03x19 - Sid's Pet Project

Post by bunniefuu »

Hey, scientists, it'’s

Me--sid. I'’m going to take care

Of my grandma'’s dog philbert for

The whole weekend, but first, I

Need to investigate what pets

Need to stay healthy and happy.

Come explore with me, sid the

Science kid, coming up next.

Hey, is this thing on? Ha ha!

♪ Hey, sid, what do you say?

What you want to learn today? ♪

♪ I want to know why things

Happen and how and I want to

Know everything now--oh, yeah!

How does this thing work?

Why does that stuff change?

How does that do what

It just did? Hmm.

What'’s up with the sky?

Do you think I could fly?

The world is spinning

And I want to know why

I got a lot of questions

And big ideas

I'’m... ♪

Oh, I can'’t wait for the

Surprise. Whoo hoo! Ha ha ha!

Ah...oh, hi. Today is gonna be

Great. You know why? Because my

Grandma told me she has a

Surprise for me. What if it'’s a

Giant ice cream sundae or an

Amazing rocket ship? Pshoo!

Whoo! I can'’t wait to find out.

Did someone say, "grandma"?

Oh, grandma, you'’re here.

Hello.

Ha ha! Hi. Oh, hey, do you

Have a surprise for me?

Oh, well, that'’s what I came

To talk to you about, kiddo.

I'’m going on a hiking trip this

Weekend, so do you know anyone

Who could take care of good, old

Philbert, the best dog in the

Whole world? Hmm?

Yeah. Me. Yeah. I can do it.

Yeah, yeah. Hey, is that my

Surprise?

Well, yes. It is...

Yay!

But remember, if you'’re going

To be in charge of philbert,

It'’s your job to give him

Everything he needs.

Oh, I will. Yeah. I'’ll take

Really good care of him,

Grandma. Thank you. Thank you,

Thank you, thank you.

Oh, you'’re welcome, sid.

Okey dokey. I'’m gonna go help

With breakfast. I'’ll see you

Soon.

Great. Thanks, grandma.

Mm-hmm.

Ha ha ha! Oh, this is great.

I'’m gonna have so much fun with

Philbert the whole weekend.

Hey, if I do a good job taking

Care of philbert, maybe I can

Get my very own puppy because

Mom and dad keep telling me,

"Sid, you have to wait," but I

Want to have a cute, cuddly

Puppy right now. Ha! So I just

Got to know, when can I have my

Own puppy?

Sid, breakfast time.

Ooh, great. Coming, mom.

Breakfast time!

Good morning, everyone.

Morning, sid.

Hey, morning, sid.

Guess what. I'’m gonna take

Care of philbert all weekend.

Yeah. We heard. It should be

A lot of fun.

And if I do a good job with

Philbert, can I get my own

Puppy?

Please, please? Pretty please?

Aw, sid, I'’m glad you're

Excited to take care of philbert

For the weekend, but you should

Know that taking care of a pet

Is a big responsibility.

Responsi-what now?

Responsibility. It means it'’s

Your job to make sure philbert

Has everything he needs while

He'’s here.

Oh, no problem. We'’ll run

Around and play all day and all

Night. Like I said, no problem.

Oh, sid, that sounds like a

Ton of fun, but there'’s a lot

More to taking care of a pet

Than that.

That'’s right. There's dog

Food, dog treats.

Dog leash, dog collar.

Alice, does he need a dog bed?

Oh, probably. That'’s right.

Uh, yikes. So this whole

Taking care of a pet thing

Sounds a little harder than I

Thought. Hmm, no problem. After

Breakfast, I'’m gonna investigate

More at school.

♪ I love my mom

My mom is cool

But now it'’s time

For having fun at school, yeah ♪

Ha ha ha!

Hi.

Mwah.

♪ I'’m looking for my friends

I'’m looking for you

There'’s gabriela ♪

♪ Watch what I can do

Yeah! Ha ha! Ready, set, go!

Wow.

♪ I'’m looking for my friends

I'’m looking for you

Hey, there'’s gerald ♪

Yeah. Check out my moves.

Gerald in the house.

Cool.

♪ I'’m looking for my friends

I'’m looking for you

Hey, there'’s may ♪

May I show you how I groove?

All right. Whoo hoo! So cool.

Groovy.

♪ We'’re looking

For our friends

We'’re looking for you

Hey, there'’s sid ♪

Did you hear the one about

The kid who wanted to know

Everything about everything?

That'’s you.

You got me.

[Laughter]

♪ Da da da da da

♪ Yeah

We'’re looking for our friends

And look what we found

We found each other

Friends ♪

[Laughter]

And now it'’s time for the sid

Survey. Today'’s survey question

Is, have you ever taken care of

A pet? Let'’s go get some

Answers.

Here comes the ball, sid.

Ooh, ok. Ha ha!

Boom.

Got it.

Ha ha ha! Good one.

Thanks, gabriela. Have you

Ever taken care of a pet?

I'’ve never taken care of my

Own pet, but my older brother

Mateo has a goldfish, and

Sometimes I feed it

Little flaky things.

Wow.

He loves them, and he goes,

"Bloop bloop bloop bloop."

That'’s cool. Thanks,

Gabriela.

"Bloop bloop bloop."

Huh? Oh, hi, guys.

Hey, sid.

Hiya, sid.

So, gerald, have you ever

Taken care of a pet?

Um, I don'’t think so, but,

Oh, if I did, I'’d want to get a

Walrus.

A walrus? Where would you

Keep him?

In my bathtub.

Ha ha! That'’s a pretty good

Walrus, gerald.

Thank you.

So, may, do you take care of

A pet?

Yes. I take care of my cat

Moo shu every day. I give her

Cat food and water, and I play

With her, and I do it all

Because I love her.

Wow, may, it sounds like you

Do a great job keeping moo shu

Happy. Ha ha!

Thank you.

Sure. Bye.

Bye. Gerald! Where are you?

And now the results of my

Survey. Gabriela says she has

Fed a goldfish, and gerald says

He wishes he had a walrus...

Ar ar ar ar ar ar ar! Ha ha!

And may gives her cat food

And water and plays with her.

Everybody! Rug time!

Hey, that'’s teacher susie!

Rug time. Come on. Let'’s go.

♪ It'’s rug time

Come on in

Rug time

Take a seat

Rug time ♪

♪ We'’re ready ♪

♪ Everybody move your feet

Rug time ♪

We'’ve got a lot to learn today ♪

Ar ar ar ar ar ar ar!

Ar ar ar ar! Ha ha!

I am a walrus. Somebody please

Give me some fish. I'’m so

Hungry.

Oh, sure, mr. Walrus.

Here you go. Splat.

Um! Num num num num!

Thank you. Ha ha! Ar ar ar ar!

Sid, that was very nice of

You to give gerald some fish.

Well, I need all the practice

Taking care of animals that I

Can get, see, because this

Weekend, my grandma'’s dog

Philbert is staying with me.

Oh, what fun, but, you know,

Taking care of a pet is a big

Responsibility.

Yeah. That'’s what my mom

Said.

Well, speaking of moms,

Someone'’s mom is visiting our

Class today.

Gabriela, would you like to

Introduce our guest?

Ok. Introducing a scientist

Who studies cool things in the

Ocean. Let'’s hear it for my mom

The marine biologist--

Dr. Cordoba.

Yay!

Oh, thank you. Gracias.

Hi, everyone. I'’m so happy to

Join you today.

We were just talking about

How to take care of a pet, and

Since you'’re a marine biologist,

I bet you know a lot about

Taking care of animals.

I sure do. You know, a pet is

A living thing, and so are all

Of you. So what kinds of things

Do you all need to stay healthy?

Oh, well, I like to eat

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner,

Oh, and a snack,

Maybe two snacks.

Yeah. Pets need food, too.

Yes, and water.

And a home.

Very good. Anything else?

Here'’s a hint.

[Inhales and exhales]

Oh. Animals need to breathe.

Muy bien. Very good.

Well, susie, I think they'’re

Ready for their surprise.

Yes.

A surprise?

Come on. Your surprise is

Waiting for you in the...

Super fab lab.

Yeah. Let'’s go.

Let'’s go see what it is.

Ha ha ha!

Heh heh.

Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha!

Super fab lab! Investigate!

Explore! Discover! Ah!

Look at that.

Wow.

Is this stuff our surprise?

That'’s right. Today you're

Getting a class pet.

Wh--something is in th--

Oh. Oh, look.

Wow.

Wow, a praying mantis.

Yeah. Wait. What'’s a

Praying mantis?

Well, a praying mantis is an

Insect that lives in nature on

Plants and leaves, and it'’s your

Class pet, a gift from me to

You.

Oh, gracias, mama.

De nada. You'’re welcome, and

You can observe your praying

Mantis and study him, just like

Real scientists.

What does he eat and drink?

Praying mantises drink water,

Just like us.

So the water goes in here?

You got it, and you know what

They like to eat?

What?

Crickets.

Yeah!

Crickets? Cool.

It is cool, may.

Hey, hey, should we put some

Stuff in here so he can play?

Great idea. Maybe you can

Find some leaves and twigs so he

Can hide, climb, and get some

Exercise.

Mama, we forgot something,

Remember? You said animals need

To breathe.

They sure do. This screen

Goes on top and lets in lots

Of air.

Boy, taking care of pets is

Hard. There are so many things

To remember.

Don'’t worry. We're going to

Make a classroom pet chart.

That way, we'’ll know whose turn

It is to take care of our pet.

Ok, scientists. Let'’s make a

Nice home for our new class pet.

Yay!

Hey, you'’re a scientist.

You can try this, too. Ha ha!

Ok, scientists. We'’re going

To make a home for a new class

Pet--a hermit crab. Hermit crabs

Like to dig and hide, so add

Some shredded coconut and soft

Soil. You can also use gravel

And soft sand. Hermit crabs like

To climb, so put in a big piece

Of bark and a log. Spray the

Terrarium every day to keep it

Moist and humid and remember to

Add water into a bowl. Then put

In some apples for food.

You can observe your hermit

Crabs every day so you can

Discover how they move and how

They eat and how high they can

Climb. You can explore all the

Ways hermit crabs behave, just

Like a real scientist studying

Animals in the wild. When a

Hermit crab grows, it needs to

Move into a bigger shell, so

Make sure you have extra shells

In the terrarium and since they

Like to climb, remember to cover

The top. Now it'’s time to make a

Chart. Remember, someone needs

To feed him. Someone else can

Give him water, and, just like

Us, hermit crabs need to

Exercise, so make sure they have

Things to climb on. Remember to

Keep their home humid by

Spraying water and don'’t forget

To always have extra shells.

Great job, scientists.

How do you like your new

Home?

"I like it."

I think he does like it, may,

And your new pet chart is a

Great way to remember everything

He needs.

Oh, yeah. Hey, look. My job

Today was to fill up his water

Bowl.

I found leaves and sticks for

Him to exercise on.

My job was to put on his

Metal screen so he could get

Lots of air.

And I got to feed him a

Cricket.

And I'’ll make sure we have a

Supply of crickets to feed him

Every day.

But wait. We'’re only in

School during the week. Who will

Take care of him on saturday and

Sunday?

Oh, don'’t worry. I'll bring

Him home with me, and I promise

To take good care of him.

Oh, thanks, susie.

You know, there is one more

Very important thing your pet is

Missing.

What?

A name!

Oh, yeah. Right.

Ok. I have to head back to

Work, but I had a great time

Today.

Aw, thank you for coming.

Thank you.

Bye, dr. Cordoba.

Enjoy your new pet.

Bye, mija.

Bye, mama.

Bye, everyone.

Thank you.

See you later.

Ok, scientists. It'’s time to

Play with all your new ideas,

And you can also think of a name

For your new pet.

Good idea. Come on. Let'’s go.

And now it'’s time to play

Everyone'’s favorite game show--

"Name...

Our...

Pet."

Ha ha! Ok. Our first

Contestant today on "name our

Pet" is gerald.

Ok. I have the perfect name.

What?

Gerald jr.

Hmm, ok. Any other ideas?

Yes. Gerald sr.

Very good, gerald. Thank you.

No problem.

Ha ha! Our next contestant is

Gabriela. Do you have a name for

Our praying mantis?

Hmm, uh, I don'’t know.

Oh, wait, wait. Now I really

Have the perfect name.

What?

Geraldo. Ha!

Hmm.

Or maybe not.

Yeah. Ok. Our next contestant

Is may.

Hello. I have an idea.

Since our pet is a praying

Mantis, what about manny?

That'’s a good one, may.

Ha ha! We have a winner.

Thank you for playing

"Name our pet."

[Applause]

Ooh.

Ok, you guys. Let'’s play

Pretend.

Ok.

Sid, you'’re the daddy.

Ok.

May, you'’re the mommy.

Ok.

And, gerald, you are their

New pet.

Oh, ok. Ha!

And I am dr. Gabriela, the

World'’s best animal doctor.

How may I help you?

Ooh, doctor, doctor, our new

Pet horse isn'’t eating. What's

Wrong with him?

Oh. Uh...neigh neigh.

We give him yummy foods like

Pizza and ice cream,

But now his tummy hurts.

Neigh neigh. Pbbb.

I know the problem. Horses

Shouldn'’t eat foods like that.

Horses should be eating carrots

And hay.

Neigh neigh!

Ha ha! Wow, dr. Gabriela,

You'’re amazing.

Yeah. You'’re amazing.

Neigh neigh.

Yay!

Ha ha ha!

Oh, doctor, doctor, we'’re

Back. Our gorilla won'’t take a

Nap in the sleeping bag we gave

Him. Yeah. He won'’t go to sleep

At all. He just stays up and

Keeps us awake all night long.

Yeah.

Oo oo ah ah ah!

Oo oo oo ah! Oo oo oo oo!

Ah ah ah ah ah!

See?

I know the problem. Gorillas

Can'’t sleep in a small sleeping

Bag. They like to play and sleep

In nature under a nice, shady

Tree, right, gorilla?

Uh, where'’d he--

Hey, where'’s your gorilla?

I don'’t know.

Oo ah! Oh oh! Ah oh oh oh ah!

Ha ha! I am gerald the amazing

Talking gorilla doctor.

The doctor is in.

Aw, gerald.

Whoa! Oh, no! Ha ha!

And now--buck!

It'’s time--neigh!

For susie--meow!

To sing--woof! Woof!

Go, susie!

Thank you. Wow, look at all

These pets, and what do you all

Need?

Food.

Water.

Shelter.

And air.

Hey, you know what? Now that

I know how to take care of a

Pet, I can'’t wait to take care

Of philbert this weekend.

Oh, I know you'’ll do a great

Job with philbert, sid.

Thanks.

Ok, my scientists. Say

Good-bye to your new class pet

Because it'’s time to go home.

Ok. Bye, manny.

Bye, manny.

So long, manny.

Bye-bye, manny.

Now, where'’s my sid?

Oh, right here, grandma.

Oh! Ha ha ha!

Ha ha! Hi, grandma.

Hello.

Look who'’s here to see you.

Philbert! Hey, buddy. Ha ha!

I figured, since I was

Bringing philbert over today, we

Could walk home.

That sounds great, grandma.

[Howls]

Okey dokey. Here'’s the leash.

You'’re in charge now, sid.

Let'’s stroll.

Yeah. Let'’s stroll. Ha ha ha!

Look at that. Philbert is so

Excited to see you.

Oh, yeah. I'’m excited to see

You, too, philbert. We'’re gonna

Have so much fun, and I'’ll make

Sure you have everything you

Need.

Sid, you'’re just like me.

I'’ve always loved pets, all

Kinds of pets. When I was a

Girl, I worked on my

Grandfather'’s farm. I used to

Take care of chickens, pigs,

Cows. You name it, I took care

Of it. Then one day, I was ready

To take care of my very own

Animal, and guess what. I got a

Pony. Ha ha ha! I used to ride

My pony and play with it and

Brush it, but it was also a big

Responsibility. Since it was

My pony, I had to feed it, clean

It, keep its stable clean, and,

Worst of all, clean up after it.

Hoo hoo hoo! Stinky. I didn'’t

Mind, though, because I loved my

Pony and wanted to take care of

It, but, boy, it was a lot of

Work.

Ha ha! Wow, grandma, you took

Care of a pony.

You betcha.

And, philbert, now I'’m gonna

Take care of you.

[Barks]

Well, sid, you could start

Taking care of philbert right

Now. It'’s time to take him for

A walk.

Walk? But we just walked

Home.

This? Oh, this was nothing.

Philbert needs to go for a run.

Oh. Ok. Well, I'’m ready for

My responsibility. Um, philbert,

I'’m gonna go put my stuff away

And say hi to my dad, and then

We can go for a run.

[Barks]

Yay!

I'’ll hold on to philbert

For you.

Thanks, grandma.

I'’ll be right back.

Okey dokey.

♪ I learned something cool

Something cool today

I know it upside down

And inside out

I learned all about... ♪

[Howls]

♪ Taking care of animals

Ha ha!

Scientist in the house.

Yeah.

[Applause]

Whoo hoo! Now, that was a

Good run. Ha ha!

Yeah. Sure was.

Oh, sid, look. I think

Philbert is thirsty.

Yeah?

Mm-hmm.

Ha ha ha! I bet he is because

That was a really long run.

Sure was.

Ok, philbert. Time for some

Water, boy.

Yep. Ha ha ha!

Here it comes, boy.

Uh! There.

Oh, and don'’t forget his

Food.

Huh?

Yep.

Ok. Food coming right up.

Uh...

There you go.

There we go. Ooh, that was a

Lot of work. At least he'’s done

For the weekend. Good thing

Because I am tired.

Done for the weekend?

Yeah.

Sorry, kiddo, but I walk and

Feed philbert a few times every

Day.

Every day?

Mm-hmm.

[Sighs]

You know, maybe mom and dad are

Right. Maybe I'’m not really

Ready for my own puppy yet.

Mm-hmm.

That'’s a really big

Responsibility.

Oh, yes.

Hmm, but you know what,

Philbert? I love you,

So it'’s all worth it.

[Barks]

Oh...

I think philbert wants to

Play.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah. Now, that'’s something I

Can do. Come on, philbert.

Let'’s go play.

Whoo hoo! Oh, sid, I just

Know you'’re gonna do a great job

With philbert this weekend.

He loves you.

Come here, boy. Time to play.

Whoo! Yeah. Oh, and I love

Philbert. Ha ha! Ok. Come on,

Philbert. Come on, boy. Ha ha!

Right in here. Ha ha! Come on.

Just a little further. Here you

Go, philbert. Ha ha! A nice,

Comfy bed just for you.

Ha ha ha! Ah, what a day.

You know, I'’ve only been taking

Care of philbert for one day.

I'’m already so tired. Ha ha!

If only there were a way I could

Get some help taking care of

Philbert. Hmm. Ok. I'’ve got it.

Here'’s my super-dooper-ooper-

Schmooper big idea.

[Barks]

Ha ha! I'’m going to invent

The power pet center. It helps

You take care of your pet, even

While you'’re away. All your pet

Has to do is tell the power pet

Center what it wants. Say rocky

The dog is thirsty.

"Ruff ruff ruff ruff."

[Pants]

[Slurp]

"One bowl of water coming

Up." Vrrp! Pshhk!

Or maybe trixie the cat needs

Some food.

"Meow meow meow."

"Here you go, kitty.

Have some food." Brr! Kwak!

Hey, here comes philbert.

Looks like it'’s time for his

Walk, but I'’m at school.

No problem for the power pet

Center.

"Woof woof woof!"

[Pants]

"Woof!"

The power pet center can get

Your pet anything it needs any

Time of day. Yay! And that'’s my

Super-dooper-ooper-schmooper

Big idea. Yay!

[Applause]

Ha ha! So, philbert, how do you

Like your new bed?

[Barks]

Ha ha! Great. Ok, philbert.

You have everything you need.

[Barks]

I am sid the responsible

Science kid.

[Howls]

Remember, keep asking lots

And lots of questions. See you

Later, scientists. Ha ha!

Ok, philbert.

Ready for a bedtime story?

[Pants]

Great. Ok. Once upon a time,

There was a flying dog named

Philbert. Be sure to check out
