# And get along with each other

0:00:180:00:20

# You gotta listen to your heart Listen to the beat

0:00:200:00:24

# Listen to the rhythm of the street Open your eyes! Open your ears!

0:00:240:00:30

# Get together, make things better By working together

0:00:300:00:34

# It's a simple message And it comes from the heart

0:00:340:00:38

# Believe in yourself For that's the place to start

0:00:380:00:43

-# And I say, hey!

-Hey!

-What a wonderful kind of day

0:00:430:00:48

# We can learn to work and play And get along with each other

0:00:480:00:53

# What a wonderful kind of day, hey! What a wonderful kind of day, HEY! #

0:00:530:00:59

DW!

0:00:590:01:00

-Hey!

-Whoa! Ooh!

0:01:020:01:05

Quickly, Bastings, I feel we may already be too late.

0:01:080:01:11

EVIL LAUGHTER

0:01:110:01:13

Ah, Virgule Watteau, I knew you would find me here.

0:01:130:01:17

And I knew that you knew.

0:01:170:01:19

You see, Baron, Virgule Watteau, she is always one step ahead.

0:01:190:01:25

Arrest that kidnapper, Bastings.

0:01:250:01:27

Not this time, Watteau,

0:01:270:01:29

not if you want to see your dearest friend alive again.

0:01:290:01:33

One false move and I'll drop him.

0:01:330:01:36

EVIL LAUGHTER

0:01:360:01:38

Atchoo!

0:01:380:01:40

-Oh, no!

-Sorry, there must be a cat in here.

0:01:400:01:43

Bastings, he dropped him.

0:01:430:01:45

I'll apprehend the Baron, you get to the street.

0:01:450:01:48

Look, Virgule Watteau has got he Baron.

0:01:530:01:55

She's done it again! CHEERING

0:01:550:01:58

But at what cost?

0:01:580:02:00

My dearest friend in the world,

0:02:010:02:04

no-one will ever know how I felt about you!

0:02:040:02:08

My little Portilex 360

0:02:080:02:13

with wireless chatback and 157 ring tones.

0:02:130:02:17

Speak to me!

0:02:180:02:21

Why?

0:02:210:02:25

Oh, Bamboo, you're the best elephant a little girl could ever have.

0:02:340:02:39

PHONE RINGS

0:02:390:02:41

It's my brother. He's calling from college.

0:02:410:02:43

-Hi, Chip, how's Tallahassee Tech? Did you make captain...?

-Shh!

0:02:430:02:48

Sure I can talk, the movie's almost over.

0:02:480:02:51

Uhuh. No!

0:02:510:02:53

That's so unfair!

0:02:530:02:56

-Sorry!

-You have to tell Daddy - he paid for that badminton court.

0:02:560:03:02

I was really glad you invited me to the movies,

0:03:030:03:06

but I wish you'd turned your phone off. I don't even know how it ended.

0:03:060:03:10

Huh? Oh, the elephant dies. It's really sad.

0:03:110:03:14

SHE LAUGHS

0:03:140:03:16

-Muffy, what are you looking at?

-I'm just texting Bailey.

0:03:170:03:21

But he's right outside.

0:03:210:03:23

Oh, I didn't notice.

0:03:230:03:25

"I C U, Bailey."

0:03:260:03:30

SHE LAUGHS

0:03:300:03:32

She was more interested in that phone than me.

0:03:330:03:36

It was infuriating. What's so great about cell phones?

0:03:360:03:40

They make life easier. You don't have to carry change for payphones.

0:03:400:03:44

But people are on them constantly. Just look around you.

0:03:440:03:48

He's using one, so is she.

0:03:480:03:50

And her. And him!

0:03:500:03:53

And all of them!

0:03:530:03:55

They all have little machines plastered to their ears.

0:03:550:03:58

You're right! It's like the phones are controlling them,

0:04:000:04:03

altering their brainwaves and turning them into a species of robot!

0:04:030:04:08

PHONE RINGS Agh!

0:04:080:04:10

Mom, I'm on my way.

0:04:100:04:12

Get off the phone before it turns you into a robot!

0:04:120:04:16

Here, have some carrots.

0:04:160:04:18

You'll never see me with one of those things!

0:04:180:04:22

RINGING

0:04:220:04:24

Now, it's only for emergencies.

0:04:260:04:28

Or if I'm running late to pick you up from school.

0:04:280:04:32

-Or if I'm away on business and you want to say hello.

-Ow!

0:04:320:04:35

Don't use it too much, OK, honey?

0:04:350:04:37

Trust me, I won't.

0:04:370:04:39

You don't like it? Did I get the wrong colour?

0:04:390:04:42

They had one with polka dots. I could exchange it.

0:04:420:04:45

No, Mom, it's perfect. Thank you.

0:04:450:04:48

Ferny, don't forget the instruction booklet.

0:04:480:04:51

"To engage security function, press star 66."

0:04:530:04:58

Security breach! Step away from the phone!

0:04:580:05:01

Step away from the phone!

0:05:010:05:03

You have the Portilex 360?!

0:05:030:05:06

-I

-have the Portilex 360!

0:05:060:05:09

I just got it. The other one I had was so last fall.

0:05:090:05:13

Big deal! It's just a phone.

0:05:130:05:15

Fern, the Portilex 360 is not just a phone -

0:05:150:05:20

it's a telecommunications system with ever-exapnding interfaces.

0:05:200:05:24

See - it says so right there.

0:05:240:05:27

-What's your ring tone?

-Beats me.

0:05:270:05:29

You haven't selected one yet?!

0:05:290:05:32

Here, I'll help you.

0:05:320:05:34

There are 157 of them, you know.

0:05:340:05:36

Menus, options, settings, preferences, tones,

0:05:360:05:40

ring library, folder b, file 43...

0:05:400:05:42

Oh, just choose anything, I really don't ca...!

0:05:420:05:45

GENTLE MUSIC PLAYS

0:05:450:05:47

That's the theme to Mid-afternoon Mystery Theatre,

0:05:470:05:51

-my favourite show!

-Pretty cool, huh?

0:05:510:05:54

Scoot over. I'll show you how to operate chatback,

0:05:540:05:58

the instant messaging feature. And you'll love the camera!

0:05:580:06:02

Look, Bastings, a clue.

0:06:020:06:04

It is a feather from the boa of the missing Countess.

0:06:040:06:08

Great Scot, Watteau!

0:06:080:06:10

Here, put it in my clue pouch and we'll show it to Inspector Clapp.

0:06:100:06:15

There is no need, mon ami,

0:06:150:06:17

Virgule Watteau will photograph it with her Portilex 360!

0:06:170:06:22

-Her what?

-Voila!

0:06:220:06:24

Is not the image clear and the colours lifelike?

0:06:240:06:28

You can't have a cell phone - it's supposed to be the 1930s.

0:06:280:06:31

Ah, but Virgule Watteau, she is always one step ahead.

0:06:310:06:36

Ah! I think I lost it!

0:06:360:06:38

Let's see...

0:06:380:06:39

-menus, options, gallery...

-Your moustache, Watteau.

0:06:390:06:44

-Thanks.

-Now, let's see, would it be in recent photos or image library?

0:06:440:06:49

# I never thought it could be true

0:06:500:06:54

# That I'd be so fond of you

0:06:540:06:57

# I'm flesh and blood and you're just a piece of plastic

0:06:570:07:02

# But when I hear you start to ring

0:07:030:07:07

-# Something in me wants to sing! #

-Shh!

0:07:070:07:10

# And with you in my hand I feel fantastic

0:07:100:07:16

# You're my purple friend

0:07:180:07:22

# My special purple friend

0:07:220:07:26

# And together there is nothing we can't do

0:07:260:07:30

-# Text a buddy!

-Go online!

-Snap a photo!

-Check the time!

0:07:300:07:34

-# Write a sonnet!

-I'll get on it!

-Oh, this feeling's unexpected

0:07:340:07:38

# But now we're so connected

0:07:380:07:41

# My little purple friend

0:07:410:07:44

# And me! #

0:07:440:07:49

MOBILE RING TONE

0:07:490:07:51

Hey, Muffy.

0:07:520:07:53

No!

0:07:530:07:55

She broke up with him?!

0:07:550:07:57

Is Chip upset?

0:07:570:07:59

What was Lexie thinking?

0:07:590:08:01

I thought he was seeing Lexie.

0:08:020:08:04

Oh, Biff's seeing Lexie.

0:08:040:08:08

-SHE LAUGHS

-How'd they get a cow in the library?

0:08:080:08:11

-Ferny!

-Hold on.

0:08:110:08:13

I have three houses to show so I may be home late tonight.

0:08:130:08:17

But your father's making dinner. Bye, Sweetie.

0:08:170:08:19

How'd they get it out?

0:08:190:08:22

-SHE LAUGHS

-That Biff!

0:08:220:08:25

Uhuh. Yeah.

0:08:270:08:30

That's terrible.

0:08:300:08:32

I know. So now my toenails are strawberry surprise

0:08:320:08:35

and my fingernails are ravishing red.

0:08:350:08:38

It's a complete disaster.

0:08:380:08:40

Here, I'll send you a picture.

0:08:400:08:42

FERN LAUGHS

0:08:440:08:46

I don't know. Maybe turkey on wholewheat.

0:08:460:08:49

I'm in a turkey mood today.

0:08:490:08:51

Looks like the machines have taken control of Fern.

0:08:510:08:54

Soon they'll have enslaved the entire planet.

0:08:540:08:58

Not me though - I've got my foil ears.

0:08:580:09:01

So although the cotton gin was a leap in technology,

0:09:040:09:08

it also increased the demand for inexpensive labour.

0:09:080:09:11

If we turn to chapter...

0:09:110:09:14

Phone, please. You can have it back after school.

0:09:150:09:18

-But...

-You know the rules, Fern.

0:09:180:09:21

Hmm. How do I turn this off?

0:09:220:09:25

Security breach! Step away from the phone!

0:09:250:09:28

Step away from the phone!

0:09:280:09:30

Come on, come on, come on!

0:09:370:09:39

BELL RINGS Woo-hoo! All right!

0:09:400:09:43

-Man, we've got another test tomorrow.

-Come on!

0:09:430:09:46

Can I please have my phone back now, Mr Ratburn?

0:09:460:09:49

It's in here somewhere.

0:09:500:09:52

Buster's homework excuses. Extra red pens.

0:09:520:09:56

Plato's Republic. Ah! Wait, no, that's my electric razor.

0:09:560:10:01

Fern, I just heard the most amazing news.

0:10:020:10:06

-You'll never guess what happened to my brother now that...

-Hello!

0:10:060:10:10

Muffy, are you there?

0:10:100:10:12

Battery is at 10%. Recharge your Portilex now.

0:10:120:10:16

Battery is at 7%. Please, recharge your Portilex now.

0:10:160:10:21

Battery is at 5%. Recharge your Portilex immediately!

0:10:210:10:25

4%. 3%. Recharge!

0:10:250:10:28

Recharge! 2%.

0:10:280:10:30

Oof!

0:10:300:10:32

MOBILE PHONE BATTERY DIES Ah!

0:10:320:10:35

No-ooo-ooo!

0:10:400:10:44

It's all my fault.

0:10:440:10:46

I wasn't looking where I was going.

0:10:460:10:49

I'm really sorry.

0:10:490:10:51

We're not upset about the phone. We're just glad you're OK.

0:10:510:10:54

Why were you running away?

0:10:540:10:56

Because the battery was dying and I was expecting a call from Muffy.

0:10:560:11:00

We got you the phone so we could call you and you could call us.

0:11:000:11:04

I know, but we became cell phone friends.

0:11:040:11:10

I guess I sort of got carried away.

0:11:100:11:12

Our suspect was four feet and six inches.

0:11:150:11:18

-And he had a limp.

-A limp.

0:11:180:11:21

By Jove, Watteau, how can you tell?

0:11:210:11:24

Notice, Bastings, the impression of the right foot is deeper.

0:11:240:11:28

But what is this?

0:11:280:11:30

A - how do you say? - lollipop stick.

0:11:300:11:33

Fern, there you are.

0:11:330:11:36

I've been trying to reach you since Friday.

0:11:360:11:38

Why haven't you been answering your phone?

0:11:380:11:41

Oh, I'm sorry, Muffy, I haven't checked my messages.

0:11:410:11:44

What is that?

0:11:440:11:46

My new phone.

0:11:460:11:48

The old one broke. I decided to use my phone only for emergencies,

0:11:480:11:53

so it's probably best you didn't call me on it.

0:11:530:11:55

Don't worry, I wouldn't call that thing if you paid me.

0:11:550:11:59

I thought so.

0:11:590:12:01

Oh, I almost forgot to tell you the big news. Chip's coming home.

0:12:020:12:07

We're having dinner on Sunday and you're invited.

0:12:070:12:10

You see, Bastings,

0:12:110:12:13

sometimes it is the little grey cells, not the cell phones,

0:12:130:12:18

which make the connection.
