Hello, cello.

Art!

"Langlois Bridge with Women Washing,"

painted by Vincent Van Gogh.

And music...

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished," playing]

"Symphony N°8, Unfinished,"

written by Franz Schubert.

[horn playing]

Hey, it's me, Quincy.

My friends and I are in Cremona, Italy.

We're here to see a mommy cello

who's about to have five new baby cellos.

Do you see the mommy cello?

Yeah, that's her.

See? She has a long neck

and strings and a wooden bridge.

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

She's a cello, all right.

But where are the baby cellos?

[all playing]

[June]
Here comes one baby cello.

[Annie]
Two baby cellos.

[Leo]
Three baby cellos.

[Quincy]
Four baby cellos!

I cannot believe it!

Aw, and look!

They're all giving their mommy
little cello kisses!

[cellos kissing]

[June]
How sweet!

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

Hmm.

Four baby cellos.

Did all the baby cellos
hatch out of their cases?

[rustling]

No.

There's one more baby cello
waiting to hatch.

[water flowing]

[cellos play notes]

[gasps]
Oh, no!

The last cello case
fell into the Po River!

And now he's floating far, far away
from his mommy.

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

How terrible!

Don't worry, mommy cello.

The Little Einsteins
will rescue your baby, I promise.

[playing]

But we're going to need your help.

Will you help us bring the baby cello
back to his mommy?

Great!

[baton chimes]

We've got a mission!

We're going to find the baby cello

and bring him back to his mommy.

Let the mission...

begin!

Buckle your seatbelts!

[all]
Seatbelts 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.

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!

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

[Leo]
Whoo-hoo!

[Quincy]
All right!

We're off to find the baby cello

and bring him back to his mommy.

[gasps]
Listen.

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

I hear the baby cello.

Do you see the baby cello case?

Yeah, there it is.

[Annie]
Hurry, Rocket!

We've got to save him!

[xylophone plays notes]

-[June] Yay!
-[Annie] hooray!

[Leo]
Great job, Rocket!

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

[June]
I hope he's ok.

[playing continues]

Look, look, look!

His case is wiggling!

[Quincy]
He's getting ready to hatch!

[playing]

[June]
Aw! He's so cute!

[playing]

Poor little baby cello.

He wants to know where his mommy is.

Hey there, little guy.

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

Listen!

He's asking Quincy if he's his mommy.

[playing]

No, silly baby cello!

I'm not your mommy, I'm a kid.

Your mommy is a cello,

and she has a long neck,

just like you.

[playing one note]

That's right.

Cellos have long necks.

[playing]

Whoa! Where's he going?

He's going to look for his mommy.

Come on, team!

We've got to help baby cello
find his way back to his mommy!

Wait for us, baby cello!

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

Uh-oh.

I wonder which way we go now.

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

Listen! Baby cello is trying
to call to his mommy.

Baby cello, I can help you call to her.

♪ I am a cello ♪

♪ And I am looking for my mommy ♪

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

[mommy cello playing high notes]

Mommy cello heard us.

Leo, her music is coming
from this direction.

Come on, team,

we need to follow the road
that goes through the zoo!

[cello playing]

[elephant trumpeting]

Ooh, look at all the animals!

[playing]

Baby cello is so excited!

He thinks he found his mommy in the zoo.

Oh, yeah.

Baby cello is looking for a mommy
with a long neck.

Which animal at the zoo has a long neck?

The giraffe, right.

[Annie]
Is baby cello's mommy a giraffe?

No!

[playing]

Baby cello!

That giraffe does have a long neck,

but she's not your mommy.

[playing]

But don't worry.

I'm going to help you find mommy cello.

I promise.

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

[June]
Uh-oh! The gates are locked shut.

Now we can't get through the zoo.

We need to find a key
to open up the gates.

Everyone, start looking!

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

Do you see the key?

Yes! You found it!

It's around the giraffe's neck!

But the giraffe is so tall!

How are we going to reach all the way
up to her neck to get the key?

[baby cello playing]

[Annie]
Look! Baby cello is going to try

to use that ladder to reach the key.

Smart thinking, baby cello.

[playing one note]

Uh-oh, the ladder's too small.

Baby cello can't reach the key.

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

[Leo]
Listen!

This is a musical ladder!

If I conduct a crescendo,

that will make the ladder
grow louder and bigger!

Great plan, Leo.

But I'm going to need your help.

Will you conduct with me?

Great!

Get your baton ready.

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished"
playing softly]

Now put your hands down really low

and slowly raise them up higher

to tell the music to get louder.

A little louder.

[June]
It's working!

The ladder's music is getting louder!

But the ladder still isn't tall enough
to reach the key.

Conduct the music to get even louder.

Stand up and reach your hands
as high as you can.

Crescendo!

[music playing faster and louder]

All right!

Baby cello can reach the key.

[playing]

Whoo-hoo!

Way to go!

["Symphony N°8, Unfinished" playing]

[June]
Fantastic!

[Annie]
Baby cello opened the gate.

Come on, baby cello.

Let's call to your mommy.

♪ I am a cello ♪

♪ And I am looking for my mommy ♪

[mommy cello plays
"Symphony N°8, Unfinished"]

Mommy cello sounds
even louder than before.

We're getting closer
to your mommy, baby cello.

[playing]

Just remember, your mommy is a cello.

She has a long neck

and she has strings

just like you.

[plucking strings]

Come on, Little Einsteins, this way!

[playing]

Hey, wait.

Baby cello is going
inside that pasta restaurant.

He thinks he found his mommy!

I don't see baby cello anywhere.

I know. He must be looking for a mommy

that has long strings.

Which one of these foods
is long and stringy?

The spaghetti noodles!

Yes!

[playing]

Ha ha ha! Baby cello thinks
his mommy is spaghetti!

Is spaghetti baby cello's mommy?

No.

Silly baby cello.

Spaghetti is long and stringy,

but spaghetti isn't your mommy.

[plays sad note]

Come on, baby cello. This way.

[Annie]
Uh-oh.

That spaghetti machine
can't stop making spaghetti!

[June]
It's going berserk.

Whew!

That was close.

[plays]

Uh-oh. I think one of our friends
got stuck in the spaghetti!

Who got stuck in the spaghetti?

[all]
Rocket!

Rocket, are you ok?

[xylophone plays notes]

He's ok,

but he's stuck in all that spaghetti.

He can't get out.

[playing]

Great idea, baby cello.

We can pull the spaghetti
to get Rocket untangled.

But we need to pull smoothly--

legato--

so the spaghetti doesn't break.

Let's do a smooth and steady
spaghetti dance.

Do it with me.

Put your arms out in front of you

and smoothly
pull the spaghetti with one hand

and then the other hand.

That's it!

One hand,

then the other hand.

Pull legato
so the spaghetti doesn't break.

Legato. Legato!

We did it!

Great dancing!

Come on, baby cello.

Let's call to your mommy.

[mommy cello plays]

Mommy cello sounds
even louder than before!

We must be getting closer.

[playing excited chords]

Just remember, baby cello,

your mommy has a long neck,

strings,

and a wooden bridge,

just like you.

[plays]

That's right.

Cellos have a wooden bridge.

[playing]

Baby cello, wait for us!

[plays chords]

Look! Baby cello thinks
that wooden bridge is his mommy.

Is that bridge baby cello's mommy?

No, silly cello.

That wooden bridge isn't your mommy.

[plays sad notes]

[ominous notes playing]

Uh-oh!

That's not just any bridge.

It's a drawbridge!

[June] And it's opening up
for that big, giant boat.

[Quincy]
Baby, cello, watch out!

Oh, no!

Baby cello fell into the big, giant boat.

[playing frantic notes]

[Annie]
And it's taking baby cello out to sea!

Stop!

[June]
Come back, giant boat!

It's no use. The boat can't hear us.

Poor baby cello.

How will he get to his mommy now?

I've got to help him.

Maybe the boat will hear me

if I play my violin
just like the boat's horn.

Loud and strong!

Sforzando!

That will tell the boat
to bring back baby cello.

Great idea, Quincy.

But I'm going to need
your help to call the boat.

Ready?

Say... Sforzando!

Sforzando!

Good.

Now hold up your violin

and bow the strings loud and strong.

Like this.

Awesome!

Now say "sforzando"!

And play your violin with me.

Sforzando!

Sforzando!

Sforzando!

[playing louder and faster]

[violin sounds loudly]

[June]
The big, giant boat heard you!

[Leo] It worked!
The boat is bringing baby cello back.

[June]
Hooray!

[Annie]
Yay!

Thanks for playing sforzandos with me.

You were amazing!

[happy playing]

Yay, baby cello!

You're back!

I'm glad you're ok, baby cello.

[playing]

Aww. Poor baby cello.

He really wishes he could find his mommy.

[xylophone plays notes]

You guys! Rocket hears something.

[instruments playing]

[Leo]
Whoa, look!

All of the musical instruments
are at the piazza!

[June]
And they're looking for baby cello.

Baby cello, your mommy
must be at the piazza, too.

She's a musical instrument.

[plays ascending notes]

That's right.

Your mommy has a long neck

and strings

and a wooden bridge.

And...

she's a musical instrument.

Just like you.

[plays]

Don't worry, baby cello.

Rocket can get you to the piazza
superfast!

Come on, team!

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

Superfast!

Will you help me fly Rocket superfast?

Great!

Allegro!

Now pat the beat on your shoulders

She has a long neck...
