01x29 - Trials and Tubulations

[bunniefuu]

- Coming up next on Odd Squad. - This panel is totally busted!

- (Otto): What's that noise? - (Olive): I don't know!

- You're in Sector ! - Should we be worried?

- My name is Agent Olive.

This is my partner, Agent Otto.

This is a picture with five jackalopes in it.

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.

(theme music)

(unicorn whinnying)

- Ah! - Hi-yah!

- Come on, buddy! Come on! - Where are we going?!

Who do we work for?

We work for Odd Squad.

(orchestral music)

- Uh... can we talk while you're sketching us?

- Oh, yeah, sure. Fire away.

- You said this odd problem of yours started earlier today.

- Yeah. See,

here's a picture I drew yesterday of my friend,

the crossing guard.

- Wow! That's really good!

- Thank you.

But now I'm trying really, really hard

to draw you two and...

look what happened.

- Uh, that's-that's not really good.

- I know! You've got to help me!

- Not to worry, ma'am, our unstickman-inator should fix it.

- OK. ♪♪♪

- Try drawing us now. - OK.

(orchestral music)

(painter sighing in relief)

It worked!

(triumphant musical cue)

- No stick men for you anymore.

- (laughing): No. - (Otto): Have a good day.

- Ooh, can you draw me now?

Hi. Hi.

- Odd Squad!

(clicking like a dolphin)

(theme music)

- WOOHOO! - YAH!

- FASTER! (pinball machine bells)

- (Otto): WHOAAAAAA! (weird clanking noises)

What's that noise? - I don't know!

Oh! - Wah.

(electric sizzling)

What happened?

- I have no idea.

We followed all the tube's safety rules.

We put away electronic devices, we weren't eating--

- Wait! We're not supposed to eat?

- Seriously?!

- I thought it was one of those rules that didn't

actually matter, like running with scissors.

- That is a rule that matters!

- See? This is nice! We're actually learning stuff.

Obviously, I am.

- I'll call Ms. O. (a*t*matic dialing)

- Can you tell me where you are?

- Well, we're definitely in a forest.

- Hang tight, Olive. I'll go speak

with tube-lobby operator O'Donnell.

I'm sure she's got it under control.

- I DO NOT HAVE THIS UNDER CONTROL!

This panel is totally busted!

- What is this stuff?

- Oh, all the stuff that powers the tube system.

- That's ridiculous. - Of course,

it's ridiculous, this is Odd Squad!

- Fair enough. - All these things

have popped out and have to be put back

in the exact spot they came from for the tubes to work again.

Luckily, I have a diagram.

It's like a map that shows where everything's supposed to go.

Like thanks to the diagram,

I know the avocado should go below the toothbrush.

- You need help. I'm bringing in

tube operator O'Malley to help you.

- Wait, there's more than one tube operator?!

- I'm sure I've mentioned that before.

- I thought agents only whooshed between and on Tuesdays!

- I would say it's called "fall" because the leaves fall.

- But in winter, snowflakes also fall,

so why don't we call winter "fall"?

- Hmm. 'Cause it's cold?

- This is why we're great partners.

If I had to be lost with anybody, I'm sure glad it's with you.

(Odd Squad theme music ringtone)

Go for Olive.

- Olive, it's gonna take a little longer

than I thought to get these tubes up and running.

- Don't sweat it, Ms. O.

Otto and I are kind of having fun out here.

- Yeah, this forest is kind of awesome.

You should check out the sparkly rocks.

- Sparkly rocks?! You're in Sector !

- Should we be worried? - NOOO! Not at all!

Why would you worry? Ha! - Because you sound worried.

- Probably bad phone connection. (blowing air in her hand)

(Ms. O making static sounds)

I'm sending you a map. (Beep! Beep!)

You can use it to figure out where you are,

where the tube entrance is, and the best way to get there.

(Ding!)

- (Otto): It's a picture of a squirrel wearing a dress.

- Take your big tablet.

(Ding!) - Got it. Thanks, Ms. O.

- Yep, um, just don't take too long.

♪♪♪

- Alright.

Here's the tube entrance, but where are we?

- Let's look for a "landmork."

- A what? - It's something that's

really easy to see that will help us figure out where we are.

- You mean a landmark.

And good one, partner. Hmm...

How about this polka-dotted mailbox?

That's a great landmark, because there isn't

more than one of it, so it really stands out.

- Polka-dotted mailbox...

Found it!

♪♪♪

- Hmm... - Oh!

Close to it, there's a striped bench.

- Which is right there.

So that means we're here,

in-between the mailbox and bench.

So to get to the tubes,

we've got to walk towards the mailbox.

This way. Let's go!

- I seriously can't believe there's more than one of me!

- You mean, more than one of me! - Haha! I'm assuming

when you say "me," you mean "more than one of me,"

because I'm the real tube operator!

- GIVE ME AN UPDATE, PEOPLE!

- It's going well, Ms. O. We figured out where

the toothbrush, avocado, and juggling pin go.

- That's it?! I have agents trapped in Sector !

- (tube operators): Olive and Otto are in Sector ?!

- I KNOW!

I'm calling in O'Callaghan to help you.

- (both): Who's O'Callaghan?!

(bleating like a sheep)

- All I'm saying is, walking is a great form of exercise.

- Not as good as swimming though.

- Sounds like you need to step up your walking game.

You use walking sticks? - I never thought they were...

(Otto talking in slow-motion)

- Otto, stop goofing... (in slow-motion): ...around.

- (in slow-motion): What's happening?

- (in slow-motion): I don't know.

- Aaah!

(agents speaking normally again) - (both): Logan the ogre?

- Olive and Otto the humans?!

What were you guys doing on the slow-motion path?

- Oh! - That's what that thing was.

- Yeah. - The tube we were travelling

through broke, we're heading to another tube entrance up ahead.

- Well, I wouldn't go that way. It will take you years

just to get where you're going.

That guy started when he was .

You got a map? (Ding!)

- We're trying to go here.

- Well, right now,

you're here at the fork in the road. Go this way.

Take a right at the rock statue,

go across the bridge, and voilà!

- But that's the longer route. - True, but at least

there won't be any slow-motion or spider-cats.

- (both): Spider-cats?! - Big time!

This forest is super dangerous! - (Otto and Olive): What?!

- I feel like there's a communication problem here.

- No, no, it's not that. It's just...

Ms. O didn't mention any of this.

- Well, maybe she didn't want you to panic.

I mean, the minute you find out there's spider-cats,

fire toads, and motorcycle monkeys up in this place,

it can really freak you out.

Not to mention sundown, which is a real game-changer.

- Logan, we get it. - Oh.

- Wait. If the forest is so dangerous, why are you here?

- Oh, my skin is totally poisonous.

- (Otto and Olive): AH! - Yeah. Hey,

selfie? Haha!

Just don't touch, because of the poisonous part.

(dance music playing)

(camera click)

- According to this diagram, the ukulele goes

beside the rubber ducky.

(faint static)

- Beside? Which side?

- Beside means next to something.

The ukulele goes to the left of the rubber duck.

You three don't know your lefts from your rights,

do you? (overlapping chatter)

LISTEN UP! Here's something I call this the L trick.

Whichever hand makes the letter L

is your left hand, which makes the other hand your right.

- So, the ukulele would go on the...

left side of the rubber ducky, because...

it's this side. Yes?

- Nice work. - That's why I got

Tube Operator of the Year.

- You mean, you, Tube Operator of the Year?

She mean, me, Tube Operator of the Year.

- Um, guys, I'm pretty sure it was me.

- Uh, you're all wrong. It was me.

- (O'Donnell and O'Malley): Who are you?!

- O'Duffey. - Did you make us

all Tube Operator of the Year?

- Is that my phone ringing? (humming Odd Squad ringtone)

Yep, definitely my phone. Gotta go!

(tube operators sighing in frustration)

(honking like a car)

- Man! When Logan the ogre said

this was gonna be a longer route, he wasn't kidding.

- No kidding. - I just said that.

- I meant, no kidding that he was kidding.

- Are you kidding me right now?

(Odd Squad theme music ringtone)

O-t-t-o!

- How are my two favorite agents

enjoying the peaceful forest

where nothing dangerous ever happens?

- Ms. O, we know the deal about the forest.

(beeping) And you're on speakerphone.

(sigh) - I wanted to tell you.

- But you didn't want us to panic.

- No. Then, I just got really busy.

How close are you guys to the tube entrance?

- Well, we had to change routes,

but it's OK. Bonus:

we found some beautiful yellow flowers.

- Yellow flowers?!

You need to get out of there! NOW!

- Why? (clucking)

(Olive gasps.) - Laser chicken!

- To be continued.

♪♪♪

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

And as you can see, we're doing this in the lab

because O'Connor's cleaning that other room.

He's still got a lot of work to do.

Now, where was I? Uh...

Oh yes, Odd Report. Of course. Uh...

Here's a map to town. As you can see,

there are streets that go up and down, or across,

except for this windy one here.

Now, as you can see, traffic's backed up for Miles.

Miles is this giant lizard that escaped from the lab.

Your job is to capture Miles and bring him back.

Now, the tubes will spit you out here

by this fountain. Now, if you're here,

and you're trying to get here,

let's figure out the best route you can take.

Now obviously, you could go up First Street,

but that would take a while. So I would suggest

that you take st Street and turn here.

Now, how do you know when to turn right? Well, luckily,

there's a statue of a giant sandwich there.

Now, we call that a landmark. A landmark is something

that's easy to see and will help you tell you where you're going.

Oh, what are you waiting for? Go get that sandwich!

I mean, uh, lizard.

I mean, while you're out and you want to get me a sandwich too,

that'd be cool.

Turkey on wheat bread. Hold the mustard!

And don't forget the lizard. Or the pickles!

- And now the rest of the story.

- Laser chicken! (chicken clucking)

(Olive and Otto screaming)

- We'll never make it to the tubes now!

- I have an idea! - Great! What is it?

Actually, I was kind of hoping it would

magically come out of my mouth when I started talking.

- [Agents,]

listen to me very closely!

[Laser chickens have terrible eyesight,]

[cover yourselves in mud.] - Really? Like a pig?

I'm so into that!

- There! - Whoa!

(chicken clucking)

(sporadic laser sh**ting)

- Ah!

(chicken clucking)

It's working.

- I know. And we're covered in mud: a win-win.

- Let's go! (chickens clucking)

Yes!

- Anyone know where this lightbulb goes?

- Oh, like, you can wait. There. - Oh no, no--

- How many tube operators does it take

to screw in a lightbulb? - Well--

- Don't answer that! Let me see this.

This diagram tells you exactly

where the pieces need to go.

That means, no one has to guess anything.

Also, I've called in more reinforcements

to help.

These are agents O'Hannigan, O'Brady, and O'Conor.

- Ms. O, exactly how many other tube operators are there?

- You're it... (Ms. O mumbling)

- Did you just mumble under your breath,

"except for the others, but they're all on vacation"?

- Wow! You have really good hearing.

Look, I know I haven't been totally straight with you guys,

but this isn't about me, or you.

This is about two agents trapped in the most dangerous place on Earth,

and they can't get home unless you fix those tubes.

Now, what do you say? Can you do it?

- (tube operators): Yeah!

- I can't hear you. - (tube operators): YEAH!

- I heard everybody that time, except for O'Malley. O'Malley?

- YAAAAAAH! - YAH!

Now, get in there and save the day!

(Ding!) - Let's see where we are.

The yellow flowers are behind us, so that means

that to get to the tube entrance, we've got to go in this direction.

- That means we should be coming up to the next landmark:

the rock statue.

- Oh! There it is.

(impressive rock guitar playing)

- Impressive. - Logan the ogre told us

to take a right here.

- I got this. The L trick.

Whichever hand makes a proper L is my left hand.

That means the other hand is my right hand.

So that means we go this way.

- Hey, won't you help a rock statue out?

- Oh! Right. So sorry. - My bad.

- Alright.

(rock guitar playing) - Tube entrance, here we come.

Hang on, partner. Let's check the map.

According to this, the next landmark

should be a bridge.

Oh! There it is.

Hmm... There's also a little picture of a desk.

I wonder what that is.

(trumpeting like an elephant)

- I think it's probably that.

- Excuse us, sir. - Ah, pa-pa-pa.

You'll have to answer a question if you want to pass.

- Actually, sir, we're kind of in a rush,

so if you don't mind... - Actually, I do mind.

♪♪♪

Boom.

- We-We'll answer your questions gladly, sir.

- OK, now. Let me find a good one.

Ah!

What dance am I thinking of?

- I don't know. Uh, square dancing?

- Shim sham shimmy? - Uh, the...

- Let me stop you right there. You need to guess

what dance I am thinking of by actually

showing me the dance. - Seriously?

- Oh yeah. - Let's try tango first.

(Ding!) I'll lead.

(tango music)

- No. (retro rock music)

No! (electronic dance music)

Incorrect!

(Macarena dance music)

Yeah, no, no.

(electronic music)

Negatory.

(traditional Russian music)

No! (Olive and Otto sighing)

- We've done every single dance!

- Nope, you missed one.

I'll give you a clue: it rhymes with

the chicken dance. - Is it the chicken dance?

- Ah, I always do that wrong!

(chicken dance music)

Nah, forget it, you already got it right.

(phone ringing)

Ugh! That's my boss.

I had one job and I messed it up!

- Hey, it wasn't your fault; it was just a lucky guess.

- Really? I thought you got it,

because I said "the chicken dance."

- Wait, you said the chicken dance? - Don't know. I don't think so.

- Hey, thanks, guys! Well, go on ahead!

(phone ringing) - Yes!

- Oh, hi, Mom. Yeah, work's going great. I think I'm ready for the big bridge.

(mooing) ♪♪♪

- (both): There it is!

- There!

Oh!

(grunting with effort)

- I don't know whether I should stand on them

or kiss them! - I hear you, partner.

I'm gonna stand on them.

- Yeah, me too. - Yah.

- (both): Preparing to squishinate!

Squishinating!

- Odd. - Let's try again.

- (both): Preparing to squishinate!

Squishinating!

- They must still be fixing them.

- Ah, it's OK. At least, we can see the sunset.

- Wait. Didn't Logan the ogre say something dangerous

happened at sundown?

- Olive...

- The forest is coming to life!

Crumpets!

- (both shouting): Ms. O! Ms. O! Hurry up!

- Keep it moving, people!

- Pinwheel goes below the golf ball.

- (O'Callaghan): Tiny drum goes to the right of the eggbeater.

- (O'Donnell): Teddy bear goes in-between the ostrich egg and the megaphone.

- All we need now is a banana.

- Tell me I did not just eat the thing that makes

that thing go. - You did not just eat that thing that makes that thing go.

- But I did, didn't I? - (tube operators): Yeah.

- Wait! There's a banana room!

(bleating like a sheep)

- Ugh!

- We've got to hold

these vines off till the tubes start working.

- Pruning shears? - Pruning shears.

(Ding!) Wait, we're not supposed to run with scissors.

- I've got a better idea. - Ugh!

Better. (Olive and Otto yelling)

(grunting with effort)

(groaning in frustration)

It's locked. I'll never get in.

Wait, what am I doing?

♪♪♪

- Ms. O, I'm open!

- O'Callaghan, pass!

(Otto grunting with effort)

(Olive gasping)

(suspenseful music)

- O'Donnell!

- Partner...

whatever happens today, I want you to know I wouldn't trade

one day for...

ANYTHING! (theme music)

YAH!

(tube operators cheering)

- (Olive and Otto): O'Donnell,

O'Malley, O'Connell, O'Callaghan,

O'Mooney, O'Connor, O'Duffey,

O'Hannigan, O'Brady... - Thanks for your help.

(O'Donnell laughing) (tube operators cheering)

- Welcome back, Olive and Otto. And job well done,

tube operators. - Hey, do you want to go get

something to eat? - Always.

- Let's go.

- See what happens when you all work together?

- We agree. In fact, we've agreed

on a lot of things, like wanting a more comfortable chair.

- (O'Malley): And new snacks.

- A new keyboard. - Some better lights!

- It's all on this list of demands we put together.

- This is why I never got you in the same room together.

(tube operators laughing)

- But seriously, those are our demands.

(operators laughing)

(operators laughing)

(operators laughing)

(operators laughing)

- My name is O'Malley. I run the tube system

here at Odd Squad, which is pretty much

the best job in the world. Why, you ask?

I get to touch all these awesome buttons.

Like this one. And that one.

(alarm ringing) OK, maybe not that one.

(The alarm stops.)

What I love most about my job?

I never have the same day twice, like this one time

when Olive and Otto went through tubes and ...

...and they arrived in tubes and .

Then, there was this other time when I thought

Olive and Otto were gonna go through tubes and ,

but at the last minute, I was, like, no way,

they're totally going through tubes and .

But guess what?

They ended up leaving through tubes and .

- Hold on, I'm not ready yet!

(mimicking an expl*si*n)

Best day of my life!

(chainsaw running)
