0:00:02 > 0:00:03# Let's go on an adventure!
0:00:03 > 0:00:05# That isn't very wise
0:00:06 > 0:00:08# I love you guys! #
0:00:11 > 0:00:13- Waaaaah!- Aaaaaah!
0:00:15 > 0:00:17# This is getting crazier
0:00:17 > 0:00:22# Feels like we're endangered...
0:00:23 > 0:00:27# Species! #
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Hmmm.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35Hmmm.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38Which one...
0:00:38 > 0:00:40PICKLE SNORES
0:00:40 > 0:00:43..should I pick?
0:00:44 > 0:00:46They are all so handsome!
0:00:46 > 0:00:49Slow and steady, mi amigo.
0:00:52 > 0:00:56My turn! And she's off. Little guy on the left, first one out of the gate.
0:00:56 > 0:00:57Hey, Gull, can I go for you?
0:00:57 > 0:00:59- Sure.- No!- Thanks.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Who's it going to be, ladies and gentlemen?
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Red or black, black or red, red or black?
0:01:03 > 0:01:04Whoo! So fast.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Skip, skip, skip! King, king, king. It's going to be close.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09And the winner is...
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Pickle!
0:01:11 > 0:01:12Yay!
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Rush, rush, rush. It is no good.
0:01:15 > 0:01:20Slow and steady, she wins the race. Yes.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Uh, really?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25No, he's just messing with us. Slow don't win nothing.
0:01:25 > 0:01:26And I'll prove it.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28- Race you around the world.- Whoo!
0:01:28 > 0:01:32Racing is my favourite part of checkers. Here I come!
0:01:32 > 0:01:33Lap one!
0:01:34 > 0:01:41Gull, the Pickle, she may seem fast, but she will not win, yes?
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Aw, but I want her to win. She's so good at checkers.
0:01:44 > 0:01:45Lap two!
0:01:45 > 0:01:47- Go, Pickle! - HE SIGHS
0:01:47 > 0:01:51Gull, let me tell you the little story.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55- It is called...- Whoo!
0:01:55 > 0:01:59- I like the sound of that.- No!
0:01:59 > 0:02:03It is a fable called The Tortoise And The Hare.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Once upon the time, a little speedy rabbit,
0:02:07 > 0:02:12she was challenged to the race by the sweet but slow tortoise.
0:02:12 > 0:02:16Ha, that tortoise don't stand a chance. Lap three!
0:02:16 > 0:02:20The hare, she was fast, but she was also full of herself.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23As she raced, she said, "I am so far ahead,
0:02:23 > 0:02:25"I have time for the nap, yes?"
0:02:25 > 0:02:28And you know what happened next?
0:02:28 > 0:02:31She woke up refreshed and won by a landslide. Lap four!
0:02:31 > 0:02:35Nooo. She lost.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38For you see, slow and steady, she wins the race.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Really? Are you sure about that, Merl?
0:02:40 > 0:02:45Si! For it is the power of...
0:02:45 > 0:02:47the FABLE!
0:02:47 > 0:02:48Lap five.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51And there is no way some slowpoke turtle can ever beat a speedy
0:02:51 > 0:02:54bunny like moi in a race.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56That is a book of lies.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59What? She does not lie. She is...
0:02:59 > 0:03:01the FABLE!
0:03:01 > 0:03:07I don't think so, so, so...
0:03:07 > 0:03:09Then do the proving of it, yes?
0:03:09 > 0:03:12Win the race against the tortoise.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17I'm a fable. Uh!
0:03:17 > 0:03:21OK, I'm ready! You ready? I'm ready! Hoo-ha, hoo-ha, hoo!
0:03:21 > 0:03:23HE GROANS
0:03:23 > 0:03:27The turtle shell, she is heavy, yes.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29No. I'll be fine.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33Once I'm back on my little turtle feet. Yoo!
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- Ready!- Let's go, let's go, let's go.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Ready, set...
0:03:39 > 0:03:41WHOOPIE CUSHION RUMBLES
0:03:41 > 0:03:42- Eeeee!- Ah!
0:03:42 > 0:03:44And she's off, ladies and gentlemen.
0:03:44 > 0:03:48Our favourite to win, Pickle, AKA the hare.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Passing over furniture, dancing the Charleston...
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Na-na, na-na, na-na-na!
0:03:53 > 0:03:57Passing the same potted plant for the billionth trillionth time.
0:03:58 > 0:03:59EVIL LAUGH
0:03:59 > 0:04:02She even defies gravity itself.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05She's even got time to discover the meaning of life.
0:04:05 > 0:04:09How does she find the time? Nailed it!
0:04:09 > 0:04:11I'm right behind you.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Doing great, tortoise!
0:04:14 > 0:04:15TOILET FLUSHES
0:04:15 > 0:04:18And she's headed for the finish line.
0:04:18 > 0:04:19And she...
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Yeah-ha-haa.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Eh, maybe I've got time for one game.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Or lots of games. Yay!
0:04:31 > 0:04:34This can't possibly come back to haunt me.
0:04:41 > 0:04:42Yes! I win!
0:04:42 > 0:04:45No, you lose.
0:04:45 > 0:04:46Come on, Pickle.
0:04:46 > 0:04:51I'm not across the finish line yet. Oh!
0:04:51 > 0:04:53How is this possible?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56It is the power of...the FABLE.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58No, it isn't. Rematch.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01OK, you're ready? I'm ready. You ready? Three, two, one...
0:05:01 > 0:05:03WHOOPIE CUSHION RUMBLES
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Past the potted plant.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07- Past the toilet.- Ah!
0:05:09 > 0:05:10And all the way to victor...
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Ahh!
0:05:18 > 0:05:22Ha-ha! Where is everybody?
0:05:25 > 0:05:29Merl, I made it. I won the race.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33HE LAUGHS, HE COUGHS
0:05:33 > 0:05:39The race? It was many, many decades ago, yes.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44You went so fast you travelled through time to the future,
0:05:44 > 0:05:48where I am the smartest creature in the universe.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Future Gull meant to do that.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56Not only that, but Gull won the race when you slipped out
0:05:56 > 0:06:00of the temporal dimension of us, yes.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03I lost again?
0:06:03 > 0:06:06It is the power of the FABLE!
0:06:06 > 0:06:11Noooo!
0:06:11 > 0:06:12Huh?
0:06:12 > 0:06:14You lose.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18Slow and steady, she wins the race.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Say it.
0:06:20 > 0:06:24Never. One more rematch.
0:06:24 > 0:06:25Go. Again.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28All right...
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Not too fast, not too slow.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35Just beat that tortoise, that's all you got to do.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41- So tired.- Don't fall asleep! - Huh? Who said that?
0:06:41 > 0:06:43You've got to win, for us!
0:06:43 > 0:06:48- ALL:- The hares! We are the quick, we are the unsteady.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51Against the tortoise, we always lose.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53What's happening?
0:06:53 > 0:06:56We always fall asleep by the finish line,
0:06:56 > 0:06:58as is foretold in the...
0:06:58 > 0:07:00THEY YAWN
0:07:00 > 0:07:01..fable.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30Ugh.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- Hm.- Hey. Uh... Why are you eating a shrub, Pickle?
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Meh, I read it's what tortoises eat.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Maybe if I eat enough I'll win a race.
0:07:41 > 0:07:46Someday. I could really go for a pep talk right about now.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49A pep talk? That's my espeticality.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53You see, when I was young, I was a tortoise and I could not fly, right?
0:07:53 > 0:07:55And then Barbara said, "Nu-uh!" And I said,
0:07:55 > 0:07:59"Hey, you don't know me!" But I really wish that I could fly.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01But I couldn't. The end.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05Hm. Well, first of all, you can fly. You're a bird.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07Ahh! I am?!
0:08:09 > 0:08:11HE BURPS

0:08:43 > 0:08:45DONG
0:08:47 > 0:08:52AND the hare, the bunny, the Pickle, she has lost.
0:08:52 > 0:08:53- Again.- What?! But...
0:08:53 > 0:08:56- But...- It is the power of...
0:08:56 > 0:08:58the FABLE!

0:09:15 > 0:09:17The Pickle, she has lost.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20But the Merl is the real winner here.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Woohoo! I win! I win!
0:09:22 > 0:09:24I finally win!
0:09:24 > 0:09:26In the face of you, world!
0:09:27 > 0:09:31Gosh, this book sure is powerful. Look at this one.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35The squirrel who laid the golden egg.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38Oh, yeah. Oh, let's read that.
0:09:38 > 0:09:39Uh, no. It is nothing.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41HE LAUGHS NERVOUSLY
0:09:41 > 0:09:44There is no power of the FABLE.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47I don't know, sounds pretty powerful to me.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51No. It is just a FABLE. No...
0:09:51 > 0:09:53- FABLE. - HE COUGHS
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Fable. Fable.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08HE GROANS

0:10:11 > 0:10:13HE SCREAMS
0:10:15 > 0:10:18That... It is nothing.
0:10:18 > 0:10:24IMITATES MERL: No, it is the power of the FABLE.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Ugh!
