Backyardigans:
"into the deep"
Tyrone:
(mimics submarine sonar)
ping... Ping... Ping...
Ping... Ping... Ping...
Ping... Ping... Ping...
(Rapidly)
ping... Ping, ping,
ping, ping, ping,
Ping, ping, ping,
ping, ping, ping.
Navigator tyrone,
what is it?
I'm getting a signal
on the submarine sonar.
There's something nearby!
Pablo:
(gasps)
It's an undersea
playground slide!
I must capture it on film!
Hi, I'm submarine commander
pablo.
And I'm submarine
navigator tyrone.
We're deep sea explorers.
We discover
rare sea creatures
In our incredible submarine.
As we plunge further
and further
Into the deep!
* Into the deep we journey
* To places we've never seen
* Into the deep we travel
* In our submarine
* Our amazing submarine
* We've discovered
jellyfish *
* Pretty fish
and smelly fish *
* Seen our share
of cuttlefish *
* And salamander, too
* We've stared stingrays
in the eye *
* Seen a squid sh**t
purple dye *
* Been chased around
by octopi *
* And filmed it
all for you
* We were almost swallowed
by a humpback whale *
* We went scuba diving
* By a white shark's tail
* We've played
water polo *
* With a manatee
* We know every corner
of the deep blue sea *
And today, we will
discover a mermaid!
No one's ever discovered
one of those.
* Into the deep
we journey *
* To places
we've never seen *
* Into the deep
we travel *
* In our submarine
* Our amazing
submarine *
* Our stupendous tremendous
* Exotically aquatic
* Totally incredible
* Not quite edible
* Submarine!
Navigator tyrone,
prepare the submarine
For operation
mermaid discovery!
Preparing the submarine!
Dive, dive, dive!
Tyrone:
diving into the deep blue sea,
commander,
Where there's a whole lot
of water!
Pablo:
and coral reefs.
Tyrone:
and our incredible submarine!
(Submarine putters
through water)
Commander pablo,
we've begun our descent.
Excellent! Speed?
Fast.
Direction?
Down.
Temperature?
Cold.
Time?
Uh, now.
When we find a mermaid,
I'll film it
For all the world
to see!
Continue dive,
navigator tyrone!
Tyrone:
diving, captain!
Pablo:
* how deep are we now?
* According
to this beeper *
* Feet
Pablo:
* we must go even deeper!
* How deep
are we now? *
* The signal's
climbing steeper *
* Feet
* We must go deeper!
* Into the deep
we journey *
* To places
we've never seen *
* Into the deep
we travel *
* In our submarine
* Our amazing
submarine *
* Our stupendous tremendous
* Exotically aquatic
* Totally incredible
* Not quite edible
* Submarine!
(Submarine putters along)
(Gentle gurgling of water)
Bhrhrh!
(Gasps)
intruder!
Bhrhrh!
Mermaid uniqua!
Brrrr!
What is it,
mermaid tasha?
Look!
An intruder!
Heading right for
the entrance
To our mermaid garden!
Both:
go away!
Tasha:
shoo!
Both:
go away!
Get outta here!
Get away
from our garden!
You... Fish!
It's not working.
Looks like we're
gonna have to try...
Both:
the mermaid freak out!
Brhrhrhrhrhrhrhr!
(Growing rumble)
Both:
phew!
Our mermaid garden
is safe!
(Engine whirring)
Bhrhr?
What's that sound?
I don't know!
(Submarine engine rumbles
as it approaches)
Hide!
Uniqua:
bhrhrhrh?
Tasha:
that's the biggest fish
I've ever seen.
I don't think
that's a fish.
Come on.
Tyrone:
commander pablo,
We have just entered
the deepest part
Of the deep blue sea.
Ah! Mermaid territory!
Slow to half-speed!
(Submarine gauges twitter
and bleep)
Pablo:
prepare to search for mermaids.
Preparing mermaid search.
Submarine sonar on!
Commencing sonar scan.
Positioning video camera.
Ready to capture mermaids
on film!
Tyrone:
operation mermaid discovery
has begun!
Uniqua:
that's definitely not a fish.
Tasha:
what could it be?
Let's get
a closer look.
(Sonar device pings steadily)
Both:
bhrhrhrhrhrhr!
There are people
in that thing!
Hold on, commander pablo,
I'm getting a signal
on the sonar.
(Submarine putters)
Both:
(gasp)
Something's over there.
A mermaid?
Maybe.
Let's check it out.
(Submarine putters by)
Tasha:
they're heading right for
our mermaid garden!
We've gotta get them
to turn around!
But how?
I know.
Buhrh! Buhrhrhrhrhr!
Buhrhrhrhrhrrhrhrhrh!
Hold on.
Did you hear that?
Uniqua:
buhrhrhrhrhr!
Buhrhrhrhrhr!
I've never heard
anything like that.
It must be...
A mermaid call!
According to my sound
direction detector,
It's coming from...
Behind us.
Changing submarine direction.
It's working!
This is too easy.
We'll just lure them away
With the call
of the mermaid.
Burhrhrhrh!
(Over the sub radio)
burhrhrhrh!
That way!
Tyrone:
going that way!
Both:
burhrhrhrh!
(Giggle)
* It's the call
* It's the call
* Of the mermaid
* The most enchanting
creature *
* In the sea
**
* It's the call
* It's the call
* Of the mermaid
* The ocean's
greatest mystery *
* It's very, very hard
to resist it *
Buhrhrhrhr!
* Here it is again
in case you missed it *
Buhrhrhrhr!
* It's a little bit alarming
* But also
very charming *
* That's the
mermaid's call *
Both:
buhrhrhr! Burhrhrhr!
Tyrone:
* I find it quite difficult
to place it *
Tasha:
buhrhrhrhr!
Pablo:
* but when I hear it
I just have to chase it *
Uniqua:
buhrhrhrhr!
Tyrone:
* the noise is kind of grating
Pablo:
* yet weirdly captivating
Tyrone:
* that's the mermaid's call *
Tasha and uniqua:
burhrhrhr! Buhrhrhr!
* It's the call
* It's the call
* Of the mermaid
* The most enchanting creature
in the sea *
Tyrone:
* it's the call
* It's the call
* Of the mermaid
Pablo:
* the ocean's greatest mystery
* Go ahead,
you can try to do it *
Buhrhrhrhr!
* It's not hard
* There's really
nothing to it *
Buhrhrhrhr!
* Put your hands
on your hips *
* Blow some air
through your lips *
* That's the
mermaid's call *
Both:
buhrhrhr! Burhrhrhr!
* That's the mermaid's call
Both:
buhrhrhr!
(Submarine sonar pings steadily)
(Submarine putters by)
I have an idea.
Follow me.
(Sonar pings rapidly)
According to the sonar,
Something is right near
the submarine.
Okay,
mermaid tasha,
On the count of three,
Push with all your
mermaid might.
Ready?
Ready?
Three!
Both:
(huge grunts of effort)
Navigator tyrone,
are you driving?
I'm not driving,
commander.
Then why are we moving?
Tyrone:
beats me!
Where are we
taking this thing?
Uniqua:
right here.
(Geysers explode)
Tasha:
whoa!
Exactly.
Oh, I get it.
That will shake them
right out of the deep.
Yup.
Bye-bye, people.
Right.
Bye-bye, people.
Uniqua:
ready?
Tasha:
ready.
Both:
(grunts of effort)
push!
Both:
good one!
(Gurgling rumble)
Uh oh,
what's that?
What's what?
(Rumbling)
That.
Oh, that.
I don't know.
(Gurgling rumbles
get more intense)
Tyrone:
you know, I think we're about
to find out.
(Huge blast)
Tyrone and pablo:
ahhhhhhhhhhh!
Well that's the last
we'll see of those guys.
Let's get back
to our garden!
Both:
(giggle)
Pablo and tyrone:
ahhhhhhhhhhh!
(Splash)
Pablo and tyrone:
whoaaaa! Whoaaaa!
Whoa, whoa! Oof!
Cool.
Totally.
Navigator tyrone,
report!
Reporting, commander!
Bad news, commander!
The submarine is stuck.
Stuck?!
But we still have to capture
a mermaid on film!
Well, we could deploy
the scuba sleds.
Yes!
Precisely and exactly!
Deploy scuba sleds!
Tyrone:
deploying scuba sleds!
Pablo:
begin mermaid search!
Tyrone:
beginning mermaid search,
commander!
Home again.
And our garden
is safe!
You know,
mermaid uniqua,
We're getting
pretty good
At guarding our garden.
You said it,
mermaid tasha.
* If you're a fish
that's kind of fishy *
* Or a thief
out in the reef *
* It's time to turn
and swim the other way *
* If you're coral
that's immoral *
* Or a shark out in the dark *
* Goodbye and have
a pleasant day *
* To all you
sketchy mollusks *
* And interloping clams
Tasha:
* you underhanded turtles *
* With your underwater scams *
* To all you
thieving catfish *
* And dodgy lobsters,
too *
* Our garden's
not for you! *
* Hey hey!
* We shout
* Go away!
* Keep out!
* Excuse me,
beg your pardon *
* Whoa, whoa!
* We yell
* Please go!
* Farewell!
Both:
* it's time to leave
our garden *
* If you're a bass
that likes to trespass *
* Or an eel that
wants to steal *
* You've come to
the wrong place *
* If you're a salmon
who is scammin' *
* Or a perch
who likes to lurch *
* Then do an about-face!
* To all you
shady tuna *
* And misbehaving
groupers *
* You murky
deep sea robbers *
* And underwater
snoopers *
* To all you
shifty mackerel *
* And creepy clownfish,
too *
Both:
* our garden's not for you *
* Hey hey!
* We shout
* Go away!
* Keep out!
* Excuse me,
beg your pardon *
* Whoa, whoa!
Uniqua:
* we yell
* Please go!
* Farewell!
Both:
* it's time to leave
our garden *
* Yes it's time
to leave our garden *
(Scuba sleds whir nearby)
Both:
buhrhrhrh?
Tasha:
the people are coming!
We must guard
our garden!
Uniqua and tasha:
go away! Get outta here!
Uniqua:
get away from our garden,
you...
Both:
people!
Tyrone:
pablo, look!
(Gasps) mermaids!
Not one, but two!
I must capture them
on film!
Did he say
"capture" us?
Uh oh.
I don't think they're trying
to get to our garden.
They're trying
to get us!
Both:
(panicked)
buhrhrhrhrh!
They're getting away!
After them!
They're gonna get us!
Don't worry.
People can't swim
like mermaids can.
Swim... Up!
Come on!
(Scuba sleds whir)
Or maybe they can.
Swim down!
Tyrone:
there they go!
Tasha:
these guys are good.
Swim... Around!
Pablo:
steady...
Steady...
They're gaining on us!
What are we gonna do?!
Follow me!
They're heading
into that cave.
Follow them!
Tyrone:
following them, commander!
Whoa!
It's kinda spooky
down here.
Exactly!
And precisely!
But we can't let those
mermaids get away.
We've got to be brave!
(Shivers) creepy.
Pablo:
* you've gotta be brave
Tyrone:
* you've gotta be brave
Pablo:
* you've gotta be brave
in a cave *
* It's yucky and it's eerie
* It's creepy and it's dark
Tyrone:
* we might see a stingray
* Or a hammerhead shark
Tasha:
* stalactites and stalagmites
Uniqua:
* spooky rock formations
Tasha:
* all kinds of weird fungus
Uniqua:
* and mystery crustaceans
Pablo:
* I see a freaky shadow
* I hear
a haunting sound *
* But we must
keep on going *
Both:
* we cannot turn around
* You've gotta be brave
* You've gotta be brave
* You've gotta be brave
in a cave *
Pablo:
* you've gotta be brave
Tyrone:
* you gotta be brave
Pablo:
* you gotta be brave
in a cave *
* What's up around
that corner *
* What's down around
that bend *
* We might get lost
down here *
* Or stuck in
a dead end *
* I wish we weren't
down here *
* I miss our submarine
* Navigator tyrone,
I know just what you mean *
* The water's
really murky *
* And also kinda cold
* But we must be
courageous *
* And strong and tough
and bold! *
* 'Cause you gotta be brave *
* You've gotta be brave *
* You gotta be brave
in a cave *
Uniqua:
* you gotta be brave
Tasha:
* you gotta be brave
All:
* you gotta be brave
in a cave! *
There's nowhere
to swim!
We're trapped!
Maybe they won't
see us.
Pablo:
I see them!
Okay, now what?
Pablo:
tyrone, look.
We found them!
Wow!
And now,
the moment of truth.
I shall capture the mermaids
on film!
Uniqua and tasha:
(gasp)
They're gonna get us!
What are we gonna do?
There's only one thing
left to do.
The mermaid freak out?
Exactly!
Both: (panicked)
buhrhrhrhrhr!
Buhrhrhrhrhr!
Buhrhrhrhrhrhr!
Buhrhrhrhrhrhr!
Hey, cut that out!
This is very strange
behavior.
I must capture it on film.
Both:
burhrhrhrhrh!
(Loud rumbling and cracking)
Uniqua:
hey! Get out of the way!
Oh my, tyrone,
They're talking!
Move! Now!
Talking mermaids!
I must capture this
on film.
Oh,
for goodness sakes!
Come on!
Tasha:
burhrhr!
Uniqua:
follow me!
Tyrone and pablo:
aaahhhhhhh!
(Dodging rocks)
whoa! Whoa!
Pablo and tyrone:
phew! We made it!
Tasha and uniqua:

Pablo and tyrone:

Tasha and uniqua:
(gasps)
Uniqua, look!
Pablo:
wow!
Tyrone:
amazing!
Both: (in awe)
ahh! Whoa!
Oh no, we're in
our mermaid garden!
Which means they're
in our mermaid garden!
Uniqua and tasha:
intruders!
Get out of here!
Time for you to leave,
misters!
Both: (overlapping yells)
you don't belong here!
This is our garden! Now!
Tyrone and pablo:
huh?
And don't you try
to capture us, either!
We don't want
to capture you.
We just want
to capture you...
On film.
Uniqua and tasha:
on film?
Precisely.
Pablo:
and exactly.
We're deep sea explorers.
Would it be okay
if we film you?
Oh! Well... Okay.
I don't see why not.
Wonderful!
And now,
the moment of truth
I shall capture mermaids
on film!

(Stomach gurgles)
Uh oh.
Was that a whale?
Intruder!
No, that was just my stomach.
Tasha and uniqua:

Wanna come up
to sea level
For strawberries
