Kids: ♪ max and ruby

- Stick.

- I'm sure there are lots of other sticks

That will be perfect

For your flipping chicks to flip onto.

- Stick.

- Oh, sorry, max.

Louise and I are on a very important mission.

Today is the day we try to earn

Our bunny scout insect expert badge.

Right, bunny scout louise?

- Right, bunny scout ruby.

I've got my camera all ready.

- And I've got my insect expert guidebook.

- You see, max,

To earn our bunny scout insect expert badge,

Louise and I have to find

The most unusual-looking insect in the garden...

- And take a picture of it for bunny scout leader.

- Stick.

- Okay.

You go look for your stick,

And we'll look for the most unusual insect.

- Good luck, max.

- Stick!

[Gasps]

[Giggles]

- Uh, ruby?

- Yes, louise?

- How will we know when we find

An unusual-looking insect?

- Because it'll look...

Unusual.

- You mean, like something we've never seen before.

- Exactly.

We'll know it when we see it

Because we've never seen it before.

- Like...

Something like that?

- Like what?

Louise, you did it.

You found an unusual-looking insect.

- Yay.

We're gonna get

Our bunny scout insect expert badges.

- Shh. We don't want to scare it away.

- Oh. Right, ruby.

- According to my insect expert guidebook,

The bug you found is called a horned beetle.

- Wow.

- I think bunny scout leader will be very happy.

- I know she will.

You're better at taking pictures than I am, ruby.

- Are you sure, louise?

- We're a team, right, bunny scout ruby?

- Right, bunny scout louise.

- Oh, this looks good.

, --

- Stick!

- Oh! Max, what are you doing?

Good for you, max.

I guess you found a new stick.

Louise and I just found what we're looking for too.

- A horned beetle.

- Right.

I was just about to take its picture,

So could you move, please?

[Gasps] our horned beetle!

Where did it go?

- I can't see it anywhere.

It's gone, ruby.

- Now we're going to have to find

Another unusual-looking insect.

Come on, louise. Let's keep looking.

- What is it?

- According to my insect expert guidebook,

It's a centipede.

It has legs.

Both: wow.

How unusual.

- Hurry, ruby.

Take its picture before it moves.

- Okay, here goes.

Huh?

- Stick.

- Max, I know you have a stick,

And it's a very nice stick,

But I'm trying to take a picture of a centipede.

Now, if you'll just let me take its picture--

[Both yell]

- [Gasps]

The camera was facing the wrong way.

[Both groan]

- Stick.

- Max, bunny scout leader is coming here soon,

And we still don't have a picture.

- [Gasps] ruby, pass me the camera.

There's a really beautiful butterfly on your head.

- There is?

[Gasps]

- Come on, let's follow it

And wait for it to land somewhere else.

- I'm right with you, louise.

- [Giggles]

- Stick.

- [Giggles] not now, max.

- Don't let it out of your sight, ruby.

- I'm trying not to, louise.

- I think it's looking for a place to rest.

- Now's our chance.

- My guidebook says it's a spotted swallowtail butterfly.

Very unusual.

- Perfect for earning our bunny scout insect expert badge.

Quick, take its picture.

- Stick.

- Max, I know it's your stick,

But we're not looking for a stick.

We're looking for a very unusual insect.

- And you certainly found one.

Both: hello, bunny scout leader.

- Well, we did, bunny scout leader,

But instead of taking a picture

Of a spotted swallowtail butterfly,

All I got was a picture of max's stick.

- I know, ruby.

It's the stick I'm talking about.

- The stick?

[All gasp]

- What is that?

- It's called a walking stick.

It's a bug that looks just like a stick.

- Walking sticks are one of the most

Unusual-looking insects anywhere.

Both: you mean... - Congratulations, girls.

You've earned your bunny scout insect expert badges

For finding the most unusual-looking insect

Any bunny scout has ever photographed.

- We didn't do it alone.

In fact, we couldn't have done it at all

Without max and his--

- Walking stick!

- Launch!

- Does it look straight to you, ruby?

- Perfectly straight, louise.

[Both giggle]

Perfect.

- Then it's time to break our badminton record.

- Do you think we can?

We've never hit the birdie over the net

Times in a row before.

- I know.

We'll have to concentrate very hard.

Remember, the key to great badminton playing

Is to keep your eye on the birdie.

- [Giggles]

It's funny that it's called a birdie, isn't it?

- Some people call it a shuttlecock.

Both: let's call ours a birdie.

[Both giggle]

- Ready to break our record?

- Ready.

- .

- --Whoops!

Aww.

Sorry, ruby.

I kept my eye on the birdie all the way up into the tree.

- That's okay, louise.

We've got lots more. [Giggles]

- [Giggles]

Electronic voice: rocket in position.

Ready to launch.

- Launch!

Electronic voice: countdown to rocket launch.

,

...

- .

- .

- .

Electronic voice: blast off.

- Launch!

[Motor sputtering]

[Rocket whistling]

- .

- .

[Rocket whistling]

- Whoa.

- It's hard to keep your eye on the birdie

When there's a rocket sh**ting at you.

- [Giggles] you're right about that, louise.

[Giggles]

Oh, max.

- Launch.

- That was a very nice launch,

But louise and I are trying to break our badminton record.

We need to get hits

Without letting the birdie fall on the ground.

- Or land in the tree.

- So if you just wait till we break our record,

Then you can launch your rocket, okay?

Thanks, max.

Okay, let's start again.

- Launch.

[Beeping]

[Engine sputters]

- .

- .

- .

Ugh! - Oh no.

[Beeping]

- Could you please keep your rocket and airplane

On the ground?

[Sighs]

Thanks.

I knew you'd understand.

Don't worry, max.

- The more we play, the better we get.

- We're going to break that record in no time.

[Jack-in-the-box giggles]

- Launch.

- .

- .

- . We're halfway there.

- Launch!

[Jack-in-the-box creaks]

- [Groans]

Not again.

- I believe this belongs to you, max?

- Ruby and I are so close to breaking our record.

- Close. That's the problem.

You're too close.

- Come on, max.

If you play over here, you can play with anything you want.

There. That should be far enough.

Have fun, max.

It's okay, louise.

Max's toys won't interrupt us again.

- That's good.

- I know. I'm running out of energy.

- And we're running out of birdies.

- Then we'd better make this one count.

This is our last chance.

Both: let's go.

- .

- .

- .

- Launch!

[Rocket whistles]

- .

- . We're almost there, ruby.

[Rocket whistles]

- .

[Gasps]

[Ricochet sounds]

Both: ah!

- Keep your eye on the birdie-- uh, birdies.

- I'm trying. There's so many of them.

- Oh.

Oh, I completely lost count.

- I didn't.

I counted hits.

- ? Really?

- Uh-huh.

You know what that means.

- It means we didn't [span] just[/span]break our record;

We broke it by a lot.

And it was all thanks to max's--

- Launch.

[Ruby humming]

- Uh, which tables do these go on, ruby?

- [Gasps]

- Catch?

- I can't play catch with you, max.

Grandma's garden party is today,

And louise and I are helping

While grandma's upstairs getting ready.

Don't worry; I've got a surprise for you.

- Hey, ruby.

Hey, louise. Hey, max.

Both: hi, roger.

[Both giggle]

- I asked roger to come play with max

While you and I help grandma.

- Good idea, ruby.

- Uh-huh.

- Grandma's guests will be here soon,

And we have to get everything set out.

- We still have to put out sandwiches and the punch...

- And the most important thing of all...

Both: grandma's famous five fruit fiesta flan.

Yum. [Both giggle]

- So if you two could play over there,

We can finish helping grandma.

- Uh-huh. Ready for a game of catch, max?

- Catch.

- [Laughs] all right.

Come on.

- Setting out the plates and cutlery

Is kind of like decorating the table,

If you do it right.

- And we know how to do it right.

- Right, ruby?

- Right, louise.

[Both laugh]

- Don't forget to put a fork on top of those napkins.

- Why?

[Wind blows]

Oh. That's why.

[Both laugh]

- Okay, max,

Here's a few pointers on how to play catch.

First, always try to catch the ball

In the pocket of your glove.

Pocket's this spot right here.

Got it?

- Catch.

- Okay, here you go.

Nice try, max.

Just have to hold the glove a little lower.

Don't block your view of the ball.

Right.

You need to be able to see where the ball is falling

So you can get underneath it and catch it.

- Catch?

- Uh-huh.

Okay, here we go.

- Catch.

- You're catching on.

Now I'll try a harder one.

- This is another one of grandma's specialties:

Sandwich pyramids.

- I hope they still look like pyramids

When we get them to the table.

[Gasps]

[Gasps]

- [Gasps]

Both: phew.

- Catch.

- I'm glad you're having fun playing with roger,

But maybe you two could play

Farther from grandma's garden party, okay?

- Uh-huh.

Come on.

- Thanks, roger.

The guests will be arriving any minute.

We'd better hurry.

[Both giggle]

- That's a little far, don't you think?

- Catch.

- Okay, but remember what I said:

Keep your eye on the ball and get under it as it drops.

- Okay, ready?

- It isn't easy to hurry with a punch bowl full of punch.

- Or with punch glasses.

- Whoa.

- [Yells]

- Phew.

- Oof. That sure was close.

- Hmm.

[Both giggle]

- Catch?

- You want everything to go smoothly

For the garden party, right?

Well, the guests are about to arrive,

And louise and I still have to bring out

Grandma's famous five fruit fiesta flan.

If anything happened to that,

Her guests would be very disappointed.

- So would we.

- So maybe you two should play on the other side of the fence,

Just to be safe.

- Uh-huh.

- Thanks.

We better hurry.

And now for the main attraction.

- How's it going down there, ruby?

- Fine, grandma.

We've got it all under control.

- I don't know what I would have done

Without your help.

[Knock at door]

- [Gasps] look, there's my first guest.

Time to put the flan out, girls.

Both: grandma's famous five fruit fiesta flan.

[Giggles]

- This is our most important job of the day.

Everybunny's coming to the party

Just to have a taste of this.

- Mm-hmm.

- [Chuckles nervously]

I think this is a two-bunny job.

- And I'm your second bunny.

Both: perfect.

- Catch.

- Way over there?

Are you sure?

- Catch.

- Okay. Just remember to stay under it.

- A little further.

Almost there.

Both: yay!

- And no signs of any bouncing balls.

- It looks perfect.

- Right this way, everyone.

- Uh-oh.

- Huh?

[Gasps]

[All cheer]

- Whoa!

That's how to get under the ball!

- What just happened?

- Ruby!

That was spectacular!

You just saved my famous five fruit fiesta flan

With your amazing...

- Catch.
