0:00:59 > 0:01:02Hey, TW!
0:01:02 > 0:01:05- HEY!- Aa-rr-gh!
0:01:10 > 0:01:15That's my favourite book! I wanna save it!
0:01:15 > 0:01:21TW's funny. If she had room, she'd save EVERYTHING!
0:01:21 > 0:01:26Last fall, she saved all the acorns she could find.
0:01:28 > 0:01:33I hope you didn't crack any of my acorns!
0:01:33 > 0:01:40She even saved a snowball from last winter. It's in the freezer.
0:01:40 > 0:01:46- DW, please close the freezer. Your snowball's OK.- I was just checking.
0:01:47 > 0:01:53'Faster and more annoying than a mosquito - it's Super Sister!'
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Maybe I'm dreaming.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11OW! ..No, I'm awake!
0:02:14 > 0:02:19AA-RR-GG-HH!
0:02:19 > 0:02:23What's wrong? What are you doing?
0:02:23 > 0:02:27My snowball's gone!
0:02:29 > 0:02:34Wait, wait, hold on. It must be in there somewhere.
0:02:36 > 0:02:42No! The most important thing I ever owned is GONE!
0:02:42 > 0:02:50- DW, it was just a snowball!- Not JUST a snowball. Don't you remember?
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Hold it! No snowballs in the house!
0:03:31 > 0:03:38- I wanna freeze it.- Why?- So it's a reminder of the best day of my life.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41So can I?
0:03:42 > 0:03:47OK. Put it on a plate so it doesn't stick.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56- Yippee!- Quack-quack!
0:03:57 > 0:04:03'Even in the summertime, I checked on it and it was always there!'
0:04:03 > 0:04:07And... And now it's GONE!
0:04:07 > 0:04:14- I don't know who would have taken your snowball.- I bet Arthur knows!
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Steady. ..Easy does it!
0:04:17 > 0:04:22- DW, what are you looking for? - CRASH!
0:04:22 > 0:04:28- You know!- Is something missing? - You wanna know what's missing?
0:04:28 > 0:04:31You wanna know what's MISSING?
0:04:31 > 0:04:32YES!
0:04:33 > 0:04:35AW-W!
0:04:35 > 0:04:42- My snowball!- Snowball?- She had one in the freezer since last winter.
0:04:42 > 0:04:47- SOBBING: - It wasn't just some old snowball!
0:04:47 > 0:04:49When did you last see it?
0:04:49 > 0:04:55This calls for detective work. Take me to the crime scene.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59(It was in the freezer, Buster!)
0:04:59 > 0:05:04When did you last see the snowball, DW?
0:05:04 > 0:05:09- I- asked that ages ago! - I last saw it yesterday lunchtime.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13Has anything unusual happened since then?
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Hmm. ..Yes!
0:05:16 > 0:05:21'Grandma Thora and Mrs MacGrady stopped by after bingo.'
0:05:21 > 0:05:25Hello, everybody. Hello, dear.
0:05:25 > 0:05:30- Grandma! - DW! My favourite grandchild!
0:05:30 > 0:05:33Oh, hi, Arthur.
0:05:33 > 0:05:38- SNIFFS LOUDLY - Hi, Grandma.
0:05:38 > 0:05:45DW, you're so wonderful! And how's your snowball?
0:05:45 > 0:05:48'Hold it! Hold it!'
0:05:48 > 0:05:51That's not what really happened.
0:05:51 > 0:05:57- She didn't know about the snowball. - Well...- I'll tell you what happened.
0:05:57 > 0:06:03Hello, children! ..Arthur! You certainly have grown!
0:06:03 > 0:06:08- Hello, Grandma!- Look at me! Look at me! Look at me!
0:06:08 > 0:06:15- DW, you're annoying Grandma. - No, of course she's not!
0:06:15 > 0:06:20(Get me an aspirin. She's given me a headache!)
0:06:20 > 0:06:25- Grandma didn't say that! - I could tell she was thinking it.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27Hello! >
0:06:27 > 0:06:33- Hello, Grandma. How are YOU today? - BLOWS RASPBERRY
0:06:33 > 0:06:39Grandma, we're trying to remember what happened when you came over.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41- I- remember.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45CHILDREN WHOOP AND YELL
0:06:50 > 0:06:56UPROAR CONTINUES Arthur! DW! Please!
0:06:56 > 0:07:02Pardon me, dear, but I remember it differently.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05- Hello, Grandma.- Hello, Grandma.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08TOGETHER: We love you!
0:07:08 > 0:07:12Would you ladies like some ice cream?
0:07:12 > 0:07:17That's right! Mom went into the freezer for ice cream.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Was the snowball there?
0:07:20 > 0:07:23I didn't notice. ..Hmm.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Wait! That dog was in the kitchen!
0:07:29 > 0:07:34- You think Pal took your snowball? - It's possible.
0:08:12 > 0:08:18- ..Then he jumped down.- Dogs can't open umbrellas.- Maybe he learned.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21What else does he do all day?
0:08:25 > 0:08:29Buster and I were here yesterday too.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33'Arthur's mom invited us for ice cream.'
0:08:33 > 0:08:38I wish MY grandchildren were more like Francine.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42'But Buster was a P-I-G.'
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Burp!
0:08:44 > 0:08:47No ice cream left!
0:08:47 > 0:08:52- There's more in the freezer. - I'll get it!
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Mmm!
0:09:02 > 0:09:05You're not writing, Buster.
0:09:05 > 0:09:11Because that never happened! We were all having ice cream...
0:09:11 > 0:09:14..And the other snake says,
0:09:14 > 0:09:17"I'm your other end!"
0:09:26 > 0:09:32Remind me to tell Mr Haney to put you ahead a grade, Buster.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37You gave me warm soda. Thanks a lot(!)
0:09:37 > 0:09:43- I'll gladly get an ice cube for you. - He's so nice!
0:09:44 > 0:09:48I can get my own ice cube.
0:09:48 > 0:09:52Darn it! There isn't any ice here.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55Maybe this is big enough to cool it.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00Oh, that is so untrue!
0:10:00 > 0:10:06Wait! What were you guys doing while I played piano for grandma?
0:10:09 > 0:10:11GIGGLES
0:10:11 > 0:10:17Let's see how long it takes DW's snowball to melt in the sun!
0:10:26 > 0:10:31- WE weren't there when Arthur did it! - (Hey!) I didn't do it!
0:10:31 > 0:10:34Somebody did. I want a confession!
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Confess! Confess!
0:10:39 > 0:10:45I've reached a conclusion from the eyewitness accounts.
0:10:45 > 0:10:50While we were busy, a space alien materialised.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58In a search for samples of food,
0:10:58 > 0:11:04he took the snowball and nothing else, because he left in a hurry.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10Huh?!
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Who left that freezer door open?
0:11:14 > 0:11:17It's the only logical answer.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20That's crazy!
0:11:20 > 0:11:22One of you took my snowball!
0:11:22 > 0:11:26- Why don't you confess, Buster?- Yeah!
0:11:26 > 0:11:30- Me? Why don't you?! - It was probably Arthur.- Me?
0:11:30 > 0:11:35- How could you think that? - Whoever did it should admit it.
0:11:35 > 0:11:40You're all in on it. You're trying to break a child's heart.
0:11:42 > 0:11:48Someone will get their feelings hurt if everyone doesn't calm down.
0:11:48 > 0:11:49Look outside!
0:11:49 > 0:11:53It's snowing!
0:11:53 > 0:11:58- First snow of the year.- Big deal. It'll never be the same.
0:11:58 > 0:12:03DW, we'll have just as much fun as last year. Maybe more.
0:12:03 > 0:12:09- Promise?- Yeah. I do.- I just wish I knew what happened to it.
0:12:13 > 0:12:18I told you they'd never figure it out!
0:12:18 > 0:12:23So this is what they eat! We've got to get the recipe!
0:12:30 > 0:12:36I have great friends. The day I met Buster was unforgettable.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42- Hi! I'm Buster.- My name's Arthur.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Hi.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Well, see you.
0:12:49 > 0:12:54And being on Francine's team is the best!
0:12:54 > 0:12:57GRR!
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Arthur!
0:13:02 > 0:13:06Because you never lose.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Arthur, you lose.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26The Great Wall Of China is 1,500 miles long.
0:13:26 > 0:13:32- It was built over 2,000 years ago and still stands today.- Wow!
0:13:32 > 0:13:37- That's even older than the cafeteria hot dogs.- H-hmm!
0:13:37 > 0:13:41The Appian Way led from Rome to Greece.
0:13:41 > 0:13:46It was built in 312BC. It's still in use today.
0:13:46 > 0:13:52We're going to study and report on ancient civilisations.
0:13:52 > 0:13:57- The team to report on Rome - Arthur, Francine and Buster.- Great!
0:13:57 > 0:13:59Great!
0:13:59 > 0:14:05- How should we do our report?- We write it and read it to the class.
0:14:05 > 0:14:09No! We want to be best in the class.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13- WE shouldn't read it -- I- should!
0:14:13 > 0:14:18- Maybe there's a more interesting way to do it.- Hmm!
0:14:18 > 0:14:21I mean...more creative.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28Guys! What if we write a song?
0:14:28 > 0:14:31# Ancient Rome
0:14:33 > 0:14:36# It's not like home
0:14:38 > 0:14:42# Co-o-o-l-o-sse-e-e-um... #
0:14:53 > 0:14:58- We could do a dance. - With THOSE feet?!
0:14:59 > 0:15:05- Let's make a video!- How do we make it look ancient?- I have an old coat.
0:15:08 > 0:15:13We need to show what Rome was like, AND be interesting.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17I've been waiting for this book.
0:15:20 > 0:15:26- That's it! Buster, you're a genius! - Aargh!- What do you mean?
0:15:26 > 0:15:29- We can do a comic book about Rome! - Yeah.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32Boy, my ideas are good!
0:15:35 > 0:15:40Arthur, do the first page. I'll do the second. Buster can do the third.
0:15:40 > 0:15:45It'll be the best history project EVER!
0:15:45 > 0:15:50What are we waiting for? Let's go home and do it!
0:15:56 > 0:16:00Yes! Brilliant! Oh, beauty!
0:16:12 > 0:16:15I don't know where to start.
0:16:15 > 0:16:21What's the most exciting thing about Ancient Rome?
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Who-o-o-o-o-oa!
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Bellissimo!
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Excuse me, mister...where am I?
0:16:41 > 0:16:46- What do you mean?! You in Rome, boss!- I am?!
0:16:50 > 0:16:53I must have travelled through time!
0:16:53 > 0:16:57I show you the secrets of Rome - five denarii.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00Huh?!
0:17:00 > 0:17:02I've got Roman money!
0:17:02 > 0:17:08Through this door is the Senate. Come on! Be quiet.
0:17:08 > 0:17:13I've gone back thousands of years to a strange country.
0:17:13 > 0:17:19If I ever get home, I'll have the best report in third-grade history!
0:17:19 > 0:17:22Who-o-o-oa!
0:17:25 > 0:17:27WHO-O-O-O-AH!
0:17:31 > 0:17:36I'm back, but now I know exactly what to draw!
0:17:38 > 0:17:42- I stayed up late finishing my page. - Me too.
0:17:44 > 0:17:51The Roman senators were worried. Then the emperor arrived. He said...
0:17:57 > 0:18:00The senators searched everywhere for the scroll.
0:18:09 > 0:18:15I'M gonna run this empire! ..Get 'em, boys!
0:18:18 > 0:18:24The bravest senator took out his bag of gumballs.
0:18:38 > 0:18:43DOGS BAY HELP!
0:18:43 > 0:18:49"The skeletons defeated, they chase the villain in a boat..."
0:18:49 > 0:18:53Wait up! Wait up! Let's go! Let's go!
0:19:05 > 0:19:07SCREAMING
0:19:10 > 0:19:15- That's how it ends?- That's just the first page. YOU did the second.
0:19:15 > 0:19:21Arthur, MY page is about the Olympics!
0:19:21 > 0:19:24CROWD CHEERING
0:19:26 > 0:19:32I quit! I quit! I give up! Agggh!
0:19:45 > 0:19:49- Hmm.- I'm done, guys! Here's MY page!
0:19:51 > 0:19:54That isn't a comic. It's a drawing.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58It's a splash panel, full of action.
0:19:58 > 0:20:04It's Sparatacus, defending the pizza from the soldiers in the horse.
0:20:04 > 0:20:11And that's Julius Caesar on a glider. There were no jets then.
0:20:11 > 0:20:16Hey...! YOUR pages aren't like MINE!
0:20:16 > 0:20:22- Remember, your history projects are due tomorrow.- BELL RINGS
0:20:22 > 0:20:25I have great expectations!
0:20:25 > 0:20:31- What a disaster! You guys have gotta make yours like mine!- Yours rots!
0:20:31 > 0:20:36Make yours like MINE - the FIRST page!
0:20:36 > 0:20:42Let's ask other people which is best, then you can copy MINE!
0:20:42 > 0:20:46I WILL and you'll be sorry!
0:20:46 > 0:20:50- No, YOU'LL be sorry! - No, YOU'LL be sorry!
0:20:52 > 0:20:58- What's THIS got to do with history? - It makes history interesting.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01But you didn't use any REAL history!
0:21:01 > 0:21:07Maybe not very much... None.
0:21:09 > 0:21:13It's great but tell me HOW great.
0:21:13 > 0:21:18The Olympics were in Greece, not Rome.
0:21:18 > 0:21:26Well, I'll change it to Rome. But the Romans banned the Olympics.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Didn't you do any research?
0:21:34 > 0:21:37We all have to meet right away!
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Buster, meeting at the tree house!
0:21:40 > 0:21:47- I should have done research!- A history project needs some history!
0:21:47 > 0:21:54- I guess I have to start all over. - We ALL have to start over!
0:21:54 > 0:21:58But there's no time. We'll all fail!
0:22:04 > 0:22:10- And you drew the Forum so well! - Do you think so?
0:22:10 > 0:22:13Your chariot race is really cool.
0:22:13 > 0:22:18So's Julius Caesar, even though he's flying!
0:22:18 > 0:22:25- It could have been great if we'd worked together!- Maybe we still can!
0:22:36 > 0:22:43"In 44BC, Julius Caesar was stabbed in the Roman Senate..."
0:22:43 > 0:22:50- Roman Emperor, General and historian. Like US!- The end!
0:22:50 > 0:22:53- APPLAUSE - Very good!
0:22:55 > 0:23:02- Who thought of drawing a poster together?- We all did.- Not at first!
0:23:02 > 0:23:09A good team effort. Although I doubt they had pizza delivery in Rome!
0:23:09 > 0:23:15- Next time, we'll know!- What time are we meeting at the Sugar Bowl?
0:23:15 > 0:23:21- I thought it was the park! - The movies!- WHAT?- Quiet, please!
0:23:21 > 0:23:24Next report!
0:23:24 > 0:23:30We're doing our report on Egypt as an interpretive dance.
0:23:30 > 0:23:36Mummies were embalmed and tightly wrapped in cloth.
0:23:36 > 0:23:41- (We agreed to go to the Sugar Bowl!) - < Mmmph!
0:23:43 > 0:23:49I don't care what you two do! I'LL be at the movies! >
