Rise of the Hydraclops Odd Squad

My name is Agent Olive.

This is my partner, Agent Otto.

This is my lucky pencil.

But back to Otto and me.

We work for an organisation run by kids that investigates

anything strange, weird and especially odd.

Our job is to put things right again.

Who do we work for?

We work for...

Thank you so much for coming, Odd Squad.

What seems to be the problem, sir?

So I'm sitting here, trying to catch up on a bunch of work,

but every time I click this pen...

It's easier if I just show you.

BOTH: Whoa!

It just keeps going.

BOTH: Whoa!

And watch.

-BOTH: Whoa!

-I know!

Question - how did you start at your house?

That wasn't even my house. I haven't been home for six weeks.

Not to worry, sir. We have a fix.

Don't use this pen any more.

Oh, yeah.

Use one of ours.

Oh! Thanks, Odd Squad.

Have a great day.

Wait, where am I flying to?

We're going to Boston.

Oh. I've got family there.

Hey, Oscar. Happy Friday.

-It's Friday today?!

-What's wrong?

I thought today was Thursday and it's Friday!

That means the arrival's happening today.

-The arrival is happening today?

-It is!

-Everyone, stop!

What's arriving?

-The Hydraclops. ALL:

-Whoa!

This photo was taken 100 years ago.

Imagine how terrifying it'll be in colour.

If that thing rises out of the town lake, it'll destroy the whole world.

-How do we stop it?

-Well, that's the good news.

When I was five years old, I realised the Hydraclops was coming,

so I created a powerful weapon and buried it.

It is done.

This diagram shows where the weapon is buried.

It also has some pictures on it, like this tree and the water...

Quit the fancy talk! It's a map.

Oh, yeah, that's a way better word for it.

Olive and Otto, go help Oscar find that weapon.

Agent Olaf!

I'm Olaf.

You're coming with me to get everyone away from the town lake.

Yay!

This is serious stuff, Olaf.

Maybe I should pick someone else to go...!

-Come on, guys.

-Oscar!

Yeah?

-The map.

-Oh, yeah, I forgot.

So glad you guys are doing this with me.

The map says that the treasure's buried exactly

ten Normans away from this tree.

What's a Norman?

My favourite teddy bear when I was five.

Erm, couldn't you of measured with a ruler, like everyone else does?

Yeah, and just hand over the world to the Hydraclops!

Rulers are everywhere. There's only one Norman.

Hello! Brrrtrrr.

Ahem.

The point is, even if the Hydraclops got my map,

he wouldn't have my teddy bear to measure with,

-so he couldn't find the treasure.

-How are we supposed to do this?

The map says the treasure's buried ten teddy bears away from the tree,

but we only have one.

Yeah, but watch.

As long as you keep your place,

you can use the same teddy bear ten times.

You've just got to make sure that, when you start a new bear,

you get its head right up to the line that you make with your finger.

That way you know that you're measuring really carefully.

Whee!

What?! Norman likes it when I make noises.

Whee!

A little later...

and ten.

-This must be it.

-Excellent. I'll use the undigganator.

And I'll get Norman.

There it is.

Got it.

-What?!

-Another map!

-Of course.

What did you think,

I'm just going to hand over the world to the Hydraclops?

The map says that the next treasure chest is exactly 50 granola bars

-from this spot.

-What kind of granola bar?

-There are short ones, long ones and normal sized ones.

-Good question.

I measured using my favourite granola bar, which is a Schmumber Crunch.

-There should be some more back at headquarters.

-OK, you two go.

-I'll stay here and keep guard.

-Really? But you love food.

-Yeah, I'm cool.

-OK.

Let's go.

You're so adorable!

Ma'am, we've got an odd situation.

You'll need to leave the beach.

But I'm relaxing.

This is the Hydraclops.

He last rose 100 years ago

and now he's about to come out of there, doing this.

SCREAMING AND GROANING

Well, when you put it that way...

SHE SCREAMS

Good work, Agent Olaf. Go do the same thing to them.

GROANING

-I can't find Schmumber Crunch anywhere.

-Me neither.

-Hey, guys.

-Oh, hey, hey, hey.

-Did you see that?

-I know, O'Malley's always so friendly.

No, he was holding a Schmumber Crunch bar!

BOTH: O'Malley!

-Stop running!

-Why are you chasing me?

BOTH: O'Malley!

-What do you want?

-Official Odd Squad business. We need that snack.

-Official Odd Squad business? No.

-You don't understand.

-It's the only way to stop the Hydraclops.

-Good one.

-Wait!

We don't actually need the bar.

-We don't?

-You don't?

We just did something as long as the bar

and we can use that to measure with.

Just, please, can we borrow the granola bar?

Thank you.

-Too long.

-How about this eraser?

-Too short.

-How about this sword?

Why do you have a sword?

For dragons.

Some people.

How about this pencil?

-It's the exact same length!

-Let's go save the world.

Thanks for your help, O'Malley.

47, 48, 49, 50.

Here.

Got it.

BOTH: Another map!

What do you think? I'm just going to hand over...

Hand over the world. We get it, we get it.

I promise this is the last treasure chest we need to find.

It'll be easy because I measured using 100 of my own footsteps.

Let's go heel-to-toe.

One, two, three, four...

A little even more later...

98, 99, 100.

Here.

-What?!

-Where is it?

-I counted exactly 100 steps.

What do we do now?

-I don't know.

-But you're supposed to know!

-I know!

PHONE RINGS

-Yello.

-Where's that weapon?!

Sorry, Ms O. We ran into a small problem.

Well, fix it! The Hydraclops is starting to rise!

We can only hold this thing off for so long.

The map said 100 footsteps.

Maybe you wrote it wrong.

I'm sure your handwriting has changed since you were five.

That's it! You buried the chest when you were five.

When you were that little, your feet were little.

-Olive's right!

-And because your feet are bigger now,

it won't take as many footsteps to get to the treasure.

So we...

We have to measure with the length of your five-year-old foot.

How do we figure out the length of your five-year-old foot?

Easy.

Let's see here. Seven-year-old shoes, four-year-old shoes...

Ah! Five-year-old shoes.

I'd love to talk about how weird that it is but we don't have time.

ALL: 97, 98, 99, 100!

Moment of truth, guys.

ALL: Yes!

-Got it.

-Come on, Norman, let's save the day.

-We got it, Ms O.

-Just in time. We can't hold him off any longer.

Look...

Oscar, get the weapon.

ALL: A sock?!

Not just a sock, it's a really stinky sock

because it's been buried for so long.

How is a sock going to stop the Hydraclops?

It is effective because the Hydraclops monster has

heightened olfactory sense due to its increase in nostril capacity.

ALL: What?!

It has a big nose for smelling. Yay!

Go back to the depths from which you came from...

GROANING

ALL: Yeah! Whoo!

Great work, team. Everyone is safe.

At least for the next 100 years.

What?

-And then he'll be returning with his brothers and sisters.

-What?!

Everyone, socks off.
