- Here comes Dev.

Down the court... He takes his shot and...

Oops.

Oh, well.

- Hey, Dev. We're here.

- Ready to play Skillsville?

- You know it.

- Um... Where are we gonna do this?

- Yeah, there's not much room to play.

- We have plenty of space.

Now where's my game projector?

- It could be anywhere in here.

- Yeah, my grandmother's always telling me

to keep my room organized.

That seems like a lot of work.

If I was in charge, I'd never clean my room.

Ah, here it is!

- Sweet! Let's play.

- Launch Skillsville.

- Devosaurus!

[growling]

ParCora!

[grunting]

Racer Rae!

- Whoo!

- Welcome to Skillsville.

- Hey, hi, h*-h*, you're here!

Ah, tell me, what job do you want to play today?

- Mud! - Mud?

Huh? Don't know that job.

- No, I mean, those Beeples are covered in mud.

- Let's see what's going on.

[beeping]

Uh-huh. [beeping]

Oh. These Beeples got all muddy during soccer practice,

and they need to get their jerseys clean in time

for their big game today.

- That is a problem.

- Maybe we can help?

- I know. We can wash their jerseys for them

at the laundromat.

[upbeat music]

- Great idea, let's do it!

- Scout, gather up all the muddy jerseys.

We'll get them washed in time for your game.

[beeping happily]

- Way to take charge, Dev.

- Ooh, can I be in charge of the laundromat?

- Sure, you can be the owner.

- Yes! Let's get to work.

- I'll take those.

[laughing]

That's a muddy one.

[♪♪]

We've got lots of... Whoa, whoa...

Jerseys to wash!

So, Dev, you think you've got the skills to get the job done?

- Sure. Being the boss will be easy.

I get to make all the decisions.

- Laundromat Owner Challenge:

Get all the clothes clean.

- Okay, Dev, what do we do?

- I've been to the laundromat with my grandmother.

It's simple. Clothes go in the basket,

push the basket to the washer,

clothes go in the washer.

- Got it. - I'll get the washer ready.

- I'll help.

[upbeat music]

- Here you go, Cora.

- Got it!

- Scout, you can pour the soap in.

Just a little.

- I won't let you down, Boss.

[humming]

- Now turn on the machine and let it wash.

[staff twirling]

[beep]

Being in charge is so easy. Am I right?

- When will the wash be done? [buzzing]

- Sounds like now.

- Whoa! In this game,

you can wash clothes way faster than normal.

Let's see how clean those jerseys are.

- A clean red jersey and a clean...

pink jersey?

- Pink? But I thought we were just washing red and white ones?

- That's strange.

- This one's pink, too.

This is red. Pink, red, pink.

Oh, no. Red.

- Where are all the white jerseys?

- That's all there is.

- So, the white jerseys somehow turned pink?

- Ooh, sorry. Laundry fail. [error notification]

Laundromat Owner Challenge, do over!

Get all the clothes clean.

Without changing their colour this time.

- What do we do differently?

- Um, well...

- We don't want the white jerseys to turn pink again.

- Right. Uh...

- And the Beeples will be coming to pick up their jerseys soon.

- Dev, what do we do?

- Uh... - We're gonna need to hurry.

- I... I don't know.

I need to pause!

[beep]

Being the boss is harder than I thought.

I have to make the decisions,

but I don't even know what went wrong.

- Yeah, why did the white jerseys all turn pink?

- Well, when I'm painting,

I can make the colour pink by mixing together red paint

and white paint.

- That must be what happened.

The colours from the red and white jerseys

mixed together in the wash to make pink jerseys.

- Oh, how do we make sure that doesn't happen again?

- We need to get organized.

Hmm... What if we don't wash all the jerseys all together?

We can sort them by colour

and wash them in different machines.

- Yeah, sorting is a great strategy.

- That'll keep us organized.

- Now I know what to do.

Unpause.

[upbeat music]

Okay, we're gonna wash these clothes

the right way this time.

Let's get sorted.

Cora, you put all the red jerseys in this basket.

And Rae, you put all the white jerseys in this one.

- Okay. - We're on it.

- Red. - White.

- Red. - White.

- Red. - White.

- Red. - White.

- Great. Uh, where's Scout?

- Oh, way ahead of you, Boss.

I already got the washer started and I am putting in the soap.

- Scout... - Uh-huh.

Just want you to know that you can count on me

for a job well done.

- Scout, that's too much soap!

- Whoa, ah-ha! Woops.

[washer rattling] [bubbling]

Hey, hey! Whoa, whoa.

- Uh-oh. We've got trouble.

- Bubble trouble.

- Dev, how are we gonna get these jerseys

into those washers?

- Uh, we'll toss them in.

[notification ding] - Laundry Toss Challenge.

- Sweet. It'll be just like free throws

at basketball practice.

[grunting]

[splashing] Yeah!

- Nice one!

- Just remember to keep the colours sorted,

red jerseys in one machine...

- And white jerseys in the other.

- Scout and I will start cleaning up this bubbly mess.

- Here we go.

[upbeat music]

- Whoa! [Scout giggling]

- Let's do it!

[ding] - Score!

- Alright!

- Yes. - Woo-hoo!

- Scout, duck!

- Actually, I'm a pupper-fly.

[ding]

- Great team effort, everyone.

Time to add the soap.

Cora, could you do it this time?

- Remember, just a little.

[liquid pouring]

- Let's give these jerseys a spin.

- Oh, I hope they don't change colours this time.

- Well, let's find out.

[washer buzzing]

- White, white.

White. White!

They're all still white!

- Red. And these are all still red.

- That was loads of fun.

[cheering]

- Good work, team.

- Laundromat Challenge: Level two.

Dry all the clothes.

- Okay.

We don't have much time before the Beeples come back

for their jerseys.

So let's get these into the dryers, fast.

- Fast? Okay, Boss.

[upbeat music]

Whoa!

[thumping] [powering down]

- Oh-oh!

- Um, woopsie!

[buttons clicking]

- Uh... The dryers aren't working!

- Uh, my bad?

- We can't give the Beeples wet jerseys!

- Dev, you're in charge, what do we do?

- There's no time for me to get the dryers fixed.

We'll have to dry them another way.

- Let's see...

[beeping]

[ding]

We could hang them up and let them air dry,

but that would take too long.

- Hmm...

Unless they're moving really fast through the air.

- Sounds like it's turbo time!

Let's do it!

[upbeat music]

- Whoa! - Super-speed cycle.

- Woof-hoo! - Let's fly.

- Go, Rae! - And dry!

- Yeah!

- Great job, Rae.

Now all the jerseys are dry.

[beeping]

- And just in time.

- Hello, as promised,

we have your clean and dry jerseys.

[surprised beeping] Wrong size.

Be right back.

Okay, team, let's get organized.

We have to sort these again.

But this time, we'll sort them by colour and size.

We'll make four piles.

Large white, small white.

Large red, small red.

- Got it.

- That's a great way to organize.

[gentle music]

- Large white. - Small white.

- Large white... [error notification]

Large red. [ding]

- Small red. [ding]

[grunting]

- Got it.

[grunting]

- Large white. - Small white.

- Large red. - Small red.

[ding]

[beeping happily]

- Now all your jerseys are clean in time for your soccer game.

Good luck! [beeping]

- We got all the jerseys clean and sorted

and given back to the right Beeples.

And just in time for their game.

- Laundromat Owner Challenge: Complete!

[cheering]

- Amazing work today, everyone.

- You too, Dev.

You really took charge and did a great job.

- Yeah, you've got some serious skills.

- Thanks. Being in charge was a lot more work

than I thought it would be.

But I liked it!

- See ya next time, Scout.

- Later, Gamers.

- Good game.

- That was fun.

- Yeah... whoa!

I guess my room really could be neater.

Maybe I could get more organized if I sort things into piles.

- We can help.

- Yeah, just tell us where you wanna put everything.

- Okay, the books can go over there.

And the toys can go here.

And I'll put the clothes over there.

[♪♪]

He shoots, he scores! [giggling]

- Almost... And... Ha!

Got it.

[gasping] Mom, come see this.

- What do you have there, Rae?

- I made an automatic bed maker.

I can make my bed easier and faster.

- That is so creative.

Let's see it in action.

- Here we go. Ah!

[clip clicking] Aww...

- Oh, that's okay.

Even the best inventors don't get it right the firs time.

- But I'm not an inventor.

- Sure you are.

An inventor creates something useful

that didn't exist before.

And that's what you're doing with your bed maker.

- I guess, but my invention doesn't work.

- Not yet,

but I'm sure you will figure it out.

[projector vibrating]

Maybe it's time for a break.

- Cora and Dev wanna play Skillsville.

- Have fun.

- Hey, Rae. Ready to play&

- Ready. - Let's do it.

- Lauch Skillsville.

- Racer Rae!

- Whoo!

- Devosaurus!

[growling]

ParCora!

[grunting]

Welcome to Skillsville.

- Where's Scout?

[grunting] - Oh, good, you're here.

We've got a problem on our paws.

- What's going on, Scout?

- Might be better to just show you.

To the telepuddle!

[grunting]

[beeping in the distance]

[beeping excitedly]

[beeping sadly]

These Beeples really want to go sledding on Mount Fro Yo.

- Sledding? I love sledding!

- Ah, but they can't get up the mountain.

Because it's too slippery.

[beeping]

- Hey, maybe I can invent something

that can get the Beeples up the mountain.

- That's exactly what we need.

An inventor!

Think you've got the skills to get the job done?

- I can try.

- Here that, Beeples?

You're gonna go sledding!

[chanting]: Sledding, sledding!

[beeping enthusiastically]

- Inventor Challenge:

Create an invention to get the Beeples

to the top of the mountain.

- Hmm, how am I gonna do this?

- The Fro Yo on that mountain is so slippery.

- Great for sledding down,

but not great for going up.

- So, we need a way to get them up the mountain

without slipping.

What if they never actually touch it?

- Yeah! They could just fly up.

Like this.

[humming]

- Not everyone has wings like you, Scout.

- Oh, yeah!

- Maybe I can invent something that can help the Beeples fly.

- Whatever it is, we should figure it out fast

because the Beeples really wanna go sledding.

[beeping excitedly]

[chanting]: Sledding, sledding!

- Just the Beeples, Dev?

[giggling] - Well, the Beeples

and me!

It looks super fun.

Am I right?

- Okay, let's see what I have to work with.

Hmm... I can use...

this backpack and...

Oh, this balloon!

[gentle music]

See? A balloon powered jetpack!

- That looks awesome!

- And now Beeples can fly to the top of the mountain.

- Great invention, Rae.

What are you gonna call it?

- Yeah, it needs a name.

- How about the Go Go Fro Yo?

- Nice. - Epic.

[upbeat music] [beeping]

[beeping happily]

- Okay. Time to get the Go Go Fro Yo going!

On my count, let the air out the balloons.

Three, two, one. Blast off!

- There they go! - Yeah!

[beeping nervously]

- Oh, no!

- Looks like the Go Go Fro Yo is a no go!

[grunting] - Got ya!

[grunting] - You're okay.

- Safe!

I can't believe it.

I really thought my invention would work.

[beeping] - Uh-huh.

The Beeples say they still want to go sledding.

- But now I don't know what to do.

I need to pause!

[beeping] [screaming cuts off]

My invention didn't turn out the way that I thought it would.

- Maybe you just need to think a little differently.

- You mean, come up with a completely different invention?

- Maybe not completely different.

There could be some things you could keep.

- Yeah, maybe I don't have to start all over.

Maybe I just need to make some changes.

- Sounds like a good strategy.

- Okay, unpause!

[screaming resumes]

[moaning]

The balloon jetpacks did help the Beeples fly

for a little while.

- They just ran out of air too quickly.

- So, maybe, I can make a change to the size of the balloon.

Like, this.

- Woof. That's one big balloon.

- Which means it has more air in it.

Should be enough to get them to the top of the mountain.

- But now the balloon is too big to attach to a backpack.

Hmm, let's make another change.

What else can I use?

How about this pail?

- Oh, to take to the beach? - No.

For the Beeples to ride in!

[upbeat music]

[success notification]

- Now you can get all three Beeples up the mountain

at the same time.

[beeping excitedly]

- Too bad there's not room for one more.

[beeping]

For me?

I can go?

[beeping approvingly]

Yes! Thanks.

I'm going sledding!

If no one else wants to go.

[giggling]

[chanting]: Sledding, sledding, sledding!

- Time to test the Go Go Fro Yo ..

Everyone, ready?

- Ready!

- Three, two, one. Blast off!

[grunting] [balloon deflating]

[Scout]: Yee-haw!

[shouting]

- Oh, no!

I got it this time! - I got it! I got it!

[shouting] - Ah, there it goes.

- Whoa!

[beeping nervously] Whoa, whoa!

[music stops]

[error notification]

- You know maybe this isn't the best day for sledding after all.

[error notification] - Oh, sorry.

This invention went downhill.

- I can't believe it didn't work, again.

- So think differently again.

Use your strategy.

- Right, I'll make a change.

Hmm... what kind of change could I make to my invention?

The balloon did make it go up.

- But then it went... [imitates deflating]

All over the place!

Not to the top of the mountain.

- If only there was a way to keep it on track.

[train whistling]

- On track!

Like a train on a track.

I've got an idea.

We can use this rope as a track.

To help guide my invention up the mountain.

Is there a way to tie the rope to the top of the mountain?

[playful music]

[ding]

- We tie it to the cherry on top.

- Yes, but how?

- I'll tie it to the top!

- Okay, we need a new balloon.

Make it bigger.

And attach it to the pail.

[ding]

[humming]

[grunting] - Got it!

- Now drop down the other end of the rope.

[grunting]

Dev, can you put it through the handle?

[grunting] Good.

Now, Cora, can you tie to that tree?

- On it!

[twirling]

[grunting] - Ooh.

What do you call this invention?

- The Go Go Fro Yo ..

Let's test it out.

Three, two, one, blast off!

- Ah!

[grunting] [balloon deflating]

- It's working!

[chanting]: Sledding, sledding, sledding!

- You're the tops!

Inventor Challenge complete!

[fireworks exploding]

[cheering]

- Epic!

- Now for the best part.

Let's go sledding!

[beeping excitedly]

- Yeah! Rawr!

- And the Go Go Fro Yo comes back down on its own.

Ready for me sledders.

- Now the Beeples have a way to go sledding whenever they want.

- All thanks to Rae's invention.

- Yeah! Rawr!

That was awesome! [beeping happily]

- Bye, everyone!

See ya next time, Scout.

- Later, Gamers.

- So, maybe I am an inventor.

And I just need to think a little differently

about my automatic bed maker.

Hmm...

I just need to make some changes.

[upbeat music]

I did it! Mom, come see!

- See you what?

- My new and improved invention!

Presenting The-Bed-O-Maker.

I kept some of what I had, but made some changes.

I put two clips on the covers.

And then attached them to two strings.

Check this out.

[grunting]

- Wow!

What a fantastic invention.

- Best bed maker ever!

Now, making my bed is gonna be so much easier!

- Great job, Rae.

You kept trying until you got it right.

Just like an inventor.

- I'm feeling pretty good about it.

- Do you wanna come in the kitchen for a snack?

- Sure. Do we have any Fro Yo?

- Let's check.

- Maybe next time I can invent an automatic room cleaner.

- That would be great.
