0:00:02 > 0:00:04# Every day you walk down the street
0:00:04 > 0:00:09# Everybody that you meet has an original point of view
0:00:11 > 0:00:15- # And I say, hey!- Hey! - What a wonderful kind of day
0:00:15 > 0:00:18# We can learn to work and play
0:00:18 > 0:00:21# And get along with each other
0:00:21 > 0:00:24# You've got to listen to your heart Listen to the beat
0:00:24 > 0:00:27# Listen to the rhythm of the street
0:00:27 > 0:00:30# Open up your eyes Open up your ears
0:00:30 > 0:00:33# Get together and make things better
0:00:33 > 0:00:36# By working together It's a simple message
0:00:36 > 0:00:38# And it comes from the heart
0:00:38 > 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# We can learn to work and play And get along with each other
0:00:53 > 0:00:56# What a wonderful kind of day! Hey!
0:00:56 > 0:00:59# What a wonderful kind of day! Hey! #
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Hey, DW!
0:01:02 > 0:01:06- Hey!- Whoa!
0:01:07 > 0:01:11Did you ever wonder what would happen
0:01:11 > 0:01:16if scientists and explorers had to do what their parents told them?
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Like Galileo.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Father, it's only eight o'clock.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25Can't I discover one more moon of Jupiter? Please!
0:01:25 > 0:01:29One more moon of Jupiter and then it's the Milky Way!
0:01:29 > 0:01:35You've got the entire Renaissance to do it. It's past your bedtime.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37- Get into your jammies!- Aw!
0:01:37 > 0:01:40'Or what about Sir Isaac Newton?'
0:01:40 > 0:01:46- Ow!- Stop moping around! Do you expect ideas to fall from the sky?
0:01:46 > 0:01:50If everyone did everything their parents said,
0:01:50 > 0:01:54- that might stop the whole course of discovery.- Nice try.
0:01:54 > 0:01:59But Newton never tried to make a bacon flavoured shake
0:01:59 > 0:02:04with his father's good cooking equipment. Now get this cleaned up!
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Watch this!
0:02:16 > 0:02:18My turn!
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Wow, good one, Francine!
0:02:22 > 0:02:25That's nothin'. Watch this!
0:02:26 > 0:02:30- Oops!- Binky, you just need a smaller rock.
0:02:30 > 0:02:35One with a flat surface to deflect the water downward,
0:02:35 > 0:02:37thus gaining a net upward force.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Thanks, Buster. Watch this!
0:02:41 > 0:02:45- Agh!- What's the matter? - I just found it.- What is it?
0:02:45 > 0:02:49- A chipped rock?- It's an arrow head.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53- Wow!- Really? Where did you get it?
0:02:53 > 0:02:57It was buried in my mom's garden behind my building.
0:02:57 > 0:03:02- I wonder who buried it. - Prehistoric tribes lived here.
0:03:02 > 0:03:06Floods washed dirt over the tools the tribe used.
0:03:06 > 0:03:11- There could be arrow heads buried in our own yards?- Almost certainly.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14All you have to do is dig.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Cool, a helmet!
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Wow! Wow!
0:03:42 > 0:03:48I'm not worried about ancient ruins. It's modern ones I don't wanna see.
0:03:48 > 0:03:55Everybody else is digging in their yard, then we show what we found.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59I'll be careful. Really. Please?
0:03:59 > 0:04:03All right. I have to go do some errands now.
0:04:03 > 0:04:08You can dig behind the garage, but I don't want an excavation site!
0:04:08 > 0:04:11All right, thanks, Mom!
0:04:15 > 0:04:19What are you burying, Arthur? Your report card?
0:04:19 > 0:04:23- I'm digging for treasure. - What treasure? Pennies?
0:04:23 > 0:04:27- Arrow heads and civilisations. - Look at that!
0:04:29 > 0:04:32- It's alive!- Watch it! Careful, DW!
0:04:32 > 0:04:35It's a root.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39Even the Tibbles are too old for that gag!
0:04:39 > 0:04:42- I knew you were faking.- Sure.
0:04:42 > 0:04:47You wanna trade some of your tiny dimes for a big, shiny penny?
0:04:47 > 0:04:52Wait till everyone hears how you thought that root was a snake!
0:04:52 > 0:04:55What's this?
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Digestive biscuits?
0:04:58 > 0:05:02- What's digestive? - Like Reader's Digest.
0:05:02 > 0:05:07- What a dumb flavour!- There's got to be something decent down there.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12I've found something!
0:05:12 > 0:05:16It might belong to a sabre-toothed tiger
0:05:16 > 0:05:22- or a T-Rex or...- Pal. This bone belongs to Pal, Arthur.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24- Huh? - SQUEAKS
0:05:24 > 0:05:27BARKS
0:05:27 > 0:05:31I bet everyone else has found lots of stuff by now.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Too small.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50Duh!
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Drat!
0:06:05 > 0:06:09- There's nothing here! - < BARKING
0:06:09 > 0:06:12Hey!
0:06:12 > 0:06:18Arthur Read! You know you're not supposed to dig in the yard.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21I'm just gonna watch Pal.
0:06:21 > 0:06:26It's not very big and not very neat either. Maybe I could just fix it.
0:06:26 > 0:06:32You're not fixing it. You're making it bigger!
0:06:32 > 0:06:38I'm just digging a little until I find the stuff buried back here.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40- Like what stuff?- Like...
0:06:40 > 0:06:43I don't know!
0:06:43 > 0:06:47- Like... - CLANK
0:06:54 > 0:06:57Wow! Cool!
0:07:07 > 0:07:13Looks like nobody's been down here for a while, Pal.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16It's huge!
0:07:21 > 0:07:27This is it. It might be an ancient temple or it might be a trap.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Only one way to find out.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Oh, gosh!
0:07:39 > 0:07:41What were you doing in my closet?
0:07:41 > 0:07:44You wanna have a sandwich?
0:07:44 > 0:07:47You think there's secret passages?
0:07:47 > 0:07:52There's probably old tunnels that go everywhere. It's worth a try.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55And it's not just for me.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- Oh, no!- What is it, honey? - I forgot to get charcoal.
0:08:03 > 0:08:09- The stores are all closed.- We'll just have to cancel the barbecue.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13No, we don't. I'll be right back.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25With tax, that's... Let's see.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28There!
0:08:31 > 0:08:36Honey, I think these are the best hot dogs you've ever cooked.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Thanks to Arthur's secret passage.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43It's a good thing you didn't listen to me!
0:08:43 > 0:08:47It's a good thing you didn't listen to me?
0:08:47 > 0:08:49You believe Mom's gonna say that?
0:08:49 > 0:08:56She might. We'll not find a secret passage if we don't look for it.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58- But Mom said...- OK, you're right.
0:08:58 > 0:09:03If you wanna be a barbecue wrecker, we'll just play behind the garage!
0:09:03 > 0:09:09Let's find more tin cans. That's better than a secret passageway(!)
0:09:09 > 0:09:13Well, maybe you could dig just a little.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27BARKS
0:09:30 > 0:09:35Nothing. We must have the most boring back yard in history!
0:09:35 > 0:09:40- Maybe we're looking in the wrong places.- But I looked every...
0:09:40 > 0:09:44Wait a second! Who says we have to stay in the BACK yard?
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- No, Arthur... - There he is! Hi, Arthur!
0:09:48 > 0:09:53- We were waiting for you. - You must have found something big.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57- Not yet.- Really? We all found great stuff.
0:09:57 > 0:10:01- What? A metal detector? - No, these.
0:10:01 > 0:10:06- Pennies?- Not in mint condition, but over 30 years old.
0:10:06 > 0:10:12- They had coins then?- The first ones were made thousands of years ago.
0:10:12 > 0:10:17I found something much cooler. I think it looks like an iguana.
0:10:17 > 0:10:22- I'm calling it Angwon. - You gave a name to a root?
0:10:22 > 0:10:27- I name all my roots.- Look what I found! It's been lost for years.
0:10:27 > 0:10:32- It's not as good as this. - It still has a price tag on it.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36- You didn't find that in your yard. - No, I bought it.
0:10:36 > 0:10:41- But jewels do come out of the ground. - What did you find, Arthur?
0:10:41 > 0:10:45- Roots and rocks mostly.- And this!
0:10:45 > 0:10:49- Cool! Cool!- You think that's cool?
0:10:49 > 0:10:54It's old. That's for sure. I estimate it's over 40 years old.
0:10:54 > 0:10:59That's how old my mom is. That's ancient!
0:10:59 > 0:11:03- Wow! Look at this! - Did I find something else cool?
0:11:03 > 0:11:09- You're lucky. Your mom let you dig up the whole yard.- Did I do that?
0:11:09 > 0:11:15- Yes, I told you!- What am I gonna do?- You're gonna be in big trouble!
0:11:15 > 0:11:19Maybe we can get everything back the way it was.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28We did it!
0:11:30 > 0:11:36- Arthur, what happened?- There were these giant earthworms, Mrs Read.
0:11:36 > 0:11:41- They went crazy. We tried to stop them.- It was an army of chipmunks.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45- Moles have been known to make really big...- Thanks, guys.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48But it was my fault.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52I guess I got carried away. I'm sorry, Mom.
0:11:52 > 0:11:57After I specifically told you not to! I'm disappointed in you, Arthur.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Very disappointed!
0:12:01 > 0:12:06- Wanna go to the pond after school? - I've something much cooler to do.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Look what I found yesterday!
0:12:09 > 0:12:15- A harmonica. Where did you find it? - The garage. It has many cool things.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19What a treasure is depends on how you look at it.
0:12:19 > 0:12:24- You're grounded and have to clean the garage all week?- Yeah.
0:12:24 > 0:12:29- You can come to the pond next week. - Better make it the week AFTER next!
