[siren wailing]

Brad: [to viewer] Hello! Welcome to the show.

Today we're meeting a real hero:

firefighter James Braidwood.

Waaah! Ooof!

Yadina: Gotcha, Brad!

[to viewer] James was the first person to put together

a group of trained firefighters,

back when no one really knew how to fight fires.

Xavier: Too bad James isn't here to explain how this hose works.

Berby: [bloop!]

[blarp bloop]

[bonk]

[gurgling]

Xavier: Uh? WHOOOOA!

Brad: Look out!

Xavier: Whoa!

Maybe we better leave this to the professionals

and start the shoooow!

Brad: Hi, Ms. Rachel. You wanted to see me?

Teacher: Hi Brad, yes.

I've got some good news for you:

I am giving you an exciting new classroom job.

Brad: Really? [gasp]

Ooh, am I class pencil sharpener?

Oh, the light turner-offer?

Teacher: You'll be in charge of looking after Noodle

during our fire drills.

It will be your job to make sure

she's brought out of the classroom safely

and has everything she needs

when we leave the building.

Brad: M--me?

Take care of a whole guinea pig?

D-during a fire drill??

Eee!

Teacher: You'll do great.

Just a minute, Deonne.

Brad: Aaaaaah!

Eeee!

Yadina: Your teacher's right, Brad!

You'll take great care of Noodle.

Xavier: Yeah. You're the most careful person I know.

Brad: But, it's a lot of responsibility.

What if I forget to bring her food?

Or her favorite blankie?

What if I'm so nervous that I freeze

and Noodle has to carry ME out?!

I'm frozen just thinking about it!

[thud]

Yadina: Sounds like you need a little help with this new job...

Xavier: And that means...

Xavier/Yadina: To the Secret Museum!!

Brad: Is it too late to just quit?

Coming...

♪♪

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

Yadina: And where we'll go?

Brad: And WHEEEEEEN!!

Yadina: Look out below! Xavier: Woohoo!

Xavier/Yadina: Hi, Berby! Berby: [bleep blarp]

Brad: Hi Berby. Berby: [blar bloop]

[thump] Brad: Oof!

Xavier: [humming]

We're getting something!

Brad: An upside down bucket?

Xavier: Uhhh...

I think it's a helmet.

James Braidwood.

That's who we're going to meet.

Yadina: In Scotland, in the year .

Brad: That's over...

years ago!

Yadina: I wonder how James Braidwood

can help Brad take care of Noodle?

Xavier: Only one way to find out!

Ready for adventure?

Yadina: Ready!

Brad: Ehh...not so ready.

But I've got a guinea pig that needs me.

[whirring]

[bleep blarp]

Yadina: Here we go!

Xavier: Woooah...

Brad: Where are we?

Xavier: Hey, look!

Is that...?

Berby: [whirring]]

Xavier: James Braidwood.

Thanks, Berby.

James Braidwood: [bonk] Oh! Sorry...

I wasn't looking.

I'm just so excited about the news!

Yadina: What news?

James: One of the town fire brigades just got

their very first fire engine!

Xavier: A fire engine?

James: Uhuh! And...

my uncle works with the fire brigade!

He promised that next time they take it out,

he'll pass by so I can see it.

[nervous breath] He could be here any day,

any minute...any second!

And I have SO much I want to remember to bring

and to ask him and--

what if I forget?

Brad: I hear ya. I've got an important job

with lots of stuff I have to remember, too.

James: And are you soooo excited that you can't stand still?!

Brad: More like I'm so nervous, that I can't move!

Like.. um, right now.

[thud]

James: That IS a problem!

I don't know about you, but

being prepared helps me stay calm.

Then I can focus on doing my best.

So I'm going to get everything ready

for when the fire engine comes.

Be right back!

Jacket? Um.. check.

List of questions to ask about the fire engine?

Check.

[deep breath]

Yadina: You're right, Dr. Zoom,

James looks MUCH calmer, now.

James: [gasps] Look! It's the fire engine!

Yadina: Wow, fire engines sure were different in .

It's blue!

Brad: And is it being pulled by the firefighters?

Xavier: Ah-mazing fact:

cars with motors hadn't been invented yet in .

James: Good thing we're all ready to go.

Bye now! Xavier: Bye, James!

Brad: I am glad James got to see the fire engine,

but how does this help me look after Noodle

during a fire drill?

I'm not excited,

I'm nervous about what could go wrong.

What if I go out the wrong door?

What if my head gets stuck in the door?

W-what if-- Berby: [blurp]

Yadina: I think Berby has more to show us.

Berby: [blarp bloop!]

[whoosh] [zap]

Brad: Where are we? When are we?

Berby: [bleep blarp bloop]

Xavier: Berby says we're at a fire house,

years later.

Hey, there's James!

Yadina: And he's wearing the helmet, from the Secret Museum!

James: Like it? It's for my new job:

the Master of Engines!

That means I'm in charge of fire fighting!

There's a small fire down the road.

Just a wee one, but now

I'll get to see my new brigade in action.

Xavier: Cool!

James: [sighs] We can't let this happen again.

Next time, it could be someone's house!

So here's what we're going to do...

Practicing how to get ready,

and how to fight the fire,

Yadina: Okay!

James: Now let's go over what everyone's job is.

Joseph, when we get there, you hook up the hose.

Charles, you ready the water pump.

Dennis and William, man the hose.

Albert, you're working the engine.

The rest of you, have the buckets ready.

and do their job during a real fire,

then maybe I can stay calm

and do my job during a fire drill.

I just have to be prepared!

Brad: Yes! And I didn't even feel that nervous.

Yadina: You're totally fire drill ready.

Xavier/Yadina/Brad: [cheering]

Xavier: Wasn't meeting James in-credible?!

He had tons of great ideas for

how to make fire fighting safer

and more efficient.

Yadina: Like using masks

to help firefighters breath better.

And ladders to help them get into buildings.

Brad: A lot of James' ideas are still used today.

Two hundred years later!

Making the world safer for everyone,

especially firefighters.

Xavier: Thanks for joining our awesome adventure

to meet James Braidwood.

Queen Lili'uokalani!

She was born over years ago

and became Queen of the Hawaiian Kingdom.

Xavier: Hawaii is a group of islands

in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

Yadina: Queen Lili'uokalani was known as a strong leader.

Brad: You mean, she could lift really heavy things?

Like this totally very heavy coconut?

[grunting]

Woah! [thud] Oof.

Yadina: [off screen] That's not what I mean, Brad.

Xavier: She was strong

And Mom and Dad are great moppers--

I'm sure they'd be fine without us!

I come from a family of "Ali'i",

or "leaders".

And they're depending on me

to learn how to be a good leader, too.

that means not much time for playing?

Queen Lili'uokalani: A good leader needs to be responsible,

I do love being by the water.

It's where I rest and get ready for all the tough decisions

I have to make as leader of Hawaii.

Brad: What kind of decisions?

Queen Lili'uokalani: Well... Hawaiians have always been

free to travel between islands until a sickness

called smallpox came along.

I had to tell everyone to stay put for a few weeks

to stop it from spreading.

Xavier: A few weeks?!

Yadina: Dr. Zoom can't even sit still

for a few minutes!

[squeek-squeek]

See?

Queen Lili'uokalani: Many people felt the same way,

but after speaking to experts, I decided

it was the best way to keep everyone safe.

Brad: Wow, that would be tough.

Queen Lili'uokalani: Yes. But,

I must be responsible as a leader.

And being responsible can involve making tough choices.

Yadina: But, don't you ever feel like

you're missing out on some fun?

Queen Lili'uokalani: Not at all!

I love making my kingdom the best it can be.

Xavier: Whoa. We're on a ship!

Queen Lili'uokalani: [exhales]

And now that smallpox is under control,

I'm visiting my people to see how they are

and make sure they have what they need.

And I'm bringing them some joy too-

Yadina/Brad: Wow!

Xavier: Whoa!

Yadina: [gasps] And look at all those people,

waiting to see Queen Lili'uokalani.

Queen Lili'uokalani: Being responsible can come with

tough choices, but it can also come with wonderful rewards!

Xavier: Wow, Queen Lili'uokalani always did

what was best for her people.

Brad: Uh-huh. She went to a special school

to learn how to be a good leader,

and then she made really tough choices

that helped keep them safe.

Yadina: And she did it all because she loved Hawaii.

Like how we love the museum.
