0:00:02 > 0:00:04# Every day when you're walkin' down the street

0:00:04 > 0:00:07# Everybody that you meet

0:00:30 > 0:00:34# Get together, make things better By working together

0:00:34 > 0:00:38# It's a simple message And it comes from the heart

0:00:38 > 0:00:43# Believe in yourself For that's the place to start

0:00:43 > 0:00:48- # And I say, hey!- Hey! - What a wonderful kind of day

0:00:48 > 0:00:53# If you can learn to work and play And get along with each other

0:00:53 > 0:00:59# What a wonderful kind of day, hey! What a wonderful kind of day, HEY! #

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Hey, DW!

0:01:02 > 0:01:04- Hey!- Whoa! Ow!

0:01:09 > 0:01:11One thing that really bugs me

0:01:11 > 0:01:14is when people get so obsessed by something that...

0:01:14 > 0:01:16Oh, hold on.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19Anyway, they get so obsessed that they just can't stop!

0:01:19 > 0:01:23Like when Buster thought that if he didn't listen to every Greaves game

0:01:23 > 0:01:25- they would start losing again. - Yes!

0:01:28 > 0:01:31'A great slam by Clayman and the Greaves are up by one.'

0:01:32 > 0:01:35Then there was the time that Dad and Mr Molina got into a competition

0:01:35 > 0:01:38over who had the best Christmas decorations.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41This year, David, I am putting you to shame!

0:01:44 > 0:01:45Think again, Ramone!

0:01:48 > 0:01:49POWERING DOWN

0:01:49 > 0:01:53I mean, really, why is it so hard for people to realise

0:01:53 > 0:01:55when they should just stop?

0:01:55 > 0:01:56< Arthur, dinner!

0:01:56 > 0:01:59Coming, Mom!

0:01:59 > 0:02:00Just one more.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13Mom, it's time for my chess tournament.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17Alan, it doesn't start for another hour, we have plenty of time.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20But I have to get there early, it helps my concentration.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23Sorry, honey, you'll have to wait a little bit

0:02:23 > 0:02:24while I finish up the bills.

0:02:33 > 0:02:38'It's a clue to the password - get pi to eight places.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41'What is that? Some kind of a dessert code?'

0:02:41 > 0:02:453.14159265

0:02:45 > 0:02:49'Not pie like cherry pie, pi the mathematical constant

0:02:49 > 0:02:52'to eight decimal places.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55'3.14159265'

0:02:55 > 0:02:57These shows are so predictable.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00- 'ALARM SOUNDS' - 'Run!'

0:03:05 > 0:03:07'Ah, we made it!'

0:03:07 > 0:03:09'ROARING'

0:03:09 > 0:03:11'A walrus in the jungle?'

0:03:11 > 0:03:16'30 kids, a mysterious island, will they escape?'

0:03:16 > 0:03:19I'm ready, Alan, let's hit that chess tournament.

0:03:19 > 0:03:20I'll be right there,

0:03:20 > 0:03:23I just want to watch this absurd show for a few more minutes.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27How was your chess tournament yesterday?

0:03:27 > 0:03:30It was OK, I won. I saw this inane TV show yesterday.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32These kids get marooned on an island

0:03:32 > 0:03:35when their ship crashes on the way to summer camp.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37- Ah-huh.- They're supposed to be in seventh grade,

0:03:37 > 0:03:40but they survive by hunting antelope with bows and arrows.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43As if a seventh grader could ever do that!

0:03:43 > 0:03:46And the island has a laboratory on it built by a mad scientist

0:03:46 > 0:03:50who's discovered how to create new animals. Like a jungle walrus.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52Sounds cool!

0:03:52 > 0:03:54How could one guy on an island

0:03:54 > 0:03:56achieve such an important breakthrough?

0:03:56 > 0:03:57It's impossible!

0:03:59 > 0:04:02Maybe he's from a very advanced alien civilisation.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04And then there's this girl Devin,

0:04:04 > 0:04:06she develops the ability to talk to animals!

0:04:06 > 0:04:09And she's stronger than half the boys!

0:04:09 > 0:04:13What's so unrealistic about a girl being stronger than boys?

0:04:13 > 0:04:15Well, OK, I guess that part IS plausible.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18For a silly show, you sure are talking about it a lot.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20Quiet, please.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22For our history unit on the Middle Ages

0:04:22 > 0:04:24each of you will be assigned to present an oral report

0:04:24 > 0:04:25by the end of the week.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27If any of you have ideas for topics...

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Swords and armour!

0:04:29 > 0:04:31Very well, Binky, swords and armour.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33Alan, how about you?

0:04:33 > 0:04:36Huh? Oh, uh... The Magna Carta.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40Ah, one of the most important documents in medieval history.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44The Magna Carta was an English charter issued in 1215

0:04:44 > 0:04:46that was of great significance because...

0:04:50 > 0:04:53'Guys, we have to find a way off this island!'

0:04:53 > 0:04:58'One of us has to sail the lifeboat out past the breakers and get help.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00'It's our only way!'

0:05:00 > 0:05:01'It's too risky, Trent.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04'But if we can just get some batteries from the lab

0:05:04 > 0:05:06'then I can programme the ship's transmitter

0:05:06 > 0:05:08'to send a distress signal.'

0:05:08 > 0:05:09'Wake up, computer nerd.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12'It's time for somebody to take action.'

0:05:12 > 0:05:14Devin should pay more attention to Byron.

0:05:14 > 0:05:15'Stay tuned,

0:05:15 > 0:05:19'as our back-to-back marathon of Junior Island continues.'

0:05:21 > 0:05:24'We're trapped in this mad scientist's creepy zoo,

0:05:24 > 0:05:26'what should we do, Trent?'

0:05:26 > 0:05:31'Nothing we can do, Devin, but wait and hope that someone finds us.'

0:05:31 > 0:05:36Just use the code, it's pi! You learned it in episode six!

0:05:36 > 0:05:39This wouldn't be happening if Byron was there.

0:05:39 > 0:05:41DOORBELL RINGS

0:05:44 > 0:05:47We're going riding in the park, wanna come?

0:05:47 > 0:05:49No, I've gotta work on my report.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52We thought you were done. You were watching TV...

0:05:52 > 0:05:54No, I wasn't, I was working...

0:05:54 > 0:05:56Brain, we heard the TV on.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58Maybe it was in another house.

0:06:00 > 0:06:04OK...well, see you at school, I guess.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15HE WHISTLES

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Hey! I know that theme song.

0:06:17 > 0:06:18Are you into Junior Island?

0:06:18 > 0:06:21That depends what you mean by into.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25I was crazy about that show. I've seen every episode.

0:06:25 > 0:06:29You have to be careful, though, it's kind of addictive.

0:06:29 > 0:06:30So, do they get off the island?

0:06:30 > 0:06:33You just have to watch and find out,

0:06:33 > 0:06:36but don't watch too many at once, it can make you...

0:06:36 > 0:06:38Make me what?

0:06:38 > 0:06:40OK, time for our oral reports.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42Who would like to get us started?

0:06:42 > 0:06:43Oh! Me first!

0:06:43 > 0:06:47Well, Binky, this is a welcome surprise, please, go ahead.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50In early medieval times,

0:06:50 > 0:06:53knights used swords and their armour was a shirt

0:06:53 > 0:06:56with metal rings called chain mail.

0:06:56 > 0:07:00Eventually, they made armour out of steel plates

0:07:00 > 0:07:03that could cover every part of the knight's body.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05The end.

0:07:05 > 0:07:07Excellent report, Binky.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09I can't imagine how anyone could top that!

0:07:09 > 0:07:12Alan, want to give it a try?

0:07:13 > 0:07:14- <- Alan?

0:07:14 > 0:07:17What?! Oh, sure.

0:07:18 > 0:07:19HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:07:19 > 0:07:23In 1215, the most powerful barons of England

0:07:23 > 0:07:26forced King John to meet them at Runnymede Meadow

0:07:26 > 0:07:29and sign the agreement later known as the Magna Carta.

0:07:29 > 0:07:30It was...

0:07:30 > 0:07:32That's it!

0:07:32 > 0:07:36They could build a giant longbow that would launch them off the island!

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Excuse me, Alan?

0:07:39 > 0:07:43Oh, it's this TV show I... Never mind.

0:07:43 > 0:07:47The Magna Carta was a legal document that limited the power of the king.

0:07:49 > 0:07:50That's all?

0:07:50 > 0:07:51Uh, yes.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53Very well, who's next?

0:07:55 > 0:07:59Don't forget to pick up your oral report grades on your way out.

0:08:01 > 0:08:05Mr Ratburn, this is a C, there must be some mistake!

0:08:05 > 0:08:07That's what I felt your report deserved.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10Although I must confess, I was a little surprised as well.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13But this could ruin my grade-point average!

0:08:13 > 0:08:17If you can re-do your report by Thursday, I'll reconsider the C.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21Like I said, never watch more than one a day

0:08:21 > 0:08:24and stay away from the DVD box set.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Yeah, I guess you're right.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29Wait! You can get the episodes on DVD?

0:08:32 > 0:08:34Is this it, Alan?

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Just this DVD?

0:08:36 > 0:08:38You usually leave with a stack of books.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41Oh, um... I'll take this as well.

0:08:41 > 0:08:47Adventures In Macrame? You certainly do have eclectic tastes.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19You guys, wait up!

0:09:19 > 0:09:22Hey, Brain, glad you decided to come out.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24I just need a favour.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26I need you to hold this key for me, until tomorrow,

0:09:26 > 0:09:28no matter what I do or say,

0:09:28 > 0:09:30don't give it back to me!

0:09:30 > 0:09:35Uh, OK, but maybe Arthur should take it, I lose keys all the time.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Even better. You take it!

0:09:40 > 0:09:45The Magna Carta was... Contrary to popular belief, the Magna Carta...

0:09:45 > 0:09:49As every schoolchild knows, the Magna Carta... Ugh!

0:09:49 > 0:09:51It's no use!

0:09:51 > 0:09:53I have to know if they get off the island!

0:09:54 > 0:09:56Forget what I said before, I was crazy,

0:09:56 > 0:09:58I didn't know what I was saying!

0:09:58 > 0:10:00You've got to give me the key!

0:10:00 > 0:10:01Are you sure?

0:10:01 > 0:10:05You seemed a lot less crazy before than you do now.

0:10:05 > 0:10:06Look! A jungle walrus!

0:10:06 > 0:10:08Where? That? That's just...

0:10:08 > 0:10:09Hey!

0:10:22 > 0:10:25No-ooooo!

0:10:26 > 0:10:30TRIUMPHANT MUSIC

0:10:30 > 0:10:32- 'Look! Byron has come to save us!' - DOORBELL RINGS

0:10:32 > 0:10:35'Took you long enough, egghead!'

0:10:35 > 0:10:38Brain? It's me, Fern. Are you there?

0:10:40 > 0:10:41I'm coming in, OK?

0:10:41 > 0:10:42They could dig a tunnel.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45No! The water pressure would cause it to collapse.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47It's worse than I thought.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Get a grip on yourself!

0:10:49 > 0:10:51Fern! Turn it back on!

0:10:51 > 0:10:54Didn't I tell you to watch one a day, or less?

0:10:54 > 0:10:58But how are they gonna get off? We just can't leave them there!

0:10:58 > 0:11:00Brain, it's just a TV show.

0:11:00 > 0:11:01It's not real!

0:11:01 > 0:11:04Here, THIS is real.

0:11:04 > 0:11:07Do you know what we're gonna do now?

0:11:07 > 0:11:11We're going to write my oral report.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13What on earth happened here?

0:11:13 > 0:11:16Sorry, I'll clean this up when we're done.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21So, to sum up, the Magna Carta was a lot more

0:11:21 > 0:11:23than an early legal document.

0:11:23 > 0:11:27It meant that from that point on, even the king had to obey the law.

0:11:27 > 0:11:29Good job, Alan.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32Don't forget your biology projects for tomorrow.

0:11:32 > 0:11:33You're not gonna just run home

0:11:33 > 0:11:36and watch six episodes of Junior Island, are you?

0:11:36 > 0:11:39Trust me, I'll stick to the limits.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42After I finish my homework, I'm just gonna watch one.

0:11:42 > 0:11:43OK.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46So, which one are you gonna watch?

0:11:48 > 0:11:50'Two years on this island

0:11:50 > 0:11:52'and there was a land bridge here all this time?'

0:11:52 > 0:11:57'I told you we should've checked the other side of the island!

0:11:57 > 0:11:59'Why doesn't anyone ever listen to me?'

0:11:59 > 0:12:04'Give it a rest, Einstein, we've got a long walk home.'

0:12:04 > 0:12:06That's it?! That's how they get off?!

0:12:06 > 0:12:07PHONE RINGS

0:12:09 > 0:12:11Well, pretty amazing, huh?

0:12:11 > 0:12:14Pretty ridiculous, it doesn't make any sense.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16Well, it might in the next season.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18I hear that they get shipwrecked again...

0:12:18 > 0:12:20You know what? I think I finally kicked the habit.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23Goodnight, Fern, thanks for all your help.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25And goodnight Junior Island.
