Melody, the Music Pet

Art.

"Water Lilies,"

painted by...

Claude Monet.

And music...

[Leo]
"Humoresque N°7".

Written by

Antonin Dvorák.

Hi! I'm Leo.

My friends and I are at a train station
in France.

And this is...

[train whistle]

-[duck quacking]
-[dog barking]

...the pet train!

The pet train takes pets
to their new homes.

Do you like pets?

Me, too.

The pet train only takes pets
to live with families

that will take really, really
good care of them.

And give them a wonderful home.

[Quincy] But the animals need
to have a ticket to ride on the train.

Look! Here comes an animal.

A parrot.

[June]
The parrot has a ticket for the pet train.

I'm sure she's going to a good home.

[Quincy]
And here comes a mouse.

That mouse must be going
to a great home, too.

Look, here comes another pet.

Aw, she's so cute and cuddly!

[Quincy] Whoa!

I've never seen
an animal like that before.

What do you think it is, Leo?

This looks like a music pet.

A music pet?

That's right!

Watch.

[inhales]

When I conduct with my baton,

she'll make music.

[music vocalizes "Humoresque N°7"]

[gasps]

The music pet is singing!

And it's a beautiful melody.

Melody!

That's a great name for a music pet.

Melody, I bet you're going
to go to a great new home.

They're going to take
really good care of you.

But Leo, where is Melody's ticket
for the pet train?

Hmm. I don't see Melody's ticket anywhere.

Oh, no!

Melody doesn't have a ticket
for the pet train!

It's missing.

[whistle sounds]

Can Melody get on the pet train
without her ticket?

No. The train won't let her on.

How awful!

Now she can't go to her new home
like all the other pets.

[vocalizes]

Don't worry, Melody.

The Little Einsteins
will help you find your ticket.

Then you can take the pet train
to your new home.

And a nice family
can take care of you.

But we're going to need your help.

Will you help Melody find her ticket?

Great!

[sings a happy tune]

[chimes]

We've got a mission!

We're going to find Melody's ticket
for the pet train!

Let the mission...

begin!

Buckle your seat belts.

[all]
Seat belts buckled!

Prepare for blast-off!

We need to give Rocket a lot of power.

Put your hands on your lap,
and pat with us!

Pat, pat, pat, pat,

pat, pat, pat, pat.

Faster! Pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat!

Now raise your arms as high as you can,

and say "blast-off!".

[all]
Blast-off!

[Annie]
Hold on tight, 'cause here we go!

[all]
Whoa!

["Humoresque N°7" plays]

-[Leo] Whoo-hoo!
-[Quincy] All right!

We're going to find Melody's ticket
for the pet train!

Great song, Annie.

[vocalizes]

[laughs]

Melody likes it, too!

[tapping]

Look at Melody.

I think she hears something.

[tapping]

She hears her ticket for the pet train.

Rocket, land down there.

[xylophone plays notes]

[Annie]
Wow!

Look at all the pretty lavender bushes.

[June]
We must be in Alsace, France.

Let's be really quiet,

and see if we can hear Melody's ticket.

[tapping]

Yes! We can hear the ticket.

It's this way.

Follow us, Melody!

Wait, Leo. Something's wrong.

Melody isn't following us.

She won't come.

Come on, Melody.

[whistles]

This way!

Uh-oh.

She still won't come.

We need to find a way
to get Melody to follow us.

I know what to do.

I can conduct Melody with my baton.

Then she'll follow wherever I go.

-Let's try it.
-Good idea.

Go for it!

Ok, but I need your help.

Will you help me conduct?

Great!

Now put your arms in front of you...

[takes a breath]

...and bounce your arms to the beat!

Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce.

[sings "Humoresque N°7"]

She's starting to follow!

Keep bouncing your arms.

Bounce, bounce, bounce.

Here she comes.

Keep conducting!

She's almost here.

You did it!

Great conducting.

You helped me get Melody to follow.

And you did well, too, Melody.

Good music pet.

[vocalizes]

Now let's keep going and find that ticket.

[Melody panting]

[Quincy]
Uh-oh, Melody is slowing down.

I think something is wrong.

Melody is running out of energy.

What's the matter, Melody?

Are you hungry?

[vocalizes]

She's hungry.

What does a music pet eat, Leo?

Music pets love to eat music notes.

Do you see any music notes?

Yes, there are music notes
up in that tree.

But Melody is too little
to reach those music notes.

I have a plan.

I can reach the music notes

if I do one of my super ballet jumps.

Sautè.

Good thinking, June.

Can you say "sautè"?

Sautè!

Good!

But I can't quite reach the music notes.

I need you to help me jump higher.

Ready? Say...

"sautè!"

I can almost reach.

Say it louder, "sautè!"

One more time, and really loudly.

Sautè!

-Hooray!
-That was awesome!

Way to go!

Thanks for helping me sautè.

Here you go, Melody.

[Melody sings short notes]

Whoa! Look at Melody eat.

She must have been really hungry.

[sings "Humoresque N°7"]

Those music notes gave her so much energy.

[whistle blowing]

What does that sound like?

The pet train! Yes!

We'd better hurry and find Melody's ticket

before the train leaves.

Yeah, Melody needs to take the pet train

to her new home.

[tapping]

[vocalizes]

Look, Melody hears her ticket.

[tapping]

I hear it, too.

[tapping]

We must be getting closer.

This way, Melody.

Follow me.

Melody sure is excited to find her ticket.

Look at her go.

[June] Uh-oh,
she's headed for that water lily pond.

[Leo]
Be careful, Melody.

Wait for us!

Melody bounced right into the middle
of a water lily pond.

She's stuck on a lily pad.

[vocalizes]

Poor Melody.

She feels scared!

Don't worry, Melody.
I'll take care of you.

What are you going to do, Leo?

There's only one thing I can do.

I'm going to conduct Melody
to bounce across the lily pads.

Fantastic idea!

Yeah, Leo, you're a great conductor.

But I need you to conduct with me.

Get your baton ready.

[inhales]

Now bounce your arms up and down
to the beat.

Bounce, bounce,

bounce, bounce.

["Humoresque N°7"]

It's working!

Melody is bouncing across the lily pads!

Keep conducting.

[Leo]
Uh-oh, the lily pads are moving faster.

We have to conduct Melody
to bounce faster.

Bounce your arms faster!

Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce.

[June]
Now the lily pads are moving slower.

Bounce your arms slower.

Bounce, bounce,

bounce, bounce.

[Leo]
Faster!

[Leo]
Slower...

Now really fast!

[June]
She made it!

Yay!

That was awesome!

[vocalizes]

Way to conduct fast and slow with me!

And you're a good little bouncer.

Yes, you are, Melody!

I'm so glad that you're safe.

[tapping]

I hear Melody's train ticket!

Let's see if we can find Melody's ticket
with my binoculars.

[Leo]
Do you see Melody's ticket?

[tapping]

Where?

Yes, there it is!

[Leo]
It's at the top of the Eiffel Tower

in Paris, France.

[whistle blowing]

[gasps]
What's that sound?

You're right.

It's the pet train!

We really have to hurry
and get Melody's ticket

so she can ride to her new home.

Come on, to Rocket!

We're going to have to fly Rocket
as fast as he can go!

Superfast!

Will you help me fly Rocket superfast?

Great!

♪ Superfast! ♪

[all]
♪ Superfast! ♪

["Humoresque N°7" plays]

To get to superfast,
we have to start at adagio.

Pat the beat on your lap slowly.

Moderato.

Now pat the beat on your tummy
a little faster.

Allegro!

Now pat the beat on your shoulders
even faster.

Presto!

Now reach your arms to the sky
and shake your whole body!

We did it!

We're flying superfast!

[June]
There's the Eiffel Tower.

[Leo]
Rocket, land there.

[Quincy]
Whoa, the Eiffel Tower is really tall!

[June]
And the ticket is all the way at the top.

Don't worry, Melody.

I'm going to get that ticket.

So you can ride the pet train
to your new home.

[vocalizes]

Ok, Melody,

you can come, too.

Come on, follow me!

We made it to the top.

Do you see Melody's ticket?

[tapping]

Yeah, there it is.

Melody, your ticket is in there.

Uh-oh.

But that door is too small to get through.

Even a mouse couldn't fit through there.

[classical music playing]

Melody, do you hear something?

[classical music playing]

Yeah! This little door is playing music.

But it's very quiet.

Maybe if we conduct the music
to get louder,

the door will grow bigger.

Will you help me conduct the music
to get louder?

Great!

Get your baton ready!

Start with your hands down low,

like me,

and slowly lift them.

[music plays louder]

It's working!

The music is getting louder,

and the door is getting bigger.

Keep conducting!

Make the music louder--

crescendo!

Even louder--crescendo!

We did it.

Great job conducting a crescendo.

Go ahead, Melody.

You can fit through now.

-[panting]
-Go fetch your ticket!

["Humoresque N°7" plays]

Way to go, Melody!

I'm so proud of you.

What a good music pet.

[whistle blowing]

[Leo]
Look, Melody, there's the pet train.

It's starting its engine.

Let's hurry.

[Leo]
Come on, team.

The pet train is getting ready to leave.

[all]
Blast-off!

[Leo]
Yay!

We made it!

Go ahead, Melody,

show them your ticket.

[Annie]
Go, Melody, go!

[tapping]

She did it!

Hooray!

Now Melody can go to her new home.

[sings sad notes]

I'm going to miss you, too, Melody,

but I know that you're
going to live with someone

who will take really good care of you.

[train whistle blowing]

Good-bye, Melody.

We'll miss you.

Have fun at your new home.

All right, team, let's go home.

I'm really going to miss Melody.

She was a great music pet.

She liked you, too, Leo.

You were really good
at taking care of her.

[whistle blowing]

Listen. What does that sound like?

[engine chugging]

Yes! It's the pet train.

The pet train is bringing a pet
right here...

to our house!

["Humoresque N°7" plays]

And it sounds like...

[all]
Melody!

[Quincy]
I cannot believe it!

Leo, this must be Melody's new home.

She's coming to live with you!

Melody, I'm going to take
really good care of you.

I promise.

[vocalizes]

Aw, Melody is the happiest pet
in the whole world.
