Move with Tom, he needs you to save the day and do Tree Fu!

Yeah!

HE SIGHS

-Hey, Twigs!

-Tom! Phew. It's so hot today.

I know - baking hot.

So what do you do to keep cool in Treetopolis?

Well...

We pick some Frosty Berries, squish 'em all up

and make frosty berry smoothies

and then drink them under a twirling squizzle wingseed, like this.

HE GRUNTS AND CHANTS

Super Repeater!

-Ah!

-Ah, it's even better with a frosty berry smoothie.

-Let's get picking!

-Yay!

-LAUGHTER ARIELA:

-Tom! Twigs!

I got me a heap of trouble that's going to need your help.

Sorry, Ariela, we're, um, busy.

We've got very important stuff to do.

Looks to me like you're picking frosty berries.

Eh? Oh, er... Huh? Where did these come from? Ha!

-How can we help, Ariela?

-I knew he was going to say that.

All this sun's brought up a bunch of weeds over at the ranch.

It's too big a job for me to get rid of 'em on my lonesome.

We'd be glad to help.

But, Tom, the smoothies, the wingseeds...

We can do all that later, Twigs. Come on!

HE SIGHS I'll be right back.

I'm missing you already!

Hiya, Teabiscuit.

He's giving me a hand too - these warble weeds are a big problem.

-THEY GASP

-Wow!

Whoa! That is big.

Warble weeds? That's a funny name for a weed.

-LOUD WARBLING

-Not if you touch 'em!

WARBLING CONTINUES

Actually, it's a good name for them!

It's getting louder!

Yep! The bigger they are, the louder and longer they sing and then...

HIGH-PITCHED NOTE, POP!

Whoa! What just happened!?

Seeds. It blasts 'em everywhere.

At least it's stopped making that loud noise!

But now, we've got a whole new set of problems.

-Agh, there's more.

-Whoa! That was fast!

-Oh! I knew it would be fine.

-Easy. Come on, then, Twigs.

I'm on it.

HE GRUNTS AND PANTS

BOTH GRUNT

Well, the little ones are easy to get rid of,

but if you leave them to grow, you need more than pulling power.

-Go get 'em, Teabiscuit.

-TEABISCUIT GROWLS

Look out!

GROWLING

The big uns take more persuading. Come on, fellas, lend a hand.

Oh, we missed it!

WARBLING BEGINS

Let's go round again. We'll get it this time.

We got it!

-Yes!

-Woo-hoo!

-Yee-ha!

Job done! Come on, Tom - let's get back to those frosty berries.

Er, fellas, I'm afraid there's a little more weedin' to do.

What?! All of them?!

Yep, they all need pullin' out or cuttin' down

before they grow big and start warblin' and spittin' seeds.

-Eugh!

-Whoa!

Looks like you WILL need our help, Ariela.

Thanks, Tom, I sure do.

Me an' Teabiscuit'll get to work in the top field.

I need you two to plough the weeds out of this field

and check by the barn.

We'll get right to it, Ariela.

Come on, Tom. I'll get the plough, you start weeding the little ones.

HE GRUNTS

HE GASPS

It's heavier than it looks.

Looks like we'll have to use magic

to pick up the plough to get rid of the weeds.

So we need to do the moves that turn our magic powers on.

Come on, join in - time for Tree Fu!

We need to turn the magic on.

We need to save the day, come on.

Just follow me and you will see the magic comes from you and me!

To make Tree Fu spells, do what you see.

Slide to the side.

And jump right back.

Hold your hands up high.

Spin around, reach up for the sky!

Touch your nose.

Now make a pose.

Clap your hands. Touch your knees and run with me.

When you move, you make the magic.

Do what I do to make the magic.

Turn that, turn that, turn that, turn that Tree Fu magic on!

Look! The sapstone in my belt is glowing!

Moving turned our magic on!

Thanks for your help.

Time to get that plough back on its wheels.

TWIGS WAILS

I'm too hot and tired! I can't go on any longer!

Come on, Twigs, let's use magic! The sooner we get started,

the sooner we can make frosty berry smoothies.

Huh! In that case, let's go, go, go, go, go, go!

BOTH: Lifto!

Let's get moving!

-Are we finished yet?

-Keep pushing.

TOM GRUNTS AND SIGHS

Is it just me or is the plough getting heavier?

It's just you.

Twigs!

All right, all right!

TWIGS WAILS Aw, we're never going to finish!

We're going to be ploughing for ever.

Ah!

There, all done!

What? Huh! Yay! I knew we'd get it done.

-Frosty berries here we c...

-But now, we have to check over by the barn.

Aw! Boo!

Look, there are weeds here, too. Ariela was right.

Oh, but Tom we're going to need the plough to get rid of these ones

and it's all the way back up in the field

and I'm hot and I'm tired and I need a frosty berry smoothie.

Me too, Twigs, but we've got a job to do for Ariela.

Oh, but just think about the lovely frosty berry juice.

-All cool and bubbly and fruity.

-Mmm, that would be nice.

-Huh! We could get a curly straw from Zigzoo...

-A curly straw?

Yeah! Everything tastes better through a curly straw.

That sounds great! I'm not sure we should leave these weeds, though.

Aw, come on. They're not big enough to warble yet.

They'll have to grow twice the size. We've got ages!

Yeah, I suppose.

-Maybe we could have a berry break, as long as we're quick.

-Exactly!

We can have a "berry" quick treat

and then, we can come back and finish the job later! Hee-hee!

Yeah, let's do it.

Yay!

HE HUMS TO HIMSELF

Phew!

Tom and Twigs! How can I help you?

Hello, Zigzoo. We were wondering if we could...

Your curly straws! Can we borrow them?! Now! Right now! PLEASE!

Oh, well, I'm sure I could find a couple for you.

Thanks. Do you want to have a frosty berry smoothie with us?

Oh, no, thank you. I'm busy fitting new sap cells in all my machines.

-Sounds like a big job.

-Oh, indeed it is.

But if I get the job done now,

then all my machines will run smoothly for the rest of the week.

Zigzoo, it's scorching! You should give yourself the day off.

Oh, I really don't think so. I like to get a job done.

On a day like this?!

Yeah, you never know if it's going to be this sunny again.

Mmm, it is a hot day to work.

Ooh. Oh, OK.

Let's do it. I'll get the straws...

Hoo-hoo!

Whoa there, Teabiscuit.

Phew-ee! We're all done.

TEABISCUIT PANTS

WARBLING IN THE DISTANCE

Uh-oh! Sounds like warble weeds! Big uns, too!

LOUD WARBLING

Whoa! Oh, no, aphids! You set 'em warbling!

My beetles!

-WOOD SHAKES AND CRACKS

-Whoa! Whoa-oh!

Whoa! Ah!

WARBLING CONTINUES, SHE PANTS

-LOUD THUD

-Agh! Ah!

Oh, the noise is going to break the barn!

WARBLING CONTINUES, GROWING LOUDER

Frosty berry smoothies are brilliant!

They make you go... Ooh, ooh, ooh! Snort!

SOFT GROWLING

-Ha! You sound like Teabiscuit.

-SOFT GROWL

I do believe that IS Teabiscuit.

Hello! What are you doing here?

GRUNTING

I think he's trying to tell us something.

SOFT GROWLING

I think he's trying to say...

-"Enjoy your smoothies"?

-No!

SOFT GROWL

Maybe there's something wrong at the ranch. Come on!

I'll fetch my wagon!

Oh, no! I'm never going to get my smoothie!

He-e-elp!

Aargh! The roof's going to come off!

-Oh, no! The warble weeds are huge!

-And they're warbling!

Tom! Twigs! Where've you been?!

You were supposed to clear the weeds.

We're sorry, Ariela - the weeds weren't that big.

We thought we could have a break.

Well, now, they're going to break down my barn!

Oh, no!

-Quick, Twigs.

-THEY GRUNT

We need the plough!

No time!

We're going to need Big World Magic

to squeeze the warble weeds' mouths shut

and save Ariela, the beetles and the barn.

So I need your help.

It's time to do the Super Squeeze spell!

Are you ready? Tree Fu Go!

Copy me into your spell pose.

OK, start by putting both of your arms up into the air.

Spread your fingers.

Squeeze one hand, squeeze your other hand

and squeeze your hands together.

Arms out to the side. Fingers spread.

Squeeze one hand, squeeze the other hand,

squeeze your hands together!

Well done. Same moves again.

Arms up, fingers spread, squeeze one, squeeze two,

now squeeze together!

To the side. Squeeze one, squeeze two, squeeze together.

Now clap, say, "Super Squeeze," to send the magic to me.

"Super Squeeze!"

WARBLING CONTINUES

Whoa-oh!

-MUFFLED WARBLING

-Woah-oof!

Phew! Nice save, Tom! Thanks, guys.

Yes, we did it! Thanks for your help.

Tom! The magic won't last!

Ariela, use your lasso!

I've got 'em, Tom! But I can't hold 'em for long!

They look like they're going to burst!

If they do, there'll be warble seeds everywhere.

Oh, no, we're doomed!

Never fear!

Zigzoo's here!

My Helping Hand will clear these weeds.

-We're saved!

-Yay, Zigzoo!

-Go get 'em!

Wahey. We're saved! Wooh, ooh, handy!

Off we go-o-o-o-o...

oh.

Oh, dear. The sap cell's empty. I didn't replace it earlier.

Aargh! Why not?! Oh, the frosty berries.

Ooh, empty too!

Oh, if only I'd changed them when I was going to.

Now I have to run all the way back to my workshop for spares.

Zigzoo, we haven't got time. The weeds are going to...

POP! ALL: Agh! Oof!

Aargh! More seeds!

They've scattered everywhere!

Come on, we've got to stop them before they grow!

-And we have to get some full sap cells!

-Whoa!

-Come on!

-Oh, Ariela!

And, Teabiscuit, keep everyone away from those weeds.

We don't want 'em warbling again.

THEY SQUEAL, TEABISCUIT PANTS

There's one! And it's landing!

Ha-ha! Easy peasy!

That's three.

-But there were three more. Where did they go?

-I dunno.

We've got to find them, and fast!

OK, garden. Rickety's here with some water.

Eh?

I don't remember planting you.

LOUD WARBLING

Whoa-oh! Oh! Oof!

I think we've found them!

Yes, there they are! And they've grown huge!

-RICKETY:

-Whoa! Oh, oh!

Help, Tom! Their singing is going to bring the house down!

And they're ready to pop!

There'll be warble weeds all over Treetopolis!

We're all DOOMED!

I've got an idea.

-We need to pull the giant warble weeds out of the ground....

-Whoa!

..before they spread their seeds everywhere

and the only way we can do it is with Big World Magic.

-Whoa!

-So I need your help.

It's time to do the Super Pull Spell. Are you ready?

Tree Fu Go!

Right copy me, into your spell pose.

Feet apart, arms up - like a strong man.

Imagine you're holding a rope. On one side, grab and pull.

The other side, grab and pull. Four pulls to the front.

One. Two. Three. Four.

Crouch down, reach up and pull.

Really good. Same moves again.

Strong man.

Grab and pull. Grab and pull.

One. Two. Three. Four.

Crouch, reach up and pull.

Now clap and say, "Super Pull," to send the magic to me.

Super Pull!

LOUD WARBLING

Whoa-oh!

Yes, we did it! Thanks for your help.

-Woo-hoo! Hoo-hoo-hoo!

-Oh, thank you, Tom.

Nice work, good buddy. Now can we have our frosty berry smoothies!?

Not yet.

First, we have to completely clear the weeds from the ranch.

HE WHIMPERS: But, Tom, the smoothies!

It'll be better if we sort the problem now

before it becomes an even bigger job.

B-But... Oh, oh...

You're right, Tom. Come on, then.

Bye!

Oh, no, there's more weeds!

Aw! I think we need to cancel smoothie time, don't we?

Wow, guys, thanks. I know how important your smoothie time is.

It's what we should have done to begin with.

We've got this, Ariela, don't worry.

Well, all right! We'll get the big fellas.

Indeed we will!

-BOTH: Phew!

-All done.

Oh, I'm so hot and tired!

I don't think I'll ever be able to move again.

Well, that's a shame.

You won't be able to drink your frosty berry smoothie!

TWIGS WHOOPS AND CHEERS

-I don't feel tired at all!

-Ha-ha-ha! Oh, yes!

Ha-ha! Here you go!

TEABISCUIT PANTS, SNIFFS AND GROWLS GENTLY

ALL: Yay.

LAUGHTER

Wow! Frostylicious!

So co-ho-ho-ho-old! HE WARBLES LOUDLY

CONCERNED GROWLING

It's all right, Teabiscuit!

That warbling ain't another weed. It's just Twigs.

LAUGHTER

Mmm, that's great. It's time for me to go now.

-Bye, everyone.

-Bye, good buddy.

-So long, Tom.

-Goodbye, Tom.

Thanks for helping me in Treetopolis!

See you soon for another adventure!

Bye for now!
