0:00:13 > 0:00:18# What a wonderful kind of day We can learn to work and play
0:00:18 > 0:00:21# And get along with each other
0:00:21 > 0:00:24# You gotta listen to your heart Listen to the beat

0:00:27 > 0:00:33# Get together and make things better By working together

0:00:58 > 0:01:03- Hey, DW!- Hey...
0:01:03 > 0:01:04Oh...
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- (Come with me.)- Why?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Sh! It's about our lost brother.
0:01:25 > 0:01:31- We don't HAVE a brother.- They're keeping him a secret. I've SEEN him.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34Uh-oh - great(!)
0:01:35 > 0:01:38Don't turn on...
0:01:38 > 0:01:40the light.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45See?
0:01:45 > 0:01:49I wonder where he went. Mom and Dad sold him or something.
0:01:49 > 0:01:54- DW, that's ME.- Is not.- Is too.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58- YOU wear glasses. - That's before I wore glasses.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01You were born with glasses.
0:02:01 > 0:02:06You were only two years old then, so you probably don't remember...
0:02:17 > 0:02:21This quiz is to be completed in class. No talking!
0:02:21 > 0:02:26- (That's a 7, right?) - (No, it's a 2.)
0:02:26 > 0:02:30- That's a 1?- No, it's a 7.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33THAT'S a 7.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37No, Arthur, it's a 9. Stop bothering me!
0:02:37 > 0:02:38Ahem!
0:02:39 > 0:02:42These are your test results.
0:02:42 > 0:02:47Anyone with four or more mistakes, see me later for extra homework.
0:02:50 > 0:02:55- I guess math's not your best subject!- I have a headache!
0:02:55 > 0:03:00- Sometimes Francine gives ME a headache, too.- Huh!
0:03:16 > 0:03:18- Arthur!- Got it!
0:03:18 > 0:03:20No, I don't.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32PEEP!
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Come on, Arthur, you can do it!
0:03:42 > 0:03:47- Aw!- Oh, Arthur!- I guess basketball's just not your sport(!)
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- Girl:- E...G...B...D.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56E, G ,B, D!
0:03:56 > 0:03:58E, G, B, D.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Um...
0:04:03 > 0:04:06M...P...
0:04:07 > 0:04:087...
0:04:10 > 0:04:12R...P...
0:04:12 > 0:04:16R...O...
0:04:16 > 0:04:19It's not a 7. 8?
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Huh?
0:04:21 > 0:04:24# Arthur's in trou-ble! #
0:04:24 > 0:04:27How do you get in trouble with the NURSE?
0:04:27 > 0:04:32- What happened? - I have to go to the eye doctor.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39- What can you see? - It's just blurry, Dr Iris.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44- NOW what do you see?- A giant worm!
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Where?!
0:04:50 > 0:04:52Hmm!
0:04:54 > 0:04:57- That better?- Yeah. I can read it all!
0:04:57 > 0:05:02You just need glasses. That's why you've been getting those headaches.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08You choose the frames you like.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Cool!
0:05:22 > 0:05:26- Those are nice. - Maybe I'll try something else.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Hey!
0:05:40 > 0:05:46- There! Those look wonderful, Arthur! - Very distinguished!
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Really?
0:05:49 > 0:05:55Look at that airplane way up there! Look at all the leaves on the trees!
0:05:55 > 0:06:01Mom, you have grey hairs! Dad, have you always had bags under your eyes?
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Wow! You look weird!
0:06:14 > 0:06:18- You look different. You get a new haircut?- NO!
0:06:25 > 0:06:30Hey, Buster, look - Arthur's a four-eyes!
0:06:30 > 0:06:36# Arthur's a four-eyes! Arthur's a four-eyes! # THEY LAUGH
0:06:36 > 0:06:41Some people need glasses to see, Francine. Big deal(!)
0:06:48 > 0:06:52- Hey, you guys, look - I'm Arthur! - THEY LAUGH
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Huh?
0:07:01 > 0:07:05- I know - it's a new shirt. - 'Fraid not.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16- Waaah!- Hmm?
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- Arthur?- Don't talk to me!
0:07:24 > 0:07:28Well, it's better than being called Four-Eyes.
0:07:28 > 0:07:33If I lose them, nobody can make me wear them.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36I won't even know where they land.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Good riddance!
0:08:08 > 0:08:10That's it, DW...
0:08:13 > 0:08:20- What are you doing with your glasses?- DW took them. I got them!
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Careful. Don't want them broken.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24No, Mom.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27- WHACK! - OW! Er, ha-ha.
0:08:36 > 0:08:42- Arthur, where are your glasses? - I lost them...at home, I think.
0:08:42 > 0:08:46- It's harder than ever to see without them.- Why not just wear 'em?
0:08:46 > 0:08:51Don't need 'em! I know this school like the back of my hand.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Boys' room - third door. Right?
0:08:54 > 0:08:57- Yeah.- See? Why do I need them?
0:08:57 > 0:09:00See you in class.
0:09:01 > 0:09:06Oh...! ..Well, the examination was better than I thought. Still...
0:09:06 > 0:09:09First door...
0:09:09 > 0:09:11second...
0:09:11 > 0:09:13third.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20I said, "I'm not playing...!"
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Francine?
0:09:23 > 0:09:28- What are YOU doing in here? - This is the girls' room! Get out!
0:09:31 > 0:09:35- EEEEK! - A BOY!- Get out!
0:09:35 > 0:09:37GIRLS YELL >
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Get me out of here!
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Oh, no!
0:10:00 > 0:10:05I'll just have to get used to being a four-eyed weirdo.
0:10:07 > 0:10:13'I'm Wilbur Rabbitt, and this is how we make the Bionic Bunny Show!
0:10:13 > 0:10:17- 'Cut!- Yeah, that's fine.'
0:10:20 > 0:10:26Wilbur Rabbitt wears glasses just like mine?! ALL RIGHT!
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- Old Four-Eyes is back.- Hi, Francine!
0:10:31 > 0:10:36- I know - you're wearing glasses! - Yeah, I am.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Four-Eyes!
0:10:43 > 0:10:50- Binky, did you know Wilbur Rabbitt wears glasses?- Yeah, I saw it on TV.
0:10:50 > 0:10:55- I didn't see that. - It's great how they make him fly!
0:10:58 > 0:11:03- Don't ask me to read you the questions. I need to concentrate!- OK.
0:11:03 > 0:11:07Look out, everyone, Arthur's got the ball!
0:11:17 > 0:11:20THE KIDS CHEER
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Very good, Arthur! All correct.
0:11:31 > 0:11:32Arthur...
0:11:32 > 0:11:38How would you like to be on MY basketball team today...? Like them?
0:11:39 > 0:11:43- There's no glass. - They're my movie-star glasses.
0:11:43 > 0:11:48Don't they make me look beautiful? Wilbur Rabbitt wears glasses, y'know.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51And his are just like mine.
0:11:52 > 0:11:58..And since then, I always wore glasses. That solve your mystery?
0:11:58 > 0:12:04I guess. But it's not as good as having a lost brother. Hey, look!
0:12:04 > 0:12:07Who's this weird guy with Mom?
0:12:07 > 0:12:11- That's Dad. - Dad doesn't have a beard, Arthur!
0:12:11 > 0:12:17Maybe Mom's divorced. I'm waking her up NOW and demanding an explanation!
0:12:18 > 0:12:21DW...! DW!
0:12:21 > 0:12:23DW!
0:12:31 > 0:12:36Quiet down. You may have heard... Buster, turn around, please.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39School pictures have been scheduled.
0:12:39 > 0:12:46- Now?! I can't have my picture taken in these rags!- Thursday afternoon.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50That should give you time to change clothes(!)
0:12:51 > 0:12:56There are a few things you have to remember about school pictures.
0:12:56 > 0:13:01Not a good idea to drink six cans of soda then have your picture taken...
0:13:01 > 0:13:03BUUUURP!
0:13:03 > 0:13:08..or rub your feet on the carpet and sit on a metal chair...
0:13:08 > 0:13:11or wear a flower if you're allergic.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14AAAAAAAAAAAACHOO!
0:13:24 > 0:13:29- One more out and we got 'em.- We'll never do it. They're fourth-graders.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31COME ON! >
0:13:31 > 0:13:38- The plan... No matter what, get the ball to Francine.- BREAK!
0:13:40 > 0:13:44- Go, Arthur! > - Go on!- You can do it!
0:14:08 > 0:14:10You're out!
0:14:10 > 0:14:12- Hooray!- Well done!- Yes!
0:14:12 > 0:14:17- I've to get a new dress for picture day.- I'll get new shoes AND a dress.
0:14:17 > 0:14:22We beat the fourth-graders! I tagged them and we won!
0:14:23 > 0:14:28So anyway, we should compare dresses to make sure we don't wear the same.
0:14:28 > 0:14:33- What are YOU wearing?- To what? School pictures.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Who cares?
0:14:35 > 0:14:40- Not YOU, obviously(!)- Francine could have the prettiest picture.- Me?
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Except for mine, of course.
0:14:47 > 0:14:52- Ow!- It'd take a lot of work, but you could be a whole new Francine.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56We could even look like twins... Maybe.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59- Really? Nah!- Leave it to me.
0:15:03 > 0:15:08- I TOLD you I didn't have any dresses.- What's that back there?
0:15:08 > 0:15:11Put it on.
0:15:11 > 0:15:16- I'll look stupid.- Do you want a nice school picture or not?
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Trust me.
0:15:18 > 0:15:23See? It's perfect... once you fix the little rip here.
0:15:23 > 0:15:28Just have your Mom run a needle over that. And now for your hair!
0:15:28 > 0:15:31- What's wrong with my hair?- Huh(!)
0:15:32 > 0:15:37- Close your eyes until I tell you to look.- But...- Do it!
0:15:40 > 0:15:43OK, you can look now.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50- ARGH!- I don't get it! It always works for ME.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53Get me out of this!
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Wait, I have an idea.
0:16:01 > 0:16:07- Hello, Flossie? This is Muffy.- Ooh! Muffy, my favourite little client!
0:16:07 > 0:16:12Can I bring a friend to my appointment? She needs a special!
0:16:12 > 0:16:16- You got it, kid! - That's great! Thank you!
0:16:16 > 0:16:22It's all set. Meet me tomorrow afternoon at the Salon De Beaute.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25The what?!
0:16:25 > 0:16:30- You didn't say it's a beauty parlour. - Did you think it was a pet shop(?)
0:16:30 > 0:16:32No way am I going in.
0:16:32 > 0:16:37I knew you'd chicken out. Luckily, I brought my secret weapon.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Remember this? Last year's picture.
0:16:41 > 0:16:47- Is THIS what you wanna look like? - OK, OK, you win!
0:16:47 > 0:16:52Ma fille! How positively brilliant to see you!
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Eduardo, look who's here!
0:16:55 > 0:16:58- Muffy!- How fabulous!
0:16:58 > 0:17:02- And what have we here?- ..Francine.
0:17:02 > 0:17:07Oh, that's right. Well, we don't promise miracles.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10Not in YOUR price range, anyway.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19This is our Queen Of The Nile look.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22VERY popular. No?
0:17:23 > 0:17:28Well, then, let's try for something more au courante!
0:17:28 > 0:17:34- Don't you have anything more normal? - If you insist... Oh, just the thing!
0:17:36 > 0:17:41I-I'll take that, I guess. Only, not too much hairspray.
0:17:41 > 0:17:46You got it, kid. ..One prom queen to go - extra curls, hold the sauce!
0:17:46 > 0:17:50FLOSSIE HUMS A TUNE
0:17:58 > 0:18:04Now, ma cherie, you will rest - and wake up as the girl of your dreams.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07DRYER SWITCHES ON
0:18:07 > 0:18:12Ladies and gentlemen, the moment you've waited for. Let's hear it...
0:18:12 > 0:18:14for Francine Frensky!
0:18:14 > 0:18:16APPLAUSE
0:18:16 > 0:18:20Francine sports a brand new hairdo - the crowd loves it!
0:18:20 > 0:18:25- Play ball!- Behind the plate, she prepares for the opening pitch.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28There's the pitch!
0:18:28 > 0:18:31Huh? OOF!
0:18:31 > 0:18:35- Eeooout! - What a dazzling play by Francine!
0:18:35 > 0:18:40The third inning. Francine runs to the outfield and returns the ball...
0:18:40 > 0:18:43to Arthur, who makes the catch!
0:18:43 > 0:18:49Final play of the game... Francine races to beat the ball, slides...
0:18:49 > 0:18:51and safe!
0:18:51 > 0:18:56Her hairdo touches the plate just in time. What a game!
0:18:56 > 0:18:59Francine. Francine?
0:19:01 > 0:19:04So - what do you think?
0:19:04 > 0:19:09- I knew it!- Oh, if only she had hair like YOURS.- It's great!
0:19:09 > 0:19:13Wait and see how it looks with your dress.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18There goes my new soccer ball.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Now...
0:19:20 > 0:19:25there are a few little things you should know about hair care.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29- WHAT are you doing?- Riding my bike.
0:19:29 > 0:19:34I don't think so! Bicycles and curls do NOT mix.
0:19:36 > 0:19:42See? I told you it was worth it. No swimming, no riding in convertibles,
0:19:42 > 0:19:46and wear protective headgear in the rain.
0:19:46 > 0:19:51- <- Honey? Arthur called. Tomorrow's kickball game - you bring the ball.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55Oh, I forgot. Absolutely NO kickball.
0:19:55 > 0:20:02- No way!- And no lying down!- I can't do this. There's too many rules.
0:20:02 > 0:20:07- Remember my secret weapon...? Well, then?- OK.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20- Like it?- No.- I wasn't asking YOU.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23- Well, it's...- ALIVE(!)
0:20:25 > 0:20:30Just pretend you don't see them. Boys ruin everything!
0:20:33 > 0:20:39Incoming! (..Was it an accident or does she look like that on purpose?)
0:20:39 > 0:20:44A combination of gravitational pull and stress on the hair follicles(!)
0:20:44 > 0:20:48- You're gonna get it! - Francine, calm down.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Aw! Now look what you did!
0:20:56 > 0:21:01- There, you can't see a thing. - Yes, you can. It's all over...- Ahem!
0:21:01 > 0:21:06Now, if you stay still until picture time, everything will be fine.
0:21:06 > 0:21:12- Can't play?!- You heard her. She can't mess up her hair.- Why?
0:21:12 > 0:21:17- I have to keep it nice for school pictures.- It's the fourth-graders!
0:21:17 > 0:21:21- They'll KILL us now. - Good! ..No slouching.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24Good posture is the key to beauty.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28- She's lost her mind. - And WE'LL lose the game.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Who needs her? We're just as good.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33Hey!
0:21:36 > 0:21:40Can I help you find the ball(?)
0:21:40 > 0:21:43- Come on, guys, get up!- Sit down!
0:21:44 > 0:21:46It's 1-0.
0:21:48 > 0:21:52- 2-0.- You have to get used to this, Francine.
0:21:52 > 0:21:56If you wanna look nice, no kickball.
0:21:56 > 0:22:02It's just a silly game. Why run in a circle and get your shoes dirty?
0:22:06 > 0:22:11- She caught it - and YOU'RE out. - She wasn't even playing!
0:22:11 > 0:22:17Know there's a poodle on your head? Yeah, and it does tricks! Watch!
0:22:24 > 0:22:25Safe!
0:22:29 > 0:22:33- How could you?! - I'm sick of being perfect.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37Besides, I like the way I used to look.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Next!
0:22:40 > 0:22:44Remember me? I'm the one who burped.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45Next!
0:22:49 > 0:22:55- Listen. Don't go in. You'll regret it forever.- You're making it worse.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Next!
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Next!
0:23:02 > 0:23:06Oh, that Francine!
0:23:06 > 0:23:11Like my father says, you get what you pay for.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14If I were YOU I'd burn those, and quick.
0:23:14 > 0:23:19I sort of LIKE them. See this smudge? I got it sliding into home!
0:23:19 > 0:23:24- Hey, want to trade?- Hers didn't come out. Technical difficulties.
0:23:24 > 0:23:29- I'll trade if you promise not to laugh.- I won't if you won't.- OK.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34- I like it. Looks just like you. - So does yours.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37I give up, Francine Frensky!
0:23:37 > 0:23:41I'm sorry to say you'll NEVER be like me.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44- Kickball?- You bet!
