- What a beautiful day for drawing buildings.

All I need is my pen.

What?

- Did you say my name?

- Have you seen my drawing pen?

- That old pen.

Ah, it wasn't working so I threw it away.

- Oh no, that's my favorite pen.

It was only out of ink.

- It should be right here inside this trash can.

Oh no!

Where did all the trash go?

- The trash pickup was yesterday.

I feel so empty inside.

- Hello, chums.

Are you having a waste related emergency?

I'm Garbo.

I'm a garbage truck.

- I'm trying to find my dad's pen,

I accidentally threw it away.

- Well, I'm on my way

to the Waste Management Center right now.

Would you and your dad like to ride along

and look for your pen?

- This is so cool!

Do you transform too?

I'm a big fan of robots.

- The only thing I transform

is the city into a better place.

We pick up everyone's trash out of bins.

- [Watt] What's the difference between

the green and blue bins?

- We pick up the green bins for waste management.

The blue bins go to be recycled.

Let's say hi to Reese, huh.

- Hiya, kid.

I'm a recycling truck.

The trash I pick up could be reused to make other things.

- Awesome.

- Our boss, Mr. D, should be able to help you find your pen.

Ooh, there he is now.

- Welcome to the world of city sanitation!

- Detritus, what are you doing here?

- I'm the supervisor of the Waste Management Center.

What brings you to my trash palace?

- I accidentally threw out my dad's special pen.

Do you think you can find it?

- Of course!

It'll be easy to find one tiny pen

in a huge mountain of trash.

- It will? - No, it's impossible!

But since you're here, I'll give you a tour.

Follow me.

We have the honor of sorting

through all this messy treasure.

- Thanks, Mr. D.

You're pretty special too.

- You know it, home slice.

Once it's all sorted,

everything gets delivered to the landfill.

- What's a landfill?

- Spoiler alert, that's the last stop on the tour.

[soft music]

- Wow, look at all that trash

- Space is getting tight.

So we all have to reduce, reuse,

and recycle so it doesn't get too crowded.

- That's a great point.

I think we all learned a valuable lesson today.

- I'm sorry I threw out your pen, Dad.

- It's okay, buddy.

[dynamic music]

- Watt, you passed every test.

You are now the owner of the Waste Management Center.

- Wow, really?

- No, I would never give up this job.

- Thanks for the tour, Detritus.

Oh, will you sign my autograph book?

- That's a really nice pen, kid.

- My pen!

You're back.

- Yeah, good to see you, Frank.

I had a nice nap in Watt's pocket.

Did I miss anything?

- Yay, I guess I didn't throw it out after all.

- What did I tell you?

A day with the trash is never a waste.
