0:00:01 > 0:00:06# Every day you walk down the street Everybody that you meet
0:00:06 > 0:00:11# Has an original point of view
0:00:11 > 0:00:13- # And I say, hey!- Hey!
0:00:13 > 0:00:18# What a wonderful kind of day If we can learn to work and play
0:00:18 > 0:00:21# And get along with each other
0:00:21 > 0:00:26# You gotta listen to your heart Listen to the beat
0:00:26 > 0:00:28# Listen to the rhythm of the street
0:00:28 > 0:00:33# Get together and make things better By working together
0:00:33 > 0:00:37# It's a simple message And it comes from the heart
0:00:37 > 0:00:43# Believe in yourself For that's the place to start
0:00:43 > 0:00:48- # And I say, hey!- Hey! - What a wonderful kind of day
0:00:48 > 0:00:53# If we can learn to work and play And get along with each other
0:00:53 > 0:00:59# What a wonderful kind of day - hey! What a wonderful kind of day - HEY! #
0:00:59 > 0:01:03- (DW!)- Hey!
0:01:07 > 0:01:13Have you ever had something really embarrassing happen to you?
0:01:13 > 0:01:17Once, I was in the school play and I forgot my lines!
0:01:17 > 0:01:24Don't forget me - broccoli - a great source of vitamins and minerals!
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Hi! I-I'm...
0:01:30 > 0:01:35..a protein, from the banana group. I mean...
0:01:35 > 0:01:41I'm a fruit from the chicken family... Oh-oh.
0:01:41 > 0:01:46Once, I told everyone I could play Rachmaninov, blindfolded.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Miss Krasny asked me to do it.
0:01:49 > 0:01:54What, no blindfold? ..Sorry. Can't do it.
0:01:54 > 0:02:00I'll never forget the time I had to take DW to my scout meeting.
0:02:00 > 0:02:04You're tying it wrong. Ask somebody for help.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Help.
0:02:07 > 0:02:13But the most embarrassing thing that ever happened to me didn't happen.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16It was just a dream.
0:02:22 > 0:02:276 times 8 is 48. Carry the 4.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30So the answer is...108!
0:02:30 > 0:02:35- Very good, Binky.- Yes! ..Oops.
0:02:41 > 0:02:46Here, Binky. Go to the office. Miss Tingly will sew them.
0:02:46 > 0:02:53Yes, Binky is wearing underwear, just like everyone else in this room.
0:03:18 > 0:03:23So, anything interesting happen at school today, Arthur?
0:03:23 > 0:03:27- Ha-ha-ha! - CHOKES
0:03:45 > 0:03:49Oh, no! I'll be late for school!
0:04:07 > 0:04:11I'm sorry I'm late, Mr Ratburn.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- My mom forgot to wake me... - LAUGHTER
0:04:18 > 0:04:24Being late is one thing, but not wearing any trousers is another!
0:04:33 > 0:04:36What a horrible dream!
0:04:43 > 0:04:46It was so scary. I hardly slept.
0:04:46 > 0:04:52Quiet down! Today, we'll be watching a film about microscopic organisms.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55CHILDREN: Wow! A movie!
0:04:55 > 0:05:02'Many life forms are so small they cannot be seen without a microscope.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06'The amoeba's a single-cell life form
0:05:06 > 0:05:10'found in moist dirt and stagnant water.
0:05:10 > 0:05:16'It reproduces by splitting into two in a process known as fission.'
0:05:16 > 0:05:20- Come back! Come back! - LAUGHTER
0:05:23 > 0:05:28- Come back... Come back... - (Wake up. The movie's over.)
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- Twice in one day!- That's not so bad.
0:05:35 > 0:05:42I dreamt about a planet of monsters shaped like tubes of toothpaste.
0:05:42 > 0:05:49- I couldn't brush for a week.- What will I do? I'm scared to go to bed.
0:05:49 > 0:05:55..I know! Don't sleep. Can't dream if you don't sleep.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01- Good night, Arthur.- Night, Dad.
0:06:12 > 0:06:17# On his farm he had some giraffes Ee-i ee-i O
0:06:17 > 0:06:20# With a... # Oh, forget it!
0:06:25 > 0:06:32I'll get you, Verminator ..After I take a little nap.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37Surrender, class. There is no escape.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45CHILDREN: NO! DON'T!
0:06:50 > 0:06:53FAINT SCREAMING
0:06:59 > 0:07:03No-one can help you now!
0:07:04 > 0:07:08Away from that blackboard, or I...
0:07:16 > 0:07:21- Must...find...my pants. - Yes, you'll want pants.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25Now, shake a leg or you'll be late.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29It even happens when I'm a superhero!
0:07:33 > 0:07:38- I'm doomed!- I know.- What?
0:07:38 > 0:07:45Go to sleep in your pants. That way, you won't forget to put them on.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Have you seen Nadine's teddy bear?
0:07:50 > 0:07:56It's pink, about this big... Why are you wearing your pants to bed?
0:07:56 > 0:08:01Er...because they're stiff. I'm breaking them in.
0:08:01 > 0:08:07Really? Cool! Mom was gonna wash my pants to make them softer,
0:08:07 > 0:08:11- but I'll wear them to bed instead. - No!
0:08:11 > 0:08:18In fact, my new boots hurt too. I think I'll sleep in those tonight.
0:08:21 > 0:08:27They're gonna call me names like Boxer-boy and Arty-no-pants!
0:08:27 > 0:08:34- I'll have to move school!- You won't go to school without your pants!
0:08:34 > 0:08:42- But I keep dreaming about it.- Not after today. I know how to cure you.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45I'll just hypnotise you.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50You are getting very sleepy.
0:08:50 > 0:08:54Ve-ery sleepy.
0:08:54 > 0:08:59You are not afraid of losing your pants.
0:09:02 > 0:09:07Arthur! Wake up. You were asleep. Did you have the dream?
0:09:07 > 0:09:13- No. I don't think so. - Then it worked! Just like TV!
0:09:13 > 0:09:16You cured me, Buster! I'm cured!
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Hey. How did I do that?
0:09:23 > 0:09:27Maybe your mom uses too much starch.
0:09:31 > 0:09:36Those pants need some fabric softener.
0:09:36 > 0:09:40- They're trying to eat me!- Arthur!
0:09:40 > 0:09:43You are now awake!
0:09:43 > 0:09:50Great(!) Now I'm afraid of being EATEN by my pants!
0:09:50 > 0:09:57- Promise you won't tell anyone about this.- Your secret is safe with me.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02WHISPERING Ssh.
0:10:03 > 0:10:07- What's so funny?- Ssh.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Hey, do you have your pants on?!
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Of course I do! Why shouldn't I?!
0:10:14 > 0:10:19You might have forgotten to wear them! Buster told us!
0:10:19 > 0:10:23What?! Well, it's not true!
0:10:24 > 0:10:29Hi. I'm glad you sat there. Buster told me about your dream.
0:10:29 > 0:10:35Apparently, you have a pathological fear of embarrassment.
0:10:35 > 0:10:39This can't be real! I'm dreaming!
0:10:39 > 0:10:42Buster! I'm having a nightmare!
0:10:42 > 0:10:48- Why do you think that?- Because everyone knows about my dream!
0:10:48 > 0:10:55- Not everyone. I just told a few kids.- How could you?! You promised!
0:10:55 > 0:10:59I needed some advice to help you.
0:10:59 > 0:11:05This is SO embarrassing! Everyone's laughing at me. That's what I... Ow!
0:11:05 > 0:11:09LOUD LAUGHTER
0:11:09 > 0:11:13Come on, Arthur. To the kitchen.
0:11:15 > 0:11:22I'm sorry, Arthur. I shouldn't have told anyone. I feel terrible.
0:11:22 > 0:11:28It's OK. You were trying to help. But now I have to change schools!
0:11:28 > 0:11:34Here they are, good as new. Even better. You were missing a button.
0:11:34 > 0:11:40- Thanks, Mrs MacGrady. Is there a back exit I could use?- No.
0:11:40 > 0:11:45There's an old saying. A banana without its peel is still a banana.
0:11:45 > 0:11:53- What does that mean?- It means people get embarrassed all the time.
0:11:53 > 0:11:59You're still Arthur - a smart, kind boy - with or without your pants.
0:11:59 > 0:12:06- It's been a week since I had an underwear nightmare.- That's great!
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Ripping your pants cured you.
0:12:09 > 0:12:15Now you'll know what to do if you ever have the nightmare. Let's go.
0:12:16 > 0:12:21Buster... I think you forgot something.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24Aagh!
0:12:25 > 0:12:29Here we go again.
0:12:30 > 0:12:36I want everyone to think about a special dream and then draw it.
0:12:38 > 0:12:43It's easy to figure out Buster's special dream.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Buster, have you done your homework?
0:12:51 > 0:12:58Oh, no! Robot! I almost forgot! Don't worry, master.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03Perfect!
0:13:03 > 0:13:06I know the dream Muffy would like.
0:13:06 > 0:13:11More tea? Gladly. I adore your dress.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Thank you. You have wonderful taste.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23But Francine's is the most obvious!
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Don't forget your lunch!
0:13:29 > 0:13:33Thanks, Dad! Giddy-up!
0:13:33 > 0:13:37MY bike is the most powerful!
0:13:37 > 0:13:42How many speeds does YOUR bike have?! MINE has 15!
0:13:42 > 0:13:47Well, MINE has half-horsepower assist.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50All I can say is... NEIGH!
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Hi, guys!
0:13:57 > 0:14:02A horse?! You've never even been on a horse!
0:14:02 > 0:14:06Just wait, Binky! Just you wait!
0:14:17 > 0:14:24- I did it! I saved 30 whole dollars! - Is it for something special?
0:14:24 > 0:14:28Riding lessons! You said you'd take me!
0:14:30 > 0:14:33..Right?
0:14:34 > 0:14:40- I'm never eating again! - We're not breaking our promise.
0:14:40 > 0:14:45- We want you to learn. - But the lessons are during the day!
0:14:45 > 0:14:51- We're at work and can't take you. - Hi, guys!
0:14:51 > 0:14:56BUT, if someone older - someone kind and generous - would take you,
0:14:56 > 0:14:59that would be different.
0:14:59 > 0:15:04- No way! - Whatever it is, I'm not doing it.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10- I can't believe I have to do this! - Quit moaning.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14- Mom and Dad are paying.- Exactly!
0:15:14 > 0:15:20There goes my new fall wardrobe! I could have gotten my ears pierced!
0:15:20 > 0:15:27At least I could have had some say in how they spent their savings!
0:15:27 > 0:15:34- It really makes me mad...- You have a hole in your pants!- Where?!
0:15:40 > 0:15:46- This place is creepy.- Are you here for the riding lessons?
0:15:47 > 0:15:53- I'm Stanley, the instructor. Ready for some fun?- Fun?
0:15:53 > 0:15:56We love fun. ..Right, Francine?
0:15:58 > 0:16:05- You can't have too much fun! That's what I say.- Relax! It's only a boy!
0:16:08 > 0:16:15- First, you have to meet the horses. This guy's Bronco.- Can we pet him?
0:16:15 > 0:16:20Sure. Just remember, horses spook easily. Be very gentle.
0:16:22 > 0:16:27It's just like velvet. Or a nice cotton/poly blend.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30- Nice and easy.- Let me try!
0:16:32 > 0:16:36Is he a wild stallion or something?!
0:16:36 > 0:16:39He's usually gentle. He's all yours.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44All set? Left hand on the reins...
0:16:44 > 0:16:50left foot in the stirrup...and up.
0:16:53 > 0:16:58It'll be a lot easier when you're taller.
0:17:00 > 0:17:05Wow! This is really, really...high!
0:17:05 > 0:17:09Hey! Whoa! How do you make him stop?
0:17:11 > 0:17:15Come on, Bronco. How do you make him go?
0:17:15 > 0:17:20- You have to show him who's boss. - That's right.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24Did you hear that? ..I'm the boss.
0:17:25 > 0:17:30Huh? OK! No pressure. Whatever.
0:17:35 > 0:17:40So how did it go? Are you the queen of the wild frontier?
0:17:40 > 0:17:46- I'm kind of tired. Can we talk about it tomorrow?- Sure, kiddo.
0:17:46 > 0:17:51It was really great! We mostly walked today,
0:17:51 > 0:17:56but Stanley might let me try to trot tomorrow.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00Are you scared, Francine?
0:18:00 > 0:18:03- No way!- Then open your eyes.
0:18:05 > 0:18:10- You won't fall. I'll be right here. OK?- OK!
0:18:12 > 0:18:15Stop! It's too fast!
0:18:15 > 0:18:19Next time, we'll take it slower.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23This is easy! I could do it for ever!
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Show-off.
0:18:25 > 0:18:30You've seen her demolish the competition,
0:18:30 > 0:18:37now the ruler of the ring - Francine Frensky, Olympic rider!
0:18:37 > 0:18:45All you folks who thought Francine was too bossy... Yes, Muffy - you.
0:18:45 > 0:18:51..or who didn't believe she could ride a horse... Binky!
0:18:51 > 0:18:54..eat your hearts out!
0:18:54 > 0:19:00Francine's in the Olympics, and you're not! But wait!
0:19:00 > 0:19:03Look! It's Francine's sister,
0:19:03 > 0:19:08who's not only older and taller, but a better rider!
0:19:08 > 0:19:16- Get out of here! This is MY dream! - Not any more. Let the games begin!
0:19:34 > 0:19:38Much better! Even Bronco's starting to notice!
0:19:38 > 0:19:43Really? Even though I dropped the reins?!
0:19:43 > 0:19:46That happens to everyone.
0:19:46 > 0:19:51OK, Bronco, back to the barn and no more leaves.
0:19:54 > 0:20:01If you're willing to work an hour each day, I'd give you free lessons.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05You're kidding! What about Francine?
0:20:05 > 0:20:12She's not at your level and we only offer this to our best students.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15Oh, no.
0:20:18 > 0:20:23- Redecorating? - I just don't like horses any more.
0:20:25 > 0:20:30You're quitting your lessons? You have another week to go!
0:20:30 > 0:20:35- I'd rather ride my bike. - Stanley said you were improving.
0:20:35 > 0:20:42Really? I thought he said I wasn't quite up to your level. Excuse me.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49Are you sure you don't want to come?
0:20:49 > 0:20:55I'm gonna hang out with my friends. I feel like having some fun.
0:20:55 > 0:21:01- What do YOU want to do? - I don't know. What do you wanna do?
0:21:01 > 0:21:08- I don't know. What do you wanna do? - I don't know.- What do YOU wanna do?
0:21:08 > 0:21:15Arthur! Mum says if you're not doing anything, we can play covered wagon.
0:21:15 > 0:21:21- Sorry! I have to sort out my socks. - < Socks? That sounds like fun!
0:21:21 > 0:21:24It'll be quicker with three of us!
0:21:24 > 0:21:29- I'll play horsey! - It's not called horsey!
0:21:29 > 0:21:34It's called seven days in the desert with wild horses who run free
0:21:34 > 0:21:38- and a little girl who...- STOP!
0:21:40 > 0:21:44- Aren't you gonna ask me to come?- No.
0:21:45 > 0:21:49Francine, do you wanna come today?
0:21:49 > 0:21:53If you're gonna keep bugging me, I'll have to.
0:21:54 > 0:22:01Remember, I don't feel like riding. I'm just going to watch.
0:22:06 > 0:22:12- She's still being stubborn.- She's jealous that I'm a better rider.
0:22:12 > 0:22:18- She won't get better till she gets on a horse.- I have an idea.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21Hey, Bronco, did you miss me?
0:22:22 > 0:22:29I said, did you miss me? ..That's better.
0:22:29 > 0:22:35- Oh, hi! I was just going.- First, you might want to hear Katherine's idea.
0:22:37 > 0:22:43It's a lot of work for me to take care of all these horses.
0:22:43 > 0:22:50- So?- Maybe you could help me out and- I- could give you a riding lesson.
0:22:50 > 0:22:54YOU?! Teach ME?!
0:22:54 > 0:22:57OK. Deal.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07This is my favourite. You have it.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Thanks. I've got 15.
0:23:10 > 0:23:16If we add in your 30 and I baby-sit every night for the next three years,
0:23:16 > 0:23:19we could buy a horse of our own!
0:23:19 > 0:23:25We could keep him in the basement. The storage bin is like a stall.
0:23:25 > 0:23:30- We could call him Stanley. - I'm not calling my horse Stanley!
0:23:30 > 0:23:37YOUR horse?! It's OUR horse. In fact, it's really MY horse.
0:23:37 > 0:23:43- I'm not riding in the Olympics on a horse named Stanley!- The Olympics?!
0:23:43 > 0:23:49- I'M the better rider! - Only cos YOU have longer legs!
0:23:49 > 0:23:53Just wait till I make my...
