11x05 - Back to Canalia's Future

[bunniefuu]

Okay, there's this really bad
dude named Hacker.

The Hacker, to you.

Whatever.

He wants to take over the
cyber world from Motherboard.

[ Gasps ]
The three kids are sucked

into Cyberspace, and they use
brain power to help save

everybody.

Okay, here's the plan.

So they travel all over and
run into all these weird

creatures and have all these
awesome adventures.

It's totally up to them to save
Cyberspace.

Can three cool kids and a wacky
bird outsmart The Hacker?

Never!

There's only one way to find
out.

Tune in to "Cyberchase."

Of course I remembered.

So what are we
doing here, Didge?

We have to help
my friend, Pearl.

She told me Canalia
is in big trouble.

Trouble? I don't know, Didge.

Everyone seems happy to me.

Things might not be as good

Pearl says there's a problem.

I believe her.

We're here.

Wow. The water
is kind of low.

Looks like someone
has been measuring it.

Digit, over here.

There she is.

I thought
you were coming alone.

I brought the Cybersquad.

Whatever the problem is,
they can help.

I knew you looked familiar.

Wow.

Cool.

Whoa.

What's with all the secrecy?

Well, it's about the water.

There's a lot of it.

That's for sure.

That's what everyone says.

The problem is,
we're using too much of it.

The water level
does look kind of low.

I saw that when we got here.

And it's getting
lower and lower.

I've been keeping track,
but nobody

wants to hear about it.

Water evaporates
all the time.

You sure there's a problem?

Positive, and I've built
something

that will prove I'm right,
something that will answer

all the questions,
a time machine.

Whoa!

No way!

Does this thing
actually work?

It should once I insert
the final part. Didge?

One hyperspace data drive.

[ Gasps ]
[ Chuckles ]

What does a time machine have
to do with the water problem?

Well, it will show
everyone what the water level

was in years past
compared to what it is now

and what it will be
in the future

if we don't make changes.

Then they'll have
to believe you.

Exactly! Please work.

[ Beeping ]
[ Whirring ]

Yes!

Yeah!

This is awesome.

What are we waiting for?

Let's take a trip
down memory lane.

Um...

what if we don't come back?

Well, at least
we'll all be together.

Matt!

I've been
working on this for months.

I promise it'll be okay.

Welcome to Canalia
years ago.

Am I seeing what I'm seeing?

[ People laughing ]
It really worked.

I knew it would!

At least,
I was pretty sure it would.

Look, the water
level is higher.

But everyone is using
their sprinklers and hoses

just like
they are in the present.

True, but there are a lot
more of us in the present

than here in the past.

And more people using
the same amount of water

means the water is being
used up faster.

You got it, Matt, and if we
don't change our habits,

Canalia could dry up completely.

♪♪
Under here.

Doesn't the rain help?

Sure, but we use way
more water

than the amount of rain we get.

Your time machine
is the answer, Pearl.

Once your neighbors see this,
they will understand.

Okay.

Let's get back to the present
so we can save our future.

Yeah!

Okay. This time machine

is pretty cool.

Does anyone else know about it?

Not yet.

I'm keeping it hidden

to show everyone.

It's true.

A time machine in the hands
of you-know-who

could do who knows what.

[ Laughing wickedly ]

Until everyone sees
what we saw,

it's going to be hard
to convince them

to conserve water.

I've been trying to tell them
if they'd just make a few small

changes,
they won't be wasting

so much water.

Like stopping this leak?

Yes.

It just started last night.

My dad promised to fix it.

It's just leaking a little.

A little, yeah,
but these tiny drips

can add up to a lot.

I'll show you. We'll measure.

One scale for measuring.

That won't work, Digit.

You measure a liquid
by how much space it takes up,

so you need some kind
of container,

like this glass, but let's start
with an empty one.

It's going to take a while
to fill that.

♪♪
Whoa.

That didn't take long at all.

Ten minutes to be exact.

One glass is filled
in minutes,

so two glasses in minutes,
three glasses in minutes.

That's three full glasses
of water every / hour.

Yoikes! That's a lot
of glasses of water.

Imagine how many
you'd have in a full day.

See what I mean?

Wow, what a waste.

I asked for a town meeting
to explain

what everyone needs to do.

Hopefully they'll listen
this time.

They're gone.

My plan is working.

What plan, Boss?

We've just been waiting here
for weeks doing nothing.

That was the plan.

While we've been relaxing,
that little girl has made

a time machine.

Oh, brilliant, Boss.

Just brilliant.

And now that that
supercilious cybird

has brought the missing part,
just as I knew he would,

we can use the time machine
ourselves.

Can we go back in time
to when you had hair?

What did you just say?

He said,
"Can we go back in time" --

I heard what he said!

Listen closely.

Once we get that time machine,
we're going back into the past

when I worked for Motherboard,
only this time,

I will reset the course
of cyber history.

This time,
I will be in charge

of Cyberspace,
me, the Hacker, not Motherboard.

[ Laughs wickedly ]
Now, let's find a way

to get that time machine
to the Wreaker.

♪♪
Why are we here?

What's this all about?

Everyone, everyone, please.

For the past few months,
I have been telling you

that the water levels here
in Canalia are going down.

There's nothing to worry
about.

We get plenty of rain.

Besides, Canalia
is made of water.

Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Who is that guy?

It's okay.

I know it's hard to see
the difference,

but if we don't make
some changes now,

we might just run out of water.

What?

You got their attention now.

If everyone in Canalia
could save just one gallon

of water every day...

One gallon is nothing.

Yeah.

That's my point.

It may not sound like a lot,
but there are days

in the year,
so if we each saved

just one gallon a day,
we could each save gallons

a year.

[ Crowd murmuring ]
With everyone working

together,
the amount of water

you could save will add up fast.

Calm down, everyone.

We don't have to worry.

We're surrounded
by plenty of water.

Sounds good.

It's that guy again.

Dad.

That's your dad?

Honey, you have to stop
worrying about

all this water stuff.

But, Dad, you have
to listen to me.

What?

You're losing them.

We have to do something.

Please, everyone listen.

Pearl is telling the truth.

You have to believe her.

Why should we?

Does she have proof?

She does.

What proof?

She built a time machine.

Matt!

she did, and she can show you
how Canalia has changed

over the years.

This is your time machine?

No. It's not.

I mean, I don't know
what this is.

Wow.

Waste of time.

It was here. We saw it.

We went back
in time ourselves.

Pearl, honey, I know
you think we need

to conserve more water,
but making up stories

about a time machine
is not going to help.

But, Dad...

Wait! She's not making it up.

I'm really sorry, Pearl.

Maybe
I shouldn't have said anything.

It's not your fault, Matt.

I guess I did this all
for nothing.

No way, Pearl.

We'll find your time machine.

And we'll find out
who took it, too.

Now no one
will ever believe me.

Pearl, come back.

I'll go.

You guys find the time machine.

Look at this.

Hey.
Who would do such a mean thing?

This stuff looks familiar.

[ Gasps ]
Wig gel!

Hacker!
[ Gasps ]

If Hacker has
the time machine,

there's no telling
what he could use it for.

We've got to get it back
for Pearl.

And for all of Cyberspace.

Faster! I want to get this
to the Wreaker.

Soon all of Cyberspace
will be mine.

I'm going as fast as I can,
Boss. This thing is heavy.

Why wait, Boss?

Let's take over Cyberspace now.

Yeah. Let's do it now.

Then I can stop rowing.

You're right.

For once, you're right.

There's no need to wait.

How many years ago did I work
for Motherboard, , , ?

I think this many years.

back to the present

and figure out how it works.

The water is even lower
than last week.

There are even some spots
that are too shallow

for the gondolas.

That could be dangerous.

It is, but no one
believes me,

not even my dad,
especially now that he thinks

I made up the time machine.

anything.

Do we have to stop
using water?

What will we drink?

Everyone, stay calm.

We don't have
to do anything drastic.

If we just make
a few small changes,

we can make a big difference.

Let's do it.

If you shut off the water
But how?

when you brush your teeth,
you can save gallons

of water a day.

And if you cut your shower
time

by just minutes every day,
you can save gallons of water.

Fixing your leaky faucets
can save even more gallons

of water every single day.

Using a broom instead
of a hose

to clean your sidewalk
can save even more water each

and every day.

Put a rain barrel
under your drain pipe.

You'll be surprised
how much water you'll save.

Check it out, Pearl.

The rain from the roof
filled four big rain barrels.

Yeah!

And water from a rain barrel
can be used for other things,

like watering your flowers.

And washing your dog.

Saving your extra water
instead of pouring it out

is another good way to conserve.

If you water your lawn,
you can save even more

by running your sprinklers
at night

so the water doesn't evaporate
in the hot sun.

Well, first,
when we were washing the car,

Then when we came back in,
you started the washing machine
