04x07 - Odd Way Round/Strictly Odd Dancing

[bunniefuu]

[Orli] My name is Agent Orli,

and this is my partner, Agent Ozzie.

This is the world's fastest snail.

Back to us.

We work for an organization run by kids

that investigates anything strange,

weird, and especially odd.

Our job is to put things right again.

[creature growling]

[zapping]

[zap]

[all] Whoa!

Whooo!

News time!

[zap]

[ding]

-[growling] -[cheering]

[Orli] We are Odd Squad!

[Captain O] "Odd Way Round."

Thank you for coming, Odd Squad.

What seems to be the problem, ma'am?

It's easier if I just show you.

Did you decorate your teapot to make it look like a rabbit?

No! Of course not.

Did you stick them on there

just so you'd have an excuse to call us?

Yes.

Sorry.

I've just moved to town and I'm a bit lonely,

you see.

I have an idea.

[device beeps]

Agent Orli here. Is that the Rabbit Society?

Thank you so much, Odd Squad.

Happy to help, ma'am.

Have a great party.

Help yourself to cake and biscuits.

[flame whooshes]

I should have got them to look at that while they were here.

Are you sure you're ready for your Odd Squad UK exam?

Don't worry, Ozzie. I'm the exam queen.

Ask me a question.

Okay.

Mmm, what's your name?

Oh! I know this one!

Orli! Your name's Orli.

[laughs]

It's not funny. If you fail this exam,

they'll send you back to Niagara Falls.

Relax, Ozzie.

I know my name, and I know the other answers.

Now, I'm going to walk to the test center--

Why aren't you taking the Tubes?

A relaxing walk helps me clear my mind and focus.

But, if you're late, they'll fail you automatically.

It's fine. I've got a map.

All I have to do is walk from here

to here.

Easy.

Okay, good luck.

Everything's going to be fine.

[Orli] See you later!

Did you hear that, Single Serving Sarla?

If Agent Orli's late for her test,

she'll be sent back to Niagara Falls.

That's one less Odd Squad agent for us

to worry about.

Ooh, we should totally stop her

from getting there, Monsieur Rapide!

Between my speed powers and your ability

to make absolutely anything in the world--

But once, and only once!

What do you mean?

So...

I've never made a sink plunger before.

[poofs]

And now, I can never make one again.

Woop! Ha!

[person off screen] Oh, free plunger! Thank you.

Okay, between my great power

and your slightly strange power,

we'll block her route easily.

Yes! Er, what's a "route"?

Make me a map and I'll show you.

[poofs]

A route is the path you take

between where you start and where you're going.

Agent Orli's route is from here

to the test center.

To stop her from getting there,

we can block her here!

But she's got a head start!

You forget that I am Monsieur Rapide,

the fastest villain in all the world!

Ow!

Hold on!

[zooms away]

You have to hold on tighter.

Ooh.

Owhoooo!

Whoooo!

We're just in time.

How can we block Agent Orli's route?

What if we make a huge doughnut?

I've never made a doughnut before.

No! If you make a huge doughnut,

Odd Squad will suspect villains have been involved.

Then they'll let her take the test anyway.

So we need to be sneakier

and make it look like she's late to the exam on her own.

But how?

Naturally, I have a brilliant idea.

Oh, no! Ahhh!

[humming]

Ahem, street closed. Important roadworks.

Fixing the, eh, floorboards?

Hang on--the two of you aren't dressed

like regular construction people.

That's because we have a party after work.

Yes, we're going to my...

-Grandma-a-a's... -Great Uncle.

Great Uncle Grandma.

Ah, makes sense.

Well, have fun.

[whispering] Did we do it? Is she lost?

Yes, she's totally stuck.

[both] Bluh-du-boop!

Oh, no. She's taking a different route!

A different route? What's that?

She's found a different way to get to the test center.

Is she allowed to do that?

Of course!

Give me the map.

Oh. I didn't think we needed it again.

I threw it away.

How are we going to stop Agent Orli

without the map?

We could buy one.

You know what I've never made before?

[sing-song] Money!

[poof]

[choir sings]

[giggling]

[hip-hop music plays]

[cash register dings]

We look awful.

Absolutely ridiculous.

[sighs]

[register dings]

[singing] ♪ It's Orli with an I

♪ Not Orli with a Y

♪ With a map in my hand

♪ Looking for the exam

[zooming] Whooo!

Okay.

Agent Orli's new route

will bring her right through here

and up that road to the test center.

But if she can't see this sign,

she will go the wrong way.

Oh, yes!

I'll cover it with a huge doughnut--

No, no, no!

Do not cover the sign with a doughnut,

or else Orli will suspect us.

Then what?

We turn the sign around

so she will go the wrong way

and be late for her test.

Good idea!

-Oooh! -[sign squeaks]

Perfect.

-Oh, no! -[zoom]

[Orli humming]

[Orli continues humming]

We did it!

[squeals]

[both] Bluh-du-boop!

Wait, Agent Orli's coming back.

[Orli] Something's not right here.

[Odd Squad theme plays]

-[beep] -It's Orli.

Hi, Orli, did you make it to the test center all right?

Not exactly.

I think I'm a little lost.

Oh, no, I knew this would happen!

[Orli] The signpost must've been pointing the wrong way

because I followed it and hit a brick wall.

Okay, don't panic.

I'm not panicking.

We can do this together. Have you got your map?

Yes!

What else is around you? Are there any landmarks?

What's a landmark?

A landmark is a thing that never moves,

like a water fountain or a shop.

Or...

A postbox?

[Ozzie] Yes, exactly!

Or a statue?

[Ozzie] Yep, if they're marked on your map--

[Orli] They'll help me stay on my route.

Thanks so much, Ozzie. I know my way again.

[Ozzie] No problem. Stay calm.

I am calm.

I was talking to me.

Orli out.

[humming]

Wait! What's happening?

She's going the right way!

That's what's happening.

Oh, well.

We tried our best. Should we just go on?

No, we're going to the test center!

Hand, please.

[zoom]

Whooo hoo!

Oh!

So what do we do now, Monsieur Rapide?

I don't know. Why is it always me

who has to have the brilliant ideas?

Huh? Shh! She's coming.

Hi.

Hi.

Weren't you the two construction workers

I saw earlier?

Oh, that was our old job!

[Sarla] Our new job is, eh...

Test center welcomers!

-Welcome! -Welcome!

Blocked roads?

Signs pointing the wrong way?

You two have been trying to stop me from getting here.

-[Sarla] Yes. -No!

Fine, yes. And now we'll make sure you don't take your test

so you get sent back to Niagara Falls!

We'll see about that.

[stirring music]

She's quick.

Not as quick as me.

[zoom]

Not so fast, Agent Orli.

If you'll excuse me, I have an exam to do!

[grunt]

Come on, Monsieur Rapide!

Can you help, please?

I certainly can.

Agent Orli? Are you hungry?

What?

-[snap] -[Sarla chuckling]

-What? -[Rapide zooming]

I always said a huge doughnut

was what we needed.

You did. Excellent work, Sarla.

[both] Bluh-du-boop!

Wait. What is she doing?

[both] Ahhh!

[rolling pins crashing]

Are you here for an exam?

Oh, hi! Yes, please.

Name, please?

It's, uh...

It's... Orli!

Agent Orli.

With an I.

Whew.

[both grunting]

That's the last time I'm working with you.

It's your fault.

You're a rubbish villain.

[both blow raspberries]

[stirring music]

Hey, everyone, I passed!

[all cheering]

Whew.

Yes!

I knew it! I had no doubt at all.

Eh, thanks?

Where's your certificate?

My what?

Your certificate!

They give you them when you pass?

They must've forgotten to give me one.

No problem. Let's go back and get it.

I could do with a nice walk anyway.

[Orli snoring]

Or I'm sure they can send it to you.

[snoring continues]

[squeak]

-[whoosh] -[squeak]

I joined because bubbles should float,

not work in fashion.

I joined because fish should swim,

not fly helicopters.

I joined because this is no way to wear shoes.

[snap]

We are...

We are...

We are....

-We are... -[all] Odd Squad!

[Captain O] Since the beginning of time,

and we're talking way back,

-we've been fighting odd. -[swords clashing]

In our spare time, we also like to make

pictures of ourselves.

I really like this one.

There's no case too big, no case too small.

At Odd Squad, we do it all.

[crows cawing]

And yes, that is a flock of flying toast.

It's wheat bread, if you were wondering.

Join "Odd Squad" on the PBS Kids Games app

and you'll get top-notch training

in the secrets of Odd Squad, including...

Build-A-Squad--

how to run your own Odd Squad.

Being a Mrs. or a Mr. O

means you have to have a lot of odd adventures.

And there's a lot of zapping.

Not only will you help your agents zap flying books,

you'll also help them zap lobster hands.

It's all in an odd day's work

when you run your own Odd Squad.

You can also stream Odd Squad cases

on PBS Kids.

Is that over there also a normal British thing?

[lightning zaps, buzzes]

No, that's definitely odd!

Let's do this!

Odd Squad needs you!

And I need keyboard lessons.

[playing softly]

[speaker] Oh, yes, that sounds fantastic!

Well, what are you waiting for?

Go!

[Captain O] "Strictly Odd Dancing."

[voiceover] Thanks for coming, Odd Squad.

[voice echoing]

What seems to be the problem, sir?

I've lost my voice.

It's here somewhere. I just don't know where.

Ah, okay. We'll help you find it.

Just keep talking while we search.

I knew I could count on you, Odd Squad.

Whoo hoo!

Echo, echo, echo!

-Not here. -Coming to you live from my living room...

Not here, either.

...it's the Vincent show! Whoo hoo!

-Aha! -Huh?

Found it.

The remote has your voice.

Just give us a moment and we'll get it back to you.

No! Leave it in the remote.

Huh?

I have a talking remote!

I'm gonna take it around the country

and become rich and famous.

Whoo hoo!

Okay, happy to help.

See you.

Thanks, Odd Squad. Bye bye!

I'm gonna be rich!

[echoing]

Ka-ching!

It's not coming from the remote.

It's coming from the sofa!

Ugh. Ughhh!

[grunting continues]

I can't carry this from town to town.

Odd Squad!

[stirring music]

I can't believe we're still stuck on this case.

We've tried everything to get it off.

[both clapping] ♪ Music is the key!

♪ To how we get things done

♪ It helps us solve the case

♪ And it adds a little fun

Another case solved!

Well done, partner.

What's with all the singing and dancing?

Er, that's Ostin and Olyla.

They started doing it

back when I was in the Department of Help.

I have no idea why.

-Whoa! -Let's go and say hello!

Hey, Ostin, Olyla.

What's with all the singing and dancing?

It really works for us.

Helps us "tune in" to what's important about the case.

We weren't always like this, though.

We used to be a little "meh" about music.

Why sing when talking is so much easier?

Why dance when walking is right there?

[Olyla] But then everything changed.

It started off when Captain O called us into her office.

[ominous music]

[sighs] There you two are!

Something very odd has happened.

I've been sent a video by a new villain--

the Music Maestro.

Greetings, Odd Squad!

Some call me a villain, others a genius.

But what I really am is someone

who loves music.

-Back when I was a child... -[video squeaking]

She talks for quite a while.

[video squeaks]

...once I was potty-trained, I wrote my first symphony...

[squeaking]

I knew my destiny.

I was to take over the world

one note at a time!

I will use my magical baton

to hypnotize people to sing and dance.

If you don't stop me by sundown,

there will be singing and dancing forever.

-[wicked laughing] -[click]

Our gadgets can't reverse the Music Maestro's power.

So you've got until the sun sets to find her.

No pressure.

But get going!

[stirring music]

What made it worse

was that we had never actually solved a case at that point.

Catch a villain? We couldn't catch a cold.

And we were terrified of letting the townspeople down.

So we rushed to the scene

of the Music Maestro's first crime.

The cafe.

[wacky music playing]

[Maestro laughing]

[Maestro] I'll control the whole town.

Aha ha ha ha haha!

♪ I'm singing and dancing

♪ It's beyond my control

♪ I should be making coffee

♪ And tea, don't you know?

♪ 'Cause I'm a barista

♪ But as you can see

♪ Something is controlling me

♪ Help me, please!

Don't worry, we'll save you.

Eh, what do we do?

[Olyla] We need a clue.

Is this a clue?

That's a napkin.

[Ostin] Why is this job so hard?

♪ You'll never catch the Maestro ♪

♪ You're up against the clock ♪

♪ Even though she lives in a tower by the ♪

♪ Biggest dock

Wait, the lyrics.

Listen to them.

Eh, okay.

♪ The Maestro is telling you

♪ Exactly where she lives

♪ But you'll never catch her

♪ No matter what clues she gives ♪

The Music Maestro is so confident

we won't catch her, she's giving us a clue!

Are you sure? There are so many words.

We need to ignore all the stuff

about how we'll never catch her

and focus on what's important.

♪ You'll never catch the Maestro ♪

♪ You're up against the clock ♪

♪ Even though she lives in a tower ♪

♪ By the biggest dock!

She lives in a tower by the biggest dock.

That's the clue!

[stirring music]

Awesome. So you caught her?

Absolutely not.

First of all, we had to do some research.

This is whereyou turn up, Ozzie.

The lyrics said that the Music Maestro

lives in a tower near the biggest dock in town.

[Ostin] That's here.

Good work, agents.

Now we need an X to mark the spot.

The X you ordered, Captain.

Thank you, Ozzie.

[agent] Now that we'd found the biggest dock,

we were one step closer to finding the Music Maestro.

There are one, two, three towers by this dock.

The Music Maestro lives in one of them.

-But which one? -[Ostin] We don't have time

to check each one before sunset.

If only we had another clue.

Let me think.

Well, I'm out of ideas.

[boarders all singing]

[Olyla] Listen! Do you hear that?

Hang on, they're singing and dancing.

[Olyla] Hey, they might be able to help.

[Maestro] The Maestro has you now!

[evil cackling]

Come on!

[sighs] Not more singing and dancing.

[Olyla] Pay close attention to the lyrics.

There might be another clue.

♪ The Music Maestro is a genius ♪

♪ You'll never catch her

♪ Even if

♪ You know that she is in

♪ The second tallest tower

♪ Please make it stop

♪ She's in the second tallest tower ♪

Any useful information in there?

What about "She's in the second tallest tower"?

I think that's the clue!

Yes, I found a clue!

[Olyla] There are three towers.

[Ostin] And the second tallest is the one in the middle.

Yes! Come on!

We'll be back to help you!

♪ You haven't got a chance

♪ The Maestro is too brainy

♪ You won't catch her

♪ If it's day or night or rainy ♪

This is the right tower, but which is her apartment?

We'd better hurry! The sun's nearly down.

[Odd Squad theme plays]

It's Ostin.

Prepare for defeat, Odd Squad!

It's nearly sundown.

Are you calling just to taunt us?

Yes. I believe I am!

[cackling]

[beep]

It's over.

What are we going to do?

I can't believe I'm saying it,

but I'd really like to hear a song now.

[music starts]

Yes!

[wacky music playing]

♪ This town is mine I control them ♪

♪ I'm the Music Maestro queen ♪

♪ I will enjoy the view

♪ This view from the top

♪ They look for me at

♪ They look for me at ♪

♪ But in actuality, I'm in between! ♪

I can't make out any clues,

and I'm usually great at that.

We need to join in.

No way!

The only way for us to hear the clues

is to get into the middle of the song and listen.

I don't like dancing, Olyla.

It doesn't matter. We just have to go with it.

[music continues]

Okay. Come on then.

[both] For Odd Squad!

♪ This town is mine, I control them ♪

♪ I'm the Music Maestro queen ♪

♪ I will enjoy the view

♪ This view from the top

♪ They look for me at ...

[Ostin] View from the top.

[Olyla] Thirteen?

[Ostin] Fifteen?

[all] ♪ I'm in between!

What did you hear?

"I will enjoy this view,

this view from the top."

Maybe the top floor?

Yes! Fantastic!

But she hasn't told us whereabouts on the top floor.

Yes, she has.

"They'll look for me at ,

"they'll look for me at ,

but in actuality I'm in between."

That's !

So she lives at door #

on the top floor!

Let's go get her!

[stirring music]

And that is how we learned to love music.

What a great story.

[Olyla] Thank you. We've got a case to solve, so--

Wait! What about the Music Maestro?

Did you catch her?

[both] Oh, yeah.

-[dramatic chord] -Ahhh!

[all] ♪ Yeah! Yeah, yeah, you're busted ♪

♪ Yeah, yeah, you're busted! ♪

[Music Maestro] Odd Squad!!!

[dramatic music]

Our lyrics have improved since then.

I guess sometimes it pays to try something new.

That's right-- we had to do something

we hadn't done before to fix the problem.

Good luck.

Hey, maybe we should try something new

to try and unstick this briefcase.

I think you're right, Orli.

♪ Move it to the left

♪ Move it to the right

♪ Jiggle it about

♪ With all our might

[dramatic chord]

Ozzie, look! A nose!

Maybe give it a tickle.

[scratching]

[nose] A-choo!

Yes! We're free!

[both] ♪ They looked at the problem in a whole new way ♪

[Orli and Ozzie] ♪ We looked at the problem in a whole new way ♪

[all] ♪ That's how we saved

♪ The day! Yeah!

Yeah, we should probably get back to work now.

Achoo!

Welcome to the Odd Squad lab.

This is where scientists, like me,

get to work on new inventions.

Now, you're probably asking,

"Onom, what are those things?"

Well, the answer to that is,

[whispering] I have no idea.

This is where we keep all our gadgets.

If you want to look up a gadget,

the numbers are stored all in here.

But if you can't access my brain,

you can easily find them here.

This is Omelia.

Hi.

Hi.

Another cool thing about the lab

is that button!

If you push it once...

-[zap] -you get a bowl of noodles.

But if you push it twice...

[zap zap]

you get two bowls of noodles.

But if you push it three times...

[Agent Orli] Welcome to "Odd Squad"-- a Guide to Your Gadgets.

Behold the Toothbrushinator,

the first gadget ever created.

Most people don't know,

the Toothbrushinator isn't used for brushing teeth.

It's used to comb your eyebrows.

With high-quality bristles

made from only the finest horsetail hair,

the Toothbrushinator can withstand anything,

except toothpaste.

This has been a helpful guide to the Toothbrushinator.
