[Lyla] Carnival for Luke

♪♪

[Luke] Wait...no, it can't be closing time.

Lyla, Louisa, and Liana aren't home yet.

[Lydia] Oh, honey.

They're late because they had a school trip

[Lydia] to a carnival today, remember?

Oh, yeah. I wish I could've gone too.

I love carnivals.

Not fair.

[Stu] [trills]

[Lyla/Liana/Louisa/Everett] [Cheering]

[Lyla] That was thebest carnival ever!

[trills]

Woo!

[trills excitedly]

I took pictures.

[Lyla/Liana/Louisa/Everett] [giggling]

Luke, look--

[Lyla] Everett nailed the Rolly Ball game.

That's how I won these!

[Liana] That's me playing the Claw Grabber.

I could play it forever--

[Luke] [sigh]

Hey Luke... Don't you wanna see more carnival pictures?

Maybe later.

What's the matter with Luke?

He's a little sad because his class

didn't have a trip to the carnival.

Aw, and I kept showing him pictures

of all the fun he didn't get to have.

We weren't even thinking about how he felt.

Maybe we can make a carnival and surprise Luke,

so he can play our favorite games and feel better!

[Louisa] I'm down! [Stu] [trills]

[Everett] Good idea! [Liana] He'll love that!

Can we set up here in the diner, Mom?

Oooo, yeah. I don't see why not.

Let's make homemade versions of our favorite games

so Luke can get to play!

Oh, I wanna make Bottle Toss!

I can use this picture to help me figure out the design.

[Louisa] I don't have any milk bottles though.

Maybe you can substitute some plastic bottles instead?

Good idea.

There are some empty bottles in the recycling bin.

[Liana] I'm gonna make the Claw Grabber.

Can I see the picture again?

[Liana] Hmm, let's see...

[Liana] I have to get a big box to hold all the prizes.

[Liana] Then make a grabber to lift the prizes out.

I can probably find a big enough box in the storage room.

What game should we make?

Are you kidding? We only had one favorite--

[Lyla] Rolly Ball! [Everett] Rolly Ball!

Here's a picture.

[trills]

So... we need three different sized bowls, a ball,

and a ramp to roll the ball on.

Ooo, I bet we can find a ramp in the storage room.

Found my box for the Claw Grabber game.

Now I just need to fill it with prizes.

You think Stu can help me?

[Lyla] Yeah. Just ask him. [Stu] [trills]

Hey Stu, please fill this box with prizes.

[trills affirmatively]

[trills]

Maybe you should have been more specific

about what "“prizes"” are?

Nah, I'm sure Stu knows what prizes to get.

Hey, you think we can use this cardboard for a ramp?

It's perfect! Now we just need three bowls and a ball.

How's it going?

I'm having a hard time making these bottles stand up

long enough to knock them down.

[bottles clatter]

Maybe you can fill them with something,

so they'll be heavy enough to stay upright.

Yeah, I can fill them with water. You're a genius, Lili!

Thanks.

What should I use as a claw grabber?

[water running]

How about that thingy Dad

uses to flip over eggplant on the grill?

Kitchen tongs? Yeah, good idea!

[clap]

Guess we're twingeniuses, huh?!

[Liana] [laughter]

[sneaker skid]

[metallic tong clicking]

These'll definitely work!

I'll find something to tie it to...

like some string or... shoelaces!

I know exactly where to find those.

[squeak]

Three different sized plastic bowls we can roll the ball into.

Now we just need a ball.

I have some tennis balls in my room. C'mon.

[humming]

[Lyla] [gasp] [Everett] [whispering] Luke!

[Luke] [humming "Carrot Cake Dance"]

Hey Luke, what's up?

Getting a juice box. What're you doing?

[Lyla] Nothing! [Everett] Just walkin'!

[whispering] Phew! That was a close one.

[door closing]

[Lyla] Yeah, let's get a ball and clear out before he comes back!

[wooden chest squeaks]

[Lyla] Got '‘em!

I'll take one for Louisa, too.

[door opens]

[gasp]

Why're y'all standing there all stiff?

Phew! We thought you were Luke.

Oh. I just came to borrow some of his shoelaces.

[Luke] I got an apple juice, Mom!

[gasp] He's coming!

[dramatic music]

[juice slurping]

What's going on?

[in unison] Nothing!

[in unison] [humming and whistling]

Why are you walking backwards?

Why?

Um... because... uh...

We... uh... just decided it's backwards walking day.

[Lyla] [awkward laughter]

Bye... bye, Luke!

[juice slurping]

[Lyla]We have everything we need

to make the BEST. CARNIVAL. EVER!

[trills]

Perfect timing, Stu.

[trills]

[trills]

A fly swatter?

[Lyla] [laughs]

[trills]

[trills]

A spatula?

[Lyla] [laughs]

[trills]

Dad's slipper?!

Ummm....

You said fill the box with prizes.

I guess those are prizes to Stu.

[trills]

Yeah... Thank you, Stu. These are... great.

[trills]

[plastic clacking as the bowls are put down]

[chair slide]

[Everett] [laugh]

♪♪

[crunchy cardboard cutting]

♪♪

[trills]

[tape peeling]

♪♪

[Liana] Wooo! [laughter]

♪♪

All done!

Alright!

[Louisa] Let's call Luke down now!

Wait... I think we'd better test the games first.

Make sure they work.

Hey Ev, test my game.

Stand at the blue line.

Now, throw the ball at all the bottles

and try to knock them down.

Oh, this is gonna be easy.

I happen to have superior aiming skills.

[throwing effort]

No way! What happened to my aim?

If the throw line is too far

away for you with your superior skills

it'll be way too far away for Luke. I'll move the line closer.

Me next!

Let's test the Claw-Grabber.

♪♪

How does it work?

You look in the little window.

Then using the stick, drop the tongs

into the box and grab a prize.

[metallic clicking]

I can't grab anything '‘cause the tongs won't close.

Ohhhh... right. My bad.

When I played it at the carnival,

I pressed a button to make the claws open and close.

I need something like THAT!

Before we figure that out, let's try the Rolly Ball.

♪♪

Roll the ball up the ramp and try to get it

into one of the bowls on the table.

The smaller the bowl, the more points you get.

Got it.

♪♪

[gasp]

[metal crashing]

[Lyla] [gasp]

[Lyla] Oops. [Liana] Uh-oh.

[groan] It's a good thing we're testing these games.

Yeah, they can all use improvements

before we surprise Luke.

And we can use a new ramp.

[plastic bottles crashing]

Now I'm tooclose to the bottles.

This would be too easyfor Luke and that's no fun.

Hmm...What can I use as a grabber, Stu?

[gasp] Stu! Would youlike to be the grabber?

[trills]

[Lyla] Hmm...

How about an ironing board?

It looks sturdy enough to be a ramp.

Yeah, it definitely won't collapse when we roll the ball on it.

Let's go test it out to be sure.

[water bottles clattering]

[Louisa] Yes! Not too easy and not too hard. Just right for Luke.

Awesome!

[gasp] Great, Stu! Now open your arms and close them around a prize.

[trills] Ta-Da!

[struggling effort]

[trills]

Rolly Ball test two. Here goes!

[Lyla] Woohoo! Yeah! [Everett] Goal!

Everything works! Time to get Luke.

[door opens]

Why're you walking backwards?

'‘Cause it's Backward Walking Day.

Can I open my eyes now?

On the count of three - one, two, three, open!

[in unison] Surprise!

Wow!

Welcome to your very own carnival!

What do you think? Do you like it?

I love it! Thank you! Thank you!

[sigh]

[Luke] Yay! [Everett] Alright! [Lyla] Woohoo!

[Liana] Yeah, Luke! [Lyla] You got this, Luke!

[bottles clattering]

[Luke] Woo!

[Everett] Luke! Luke! Luke! [Lyla] That was awesome! [Louisa] Alright!

And now, for the last game.

[trills]

Uhhh... I won... a slipper?

This is the best carnival EVER!

Let's play them again!

[in unison] [celebratory cheering]

It's magnetic tile time!

[trills]

You can use the same set of tiles, move them around,

and make something totally different.

[Lyla] Check it out: it's our neighborhood! [Stu] [trills]

Here's our street and our apartment building.

Plus, I added a rocket landing pad on top because we totally need one.

[trills]

Now, let's take this apart, and then we can use

some of these SAME pieces to make something NEW.

How about we make... a car!

Stu, can you use some of these tiles to make a car?

[trills excitedly]

[trills]

[Lyla] [gasp] Love it!

Beep Beep!

[trill trill]

Okay, next, let's re-use these and make... a castle!

Go, Stu, go!

[trills]

[trills]

Wow!

Uhhh, Stu?

Stuuuu...

[trills]

[giggles]

Now, Stu, my brilliant building buddy.

Here's one last challenge!

[whispering]

[trills]

[trills]

[Lyla] [laughter]

[tiles clacking together]

[Stu] [trills]

[tiles clacking together]

Stu!

[trills]

You're... an artist.

[trills]

[Louisa] Rap Report!

Okay, put this here.

[Louisa] Got these.

Alright. Ready, Stu?

[trills affirmatively]

Ever since she was years old,

Dr. Jemison knew she wanted to be a scientist.

Outta this world, right?!

[trills]

But seriously!

She became the first Black woman to travel to space!

She was really out of this world!

[Stu] [trills]

And that's why my personal hero is uh... Dr. Mae Jemison!

[trills]

[Stu] [clapping]

Well, thank you Stu. I'm so glad you like it.

[clapping speeds up]

Okay...Stu. You can stop clapping now.

[clapping stops]

Maybe I should practice in front of more people, just to make sure I'm ready.

[trills affirmatively]

[trills]

[glass cup plinking]

Lyla!

Hey, check this out!

Each glass sounds different

because of how much water is in it.

[glass tink]

This glass sounds the highest

because it's empty.

[lower pitch tink]

And this glass sounds the lowest

because it's full of water.

Cool! But, I need your--

The middle glasses sound in between the high and the low--

Lyla! I need your help with something!

Yours too, Luke!

You do?

What's up?

I'm giving a presentation on Mae Jemison.

The astronaut?

Yep, in front of the whole school tomorrow.

Ooooh, with everybody watching?

Uh huh.

I've been practicing with Stu, but,

I want to see what it'd feel like onstage,

in front of a bigger audience.

I need your help.

Yeah!

I'm in!

Thanks! You three sit on the couch.

I'll go get my presentation.

But, don't you want to see what it feels like onstage,

in front of a realaudience?

Yeah...

Well, we could just sit on the couch.

Orwe could do it the fun way!

The "“fun way"”? Hmm...

Uh-oh, here we go...

♪♪

[wooden table scraping]

Perfect!

♪♪

[Stu] [startled trill] [Lyla] Ahh!

Uh, my personal hero is... Mae...

Mae Jem... Jemison, wait... Dr. Jemison...

was an astrospace. I mean space-tro-nut.

I mean astronaut!

Uhh... Mae went to space, and she was an astronaut, who went to space.

And, and, when Mae went to space --

Ugh! What's going on? I keep messing it up!

Thanks Stu, but you can turn off the spotlight.

[trills]

What's the matter, Louisa?

With the spotlight on me and you all watching,

I get all shaky and nervous and forget what to say!

I had no problems when just Stu was watching.

[trills]

[Luke] That's '‘cause Stu likes everything.

[trills]

[clapping]

[trills]

If I can't perform in front of you three,

then how am I going to give my speech

in front of the whole school!?

Ugh! I never get nervous like this.

Not even when I rap!

That's true, MC Lou.

You can rap in front of the whole diner, no problem!

How come?

I dunno. Rapping's just... different! It's easier.

Too bad you can't rap your speech.

Wait, can you?!

Rapping's kinda like talking in front of a bunch of people, right?

Well, yeah, it kinda is!

It's a way to speak in public - but with a b*at!

Hmm... Maybe it could work?

[window squeaking]

[cloth wiping]

[metal cutlery clinking]

[Louisa] [beatboxing]

Endeavour. [sigh]

Hey, that was sounding pretty good!

Thanks, but it just feels like something is missing.

The middle and the end?

No...

It's just that... this is going to be MC Lou's

debut rapping in front of a big audience.

I don't wanna embarrass myself doing

the worst rap of all time!

That would not be good.

Hmm...What would help improve your rap?

[metallic spoon tapping]

Luke, can you cut that out? I'm trying to think.

No, wait! Keep it up, Luke.

Yeah...that's it! A b*at! A rap is better with a b*at!

Ooooh!

[Luke] Yeah! [Lyla] Yeah!

Kinda like what you're doin' Luke,

but a little more like this--

[funky drum rhythm]

A b*at that makes ya wanna move!

♪♪

[trills excitedly]

Oh yah-yah! Oh yah-yah!

I'm movin'. I'm boppin'. I'm movin'. I'm boppin'!

[trills to the b*at]

♪♪

But I can't make a b*at and rap at the same time...

Maybe I can beatbox for you.

[deep inhale]

[beatboxes poorly]

Ewww, you're spitting on me!

Oops. Sorry, Luke!

Nice try, Lyla, but the b*at's

got to stay the same and keep going over and over.

Like a loop!

Yeah! A loop is something you do over and over.

Exactly! All I'd need for my rap is a good b*at in a loop.

Okay, so, let's work a hot b*at that's a loop.

Hand me that spoon, Luke.

[glass plinking to an unsteady b*at]

That's pretty good, but

the b*at has to be the same exact pattern over and over again.

Making a looping b*at is hard work!

Wait... Stu's the king of loops.

Yeah, Stu can repeat things over

and over and over and over and over, and over, forever.

[Lyla] Until you say stop.

Let's try it! You game, Stu?

[Yeah!]

[in unison] [laughter]

Tap the pot just like this, Stu.

One-two-three-four. One-two-three-four and repeat it until I say stop.

Hit it, Stu!

[rhythmic tapping]

That's it, Stu.

[trills]

Hey! I like that sound.

Stu, please jump every second time you hit the pot.

[trills affirmatively]

Stop!

Let's try it. One- two-three-four. One- two-three-four.

I dig it!

It's movin'.

[trills]

But it's not quite right yet.

It needs something else. Something fun.

Something... unexpected!

[wet squirting sound]

Like that!

Okay, Stu, you can stop. What was that sound?

What sound?

It sounded like, '‘SQOOSH-SQOOSH!'

[wet squirting sound]

[mouth full] Wuh whup cweam!

[Lyla] [laugh] He said, his whipped cream!

Yeah, that's it, the whipped cream!

It kinda sounds like a rocket blast off!

Which is perfectfor a rap about an astronaut!

Luke, can you do it again in a loop, right after Stu makes his sound?

Mm-hm!

Okay. Hit it, Stu.

[rhythmic tapping with squirting sound in time]

Okay, Stu, please stop. Boom, done.

It's almost perfect, but it just needs one more thing.

How do you know?

I hear it in my head.

It just needs a little-- 'plink, plink' sound...

something with a higher pitch.

Plink, plink? Higher pitch?

That kinda sounds like-- [gasp] Come with me!

♪♪

[trills]

[plink plink]

Lyla! That's it, the '‘plink, plink' sound!

Remind me how your water glasses work again.

The empty one has the highest sound.

The fullest one has the lowest sound.

Play the two in between.

[plink plonk]

Again...

[plink plonk]

When I point to you, play the glasses in this order:

One-four-three-two,

one-four-three-two over and over again.

In a loop!

You got it!

Okay, I'll point to Stu, who will do the first loop.

Then, when I point to Luke,

he'll squirt the whipped cream-

over and over in a second loop.

And when I point to you, Lyla,

you play the glasses over and over again in a third loop!

Get it?

[{in unison] Got it! [Stu] [trills]

Good! Ready? Here we go!

[rhythmic tapping]

[wet squirting sound]

[pitched glass plinking]

Yes! Keep going! All right!
