0:00:13 > 0:00:15# What a wonderful kind of day
0:00:15 > 0:00:18# If you can learn to work and play

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Hey, DW!
0:01:02 > 0:01:05- Hey!- Whoa... Urgh!
0:01:11 > 0:01:14Do you ever think about all the things we take for granted?
0:01:14 > 0:01:18- Like what?- Like the little plastic tip of the shoelace!
0:01:18 > 0:01:23Without this, it'd be really hard to get the lace through the hole!
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Come to think of it, I rarely think about the rest of the lace, either!
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Got it!
0:01:29 > 0:01:31Aaah! Oh!
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Unless it's untied!
0:01:35 > 0:01:36How about the ant?
0:01:36 > 0:01:40Did you know ants can carry more than 20 times their weight?
0:01:40 > 0:01:41Ants are amazing!
0:01:41 > 0:01:44I know! And I never notice them!
0:01:46 > 0:01:49And what about the good old park bench?
0:01:49 > 0:01:52Always there when you need it. And yet, we take it for granted!
0:01:52 > 0:01:55THEY BOTH SIGH
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Hey, let's go notice some things at the Sugar Bowl.
0:01:58 > 0:01:59I'm starving!
0:02:00 > 0:02:03What about noticing me for a change?
0:02:03 > 0:02:05It's like I'm invisible!
0:02:05 > 0:02:07What about you guys?
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Do any of you see me?
0:02:12 > 0:02:13Oh!
0:02:20 > 0:02:255...6...7...8...9...10!
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Ready or not, here I come!
0:02:29 > 0:02:31- Hey!- Oh!- Take that!
0:02:32 > 0:02:35- Ha-ha-ha!- Oh!
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Ha-ha-ha!
0:02:39 > 0:02:41That's everyone, I win!
0:02:41 > 0:02:43ICE-CREAM VAN MUSIC
0:02:43 > 0:02:45ALL: Ice cream!
0:02:46 > 0:02:50Hello? Where did everybody go?
0:02:52 > 0:02:54You forgot to find me!
0:02:54 > 0:02:57And you got ice cream?!
0:02:57 > 0:02:58Um...no, I didn't!
0:02:58 > 0:03:00There, found you, I win!
0:03:04 > 0:03:05Here, I got you an ice cream.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07I wasn't hungry.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09George! Wait!
0:03:09 > 0:03:11It was just a mistake!
0:03:14 > 0:03:16They forgot I was even there!
0:03:16 > 0:03:19I could have stayed behind that tree forever!
0:03:19 > 0:03:22Well, there are worse places to live!
0:03:22 > 0:03:26I come from an oak tree myself, and I'm proud of it!
0:03:26 > 0:03:29No-one ever pays attention to me!
0:03:29 > 0:03:31It's like I don't even exist.
0:03:31 > 0:03:35You exist, George, you're just as real as I am!
0:03:35 > 0:03:37You're not real, Wally!
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Oh! That's a terrible thing to say!
0:03:39 > 0:03:44If that's the way you feel, then I'm never saying another word!
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Hey! That's a great idea!
0:03:47 > 0:03:52I'll just stop talking and see if anybody even notices!
0:03:52 > 0:03:57I hereby vow not to talk to anyone, anymore!
0:03:57 > 0:03:58Except you!
0:03:58 > 0:04:02Oh, George, there you are!
0:04:02 > 0:04:06I was looking all over! I just wanted to say...
0:04:06 > 0:04:08George?
0:04:09 > 0:04:13If you want to enter your project in the woodworking contest,
0:04:13 > 0:04:15please say yes when I call your name.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18- Arthur? Want to enter your stool? - Yes!
0:04:18 > 0:04:22How about you, Binky? Want to enter your...what is it, again?
0:04:22 > 0:04:27Either a coat-rack, or a doorstop. I haven't decided yet! But yes!
0:04:27 > 0:04:29- OK...
0:04:29 > 0:04:34George, I'm sure you want to enter your marble run, right?
0:04:41 > 0:04:44The winner gets a trip to the Elwood City Inventors Museum!
0:04:46 > 0:04:49All right, it's your decision.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52Buster, how about your, uh... cutting board?
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Of course! How could I lose?
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Hi, George, what'll it be today?
0:04:58 > 0:05:02The lasagne? Or something new? I call it Baba Goulash!
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Beef strips and egg plant in a cream sauce,
0:05:05 > 0:05:07topped off with raisins and olives!
0:05:07 > 0:05:08HE GASPS
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Mmm, mmm!
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Yes, it does smell good, doesn't it?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Baba Goulash it is!
0:05:14 > 0:05:16You're the first one to ask for it!
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Guys, we have to do something about George.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31He was really upset after hide and seek!
0:05:31 > 0:05:33George was at hide and seek? Huh! I didn't notice!
0:05:33 > 0:05:37Exactly! And it's not the first time we've forgotten about him.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39We could throw him a party!
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Yeah! It'll be a "George, we know you're there" party!
0:05:42 > 0:05:45I like it! But let's not call it that.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48We could have a big cake that George pops out of!
0:05:48 > 0:05:51We can't do that! Then George would have to know about it,
0:05:51 > 0:05:53and it should be a surprise, right?
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Definitely! Right, so nobody say anything to him.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58OK. Here's what we'll do.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00(We'll meet after school in the yard, and then...)
0:06:02 > 0:06:04This not talking thing is hard!
0:06:04 > 0:06:08I haven't been this quiet since that time my jaw fell off.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11And the worst thing is, no-one's noticed!
0:06:11 > 0:06:14I'm just gonna keep it up until someone does.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16PHONE RINGS
0:06:16 > 0:06:17Aren't you going to answer that?
0:06:17 > 0:06:20I can't talk to anyone, remember?
0:06:20 > 0:06:21PHONE BEEPS
0:06:21 > 0:06:24'You've reached the Lundgrens, leave a message!'
0:06:24 > 0:06:27- Hi! It's Sue Ellen calling for George.- Sue Ellen?!
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Hey! This counts as someone talking to ya!
0:06:30 > 0:06:32You're right!
0:06:32 > 0:06:34I need a favour, um...
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Some help with my... woodworking project!
0:06:36 > 0:06:40Could you meet me at the treehouse tomorrow after school?
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Thanks.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45What's the matter? She called you, didn't she?
0:06:45 > 0:06:49Oh, sure. They call me when they need something.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Otherwise, it's like I don't exist.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59George, oh, George? Wake up!
0:06:59 > 0:07:00Huh?
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Wally?
0:07:02 > 0:07:06I'm not Wally! I'm Wizard Wally, I'm magical!
0:07:09 > 0:07:10PICTURE SMASHES Oops!
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Oh, well. I never liked that picture!
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Now, come with me. I'm gonna show you what life would be like
0:07:15 > 0:07:17if you never existed.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Cool!
0:07:22 > 0:07:24I remember a movie just like this!
0:07:24 > 0:07:27This man is shown what life would be like if he never existed,
0:07:27 > 0:07:32and everyone's sad and poor, and a bad guy runs everything!
0:07:32 > 0:07:33It's terrible!
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Exactly!
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Hey, Arthur! Buster!
0:07:40 > 0:07:42They can't hear you, George.
0:07:42 > 0:07:47..and then, the banana says, "Sorry, but I've got to split!"
0:07:47 > 0:07:49- Ha-ha-ha!- Ha-ha-ha!
0:07:49 > 0:07:52They don't seem so sad.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54And Muffy certainly doesn't seem poor!
0:07:56 > 0:07:57Hmmm. You're right.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01Oh! That's because we're in the wrong fantasy!
0:08:01 > 0:08:06- This is what the world would be like if- I- didn't exist!
0:08:06 > 0:08:07My bad!
0:08:09 > 0:08:10Here we go!
0:08:10 > 0:08:12This is the one where YOU don't exist!
0:08:12 > 0:08:14It's the woodworking room!
0:08:14 > 0:08:17Where are all the tools?
0:08:17 > 0:08:19There is no woodworking class, George.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21No-one was interested enough to sign up.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27If only I had one student who was really into it!
0:08:27 > 0:08:29Then they could get the others interested!
0:08:34 > 0:08:35Hey, I know this spot!
0:08:35 > 0:08:39This is where Buster, Arthur and I play three-way catch sometimes!
0:08:43 > 0:08:45What did you do that for?
0:08:45 > 0:08:48I just had a weird feeling that someone should have been there.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50I know what you mean.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52It's like...someone's missing.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55Whoever he is, I miss him!
0:08:59 > 0:09:00What's the matter with them?
0:09:00 > 0:09:02They're cold, George.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05The house that you and your Dad built for them isn't here
0:09:05 > 0:09:07- because...- Because I never existed.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11And now I'll show you the worst thing of all!
0:09:16 > 0:09:19And do you know what that is, George?
0:09:19 > 0:09:20A log?
0:09:20 > 0:09:22It's me!
0:09:22 > 0:09:24That's the log I came from.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28If you never existed, then I would never have existed.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Argh! It's too horrible!
0:09:35 > 0:09:36I DO matter!
0:09:40 > 0:09:41Hello, Elwood City!
0:09:41 > 0:09:45It's me, George! I'm here and I'm going to talk again!
0:09:45 > 0:09:47BIRDS CHIRP
0:09:47 > 0:09:51Look at the cake I baked for George's surprise party!
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Arthur, Sue Ellen, hi!
0:09:53 > 0:09:57Quick! He can't see the cake, it'll ruin the surprise!
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Moose punch! George's favourite!
0:10:03 > 0:10:06I'm gonna play a song for George on my clarinet.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09It's called A Song for George!
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Buster, Binky! Wait up!
0:10:12 > 0:10:14It's him! Ixnay on the ong-say!
0:10:19 > 0:10:24I was right after all, whether I talk or not, I just don't matter!
0:10:29 > 0:10:31Who needs friends, anyway?
0:10:31 > 0:10:33What am I, chopped liver?
0:10:33 > 0:10:36No, I guess I still have you.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40I'm not feeling the love, George!
0:10:40 > 0:10:43Can we just...not talk for a while?
0:10:43 > 0:10:45I feel like being quiet.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47- George!- Sue Ellen?
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Wally!
0:10:59 > 0:11:00Got him!
0:11:03 > 0:11:04Is he OK?
0:11:04 > 0:11:06WALLY COUGHS
0:11:06 > 0:11:09Oh! That was a close one!
0:11:09 > 0:11:10Good thing I float!
0:11:10 > 0:11:12And that answers my question!
0:11:12 > 0:11:14Where were you?
0:11:14 > 0:11:17We've been waiting at the treehouse for ages!
0:11:17 > 0:11:18We?
0:11:18 > 0:11:20- Your message just said...- Come on!
0:11:20 > 0:11:23I'm not saying another word until we're there.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27BUSTER PLAYS CLARINET
0:11:29 > 0:11:32That was great! But I believe it was Mozart!
0:11:32 > 0:11:34I said it was a song for George,
0:11:34 > 0:11:36I didn't say I wrote it!
0:11:36 > 0:11:37This is for you!
0:11:39 > 0:11:43I won first prize in the woodworking contest?
0:11:43 > 0:11:45But I didn't even enter!
0:11:45 > 0:11:46We entered you!
0:11:46 > 0:11:49That marble thing was way better than anything we could make!
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Hey! Speak for yourself!
0:11:51 > 0:11:54I think this is a great paperweight!
0:11:54 > 0:11:57I...I dunno what to say!
0:11:57 > 0:12:00I'm speechless!
0:12:00 > 0:12:01Actually, you know what?
0:12:01 > 0:12:03I'm not speechless!
0:12:03 > 0:12:04You guys are the best!
0:12:04 > 0:12:08When I get home, I'm calling the Elwood City Inventors Museum
0:12:08 > 0:12:11and making sure you can all come with me!
0:12:11 > 0:12:14And now, we're gonna play hide and seek,
0:12:14 > 0:12:15and I'm 'it'!
0:12:15 > 0:12:16So, hide!
0:12:16 > 0:12:1710...9...
0:12:17 > 0:12:20You're not hiding!
0:12:21 > 0:12:22That's better!
0:12:22 > 0:12:266...5...4...3...2...1!
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Ready or not, here I come!
