0:00:59 > 0:01:01Hey, DW!
0:01:02 > 0:01:03Hey!
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Whoa...!
0:01:10 > 0:01:14- 'What happens next, Fern? - Yeah! Does she make it out alive?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17'Exhausted from her journey,
0:01:17 > 0:01:22'the intrepid explorer searches desperately for water.
0:01:22 > 0:01:27'What's that? She spots a cool mountain stream, but suddenly...'
0:01:27 > 0:01:29- Not so fast!- Oh!
0:01:32 > 0:01:34BIRDS SQUAWK
0:01:34 > 0:01:37ROARS
0:01:37 > 0:01:40I'm going to eat you for lunch!
0:01:40 > 0:01:43Waa-aargh!
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Aa-aargh!
0:01:51 > 0:01:56'Wait a minute! Firstly, there's no such thing as a giant gorilla.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59'Second, gorillas don't eat people.'
0:01:59 > 0:02:03It's true. I prefer leaves and fruit.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07'And finally, gorillas don't talk!
0:02:09 > 0:02:11'Aw! You wrecked Fern's story!
0:02:11 > 0:02:16- 'You always do that! - Why, Brain? Why?
0:02:22 > 0:02:25'Brain!'
0:02:35 > 0:02:37And then Brain said it wasn't a good story
0:02:37 > 0:02:40cos a goat with wings was unbelievable.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44Well, he IS right. Goats don't have wings.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Who cares if it's believable?
0:02:46 > 0:02:48Stories are supposed to be fun.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52Can you imagine what Brain's stories would be like?
0:02:52 > 0:02:55'Once upon a time, there were three little pigs.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59'They did not build houses, because pigs lack opposable thumbs,
0:02:59 > 0:03:03'which is necessary to hold tools. They went in the woods
0:03:03 > 0:03:05'and fed on grass and roots.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08'They were not disturbed by wolves. The end.'
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Just imagining it makes me bored.
0:03:11 > 0:03:16If Brain wants a realistic story, that's what I'll give him.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Hmm! Now, what should it be about?
0:03:19 > 0:03:21BELL RINGS
0:03:21 > 0:03:25- Class, who can guess what's in this box?- A mummified platypus?
0:03:25 > 0:03:28- Designer shoes?- Worms?
0:03:28 > 0:03:32Very good. Extra credit for you, Binky.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34All right!
0:03:34 > 0:03:36(How did you know it was worms?
0:03:36 > 0:03:41(I always guess worms. I had to be right sometime.)
0:03:41 > 0:03:45This is a vermiculture box, meaning it has worms in it for composting.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52You put your kitchen scraps in, the worms eat it and change it to soil.
0:03:52 > 0:03:57When the worms eat the scraps, do they get bigger and bigger?
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Well, yes, Fern, they do get a little bigger.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04And I guess they could eventually turn into giant worms, right?
0:04:04 > 0:04:06And take over Elwood City?
0:04:06 > 0:04:09That's nonsense.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11As the scientist Carl Sagan once said,
0:04:11 > 0:04:15"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence."
0:04:15 > 0:04:20- And I'm afraid there's no evidence for giant worms.- Yet!
0:04:20 > 0:04:25(Binky, would you like to help me with the greatest hoax of all time?)
0:04:30 > 0:04:35- Tell me again why we've just bought 800 worms.- You heard Mr Ratburn.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
0:04:38 > 0:04:43Well, this is part of our extraordinary evidence.
0:04:43 > 0:04:48This will be one story that Brain believes hook, line and sinker!
0:04:48 > 0:04:51BOTH LAUGH
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Wait!
0:04:55 > 0:04:59- What am I laughing at? - Just follow me.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20"Buster's tomatoes" This is the spot.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31Hi! Buster, did you bring any fresh tomatoes from your garden today?
0:05:31 > 0:05:33This salad could use them.
0:05:33 > 0:05:39No. I was going to, but there were too many worms around my plants.
0:05:39 > 0:05:40Too many worms?
0:05:40 > 0:05:45Yeah. I'm used to seeing a few, but this morning there were hundreds.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50- It creeped me out.- Odd. Sometimes there are more worms when it rains,
0:05:50 > 0:05:54- but it didn't rain last night. - You don't suppose...?- What?
0:05:54 > 0:06:01- That worms are taking over Elwood City? Please!- They were everywhere!
0:06:01 > 0:06:06You find worms in the dirt. That's where they live, end of story.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13OWL HOOTS
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Fern, I gotta hand it to you.
0:06:16 > 0:06:20When you plan to trick someone, you go all the way.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Ssh! Keep your voice down, and start digging.
0:06:35 > 0:06:41Hey, guys! Look at this! These holes are really weird.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45- Could they possibly be from...? - ALL: Giant worms!
0:06:45 > 0:06:51Impossible! Although I agree they are weird.
0:06:54 > 0:06:58There! All done.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01- What do you think of the giant worm?- Waagh!
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Wow! It's even better than I thought.
0:07:04 > 0:07:09- How's the slime?- Pretty good, but we could use a little more mint jelly.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17I was surprised to receive your phone call this morning.
0:07:17 > 0:07:22Well, I need an author's photo as part of my latest story,
0:07:22 > 0:07:26so I thought, "Brain is scientific. He'll take the best picture."
0:07:26 > 0:07:29I am a pretty good photographer.
0:07:33 > 0:07:38Nice! Hey, I'll take one of you now.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Right...there.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42OK, here we go.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47I think it's perfect.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53But...what's that in the background?!
0:07:53 > 0:07:55No!
0:07:55 > 0:07:58It just couldn't be!
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Could that thing have been a giant worm?!
0:08:01 > 0:08:04What's all this green slime?
0:08:04 > 0:08:06There must be a logical explanation.
0:08:06 > 0:08:11We're right by the library. Maybe we can find some answers in there.
0:08:11 > 0:08:12Of course! The library!
0:08:18 > 0:08:24The computer says all the worm books are located right here...
0:08:24 > 0:08:28Oh, no! They can't ALL be gone!
0:08:28 > 0:08:29Huh? What's this?
0:08:30 > 0:08:34"From the National Secret Anti-Worm Squad.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38"Remove all worm books from the local library
0:08:38 > 0:08:41"to keep people from discovering the truth
0:08:41 > 0:08:45"about the giant worm invasion of Elwood City." Aagh!
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Waargh!
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Gotcha!
0:09:04 > 0:09:09There are no giant worms. There are no giant worms. There are no...
0:09:09 > 0:09:11giant worms.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21What?!
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Mom? Dad?
0:09:29 > 0:09:33'This invasion started in an elementary school in Elwood City.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35'But now they're everywhere! Oh!
0:09:35 > 0:09:38'They're even in the studio! No!
0:09:38 > 0:09:40'Wa-aargh!'
0:09:45 > 0:09:47What's going on?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Aa-aa-aargh!
0:10:00 > 0:10:02Oh-h!
0:10:02 > 0:10:07It's true! The worms are coming! The worms are coming!
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Binky, my friend, that was sheer genius!
0:10:11 > 0:10:15You should have seen the look on his face!
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Oh, hang on. I have another call.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Hello?
0:10:20 > 0:10:22..You're doing what?!
0:10:22 > 0:10:25- Yeah!- Get the worms!
0:10:25 > 0:10:28Let's do it! Let's get the worms!
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Thank you all for coming so quickly.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34As you all know, we have to stop these giant worms, now.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36ALL: Yeah!
0:10:36 > 0:10:41- What have I done? - Agh! Giant worms! We're doomed!
0:10:41 > 0:10:45Binky! There ARE no giant worms, remember?
0:10:45 > 0:10:47You helped me with the hoax.
0:10:47 > 0:10:52So? Just because it's a hoax doesn't mean it isn't true. We're doomed!
0:10:54 > 0:10:57ALL CHANT IN PROTEST
0:10:57 > 0:11:02This all started with those worms in the school. Let's get them first.
0:11:02 > 0:11:03ALL: Yeah!
0:11:11 > 0:11:14They've got him in their wormy grip! We'll save you, Mr Ratburn!
0:11:14 > 0:11:17What's the meaning of this...?
0:11:20 > 0:11:25Alan, whatever gave you the idea there were giant worms?
0:11:25 > 0:11:29There was extraordinary evidence - the worms in the garden,
0:11:29 > 0:11:31all those worm holes, the worm in the photo.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34And the National Secret Anti-Worm Squad.
0:11:34 > 0:11:40I mean, it was like...some fantastic story that Fern would make up!
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Actually, er...it was.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47I made everything up to show Brain that I could tell a good story,
0:11:47 > 0:11:50and it, er, got a little out of control.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52And I helped!
0:11:52 > 0:11:56I see. Well, seeing as how that's all straightened out,
0:11:56 > 0:12:01- would anyone like to see how REAL worms help the environment?- I would.
0:12:01 > 0:12:05Wonderful! Well, then, let's get started.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09Although not as exciting as Fern's story, the truth is
0:12:09 > 0:12:13the worms' amazing digestion makes soil out of scraps.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17- Wow! They're eating everything. - Let me put something in.
0:12:17 > 0:12:22- That's very interesting.- Yep. Banana peel, apple cores, used teabags.
0:12:22 > 0:12:26They can eat almost anything that comes from a plant.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30It's just one way we can all help protect the planet.
