Xavier: What have I got myself into?

Brad: Okay... hehe,

You slide down first, Xavier!

Xavier: Hold on, I, uh...

need to tie my shoelaces.

Yadina: But you're wearing rubber boots.

Xavier: I mean, I'm cold and

I haven't done my stretches yet.

Brad: We've been walking for the last minutes,

I'm soo hot!

Yadina: Do you need help sliding down, Xavier?

Xavier: What? Me? Need help? No...

But, um, if you guys are scared and need help,

then we should definitely go to the Secret Museum!

Brad: Well, that was different.

Yadina: I don't remember saying I was scared...

Did you?

Brad: It's usually a given.

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

Whoohoo!

Yadina: Or how far back in time we'll go?

Brad: I'm going to find some stairs!

Waaaah!

Yadina: Look out below! Xavier: Wooohoooo!

Brad: Woah!

Xavier/Yadina: Hi Berby! Berby: (blee-blarp)

Brad: Hi Berby! Berby: (blee-bloop)

Ooof!

Xavier: (humming) Berby: Whooo!

Xavier: We're getting something!

Yadina: It's a...

..toothpick for giants?

Brad: Well that can't be good. Berby: (bleep-bloop)

Xavier: Whatever it is, it belonged to him:

Sir Edmund Hillary.

That's who we're going to meet!

Yadina: In New Zealand, in .

Brad: That's almost a hundred years ago!

Xavier: Hm, I wonder how Sir Edmund Hillary can help me..

Um, I mean, you guys slide down the humongous snowy hill...

Yadina: There's only one way to find out!

Xavier: Ready for adventure?

Yadina: Ready!

Brad: (exhales loudly) Ready. He he.

Berby: (bleep blarp bloop)

Yadina: Here we go!

Berby: (blarp bloop)

Xavier: It's happening! Yadina: Hang on Dr Zoom!

Xavier: Woohoo! Brad: Whoah!

Berby: Whoohooo!

(zap)

Xavier: So this is New Zealand in ...

Yadina: Woooow, it's nice.

Brad: Yeah. So peaceful and quiet..

Edmund Hillary: Y'arrrg! Brad/Xavier/Yadina: (startled)

Edmund: Who be brave enough to set foot on me pirate ship?

Brad: Pirates?

Edmund: Relax, matey.

I'm just pretending to be a pirate.

Like the ones in my book!

Yadina: Oh, phew!

Edmund: Avast, ye tree!

Xavier: Hey, that's Edmund Hillary.

Thanks, Berby. Berby: Mm hmm.

Edmund: So, ye be wanting to join me

brave band of pirates, yar?

Xavier: Y'arrr betcha!

We be the bravest of the brave!

Edmund: Hm. Me thinks ye just be a bunch of char...

char-la..

..tans?

Char-la-tans!

Yadina: What's a "char-la-tan"?

Brad: Hmm. Beats me. Xavier?

Xavier: Easy! It's a...

Um, actually I have no idea.

Edmund: I bet my sister would know what "charlatan" means.

I'm going to go ask for help.

Xavier: Really? But brave pirates don't ask for help!

Edmund: Asking for help isn't always easy,

so that's what makes it brave!

I have to ask for help when I need it.

And to finish this story, I need it.

I'll be back!

Xavier: Is asking for help really the brave thing to do?

Yadina: Dr. Zoom is super brave,

and she asks for help all the time.

Edmund: Ok! My sister says

a 'charlatan' is someone who pretends

to be something they're not.

Yadina: Then we're charlatans for sure!

'Cuz we're pretending to be brave.

Xavier: Pretending? To be brave? Who is?

I can slide down a super steep snowy hill without any help.

Brad: Um, I think Yadina meant,

we're pretending to be

brave pirates. Remember?

Xavier: Ooooh right. (chuckles nervously)

Edmund: Now, where were we...

Oh yeah. En garde!

Yeah! Yeah! Wooho! Wow!

Yadina: (giggles) This is fun,

but, how's it helping us be brave enough

to slide down the big hill back home?

Brad: Uh oh. Looks like we're about to find out.

Berby: Whoohooo!

Brad: Woaah! (zap)

Brad: BRR! Oh boy! Where are we?

When, when are we?

Berby: (blarp bloop)

All: (relieved sighs)

Brad: So warm. Berby: (blarp bloop)

Xavier: Berby says it's years later.

Yadina: That takes care of the 'when', but

what about the 'where'?

Edmund: Welcome to the Himalayan mountains!

Xavier: Edmund!

Yadina: Hey, he has the giant toothpick

from the Secret Museum!

Brad: Um, pardon me, but

that wouldn't belong to a giant...would it?

Edmund: (laughs) No, this is my ice axe.

I use it to climb huge mountains all over the world.

I'm a real adventurer now!

Xavier/Yadina/Brad: Whooaaa...

Edmund: Just you wait. I'm here to climb

the biggest of them all,

Mount Everest!

♪ (majestic music) ♪

Brad: You're going to climb

alll the way up there?

Edmund: You betcha!

Yadina: To the very top?

Edmund: You betcha!

Xavier: All by yourself?

Edmund: You-- wait, what?

No, of course not!

Xavier: But I thought you're a real brave adventurer now?

Edmund: I am!

And I always ask for help when I need it.

And to climb this mountain,

I'm gonna need the best help I can get.

Right, Tenzing?

This is Tenzing Norgay, my Sherpa friend.

Xavier/Yadina: Hi. Brad: Nice to meet you.

Yadina: Um, What's a Sherpa?

Edmund: Someone who knows a lot about mountain climbing.

Tenzing: And I happen to know a lot

about this particular mountain.

I've never been to the top, though.

Edmund: We're going to be the first!

So let's get climbing!

Brad: Uhh, is it too late to say I'd rather play pirates instead?

Or...no?

Xavier: Down here!

Tenzing: Are you sure you don't need any help?

Xavier: Who, me? (nervous giggle) Need help?

No, I got this...

Edmund: I'm okay.

I've crossed a lot of crevasses before,

so I thought I could do it by myself.

But I quickly realized I needed help.

Thanks Tenzing. Tenzing: Of course!

It's important to always ask for help when you need it.

Even if it's hard to do sometimes.

Tenzing: Wooohoo! Alright! Edmund: Wooohoo! We got the top!

Yadina: Wooow...

Edmund and Tenzing helped each other climb

the tallest mountain in the world.

Brad: I'm glad the Secret Museum sent us to meet them.

Even if I'm still not sure why.

Xavier: I think I know why...

Um, I was scared to slide down the big hill back home

all by myself.

And, uh... I was too afraid to ask for help

because I thought it meant I wasn't brave.

Yadina: But you're the bravest brother ever!

Xavier: Thanks, Yadina.

And now that I know asking for help is brave...

Will you guys help me?

Brad: Of course!

Xavier: Berby, let's go home!

Berby: Wahoooo!

(exhales) Ready, brave adventurers?

Yadina: (excited) Ready!

Brand: (nervous) Ready.. ee, hee hee...oh boy.

Xavier: Then leeeet's GOOOOO!!

Xavier/Yadina/Brad: Wheee!

Brad: Yeah! This is awesome!

Xavier/Yadina/Brad: Wooohoo!

Xavier: Meeting Sir Edmund Hillary was ah-mazing!

Brad: He and Tenzing Norgay

were the first two people ever

to climb Mount Everest.

Yadina: Edmund also explored the North and South Poles.

Xavier: Lots of people helped him along the way.

And in return, Edmund helped others

by building schools and hospitals.

Thanks for joining our awesome adventure

to meet Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay.

Brad: Who used to be kids, just like you and me.

Yadina: So kids like you can change the world!

I am Yadina.

Brad: I am Brad.

Xavier: I am Xavier, and I will always ask for help

when I need it.

Just like Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay.

Brad: Cool! Yadina: Mm hmm.

Grammy always likes it when I sing for her.

Yadina: The REST of the family?

Xavier: Of course!

The whole family is coming this year.

Uncle Theo, Aunt Lila, cousin Jonas,

the twins Priya and Janina...

...the triplets Regis, Alberto, and Brandon..

Yadina: (nervous sighs)

Brad: What's wrong, Yadina?

Yadina: I can't sing for all those people.

That's too many people!

And waaaay too scary!

Xavier: I didn't know singing in front of people

made you nervous.

Yadina: Not just nervous.

Really super duper nervous!

What if I'm too nervous to sing?

What if I get up there and nothing but a

"aaaaaahhh" comes out?

What am I going to do?

Dr. Zoom: (squeek)

Celia Cruz.

Yadina: We're going to meet her in Cuba.

Brad: That's over years ago!

Yadina: I wonder if Celia Cruz can help me sing

Xavier: Only one way to find out...

Celia: ...Hello.

Yadina: Hi! You have an awesome voice.

Celia: Thank you.

Sorry I hid, it's just,

singing in front of people

makes me feel nervous.

Yadina: Really? Me, too!

I'm supposed to sing

at my Grandma's birthday tomorrow,

but my whole family will be there.

Celia: Oh, that sounds hard.

I understand.

My cousin entered me in a singing contest!

Yadina: A contest?

Like, with people watching you?

Celia: Yes! It means I have to sing

in front of a lot of people,

including judges. Today!

Yadina: Uh oh...! (thud)

Celia: You're telling me! (thud)

Xavier: So, what are you going to do Celia?

Celia: I may feel nervous about singing in front of people,

but, I have a secret trick.

Yadina: Is it a Secret Museum

that sends you back in time?

Celia: Ah... No. It's these!

Brad: (gasps) The sticks! From the Secret Museum.

Celia: When you're nervous, holding something special

can help you feel better.

And my claves are very special.

Brad: Soooo, they're not sticks?

Celia: (chuckles) No, claves are a musical instrument!

See? (claves clicking)

(claves clicking)

I love how they feel and how they sound.

They remind me how much I love music.

That makes them very special.

Holding them helps me feel better.

And when I feel better...

♪ Do re mi fa so la si dooo ♪

Brad: You can sing!

Xavier: Do you think holding them will help you sing

at the contest, Celia?

Yadina: In front of all those people, and judges?

Celia: I hope so.

(sighs)

It's time to go find out!

Oh!

I'm feeling veeeery nervous.

Yadina: Me, too. And I'm not even singing!

Oh, Dr. Zoom!

Host: Next up, Celia Cruz!

Celia: (gasps) Ooooh no...

Xavier: Celia, remember your secret trick?

Celia: Right. When you're nervous,

holding something special can help you feel better.

I can do this.

Celia: I won! I really won!

Yadina: Celia did it!

Xavier: (gasps) The prize is cake?

Celia: Yes! And I'm happy to share.

Brad: Think we could win some milk to go with it?

Yadina: If holding something special

could help Celia sing for those judges,

I wonder, if it could help her sing for even more people?

Berby: (bleep blarp)

Brad: But, wait-- Xavier: --the cake!

Brad: Where are we? Berby: (blarp bloop)

Xavier: Berby says it's years later.

Yadina: Celia!

Celia: Hi, friends!

Brad: Are you in another singing contest?

Celia: (chuckles) No. After winning that cake contest,

I kept on singing for more and more people.

Until...

Yadina/Brad/Xavier: Whoaaaa...

Yadina: That is a lot of people.

Don't you feel super duper nervous?

Celia: Remember what I told you?

When you're nervous, holding something special

can help you feel better.

I kept on holding my special claves, gaining confidence

each time I sang.

And now, I don't need to hold them anymore!

I still like to have them around.

They are very special.
