01x09 - Skip Day/The Great Grinaldi

[bunniefuu]

- Coming up on Odd Squad... - Ms. Baker, I'm afraid you have

a case of the skips. - When you get the skips, you don't know you have the skips!

- And it's contagious. - Look at Olive...skipping!

That means... - (both): Olive has the skips!

- My name is Agent Olive.

This is my partner, Agent Otto.

This is my collection of rocks - but back to Otto and me.

We work for an organization run by kids

that investigates anything strange, weird,

and, especially, odd. Our job is to put things right again.

- Rrr! - Yeah!

- Who do we work for? We work for Odd Squad.

- Thanks for coming, Odd Squad.

I don't know what's wrong with my car, but every time I get into the back seat...

...this happens.

- (together): Whoa!

- Not to worry. Our car- fixinator should do the trick.

- WAIT! Let me get at this thing!

Amazing!

Wanna go for a bike ride? - Actually, I do.

- To be young again...

- What?

- Um... Let's go.

- Wait, what did you say?

- You wanted to see us, Ms. O? - Yes.

Something very odd has happened. You remember the town baker.

- Hi, guys. So, usually, my cakes are light and fluffy,

but lately...

- Ugh... - Ugh!

- I can't figure out what's going on!

- Hmm... I have a hunch.

Ms. Baker, can you walk us through what you do to bake a cake?

- No! But I can hand you this recipe card.

- Okay... So you did step one - mix ingredients--

- But you skipped step - bake cake.

- But there's frosting in there, so you did , put on frosting--

- But you skipped step - add birthday candles.

Ms. O, can you put these steps on a number line?

- What? You think I can whip up a number line just like that?

You're absolutely correct.

- (Olive): So, you did step - mix ingredients -

but you skipped step -- - (Otto): Bake cake.

- Then you did - put on frosting -

but skipped -- - Add birthday candles.

- You're skipping every other step.

- Oh, wow! I had no idea.

- Thank you, Ms. O.

Ms. Baker, would you walk across the room for me?

- My pleasure.

- (Otto): She didn't walk - she skipped!

- Exactly. Ms. Baker, I'm afraid you have a case

of the skips.

- Everyone, put on your masks!

(alarm blaring)

- What's going on? What are the skips?

- The skips is a condition that makes you skip steps

and also skip.

- (Ms. O): And it's contagious. Dr. O!

- Ma'am, you need to come with me.

- Uh... Uh...

- That was kind of fun.

Now get back to work!

- Yeah.

- I'm so glad that's over.

I have so much left on my to-do list today!

And I'm only on number : "Show Otto to-do list."

- How did you even...

- Here's a copy if you need to reach me.

- That Olive, pretends to be so serious, but look at her!

Skipping, not a care in the world...

- That means... -(both): ...Olive has the skips!

Olive, wait!

- (O'Reilly): Squishinating!

- Oh, no! - This is bad!

When you get the skips, you don't know you have the skips. You need to find

your partner, stat! - But I don't know where she is!

But I do...because I have this!

She just finished number , which means she's going to do number .

- But remember, she has the skips.

That means she's going to skip number .

- You're right, doctor. - Of course I'm right, I'm a doctor.

- If she's going to skip number ,

that means she's going to go from to : "Play tennis."

O'Reilly, send me to the tennis courts. - Preparing to squishinate...

Squishinating!

- How's that cough coming, O'Reilly?

(car horn honking) Oh, good, much better.

WHAT'S NEXT?

- I'm sorry, Otto. Olive never showed up for our game.

It's not much fun without her.

I win...again.

That doesn't make sense.

Olive should have skipped and gone to . That's here.

(cell phone ringing with theme song ring tune)

- O-T-T-O . - Otto, it's me, Dr. O.

I work with you at Odd Squad, I have a lab coat,

we were talking about Olive caught the skips?

- Yes, I remember. What's up? - Olive was just seen

at Polly Graph's Hot Chocolate Stand. - I'm on my way.

- Yep, you're fine.

(whirring)

- Whoa, Polly, what happened?

- Olive ruined my stand!

- What? Wha...wha...

- Yeah! She was acting so weird.

- Hey, Polly. Cup of hot chocolate, please.

- Sure. Serve yourself.

(humming)

- Have a good day.

- Mm, she skipped the step where she took the cup.

Olive has a case of the skips. - Ugh.

- This is how I feel about the skips.

- I know it's not a graph,

but it' s just how I feel.

- But "Get hot chocolate" is number .

Why did she skip all the way from to ?

(cell phone ringing again)

O-T-T-O. - Otto, it's me again, Dr. O.

We met at headquarters, and then I talked to you on the phone...

- Yes, I remember. What is it? - More Olive sightings.

I'm sending video right now. - But I have nothing

to watch it with... - Check the inside of your coat.

- Whoa!

- Mm, looks like she skipped the step

where she put on a bathing suit. - (Dr. O): Olive was also seen

at the basketball court. - Okay. Thanks, doctor.

- And thank you, doctor. - I'm not a doctor.

- I know, I was talking to myself.

Good luck my friend. ...That was also to me.

(sighing)

- But number is...

...swimming, and number is "sh**t hoops."

She's all over the list. I'll never find her.

- Think, Otto. What would Olive do?

- She would go to the Mathroom! Thanks.

(whirring)

- Greetings, Agent Otto. - Hi, Mathroom.

Okay, let's go over what I know so far.

Number was Olive showing me her list...

...then she skipped to , "Get hot chocolate."

Then she went to , "Go to swimming pool."

And then , basketball.

Mathroom, can you put these on a number line?

- Generating number line.

Okay. She started at , skipped , , went to ,

skipped , , went to ,

skipped , , went to .

, , , .

I see a pattern! Olive is skipping by threes!

Which means the next number she's going to do

is , ... !

"Go skydiving."

I know where to find her.

- Great job, Agent Otto.

- Yes! Mathroom, show me some love.

- Generating love.

(rock music playing)

- Wait!

(music stops)

When you skydive,

you jump out of a plane.

What if Olive skips the step

where she puts on a parachute?

(gasping)

(screaming)

- I'm coming, Olive!

- Uh... Otto! AHH!

AHH!

- Partner, let's go home.

Yeah!

- Whoa!

And you solved it all by yourself?

I'm impressed, Agent Otto! - Thanks!

I just wish there was an easier way to get rid of the skips.

- Let's get this over with.

- (Olive and baker): ♪ Skip, skip, skip to my Lou ♪

♪ Skip, skip, skip to my Lou ♪

- (baker): Uh, how long do we have to do this?

- (Olive): Uh, we should be out in a week.

- By the way, I'm Dr. O, I work here at Odd Squad...

- I know!

- WHAT'S NEXT?

- Greetings, Agents, I'm Oscar with today's Odd Report.

As you can see, we have bumper-to-bumper blobs on the East Bay Bridge.

Also, there's a giant crushing houses in town.

O'Connor, can you bring up the photo?

- Comin' at ya! - That's you, O'Connor.

- Yeah! - You again...

- Yeah... Yeah! - That's actually me and you.

- That was quite a fun day, there... But seriously, the one with the giant!

- You got it! - There's the big guy.

- On Monday, he crushed a house on th Street.

URGH, I'M SO ANGRY!

And on Tuesday, he crushed a house on th Street.

I THINK I MIGHT HAVE ANGER MANAGEMENT ISSUES!

And yesterday, he destroyed a house on th Street.

I HAVE NO RESPECT FOR PERSONAL PROPERTY!

Now, O' Connor thinks that this guy's all over the place,

but, I mean, O'Connor also thinks I can't speak dolphin.

(chirping) Understand what that meant, O'Connor? Yeah, exactly.

Anyways, if you put these streets on a number line,

you can really see that he's skipping by twos.

First he went to th Street,

then skipped , streets to th Street,

then skipped , more streets to th Street.

Now that we know his pattern, we can predict

that today he will crush a house on , ... th Street.

Which is where I live! Heh...

Oh, no... Dolphin brothers, unite!

(chirping) - (O'Connor): Yeah!

- Thanks for coming, Odd Squad.

- What seems to be the problem, sir?

- Well, I really want to go swimming,

but every time I try to go to the ocean, this happens...

(buzzing)

- See?

- A question: did you say anything bad about the ocean recently?

- Well, I... I might have said it was cold...

- You shouldn't have done that. - Really bad move.

- What? It is cold! - Don't say it again!

- The ocean is mad at you, and it's keeping you out.

- Well, what do I do? - (together): Apologize!

- (scoffing): To the ocean?

- I don't see a lake around here.

- Okay, ocean, I'm sorry you're so sensitive...

- Oh, come on. Do it for real, man!

- Okay. Ocean, I'm sorry I said those things about you.

- And... - And I really like how blue you are?

- And... - And wavy and wet and splashy.

- That should do it.

- It worked! Thanks, Odd Squad!

- Have a good day, sir. Let's get out of here.

This sand is hot... Oh!

That's my bad.

- For you, for you, these are for you,

I think this is for that...

- Wow, I've never seen you move so fast!

- If I finish all my work, I can leave early

to see the Great Rinaldi at the theatre.

- Wait, the what? - The theatre.

You know, where you go see shows?

- No, not that, Grinal...

- Grinaldi. The greatest magician

in the history of magic.

Here, let me show you.

- Prepare to be dazzled!

Stupefied! Thunderstruck!

Grinaldi's magic is so great,

it is everywhere. Come!

See my magic saw trick, where I cut through everything,

including myself!

Oh, yes, it's happening.

Oh, yes! (bell ringing)

- Grinaldi's the one that inspired me to become a magician one day.

- I thought you wanted to become an Olympic speed skater.

- That was on Monday. - What about tornado chaser?

- That was on Tuesday. Today's Wednesday. Wait...

Oh, no! The show's already started! I've gotta get

out of here before Ms. O finds something else for me to do.

- I have something for you to do.

- How'd you even get in there? - Because I'm everywhere!

Now, you two, go to the bakery! NOW!

- Ah! Thanks for coming, Odd Squad.

It's my cakes. They're ruined!

A wedding is supposed to bring people together,

not split them apart!

- But who would want to steal cakes?

- Hang on, partner. No cakes are missing.

The whole thing's still here, they're just cut into pieces.

Which means... they're split in half!

- But who would want to do something like this?

- (together): Circle Sue! - No, that doesn't sound right.

- Oh, yeah... - (together): Halvesie Harriet!

- Yes! Yeah, that sounds right.

- No, no, no, I didn't do this!

Yes, I like splitting things in half,

but I always steal one half and leave the other, see?

Ha ha ha!

Just did that. - (Olive): Wait...

So all these things are stolen?

- I think you're getting away from the point.

Would you like some lemonade?

- Um... - Oh, uh...

- We're good, we're good.

- Look, Harriet, can you please just confess

so we can close the case and I can go see the Great Grinaldi?

- But I'm innocent, I've been in my apartment all day,

knitting this half sweater!

- Hmm, not half bad. (cell phone ringing)

- Thank you. - Gopher Olive...

I see. Things are falling apart at the library, too.

- Ah-ha!

That proves that I didn't do it! I've been here with you two.

- You're right. We're sorry for bothering you.

- That's alright. Let me show you to the door.

- Bye! - See you soon.

- I'm just gonna lock up behind you.

- Let me guess, Mr. Fonts; the books are splitting in half?

- No! It's much worse than that - look!

- The books started off whole,

but now they're in equal pieces.

- So the books split into fourths...

I know who did this - Fourthsie Fouriet!

- No such person, but nice try. - (Mr. Fonts): Well, whoever's

doing it is making the books very difficult to read,

and poor Dustin is having a horrible time shelving, look!

- (voice breaking): I'm trying so hard!

(cell phone ringing)

- Gopher Olive. - How come they always call you?

- Agents, there's been another development.

I'm sending video.

- I don't see anything.

- It's in Otto's jacket.

- Oh, yeah!

, , , ,

, , ... . pieces?

- I need you to find out who is cutting

all these things into pieces.

STAT. As in, ASAP.

As in as soon as possible.

As in NOW!

- You know, I've got an idea. Let's take a break,

go see the Great Rinaldi and come back to the case with fresh eyes.

- Better idea. We're going to the Mathroom.

(whirring)

- Oh, this is just... I'm going to have my apple break!

(whimpering): Oh, no, the apple

is in fourths!

Oh, that's better actually.

- Greetings, agents. - Hi, Mathroom.

Okay, let's look over the evidence so far.

First, the cakes at the bakery split

into two equal pieces. Halves.

But then the books split into equal pieces. Fourths.

- And the bridge split into equal pieces. Eighths.

- (Olive): But why halves, then fourths,

then eighths? - The Great Grinaldi.

- Otto, can you forget about Grinaldi for a minute?

- No. Mathroom, bring up a picture

of Grenaldi in his magic box.

- Generating images. - Other magicians

saw themselves in half once, but Grenaldi wants to be better,

so he saws himself in half times.

And when you split something once,

you have , equal pieces. Halves.

- And if you split each of those equal halves in half, you have

, , , equal pieces.

Fourths. And splitting each of those equal pieces

in half again gives you

, , , ,

, , , equal pieces. Eighths!

- Mathroom, show us a map of the theatre

where Grinaldi was performing.

- Generating images.

- It's close to the bakery, the library and the bridge.

- Grinaldi did say his magic is so great, it's everywhere.

So it must have leaked outside of the theatre!

- We gotta get to Grinaldi's show.

- That's what I've been trying to say all day!

- And now, all eighths of the Great Grinaldi

shall disappear.

- (agents): ODD SQUAD! ODD SQUAD! Stop right there, Grinaldi.

- Oh... - (together): Hey, people.

- What? What's going on? What...

Actually, it'll be faster if I just read your minds.

- Oh, no, the cake... and the books...and the bridge!

I'm so sorry, I've caused so much trouble!

And... and yes, Otto, you can have my autograph.

- YES!

- (Olive): Mr. Grinaldi, can you fix it?

- Yes...but Grinaldi cannot reverse the spell

with his head alone. I will need an assistant!

- I'll do it! - Excellent!

- No! No way! No way am I going to let you do this.

...Looking like that.

(audience applauding)

- Go get 'em, partner. - Thanks, partner.

- (Grinaldi): Now, assistant, your first job

is to put the pieces of the Great Grinaldi back together.

♪♪

- Ta-da! (audience murmuring)

- (Grinaldi): Uh, not it. - Oh...

♪♪

- Ta-da! (audience murmuring)

- Still not it. - Are you sure? You look pretty good to me.

- Otto... - Okay.

♪♪

(hesitantly): Ta-da...

- "Ta-da" indeed! (audience applauding)

- And now, I shall make myself disappear!

- Wait! You need to fix the other stuff.

Ah... Heh, heh. Right.

Alakazam! Bing-bangarol!

Fractions come together, and make one whole!

(audience applauding)

- Well done, agents. Here's your new assignment.

- Never fear, the Amazing Otto is on the case!

(coughing)

- How long am I going to have to put up with this?

- Uh, he should be over it by...Friday.

What is the use in that?

- Welcome to the Breakroom.

My name is Oksana, and this is where agents come to enoy the food I make.

In case you were wondering, the actual kitchen

is floors down from here.

And there's no elevator, or stairs...

...but I have a climbing rope.

Odd Squad agents have quite the appetite,

so I make all sorts of food for them.

Like this ham and pudding sandwich,

this broccoli-pudding soup,

or this pizza -

it's actually made of pudding.

The other great thing about it;

if two agents are in the Breakroom who want

to share this pizza, it can be split in half.

, . Two equal parts.

Halves. But what if there are hungry agents in the Breakroom,

and I don't have another pizza ready? Not to worry.

The pizza can be divided into fourths.

, , , .

Fourths.

But let's say there are hungry agents in the Breakroom

and I don't have another pizza,

because I've fallen asleep on account of preparing

meals for breakfast.

Not to worry. Pizza can even be divided into eighths.

, , , ,

, , , . Eighths.

It's not the best job in the world, but at least

they let me play my own music. (loud electronic music playing)

- I'm Olive's partner, Agent Otto. I just joined the Squad.

Every day, there's something different.

(roaring)

- Can you spell that for me? - Rawr... Rawr... - Mm-hmm...

- , ... - Er, ... No, was that ?

- Oh, no! (clucking)

The hardest part of the job...

...is when I got chopped in half.

(screaming)

Today, I get to help a guy who turned invisible!

- Uh, can we get back to that, please? - That's Bob.

- Fun fact: the "O" in "Odd Squad" stands for "opportunity".

- No it doesn't! - It stands for "Odd".

- Ahh... What does the "S" stand for?

- (all): ...Soup.
