0:01:24 > 0:01:26Hello!

0:01:27 > 0:01:30Oh, there you are!

0:01:31 > 0:01:35You know what's worse than walking your dog in a snowstorm?

0:01:35 > 0:01:38Walking your dog in a blizzard.

0:01:38 > 0:01:40But you have to walk your dog.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43If you have a dog, you know what I mean.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45- Arthur!- What?

0:01:45 > 0:01:47Mom says come inside.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50I'm trying!

0:01:50 > 0:01:52DW?

0:01:52 > 0:01:57- Agh!- Did you see a polar bear eating a marshmallow out here?

0:01:57 > 0:02:02Don't be silly! There are no polar bears in this part of the world.

0:02:02 > 0:02:03PENGUIN SQUEAKS

0:02:03 > 0:02:08I've been hoping for snow, but this is ridiculous!

0:02:09 > 0:02:11DOG BARKS AND BABY CRIES

0:02:14 > 0:02:18RADIO: 'And we'll get a light dusting of snow overnight.'

0:02:18 > 0:02:20It's snowing! Maybe school will be closed

0:02:20 > 0:02:22and I'll be forced to play in the show all day!

0:02:22 > 0:02:27The weatherman says it'll just be a light dusting. Now get back into bed.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30Aw! Who wants just a little snow?

0:02:34 > 0:02:37Snow everywhere! And it's still snowing!

0:02:37 > 0:02:41- Why aren't you dressed? - Maybe school's closed.

0:02:41 > 0:02:47'Snow will stop soon and it will be a sunny day. No school closings.'

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Why do weathermen never say the right thing?

0:02:57 > 0:02:59I hoped school was cancelled.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01I couldn't finish my dumb history report.

0:03:01 > 0:03:05You couldn't finish a one-page report about the pioneers?

0:03:05 > 0:03:09They didn't have cars, electricity or television.

0:03:09 > 0:03:14Those people were D-U-U-U-L-L-L,

0:03:14 > 0:03:16du-ull!

0:03:16 > 0:03:19Sorry I'm late. Let's jump right into work.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23Bad news. The storm is getting worse.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27We've lost electricity, so school's closed.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29No! KIDS CHEER

0:03:31 > 0:03:34Now I have time to do my history report!

0:03:34 > 0:03:37As you exit, hand in your history reports.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42I COULD give you an F, but I won't.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50Why are you mad? He didn't give you an F!

0:03:50 > 0:03:55But I have to write a THREE-page report and I can't play in the snow!

0:03:55 > 0:04:00That wouldn't have happened if you'd did it when you were supposed to!

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Bwah! Hey!

0:04:03 > 0:04:07"The pioneers crossed the country and had hardships like bad weather."

0:04:07 > 0:04:10So what? Why didn't they stay where they were,

0:04:10 > 0:04:14invent aeroplanes THEN cross the country? Duh!

0:04:17 > 0:04:20Wow! It's so deep!

0:04:20 > 0:04:25This is nothing. I can remember having snow over my head.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28But weren't you younger than DW?

0:04:28 > 0:04:31Oh, yeah...right. WIND HOWLS

0:04:33 > 0:04:36The storm's getting worse. Everybody inside!

0:04:36 > 0:04:38BOTH: AWW!

0:05:05 > 0:05:07BOTH SIGH

0:05:13 > 0:05:15Daddy! The power's out! I can't finish my report

0:05:15 > 0:05:18without a computer. I'm going to build a snowman.

0:05:18 > 0:05:24- Keep working.- Bet I'm the only person in town not having fun!

0:05:25 > 0:05:27You fellas can't leave!

0:05:27 > 0:05:33- I MUST go and do my lesson plans. - And I'm hungry!

0:05:33 > 0:05:38By the authority of the Maintenance Workers and Gym Teachers Union,

0:05:38 > 0:05:40I'm declaring Janitorial law.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42You got to help drain the pipes.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45If they freeze the school would be closed for a month!

0:05:45 > 0:05:49No! We can't let that happen!

0:05:49 > 0:05:55To be SURE the pipes don't freeze, we'd have to stay here all night.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58That's the spirit! Thanks for volunteering!

0:05:58 > 0:06:01What? No! I didn't mean...

0:06:01 > 0:06:05- I'm hungry! - I got plenty of beans for us all.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12RADIO: 'Don't worry, there's a 0% chance of freezing rain!'

0:06:22 > 0:06:23CAR HORN BLARES

0:06:29 > 0:06:32SIRENS WAIL

0:06:32 > 0:06:35Mommy! Daddy! The town's exploding!

0:06:35 > 0:06:37It's very pretty!

0:06:37 > 0:06:42I tried all night, but the plough's stuck and the roads can't be cleared.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45Daddy, it's too cold to write!

0:06:45 > 0:06:48I have to stop doing my report!

0:06:48 > 0:06:52Yes, we still have power, Oliver... Francine can work here.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55I'll go for food - enough for us all.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58RADIO:'..and food supplies are low.'

0:06:58 > 0:07:02Is that all the milk, eggs and bread there are?

0:07:02 > 0:07:05Yup! No deliveries can get through.

0:07:05 > 0:07:09Lucky I got the last loaf! First come, first serve - sorry!

0:07:10 > 0:07:14I wouldn't eat that junk if I was you. Besides, it's all frozen.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18I...hate...school!

0:07:18 > 0:07:22Mr Haney! He didn't mean it!

0:07:22 > 0:07:24I want to go home!

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Beans(!)

0:07:26 > 0:07:31Daddy! My hairdryer is broken! And the TV is broken!

0:07:31 > 0:07:33And the light in the kitchen is broken!

0:07:33 > 0:07:36Nothing's broken, muffin, our electricity is out.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40- Make it be fixed, Daddy! - I can't, Poochie-face.

0:07:40 > 0:07:45Very funny(!) Make it be fixed, Daddy! PAY someone!

0:07:45 > 0:07:48This is something money can't fix, Honey Wallet.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Mom! Ready to go?

0:07:50 > 0:07:55As soon as I finish the driveway, hon!

0:08:00 > 0:08:04Hey! You guys have any heat at your house?

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Yeah! Come on!

0:08:10 > 0:08:14I never thought that walking could be so hard!

0:08:17 > 0:08:21Mom invited anyone who needed to get warm.

0:08:21 > 0:08:26Everyone brought what food they had. I'll mix it up and make stew!

0:08:29 > 0:08:33I have less ideas than ever for this dumb report!

0:08:33 > 0:08:39Our house was FREEZING. My lips got stuck when I practised the tuba!

0:08:39 > 0:08:40GASPS

0:08:40 > 0:08:42We...have no power!

0:08:42 > 0:08:47This is the most horrible time of my life! We're all gonna die in a heap!

0:08:47 > 0:08:50Thanks for the vote of confidence, DW(!)

0:08:50 > 0:08:53We can cook on the camp stove outside and the fireplace.

0:08:53 > 0:08:57Oh, good! We won't starve!

0:08:57 > 0:08:59We'll just FREEZE.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02Put on your coats and mittens and huddle together near the fire.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05And don't try to practise the tuba!

0:09:05 > 0:09:09If everyone's power's out, should we check on the Crosswires?

0:09:09 > 0:09:12If you want, but I'm sure they've probably found some way

0:09:12 > 0:09:14to keep warm that we can't even afford.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16THEY SCREAM

0:09:19 > 0:09:22PHONE RINGS I'll get it!

0:09:22 > 0:09:24SCREAMING CONTINUES Hello?

0:09:25 > 0:09:31No servants? No electric blanket? The weather is SO rude!

0:09:31 > 0:09:36- Did you bring any of the eggs, bread and milk you bought?- Er, no. Why?

0:09:36 > 0:09:40No reason. I'm sure we have enough stew for everyone.

0:09:40 > 0:09:44Hey! That looks just like you when you showed up earlier!

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Wow... They must have been FREEZING.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50No electricity. Just fire for heat.

0:09:50 > 0:09:54Kind of like us... How did they ever do it?

0:09:54 > 0:09:58'I don't think I ever could have survived as a pioneer.

0:09:58 > 0:10:01'They had to be the toughest people in the world

0:10:01 > 0:10:03to live like this every day.

0:10:03 > 0:10:09'Never knowing what tomorrow would bring. They had no weathermen.'

0:10:09 > 0:10:12Hey! It stopped snowing!

0:10:12 > 0:10:14We're not going to die in a heap!

0:10:14 > 0:10:16FERN: Told you so!

0:10:18 > 0:10:22Hey, hey! It's time to dig out! Who wants to help?

0:10:22 > 0:10:25'But I think I know how they might have done it.

0:10:25 > 0:10:30'Many people working together can do stuff just one can't do alone.

0:10:30 > 0:10:33'Like surviving tough times or start new countries and stuff.

0:10:53 > 0:10:54HE SOBS WITH RELIEF

0:10:57 > 0:11:00'I bet the pioneers were people like us.

0:11:00 > 0:11:05'We all still need each other's help. We just forget sometimes.'

0:11:05 > 0:11:12- Finished!- 'Keep watching and we'll tell you when the power will be on.'

0:11:12 > 0:11:14The power's back on!

0:11:22 > 0:11:26Hold it, young lady! A snowball doesn't belong inside!

0:11:26 > 0:11:29- But I want to freeze it!- Why?

0:11:29 > 0:11:32Because this was the best day of my life,

0:11:32 > 0:11:34and I always want to keep a piece of it.

0:11:34 > 0:11:38OK, but put it on a plate so it doesn't stick to the freezer.

0:11:47 > 0:11:51- Dad, I got the ball - let's play!- No time for play, we have work to do!

0:11:51 > 0:11:56Oh...hi, Mr Ratburn. I'm looking for my dad.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59Very funny, Arthur. Now put down that ball and help me stuff turkeys

0:11:59 > 0:12:01for the Crosswires' big party.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06Mom! Mom!

0:12:06 > 0:12:10I went to see Dad and... Dad's not there.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12He was there a minute ago.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14- Hey! Watch where you're going!- AGH!

0:12:14 > 0:12:17What's going on? Where's my family?

0:12:17 > 0:12:20Arthur Ratburn, stop fooling around.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23- IN RATBURN'S VOICE: WOOF! WOOF! - Noooo!

0:12:28 > 0:12:31What could be worse than dreaming that your teacher lives with you?

0:12:31 > 0:12:34Arthur, if you don't hurry, DW and I will eat

0:12:34 > 0:12:37all the delicious blueberry waffles your dad made!

0:12:48 > 0:12:52What you got here is a ton of snow on your roof.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55Yes... Is the roof going to collapse?

0:12:55 > 0:13:00Nah. After the snow melts, I'll fix the cracks. But this'll hold.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03- No problem. - What a relief!

0:13:07 > 0:13:10Or...you might want it fixed right away.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17Saturdays with snow are the best!

0:13:17 > 0:13:21Ah! Just in time for Dunce Patrol!

0:13:21 > 0:13:25- Well, duh!- Duh!- Duh!

0:13:25 > 0:13:29Arthur... Oh! That show is SO dumb!

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Mom, after a hard week at school,

0:13:31 > 0:13:34it's fun to kick back, watch some dumb guys

0:13:34 > 0:13:39and know I won't have to see or think about Mr Ratburn all weekend!

0:13:39 > 0:13:43That's what I wanted to tell you, Mr Ratburn's roof collapsed

0:13:43 > 0:13:47- and he has nowhere to stay. - Oh. That's too bad.

0:13:47 > 0:13:53- I knew you'd feel that way. So we invited him to stay here.- Hmm...

0:13:53 > 0:13:55HUH? AGHHH!

0:13:55 > 0:13:57KATE GURGLES

0:13:57 > 0:14:02What...? He... Here? Stay...?

0:14:02 > 0:14:05# Arthur's teacher's gonna stay here! #

0:14:05 > 0:14:08- He can't! - Just until they fix his roof.

0:14:12 > 0:14:16It's too weird! My teacher in my house, walking on my carpet...

0:14:16 > 0:14:20drinking from my cups and touching my stuff? Bleugh!

0:14:20 > 0:14:22School is at school and home is at home

0:14:22 > 0:14:26because they're not supposed to ever come together!

0:14:26 > 0:14:30Exactly! My parents have to understand that!

0:14:30 > 0:14:33How can you not understand?

0:14:33 > 0:14:35It's wrong! It goes against nature!

0:14:35 > 0:14:39- The poor man has nowhere else to go. - Are there no hotels?

0:14:39 > 0:14:43He's going to stay here. And we're all going to make him feel welcome!

0:14:47 > 0:14:49So he's coming whether you like it or not, huh?

0:14:51 > 0:14:54It'll be just like taking a test. All the time!

0:14:57 > 0:14:59QUICK! What's seven times eight?

0:15:03 > 0:15:08THIS is your brain. And THIS is your brain when you watch junk TV.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15Are you doing homework?

0:15:15 > 0:15:20- I'm taking a bath!- I'm sliding a waterproof pad under the door.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23List the continents in order of size.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27HE GROANS

0:15:43 > 0:15:47- What you got there, son?- This? Oh...stuff.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55- Why are you putting a poster over a poster?- You wouldn't understand.

0:15:55 > 0:15:59To make your teacher think you're smart instead of dopey?

0:15:59 > 0:16:01Go away!

0:16:01 > 0:16:04DOORBELL RINGS AND HE GASPS

0:16:04 > 0:16:08- DW: Hey! Hi! Look at me! - Arthur! Come and say hello!

0:16:08 > 0:16:12I really can't tell you how much I appreciate this.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14- Hey, hi! Over here! - Hello.

0:16:14 > 0:16:18Hi. I'm DW Read, Arthur's smarter sister.

0:16:18 > 0:16:23Is it true what Arthur says about you hating all children?

0:16:23 > 0:16:28- Here I am! Welcome! Come in! Hello! - You're on my foot!

0:16:28 > 0:16:32- Would you carry these up to Arthur's room?- MY room?

0:16:32 > 0:16:35- # He's staying in your room! # - Arthur...

0:16:35 > 0:16:38I set out your sleeping bag in DW's room.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40- You can sleep there.- No fair!

0:16:46 > 0:16:50Those are some of most favourite books in the whole world.

0:16:50 > 0:16:55Spline Extrusion? The Copernican Universe Model?

0:16:55 > 0:16:58Didn't you just borrow those from the Brain?

0:16:58 > 0:17:01I believe in using my BRAIN a lot.

0:17:01 > 0:17:06- Mr Ropeburn, you should see what's under here!- No! Er...

0:17:06 > 0:17:09HE GIGGLES NERVOUSLY

0:17:09 > 0:17:12I think I smell Dad making a cake.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14- CAKE?- Did you say cake?

0:17:20 > 0:17:22Hey! Arthur! >

0:17:26 > 0:17:29Oh, man, am I glad to see YOU. I can't come out.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32Why? Is...HE here?

0:17:32 > 0:17:35Yeah! I'll come down and let you in.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38No...no, thanks, I... No.

0:17:40 > 0:17:46He's not here. There was no cake, Arthur! Mr Rathead was disappointed.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48MUSIC ON TV

0:17:51 > 0:17:55'Today, we watch grass grow in real-time...'

0:17:55 > 0:18:00Just watching some...educational TV. Fascinating!

0:18:00 > 0:18:03You look...different.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06I don't ALWAYS dress like a teacher.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09- So the school roof fell in? - No, the roof to my home.

0:18:09 > 0:18:16- But the school is your home. - Teachers don't live at school, DW.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19We have houses just like you.

0:18:19 > 0:18:23The world seemed so simple before this morning!

0:18:23 > 0:18:27- I thought you might enjoy one of my favourite videos.- Oh...

0:18:27 > 0:18:30I'm sure it'll be very educational.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42Spooky Poo?

0:18:42 > 0:18:47- Spooky Poo!? - I haven't seen this for years!

0:18:48 > 0:18:51(He watches cartoons?)

0:18:52 > 0:18:55THIS is Arthur's heaviest school book.

0:18:57 > 0:19:01Shazam! No homework tonight!

0:19:01 > 0:19:06- That's unbelievable! Can you teach me how to do that?- No problem!

0:19:06 > 0:19:09Shazam! No homework tonight!

0:19:09 > 0:19:10Great, Arthur!

0:19:18 > 0:19:21BOTH: More Spooky Poo?

0:19:22 > 0:19:24You made cake? For ME?

0:19:27 > 0:19:32Guess I was wrong about Mr Ratburn. Teachers can be sort of normal.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34Who'd have thought this would turn out so great?

0:19:34 > 0:19:38- Good night, Mom! Good night, Dad! - BOTH: Good night, Arthur.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41- Good night, Mr Ratburn. - Good night, Arthur! Good night, DW!

0:19:41 > 0:19:43- Good night, Mr Ratburn!- Night, Pal!

0:19:43 > 0:19:45PAL BARKS

0:19:45 > 0:19:49Good night, Pal. Will there be more cake tomorrow?

0:19:52 > 0:19:57- I bet Arthur's ready to run away from home!- Here he comes!

0:19:57 > 0:20:01Mom says you can stay with us until Ratburn goes home.

0:20:01 > 0:20:05No, thanks. It's not so bad. He taught me a magic trick. We had fun.

0:20:09 > 0:20:14- I got a C-minus on that test! - You beat me. How about you, Arthur?

0:20:14 > 0:20:18- He got an A. It's not fair! - What do you mean?

0:20:18 > 0:20:25She means we can ALL get As if our fathers made cakes for the teacher!

0:20:25 > 0:20:28- I studied hard for that A! - OTHERS:- Oh, sure(!)

0:20:28 > 0:20:31We believe you, the fact that the teacher lives with you

0:20:31 > 0:20:34is just a coincidence(!)

0:20:34 > 0:20:35I'm being sarcastic.

0:20:38 > 0:20:43Hey, Buster! Wanna come over and watch Spooky Poo? It's funny!

0:20:43 > 0:20:47Nah, I don't wanna get between you and your new friend(!)

0:20:47 > 0:20:53- Wanna go to the Sugarbowl for cocoa? - Can't. We're going to the Sugarbowl.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55- I'd like my books back.- Sure.

0:20:55 > 0:21:00- Come on over and get them. - No, thanks. Bring them to school.

0:21:00 > 0:21:03Oh, this is from Fern.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06Hey! What's with everybody? Ugh!

0:21:06 > 0:21:12# Teacher's pet! Teacher's pet! Something...that rhymes with pet! #

0:21:12 > 0:21:14And that means YOU, Arthur!

0:21:19 > 0:21:25Hey, boy! Oh...some days it's great to get home and forget about school.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Ohh...

0:21:30 > 0:21:32Hi.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34Hello, Arth...

0:21:34 > 0:21:35Arthur?

0:21:38 > 0:21:40"Rat and Rat Jr"?

0:21:40 > 0:21:45And my friends won't come here! And Binky called me teacher's pet!

0:21:45 > 0:21:49- Maybe we should ask Mr Ratburn to talk to them.- No!

0:21:49 > 0:21:52How long ago were you a kid? That' make it worse.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54Sorry, I couldn't help overhearing.

0:21:54 > 0:21:59DW handed me this can and told me to listen.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01You know I wouldn't give you special treatment, Arthur.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03But what would you think if you were a kid?

0:22:03 > 0:22:07Hmm. What can we do about what people think when they're wrong?

0:22:07 > 0:22:12If you give me an F, it'll prove I'm not the teacher's pet!

0:22:12 > 0:22:16Just act normally, and they'll realise how wrong they are.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Not as soon as if he gave me an F.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21# Teacher's pet! Teacher's pet! #

0:22:21 > 0:22:27If cake gets you an A, will pie a la mode get you an A-plus?

0:22:27 > 0:22:30- I hope my mother appreciates this. - Arthur, I just found out

0:22:30 > 0:22:33- I won't be staying at your house - any more. Really?

0:22:33 > 0:22:38I need to oversee the roof repairs. I'm staying with Francine's family.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41Only for a week, then I'll be staying at Binky's house.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43Everyone's so generous!

0:22:43 > 0:22:47Who knows? I may spend time at Muffy's! And Buster's!

0:22:47 > 0:22:53Mr Ratburn in my house? Drinking from our cups, touching my stuff?

0:22:53 > 0:22:59- How can my parents do this to me? - What was it like, Arthur?- OK...

0:22:59 > 0:23:01First, if anyone calls you teacher's pet,

0:23:01 > 0:23:04just smile and don't let it bother you.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06Second, I hope you like Spooky Poo.
