01x20 - Take Me To Your Ferret / Earth Hunt

Post by bunniefuu »

[Music]

space. It's a really big place to visit,

but well worth the trip. Just don't lose

your luggage.

Something's wrong with the ship's

wiring.

What's the problem? I was charging my

latest invention, the multi power up. My

goal was to change the way our ship uses

its power.

And you did.

Sorry.

We'll have to make an emergency landing

fast. How about landing on Earth?

That's not a bad idea. You know, of the

known planets in the solar system, Earth

is the third planet from the sun. And

because she's at just the right distance

from the sun, she won't be too hot or

cold.

She also has plenty of land and lots of

water, so we'll be able to stay there

for quite a while if we need to.

Hi, Earth. Bula here. We're in a real

jam. Okay, if we land on you.

Sure. Stay as long as you like. I got

plenty of free parking.

Thanks a lot. You're the best.

[Music]

Wow, look at that.

What did I tell you?

Wow. Planet Earth is so full of life.

It'll take years to introduce ourselves

to everyone. How long will it take to

rewire the ship, Cedar?

Not that long.

This is going to take forever. All our

wiring is fried and I can't replace it

without new wire.

I double checked the hold, but we lost

everything when our cargo door opened in

space.

I'm hungry.

All we have left on board are some old

galactic glow glob juice globes.

Let's get some sleep. We can figure

things out in the morning.

[Music]

Hey, look.

[Music]

Tasty. Who should we thank for this?

Hard to tell. Earth has a lot of things

living on it, which is why it's so

special. Let me show you what I mean

with my Motoedia.

[Music]

Earth is one of the known planets in the

solar system. She's a special planet for

lots of reasons. Earth goes around the

sun just far enough away to keep from

getting too hot and just close enough to

keep from getting too cold. This makes

Earth just right for people, plants, and

animals to live.

It's the only planet in the solar system

that is known to have living things on

it.

As you can see, most of Earth's surface

is covered by water.

Does that mean Earth is made out of

water?

Oh, no. Planet Earth is mostly made up

of metal and rock. It's just the surface

that has so much water. The top of the

Earth, called the crust, is made mostly

of rock. Under that crust is more rock

that gets hotter and hotter and begins

to melt when you get really deep down.

The center of the Earth is made of

liquid and solid metal. Let's see for

ourselves.

Here's the rocky top, the crust. the

rock just beneath the crust. And

finally, here's the liquid and solid

metal center.

Thanks, Molto. I can see why lots of

living things call Earth home. I hope we

get to meet some.

[Music]

Oh my.

What is that?

I don't know.

Hey, where's Gorgon?

[Music]

[Music]

Fascinating. This earthling communicates

by dancing. H I think I've got an easier

way we can join the conversation.

A crypto polytech translator caller. Can

you understand me?

Testing feritive ground control. 1 2 3.

How was my fruit basket?

Thank you. It was yummy. We ate

everything in it but those long yellow

whatchamacallits.

The bananas. How come you didn't eat

those?

We uh thought they were party hats.

I'm Bula and this is Zeter, Molto,

Wizzy, and Wig.

I copy that. I'm Buzzy the ferret. Which

chicken, firefly?

And this is

Gorga. He told me himself he speaks

ferret like a pro.

Uhhuh.

So, let me guess. You got lost when you

drove in from way out of town for a

costume party.

You got the way out of town part right.

[Music]

Hold on. As in from way out of town up

there.

Imagine real aliens.

My dream is to fix spacecraft

because ferrets are so good at wiggling

through tight spots.

Hey, this wiring of yours is a mess.

Tell me about it. And we lost all our

spare wire. I know where to get some,

but we'll have to wait until dark.

Meanwhile, you can join me for dinner at

Buzzy's Command Central. Follow me.

Come on.

Wait up.

It's just like you said, Moto. Earth's

crust looks like it's mostly made of

rock. What a sweet planet.

This way.

[Music]

[Applause]

That's also Earth for you. Most of its

surface is covered in water as far as

three eyes can see.

Roger that. A This is an awesome place

to be stranded. I should know. My cage

fell off a truck that was taking me to a

nearby space base. So, I decided to camp

out here until I figured out another way

to get there. Have some cookies.

Make yourself at home. Meet Cara Sue

Junkie. We can get your wire after

sundown, but you'll have to move like

me. In and out of shadows. Silent as the

night.

Hey, Silent is my middle name. Well,

actually, it's Flur Zoo, but you get the

picture.

That's right, folks. A real live

spaceship. Looks like we've got

ourselves some visiting aliens.

Oh, my aliens. Maybe we can get a lift

back to Zula. Wig, he's talking about

us.

Yep. Seems like half the town's out

combing the woods right now for some

trace of them. Everyone wants to be the

first to shake the hand of a genuine

being from outer space.

We've got to get that wire, Buzzy. We're

members of an intergalactic team called

the Zula Patrol. Before we begin a

mission, we have a saying. This is a job

for the Zula Patrol. one honorary

Zula patrol in Earth. Barrett,

come on g*ng. We don't have a moment to

lose.

Sh. This way.

[Music]

Sometimes humans toss out perfectly good

wire like this stuff.

Who's there?

Can you see anyone?

Nope.

[Music]

Looks like we're getting closer to those

aliens, folks. Local kids just

discovered alien footprints in the sand.

They're definitely out of this world.

And the search for aliens intensifies as

scientists comb the area. This is so

exciting, folks. It's nice that humans

want to meet us. Too bad we can't let

them.

Why not?

Zula patrol rule number 485- C.

Earthlings must never know they are

being observed. Also, Earth bananas are

food, not party hats. Well, I'll be

I don't know if we'll have enough time

to rewire our ship and get out of here

before those Earthlings show up.

Do the best you can. Wizzy, wig, Gorga,

come with me. I think I know a way to

delay them. I guess these old galactic

globe glob juice globes are coming in

handy after all.

[Music]

John, you're looking around this way.

You see anything?

Look at this over here.

Will you look at this? It's some kind of

amazing alien goo.

Incredible. How remarkable.

[Music]

you.

[Music]

A little green alien. He's just like I

always imagined, only taller and with

hundreds more teeth.

This is awesome.

[Music]

All my life, I've dreamed of being the

first ferret to see Earth from space.

Look how beautiful it is. And the sun

and the other planets, too.

Someday I'm going to rocket all over the

universe.

Meanwhile, we're going to rocket you to

another part of Earth. Can you guess

where, my furry friend?

And Earth's space flight center.

As a matter of fact, yes.

That's two dreams come true in one day.

Now I see why you love being the Zula

Patrol. We also have a saying on Earth,

grow high.

[Music]

And so as our heroes turn back to pick

up their lost luggage, they've learned

that anytime you meet new friends is a

good time. Even if a trip doesn't turn

out like you, Planet.

Get it? planet.

Never mind.

Hello there, knowledge seekers. Come on

in. It's time for our maltto moment.

There are great planets in our solar

system, including Earth. They all travel

around the sun. Earth is the only planet

in the solar system that is known to

have life on it. Do you remember what

covers most of Earth's surface?

That's right, water. And what is the

rest of planet Earth made of?

Very good. Earth is mostly made up of

metal and rock. But can you guess what

makes planet Earth really special?

Planet Earth is special because you,

your family, and your friends live

there.

Bye for now.

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

supplies to stay on patrol 87.3 more

days without ever landing

[Music]

it may take me longer than that to

finish this silly jigsaw puzzle i go

next to a white piece i go next to a

white piece yes yes i know you all go

next to a white piece

[Music]

yeah yeah yeah hilarious the last time

one of you guys said something funny was

before the big bang my my testy aren't

we for such a soggy little planet yeah

maybe she sprung a leak

my polar ice caps are melting with

laughter dad did anyone hear something

oh it's earth sorry i thought you were a

gumball

very funny slim at least i can see over

my equator look why don't you guys just

go back to your own little paths around

the sun and stay out of my spot yeah and

just what makes you think you got the

right to such a cushy spot anyway huh

what do you mean i've always been the

third planet from the sun true but i

think your spot is perfect for moira not

too warm not too cold i want it hey back

off oh yes i deserve it more than you

you just being selfish but i want it

all right that's it i am so over this

solar system i'm gonna go find some

other star to travel around

15 cases of jet jerky

well ah that does it

say has anybody seen my laser pen

there it is

thanks wizzy my pleasure bula hey i'll

find it too

oh

my goodness something is terribly wrong

in the solar system planets are buffing

into one another

this is a job for the zula patrol

finally some excitement

[Music]

oh look the planets are all out of place

no wait uh is that all of them let's see

um one two

three huh no i already counted that one

three eight oh dear i'd better start

again

wait a minute

what is it moto there's a planet missing

earth is supposed to be three planets

away from the sun and she's gone

maybe she just wants to be on her own

oh it's not that simple wig earth is a

bit like this one puzzle piece i go next

to a white piece yes you do because

you're needed as part of this whole

puzzle you're an important part of a

larger hole

let's check the multipedia earth is also

an important part of a larger hole it's

part of the whole solar system

[Music]

which is made up of the sun and

everything in space that travels around

the sun including the known planets but

it doesn't stop there oh no

the solar system is part of an even

larger system called the milky way

galaxy

you see how it works i get it just like

your house is part of your block and

your block is part of your neighborhood

right precisely and just think if you

took one house away

the neighborhood just wouldn't be the

same anymore an important part of it

would be missing it's sort of like this

bacon brickle bar is part of a whole

case of yummy snacks and that case is

part of the whole food supply for the

ship why that's very observant of you

wizzy

zeder fire up the hyper boosters issue

in all planets bulletin we'll find earth

or i'm not bula from zula

fly directly into this disturbance

there's something strange going on

[Music]

earth we found ours

wow

[Music]

oh my you look sick

thanks

[Music]

i got a kind of uh

cold in my polar ice cap

oh dear i guess you're not used to being

this far from the sun

yeah it's not exactly beach weather out

here i'll bet and the sun is such a big

beautiful toasty ball of warmth i'm sure

she'd love for you to come back home

where you belong yeah well don't hold

your breath greenie the view was nice

but the neighbors weren't

you know even if she wanted to go she'd

never make it back to the solar system

in this condition

then there's only one thing to do let's

get her back to zula

[Music]

great galaxy it's a vertuzian vortex

a million times yeah but never towing a

whole planet well there's the first time

for everything redirecting all onboard

power to the thrusters

[Music]

cedar we can't see where we're going

without our rides

[Music]

[Music]

light the way

[Music]

hey sometimes i feel like no one

appreciates me but then i remember that

i'm part of something bigger i'm an

important part of the zula patrol team

[Music]

hmm

whole lot ah

everything in space that travels around
