0:01:26 > 0:01:28Planting and watering and...

0:01:28 > 0:01:32Buster! I thought you said you wanted to direct this scene?

0:01:32 > 0:01:34I do!

0:01:34 > 0:01:36Then keep the camera on me!

0:01:36 > 0:01:37OK, OK!

0:01:51 > 0:01:53- Whoo-hoo!- Buster!

0:01:54 > 0:01:56You just knocked the camera over!

0:01:56 > 0:01:58I knew I shouldn't have let you do this.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Sorry, it's just that I've never won this game before.

0:02:06 > 0:02:07Hmm-hmm.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10ICE-CREAM VAN TINKLES

0:02:10 > 0:02:11Ice cream!

0:02:14 > 0:02:17Sorry about that, our director seems to be a little distracted today.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19Let's just start the show.

0:02:51 > 0:02:55Reporting for duties, sir. What happened?

0:02:55 > 0:02:59At ease, Baxter... and hand me that towel!

0:03:00 > 0:03:02You wanted to see me "on the double"?

0:03:02 > 0:03:04That's right, son.

0:03:04 > 0:03:05It's an emergency.

0:03:05 > 0:03:09And you're the only one I know who's up to the task.

0:03:09 > 0:03:10Yes, sir!

0:03:10 > 0:03:12DOOR OPENS

0:03:12 > 0:03:13I mean, I am?

0:03:16 > 0:03:20- Fritz wants me to take care of the community garden.- I thought you

0:03:20 > 0:03:21were taking care of it.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25Yeah, ever since Fritz went into the retirement home.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28I was just helping to take care of it. Fritz was still in charge.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32- So, why can't he continue to do it? - He broke his ankle and there's

0:03:32 > 0:03:36no-one else who likes the garden, so now I'll be in charge.

0:03:40 > 0:03:41What?

0:03:41 > 0:03:43You?!

0:03:43 > 0:03:45In charge?!

0:03:45 > 0:03:50- Of the whole garden?- Why not? I've learned lots about gardening since

0:03:50 > 0:03:55I started helping out. I'll just have a little more responsibility.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58Oh, yeah...responsibility!

0:04:01 > 0:04:03Argh!

0:04:07 > 0:04:09Ice cream!

0:04:14 > 0:04:15Mmm.

0:04:18 > 0:04:19Mmm!

0:04:26 > 0:04:28GIGGLES

0:04:30 > 0:04:32OK, weeds...

0:04:32 > 0:04:34HE BURPS

0:04:34 > 0:04:36..here I come.

0:04:38 > 0:04:39Aah!

0:04:39 > 0:04:41Argh!

0:04:44 > 0:04:45Help!

0:04:47 > 0:04:50I'm sorry. It was just one ice pop.

0:04:50 > 0:04:51COUGHS

0:04:51 > 0:04:53It was SIX ice pops!

0:04:55 > 0:04:58OK, OK, six. But I ate them really fast.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Fritz would've never let this happen!

0:05:01 > 0:05:05Yeah, he was responsible.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08Aaah!

0:05:08 > 0:05:10Aah! Aah!

0:05:26 > 0:05:29Fritz, you can't put me in charge of the garden!

0:05:31 > 0:05:33I'll just mess it all up!

0:05:33 > 0:05:36No, too frantic.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39Fritz, it's a great honour,

0:05:39 > 0:05:42and I'm really grateful, but...

0:05:42 > 0:05:43Hi, Mr Sloane.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45Morning, Buster!

0:05:47 > 0:05:50..but I'm just not responsible enough.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52You should get someone...

0:05:52 > 0:05:54- STRIMMER WHIRS - Aah!

0:06:02 > 0:06:05What are you doing?

0:06:05 > 0:06:07Getting rid of these awful plants.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10Awful plants? But those are zucchini.

0:06:10 > 0:06:15It was OK when Fritz was taking care of this place.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Now it'll become an eyesore.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20Some folks in the neighbourhood thought it would look better

0:06:20 > 0:06:22if we just paved it over with concrete.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25You want to turn the garden into that?

0:06:25 > 0:06:29I suppose we could paint it green if you like?

0:06:29 > 0:06:30STRIMMER WHIRS

0:06:32 > 0:06:35How did you get him to stop?

0:06:35 > 0:06:38I called Fritz, and he convinced Mr Sloane to give me a chance.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40So now you're really in charge?

0:06:40 > 0:06:44Uh-huh. The garden can stay as long as I keep it in good shape.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46Wow.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50I know. It'll be a lot of work, but I have to at least try.

0:06:50 > 0:06:54- So you'll come to baseball practice when you're done, right?- OK.

0:06:56 > 0:06:57When's he coming?

0:06:57 > 0:07:00He knows there's not enough of us for a game without him.

0:07:00 > 0:07:04He said he was coming after he finished in the garden.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07Just like Buster! So irresponsible.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09I give him a week.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11Two days!

0:07:28 > 0:07:29Aah!

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Hmm-hmm!

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Phew!

0:07:40 > 0:07:42HE YAWNS

0:07:42 > 0:07:43I'll be back in a bit.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46I've got some weeding to do.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01I give him a month.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04Yeah. A month, tops.

0:08:06 > 0:08:11If he makes it all the way to summer, I'll eat my party dress.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24Ah-ha!

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Dead leaf!

0:08:29 > 0:08:33Oh, honey, that garden is looking so terrific now.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35I'm so proud of you.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37Thanks, Mom.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39So tonight, could you just pull out the clothes

0:08:39 > 0:08:42- you want to take on vacation?- OK.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45What?! Vacation!

0:08:45 > 0:08:50- We're going camping, remember? - Oh. Yeah. Right.

0:08:50 > 0:08:57- What's wrong? You love camping. - Yeah, but what about the garden?

0:08:57 > 0:09:01Well, someone can certainly water it for two weeks, don't you think?

0:09:04 > 0:09:05You want US to water it?

0:09:05 > 0:09:07Every single day?

0:09:07 > 0:09:09We don't even live there!

0:09:09 > 0:09:13I know. But I have no-one else to turn to. Please?

0:09:13 > 0:09:15I promise I'll return the favour.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17Like by showing up for a game once in a while?

0:09:17 > 0:09:20Yeah, and being responsible to your friends?

0:09:20 > 0:09:22Come on, guys, give him a break.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Of course we'll do it.

0:09:25 > 0:09:29- OK, if you promise to come to the next game after you get back.- Yeah!

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Just don't let us down.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35Oh! Thanks, guys.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Well I'll be...

0:09:43 > 0:09:46It was only two weeks!

0:09:47 > 0:09:49I DID water it.

0:09:49 > 0:09:50So did I.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53I NEVER renege on a promise!

0:09:53 > 0:09:57Then why are all the plants dead?

0:09:59 > 0:10:03OK, so maybe I didn't water it every SINGLE day.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06Yeah. I had a conflict last week so I asked Muffy,

0:10:06 > 0:10:08and she said she'd watered for me Tuesday.

0:10:08 > 0:10:12Yeah. So I asked Arthur to do it, and he said "OK."

0:10:12 > 0:10:14I thought that was Wednesday.

0:10:14 > 0:10:19No. You called and asked ME to do it on Wednesday, remember?

0:10:19 > 0:10:22I thought you went to Animal World with your cousins on Wednesday.

0:10:22 > 0:10:26Well, yeah. But I thought if we missed one day of watering,

0:10:26 > 0:10:27it wouldn't be that big a deal.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29HE SIGHS

0:10:31 > 0:10:35Did any of you water it? Ever?

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Buster? Have you done your homework yet?

0:10:44 > 0:10:46VIDEO GAME BLEEPS

0:10:46 > 0:10:50Well, you know the rules about video games. Homework first!

0:10:50 > 0:10:54I don't understand. You were so good about doing your homework

0:10:54 > 0:10:57when you were taking care of the garden. But now?

0:10:57 > 0:10:59What's the point?

0:10:59 > 0:11:00The point?

0:11:00 > 0:11:02I'm irresponsible.

0:11:02 > 0:11:06No, you're not. Look what you did for that garden.

0:11:06 > 0:11:09Yeah, and look at it now.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12That wasn't YOUR fault!

0:11:12 > 0:11:16Yes, it was. Fritz put ME in charge of the garden,

0:11:16 > 0:11:18and my friends didn't water it.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21So I'm the one who's irresponsible.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25I always have been, and I always will be.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27VIDEO GAME BLEEPS

0:11:27 > 0:11:29Woo. I won.

0:11:31 > 0:11:32STRIMMER WHIRS

0:11:32 > 0:11:36That must be Mr Sloane mowing it all down now. Ah!

0:11:36 > 0:11:38I can't take it any more!

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Stop! Don't touch those plants!

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Please! Give me another chance!

0:11:46 > 0:11:48I promise I'll...

0:11:48 > 0:11:50- Mr Read?- Hey, Buster.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52Wha...?

0:11:52 > 0:11:55You guys? What are you doing?

0:11:55 > 0:11:58We're just taking out the dead stuff so we can start replanting.

0:11:58 > 0:12:02We realised if you could change and become responsible for something,

0:12:02 > 0:12:03then we should too.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06'"Private Baxter, just writing a note

0:12:06 > 0:12:08'"to find out how the garden's doing.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11'"I've been out of town with my family this month,

0:12:11 > 0:12:15'"but figured you were responsible enough

0:12:15 > 0:12:17'"to keep that garden in shape without me.

0:12:17 > 0:12:18'"Was I right?'"

0:12:20 > 0:12:24Yep, you were right, Fritz. You were right.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26Ahem!

0:12:26 > 0:12:27Thanks.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35# Every day when you're walkin' down the street

0:12:35 > 0:12:39# And everybody that you meet

0:12:39 > 0:12:41# Has an original point of view

0:12:42 > 0:12:45# And I say, hey!

0:12:45 > 0:12:50# What a wonderful kind of day, hey! # What a wonderful kind of day HEY! #
