02x29 - Where There's a Wolf, There's a Way/New Jacket Required

Post by bunniefuu »

[Ms. O] Coming up next,

on Odd Squad...

Agent Olaf turned into a werewolf!

The odd part is he's turning back into a boy!

I'm sending you and your partner into Potatoland,

and you'll need special training.

We're losing him.

My name is Agent Olympia.

This is my partner, Agent Otis.

This is a football running for mayor.

But back to Otis 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.









[Olympia] Who do we work for?

We work for Odd Squad.

[Ms. O] "Where There's a Wolf,

There's a Way."

Thanks for coming, Odd Squad.

What seems to be the problem?

This is not my face.

Um... Whose face is it?

No idea, but it's not mine.

Look. I have this large, framed poster

of my actual face.

That looks like your face, but with a moustache.

Oh, my... I forgot that I shaved.

I'm so sorry to have wasted your time.

But to make it up to you, I'd like to give you

this poster of my face!

Oh! Thank you.

[Man] Actually, you really should have

the autographed version.

Oh, wait, wait, wait.

You met me without a moustache,

so you should have this one!

Um... How many posters of your face do you have?

Seven hundred and nine.

This is technically a museum.

It's a museum of my face.

Ooh! I love this one:

the oil painting.

Hey, Coach. You wanted to see me?

There you are!

Something super weird is going down.

Okay.

That's what Ms. O usually says, right?

Uh... Sorta.

Where's your partner?

The girl.

With glasses.

And the hands.

With the glasses.

Olympia's just finishing lunch.

Do you want me to go--

No time!

Agent Olaf turned into a werewolf!

[whistles]

[howls]

I already knew that.

The odd part is he's turning back into a boy!

It's truuuuuue!

And that's a problem because...?

Because Olaf is much happier as a werewolf!

Also, he's been a big help to Odd Squad.

Olaf finally made peace with the Werewolf Council

after years of conflict.

[growling]

So we need to fix this,

which is why I'm sending you and your partner

to Potatoland to find a special potato

to cure him.

Special potato?

Yes. This is going to be a difficult

and dangerous mission,

and you'll need special training

to get through Potatoland.

I'd do it myself, but I pulled a hammy.

Getting old is the worst, man!

Anyway, here's a bag of money.

It's the budget for your training.

Budget? So that's the amount of money we have to spend.

Yes. There are three parts to your training.

Each part costs Jackalope dollars.

[Otis] ...seven, eight, nine, ten.

There are Jackalope dollars in the stack,

and we have three stacks,

so that's , , .

We have Jackalope dollars in our budget.

First stop, I'm sending you to the best in the business:

track-and-field expert Joy LaFleur.

Joy LaFleur? Isn't she a part-time photographer?

[laughs] Yes.

The other part of her time, she's a track-and-field coach.

[whistling] Go, go, go!

[whistles]

Hey, partner. What did I miss?

Do you want the long version or the short?

Short.

Werewolf. Potato. Thirty bucks.

Got it.

Olympia and Otis.

[Both] Joy LaFleur.

I'm going to train you to jump over

the mashed-potato pits in Potatoland.

I'll go get the water.

But first, I need your payment.

No problem.

It's Jackalope dollars for training, right?

That's for the basic package.

But since this is such an important mission,

you may want to consider the deluxe package.

It comes with musicians and fancy outfits.

Ooh.

We'll take it.





[Joy] Olympia and Otis are approaching

the final hurdle,

and are about to cross the finish line...

Ohhh!

What an incredible training session!

The crowd goes wild!

[pre-recorded cheers]

That was amazing, Joy!

Orange slice?

Ooh.

I cannot believe it's only cost us Jackalope dollars.

Uh... .

The deluxe package that your partner bought

cost Jackalope dollars.

Worth it.

Otis, we're only supposed to spend !

[sighs]

Thank you.

Our budget for our three trainings

was Jackalope dollars.

We should have paid Jackalope dollars

to Joy LaFleur for this training

and had dollars left,

but instead, you paid Jackalope dollars.

That's from this stack and five from this one.

Now we only have dollars left

for our last two trainings!

I wanted us to have a strong start.

Plus, I really like oranges.

Come on, kid!

Stay a werewolf!

Keep your eyes on the moon and give me a howl!

[quietly] Owwoo...

Ugh!

I'm losing him!

Jump training complete, Coach.

Ready for those mashed-potato pits.

Well, it only gets harder.

You've got to train for the next part of your mission:

potato-salad avalanche.

You like potato salad?

At a picnic. Sort of.

Well, you're not gonna like two tons of it

falling down a mountain, coming right at ya!

Which is why I'm sending you to Karate Kurt for training.

Got it.

And hurry! Your werewolf friend is starting to shed

all over my office!

[howls weakly]

[whistling] Go, go, go!

[whistles]

[Otis] Karate Kurt? Coach O sent us.

Ah, yes.

You guys are here for the -dollar class.

Actually, do you have anything cheaper?

We're trying to save money.

Mm.

I can teach you fast karate for five dollars.

It's karate, but faster.

Just a moment.

We have Jackalope dollars left in our budget.

If we pay five Jackalope dollars for fast karate,

we'll have ten dollars left for our last training session.

We'll be back on budget!

We're in.

[quickly] You guys are going to love this.

It'll be so much fun. And fast!

I think he's already started.

Oh.

Hi-ya!

Hi-ya!

Hi-ya!

[uptempo drumming]

[uptempo drumming]

Time out!

So, what do you guys think of the training so far?

Fast.

Really fast.

Yeah. I've been doing it for a while,

but I still think it's really fast.

[uptempo drumming]

Hi-ya!

Hi-ya!

[uptempo drumming]

Training complete.

My face...

Losing your hair is a state of mind.

Last year, I was bald.

Look at me now!

Hi, Coach O.

Karate training is complete.

It was amazing!

Look at us!

Wait. Where'd you get that?

It's a souvenir photo.

Karate Kurt sold it to me on the way out.

It was only seven dollars.

Seven dollars?!

But we had so much fun.

Now we can remember it forever!

Yay!

[Otis] We had dollars left

to spend on our last training,

but you spent seven of it on the picture...

so now we only have three dollars left.

[Coach O] And you still have to train

for the hardest part of the mission: the dragon.

Think fast!

[Otis] Whoa!

And the real dragon is much scarier!

What you have here is a potato-guarding dragon.

He's big, he's mean, and he's good at his job.

He's also really devoted to his family,

but that's not important right now.

How do we stop him?

You've got to throw a bottle of slime

right in its mouth...

which is why I'm sending you

to the world's best slime-throwing coach,

Joy LaFleur.

The part-time track coach, part-time photographer?

There are many parts to a time.

[Olaf] Oh, no!

[Coach O] And hurry!

We're losing him.

[whistles] Go, go, go, go, go, go!

Oh, hey, guys.

Are you here for more track training

or photography lessons?

Nope. Slime throwing.

Oh. Great.

So our -dollar class includes slime buckets,

rain jackets, and special targets

that look like dragons.

Oh, and, uh... musicians, of course.

Um... We only have three dollars left.

Can you cut us a deal?

Okay, I'll give you the slime.

But no rain jackets and no targets.

Then what do we use as targets?

[Joy] Go! Yes!





Okay. You think you got it?

[sighs] Yes.

I could use a little more practice.

Are you serious?





Come on! Let's--

Alright. Your training is complete.

Time to go to Potatoland and get that potato.

Do you guys want a lift?

I'm also a part-time pilot.

We have no money left.

Oh. Well...

this is awkward.

I'll put this back on...

It's inside out.

[Olympia] We're just gonna go

to Potatoland.

Almost got it.

Ha! There's the other one.

[howling weakly]

[Olympia] Oh, no! He's almost full-boy!

Hurry! Touch the potato!

We did it!

That was close.

[howls]

Whoa! You went to Potatoland without me?

You told us we had to move fast.

I didn't think you'd move that fast!

I always wanted to see Potatoland.

I can bring you all there...

with my magnificent wings!

[All] Whoa!

[Male singer] ♪ High up in the air

♪ It's the Flying Werewolf Potato Boy! ♪

♪ Potato, potato

♪ Sha la la la la la la la la ♪

♪ What about that boy with the furry face? ♪

♪ Gonna flap, flap, flap the fancy wings ♪

♪ And fly all over the place! Go! ♪

♪ Everybody lick, everybody scratch ♪

♪ Everybody howl for joy!

♪ Now eat a snack on the back of the Potato Boy! ♪

♪ "How to Afford Office Supplies." ♪

Howdy-do, agents!

Part of my job as Odd Squad Lab Director

is to buy new supplies for the lab,

and today, I realized there's a secret, special something

I really need this month

that costs dollars.

Unfortunately, there's no money left in the lab budget

this month to buy it.

The budget is the amount of money I have

to spend on things.

I went to see Ms. O to see if the lab could have

a little extra money this month.

Here's what she said:

[growls]

So... new idea:

I can save money from other parts of the budget

by not buying things I don't need,

then I can use the money I save up

to buy that secret, special something.

Says here I spend dollars each month on...

lights?

Pfft!

I can totally do without lights this month!

[crashing and shattering]

Apparently, I need lights.

What about...

dollars for gravity?

Who needs gravity?

Aaah!

[thud]

Let's find some things we really don't need.

Fifteen dollars for eyeglasses?

Must have been the Oscar thing.

See ya!

That just saved me big ones!

I spend four dollars every month on staples?

Bye-bye!

Because I have...

a Staple-Inator!

[zap]

That saves four more dollars!

Now I have dollars to spend.

Just one more dollar left to go

until I can afford that secret, special something.

I spend one dollar every month on the letter S?

I guess I could get rid of that.

Uper! I have aved dollar!

You know what that mean?

Now I can afford my ecret, pecial omething...

an accordion!

Would you like to hear a ong?



I love aving!

[Ms. O] "New Jacket Required."

[zap, zap]

Oh! Hey, Oona.

We're looking for someone with an odd problem.

Oh, that's me! I called.

I have a green thumb.

Why don't you fix it yourself?

I would...

but I don't have any gadgets.

What?! But you always have gadgets.

[Oona] That's only when I'm working.

Today's my day off.

You can tell because I'm wearing jeans.

Okay. I mean, can't you just wait 'til

we're back at the office--

No!

Please, we have to hurry.

Okay. I have an Un-Green-Thumb-Inator.

I made that.

[zap]

Ooh. That tingled.

Ah-ah-ah... Okay. Thanks, Odd Squad.

Oona, what do you think of this fennel?

Thumbs up, Shelley!

That was a close one.

Hey, Ms. O.

There you two are.

Something very odd has happened.

You remember Mr. Lightning?

He created an evil machine that can do

many different evil things.

It will take a while to explain.

Ms. O, sorry to interrupt, but does it really matter

what the machine does?

Yeah. 'Cause if it does, we're willing to listen,

but if it doesn't, then--

You have to get it from him is the most important part.

We can do that.

Totally.

Great. You just saved us two hours.

Since we're ahead of schedule,

Otis is getting a new jacket.

What's wrong with this one?

Mainly the entire back of it.

It's just a little worn-in, is all.

Otis, this is a professional workplace.

I hear what you're saying, but all the same,

I'd prefer to keep--

You're coming with me to get a new jacket.

End of story.

Olympia, start tracking down Mr. Lightning.

O'Q is the Odd Squad tailor.

Suits, shoes, socks, ties -

this guy does it all.

[English accent] Greetings, Ms. O.

O'Q, Otis needs a new jacket.

He certainly does.

Not to worry, Ms. O.

I will take it from here.

Cheerio!

[O'Q] Right, then.

Time to retire that knackered old jacket

and get you into this spiffy new one.

It looks the same as my old jacket.

It might look the same,

but this jacket

comes with all the latest tools

to fight oddness.

Say you've come face-to-face with a villain,

and he's a nasty old fellow.

What do you do?

Call for backup.

No.

Raise your right arm and double-tap your middle button.

Go on.

And that is just the tip of the iceberg.

Speaking of iceberg, check your inside pocket.

Iceberg lettuce?

And here is the instruction manual.

My personal favorite: tap all the buttons at once,

and your jacket can sh**t a plunger across the room!

Listen. No offense, but I don't really need

all these buttons.

And seeing as I'm in the middle of a case--

Best hurry along, then. Cheerio.

Salad dressing's in your collar.

[Olympia gasps]

Is that the brand-new high-tech jacket

O'Q's been working on?

How can you even tell?

Top stitch around the pockets, buttons are slightly larger,

and lapel's slightly smaller.

I also believe it comes with an instruction manual...?

[gasps] You got the instruction manual!

Otis, we need to try out some of these new features!

Olympia, you know me.

I'm not the type of guy who wants all the extra

bells and whistles.

[zap]

Nice! You figured out the Voice Activation feature.

More good news: according to Baby Genius,

Mr. Lightning lives at Villain Estates.

The Ice Cream Surveillance truck is ready to go.

[jingling and rattling]

I'll figure out how to fix that.

Okay.

[Otis] You can park it here, Orson.

So, what floor does Mr. Lightning live on?

That's the tricky thing.

Baby Genius could only give me a clue because of

the no-tattletale code.

Mr. Lightning used to live on the first floor,

but recently, he moved three floors down.

Don't you mean three floors up?

That's what I thought,

but check out the building blueprint for Villain Estates.

What am I looking at here?

This is a number line, but it goes up and down

instead of from left to right.

The numbers go up from zero and down from zero

into negative numbers.

So Villain Estates has negative floors.

And since Baby Genius said Mr. Lightning used to live on

the first floor, but recently moved three floors down...

We start at one and count three down:

zero, negative one, negative two.

Mr. Lightning lives on -.

[Olympia] Nice work, partner.

Olympia, I'm on floor -, but I don't know

which apartment belongs to Mr. Lightning.

There's a shrinking function on your jacket

that can make you tiny.

That way, you can sneak under the door

and see if Mr. Lightning is inside.

Just tap your left lapel pin.

[sighs] Fine.

[alarm blaring]

[Electronic voice] Alarm mode activated!

Uh, what's happening?

Did you tap or push?

What's the difference?

I don't know.

[Electronic voice] Odd Squad! Odd Squad!

Stop right there!

Olympia, how do I shut this off?

Uh... Reading... Reading...

Well, well, well.

If it isn't Odd Squad.

Who are you?

Uh, Ms. Tornado! I mean, clearly!

[Electronic voice] Come to headquarters,

immediately!

I'm not going anywhere with you!

That's my jacket. Ignore it.

[Electronic voice] Do not ignore this order.

Sounds like it's... tornado time!

[cackling]

Uh oh.

Missed.

[panting]

[panting]

[Man] Odd Squad!

Evil Janitor?

Actually, I'm just a regular janitor.

I'm looking for Mr. Lightning.

[Janitor] Oh, you're on the wrong floor.

He moved in with Evil Landscaper about a week ago.

On which floor?

Sorry, no-tattletale code.

That only applies to villains!

I agreed to the code in order to get the job here.

Nothing personal. I gotta earn a living.

Can you at least give me a clue?

That I can do.

Evil Landscaper lives two floors down from here.

[Otis] I'm on - right now,

and the Evil Landscaper lives floors down,

so -, -.

The Evil Landscaper lives on -.

Hey, does this have something to do with that evil machine

that Mr. Lightning built?

Yes.

Be careful. That thing's got--

I just need to get it from him.

[Janitor] Fair enough.

Olympia, long story, but I'm on floor -.

Apparently, Mr. Lightning and Evil Landscaper

are roommates now.

Any information about what apartment they live in?

Accessing records.

[sighs] I've got nothing.

Aha! I found you.

Olympia, I've got trouble.

Give me a jacket function I can use.

If you tap all your buttons, you can sh**t a plunger!

Something useful!

Uh... Tug your right sleeve to turn invisible.

[Electronic voice] Wings activated.

Olympia, why do I have wings?

Did you tug or pull?

I don't know! I'm stuck!

[laughs] Looks like there's nowhere to run this time!

Ms. Tornado, listen: I'm not here for you.

I just need to know what apartment

Evil Landscaper lives in.

[Man] Then you're in luck.

Is that Evil Landscaper?

I can't see behind me.

It's me, Evil Landscaper.

And I'm not going anywhere with you. [cackles]

[cackles]

[Both cackling]

Guys, guys, guys!

I just need to find Mr. Lightning.

That we can help you with.

Yeah. We don't really like that guy.

[Landscaper] Wait until I get through here.

[Ms. Tornado] Coming through here? This way?

[Landscaper] Yeah. Am I okay?

[Ms. Tornado] Watch that, please.

[Landscaper] Oh, watch out for that.

Whoa.

He forgot to water my plants.

I specifically told him my cinnamon ferns

require constant moisture!

Where is he now?

We can't tell you exactly 'cause there's

a no-tattletale code.

Uh, but we can give you a clue.

He's been hanging out in the business center,

six floors up from here.

[Ms. Tornado] Ooh.

Fancy-schmancy!

Bit fancy for me, thank you very much.

Yeah, let's get out of here.

See you later.

"Oh, wow. So nice. Ooh, look at my thing!"

No, I just throw tornadoes. Who cares?

[Landscaper] Yeah, not a big deal at all.

Alright, so I'm on floor - and the business center

is six floors up from here.

Going up means we're adding,

so we're moving up the number line:

negative three, negative two, negative one,

then zero, one, two.

The business center is on the second floor!

Olympia, how do I close?

Tug your right sleeve again.

Thanks. I'm headed to floor number two -

back to positive numbers.

I think I've finally got him.

Mr. Lightning, stop right there!

And why would I do that?

In this briefcase is an evil machine that will do

so many evil things!

For example, it's got the power to--

I just need the thing.

Well, fair enough.

Answer's still no.

I would reconsider.

Olympia, what are you doing here?

I'm here to let Mr. Lightning know that you have

a brand-new jacket with a bunch of brand-new functions

that he's going to use to defeat you.

And I'm going to help, with this instruction manual.

Pa-kow!

[Olympia gasps]

[Mr. Lightning laughs]

Pa-kow!

I mean, come on... Pa-kow!

The book, the book!

[Mr. Lightning] Pa-kow!

I'm sorry, Otis. This is all my fault.

I wanted you to use your new jacket

and I pushed you too hard!

Maybe you didn't push enough.

What?

I need to go out there and push more buttons

on my jacket.

That seems like a really bad idea.

Totally, but we need to get that evil machine

from Mr. Lightning.

Alright, Mr. Lightning.

See if you can handle this.

[Electronic voice] Toast activated.

[laughs] Did you just make me toast?

With a side order of this!

[Electronic voice] Activating

soothing ocean sounds.

Yeah, that's nice...

There's nothing here! It's all burnt!

And this!

Adorable. Adorable!

And this!

Gonna stay dry!

Whoa! Forcefield!

Pa-kow!

Oh, come on!

Activate the plunger!

Tapping all the buttons.

[grunts]



[slow-motion] No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

[Otis] I got it, Olympia!

Hey, that's my evil machine!

That was your evil machine.

Noooooo--

Hey, you mind keeping it down?

I'm trying to do some cleaning over here,

and I find that very distracting.

Oh. You know, sorry.

My bad.

[miming]

[miming]

You know, I could get used to this jacket.

Afraid that will not be happening any time soon.

What? Why?

I have been monitoring it from my office.

It is far too dangerous.

It needs some adjustments before anyone wears it again.

Maybe it just needs someone who knows how to handle it.

Whoa!

[crash]

[Olympia gasps]

Definitely need to get rid of that ejection seat function.

Yeah.

Right now, we're on the ground floor, floor .

Everything above ground floor is a number larger than zero,

a positive number,

and everything below ground floor

Say we wanted to take a trip to floor -.

Since - is below zero,

it's below the zero on the number line:

right... here.

Here we are: floor -,

the stick floor!



Now let's take a little ride up to

one of my favorite floors: floor number two.

That's positive two, not negative two,

The marshmallow floor.

Don't mind if I do!

And now, our last stop: floor -,

way below the ,

down... here.
