- Almost finished
painting my model plane.

What do you think?

- Looking good, Nick.

And I'm almost done drawing
the lion from my book.

- [sighs]
A nice, quiet afternoon.

[sighs]

- Ah!
- What happened?

- How did you do that?
- Do what?

- Spill my water.

- I didn't touch it.

- Not me.

- Well, I didn't do it.
- Me neither.

Wait, what didn't I do?

- Hi, Cat.

My water glass spilled over
and nobody did it.

- You mean it's a mystery?

Oh, I love mysteries,

they're so mysterious.

- But how do we solve this one?

- Easy sneezy.
With a little help from this.

- Flowers?

- Mm? Oh!
Oopsie, sorry.

Uh, hmm, it was supposed to be
my mystery-solving guide book.

Now where could I have left it?

- Sometimes it helps
to think about

the last place
you saw it.

- A-ha!
You're right.

The last time I had it
was at the Great Causeway.

Would you like to
come with me to get it?

- If it will help us
solve this mystery.

- Your father won't mind
at all if you do.

[upbeat music]

- Dad.
Can Nick and I go

with the Cat in the Hat
to the Great Causeway?

We have to get his
mystery-solving guide book

so we can solve a mystery
in the treehouse.

- Well, there's nothing worse
than an unsolved mystery.

You'd better go.

- We can go,
we can go.

- I know,
I know.

To the Thinga-ma-jigger.

Buckle up.

what this place is,

but it looks

but aren't we here

to get that
mystery-solving guide book?

- Yes, and I know exactly
where it is.

This way.
I left it right...

there.
I thought.

- Unless it's invisible,
there's no book here, Cat.

- Maybe somebody took it?

- A-ha!
Another mystery.

- Wait,
look at those footprints.

Maybe whoever took
the guide book went that way.

- You're right, Nick,
those footprints can be a clue.

- You discovered a clue
with just one single look.

You might not even need
that old mystery book.

- We still have to solve
the mystery at home, Cat.

- Right,
let's follow those footprints.

[sneaky music]

The footprints stop here.

Whoever we're following
must've gone up this ramp.

- Good thinking, Nick.
Up this way quick.

[upbeat music]

Whoa.
Why did I go up?

Uh, can you come back here?

Hmm.
Okay.

Now go back.

This isn't a ramp,
it's more like a seesaw.

- I see, so?

- The end that's heavier
goes down,

and the end that's
lighter goes up.

Together you two
are heavier than I am.

- Mystery solved.

gotten us any closer

in this cup?

- Hmm.
A mystery indeed.

- Hmm.
Unless we can find the cause.

- You mean what made it happen?
- Exactly.

- Let's see, you opened
the gate like this...

Oh, it must've bumped
into this hammer thing.

- Right, but where does
the ball come in?

- Well, if the ball
was in this thing,

maybe the hammer made it
go up this pole.

- And it caused the ball to go
down that curvy chute.

- And that made
the whistle blow.

Let's put the ball there
and see what happens

if you swing the gate
open again.

- Oh, I can't wait to see.

♪

[clank, clicking]

[whistle blows]

- It happened again.

So opening the gate
was the cause.

- A-ha! I see.
And the effect?

- You mean what happened next?

- What did happen next?

- The ball went up
to the top of the chute,

and then went down
and landed in the cup,

which made the
whistle blow.

That's the effect.

- Great, but it doesn't
help us find the book.

Remember the book?

- Right, we were
following the footprints,

but now I see too many.

How are we going to follow
footprints when they go off

in every direction?

- It's impossible.

- Thing Two,
it wasn't Thing One's fault.

- We saw it all.
- [whistles]

- Nick, Sally, can you
please explain to the Things

what just happened?
- Sure.

Thing One pulled down
on this rope by mistake,

and that caused
the boot to swing back.

[groans]

- And when he let go,

the boot swung forward

and kicked the ball that was
at the top of the slide.

The effect of kicking the ball

was that it rolled
down the slide.

- And it almost
hit Thing Two

before knocking down
that big blue thing.

both: [chattering happily]

- Well, I'm glad you
figured that out.

Now maybe we can get back
to looking for the book.

- Oh, no, we'll never get it
down from way up there.

Not so fast, Fish.

Maybe we don't have
to reach it ourselves.

- I don't follow you.

- I think I do.

All we have to do is think
of cause and effect.

- And see how they connect.

- Exactly.

- I still don't see how
they're going to get the book.

- If any team can do the trick,

I'd choose
our Sally and our Nick.

- Just move it a little bit
more this way.

- [grunting, groaning]

Phew.
- There.

I think that'll work perfectly.
We're ready here, Nick.

What about you?

both: Ready.

who spilled the glass of water.

- And we're going to show you
how it happened.

- My glass of water was
on the edge of the table

and my model plane box
was over here.

- The ball was here,
just on the edge of the ruler,

which was resting
on this eraser.

Now watch what happens
when I put my book

on this end
of the ruler.

- It's going to cause
the ball to roll,

which causes
the box to fall over.

- And the effect of that is

Nick's glass of water
will spill.

Ready?

and that's why you two
have my total respect.

all: Yay!
[cheering, laughing]

♪

- For everything that happens,
there's one thing to expect.

If you follow every move,

you'll find the cause
and the effect.

- Cause and effect?
- What does that mean?

- Cause is the hand that
is pushing the gate.

The effect is it opening.
Now, isn't that great?

Cause and effect.
See how they connect?

- Cause and effect.

See how they connect.

- The cause is your feet
pushing into the sand.

The effect is your footprints.
Now aren't they grand?

Cause and effect.
See how they connect?

both: Cause and effect.
See how they connect?

- The cause is a pebble
when you drop it in a pool.

The effect is the ripples.
Now aren't they cool?

[cackles]
Cause and effect.

See how they connect?

both: Cause and effect.
See how they connect?

- The cause is the mallet
drumming on a b*at.

The effect is the sound.

Now, isn't that neat?[laughs]

both: Yeah!

- Cause and effect.
See how they connect?

both: Cause and effect.
See how they connect.

something else will happen too.

If you give a smile to someone,

they will smile
right back at you.

you were practicing.

Play something.

See?
It did it again.

- Maybe you shook the water.
- Uh-uh.

I was perfectly still.
The water shook me.

- Water can't dance to music.
Can it?

- Mm, I don't think so.

- So what's going on?

What's making
Fish's water move?

- Did someone just
ask a big question?

[cackles]
I love questions.

- Oh, hi, Cat.

What's so great
about questions?

- Great question
Because asking questions

leads to looking for answers.

And looking for answers
is always an adventure.

So, what's the question?
- [giggles]

We want to find out
why Fish's water moves

when we play our instruments.

- Now that is a great question.

And I know the perfect way
to find an answer.

With a visit
to the Jingly Jungle

and the Great Vibrato.

- Who's that?

- Only the most amazing
musician ever.

Lucky for you,
she's doing a concert today.

Maybe you'd like to go see.Or hear.

- Going to a music concert
is always a great idea.

But will it answer
our question.

- Good question.
And there's only one way

to find out.
Your father will not mind

at all if you do.

- Dad, can we go see a concert
by the Great Vibrato

in the Jingly Jungle

- Would you be okay if you were
flipped upside down

on a mushroom
and couldn't get up?

- How did you get flipped over?

- I was stretching my wings
before my performance,

and I just got carried away.

Next thing I knew,
I was flipped on my back.

- Vibrato, is that you?

- Is that the Cat?
The Cat in the Hat?

- Your number one fan.

a few new fans,

Nick, Sally, and Fish.

- Hang on, Vibrato.
We'll save you.

Whoa.

Ew, it's too slippery to climb.

How are we going
to rescue Vibrato?

- Why don't you just fly up
in the Thinga-ma-jigger?

- The Jingly Jungle is much
too jungley for that.

- Good point.

What if we throw her
a safety line?

One of these vines would reach.

Whoa-ho-ho.
That's so cool.

- What's cool?

[voice trembling]
Eh-eh-eh-whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh.

- Aw, why did you make it stop?

- The sound stopped
when the vine stopped moving.

- So where did the sound go?
- Another good question.

- I think I know.

[vine resonates]

The vine only makes a sound
when it's moving, see?

[vine resonates]

- Interesting answer.

So, the sound and the vibration
happen together

and stop together.

- Vibration?

That's what you call it
when something shakes

back and forth?
- And forth and back.

- Vibration sounds
kind of like Vibrato.

- Ahem,
speaking of me,

weren't you supposed to be
forming a rescue plan?

get up that high to help you?

vibration to rescue Vibrato.

Vibrato vibrate too.
