HE GIGGLES

Whoa. Agh!

Ouch!

I bumped my elbow.

Hmm. My elbow feels really hard.

Hmm. My tummy feels soft.

I wonder why some of me is hard and some of me is soft.

Ha! When you need to know, go to Okido!

BOING

DOG BARKS

Hi, little doggie!

-Hi, Messy.

-Hi, Messy.

Hi, Zoe. Hi, Felix. DOG BARKS AND HOWLS

-Who's this?

-Hmm. I don't know.

Me neither.

I wonder where she came from and why she's barking so much.

Let's go and see Zim, Zam and Zoom.

They'll know what to do.

HE WHISTLES

Hop in!

Let's skidoodle, Okidoodle!

MACHINE WHIRS LOUDLY

-Hi, everyone!

-Hi, everyone!

Ah, hello, you three.

We're making banana and strawberry milkshakes.

THEY GASP

Hi, Mustard. What are you doing here?

She's very far from home.

She lives with her best friend Lofty the giant in the mountains.

I wonder what she's doing all the way down here.

-We'll have to take her home.

-Yes, you're right.

-Let's go!

-DOG BARKS

GROANING

What is making that noise?

DOG HOWLS

Oh, hello, Mustard.

Thank goodness you found my friends.

Was that you making that noise, Lofty? Are you OK?

Your finger looks a bit...funny.

I was building a special house for Mustard

but I hurt my finger,

so Mustard went to get help.

And here you are!

-I knew you'd come.

-HE GROANS

Does it feel sore, Lofty?

Can you wiggle it?

Nope.

Oh. I just need to examine it for you.

I-I-It won't hurt a bit.

-Here we go.

-Do you think we'll need the X-ray machine, Zam?

Mm-hmm.

This is an X-ray machine.

Wow! How does it work?

It's a little bit like a camera,

but it takes a photo of your insides instead of your outsides.

If you please, Zoom.

The invisible X-rays travel out of

the machine then through your body.

When they hit the film,

it makes a picture of what you look like on the inside.

Ooh! Can you take a picture of my insides? Please?

Oh, please, oh, please, oh, ple-e-ease!

OK, but you have to keep still or the picture will be blurry.

Now, here we go.

There. You're all done.

Wow! Look at my insides!

The white parts are your bones.

They make up your skeleton, which supports your body,

helps you stand up straight and move around.

-BOTH:

-Cool.

-Oh, what's that pointy bit?

That's your elbow bone.

It's called a humerus but most people call it the funny bone.

-FELIX:

-Does everyone have a skeleton?

You and Zoe have a skeleton like Messy's,

but some animals have their skeletons on the outside -

like this grasshopper here.

And some animals have no skeletons at all -

like this jellyfish.

Ooh! It's all wibbly and wobbly.

Erm...when's it my turn to be X-rayed?

Oops, sorry. We got carried away with the science for a minute.

Lofty! Please, can you hold your sore finger

in front of the X-ray machine?

Right. Now, we need to compare it to one of your good fingers.

This is the X-ray of the sore finger and this is good finger.

Can you see any difference?

-ZOE GASPS ZOE:

-Lofty's finger is broken!

No wonder it's sore.

That's right, but don't you worry - we can help to fix it.

Oh-h, thank you. You're the best friends a giant could have.

It's a very, very big finger.

We're going to need a lot of glue.

I don't think we'll use glue, Messy.

First, we need to set the bones.

That means they have to be

in exactly the right place so they can mend back together.

We're going to need your help.

We need you to set the bones from the inside.

We'll stay out here with the X-ray

to make sure they set nice and straight.

-ZOE:

-OK, let's go!

-Open wide, Lofty!

-LOFTY GROANS

Where do we go now, Zam?

-ZAM:

-Take a left when you get to the heart -

you'll hear it before you see it.

THUMPING

-FELIX:

-Oh! I think that's the heart, Zoe.

-OK, let's go left.

-ZIM:

-Follow the bones all the way down Lofty's arm

until you get to his fingers.

Look, there's the broken bone.

What do we do now, Zam?

You need to very carefully and very

gently nudge the bone into position

so it looks nice and straight,

just like Lofty's good finger did

-on the X-ray.

-MACHINERY WHIRS

Ooh, got it!

-ZIM:

-Well done, Zoe.

The X-ray is showing that it looks perfectly straight.

Now, let's Okigo!

-We did it!

-Yay!

-LOFTY:

-Ha! Thank you for setting my finger.

Ooh, but it still feels a bit sore.

We need to put a splint on it

to make sure the bones stay in place

so they heal properly.

-ZOE:

-What's a splint?

It's like this... Ha-ha!

-A splint, Messy - not the splits.

-THEY CHUCKLE

-ZIM:

-The splint makes sure the bones stay straight and it's

wrapped up with a bandage to keep the bones in place, then the bones

knit back together over time until the break is completely mended.

After that, the splint can come off

and the finger can wiggle and bend again.

Bones are amazing!

How are we going to make a splint big enough?

-ZOE:

-Oh, I know!

These planks of wood can go on either side.

And we can use this string to hold them in place.

-LOFTY:

-Ooh, good idea, Zoe and Felix.

-ZOE PANTS

-How does that feel now, Lofty?

Oh, it feels a lot better already.

Thank you, everyone!

It'll take a few weeks for the bones to heal, Lofty.

You must rest your finger until they do.

Oh, dear.

I won't able to finish Mustard's new house with only one hand.

-FELIX:

-Oh, don't worry.

If we work as a team, we'll have Mustard's house built in no time.

-LOFTY GASPS

-It's wonderful!

Oh, you've made Mustard very happy. Thank you!

I think we all deserve some milkshake. Ha-ha!

-ALL:

-Yeah!

There's enough for everyone.

ZIM PANTS

This one's for you, Lofty!

Oh, I've never had a milkshake before.

Is it nice?

It's de-e-elicious!

Oh, yum!

That WAS de-e-elicious.

Ah, I've had loads of fun but it's time for me to go home now.

Bye, everyone!

-ALL:

-Bye, Messy!

So, my elbow feels hard because it's a bone.

Bones help me stand up and move around - like this...

HE GIGGLES

Whoops!

Bye!

Balabalaboomboom!
