01x04 - Lullaby for Baby Vlad / Space Is the Place

Post by bunniefuu »

We live in a big, beautiful world.

I'm Leo.

I'm Andy.

And I'm Carmen.

Our parents work in a circus

that travels all around the world,

and we travel with them.

So, we never know where in the world we will end up next.

(train horn blaring)

But wherever we go,

we know that Luna the moon will be there with us.

(upbeat whistling)

Carmen: Lullalby for Baby Vlad

(crowd cheering)

(pop)

(boing)

(pins crashing)

(audience gasps)

Pins: Taa-daa!

(audience cheering)

Hockbar: Melvini's! You're done already?

Aw, you're kidding me!

Who's performing next Mr. Hockbar?

Our visiting act from Moscow...

The Kolbasa Juggling Durov Bears!

And they are missing! Where are they!?

Kolbasa juggling?

What's a Kolbasa? What's a Moscow?

I think Kolbasa is a kind of sausage...

And I think Moscow is where the Circo traveled to today!

Let's ask the Magic Globe!

Magic Globe: You're right, Carmen!

Today we are in the amazing city of Moscow,

which is in the country of Russia!

In Moscow, onion shaped buildings will dazzle you!

And there is a wonderful history of music and dance,

the Bolshoi Ballet and the Cossack Dance,

are popular in Russia.

They all make Russia a lively place to be.

Most of the people in Moscow speak Russian.

Magic Globe, how do you say 'goodbye' in Russian?

The way to say Goodbye in Russian

is Da Svidahnia!

Oh! And Kolbasa is a popular Russian sausage!

Enjoy Moscow!

All: Da Svidahnia, Magic Globe!

Hockbar: The Kolbasa Juggling Bears have arrived!!

DUROVs! It's time for you to perform!

Hello, Mr. Hockbar!

Carmen: Hello, Durov family.

I'm Carmen, and this is Leo and Andy!

Boris: Hello, friends!

I am Boris and this is Viktoriya!

We came here with our little baby Vlad.

Little baby?

Awww, I love little babies!

When can we meet the tiny guy??

You can meet him now if you like!

Say hello little Vlad!

Vlad: (gurgles)

Isn't he a bit...

BIG for a baby?

Please, Durovs the audience is waiting!

I'm sure you can watch our Baby Vlad while we perform.

Here! Don't forget to put him down for his nap!

Da Svidahnia!

Viktoriya: Da Svidahnia!

(cooing)

Boris: Oh Mr. Hockbar. I almost forgot to tell you!

The only way to set Baby Vlad to sleep

is to sing him his favorite lullaby,

"Bayushki Bayu".

Otherwise he'll get verrrry cranky!

Bayushki Bayu?

Of course! Bayushki Bayu.

Gotta go.

(cooing)

(chuckles) I do not have time

to put this baby down for a nap.

We can put him down for his nap, Mr. Hockbar!

Leo: W-we can?

Great! Although, I think there is something

I'm suppose to tell you.

It's escaping me right now...

Oh well! If I remember it, I'll let you know!

Thanks, kids!

(gurgles)

Andy: How hard can it be?

Baby Vlad: (cries) Wahhh bayushki bayu bayushki bayu!

Carmen: What's Bayuskhi Bayu?

Andy: I don't know.

But he sure doesn't look like he wants a nap!

Leo: Don't worry friends!

I just gave baby Vlad his blanket and pacifier!

He should be asleep in no time!

Hmm... I know!

How about some Spanish guitar, Vlad!

(soft guitar)

(rattles)

Vlad! That's not a rattle!

Wahhhh! Bayushki!

Bayushki Bayu!

There's that Bayushki Bayu thing again.

Look! I found this old Russian Jack-in-the-Box,

this could do the trick!

(calm music)

Oh that sounds really nice!

Waaahhhhhh! Wahhhhh!

(splat)

I think we're gonna need some help.

Vlad: (raspberries)

Luna: Helloooo? Anyone hooome?

(struggles)

Hello friends!

All: Luna!!!!

♪ Lunaaaa come and play! ♪

♪ Luna's here, what do you say? ♪

♪ Luna, bright as day! ♪

All: Show us the world, lead the way!

Hello, everyone. Welcome to Moscow!

I came to watch the show,

but I thought I'd stop and say hello first!

(trill) Pbbbt!

Hi, Baby Vlad!

Oof! We're sure glad to see you Luna,

we can't seem to put baby Vlad down for his nap!

Yeah, and he keeps saying something

about a Bayushki Bayu, whatever that is...

Bayushki Bayu...

I think it's a Russian lullaby

but I can't remember the tune. Hmmmm...

He's been saying it so much that

if it's a lullaby,

it might be the only thing that puts him to sleep.

Well, there's so much great music in Moscow,

I can definitely find it out there!

I bet I'll know it when I hear it!

I've never heard any Russian music before.

Can I go out with you to find out what it's like?

That's a great idea, Carmen!

Can you guys stay here and watch baby Vlad

while Carmen and I go into Moscow and look for the lullaby?

(babbles)

Leo: We can try...

Yay!

Carmen, Lets go find that lullaby!

Vlad, can I have my hat back please?

Luna: Just wait 'til you hear some Russian music Carmen!

The Bolshoi Theater has great music,

and maybe they will be playing the Bayushki Bayu lullaby there!

But where is the Bolshoi Theater?

Right here, actually!

Carmen: Wowwww!

Carmen: This theater is wonderful!

Look, Carmen! There's a ballet going on!

Audience: Shhh!

Luna: Sorry!!

(upbeat music)



This is so amazing Luna,

and just listen to that Russian music!

Luna? What's wrong?

It's happening again, Carmen...

you know what happens when I hear music...

I gotta dance!!

Audience: (cheers)

Wowwww! (gasp)

Yayyyy Luna!

Hmm... I wonder how Andy and Leo are doing with baby Vlad?

(cries)

I don't think walking Vlad around the room is working,

I think he's getting cranky!

(babbles)

And he keeps grabbing stuff from his stroller!

What else can we do, Leo?

Without the Bayushki Bayu Lullaby, we're hopeless!

(babbles)

(slam)

(sniffs) Ahhhh....

Andy: Run for it!

(sneeze) Ahhhhhh Choooooooo!!!

(crash)

(wheels turning)

Luna: Wow, ballet is very popular in Russia.

Wasn't the ballet fantastic?

Yeah, it sure was a magical experience,

but we didn't hear the lullaby at the ballet.

We still need to find it

so we can get Baby Vlad to sleep.

You're right, it wasn't Bayushki Bayu,

but I think I hear some more music

up ahead in Moscow's famous Red Square!

Carmen: Oooh, it sounds like fun, let's go listen!

Maybe they will play what we are looking for!



Dancer: Luna! Hello! Come!

Join me in my Cossack dance.

We haven't danced for years!

Yes, please!

(upbeat russian music)

I love the Cossack Dance!

It reminds us of our Country -- Russia!

It sure looks fun!

It is fun, but the music isn't the

Bayushki Bayu Lullaby...

Maybe we should keep looking?

(humming)

Luna: Do you hear that?!

What is it?

I think I hear a lullaby!

That's so soothing!

Let's go see who's humming it!

Bayushki Bayu little one...

Excuse me, what was that you were

saying just now?

Bayushki Bayu?

It's what we say to babies to calm them down.

Just like you say "hush-a-bye" in English,

we say "Bayushki Bayu" in Russian.

It's my grandson's favorite lullaby.

We've been searching all over

Moscow for that Bayushki Bayu lullaby!

I was just about to sing to him now, if you'd like to listen?

Both: Yes, please!!

♪ Spi, mladenets moy prekrasnyy, Bayushki bayu. ♪

♪ Tikho smotrit... ♪

♪ mesyats yasnyy, V kolybel' tvoyu. ♪

♪ When you've got a bear who needs to sleep... ♪

♪ Sing this lullaby. ♪

♪ Sing it softly while he's counting sheep... ♪

♪ Now, he's a sleepy guy! ♪

♪ Let me tryyyyyyyyy... ♪

♪ Spi, mladenets moy prekrasnyy, ♪ (cries)

♪ Bayushki bayu... Lala-laa-lalala ♪

♪ Tikho smotrit... mesyats yasnyy, ♪

♪ V kolybel' tvoyu. ♪

(snoring)

Carmen: We did it...!

We even put Andy and Leo to sleep...

baby Vlad must've worn them out.

Viktoriya: Oh, our sweet baby Vlad is quietly napping!

Boris: Thank you so much, young one.

We hope he wasn't too much trouble for you.

For me? No!

Actually, Luna and I had a fun time,

learning about lots of Russian music.

Where is our good friend Luna, anyway?

Is it that time again --

that time she disappears into the sky?

I don't know, I should find her

and thank her for her help today!

Good night Mama and Papa Durov!

Luna: (humming)

Carmen: Luna?

Oh hi, Carmen!

It was time for me to get back into the sky.

Were Mama and Papa happy to see their Baby Vlad

napping peacefully?

Yes, they were.

Thank you for your help today!

I feel like there is so much more to learn about Russia!

(yawns) But I think I'm ready for

my own lullaby to put me to sleep.

Yes, there's always much more to learn about where ever we are,

but remember...

There's always tomorrow.

(whistling)

Hi, it's me, Leo!

I want to tell you a Russian tale about a Giant Turnip!

Ready?

There once lived a Russian Farmer

who had fields full of turnips.

One day, he came across

the biggest turnip he'd ever seen!

He tried to pull it out,

but he couldn't all by himself.

He called his wife to come help.

The two of them pulled together.

The giant turnip still wouldn't budge.

It was too big. They needed help.

They called on their grand-daughter.

The three of them tugged and tugged.

But the turnip wouldn't move.

Who could help now?

The Grand-daughter knew.

She called the dog!

(dog barks)

Even the dog's help didn't budge that turnip, though.

So the Dog did something he thought he'd never do:

(dog whining)

he called the cat for help.

(cat meows)

They all pulled and pulled, but that turnip wouldn't come.

A tiny mouse saw them and asked if they needed help.

"We sure do!" said the Cat.

"But no one's left to help us!"

"What about me?" asked the Mouse.

(efforts)

(pop)

(thuds)

They all looked at the mouse and wondered: how did he do it?

"Glad I could help" he said.

And that was: The End.

Leo: Space is the Place

Andy: Wheels greased?

Leo: Check!

Andy: Cardboard taped?

Leo: Check!

Andy: Space helmets?

Check...

Then we are clear for launch!

Next stop, the moon!

Lift-off in .........

(creaks)

Leo: Phew!

Umm, I think you might need to get out and push.

Carmen: Andy! Leo!

Honey and I have been looking all over for you two!

What are you doing up here?

Leo and I are playing astronaut!

What's an astronaut?

An astronaut is a person who goes into space.

Like us! Pretty sweet spaceship, huh?

Why would you want to visit space

when we have this beautiful country to explore!

Andy: I'm so crazy about space,

I don't even know what country we're in!

Honey: What's a country?!

Actually, that's kind of hard to explain.

Maybe the Magic Globe can tell us!

Magic Globe: I sure can, Carmen!

A country is an area of the world where people live

and there are lots of countries all over the world!

For example, Andy is from a country

called The United States of America...

Leo is from the country of Australia.

And Carmen is from the country of Mexico.

You can tell where one country starts

and the other ends by the lines on the globe.

What country are we in today, Magic Globe?

Today, we are in Russia, which is this country.

Right here.

Every country has cities and towns.

We are in the city of Moscow in Russia.

The way to say hello to a friend

in Russian is "preevyet".

All: Preevyet!

Pree-vyet!

Let's go explore Moscow!

Honey, no!

Honey... Come back!

Honey! A-ha!

There you are! Both: (screams) Aaaaaaaaaa---

Uh oh.

Wooo hooo!!!

We're going to the Moon!

I'm going to be sick!

Hup hup hup hup!

Hup? Hup? Hup?

Leo: (screams)

Both: (screams)

Leo: Yeeuch!

Oh no...

We're flying to the moon!

One small step for a frog-

And one giant leap for frog kind!

We really are on the Moon --

Luna the moon!

Hi, Andy! Hi, Leo!

How's the view up there?

♪ Luna, come and play! ♪

♪ Luna's here, whaddaya say? ♪

♪ Luna, bright as day! ♪

All: Show us the world, lead the way!

Hey guys!

I'd like you to meet my Russian friend, Marta.

All: Preevyet Marta!

Marta: Preevyet! Are you guys cosmonauts?

No, we're astronauts!

People who go into space.

They mean the same thing!

A Cosmonaut is a Russian person who goes up into space.

I love space!

But I think I lost my space ship.

Space ships are what they're called in the movies.

The scientific term is "space craft".

Say, um...

how do you know so much about space, anyway?

I love space too!

And I volunteer at the important space museum right here.

All: Whooaa! Cool rocket sculpture!

If you want to go inside a real spacecraft,

I can show you one in the museum.

Wow! We can go inside a real spacecraft?

Yes! Oh yesss!

Andy: This museum is amazing!

I've never seen so many different types of space craft!

I can't wait to go inside one!

The term "space craft" can describe

any vehicle or machine designed to fly in space.

There are some as small as a beachball

like the Sputnik Satellite...

And some...

as big as a football field,

like the giant, multi- room space station.

These days, people from many countries

have gone into space.

Carmen: Whoa, what's that?

That is Valentina Tereshkova's space scraft, Vostok .

She was the first woman in space!

She's a very famous Russian, and my personal hero!

Wow, I think she might be my new hero too!

Excuse me, are you THE moon?

Oh, why yes, actually yes I am!

Uh, can we get a picture with you

in front of the Lunar Rover?

Of course you can!

Say cheese!

All: Cheese!

Luna: Whoops!

Whoa!

Okay, Okay!

I never got my rover license!

So I, I Whoa-uh-uh-uh-uhoah!!

I don't think I...

Oof! Watch out, kids!

Runaway Rover!

All my volunteer hours have prepared me for this moment.

Andy, give me a boost!

Like this?

Perfect!

(rover neighes like a horse)

Easy girl! Whoa! Whoa! Easy! That's it! Easy girl!

Wow...

She's amazing...

Out of this world!

Now, let's go see a real space craft!

All: Yay!

Marta: Here we are!

This is what I was talking about!

Andy: It's so beautiful!!

Marta: This, my friends, is the Mir Space Station!

It's called a space station

because cosmonauts actually lived in it!

Leo: Lived? In this tiny thing?

Actually, this is just one part of

the space station...

The whole space craft is much bigger!

Come on, I'll show you inside!

Andy: Cool!

...Oops! A little help, please!

(struggles)

All: Wow!

Leo: You're right, Marta!

It looks just as cool on the inside!

There's so many... buttons!

Luna: That's right!

The Mir Station is also very special

because in here,

the Americans and the Russians worked together as a team!

Marta: If you look on the Mir's official badge...

The American space shuttle is landing on the Russian Mir!

In fact, Mir actually means "peace" in Russian!

That's amazing!

Andy: Hmmm...

Hmmm... But does this thing even work?

I thought we were actually going to fly in outer space.

Well, it doesn't go up into space anymore...

But maybe with a little Luna magic?

Hmmmmmmm. Well... Perhaps!

Why don't you press the BIG button that says SPACE, Andy?

Space?

But I don't see any button that--

Oh, that button that says space!

Leo: What's happening?

W-why're we floating?

Why don't you guys have a look outside and see where we are?

Wow! We're in space!

Which means... We're astronauts!

And cosmonauts!

We're flying, we're flying!

Whoa...! Ugh, I think I have space sickness...

Look at the space food!

It floats too!

Ooh! I want one! Ahhhhhh...

(laughs)

Look! I'm Valentina Tereshkova,

the first woman in space!

Andy: Come back, space food!

Ooh, sorry!

Here you go, Andy!

Thanks! I wanted to ask you Luna...

what's it like living in space?

Every day must be as fun as this!

Space is such an amazing place, Andy.

It sure is!

(upbeat music)

That was great, Luna!

I could just stay here forever...

Whoa! Look at the Earth from up here, guys.

There are no lines that separate countries!

Carmen: No lines that separate countries?

But how?

Look! It's beautiful.

It's the Earth. Our Earth.

I don't see different countries!

I just see green earth and blue water.

All the countries are together.

The cosmonauts sure were lucky.

They got to see something so amazing!

Not just the cosmonauts, Andy!

So did the American astronauts--

and all the space flyers from different countries

who flew into space!

You're right!

Cosmonauts, astronauts --

they all see the same stars above

and the same Earth below,

no matter where they're from!

And the same moon.

Luna: That's right!

Which reminds me, I need to report for work!

I guess it's time to head back.

All: Awww!

Watch out world!

This frog just flew into space!

Carmen: C'mon, Leo.

Leo: Still... dizzy...

Andy: Thanks so much for showing us around, Marta!

You taught me things about space that I never even knew about!

No problem, Andy.

Anything to help out a fellow space lover!

And we flew in space like astronauts and cosmonauts.

Just like what Luna gets to do everyday.

Luna? Where's Luna?

Luna: Up here! I'm back in space!

Today was great, Luna!

We learned about how people

from all over the world went to space!

And up in space, we got to see

how beautiful the earth is.

All the countries make one big world!

But I feel like there is so much

more to learn about Moscow, Russia.

There's always much more to learn

about any place we visit.

But as I always say...

There's always tomorrow.

(whistling)
