0:00:40 > 0:00:43What I mean is you're always talking.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45You always say that.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Because you're always talking.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03- What does it do?- It's a timer.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07It will time how many beeps you can keep quiet for.
0:01:07 > 0:01:12Loads of beeps. I could be quiet for ages and ages.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15OK, what about ten beeps?
0:01:15 > 0:01:17No problem.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21Ooh, ten whole beeps of silence.

0:04:58 > 0:05:01Agent 79 here. Somebody stop them.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03They didn't have enough time.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07OK, now we need to find out who's doing this.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10SHE CACKLES
0:05:10 > 0:05:14- And I think I'm beginning to guess. - Spooky Spoon!
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Putting the data on screen.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19# Oh-oh One, two, three
0:05:19 > 0:05:22# She's mean, she's bossy She's very cruel
0:05:22 > 0:05:25# She thinks she's great She thinks she's cool
0:05:25 > 0:05:29# She's only plastic but she thinks she's fantastic
0:05:29 > 0:05:34# Who does she think she is? Spooky Spoon. #
0:05:34 > 0:05:40Oh, well, if it's not my numbery friend, 5.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43I'm no friend of yours, Spooky Spoon.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Ooh, charmed, I'm sure.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Well, let me tell you, 5,
0:05:48 > 0:05:51I'm having fun today.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55I'm making sure nobody's got enough time to do anything!
0:05:55 > 0:05:58Spooky Spoon makes you seem quiet.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02People need time to do things properly.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06Well, they're not going to get it, are they?
0:06:06 > 0:06:08SHE CACKLES
0:06:08 > 0:06:11'I didn't let her have enough time to get dressed.'
0:06:11 > 0:06:13SPOOKY SPOON SNIGGERS
0:06:13 > 0:06:15'Nor him!'
0:06:16 > 0:06:18We've got to stop Spooky Spoon.
0:06:18 > 0:06:23It's Agent 95 here. They all need more time to do things.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Getting the Brain Gain machine going.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28HUMMING
0:06:31 > 0:06:34# Brain Gain, Brain Gain To sort the problem, use our brains
0:06:34 > 0:06:37# The way to get your brains all linking

0:06:39 > 0:06:42Getting brain power now. Brain Gain!

0:06:45 > 0:06:49Give them more time! Give them more time!
0:06:53 > 0:06:58Give them more time! Give them more time!
0:06:58 > 0:06:59Ooh, ooh, ooh!
0:06:59 > 0:07:05So, you want people to have more time.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08Next.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15'The waitress is taking too much time now.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19'The food will be freezing by the time it gets there.'
0:07:19 > 0:07:22SHE LAUGHS
0:07:23 > 0:07:25We haven't stopped Spooky Spoon.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29If people don't have enough time or have too much time,
0:07:29 > 0:07:31anything could happen.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35If there was never enough time to wash your face,
0:07:35 > 0:07:38in the end you'd get so dirty,
0:07:38 > 0:07:42plants might start growing on your face.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47And if there was never enough time to get dressed,
0:07:47 > 0:07:49you'd have to go out in your pyjamas.
0:07:49 > 0:07:54And then, if Spooky Spoon gave you too much time outside,
0:07:54 > 0:07:57you'd be out there for ages and ages
0:07:57 > 0:08:00and get covered in snow.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05We've got to stop that Spooky Spoon messing about with time.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11You've got to find out exactly how much time things take.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14If you time things, you know how long they take.
0:08:14 > 0:08:19Of course! We can use my Beeper!
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Do some timing! Do some timing!
0:08:22 > 0:08:265, can you find someone who Spooky Spoon hasn't messed up yet?
0:08:26 > 0:08:29A woman over there looks OK.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32'OK, let's time her drinking.'
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Ready for timing.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38- 'Here she goes.- Start timing.'
0:08:39 > 0:08:42One, two, three...
0:08:43 > 0:08:46four, five.
0:08:47 > 0:08:52- Five beeps.- OK, now we need to find someone dressing.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54'That boy's doing his coat up.'
0:08:54 > 0:08:56Starting timing.
0:08:56 > 0:09:00'One, two, three...'
0:09:01 > 0:09:04four, five,
0:09:04 > 0:09:08six, seven, eight.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11That's eight beeps for that boy doing his coat up.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14Now we know how much time things take.
0:09:14 > 0:09:19Well, time for me to have a bit more fun.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Oh, no, it isn't.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23Get ready with Brain Gain.
0:09:23 > 0:09:29I can make people take as much time as I want them to.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32Like drinking.
0:09:32 > 0:09:37- Oh, no, you can't. - The lady drinking takes five beeps.
0:09:37 > 0:09:42Take too much time.
0:09:42 > 0:09:43Take five beeps.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45One,
0:09:45 > 0:09:47two,
0:09:47 > 0:09:48three,
0:09:48 > 0:09:51four, five.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53SHE SCREAMS
0:09:53 > 0:09:56We've fixed the time things take.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58No!
0:09:58 > 0:10:02Hmm! I'll fix this child getting dressed.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Doing up coat - eight beeps.
0:10:09 > 0:10:10'One,

0:10:16 > 0:10:18'six,
0:10:18 > 0:10:20'seven, eight.'
0:10:20 > 0:10:23SHE SHOUTS ANGRILY
0:10:23 > 0:10:26We can time anything, Spooky Spoon,
0:10:26 > 0:10:28and stop you messing it up.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Oh, can you?
0:10:31 > 0:10:34Ha! Can you stop me messing you up?
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Run for it, 5!
0:10:41 > 0:10:44I'll catch you, 5!
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Let's make you blink
0:10:51 > 0:10:54for a very long time.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58- I can't see! - She's near the edge!
0:10:58 > 0:11:03- She's going to fall! - Make her fall take lots of time!
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Lots of time! Lots of time!
0:11:05 > 0:11:06Oh, no!
0:11:06 > 0:11:08'One,
0:11:08 > 0:11:09'two,
0:11:09 > 0:11:11'three,
0:11:11 > 0:11:13'four,
0:11:13 > 0:11:14'five,
0:11:14 > 0:11:16'six,
0:11:16 > 0:11:18'seven,
0:11:18 > 0:11:19'eight,
0:11:19 > 0:11:21'nine,
0:11:21 > 0:11:23- 'ten.'- 'Yeah!'
0:11:23 > 0:11:27Taking lots of time, nice and slow!
0:11:27 > 0:11:32Ooh! You Numberjacks think you're so clever.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36We are, because we use our brains to think.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39Well, think about this -
0:11:39 > 0:11:42I am going to be around
0:11:42 > 0:11:46for a very long time.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50- Not if we can help it. - Set the Beeper to zero beeps.
0:11:50 > 0:11:56Spooky Spoon's going to be around for no time at all.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58- No time at all.- Zero time.
0:11:58 > 0:12:04I am going to be around making trouble for... Ah!
0:12:04 > 0:12:08- For no time at all. - Come back now, 5, well done.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Here I come!
0:12:14 > 0:12:16All clear for landing.
0:12:18 > 0:12:23- ALL:- One, two, three, four, five!
0:12:26 > 0:12:30- Well done, 5. - I needed a lot of help.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33A lot of thinking going on back here.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Now see it on screen.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Spooky was stopping people having the time to do things.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43No time for eating.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Or for getting dressed.
0:12:45 > 0:12:49We made Spooky give people more time.
0:12:49 > 0:12:54But they had too much time. That's when the Beeper came in handy,
0:12:54 > 0:12:58so we could say exactly how long things should take.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01Spooky was after you.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05- I couldn't see. - Lots of time to fall slowly.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08No time at all for Spooky Spoon.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15Now what I've done, 5, is set the Beeper to zero,
0:13:15 > 0:13:18which means 3 can be noisy for no time at all.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21- I see.- No time at all.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24No time at all for being silent?
0:13:24 > 0:13:28No, no time at all for being noisy.
0:13:28 > 0:13:33I prefer no time for being silent.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35So lots of time for being noisy!
0:13:35 > 0:13:39- Oh, no!- Yes! Yargle bargle bingle bangle boo!
0:13:39 > 0:13:42I love making noise! Don't you!
0:13:42 > 0:13:45What can you find that shows how much time something takes?
0:13:45 > 0:13:48Have a look for things and call the Numberjacks.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50..bingle bangle boo!
0:14:00 > 0:14:02# The Numberjacks are on their way
0:14:02 > 0:14:05# The Numberjacks are on their way. #
