0:01:00 > 0:01:01- Hey!- Whoa!
0:01:01 > 0:01:03CRASH!
0:01:06 > 0:01:08This'll do the trick.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Mayonnaise? You're going to put mayonnaise on my head?!
0:01:11 > 0:01:12Sure.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15It's what your grandma used on me when I was a kid.
0:01:16 > 0:01:21Uh! That was when I had head lice. Not a good day.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25You ever noticed how it's easier to remember bad days than good days?
0:01:25 > 0:01:28Here are my top-five worst days ever.
0:01:28 > 0:01:33Number five, the day I was fired by my piano teacher for not practising.
0:01:34 > 0:01:40- Did you practise?- But I did practise. Kind of. A little.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46- Not really.- Goodbye, Arthur. You're fired.- Huh?!
0:01:47 > 0:01:50Number four, the time I ripped my pants in school
0:01:50 > 0:01:51and everyone saw my underwear.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54THEY LAUGH
0:01:54 > 0:01:57OK, we don't have to see any more of that one.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Number three, the time Buster left for his trip around the world.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02He was gone for a whole year.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08I bet I'll never find another tree house that can fly to outer space
0:02:08 > 0:02:11and go back in time and become invisible like that one.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16- It'll still be here when you get back.- Yeah.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22- Goodbye!- Goodbye, Arthur!
0:02:24 > 0:02:29Number two is actually a whole load of days put together.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31Huh?!
0:02:31 > 0:02:35You took my snowball! I know you did!
0:02:35 > 0:02:38Where did you hide it, snowball thief?
0:02:38 > 0:02:44I want a confession. Confess! Confess! Confess!
0:02:44 > 0:02:49But the number one all-time worst day ever was when... God! What?!
0:02:49 > 0:02:51That's not supposed to be on there!
0:02:51 > 0:02:52Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Isn't little Arthur cute(?)
0:02:55 > 0:02:58I think I may have just found a new worst day.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11HE SIGHS
0:03:11 > 0:03:14I think this might be one of the best days ever.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18I'll say. It IS pretty great.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22Although it might not make my list. We'll have to wait and see.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24You have a list?!
0:03:24 > 0:03:28Yeah, it's my list of top-ten best days ever. Don't you have one?
0:03:28 > 0:03:32- No.- I don't have a list. But I do have the best day ever.
0:03:32 > 0:03:33Let me guess.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37- When you joined the Tough Customers? - Of course not.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40It was after we got my baby sister from China.
0:03:40 > 0:03:41BABY CRIES
0:03:41 > 0:03:46'She cried a lot but there was one thing that could get her to stop.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49'The monkey face. It never failed.'
0:03:50 > 0:03:54TRADITIONAL CHINESE DANCE MUSIC
0:03:54 > 0:03:56SHE CRIES
0:03:58 > 0:04:01See, monkey? Like this.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04SHE GURGLES
0:04:04 > 0:04:06'I could have even had my own show!'
0:04:06 > 0:04:12'Ladies and gentlemen, Binky, the human pacifier.'
0:04:12 > 0:04:14BABY CRIES
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Ga-ga-ga-ga.
0:04:18 > 0:04:23It was like a super power and only I had it. And then she met Arthur.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26All of a sudden, the face didn't work any more.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28And only he could get it to stop crying.
0:04:28 > 0:04:34- It was like he had stolen my powers. - Arthur, how could you?- What?!
0:04:34 > 0:04:37That's ridiculous! I didn't steal anything.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39I'm not finished yet!
0:04:39 > 0:04:42'Then one night we were in a Chinese restaurant.'
0:04:47 > 0:04:53Well, all the Reads are here. Oh, no, she's awake. Don't cry.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Please, I can't take it!
0:04:55 > 0:04:58When Arthur's around, it's like I'm invisible.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00You'd probably rather have him from brother.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Hey, what did you do that for?!
0:05:03 > 0:05:06SHE GURGLES
0:05:06 > 0:05:07HE BLOWS A RASPBERRY
0:05:07 > 0:05:09SHE BLOWS A RASPBERRY
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
0:05:11 > 0:05:13Hey, Mei-Lin, do it again.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17HE BLOWS A RASPBERRY
0:05:17 > 0:05:19SHE BLOWS A RASPBERRY
0:05:19 > 0:05:21THEY LAUGH
0:05:22 > 0:05:24I taught her how to do that.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27So even though I couldn't always get her to stop crying,
0:05:27 > 0:05:29I realised I could teach her things.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33It was the first time I really felt like a big brother.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37Joining the Tough Customers was my SECOND-best day ever.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39What about you, Arthur?
0:05:39 > 0:05:44Me? Well, erm... It would have to be... Huh.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47- I'm not sure. I have to think about it. You go.- OK.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51It actually started out as one of the worst days of my life.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55It was when Fern invited me to read at that poetry reading.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59I was so nervous, but as long as I had Wally with me, I felt OK.
0:05:59 > 0:06:04Next will be a poem called The Bowl Of Fruit, read by George.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07'Then the unthinkable happened.'
0:06:07 > 0:06:08Huh?!
0:06:12 > 0:06:13Huh?! 'I didn't know what to do!
0:06:13 > 0:06:17'There was no way I'd be able to fix them in time.'
0:06:17 > 0:06:19It's all the comedy, kid. It takes a toll.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Just leave me here in the woodworking section.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25But I can't read my poem in front of those kids without you!
0:06:25 > 0:06:28You're going to have to. Look at me!
0:06:28 > 0:06:32Could I have a little furniture polish, please?
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Thanks, kid.
0:06:34 > 0:06:39Good night, world. Farewell, adieu. Sayonara.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42I had worked so hard on that poem
0:06:42 > 0:06:44but now I just didn't have the courage to read it.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Then you showed up, Arthur.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50We'd all like to get to know him...uh...you better.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53But how can we hear if you... he...Wally is always in the way?
0:06:53 > 0:06:56What if you ALL forget about me when I put him...
0:06:56 > 0:07:01- ..I mean me, away? I don't know, Arthur.- Just try it, George.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05- What's the worst that could happen? - 'So I took your advice.'
0:07:08 > 0:07:10An orange, an apple and a banana.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12This bowl of fruit doesn't come from a can, ah.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15It's real, it's fresh, it's good to eat, the stuff from the can
0:07:15 > 0:07:17is much too sweet. Thank you.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19APPLAUSE
0:07:19 > 0:07:24I did it. I really did it! Yahoo!
0:07:24 > 0:07:27From that moment on, I knew I didn't need Wally.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30You guys liked me for just being me.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- So why do you still carry him around?- Because I'm so much fun!
0:07:34 > 0:07:39Hey, why do bees hum? Cos they don't know the words! Get it?
0:07:39 > 0:07:43How about this one? Why did the king go to his dentist?
0:07:43 > 0:07:46To get his teeth crowned! Oh, I got a million of them.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Hey, know what happened when...?
0:07:48 > 0:07:51What IS my best day? Maybe it was that time I pulled
0:07:51 > 0:07:54the sword out of a stone at the medieval fair.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Later Mr Ratburn gave us a quiz on medieval history
0:08:02 > 0:08:04and I only got a B-.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07Hm, this is harder than I thought it would be. Huh?
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Didn't you hear us calling you?
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Wally has...taken a break.
0:08:12 > 0:08:13HE SQUIRMS
0:08:13 > 0:08:16It's your turn. What's YOUR best day ever?
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Oh, that's easy, it's... Um...
0:08:19 > 0:08:21HE COUGHS
0:08:21 > 0:08:23You go. Throw it to G.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26OK, mine was when you found my diary.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33- Really?! That's your best day ever? - Uh-huh.
0:08:33 > 0:08:34That diary is really important to me.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37I've written about almost everything that's happened to me
0:08:37 > 0:08:39since I came to Elwood City.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Hey, have any of you seen Sue Ellen? I think I found her diary.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50You didn't write about that time I almost ate a bug, did you?
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Or when I couldn't stop rhyming?
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- When I kept getting a bloody nose? - Hey, you'll never know.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59Because Arthur never even opened the diary.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- I bet he took a little peek. - I didn't, I swear.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04I just thought it was private.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Here you go, Sue Ellen. It's still private.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14From then on, I knew I had friends I could really trust.
0:09:14 > 0:09:19But I promise you'll find out what I wrote when I publish my memoirs.
0:09:19 > 0:09:20ALL: Huh?!
0:09:20 > 0:09:24OK, no more stallings. Spit it out! What's your best day ever?
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Well...
0:09:26 > 0:09:30I've been thinking really hard about it and the truth is, I just don't...
0:09:30 > 0:09:35Wait, hold that thought! I just remembered a brand-new one.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39- One that tops all the others. - This is going to be good.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43Well, I was in my bed one night and I couldn't get to sleep.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47'I was counting puffins, cos sheep never work for me for some reason.'
0:09:47 > 0:09:5145...46...47...
0:09:51 > 0:09:55'When all of a sudden, this strange light appeared in my window.'
0:09:56 > 0:09:59'It was a giant, glowing doughnut-shaped object.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01'Right there, outside my bedroom.
0:10:01 > 0:10:07'I was afraid, but I felt it was calling to me. So I ran downstairs.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10'Then I realised it wasn't just shaped like a doughnut,
0:10:10 > 0:10:12'it WAS a doughnut!'
0:10:13 > 0:10:16'Then the strawberry people came out.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19'They were a highly developed fruit-based life form...
0:10:19 > 0:10:23'who needed a new king. And they had chosen me.'
0:10:23 > 0:10:28Me! To rule over the planet Fruitopia for ever and all time.
0:10:28 > 0:10:33- Buster, are you sure this wasn't a dream?- Oh, those don't count?
0:10:33 > 0:10:36Well, then I guess I only have one best day.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38What is it?
0:10:38 > 0:10:40- When you and I played chequers. - That's it?!
0:10:40 > 0:10:43After I came back from my trip around the world.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Oh. Oh, yeah!
0:10:46 > 0:10:47I really missed you.
0:10:48 > 0:10:49And I also won.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52Well, you're the last one, Arthur.
0:10:52 > 0:10:53Let's hear it.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57- I don't have one.- What?! You don't have a best day?!
0:10:57 > 0:11:00No way! I've had a lot of really good days
0:11:00 > 0:11:03but there just isn't one that stands out from the rest.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06I mean, is it so important to have a best one?
0:11:06 > 0:11:09- No.- You'll probably have one some day.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Want to join the Tough Customers?
0:11:11 > 0:11:14- It's very exciting!- No, thanks.
0:11:14 > 0:11:20Hey! You know what's strange? Arthur was in all of OUR best days.
0:11:20 > 0:11:21That's true!
0:11:21 > 0:11:25In fact, without him, none of them would have happened!
0:11:25 > 0:11:28So, even if you don't have your own best day,
0:11:28 > 0:11:30you have a piece of all of ours.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Huh. That is pretty cool.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36You know what? I think I just found my best day.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39Today, just hanging out with you guys. It's perfect.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42THUNDER RUMBLES
0:11:42 > 0:11:44THUNDERCLAP
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Oh, man!
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Anybody bring an umbrella?
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Come on, Wally, back in the bag.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Sorry, Arthur. I guess this kind of ruins your best day.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56- THUNDER RUMBLES - Nah, it's still great.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Hey! Who wants to come to my house?
