Who's gonna answer that?
[StoryBots exclaiming]

Boop.
If you're done dillydallying,
we got work to do around here!
[panicked shouts]

Well, then brace yourselves, StoryBots,
'cause this one's a doozy!
Hi, StoryBots.
-[Bo] Oh, how do you do, young lady?
-[Bing] Good to see ya.
-[Beep] What's your name?
-My name is Eva.
[Beep]
Eva! Yay!
[Bing]
Hey! It's so great to meet her.

[Beep] Guys!
I think Eva has a question for us.
So what's your question, Eva?
Why is the sky blue ?
Hmm...
Why is the sky blue?
Oh, I don't know anything
about the sky.
Do you know anything
about the sky, Eva?
The sky is big.
Uh, you got anything else
for us to work with?
That it's blue.
[deflating loudly]
[gasps] Oh, I got it.
I know where we can
find the answer.
StoryBots, prepare for transport.
Let's find out why the sky is blue.
[beeping]
[alarm blares]
[in unison]
Outer World, here we come!
[suction sound]
Hmm. Not bad.
[quail clucks]
[StoryBots screaming]

Whoa!
Eeee!
Ohhh!
Boop!
[StoryBots screaming]
[screaming and groaning]
[all groaning]
Huh?
[wind whistling]
[Boop shivering] Boop.
So, Beep, why are we here?
Where are we? Huh? Huh? Huh?
Well, I figured if we want
to know why the sky is blue,
we need to get as close
to it as possible.
Welcome to Mount Everest.
[Beep]
The highest point on Earth.
-[Bing] Cool!
-[Bang] Awesome Idea!
Uh... Beep,
I hate to break it to you,
but the sky's not blue.
No, it's, uh... It's black!
That's only because it's--
The sky is black. The end is near.
[StoryBots screaming]
[Bing] The sky is black.
Run for your life.
The sky is black.
[distant shouting]
Stop!
Hold on a minute, guys.
The sky is only black
because it is nighttime.
Look, the sun is rising.
Oh, yeah. [laughs] I knew that.
Ah, I don't think you knew that.
Dudes, look.
[soft piano music playing]
Whoa.
Whoa.
[Bang] Whoa.
-[needle scratching record]
-Guys! Did you see that?
The sky wasn't only blue. It was made up
of lots of different colors.
-Uh, yeah.
-It was pretty.
[laughs]
Who do we know that knows
a lot about colors?
Dude. An artist knows a lot about colors.
-Great idea.
-I love art.
-Let's go visit an artist.
-And find out why the sky is blue.
[Bang]
Oh, that is a terrific idea.
-[Bing] Yeah. Come on, guys.
-[Beep] Here we go.
[all chattering excitedly]
[Beep]
I've never met an artist before.

-[Beep] Watch your step, guys.
-[Bo] Oh, squishy.
[Bang] This place is messier
than my bedroom.
[Beep] Hey, I think we can get out
through here.
Push!
[StoryBots grunting]
Boop!
This place is a real mess.
Yeah, how can we ask an artist
why the sky is blue
if we cant find him in all this clutter?
Well, we've got to keep trying.
Eva's counting on us.
-[Artist] No. No. No.
-Dudes, do you hear that?
[Artist] This is horrible.
No. That's not it.
It's the worst thing I've ever painted.
-[crash]
-I've lost my inspiration.
[sobbing]
I will never paint again.
[sobbing]
Excuse me. Mr. Artist? Mr. Artist.
Not now. I'm suffering
from a complete lack of inspiration.
[sobbing]
Please, Mr. Artist. We just need
a moment of your time.
Huh? Oh?
Huh? Oh!
Look at you. The colors. The shapes.
I must paint you right now.
A little to the left.
A little to the right.
Put your arm here. And...
Perfect.
Hold that pose. Don't move.
[Beep] Um, we're flattered, Mr. Artist,
but we just trying to--
Shh!
You have to create
when the muses sing.
[whimsical music playing]
Oh, at last.
My masterpiece.
-Ah!
-[crash]
[cat yowls]
[Bo] Psst!
Do you think we still need
to hold this pose?
[Beep] Um, Mr. Artist?
Can we move now?
Yes.
[groaning]
-[Bo] Oh, my back.
-[Bing] Finally.
Um, Mr. Artist guy?
We know you're really inspired and all,
and that's great,
but we're trying to answer
a question for a girl named Eva.
Huh? You are?
Well, why didn't you just say so?
What's the question?
Uh, uh, she wants to know
why the sky is blue.
Why is the sky blue?
Why is the apple red?
Or the banana yellow?
Wait. Let me show you.
I just need to collect a few things.
Oh, where are my canvases?
I don't need that. I need that.
Oh, what a mess.
-Ooh, ah, ah, there it is!
-[chicken squawks]
Okay, now pay attention.
The sky looks blue during the day
because of light from the sun.
You can't see it,
but light is made up of lots
of different color waves.
Oh, yes. [laughing]
[Bo gasping]
You mean like waves in the ocean?
These waves are different.
They're invisible.
[Bang] Whoa!
You can see here that red waves
are really, really long,
blue waves are really, really short,
and yellow waves are in the middle.
Different color waves bounce
off different objects.
Red waves bounce off of an apple.
Yellow waves bounce
off of a banana.
So there must be something
in the sky that blue waves
are bouncing off of.
But, Mr. Artist,
there's nothing in the sky
for blue color waves
to bounce off of.
Are you sure?
Did you look everywhere?
Even for things that are...
really, really,
really, really, really small?
Hey. Good point.
Maybe there's something really,
really, really, really, really small
in the sky that blue color waves
are bouncing off of.
-[Bo] Oh.
-[Bing] Yeah.
[Beep] Yeah. I bet that's it.
Thanks, Mr. Artist.
[Bo] Thank you so much.
You're very talented.
[Beep]
Good luck with your art.
Farewell, StoryBots.
Bon voyage. Arrivederci. Good luck.
[cat yowls]
I guess it's finally cleanup time.
[suction sound]
-Lunchtime.
-[bell ringing]

[Beep]
Hey! You with the camera!
We're here,
but we're really, really, really small!
You have to zoom way in to see us!
You're gonna have to zoom
further than that!
We're microscopic!
Haw haw!
[Beep] Even more than that!
But you're almost there!
[Beep gasps]
Boop.
[Beep] A little too much, guys.
Back it up and... perfect.
So, uh, what exactly
are we looking for, Beep?
Well, I'm not a hundred percent sure,
but it's something blue color waves
bounce off of.
Guys, look over there.
What are those?
[indistinct murmuring]
[Bo]
Ooh, there's so many of them.
[Beep] Let's head over
and see if they can help us
answer Eva's question.
-Yeah.
-Sounds good to me.
So then I said,
"Orange you glad I didn't say banana."
[all laughing]
[Beep]
Excuse me. Over here.
Hi!
Oh. Well hi there, little fellas.
Who are you?
We're StoryBots.
We're here to answer a question
for a girl named Eva.
Questions? You mean like trivia?
Oh! We love trivia.
Whaddya got?
Um, okay.
Uh, can you tell us
why the sky is blue?
[particles laughing]
Listen, StoryBots.
The sky itself isn't blue.
Yeah. It just looks
that way because of us.
And who are you?
We're particles and gas molecules.
Yeah. We're tiny specs of stuff
floating around in the sky.
-I'm a nitrogen molecule.
-I'm oxygen.
And I'm dust.
[coughing]
I hate to break it to you guys,
but you're not blue.
We're not made of color, StoryBots.
It's just that
when light bumps into us,
it's the blue color waves
that bounce around
and scatter all over the sky.
And that's why the sky looks blue.
So...
it's sorta like the red waves
that bounced off the apple.
Yeah, and the yellow waves
that bounced off the banana.
-[O] Look.
-[StoryBots] Huh?
Hold tight, guys.
Incoming!
[particles] Whoo-hoo!
[zapping]
Dude. Check it out.
The sky is turning blue.
[molecules yelling]
StoryBots, we have our answer.
-[Bing] Cool.
-[Bo] Yay.
[Bang] All right!
-[Beep] Thanks, guys.
-[Bo] Goodbye. See you later.
-Good luck.
-No problem, Storybots.

Did you know that the biggest carrot
ever grown was over nineteen feet long?
That's a mighty fine carrot.
Was it hard to grow it that big?
Not really.
The tricky part was keeping
the rabbits away.
[rumbling]
See what I mean?
Yep.
[playing calypso music]
Ah ho ho ho ho.
Carrots.
Heh-heh-hey, yes.
Carrots.
Ho ho ho ho.
Oh, no.
Ho, yes.
All the people now.
Ooh.
Yeah.
Ha ha ha.
Carrots.
Ho ho ho ho ha! Carrots.
Ho! How low can you go?
Ooh.

What the--?
[StoryBots shouting]
[Bing] Hi, boss!
What are you StoryBots
doing back here?
We need to find out why the sky is blue.
We got the answer boss.
Yeah.
There's, like, these
super tiny things in the sky
called particles and gas molecules.
And they're so tiny, you can't
even see 'em. They're like invisible.
Yeah, but they can still get hit
by light from the sun.
And light isn't just one color.
It's made up of lots
of different color waves.
I don't need all the colors, StoryBots.
Just blue.
Well, when the sunlight bumps
into the particles and gas molecules,
it's mostly the blue light waves
that scatter across the sky and...
[StoryBots]
That's what makes the sky blue.
Just gimme that tape.

the particles and gas molecules?
And it scatters all over the sky?
That's super cool!
