(music plays)

Two puppets, a boy named Howie and his monkey named Baboo, sit on the grass and watch a bee fly over a flower. They watch the sky change from day to night. Then they fly to space in a rocket. They rotate their heads as they watch clothes spin in a dryer. Then they watch a snail crawl on a big leaf and then they stand outside in the rain sheltered by an umbrella. The sky turns sunny again and a rainbow appears as Howie and Baboo take a hot air balloon ride.

The title of the show reads "Now you know."

The name of the episode reads "HOW DO TADPOLES
TURN INTO FROGS? ."

Howie wears a red scarf over velvet shirt.

Baboo says RIBBIT, RIBBIT.

Howie says I AM SIR CURIOUS OF HOWARD,
AND TODAY
I AM WALKING THROUGH
THE ENCHANTED FOREST.
WHAT IS THIS
I SEE BEFORE ME?
WHY IT IS A BEAUTIFUL WHA-?

Baboo appears wearing a princess costume.

Princess says HELLO!

Howie says PRINCESS?

Princess giggles. She is about to eat an apple.

Howie says PRINCESS! WAIT!
DON'T YOU KNOW THAT
SOMETHING BAD ALWAYS HAPPENS
WHEN PRINCESSES TAKE BITES
OF SHINY RED
MAGICAL LOOKING APPLES.

Princess says BUT I'M HUNGRY.

Howie says DON'T BITE THAT
APPLE PRINCESS!

Princess yells I'M-AH GONNA BITE IT!

Howie says PRINCESS,
DON'T BITE THE APPLE!

She eats the apple and turns into a frog.

Howie cries and says NO, NO!
POOR PRINCESS BABOO,
WHAT ARE WE
GOING TO DO NOW.
OHH.
OH, MAYBE THIS
BOOK WILL HELP.
AH LET'S SEE
UH, HMMM UH UH.

He looks at a page showing a tadpole turning into a frog.

Princess whispers KISS THE FROG.

Howie says HUH?
WHAT, WHAT?
YOU WANT ME TO DO WHAT?

Princess says KISS THE FROG.

Howie says ALRIGHT, IF YOU
THINK IT'LL HELP.
OH WHERE'D HE GO?

Princess says AH HA HA.

Howie says WHAT!
VERY FUNNY, BABOO.
HEY, ACCORDING TO THE BOOK,
TADPOLES TURN INTO FROGS.
BOY, THEY LOOK SO DIFFERENT.
HOW DO TADPOLES
TURN INTO FROGS?

Princess says HMMM.

Howie says ARE YOU THINKING
WHAT I'M THINKING?

Princess says YOU ALMOST
KISSED A FROG.

Howie says NO, NO.
IT'S TIME TO PUT OUT
A QUESTION ALERT!
YEAH.

Howie hits his watch. A question mark appears.

Howie says TO THE SECRET HEADQUARTERS!

Princess mimics in gibberish.

At the tree house, Howie sits at the computer and says I WONDER WHO'S ANSWERED
TODAY'S QUESTION ALERT BABOO.

Baboo says MMHMM.

Howie pushes a button.

Children appear on a split screen and say HI HOWIE. HI BABOO.

Howie says WHOA.
LOOK AT ALL THE QUESTIONEERS.

Baboo says THAT'S A WHOLE BUNCH.

Howie says TODAY'S QUESTION IS,
HOW DO TADPOLES
TURN INTO FROGS?

Baboo says HEH HEH FROGGIES!

Girl 1 says THEY'RE LIKE THAT BIG,
GET THAT BIG
AND THEN A FROG.

Girl 2 says TADPOLES COME FROM EGGS.

Boy 1 says IT NEEDS TO EAT A LOT.

Girl 3 says IT LOSES IT'S TAIL
AND IT GROWS LEGS.

Girl 4 says MAYBE IT JUST GROWS
MORE BODY PARTS.

Girl 5 says THEN IT TURNS TO A BIG
AND FRIENDLY FROG.

Howie says GREAT ANSWERS,
QUESTIONEERS.
I WONDER IF
THERE'S AN EXPERT
WHO CAN HELP US ANSWER
TODAY'S QUESTION?

Sheryl pops up on the screen. She has long brown hair and wears a green polo-shirt.

Sheryl says HI HOWIE, HI BABOO.

Howie says HEY LOOK, IT'S SHERYL.
SHERYL'S AN EXPERT
ON FROGS.

Baboo says RIBBIT. RIBBIT.

Howie says DID THEY START OFF
AS TADPOLES TOO?

Sheryl says ALL FROGS START
OFF AS TADPOLES.

Howie says BUT THEY LOOK
LIKE LITTLE FISH.
HOW DOES SOMETHING THAT
LOOKS LIKE A LITTLE FISH
TURN INTO A FROG?

Baboo says YEAH.

Sheryl says THEY DO LOOK
LIKE LITTLE FISH.
BUT LIKE ANYTHING
THAT'S ALIVE,
THEY'LL START OFF SMALL
BUT THEY'LL CHANGE
AS THEY GROW OLDER.

WHEN WE WERE BABIES?

Howie says OH HO, NO WAY.

Baboo says NUH-UH.

Sheryl says WHAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT US

Howie says OH, WERE BIGGER.
AND UHH OH OUR ARMS
AND LEGS ARE LONGER.

Sheryl says EXACTLY.
YOU SEE THE MOMMY FROG
LAYS A BUNCH OF EGGS
IN THE WATER.
SOON THE EGGS
HATCH INTO TADPOLES.

An animation shows the process explained.

Sheryl continues THEN THE TADPOLES
GET BIGGER
AND START TO GROW
ARMS AND LEGS
AND THEIR TAILS
START TO SHRINK.
WE CALL THESE
TADPOLES WITH LEGS
FROGLETS.
FINALLY,
WHEN THE TAIL IS ALL GONE
AND THE ARMS AND LEGS
HAVE GROWN ALL THE WAY
IT BECOMES A FROG.

Howie says UMM, SHERYL DO
FROGS LIVE ON LAND
OR IN WATER?

Sheryl says THE AMAZING THING
IS THAT FROGS
CAN LIVE ON LAND
AND IN THE WATER.
THESE TYPE OF ANIMALS
ARE CALLED AMPHIBIANS.

Howie and Baboo say WHOA.
AMPHIBIANS.

Howie says SO TADPOLES
ARE FROG BABIES
THAT START OUT
LOOKING KINDA LIKE FISH.
THEN THEY START
GROWING ARMS AND LEGS
AND THEIR TAILS
START TO SHRINK.

Baboo says OH UH FROGLETS!

Howie says AND THEN THEY GET BIGGER,
AND THEIR TAILS SHRINK AWAY
UNTIL THEY'RE
FULL GROWN FROGS.

Sheryl says YOU GOT IT HOWIE.

Howie says THANKS SO MUCH SHERYL.
