07x04 - Blowin' in the Wind

Post by bunniefuu »

Cyberchase - we're moving

we're b*ating Hacker at his game

Don't tell me that he's
trying to hack the Motherboard

we'll get him every time

...places that we've seen

We've got the power
of one, two, three, four!

Running in the Cyberchase

We meet him face to face

We'll stick together
all the time

Adventures in cyberspace

The chase is on!

C-y-b-e-r-chase!

Let me rock your world,
nothing would be cooler.

Let me rock your world,
and I'll become your ruler.

I'll make cyberspace a
better place, YEA, OOOOooo!

ENOUGH! STOP!

You're the worst
musicians in Cyberspace!

You're fired, both of you!

But boss...we're your band!

Yeah, we're your Nobodys.

Not anymore!

I'm going on tour
without out you!

I'll find new Nobodies.

I'll become a rock star so
cyberkids will love me -

and want me to be their leader!

This scheme is
too important to let

you two duncebuckets ruin it!

But you told us we'd
be on stage with you!

You promised!

That was before
I heard you play!

That's not fair!

Yeah.

Where's your loyalty?

Loyalty?

Did you say loyalty?

...He did.

That was him.

Haven't I kept you both
working for me even though

you're totally incompetent?

Well, we're loyal too.

Loyal, huh?

Let's see how loyal
you really are.

You stay here... start
your own band...get good...

and I might
just make you famous.

After I'm famous, of course!

We'll do it, boss!

We'll show you loyal!

Yeah!

You can trust us!

Yeah.

I'll be back
as soon as I become

more popular than Motherboard.

Until then, rock on.

Hey...I almost forgot.

Put this letter
in a safe place.

And don't open it!

No one - and I mean
no one can read it!

Got it?

Yeah.

Got it.

Ta-ta!

Bye, boss, good luck!

Yeah, we'll miss you...not!

"Do not open for
one-hundred cyberyears."

Why can't we open it now?

Friends don't keep
secrets from friends!

That's not very loyal.

So if Hacker's
not loyal to us...

why should we be loyal to him?

Right.

Let's open it!

But someplace more... private.

Sheesh!

This pod can perk!

I added nano-stabilizers
for perfect control.

I'll show ya!

Oh, boy.

My stomach can't wait.

YYYYOIKES!

Slider, look!

It's the Grim Wreaker.

Hang on, Didge!

He didn't see us - we're safe.

I take that back...
WE'RE GONNA CRASH!

I call it my "nose stand."

Whaddya think?

I think I wanna go
to Motherboard's.

This is a good spot, Deedee.

Huh?

It's Buzz and Delete!

Open it, Buzzy...let's
see what the letter says!

"By the time you read this, I
will have ruled Cyberspace for

one-hundred cyber years.

To celebrate my victory,
I've written a book called

"Secrets of The Hacker."

"Inside is a chapter on the
secret code I used to give

Motherboard the virus!"

Uh!

Did you hear that?

Wow!

Hacker's never
told anyone that code.

Yea, it's always
been his big secret.

Just think...if we knew what
that code was, we'd be famous!

More than famous -
we'd be powerful!

We could control
Motherboard ourselves...

and rule
Cyberspace without Hacker!

But what about
being rock stars?

Could we still do that?

We could do anything, Deedee!

Sounds good!

Where do we find this book?

"I buried the book
at the highest point

of the windiest place on
the Northern Frontier."

Wine-di-est place?

Where's that?

I dunno, but we'll find it.

Come on!

Crank this baby up, Slider.

We gotta go tell Motherboard!

The book has the code Hacker
used to give you the virus!

Mother B, if we
find that book,

maybe we can undo the
damage he caused you.

That would be awesome!

And where is this book?

They said it was buried
at the highest point of

the wine-di-est place
on the Northern Frontier.

Wine-di-est place?

Are you sure that
information is correct?

I'll double-check.

I took a picture
of the letter.

"Highest point of the...

windiest place -
not wine-di-est!

Where's the windiest
place, Motherboard?

Motherboard?

Not to worry - it's
just a temporary glitch!

I know the Northern Frontier
like the back of my wing.

We'll find the windiest
place and the book -

Hacker or no Hacker!

Listen up, misfits.

Don't waste my
time unless you rock.

I want the best
nobodies to be the Nobodys!

Who's first?

Okay...show me
what you've got!

Yodel-lodel-lodel-yay...

NEXT!

NEXT!

NEXT!

NEXT!

NEXT!

That was appalling!

You all stink!

BUT...the least stinky...
and therefore my new Nobodys,

are: Tonga...

Trashinator...

Cyclops...

and Baskerville!

Oh, thank you, Master Rocker...
Master...Master Master.

ZIP IT!

Well, here we are, Deedee.

The longest, wine-di-est
road in the Northern Frontier!

And this is the highest point.

All we have to do
is find Hacker's book.

Then we can take
over Cyberspace.

And become rock
stars, don't forget!

We are... we are... rock stars!

We are... we are... rock stars!

We are... we are...

rr --- Ooomp!

Ow!

Zephyr Winds Mine!

This has gotta be the place!

Last time I was here
it was really windy!

It's windy, all right!

Yea, but is it the windiest
place on the Northern Frontier?

How do we know?

I'll check with my buddies.

They do wind-sports
around here all the time

when Hacker's not around.

Man, it's really windy here!

Look what it's
doing to my yo-yo!

...YEOW!

...MAAAAAT!

Hellllp!

Hang on, Matty, I'll get you!

Whew, it was
windier than I thought!

Good thing I had my yo-yo!

Even better, I have a back-up!

Maybe this wine-dy river
is the wine-diest place.

It's pretty wine-dy!

But where's the highest point?

That's where Hacker
said he buried the book.

It's probably at the end.

But which end?

Up river or down?

Whoooooaaaa...!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...

You think we went
the wrong way?

Your friends say there are
four places windier than here?

Yeah.

Check 'em out!

That's Chubasco and Khamsin
windsurfing near Gusty Isle.

Mistral wacky-skating
on Breezy Flats.

Sirocco kite-boarding
at Blustery Point.

Cyclone and Monsoon in
kite buggies at The Dunes.

But which place
is the windiest?

Gusty Isle?

Breezy Flats?

Blustery Point?

Or The Dunes?

Yeah.

Like, how can we tell which
one is the Numbero Uno of wind?

Well, maybe we can
compare the winds somehow.

You know, measure the
different strength of

the wind in each place.

You want to measure
wind, air, whatever?

I got plenty of
measuring thingies.

Which one of these
do you want to use?

Umm, none of those
are quite right, Didge.

Sli, let's look at
those pictures again.

Look.

What everyone has in common
is that they're getting moved

by the wind when it
pushes their kites or sails.

More wind means more
push - and more speed.

So maybe we can measure how
strong the wind is by how

hard it pushes on something.

Right!

Like a kite or a sail.

Or my yo-yo!

Remember how it wouldn't stay
still 'cause the wind kept

pushing it sideways?

What if we measure the
strength of the wind by how

far it pushes the yo-yo?

How do we remember how
far the yo-yo moves?

I have an idea!

...let's make something that
measures how far it moves,

and then keep track.

...Matt, let me
have your yo-yo.

When the yo-yo hangs straight
down, it's like zero.

No wind pushing it.

But when the wind
does push it,

we can measure how far
it moves from the line.

I get it!

The stronger the wind,
the further it'll go!

Brilliant!

I will be your one and only,
I will never leave you lonely...

Every minute of every hour,
you just give me all your power.

Hacker rocks!

Can you believe it?

Yeah!

How can someone who
sings so good be so bad?

Maybe he's not really so bad!

My plan is working!

They adore me!

I'll be ruling
Cyberspace in no time!

So we can just put
a dot on the spot where

the wind pushes the yo-yo to.

That's a start, Matt, but
we need something more...

Yeah, we really need something
that will help us compare

the wind in different places.

Why can't we just use
numbers to measure the wind?

That's it, Didge!

You're a genius!

Hee, hee!

We can use numbers!

Watch...!

We can measure from no
wind to a lotta wind...

...all we have to
do is make a scale,

by filling in the
numbers one to ten.

So we've got a
three wind here,

and a place with just a
little wind is a...one?

And a place where the
wind is blowing really,

really hard, that's a " "?

Hey!

We made a wind gauge!

Now we'll know that a
number three wind at Gusty Isle

is the same as a number
three wind at Breezy Point.

Let's go measure
those other places!

It'll go a lot faster
if you each measure

a different place.

No problem!

We can make more wind gauges!

Blustery Point.

Wind strength: four!

Breezy Flats.

Wind Strength: two!

Gusty Isle wind strength: six!

Yoiiikes!

The Dunes.

Wind Strength: two!

The winner is Gusty Isle,
with a wind strength of six!

Comin' to get ya, guys!

So this is Gusty Isle,
the windiest place

on the Northern Frontier.

And we're standing
on the highest point.

Then Hacker's book has
to be around here somewhere!

Let's start digging!

With a dinky shovel like that?

No way!

Hacker would have
buried his book deep!

What we need is some sort
of giant excavating machine.

Well, I don't know about
an excavating machine...

but maybe we can
make a wind shovel.

I mean, look at all this wind.

Might as well put it to work!

This is the wine-di-est
place yet, Buzzy!

I feel it, Deedee!

We're gonna find that book.

Wh-what's that?

WOW!

Never seen a windmill
quite like this...

it's pretty cool!

We'll be reading
Hacker's book in no time!

How'd they find
out about the book?

Dunno.

but we gotta stop 'em!

Wait!

Somethin's wrong!

The scoop's not scooping!

The sails aren't turning!

The rope's not winding!

THE WINDMILL ISN'T WORKING!

Here's the problem!

The wind strength
went from six to two!

Now it's back to four!

What's goin' on?

I don't get it, either!

Is this the
windiest place or not?

It should be.

We picked it 'cause
the wind strength was six.

Maybe we need a think-over.

You know, rethink what it
means to be the "windiest."

Yeah.

Is 'windiest' where the wind
blows strong once in a while?

Or where it blows
stronger than in other places...

more often than not?

I go with...blows
stronger more often than not!

Makes sense to me.

Maybe we made a mistake by
judging how windy a place

is from only one measurement.

Then we need to go back
to each spot, get more

measurements and compare
the wind strength numbers.

Let's get goin'!

I'll stay here - keep
an eye on this thing and take

some more wind measurements!

What are they
talking about, Buzzy?

Who cares about the wind?

We do, Deedee, we
just didn't know it!

Hacker buried his book
at the windiest place...

not the wine-diest!

I'll give you love, make
your world an awesome place,

if you just let The
Hacker rule Cyberspace!

YEEEESSSSSSSS...!

I'll give you love,

make your world
an awesome place,

if you just let The
Hacker rule cyberspace!

YEAH!

I have two-four-three!

I have two-two!

I have four-eight-seven!

And I've got a headache!

Isn't there a better
way to do this?

Digit's right.

We've got so many
numbers to compare,

we've got to get organized.

How about this?

We write the numbers on the
back highest to lowest -

strongest wind
to the weakest -

then compare two
places at a time.

Works for me.

Let's do it.

What are they doin', Buzzy?

Gettin' organized.

We should try it some time.

Here are my scores
from Breezy Flats.

Here's what I
recorded at The Dunes.

My strongest
wind of four is greater

than your strongest wind of two.

And your three wind
beats my two wind.

And my weakest wind
of two is the same

as your weakest wind, two.

So Breezy Flats has
stronger winds than The Dunes...

more often than not.

Let's see how
Blustery Point compares.

...Wow!

My eight wind is all
over your four wind!

No kidding!

And check this.

Your seven wind
beats my three -

and your four wind beats my two!

Wipe out!

Which means Blustery Point
is windier on every measure!

Who's got the wind
measurements on Gusty Isle?

Gusty Isle here!

Read 'em and weep, Jax!

Let's see, my eight wind is
stronger than your six wind...

my seven wind
beats your four...

and my four beats your two!

Sorry, Didge...

Blustery Point wins!

What?

I demand a recount!

Just kidding.

That's it, then...

Blustery Point is the
windiest place most of the time!

I knew we were digging
in the wrong place!

Pack it up, guys.

Next stop Blustery Point!

C'mon, Buzzy...let's go to
Blustery Point and dig up

that book before they get there!

No way!

Let them dig it up for us!

It's working!

Man, talk about wind power!

I see something!

It's Hacker's book!

Keep your modems
crossed, Motherboard ...

we're about to cure your virus!

What?

YOIKES!

HEY, GIVE THAT BACK!

Guess who's gonna
rule Cyberspace now?

Is the code there, Buzzy?

What's it say?

The boss tricked us!

It says...

"Dear Buzz and Delete...

You flunked the loyalty test!

You weren't supposed
to open the envelope.

So I win.

I'm loyal and you're not!"

Um...is it just me, or
did the wind just stop?

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...

We're really
sorry, Motherboard.

Yeah, we thought for sure we
were going to find the code

to cure your virus.

Don't give up
hope, Cybersquad...

that day will soon come.

Guys! Over here!

It's Hacker!

What?

I don't believe it!

They like him -
they really like him!

He can actually sing!

...your ruler...Let
me rock your world,

I'll make Cyberspace a
better place...yeah, yeah...."

I'll make cyberspace
a better place, YEA!

Nooooooo!

He wasn't really singing!

It's not his voice!

Hacker's a fake!

What a surprise, huh?

Yeoooow!

Stay right where you are.

It's Cyberchase For Real!

Happy birthday!

Thanks so much!

Look!
Isn't this the best present?

I love it...I think.

It's a kite.

Wow. Let's go try it out.

Whoa! First things first.

We have to find
the best place to fly a kite.

So we're going
to make a wind gauge.

A wind gauge shows
how fast the wind blows.

Cool! Where did you
get the dire
Bianca, can I do it?

"Two: Make a hole
where the black dot is.

Tie the string
through the hole."

I'd really like to do it.

"Three. Attach a paper clip to
the other end of the string."

Great! Let's go try it out.

You are gonna have
the best birthday ever!

This looks like a great
place to fly a kite!

I don't know.

Let's see what
the wind gauge says.

Yikes...the wind speed
is off the charts!

You're holding
it the wrong way.

Hold the card so
the string lines up with zero.

Now, point
the arrow toward the wind.

What number does
the string line up with?

Five.
The wind gauge says is five.

Five feels like a good
amount of wind to fly a kite.

Well, it has to be
the best place. Come with me.

This is it! This is perfect!

The wind gauge says .

So, is greater than ,
so the wind is faster here.

Great! Let's fly the kite.

Not yet. There's
this other place I want to try.

Let's fly the kite here first.

But, the other
place would be better.

The city is planning on
building wind turbines there

to generate electricity.

Where is it?

On Staten Island.

This place called Fresh Kills.

Fresh Kills?
Bianca, that's a dump.

Well, maybe it's
not as nice the view here...

I mean it...
Fresh Kills really is a dump.

A place where
tons of garbage are buried.

Really?

There are plans to
turn the landfill into a park.

But since that
hasn't happened yet,

that's not where
I want to spend my birthday!

No?

Bianca, I really want
to try out my present.

Right here, right now. Okay?

Sorry. I guess
I just got carried away.

I just wanted to find
the perfect place to fly it

so you could
have an awesome birthday.

Let me fly it first,
and then I'll give you a turn.

You promise?

Cause I really love this kite.

I promise...
No strings attached!
