02x12 - Martha in the Hold / Get Along, Little Dogies!
Posted: 10/10/22 08:47
MAN:
* Martha was an average dog
* She went... and... and...
(barking, growls)
* When she ate
some alphabet soup *
* Then what happened
was bizarre... *
On the way to Martha's stomach,
the letters lost their way.
They traveled to her brain,
and now...
* She's got a lot to say
* Now she speaks...
How now, brown cow?
* Martha speaks
* Yeah, she speaks
and speaks and speaks *
* And speaks and speaks...
What's a caboose?
When are we eating again?
* Martha speaks...
Hey, Joe, what do you know?
My name's not Joe.
* She's not always right, but
still that Martha speaks... *
Hi, there.
* She's got the voice,
she's ready to shout *
* Martha will tell you
what it's all about *
* Sometimes wrong,
but seldom in doubt *
* Martha will tell you
what it's all about *
* That dog's unique...
Testing, one, two.
* Hear her speak
* Martha speaks and speaks
and speaks and speaks and... *
* Communicates, enumerates,
elucidates, exaggerates *
* Indicates and explicates
* Bloviates and overstates
and... *
(panting)
* Hyperventilates!
* Martha-- to reiterate--
Martha speaks. *
Hello.
We're about to depart
on a real adventure.
You'll be hearing travel words
like "arrive" and "cargo,"
"passengers" and "turbulence."
(shudders)
And fun vacation words like
"scenery," "sightseeing"
and "cattle drive."
(flight attendant
clears throat)
What?
Oh, right.
This isn't my seat.
Where do I sit?
Stay tuned and find out.
(sniffs)
Ah, where'd
this one come from?
Let's see.
The last time we used
this suitcase was...
our trip to Hawaii last summer.
(sniffs)
And this one?
Mariella used that
when she took her
trip to Mexico
to see Aunt Vonda.
And that one?
Grandma and Granddad
borrowed that one
for their trip
to England.
(sniffs)
I think I like
England the best.
Mmm, but Mexico's
pretty good, too.
That it is.
Ah, Hawaii.
I bet there's so much
to do there.
Or England...
Or Mexico...
I sure wish I could
travel with you guys.
So do we, old girl.
So do we.
We're going camping
this summer.
What about you guys?
(sighs)
Montana,
dude ranch.
(sighs)
Grandma's taking me
to Washington, D.C.,
to see
the museums.
(sighs)
Aspen... again.
Ow.
(sighing):
If only I could travel.
Why can't you?
She can.
Really?
I thought
they didn't let dogs
on planes.
They do.
Skits is going to Montana
with us.
He's going with you, yes,
but he's not going with you.
(frustrated sigh)
I don't get it.
Two words...
Well?
I can't say them.
Cargo hold.
(shudders)
Cargo hold?
What's that?
That.
Huh?
You know what
cargo is, right?
Sure. Cargo's
all the stuff
that a plane
or a ship carries.
Like the crates and the
boxes and the suitcases?
Ow.
Uh-huh, and the cargo hold
is a space
in the bottom of the plane
where they carry all the cargo.
And that's where
the dogs go.
In a suitcase?
No! In a cage.
In a cage.
In the dark.
In the bottom of a plane.
(dogs whimpering)
Into the hold
with you.
(shuddering in fear)
(Martha grunts as cage
hits each stair)
(dogs barking, yipping)
TRUMAN:
It can't be that bad.
How do you know?
Have you ever been
in a cargo hold?
No, have you?
Uh...
No.
I'll go.
Sounds cool.
They don't let people
ride in the cargo hold.
No wonder they're
losing customers.
How do you know what it's
like until you try it?
How do you know what a volcano's
like until you jump into it?
She's got a point.
That ought
to do it.
DAD:
I'll drop off Jake
in about an hour, Mom.
Where is Jake?
Did we pack him?
(giggles)
Never mind.
HELEN:
And that's the
Montana prairie.
It's so huge,
you can just run and run
and run as much as you want.
Oh, and here's a river
where you can swim.
We're going there
after the dude ranch.
It's supposed
to be really fun.
Oh, Martha, remind me to tell
you about the dog-sitter.
Lucy canceló--
she had to cancel,
so they're sending over
a new one tomorrow,
Mr. McGrump or...
I forget, but I'll tell you
en un minuto.
Mariella, remember the chewie.
(sighs)
MARTHA:
Hey, guys!
(all grunt)
You know, I've been moaning
about not going on the trip
to Montana, but I think
I'm actually going to like it
so much better staying here.
The whole house all to myself,
and you guys,
and the old fire hydrant.
(sniffs)
Ah, it smells...
(sighing):
the same as always.
Say, have any of you ever gone
on a plane flight before?
(yips)
(barking)
You all have?
In the cargo hold?
(yips)
(barking)
What was it like?
(all grunt "I don't know")
What do you mean
("I don't know" grunt)?
How could you
not remember?
Were you asleep?
You were asleep?
How did you ever sleep
through something so scary?
MARTHA:
Why didn't you tell me
there's a pill dogs take
so they can sleep
through the whole flight?
(laughs)
This is going
to be a cinch.
I'm so glad you
decided to come, Martha.
It's great you
changed your mind.
Wow!
So this is the
airport terminal.
HELEN:
Yeah. Lots of passengers, huh?
MARTHA:
Passengers? Where?
Passengers are what they call
the people traveling
on a plane or in a train
or a boat or a car
or however they're traveling.
Oh. Am I a passenger, too?
Well, I think only people
are called passengers.
Figures.
(purring)
I'm sorry,
what did you say?
(meows)
Oh, um, yeah, we're on
the flight to Montana, too.
(meows)
Well, of course
I'm taking a pill.
Aren't you?
You aren't?
(taunting meow)
(gasps)
I am not a scaredy-dog!
DAD:
In you go.
Okay, Martha.
(laughs)
You know what?
I'm not going to take a pill.
FAMILY:
What?
But why not?
If that cat's not taking one,
I'm certainly not.
It'll be exciting to find out
what the cargo hold is like.
Oh boy, I'll be the first dog
I know to stay awake for it.
But it might be scary, with the
plane taking off and landing,
and then sometimes
there's turbulence.
Turbulence?
Yeah, turbulence is when
the wind outside blows
and makes the plane
shake around.
The plane shakes?
When there's turbulence it does.
Well, turbulence sounds
like fun.
You're sure about this?
Uh-huh.
Wait until that cat sees me
wide awake with her
in the cargo hold, huh, Skits?
Wait a minute,
why isn't that cat being
put on the conveyor belt?
Sometimes they let
small animals like cats
ride along with
the passengers.
Cats!
I should've known.
Oh, Martha, why didn't
you take that pill?
Okay, what's going on?
Wait, Helen told me about this.
First thing that
happens is the plane
moves down the runway.
It's called
taxiing.
Okay, it's just taxiing.
Then what happens?
The plane
takes off.
Wow.
Okay, maybe I should
just try to sleep.
I can just imagine what it's
like for that cat right now.
More cream?
Ugh, okay, you're not going
to fall asleep that way.
(loud clank)
What's that?
(gasps)
I can't wait to tell Truman
I was right.
It is scary in here.
Go to sleep, go to sleep,
go to sleep.
(dog barks)
Wait a minute, that's a...
(barks)
(barking)
It is. It's another dog.
(loudly):
Are you okay?
(dog barks rapidly)
I'm sorry, you've got
to calm down.
I can't understand you.
You know what, just hold on and
I'll try and come and find you.
Yes, yes, yes...
(sighs)
Yes!
Don't worry, I'm coming.
Oh, I see, a suitcase fell and
broke the lock on your door.
Ah, you spit out your pill.
Bet you won't do that again.
(barking)
You don't have to be so scared.
Soon we'll arrive
at the airport in Montana
and you'll be just fine.
(barking)
Riding in the cargo hold
is simple.
You just depart,
fly for a little bit,
and then you arrive
where you're going.
(loud crash)
(dog barks in fright)
Wait a minute,
I know what this is.
(dogs barking)
It's okay, everybody.
Calm down, this is just
some turbulence.
It's when the wind
blows the plane a little.
Just like a bumpy road, right?
Nothing to be
afraid of here.
It'll stop in a...
(laughs)
See? Nothing to be afraid of.
Just a little turbulence.
You can all go
back to sleep.
(dogs yawn)
Now let's get you
back in your cage.
Would you like that?
(muffled):
Oh, hi, guys.
That turbulence made
a little mess
but don't worry,
I fixed it for you.
Huh?
Huh?
So you weren't
scared at all?
No, not really.
And it's sure given me a lot
to tell the g*ng
at the fire hydrant.
(cat screeches)
(gasps)
Is that...
It freaked out as soon
as the plane took off.
It broke out
of its cage.
The crew was
chasing it around
the whole flight.
(screeching)
You'd never catch
a dog doing that.
Today we're going to talk
about arrive and depart.
Arrive means when someone
or something gets someplace.
Like when I arrive home.
Hello! The dog is back!
It's great when food arrives.
But the best kind of arrival is
when the family arrives home.
(barks)
Hello, Skits.
The opposite of arrive
is depart.
Depart just means leave.
You can depart the house.
Sometimes you depart in a car.
Airplanes arrive and depart
all day long.
You know, it was fun doing
a show about flying.
But believe me, dogs do not
like riding in the cargo hold.
Time to depart.
Bye!
(a distant hawk screeches)
This looks bad, Slim.
Ola!
Hi!
Howdy, cowboy!
Hammina wha...
What? What'd I say?
DAD:
I guess I forgot to mention
in my message
that Martha speaks.
Ain't fittin'.
MARTHA:
Why are we going
to a ranch anyway?
I thought on vacation
people stayed in hotels.
Not on this
vacation.
We're going on
a cattle drive.
Driving cows?
Western cows must be really
talented and tiny.
The cows on CK's farm can't even
fit into a car,
much less drive one.
No.
On a cattle drive,
the cows don't drive you,
you drive them.
Really?
ALL:
* One hundred bottles of milk
on the wall *
* One hundred bottles of milk
* Take one down,
pass it around *
* bottles of milk
on the wall. *
(cows moo)
Oh, I think we need
a bigger bus.
HELEN (laughing):
No, no, no.
Cattle drives don't
have anything to do
with cars or buses.
They don't?
No.
In a cattle drive,
people walk cows along a trail
from one ranch to another.
Cow walking?
That's your idea of a vacation?
Pretty neat, huh?
The great outdoors!
(quietly):
No wonder Jakey stayed at home
with Grandma Lucille.
COOKIE:
On a vacation,
you take off of work
and relax, don't you?
Maybe go to the
mountains to ski,
or to the beach for a swim.
Uh-huh.
Well, this ain't
that kind of vacation.
It's a cattle drive.
Ain't no relaxin'
or swimmin'.
It's work--
hard work--
and don't you
forget it!
(sarcastically):
"Ooohh, I want a vacation."
Looks like we got off on
the wrong foot with Cookie.
I didn't stand
on his feet!
Either of them!
(laughs)
Es una expresión.
When you say you get off on
the wrong foot with someone,
it means you made a bad
first impression.
Oh. I hope we get on
the right foot soon.
Me, too.
(clanging)
Come and get it.
What's that?
It's the chuck wagon.
It's where cowboys keep
their food on cattle drives.
Really?
These vittles ain't fit
for a dog.
Au contraire, mon frère!
Maybe I was wrong about you.
ALL:
Ugh!
Mmm!
We'll camp here.
Get some shuteye,
because we'll depart mighty
early in the morning.
(grunts)
Where are we
supposed to sleep?
You're lookin' at it.
Outdoors?
What's the matter,
little doggie?
Is that ground too hard?
Maybe you'd like
better lodging?
Lodging?
Lodging means a place you stay
when you're away from home.
Oh, well, yes.
Better lodging
would be great.
Nothing fancy--
maybe just a
comfy chair.
Well, there ain't
no lodging!
This ain't that
kind of vacation.
This is a cattle drive.
On a cattle drive, cowboys camp
outdoors on the ground.
Got it?
ALL:
Yes, sir.
(dismissively):
City folk.
(gulps hard)
I think I stepped on
his other wrong foot.
(horses neigh, cows moo)
(Skits barks)
(Martha squeals happily)
(mooing)
(Martha pants)
Martha? Would you like
to ride up here with me?
Would I?!
Wow, you can really
see far up here.
Makes you feel like a
real cowboy, doesn't it?
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Get along
little dogies *
Hey! What's the idea?
Get along, dogie?
You invited me up here.
You're not a dogie,
you're a doggie.
A dogie is a
motherless cow.
That's not
a very nice song.
First the baby cow
loses its mother
and then you tell
it to get lost.
The words ought to be
more inviting.
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Have a seat, little dogies
* I know your mama
don't want you to roam *
(loud mooing)
Cows like it.
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Rest your feet little dogies
Whoa! Now look
what you've done!
This is a cattle drive!
Cows can't sit!
They're supposed to move
along the trail!
Oh. Sorry.
It was just a song.
When I said, "Have a seat,"
I didn't really mean it,
did I, Skits?
(barks)
So let's move 'em out!
(moos loudly)
(laughs nervously)
While the cows are
having a seat,
why don't we do
some sightseeing?
Oh, that's a
great idea.
We can tour around on our horses
and look at the scenery.
Sightseeing?
Yeah, sightseeing.
When you go sightseeing,
it means you visit
all the fun things
in the place
you're vacationing.
Oh, don't that sound nice?
We could tour around and take
pictures, couldn't we?
ALL:
Uh-huh.
'Cept we're not doing
no sightseeing!
This ain't that kind
of vacation.
This is a cattle drive,
and there's no taking
purdy pictures of the scenery.
(flashbulb pops)
Ah!
Sorry.
Now I'm on
the wrong foot.
Me, too.
Me, too.
(sighing):
Welcome to my world.
We'll have to break camp
extra early tomorrow
on account of the
cows sitting today.
(mooing)
HELEN:
Cookie?
Something's wrong
with the cows.
There's wolves out there.
The cows can smell them.
They make the cows jumpy.
(wolf howls loudly)
Hey! Kinfolk!
(howls)
Stampede!
Stampede?
What's a stampede?
Una estampida, a stampede,
is when a bunch of animals
or even people run away
because they're scared.
COOKIE:
We got to stop those cows!
You stay here!
Yee-haw!
(Skits and Martha bark)
Yee-haw!
Stop yellin'
"yee-haw!"
Why? I thought that's
what cowboys did.
Yeah, when we want
the cows to move.
We want 'em to stay put.
Sorry.
MARTHA:
Hooray!
You did it!
(laughs nervously)
At least we covered
some extra distance.
You are lodging
in the wagon tonight.
In the wagon? Why?
What did I do?
Howled like a wolf around a cow,
that's what.
I won't talk in wolf ever again,
I promise.
Shouldn't be
talking at all!
It ain't fittin'.
COOKIE:
Soon as we eat breakfast,
we'll break camp.
(gasps)
Martha!
You ate all the food
in the chuck wagon!
I did not!
There are still some
cans of beans left.
(growls questioningly)
I couldn't figure out how
to work the can opener.
Why can't I walk
with the cows?
Because I don't want you
to make them stampede again.
I won't, Helen, I promise.
I've learned my lesson.
(gasps)
What's that?
HELEN:
A prairie dog.
(laughing):
That's no dog.
That's some kind of a squirrel.
Skits!
Squirrel!
Martha!
(barking)
You're sure Martha
will be all right?
I can't stand that she has
to camp off by herself.
MOM:
Cookie thinks it's
best for the cows, honey.
You're the worst cattle
dog I've ever seen.
I know.
You won't hear another
word out of me.
Not a peep.
(soft rumble)
(Skits whines)
I know, Skits,
I hear it, too.
Sounds like a thunderstorm.
(thunderclap)
Another stampede!
It's not my fault this time.
(thunderclap)
(horses whinny)
Oh, no!
The lightning spooked
the horses, too!
Those cows are going to run
right over the cliff.
Cliff?
!
Woof?
What cliff?
There's a cliff up ahead.
The cows won't see it--
they're blind with fear.
They'll go right over.
Skits, help me dig
up this stake.
(woofs a question)
I think I know a way
we can stop those cows.
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Have a seat, little dogies
* I know your mama
don't want you to roam *
Look!
The cows are
slowing down.
Everybody! Sing!
ALL:
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Have a seat, little dogies
* I know your mama
don't want you to roam *
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Rest your feet little dogies
* You know you should make
yourself feel right at home. *
(mooing)
(cheering)
COOKIE:
Martha, I was wrong about you.
You're the best cattle dog
this drive has ever seen.
Aw.
Now, what are the words
to that song again?
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Have a seat, little dogies
ALL:
* You know you should make
yourself feel right at home. *
I've put together
a slideshow
of all the beautiful scenery
we saw on our vacation.
Here's some mountain scenery.
And some river scenery.
And some wildlife scenery.
And here's a picture
of some garbage scenery.
HELEN:
Martha!
Garbage is
not scenery.
Scenery means stuff you see
outdoors when you look around,
like plants and
trees and rocks.
Well, I looked around
and I saw some garbage.
And I thought
it was scenic.
Now may we continue
with the slideshow
of scenery
from our tour?
Mm-hmm.
Ewwwww!
Ah, mystery rotting
thing scenery.
My favorite!
Oh, my assistant is
not feeling well.
I'll have to show you the rest
of my pictures another time.
(Skits barks)
Did you have a fun trip
through today's vocabulary?
Let's see some of
those words again.
On a vacation, you take
off of work and relax.
Scenery means stuff you see
outdoors when you look around,
like plants and
trees and rocks.
Lodging means a place you stay
when you're away from home.
Next vacation I'm staying
in the back yard.
Mm-hmm.
To dig up some more fun words
and games, visit pbskids.org
* Who's that dog? *
* Who's
that dog? *
* Dog, d-d-dog, d-dog. *
That dog is Cameo.
Come on, Cam.
My name is Mark.
Cameo is an agility dog.
An agility course is made
for training.
Cameo is good at agility
because she's very, very, very,
very, very intelligent.
I think I should show you
how good she is.
Let's have some fun.
*
At Canine University, my mom
helps people train their dogs.
I suggest that you go there.
(laughs)
This sequence
is jump, tip it.
Okay.
Jump!
Tip it!
She is very, very, very,
very, very, very, very,
very, very, very wonderful.
* She's that dog... *
* Dog, d-d-dog, d-dog. *
* Martha was an average dog
* She went... and... and...
(barking, growls)
* When she ate
some alphabet soup *

was bizarre... *
On the way to Martha's stomach,

and now...

* Now she speaks...
How now, brown cow?

Hey, Joe, what do you know?
My name's not Joe.

still that Martha speaks... *
Hi, there.

she's ready to shout *

Hello.
We're about to depart
on a real adventure.
You'll be hearing travel words
like "arrive" and "cargo,"
"passengers" and "turbulence."
(shudders)
And fun vacation words like
"scenery," "sightseeing"
and "cattle drive."
(flight attendant
clears throat)
What?
Oh, right.
This isn't my seat.
Where do I sit?
Stay tuned and find out.
(sniffs)
Ah, where'd
this one come from?
Let's see.
The last time we used
this suitcase was...
our trip to Hawaii last summer.
(sniffs)
And this one?
Mariella used that
when she took her
trip to Mexico
to see Aunt Vonda.
And that one?
Grandma and Granddad
borrowed that one
for their trip
to England.
(sniffs)
I think I like
England the best.
Mmm, but Mexico's
pretty good, too.
That it is.
Ah, Hawaii.
I bet there's so much
to do there.
Or England...
Or Mexico...
I sure wish I could
travel with you guys.
So do we, old girl.
So do we.
We're going camping
this summer.
What about you guys?
(sighs)
Montana,
dude ranch.
(sighs)
Grandma's taking me
to Washington, D.C.,
to see
the museums.
(sighs)
Aspen... again.
Ow.
(sighing):
If only I could travel.
Why can't you?
She can.
Really?
I thought
they didn't let dogs
on planes.
They do.
Skits is going to Montana
with us.
He's going with you, yes,
but he's not going with you.
(frustrated sigh)
I don't get it.
Two words...
Well?
I can't say them.
Cargo hold.
(shudders)
Cargo hold?
What's that?
That.
Huh?
You know what
cargo is, right?
Sure. Cargo's
all the stuff
that a plane
or a ship carries.
Like the crates and the
boxes and the suitcases?
Ow.
Uh-huh, and the cargo hold
is a space
in the bottom of the plane
where they carry all the cargo.
And that's where
the dogs go.
In a suitcase?
No! In a cage.
In a cage.
In the dark.
In the bottom of a plane.
(dogs whimpering)
Into the hold
with you.
(shuddering in fear)
(Martha grunts as cage
hits each stair)
(dogs barking, yipping)
TRUMAN:
It can't be that bad.
How do you know?
Have you ever been
in a cargo hold?
No, have you?
Uh...
No.
I'll go.
Sounds cool.
They don't let people
ride in the cargo hold.
No wonder they're
losing customers.
How do you know what it's
like until you try it?
How do you know what a volcano's
like until you jump into it?
She's got a point.
That ought
to do it.
DAD:
I'll drop off Jake
in about an hour, Mom.
Where is Jake?
Did we pack him?
(giggles)
Never mind.
HELEN:
And that's the
Montana prairie.
It's so huge,
you can just run and run
and run as much as you want.
Oh, and here's a river
where you can swim.
We're going there
after the dude ranch.
It's supposed
to be really fun.
Oh, Martha, remind me to tell
you about the dog-sitter.
Lucy canceló--
she had to cancel,
so they're sending over
a new one tomorrow,
Mr. McGrump or...
I forget, but I'll tell you
en un minuto.
Mariella, remember the chewie.
(sighs)
MARTHA:
Hey, guys!
(all grunt)
You know, I've been moaning
about not going on the trip
to Montana, but I think
I'm actually going to like it
so much better staying here.
The whole house all to myself,
and you guys,
and the old fire hydrant.
(sniffs)
Ah, it smells...
(sighing):
the same as always.
Say, have any of you ever gone
on a plane flight before?
(yips)
(barking)
You all have?
In the cargo hold?
(yips)
(barking)
What was it like?
(all grunt "I don't know")
What do you mean
("I don't know" grunt)?
How could you
not remember?
Were you asleep?
You were asleep?
How did you ever sleep
through something so scary?
MARTHA:
Why didn't you tell me
there's a pill dogs take
so they can sleep
through the whole flight?
(laughs)
This is going
to be a cinch.
I'm so glad you
decided to come, Martha.
It's great you
changed your mind.
Wow!
So this is the
airport terminal.
HELEN:
Yeah. Lots of passengers, huh?
MARTHA:
Passengers? Where?
Passengers are what they call
the people traveling
on a plane or in a train
or a boat or a car
or however they're traveling.
Oh. Am I a passenger, too?
Well, I think only people
are called passengers.
Figures.
(purring)
I'm sorry,
what did you say?
(meows)
Oh, um, yeah, we're on
the flight to Montana, too.
(meows)
Well, of course
I'm taking a pill.
Aren't you?
You aren't?
(taunting meow)
(gasps)
I am not a scaredy-dog!
DAD:
In you go.
Okay, Martha.
(laughs)
You know what?
I'm not going to take a pill.
FAMILY:
What?
But why not?
If that cat's not taking one,
I'm certainly not.
It'll be exciting to find out
what the cargo hold is like.
Oh boy, I'll be the first dog
I know to stay awake for it.
But it might be scary, with the
plane taking off and landing,
and then sometimes
there's turbulence.
Turbulence?
Yeah, turbulence is when
the wind outside blows
and makes the plane
shake around.
The plane shakes?
When there's turbulence it does.
Well, turbulence sounds
like fun.
You're sure about this?
Uh-huh.
Wait until that cat sees me
wide awake with her
in the cargo hold, huh, Skits?
Wait a minute,
why isn't that cat being
put on the conveyor belt?
Sometimes they let
small animals like cats
ride along with
the passengers.
Cats!
I should've known.
Oh, Martha, why didn't
you take that pill?
Okay, what's going on?
Wait, Helen told me about this.
First thing that
happens is the plane
moves down the runway.
It's called
taxiing.
Okay, it's just taxiing.
Then what happens?
The plane
takes off.
Wow.
Okay, maybe I should
just try to sleep.
I can just imagine what it's
like for that cat right now.
More cream?
Ugh, okay, you're not going
to fall asleep that way.
(loud clank)
What's that?
(gasps)
I can't wait to tell Truman
I was right.
It is scary in here.
Go to sleep, go to sleep,
go to sleep.
(dog barks)
Wait a minute, that's a...
(barks)
(barking)
It is. It's another dog.
(loudly):
Are you okay?
(dog barks rapidly)
I'm sorry, you've got
to calm down.
I can't understand you.
You know what, just hold on and
I'll try and come and find you.
Yes, yes, yes...
(sighs)
Yes!
Don't worry, I'm coming.
Oh, I see, a suitcase fell and
broke the lock on your door.
Ah, you spit out your pill.
Bet you won't do that again.
(barking)
You don't have to be so scared.
Soon we'll arrive
at the airport in Montana
and you'll be just fine.
(barking)
Riding in the cargo hold
is simple.
You just depart,
fly for a little bit,
and then you arrive
where you're going.
(loud crash)
(dog barks in fright)
Wait a minute,
I know what this is.
(dogs barking)
It's okay, everybody.
Calm down, this is just
some turbulence.
It's when the wind
blows the plane a little.
Just like a bumpy road, right?
Nothing to be
afraid of here.
It'll stop in a...
(laughs)
See? Nothing to be afraid of.
Just a little turbulence.
You can all go
back to sleep.
(dogs yawn)
Now let's get you
back in your cage.
Would you like that?
(muffled):
Oh, hi, guys.
That turbulence made
a little mess
but don't worry,
I fixed it for you.
Huh?
Huh?
So you weren't
scared at all?
No, not really.
And it's sure given me a lot
to tell the g*ng
at the fire hydrant.
(cat screeches)
(gasps)
Is that...
It freaked out as soon
as the plane took off.
It broke out
of its cage.
The crew was
chasing it around
the whole flight.
(screeching)
You'd never catch
a dog doing that.
Today we're going to talk
about arrive and depart.
Arrive means when someone
or something gets someplace.
Like when I arrive home.
Hello! The dog is back!
It's great when food arrives.
But the best kind of arrival is
when the family arrives home.
(barks)
Hello, Skits.
The opposite of arrive
is depart.
Depart just means leave.
You can depart the house.
Sometimes you depart in a car.
Airplanes arrive and depart
all day long.
You know, it was fun doing
a show about flying.
But believe me, dogs do not
like riding in the cargo hold.
Time to depart.
Bye!
(a distant hawk screeches)
This looks bad, Slim.
Ola!
Hi!
Howdy, cowboy!
Hammina wha...
What? What'd I say?
DAD:
I guess I forgot to mention
in my message
that Martha speaks.
Ain't fittin'.
MARTHA:
Why are we going
to a ranch anyway?
I thought on vacation
people stayed in hotels.
Not on this
vacation.
We're going on
a cattle drive.
Driving cows?
Western cows must be really
talented and tiny.
The cows on CK's farm can't even
fit into a car,
much less drive one.
No.
On a cattle drive,
the cows don't drive you,
you drive them.
Really?
ALL:
* One hundred bottles of milk
on the wall *
* One hundred bottles of milk
* Take one down,
pass it around *
* bottles of milk
on the wall. *
(cows moo)
Oh, I think we need
a bigger bus.
HELEN (laughing):
No, no, no.
Cattle drives don't
have anything to do
with cars or buses.
They don't?
No.
In a cattle drive,
people walk cows along a trail
from one ranch to another.
Cow walking?
That's your idea of a vacation?
Pretty neat, huh?
The great outdoors!
(quietly):
No wonder Jakey stayed at home
with Grandma Lucille.
COOKIE:
On a vacation,
you take off of work
and relax, don't you?
Maybe go to the
mountains to ski,
or to the beach for a swim.
Uh-huh.
Well, this ain't
that kind of vacation.
It's a cattle drive.
Ain't no relaxin'
or swimmin'.
It's work--
hard work--
and don't you
forget it!
(sarcastically):
"Ooohh, I want a vacation."
Looks like we got off on
the wrong foot with Cookie.
I didn't stand
on his feet!
Either of them!
(laughs)
Es una expresión.
When you say you get off on
the wrong foot with someone,
it means you made a bad
first impression.
Oh. I hope we get on
the right foot soon.
Me, too.
(clanging)
Come and get it.
What's that?
It's the chuck wagon.
It's where cowboys keep
their food on cattle drives.
Really?
These vittles ain't fit
for a dog.
Au contraire, mon frère!
Maybe I was wrong about you.
ALL:
Ugh!
Mmm!
We'll camp here.
Get some shuteye,
because we'll depart mighty
early in the morning.
(grunts)
Where are we
supposed to sleep?
You're lookin' at it.
Outdoors?
What's the matter,
little doggie?
Is that ground too hard?
Maybe you'd like
better lodging?
Lodging?
Lodging means a place you stay
when you're away from home.
Oh, well, yes.
Better lodging
would be great.
Nothing fancy--
maybe just a
comfy chair.
Well, there ain't
no lodging!
This ain't that
kind of vacation.
This is a cattle drive.
On a cattle drive, cowboys camp
outdoors on the ground.
Got it?
ALL:
Yes, sir.
(dismissively):
City folk.
(gulps hard)
I think I stepped on
his other wrong foot.
(horses neigh, cows moo)
(Skits barks)
(Martha squeals happily)
(mooing)
(Martha pants)
Martha? Would you like
to ride up here with me?
Would I?!
Wow, you can really
see far up here.
Makes you feel like a
real cowboy, doesn't it?
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Get along
little dogies *
Hey! What's the idea?
Get along, dogie?
You invited me up here.
You're not a dogie,
you're a doggie.
A dogie is a
motherless cow.
That's not
a very nice song.
First the baby cow
loses its mother
and then you tell
it to get lost.
The words ought to be
more inviting.
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Have a seat, little dogies
* I know your mama
don't want you to roam *
(loud mooing)
Cows like it.
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Rest your feet little dogies
Whoa! Now look
what you've done!
This is a cattle drive!
Cows can't sit!
They're supposed to move
along the trail!
Oh. Sorry.
It was just a song.
When I said, "Have a seat,"
I didn't really mean it,
did I, Skits?
(barks)
So let's move 'em out!
(moos loudly)
(laughs nervously)
While the cows are
having a seat,
why don't we do
some sightseeing?
Oh, that's a
great idea.
We can tour around on our horses
and look at the scenery.
Sightseeing?
Yeah, sightseeing.
When you go sightseeing,
it means you visit
all the fun things
in the place
you're vacationing.
Oh, don't that sound nice?
We could tour around and take
pictures, couldn't we?
ALL:
Uh-huh.
'Cept we're not doing
no sightseeing!
This ain't that kind
of vacation.
This is a cattle drive,
and there's no taking
purdy pictures of the scenery.
(flashbulb pops)
Ah!
Sorry.
Now I'm on
the wrong foot.
Me, too.
Me, too.
(sighing):
Welcome to my world.
We'll have to break camp
extra early tomorrow
on account of the
cows sitting today.
(mooing)
HELEN:
Cookie?
Something's wrong
with the cows.
There's wolves out there.
The cows can smell them.
They make the cows jumpy.
(wolf howls loudly)
Hey! Kinfolk!
(howls)
Stampede!
Stampede?
What's a stampede?
Una estampida, a stampede,
is when a bunch of animals
or even people run away
because they're scared.
COOKIE:
We got to stop those cows!
You stay here!
Yee-haw!
(Skits and Martha bark)
Yee-haw!
Stop yellin'
"yee-haw!"
Why? I thought that's
what cowboys did.
Yeah, when we want
the cows to move.
We want 'em to stay put.
Sorry.
MARTHA:
Hooray!
You did it!
(laughs nervously)
At least we covered
some extra distance.
You are lodging
in the wagon tonight.
In the wagon? Why?
What did I do?
Howled like a wolf around a cow,
that's what.
I won't talk in wolf ever again,
I promise.
Shouldn't be
talking at all!
It ain't fittin'.
COOKIE:
Soon as we eat breakfast,
we'll break camp.
(gasps)
Martha!
You ate all the food
in the chuck wagon!
I did not!
There are still some
cans of beans left.
(growls questioningly)
I couldn't figure out how
to work the can opener.
Why can't I walk
with the cows?
Because I don't want you
to make them stampede again.
I won't, Helen, I promise.
I've learned my lesson.
(gasps)
What's that?
HELEN:
A prairie dog.
(laughing):
That's no dog.
That's some kind of a squirrel.
Skits!
Squirrel!
Martha!
(barking)
You're sure Martha
will be all right?
I can't stand that she has
to camp off by herself.
MOM:
Cookie thinks it's
best for the cows, honey.
You're the worst cattle
dog I've ever seen.
I know.
You won't hear another
word out of me.
Not a peep.
(soft rumble)
(Skits whines)
I know, Skits,
I hear it, too.
Sounds like a thunderstorm.
(thunderclap)
Another stampede!
It's not my fault this time.
(thunderclap)
(horses whinny)
Oh, no!
The lightning spooked
the horses, too!
Those cows are going to run
right over the cliff.
Cliff?
!
Woof?
What cliff?
There's a cliff up ahead.
The cows won't see it--
they're blind with fear.
They'll go right over.
Skits, help me dig
up this stake.
(woofs a question)
I think I know a way
we can stop those cows.
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Have a seat, little dogies
* I know your mama
don't want you to roam *
Look!
The cows are
slowing down.
Everybody! Sing!
ALL:
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Have a seat, little dogies
* I know your mama
don't want you to roam *
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Rest your feet little dogies
* You know you should make
yourself feel right at home. *
(mooing)
(cheering)
COOKIE:
Martha, I was wrong about you.
You're the best cattle dog
this drive has ever seen.
Aw.
Now, what are the words
to that song again?
* Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo
* Have a seat, little dogies
ALL:
* You know you should make
yourself feel right at home. *
I've put together
a slideshow
of all the beautiful scenery
we saw on our vacation.
Here's some mountain scenery.
And some river scenery.
And some wildlife scenery.
And here's a picture
of some garbage scenery.
HELEN:
Martha!
Garbage is
not scenery.
Scenery means stuff you see
outdoors when you look around,
like plants and
trees and rocks.
Well, I looked around
and I saw some garbage.
And I thought
it was scenic.
Now may we continue
with the slideshow
of scenery
from our tour?
Mm-hmm.
Ewwwww!
Ah, mystery rotting
thing scenery.
My favorite!
Oh, my assistant is
not feeling well.
I'll have to show you the rest
of my pictures another time.
(Skits barks)
Did you have a fun trip
through today's vocabulary?
Let's see some of
those words again.
On a vacation, you take
off of work and relax.
Scenery means stuff you see
outdoors when you look around,
like plants and
trees and rocks.
Lodging means a place you stay
when you're away from home.
Next vacation I'm staying
in the back yard.
Mm-hmm.
To dig up some more fun words
and games, visit pbskids.org
* Who's that dog? *
* Who's
that dog? *
* Dog, d-d-dog, d-dog. *
That dog is Cameo.
Come on, Cam.
My name is Mark.
Cameo is an agility dog.
An agility course is made
for training.
Cameo is good at agility
because she's very, very, very,
very, very intelligent.
I think I should show you
how good she is.
Let's have some fun.
*
At Canine University, my mom
helps people train their dogs.
I suggest that you go there.
(laughs)
This sequence
is jump, tip it.
Okay.
Jump!
Tip it!
She is very, very, very,
very, very, very, very,
very, very, very wonderful.
* She's that dog... *
* Dog, d-d-dog, d-dog. *
