But I couldn't sleep,
so I popped on the tv,

And there it was --
this great old movie called

"It came
from the auto factory."

Ooh.
I like it already.

It's about a wacky scientist
who makes a creature

Out of parts he finds
in his garage.

But then, one night,
it escapes,

And the whole parking lot
is terrified.

Oh, no! What happens next?
What happens next?

Well, the creature
starts repairing

Everything it comes across,

And it becomes the best friend
the place has ever known.

Wow!

Imagine being
a wacky scientist.

[ Electricity crackles ]

[ Thunder crashes ]

[ All groaning ]

They're alive! Alive!

[ Thunder crashes ]

[ Laughing ]

Powerin' pickups!

I'm gonna make
my very own creature.

[ Horn honks ]

Don't worry, gunter.

I'll make sure
he keeps it on a leash.

Rowdy:
that sounds awesome,

But how do we build
a real live creature?

Well, we can't make
a real one, of course,

But maybe we could put it
together like a giant suit --

You know, with a place inside
where one of us can control it.

Magnã­fico!

That way, we get to stomp around

And pretend to be
the creature, too!

I don't know. That seems like
an awful lot of work.

But work is what we do,
boomer.

Over, around,
and through,

Trucks go, and see,
and do!

♪ The team is all ready ♪

♪ The plan is in place ♪

♪ Got the parts together ♪

♪ And some spares just in case ♪

♪ Link one to the other ♪

♪ Tab "a" to slot "b" ♪

♪ And before you know it ♪

♪ It's as strong as a tree ♪

aah!

♪ Build it strong,
build it fun ♪

Aah!

♪ Add some magic
and then mix in a cup ♪

♪ Make it work, make it run ♪

♪ Put it all together ♪

♪ From the ground up ♪

[ laughter ]

♪ The look is important ♪

♪ The style, no doubt ♪

♪ Arms, a brain, a motor,
no pieces left out ♪

[ sneezes ]

♪ Build it strong,
build it fun ♪

[ Beep ]

♪ Add some magic
and then mix in a cup ♪

♪ Make it work, make it run ♪

♪ Put it all together
from the ground up ♪

I'm gonna take it
for a spin.

Whoa, amigo,
it's not done yet.

Yeah, we haven't even made sure
everything works.

Um, we'll finish it
in the morning,

And then we can decide together
who goes first.

All right.
Great work so far, guys.

Bumpers up!

All:
friends for the long haul!

Wow. I can't wait.

Hmm.

What's the matter,
sport?
[ Sighs ]

I can't ride our totally
super-awesome mega-creature
creation until tomorrow.

Well, it is
pretty hard to wait

When a totally super-awesome
mega-creature creation

Is right there.

But sometimes waiting makes
things that much more fun.

Try not to think about it
until morning.

[ Sighs ]

Now it's all I can
think about.

[ Ball bouncing ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Clock ticking ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Sighs ]

Ohh.

[ Yawns ]

Longest...night...ever.

Ugh! And it's not even time
to meet up yet.

[ Gasps ] totally awesome
mega-creature creation!

If I just play a little before
everybody else gets there,

They'll never even know.

It's even better
than I remember.

Hmm. Now, where did
we leave off?

I think there was something
we still had to do.

Hmm.

Whatever. Why work when I can
just have fun right now?

It's alive!

It's -- okay, wait a minute.

Hmm. It's jammed.

[ Engine rumbles ]

Powerin' pickups!
We have contact!

Wahoo!

Boy, I couldn't
stop thinking

About getting back here
and finishing up.

Me neither.
I can't wait to see...

Whoa! It's alive!

Wow. We're better scientists
than we thought.

Chuck?
Chuck? Chuck?

Oh. It's not alive.
It's only chuck.

Hi, guys.

What are you doing?

We were supposed to decide
together who would go first.

Yeah, and what about
the final fixes,
the safety checks?

I'm sorry.
I couldn't help myself.

But I'll let someone else
get a chance really soon.

[ Roaring ]

Better run and hide,
little trucks!

The mega-creature
is on the loose!

[ Laughter ]

[ Gasps ]

I'm gonna get you!

Whew, that was close.

[ Laughter ]

Hey, chuck.
Can I try now?

Are you sure? You're doing so
well playing a little truck.

Sã­. Let rowdy go.
Then I want to go next.

And I'll go
after digger.

Okay.
I guess it's only fair.

[ Engine sputters ]

Uh...guys?
That's not supposed to happen.

[ Rumbling ]

Oh, come on, chuck!
Give someone else a turn!

I'm trying!

Aah!
Aah! Aah!

Chuck, what's going on?

I can't stop it!
The lever came off.

It was sticking earlier,

But I didn't think
it was a big deal.

You were in such a hurry
to play with our new toy

That you didn't take the time
to make sure it was ready.

I know.

Next time, I'll be
more patient, I'll promise...

If there is a next time.

Why don't you
just jump out?

[ Grunting ]

I'm stuck!

Don't worry, amigo.
We'll get you out of there.

Thanks, guys.
See if you can follow me.

I think I have an idea.

First we need to find something
to replace the broken lever.

I know I've got a wrench
in there.

I found it.

Here it comes.

Be very careful,
boomer.

We just want chuck to be able
to grab the wrench,

Not hit him with it.

Oh!

Oh, no.
[ Groans ]

Nobody panic.
I have another idea.

All we need is a rope.

Yeah.

We got him!

Whoa! Whoa!

Whoa!

[ Panting ]

Well, that didn't work,
either,

And now he's heading
right for the repair center!

[ Grunting ]

Rowdy: whoa, hang on!

We're working on plan "b."

Actually,
we're up to "c."

Maybe if we dig
a big ditch,

The creature would step
into it and get stuck.

[ Gasps ]

That sounds like trouble.

I hope it's enough.

Over here, chuck!

Whoa!

Ugh!

I bet you're wondering
why I have this on my head.

Porter: something tells me

Your creature creation
wasn't quite ready to go.

Guess if I had
a bit more patience,

We would have finished
our safety checks

And still have a creature.

Boomer: well, at least
everybody's okay.

Thanks to you guys.

I'm sorry.

I swear I'll take
as much time as we need

On our next adventure.

Yeah, like rebuilding
our creature.

That sounds awesome!

Oops.

I should probably wait

Until we're all ready
to do it together.

Yeah.

Going up.

Going higher up,
amigo.

Going highest up.

Chuck: wow!

From up there, we should be able
to see for miles around.

Sã­, I bet we'll be able to see
halfway around the world.

Abunai! Abunai!
Abunai!

Who are you?

Whoa,
cool pipe pyramid.

Soku-kun?

oh, sorry, guys.

This is my cousin kazuo
from japan.

He doesn't
speak english.

Nice to meet you,
kazuo.

Why is he bowing?

I don't really know.

It's just something
japanese trucks do.

Aren't you japanese, too,
soku?

Well, yes,
but I don't live there.

I'm japanese because
my grandparents came from japan,

And their parents
and grandparents
lived in japan, too,

So since my family is
originally from japan,

My mom and dad said
that's my heritage.

So, they must have taught you
a lot about being japanese.

Well, my parents want me
to learn about it.

They say it's important
to know the way

Japanese trucks live
and speak and do things,

But it's really hard
to pay attention.

I mean, I live here,
so I don't really understand

Why learning about there
is so important.

Abunai, soku-kun!

Kazuo,
I don't understand.

Sorry, guys.

My parents said
that with kazuo here,

I might learn something
about being japanese,

But, so far, having kazuo here
has been kind of hard.

Uh, â¿por quã©?
Why is it hard?

We speak different languages,
we don't know the same games,

And, for some reason,
he keeps calling me soku-kun.

Soku-kun!

See? Weird, huh?

I can't understand
anything he says.

It's like he's speaking
a secret code.

Secret code?

We can escape,
zoom zoomerton.

I found the password
to unlock the door,

But it's in a secret code.

Don't worry, zoom zoomerton
can crack any secret code.

Hmm.

Hurry! Baddity bumpers
will be back in six seconds.

Five...four...
Three...two...

Got it!

The password is...
Galoshes!

[ Ding! ]

Abunai! Abunai!

Sorry, guys.

Another reason it's hard
to have kazuo here

Is because he keeps stopping me
from playing on this pyramid.

Hmm. Abunai.

That's the same word he was
saying before you got here.

Maybe we can crack
the secret code

And figure out
what he wants to tell us.

Wait. I bet my dad
can help us talk to kazuo.

My dad knows everything.

Come on, guys.
Let's go find him.

Come on, guys.
My dad's inside.

[ Tires screech ]

Kazuo, stop!

You don't have
to do that here.

What is kazuo doing?

He was about to take off
his hubcaps for some reason.

He did the same thing
at my house.

[ Laughter ]

Hey, fellas.
Who's this?

Oh, dad, this is kazuo,
soku's cousin from japan.

Hey, there.
Pleased to meet you.

Huh?

In japan, bowing is one way
trucks greet one another.

At least, I think so.
Is that right, soku?

Um...
I'm not really sure.

What's he doing now?

It looks like he's giving you
a gift, dad.

It's a book about japan.
How nice.

Thank you, kazuo.

Hey, guys, how about
we go back to play on
that pipe pyramid now?

Ge-mu!

Hold on -- I think kazuo

Is trying to tell us
something again.

[ Sighs ] and we can't
understand him -- again.

Ge-mu.

He's acting it out.

I think that's...kick?
Looks like he's kicking a ball.

And, uh, dice?

So he's saying
"kick ball dice"?

Well, that doesn't
make sense.

[ Laughter ]

Ge-mu. Ge-mu.

Wait a second -- ge-mu.

It's right here in the book.
It means "game."

He wants to play a game.

Okay, kazuo,
let's play a game.

Have fun, guys.

We'll never get to play
on that pipe pyramid.

You're stopping us from playing
the things we want to play.

Maybe you should go home
and let us play.

Home, okay?

Soku-kun!

And stop calling me
soku-kun.

Hey, guys.
I finally got rid of kazuo.

I guess you thought he was
kind of weird, huh?

But now we can try out
that pipe pyramid.

Darumasan ga koronda.

[ Laughter ]

Kazuo,
you're interrupting us.

Ge-mu!
Darumasan ga koronda.

It's okay, soku.
Let's see what kazuo's game is.

Soku?
Where's your cousin?

[ Sighs ]

I kind of wish
he was back in japan.

Why do you say that?

Because when he's around,

Nobody can understand
what he's saying,

So we can't do the things
we want to do.

And besides that,
he's embarrassing me.

Embarrassing you?

Because he does
weird things,

Like bowing
instead of bumping bumpers,

And he gives gifts

And takes off his hubcaps
before he goes indoors.

Soku, do you know why kazuo
does all those things?

No, not really.

Sometimes when you know
why people do things,

They don't
seem weird anymore.

Maybe you and your friends
could find out.

I bet chuck and boomer
and digger

Would find it interesting.

And I have a feeling

You might find it
most interesting of all, soku.

Well, if nobody else
is gonna play on it,

I'm gonna try it out.

Chuck: ooh,
I think I get it.

It's sort of like
"red light, green light."

Iku.

Oh, so "iku"
means "go."

Tomeru.

Tomeru!
That must mean "stop."

Mawaru.

And "mawaru"
means "turn."

I think I get it.

While he's saying "darumasan
ga koronda," we all go.

Iku!

But when he finishes,
we all have to stop.

Tomeru!

And if he sees us moving,
we have to turn around.

Mawaru!

Darumasan ga koronda.

[ Gasps ] abunai!

Chuck: it looks like
that pipe pyramid could fall.

I think kazuo is
saying "danger."

Whoa!

Whoa! Whoa!

Let's go after him!

[ Gasps ]
tomeru! Tomeru!

You want us to stop?

Whoa!

Whoa!

Mawaru! Mawaru!

turn!

I think I see what kazuo
is trying to do now.

Iku!

Whoa, whoa!

Tomeru!

Ooh, you guys saved me.

Thank you, kazuo.

Soku-kun.

I guess I wasn't
very nice before.

I should have tried to learn
more about being japanese.

Chuck:
that's all right, soku.

We've learned a lot,
and we can teach you --

Like how bowing is a way
to greet people.

Sã­, and that taking off
your hubcaps

When you go indoors
is a custom

That shows cleanliness
and respect for your hosts.

So why does he call me
"soku-kun"?

Oh, that.

When you add the ending "kun"
to someone's name,

It just means that
you know them pretty well.

I guess he feels like
he knows you pretty well.

Soku-kun!

Hey, guys.
Let's rebuild the pipe pyramid.

Kazuo can help us.

[ Ting! ]

Wow!

Look at it.
Excelente.

Cool.

It's amazing
how well we worked with kazuo,

Even though we speak
different languages.

I really like
kazuo.

Sã­. Maybe someday we can
visit him in japan.

That would be great.

Learning from kazuo
makes me want to know

Even more
about being japanese.

I want to thank him.

Kazuo, I know we can't always
understand each other,

So I learned how to say
"thank you" in japanese.

Arigatou.

You...are...welcome...
