04x01 - Odd Ones In

[bunniefuu]

[Captain O] My name is Captain O,

and this is my head-of-help, Ozzie.

I'm in charge of an organization made up of kids like these,

but not these.

We investigate anything strange, weird,

and especially, odd.

Our job is to put things right again.

[dramatic music]

[bubbles popping]

[soft tinkling]

[child exclaiming]

News time!

[dramatic music continues]

[soft tinkling]

[animal roaring]

[kids cheering]

[Captain O] We are "Odd Squad."

"Odd Ones In."

[paper rustling]

[electronic buzzing]

Incoming!

[funky tones]

Good morning, Agent Onit.

Have a great day, Ozzie.

-You know I will. -[upbeat music]

Good morning! Good morning!

Good morning, scientists.

[Scientists] Good morning, Ozzie!

[cheerleaders] ♪ One, two, four, eight

♪ Now it's time to celebrate

♪ Two, four, eight, sixteen

♪ We're the Odd Squad cheering team ♪

Thanks for the help, Ozzie.

Thanks for the help, Ozzie.

I work in the Department of Help.

It's my job.

[cheerleaders cheering]

Ah, I love my job helping people.

[Captain O] Ozzie, where are my juice boxes?

On my way, Captain O!

[magical music]

Our town is experiencing more oddness than ever.

We're in a bit of a jam, especially Agent Orwell.

I put too much jam on my toast,

so technically this isn't oddness.

[Captain O] This is.

[computer beeping]

[Ozzie] Whoa!

[Captain O] Oddness is breaking out all over the place.

[animals squeaking]

Why is this happening?

Great question.

Luckily, Onom has been doing some research

and was just about to tell us why.

I'll be brief.

I have no idea why all this is happening.

[Scientists] What? We thought you had a good plan.

I know I'm not an agent,

but as the only member of the Department of Help,

I suggest... asking for help.

[Captain O] Great idea, Ozzie.

Anyone in mind?

Yes!

Her name is Agent Orly.

She's the best agent in the world.

-[water rushing] -[suspenseful music]

Agent Orli!

What's up, Mr. O?

You're going to the United Kingdom.

They said you're needed right away,

but with a very fancy accent.

This is incredible!

But I can't leave; you'll be the only Odd Squad agent

here at Niagara Falls.

I'll be fine.

The only odd thing that ever happens around here

is the falls stop falling every once in a while.

I'm signing your transfer papers.

You know what? I'll sign 'em later.

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

Attention, everyone!

Orli, the best agent in the world, is on her way.

[Everyone] Yay!

Side note, what kind of welcome basket should I get her?

Traditional? Non-traditional?

One with cheese in it?

[Captain O groans]

Know what? I'll figure it out.

[air whooshes]

Incoming!

[magical zapping]

Agent Orli, welcome to precinct .

My name is Ozzie.

Nice to meet you, partner.

Oh, I'm not your partner.

I work in the Department of Help.

Hmm.

I got you this welcome basket.

Welcome!

I went back and forth on what to put in it,

but then time ran out.

I love it.

This will look great on my new desk.

Is that through here or--

We need you outside right away.

Here's a list of odd cases that Captain O

wants you to solve.

Wait, I've never even been to this town.

I could use some help being shown around.

[Orli gasps]

And since you're from the Department of Help,

you have to help me, right?

I mean technically, but--

Yes.

This will be great, partner.

Again, we are not partners.

[curious music]

Squishinating.

[dramatic music]

[Orli cheers] This is incredible!

[Ozzie] I was going to say terrifying.

[dramatic music continues]

When all the extra oddness started, I had to put a bunch

of odd things into this secure unit,

but now it's completely full and this large egg won't fit.

And that's a problem because?

This egg has a creature inside it,

and if it hatches, the creature will get out,

and if the creature gets out it would be very bad.

And how do we stop this from happening?

It's a very odd egg.

If it gets cold, it'll hatch,

but if we keep it warm, it won't hatch.

I have an idea.

Osgood, I've heard that you are always very good at sitting.

I mean, I've entered competitions,

but I usually come in third or fourth place.

-Although there was this-- -Good enough.

Osgood, please sit on this.

[light music]

[Captain O] Good. Carry on.

What is this thing anyway?

-[dramatic music] -[air whooshing]

[Orli] Woohoo, looking for oddness.

What have we got here?

Boom, I already found some.

The cars are driving on the wrong side of the road.

No, that's not odd.

It's British.

What about that bus that's been doubled?

That's a double decker bus,

also a totally normal British thing.

[Orli groans]

Is that over there also a normal British thing?

-[thunder cracking] -[electricity zapping]

No, that's definitely odd.

Let's do this.

Osgood, they need you outside.

Why me?

The town pond has turned into custard.

Or maybe it was mustard.

Either way, it has something to do with food,

and that's your department.

Love to help, Orwell,

but Captain O told me to sit here, so...

I will commandeer your spot.

I dunno.

Have you ever been in a sitting contest?

Of course I have.

Look, first place.

-[light music] -[Osgood sighs]

Enjoy.

[light dramatic music]

Will I ever wear a hat again?

Absolutely.

Agent Orly is the best agent in the world.

Wow.

You're all so polite here.

[Ozzie] Show him what you can do, Orly.

You got it.

-Stand back. -[light dramatic music]

[bell chimes]

[electricity zapping]

[Ozzie]Whoa.

Wow.

That's a towel.

Why are you zapping a towel?

The Towelinator's my only gadget.

Seriously?

I will never wear a hat again.

[Orli] Of course you will.

Ozzie, listen to me.

Every gadget has a number,

and if we don't have the gadget we need,

we can combine gadgets to get to the right number.

So the Unlightninginator is gadget number ten.

The Towelinator is gadget number six.

What have you got?

[bell chimes]

Staplerinator, gadget number four.

So if we combine the Towelinator, gadget number six,

with the Staplerinator, gadget number four...

Ten. It equals ten.

-The Unlightninginator! -The Unlightninginator!

Gadget number ten!

-[thunder cracking] -Stand still.

[gadgets zapping]

Thank you, Odd Squad.

If you'll excuse me, I'm going to buy a hat.

Orwell, they need you in the Security Department.

Sorry, Opie, but I was giving clear instructions

to sit in this room.

What if we take your place?

Well, there's two of you,

so that's like bonus sitting.

Deal.

We're doing really great.

Odd Squad! Odd Squad!

You know that saying, I scream, you scream,

we all scream for ice cream?

-Sure. -Sure.

[screaming]

I think I said it too much.

Can you fix it?

Absolutely.

My partner and I--

Technically, we are not partners.

Me and this person I know can combine gadgets.

The Unscreaminator is gadget number nine,

and my Towelinator is gadget number six,

so we need a number three gadget to add up to nine.

I don't have a number three gadget.

That's okay.

We can add up to nine with more than two numbers.

My Towelinator is gadget number six.

What have you got?

A Holepunchinator.

Gadget number two.

[Orli] So that's seven, eight.

What else do you have?

A Toothbrushinator, gadget number one.

Eight plus one equals nine.

Combining gadgets.

[magical whooshing]

[Orli] The Unscreaminator!

Stand back.

[gadget zapping]

Try it now please, ma'am.

[suspenseful music]

No screaming.

To say thanks, I'd like to give you some free ice cream.

Thank you, but Orly is a world-famous agent

who once fought in the Great Ice Cream Battle,

and now she refuses to eat ice cream.

I think she's over it.

What are you doing?

Orli, you promised to never eat ice cream again

after fighting in the Great Ice Cream Battle.

[Orli laughs]

Me?

In the Great Ice Cream Battle?

It's right here in the Odd Squad history book.

[book dings]

Oh, that's Orly with a Y from Texas.

I'm Orli with an I from Niagara Falls.

[light dramatic music]

Is this why you keep calling me the best agent in the world?

Yes.

I've made a terrible mistake.

I have to get back to HQ, explain this to Captain O.

She'll know how to fix it.

[dramatic music]

Attention, agents!

It seems that all the oddness has been

getting under control.

Fantastic.

Osgood, why are you not sitting on the egg

like I told you to?

I was, then I got called away to deal

with some food-related oddness,

so I told Orwell to sit on it.

No, you didn't.

Then they took over.

Hold on, that thing was an egg?

A creature egg. Where is it now?

We moved it into the hallway.

[Onom gasping]

If nobody's sitting on the egg, it'll hatch,

-and if it hatches-- -This will happen.

[Onom gasps]

[animal growls]

[mouse squeaks]

[Everyone] Aw!

-[mouse roars] -[children screaming]

[announcer] To be continued.

[metal squeaks]

I joined because birds should fly,

not do jigsaw puzzles.

I joined because pretzels should not have feelings.

I joined because books shouldn't be making bagels.

Oh, I hate that it smells so good.

-We are... -We are...

-We are... -We are

[all] Odd Squad!

[Captain O] Since the beginning of time,

and we're talking way back,

we've been fighting odd.

In our spare time,

we also like to make pictures of ourselves.

I really like this one.

There's no case too big, no case too small.

At Odd Squad, we do it all.

[birds crowing]

And yes, that is a flock of flying toast.

It's wheat bread, if you were wondering.

Join Odd Squad on the PBS Kids games app,

and you'll get top notch training in the secrets

of Odd Squad, including

Sector :

where to look for odd creatures

and what to do when you find them.

It's important to learn your way around Sector .

It has a lot of odd creatures.

And at Odd Squad, we like our odd creatures.

We're always updating our creature files

because the odd is out there.

You can also watch Odd Squad cases on PBS Kids.

Is that over there also a normal British thing?

-[electricity zapping] -[thunder cracking]

No, that's definitely odd.

Let's do this.

Odd Squad needs you, and I need the lights off.

[lights clicking]

Well, what are you waiting for?

Go!

[light dramatic music]

[announcer] And now the rest of the story.

[light dramatic music]

Don't beat yourself up, Ozzie.

You made a mistake.

It's not a big deal.

It's a huge deal.

You're Orli with an I, not Orly with a Y,

the best agent in the world.

Now this entire day is a mess.

Really?

The way I see it, I got to come to a new country,

meet a new friend, and solve a bunch of really odd cases.

And by the way, everything seems really quiet here.

Maybe everything's under control.

-[air whooshing] -[people chattering]

Then again, maybe not.

-[alarm ringing] -Onom, what's going on?

[Onom] There was this creature egg that was supposed to stay warm,

but it didn't, and now we have a huge problem.

-Hi. -[Onom shrieks]

[Orli] I know there's a lot going on right now,

but we haven't met, and I think we should do it real quick.

Just get it out of the way so it isn't weird later.

Oh, I like her.

Nice to meet you, my name is Onom.

It's short for Onomatopoeia.

How do you spell that?

-Just the way it sounds. -Cool.

You must be the famous Orly, the best agent in the world.

I'm definitely an Orli,

but the best agent Orli is another "Orly."

-[light dramatic music] -What?

Oh, I found it.

No time to explain.

We need to find Captain O so we can get it all sorted.

That could be a problem.

[both gasping]

[Onom] Oh man, I wish you guys told me you were both gonna

gasp at the same time; I would've loved to join in.

Onom, what's going on?

There's a creature on the loose in headquarters

called an Icy Mouse-y, and it's freezing things.

Captain O, wink if I got that right.

[bell chimes]

[Ozzie] This is terrible!

I think we should check in with Orwell.

He might know how to help.

That could also be a problem.

[air whooshing]

[both gasping]

Oh, missed it again.

What do we do?

We need to figure out where the Icy Mouse-y is headed next.

Ozzie and I can do that.

Maybe, probably. If we try really hard.

Works for me.

This is what the Icy Mouse-y looks like.

You can use this gadget to catch it

while I go run and hide.

What? No.

Onom, you need to get everyone to the safe room.

How?

Everyone is hiding and too scared to move.

Look at Opie.

I'm safe here, thanks.

See?

I have something that will help.

[bell chimes]

It's a book I put together

with information about every agent that works here,

listing all the things they really like.

With this, we can convince them to head to the safe room.

Watch this.

Opie, the safe room has nachos.

[Opie gasps]

I love nachos!

I'm on my way.

[Onom] Nice work, Ozzie. I'll take it.

[all] Good luck, everyone!

Hey, we all just said the same thing at the same time.

Did we all just become best friends for life?

[mouse squeaks]

We'll decide later. Go, go, go!

[dramatic music]

We can work here.

It's safe.

-Good call, partner. -Again, we are not partners.

Right, we're just working together.

Exactly.

-To solve an odd case. -Bingo.

-For Odd Squad. -Okay,

I see what you're doing.

Let's start with what we know.

The Icy Mouse-y froze the rooms

that Captain O and Orwell were in.

Maybe it's following a pattern.

Captain O was in room number two.

Orwell was in room number four.

That could be something.

I got it!

The Icy Mouse-y's counting by twos.

Follow me.

[suspenseful music]

[mouse squeaks]

[watch beeps]

First it froze room two, then four,

so the next room it'll strike is

-six. -Six!

[both shushing]

You'll need to lead the way since

you know headquarters so well.

Funny story about room number six,

it has an echo, but only when you say the word bananas.

Ozzie.

Less story, more creeping?

-Got it. -[dramatic music]

Room six is on the right!

[Ozzie] We made it before the Icy Mouse-y.

[panting] Great, now we'll be ready.

As soon as it comes around the corner,

we zap it with this.

-[mouse squeaks] -[ominous music]

It struck someplace else.

This is bananas! [echoing]

Do you hear the echo?

It's time to run again, isn't it?

-[dramatic music] -Come on, let's go.

[Ozzie gasps]

Agent Onaldo.

He is so good at football.

[Orli] Room eight? This makes no sense.

Let's look at the numbers again.

[watch beeps]

Two, four, eight.

It's not a counting-by-twos pattern,

it's a doubling pattern.

[Ozzie] Right, because if you double two, you get four.

[Orli] And if you double four, you get eight,

and the double of eight is sixteen.

Funny story, room was originally a bread room,

but then a bunch of birds found it and now it's just--

Crumbs?

No, empty.

Quick, let's go.

[dramatic music]

[Onom gasps]

Oh no, the Icy Mouse-y froze Osgood!

I'm not frozen.

Then why are you holding extremely still?

If the Icy Mouse-y thinks I'm frozen, it won't freeze me.

That's not how it works.

Trust me, you'll be safer in the safe room.

No, thank you.

What if I told you the safe room

had a table football pitch in it?

I love table football.

[light dramatic music]

Room , still not frozen.

Which means the Icy Mouse-y should be arriving

-any second now. -[Onom screams]

The Icy Mouse-y just hit room !

Woo, there's a really good part about Orwell in here.

Anyway, ahhh!

-Room ? -At least it's more data.

[gasps] You're a glass- half-full person like me.

I really hope the two of us can become pen pals

when this is all over.

Orli.

Right, back on track.

Let's go back to the lab and look at the data.

[light dramatic music]

I don't think we're any closer to catching the Icy Mouse-y.

The room numbers are all over the place--

, , , , , .

[Ozzie] How do we stop this thing?

I bet the other Orly would've known what to do.

I only came here with a ridiculous Towelinator gadget

and made a mess of everything.

Hey, don't beat yourself up.

Besides, you wanna hear about a mess?

One time Agent O'Keith decided to paint all the doors

in headquarters different colors.

He spilled paint everywhere--

yellow, blue, green, red, you name it.

Ozzie, that's it!

Maybe the Icy Mouse-y is following a color pattern.

What are the door colors of all the rooms that were frozen?

[light music]

The same colors as the creature.

[Orli] And check it out.

First it struck a yellow door, then blue, then green.

Then it repeats. Yellow, blue, green.

It's a pattern.

So the next room it'll strike is a room

with a yellow door.

Pulling up all remaining yellow doors in headquarters.

[computer beeping]

Uh oh.

[suspenseful music]

It's the safe room.

Is that the same safe room where

all the agents are hiding?

We need to hurry.

[tense music]

There's the safe room door!

And there's the Icy Mouse-y!

[mouse squeaks]

Aw, it's kinda cute.

-[air whooshes] -[Ozzie shrieks]

Not so cute.

-Quick! -Go, go, go!

-[mouse squeaks] -[light dramatic music]

[gadget zapping]

[Orli] It's way too quick.

[Ozzie] It's jumping all about! How do we stop it?

With my Towelinator.

I cover myself in a yellow towel

to distract the Icy Mouse-y from the yellow door.

Once it locks eyes on me, it should give you

enough time to zap it.

But what if it freezes you?

-[glass shattering] -Oh, it's there!

It won't.

I believe in us.

-[mouse squeaks] -[light dramatic music]

Nice Icy Mouse-y.

[suspenseful music]

[gadget zaps]

[mouse squeaks]

Hey, Icy Mouse-y, look at me!

[light dramatic music]

Show's over, Icy Mouse-y.

-[gadget zaps] -[mouse squeaks]

[Orli] Did you get it?

-Yes. -[mouse squeaks]

Yes, I did.

Is it safe?

-Totally. -It's having a nap.

Come on, guys.

-Nice job. -[everyone cheering]

Look it!

It's really cute.

And I didn't realize it was Orli with an I

instead of Orly with a Y until it was too late.

I'm really sorry.

[Orli] It was an honest mistake, Captain O.

Once you sign my transfer papers,

you can get the real Orly here,

and everything will be fine.

Also, it's really nice to meet you.

Have I said that yet?

It's nice to meet you too, Orli,

and I want you to stay.

-What? -What?

The two of you work great together.

You solved a ton of oddness in town,

stopped a creature that was on the loose,

and managed to get Onom to make a rec room

with a bouncy castle inside it.

And the three of us have become such great friends

that we always say the same things at the same time now.

For real?

[all] Yeah.

[Onom] Nailed it.

[Captain O] You belong here, Orli,

that's why I'm making you and Ozzie partners.

Welcome to precinct .

[gadget whooshing]

We're officially partners!

Wait, does that mean I'm an agent?

[Orli] So cool, right?

I am gonna put this on my desk,

which will be next to your desk

because we're partners! Woohoo!

[door closes]

Are you sure I'm ready for this?

Ozzie, you used to run your own Odd Squad as a Mr. O.

You can do this.

But what if what happened before happens again?

The whole reason I quit was--

It won't happen again, Ozzie, because I've got your back.

Speaking of back,

mine hurts from standing.

Could you get me an ice pick? My feet are freezing.

-Right away, Captain O. -[shivering]

Oh, hot chocolate flavored juice box.

-[light dramatic music] -[liquid slurping]

-[upbeat music] -[typewriter keys clack]

Welcome to Osgood's Imaginarium of Culinary Delights,

otherwise known as the break room.

This area of HQ is where agents come to relax,

have a break and let Osgood-- that's me--cook for them.

A lot of agents ask me how I make my fresh socks

and smelly cheese toasty.

It's a secret family recipe, but not my family,

so I can tell you.

First, take your bread.

Now, I'm using brown bread.

Then, take a pair of socks.

Finally, add a big old slice of smelly Stilton cheese.

[upbeat music]

Voila.

Oh.

Something about this one doesn't smell quite right.

Osgood, have you seen my dirty green socks?

[upbeat music]

[Orli] Welcome to Odd Squad, A Guide to Your Gadgets.

Behold the Portalinator, gadget number classified.

The Portalinator creates portals into other worlds.

Goat World, so dangerous.

Think Ice Cream World looks fun?

Think again.

Weirdly enough, Danger World? Totally safe.

Oona went there last spring with her friend Shelly.

Good times.

Remember, knowledge is power, power is gadgets,

and gadgets is sunshine.
