01x05 - Lost and Spaced
Posted: 04/22/23 17:13
We interrupt our regularly
scheduled programing
for a special
Electric Company SHOUT-OUT
from Prankster Planet!
Today's honorary Electric
Company members are:
Teja, Peach,
and Braden.
Congratulations!
BOTH:
Thank you!
And now back to...
But wait, we still need you!
Words on Earth
are being reversed!
The stop signs are
turning into pots signs!
It's chaos!
It's madness!
It's my Reverse-a-balls...
no one can stop me!
BOTH:
We will stop you!
Can The Electric Company
stop Francine
and her Reverse-a-balls?
Prankster Planet
Prankster Planet
And now back to our regularly
scheduled programming.
(bubbling sounds)
Step right up folks
and see firsthand
how the perfect brain functions.
Step right up ladies
and gentlemen.
My lab partner, Dax, and I have
created the most spectacular,
scintillating science
project you have ever seen.
But Lisa, we must be crazy.
This looks just like a boring,
old mobile of the solar system.
Well Dax, looks, like
credit card companies,
can be deceiving.
In reality this is
a perfect model of
our actual solar system.
Yes, Lisa, and with the help of
the Shrink-a-nator
a special guest will
be shrunk down with us
in an itty bitty spaceship
and take a tour of
the solar system.
Lisa, do you see our itty
bitty spaceship inside?
Why no Dax, I don't.
Of course not.
That's because the spaceship
is very, very, very small.
Oh right, I forgot.
Do we have any volunteers?
I would love to take a ride
on your little space ship.
Don't you have your brain
project to work on Francine?
Oh, I'm not worried about
my project, are you?
Okay.
Come on up.
Lisa, my Skeleckian
intuition is telling me
this is a big mistake.
It'll be fine.
Just relax and set
the coordinates.
Remember, first prize
is a gift certificate to
the International
House of Noodles.
I do like noodles.
Who doesn't?
Let's go.
Okay, there's gonna be a
ten second delay and then
we're gonna be shrunk down
inside the spaceship.
This looks like a
real winner guys.
Congratulations.
Oh, I forgot my camera,
how silly of me.
Oh no, no, no Franc...
Oh wow, we're tiny.
This is so cool.
Where's Francine?
I don't know.
Let's get ourselves
back to normal size.
Enlarging ourselves
could be a problem.
System failure.
How are we gonna get back?
The judge won't look at our
project if we're not there.
I'd say the greater concern is
that we could spend the rest of
our natural lives
as itty bitty people
in this itty bitty spaceship.
BOTH: Hey you guys!
Wait a minute!
Don't they say in space no
one can hear you scream?
Maybe we should scream louder.
BOTH: Hey you guys!!!
Feel the power
Feel the power
Feel the power, yo
And plug it in!
It's electric
(Electric Company)
Get connected
(Electric Company)
It's electric
(Electric Company)
Get connected
(Electric Company)
The power we perfected
is electrically connected
So use it as directed
and expect to be respected
Just turn it on
and you will see
That you belong
in the Company!
Feel the power
Feel the power
Feel the power, yo
And plug it in!
Plug it in, everybody!
Electric Company
Electric Company
Electric Company...
Electric Company!
Ms. Carruthers,
top o' the morning.
What's up Francine?
Where are Dax and Lisa?
I wanna ride the ship.
I hear that Venus is beautiful
at this time of year.
Hector...
Its terrain is made up
of craters and volcanoes.
Beautiful?
Well, beauty is in
the eye of the beholder
and I hold the opinion
that volcanoes and craters
make a beautiful terrain.
(laughs)
Whoa, check it out.
It's a message from
the ship's computer system.
"Two friends
trapped inside ship."
That's a problem.
We need to bring them
back to full size.
Yeah, but Dax and Lisa are the
only ones that know how to work
the Enlarger and that's the
only way to make them...
BOTH: Larger.
Right.
Okay, let's try to
make contact with them.
Hey, guys, we wanna help you.
How do we work the Enlarger?
Oh! Aah!! I don't think the
ship can take much more of this!
Keith, I think I
have a better idea.
(nervous tapping)
Dax, you need to calm down.
Sorry, but we Skeleckians
get very claustrophobic.
We don't do well
in closed spaces.
How can you be claustrophobic?
You're in spaceships
all the time.
I know and it's horrible.
I have to release the
pressure in my head.
(air hisses)
Whoa, what was that?
Excuse me.
Smells like toast.
Do you find that unpleasant?
No. I like toast.
Let's relax and focus on
something that makes us happy.
Think about the International
House of Noodles.
Noodles bring me happiness.
That's what I'm counting on.
Wow, the Big Dipper.
Is that a kind of noodle?
No, the Big Dipper
is a constellation.
You know when stars form
to make people or things?
See how the Big Dipper
is shaped like a spoon?
Isn't it beautiful and calming?
It kind of looks like
the Skeleckian
constellation of Klizoks.
What's Klizoks?
Klizoks was a Skeleckian
hunter who was trapped in
a very, very small
cave and then,
and then the walls started
closing in on him
and then he couldn't
breathe and then he got,
he got claustrophobic
and then, and then...
(air hisses)
Ah...
Toast.
What was that?
It's a message from the guys.
They're making contact!
Wait!
What are you doing?
I'm writing them back.
I have to make it extra-large
so they can read it.
You better stand back.
(paper rustling)
Where'd that paper come from?
Hey guys. What's up?
They're nowhere.
Okay, Dax and Lisa are trapped
in their science project.
What?
How did that happen?
We don't know.
Wait, wait, wait!
Enlarger broken,
we think Francine did it.
Francine?
Wait, where'd she go?
Hector, let's go find her.
Okay, Keith tell Dax and
Lisa that we're on it
and don't get fancy.
(electronic beeping)
Keith says:
Keith?
I got fancy.
(air hisses)
(sniffing) Anybody smell toast?
Today's show brought to you by
short "a", (aaa),
and short "o", (ah).
It's time for
Electric Sound Off.
I'm your host Hector Ruiz.
Let's spin the wheel.
What sound are we
playing with today?
Short "o".
The "ah"sound.
Let's plug in the "ah"
sound and see it in action.
"Ah"as in rocket.
Or an octopus opera.
Or a blogging frog.
Is hop a short "o"word?
Yes!
Is hope a short "o"word?
No!
That's right.
It has an "o"but it's a
long "o"not a short "o".
And now I need two volunteers
to go head to head
with the "ah"sound.
I'll do it.
I'll do it.
Well, come on up.
(cheering)
Let's see some words.
Make a sentence
using these words.
The person who uses the most
words with the "ah"sound wins.
But be careful, we have hidden
some long "o"words
on the wall, too.
Ready?
BOTH: Ready!
Work on your sentences while we
hear a word from our sponsor.
Do you love having a pet?
Well I am selling the best
pet you'll ever have, a rock.
Look how cute he is
and so obedient, watch.
Sit, stay, good rock.
Hey that rock
doesn't even move.
He's sleeping.
Only $.
What a deal for your
new best friend.
Time's up.
Let's see what
sentences you made.
My sentence is:
Look at that, dog, dropped,
floss, pocket, of and smock,
six "ah"words.
You have your work
cut out for you, Annie.
No problem.
My sentence is:
You've got floss, dropped, from
and smock for four points but
old and moldy have the "oh"
sound not the "ah"sound,
so Marcus wins.
(cheering)
What do I win?
A pot of slop!
Bleh!
I'll see you next time
on Electric Sound Off.
(b*at boxing with "ah"sound)
Knock on that door.
Knock on that magic door.
Knock on that door.
Knock on that magic door.
Knock on that
flat door.
Knock on that flat door.
You have a knack for knocking,
a knack for knocking,
knack for knocking
on that flat door.
You have a knack for knocking,
a knack for knocking,
knack for knocking
on that flat door.
Knock on that door.
Knock, knack.
Knack, knack, knack.
Knack, knock.
Knack, knack.
Knock.
You see before you Mrs. Mapler
a map of my very own brain
and just by thinking certain
thoughts or performing certain
tasks I can show you which part
of the brain controls which of
my many, many talents.
That's fascinating Francine.
For instance, my ballet skills
are located in
this part of the brain.
Uh huh...
And my drawing
skills are located in
this part of the brain.
I see...
And of course my science skills
are located in
this part of the brain.
The chemical name for
salt is sodium chloride.
I love science the most.
Francine, do you expect me to
believe that your brain
is connected to those lights
you keep turning on
and off with your feet?
Oh, no.
No.
This is merely a model to show
the many talent centers
of the perfect brain.
Would you like to see the
juggling center of my brain?
That's alright Francine,
I think I've seen enough.
Please don't go.
You haven't seen
my real project.
This isn't your real project?
Oh no.
This is my extra credit project.
My real project is over there.
Excuse us.
Francine?
A word.
Alright, where's the wire?
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Oh really.
What's this purple wire?
Alright, I admit it.
I took the wire but please
don't tell the judge.
She really believes in me.
We won't tell her if
Dax and Lisa are back
before the science fair's over.
And Keith.
And Keith.
And Keith?
(electronic beeping)
Three people is way too
many people to be in here.
(air hisses)
What is that?
Skeleckian pressure release.
Sorry.
Smells like toast, right?
Yes and I am starving.
Me too.
Another message!
The purple wire's supposed to
be connected to the blue wire.
Francine.
Francine!
Francine stole the purple wire.
No, no, no.
The purple wire needs to be
reconnected to the blue wire.
I'll let them know.
Stand aside boys.
(paper rustling)
Keith: What's up
with the paper?
Yeah, I know.
It's a mystery.
They're all blue.
Francine, which wire
was this hooked up to?
How should I know?
I was in sabotage mode.
Okay, you're just
gonna have to guess.
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.
Any ideas?
Try miny.
Miny it is.
(electronic sounds)
Maybe I should have said meeny.
Yeah...
Today's show brought
to you by "r", (err).
Sometimes you can be so bossy.
My name is Jahresse.
I live in New York City, Harlem
and we're gonna talk about
the letter "r".
Guess what colors
are in the front.
Oh! There it is, purple.
Go Jahresse!
I'm gonna sh**t a powerful sh*t.
Rushing down the court,
he sh**t, scores.
Whooo.
Whoop, whoop!
My hair grows a lot,
so if it grows a lot
you've got to cut it a lot.
I'm rushing down the
court, I run and he scores.
A red court.
A round ball, it's
not red but it's round.
Look! A red car with
some nice rims.
He made it, unbelievable,
really good sh*t.
Really, really good sh*t.
Score.
Powerful sh*t.
I'm going back
through my shortcut,
we arrived to the basketball
court and now we're leaving.
Have to hurry 'cause my
mom's going to worry.
Francine: I would just like
to say, for the record,
that I question the scientific
merit of a science project
that is this dangerous.
It is way too
crowded in here.
(air hisses)
(sniffing) I smell toast.
He's just releasing
some pressure.
Wow, my head feels totally
clear and instantly I had
this amazing idea to get us
back to normal size.
What is it?
Okay, one of the planets has
ammonia gas in its atmosphere.
We can go to that planet
and convert the gas
into an enlarging agent.
Well, wait.
Do you mean that ammonia
gas can make us bigger?
Well, only if we get it through
our Skeleckian Enlarger machine.
What?
Let me explain.
See the air surrounding
these planets?
There's gas in
their atmospheres.
That's right Keith.
Now I remember, the air
surrounding Jupiter
has ammonia in it.
That's the atmosphere
we're looking for.
I knew that.
Okay, Keith, set a course
straight for the planet Jupiter.
We go to that
planet, get the gas,
enlarge ourselves
and get out of here.
Watching planets rushing by,
no time for us to list 'em.
Nervously we navigate
across the solar system.
Chart a course to Jupiter
to reach our destination.
Plot a new position, use that
spoon shaped constellation.
What's this place?
I think we took
the dark way.
Outer space.
It's not your
average parkway.
Oh no.
Cover your ears.
I'm so scared.
Close your eyes.
Not you Dax,
you're driving.
Sorry.
Whoa, whoa.
Are we gonna make it?
Whoa, whoa.
Are we gonna make it?
Whoa, whoa.
Are we gonna...
Smells like toast.
Sorry.
Look out!
Asteroid.
mass of stone and metal.
Must avoid.
Put your foot to the pedal.
Dax, you need...
To drive without colliding?
Not to mention hyper speed.
It's time for bumpy riding.
Whoa!!
Jupiter!
We made it!
ALL: Ohh!
Oh, I was just
about to move on.
Well, I'm ready for that "ride"
through the solar system.
Give us five minutes.
Five minutes it is.
(air hisses)
Oh, whoa baby!
What a ride.
Excuse me.
Can I offer you a hot towel?
Cookie?
Excellent touch and I like how
you're taking care of your
fellow classmates, Francine.
I love to give.
Dax and Lisa, you have out done
yourselves with this project.
Congratulations,
you've won first prize!
Here is a gift certificate to
the International
House of Noodles.
Noodles give me happiness.
Yes. Yes.
And I have another award
to a student who has shown
excellent citizenship.
Congratulations...
Francine.
Thank you so much judge but
really this award belongs to my
fellow students, without whom I
wouldn't have anyone to help.
This might go to her head.
You think?!
You like me.
You really, really, really,
really, really, really,
really do.
Makes so much sense.
It smells like success in here.
Oh wait, that's me.
On Prankster Planet
no one can stop me.
Will you even dare to
try Electric Company?
(sinister laughter)
Prankster Planet
Prankster Planet
The Reverse-a-ball's reversing
all the words on Earth
So it's Jessica and Marcus
to the rescue
Francine has eight machines
You must stop them all
To save the world
from the Reverse-a-balls
Prankster Planet
Prankster Planet
Meanwhile in
Francine's studio...
Hello loyal fans.
ALL: Francine. Francine.
Francine. Francine.
You're too kind.
Let's take a look at
three examples of my
Reverse-a-balls on Earth.
Reverse-a-ball one.
Where are Dax and Lisa?
Reverse-a-ball two.
Excuse us.
Francine, a word.
Reverse-a-ball three.
You like me.
You really, really, really,
really, really, really,
really do.
That's my favorite.
Let's check on the progress
of our little "heroes,"
Jessica and Marcus, as they
try to stop my Reverse-a-balls.
(laughing) As if.
Okay we have to move
at the same time.
On the count of three.
One, two, three.
(screaming)
I was gonna say
one, two, three, go.
Well it's not looking good
for The Electric Company.
So why don't I make it worse?
Hey, it's survey time.
The survey question is:
Time to vote!
Francine: You can vote for
grumpy mosquitoes,
excited mice or
confused grasshoppers.
I'm going to show the results of
the survey using a circle graph.
Graphmania!
It's time to...
ALL: Vote. Vote. Vote. Vote.
And now the part where we have
the results of the survey time.
What did you vote for?
This section of the circle graph
shows that of you voted for
grumpy mosquitoes, this section
shows that five of you voted for
excited mice and this section
shows that of you voted for
confused grasshoppers.
Grumpy mosquitoes has
the biggest section
so that one wins.
The results of the survey show
that you want grumpy mosquitoes
to chase Jessica
and Marcus time.
Francine: Mosquito torpedo!
What's that?
(both scream)
Wait.
Why are they chasing us
when... the... um Marcus?
When the ah...
carnival is in town.
You think they'll
stay distracted?
Yeah I think so.
Francine: Looks like
I'm going to have to
fire some mosquitoes later.
There's the lever!
Time for my Prankster Planet,
Prankster Rules
Emergency Button.
Good luck stopping
the Reverse-a-balls now.
(laughs)
BOTH: Hey you guys!
Go to pbskidsgo.org and
stop the Reverse-a-balls.
The Electric Company and
the people of Earth need you.
We interrupt our regularly
scheduled programing for
a special Electric Company
SHOUT-OUT
from Prankster Planet.
Today's honorary Electric
Company members are:
Skylas, Alyssa and BigRyan.
Congratulations!
BOTH: Thank you.
You can be an honorary member
of the Electric Company too.
Go online and stop
Francine's Reverse-a-balls!
I have a better idea.
...I have a better idea.
Cut!
Tell Dax and Lisa
that we're on it
and don't get... (Keith sneezes)
sneezey on my finger.
Cut.
Yo, what's up guys?
Have you checked out
The Electric Company online?
Check out the games,
clips and tons more.
The best part is there's new
stuff added all the time.
You don't believe me?
Go check it out
for yourself. Go!

sound not the "ah"sound,
so Marcus wins.
(cheering)
What do I win?
A pot of slop!
Bleh!
I'll see you next time
on Electric Sound Off.
(b*at boxing with "ah"sound)
Knock on that door.
Knock on that magic door.
Knock on that door.
Knock on that magic door.
Knock on that
flat door.
Knock on that flat door.
You have a knack for knocking,
a knack for knocking,
knack for knocking
on that flat door.
You have a knack for knocking,
a knack for knocking,
knack for knocking
on that flat door.
Knock on that door.
Knock, knack.
Knack, knack, knack.
Knack, knock.
Knack, knack.
Knock.
You see before you Mrs. Mapler
a map of my very own brain
and just by thinking certain
thoughts or performing certain
tasks I can show you which part
of the brain controls which of
my many, many talents.
That's fascinating Francine.
For instance, my ballet skills
are located in
this part of the brain.
Uh huh...
And my drawing
skills are located in
this part of the brain.
I see...
And of course my science skills
are located in
this part of the brain.
The chemical name for
salt is sodium chloride.
I love science the most.
Francine, do you expect me to
believe that your brain
is connected to those lights
you keep turning on
and off with your feet?
Oh, no.
No.
This is merely a model to show
the many talent centers
of the perfect brain.
Would you like to see the
juggling center of my brain?
That's alright Francine,
I think I've seen enough.
Please don't go.
You haven't seen
my real project.
This isn't your real project?
Oh no.
This is my extra credit project.
My real project is over there.
Excuse us.
Francine?
A word.
Alright, where's the wire?
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Oh really.
What's this purple wire?
Alright, I admit it.
I took the wire but please
don't tell the judge.
She really believes in me.
We won't tell her if
Dax and Lisa are back
before the science fair's over.
And Keith.
And Keith.
And Keith?
(electronic beeping)
Three people is way too
many people to be in here.
(air hisses)
What is that?
Skeleckian pressure release.
Sorry.
Smells like toast, right?
Yes and I am starving.
Me too.
Another message!
The purple wire's supposed to
be connected to the blue wire.
Francine.
Francine!
Francine stole the purple wire.
No, no, no.
The purple wire needs to be
reconnected to the blue wire.
I'll let them know.
Stand aside boys.
(paper rustling)
Keith: What's up
with the paper?
Yeah, I know.
It's a mystery.
They're all blue.
Francine, which wire
was this hooked up to?
How should I know?
I was in sabotage mode.
Okay, you're just
gonna have to guess.
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.
Any ideas?
Try miny.
Miny it is.
(electronic sounds)
Maybe I should have said meeny.
Yeah...
Today's show brought
to you by "r", (err).
Sometimes you can be so bossy.
My name is Jahresse.
I live in New York City, Harlem
and we're gonna talk about
the letter "r".
Guess what colors
are in the front.
Oh! There it is, purple.
Go Jahresse!
I'm gonna sh**t a powerful sh*t.
Rushing down the court,
he sh**t, scores.
Whooo.
Whoop, whoop!
My hair grows a lot,
so if it grows a lot
you've got to cut it a lot.
I'm rushing down the
court, I run and he scores.
A red court.
A round ball, it's
not red but it's round.
Look! A red car with
some nice rims.
He made it, unbelievable,
really good sh*t.
Really, really good sh*t.
Score.
Powerful sh*t.
I'm going back
through my shortcut,
we arrived to the basketball
court and now we're leaving.
Have to hurry 'cause my
mom's going to worry.
Francine: I would just like
to say, for the record,
that I question the scientific
merit of a science project
that is this dangerous.
It is way too
crowded in here.
(air hisses)
(sniffing) I smell toast.
He's just releasing
some pressure.
Wow, my head feels totally
clear and instantly I had
this amazing idea to get us
back to normal size.
What is it?
Okay, one of the planets has
ammonia gas in its atmosphere.
We can go to that planet
and convert the gas
into an enlarging agent.
Well, wait.
Do you mean that ammonia
gas can make us bigger?
Well, only if we get it through
our Skeleckian Enlarger machine.
What?
Let me explain.
See the air surrounding
these planets?
There's gas in
their atmospheres.
That's right Keith.
Now I remember, the air
surrounding Jupiter
has ammonia in it.
That's the atmosphere
we're looking for.
I knew that.
Okay, Keith, set a course
straight for the planet Jupiter.
We go to that
planet, get the gas,
enlarge ourselves
and get out of here.
Watching planets rushing by,
no time for us to list 'em.
Nervously we navigate
across the solar system.
Chart a course to Jupiter
to reach our destination.
Plot a new position, use that
spoon shaped constellation.
What's this place?
I think we took
the dark way.
Outer space.
It's not your
average parkway.
Oh no.
Cover your ears.
I'm so scared.
Close your eyes.
Not you Dax,
you're driving.
Sorry.
Whoa, whoa.
Are we gonna make it?
Whoa, whoa.
Are we gonna make it?
Whoa, whoa.
Are we gonna...
Smells like toast.
Sorry.
Look out!
Asteroid.
mass of stone and metal.
Must avoid.
Put your foot to the pedal.
Dax, you need...
To drive without colliding?
Not to mention hyper speed.
It's time for bumpy riding.
Whoa!!
Jupiter!
We made it!
ALL: Ohh!
Oh, I was just
about to move on.
Well, I'm ready for that "ride"
through the solar system.
Give us five minutes.
Five minutes it is.
(air hisses)
Oh, whoa baby!
What a ride.
Excuse me.
Can I offer you a hot towel?
Cookie?
Excellent touch and I like how
you're taking care of your
fellow classmates, Francine.
I love to give.
Dax and Lisa, you have out done
yourselves with this project.
Congratulations,
you've won first prize!
Here is a gift certificate to
the International
House of Noodles.
Noodles give me happiness.
Yes. Yes.
And I have another award
to a student who has shown
excellent citizenship.
Congratulations...
Francine.
Thank you so much judge but
really this award belongs to my
fellow students, without whom I
wouldn't have anyone to help.
This might go to her head.
You think?!
You like me.
You really, really, really,
really, really, really,
really do.
Makes so much sense.
It smells like success in here.
Oh wait, that's me.
On Prankster Planet
no one can stop me.
Will you even dare to
try Electric Company?
(sinister laughter)

Meanwhile in
Francine's studio...
Hello loyal fans.
ALL: Francine. Francine.
Francine. Francine.
You're too kind.
Let's take a look at
three examples of my
Reverse-a-balls on Earth.
Reverse-a-ball one.
Where are Dax and Lisa?
Reverse-a-ball two.
Excuse us.
Francine, a word.
Reverse-a-ball three.
You like me.
You really, really, really,
really, really, really,
really do.
That's my favorite.
Let's check on the progress
of our little "heroes,"
Jessica and Marcus, as they
try to stop my Reverse-a-balls.
(laughing) As if.
Okay we have to move
at the same time.
On the count of three.
One, two, three.
(screaming)
I was gonna say
one, two, three, go.
Well it's not looking good
for The Electric Company.
So why don't I make it worse?
Hey, it's survey time.
The survey question is:
Time to vote!
Francine: You can vote for
grumpy mosquitoes,
excited mice or
confused grasshoppers.
I'm going to show the results of
the survey using a circle graph.
Graphmania!
It's time to...
ALL: Vote. Vote. Vote. Vote.
And now the part where we have
the results of the survey time.
What did you vote for?
This section of the circle graph
shows that of you voted for
grumpy mosquitoes, this section
shows that five of you voted for
excited mice and this section
shows that of you voted for
confused grasshoppers.
Grumpy mosquitoes has
the biggest section
so that one wins.
The results of the survey show
that you want grumpy mosquitoes
to chase Jessica
and Marcus time.
Francine: Mosquito torpedo!
What's that?
(both scream)
Wait.
Why are they chasing us
when... the... um Marcus?
When the ah...
carnival is in town.
You think they'll
stay distracted?
Yeah I think so.
Francine: Looks like
I'm going to have to
fire some mosquitoes later.
There's the lever!
Time for my Prankster Planet,
Prankster Rules
Emergency Button.
Good luck stopping
the Reverse-a-balls now.
(laughs)
BOTH: Hey you guys!
Go to pbskidsgo.org and
stop the Reverse-a-balls.
The Electric Company and
the people of Earth need you.
We interrupt our regularly
scheduled programing for
a special Electric Company
SHOUT-OUT
from Prankster Planet.
Today's honorary Electric
Company members are:
Skylas, Alyssa and BigRyan.
Congratulations!
BOTH: Thank you.
You can be an honorary member
of the Electric Company too.
Go online and stop
Francine's Reverse-a-balls!
I have a better idea.
...I have a better idea.
Cut!
Tell Dax and Lisa
that we're on it
and don't get... (Keith sneezes)
sneezey on my finger.
Cut.
Yo, what's up guys?
Have you checked out
The Electric Company online?
Check out the games,
clips and tons more.
The best part is there's new
stuff added all the time.
You don't believe me?
Go check it out
for yourself. Go!
