01x19 - One Thousand and One Tails

[bunniefuu]

What's the story, Wishbone?What's

this you're dreaming of?Such a

big imagination on

such a little pup?

What's the story, Wishbone?Do you

think it's worth a look?It

kind of seems familiar, like a

story from a book.

Shake a leg now, Wishbone. Let's

wag another tail

Sniffing on adventure With

Wishbone on the trail Come on,

Wishbone

What's the story, Wishbone?

What's the story, Wishbone?

What's the story, Wishbone?

Watch the story in Wishbone.

Oh, I have always wanted to get my paws

on one of these. Hey, David, what do you

want me to do with this?Uh, just head

over there. Man, I wish I could get a new

system.

Upgrading. Tough luck, pal. Years of

faithful service and suddenly you're

dumped. Are you all plugged in?

Not yet. As soon as my dad gets here. I

hear you can play incredible games on the

Internet. Yeah, I know. Once I get my

modem hooked up, we can go online and

surf the net all day. All right. Hey,

Dad. Hey. Here we

go. Now, David, your mother and I are

giving you the system to learn, not just

play, all right?I know. Okay.

Make sure the monitor is working. Good.

I'll be out front working on the car if

you need it. See you guys later. Okay,

okayBye.

Let's get the games.

I'll go to that one. That one?Okay. And

then next go to this one.

I'll go to that one. That one?Which one?

Go to that one. Wait, let's see this one

first. Okay. Oh, man. That's

so cool. Hello. Bad.

What do you guys see in that thing?Look

at you. You're totally absorbed. Myself,

I prefer to be captivated by a good

story. And the best storyteller of all,

in my opinion, was Scheherazade

in The 1001 Arabian Nights, a

collection of tales from India, Persia

and Arabia. In the tales,

Scheherazade is the wife of a brutal

Persian king. She and her sister knew the

Kingdom was in trouble. The king was

having people k*lled. He had lost his

mind and sentenced Scheherazade to die in

the morning.

How dare you feed me this slop! Guards!

Take him away. He shall die tomorrow

along with the queen.

You are restless, your majesty. Of

course I am. I am restless

as well, your majesty.

My dear sister, I wonder if you can

tell one of those wonderful stories you

knowStories?

I love stories. Would your majesty allow

Scheherazade to tell a story?Since I am

to die in the morning, I would love to

fill our last hours together.

Stop mattering like the goats you are.

Begin!

I have heard, oh auspicious king, the

story of Ali Baba and the



Ali Baba was a poor merchant.

He made a very meager living gathering

wood to sell.

One day, Ali Baba was lost

in the desert. Okay, I think I've

passed by this rock before. Of course,

being poor and lost is a pretty bad

combination, but what can happen?

Ooh, travelers to help me?

No. Bandits to hurt me! Okay,

come on, team, we are leaving!

That's fine. Great!

My donkeys are gone. Bandits all around,

but I'm not a quitter. I'm

not a quitter, but I am leaving. I'm

leaving right now. I am so gone!

You guys play your games. I'm back on the

block. This is where the real action is.

Better patrol the area. Uh,

disturbance on the 700 block. Proceed

with caution. I'm gonna be late.

Whenever you're in a hurry, that's when

things go wrong.

What's the trouble, ma'am?sh**t. Oh, hey,

just trying to help.

Wanda. Hello. I think you forgot

something. Sit. What's human for

purse?Hmm

Didn't work. Guess that communication

thing still isn't there. I really thought

I'd lost my accent. Wanda.

Wanda.

I'm sure that's not where that pursegoes.

Once more into the street. Look both ways

and wishbone to the rescue.

Whoops. OK, sweetheart, hand over the

purse. Finders keepers. Of all the

streets in Oakdale, she had to walk into

mine. Hey, human speed

bumper. David, you want to step outside

with me for a minute?Guys, wake up. Look

at this. It's

different kinds of chat groups. Oh, let's

go see this one.

Looks like somebody sat on the keyboard.

It must be discussion all in code or

something. I'm gonna see if I can get in.

Well, at least they're talking to

someone. Wait, you're just gonna jump

right in the middle of someone's

conversation?Why not?Oh,

man, I need to figure out the password.

Well, they obviously don't want you to

join in. Well, they can't stop me. I'm

going to figure it out. You've got to be

careful which passwords you learn. That's

what Alibaba found out.

Look at all that loot. These

guys are pros. What am I

afraid of?I'm sure they're reasonable

people. I'll just explain that I'm lost.

On second

thought, I'll wait. I've got nothing but

time.

Okay, give me the password.

The The password?I told you to remember

the password! I

don't remember you telling me that. Who

knows the password?

You're all good for nothing!I should gut

you like fish. I should let

none of you in. Let's

see, uh.. What's the

password?Oh, the

password?You should have told me!

Open sesame.

Wow. Did I just see that?

The password is open sesame.

What are you waiting for?

Stay here. There's another thief and keep

guard. Okay. Then don't

steal anything, huhGet

on in there. Come on.

Let's go, let's go. We have no

time. You

follow me.

Did he say lunch?

Starving.

your hands

off that!

That's

what I'm saying.

I have to tell you something. I saw a big

ferocious lying out there. He was trying

to k*ll us, and we had us strut these

swords, and he was coming on us right,

and he was going...

close. close, Sesame.

So, uh, anybody have anything else to eat?

Excuse me, Mr. Thieves.

I wonder if this password will work for

anyone. Open

sesame.

Wow. Well, since it's

open, I'll just take a quick peek.

Hello. Any nasty thieves at home?

Yes, Halam. Look at all this

treasure.

Well, I did lose my doggies.

I'm sure they wouldn't mind. Just incase.

And Ali Baba left the cave,

taking one small bag of

golden coins. Sister,

it is Dawn.

Why have you stopped?

What happens in the rest of the story?You

will never know. What?

Never mind about that!

I shall postpone your execution for one

more day so that you can finish the story

tonight. May I spend the day with my

sister?Yes. Just be

back to finish. As you wish, Your

Majesty.

These guys are still talking. Well, I

couldn't figure out the password, so I'm

going to have to crack the code.

They need a bank account number. They're

talking about stolen money. Stolen money?

It's a joke. They're playing a joke.

Yeah, but why would they put it in code?

Because they know someone like David is

going to figure it out and think it's

real. Well, I do think it's real. Why

would they make it up?Well, call me

if you figure out anything. I'm going to

go sh**t some hopes. Yeah, I think I'll

go with you. I was supposed to be home an

hour ago. Oh,

and David, if they really are

talking about stealing, be careful.

And Speaking of stolen money.

David, would you take me to the candy

store?I'm kind of busy right now, Emily.

I want to go now. You've got to stop her.

She's gone money mad. That's not

nice, Emily. I'll give you $20.

You take me. Whoa, where'd you get that

money?It's mine. I found it.

That's not your money, Emily. It's two.

Call the reinforcements! She's more than

we can handle!

Okay, David, I've got the evidence. You

get the suspect!

Emily!

Get her, David! Get her! Sorry, excuse

me. Pardon me. Looks like David needs

some help.

Stop! In the name of the dog!

I know I had it in my hand.

Hey, Joe. Joe, can you come in the house

for a second?I just wrote part of a new

story, and I really want to see what you

think. Sure. Thanks. Oh, Ellen, have

you seen my little clutch purse?No,

Wanda, I'm sorry. I haven't. Well, I was

in such a hurry this morning, and I I

can't remember what I did with it. Joe,

have you seen it?No. Sorry, Miss Gilmore,

but I'll look, though. OK. Thanks. Thank

you both. I I guess I'll just keep.

Retracing my steps. Good idea. Come

on. Emily! What?Emily, come

back here!

Nathan Barnes?Yes.

Agent Bates, FBI. Are

they after Emily?Go easy. She's just a

kid. So, uh, what can I do for you?Well,

if you wouldn't mind, we'd like you to

verify the balance of your account at

Oakdale National. I don't understand.

Please.

What's your account?Your checking

account. Please enter your checking

account number and press #.

We appreciate your cooperation. It's an

urgent matter. Is there anything to help?

Your checking account

balance is $3,692.42. Does it

seem high to you, Mr. Barnes?

Unless I got a big raise. Yeah, it does

seem high. What's going on here?

You have stolen money in your checking

account, Mr. Barnes. This

story gets better and better.

Not now.

I must hear what happens to Ali Baba.

I have heard, oh auspicious king,

that Ali Baba took his gold. To

the home of his greedy brother.

Alibaba, what has happened?

You pretend to be miserably poor, and yet

you have so much gold you don't count it,

you weigh it. Well, it's quite a

little scandal. Can you keep a secret?

Of course. Well, I was riding

through the desert and I lost my donkeys

and there were these bandits.

They have a special magic cave and this

password, Open Sesame. You wouldn't

believe all the gold and jewels.

But these thieves looked pretty mean.

We have to be careful. Of

course, brother. I

say we bury this gold for a while to see

if the bandits come after us. Yes, but

why didn't you take more?Let us go

back. We only take what is already

stolen. Now see, you're already being

greedy. Here, go to that. Stay here and

don't tell anyone.

Of course, brother.

At last.

I'll see if you lied to me,

Alibaba.

Open, sesame!

Baba, you are a fool!

We can take as much as we want.

They'll never miss it.

I

paid some of this and and some of

this. Don't have one of

these. I should have brought more donkeys

to carry it all. Yes.

What?Not to worry, I can

remember the simple password.

Let's see. Open

barley.

That wasn't it. Oh, I know.

Open wheat.

I know it was some kind of grain.

Open oaks.

ohh

Help me! Help me! Let me out of here!

I promise. I'll give you some gold. I

have some gold. I'll give you some.

Mom?Mommy?Where's my mommy?Help me.

Let me out, David. Let me out.

Let me out, David. Let me out. Okay, I'll

let you out. As long as you promise not

to run away. I promise.

OK, I'm opening the door.

That's not fair. Well, I'm sorry, but

you're going to have to give back the

money and the purse. Do you understand?

But I found it. You have got to admire

her. She doesn't back down. Well, if you

found it, that means somebody lost it,

and we have to find out who. Will I be in

trouble?

I'm your big brother. Would I let you be

in trouble?Okay. Come on, let's go. Hmm

Alibaba was a good brother, too.

If I know Kazim, he's gotten giddy for

gold. Ooh, thought I smelled something.

Daffy for diamonds. Jolly for jewelry.

Great. He forgot the password.

Oh, no. They're heading back. Okay, I'm

pretty sure I remember how this works.

Open sesame!

Oh, Mercy, Mercy. Let me

leave. I only. Oh,

it's only you, Alibaba. What took you so

long?Help me carry out some of these

riches. Listen, your greed is going to

get us ground up. Take a look over there,

buddy. Got a

clue?It's like this, bro. We got to go.

Follow me.

you, them! Get them! Where

did they go?Perfect!

We will be watching for you!

Many years later, after the 40

thieves had died,Ali Baba

returned to the rock cave with his son.

Using their fortune in moderation,

Ali Baba and his family lived

in honor. By the way,

tell the royal cook that today's Curry

was excellent.

What?Have you finished?

Yes, Your Majesty. Unhappily.

It is time for my sister's execution.

Otherwise she could begin another tale.

Oh, yes, there are so many. I could

tell you the story of Aladdin and his

magical lamp. Within the lamp

lived a powerful genie.

Too bad there is no time, my king.

Well, how many nights will this Aladdin

story take?We could reschedule

your execution. How's

the 15th?Sister, what about the

story of the enchanted horse?Oh, yes,

Orf Brave Sinbad in his seven

voyages. I I just don't

see how we're going to fit this execution

in.

Let's just cancel it.

Start talking. Scheherazade

entertained the king and changed his

heart with her Storis. He regained his

right mind and together. He and

Scheherazade ruled the kingdom with

wisdom and mercy.

Now let me do all the talking, okay?

You'll be just fine.

Excuse me, Dad?Can I talk to you?I'm

very busy right now, David. These folks

are with the FBI. What's wrong, Dad?

It seems like someone has made a wire

transfer into my checking account at

Oakdale National, a huge amount of

stolen money. Uh oh, Emily, you're

busted. Follow me. I'll hide you. Stolen

money?That's what the guys on the

internet were talking about in code. I

knew it was real. What do you mean, son?

Well, Joe and Sam and I were following a

code of conversation on my computer. This

Joe and Sam, friends of yours?Yes, sir.

Where do they live?Well, Joe lives right

next door. Check them out. Do

you have information for us?Um, maybe.

You want to come see?Yes. Okay.

We've been after the thieves for months.

We found a way to withdraw money from

other people's accounts and transfer it

into their accounts with their modems. We

noticed it transferred to your father's

account right away. How'd you break the

code?Ohh Well, I found the letter that

they used the most, and I made that

letter E. And then I figured out the

others by process of elimination. I still

can't figure out how the money got into

my account.

Oops. That's not the sound I want to

hear, David. I think I know

what happened.

Yeah, I was chasing Emily around, and I

accidentally engaged your banking

program. David, isn't this

cool?It's the real FBI. I wonder

if you could investigate a lost purse.

Oh, Miss Gilmore, about that purse.

They're talking again. Look.

It says... They're headed for the

airport. Good work, son. We got to hurry.

We got to clear up this computer. I can't

have you driving down the information

highway without a license. Have no fear.

The stolen goods has been recovered.

There's my purse.

Naughty, naughty dog. Oops.

Bad, bad dog. Bad, bad.

But she. But I but you. Emily, you've

done it to me again. Great. Excuse me.

Gotta go.
