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

0:00:530:00:59

-Hey, DW!

-Hey...!

0:00:590:01:03

Whoa!

0:01:030:01:05

-Buster, make up your mind already!

-Just a second.

0:01:090:01:13

OK - a scoop of tattoo goo, calamari crunch, pretzels and cream

0:01:130:01:19

and a scoop of dolce on a sugar comb with jalapenos.

0:01:190:01:23

Have you ever tried to bite off more than you can chew? Buster has.

0:01:250:01:30

-How are you gonna eat all that?

-First, I lick from south to north.

0:01:300:01:36

S-S-Slurp! Mmm...calamari!

0:01:370:01:40

-Next, I lick from east to west. S-S-Slurp!

-Buster! Look out!

0:01:400:01:45

Ice cream down! Quick! I need the paddles!

0:01:450:01:49

Stand back!

0:01:490:01:51

This has to be a perfect shot.

0:01:510:01:54

And...clear!

0:01:540:01:56

-You should have been a performing seal.

-I picked up extra nuts!

0:01:570:02:04

Ugh!

0:02:040:02:06

Ah!

0:02:100:02:12

-Francine!

-Over here!

0:02:130:02:16

-Sit here.

-Hi, guys.

0:02:160:02:19

-How do you feel?

-Have you slept OK? Is your tongue coated?

-I'm fine!

0:02:190:02:26

-What is it?

-We just want you to be ready for the bowling tournament.

0:02:260:02:31

Relax! I've been bowling since I could walk. We'll roll over them!

0:02:310:02:38

-Wouldn't it be nice to beat Mighty Mountain?

-Remember when you two

0:02:380:02:43

were having a fight, and Mighty Mountain creamed us at soccer?

0:02:430:02:48

THEY CHEER

0:02:490:02:52

-As I recall, we won that game.

-Oh, yeah...

0:02:520:02:57

Well, what about the time it was Friday 13th,

0:02:570:03:01

and you were superstitious? Mighty Mountain clobbered us at softball.

0:03:010:03:05

APPLAUSE

0:03:120:03:14

-We won that game too.

-Oh, yeah...

0:03:140:03:18

What about the highlight tournament?

0:03:180:03:21

-Disaster!

-Pulverized!

-That won't happen again.

0:03:210:03:25

-We've got the best bowler on our side.

-Did you say bowling?

0:03:250:03:30

Can I play? Those two-tone shoes are so retro chic!

0:03:300:03:35

-Sorry, Muffy. The team can only have four players.

-Oh.

0:03:350:03:40

And I was going to get Daddy to have some cool bowling shirts made.

0:03:400:03:45

U-Um...

0:03:450:03:48

Maybe you could be our... bowling fashion consultant!

0:03:480:03:52

Goody! But we're going to have to do something about your hair!

0:03:520:03:58

It all comes down to this - Fransky has to bowl a strike.

0:03:580:04:02

-The crowd's breathless.

-What did I say about bowling in the house?

0:04:020:04:08

-Just psyching up for the tournament on Saturday.

-You can't go.

0:04:080:04:13

-It's your cousin's Bar Mitzvah.

-I can't miss the biggest tournament!

0:04:130:04:19

It's an important family event. It'll be fun.

0:04:190:04:23

-You'll get to see all your cousins.

-But, Mom...

0:04:230:04:27

The school's counting on me! No-one will notice I'm not there!

0:04:270:04:33

You've gotta let me go!

0:04:330:04:36

-What do you mean you can't bowl on Saturday!

-I knew it!

0:04:360:04:40

-Her tongue was furry!

-No, it's my cousin's Bar Mitzvah.

0:04:400:04:45

-What?

-It's the Jewish celebration of adulthood.

0:04:450:04:49

-For females, it's called a Bat Mitzvah.

-Whatever!

0:04:490:04:54

You turn 13, recite some prayers and everyone says you're an adult.

0:04:540:04:59

-Then a boring party.

-It's more significant than that.

0:04:590:05:03

You must go back to the beginning of the Jewish people,

0:05:030:05:07

when Abraham and Sarah begat Isaac, who begat Jacob,

0:05:070:05:12

-who...

-But without Francine, we'll get creamed again!

0:05:120:05:16

I'm sorry, but what can I do? I can't be in two places at once!

0:05:160:05:22

Maybe you can...

0:05:240:05:26

By my calculations,

0:05:260:05:29

it IS possible to attend the Bar Mitzvah AND bowl,

0:05:290:05:33

but it requires precision timing.

0:05:330:05:35

Step 1 - wear your party dress over your bowling clothes.

0:05:350:05:40

Step 2 - Seth becomes an adult no later than 12.30pm.

0:05:420:05:47

Step 3 - drink one glass of punch at the party,

0:05:470:05:51

then - at precisely 12.52pm - sneak out the back door.

0:05:510:05:56

-Step 4 - ride your bike to...

-Wait! How does my bike get there?

0:05:560:06:01

-On his way, Arthur will leave it for you.

-And my bowling shoes.

0:06:010:06:07

-How do I get there?

-The team fashion consultant.

0:06:100:06:14

Where was I?

0:06:160:06:19

At the part where twin jets come out of Francine's bike...

0:06:190:06:24

ALL: Buster!

0:06:240:06:27

Step 5 - you beat Mighty Mountain for us.

0:06:270:06:31

-Hooray!

-Final step... Return to the party before anyone misses you.

0:06:320:06:37

So?

0:06:370:06:40

I like it!

0:06:400:06:42

-Hurry up, Francine!

-Almost ready.

0:06:440:06:48

Come on.

0:06:520:06:54

JEWISH PRAYERS ARE SUNG

0:06:540:06:58

HE SINGS IN HEBREW

0:06:580:07:01

-I didn't know Seth could speak Hebrew.

-He can't really,

0:07:010:07:06

-but he studied this passage for a year, ready for today.

-Wow!

0:07:060:07:11

THEY CHATTER

0:07:130:07:16

-We've got to get to the party.

-Why rush?

-I'm starving. Yeah...

0:07:160:07:21

LIVELY MUSIC PLAYS

0:07:210:07:24

-This is SO cool!

-Let's see you groove. Dance with me.

0:07:240:07:29

Um... Maybe later. Right now, I have to go to...to the bathroom.

0:07:290:07:34

Oh! Arthur!

0:07:410:07:43

Come on, come on...!

0:07:460:07:50

-Yeah!

-Where are my bowling shoes?

-Oops!

0:07:530:07:57

-Um...at my house? I remembered your bike.

-There's no time to argue!

0:07:570:08:03

You're 12 minutes, 18 seconds late.

0:08:030:08:06

Just go rent a pair.

0:08:060:08:08

-Quick! I need a pair of shoes - size 4.

-Sorry...

0:08:080:08:13

-All I got is a 10.

-Oh!

0:08:130:08:16

-CLUMP!

-I'm coming... What's this?

0:08:160:08:20

-You forgot my bowling ball?

-No, but as the team's fashion consultant,

0:08:200:08:25

I thought your ball looked a little shabby, so I got you a new one.

0:08:250:08:30

This looks like a toy!

0:08:300:08:33

-And my fingers don't fit!

-Well, EXCUSE ME!

0:08:330:08:37

-You think I'm happy with your ridiculous combo?

-Use mine.

0:08:370:08:42

Just bowl!

0:08:420:08:45

Still 35 points behind.

0:08:510:08:54

-It's these shoes - my feet keep slipping out.

-We can tape them on.

0:08:540:09:00

-I'll find tape. I've got time before my next turn.

-Time? I'm late!

0:09:000:09:06

I've gotta go! Someone bowl for me! I'll be back!

0:09:060:09:11

-Francine, where have you been?

-I went outside to get some fresh air.

0:09:130:09:19

I was feeling kind of queasy.

0:09:190:09:22

Hmm...you ARE a little clammy.

0:09:220:09:25

So, did I miss the overcooked peas and underdone chicken?

0:09:250:09:30

Whoa! We're having roast beef?

0:09:300:09:32

-This looks delicious!

-If you have an upset stomach, don't eat meat.

0:09:320:09:39

-Could you bring plain broth?

-Aw!

-HER TUMMY RUMBLES

0:09:390:09:44

OK, I'm here...! What's SHE doing?

0:09:440:09:49

-She had to take your turn.

-She'll lose us the tournament!

0:09:490:09:54

-That's the worst bowling stance I've seen.

-She's been OK.

0:09:540:09:59

Here's the tape for your shoes.

0:09:590:10:01

Uh!

0:10:050:10:07

Aaagh! This is taking FOREVER!

0:10:170:10:20

-Let me take over!

-The rules say she has to finish her frame.

0:10:200:10:25

Why not go back to the party and return for the final?

0:10:250:10:30

MUSIC ENDS

0:10:300:10:33

-Did I miss the hora?

-No, you're just in time.

0:10:330:10:37

HORA MUSIC PLAYS

0:10:370:10:40

-What happened?

-Oh... A waiter spilt roast beef on me.

0:10:430:10:47

What a klutz! Do I get to go in the chair, too? I feel much better.

0:10:470:10:53

Sure - after Seth and his parents.

0:10:530:10:55

OK, Frankie - your turn!

0:10:590:11:02

Shouldn't Katherine go first? She's older.

0:11:020:11:06

I need to clean my dress.

0:11:060:11:09

There! Mighty Mountain, look out!

0:11:140:11:18

-I don't believe it! She got a 7-10 split!

-YES!

0:11:230:11:27

THEY CHEER AND WHOOP

0:11:270:11:30

You mean...it's over?

0:11:300:11:33

I chipped a nail! ALL: Muffy! Muffy!

0:11:330:11:37

-So, where were you this time?

-Uh...at the punch bowl.

0:11:400:11:45

I thought your nose grew when you lie, but it's your BOWLING SHOES!

0:11:450:11:52

SHE GASPS

0:11:520:11:55

-After this, I've got to mop the kitchen floor.

-Harsh.

0:11:550:11:59

I guess they were upset you missed part of the Bar Mitzvah.

0:11:590:12:03

So am I. I missed a really great party for that stupid tournament.

0:12:030:12:09

There's another party coming up.

0:12:090:12:11

-Whose?

-Yours. If you start preparing now,

0:12:110:12:15

you'll be ready for your Bah Mitzvah in five years, 93 days,

0:12:150:12:20

270 minutes and 48 seconds... 47 seconds, 46 seconds, 45 sec...
