- (Peg): Today at
Peg's Pizza Place,
you can sense the excitement.

- (all): We're excited!

- The customers
can hardly wait

to taste the new item
on today's menu

for the first time ever:

honey cake!
- Whoa-ho-ho!

- I'm Peg, this is Cat.

- ♪ And we're about to make ♪

- ♪ Some honey cake ♪

(Ding!)
- Cake ready!

- The cake is moist...

(Ramone gives a sniff.)
...and fresh!

- But it isn't honey cake until
it's totally covered with...

- Gooey...
- Oooey...
- Honey!

- So why don't you guys
take this plastic bucket

out back and have the bees
fill it out with some of
their fresh honey.

- Can I carry the bucket?
- Go for it, Cat!

♪ It will be so yummy
- That's no mistake ♪

- ♪ When we get some honey
for a honey cake ♪

(bees buzzing a song)
- Fill her up please, bees.

Those three are so good
at what they do.

- I know!
- You sure you can handle that?

- Ho! Ho! Yeah!
(Cat groaning with effort)

I mean, oh no!
- It's OK, Cat,

you thought you could
carry the bucket

because when it's empty,
it's really light, right?

- Really light.

- But when it's filled
with honey, it's heavy.

- Ah... who knew?

- Without a drop of honey
for our honey cake...

(gasp)
we've got a BIG PROBLEM!

But don't worry, Cat,

maybe we can get the bees
to fill it up again

since you speak bee.

- Oh, right!
- Buzz, buzz, buzz-buzz?
- Bizz, bizz, bizz!

- They love that stuff.

- It's full, so it's heavy.

- Oh, yeah!
- I'm bigger than you,

so why don't I carry
the heavy bucket,

and you carry the tune?

- We got the honey, so...

- You guys did a great job

getting this honey,
but we need more.

- But we got enough

- Enough for one cake.
(Ding!)

- Oooh!
- Second cake ready!

- Why do we need another cake?
- 'Cause word got around

that we're serving honey cake.

So take this wooden bucket
and fill it up.

(Peg grunting with effort)
- This bucket is heavier

than the plastic one.
I need two hands to hold it

when it's totally empty.

Running a restaurant
is really good exercise.

- Buzz, bizzus?

- Bizz-bizz, buzz-buzz, zzz-zzz!

- They want the dance again.
- Bizzzz!

Ramone, you invented
a machine that lifts buckets.

- The Honey Hauler will pour
the honey on the cake

and bring in this last
metal bucket when it's full.

(Peg grunts with effort.)
- This bucket's so heavy,

I can barely lift it
when it's empty!

- Have the bees fill it up,
and the Honey Hauler
will reel it in.

- Coooool!
- Nice!

To bring in the bucket,

I'll press this button.

- Shoo!

- Nooo!
- Put down those buckets,

you out of control contraption!

It didn't spill a drop
of precious honey.

- It's OK, we can haul
all three buckets in together.

- Now, stay away from that fly!

- As far as I can!
- When I press this button...

(Ding!)

Honey cake! honey cake!

chirp-chirp cluck-cluck ♪♪

- At least, that crazy dance
is keeping their mind off the--

- (customers): Honey cake!
Honey cake!

- Or not.

- The Honey Hauler's
still working,

but the arms aren't steady.

The clamps won't attach
to anything by themselves.

- Cat and I can
attach the clamps

to the buckets by hand!
Right, Cat?

- Uh... OK.

- Make sure the big clamp
goes on the heaviest bucket.

- 'Cause the big clamp
is strongest, right?

And you need something strong
to lift something really
heavy or it will spill!

- As I know
from personal experience.

- The medium-size clamp goes on
the next heaviest bucket.

And the small clamp
goes on the least heavy bucket.

- It's honey time!

This is the big clamp, right?

- Definitely!

- It goes on the heaviest
bucket, right?

- Definitely!
- Do you remember

which bucket's heaviest?
- Definitely not!

- Metal? Wood? Plastic?
- No idea!

- But if I put this clamp
on the wrong bucket,

the honey will spill,
the customers won't get

their honey cake,
and our restaurant will be

the unhappiest place on Earth!

I AM TOTALLY FREAKING OUT!

Cat's right, I should count
backwards from five
to calm down.

(Cat grunting with effort)
Five, four,

three, two,

one!

That's it, you amazing genius!

- Huh?
- You can tell if something

is really heavy
by trying to lift it.

This plastic bucket's
hard for me to lift.

It's heavy, but I can lift it.
- Heavy!

- I can barely lift
this wooden bucket

with both arms. It's heavier
than the plastic one.

- Heavier!
- This metal bucket,

I can't even lift a little.
It's the heaviest of all!

- Heaviest!

- So, the big clamp
goes on the metal bucket.

The medium-size clamp
goes on the wooden bucket.

- Can I do this one?
- Sure!

- You spilled once, bucket,

never again.

- The heaviest bucket
is shaking!

- I can't look!

- We got it right!
The honey is up!

- It's a "gootiful" sight.

- So because we know heavy,
heavier and heaviest,

and patterns, we could get
all the honey we need.

- That is sweet!

- And so...

- ♪ Problem solved
- The problem is solved ♪

- ♪ We solved the problem ♪

- I'm Peg and this is Cat!

We have come
to the South Pole to make

the coolest snowman ever.
- He has a head!

- And to see
the Animal Winter Olympics

where the greatest animal
athletes from around the world

are going to compete
in a ski race.

Oooh! They're doing
their warm-up workouts now.

- Polar bears, polar bears!

- Walruses, walruses!
- Squirrels, squirrels!

- He needs... arms.

- Sorry.
- Oops!

- My bad.
- Please accept our apologies.

- "Snow" problem!
Ha-ha! Ha-ha-ha!

- So, are you penguins here

to compete
in the Winter Olympics?

- Yeah.
- Uh-huh.
- Word.

- Most certainly, but alas we
have this one little problem,

you see? We seem
to keep crashing into things.

- You'll get it together in time
for the big race, I'm sure.

- Oh, that's very kind
of you to say.

Would you like
to join us for practice?

(Peg gasps.)
- Totally!

- (talking one after the other):
One! Two! Three! Four!

- ♪ We're the penguins,
wa♪

- Apologies once again,
my good Cat.

- "Snow" problem! Ha! Ha! Ha!

- You see what I mean
about our little problem

crashing into things?
- Call me crazy...

- You're crazy.
- ...but I've got a good
feeling about you guys.

You just need someone
to help you work on your skills,

somebody tough, somebody bold,

somebody who knows how to

totally mold you into champions!

I'm Peg
and I'd like to be your coach.

- Yes!
- Definitely!
- That would be a splendid idea.

- You'll have to work hard.
Listen up and do exactly

what I say.
- Can do.

- Not a problem.
- Assistant coach Cat?

- Huh?
- Grab those hurdles and flags,

and set them up on the slope.

OK, Team Penguin, this is
what I need you to do.

Hop over the first hurdle,

duck under the second one,

and then ski in-between
the two flags.

Do you got me?
- Well...
- Actually...

- I said, "Do you got me?"
- Most certainly.

By the way,
you're a very good coach.

- I'm good at putting out
the tough love, right?

Ready? Go!

Go over!

No! Under!

- Oh!
- Nooo!

Between!
- Oof!

- What happened?
- Well, as it turns out,

we don't know what over, under,
and between mean?

- No.
- No idea.

- You penguins don't have
a chance in this race

if you don't know over,

under, and in-between.

We've got a BIG PROBLEM!

In the Olympic skiing course,
you're going to have to go

over, under, and between
all those obstacles

at top speed,

competing with the greatest
animal skiers in the...

What is it, assistant coach Cat?
Yes! If the penguins

follow those arrows you made,

they'll learn how to go over,
under, and between.

Great work, assistant coach Cat.
- I like assisting!

- Can you follow arrows,
Team Penguin?

- I think so.
- Maybe.
- Marvelous plan!

- So, let's try it again!
Go! Now, go up

and over!
- (penguins): Over!

- (Peg): This time,
go down under!

- (penguins): Under!
- (Peg): Now go between

those two flags!
- (penguins): Between!

- They did it!
- Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!

- And so...

♪ Problem solved,
the problem is solved ♪

♪ We solved the
problem, prob-- ♪
- (penguins): Aaaah!

- Cat, are the penguins
skiing totally out of control

at top speed
away from the stadium?

- (penguins): Aaaah!
- Yah.

- We've got
a REALLY BIG PROBLEM!

We've got to stop them!
Hold on tight!

Skiing is so cool, right?

- YAAAAA!

- Is that, "Yaaa, I'm scared"

or "Yaaa, this is the coolest
thing I've ever done

in my entire life"?
- Yes! Yesss!

- STOP!
- We can't stop.

- We're going way too fast.
- Watch out!

(screams)

They made it through!

- And made some cool shapes.

- (penguins): Noooo!

- What do we do?

(penguins screaming)

- Or not!

- Ah!
- Land.
- Phew!

- Uh, boys, we're not
actually on land.

We seem to be
on a piece of ice

in the middle of the water...

that's tilting,

and being observed

by a very hungry monster!

- Ah-ah.
- (penguins): HELP!

- Uh-oh!
- That's Big Mouth,

he likes to nibble on things
that are little and yellow.

Your yellow ski gear
caught his eyes!

To him, it looks like
you're candy!

- Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
- (penguins): Aaaaaah!

- Ah!
- (penguins): Aaaaah!

- Hey, Peg!
- Oh! Hey, Ramone!

What brings you
to the South Pole?

- I'm the announcer
at the Animal Olympics.

- I'm coaching this team
of penguins.

- (penguins): HELP!

- That's a really interesting
training exercise

you have them doing there.
Is that to help them balance?

- Balance! Yes,
it's to help them balance.

I'm showing them
how to balance.

Uh, what does balance
mean again?

- Balance means to get
the weight even on both sides

of something,
so it doesn't tilt,

like with my snowboard.

If I put my weight
on one side of the board,

it tilts one way.

If I put my weight
on the other side,

it tilts the other way.

If I put one foot
on each side like this,

it balances perfectly,
and it doesn't tilt at all!

- Thanks for that timely
explanation, Ramone.

- I do what I can.
- (penguins): Help!

- Penguins! To keep
the ice from tilting,

your team needs to be balanced.

You can't all be
on the same side!

- So I'll move
to the other side.

- Hmm... you're still
not totally balanced!

- (penguins in center):
So what do we do?

- Well, since all four of you
are about the same size,

to be balanced,
you need two on each side.

So one more of you
should move over.

- I'm going for it.

- Good show! We're balanced!

- They're not gonna
fall in now, Big Mouth.

- (disappointed): Ohhh...
- No candy here.

(crowd cheering in the distance)
- (penguins): All right!
- Not all right!

- (Ramone): Welcome,
ladies and gentlemen...

- The Olympics are starting,
and you're stuck on the ice!

- (Ramone): ...to this years'...
- Come to pull us in?

- We can't reach you!
- ...Animal Winter Olympics!

- And we can't reach you.

- (Ramone): Let the games begin!

- So you're gonna totally
miss the Olympics,

and some other animal ski team
is gonna win the gold medal!

I AM TOTALLY FREAKING OUT!

Cat's right,
I should count backwards

from five to calm down.

Five, four,

three, two,

one!

That's it! You did it again,

you amazing assistant coach Cat!

- Huh?
- We can use my skis

to make a bridge
the penguins can cross.

It reaches
all the way across!

- Our coaches have built us
a bridge!

- (penguins): Hurray!

- So now we go--
- Around it?

- Under it?
- Between the two skis?

- Just walk across
the bridge, now!

- (penguins): We made it!

(cheering in the distance)

- All right, Team Penguin,
let's get

to the stadium fast!
We've got a race to win!

- (penguins): Penguins!

- One of our teams
isn't here yet.

But we'll have to start
without them.

Skiers, line up!

On your marks...

get set... go!

And they're off!

The bears are in the lead.
- Polar bears, polar...

(yelling)
...bears?

- They're all tangled up.
They forgot to jump over
the first hurdle!

Here come the walruses!
- Walruses, walruses!

- (Ramone): They made it over
the first hurdle and passed
the polar bears.

- Walrus...
(yelling)

- But they didn't duck
under the second hurdle,

and they're even more tangled up
than the bears.

It's all up
to the squirrels now.

- Squirrels!

- (Ramone): They passed over
the bears...

and under the walruses!

- Squirrels, squirrels,

squirrels!
- But instead of going

between the flags,
they crashed into them.

No one can finish the course!
Wait! Could it be?

- One.
- Two.

- Three.
- Four.
