( humming )

( inhales deeply )

NARRATOR: Ever since Quack the duck and the pond fish met

they've become good neighbors...

swimming and playing together and learning about ducks.

Boo!

( fish cry out )

( laughing )

QUACK: Yeah, the sky is blue,

water is blue and ducks are blue.

( exhales, inhales deeply )

Yeah, do you see the pattern here, huh?

FISH: Wow!

NARRATOR: The fish loved Quack's tales

about the wondrous world up there.

FISH ( underwater ): Ahh!

Quack's telling fish stories again.

FISH ( underwater ): Oh!

NARRATOR: But for one fish,

just hearing about the world up there wasn't enough.

Ooh, ooh, me--

over here.

Ah, yes, you are... you have a question?

I want to go up there with you.

I want to bite an apple and sit in a tree.

( gasps )

You cannot go up there.

But...

Do you know what happens

to fish who leave the water?

But...

You can't sit in a tree.

Have you ever seen a fish in a tree?

Hmm...

I've never seen a tree.

Know why?

Because you're a fish.

Anybody here seen a tree?

Anybody want to see a tree

and all those other great things?

And I want to wear sneakers,

but we can't; we're fish.

( sighs )

Um... I'm sorry you can't go.

Mmm.

Hey!

What if you brought stuff down for me to see?

Well, I don't... um...

All right, yeah.

It's the least a duck can do.

( giggles )

( grunts )

Would this be interesting to fish?

There's a question I've never asked myself.

I think so.

( chuckles )

NARRATOR: Quack searched for other things to show the fish.

( snoring )

( laughing )

( grunting )

( snoring )

Hmm?

Mmm.

NARRATOR: He sent the best stuff down.

That brown thing is a potato.

( gasps )

It all went well, until the apple.

Hmph!

( chuckles )

( Quack humming )

NARRATOR: The sponge floated at first...

but then it filled with water and sank.

May I keep all this?

I want to start a fish museum

of things from up there, for all fish to enjoy.

Sure, hmm, but if, uh, this is a museum,

you've got to have an acorn.

Hmm.

Where's the best place for it?

How about... right... oh, I don't know... there.

Hey, did you eat it?

( gasps )

There it is.

Okay, ready?

Now take a deep breath.

( inhales deeply )

This is the Peep I told you about.

( Peep moans )

( gasps )

He's not for the museum.

He's just saying hello.

Hello.

This is going to be the best fish museum

of things from up there in the whole pond.

One more thing you need-- balloons.

Every grand opening has them.

What's a balloons?

You'll see; you're going to love it!

( kids laughing in distance, party horns blaring )

( sighs )

Oh, no, no, no, no.

You have to sink.

Start sinking... now.

( grunts, quacks )

Hmm.

( grunts )

( cries out )

( grunting )

( gasps )

It's like a beautiful bubble that never goes away.

I'll put it right here at the start of the museum.

( gasps )

I'll get it.

Whoa!

Whoa!

( gasps )

Are... are you all right?

I was up there.

I was really up there!

It was so great.

Perfect.

This is going to be the best thing

in the whole museum.

( grunting )

It's no good.

There's no way to hold it down.

Will you hold it for me?

Um...

okay.

It's the least a duck can do.

Oh!

( laughing )

NARRATOR: And so the Fish Museum of Things from Up There opened

and all the fish were amazed.

It's like a dream come true.

But the most popular exhibit was Quack and the balloon.

You've sat in a tree.

You've worn a sneaker.

Now see what it's really like up there.

Yeah.

Ready.

Whoo-hoo!

ALL: Wow!

Whoo-hoo!

BOTH: Hmm.

Can we please keep walking?

There are some things I want to remain a mystery.

Whee!

BOY: That's Solmera, me and Emma.

We're making boats out of old containers.

This is one of Emma's boats.

EMMA: This is how I make

the boat sink.

I press it down and, like, all the water comes in

and it will, like, sink.

BOY: My boat will never sink

because it has no openings in it.

Water can't get into my boat.

Oh! Oh, man, that's freezing.

This is a boat made with just a bottle.

Whoa.

EMMA: We can turn this

into a submarine

and we can make it sink by taking off the cap

and filling the water in it.

Put the cap back on.

There's still not that much water in there.

I don't care; my hands are freezing.

BOY: With water in it, the boat sank a little, but not all the way.

We're putting some walnuts that we found

in Emma's milk-bottle boat.

EMMA: These are not working

because this outside, it has a little life jacket

so it can float.

But these rocks don't, so it's going to push it down.

BOY: The rock made the boat sink very fast.

EMMA: Oh, no!

One rock.

BOY: Try making boats that float and sink.

NARRATOR: One evening, before going to bed,

Peep watched the sun go down.

The whole world seemed to sigh and get ready for sleep.

( yawns )

( Squeak chattering )

( rustling )

Hmm... Squeak.

Oh!

What are you doing?

I'm going to bed.

( yawns )

Aren't you going to bed?

"Bed"? Please!

I've got things to do,

places to go, mice to meet.

But it's nighttime.

Nothing happens at night.

Peep, everything happens at night.

Look, the moon, the stars,

the moth, mice, raccoons, skunks.

And just listen to those crickets!

( crickets chirping )

Can I come with you, Squeak?

I want to see all those things!

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

Do you know what it takes

to be a night creature?

You must be brave, fearless, cool, calm...

( dog barks in distance )

What was that?!

What was what?

Sorry, Peep,

got to go!

NARRATOR: But Peep, being Peep,

just couldn't take "no, no, no, no, no" for an answer.

So he followed Squeak out into the night.

It wasn't easy; Squeak was fast

and Peep wasn't used to running in the dark.

( sniffing )

Whoa... oh!

( sighs )

Squeak?

Hmm...

NARRATOR: Before he knew it, Peep was alone...

in the woods... in the dark.

( trembling )

It's okay...

I'm brave...

I'm fearless.

( dog barking in distance )

( Peep screams )

( crickets chirp as other creatures call )

( sighs )

( buzzing )

Oh...

( buzzing increasing )

NARRATOR: Peep had never seen anything so enchanting as fireflies.

They led him up and down, here and there...

( Peep laughing )

and deeper into the woods.

( grunts )

( sighs )

( yells )

I'm just...

( grunts )

having a hard time seeing.

What are you?

I'm a snail,

and I don't see well, either.

I prefer to feel my way around.

Feel your way?

Like this?

Oh...

Ew...

That's just my slime trail.

You'll get used to it.

Hmm?

( squeaking above )

( squeaking )

( yells )

( yelling )

( grunting )

What was that?

NARRATOR: That was bats.

Hey!

"Hey," yourself. ( cries out )

You almost ran into me.

Naw, I don't run into anything

I don't want to.

But you, you are the bump-into king.

How many wings do I have?

( gasps )

Hmm...

Just as I thought,

can't see in the dark.

If you can see so well,

you must know where I am.

Can you tell me how to get home?

Bats don't see in the dark,

we use sound, my friend.

Listen for something that sounds like home

and follow it.

Good luck, little guy.

( crickets chirping )

Hmm...

( crickets chirping )

Hmm?

Crickets, I hear crickets.

I heard them right by my house.

Hmm...

Hello?

Cricket?

( croaks )

( Peep screams )

( screaming )

Oh.

What?! What is it?!

It's, it's...

Peep?

Squeak!

What are you doing?

I wanted to see what the nightlife was like

so I followed you.

Peep,

do you know what's out here at night?

Crawling things...

creeping things...

flying things...

Bats.

"Bats"?

Bats are nothing.

I'm talking about the scariest thing

to come out of the sky,

the hugest, most frightful...

( owl hoots )

Shh! That's it.

But that's Hoot.

Hi, Hoot!

Peep, no!

What are you doing?!

Stop! Stop!

Mayday! Mayday!

( screams )

Hoot,

I am so glad to see you!

Peep, what on earth are you doing up at this hour?

I saw the night come

and it was so beautiful,

and I just wasn't sleepy at all.

( yawns )

I'm glad you think the night is lovely;

but now you're very tired.

Yes.

And you're shivering.

No,

that's not me, it's, um...

( stuttering ): Hi... Madam... Hoot.

Ahh, our little friend Squeak.

( screams )

Are you well this evening, Squeak?

Oh, yes, ma'am,

and we'd love to stay and chat,

but I have got to get this bird home.

Oh, yes, ma'am,

straight home, right away.

Mm-hmm, here we go.

Hurry up.

We're going home, mm-hmm.

Quite right.

Good night, little ones.

NARRATOR: Squeak did deliver Peep to his can,

though Peep hardly knew it.

( sighs )

( snoring )

Oh!

NARRATOR: His nighttime adventure over, Peep slept...

( snoring )

and slept.

Rise and shine!

The early bird gets the...

Hey, Peep, wake up!

It's morning-- sun, sky.

Get up!

( Quack grunting )

( snoring )

Peep...

( snoring )

Look at that--

sound asleep, wasting the day.

Not like me, I never sleep--

too much to do.

If you were a duck, you'd understand that, Peep.

The, uh, ( yawns ) responsibility...

Could you move a little?

Yeah, okay.

Uh, where was I?

Oh, yes, uh... ( yawns )

Ducks-- where would we be without...

( snoring )

BOY: Vuthy and I are setting up an old blanket

so we can lay down on the ground.

It's nighttime, and we can hear crickets

and a dog barking.

There's the Moon.

VUTHY: It looks like a white ball up in the sky

or a giant cookie.

To me it looks like a giant cookie with craters.

And it looks like a white basketball up in the sky.

Someone's trying to sh**t into a basketball hoop.

BOY: Now we are looking at all the stars.

( muttering )

Vuthy is counting the stars.

stars.

Vuthy counted ,

but really, there's, like, more than a million stars.

VUTHY: Like ?

No, much more... Infinity and two?

One... one billion, trillion, million

hundred, one, two thousand and fifty stars in the sky.

BOY: We can see shapes in the stars.

I'm playing connect-the-dots with my mind.

I see a triangle.

If you really think about it,

it does look quite a lot like a triangle.

The stars make shapes.

It's kind of like a pattern.

I see a crystal.

It's just like connect-the-dots.

They could make a rectangle... or a lion.

BOY: Take a look at the night sky and see what you can see.
