Ms. Frizzle: let's see, the
Plangdabber's connected to
The dingplonker.
The blagblatter's connected
To the cadybager...
Hmm.
Ooh!
This always happens.
The shrinker-scope
Breaks
The second the warranty
Runs out.
Oh, bus.
What am I going
To do with you?
Ok, ready
For rehearsal?
The friz is
Going to love it!
Carlos: a one and a two...
All: surprise!
Whoo!
Yay!
Yes!
Something's missing.
I know it.
My chemistry
Experiment.
It's almost done.
Your homework at
A time like this?
I'm mixing things
Together--
Water, sand,
And cement--
To get something
New--concrete!
That's what's
Missing.
[Gasp]
Both: cake!
I can't believe it.
We forgot the cake!
How can we throw a
Birthday party for the
Friz without a cake?
What a disaster.
Oh, well.
Oh, good morning, class.
[Sadly]
Good morning,
Ms. Frizzle.
Oh, I see you've
Heard the news.
I'm disappointed, too.
The bus is acting up,
So today's field
Trip is canceled.
Oh, no!
Not the chemistry
Trip.
That's ok,
Ms. Frizzle.
We'll get
Over it.
It was
All arranged.
We were going
To the bakery.
All: bakery?
A bakery?
What's that
Got to do with
Chemistry?
Baking is
Chemistry, ralphie.
It's like
My cement
Experiment.
Mixing parts together
To make something new--
Only tastier.
A bakery is really just
A small chemical plant.
Except
It's a plant
Where they
Make cakes!
Gee, ms. Frizzle,
You know, we've all
Been
Looking forward
To this
Chemistry field
Trip for months.
We have? Ow!
Oh, yeah.
We have.
And, well,
I don't think
Any of us would
Think our education
Was complete
Without a trip
To a bak--
Uh, a chemical
Plant.
Why, carlos!
Does everyone
Feel this way?
All: mm-hmm.
Well, I'm not one to
Stand in the way of
Taking chances,
Making mistakes,
Getting messy!
Bus problems
Or no bus problems--
To the bakery!
Yes!
Nooo!
[Hiccup]
Oh, now, bus, that
Wasn't so difficult,
Was it?
Kids: whoa!
Ms. Frizzle: hmm,
Maybe it was.
Great! How are we
Supposed to get a cake
When we're
This size?
Carlos: and how
Are we supposed to
Even get in there?
Can't let a bit of
Shrinkage spoil our
Fun now, can we, liz?
[Gasping]
All: aah!
Well, I guess that
Answers my question.
Man:
♪ O sole mio ♪
♪ O sole pumpernickel ♪
♪ O sole light rye
With caraway ♪
Bus! Bus!
Yes, honey,
We're going to
Take the bus home.
[Giggle]
All gone!
Ms. Frizzle: hmm,
Maybe it's a problem
With the iotascope,
Or perhaps
The enormomometer.
Both: mmm-mmm!
Uh-oh, liz.
Not one of
These cakes
Is chocolate, and
That's her favorite.
Besides, we're too
Small to buy one, anyway.
What'll we do?
Well...we could
Make one.
Are you serious?
Get real.
All right!
A full-scale
Chemistry
Experiment!
But how will we do it
Without ms. Frizzle seeing?
We'll just have
To get her out
Of the bakery.
But a teacher
Never abandons
Her bus.
Ms. Frizzle, you know how
The shrinker-scope is
Acting up?
Hmm, could be the
Shrinker-scope.
Might also be
The mesmerglobber,
But, yes, carlos.
Well, there's this, uh,
Great auto parts store
Right next door, see, and...
Ms. Frizzle: carlos!
What a good idea.
It worked!
Liz, you're
In charge.
Oh, boy.
See you later!
Bye-bye!
Ok, liz,
Let's go!

Ah! Ah, you--why, you--
Where did it go? Ha ha ha!
[Hiccuping]
Kids: oh, no!
[Buzzer]
I'll be back!
I shall...
♪ Return! ♪
Wanda:
Whew! That
Was close!
Carlos: come on,
We have work to do.
We're about to
Combine a few parts
Into a magnificent
New whole--
The finest
Birthday cake ever!
Ok, the first thing we
Have to do is gather
And measure
The ingredients.
Ralphie,
Get two eggs!
Tim and wanda, a cup
Of sugar and lots of
Flour.
Liz, a teaspoon each
Of salt and cream of
Tartar.
Carlos: keesha, milk,
And lots of it.
Phoebe, butter.
Arnold, baking soda.
And, dorothy ann, you
Guard the door and
Make sure
Ms. Frizzle doesn't
Come back too soon.
Now, what about me?
Guess I'm stuck
Getting
The chocolate. Yes!
Eggs-actly the
Ingredient I was
Looking for.
Uh-oh, a runny-way!
Ha ha ha!
And a-one,
And a-two,
And...!
I am--uh!
The king--uh!
Of soda!
Oh!
Arnold! You, you,
You, you...
You what, d.a.?
You amazing chemist!
Look at that
Stuff fizz!
The vinegar
Spilled
Into
The baking soda.
I wonder what would
Happen if I used this?
Whoa!
Ugh...perfect!
Mmm. Definitely sugar.
My favorite
Ingredient!
This won't
Be easy.
Whoa!
Aah!
Thanks, ralphie!
Oh, phoebe!
At your old school,
You were never such
A butterfingers!
Uh! Uh!
Gotcha!
Ralphie: whoa!
Whoa!
Carlos:
Now we've got all
The ingredients
To make a cake
Except the eggs.
Where's ralphie?
Touchdown!
Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
Amazing!
Now, what happens
If I mix
A lot
Of vinegar
With a little bit
Of baking soda?
Hmm, you don't know till
You try, dorothy ann.
Ms. Frizzle!
You're, uh...
Back!
Unfortunately, the
Mechanic over there
Doesn't know a dwangflommer
From
A plonthoister,
So I thought I'd
Pop back and see
How everyone's doing.
Uh...uh...
Say, ms. Frizzle,
How'd you like
To help me
With a little
Experiment?
Excellent idea.
A little bit more.
Keep going.
Ungh. Man, this
Is tough when
You're half the
Size of a hot
Dog!
Could be worse,
Arnold.
I don't see how.
Kids: whoa!
[Cough cough]
Now I do.
Kids: oh, no. We shrunk!
Carlos: man, oh,
Man, oh, man, oh, man!
What to do, what to do!
Keesha: look at us!
Arnold: I guess this
Is what happens
When you travel
With faulty equipment.
Wait. I've got an idea.
Be right back.
Swell. Now what
Do we do?
Hey! Look
At this!
Wow! Where'd you find
Those great building blocks?
These aren't
Building blocks.
Catch!
Hey, this
Is salt!
Hey, everybody, I
Found a diamond!
Check out the
Glimmering surface.
Here's another
Diamond.
And another one!
We're gonna
Be rich!
Not rich. Sweet!
This is sugar.
So this is what
Sugar looks like
Close up.
See how the
Sides make a
Pattern?
Things that
Looked alike
When we were big ...
Look different,
Now that we're small.
Let's go, you guys!
We've got to make this cake
Before the baker catches us.
Some salt.
[Beep beep]
Carlos:
Here comes
Some sugar!
♪ Yea la day da de da
Day da ping ♪
Shimmering shortbreads!
What the--
Carlos:
Now for
Some flour!
Phoebe: ew!
We can't use
This flour.
It's got
Something in it.
No, it doesn't.
This is what flour
Looks like close up.
Even flour's made up
Of different parts.
Oh, oh.
I couldn't have seen
What I thought I saw.
No way!
Holy hot-dog bun!
Carlos: that's what
I call flour power!
And now, for the best
Ingredient of them all...
All: chocolate! Yummy!
Hey, mixing in
The chocolate
Makes it
A new color!
Sure it does, keisha!
But check out how
You can still see
Which bits
Are chocolate and
Which ones aren't.
Carlos:
Now we need
The wet stuff.
Hang on, everyone!
Tim: at least milk
Still looks like milk.
Sufferin' sweet rolls!
It must be
Those blasted moths!
Oh, oh!
Operator, get me smug bug
Pest control, and hurry.
Carlos:
And now for a real
Eggs-periment.
Eggs away!
Oh, yes. Pouring the milk.
That's correct!
And now they're--oh--
Carrying eggs!
Oh, oh!
What do you mean,
You've never seen that behavior
In moths before?
Oh, yeah? Well, same to you!
Carlos: salt, sugar,
Flour, cream of tartar,
Milk, butter, eggs,
Chocolate, and baking soda!
Hit it, liz!
So, um...
Ms. Frizzle,
Is this amazing
Chemistry, or what?
You bet, d.a.
[Gasp]
But maybe I should
Check on the rest
Of the class now.
Oh, no! The friz
Is back!
Carlos: come on,
Come on, come
On, d.a.!
Think of
Something!
[Thinking]
Come on, come on,
Come on, d.a., Think!
Hey, ms. Frizzle!
What would happen
If I put a whole
Batch of baking soda
Into a bottle
With the vinegar?
Oh, there's
Only one way
To find out!
[Gasp]
What a mess!
Uh, just a minute.
It's a chemical
Reaction.
Um...uh...
The balloon!
Wow!
And a real
Beauty, too!
Whoa,
No kidding!
Baking soda
And vinegar
Mixed together
Makes something
New.
A gas that pushes
Out the sides
Of the balloon.
Just like filling
A tire with air!
Dorothy ann, that
Reminds me, the
Bus needs new tires.
Oh, I wonder how
Much that'll be?
I'd better go check.
Thanks
For reminding me!
No...
Whoa!
Problem!
Yes! Way
To go, d.a.
No! No, I'm not crazy!
Perhaps my establishment
Just happens to attract
A higher breed of
Moth, that's all.
If you want anything done
Right, you have to do it
Yourself.
En garde, monsieur!
Carlos: now, the next
Step is to mix all the
Ingredients together.
Ralphie: whew,
That's going to take
Some monster beaters.
Good idea, ralphie!
Eggbeaters!
Kids: whee!
Everything's getting
Mixed together.
Yeah, and one more
Ingredient's
Getting added.
What's that?
Air. The beaters are
Forcing air into the
Mix.
Wanda: all the parts are
Combining into one new thing.
It's called
Cake batter!
Wanda: but if ms. Frizzle
Asks, it's--
All: chemistry!
Cooks and chemists
Are a lot alike.
Both measure
Out ingredients.
And mix them
Together to make
Something new.
The only
Difference is,
I get to taste mine!
Ha ha ha!
Wanda: uh-oh.
Hear that?
He's going
To see us!
Submarine down!
Mmm, yummy.
But when did I make this?
Maybe...that moth...
Hee hee! Ha ha!
I am going crazy!
Ha ha ha!

Tim: what's
Happening?
Why is it suddenly
Getting so hot?
Arnold: maybe it's
Because the floor's
On fire.
I am pleased to
Announce the addition
Of the last
Ingredient--
Heat!
Carlos, do you
Mean to say...
Yes, we're
In the oven!
And that means...
Kids: we're getting baked!
Help!
Kids: help! Help!
Keesha: wait
A second here.
If my facts
Are straight,
We're stuck
In a cake,
Baking in an
Intensely hot
Oven!
At my old school,
We never got baked--
Except for that time
The air conditioning went.
We're toast!
Well, technically, no, but
You've got the right idea.
Um...is it just me,
Or is that the tin man
From "the wizard of oz"?
Maybe we should
Ask toto here.
Whew! Warm one today.
Kids: ms. Frizzle?
Hmm, feels like
Somebody forgot
To put up the
Heat shield.
Dorothy ann:
Ahh! Much better.
Oh, good.
Thanks,
Ms. Frizzle.
As I always say,
If you can't
Stand the heat,
Get out
Of the oven.
Yeah, but how?
Phoebe: hey, look!
The batter's moving!
According to my research,
The baking soda
Is making bubbles.
Whoa!
Now what?
Arnold: the batter's
Not the only thing
Getting pushed around.
Uh...what's
That noise?
It's steam!
Excellent
Observations!
It's so hot that
The water in the
Batter is vaporizing,
Making more
And bigger
Bubbles.
Kids: aah!
Wanda: the batter's starting
To look kind of solid.
The cake.
It's done!
Ah, the sweet smell
Of parts
Combining into a new
And magnificent whole.
Now, I wonder if the
Baker is making this
Cake with a special
Customer in mind.
Huh?
Huh?
Oh, no.
We're going
To have our cake
And be eaten,
Too!
No digressions
For indigestion, arnold.
We just...
Huh?
Hmm.
Oh, well.
As I always say,
The more
Mixed up
Things are,
The better
The solution.
We're doomed!
Wait, I've got it!
Is there any
Baking soda left?
Plenty.
Vinegar?
Hmm. Red, tarragon,
Or regular white?
Regular white
Is fine.
What are you
Doing, d.a.?
Yeah, we got
To get out
Of here.
Well,
Baking soda
Plus vinegar
Equals--
The gas pressure
We need to push
Us out of here!
Dorothy ann,
You are one
Brilliant
Chemist!
Gee, thanks.
Phoebe:
Come on, you guys. Hurry!
Yes!
[Sniff]
No! Oh, no, no,
Not in my cake!
[Beep beep]
Hooray!
We made it!
Keesha: we're out!
And stay out!
Ms. Frizzle:
Oh, finally, all fixed.
Who'd have guessed?
It was the
Hinkleblammenflammenjabb?
Surprise!
Kids: yay!
Why, class.
This is wonderful!
I don't know what to say.
That's not all,
Ms. Frizzle.
We still have
The big finale!
A big finale?
Well, what could that be?
Ready, arnold?
You bet.
Oh, class, where
Did you ever get
Such a lovely cake?
You wouldn't believe
Us if we told you.
The baker just
Gave it to us.
Said
It was ruined.
Something
About a moth.
But frankly, we
Didn't believe him.
Kids: ha ha ha!
As I always say,
Chemistry--
It's a piece
Of cake!

Yes. Yes. Of course.
I was brilliant in it.
"A remarkable tenor."
That's what the "frizzle
Opera review" said.
Those look good.
I bet you a doughnut
I can tell you
Some crucial information
Missing from the show.
What? Impossible.
You insult me.
Ha ha ha!
You're on, kid.
It was--
Wait.
Ooh, was it that
Dorothy ann
Is a little too
Young to be doing
Those experiments?
Not really.
Ms. Frizzle was there,
And everyone knows
You need a grownup around
When you're doing
Chemistry experiments,
And she was
Wearing goggles.
Aha! Then I'll bet
You two doughnuts.
Sure. It was--
Wait!
Is it that some people
Think chemicals
Are bad for them?
No. Some chemicals
Are good.
It depends on what
You use them for.
Ok, ok, ok.
Doughnuts, then.
Ok. It was--
Wait. Oh, wait.
Was it, even though
We said things are
Made out of parts,
We never said what
The parts were made of?
No. I already knew
They're made of smaller parts
Called atoms
And atoms are made
Of even smaller parts
And so on and so on.
It was--
Eh!
Wait, wait, wait, wait,
Wait, wait, wait, wait!
Maybe you think things
Like salt and sugar
Don't really look
Like building blocks
And diamonds.
They do
Under a microscope.
I love looking
Through microscopes.
I think
You're bluffing!
I'll bet you every
Doughnut in this store
That you cannot tell me
What information was missing!
You never said
How old ms. Frizzle is.
Huh? How did--
Oh, leaping

Crumbs.
I've been reduced to crumbs.
