# Every day when you're walkin' down the street

0:00:010:00:04

# Everybody that you meet

0:00:040:00:07

# Has an original point of view

0:00:070:00:10

-# And I say, hey!

-Hey!

0:00:100:00:12

# What a wonderful kind of day If we can learn to work and play

0:00:120:00:17

# And get along with each other

0:00:170:00:20

# You gotta listen to your heart Listen to the beat

0:00:210:00:24

# Listen to the rhythm The rhythm of the street

0:00:240:00:26

# Open up your eyes! Open up your ears!

0:00:260:00:28

# Get together and make things better by working together

0:00:280:00:32

# It's a simple message And it comes from the heart

0:00:320:00:37

# Oh, believe in yourself For that's the place to start

0:00:370:00:41

-# And I say, hey!

-Hey!

-What a wonderful kind of day

0:00:410:00:46

# If we can learn to work and play And get along with each other

0:00:460:00:51

# What a wonderful kind of day, hey! What a wonderful kind of day, HEY! #

0:00:510:00:56

Hey, DW!

0:00:560:00:58

-Hey!

-Whoa!

0:01:000:01:01

CRASH!

0:01:010:01:03

Wouldn't it be great to have your own country?

0:01:070:01:09

You could eat whatever you wanted.

0:01:090:01:11

You could play whenever you felt like it.

0:01:140:01:16

AEROPLANE NOISE

0:01:190:01:21

ARTHUR GASPS

0:01:210:01:22

PLANE CRASHES

0:01:220:01:23

You could even do all those things your parents tell you not to do.

0:01:240:01:28

HE LAUGHS

0:01:360:01:38

The citizenry await your greatness, Mr President.

0:01:400:01:45

ARTHUR SIGHS

0:01:450:01:46

OK.

0:01:460:01:48

CROWD CHANT: Arthur, Arthur, Arthur...

0:01:490:01:55

But would it really be a country...

0:01:550:01:57

TAPE-RECORDED CROWD CHANT: Arthur, Arthur, Arthur...

0:01:570:02:02

..if you were the only citizen?

0:02:030:02:05

All: All hail Kidonia!

0:02:080:02:11

Hey, Dad, going to the park with some friends. Be back by lunchtime.

0:02:150:02:18

Whoa, slow down. You were going to help me with the yard work, remember?

0:02:180:02:22

Aw!

0:02:220:02:23

OK, shrubs all watered! I'll be back in...

0:02:270:02:29

Arthur, did you clean your room?

0:02:290:02:31

Aw!

0:02:310:02:32

Um...it's clean...kind of...

0:02:330:02:36

Aw!

0:02:400:02:42

Huh, finally.

0:02:490:02:50

Arthur!

0:02:500:02:52

You said you'd help me build the Fairy Mary Moo Cow Cookie Castle...

0:02:520:02:55

remember?

0:02:550:02:56

Oh, yeah, sorry. I don't have time. Maybe tomorrow?

0:02:560:03:01

Mom!

0:03:010:03:02

Arthur's breaking his promise!

0:03:020:03:05

Aw!

0:03:060:03:08

It was 500 pieces...

0:03:100:03:12

Not including the Fairy Mary Moo Cow Cookie Carriage!

0:03:120:03:16

At least you didn't have to empty the cat box...twice.

0:03:160:03:19

Never feed your cat leftover Chinese food.

0:03:190:03:22

I spent my morning defragging my parents' hard drive.

0:03:220:03:25

I don't know what that is, but it sounds terrible!

0:03:250:03:28

Why do parents make us do all these chores?

0:03:280:03:31

It's like they don't want us to have fun.

0:03:310:03:33

If I had my own country, it would be against the law to give kids chores.

0:03:330:03:37

Too bad you can't have your own country.

0:03:370:03:39

Why can't we?

0:03:410:03:42

Uh...because you can't just declare your independence

0:03:420:03:44

-and call yourself a country.

-Actually, you can.

0:03:440:03:48

There are a lot of tiny countries in the world.

0:03:480:03:50

There's even one called Sealand -

0:03:500:03:52

that's just a platform in the Atlantic Ocean.

0:03:520:03:55

Friends, young people, classmates, by the power invested in...

0:03:550:04:00

this baseball...

0:04:000:04:01

I declare us all citizens of Kid...

0:04:010:04:06

onia.

0:04:060:04:07

ALL: All hail Kidonia!

0:04:070:04:10

# Oh, dear Kidonia

0:04:150:04:18

# I pledge my loyalty

0:04:180:04:21

# Where kids have broke the chains of parental tyranny

0:04:210:04:28

# Where chores are no more

0:04:280:04:32

# And fun is guaranteed

0:04:320:04:35

# All hail Kidonia

0:04:350:04:39

# Land where kids are free. #

0:04:390:04:45

OK, we have a flag, a Latin slogan, a national anthem

0:04:450:04:48

and traditional Kidonian hats.

0:04:480:04:50

What now?

0:04:500:04:51

We should have a constitution so people know what we stand for.

0:04:510:04:55

Good idea!

0:04:550:04:56

Here's something...

0:04:580:04:59

No rules, no laws, no chores.

0:04:590:05:02

All in favour?

0:05:020:05:03

ALL: Aye!

0:05:030:05:05

Any other ideas for the constitution?

0:05:050:05:07

That one covers all the ones I can think of.

0:05:110:05:13

It's brilliantly concise.

0:05:130:05:15

I think I'll put my socks on my ears.

0:05:150:05:18

Why?

0:05:180:05:19

Because...I can!

0:05:190:05:22

I love this country!

0:05:220:05:23

-Arthur, will you help me clear?

-Sorry, Dad.

0:05:260:05:29

I'm a citizen of Kidonia now,

0:05:290:05:31

and we don't do chores or follow any rules.

0:05:310:05:33

It's in our constitution.

0:05:330:05:34

Kidonia?! What's that?

0:05:340:05:36

A new country I made with Buster, Brain and Francine.

0:05:360:05:40

Here's my passport.

0:05:400:05:41

I see!

0:05:430:05:44

Well, we have a tradition in THIS country.

0:05:440:05:47

If you don't help clear, you don't get dessert.

0:05:470:05:50

It goes against everything I believe in.

0:05:500:05:52

Huh?!

0:05:520:05:54

Ohh...

0:05:540:05:56

But I'll do it just this once.

0:05:560:05:59

I have my own country, too.

0:05:590:06:01

DW-land. We're not allowed to eat broccoli.

0:06:010:06:05

Nice try, DW.

0:06:050:06:07

It didn't work for me, either!

0:06:150:06:16

I told my mom that it was against my principles,

0:06:160:06:19

but she still made me empty out my food cabinet.

0:06:190:06:22

All I have left now is Yamlet, Prince of Tubers.

0:06:220:06:26

Life is so much better back home in Kidonia.

0:06:260:06:29

Hey, why don't we spend the night there on Saturday?

0:06:290:06:32

That's a great idea!

0:06:320:06:34

I'll bring snacks, Brain can bring ice cream -

0:06:340:06:37

it'll be a national holiday!

0:06:370:06:39

HE YAWNS

0:06:390:06:40

-Well, good night, Citizen Reed.

-Good night, Citizen Baxter.

0:06:400:06:45

It's Kidonian money. My friend Brain made it.

0:06:480:06:51

See, it works like a coupon. Each bill is worth one favour.

0:06:510:06:55

In this case, you get...

0:06:550:06:58

15 minutes of free advice.

0:06:580:07:01

Ask away, my friend.

0:07:010:07:03

HE GASPS

0:07:060:07:07

I never said you could use Kiddies outside of Kidonia!

0:07:090:07:12

Then what good are they? There's nothing to buy in Kidonia!

0:07:120:07:16

I'll sell you something.

0:07:160:07:17

I was going to give them to you tonight at the sleepover,

0:07:170:07:19

but you can have 'em now.

0:07:190:07:20

Air fresheners? What am I supposed to do with these?

0:07:200:07:23

Hang one on each ear.

0:07:230:07:25

Your socks don't bother me when they're on your feet,

0:07:250:07:27

-but when they're on your head, they stink up the country!

-Tough!

0:07:270:07:31

Read the constitution. I can do whatever I want in Kidonia.

0:07:310:07:35

But those socks really smell.

0:07:350:07:36

Well, we'll just see what the High Court says about this tonight.

0:07:360:07:40

-There IS no High Court!

-There is now! I just made it.

0:07:400:07:44

Good day to you both.

0:07:450:07:47

We hope to see you again, Mr Reed. Safe travels.

0:07:500:07:53

Thank you. You have a beautiful country.

0:07:530:07:56

You'd better send me a postcard!

0:07:580:08:00

# All hail Kidonia

0:08:050:08:09

# Land where kids are free. #

0:08:090:08:12

Hey, let's stay up all night!

0:08:140:08:16

-You know why?

-ALL: Because we can! Woo-hoo!

0:08:160:08:20

-Yeah!

-Kidonia!

-Yeah!

0:08:200:08:22

Huh?

0:08:240:08:25

Where are you going?

0:08:280:08:30

Home. I mean, my real home.

0:08:300:08:32

I'm not living in a country where a quarter of the population

0:08:320:08:35

behaves LIKE PIGS!

0:08:350:08:36

You're just jealous because my ears are nice and warm!

0:08:370:08:42

I formally renounce my citizenship.

0:08:420:08:44

Good luck. You're going to need it!

0:08:440:08:46

I would have brought more food

0:08:520:08:53

-if a certain someone hadn't given me phoney money.

-It's not phoney!

0:08:530:08:58

Kiddies are worth something as long as you spend them in Kidonia.

0:08:580:09:02

Here, I'll pay you for my share of the pretzel.

0:09:020:09:04

For...a free word problem?! Forget it!

0:09:060:09:11

That's a bargain! Do you know how hard it is to make one of those up?

0:09:110:09:15

Why don't why just split the pretzel evenly three ways?

0:09:150:09:18

Um... That wasn't supposed to happen.

0:09:210:09:23

Who gets that piece?

0:09:270:09:28

We'll settle it the Kidonian way -

0:09:280:09:30

through mind-reading.

0:09:300:09:32

OK, who can guess what I'm thinking right now?

0:09:320:09:35

Mind-reading is impossible.

0:09:350:09:37

It goes against the laws of physics.

0:09:370:09:39

Maybe, but there ARE no laws here. And that wasn't what I was thinking.

0:09:390:09:43

Well?

0:09:430:09:45

I have no idea!

0:09:450:09:46

Aliens? Pizza?

0:09:460:09:48

Aliens eating pizza?

0:09:480:09:50

BUSTER GASPS

0:09:500:09:51

Aww. Well played, my friend. Well played.

0:09:510:09:55

Our population is dwindling.

0:10:100:10:12

I'm hungry. And chilly.

0:10:150:10:18

Maybe having our own country wasn't such a good idea.

0:10:180:10:21

What do you mean?! It's a great idea!

0:10:210:10:24

Where else can you spill a whole bottle of apple juice

0:10:240:10:27

and not get scolded by anyone?

0:10:270:10:29

Is that why there are so many ants in here?

0:10:320:10:34

Could be.

0:10:340:10:36

Well, why didn't you clean it up?!

0:10:360:10:38

Because I didn't have to.

0:10:380:10:39

-Read the consti...

-I don't have to read the constitution!

0:10:390:10:42

I wrote the constitution!

0:10:420:10:45

And now I'm adding something to it.

0:10:450:10:47

"He who spills something cleans it up."

0:10:470:10:51

You know, Kidonia used to be a place

0:10:510:10:53

where a kid could do whatever he wanted.

0:10:530:10:55

Now it's just like everywhere else.

0:10:550:10:57

Goodbye, Citizen Reed. I'm moving to Baxtervania.

0:10:570:11:01

HE GROANS

0:11:030:11:04

Hi, honey. How are things back in Kidonia?

0:11:070:11:10

OK, I guess.

0:11:100:11:11

Actually, there IS no Kidonia any more. Everyone left.

0:11:110:11:16

Would it be OK if I...stayed here?

0:11:170:11:20

Of course, you can stay as long as you like!

0:11:200:11:23

Or at least until you turn 30.

0:11:230:11:25

But you'll have to follow some rules and do some chores.

0:11:270:11:32

Deal.

0:11:320:11:34

Oh, and since DW couldn't have her own country,

0:11:340:11:37

I allowed her to be head of security for this one.

0:11:370:11:39

HE GASPS

0:11:390:11:40

I'm going to have to see everything in these bags, sir.

0:11:400:11:43

Passport, please.

0:11:430:11:45

If everything checks out, you'll be X-rayed, then Y-rayed,

0:11:450:11:49

and, finally, Q-rayed.

0:11:490:11:51

Right this way, please.

0:11:510:11:53

Uh, is this going to take long?

0:11:530:11:55

Very.
