02x31 - Other Olympia / Total Zeros

[bunniefuu]

[Ms. O] Coming up next

on Odd Squad...

- I'm Olympia. - We're both named Olympia!

What?

I guess I could call you, like, "Other Olympia".

[All] Other Olympia.

I can totally handle this.

She can't handle this.

My name is Agent Olympia.

This is my partner, Agent Otis.

This can't be taught new tricks.

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] "Other Olympia."

Thanks for coming, Odd Squad.

What seems to be the problem, Melissa?

Oh, it's Sharon.

Eh, I took a sh*t.

How can we help you?

Well, my husband took the dog out this morning, and...

look.

[deep-voiced barking]

Looks like a case of giant-dog-itis.

We've got this.

[zap]

[higher-pitched barking]

Oh! Thank you, Odd Squad.

Happy to have performed a functional duty at this occa--

Ugh, she's better at this.

Happy to help. Have a great day!

Don't you just love Tuesdays?

It's Thursday.

I know, but every Thursday, I look back on my Tuesday.

And I've got to say... it was another good one.

[Other Olympia] Hey, everyone! We're back!

Hey!

Where have you guys been?

We've been on a year-long case,

trying to track down this villain called the Sand Man.

Found him!

And it's so nice to be back.

Hey, guys.

We weren't here yet when you guys went on your mission,

but this is Otis, and I'm Olympia.

That's so funny!

We're both named Olympia.

I'm sorry. What?

Oh. My name's Olympia, too.

But I guess I could call you, like,

"Other Olympia". [chuckles]

[chuckles awkwardly]

Oh boy.

What? Why "oh boy"? No "oh boy".

You're gonna have a hard time with this.

Just because someone else has the same name as me?

Otis, I can totally handle this!

Otis, Other Olympia, have a seat.

"Other Olympia"?

Shouldn't the other Olympia be called "Other Olympia"?

Actually, she was here first,

which means I'm forced to call you "Other Olympia".

It's in the Odd Squad handbook.

If you don't like it, you could have a Name Off.

Name Off?

Yep. You throw your tie to the ground,

which starts the competition.

The winner keeps their name.

Pssh! So not necessary!

Guys, I can totally handle this.

She can't handle this.

New topic.

This is Harry.

He's got the case of the Hot Hands.

Show 'em, Harry.

[fizzling]

[Otis] Whoa.

Did you just boil water with your hand?

I don't want to brag, but... yeah.

[Ms. O] Let's look at the thermometer.

For water to be hot enough to boil,

it has to be degrees Fahrenheit,

and that's how hot Harry's hands are.

That's more than twice as hot

as a really hot summer day.

Don't worry, sir. We can fix this.

We have an un-hot-hand-inator in the lab.

[growls]

How about I bring Hot Hands Harry

into the warehouse, where he can't touch anything?

Good idea.

[Olympia] Hey, Oona.

Hey, Olympia.

Just practicing my statue pose.

I like it.

I need to check out the un-hot-hand-inator.

No problemo.

Problemo.

You haven't returned your last gadget,

the cotton-candy-inator,

so I can't give you a new one until you return it.

What? I never took out the cotton-candy-inator.

It says "Olympia" right here.

Oh, that must be the other Olympia.

Well, I'm Other Olympia.

I mean, I'm Olympia, but there's another Olympia,

so Ms. O calls me "Other Olympia"...

which is fine, you know, totally cool.

I'm just hearing words.

I'll get this straightened out.

Be right back.

[Olympia] Hey there, you.

The name's Olympia.

Cool. So comfortable with that.

So, a little mix-up with the whole name thing.

I need the cotton-candy-inator that you took from the lab

so I can take the gadget I need.

Oh. Oops.

I may have left it in a closet.

Which closet?

There are, like, so many closets.

All I remember is that it was really hot.

Hot. That's a clue.

Let me bring up the temperatures

of all the closets in headquarters.

[Olympia] These thermometers measure

the temperature in all of the closets.

The taller the line is, the hotter it is.

So which one's the hottest?

[Olympia] This line, in closet six,

is the tallest,

which means the temperature is the hottest.

It says degrees Fahrenheit, which is like summer hot.

Good thinking, Other Other Olympia.

Oh, it's just "Other Olympia".

Yeah, but I forgot I have this outside-of-work friend

called Olympia that I call "Other Olympia",

which would totally make you

"Other Other Olympia". [chuckles]

I'm fine with it.

I'm sure she'll be here with the gadget any minute.

Oh, no problem.

This look good?

I like it a little crispier, if that's okay.

[Badge phone rings]

Go for Otis.

Hey, partner. Just got the un-hot-hand-inator.

Sorry it took so long.

Had a little mix-up with Charlene.

Who's Charlene?

The name I made up for the other person who stole my name.

I told you she'd have a problem with this.

Maybe you should have that Name Off.

Seems a little extreme.

I'm sure I'll get used to this.

Hey, Other Olympia.

[shudders] All cool.

Be right there.

I may have overdone it.

[beeping]

[Owen] Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Hold it right there!

Agents are allowed only one elevator card,

so I turned that one off.

What are you talking about?

I only have one elevator card!

Other Olympia!

Oh, yeah, right.

Like there's just some other Olympia

using your elevator card!

Nice try, but I wasn't born yesterday.

I think I would have remembered that

if it was just yesterday I was born.

And she's gone.

Oh, hi, triple O.

Hey there... Missy.

I need your, uh-- my--

whoever's elevator card.

Oh no. I don't have it.

Did you leave it in one of the hot closets?

More like a cold closet.

But instead of a closet, it wasn't a closet.

A room?

Ha! That's the word.

Okay, let me bring up all the rooms in headquarters

that are degrees or lower.

Those would all feel cold.

[Olympia] Whoa. That's a lot of rooms.

We need to narrow it down.

Do you remember anything else?

Well, there was ice everywhere.

Aha, water freezes and becomes ice

at degrees Fahrenheit,

so I just need to find a room that's degrees or lower.

There it is.

The line is at degrees Fahrenheit.

That means ice would form.

That must be where the card is.

Good job, Olympia.

Thank you!

I was talking to myself.

Of course you were.

Gotcha!

Otis, I'm on my way.

Take your time. I'm getting some things done.

Please, no creases on the sleeve.

Enjoy.

Oh, hey. What's going on?

Retirement party for Agent O'Revoir.

I'll have a piece.

Sure. What's your name?

Olympia.

No can do. It's one piece per person.

But I haven't had a piece.

Yes, you did. It says right here:

"Olympia".

How...

[sighs]

This isn't working.

What isn't?

This.

You know, two Olympias,

the lost gadget, the lost card,

you eating my cake...

Thought I could do it, but I can't, so...

Well, it was nice working with you.

You're leaving!

Me? Ha! No.

I was here first.

Take some cake for the road?

Oh, I'm not going anywhere.

Well, neither am I.

Guess there's only one option.

The loser gets a new name.

And my name is Coach O, no matter what!

You'll face a series of challenges.

The one who gets more points will be the winner.

First challenge:

Animal clap showdown!

[blows whistle] Winner!

[Coach O] The score is tied.

It all comes down to our most exciting,

most thrilling competition!

[Crowd cheering]

You need to figure out

the temperature of water in your buckets.

You can use any tool you want

except a thermometer.

[blows whistle] Go!

[Crowd cheers]

How am I supposed to do this?

Without a thermometer?

Hot Hands Harry!

Harry, come down here!

Come on!

Let me guess: you need to use my hands

to melt some chocolate for a fondue party?

Oddly specific... But no.

I need you to put your hands in that bucket.

What are you doing?

Well, water boils at degrees,

so as soon as the water starts to boil,

I'll know the temperature without using a thermometer.

Coach O, this water is boiling!

That means it's degrees!

[Coach O grunting]

Two hundred twelve degrees is...

Correct!

The winner and still Olympia is Olympia!

Yay! I get to keep my name!

Congratulations, Olympia.

Thanks, Olymp--

Sorry. What's your name now?

[Coach O] Ah. Right here.

The rules say it's gotta be... Odal.

Great. Odal is my middle name.

Pretty much everyone calls me Odal, anyway.

Bye!

Agents, I would like you to meet our newest recruit:

Agent Otis.

♪ [dramatic music]

[Ms. O] "Total Zeros."

Thanks for lending me your pen.

I tried not to use too much ink.

Otis!

Okay, so I was on break in the filing room

doing some re-filing in my favorite filing drawers,

and I found this.

I'm pausing so you will keep explaining.

Oh, this is the Odd Squad Most Odd list.

It ranks villains from the most odd to the least odd.

Also, it's from the year ,

so it's super historical.

Isn't it neat?

I'd rank my interest as "mild to very mild".

I wonder why they don't put these out anymore.

So, I guess you never heard the story of the Total Zeros.

No, never heard that story.

Well, it's a good thing I have this sofa and fireplace.

Have a seat, and I'll tell you a story

about the most feared villains in Odd Squad history.

So, Odd Squad used to put out a list

of the oddest villains every year.

It was the talk of the town.

Extra, extra! Read all about it!

The Most Odd list, hot off the presses!

[Ms. O] Some villains were happy with the rankings.

Mom, I'm twelfth most oddest villain!

[cackles]

Yeah, pretty solid! Put Dad on!

[Ms. O] Some were just happy to get the stick of gum

that came with the list.

Ah! Yes!

[Ms. O] But there was a brother-and-sister villain duo

who were not happy at all: the Total Zeros.

I don't see our names!

Keep turning!

Last page...

There we are.

Ranked ?!

Is that good?

No!

We're the last villains on the list...

which means we're the least odd!

This can't be right!

You know, sis...

Maybe this whole villain thing isn't working out.

It might be time for me to finally open up

that little flower shop on Main Street.

No.

Brother Zero, we are the oddest villains in town.

I mean, look at our outfits.

Yeah.

And our powers.

See that bench?

Minus... zero!

[cackling]

[Otis] Wait. Hold on.

Their power was to subtract zero?

Yes.

But when you subtract zero, it just stays the same.

Like, if you have these two comfy chairs

and you subtract zero from them...

you're still gonna have these two comfy chairs.

Right, that's why they were the least odd villains.

They went around subtracting zero from things,

so nothing changed.

Until...

♪ [dramatic music]

Ms. O, you're needed on a case.

Is it okay if we pick up this story some other time?

Sure. I got things to do.

Wow!

Three weeks later...

♪

Okay. Easy, easy...

There you two are.

Want to hear the rest of the story?

What story?

The Total Zeros story.

Remember, we started it a few weeks ago?

Oh, right!

I vaguely recall that.

I have a couple of minutes free,

and I thought it would be a good time.

Have a seat.

So, where were we?

Right, the Total Zeros' powers.

Sister Zero realized they needed a better power,

so she went to a night class to learn welding

and changed the minus signs on their gloves

to plus signs.

Hey, sis?

How do you feel about this as a name for my flower shop:

"The Flower Shop"?

I feel like it really says what it is.

No time for that, Brother Zero.

See this plus sign?

Plus is way more powerful than minus,

because now we have the power to add zero!

Let's go show Odd Squad who they're dealing with.

[alarm blaring]

[cackling]

We are the Total Zeros!

[both] Plus zero! Plus zero!

[cackles]

Stop the alarms!

It's just the Total Zeros.

"Just the Total Zeros"? Oh yeah?

Two juice boxes... plus zero!

Who are the worst villains now, Ms. O?

You. You're still the worst villains.

Your powers don't do anything.

Um...

Did you miss that neat part

where we just added zero?

When you add zero to a number, the number doesn't change,

so two juice boxes plus zero juice boxes

still equals two juice boxes.

But then, the most unexpected thing happened.

Ms. O, Santa has a problem.

Oh. Sorry, I have to go.

Is it okay if we pick up this story after the holidays?

Sure. Yep.

[sighs]

A month and a half later...

♪

Come on, Odd Squad. I've told you everything I know.

Come on, Mr. Lightning!

What were you doing on the night of the th?

I don't remember! I--

Okay, where were we?

The story?

The Total Zeros?

Oh. Right.

Ms. O, we're kind of busy.

I would love to hear the story.

You know, I believe that storytelling

is what binds us as a culture.

You just want us to stop interrogating you.

Maybe a little.

Anyway,

next year, when the villain rankings came out...

Last again?!

No!

[Ms. O] And that's when the idea came to her.

Sister Zero re-welded their gloves,

changing the plus sign to Xs for multiplication...

And finally, they had the power they wanted.

Times zero! Times zero!

[Mr. Lightning] Wait a second.

First of all, loving the story.

You know, it's all about that basic human desire

to make a difference.

What's your question?

Well, how did times zero

make stuff disappear?

I think I get it.

When you subtract zero, like three minus zero,

you're taking away nothing.

[Otis] And when you add zero, you're adding nothing.

But if you multiply a number by zero,

you get whatever that number is zero times.

Like here: this says three times zero,

and that means either three groups of zero -

see, nothing in these boxes:

zero, zero, and zero is zero

- or zero groups of three.

So any number times zero is...

Zero.

That visual aid really helped me to understand.

Thank you.

So now the Total Zeros had more power

than they ever dreamed of.

Three cars... times zero...

Is zero. [cackles]

[both cackle]

The next year was ,

but there were no villain rankings that year

because the Odd Squad printing press was out of ink.

In , the rankings came out again,

and the Total Zeros were ranked number one.

Extra, extra! This issue costs extra!

From zeros...

To heroes!

Hey, maybe now is a good time for us to quit

and open up that little flower shop.

You know, go out on a high note.

Brother... we're just getting warmed up.

[Ms. O] Sister Zero started

to make everything in her sights disappear:

trash cans, benches,

and clouds.

Especially clouds.

Might want to dial it back a bit with the clouds.

[Ms. O] But Sister Zero wouldn't stop.

She made whole streets and houses disappear.

And everything in their work area,

until nothing was left.

♪

♪

Gonna be honest, sis: this isn't working for me.

I don't want to live in this white void.

Now, is it about the color of the void or...?

Nope, nope. All voids.

Any color. I miss furniture.

Yeah, I think I went too far.

Maybe we have too much power.

[Brother Zero] I know who we can ask for help.

You want me to help you?

Please, I like being a villain,

but I want to be less villain-y.

I don't want to be evil at all.

I want to work in the floral industry.

Fine, since it'll make the world less odd...

I have an idea.

♪

Here. Try this on.

Okay.

Times... eight!

[Sister Zero cackles]

So her new power

was that she could multiply anything by eight?

Exactly.

She could take any number of something

and make there be eight times as many.

That's how Sister Zero became the villain Crazy Eights.

Whaaat? Crazy Eights?

I take Zumba class with her!

Anyway, after that,

I decided to stop putting out the Most Odd list.

It just caused too much trouble.

[whispering]

I gotta go!

What? What about the brother?

I'll tell you the rest of the story when I get a chance.

Whew. Wow. Catch you on the flipside!

Sit.

Right.

What were you doing on the night of the th?

What she said!

Many, many years later...

Oh, I saw Oona the other day!

Did she still have kangaroo legs?

I didn't notice.

There you two are.

Good to see you, Olympia and Otis.

Sorry it's taken me so long to get here.

Anyway, where was I?

Sister Zero became the villain Crazy Eights.

Oh, right.

And then Brother Zero did start that flower shop

he always dreamed about.

Here's him on his first day of work.

[Olympia] Oh, how nice.

The end.

I had a hunch that was how it would end.

But it's nice to know.
