-GLASS SHATTERS

0:01:020:01:06

Mr Hainey is posting a list telling us which teacher we'll get.

0:01:110:01:16

-Uh-oh.

-Oh! Forgot a tack.

0:01:190:01:21

ALL: Huh?!

0:01:210:01:23

-ALL: Ohhh.

-There are three teachers.

0:01:230:01:26

'Mrs Sweetwater, she's nice.'

0:01:260:01:28

Thank you!

0:01:280:01:30

'Mrs Fink, she's fun.'

0:01:300:01:32

THE KIDS CHEER

0:01:320:01:34

Billy, name THREE oceans.

0:01:350:01:38

'And Mr Ratburn, the toughest, scariest teacher in school.'

0:01:380:01:42

No, in the whole world. No, in the whole HISTORY of the world!

0:01:420:01:47

Oh, here comes the list!

0:01:470:01:50

THEY MUTTER NERVOUSLY

0:01:500:01:52

Go and look.

0:01:520:01:54

ARTHUR GIGGLES

0:02:060:02:08

THEY CONTINUE SCREAMING

0:02:080:02:11

Maybe you read the list wrong, Francine.

0:02:120:02:16

THEY ALL BREATHE IN

0:02:160:02:18

You're right.

0:02:180:02:20

It's Ratburn.

0:02:200:02:22

Ratburn, Ratburn,

0:02:220:02:25

Ratburn...

0:02:470:02:49

Free samples of a new flavour, Rocky Road! All you can eat!

0:02:490:02:54

Maybe he's not as rigorous as they say.

0:02:540:02:58

Prunella had him last year.

0:02:580:03:00

SHE LAUGHS Is the rat BAD?

0:03:000:03:03

Does a bull fight(?)

0:03:030:03:05

-Answer a question wrong and he'll send you to Death Row.

-Death Row?!

0:03:050:03:11

DOOMY MUSIC PLAYS

0:03:110:03:13

-Have you done your math exercises?!

-I did the first 5,000, sir!

0:03:170:03:22

Then you have 9,995,000 left!

0:03:220:03:25

Get to work!

0:03:250:03:27

And after that,

0:03:270:03:29

you have 37 million spelling words to memorise!

0:03:290:03:34

And you spiders, get moving!

Well, good lu-uck!

0:03:590:04:01

ALL: Ohhh!

0:04:010:04:03

Oh, he's coming. Oh, no...

0:04:030:04:05

ARTHUR GASPS THE DOOR CREAKS

0:04:070:04:10

Good morning, everyone. STUDENT GULPS

0:04:110:04:14

Welcome to grade three. My name is Mr Ratburn.

0:04:140:04:18

-(He doesn't look so bad.)

-(It's probably a trick.)

0:04:180:04:22

Let's start with a short math quiz to see what you remember.

0:04:220:04:26

(I told you.)

0:04:260:04:28

Yeah, this is great!

0:04:310:04:34

I love this! THE KIDS LAUGH

0:04:340:04:38

# Welcome to the first day of school School is cool...

0:04:400:04:43

RATBURN: Arthur Read?

0:04:450:04:47

You'd better concentrate on those problems before time's up.

0:04:470:04:52

SCHOOL BELL

0:04:560:04:58

THEY LAUGH AND SHOUT

0:04:580:05:00

Class, you may file out in an orderly fashion.

0:05:050:05:08

Quietly. No talking.

0:05:080:05:11

Arthur Read, are you standing in your alphabetical position?

0:05:110:05:16

Ratburn gave us homework on the first day!

0:05:210:05:24

We're not dealing with a human being here. This is serious.

0:05:240:05:29

A BALL CRACKS THEY BOTH GASP

0:05:290:05:31

BOTH: Whooooaaah!

0:05:310:05:34

-You find it yet?

-Hello. This is Mr Ratburn. >

0:05:340:05:38

-(Shhhh!)

-(Uh-oh.)

0:05:380:05:40

I have all the eyes I need but I'm completely out of heads. >

0:05:400:05:45

I can wait for girls' heads but I need boys' heads immediately.

0:05:450:05:49

THEY GASP (Wait. He'll see us, and we have...boys' heads!)

0:05:490:05:54

There's no time. I need them now.

0:05:540:05:57

Then I'll have to get them myself.

0:05:570:06:00

THEY SCREAM

0:06:000:06:03

THEY SCREAM

0:06:040:06:06

THEY GASP

0:06:060:06:08

-What are you doing?

-THEY SCREAM

0:06:110:06:14

Ratburn! He's looking for body parts. Heads! BOYS' heads.

0:06:140:06:19

-A vampire doesn't need heads.

-This is no ordinary vampire.

0:06:190:06:25

He's beyond vampire.

0:06:250:06:27

What's beyond a vampire?

0:06:270:06:29

A Ratburn!

0:06:290:06:31

DOOMY MUSIC PLAYS

0:06:310:06:34

-THE BOYS SCREAM

-Hey! What...

-Stand still. He wants boy heads, not girls'.

0:06:340:06:40

Breakfast!

0:06:450:06:46

What do you think he's gonna do with that saw?

0:06:490:06:53

I read a book where kids discovered a mystery

0:06:530:06:57

and became detectives to solve it.

0:06:570:06:59

THEY SCREAM We should probably investigate.

0:06:590:07:03

-We have a lot of homework to do.

-You're just a 'fraidy-cat.

0:07:050:07:09

We have to choose. Face horrifying, scary danger or do our homework.

0:07:090:07:15

BOTH: Horrifying, scary danger!

0:07:150:07:17

Hmm.

0:07:240:07:25

THE CROWD CHEERS

0:07:470:07:49

RATBURN BLOWS WHISTLE

0:07:570:07:59

I'm bored. You probably heard him talking about heads of lettuce.

0:07:590:08:05

BOY heads of lettuce? I don't think so.

0:08:050:08:09

It probably means the rotten ones. I'm gonna do my homework.

0:08:090:08:14

Arthur, look!

0:08:150:08:17

THEY GASP

0:08:180:08:21

BOTH: Ohhhh!

0:08:220:08:24

WRISTWATCH BLEEPS

0:08:250:08:27

-M-Maybe we sh-should go do our homework.

-Come on!

0:08:300:08:34

He went to the carnival.

0:08:360:08:38

-Of course he did. Look at all those boy heads.

-We've got to warn them.

0:08:380:08:43

Oh, no! He's got us! We're trapped!

0:08:480:08:51

There he goes! Come on!

0:08:560:08:58

He went into that booth.

0:09:010:09:04

THE BOYS SCREAM

0:09:040:09:06

OK...it was that one.

0:09:060:09:09

It's authentic, Mrs MacGrady, but I'd prefer a REAL action pose.

0:09:110:09:15

-THE HORSE WHINNIES Ohhhh!

-Sorry, sir!

0:09:150:09:19

-OK,

-I

-pick this time.

0:09:240:09:26

THEY GASP

0:09:280:09:30

BOTH: One...two...

0:09:300:09:32

three...GO!

0:09:320:09:34

THEY LAUGH

0:09:360:09:39

-Run away!

-You're not safe! He'll get you!

0:09:400:09:43

THEY LAUGH

0:09:430:09:46

BOTH: Huh? Hey! You're not in this story!

0:09:480:09:51

-I

-warn Jack to run away, but not till he hears "Fe, fi, f..."

0:09:510:09:57

Oh, you know the drill!

0:09:570:09:59

THEY LAUGH

0:09:590:10:01

(Arthur! Buster!)

0:10:030:10:05

(Get off the stage!)

0:10:050:10:08

Fellas, when you leave that castle,

0:10:090:10:12

make a left down that beanstalk and you'll be back in Elwood City.

0:10:120:10:17

THE AUDIENCE LAUGHS

0:10:170:10:19

Wow! The Rat does kids' puppet shows?

0:10:220:10:26

Jack, you'd forget your head if it wasn't attached.

0:10:260:10:30

Uh-uh! Would not! THE AUDIENCE LAUGHS

0:10:300:10:34

Grab your head and hide! Here comes the Giant! THE AUDIENCE SCREAMS

0:10:340:10:39

Arthur! Look!

0:10:390:10:41

Fe, fi, fo, fum! AUDIENCE: Ewwww!

0:10:410:10:46

They always crack. I go through 50 boy heads a year.

0:10:460:10:50

BOTH: Boy heads!

0:10:500:10:52

-I can never have enough.

-We didn't know you made puppets.

0:10:520:10:57

Can't talk, boys. I have...40 seconds to get Jack ready.

0:10:570:11:01

I must stay on schedule because of all I do.

0:11:010:11:04

You do a LOT. You're a teacher, a coach, you work on the school paper.

0:11:040:11:09

I can't find time to do my homework and eat!

0:11:090:11:13

Organise your time. Some people think I give a lot of homework.

0:11:130:11:17

BOTH: We never heard that.

0:11:170:11:19

If you learn good work habits, you'll discover...

0:11:190:11:23

Jack! Where are you?!

0:11:230:11:25

Just a second! The cat rolled my head into the litter box!

0:11:250:11:29

You can do more than you think. I'll teach you to find time for things you enjoy.

0:11:290:11:35

Like how you do all that stuff, plus puppets?

0:11:350:11:39

Exactly. Ah! Two seconds early.

0:11:390:11:42

Self-discipline is as important to learn as 2 + 2.

0:11:420:11:46

I got my head on straight! THE AUDIENCE LAUGHS

0:11:460:11:49

Hey, man! Your head's on straight but your body is backwards!

0:11:490:11:54

-Please don't stand there. I have to concentrate on my work.

-Oh! Sorry!

0:11:540:12:00

Boy, were we wrong!

0:12:010:12:03

By the way, I can't WAIT to see your geography projects tomorrow.

0:12:030:12:08

THEY SCREAM

0:12:080:12:10

Do you think everybody gets nervous before they do something important to them?

0:12:160:12:22

-Benjamin, do you think you should do this?

-I have to.

0:12:260:12:30

Ouch! Ouch! I did it!

0:12:300:12:33

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

0:12:330:12:36

Heyyy! Ouch!

0:12:360:12:38

This is no lightning storm, so I shouldn't be afraid either, right?

0:12:390:12:45

Next, Arthur Read. APPLAUSE

0:12:450:12:48

Yay! Yahoo! Yeah, yeah, yeah!

0:12:490:12:52

ALL: Good morning, Mr Hainey. Everybody ready for the Spellathon?

0:13:000:13:06

Well, the third grade has the best spellers.

0:13:060:13:09

Not now I'm in the fourth grade.

0:13:090:13:12

I won last year with "endurance". Can you spell "endurance", Arthur?

0:13:120:13:17

-I...N...

-FRANCINE GIGGLES

0:13:180:13:21

-Forget it.

-It's a good thing the third grade isn't depending on ME.

0:13:210:13:26

Quiet, please. Get your homework out.

0:13:270:13:30

People, on Friday we will have a spelling test.

0:13:300:13:35

< A spell-off in Spellathon style.

0:13:350:13:37

Study hard because the winners get a special surprise.

0:13:370:13:41

-What do you think it is?

-Maybe the winner gets less homework.

0:13:420:13:47

If it means less homework, I want to win. I'm going to study extra-hard.

0:13:470:13:52

Me, too.

0:13:520:13:54

Oh! I knew I forgot something. There. Now I can really concentrate.

0:13:550:14:00

A-N-T-I-D... Er...

0:14:020:14:05

What word are you struggling with?

0:14:050:14:08

Antidisestablishmentarianism.

0:14:080:14:10

I can't remember if it has five I's or six.

0:14:100:14:14

Maybe you should skip to "antidote".

0:14:140:14:17

Dog.

D-O-G.

0:14:190:14:22

Muffy...you're...a...genius.

0:14:220:14:25

0:14:250:14:27

Hey! That's it!

0:14:290:14:32

This oughta do it.

0:14:340:14:37

0:14:370:14:40

0:15:030:15:08

Oh! I thought you had ants in your pants.

0:15:080:15:12

Oh, hi, Buster! Done studying?

0:15:260:15:29

Don't have to. I have this.

0:15:290:15:32

My good luck C-H-A-R-M - charm. Wanna go to the arcade?

0:15:320:15:37

-I should probably study some more.

-Is one more hour really gonna help?

0:15:370:15:43

Maybe you're right. It doesn't feel like I'm getting any better at it.

0:15:430:15:48

Some people are born spellers. You're more the..."go have fun" type.

0:15:480:15:53

-They've got the jet game that flips you upside down.

-OK.

0:15:530:15:58

-You ready for the test?

-The test!

0:16:000:16:03

I woke up early to squeeze in more study time.

0:16:030:16:07

I know this whole book, even the publisher's address.

0:16:070:16:11

We went to the arcade and I forgot to finish studying.

0:16:130:16:17

OK, everyone. Line up for the spelling bee.

0:16:180:16:22

That is incorrect. You may sit down.

0:16:220:16:24

Jenna, please spell "essential".

0:16:240:16:27

'What am I gonna do, what am I gonna do?!

0:16:270:16:31

'Maybe if I lean against the heater I'll get a temperature.'

0:16:310:16:36

Arthur, perhaps you can be the first not to get knocked out by this.

Pleasant -

0:16:510:16:53

P-L-E-A-S-E-N-T.

0:16:530:16:57

-No, I'm sorry.

-What kind of stupid word is that? Pleasant!

0:16:570:17:03

Arthur and the Brain are our winners.

0:17:030:17:06

And the surprise is to represent our class in the All-school Spellathon.

0:17:140:17:16

Mr Ratburn, I don't think I should be in the Spellathon.

0:17:170:17:21

You earned the honour, Arthur.

0:17:210:17:24

Yeah, but the thing is, I don't know how to spell anything.

0:17:240:17:28

A-N-T-I-N-G. See? I just knew that one word.

0:17:280:17:33

-Did you study?

-Sort of.

0:17:330:17:36

N-No. Not really.

0:17:360:17:38

It will take some study,

0:17:380:17:40

but if you really work at it, I know you can do well.

0:17:400:17:44

You do?

0:17:440:17:46

And Mr Ratburn thinks I can do it.

0:17:460:17:49

I have a lot do. I have 100 words to learn.

0:17:490:17:53

That's only 92 more than you know now.

0:17:530:17:57

DW!

0:17:570:17:59

We'll help any way we can, Arthur.
