together hey have you and someone else

ever worked together as a

team me and my friends were cleaning up

a

backyard and we worked as a team and we

all did different jobs

and it worked out real good in my family

everybody helps out around the house at

church we um pick up the chairs together

and we work as a team to help each other

up and put the chairs

back I had to play football with my

friends cuz I can't play it by myself I

had a soccer game and I was always

taking the ball out on my own but my

friends said that since the guys on the

other team were taking the ball away

from me I needed teamwork

so during the halftime break they taught

me how to do good passes and in the end

we won the

game that's what I thought teamwork was

all about well I better catch up to him

Leon can't do it without me and there's

no telling how many Clues are out there

wish us

luck many

luck

finally all eyes are on the young pup as

he dribbles down the court he prepares

to sh**t 1 2

3 he scores The Crowd Goes Wild for the

young

pup

[Applause]

oh it's a

time I don't know about you Sizzle but

I'm starting to get hungry and this is

starting to look good a maybe it is time

for a little snack

[Music]

yeah now let's see here h

aha the top of a table it's a

clue Ben that's a line huh oh uh

brilliant my dear Leon you've done it

again but Leon look at all the Ben

please but Leah look then I have a

feeling I'm about to find a clue yes of

Ben's hand brilliant my dear Leon you've

done it okay that's it Ben I'm the

detective not

you but but Leon why are you mad at me

I'm I'm just trying to help you oh no

Ben you are not helping you Ben are

fired you're

fired

what what but but but Leon we're

supposed to be a te team we're supposed

to work together you know help each

other out and you heard me turn in your

hat you don't know how to help

hm well fine fine here here's your Clues

the Hat you want the hat

back here's the Hat you don't have to

fire me Leon I

quit h fine needs

it Bo I could really use a little catnap

about now yeah I hear you

Sizzle a little snooze somewhere warm

and cozy and yeah close by yeah like uh

like right here maybe

not maybe it's better as a tent than a

lunch tray none of that fruit was real

anyway I mean fun to chew on and all but

uh not much on Flavor oh yeah I mean

when it comes to the whole fake fruit

thing I always say what's the point you

know what's the point

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

H aha no no so you haven't seen anything

unusual um

yeah no no so you haven't seen any hats

fabulous or otherwise

oh

no this is too much I can't question

people and find Clues

too

but actually Ben was pretty good at clue

finding H maybe I need some advice from

an

expert

H weebus please call the chief of the

Acme detective

agency maybe she's in Haiti or per

chance in

France yes Acme crimet this is a chief

uh hi Chief um I mean M Chief Madam

chief chief will do gotcha well Chief my

name's Leon and I'm trying to solve a

mystery but it's not going too well it's

hard doing everything I see well have

you gotten any help uh help well yeah

kind of my friend Ben was supposed to

help but I had to keep telling him that

I was the detective right wrong Leon

different people are good at doing

different jobs while one person's an

expert at finding Clues another might be

a master of asking the right questions H

hey I'm really good at asking questions

that's what I was doing while Ben was

running around finding Clues but neither

one of you can do both jobs well that's

why you need to help each other it's

called teamwork oh I remember my first

case the case of the stolen case of

chocolate I thought I could solve it all

by myself I questioned everyone at the

Chocolate Factory and realized the candy

was stolen by none other than Grand

larsy the world's oldest candy Thief but

I couldn't find a single clue I needed

help from another detective and I called

one just in time who was it I just told

you just in time an expert at finding

the right Clues and he was able to find

this a

sock but no it's not just a sock a half

knitted sock someone was too busy

stealing candy to finish it so together

Justin and I followed the trail of yarn

straight to Granny's Hideout Case Closed

wow you see Leon we're more than just a

detective agency we're a team always

ready to help one another so since

you're the master at questioning and

Ben's an expert at finding Clues I

suggest you find him and get back to

work right Chief and thanks good luck

Leon remember the Acme triangle of

Excellence this vigilance dedication

courage

bye wow she's right I was all wrong

about teamwork and I do need Ben's help

I got to find him there's no time to

lose

B

Benny no the Ben

Meister um look when you're done with

that we still have a mystery to

solve what do you mean we Leon you fired

me

remember uh yeah that

um

Ben I was wrong you really were helping

me you were doing stuff I couldn't do

and I still need your

help I'm sorry I got mad and I'm sorry I

fired you and said you couldn't help me

anymore okay

here Leon a team isn't one person it's

people who want to get the job

done together that's why I was helping

you you're right Ben and the most

important thing now is to solve this

mystery

together okay hey all right a team

again what got a pair you and me we're a

team

equally if he needs help I lend a hand

we can do anything I know that we can

cuz working together is twice as much

fun yes two heads are better than

one better than

one two heads are better than

one better than

one two heads are better we're a double

header two heads are better we'll do it

together yes two heads are better than
