01x35 - The Curious Case of Pirate-it Is/Oscar the Couch

[bunniefuu]

- Coming up on Odd Squad. - Olive has pirate-itis?

- AH!

- More and more weird piratey things are gonna

start happening to her. And unless we stop it

before she goes full pirate, she'll be a pirate forever.

- My name is Agent Olive.

This is my partner, Agent Otto.

This is my ant Gladys.

But back to Otto and me.

We work for an organization run by kids that investigates

anything strange, weird,

and, especially, odd. Our job is to put things right again.

(theme music)

(Otto screaming)

(roaring)

- Squishinating!

- (Olive): Who do we work for?

We work for Odd Squad.

- Hey, partner. - Hey!

- What's with the hat? - What hat?

- The pirate hat that you're wearing on your head.

- I'm not wearing a pirate hat. - OK, I don't know

how long you want to keep doing this, but...

- AH! (grunting with effort)

I can't take it off! - Hey, guys! Did you come in contact with a pirate today?

- No. - Hmm!

- Oh! Well, I guess I did help a pirate cross the street.

(pirate music)

- Arr! Ah-ya.

Yar! Thanks for your help.

- You're welcome. Have a great day.

- Sorry for giving you pirate-itis.

- Olive has pirate-itis?! - Well, it would explain the eye patch.

- AH! - More and more

weird, piratey things are gonna start happening to her,

and unless we stop it before she goes full pirate,

she'll be a pirate forever.

- Please tell me you have a gadget to fix this.

- Oh, yeah, sure! Kind of.

Not really. No.

But I can build one! I... think. To the lab.

The lab's that way.

This is the unpirate-inator.

- Which can turn me back to normal?

- Correct. Except there's one tiny problem. Uh...

I only have the glove part.

- So we're missing...

a circle, a triangle, and a rectangle.

- No. We're missing a sphere,

a pyramid, and a rectangular prism.

- What? - Two-dimensional objects,

like a circle or a triangle

are flat, but we're looking for three-dimensional objects.

And three dimensions as in length, width,

but also depth.

- Kind of like this tissue box.

- Yeah. See, this isn't a rectangle;

it's a rectangular prism. It has length,

width, but it also has depth.

It goes back. - It doesn't matter.

Whatever dimension the parts are,

you don't have them. - Wait!

There's Odd Squad offices all over the world;

I'm sure another lab has the parts we need.

- Good one. Yeah, yeah, great. Haha!

- Guys, I'm not sure I'm gonna make it in time.

- Uh... I have an idea! But follow me.

- You're asking me to slow down Olive's pirate-itis?

I'm a doctor, not a miracle worker! - So you can't do it?

- Of course I can, I'm a doctor. - Oh, great. You stay here

while we go to the other Odd Squad offices. Come on.

- Don't worry, partner, we got this.

- OK. Let's see what we can do.

Open up and say, Aaah!

- HAAAARRR!

- No, I said, Say, Aaah!

- HAAAARRRR!

- I see what's happening here.

- O'Guire, send us to the Odd Squad in the next town over. - Actually, the next

town over is run by Agent Odie. He's kind of difficult. O'Guire,

send us to the next, next town over.

(beeping) - Preparing to squishinate!

- Squishinating!

(Odd Squad theme music)

- Oogensturf.

- Whoa! This looks a lot like our headquarters.

- No, it's totally different. Look at that poster.

Right, we've got to go this way.

O'Quinncy, we need your help.

- Oscar, what a surprise!

You know, I was just thinking the two of us

don't get to hang out enough. - We need a favor--

- You came to the right place. I'm a big fan of favors.

You know, some people even call me the Favor Captain!

Well, not out loud or anything,

but I just know. Except for this one guy

who wants to call me Super-fun Man, and I was like--

- (Otto and Oscar): O'Quinncy! - Oh, hey guys!

- Do you have the missing parts for this unpirate-inator?

- Let me see.

I don't have all the parts, but I think I have this circle.

- It's not a circle; it's a sphere.

It's a three-dimensional object and it's round like a ball. It can roll. Haha!

- Like this? - Yes!

- One down, two to go. Thank you so much.

- Oh, you bet. You know,

this reminds me of the last pirate-itis case I saw.

Huh, I'm gonna keep talking anyway.

It was o'clock on Tuesday.

(screaming like a monkey)

(cheerful musical ringtone)

- Yello? - [Oscar, this is me, Dr. O.]

I work with you at Odd Squad. We both have lab coats

and blond hair. That makes us sound like we're the same person

[but we're really not.] - What is it, Doctor?

- Olive's pirate-itis is getting worse.

- I have a beard now! - I have her feet soaking

in gravy, but that can only do so much.

- We'll hurry.

- OK, as long as there's no parrot, we'll be fine.

- Oh... You mean like this one?

- I will go get a cage for that and I'll get you some more gravy.

- OK, hurry, please. - (parrot): More gravy.

- Ortega.

- (Otto): Wow! Cats?

- Odelia! - Oscar.

Oscar's friend. - I'm trying to build

an unpirate-inator, but I'm missing parts.

- The part you need is in here. - Ah! Thanks, Odelia.

AH! - Haha! Snake in a can!

I got you!

- This isn't funny! My partner's turning into a pirate.

- I understand. Just hold on to this gadget

for a second.

Haha! Squirting gadget!

Hahaha! Classic! - How many more of these jokes

are we gonna have to go through before you actually help us?

- One more, but I'm gonna save it till the end.

(Oscar sighs.) Looks like you're missing

a pyramid and a rectangular prism.

- That's a pyramid. Haha!

One, two, three, four triangles.

And this face is a square.

- Two down, one to go. All that's left is a rectangular prism.

- Agent Odie has one. I saw it in his lab yesterday.

- No, no, no, no, no! Anybody but Odie! No, no, no!

- Oscar, please, for Olive.

(Oscar sighs.)

- Good luck, you two.

- AAAH! - Ha!

Hand buzzer. Classic!

- I gotta say I like you.

(braying like a donkey)

(cheerful musical ringtone)

- Yello. - [Oscar, it's me,]

Dr. O. I called you earlier on the phone. You answered me with your mouth.

- Yeah. What is it, Doctor? - There's not much time left.

Olive's shirt is getting frillier by the minute.

(pirate music)

- Harrr! And now I be speaking like this now!

- Oscar, what's next? - We're heading to Odie's lab

to get the last part we need. Tell Olive to meet us there.

- OK. Olive, meet them there.

(pirate music) - Yarrr! Thanks for ye help,

Dr. O.

(farting sound)

(bleating like a sheep) ♪♪♪

- Omakov! - Great poster!

- (men): Sound check.

(soft jazz music with clarinet playing)

- Odie! - AH!

- We need a rectangular prism. Do you have one?

- I do, but not for that pirate. - Harrr! Sorry I be late, guys.

- You don't understand. This pirate

is my partner! - No, not her.

I'm talking about the pirate thief: Oscar! He stole all my beautiful designs.

- You stole his gadget designs?! - No, no.

- No, worse than that: my hair designs.

Every... single...

haircut...

Oscar's ever had,

I had it first.

He stole every single one.

- Harrr! Oscar, how could ye?

- I admit, I stole his hair designs,

but it's only because I wanted to be more like you.

- Really? I thought it was because you didn't like me.

- Just the opposite, my friend. Just the opposite.

- Bring it in, you big lug. I'm so sorry I ever doubted you.

From a mathematical-- - GUYS!

Rectangular prism!

- Oh! - Oh yeah, sorry.

- Rectangular prism: it has length,

width, and also depth. Haha!

Haha!

It works! Alright. Now, Olive, just stay there

and I'll zap you out. - HAAARRR!

- Olive? - Ahoy,

ye scallywags! You'll never catch

the horrible Captain Olive!

- It's too late, she's gone full pirate! - Not yet!

Look at her pinky!

- Haaarrr! Ha-ha-harrr!

- Catch her!

(pirate music)

- (Otto): Why are there sheets and clothes everywhere?

- It's laundry day. Not every Odd Squad

has fancy washing machines. - (Olive): Haaarrr!

Haaarrr! (pirate music)

- Whoa! - Whoa!

- Gotcha!

- Whoa! - Ah!

- (Otto): Don't gotcha.

- Whoa! - Ah!

- Come on, Oscar! - You'll never catch me,

you landlubbers! - Olive, I know there's still

some good in your pinky finger! - Ha-ha-har!

Don't make me laugh! - Please help!

- Argh! Mutiny

on me starboard hand!

- Now!

Yah! - Thanks, guys!

Odie! - Ugh!

- Are you OK? - (Odie): I think so.

- (Olive, Otto, Oscar): Your hair!

- What? What?

Finally, a hairstyle of my very own. I love it!

- Congrats, Odie.

Grr... I must have it.

(Ding! Ding! Ding!)

Greetings, agents. The Odd Squad tube system

can whooosh you anywhere in the world.

But before you depart, here are some safety tips

to make sure your whooosh is a good one.

First up, insure all carry-on items

are securely fastened to your body.

Also, eating during liftoff is not allowed...

make sure your badge phone is turned off...

...and any other electronic devices you may be carrying.

Once positioned, you'll be squished into pods.

Many years ago, these pods were cube-shaped.

A cube is like a square, except it's made of six squares.

That's because it's -D.

It has height, width,

but also depth, so it's not flat.

And you can hold it,

like fuzzy dice or an ice cube

Ooh! It's chilly.

But now, they're sphere-shaped,

which makes for a lot smoother of a ride.

One final warning: make sure when you're leaving, no one else is arriving.

(whooshing) (agents moaning)

They'll be OK. (murmuring): No, they won't.

- Thank you for coming, Odd Squad. ♪♪♪ - There yo

- What seems to be the problem? - Well, I've been trying

to deliver this pizza, but every time I go inside...

You know, maybe I'll just show you. One sec.

(woman clears her throat.)

OK, just one second.

(Otto and Olive scream) Yah, it's been happening

for over an hour; this pizza's totally cold!

- What kind of pizza is it? - It's Hawaiian...

- There's your problem. This is a no-Hawaiian-pizza zone.

- What?! You know, they should really put up some signs or something.

- Not to worry. We have a classic-cheese-inator.

(woman gasping in delight) - One cheese pizza.

- Wow! - Try it now.

- h yeah, OK.

- A job well done, no?

(Otto and Olive scream.) I don't get it,

why didn't it work? - Oh! No, no, it totally worked! See? No pizza.

I just delivered it and then I came out the side door.

Thank you, Odd Squad. Yes!

(scream of unknown animal)

- Hey, guys, so we have a couple new gadgets for you.

Here is this snow-go-away-inator and here's a make-snow- disappear-inator.

- Wait! Aren't those two the same thing?

- No, no, no, no, no! This one has a handle.

Oh! And then we got this.

Uh-oh!

You have to listen to everything I'm about to tell you.

- Oscar, what's going on? - I just zapped myself with a couch-inator and I'm gonna

start turning into a couch. For example,

my legs are now a cushion. (Olive and Otto): AH!

- How do we stop it? - Well, there's good news.

There is a couch-uncouch-inator. And then, there's the bad news.

It's locked inside this briefcase.

Maybe it would make more sense to lock up the gadget

that turns you into the thing, instead of the gadget

that fixes you! - That's a very good point.

Now, I'd love to talk about this more,

except my fingers are now couch legs.

- (Otto and Olive): AH! - Then, there's more bad news.

I forgot the code to unlock the briefcase.

- (Otto and Olive): Oscar! - All I remember is that

the numbers add up to . - But there are many

combinations that add to . The code could be anything.

- Ah, there's more good news. I knew I was gonna forget the codes, so I hypnotized

three people and told each one one of the numbers.

- You can hypnotize people?

- Yah. - That is so cool.

- Who knows the numbers? - Dr. O, Orchid, and Obfusco.

What you have to do is clap your hands two times,

say "Couch alert", and they'll tell you the info. - Got it.

- Ooh, but wait! Make sure nobody finds out

that I'm turning into a couch, because if Ms. O--

- AH!

This is not the way I thought today was gonna go.

- I'll go find out the numbers; you guard the couch.

- What do you mean, "guard the couch"?

It's a couch, where is it gonna go?

Olive...

Oh no!

- Interesting. - Dr. O!

- Agent Olive, I'm right in the middle of playing doctor.

Except I'm not playing doctor, 'cause I'm an actual doctor.

- Oscar turned into a... a... I mean, uh, never mind

what Oscar turned into. I need the number he gave you to open his briefcase.

- I have no idea what you're talking about.

- Couch alert!

- If I have sick patients and I cure ,

how many sick patients do I have left?

(sigh) - Oscar hid the number

in a work problem? Why would he do that?

- The uncouch-inator is a very powerful gadget,

and Oscar believes that if it fell into the wrong hands--

- Never mind. Doctor, can I use your computer?

- I'm not really Dr. O right now but, yeah, sure, go for it.

Alright. Go through steps.

I wanna know how many sick patients she has left.

What do I know?

She started with sick patients.

And then she cured .

So got taken away.

That means subtraction.

So minus is...

, , , ,

, , , .

The answer is ! Yes!

I have to get back to Otto!

Um...

Uncouch alert!

- Ah, must have fallen asleep there for a second.

What's next?!

Oh, right. You're still here.

- (in low voice): Oscar.

Owen! What are you doing?

(Owen slurping noisily) - Relaxing.

Can you believe somebody just threw this thing out?

- We didn't, we left it right... I need it back.

- Oh, I see. The fancy-pants agents get a couch;

but not the security people.

- Is that a hole?! - I like to think of it

as a really bad stain I managed to get rid of.

- Owen, I need this couch back.

If you give it to me...

uh... I'll clean your monitors for a week.

- How about years? - How about weeks?

- Deal! - Thanks, Owen. You don't know

how important this couch is.

- Just watch out for the gum.

- Ughhh!

- .

Yes!

Oh! What happened to Oscar?

- Owen happened. - Good news:

I got one number. Just two more left to open the briefcase.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

This time, I'm going to get the numbers,

and you're staying here to guard the couch.

Trust me, it's way harder.

- What do you mean, "way harder"?

Oh no!

Oscar?

Couch?

♪♪♪

- Hey, Orchid.

You're Orchid! - Yes...

- Couch alert!

- If I have Centigurps and I give

to one Sherman and to another Sherman,

how many do I have left?

- That is so cool. - Oscar says, "Thanks."

- OK. Let's take this one step at a time.

(Ding!) What do I know so far?

- If I have Centigurps

Uncouch alert! - What happened?

- Look, Orchid, I know this might have been a little bit scary for you,

but you helped me out a whole lot today.

- Thanks, Otto. Now, I feel bad

for taking your socks without asking.

- How did you even get them off my feet?

- Hey, relax. I already gave you back your glasses.

We're finished here.

- Oksana?

What are you doing? - Adding some bling

to my couch to make it more me. - That's not your couch.

- Yes, it is. You can tell it is, because I have it.

- But I need it because... Well,

because I just need it. - I see.

You think agents deserve a couch more than the cafeteria workers?

Or should I say "worker"? There's really just one of me.

- No, that's not what I mean. (dramatic music)

Every department is important. We're all part

of one big family working together. Can you--?

AH!

Oh, what did you do?! - Pulled out the hideaway bed,

because your story is making me sleepy.

- Look, Oksana, what do I need to do to get this couch back?

- Help with today's dishes.

(Olive sighs.)

(honking)

- Come on, Oscar.

- What happened to Oscar? - Oksana.

- Good news: I have Orchid's number.

(beeping)

All that's left is Obfusco's number.

- We're going together and bringing the couch.

People will take anything around here if it's not nailed down.

- Neat! Free briefcase!

- Grab that too.

Thank you.

Careful, careful! OK!

Left a bit. Make an L! Come on, left!

- I'm doing it! (ripping sound)

I ripped Oscar! - Aaah...

Just be more careful! Let's go!

- Are you lifting at your end? - Of course I am!

(both grunting)

Careful!

- Why are we even going this way?

- It's a shortcut to Obfusco's office.

- Oh, you guys are looking for Obfusco.

- (Olive and Otto): Yes! - Too bad, just left for his vacation house on the Moon.

- How are we supposed to get the number to open this thing now?

- You two! Did you bring a couch into my headquarters?

Nobody gets a couch! I'm throwing this thing out!

- (Olive and Otto): No! - Ms. O, it's not ours;

it belongs in, um, the lab! - So now, the scientists

get a couch?! - I make food; that's science.

- It belongs in Security! - I make food;

that's security. - Look, it should belong

to the tube operators. - I make food;

that's tube operating.

- Um, that one was a stretch.

- Ms. O, I'm on my feet all day. - I'm on my feet all day...

- Why couldn't Oscar just tell us the number?

- He did! Oscar said all the numbers add up to .

- So? - So, if we add these two numbers,

we can find out how many more we need to reach .

The answer will be the last number.

- So, what's plus ?

- , , ,

, , ,

, .

Now, we just need to figure out how many numbers are

in-between and . , , ,

- (Olive and Otto): ! The answer is !

- It's decided, we'll split the couch into four pieces.

- Wait!

- (some agents): Oscar?! - Yeah,

I turned myself into a couch.

Ms. O, I deserve any punishment you think is right.

- It looks like you've been punished enough.

- We're still splitting it into four pieces though, right?

(roaring)

- Greetings, agents. Here at Odd Squad, we have many pets,

but one of my favorites is this little goldfish right here.

I like to call him Sir Fishalot. Haha!

But what's really important is that he's fed the right amount of food every day.

Feel him too little and this happens.

Yowsa!

Feed him too much and this happens.

What you can't tell here is that he's also yelling

really loud. So to avoid any further mistakes,

let's review how much this little guy eats.

Every day, he eats a total of eggplants.

This morning, I found . And this agent here

is on afternoon feeding duty. She has to figure out

how many more eggplants to feed him to get him to .

A quick way of doing this is to use a number line.

Here's the number . And to get to ,

we count these little tick marks, which each stand

for the number . , , , , , .

more eggplants to get to .

The word "more" often means to use addition. But wait,

before you feed him, remember that today is Wednesday.

On Wednesdays, he also eats meatballs.

How many meatballs do you ask? less than the total amount of eggplants.

The word "less" often means using subtraction.

You can use the number line to figure it out.

Here's what eggplants looks like,

and we need to find out less. So we subtract .

, , , , is .

meatballs

for Sir Fishalot! One more thing to keep in mind

when feeding the Odd Squad gold fish is to never ever,

under any circumstance look him directly into the eye.

If you do, you will explode.

Just kidding, he will.

And reappear.

And explode.

And reappear.

And explode. As you can see,

it makes it a lot more challenging for feeding.
