0:00:02 > 0:00:05# Every day when you're walking down the street
0:00:05 > 0:00:10# Everybody that you meet has an original point of view
0:00:10 > 0:00:12- # And I say hey - Hey!
0:00:12 > 0:00:15# What a wonderful kind of day
0:00:15 > 0:00:17# If you could learn to work and play
0:00:17 > 0:00:20# And get along with each other
0:00:20 > 0:00:23# You've got to listen to your heart Listen to the beat
0:00:23 > 0:00:26# Listen to the rhythm Rhythm of the street
0:00:26 > 0:00:28# Open up your eyes Open up your ears
0:00:28 > 0:00:32# Get together and make things better By working together
0:00:32 > 0:00:37# It's a simple message and it comes from the heart
0:00:37 > 0:00:38- # Oh, believe in yourself - Believe in yourself
0:00:38 > 0:00:41- # For that's the place to start - Place to start
0:00:41 > 0:00:43- # And I say hey - Hey!
0:00:43 > 0:00:46# What a wonderful kind of day
0:00:46 > 0:00:50# If you can learn to work and play and get along with each other
0:00:50 > 0:00:53# Hey, what a wonderful kind of day
0:00:53 > 0:00:57# Hey, what a wonderful kind of day Hey! #
0:00:57 > 0:00:58Hey, DW!
0:01:00 > 0:01:02- Hey!- Whoa!
0:01:08 > 0:01:09DOG BARKS
0:01:09 > 0:01:14Thank you, thank you. Isn't it great to be appreciated?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17But a lot of big achievements didn't get a round of applause
0:01:17 > 0:01:21when people first found out about them. Like Galileo.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24His revolutionary ideas got him into a lot of trouble.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27The sun does not revolve around the Earth,
0:01:27 > 0:01:30rather the Earth revolves around the sun.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32Ha! That's ridiculous.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Everyone knows that everything revolves around me.
0:01:35 > 0:01:36Take him away.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38HE GASPS
0:01:40 > 0:01:42Even the composer Ludwig van Beethoven
0:01:42 > 0:01:45wasn't a huge success right away.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47One teacher thought he was a hopeless case.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Stop! Stop! Stop!
0:01:53 > 0:01:56It's terrible. You should quit now. Take up another instrument.
0:01:56 > 0:02:02Something easy, like the harmonica. Better yet, don't be a musician.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04Maybe you could become a worm picker.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Oh, and there are no refunds for this lesson!
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Pay at the front desk.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13And there are other famous people who had tough starts, like...
0:02:13 > 0:02:17Here. I'm giving you half a star for the opening of this show.
0:02:17 > 0:02:21One star is usually the lowest you can get, but I made an exception.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23You're wrong! This opening was great,
0:02:23 > 0:02:26but the show will be even better. I promise.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Oh, just start it already.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40What you seek will be found. Trust ghosts.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Trust those that you have helped to help you in their turn.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Trust dreams.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Trust your heart and trust your story.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54- What's your name?- Sue Ellen.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57- Are you a writer, Sue Ellen? - Um, well, kind of.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00I keep a journal and there are some stories in there.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03But I really like drawing and doodling too,
0:03:03 > 0:03:05so I don't know what that makes me.
0:03:05 > 0:03:10It makes you very creative. Ever try your hand at a graphic novel?
0:03:10 > 0:03:13No. What's a graphic novel?
0:03:13 > 0:03:14It's a novel told with pictures,
0:03:14 > 0:03:17or a comic book with a longer story if you like.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- Here's one that was adapted from my book.- Thanks!
0:03:20 > 0:03:23It might inspire you. No, no, it's on the house.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25When your graphic novel gets published,
0:03:25 > 0:03:27you can give me a free copy. Deal?
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Deal.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34Freaky, but cool.
0:03:44 > 0:03:48Sue Ellen's graphic novel.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49SHE YAWNS
0:03:58 > 0:04:03It is the roundness of the falafel, of the pitta, of the planet -
0:04:03 > 0:04:07roundness is wholeness, wholeness is oneness. You understand, yes?
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Er, yeah, sure.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Could I have hot sauce with that? - No. White sauce is better for you.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16You have too much fire in blood.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Mmm! Perfect!
0:04:22 > 0:04:27Huh, maybe I do have too much fire in blood.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30Hi, Mr Contabulous. One with everything, please.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33Is true. We are all one with everything.
0:04:33 > 0:04:37- No, I meant...- But everyone is different also.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39There is pitta people, there is pizza people.
0:04:39 > 0:04:44Pitta people, round like pitta. Pizza people, very pointy,
0:04:44 > 0:04:45always must make point.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Hmm, round people and pointy people.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52This I call falafelosophy. You understand?
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Not really, but I like it.
0:04:56 > 0:05:01What if there was a world filled with only circles and triangles?
0:05:01 > 0:05:04- Ow!- Ha-ha-ha!- And then...
0:05:04 > 0:05:09- Oh, this is silly!- I was quite enjoying it, actually.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12What are you doing in my falafel?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Well, this is a fantasy. Here, this will help.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Cue special effects!
0:05:19 > 0:05:20There, much clearer.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24Don't judge your story, you've just started it.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28I know, but circles and triangles - who's going to like that?
0:05:28 > 0:05:32You never know. You can't assume your audience are all squares.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Ha-ha! OK, scrap that joke.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Bit before your time. Anyway, trust your heart.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Trust your story.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44OK, I'll give it a shot.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Mmm! Delicious!
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Once upon a place, there was a happy time
0:05:53 > 0:05:57when happy circles spun endlessly and beginninglessly,
0:05:57 > 0:06:02and there was no circle more circular than the Great Contabulous!
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Falafelosophy!
0:06:05 > 0:06:09Nearby, the triangles gathered to argue their points.
0:06:09 > 0:06:13- Point! Point, point, point... - Point, point, point...
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- Point, point, point... - Point, point, point...
0:06:16 > 0:06:20They were so consumed with their arguing, that they had never noticed
0:06:20 > 0:06:23their circular neighbours, until Triangulops dropped in.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27- Aargh!- Point them!
0:06:27 > 0:06:30The triangles finally found something they could all agree on -
0:06:30 > 0:06:34circles didn't have any points, they just circulated,
0:06:34 > 0:06:37and that really annoyed the triangles.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41- Point, point, point.- The circles and the triangles didn't know it yet,
0:06:41 > 0:06:44but soon they would be engaged in a great battle -
0:06:44 > 0:06:47the battle of the shapes.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51- I don't get it.- Well, it's just the first chapter.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- I wanted my graphic novel to be really simple...- Graphic novel?
0:06:55 > 0:07:00- What's that? A novel with graphs? - It doesn't sound very marketable.
0:07:00 > 0:07:01A graphic novel is a narrative work
0:07:01 > 0:07:05where the story is largely conveyed to the reader with pictures.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07It still doesn't sound very marketable.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10But who are the circles? Am I a circle?
0:07:10 > 0:07:14Actually, you're more of a triangle. Now, Buster, he's a circle.
0:07:14 > 0:07:20That is so untrue! I'm very circular. How could you think I'm a triangle?
0:07:20 > 0:07:24For the record, I refuse to be categorised by a geometric shape.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27I'm sorry, but we can't publish this.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31I didn't ask you to publish it, I just asked you to read it.
0:07:31 > 0:07:36- Do you think I'm a triangle?- Please, you're the pointiest person I know.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43Ahem! I hate to disturb you, but your smoothie is getting warm.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46You don't want to be stuck with a warm smoothie.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48It's like drinking fruity bath water.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50I'm not thirsty.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54Look, writing can't just be about pleasing other people.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57You've got a story to tell and you're the only one who can tell it.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03I know, but I want them to like it.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Of course you do,
0:08:05 > 0:08:08but sometimes it takes a while for people to appreciate something new.
0:08:08 > 0:08:09Don't give up.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Thanks!
0:08:18 > 0:08:20On a night with no moon, the triangles kidnapped
0:08:20 > 0:08:23the Great Contabulous.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Point! Point! Point! Point! Point! Point! Point! Point!
0:08:28 > 0:08:33Chapter six. Despite all the pointing done by the Triangulops,
0:08:33 > 0:08:37the Great Contabulous would still not deny his circularity.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41The moon reminded him that much in the universe was round,
0:08:41 > 0:08:45and if triangles ever came together, they too could form a pie.
0:08:45 > 0:08:50The battle was in full swing. The triangles charged at the circles.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52The circles bounced on the triangles.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Hey, Shakespeare, be in moment not in book.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Oh, sorry. I was just finishing a chapter.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04- Glad to see you're still writing. - You're very big today.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08Shouldn't you be in my falafel, or cereal, or something?
0:09:08 > 0:09:10- SHE GASPS - You're the real Neil.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14It depends on what you mean by real. But, yes, according to my passport,
0:09:14 > 0:09:18I am almost definitely Neil Gaiman. How's the book coming?
0:09:18 > 0:09:23Great! Actually, terrible. Do you have five minutes?
0:09:23 > 0:09:27Here, with extra hot sauce. Your blood is cold.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34Now I'm up to chapter eight, where it looks like the triangles
0:09:34 > 0:09:36have won the battle and I really like it,
0:09:36 > 0:09:39but no-one else will understand it.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42I think it sounds great! Can I take a look at it?
0:09:42 > 0:09:47Really? Would you? I love... Wait. Where is it?!
0:09:47 > 0:09:50- SHE GASPS - I left it at the falafel truck!
0:09:52 > 0:09:56You can't just abandon your falafel like that. Sue Ellen!
0:09:57 > 0:10:01I gave book to your friends, rich one, bossy one and big head.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Pizza people. They go that way.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11Go after her. She is great writer of falafelosophy. Wait!
0:10:11 > 0:10:15You need more fire. Go! Go!
0:10:19 > 0:10:24I'm too late! They've read it and they obviously think it's terrible.
0:10:24 > 0:10:25< You're completely wrong.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28The triangles are the ones who get things done in the world.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32They have a narrow point of view. See, that's the whole metaphor.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34I'm seeing a 3D movie.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37We need a good British actor for evil Triangulops.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40He's not evil, he's misunderstood.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Your friends don't think it's terrible.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44They may or may not understand it,
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- but they certainly think it's interesting.- They do?
0:10:49 > 0:10:52You know what I want to know, what happens next?
0:10:52 > 0:10:57Ah! The three magic words that every writer always wants to hear -
0:10:57 > 0:10:59what happens next?
0:10:59 > 0:11:02I think you'll be giving me that free book some day.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08And the triangles learned that they needed circles
0:11:08 > 0:11:10to remind them of wholeness.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13And the circles learned that they needed triangles
0:11:13 > 0:11:17to remind them of pointiness, and they all lived happily ever before,
0:11:17 > 0:11:21which is the same as after, just in reverse.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34# Every day when you're walking down the street
0:11:34 > 0:11:39# And everybody that you meet has an original point of view
0:11:40 > 0:11:43# And I say hey, hey!
0:11:43 > 0:11:45# What a wonderful kind of day
0:11:45 > 0:11:48# What a wonderful kind of day Hey! #
