How, what, where, why? What, where, why?
How, what, where, why? What, where, why?
Ada Twist, scientist
She's gonna find out what the answer is
Under here, over there
Science is everywhere you look
I'm Iggy Peck, architect
And I'm Rosie Revere, engineer
-Technology, that's me, Benny B.!
-A mystery, riddle, puzzle, or quest
There are wonders to discover
Hypotheses to test
-Science is the best!
-Ada Twist, scientist
I'm gonna find out what the answer is
Everywhere science is
She's forming a hypothesis
Connecting polka dots
This is scientist, Ada Twist!
"The Rubbish Raker."
-Oh, come on!
-Are they here yet?
Patience. Your friends will be here soon.
-Hiya!
-Hi, Ada.
-Yay!
-Hey, everybody!
We got your message.
What did you want us to see?
-Is it goblins?
-Or aliens?
Or alien goblins?
Not quite. It's…
a monster!
-Shocked-face emoji!
-"Monster"?
-Finally!
-A monster, huh?
Saw it when coming home
from tennis practice yesterday.
Maybe we should move back to the island.
It's a monster marvel.
We've gotta study it up close.
But not too up close, right?
And definitely not personal.
Don't worry, it's probably not too…
Whoa, what is that?
I mean it's going to be fine, buddy.
Yeah, it's okay.
We'll take a peek at the creek
from a safe distance using… this!
-Wow!
-Fab!
Ada made a monster hunter.
But we'll need help.
Definitely. Are you with us?
Well, I am a monster expert
who speaks monster.
I can pilot the boat.
I could make whale noises
to calm the creature down.
Yeah. We're with you.
For science!
While you kids wrangle a monster,
we'll work up a sweat.
-Who's ready for bootcamp?!
-Oh, I stay ready.
You might not recognise me later
with my massive muscles. Look at this.
-Swole patrol in the house?
-You said it.
Okay. You haven't
worked out in a long time.
Start with small, consistent steps
if you want to see big changes.
"Small, consistent steps."
We'll exercise over here.
But if you need us, just shout.
Beck and I will be fishing over there.
-Let's go meet a monster!
-Yeah!
Whoa!
Monster hunting mode, activate.
Scooch it to the left. Your other left.
Whale calls keep me calm.
They might work on the monster.
Soon, we'll see the majestic
creek monster in its native habitat.
-Hopefully, it's not feeding time.
-Feeding time?
Why tell me about feeding time?
We're so close.
Creature contact in three, two, one…
-Oh, come on!
-What?!
-Not a monster.
-Fascinating.
The monster is just waste?
How did this rubbish get here?
You know how you can
recycle some waste, but not all?
Mum and I put them in different bins.
Waste you can't recycle normally
goes to landfills.
Sometimes people get sloppy
and it ends up in places it shouldn't,
like our creek.
Sometimes rubbish trucks spill waste
because people don't replace old bins.
Rain washes loose waste
into storm drains. It's a system fail.
Dirty water from creeks
and storm drains ends up in the ocean.
That's bad for fish and humans.
People can hurt the planet,
even if they don't mean to.
This is a giganti-normous problem.
We've got to do something.
Right. We want
to help the planet, not hurt it.
-Looks like a job for the Green Team.
-Yeah!
-Join the Green Team!
-Earth is ours, let's keep it clean
-From the mountains to the sea
-And everything in between
Join the Green Team!
Teamwork makes the green work
Takes the whole community
To work as one to save the world
There is no Planet B
Let's clean the oceans and the air
Earth is for us all to share
Join the Green Team!
I've got three words.
Crawfish clean-up crew.
Those creatures like eating waste.
I've been doing
a lot of eco-research lately.
Crawfish eat ocean waste, not human.
We could design a giant vacuum cleaner.
What if it glitches and sucks up the park?
I didn't think about that.
What if we transform your vacuum design
into a sanitation submarine?
Sounds sub-tacular. I don't think
the creek is deep enough to go that far.
You're right. It's way too shallow to sub.
I've got it. Instead, we turn our boat
into a waste-trapping machine.
We could design jaws
to rake up the garbage.
It'll need a holding tray for waste.
-We could call it The Rubbish Raker.
-Yeah!
-Love it!
-Perfect!
Okay, here's the design
of the scooper jaws.
Looking good.
-We should make the jaws bigger.
-We've gotta rake up huge chunks of waste.
-Go big or go home.
-Good points!
-Let's get this Raker going.
-Let's go!
Come on, Twist. You're the swole patrol…
Miss Sugar Pie says it's easy.
She's in better shape than I am.
My muscles are done for today.
I'm going fishing.
Voilà! The Rubbish Raker.
-An aquatic rubbish truck.
-A lean, mean, creek-cleaning machine.
With jaws for junk,
waste tanks and planet-saving power.
That's fierce!
-We did it, kids!
-Whoa.
I've got eyes on the rubbish.
One supersized bite coming up.
-Awesome!
-Yes.
Are the jaws supposed to
wiggle-wobble like that?
-What's happening?
-Bother!
-Is this game over?
-Oh no!
The Raker bit off more than it could chew.
Maybe this was too big for us to solve.
I give up
I can't do it, going to quit
Can't get through it, hit a wall
It's impossible
When all I see are obstacles
Afraid I'm going to fail, so I quit
There's no use in trying
There's no way that we can win
Don't give up, don't give in
Got to get right back up and try again
Mistakes can be lucky breaks
A happy accident along the way
Don't give up, don't give in
Maybe you'll make failure your best friend
And try, try, try
Got to get up and try again
It's okay. We tried our best.
Big changes don't happen overnight.
-Mum said something like that.
-Yeah, "Small, consistent steps."
I just connected the polka dots.
Maybe we need to
solve the problem into smaller bites.
Cleaning the creek in chunks
will take forever!
Scientists have to be patient.
-Let's fish the Raker out of the creek.
-Yeah!
-This is my kind of workout.
-Can I borrow your rod?
Okay. Operation Rescue the Raker
was a success.
We need to figure out
how much waste it can hold.
Loading the lab.
-How do we keep our boat afloat?
-Let's see.
According to my research,
we need to look at the Raker's density.
I predict the Rubbish Raker's destiny is
to clean up the creek.
"Density," not "destiny." That's
how much stuff is in a space.
If there was a ton of people in here,
it'd be super dense.
Yeah, pretty dense.
If there aren't a ton of people
in the same space, it's less dense.
Got it! A rock has high density
because it's heavy and small?
Like my pet rock, Chippy?
And a fluffy pillow has low density
because it's light and big?
Exactly!
Now watch this.
Can you add extra weight to the tray?
Things that are denser than water sink.
Things less dense than water float.
Makes sense.
We added too much extra weight.
The boat is denser than the water,
so it sank.
We just cracked the code.
Now we know what not to do,
what's our plan?
Run weight tests until we get
our Rubbish Raker right.
-Let's go, Green Team!
-Yeah!
Rubbish Raker's online.
-Oh, man. I hope this works.
Cross your fingers and toes.
-Success!
-Great workout, everybody.
-Hey!
-Don't worry. You'll get there.
I learned my lesson.
Small, consistent steps.
We learned that too.
Wow! Look! It's raking up all the rubbish!
I'm glad it's not a real monster.
I mean, of course.
Did you little bean sprouts do this?
We sure did!
I'm a big bean sprout. But yeah, we did.
In a couple of weeks, we'll come back
and see how much was raked up.
Go, team!
Can't wait to see the creek. Race you!
-Nice!
-We really made a huge difference.
Yeah.
And your mum made some
super cool stuff out of all that waste.
My mum's a great artist.
These monster statues are the business!
When a real monster shows up,
they'll have a squeaky-clean creek.
Who's ready to trap some trash?
-You know I am.
-It's go time!
