- So in this story,
things get stranger and stranger

and then even stranger
than that.

- I'm Peg and this is Cat.
And today I'm telling Cat

the story of
Alice in Wonderland.

So one day this girl
named Alice...

- What's she look like?
- Uh, I don't know.

She was sitting in the grass
and she saw this rabbit

running by really fast...
- Oh, what'd he look like?

- We're not reading
a picture book, Cat.

I'm telling the story. So you
have to use your imagination,

and think how things might look.

- I don't want
to use my imagination.

I want to use pictures.
I got a BIG PROBLEM!

- OK, if you want pictures,
I'll draw some with my twig.

- Oh goody.
- This is Alice...

- Nice lookin' kid.

- And this is what
she finds in Wonderland.

- Your twig is showing me
Wonderland!

And so...

one afternoon, when--

- OUT OF MY WAY!
- AH! Where'd my twig go?

- Can't help you. I'm late.
- For what?

- Gotta keep goin'.
Oh, this should help.

- That's Peg's twig!
- Give it back!

- I can't. No time.

- Where did Toad go
with my twig?

I need my twig to write stuff
wherever I go!

I've got a REALLY TWIG PROBLEM!

- Whoa! Ho! Ho!
That is one deep hole!

- That's it!
- You think the Toad
jumped in there with your--

- A key!
- The Toad must have gone

through this door.
But we can't fit through it,

unless we change our height.
- Our hat? Our heat?

- "Height" is how high
you come up.

In Wonderland you can
change your height

by eating certain foods,
like these strawberries.

(gulp!)
- Oh my height's
changing alright.

- But we're not getting shorter.
We're getting taller.

- (voice echoes): Hi feet!
How's it goin' down there?

- These blueberries might help.
(gulp!)

- Woah! Goin' down!
- So in Wonderland...

- Hey Peg.

- Ramone? What are you doing
in Wonderland?

- Filling in

giving advice in weird ways.

- Sitting in a tree wearing
a tail is pretty weird.

the Toad who took your twig,

go to the Mad Hatter's

- Vat are you doing?!
- I thought you said--

- At my table zere must be

on each side! Vun, two.
Vun, two.

Don't mess up my table!

there were one, two,
three, four of us

and one, two on the other side.

- Four und two is not zee same!
- And if we sat on this side,

there would be four here
and two there!

- Again, not zee same! So
you can never join my tea party!

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

The same on both sides.

So we can join

- Yah! So vut's your kvestion?
- Where can we find the Toad?

- Hm. Never heard of him.
- Ramone said you know a number

of things about the Toad.
- I do.

- But you just said--
- I know nothing about zee Toad.

Nothing means zero things.
Und zero is a number.

It comes right before one!
So I know a number of things

about zee Toad!
And zat number is zero! Ha!

- Oh! It can't be done.
- It's impossible.

- Oink.
- I'll do it, your Majesty.
- A little girl? Solving a big

problem?
(laughter)

- May I? The Jack has

one, two, three, four,
five tarts.

You have one, two, three tarts.

He has one, two more tarts
than you.

So to make your piles
the same height,

we could take away two!
- Take away two!

- Don't take me away!
- I didn't mean you should

take away the two of hearts.
- Take away three!

Take away four!
- This is so bogus.

- Don't take away anybody,
your Majesty!

I'm saying if you take away
one, two tarts

his stack's the same height
as yours.

- Oink.
- Hurrah!
- You solved my problem.

What would you like in return?
- That twig?

- You want my royal twig?
- Uh, yeah.

- For pleasing the Queen,

you shall have more
than just one twig.

You shall have ten. Let the twig
be cut into ten pieces!

- No!
- What the Queen says, goes!

- They're destroying my twig!

It's a really big part
of who I am,

as is TOTALLY FREAKING OUT!

(Ding! Dong! Ding! Dong!)
(Tweet!)

- Cat's right. I should count
backwards from five

to calm down.
Five,

four, three, two, one.

That's it you
snack-eating genius!

- Huh?
- To get my twig

down from there, we should
increase our height!

♪ Strawberries make you taller ♪
- It's that little girl!

- All grown up!
- Gimme back my twig!

- Never! You'll have to--
take it...

- Stop them!
- So by knowing about height,

we got back my twig.

- Math really blows me away.

- Math is mad cool.

- Math takes the cake. Woah!

there yourself, yah?

- Ya!
- Ya!

is there anything else

the zebras on my back,

he said there was only .

I guess I dropped
a whole lot of zebras.

- Actually, Uncle Phil,
we only gave you five dolls

Five and one more is six.

The perfect bat mitzvah gift!

- And now it's time for a
favorite bat mitzvah tradition.

Lifting the bat mitzvah girl
into the air, on a chair!

Usually it takes four people
to do the lifting.

But I just met a guy who said
he can lift it himself

for seconds!
- Uh oh.

- Uncle Phil, get out here!

- Actually, I'll just sit here
and be myself.

- Uncle Phil! Uncle Phil!

- This moment is like so...
Help!

- We have to help Phil
before he drops the chair.

He said he can hold it
for seconds.

So he can really
only hold it... how long?

The blocks we used to take
from the teen numbers are gone.

- They cleared the table.
Who would clear a table?

- If we don't help Phil in time,
he'll drop Tessa on her face!

Instead of being
her best friends forever,

we'll be her worst enemies
for a really short time!

I am totally freaking out!

(Ding! Dong! Ding! Dong!)
(Tweet!)

Cat's right.
I should count backwards

from five to calm down.

Five, four,

three, two, one.

That's it, you leaning
tower of genius!

it says three!
