The Puzzle of the Sphinx.

Art, sculpture, and architecture...

by the ancient Egyptians.

And music.

We are flying
over the deserts of Egypt

in our favorite Rocket ship, Rocket.

[Rocket dinging]

Hey, look.
Rocket is putting together a puzzle.

[Rocket dinging]

He loves puzzles.
Do you like puzzles?

Great!

Look at this puzzle.

What do you think the picture is?

It's a train. Oh, yeah!

Way to solve the puzzle, Rocket.

[Rocket dinging]

-Whew. It sure is hot in a desert.
-[Rocket dinging]

Look, look, look!
There's our friend, the Great Sphinx.

He's saying hello.

The Great Sphinx sounds very excited.

Let's say hello to the Great Sphinx.

Wave your hand and say,
"Hello, Great Sphinx."

[all]
Hello, Great Sphinx.

[violin playing]

The sphinx says
he has something to show us.

What is it, Great Sphinx?

-Cool! The sphinx has a new puzzle.
-[Rocket dinging]

Ooh! It's a magic puzzle.

A magic puzzle
does an amazing magic trick

when you put
all the pieces together.

I can't wait to see the magic trick.

[violin playing]

The sphinx wants the Little Einsteins

to help him put
the magic puzzle together.

[Rocket dinging]

Let's see.

This puzzle
has one, two, three puzzle pieces.

Uh-oh. All the puzzle pieces
are bouncing away.

Oh, no! The three puzzle pieces
bounced so far away!

[violin playing]

The Great Sphinx is so sad.

He really wanted
to put together the magic puzzle.

-[Rocket dings]
-Aw...

Rocket is telling
the Great Sphinx not to feel sad.

[Rocket dinging]

Rocket can find
the magic puzzle pieces!

Yeah. If Rocket finds
the magic puzzle pieces,

then the sphinx can put together
his magic puzzle.

[violin playing]

Look.
The sphinx is starting to smile.

Rocket, he's feeling happier.

But look! There's an hourglass!

Uh-oh. We need
to put the pieces together

before all the sand
gets to the bottom.

Or else the puzzle
won't do its magic.

-[violin playing]
-[Rocket dinging]

Don't worry, Great Sphinx.

Rocket will find the puzzle pieces,
and fast.

But he's going to need our help.

Will you help Rocket find

the magic puzzle pieces
for the sphinx?

Great!

[violin playing]

We've got a mission.

We're going to find the puzzle pieces
and put together the magic puzzle.

Let the mission...

begin!

Buckle your seatbelts.

[all]
Seatbelts buckled!

Prepare for blastoff.

We need to give Rocket
a lot of power.

Put your hands on your lap
and pat with us.

Pat, pat, pat, pat,
pat, pat, pat, pat.

Faster!

Pat, pat, pat, pat, pat.

Now raise your arms
as high as you can

and say, "Blastoff!"

[all]
Blastoff!

Hold on tight, because here we go!

-Whoo-hoo!
-Right!

We are going to find
the three missing puzzle pieces

so the sphinx can put together
his magic puzzle.

[horn playing]

Listen.
I hear one of the puzzle pieces.

It's coming from that river
down there.

The Nile River!

Rocket, follow the Nile River.

All right!

Rocket turned into a boat!

A paddleboat!

[horn playing]

That sounds
like the magic puzzle piece.

Do you see the puzzle piece?

Yeah! There it is, right over there
by the Aswan High Dam.

-Paddle that way, Rocket.
-[music playing]

Uh-oh. It sounds like something else
is in the Nile River!

What is it?

It's Nile Crocodile!

And he's chasing Rocket! Yikes!

Oh, no! He's really fast!

We need to go faster
to get away from him.

I have a plan.

I can do a rolling arm dance

to help Rocket
turn his paddle wheels

round and round
as fast as they can go.

But I need you to do it with me.

Put your arms in front of you
and roll them around and around,

like this.

That's it. Roll your arms with me.

It's working! Rocket's going faster!

And he's getting closer
to the puzzle piece.

But look!
Nile Crocodile is speeding up, too!

Rocket needs to paddle faster!

Roll your arms faster.

Wow! Rocket is going so fast!

He's almost to the puzzle piece.

Roll your arms as fast as you can.

Whoo-hoo! Hurray!

Rocket got
the first magic puzzle piece.

[Rocket beeping]

Rocket's saying thank you

for helping him paddle so fast.

And look!

Nile Crocodile
got his snout stuck in the dam!

Look, Great Sphinx.

Rocket got the first piece
for your magic puzzle.

[horn playing]

Ooh. Now we can see
the first part of the picture.

We're helping the Great Sphinx
solve his magic puzzle!

[violin playing]

Look!
The sphinx is starting to smile!

He's getting happier.

He can't wait to see

what the magic puzzle picture
is going to be.

Well, we have to find
two more magic puzzle pieces.

And we'd better hurry.

We need to find them
before all the sand

gets to the bottom
of the hourglass.

Come on, Little Einsteins.

[horn playing]

Ooh. Listen.

I hear another magic puzzle piece.

It's coming
from the Temple of Ramses III.

Rocket, land down there.

I don't hear
the second puzzle piece anymore.

I wonder where it is.

[Rocket dinging]

Look. Rocket found music signs.

One of the music signs can tell us
the way to the puzzle piece.

But, Leo, we don't know which one.

I can help.

The puzzle piece song has 14 notes.

So we need to find
the sign that has 14 notes.

Let's look at the first sign.

Count the notes with me.



Is that the right number of notes?

No. That song only has 6 notes.

That's not the right sign.

We need to follow
the sign that has 14 notes.

Let's see if this sign has 14 notes.

Count the notes with me.







Is that the right number of notes?

Yes! Great counting!

This sign has 14 notes,
just like the puzzle piece song.

This way to the magic puzzle piece!

Ooh! The second puzzle piece
has got to be in here somewhere.

[horn playing]

I hear it!

Do you see where the magic
puzzle piece is hiding?

Yes, there it is!

[giggles]
It's on the statue's head!

-[Rocket dinging]
-Way to go, Rocket.

You got
the second magic puzzle piece.

Let's bring it back to the sphinx.

He's going to be so excited!

Rocket's telling the Great Sphinx

that he found
the second magic puzzle piece.

[violin playing]

Look! The Great Sphinx is smiling.

He's getting happier.

[horns playing]

Wow! Now the sphinx can see
even more of his magic puzzle.

We've almost put together
the whole thing.

[violin playing]

Just one more piece to go.

But there's not much time left.

All the sand is almost
at the bottom of the hourglass.

Come on, team. The sphinx needs us
to find that last puzzle piece.

I wonder
where the last magic puzzle piece is.

[beeping]

Good idea, Rocket.

Let's listen to see if we can hear
the puzzle piece song.

[horn playing]

Do you hear the puzzle piece song?

Yes! The last magic puzzle piece
must be close by.

It has to be down there somewhere.

Can you find
the last magic puzzle piece?

Yes! There it is, by the tree!

And there it goes!

It's bouncing towards those pyramids!

Oh, no. We have to catch
that bouncing puzzle piece.

Rocket, put out your pogo bouncer.

Whoo-hoo!

Way to go, Rocket!

Uh-oh. The magic puzzle piece

is bouncing high over
the first big pyramid.

We have to help Rocket
jump really high to follow it.

I have an idea!

I know a great jumping song.

It's called "Aida."

Can you say "Aida"?

Aida. Great!
When I put my hand up, start singing.

When I put my hand down,
stop singing, like this.

♪ Aida ♪

That will help make Rocket jump.

Come on.
Here comes the first big pyramid.

Sing with me!

♪ Aida ♪

Great singing! We helped Rocket
jump over the first big pyramid.

But look!

The puzzle piece jumped over
the second pyramid!

And it did an even longer jump.

We need more jumping power.

We have to hold the last note
of our song even longer.

Remember, keep singing
until I put my hand down.

♪ Aida ♪

We did it! We helped Rocket
jump over the bigger pyramid!

We are getting closer
to the last puzzle piece!

Whoa! The puzzle piece
jumped over the third pyramid.

And it's the biggest pyramid
of them all.

We need to hold
the last note even longer.

Get ready.

♪ Aida ♪

We did it! Hurray!

[Rocket dinging]

And look! Rocket caught
the last magic puzzle piece!

-Awesome!
-Yippee!

Thanks for singing with me.

Now the Great Sphinx
can finish his magic puzzle.

-[violin playing]
-It's the Great Sphinx.

[violin playing]

[beeping]

Oh, no.

He says that there are only

a few grains of sand
left in the top of the hourglass.

We have to get back
before the sand runs out,

or the puzzle won't do its magic.

But we're so far away.

What do we do, Leo?

There's only one thing we can do.

We have to fly super-fast!

Will you help me
fly Rocket super-fast?

Great! Super-fast!

[all]
Super-fast!

To get to super-fast,
we have to start at adagio.

Pat the beat on your lap slowly.

Moderato!

Now pat the beat
on your tummy a little faster.

Allegro!

Now pat the beat
on your shoulders even faster!

Presto!

Now reach your arms to the sky
and shake your whole body!

We did it! We're flying super-fast!

-Hooray!
-All right!

-We made it to the Great Sphinx.
-[violin plays]

Hurry, Rocket. Time is almost up.

The sphinx needs you to put
the last puzzle piece in place.

Way to go, Rocket! You did it!

You finished the sphinx's
magic puzzle just in time.

[horns playing]

Now the Great Sphinx
can see the whole puzzle picture.

What picture
did the magic puzzle make?

A snowflake! Yes!

And look!
Something magical is happening!

I cannot believe it! It's snowing!

-Wow!
-Amazing!

The magic puzzle
made it snow in the desert.

[violin playing]

And look.
The Great Sphinx is so happy.

The desert is very hot,
but the magic puzzle made it snow.

So now the Great Sphinx
is nice and cool.

Ooh!
The Great Sphinx is thanking Rocket

for helping put together
his magic puzzle.
