Max, hurry up.

We have to go now.

Stay home.

[Chuckles] no, max, you can't stay home.

We're going to louise's on the bus.

It's going to be here any...

[Engine sputtering]

Oh, minute.

I'd better go check the bus schedule

And find out when the next bus is.

You need to stop playing with your ear splitter space rocket

And get ready to go.

[Rocket speaking] greetings, earthling.

[Light whimsical music]

♪ ♪

The next bus is in two minutes.

I'll just call louise and let her know

We're on a later bus.

(Rocket) blast off.

Max, you're still playing.

We have to go.

Stay home.

You can't stay home, max.

We're going to louise's.

[Louise speaking indistinctly over phone]

Hi, louise, it's ruby.

We missed the bus.

Yes.

But there's another bus in two minutes,

And we'll be on that one.

[Sputtering noise]

Okay, bye.

I have my purse

Whoa.

Emergency. Emergency.

Hurry, max,

Or we'll miss the bus.

I've got your ear splitter space rocket.

Now let's go outside and wait for the bus.

Stay home.

Max, we have to leave right now,

Or we'll miss the next...

Hi, louise?

[Louise speaking indistinctly over phone]

It's me again.

Yes, I'm sorry, but we missed another bus.

I know, but we'll catch the next one.

I promise.

Okay, bye.

(Ambulance) emergency. Emergency.

Okay, max, you can take

Your rescue ranger emergency ambulance

And your ear splitter space rocket

Over to louise's.

But we have to hurry.

The next bus is coming soon.

Now, you wait here while I check the schedule.

Good, we have plenty of time to catch the next one.

Okay, max, I have your ear splitter space rocket,

And I have your rescue ranger emergency ambulance,

And I have my purse with money for the bus tickets.

Let's go.

(Max) stay home.

[Clanging noise]

Okay, you can bring your rock crusher dump truck

And your fire truck too.

You can bring whatever you want.

Just hurry.

All right, max,

I'd better get a tote bag to put all this in.

Don't go anywhere, max.

[Engine sputtering]

Bus.

Oh, no, we missed another one.

Now I'll have to check the schedule again.

There's only one more bus.

We have to catch that one.

Okay, max,

I'm packing your ear splitter space rocket

And your rescue ranger emergency ambulance

And your rock crusher dump truck

And your fire truck--

Even your red rubber elephant.

Now let's go catch that bus.

Stay home.

Max,

Come out and close the door.

Hurry.

[Sighs]

[Slow whimsical music]

♪ ♪

I can't believe we're finally going to catch the bus

To louise's.

Oh, good, here comes the bus.

Now I'll just get the money out for our tick--

Oh, no, my purse.

I left it inside.

You wait there, max.

I'll be right back.

[Brakes squealing]

(Max) bus.

(Ruby) wait. Wait.

Oh, good.

[Hissing noise]

No!

[Sighs]

That was the last bus, max.

Now we can't go to louise's and play.

(Louise) hi, ruby.

[Gasps]

Louise.

What are you doing here?

I got tired of waiting,

So I decided to take the bus here.

That's great.

We're going to have so much fun.

[Giggling]

What do you want to do?

Stay home.

[Laughing]

[Light whimsical music]

♪ ♪

Look, everyone, this is a perfect place

To plant our marigolds.

There's nice rich soil here.

Marigolds love that,

Especially if it has worms in it.

Worm cake.

That's disgusting, max.

We're going to make a marigold garden,

Aren't we, curly shirley?

There's just the right amount of sunlight here.

Marigolds need sunlight to turn yellow and stay yellow.

Max, what are you doing with my gardening trowel?

Worm cake.

No, max,

You can't make a worm cake here.

I'm planting my dolly's marigold garden.

Okay, max,

Come over here.

You can make your disgusting worm cake

Over here.

Put anything you like in it over here.

I'll plant my marigolds over there.

Now, where is it?

There it is--

A perfect marigold trowel.

[Door closes]

[Splotching noise]

Splat

Worm cake.

Okay, now I'm ready to start planting my marigolds.

We learned all about planting marigolds at school.

If you watch very carefully and listen to everything I say,

You'll know what marigolds need to grow big and beautiful.

Hmm, what we need is some water

To loosen the soil up.

[Splotching noise]

Splat

[Trickling noise]

Marigolds need water, just like you and I do.

If they don't have water, they just shrivel up and die.

See, rapunzel?

That water will make it much easier to dig.

Now we'll save all this soil till later.

Then we'll put it around the marigolds' roots

To keep them warm at night.

Marigolds need soil in their bed

Just like we need blankets on our bed.

When you're digging,

You should always be on the lookout

For things that marigolds need.

Clang

What's that?

Look what I found.

Stones.

See?

This is what I'm talking about.

You need stones when you're planting marigolds too.

They help hold the water around the roots

So the marigolds can drink.

Okay, I think the hole is deep enough.

Now I'll get one of the most important things

Marigolds need.

Now, where is it?

There it is.

Perfect.

[Door closes]

This is organic plant food.

Marigolds need organic plant food

Just like max and I need strawberry jam sandwiches.

Okay, now I think I've got everything:

The hole, water, soil, worms, stones, plant food.

Check.

That's everything.

Oops, I forgot the most important thing of all:

The marigolds.

Now, where did I put them?

There they are.

Splat

Aren't they beautiful?

I knew you'd like them.

Now comes the final step.

We put the marigolds in the hole.

Next, we put some water in.

[Light trickling noise]

What happened to all the water?

Where are the worms and the stones

And the plant food and the soil?

Max.

What did you do with them?

Worm cake.

Max,

You used everything for your worm cake.

Now I can't plant marigolds in my dolly's garden.

I don't want your disgusting worm cake.

I want the things my marigolds need

To grow big and beautiful.

Don't you remember what they need, max?

Splat

[Light patting noise]

Worm cake.

[Gasps]

Thank you, max.

[Dripping noise]

[Ruby humming]

Oh, it's raining, mr. Quack.

Let's get you and mrs. Quack inside

Before you get all wet.

[Rain falling]

We'd better go inside.

Max, it's raining.

We have to go inside.

Outside.

No, max, we can't stay outside.

It's raining.

Outside.

All right, max, we can play outside in the rain,

But only if we're dressed for the rain.

Come on inside, and we'll put on our rain clothes.

Outside.

[Light whimsical music]

♪ ♪

[Chuckles] that was close.

We nearly got all wet.

Outside.

Not yet, max.

We have to get dressed for the rain first,

Or we'll get soaked.

Okay, max, all our rain clothes are here.

You put yours on, and I'll put mine on.

First we'll put our boots on.

Rubber boots will keep our feet nice and dry in the rain.

Now, which rain boots should I wear?

Outside.

Max, you can't go outside

Until you've got all your rain clothes on.

Remember?

Now, put the boot on your foot, max.

Let's see.

I have two pairs of boots: one red and one yellow.

Which one should I wear?

I'll ask my dolls.

[Plopping noise]

What do you think?

[Light squeaking noise in time with footsteps]

Max, where are you going?

Outside.

Uh, uh, uh, max.

You can't go outside with one boot on.

Come on.

[Squeaking noise continues]

You have to put your other boot on too.

I think you're right, curly shirley.

The red boots are much nicer.

[Gasps] max?

Where are you going now?

Outside.

[Laughs] no, not yet, max.

Hmm, something doesn't sound right.

Let me check those boots.

You've got them on the wrong feet.

Here, let me help you, max.

You have your right boot on your left foot

And your left boot on your right foot.

Now let's put your left boot on your left foot--

There--

And your right boot on your right foot,

Like that.

[Light squeaking noise]

Perfect.

Now, where was i?

Oh, yes, I have to put my other boot on.

[Ruby humming frere jacques]

♪ ♪

Hold it, max.

Where do you think you're going?

Outside.

[Giggles]

Max, you need more than boots to go out in the rain.

You need a raincoat.

We call this a slicker.

It's so slick,

The rain just slides off it.

[Puckering noises]

That will keep the rain off your whole body.

And I'll put my slicker on too.

Outside.

Max, you're still not ready to go out in the rain.

You have to put your rain hat on

To keep the rain off your head.

[Giggles] oops, let's fix that.

There.

Now we're both covered from head to toe,

And we're ready for the rain--

Except for one more thing:

An umbrella.

There's one for me and one for you.

With umbrellas over our heads,

We won't have to worry about getting any rain on us anywhere.

Oh, no, max, never open an umbrella in the house.

That's bad luck.

Outside.

[Chuckles] yes, max, now we can go outside.

We're all dressed for the rain.

Okay, max, now that we're outside,

We can put our umbrellas up.

Are you ready?

Okay, one, two, three.

Let them go.

There, now we can play outside as long as we like,

And we won't feel a drop of rain.

This is fun.

[Birds chirping]

Oh, we're all dressed for the rain,

And now it stopped.

I guess we should go back inside

And take our rain clothes off.

[Trickling noise]

There's no point wearing rain clothes

If there's no rain.

Let's go, max.

The clouds are gone, and the sun is out.

How can it be raining?

Hey.

Rain.

[Laughs] max--

Thanks, max.
