Yeah!

ZADIE: "Yo-h*-h*:

A Sandwich for Mr. E."

[mouth full]: Mm, this is delicious.

Mm. Grandma, your Super Sub Sandwiches are the best.

[Mr. E approaching, huffing]

Hi-de-hi.

I thought I'd jog over and thank you, Super,

for making me this ticky-ticker-buzzy-beeper.

[watch beeps]

What's a ticky-ticker-buzzy-beeper?

Super invented it.

This watch makes a sound any time someone

at the Everything Emporium needs my help.

There's a special button at the counter at the store.

If anyone pushes the button...[honk]

...this handy little device makes a noise.

[blaring honk, Mr. E yelping]

Pretty nifty, eh?

It's also a... blender[whirring, splashing]

Want a napkin?

[gasps]: Is that what I think it is?

These are Super's Super Sub Sandwiches.

They're really good.

Super's delicious Super Sub Sandwiches.

I remember those.

I had one once, when I was a wee lizard.

It was the most delicious sandwich I had ever tasted.

Alas, I forgot to eat lunch today,

so I will have a rumbly tummy all day.

Oh, poor, poor me.



Grandma, I think Mr. E might want a sandwich, too.

Oh! Wow.[violin music stops]

The thought never crossed my mind,

but, yes, please.

[horn blares, Mr. E exclaims]

Someone needs my help.

I have to get back to the Emporium.

[moans]: Oh, but what about my sandwich?

Sure thing!

Once it's made, I'll deliver it.

Thank you, Super.

Ta-ta.

Cool.

♪ What do we do today?

♪ Play pirates, arrg-hooray!

♪ Yo-h*-h*, let's sail away! ♪

[laugh]

[in pirate voice]: Arr, is that the sandwich treasure Mr. E's been eyein'?

[in pirate voice]: Yarr, yes it be.

DUFFY [on intercom]: Super? Help!

The flapjack flipper is on the fritz.

Coming!

[in pirate voice]: Could ye brave pirates deliver this sandwich for me?

KIDS: Aye aye!

This treasure should go inside something to keep it safe.

Arr!

Arr!

Something that's just the right size and closes tightly.

This lunchbox can be our treasure chest.

Yarr, let's get this treasure to Mr. E Island right away.

Pirate Zeke, you be the scout,

on the lookout for any dangers in the high seas.

Okie dokie.

I mean,

[pirate voice]: Arr.

Wait a sec.

This'll be my spyglass.

It's long and you can look through it,

just like a pirate's spyglass.

Arr!

[pirate voice]: I'll be the captain.

Arr!

[normal]:Oh.

But I'll need a steering wheel to steer the ship.

[pirate voice]: This pie tin will work.

It's round like a steering wheel,

and it can turn from side to side.

Yarr!

Now our ship is stocked with supplies.

And this kite can be our sail.

I'll make sure our sails are full of wind,

so we'll keep moving.

[blowing]

Set a course for Mr. E Island.

E-I-E-I-O, Captain Zadie.

ALL: ♪ What do we do today?

♪ Play pirates, arrg-hooray ♪

♪ Yo-h*-h*, let's sail away ♪

[Malik blowing]

Captain, I see Amadoahead.

Whoa! Not the plants!

Avast! That hose is going wild.

[exclaims, shudders]

It's like an angry sea monster,

and it's got Amado.

Stop the ship!

We have to help Amado stop that monster.

I'll drop anchor.[ducky squeaks]

Why'd you use a rubber ducky as an anchor?

Anchors are big

and are supposed to be heavy.

I like how it squeaks.[squeaking]

Here, we can use this blanket as our net.

If I throw it on top of the sea monster,

it might trap it.

Arr, this be a mighty beast.

First Mate Malik, the water.

Good thinking, Pirate Zeke.

If I turn off the water, it might tame the sea monster.

[sighs]

Yar-har!

We tamed the sea monster.

[pirate voice]: Arr, you brave pirates saved me.

For such bravery, you deserve a rew-arr-d.

Uh, gold leaves?

Oh, no, no!

Those be gold doubloons.

Wow, gold doubloons. Thank ye.

Now we must be off.

We're delivering a treasure to Mr. E Island.

Safe travels, mateys.

ALL: ♪ What did we do today?

[gasps]

What is it, Pirate Zeke?

There be Sammy.

Look!

The scoundrel sea-surfing pirate.

Drop anchor.

Out of our way, you sea-surfing scoundrel.

We're delivering a treasure to Mr. E Island.

[pirate voice]: Well, if ye be going to Mr. E's Island,

you'll have to pass through the dangerous waters

with pointy rocks.

Arr, they really are pointy rocks.

Yarr, will you help us?

Har-har, no way.

I am a scoundrel, after all.

Then I challenge you to a surfing contest.

If I win, you'll help us

through the pointy rocks, yarr.

You're on.

See if you can beat this.



Arr, impressed?

That be a fine trick,

but that's nothing compared to this.

Watch!



Yarr!

[normal]: Did you know she could do that?

[normal]: Nope.

That was amazing, Captain Zadie.

Ye beat me fair and square.

I'll help you pass through the pointy rocks.

Yarr.

ZADIE: Yarrr!



[pirate voice]: Look out!

Pointy rocks, port side.

If we hit them, we'll sink.



WOMBATS: Yo-h*-h*! You did it.

Thanks, Sammy.

WOMBATS: ♪ What did we do today?

♪ Did surfin' tricks, arrg-hooray ♪

♪ Yo-h*-h*, let's sail away! ♪

Yarr,

are those tablecloths up ahead, Captain?

Those aren't tablecloths.

See how they're the color of the ocean,

and they're moving up and down?

They're waves.

These be rough waters.

Yarr, you call these rough waters?

I've seen rougher waters in a bathtub.

Arrg, the seas are getting rough.

We're taking on water!

Full speed ahead![Malik blowing]

WOMBATS: ♪ What did we do today?

Look out, Captain.

There's another sea monster.

It's blocking our way to Mr. E Island.

Drop anchor.

Sea monster?

I'm no sea monster.

Did you not know?

I am a mermaid.

A mermaid queen.

Your majesty, we're taking this treasure

to Mr. E Island.

So could ye move out of the way, please?

Nuh-uh-- not without, um,

giving me a present.

A present?

Did you not know?

Mermaids, especially mermaid queens,

won't let a ship pass their waters

unless you give them a present.

You can have me spyglass.

You can use it to see things that are far away.

I have no use for a spyglass.

I'm a mermaid queen.

I already see all.

You want my pirate hat?

Pirate hat?

I'm not a pirate mermaid,

I'm a queen mermaid.

Hm...

I've got it!

Here ye go, your majesty.

A throne for a queen mermaid.

All queens need a throne.

[sighing]: A throne fit for a queen.

Okay, you may pass.

Arr!

WOMBATS: ♪ What did we do today?

[squeaks]

Why are you in a box taped to a wagon?

It's not a box taped to a wagon.

This be our pirate ship, arr.

[monotone]: A-ha-ha, yes...

We brought you treasure.

[gasps]

Super's Super Sub Sandwich!

If ye want the treasure, ye got to act like a pirate.

It is Mr. E Island, after all.

[sighs]: Fine.

[clears throat]

[deadpan]: Yarr.

You call that a yarr?

This is a yarr.

[exclaiming]:Yarr!

[yelps]

[warily]: Yarr.

You can do better, Mr. E.

A shaving cream beard?

Not bad, but not good enough.

More! Or I'll walk ye off the plank.

Ah... so lovely!

ZADIE: "Balloonie for Youie."



Huzzah!

Hip-hip-hooray!

It's Balloonie for Youie Day at the Emporium.

[laughing]

QUIQUE: I'm teaching a Bomba dance class later,

and I thought I could wear one.Cool.

DUFFY: Morning, Mr. E.

Here's your smoothie.

Thanks, Duffy.

WOMBATS: Good morning, Mr. E!

[shrieks, spitting]

Sorry, Mr. E.

We didn't mean to surprise you.

Normally, I'd be upset,

but today is so exciting, nothing can get me down.

Why is today so exciting,Mr. E?

Because it's Balloonie for Youie Day

at the Everything Emporium.

Every customer gets a free balloon.

I was a little surprised you scheduled

Balloonie for Youie Day on the same day

as the Hot Potato Sack Race Championship.

Same day as the sack race?

Mr. E doesn't look excited anymore.

Yeah, now he looks a little...

Sick.[whimpering]

Mr. E?

Are you there? Hello?

[wailing]

What am I to do?

It's the final round of

the Hot Potato Sack Race Championship

and Balloonie for Youie Day.

It's okay, we can help you work it out.

But how can I give out balloons and watch the race?

I've been following eight-time champion

Will-yam Spuddenheimer all season.

I can't miss this race, I can't!

I have an idea.

Maybe you could try running back and forth really fast

between the TV and the balloons?

[store bell chiming throughout]

[grunts]: But I'm not a very fast runner.

I have tiny little legs.

Maybe...

you could make a copy of yourself

with your super awesome copying machine.

Then, the copy of yourself can hand out balloons

while the real you can watch the race.

Hello, handsome.

If only I could copy myself.

But, alas, I don't have a copy machine that can do that.

You could always just

record the race and watch it later.

[groans]: But there might be spoilers.

Folks might watch the race before I do,

and tell me who won, and that would ruin it for me!

[sobbing dramatically]

Sounds like you need a helper, Mr. E.

A helper?

That's it! The other day, I saw an ad for...

Here it is.

The Store Bot .

The ultimate store helper robot.

And... ordered.

Mr. E just ordered a robot?

This I got to see.

Wait for us, Mr. E.

Thanks, Gabriela.

Ooh! Ahh! [yelps]



WOMBATS: A robot!?

No touching my Store Bot .

Thanks to you, my little robot friend,

I won't miss the race.

[chimes, turns on]

ALL:Whoa!

Okay, robot,

while I watch the race, I need you to, one:

open the door.

Two: Give the customer a balloon.

And three: close the door when they leave.

Let's try it.

And... go!

It's not doing anything.

[exclaiming]: I got a defective robot!

[turns off]

Uh, Mr. E?

Robots can't think on their own.

You have to program them to do what you want them to do.

What do you mean, "program"?

You have to tell the robot exactly what to do

and in what order.

Like Zeke's robot elephant toy.

Zeke uses a special app.

He drags blocks to the top of the screen

that tell the robot what to do.

The green block is the start of the program,

this block tells the robot to blow a bubble,

and the red block is the end of the program.

[bubbles popping]

I found the app for my robot.

MALIK: It looks the same

as Zeke's robot app.

See, the start block is already there.

Now you just need to drag blocks up here

to tell the robot what to do

and then add the stop block at the end.

Which means it'll be easy-peasy to program.

[dramatically]: Let's get ready to program!

MR. E: I'm not so sure about this.

It's too hard!

I can't do it!

Will you do it for me?Please?

Super always says the best way to learn...

WOMBATS: ...is by first trying it yourself.

You can do it, Mr. E.

Snout believes in you.

You can do this, Mr. E.

You can do hard things.

And remember, when you're done programming,

be sure to test it out.

MR. E: Here's the start block.

This lets the robot know to begin.

The robot needs to open the door,

so I need to put the door block here.

And for the end of my program,

I put the red block here.

[trumpet blaring]Oh!

That noise means the race is starting.

There, I programmed my robot.

Thank you for your encouragement.

Now, would you leave me to my potato sack race?

Please and thank you.

Hm...

A-ha.

Mr. E, can we use your super cool chair?

Yes, of course, just don't get anything messy.

ALL: Yahoo!

[exclaiming]

Whoops, wrong way.

That's not right, either!

Let me try, let me try.

ALL [squealing]: Wheee!

[crowd cheering]

Mr. E. [laughing]: All right!

[store bell chimes]

Bring on my balloonie.

[store bell chimes]Hey, robot, you can't do that to me.

[store bell chimes]Mr. E!

What happened? Is something wrong?

[gasps][store bell chimes]

Your robot is very rude,

and I'm a very loyal customer.

Malik, Zadie, Zeke?

Help!

ALL: Wombats at your service.

Quick, the Store Bot keeps

shutting the door on Louisa.

I need you to...

Work it up?

Uh, it's "work it out."[door opens]

It's Balloonie for Youie Day and I want my balloonie.

Please fix this before the Store Bot slams the door

on all my loyal customers!

I see the problem.

You used the wrong block.

You used the block with a picture

of the closed door on it.

That's why the robot closed the door.

You should use

that block.

It has a picture of an open door on it,

so the robot will open the door.

Okay, so I need to put

the open door block there instead.

♪ I did it! I did it!

ALL: ♪ You did it! You did it!

Hm...

If you want the Store Bot to hand a balloon

to each customer after it opens the door,

then what do you do?

Ask it nicely?

Nope. After the open door block,

you need to put a block with a picture of a balloon.

[trumpet blares on TV]

[button clicks]

Back to my show.

Mr. E, remember to test it out.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Toy aisle.Toy aisle.

[store bell chimes]

Uh... Thank you?

I guess it's Moppie for Youie Day now.

LOUISA: Why'd Mr. E change this to

a Moppie for Youie Day?

Huh?

[guitar chords playing]

Robot, you made a mistake!

You're fired!

Actually, it's just a programming mistake.

Look, Mr. E.

Oh, Mr. E.

You placed the mop block instead of the balloon block.

Which is why the robot is giving out mops

to everyone who comes into the store.

I was in such a rush to see the race,

I made a careless mistake.

How can I ever forgive myself?

It's okay, Mr. E.

You can fix it.

I believe in you.

You're right, Zeke.

I can fix this.

Picture of open door, picture of a balloon.

And then the closed door block

so that the robot closes the door.

And red block for the end of the program.

Finished.

[button clicks]

Back to my race!

[store bell chimes]

Huh?

I always wanted to fly, but not this way.

Can somebody help me get down, please?

MALIK: Hang on, Sammy.

We'll get you down.

Mr. E!

Huh?

How did that happen?



Phew, that was a close one.

I'm sorry, Sammy.

Here, have a balloon.

I think I've had enough balloons for one day, but thanks.

Why, oh, why did the robot hand out so many balloons?

[switches off]

Hm...

Oh!

You used the wrong block, Mr. E.

You need to use the block

with one balloon on it,

not the block with lots of balloons.

First, open the door.

MALIK: Second, give the customer one balloon,

not a bunch of balloons.

MR. E: Third, close the door when a customer leaves.

Fourth, use the stop block

for when the program is finished.

[button clicks, robot turns on]

[store bell chimes]

Awesome!

ALL: You did it, Mr. E!

You worked it out!

Well, I guess I did. [chuckles]

Now back to my race!

Let's go watch.

ANNOUNCER [on TV]: And the winner of this year's Potato Sack Race

is Will-yam Spuddenheimer.

[exclaims]: He did it!

My favorite player won!

[whirring][giggles]

We programmed the robot to do that.

[all laughing]
