The Frizz is taking us
to the beach today.

46
00:01:48,999 --> 00:01:52,999
Don't forget,
we can't go until
after our reports.

47
00:01:52,999 --> 00:01:55,626
Then let's
keep the reports
short, D.A.

48
00:01:55,626 --> 00:01:59,999
Yup. Where there's
a will, there's a wave!

49
00:01:59,999 --> 00:02:01,959
We brought sand
and a crab shell

50
00:02:01,959 --> 00:02:05,042
for our two beach-
things-that-go-
together report.

51
00:02:05,042 --> 00:02:06,083
Didn't we, Carlos?

52
00:02:06,083 --> 00:02:09,751
Whoa!
A humongous wave
at 10:00!

53
00:02:09,751 --> 00:02:12,250
See? Crabs dig
in the sand,

54
00:02:12,250 --> 00:02:15,209
so crabs and sand
go together.

00:02:21,167 --> 00:02:23,876
What did you bring,
Ralphie?

59
00:02:23,876 --> 00:02:25,792
Ha ha ha! Uh...

60
00:02:25,792 --> 00:02:27,417
Hello, everyone!

61
00:02:27,417 --> 00:02:28,918
Hiya, guys.

62
00:02:28,918 --> 00:02:31,459
Phoebe, did you
bring the dune grass?

63
00:02:31,459 --> 00:02:34,501
Ralphie, have I ever
let you down?

64
00:02:34,501 --> 00:02:35,999
Did you bring
the sun?

65
00:02:35,999 --> 00:02:38,792
Actually, I couldn't
fit it in my knapsack,

66
00:02:38,792 --> 00:02:40,667
but I did bring this.

67
00:02:40,667 --> 00:02:43,334
[inhales and blows]

68
00:02:43,334 --> 00:02:45,542
The sun,
in all its glory!

69
00:02:45,542 --> 00:02:48,000
At my old school,
we weren't allowed

70
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,999
to bring
the sun to class.

71
00:02:49,999 --> 00:02:51,999
Ha ha.
How about you, Tim?

72
00:02:51,999 --> 00:02:53,999
Check it out--
a stunning portrait

73
00:02:53,999 --> 00:02:56,292
of the rock
to go with Wanda's mussel.

74
00:02:56,292 --> 00:03:00,459
You did bring the mussel,
didn't you, Wanda?

75
00:03:00,459 --> 00:03:04,042
Ta-da!
One mussel to go
with Tim's rock.

76
00:03:04,042 --> 00:03:06,542
I named him
Gussel the Mussel.

77
00:03:06,542 --> 00:03:07,999
Gus for short.

78
00:03:07,999 --> 00:03:09,626
Who's Gus for short?

79
00:03:09,626 --> 00:03:10,667
Hi, Keesha!

80
00:03:10,667 --> 00:03:12,834
Gus is the mussel
I brought

81
00:03:12,834 --> 00:03:15,999
for the two beach-things-
that-go-together report.
See?

82
00:03:15,999 --> 00:03:18,042
Oh, no! Oh, help!
Oh, bad!

83
00:03:18,042 --> 00:03:22,334
Oh, bad, bad, oh,
bad, bad, bad,
bad, bad, bad!

84
00:03:22,334 --> 00:03:23,375
Something wrong?

85
00:03:23,375 --> 00:03:26,876
I totally forgot
about the report.

86
00:03:26,876 --> 00:03:27,999
You did?

87
00:03:27,999 --> 00:03:29,751
You didn't
bring anything?

88
00:03:29,751 --> 00:03:33,125
Just my swimsuit
and a towel...

89
00:03:34,334 --> 00:03:36,542
and a tuna fish
sandwich.

90
00:03:36,542 --> 00:03:37,334
(kids)
Uh-oh!

91
00:03:37,334 --> 00:03:40,709
What's wrong with that?
I love tuna sandwiches!

92
00:03:40,709 --> 00:03:44,999
Listen, don't panic yet.
Who's your partner?

93
00:03:44,999 --> 00:03:45,709
Arnold.

94
00:03:45,709 --> 00:03:47,999
Don't worry.
Arnold likes reports.

95
00:03:47,999 --> 00:03:50,417
He probably did
the whole thing himself.

96
00:03:50,417 --> 00:03:52,334
Where is Arnold,
anyway?

00:03:52,334 --> 00:03:55,209

Arnold!

99
00:03:58,999 --> 00:03:59,792
Hi, guys!

100
00:03:59,792 --> 00:04:02,999
Yuck! What happened
to your shoe?

101
00:04:02,999 --> 00:04:03,999
I was running,

102
00:04:03,999 --> 00:04:06,999
and I sort of
stepped into the pond
near our house.

103
00:04:06,999 --> 00:04:08,999
And you were running
because you were
in a hurry

104
00:04:08,999 --> 00:04:11,000
because you couldn't wait
to show me what you did

105
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,918
for our two beach-things-that-
go-together report, right?

106
00:04:15,918 --> 00:04:19,999
Oh, I knew
I forgot something!

107
00:04:19,999 --> 00:04:23,999
You mean you didn't
bring anything, either?

108
00:04:23,999 --> 00:04:27,167
Just my bathing suit
and a towel.

109
00:04:27,709 --> 00:04:29,584
And the scum
on your shoe!

110
00:04:29,584 --> 00:04:30,792
[laughter]

111
00:04:30,792 --> 00:04:32,959
Scum and a tuna fish
sandwich!

112
00:04:32,959 --> 00:04:34,918
D.A., why didn't
we think of that?

113
00:04:34,918 --> 00:04:38,834
But do scum
and a tuna fish sandwich
go together?

114
00:04:38,834 --> 00:04:40,959
Hey! Maybe they do.

115
00:04:40,959 --> 00:04:45,417
Think. Think. Think.
Think. Think.
Think. Think.

116
00:04:45,417 --> 00:04:46,751
No.

117
00:04:46,751 --> 00:04:47,292
Oh, great.

118
00:04:47,292 --> 00:04:50,542
Not only do I get slimed
by pond scum,

119
00:04:50,542 --> 00:04:52,667
but I forget my report!

120
00:04:52,667 --> 00:04:56,501
I knew I should have
stayed home today.

121
00:04:56,501 --> 00:04:58,083
Hey!

122
00:04:58,083 --> 00:04:59,999
We can't just
give up, Arnold.

123
00:04:59,999 --> 00:05:02,999

with what we've got.

Hang ten, you guys!

130
00:05:14,999 --> 00:05:16,999
Maybe she'll forget
the reports.

131
00:05:16,999 --> 00:05:18,501
And the first thing
on the agenda

132
00:05:18,501 --> 00:05:22,999
is your two-beach-things-
that-go-together reports.

133
00:05:22,999 --> 00:05:25,999
Then again, maybe she won't.

134

to make its own food.

No sun,
no dune grass.

Exactly!

181
00:07:59,375 --> 00:08:03,125
(Ms. Frizzle)
We're here!
Everybody out!

182
00:08:04,918 --> 00:08:06,834
There's dune grass!

183
00:08:06,834 --> 00:08:09,999
With the sun
beaming down on it.

184
00:08:12,709 --> 00:08:13,709
And here's a rock.

185
00:08:13,709 --> 00:08:15,709
Covered with
Gus' family.

186
00:08:15,709 --> 00:08:17,334
Look at them all.

187
00:08:17,334 --> 00:08:20,709
It's a regular
mussel beach!
Ha ha!

188
00:08:20,709 --> 00:08:21,959
(kids)
Carlos!

189
00:08:21,959 --> 00:08:25,999
And here's
a crab burrowing
into the sand!

190
00:08:26,751 --> 00:08:28,792
Look up there!

191
00:08:28,792 --> 00:08:30,417
That's a gull,
isn't it?

192
00:08:30,417 --> 00:08:33,626
I wonder
what it's doing.

193
00:08:35,999 --> 00:08:39,959
Wow! It just ate
that crab!

194
00:08:46,792 --> 00:08:50,792
The beach air
is making me hungry.

195
00:08:50,792 --> 00:08:54,542
Everyone else's report
seems so obvious.

196
00:08:54,542 --> 00:08:56,083
Ohh!

197
00:08:57,292 --> 00:09:00,250
Arnold, you're eating
our report!

198
00:09:00,250 --> 00:09:02,542
Oh, sorry.
I forgot.

199
00:09:02,542 --> 00:09:05,125
Arnold, we've got
to figure out
the connection

200
00:09:05,125 --> 00:09:08,667
between my sandwich
and your scum.

201
00:09:08,667 --> 00:09:10,000
beep, beep

202
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,918
Ready to explore
this environment
in a bit more depth?

203
00:09:14,918 --> 00:09:16,334
Huh?
Now?

204
00:09:16,334 --> 00:09:17,959
But we just
got here.

205
00:09:17,959 --> 00:09:22,083
Uh-oh! I'm getting that old
field-trip feeling again!

206
00:09:22,083 --> 00:09:23,083
Come on, Arnold.

207
00:09:23,083 --> 00:09:27,417
I know we can figure
it out if we try.

208
00:09:28,250 --> 00:09:31,125
Seat belts, everyone!

209
00:09:31,125 --> 00:09:34,000
H-2-O, here we go!

210
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,667
Ha ha ha!

211
00:09:39,250 --> 00:09:42,209
Mmm! How refreshing!

212
00:09:48,125 --> 00:09:52,083
♪ Anchors aweigh, my class,
anchors aweigh ♪

213
00:09:52,083 --> 00:09:55,999

00:10:01,501 --> 00:10:02,876
Think, Arnold!
Think!

217
00:10:02,876 --> 00:10:06,667
I can't! I hate it
when my socks get wet.

218
00:10:06,667 --> 00:10:07,999
Can I have my shoe back?

219
00:10:07,999 --> 00:10:11,999
No way.
We need it
for our report!

220
00:10:11,999 --> 00:10:13,417
Oh, look!

221
00:10:13,417 --> 00:10:15,292
There's some
seaweed!

222
00:10:15,292 --> 00:10:18,959
What are those?
They're beautiful.

223
00:10:18,959 --> 00:10:21,209
Those are
sea urchins, Tim.

224
00:10:21,209 --> 00:10:22,209
They eat seaweed.

225
00:10:22,209 --> 00:10:25,125
And sea otters
eat them!

226
00:10:25,959 --> 00:10:29,375
Do you really think
they ought-er
[otter]?

227
00:10:29,375 --> 00:10:31,999
Bad, Carlos.

228
00:10:32,999 --> 00:10:34,250
Are you looking,
Arnold?

229
00:10:34,250 --> 00:10:35,209
What do you see
down there?

230
00:10:35,209 --> 00:10:39,542
Well, I'm trying hard
to look for connections,
just as you said,

231
00:10:39,542 --> 00:10:43,501
but I can't see past
all that green stuff.

232
00:10:43,501 --> 00:10:45,999
Yuck.
It's gone
all scummy.

233
00:10:45,999 --> 00:10:48,999
Did you say scummy?
That's it!

234
00:10:48,999 --> 00:10:51,999
Look, Keesha! Scum!

235
00:10:52,542 --> 00:10:55,375
Excellent observation,
Arnold.

236
00:10:55,375 --> 00:10:58,459
This scum is called
phytoplankton.

237
00:10:58,459 --> 00:11:00,209
Phytoplankton?

238
00:11:00,209 --> 00:11:02,083
Phytoplankton!

239
00:11:02,083 --> 00:11:04,501
Phy-to-plankton!

240
00:11:04,501 --> 00:11:07,000
Yes.
Little, tiny plants.

241
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,501
Wait a second.

242
00:11:08,501 --> 00:11:10,876
Does that mean the scum
on Arnold's shoe

243
00:11:10,876 --> 00:11:14,334
is some kind
of phytoplankton?

244
00:11:14,334 --> 00:11:19,417
Care to try my marvelous
megamagnifier, mayhaps?

245
00:11:20,792 --> 00:11:23,083
Sea scum...

246
00:11:24,042 --> 00:11:25,501
Shoe scum...

247
00:11:25,501 --> 00:11:27,542
Not exactly
the same,

248
00:11:27,542 --> 00:11:30,000
but not far off.

249
00:11:31,959 --> 00:11:33,459
What do you
think, Keesha?

250
00:11:33,459 --> 00:11:35,792
Should we take
a closer look?

251
00:11:35,792 --> 00:11:36,959
Sure. Why not?

252
00:11:36,959 --> 00:11:39,292
No, Keesha, you don't know
what you're saying.

253
00:11:39,292 --> 00:11:40,542
I know that
tone of voice.

254
00:11:40,542 --> 00:11:43,375
It means something weird
is going to happen!

255
00:11:43,375 --> 00:11:46,501
Wa-hoo!

256
00:11:54,999 --> 00:11:57,083
Did we just shrink?

257
00:11:57,083 --> 00:11:58,083
We did.

258
00:11:58,083 --> 00:12:01,584
We are now as tiny
as phytoplankton.

259
00:12:01,584 --> 00:12:02,999
And that's
seriously tiny.

260
00:12:02,999 --> 00:12:05,999
Class, you will notice that
the bus is equipping each of us

261
00:12:05,999 --> 00:12:10,167
with a specially designed
underwater breathing mask.

262
00:12:10,167 --> 00:12:13,667
So get messy!
Make mistakes!

263
00:12:13,667 --> 00:12:16,918
Get out there
and explore!

264
00:12:16,918 --> 00:12:18,999
(Wanda)
I'll go first!

265
00:12:20,083 --> 00:12:22,459
(Ralphie)
This is so cool!

266
00:12:22,459 --> 00:12:24,918
(Arnold)
And so wet!

267
00:12:24,918 --> 00:12:25,999
(Tim)
Wow!

268
00:12:25,999 --> 00:12:29,999
And remember,
look for connections!

269
00:12:29,999 --> 00:12:31,667
Got it.

270
00:12:44,542 --> 00:12:45,584
I don't get it.

271
00:12:45,584 --> 00:12:48,626
How are we supposed to find
a tuna fish sandwich

272
00:12:48,626 --> 00:12:49,834
in the middle of the ocean

273
00:12:49,834 --> 00:12:52,334
when we're the size
of phytoplankton?

274
00:12:52,334 --> 00:12:54,167
Who knows?
Maybe there's
teeny-tiny,

275
00:12:54,167 --> 00:12:57,000
phytoplankton-operated
sandwich stands!

276
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,876
And to think that
when we're big,

277
00:12:58,876 --> 00:13:01,125
all this just looks
like green scum.

278
00:13:01,125 --> 00:13:03,999
Amazing, isn't it?

279
00:13:04,292 --> 00:13:07,042
Arnold,
what are you doing?

280
00:13:07,042 --> 00:13:07,542
Who, me?

281
00:13:07,542 --> 00:13:11,876
Arnold, we have to figure out
what all this has got to do

282
00:13:11,876 --> 00:13:13,334
with my tuna fish sandwich!

283
00:13:13,334 --> 00:13:16,250
And we have
to figure it out now!

284
00:13:16,250 --> 00:13:19,834
Hey, Keesha!
Look at me!

285
00:13:19,834 --> 00:13:21,999
Whoa-ho!

286
00:13:21,999 --> 00:13:26,042
Is it my imagination,
or do they look hungry?

287
00:13:26,042 --> 00:13:30,167
(both)
Aah!

288
00:13:31,083 --> 00:13:32,918
(Ms. Frizzle)
It's not just you, Ralphie.

289
00:13:32,918 --> 00:13:35,584
These bigger creatures are
eating the phytoplankton.

290
00:13:35,584 --> 00:13:41,167
So as I always say,
"It's better to be
in the bus."

291
00:13:42,167 --> 00:13:43,999
(kids)
Whoa!

292
00:13:43,999 --> 00:13:47,584
(Ms. Frizzle)
Than to be
in something else.

293
00:13:48,667 --> 00:13:52,626
Nature never ceases
to amaze me.

294
00:13:52,626 --> 00:13:55,167
Whoa!

295
00:13:55,167 --> 00:13:58,876
Whew. We were nearly
lunch at first sight.

296
00:13:58,876 --> 00:14:01,999
Just your average
day at the beach
with the Frizz.

297
00:14:01,999 --> 00:14:06,584
(Ms. Frizzle)
OK, bus, do your stuff.

298
00:14:09,459 --> 00:14:10,751
Congratulations!

299
00:14:10,751 --> 00:14:12,999
We are now the size
of zooplankton.

300
00:14:12,999 --> 00:14:17,876
Zooplankton?
I wonder if that's what
just tried to eat us.

301
00:14:17,876 --> 00:14:19,584
(Ms. Frizzle)
Very good, Keesha!

302
00:14:19,584 --> 00:14:21,667
Zooplankton
eat phytoplankton.

303
00:14:21,667 --> 00:14:25,834
Zooplankton are tiny animals
that live in the water.

304
00:14:25,834 --> 00:14:26,709
This way, class.

305
00:14:26,709 --> 00:14:29,999
We've got to take chances!
Get messy!

306
00:14:29,999 --> 00:14:30,834
Get eaten.

307
00:14:30,834 --> 00:14:35,250
(Ms. Frizzle)
And don't forget
to look for connections!

308
00:14:35,250 --> 00:14:38,125
But, Ms. Frizzle,
this is a big ocean.

309
00:14:38,125 --> 00:14:39,292
I'll never find
a connection

310
00:14:39,292 --> 00:14:41,667
between scum
and a tuna fish
sandwich.

311
00:14:41,667 --> 00:14:46,459
Of course you will, Keesha.
Stay with your partner.

312
00:14:46,459 --> 00:14:47,709
But--

313
00:14:47,709 --> 00:14:49,999
Hey, Keesha,
we thought

314
00:14:49,999 --> 00:14:51,959
phytoplankton
looked weird!

315
00:14:51,959 --> 00:14:53,626
Get a load of
these guys!

316
00:14:53,626 --> 00:14:57,334
They are not guys, Carlos.
They are zooplankton.

317
00:14:57,334 --> 00:14:59,167
There don't seem to
be as many of them

318
00:14:59,167 --> 00:15:00,792
as there were of
the phytoplankton.

319
00:15:00,792 --> 00:15:05,959
Good observation, Tim.
What else do you notice?
Anyone?

320
00:15:05,959 --> 00:15:09,000
Those giant things.

321
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,542
Very good, Phoebe.

322
00:15:10,542 --> 00:15:13,999
Those giant things
are anchovies.

323
00:15:13,999 --> 00:15:16,167
They're
a kind of fish.

324
00:15:16,167 --> 00:15:17,918
Anchovies? You mean
the salty things

325
00:15:17,918 --> 00:15:22,709
my dad puts on his pizza
when he doesn't want me
to eat it?

326
00:15:22,709 --> 00:15:24,959
You may not like
anchovies, Ralphie,

327
00:15:24,959 --> 00:15:25,999
but they
might like you.

328
00:15:25,999 --> 00:15:30,876
I wonder if that's
because we're the size
of zooplankton.

329
00:15:30,876 --> 00:15:32,792
Keesha's right, class.

330
00:15:32,792 --> 00:15:36,999
As you can see,
anchovies eat zooplankton.

331
00:15:38,751 --> 00:15:41,501
Can anyone guess
where this is leading?

332
00:15:41,501 --> 00:15:42,542
To lunch?

333
00:15:42,542 --> 00:15:42,999
Precisely.

334
00:15:42,999 --> 00:15:45,999
All right, everyone!
Back in the bus!

335
00:15:45,999 --> 00:15:48,751
(kids)
Aah!

336
00:15:48,751 --> 00:15:51,209
(Ms. Frizzle)
Ready, bus?

337
00:15:51,209 --> 00:15:54,083
(kids)
Whee!
(Ms. Frizzle)
Well done.

338
00:15:54,083 --> 00:15:56,501
We are now the size
of an anchovy.

339
00:15:56,501 --> 00:15:59,918
I suggest we stay in the bus
while we have our lunch.

340
00:15:59,918 --> 00:16:02,834
But there's
so much to see
out there!

341
00:16:02,834 --> 00:16:04,999
Excellent observation,
Wanda.

342
00:16:04,999 --> 00:16:07,999
At my old school,
we always had
to stay on the bus

343
00:16:07,999 --> 00:16:11,167
if we ate lunch
in the ocean.

344
00:16:11,792 --> 00:16:13,542
Since we can't eat
our report,

345
00:16:13,542 --> 00:16:15,709
do you want some
organic potato chips?

346
00:16:15,709 --> 00:16:19,292
No, thanks. I had some
phytoplankton earlier.

347
00:16:19,292 --> 00:16:20,459
You did?

348
00:16:20,459 --> 00:16:23,125
Listen, Arnold,
time is running out,

349
00:16:23,125 --> 00:16:24,876
and we don't have
our report yet.

350
00:16:24,876 --> 00:16:28,999
Scum--tuna fish sandwich.
Scum--tuna fish sandwich!

351
00:16:28,999 --> 00:16:30,999
What's in
a tuna sandwich,
anyway?

352
00:16:30,999 --> 00:16:34,709
Mayonnaise, tuna fish,
maybe a little vinegar,

353
00:16:34,709 --> 00:16:36,459
some chopped celery--

354
00:16:36,459 --> 00:16:39,999
Did you say tuna fish?

355
00:16:39,999 --> 00:16:40,709
Um, yeah.

356
00:16:40,709 --> 00:16:44,083
Arnold, you may
accidentally be
a genius.

357
00:16:44,083 --> 00:16:45,959
What does a tuna fish
look like?

358
00:16:45,959 --> 00:16:48,334
I don't know.
I never saw one
without mayonnaise.

359
00:16:48,334 --> 00:16:51,626
D.A., quick. There's got to
be a picture of a tuna fish

360
00:16:51,626 --> 00:16:54,250
in one of your books.

361
00:16:56,417 --> 00:16:59,667
Here!
An albacore tuna!

362
00:17:03,125 --> 00:17:03,999
I got it!

363
00:17:03,999 --> 00:17:06,584
I got the connection!

364
00:17:06,999 --> 00:17:09,250
What eats phytoplankton?
Zooplankton!

365
00:17:09,250 --> 00:17:13,000
And what eats zooplankton?
Little fish, like anchovies.

366
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:17,542
And what eats little fish,
like anchovies?

367
00:17:17,542 --> 00:17:18,292
Well...

368
00:17:18,292 --> 00:17:20,292
(kids)
Tuna fish!

369
00:17:20,292 --> 00:17:22,999
Aah!

370
00:17:22,999 --> 00:17:24,999
Aah!

371
00:17:35,167 --> 00:17:37,999
(Arnold)
I knew I should have
stayed home today.

372
00:17:37,999 --> 00:17:43,876
(Ms. Frizzle)
Class, we are now
inside an albacore tuna.

373
00:17:43,876 --> 00:17:46,083
Cheer up, Arnold.
We're off the hook.

374
00:17:46,083 --> 00:17:51,626
We know how your scum
and my tuna fish sandwich
are connected.

375
00:17:51,626 --> 00:17:56,042
You know, it's
a tuna-eat-scum
world out there.

376
00:17:56,042 --> 00:17:59,292
No, no, no. Listen.
Tuna don't eat scum.

377
00:17:59,292 --> 00:18:00,959
Scum gets eaten
by zooplankton,

378
00:18:00,959 --> 00:18:03,918
which get eaten
by little fish, like anchovies,

379
00:18:03,918 --> 00:18:05,375
which get eaten by tuna.

380
00:18:05,375 --> 00:18:07,792
Our report's
in the bag.

381
00:18:07,792 --> 00:18:10,209
But the bag's
in a tuna's tummy.

382
00:18:10,209 --> 00:18:15,999
Who knows what you call
something that's connected?
Linked together?

383
00:18:15,999 --> 00:18:18,167
You mean like a chain?

384
00:18:18,167 --> 00:18:19,999
Very good, Tim!

385
00:18:19,999 --> 00:18:24,125
Tuna are linked
to phytoplankton
by what they eat.

386
00:18:24,125 --> 00:18:25,459
Tuna
and phytoplankton

387
00:18:25,459 --> 00:18:27,709
belong to the same
food chain.

388
00:18:27,709 --> 00:18:32,999
Food chain?
A chain of food?
I could get into that!

389
00:18:32,999 --> 00:18:33,876
Me, too.

390
00:18:33,876 --> 00:18:36,125
Phytoplankton,
zooplankton,
fish, and people, too.

391
00:18:36,125 --> 00:18:40,999
We're all in a food chain--
scum, this fish, and you.

392
00:18:40,999 --> 00:18:44,834
Humans are usually at
the very top of the food chain.

393
00:18:44,834 --> 00:18:49,542
But for once,
we're actually inside it.

394
00:18:50,209 --> 00:18:52,709
We are also
in the perfect position

395
00:18:52,709 --> 00:18:56,834
to study a tuna's
digestive system.

396
00:18:56,834 --> 00:18:57,959
What?
Now?

397
00:18:57,959 --> 00:19:01,209
Ms. Frizzle, do you
think we could go
back to school now?

398
00:19:01,209 --> 00:19:03,999
Arnold and I need
to do our report.

399
00:19:03,999 --> 00:19:05,042
Well, if you insist.

400
00:19:05,042 --> 00:19:09,999
I guess we could leave
the tuna's digestive system
for another day.

401
00:19:09,999 --> 00:19:11,959
Whew.
Way to go.

402
00:19:11,959 --> 00:19:13,417
Close one.

403
00:19:23,209 --> 00:19:25,709
(Ms. Frizzle)
Hmm...

404
00:19:25,709 --> 00:19:28,459
Yes. Very good.

405
00:19:31,751 --> 00:19:34,250
Ok, class.
Take your seats!

406
00:19:34,250 --> 00:19:37,834
Here we go!

407
00:19:37,834 --> 00:19:41,542
(kids)
Help!

408
00:19:43,709 --> 00:19:45,999
Yeeooww!

409
00:19:48,792 --> 00:19:49,709
Nope.

410
00:19:49,709 --> 00:19:52,125
Already have a bus.

411
00:19:52,125 --> 00:19:54,417
(kids)
Look out!

412
00:19:59,999 --> 00:20:03,042
Look out! Whoa!

413
00:20:03,042 --> 00:20:07,042
(Wanda)
This is it, Ralphie!
The wave of our dreams!

414
00:20:07,042 --> 00:20:08,999
When we get back
to the classroom,

415
00:20:08,999 --> 00:20:11,584
we will discuss
our observations.

416
00:20:11,584 --> 00:20:13,125
Surf's up!

417
00:20:13,125 --> 00:20:16,959
Arnold,
do you observe
what I observe?

418
00:20:16,959 --> 00:20:17,999
She's hanging ten.

419
00:20:17,999 --> 00:20:23,459
There really is more
to Ms. Frizzle
than meets the eye.

420
00:20:27,999 --> 00:20:29,834
(Keesha)
So to wrap up
our report,

421
00:20:29,834 --> 00:20:33,542
allow us to show you
the artwork
we've commissioned--

422
00:20:33,542 --> 00:20:34,209
An original Tim.

423
00:20:34,209 --> 00:20:36,792
Here we have
our recent experience--

424
00:20:36,792 --> 00:20:38,167
the ocean food chain.

425
00:20:38,167 --> 00:20:38,999
It works like this.

426
00:20:38,999 --> 00:20:41,999
Scum, or phytoplankton,
are eaten
by zooplankton,

427
00:20:41,999 --> 00:20:45,000
which are eaten
by small fish,
like anchovies,

428
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,042
which are eaten
by big fish, like tuna.

429
00:20:48,042 --> 00:20:50,292
It's so "ef-fish-ient."
[efficient]

430
00:20:50,292 --> 00:20:52,209
(kids)
Carlos!
[laughter]

431
00:20:52,209 --> 00:20:55,584
And this, class,
is a land food chain.

432
00:20:55,584 --> 00:20:57,959
(Tim)
Yeah.
A mouse eats grass seed...

433
00:20:57,959 --> 00:20:59,999
(Wanda)
Snake eats
the mouse...

434
00:20:59,999 --> 00:21:03,542
(Carlos)
And the hawk
eats the snake.

435
00:21:04,999 --> 00:21:08,292
The hawk is at the top
of this food chain.

436
00:21:08,292 --> 00:21:10,959
What's at the bottom? Hmm?

437
00:21:10,959 --> 00:21:12,999
[whispering]

438
00:21:12,999 --> 00:21:13,501
Grass!

439
00:21:13,501 --> 00:21:16,999
So what's at the bottom
of the ocean food chain?

440
00:21:16,999 --> 00:21:19,000
Well, I think--
Phytoplankton!

441
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,999
And what do phytoplankton
and grass have in common?

442
00:21:22,999 --> 00:21:24,250
You step
on them both.

443
00:21:24,250 --> 00:21:26,542
(kids)
Arnold!
[laughter]

444
00:21:26,542 --> 00:21:28,042
They're both plants.

445
00:21:28,042 --> 00:21:29,459
(Keesha)
Hey, wait a minute!

446
00:21:29,459 --> 00:21:32,834
Do all food chains
begin with plants?

447
00:21:32,834 --> 00:21:34,334
Yes, they do!

448
00:21:34,334 --> 00:21:36,709
Each and every one
of them!

449
00:21:36,709 --> 00:21:39,334
(all)
Yay!

450
00:21:39,334 --> 00:21:42,999
Well, if scum and a tuna fish
sandwich are connected,

451
00:21:42,999 --> 00:21:48,042
I guess just about everything
must be connected somehow, huh?

452
00:21:48,042 --> 00:21:51,125
Hey! Where's my shoe?

453
00:21:57,918 --> 00:21:59,959
burp

454
00:22:14,999 --> 00:22:17,542
[squawks]

455
00:22:20,999 --> 00:22:23,667
Nature never ceases
to amaze me.

456
00:22:23,667 --> 00:22:29,125
As I always say,
"If the shoe is clean,
wear it."

457
00:22:29,125 --> 00:22:32,709
[laughter]

458
00:22:41,584 --> 00:22:42,792
Is this the
Magic School Bus?

459
00:22:42,792 --> 00:22:44,542
Is this the Magic
School Bus?

460
00:22:44,542 --> 00:22:45,999
Magic School Bus?
Magic School Bus?

461
00:22:45,999 --> 00:22:48,999
Magic School Bus?
Magic School Bus?

462
00:22:48,999 --> 00:22:49,584
Magic School Bus?

463
00:22:49,584 --> 00:22:51,876
Magic School Bus?
Magic School Bus?

464
00:22:51,876 --> 00:22:52,999
I want the Magic
School Bus.

465
00:22:52,999 --> 00:22:57,042
(children)
I want
the Magic School Bus!

466
00:22:57,042 --> 00:22:59,334
[telephone ringing]

467
00:23:07,250 --> 00:23:07,626
Hello.

468
00:23:07,626 --> 00:23:10,501
(boy)
Hi. Is this
Big Al's Total
Pig-Out Emporium?

469
00:23:10,501 --> 00:23:13,709
I'd like to order
a toasted Big Al
special with--

470
00:23:13,709 --> 00:23:15,999
Whoa, whoa.
Wait a second.
Wrong number.

471
00:23:15,999 --> 00:23:18,501
This the Magic
School Bus show.

472
00:23:18,501 --> 00:23:21,417
No way! I was just
watching it.

473
00:23:21,417 --> 00:23:23,042
That's why I was
so hungry.

474
00:23:23,042 --> 00:23:25,751
Maybe you can clear up
a few things.

475
00:23:25,751 --> 00:23:26,125
I'll try.

476
00:23:26,125 --> 00:23:28,999
People are on top
of the food chain, right?

477
00:23:28,999 --> 00:23:29,918
Except I don't eat
just tuna.

478
00:23:29,918 --> 00:23:34,999
I eat lots of things,
so am I on top of
lots of food chains?

479
00:23:34,999 --> 00:23:35,375
You are.

480
00:23:35,375 --> 00:23:38,292
So, what do you call
a lot of chains
put together?

481
00:23:38,292 --> 00:23:41,751
A pile? Am I at the top
of a food pile?

482
00:23:41,751 --> 00:23:46,459
A lot of different chains mixed
together are called a food web.

483
00:23:46,459 --> 00:23:49,999
I get it! So if things
are connected in a chain,

484
00:23:49,999 --> 00:23:53,375
what if something happens
to one part of the chain?

485
00:23:53,375 --> 00:23:54,751
Well, it'll make
something happen

486
00:23:54,751 --> 00:23:56,209
to everything else
in the chain.

487
00:23:56,209 --> 00:23:57,667
It's all connected.

488
00:23:57,667 --> 00:24:00,375
OK, but you know,
it's not true

489
00:24:00,375 --> 00:24:01,999
that all food chains
start with plants.

490
00:24:01,999 --> 00:24:03,834
I read about some
plants and animals

491
00:24:03,834 --> 00:24:04,999
living deep in the ocean

492
00:24:04,999 --> 00:24:07,459
that get their energy
from chemicals.

493
00:24:07,459 --> 00:24:09,999
Yes, but they're weird.

494
00:24:09,999 --> 00:24:12,501
Weird? You say
they're weird?

495
00:24:12,501 --> 00:24:15,209
Since when does a tuna
eat a school bus?

496
00:24:15,209 --> 00:24:17,250
Well, it could if the
bus were small enough

497
00:24:17,250 --> 00:24:19,999
and looked like
a delicious anchovy.

498
00:24:19,999 --> 00:24:21,876
Yes, but you and I
both know

499
00:24:21,876 --> 00:24:23,083
school buses don't shrink

500
00:24:23,083 --> 00:24:24,999
and they don't go
in the ocean.

501
00:24:24,999 --> 00:24:27,292
Magic school
buses do.

502
00:24:27,292 --> 00:24:29,709
Being magic can make
all the difference.

503
00:24:29,709 --> 00:24:33,459
And Ms. Frizzle
must be magic.

504
00:24:33,459 --> 00:24:34,292
Why do you say that?

505
00:24:34,292 --> 00:24:35,834
Because somehow
she can hang ten

506
00:24:35,834 --> 00:24:38,876
between math lessons
and report marking.

507
00:24:38,876 --> 00:24:39,667
[laughs]

508
00:24:39,667 --> 00:24:41,042
Yeah, I guess
you're right.

509
00:24:41,042 --> 00:24:44,209
Thanks for calling.
Bye.

510
00:24:50,209 --> 00:24:54,209
