NARRATOR: One morning, Peep, Quack and Chirp
discovered something very... odd.
QUACK: Okay, stay behind the duck, everyone.
It looks dangerous.
(jingling)
(Quack screams)
(Chirp chuckles)
Did you hear that?
It jingles.
(jingling)
RACCOON: Did you say "jingles"?
Let me see that.
(sniffs)
Ugh.
Hmm...
What are you talking about?
There's no jingle.
Now, I have something that makes an incredible sound.
It's a, uh... a whatchamacallit.
CHIRP: What's a whatchama... thing?
Well, it's fascinating,
at least, to the, uh... smarter animals.
PEEP: But what is it?
It's a kind of, uh... thingamabob.
Yeah, they're very rare, very unusual to find one.
PEEP: Wow!
Can we see it?
RACCOON: Well... it's in my
secret-private-treasure storage area.
You'll have to walk very far and climb very high.
CHIRP: That's okay.
We were made for climbing.
Let's go.
NARRATOR: Actually they weren't made for climbing at all,
but that's a minor detail.
RACCOON: Oh, look at this place.
They've ruined my organization.
(straining)
There we go.
(lid crashes)
Come on up.
QUACK: I'll, um...
I'll just keep an eye on things down here.
Yeah... mm-hmm.
Hmm...
(rattling)
CHIRP: Hey, watch out.
(screams)
CHIRP: That was close.
Hmm.
CHIRP: Hey, look, it's a straight line to the top.
And it's easy to walk in.
Come on, Peep.
(both panting)
(sighs with fatigue)
RACCOON: I'm sure I put it next to the envelopes.
CHIRP: What does it look like?
RACCOON: Uh, you mean the whoosy-whatsy?
Oh, believe me, you'll recognize it.
Yeah, yeah, you won't be able to miss it.
Come on, Peep.
We have to help find the thing.
CHIRP: You too, Quack.
Hmm?
QUACK: Uh, watch and learn, Peep.
Watch and learn.
(chuckles )
(Chirp gasps)
Peep, Quack!
CHIRP: Get out of the way!
(both yelling)
(Quack screaming)
(panting)
(muttering)
You know, a nice pond does not have these problems.
(sighs)
Quack, you're doing great.
You're almost there.
Whatever you do, don't look down.
QUACK: Whoa...!
(Chirp gasps)
Peep, look out!
(screams)
CHIRP: Peep.
Are you all right?
Wow... that was great.
Try it.
I'm not kidding.
It's the most fun, fun thing ever.
CHIRP: Okay, why not?
Whee!
Woo-hoo!
(chuckles)
(Quack laughs)
(all yelling for joy)
(all chuckling)
NARRATOR: Peep, Quack and Chirp took turns
sliding down the old gutter pipe.
(all laughing)
QUACK: Oh, yeah!
NARRATOR: The raccoon, meanwhile,
kept up a relentless search
for the... thing, you know, the hoozy-whatzit.
(raccoon straining)
Oh... I give up.
PEEP: Everything slides down, but nothing slides up.
QUACK: That's true.
You've discovered a flaw in the system.
PEEP: Watch.
No matter how hard I try, I can't slide up.
(straining)
Hmm...
PEEP: Whoa!
Put me down.
(Peep yelling)
(grunts)
RACCOON: No fair. I wanted to slide.
PEEP: I don't think you can anymore.
CHIRP: That's right.
One end has to be higher.
RACCOON: Like this?
PEEP (giggling): Yes.
Higher.
(Peep laughing)
CHIRP: My turn.
CHIRP: Faster.
(giggling)
(yelling)
(all screaming)
(crashing)
Oops.
PEEP: Is everyone okay?
QUACK: Yes, but I have a thing or two to say to that raccoon.
(raccoon straining)
RACCOON: I found it.
Come here.
(toy squeaks)
(squeaking continues)
PEEP: That's the whatchamacallit?
Yep.
CHIRP: But it's just a squeak toy.
A what?
QUACK: A squeak toy.
Nellie has one.
(squeaks)
Oh, well, got to go.
Catch you later.
CHIRP: That was a lot of work for nothing.
PEEP: At least we got to slide.
QUACK: Now, that's what I call a whatchamacallit.
PEEP and CHIRP: Quack!
GIRL: That's me and Solmara.
We made a ramp with a book and a ball.
The ball rolls down the book pretty fast.
I'm using my leg as a ramp.
My leg is a good ramp.
When I move my foot like this, it turns different directions.
See?
We have a ramp made out of a book,
we have a finish line made out of a book,
and we have two balls.
This ball is heavy, this ball is light.
And we're going to see which one wins a race
Three, two, one, zero.
The wooden ball hit the finish line first.
I wonder why the heavier wooden ball won the race.
These are about the same weight,
but one is bigger and one is smaller.
I'm using a bigger ramp, and the little ball goes pretty far.
I wonder why that bigger ball went further
than the little ball.
We are making a kind of bowling game.
Go.
See what happens when you play with different kinds
of ramps and balls.
(laughter)
