Xavier: Hey! Glad you're here.
Today we're meeting someone
who had super awesome, super big ideas.
Nikola Tesla.
Yadina: There he is!
Brad: So what super big ideas did he have?
Xavier: Drrrrrrr...lights!
Yadina: Lights?
We have lights already.
Xavier: Now, but back when Tesla was born, in ,
people didn't have electric...anything.
That meant.. no lights.
(pfzzzzt)
Luckily, Tesla had big ideas to change that.
(electricity crackling)
Awesome!
Yadina: Wow!
Brad: I've got...super powers!
Xavier: That's the power of electricity.
And now, time to start the show.
Brad: Wait, do we have to, this is so much fun?
(zap)
(toy whirring)
Hikari: Seriously?
Xavier: Totally.
Hikari: You and your sister live in a museum?
That your great, great, great, grandfather built?
Xavier: Yeah, I know.
We're pretty lucky.
Hikari: I'd love to see it.
Xavier: Okay! Want to come over tomorrow?
Hikari: Xavier, I live in Japan.
That's on the other side of the world!
Xavier: Hmmm.
If you can't come to the museum,
I'll just have to bring the museum to you!
♪ (adventurous music) ♪
Brad/Yadina: Huhh?
♪ (thinking music) ♪
Xavier: Hmmmmm.
♪
Yadina: Xavier, you're not thinking
what I think you're thinking,
cause if you're thinking what I think you're thinking...
Are you thinking, what I think, you're thinking?
Xavier: That I could push the museum
all the way to my friend in Japan?
...Noooo.
Xavier: It's just, I want the whole world to see our museum.
And I'm not ready to think anything's impossible.
Yadina: This sounds like a problem for...
Brad: Please don't say..
Brad/Yadina/Xavier: The Secret Museum!
Brad: (sigh)

♪ (playful music) ♪
Xavier: I wonder who the Secret Museum will send us to meet?
Whoo hooo!
Yadina: Or how far back in time we'll gooooo...
Brad: I'm going to find some stair...woah!
Yadina: Look out below
Xavier/Yadina: Hi, Berby! Berby: Hello.
Brad: Hi Berby! Berby: Hi Brad.
Brad: Ooof!
Xavier: (humming) Berby: Whooo!
We're getting something.
Brad: (gasp) It's a light bulb!
Who do you think it belonged to?
Yadina: (gasp) Someone with "bright" ideas.
Get it? Cause it's a light...
(giggling)
Xavier: "Nikola Tesla".
Brad: And we're meeting him in Croatia.
Yadina: In the year .
Brad: Whoa, that's...
over years ago!
Xavier: I wonder, how Nikola Tesla can help get
this big, heavy museum to Japan.
Yadina: Maybe, he'll make it so light,
that the museum will just float there!
Get it? Cause of light?
Xavier: Pardon? Yadina: Light.
Berby: (giggles)
Xavier: (giggles) Oh, right.
Ready for adventure? Yadina: Ready!
Brad: Just tell me when this part's over.
Berby: (bleep blarp bloop)
Yadina: Here we go!
Berby: Whooo!
Xavier/Yadina/Brad: It's happening!
Yadina: Hang on Dr Zoom! Xavier: Woohoo!
Brad: Whoa!
Berby: Whoohoo!
(zap)
Xavier: So, this is Croatia in .
Yadina: And by the goat eating Brad's cape,
I'd say we're on a farm.
Brad: Ahhhh!
Nikola: Zdravo! Josip, ne.
Xavier: Hey, that's Nikola Tesla!
But, what did he just say?
Yadina: Xavier, he's speaking a different language.
We need the translator.
Xavier: Oh right.
(clicking, buzzing)
Nikola: Ne...
No, Josip, leave his long shirt alone.
Brad: Ehm... it's actually a cape.
Nikola: Sorry about that.
Josip can be sneaky, but he's very friendly.
And this is my cat.
Xavier/Yadina: Awwwww.
Brad: I'm allergic (sneeze)
to cats.
(sneeze) (lightning crashing)
Nikola: Uh-oh. We better go inside.
Come on! I want to show you something incredible.
(cat purring)
Yadina: Is it me, or is he just petting his cat?
Xavier: Yeah, I'm not sure how this helps me
get the museum all the way to Japan.
Oh! Unless he thinks I can use...
cat power!
(lightning and thunder)
Or... maybe not!
(lightning and thunder)
Brad: Uaaaah!
Nikola: This is what I wanted to show you.
(electricity crackling)
Brad/Xavier: Whoa! Yadina: Cool!
Yadina: Double whoa.
Nikola: My father says these bright sparks are electricity.
And electricity is full of energy!
Energy that maybe we could use some day.
Xavier: Ah, maybe the energy from a lightning bolt
could zap the museum to Japan!
Brad: Hit the museum with lightning?
I don't think, that's a good idea.
Xavier: Huh.
Nikola: Keep thinking big.
That's what my mom says, and she's a genius.
Nikola's Mother: Nikola, are you and your friends hungry?
It's almost lunchtime!
Nikola: Ooo, lunch. Come on!
Brad: Yes, please!
Nikola's Mother: Just making the butter.
Uff! There must be an easier way.
Hmmm...ahh.
This should work better.
(cranking, clicking)
Ok, yeah!
Xavier/Brad/Yadina: It worked!
Nikola: See? Genius.
Mom, can I show them something I made outside?
Nikola's Mother: Sure. The storm has passed,
so it's safe to go out.
But be quick! Lunch will be ready soon!
Brad: Stay.. nooo!
Nikola: I haven't figured out
how to use the energy in electricity yet,
but I have learned how to use moving water
to make things work.
See how the water turns the wheel?
One day I want to build a biiig water wheel
that will power everything on the farm!
Yadina: Wow! You're really good at thinking big.
Xavier: Hey...wheels!
If we put the museum on wheels, it could roll to Japan!
(crash)
Better not do that either.
(sigh) What if my big ideas just lead to big failures?
Nikola: They might.
But they also might lead to big success.
Want to see my biggest idea ever?
Brad/Yadina/Xavier: Sure! Of course!
Nikola: Niagara Falls is a real place
with lots of moving water.
One day I'm going to go there and use the water
to make electricity!
(lightning crashes)
It will change the world!
Xavier: That's the best big idea ever.
I wonder, if it happens!
Brad: Looks like we're about to find out!
Bye Josip!
Berby: (bleep blarp bloop) Whoohooo!
(zap)
Xavier: Hey, we're in New York...
years later!
Yadina: And look... Niagara Falls!
All: Wow!
Brad: This is where Nikola Tesla wanted to go.
Yadina: Do you think he's here?
Xavier: I know he's here.
Whoa. A water wheel!
Brad: Like the one at the farm!
Yadina: But way bigger.
Nikola: Exactly!
This water wheel will power an entire city!
Xavier/Yadina/Brad: Wow!
At least, that's the big idea.
Let's see if it works...
Wow! It worked!
The energy from the moving water is making electricity!
Houses now have lights.
The city has street-lamps.
And streetcars can take people from place to place!
Xavier/Yadina/Brad: Amazing! Yadina: Good job Nikola!
Xavier: If Nikola can make this big idea work,
maybe I can bring the museum to my friend in Japan!
I just need to keep thinking big.
Yadina: You're not going to send the museum
over Niagara Falls, are you? Yadina/Brad: (laughter)
Yadina: Are you?
Xavier: Berby? Let's go home!
Nikola: Wow!
(zap)
Hi, Hikari! Hikari: Hi, Xavier!
Have you figured out how to show me the museum?
Xavier: No, not yet. I just--whoa!
Hikari: (gasp) Awesome!
Xavier: I've got it!
Hikari, I know how to bring the museum to you!
♪ (playful music) ♪
Okay, Yadina, drive it to the dinosaur exhibit.
Hikari, wait til you see the T-Rex!
Hikari: Murray? I've heard so much about him!
(gasp) He's big!
Yadina: Yup! Almost as big as Xavier's big thinking.
(zap)
Xavier: Nikola Tesla was one of the biggest thinkers ever!
He figured out how to use electricity
to power so many things we use every day.
Yadina: And how to make toys move with remote controls.
Brad: Wheee!
Yadina: Oh, Doctor Zoom!
Xavier: Thanks for joining our awesome adventure
to meet Nikola Tesla.
Who used to be a kid, just like you and me.
Yadina: So kids like you can change the world!
I am Yadina.
Brad: I am Brad. Whooohooo!
Xavier: I am Xavier.
And I will always think big.
Just like Nikola Tesla!

Yadina/Xavier: Whoohoo! Brad: Whooaaa!
Brad: Ooof!
Urgh, Urgh!
Uh, a little help, guys?
Yadina: Hi there! And welcome to the show.
Today we're meeting someone very daring.
Nellie Bly.
Xavier: Nellie was a journalist.
That's someone who's curious about people and places,
and writes about them.
Brad: She went on some big adventures.
Which can be a little scary.
Yadina: But Nellie was bold.
That means she was brave and willing to try new things.
Xavier: Like how I don't know
which big red button starts the show,
and which opens the octopus t*nk,
Brad: Wait, What? Octopus t*nk?
Xavier: But I'm gonna boldly press one and find out.
Brad: Which one is it? Which one is it?
Brad: Aaaahhhh! Yadina: Well, that answers that.
Brad: Press the other button!!
(zap)
Xavier: Go Brad! Go Brad!
(panting)
Brad: Weeee!
Xavier: Woohoo! Yeah!
(panting)
Brad: Ohh!
(panting)
Oh, ha!
♪ (playful music) ♪
Uhhhh, ahh!
Ahh, ahh, ahhhh!
Uhhhhh!
Yes!! I did it!
All the way around the playground!
Xavier/Yadina: Woooohoooo!
Yadina: My turn.
You stay here, Dr. Zoom.
This is my first time on the monkey bars
and things could get bananas.
Get it? Monkey bars?
Monkeys eat bananas?
Yeah, I know you get it.
Here I go. Weeeee!
Xavier/Brad: Go, Yadina, Go!
Xavier: Yeah! Go Yadina!
Yadina: Woooohooo!
Woohoo yeah!
Bigger Kid: Hey, careful. You don't want to fall.
Brad: You can do it, Yadina. I know!
Yadina: Ahhhh...
Xavier: You okay, Yadina?
You don't have to go across the monkey bars,
if you don't want to.
Yadina: I do want to. It's just...
I'm a little scared.
Xavier: I was scared my first time, too.
But if you really want to,
then I think you should be brave
and give it a try.
Yadina: (deep breath)
Ughhh!
Yadina: Um, Xavier?
Now what?
Xavier: Let go with one hand so you can swing forward
and grab the next bar.
Yadina: Let go? But... but...I'll fall.
Xavier: I'm right here.
Yadina: Uh-uh, too scary.
I want down.
Brad: That was a great try, Yadina.
You almost made it all the way around.
Yadina: But I wanted to go the whole way.
(sigh) I just don't know how.
Hmm mm. Of course!
Brilliant idea, Dr Zoom.
To the secret museum!
Brad: (sighs)
Wait up!

Xavier: I wonder who the Secret Museum will send us to meet?

Yadina: And where we'll go?
Brad: And when?
Yadina: Look out below! Xavier: Whoohooo!
Xavier/Yadina: Hi Berby!
Brad: Hi Berby! Berby: Hi Brad.
Brad: Ooof!
Xavier: (humming) Berby: Whoooo!
We're getting something.
Brad: It's a...travel bag?
Yadina: Maybe the Secret Museum thinks
I should travel to a faraway place,
where I can become a monkey bar master.
Xavier: That would be awesome.
Nellie Bly.
That's, who we're going to meet.
Yadina: In Pennsylvania.
Brad: In .
Over years ago.
Yadina: Do you really think Nellie Bly can help me go
all the way around the playground?
Xavier: Only one way to find out.
Ready for adventure? Yadina: Ready!
Brad: Ready to think about it.
Hmmm...Okay, ready.
Berby: (bleep blarp bloop)
Yadina: Here we go!
Berby: (bleep blarp)
Xavier: It's happening!
Yadina: Hang on Dr Zoom!
Xavier: Woooohoooo! Brad: Woaaaah!
Berby: Whooohooo!
(zap)
Xavier: Uahh! Pennsylvania in was cold.
All: Uahhhhh!
Yadina: That's because it's winter time.
Xavier: Ahhh, much warmer.
Nellie: You wanna talk warm?
Check this place out. Singapore!
It's always hot there!
I can't wait to go some day!
Brad: Uhmmm! (mumbles)
Yadina: What did you say?
Berby: (bleep blarp)
Xavier: Hey, that's Nellie Bly.
Brad: That's what I said! Berby: Mmm hmm.
Xavier: Thanks Berby!
Nellie: I can't wait to visit all sorts of new places.
Maybe even travel around the world.
Yadina: Around the whole world?
Whoa! That sounds even scarier,
than going around the whole playground.
What if you trip?
Or get sea sick?
Or forget your best turtle friend?
Nellie: Hmm, that wouldn't be good...
But, when you really want to do something, be bold!
Yadina: Bold?
Nellie: In other words, be brave and try new things.
Albert: See ya, Nellie.
I'm going sledding down the big hill.
Nellie: I've never been down the big hill before.
Let's go!
Albert: Sorry...the big hill is a little too big for you.
But we'll play later, okay?
Nellie: Ahhh...
But, I want to go sledding, too.
And I will!
Brad: Uh oh.
Albert: Whooohooo! Yupeeee! Yes!
Whoohooo!
All: Woah!
Yadina: That hill is super big.
Are you sure you want to go down it?
What if you fall off your sled?
Nellie: It's just a bit of snow.
When you really want to do something, be bold!
I'm coming down!
Look out for me!
Woooohoooo!
Aaaahhhh! (giggle)
Woooohoooo!
Yadina: Yeah! Wooohooo!
Nellie: (laughing) Aaaahh!
Xavier: Oh! Yadina: Yeah!
Albert: Good job, Nellie!
Kids: Yeah! Woohoo!
Xavier: Let's try it.
Yadina: Okay. Let's do it!
Xavier: Here we go...
Yadina: Ah, I change my mind.
It's too scary... Xavier: Uh ohhh.
Yadina: Nooooo! Xaavier: Wooooaaaa!
Yadina: Get us out of here Berby!
(zap)
Xavier: Ugh!
Yadina: Hey, the bag from the Secret Museum!
Brad: Uuuhg, uugh! (mumble talk)
I mean, where are we?
Nellie: You're just in time to see me off
on my latest adventure.
I'm a journalist now, writing a big story
about my very own trip around the world.
Xavier: Ahhhh, you're doing it?
Yadina: Going all the way around the world?
Nellie: Oh yes.
And I'm going to do it faster than anyone ever.
Yadina: But, what if you can't do it?
Aren't you scared?
Nellie: Some people think I can't do it.
But I'm ready to prove them wrong.
When you really want to do something, be bold!
(ship's horn sounding) Yadina: Do you think, she can really travel
around the whole world
faster than anyone ever?
Berby: (bleep)
Xavier: I think we're about to find out.

Yadina: Wasn't Nellie Bly the coolest person ever?
Xavier: Ah-mazing fact: her trip around the world was inspired
by a book called Around the World in Days,
by Jules Verne.

about someone who travelled around the whole world,
but Nellie Bly turned it into a real adventure.
Yadina: Thanks for joining our awesome adventure
to meet Nellie Bly.
Brad: Who used to be a kid, just like you and me.
Xavier: So kids like you can change the world.

Xavier: If Nikola can make this big idea work,
maybe I can bring the museum to my friend in Japan!
I just need to keep thinking big.
Yadina: You're not going to send the museum
over Niagara Falls, are you? Yadina/Brad: (laughter)
Yadina: Are you?
Xavier: Berby? Let's go home!
Nikola: Wow!
(zap)
Hi, Hikari! Hikari: Hi, Xavier!
Have you figured out how to show me the museum?
Xavier: No, not yet. I just--whoa!
Hikari: (gasp) Awesome!
Xavier: I've got it!
Hikari, I know how to bring the museum to you!
♪ (playful music) ♪
Okay, Yadina, drive it to the dinosaur exhibit.
Hikari, wait til you see the T-Rex!
Hikari: Murray? I've heard so much about him!
(gasp) He's big!
Yadina: Yup! Almost as big as Xavier's big thinking.
(zap)
Xavier: Nikola Tesla was one of the biggest thinkers ever!
He figured out how to use electricity
to power so many things we use every day.
Yadina: And how to make toys move with remote controls.
Brad: Wheee!
Yadina: Oh, Doctor Zoom!
Xavier: Thanks for joining our awesome adventure
to meet Nikola Tesla.
Who used to be a kid, just like you and me.
Yadina: So kids like you can change the world!
I am Yadina.
Brad: I am Brad. Whooohooo!
Xavier: I am Xavier.
And I will always think big.
Just like Nikola Tesla!

Yadina: Dr. Zoom, now isn't the time to play scientist!
Yadina/Xavier: Whoohoo! Brad: Whooaaa!
Brad: Ooof!
Urgh, Urgh!
Uh, a little help, guys?
Yadina: Hi there! And welcome to the show.
Today we're meeting someone very daring.
Nellie Bly.
Xavier: Nellie was a journalist.
That's someone who's curious about people and places,
and writes about them.
Brad: She went on some big adventures.
Which can be a little scary.
Yadina: But Nellie was bold.
That means she was brave and willing to try new things.
Xavier: Like how I don't know
which big red button starts the show,
and which opens the octopus t*nk,
Brad: Wait, What? Octopus t*nk?
Xavier: But I'm gonna boldly press one and find out.
Brad: Which one is it? Which one is it?
Brad: Aaaahhhh! Yadina: Well, that answers that.
Brad: Press the other button!!
(zap)
Xavier: Go Brad! Go Brad!
(panting)
Brad: Weeee!
Xavier: Woohoo! Yeah!
(panting)
Brad: Ohh!
(panting)
Oh, ha!
♪ (playful music) ♪
Uhhhh, ahh!
Ahh, ahh, ahhhh!
Uhhhhh!
Yes!! I did it!
All the way around the playground!
Xavier/Yadina: Woooohoooo!
Yadina: My turn.
You stay here, Dr. Zoom.
This is my first time on the monkey bars
and things could get bananas.
Get it? Monkey bars?
Monkeys eat bananas?
Yeah, I know you get it.
Here I go. Weeeee!
Xavier/Brad: Go, Yadina, Go!
Xavier: Yeah! Go Yadina!
Yadina: Woooohooo!
Woohoo yeah!
Bigger Kid: Hey, careful. You don't want to fall.
Brad: You can do it, Yadina. I know!
Yadina: Ahhhh...
Xavier: You okay, Yadina?
You don't have to go across the monkey bars,
if you don't want to.
Yadina: I do want to. It's just...
I'm a little scared.
Xavier: I was scared my first time, too.
But if you really want to,
then I think you should be brave
and give it a try.
Yadina: (deep breath)
Ughhh!
Yadina: Um, Xavier?
Now what?
Xavier: Let go with one hand so you can swing forward
and grab the next bar.
Yadina: Let go? But... but...I'll fall.
Xavier: I'm right here.
Yadina: Uh-uh, too scary.
I want down.
Brad: That was a great try, Yadina.
You almost made it all the way around.
Yadina: But I wanted to go the whole way.
(sigh) I just don't know how.
Hmm mm. Of course!
Brilliant idea, Dr Zoom.
To the secret museum!
Brad: (sighs)
Wait up!
♪ (playful music) ♪
Xavier: I wonder who the Secret Museum will send us to meet?
♪ (Egyptian music) ♪
Yadina: And where we'll go?
Brad: And when?
Yadina: Look out below! Xavier: Whoohooo!
Xavier/Yadina: Hi Berby!
Brad: Hi Berby! Berby: Hi Brad.
Brad: Ooof!
Xavier: (humming) Berby: Whoooo!
We're getting something.
Brad: It's a...travel bag?
Yadina: Maybe the Secret Museum thinks
I should travel to a faraway place,
where I can become a monkey bar master.
Xavier: That would be awesome.
Nellie Bly.
That's, who we're going to meet.
Yadina: In Pennsylvania.
Brad: In .
Over years ago.
Yadina: Do you really think Nellie Bly can help me go
all the way around the playground?
Xavier: Only one way to find out.
Ready for adventure? Yadina: Ready!
Brad: Ready to think about it.
Hmmm...Okay, ready.
Berby: (bleep blarp bloop)
Yadina: Here we go!
Berby: (bleep blarp)
Xavier: It's happening!
Yadina: Hang on Dr Zoom!
Xavier: Woooohoooo! Brad: Woaaaah!
Berby: Whooohooo!
(zap)
Xavier: Uahh! Pennsylvania in was cold.
All: Uahhhhh!
Yadina: That's because it's winter time.
Xavier: Ahhh, much warmer.
Nellie: You wanna talk warm?
Check this place out. Singapore!
It's always hot there!
I can't wait to go some day!
Brad: Uhmmm! (mumbles)
Yadina: What did you say?
Berby: (bleep blarp)
Xavier: Hey, that's Nellie Bly.
Brad: That's what I said! Berby: Mmm hmm.
Xavier: Thanks Berby!
Nellie: I can't wait to visit all sorts of new places.
Maybe even travel around the world.
Yadina: Around the whole world?
Whoa! That sounds even scarier,
than going around the whole playground.
What if you trip?
Or get sea sick?
Or forget your best turtle friend?
Nellie: Hmm, that wouldn't be good...
But, when you really want to do something, be bold!
Yadina: Bold?
Nellie: In other words, be brave and try new things.
Albert: See ya, Nellie.
I'm going sledding down the big hill.
Nellie: I've never been down the big hill before.
Let's go!
Albert: Sorry...the big hill is a little too big for you.
But we'll play later, okay?
Nellie: Ahhh...
But, I want to go sledding, too.
And I will!
Brad: Uh oh.
Albert: Whooohooo! Yupeeee! Yes!
Whoohooo!
All: Woah!
Yadina: That hill is super big.
Are you sure you want to go down it?
What if you fall off your sled?
Nellie: It's just a bit of snow.
When you really want to do something, be bold!
I'm coming down!
Look out for me!
Woooohoooo!
Aaaahhhh! (giggle)
Woooohoooo!
Yadina: Yeah! Wooohooo!
Nellie: (laughing) Aaaahh!
Xavier: Oh! Yadina: Yeah!
Albert: Good job, Nellie!
Kids: Yeah! Woohoo!
Xavier: Let's try it.
Yadina: Okay. Let's do it!
Xavier: Here we go...
Yadina: Ah, I change my mind.
It's too scary... Xavier: Uh ohhh.
Yadina: Nooooo! Xaavier: Wooooaaaa!
Yadina: Get us out of here Berby!
(zap)
Xavier: Ugh!
Yadina: Hey, the bag from the Secret Museum!
Brad: Uuuhg, uugh! (mumble talk)
I mean, where are we?
Nellie: You're just in time to see me off
on my latest adventure.
I'm a journalist now, writing a big story
about my very own trip around the world.
Xavier: Ahhhh, you're doing it?
Yadina: Going all the way around the world?
Nellie: Oh yes.
And I'm going to do it faster than anyone ever.
Yadina: But, what if you can't do it?
Aren't you scared?
Nellie: Some people think I can't do it.
But I'm ready to prove them wrong.
When you really want to do something, be bold!
(ship's horn sounding) Yadina: Do you think, she can really travel
around the whole world
faster than anyone ever?
Berby: (bleep)
Xavier: I think we're about to find out.

Xavier: Faster than anyone ever.
Yadina: Even though it was totally new,
and maybe even a bit scary,
it was something she really wanted to do.
So she did.
Brad: Like how you really want to go around
the whole playground.
Yadina: And I will.
I just have to...
be bold!
Bye, Nellie. And thank you!
Nellie: See you later!
Xavier: Berby, let's go home.
Berby: (bleep blarp bloop)

Brad: I'm so proud of you!
Xavier: I knew you could do it.
Yadina: Thanks, guys!
(zap)
Yadina: Wasn't Nellie Bly the coolest person ever?
Xavier: Ah-mazing fact: her trip around the world was inspired
by a book called Around the World in Days,
by Jules Verne.
Brad: It was a made-up story
about someone who travelled around the whole world,
but Nellie Bly turned it into a real adventure.
Yadina: Thanks for joining our awesome adventure
to meet Nellie Bly.
Brad: Who used to be a kid, just like you and me.
Xavier: So kids like you can change the world.
I am Xavier.
Brad: I am Brad.
Yadina: I am Yadina.
And when I really want to do something,
I will always be bold,
just like Nellie Bly.
