[Beep beep]

Is there really a dinosaur
here dr. Skeledon?

Uh-huh

Come on over here kids!

Well... There she is

What do you think?

Wow!
A real live dinosaur!

Actually ralphie

It's dead

But, what are they doing to it?

Diggin' up and dust busting

The fossilized bones of dinosaurs is the

Only way we paleontologists have of

Tuning in on what a bona fide dinosaur

Really looked like

So that's just another
d.o.a. Huh dr. Skeledon?

A d.o.a.?

A dinosaur out of action

[Laughs]

That's good

Actually carlos it's a t.r.o.a.

A tyrannosaurus rex out of action

Wow a t-rex! The k*ller of the K*llers!

The meanest of the mean!

I don't think dinosaurs are so terrible

Then how come the word dinosaur
means terrible lizard?

According to my research
dinosaurs were not lizards

That's right dorothy anne
they weren't

But they were reptiles just like
the lizards of today

And most of them [laughs]
weren't very terrible

How do we really know?

Dinosaurs became extinct so long ago

No human being ever saw one

Even if they could have seen one

They wouldn't have lived to tell about it

Now what makes you
so sure of that carlos?

Ms. Frizzle: yoo-hoo

Kids: ms. Frizzle!

A teacher-saurus!

Anyone know what you call
a 65 million year old dinosaur egg?

Egg-stink!

[Laughs]
get it? Extinct!

Haha good yolk miss frizzle

So everyone digging the dig?

Yeah! It's great!
-We love it!

From the looks of things valerie

You really got into it yourself
[laughs]

Just like old times huh carmina?

Like the time we went to scotland
in search of the loch ness monster?

That must've been in prehistoric times

I heard that arnold

[Laughs]

Here bonesy, add this to your collection

[Gasps]

Fantabulous!

One of the best examples of a
fossilized egg I've ever seen!

[Beep beep]

Oh!
Come along class

Sorry to dig and run bonesy

But we have to get back

Thanks for a peek at the past

Ah what are 'ol friends for val

Leave no stone unturned!
That's my motto

Um speaking of stones dr. Skeledon

Can I see that rock?
I mean egg?

Sure arnold,
just be careful with it

We don't find many of these

Wow I have some great rocks at home

But nothing like this one

Too bad we couldn't find a

Real live t-rex instead of that rock

Oh just think about it!

All that fighting and slaughtering...

Now that would have been a field trip!

As far as I'm concerned,

The only safe dinosaur
is a dead dinosaur

Come on you guys

Dinosaurs couldn't've been that mean

Get real phoebe!

Dinosaurs are the biggest and meanest

Animals that ever lived

You know carlos,
to really understand a dinosaur

You need to walk in its shoes

Isn't that right bonesy?

With knobs on it val!

Dr. 'S' come quick!

Bye kids,
I'm history

Wait! Dr. Skeledon your rock!

[Bus doors close]

Buckle up arnold

But I've still got
dr. Skeledon's rock!

You'll have plenty of time to give
it to her when we get back

Get back?

[Groans]

Why do I have a
sneaking suspicion?

[Arnold screams]

[Class screams]

[Magic school bus tune]

Ms. Frizzle: as I always say-
you can turn the clock back-

-If you've got the right hands

[Grunts]

Right liz?

Here we go!

Ms. Frizzle: wah-hoo!

Is it just me? Or did
someone hit rewind?

The dig is undigging!

We're going back in time!

Wow! We've never done this before

Wow!...

At this rate
we're gonna be unborn!

Now I'll never know what
I was gonna be when I grow up

On the other hand phoebe

There is no time like the past...

To take chances! Make mistakes!
And get messy!

[Wind blowing]

[Mammoth trumpeting]

Why is it so c-cold?

[Shivers]

Because...
We're back in the i-ice age!

That was a million years ago!

Oh isn't there somewhere warm
where we can go ms. Frizzle?

Not some where wanda, some when!

Wow!

I think we're breaking the first
time travel speed limit!

Look the volcano!

It's unerupting!

We're almost there!

Just a few million years to go

Goodness gracious!
We've reached the lake cretaceous!

[Gasps]

We've gone so far back in time

That dr. Skeledon's rock
has unfossilized back into an egg

What did you egg-spect arnold?

Once an egg [laughs]
always an egg

But what's dr. Skeledon going to say?

Now don't worry arnold

You've got plenty of time

Millions of years in fact

Now let's get out there and explore!

[Gasping]

Oh! The best thing about time travel

Is that it's easy on the tires

Um? Heh ms. Frizzle?
How far back have we come?

Oh 67 million years
give or take a month or two

[Kids shouting]
-67 million years!?

That means we'll probably see...

[Large footsteps]

[Dinosaur grunts]

[Kids shouting]
dinosaurs!

[Kids gasping]

[Dinosaur growls]

Run!

Oh no!

[Liz gasps]

Thanks liz

Dr. Skeledon wouldn't have
been very happy if her egg broke

I wonder what kind of
dinosaur laid an egg this big

[Grunt]

What?

Hey!

Hang on phoebe!

I'm trying!

Ugh!

Come back with my egg
you thief!

It doesn't belong to you!

[Grunts]

Come to think of it,
it doesn't belong to me either

Arnold!

Now now don't play with
your food little alamosaurus

[Gasps]

Oh bad! Oh bad! Oh bad!
Bad! Bad! Bad! Bad!

[Grunts]

Hurry!

Before it eats us for lunch!

Seems to me it wants to eat
the leaves not us

Tim they're still dinosaurs

Ferocious! Mean! Nasty!

Di-no-saurs!

[Animal calls]

[Dinosaur footsteps]

Quick! On to the bus before
they come back!

But ralphie,
I think they're plant eaters

Not meat eaters

Yeah but what if they're
just taking a break

Between the salad and the main course!
Us!

I don't know carlos I think maybe
salad was the main course

Mmm... A perplexing
proposition isn't it

Are dinosaurs ferocious?

Or friendly?
Sweet? Or savage?

Murderous? Or...?

What is it liz?

Arnold?

[Gasps]

Phoebe?

An ornithomimus?

See! I knew this would happen!...

The dinos did em in!

Any sign of them dorothy anne?

Not yet

[Animal call]

What... Was that?

The sound of a hungry dinosaur
ordering an arnold burger...

...and phoebe fries to go!

The noise is coming from
a bunch of parasaurolophus

Drinking water and eating plants

Maybe those monsters
already ate arnold and phoebe

Clothes and all!

How can you even think that?

They're just minding their own business

Yeah... Sure

Now they're washing em
down with a drink of water

You heartless!...

Carlos did you ever think
maybe they're just thirsty

Yeah... Like thirsty for arnold

Come back here you eggnapper!

[Dinosaur growls]

Nice dinosaur... Good boy

You think he's a plant eater
or-or a meat eater

I don't know, maybe he only eats eggs

And little kids...

Come on arnold, let him go

It's just an egg

But it's dr. Skeledon's egg

And it's up to me to get it back to her

Gee, what a guy

According to my research those
horn things help them to...

Stab their innocent victims!

No, carlos

Help them make noises!

Is it really noise?

Maybe, it's their way
of talking to each other?

Talking to each other? Yeah right...

They're saying mmm...

That guy with the glasses was good!

Actually, I think they were
talking about us

Ms. Frizzle: now class, let's not time
travel to any hasty conclusions

Ms. Frizzle's right...

They're not acting
like bloodthirsty K*llers

Chalk up another vegetarian liz

Hey! Look!
There's arnold and phoebe

They're still alive!

Yeah!
Woo-hoo!

Let me see!

That critter they're chasing looks
awful small to be a dinosaur

Ms. Frizzle: oh don't judge an
ornithomimus by its cover carlos

Dinosaurs come in all shapes and sizes

Hey if we could just send
a message to those

Pair of whatchamacallits
to get out of the way

We could get across the river
and save arnold and phoebe

[Beep beep]

Dino-mite idea carlos

[Magic school bus tune]

[Animal calls]

It worked! They're leaving!

They got the message!

Ms. Frizzle:
♪ over the river and through the woods

To arnold's and phoebe's rescue we go ♪

[Kids yelling]
whoa!

Ugh!
-Ugh! -Ugh!

Oops maybe not

Where are we?

Look eggshells!

It kind of looks like a nest I once found

Exact-amento wanda, and since most of

These shells are pretty trampled, I'd say
the babies hatched a few months ago

Uh? What kind of babies?

Big ones!

And here comes mama!

Doesn't look to me like she wants to fight

Maybe she thinks... We're her babies...

And just wants to take care of us...
Like a good mother should

If she sees us!... She'll eat us!

Dive for cover!

Oh no! What if she wants to...
Feed us!

[Dinosaur spits food on kids]

Gross!

Berries that have been chewed and spewed

Are nutritious and delicious

And the babies just love
a good a.b.c. Fruit salad

What's an a.b.c. Fruit salad?

Already been chewed!

[Laughing]

I say we make a run for it
before we're d.e.f.

D.e.f.? What's that?

Digested eliminated and forgotten!

Carlos, wait! They're not meat eaters!

They're even good mothers

Ms. Frizzle: come on class

[Sniffs]

[Dinosaur shrieks]

[Snoring]

Are you sure that dinosaur
came up this way?

[Panting]

I'm only sure of one thing phoebe...

If someone would have
told me that I'd be

Chasing a hungry dinosaur, I would've

Gotten off the bus
a few million years sooner

I knew the bus would
be around here somewhere

[Laughs] looks like it made some friends

Friends? Are you kidding?

Come on! We've gotta
find arnold and phoebe

Before it's too late!

Before those dinos!...
-Don't say it carlos

The triceratops won't hurt us!

They're plant eaters
just like the others

Here you go little one

[Laughing]

[Dinosaur shrieks]

Uh-oh it's a pack of troodons!

And they do eat meat!

No kidding!

That's not a head of lettuce he's chasing

Oh bad!

Cool! The troodons can't
get to the baby triceratops

Because the big ones are protecting it!

Oh good

But they can get us!

[Kids screaming]

[Troodon shrieks]

Not with these they can't!

Tricerashields!

My own little invention of course

[Suspensful music]

What are they doing now?

They're trying to figure out
which one of us to eat first

I don't think so carlos, looks to me like
they want an easy lunch without a fight

The horns scared them away!

They were afraid of getting hurt!

Phoebe! The egg! It's next to
that big rock!

[Sighs]
now dr. Skeledon won't be mad at me

It's stuck!

[Struggling]

Something tells me we shouldn't be here

Like what?

[Egg pops free]

[T-rex roars]

Like that!

Run!

[T-rex roars]

[T-rex roars]

Oh no!

What's that noise?

Sounds like thunder!

Whatever it is!, It's scaring
the triceratops!

Stampede!

Wow that's the last stampede
I want to be in

Yeah we could have been dino dust!

But the triceratops weren't after us,

They just wanted to get away
from the troodon

Well we still have to find phoebe and...

...arnold! [All yelling]

There's the bus arnold!

Faster!

Is it just me or is that a real life
tyrannosaurus rex behind them!?

Ms. Frizzle: correctosaurus ralphie!

And the t-rex was the
biggest meat eater of all time!

Or should I say is?

Come on! Hurry!

You can make it!

Oh no, I'm dead meat now

Arnold!

[Gasps]

[T-rex roars]

[Panting]

He's gonna eat us!

[T-rex snorts on bus]

Whoa! Dino breath!

Oh bad! When was the
last time you brushed?

[Kids screaming]

Help!

Tell it to stop!

Go away!

Oh! I wonder if this insurance policy
covers dino damage?

[Kids screaming]

[T-rex roars]

[Kids screaming]

Hey you big bully! Leave my class alone!

Why doesn't he pick on someone
his own size?

Maybe he's on a diet?

Maybe he's afraid to get hurt?
Remember the troodons?

Ms. Frizzle: [gasps] you know this
would be the perfect opportunity

To study the digestive system of a t-rex

[Kids in unison]
ms. Frizzle! Do something!

Ms. Frizzle: okay class!

Think big!

Oh great! Nothing happened!

[Large footstep]

Excuse me?

[Kids in unison]
arnold?

You can put the bus down now

Get em arnold!

Give it to em!

Come on short arms!

Put up your dukes!

[Bus drops to ground]

Thank you

[T-rex roars]

Grrr!

[T-rex roars]

Oh yeah?

Hoo-ya!

Gee, the t-rex doesn't act so tough
against someone his own size

Yaa! Yaaaa!

Yay!

Way to go arnold!

You did it!

Boy! Did you look mean arnold!

[Laughs]
we all know you're really not

And you didn't even have
to throw a punch

You know something?

I don't think the t-rex wanted

To fight any more than I did

And he certainly didn't want
to take any chances...

Or get messy!

One thing's for sure

There are a lot more plant eating

Dinosaurs than meat eaters

And those that do eat meat aren't
bloodthirsty monsters!

Yeah! They're just looking
for a quick meal without getting hurt

So, I guess you guys are right...

Dinosaurs aren't so mean after all

And I can give dr. Skeledon back her egg

Except, I'm too big to fit into the bus...

With a few adjustments
you could be the bus!

[Other kids]
ralphie!

Ms. Frizzle: well, time to go small!
[Laughs]

[Arnold screams]

It's a good thing you didn't
stay home today arnold

Well uh, well, I'll sure be glad
when this is a rock again

It's a lot safer

Ms. Frizzle: let's go class

We've got a long drive back to school!

[Laughs]
yeah! Like 67 million years!

Fun sure flies when you're
having a good tiiiiiime!

[Magic school bus tune]

Wa-hoo!

[Kids cheering]

Dr. Skeledon! Dr. Skeledon! I almost forgot
to give you back your egg

Oh I'm sure it was safe
with you arnold, thanks.

Up here dr. S!

What an unusual geologic formation!

Ms. Frizzle: hmm? I wonder
what strange creature left that?

I'd say it was a sneakersaurus!

[Other kids in unison]
carlos!

[Laughing]

[Magic school bus tune]

[Magic school bus tune]

[Phone dialing]

Is this the magic school bus?

Is this the magic school bus?

Magic school bus? Magic school bus?

Magic school bus? Magic school bus?

Magic school bus?

Magic school bus? Magic school bus?

I want the magic school bus.

Children: I want the magic school bus!

[Phone ringing]

Hello, is this the magic school bus?

For me?

Hello, this is
dr. Carmina skeledon speaking

Is this the dr. Skeledon that was
just on the magic school bus show?

Why, yes!

What can I do for you?

Well, I've been trying
to reach the producer,

But he's all tied up and
I have some probing questions

About the dinosaur show I just saw

Dig away!

First of all everyone knows
that nobody's ever

Seen a real live dinosaur

You're absolutely right...

But we do see lots of fossils
of the bones

Which make up their skeletons

Okay so then how can you
say which dinosaurs

Were herbivores and which were carnivores?

Oh! That's easy! Fossil teeth!

The plant eaters you see
had flat grinding teeth

And the meat eaters
had pointy cutting teeth

Well, thank you for calling, goodbye

[Laughs]

Kids these days, they
are just, so inquisitive

[Phone ringing]

Hello?

Hi, I was wondering...

If nobody's ever seen
a real live dinosaur

Then how could you possibly
know that a parasaurolophus

Made a noise like this

[Parasaurolophus noise]

Oh that's very good

And you are right...

No one knows exactly
how dinosaurs behave

Or what they sounded like

You see we use our imaginations
and make educated guesses

So all that stuff about
the t-rex not being so mean

Was another one of your
educated guesses right?

Absolutely right,
thanks for calling

Wait a minute!

So no one's ever traveled back in time

And seen real dinosaurs?

Absolutely not!

Time travel is impossible!

Even for ms. Frizzle?
Oh even for ms. Frizzle

Thanks a lot doc

Ah like it or not, I don't think

Even ms. Frizzle could go back in time

Still, it would make
a good field trip...

If it were possible
