stories

1260
01:03:30,881 --> 01:03:33,615
to a boy who lives nearby
in the Enchanted Forest.

1261
01:03:33,617 --> 01:03:36,584
We were looking for one more
character to end the story.

1262
01:03:36,586 --> 01:03:39,854
Then we spotted you.
Children love dinosaurs.

1263
01:03:39,856 --> 01:03:42,423
I'm afraid the children
won't like me.

1264
01:03:42,425 --> 01:03:44,393
- Why not?
- No one likes me.

1265
01:03:44,395 --> 01:03:47,063
The dinosaurs tease me
because I'm not big enough.

1266
01:03:47,065 --> 01:03:51,433
The lizards laugh at me because they think
I'm too big to be a lizard or a snake.

1267
01:03:51,435 --> 01:03:53,069
It's hard being me.

1268
01:03:53,071 --> 01:03:54,069
Aww! Cheer up!

1269
01:03:54,071 --> 01:03:56,471
You might not be as big
as the other dinosaurs,

1270
01:03:56,473 --> 01:04:00,076
but there is only one of you
in the entire universe.

1271
01:04:00,078 --> 01:04:03,779
Children love finding new dinosaurs.
Come with us.

1272
01:04:03,781 --> 01:04:06,715
Axel, wait!
He's not a...

01:04:06,717 --> 01:04:08,016
[sneezing]

1274
01:04:08,018 --> 01:04:10,954
A dinosaur that roars fire.

1275
01:04:10,956 --> 01:04:13,624
[laughing] Cool!

1276
01:04:13,626 --> 01:04:15,693
Now, we have every
story element we need

1277
01:04:15,695 --> 01:04:19,463
to find the boy
and finish this here story.

1278
01:04:19,465 --> 01:04:23,499
I'm not a dinosaur.
My name is blue, and I'm...

1279
01:04:23,501 --> 01:04:26,769
I know who you are.
I was about to tell Axel.

1280
01:04:26,771 --> 01:04:28,104
You know?

1281
01:04:28,106 --> 01:04:30,407
You was about to tell me what?

1282
01:04:30,409 --> 01:04:32,075
Blue is the dragon
who flew away

1283
01:04:32,077 --> 01:04:35,013
from the three fat hogs
on Lava Land.

1284
01:04:35,015 --> 01:04:37,716
You are pretending
to be a dinosaur

1285
01:04:37,718 --> 01:04:40,384
so no one will suspect
who you really are.

1286
01:04:40,386 --> 01:04:41,685
How did you know?

1287
01:04:41,687 --> 01:04:43,120
I heard you sneeze.

1288
01:04:43,122 --> 01:04:45,857
I'd recognize
that sneeze anywhere.

1289
01:04:45,859 --> 01:04:47,091
It's humiliating.

1290
01:04:47,093 --> 01:04:50,495
I can no longer
call myself a dragon.

1291
01:04:50,497 --> 01:04:52,763
Yes, you can.
Don't you see?

1292
01:04:52,765 --> 01:04:55,065
You're a fierce, fiery dragon,

1293
01:04:55,067 --> 01:04:57,570
not a scaly dinosaur fake.

1294
01:04:57,572 --> 01:05:00,639
You open up your mouth,
and the whole world quakes.

1295
01:05:00,641 --> 01:05:04,510
You breathe fire on your enemies
and chase them all away.

1296
01:05:04,512 --> 01:05:08,747
You're a real dragon hero
who just saved the day.

1297
01:05:08,749 --> 01:05:11,050
I did, didn't I?

1298
01:05:11,052 --> 01:05:12,818
There's nothing wrong
with your dragon fire.

1299
01:05:12,820 --> 01:05:14,387
You just had a stuffed nose.

1300
01:05:14,389 --> 01:05:17,722
Come with us.
The children love dragons.

1301
01:05:17,724 --> 01:05:19,825
And they'll especially love you,

1302
01:05:19,827 --> 01:05:21,962
because you saved the story.

1303
01:05:21,964 --> 01:05:24,734
You've given them
a happy ending.

1304
01:05:27,836 --> 01:05:29,602
Where's the boy?

1305
01:05:29,604 --> 01:05:32,641
Did you tell him we found
the children a new story?

1306
01:05:34,676 --> 01:05:36,913
Horse Play,
Axel and Scout!

1307
01:05:37,979 --> 01:05:40,647
Super-duper story deliveries
at your service.

1308
01:05:40,649 --> 01:05:43,850
Are the children ready
to hear their new story?

1309
01:05:43,852 --> 01:05:47,057
Oh, yes! We can hardly wait.
Please, begin.

1310
01:05:47,991 --> 01:05:52,025
Once upon a time, there
was an owl named Barney.

1311
01:05:52,027 --> 01:05:53,126
That's me!

1312
01:05:53,128 --> 01:05:56,496
Barney Owl was flying
through the Enchanted Forest

1313
01:05:56,498 --> 01:06:00,601
when a boy with brown hair and
freckles called out to him and said,

1314
01:06:00,603 --> 01:06:02,003
"The children need a new story."

1315
01:06:02,005 --> 01:06:04,871
And here it is.

1316
01:06:04,873 --> 01:06:09,011
It's always good to begin and end
a story with a hearty laugh.

1317
01:06:09,013 --> 01:06:11,149
[laughing]

1318
01:06:14,718 --> 01:06:17,084
[Barney] A horse and an
airplane, what a sight!

1319
01:06:17,086 --> 01:06:20,087
They fly in the day.
They fly through the night.

1320
01:06:20,089 --> 01:06:22,191
Axel the airplane
steers the course

1321
01:06:22,193 --> 01:06:25,127
for his partner and
passenger, Scout the horse.

1322
01:06:25,129 --> 01:06:27,696
Horse Play is
their business name.

1323
01:06:27,698 --> 01:06:32,002
Finding super-duper stories
is their claim to fame.

1324
01:06:35,574 --> 01:06:37,476
[upbeat music playing]

1325
01:06:37,478 --> 01:06:42,478
