puzzling here but I think Edgar and Cynthia are onto someone there come out
please come out we think we can talk to you now oh please phooey no one's coming and the door
won't open I'm sure she would have helped us well at least we have a clue now yeah but
it's not enough it's not enough to solve the mystery I want to know what the others have found hey I'm sure there's a
clue of this if only I could figure it out but all this thinking makes me so
sleepy maybe if I could just let go for a while and rest maybe I'll have an
inspiration now now mr. Kristo let's
take it fast a nice fast walk is just the thing Oh dr. Bell whoa is be I'm
feeling so well I just might recover oh now now mr. Kristo please worry a nice
fast walk like this should make you worse in no time baby I am feeling a bit sick oh wait what
isn't that it doesn't sound like snoring look now who isn't that are you asleep
no I'm awake hmm then you must be dreaming huh how could I be there their
ever mind tell us who you aren't but how can i I
can only tell you who I am why mr. Kristo I don't understand him he
must be a familiar yes I think you're wrong and familiars are of
found let's see if we can unhelpful me I
don't get it but I'm fine I guess how are you I'm getting worse thank you
soon I should be really sick worse oh I'm sorry I didn't know sorry do you
want me to be well sure I do dr. Bell this is an outrage he wants me to be
well but why not I was only trying to be friendly friendly with us but we haven't
done anything right friends indeed I'm going to tell everybody and they'll come

Oh hurt hurt you be glad oh no what will
they do to me and I was just beginning to figure out a clue hi Willy Oh am I
glad to see you guys hello everybody just in time they coming after me
they'll come after all of us they don't understand but we have a clue so do we I
think I have one toe I just hope it's not too late you've got to put our heads together fast listen to what we found
out our words and their words are backwards from each other that's why we couldn't understand them before they say
lost when we mean found familiars means strangers that's sort of like our clue
only ours is about how they move all their gestures are just the opposite of
ours we're all backwards from each other they waved goodbye to say hello instead
of shaking hands they make a fist and when we make a peace sign to them they think it means w*r then my clue makes
sense I found out our feelings were the same we all meant well but everything we said
and did came out wrong now I know why sure they want to be friends too
it's just our words and gestures that keep tripping us up but now that we know the reason we
should be able to talk to them if we could try to understand them we could become friends with them and if we can
talk together we can solve the mystery of this room and find our way back to ask oh okay everybody keep your heads
here they come
[Music]
start noise that must mean stop
silence we are your your enemies we want
you to be enemies with us see we'll be tying them that were friends where we've
found where we are familiars to here we
need your your heart he remembers what you said he's telling them that we're
lost we're strangers and need help are you telling the lie are you truly
enemies that is right oh I mean wrong that is wrong then we will be your
enemies too we will all try to harm you Hey they want to be our friends I knew
there were nice people but we just couldn't understand each other yes but can they show us how to
find the door to a disco that's what I'd like to know to be
continued next time the vanishing door
[Music]
[Music]
1941 the Second World w*r has been raging in Europe for two years then on December 7th Japan forces the United
States to enter World w*r two with an attack on Pearl Harbor almost immediately all Asians of
Japanese ancestry are looked upon with suspicion even japanese-americans born in this country we were called nice A's
which means that our parents first generation was born in Japan but nice
A's were born here in the United States and one day conscious soldiers came and
told us that we had to leave home and they came and took us to a big camp with
barbed wires around it and towers machine g*ns on top of the towers I went tried to join the army and but
the man they had told me that
japanese-americans could not join because we were the enemy of course I
was very mad and angry it's about the whole thing
yes but around six months later though the army came and asked us if we want to
join the army to fight Ren France and I realized that here was a chance to prove
that I was a real American and not the enemy so I joined the 442nd Regimental
Combat Team we trained in Mississippi for one year and then we went to Italy
to fight and then later we went to France while we were in France our
outfit was told to go to rescue right there around three hundred and fifty men
who were trapped in the woods these men would call the lost battalion that they were
only two miles away every foot of the way was trees big trees and you can see
daylight the Germans would sh**t shells but it would hit the trees and the shell
would explode and and all of the steel would come down and that's why many of
our men were wounded and k*lled we did rescue these 350 Americans and trying to
prove that we were our 200 percent Americans we suffered I believe the most
casualties that means wounded or k*lled of any Regiment in world w*r ii the army
says that we've won more decorations more medals than any Regiment in the
history of American army I hope that what happened to the Japanese people
will never happen again to any Asian or any other people white or black or
Spanish people that they will just will never happen again in the United States
where they have to put people into camps [Music]
why don't you make a new friend make a new friend make a new friend today why
don't you make a new friend make a move then make a new friend today
mrs. tani her great grandparents were born in Japan this is Julia her family
came from China a long time ago Julia and tani both have ancestors from
Asia have you ever noticed when people
are strangers to you they tend to look all the same but it really depends on
who's looking if you haven't met very
many children whose parents came from an Asian country they may look alike to you but if you have friends who are Japanese
American or Chinese American or if you are Asian American then you probably can
see some differences let's see if you can will show two kids at a time the
child of Japanese background will always be on the same side of the screen the child of Chinese background will be on
the other hard to tell isn't it well the
Japanese children were always on the left and the Chinese children were on the right long ago all Asians lived in
the same part of the world that's why they share some similarities but now
after thousands of years Asians live all over the world sharing qualities with all other people perhaps
the reason that people seem to look alike is that we just don't know them once you get to know someone they become
special to you and then you can't mistake them for anyone [Music]
- doggy it's the retelling time once upon a time
knows a great ruler named Duke rule Duke mu was an unusual ruler four others were
concerned with battles and power Duke mu was more known as an admirer of poets
painters and particularly as a keen lover of horses it was said that he had
the most beautiful horses in the entire country perhaps even the world
I am polo I am both Duke boos beloved
friend and chief groom as a result many envied me and many are jealous of me and
none more so than Wang h* the Chief Minister because we are at peace and
never troubled with w*r my angle spends most of his time totaling the monthly
bills for the food the horses eat he does not think this work is important so
he grows more jealous of me every day he
whispers throughout the court that my eyesight is fading
sadly it is true what he says I once was a skilled horseman
[Music]
but now I am old and my eyesight is
failing even deuk-gu has noticed we
often sit together on the Dukes favorite Terrace a place of quiet and calm we
talk we play chess it was just such an
evening that the story begins
their eyes on the board but your heart is elsewhere what is your thought old
friend dear Paulo long hose thinks it is
time you retired my beard is whiter than formerly you have served me faithfully
and I confess it it grieves me to send a man of your years on such weary journeys
throughout the provinces is there any member of your family whom I might send
to look for horses in your place post of chief groom in your court is one of
Honor you have made itself I do not know
where I shall find so good a husband again please advise me it is difficult
a good horse can be tipped by as general building appearance but the mark of a
superlative honest one that raises no dust and leaves no tracks that mark is
fleeting as elusive s few eyes can
remark it that I know my son's good and
honorable men but they have not the eye that you require there is a boy named
Hancock I do not know him no he he's a son of a
poor man he helps his father Hawk fuel and vegetables and once a week he brings
fuel to the grooms I have observed him observing horses son of a fuel oh he he
is a boy with no breeding or education but when it comes to matters of horses I
judge him to be my equal I thank you certified the son of a pure
more godly the post of chief groom has always been chosen from those families
who have served in the Duke sport for generations you asked me to advise you
I'm thinking only the honor of the stables you blundered badly in that play
I fear you would have to forfeit apiece and with the loss of such a valuable
piece I suspect you certainly lose the game good night old friend
the boys name is Anton when wonho heard
of my advice to the Duke he was puzzled why should I recommend a rough country
boy for the job of chief groom why not Wan whose nephew instead as it
happens I have a nephew who though a young man of w*r Sears talents does take
an interest in horses would this be the young man who sold the fine horse to my
cousin the same yes he sold the horse at a very considerable profit with the
profit my nephew was able to build for himself a bathing pavilion in which he has both hot and cold running water
indeed [Music]
long haul saw his chance if he could convince the dupe to choose his nephew
as chief fool that he want all he would have great power one who pointed out how
clever his nephew was and above all how well he managed money well my nephew for
all his interest in horses is a practical man it is my belief that a
great deal of money could be saved in the management of the stables poor law is a good enough good no doubt
but he spends gold outrageously bill is
amiss to the treasurer are disgrace perhaps polo is more interested in the
well-being of the horses than in gold there are two kinds of people those who
ask what is the value and those who care nothing for value and ask only what is
the price I think I know what kind your nephew is let us see what sort this boy
and God may prove to be remember how much something costs does not always
tell us what it is truly worth
[Music] uncon was a country boy with country
manners he was awkward and ill-at-ease when I brought him into the Dukes presence
[Music]
the boys stared at the floor at the mention of horses the boy lifted his
head I will choose your horses it seems that polo has brought not only
a raw boy but a bracket as well shall I begin at once be patient on card the
post of chief groom is not easily deserved you have seen the horses in the
Imperial stables have you not what do you think of them I should be surprised
did they are not the finest in the land I welcome you a good opinion but of
course a man with half an eye can walk it to the Imperial stables and know that he is among great horses indeed in a
country stable where the horses are untrained ungroomed our young friend may
find it very difficult to single out the exceptional horse and perhaps on the
other hand a country boy may not be as put off by rough appearances as our
elegant chief minister might be however
you shall have a chance to prove yourself choose for me one horse and we
shall speak again
surely you do not imagine that it will be believed in the provinces that this
country boy has been sent to choose a horse for the Imperial stables I have foreseen that problem you will travel
with the boy and you will explain my commission to the provinces and you will
see that he is accorded full respect and do whatever is need full to assist him
me assist him why can I pull or travel
with the boy polo would be only too glad to go I'm
asking you to go chiefly in order to spare you a troublesome question of
question yes I would imagine that if polo were to go upon their return you
would ask but is the horse they have brought the Duke the boys choice poor
polos choice uh-huh that is very clever of you it is not that I do not trust
polo it is only that I do not trust you not to ask that question
[Music] and so Hong Kong and Wang go set out
other long journey they travelled through mountains through valleys new
streams a story of the superlative horse continues next time
[Music]
I'm saying hello the way it's said in Mexico I've got a mexican-american treat
called baked banana that can't be beat mexican-americans live all around the
United States in both city and town but mostly in and around the southwest where
their food is some of the very best we need eight banana and lemon juice to
remove the skins first that's easy to do [Music] business the whole banana in 11 juice
now wrinkle with sugar but don't you think that we're through
you've gotta put the banana back in the skin that's the truth [Music]
now we wrap them in foil are you listening to me get a grown-up to help
you yes sir read because we'll be baking [Music]
half an hour 350 degrees you can take a shower play with your settle down we shouldn't have
any trouble with this next battery it's a girl and she wears glasses I heard
what you said hardcore I can't see well without my glasses but I can see very
well [Music]
[Music]
[Laughter]
[Music]
[Music]
and now today's adventure of outerscope 1 the vanishing door now we have it all
worked out everything in this place is backwards and you even have to talk that
way - are you telling the lie are you truly enemies that is right I mean wrong
that is wrong then we will be your enemies - we will all try to harm you I
knew there were nice people but we just couldn't understand each other but can
they show us how to find the door to add a scope that's what I'd like to know now
we are enemies tell us thank you where you aren't from we are we aren't from Earth wait I know
of Earth Hey she knows about Earth hooray and see see you still understand
us yes earth children I do understand you and I know Earth is way way out
there where are we now this is back olan back
island is on the other side of your universe the opposite side the opposite
side no wonder we're backwards from each other it explains all kinds of things
see then dark corridor we traveled through what's connect our universe tobacco land but Eleanor I stood and
understand what this room is I don't either let's ask uh people of backlund
uh back Landers oh we have a question oops I mean an answer that's alright
friend I know how to speak your language it will be easier for you if we all
speak your way back a Landers the earth language is not hard to speak just turn
everything around let us try to talk their way to our new friends oh thank you well my question is
what is this room this room where we are
right now oh yes this is our outside and all those
doors lead to the inside parts of Backlund all except one
the mysterious door the one that leads to the dark corridor and outer scope one
soon will be able to leave of back Olander's back Olander's we are looking
for a special door the door that leads to our universe we desperately need to
find it why they are looking for a door to the outside beyond the outside a door
to their universe but I never heard of this door there are many doors but not that door
there is the door to the Train the door to the supermarket to school to the
office but no door to the outside beyond the outside there must be a door back
olan displeased think we know there's a door we pass through it it must be
somewhere wait I remember he is right there is a door I saw it once Oh
tell us tell us where it is I don't know I don't know I don't know either well I
saw this door long long ago I was outside working in my garden it began to
grow dark very dark and that is strange because it is never dark here never
yes go on it was so dark I could hardly see there was a terrible storm a huge
wind it grew darker and darker then all of a sudden I saw it the door who saw
the door yes it was the door the wind
blew it open I had never seen it before but there it was wide open and I caught
a glimpse a quick glimpse of the outside beyond the outside then the door slammed
this all happened so long ago that I had forgotten about it but where is the door
when the door slammed it suddenly became lighter and the door disappeared
it became invisible I never saw it again I searched the wall ride seen it but I
could not find it oh no it vanished we'll never get out wait don't give up
he gave us a clue we'll find the door yet how can we it's invisible but we can
make it visible what are we gonna use magic no something better listen this is
bacala right where everything's opposite so that means light and dark are
opposite too right right so if we paid a dog we should be able to see the door I
guess so but how with this the flashlight I remember you took with
you from outer scope but flashlights make things bright not a backlight I bet
sir about where was a door somewhere over there
okay here goes oh I hope it works
you were right it does make things dark
there it is the door we found the door hooray but how will we open it we can't
open any of the doors here Oh No we'll never get out now now don't cry don't
cry I understand your problem but here in battle and we close doors to open
them you close doors yes we do and I shall close this door

before we reached the North Pole Wow 18 years the Fermata a genius for a hundred years we were
determined to be the first men to walk on top of the world commander Robert II Perry was leader and organizer of the
expedition I worked with the Eskimos and was responsible for everybody's safety
at times I thought we wouldn't make it there were days when it was sixty
degrees below zero and we had to worry about freezing as we travel towards the North Pole we
had to build camps and store food for our return trip we had to be very
careful traveling on the ice it could break at any moment and we'd be swallowed up by freezing cold water as
we neared the North Pole there were only six men left if it had not been for our
Eskimo friends Perry and I might not have made it wow you must be famous not exactly however you may read more
about what we did in this book I wrote
[Applause] the greatest day of my life was April 6
1909 that was the first time anyone had ever stood on the North Pole we built a
mound and planted a blight on it and we got out of there as fast as we could
Perry couldn't walk any more so I pushed him about 400 miles by sled funny thing

story of the superlative horse continues with Han Khan the country boy eager to
prove himself by finding an extraordinary horse for Duke moves court
and so hong kong and wang go set out on their long journey traveling through
mountains through valleys through streams stopping at any place where there was rumored to be horses of
quality [Music]
at first Hangang looked mostly at nobleman's forces he was shown many fine
horses but traders were all eager to please him to sell a horse to the royal
stable was a great honor Han Khan would study the horses carefully and silently
[Music]
then you would beckon to Marco the journey would begin again
[Music]
miles and miles they traveled each day and often days went by without finding a
single horse [Music]
and so the trip continued with Han Khan in the lead and wonho always behind
always trying to catch up [Music]
[Music]
you'll never find a horse one who mumbled to himself and I'll be stuck on
this phony the rest of my life time past
distance past and soon the snow on the ground
[Music] into headcount
[Music]
honk on the country boy didn't seem to mind this weather at all
but Wong home was used to the elegant life of the court was miserable
[Music]
by this time wonho was sure they had seen every nobleman's horse in the
entire land and there were only peasant horses to look at what hope could there
be
[Applause] and indeed it seemed there was no hope
at all
[Music] [Applause]
[Applause]
wine home was at the end of his patience
eating country food in the middle of nowhere he was sure they were lost and
would never find their way home
[Applause] [Music]
and then the final disgrace for our elegant chief minister steeping like a
horse on a bed of hay [Music]
six months had passed Bango had given up he was certain now that Han Khan would
never find the horse he was searching for and unexpectedly in the middle of
the forest they came across a horse trader traveling from village to village most of the horse in the group were
quite ordinary all except for one there finally there was the extraordinary
horse a pure white stallion that was more magnificent than any they had seen
it is a good horse of course the neck might be longer and the head might be
larger and I myself prefer that are till much shorter what value do you place on
the horse a high price a thousand bars of gold I'm not surprised
over there there is a horse grazing I should like to see it
[Music]
[Music]
yes this is the horse I want this one
but surely you can't be serious yes I am what do you ask for this horse
I had not thought what to ask for this horse I understand it is impossible to
place a value on such a horse we to accept the same as you asked for the
white stallion yes of course prepare the hospital wait till I tell
boot took more good news Wang h* could
hardly wait to get away he was afraid hog car would change his mind he was
beside himself with joy and glee as he hurried back to court the story of the
superlative horse continues next time hi
this is worried I already know wrong we're gonna cook Americans all over the
land just barbecue spam defeat the ban so here we go we're proud about us take
one tablespoon of vinegar [Music] one small can of tomato sauce oil
despair about ten minutes
Wow what does the word race mean it
means ready set go it means a race one motorcycle race
right those are all races but the word race has another meaning a different
meaning what does the other kind of race mean then well first we have to ask what
does it take to be human I have to i right don't forget to smile no can't
have one what are those wings yeah
wings yeah that's better
what about legs two legs please on the double
eat some here it's not it's a human
person put the hair on the head okay two arms two legs hair on the head these
are some of the things that make us different from the birds and the beasts that's why humans are put in a single
group the human race but sometimes it's
convenient to divide this very large human race into smaller groups one group
of humans that you know is the family sometimes it's also helpful to divide
people into neighborhoods States and countries there are many ways to group
people by hair color by shade of skin color by size and so on the same person
can fit in many different groups bald curly size in the past scientists and
others have made attempts to group people according to qualities like shade of skin color kind of hair shape of
noses etc this idea of grouping has been called race but none of these scientists
have ever agreed on how many such groups are races there should be and the more
you look at differences in people the more it seems that every person should be in a separate group it's often quite
useful to group people even to divide them into races as long as we remember
that no one group is any better than any other it's a good feeling to be part of
a group and part of the human race hey wait
didn't you hear me say I've got it I don't know Lilly it's hard for me to listen while I'm talking
