[RATTLING]

Way up high in the Rolie Polie sky

Is a little round planet
Of a really nice guy

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

He's Rolie Polie Olie
He's small and smart and round

And in the land of curves and curls
He's the swellest kid around

-Howdy
-Howdy

-Hooray
-Hooray

And in the land of curves and curls
He's the swellest kid around

He's Rolie Polie Olie
He's small and smart and round

And in the land of curves and curls
He's the swellest kid around

-Howdy
-Howdy

-Hooray
-Hooray

And in the land of curves and curls
He's the swellest kid around

And in the land of curves and curls
He's the swellest kid

The swellest kid around

[ALL CHEER]

Even though
the little pie chart constellation

is 3.1416 billion miles away...

On a clear night,
you can see every slice.

The end.

MISS TRIANGLE: Very nice, kids.

Olie and Screwy, are you ready
to give your report?

Um, well, we...

Olie wanted to do some cruddy,
curvy constellation, so I did my own.

Okay...

Who would like to go first?

-[CHALK SCREECHING ON BLACKBOARD]
-[GRUNTS]

[CLEARS THROAT]

The Widget constellation
is my favoritest constellation.

But it's fading away 'cause nobody
watches it anymore.

I never heard of the Widget constellation.

It's my favorite-st 'cause it's pointy
and 'cause "W" is a letter in my name.

-I haven't heard of it either.
-And mostly, it's my favorite-st

'cause hardly nobody's heard of it
and it's going extinct.

-That's all I know.
-Thank you, Screwy.

Does anyone have any questions?

-Billy?
-What's "extinct"?

Ugh! Extinct's when something's not going
to be around at all anymore.

The Widget constellation's headed
for the big junk heap.

-MISS TRIANGLE: Olie.
-OLIE: What can we do to stop

the Widget constellation
from going extinct?

Nothing. Not enough folks watch
it anymore,

so it's just going to fade away.

POLLIE PI: What if we start
a Widget-watching club?

Yeah. That way, we Widget watchers

can watch the Widget constellation
every night and it won't go extinct.

Aah, it probably won't work.

-OLIE: But maybe it will.
-We can always try.

-BILLY: Yeah.
-Widget Watchers Club to the rescue!

-Whoa! What's all the hullabaloo?
-I got to get the telescope.

All us bots at the Thinking Cap School
are going

to save
Screwy's favorite-st constellation.

That's great, you're all looking out
for Screwy.

It's not Screwy.

It's just kind of sad
a whole constellation's going to fade out

'cause nobody is watching it.

PERCY: Let me give you a hand.

[GRUNTS] There we go.

PERCY: According to my calculations,
it should be right...

[GRUNTS]

...there.

Jumpin' Jupiters! [CHUCKLES]

-[LAUGHS]
-Hmm.

Oh. [CHUCKLES] Thanks, son.

[CLEARING THROAT] It should be right...

There she glows!

-ZOWIE: What doing, Olie?
-OLIE: Watching the Widget constellation.

ZOWIE: Me see, me see!

-Widget cute.
-OLIE: It sure is.

That's why we have to keep it
from going extinct.

ZOWIE: What "extinct," Olie?

OLIE: If nobody watches a constellation
sometimes it just fades right out.

-Widget fade, Olie?
-Not if I can help it.

[LAUGHS]

[OLIE SNORING]

Sleepy time, beddy time, jammy time, too.

But I've got to... [YAWNS] ...watch
the Widget constellation.

Since it's sleepy time for you,
I'll take a turn.

-Okey-dokey.
-[OLIE EXHALING SHARPLY]

Oh, that little constellation sure
is cute.

[BILLY SNORING]

Wow!

[HOWLS]

ALL: [CHANTING] Watch the Widget!
Watch the Widget!

[CAR HORN HONKING]

-[CAR HORN HONKING]
-[GASPS] Watchee Widget! Watchee Widget!

[EXCLAIMING] The Widget watchers
of the world, unite!

[ALL CHEER]

[BARKS]

NEWS PRESENTER: [OVER RADIO]
And in other news, Olie Polie,

Billy Bevel, Pollie Pi and Zowie Polie
are out to save the Widget constellation.

-You're doing quite a job, Olie.
-I just hope I'm not too late.

Oh, no!

[SIGHS]

ZOWIE: What wrong, Olie?

It's not working. Widgie's fading fast.

-Why Widgie fade?
-I don't know, Zowie.

Maybe Widgie doesn't know we're watching.

Hey!

The Widget Watching Club's
going to meet in the park tonight.

Bring your parents, grandparents,
everybody.

We're going to let Widgie know
we're watching.

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

-You two stand here.
-GIZMO: Okey-dokey.

There we go.

We'll take this side over here.

[GASPS]

Oh, no!

Listen up, everybody.
Zowie's going to do the countdown.

Sixty... three...

tooty-eleven...

seven... one!

Hey!

Groovy.

-It sees us. It sees us!
-[ALL CHEERING]

-Good work, Olie.
-We sure are proud of all you bots.

-BOTH: Yes.
-Thanks. Everybody helped.

-Widgie, widgie, widgie! [LAUGHING]
-We did it.

-We saved your favorite-st constellation.
-Uh, yeah, thanks, orbhead.

Except it's not really
my favorite-st anymore.

But you have "Ws" in your name
and... and everything.

SCREWY: I changed my mind.

My new favorite-st constellation
is out in the rust belt.

It's really fading.

Oh, well.

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

[OLIE HUMMING]

Billy... oh, you boys haven't finished
your class project yet.

-I thought you said it was due tomorrow.
-No hurry, Mrs. Bevel.

-We're over halfway done.
-We ran out of Connecto-blocks.

Olie's going to get some more
from his house.

[YAWNS] Eventually.

Well, you'd better get
your gears going, fellas.

It's almost bedtime. You have 15 minutes
to finish what you're doing.

-Fifteen minutes? Oh, no!
-We got to hurry, Billy!

-I'll run home and get my blocks.
-[SHOES SCREECHING]

Oh, nuts and bolts!
I should have tidied things up before.

[OLIE PANTING]

Hi, Mrs. Bevel. We're ready to finish
our castle now.

Sorry, Olie-o, but it's bedtime for Billy.

-POLINA: Olie. Time for beddy-bye.
-Oh.

Okey-dokey, Mom! Coming.
Good night, Mrs. Bevel.

-Good night, Billy.
-BILLY: Sorry, Olie.

We didn't even get to put
on the drawbridge.

Didn't the teacher give you and Billy
enough time to finish it?

Uh, yeah, she did.

We just spent too much time goofing
and not enough time working.

Well, on your next project

you'll have to make better use
of your time.

Sweet dreams. [SMOOCHES]

BILLY: [VIA RADIO] Billy to Olie.
Do you read me? Over.

-Roger, Billy. I read you.
-Sorry for calling you so late.

-I can't sleep.
-Me neither.

I can't stop thinking that we should
have finished our castle.

Me, too.

I guess Miss Triangle's going to be mad,
huh?

Probably. But there's nothing
we can do about it now.

Too bad it's too late for you
to come over.

Wait a minute.

Maybe I can't come over, Billy,
but I know what can.

Huh?

[CHUCKLES]

Keeno!

-[SIGHS]
-OLIE: [VIA RADIO] Open your window.

The Space Explorer Express is making
a delivery.

Whoa!

-Wow, Olie, good flying.
-Thanks.

The drawbridge is on.
I wish you could see it.

-It looks neato.
-I'll fly the other pieces over to you.

Let's finish this thing.

-[DOOR KNOCKING]
-Uh-oh.

-BONITA: Billy, you're not still awake?
-Quick, Olie, my mom's coming.

Fly the Space Explorer out of here.

[OLIE GRUNTING]

Billy up? Oh!

[BILLY SNORING]

Aw!

Phew!

BILLY: Billy to Olie, that was close.

OLIE: We've got to be extra careful
not to wake anyone.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

OLIE: We Polie pilots
are pretty fancy fliers, Billy.

Check this out.

BILLY: [CHUCKLING]
That's some nifty navigating, all right.

[GRUNTING, HISSES]

-Looking good, Olie. Keep 'em coming.
-OLIE: You betcha.

We're almost done. All we need
is the flag piece on top.

-[YOWLS]
-BILLY: Oh, no!

Dicey's after the Explorer, Olie.
She's knocked it off course.

-[MEOWING]
-Don't worry, Billy,

Dicey's no match for a Polie pilot
like me.

BILLY: [VIA RADIO] Be careful.
Dicey's the best bot cat around.

OLIE: Dicey's good all right,
but I think I lost her.

-[SHRIEKS]
-OLIE: Oh, no!

[GRUNTS]

[HISSES, YOWLING]

OLIE: Uh-oh, Dicey's weight
has drained Explorer's batteries.

It won't make it up to my window.

BILLY: [VIA RADIO]
Can you get it to Spot's doggy door?

[DICEY MEOWING, HISSING]

[YOWLING]

[WHIMPERS]

[BARKS]

[SIGHS] We made it, Billy.
But now the Explorer's out of power.

Guess I can't send you the flag
to finish the castle after all.

-BILLY: [VIA RADIO] Oh, well, we tried.
-[DOOR OPENING]

Good boy, Spot.

Hey, Billy, maybe we don't need
the Explorer after all.

BILLY: We don't? How else can you send
the flag over here?

[GRUNTS]

Spot's coming, Billy. Get ready.

-[GROWLS]
-[WHINES]

[YIPS]

Oh, no! Dicey's got the flag.
Now we'll never get it back.

[BARKING]

[GROWLS]

[SPOT YIPPING]

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

-[BARKS]
-[MEOWS]

Gotcha!

[YIPS]

-I got the flag, Olie. We did it!
-Yes!

-Way to go, Billy. And Spot's back.
-BILLY: Good job, Spot.

-Good boy.
-[WHINES]

[YAWNS]

-[SIGHS] Now it's really time for beddy.
-[YAWNS] You betcha.

See you tomorrow.

[SIGHING] We did it, Miss Triangle.

-We finished our castle.
-And you finished it early, I see.

BOTH: Early?

-Why, yes. It wasn't due until next week.
-[BOTH GROAN]

You boys seem pretty tired.
Did your castle take a long time to build?

Once we stopped wasting time
and got down to work, it didn't.

Yeah, then the time just kind of flew by.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

SCREWY: Watch this.

-The bestest sh*t in the world. [GRUNTS]
-[GASPS]

[CHEERING] I'm the bestest at everything.

You're good at whirling wickets, Screwy,
but you're not the bestest at everything.

Yep, I am. Bestest at everything.

Miss Triangle says it's time
for our field trip to Pappy Polie's farm.

We're going to have lots of fun
at Pappy's.

Yeah.

What's so great about a stinky old farm,
anyway?

Everything's great at Pappy's.

-Like what?
-Like the songfish.

If you sing really nice,
they swim up and sing with you.

I'm the bestest singer ever.

La, la, la, la!

And there's clucking chickens.

I'm the bestest clucker. [CLUCKS]

Pappy even promised everybody
a ride on Clippy Clop.

SCREWY: I'm the bestest Clippy Clop rider
in the whole round world.

[EXCLAIMING, LAUGHING]

Well, at Pappy's place it doesn't matter
who's the bestest.

You just go and have more fun
than a barrel of grease monkeys.

MISS TRIANGLE: All right, everybody,
time to go.

ALL: Yay!

[ALL LAUGHING]

-Are you excited, Screwy?
-Nah. It's just a stinky old farm.

Howdy! And welcome to Pappy's place.

Some of my stuff's so oldfangled
it might be newfangled to you. [LAUGHS]

Uh, go have more fun than a barrel
of grease monkeys.

Oh, and if you need help,
just give a holler.

La, la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la

-La, la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la
-[FISH HUMS]

[FISHES HUM]

La, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la

La, la-la-la, la-la, la...

La, la-la-la, la-la, la-la

I'm the world's bestest songfish caller.

-La-la-la-la
-Snacky time.

Food?

-What do you got?
-It's for the chickens.

-Here, chicky-ckicky-chicks.
-[CHICKENS CLUCKING]

I'm the bestest chicky caller
in the whole universe.

SCREWY: Oh, help!
They're trying to eat me!

[LAUGHS]

Here, chicky-chicky-chicky.

[PANTS]

-[CLUCKING]
-[YELLS]

[ALL LAUGH]

Can we have some of Old Precious's
homemade ice cream, Pappy?

If you roundy her up

I'll roundy up some
of Old Precious's precious ice cream.

ALL: Yeah.

SCREWY: I'm the bestest roundy-upper
ever.

How do you roundy Old Precious up?

You can chase her or you can get her
to chase you.

-Old Precious loves chocolate.
-Give me ice cream, you stinky old cow!

-[BELLOWS]
-Whoa!

[YELLS]

POLLIE: Can we really take Clippy
for a ride?

Oh, darn tooting.

Everybody can take a turn
while I turn out some ice cream.

-Let's go.
-POLLIE: Yeah.

-[CHUCKLES]
-[MOOS]

[NEIGHS]

-[POLLIE CHEERS]
-[NEIGHS]

-Thanks, Clippy. That was fun.
-[SNORTS]

-Billy?
-I never rode Clippy before.

-He'll make sure you don't fall.
-[SNORTS]

[LAUGHING] He's so slow,
he's almost going backwards.

[HUFFS]

-[NEIGHS]
-Whoa!

[EXCLAIMS]

Look, I'm a riding cowboy! [CHEERS]

That's giving it the old triangular try.

[CHUCKLES] I did it. Thanks, Clippy.

That was fun. [MOANS]

-You want to go now, Screwy?
-Nah. Save the bestest for lastest.

-[NEIGHS]
-[CHEERS]

[LAUGHS]

[MOOING]

-Mm, yum.
-[OLIE CHEERING]

[CLIPPY NEIGHING]

-[WHINNIES]
-Wow, Olie, you're the bestest.

Well, Pappy's my pappy,
so I've ridden Clippy a lot.

So, young fella, want to put Clippy
in gear?

-Uh, nah. Clippy's not, uh, fast enough.
-Well, around here, it doesn't matter

-who's fastest, slowest or bestest.
-But I am the bestest.

I'm sure you are, but if you need
a little help...

I don't need help. Watch.

-[NEIGHS]
-Whoa!

-Whoa, horsey! Nice horsey!
-Hey, ease up on the south end

of that northbound horse, young fella.
-Screwy, let go of his tail!

-Whoa, Clippy, whoa! [YELLING]
-[CLIPPY NEIGHING]

SCREWY: Whoa! Whoa!

I know what to do.

-[NEIGHING]
-SCREWY: Whoa!

-Whoa! Stop, horsey, stop!
-[NEIGHING]

-Whoa!
-[NEIGHS]

-[SCREWY PANTING]
-OLIE: You okey-dokey, Screwy?

Yeah, sure. No problem.

All your bolts still screwed on tight,
sonny?

[SCREWY SCOFFING]

Ah, sometimes it's bestest
to just have fun

rather than trying to be the bestest
at everything.

I was the bestest.

The bestest backward rider of anybody.

CLOCK: Cock-a-doodle-doo!

-Come along, kids. Time to head home.
-ALL: Aw!

Guess there won't be any ice cream.

Oh, I think Old Precious might have
a few scoops of double chocolate left.

ALL: Yay!

Stand back. I'm the bestest
ice cream pumper there is.
