Transcript: Elephant Brains
Music plays as the Wild Kratts logo pops up and a voice says Wild Kratts!
Then, a globe spins and Southern Asia appears highlighted. A clip shows images of an elephant.
The Kratt brothers appear. Chris wears a green shirt and Martin wears a blue shirt.
Martin says ON THE
CONTINENT OF ASIA
IN THE FOREST AND GRASSLANDS
LIVES A GIANT AMONG CREATURES,
THE ASIAN ELEPHANT.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
Chris says HEY, IT'S US,
THE KRATT BROTHERS.
I'M CHRIS.
Martin says I'M MARTIN.
THERE ARE ONLY TWO DIFFERENT
SPECIES OF ELEPHANTS
IN THE WORLD AND WE'VE
GOTTEN TO KNOW BOTH OF THEM
REALLY WELL ON OUR
CREATURE ADVENTURES.
Chris says SO, SEE IF YOU CAN
TELL THE DIFFERENCE.
WHICH IS
THE ASIAN ELEPHANT,
AND WHICH IS THE
AFRICAN ELEPHANT?
A split screen shows an elephant to the right and a darker skinned one to the left.
Martin says ARE YOU READY FOR THE ANSWER?
Chris points at the lighter elephant and says WELL, THAT'S THE ASIAN ELEPHANT.
Martin says AND THAT'S THE
AFRICAN ELEPHANT.
Chris says AT FIRST GLANCE,
THEY LOOK PRETTY SIMILAR,
BUT CHECK OUT THEIR EARS.
SEE ANY DIFFERENCES?
Martin says THE AFRICAN ELEPHANTS
EARS ARE BIGGER AND HANG LOWER.
EARS ARE A LOT SMALLER
AND SHORTER, AND THEIR
TRUNKS ARE DIFFERENT, TOO.
IN THE AFRICAN ELEPHANT, SEE
THOSE TWO TINY PROJECTIONS
ON THE END OF HIS TRUNK?
DO YOU SEE THAT?
THEY USE THEIR TIPS OF
THEIR TRUNK LIKE FINGERS.
THEY HAVE TWO OF 'EM
ON THE END OF THE TRUNK
AND THEY CAN
JUST PICK UP DELICATE,
TINY LITTLE THINGS LIKE A LEAF.
Martin laughs and says AND
THEY'RE GREAT FOR TICKLING.
THE ASIAN ELEPHANT'S
TRUNK ONLY HAS ONE FINGER,
BUT IT'S STILL
GREAT FOR GRABBING.
Chris says SO YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE ARE
SOME VERY IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN ASIAN ELEPHANTS
AND AFRICAN ELEPHANTS
THAT HELP TELL THEM APART.
BUT THERE'S ONE VERY
IMPORTANT SIMILARITY.
THE CREATURE POWER
OF THE ELEPHANT BRAIN.
Martin says IMAGINE IF WE COULD GET
INSIDE THE HEAD OF THE ELEPHANT,
UNDERSTAND THEIR FEELINGS
AND WHAT THEY'RE THINKING.
Chris says IMAGINE IF WE HAD
ASIAN ELEPHANT POWER.
They both say WHAT IF!
The brothers jump and turn into cartoons. In animation, a paw print appears, followed by a map, and then the brothers swim under the sea and swing from jungle vines.
A song plays and says ON ADVENTURE WITH THE COOLEST CREATURES, FROM THE OCEANS TO THE TREES, THE BROTHERS KRATT ARE GOING PLACES YOU NEVER GET TO SEE, HANGING WITH THEIR CREATURE FRIENDS. GET READY, IT'S THE HOUR, WE'RE GONNA SAVE SOME ANIMALS TODAY WITH CREATURE POWER! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD!
Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy Z send them creature disks from Tortuga, the ship. The brothers place the disks in their suits and morph into superheroes with animal legs and wings. Then, they run, swim and fly with animals in the wild.
The song continues
CHEETAH SPEED AND LIZARD GLIDE, FALCON FLIGHT AND LION PRIDE, GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS. GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS!
The name of the episode appears. It reads "Elephant Brains!"
The team flies around the Earth in the Tortuga.
Aviva says WOW, OUR PLANET EARTH IS
SO BEAUTIFUL FROM UP HERE.
Koki says I KNOW.
THE OCEANS, THE FORESTS,
THAT'S HOME RIGHT DOWN THERE.
Aviva says SO, ARE THE GUYS
READY TO GET STARTED?
Koki says LET'S SEE.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
Koki says YES, I'M LOCKED INTO
CHRIS'S LOCATION IN AFRICA.
AND MARTIN...
I'VE GOT HIM IN ASIA.
INDIA TO BE EXACT.
Aviva says PERFECT.
THEN WE CAN GET STARTED.
Jimmy says STARTED WITH WHAT?
I FORGET.
Aviva says WELL, REMEMBER
THE SAYING, JIMMY,
AN ELEPHANT NEVER FORGETS.
Jimmy says I'M DEFINITELY
NOT PART ELEPHANT.
Aviva laughs and says WE'RE
CHECKING OUT ELEPHANTS.
THERE ARE
TWO BASIC KINDS,
AFRICAN ELEPHANTS
AND ASIAN ELEPHANTS,
AND WE'RE FIGURING
OUT THE DIFFERENCES.
Jimmy says UH-OH, IF THIS
ANYTHING LIKE THE TIME
WE FIGURED OUT THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
AN ALLIGATOR AND
A CROCODILE, I'M OUT!
TOO MANY SUPER SHARP
TEETH IN THAT ADVENTURE.
(JIMMY WHIMPERING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Aviva says DON'T WORRY, JIMMY.
THIS'LL BE MORE
ABOUT SUPER COOL TRUNKS
THAN SUPER SHARP TEETH.
Koki says TORTUGA TO KRATT
BROTHERS, DO YOU READ?
Chris pops up on a holo screen and says CHRIS HERE WITH SOME
AFRICAN ELEPHANTS.
REMEMBER THORNSLEY, THE
RASCALLY LITTLE ELEPHANT
WHO DROVE OFF WITH
OUR TORTUGA?
Jimmy says HOW COULD WE FORGET?
Aviva gasps and says HI, THORNSLEY!
(PLAYFUL MUSIC)
The elephant steals Chris' creature pod.
He says HUH? HEY.
GET YOUR LITTLE TRUNK
FINGERS OFF MY CREATURE POD.
Aviva says OH YEAH, THOSE TWO LITTLE
TRUNK FINGERS CAN REALLY GRAB.
Koki says ESPECIALLY THORNSLEY'S.
Chris says GIVE IT BACK, BUDDY.
(GROANS) HEY!
UM, A LITTLE HERE.
Chris says I'LL GET BACK TO YOU!
Aviva says THAT LITTLE THORNSLEY
IS TROUBLE.
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
Koki says INCOMING COM FROM MARTIN.
Martin says HEY, GANG.
BLUE BACKPACK HERE.
I FOUND SOME ASIAN
ELEPHANTS.
HUH, THEY LIVE IN MATERNAL HERDS
JUST LIKE AFRICAN ELEPHANTS DO.
THE MATRIARCH FEMALE,
HER SISTERS, AND THEIR BABIES.
THIS LITTLE GIRL
IS ONLY ONE YEAR OLD
AND REALLY FRIENDLY. (CHUCKLES)
AH! OW!
HEY, PLEASE DON'T
PINCH THE NOSE.
Aviva says AWW.
Koki says SHE'S A SWEETIE.
HEY, NOTICE ANYTHING DIFFERENT
ABOUT THAT TRUNK?
Martin says UH, IT'S ATTACHED TO MY FACE?
Aviva gasps and says ONE FINGER.
Martin says YUP, THAT'S RIGHT.
ASIAN ELEPHANTS HAVE ONE
TRUNK FINGER, NOT TWO.
Aviva says THAT'S DIFFERENCE
NUMBER ONE.
AFRICAN ELEPHANTS HAVE
TWO TRUNK FINGERS.
ASIAN ELEPHANTS HAVE ONE.
Martin says BUT ASIAN ELEPHANTS
CAN STILL PICK UP,
HOLD, AND PINCH
THINGS JUST AS WELL.
UH, I THINK I'LL
NAME YOU FINGERTIP.
YEP, FINGERTIP IT IS.
(ELECTRONIC ZAPPING)
Chris chases the thief elephant and says OKAY, CHRIS HERE.
STILL AFTER THAT CREATURE POD.
HEY, BUT I
THINK FROM THIS ANGLE
YOU CAN SPOT ANOTHER DIFFERENCE.
SEE HOW SMOOTH AFRICAN
ELEPHANTS' HEADS ARE?
AND HOW BIG THEIR EARS ARE?
IN FACT THEIR EARS
ARE KINDA SHAPED
LIKE THE MAP OF AFRICA.
Aviva says REALLY?
(COMPUTER BEEPS)
Aviva presses a button on the computer.
Koki says IT MATCHES!
THAT'S COOL.
Aviva says SO SMOOTH HEAD
AND BIG EARS
FOR AFRICAN ELEPHANTS...
Martin says AND BUMPY HEAD
AND SMALLER EARS
FOR ASIAN ELEPHANTS.
Koki says DIFFERENCES
NUMBER TWO AND THREE.
Martin says ELEPHANTS FLAP
THEIR EARS TO KEEP COOL,
SO ASIAN ELEPHANTS REALLY
DON'T NEED BIG EARS
IN THESE ASIAN RAINFORESTS.
Chris says TELL ME ABOUT IT.
IT'S HOT ON THE AFRICAN SAVANNA.
THOSE BIG BUILT IN
FANS COME IN HANDY.
Koki says OH, AND WE CAN'T
FORGET THE SIZE.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE THERE?
Chris says YUP, AFRICAN ELEPHANTS
ARE BIGGER AND HEAVIER.
An elephant hits Chris and sends him towards an anthill.
Chris says DOH! (GRUNTING)
An aardvark approaches him and Chris says HI, SLURPEE.
(TONGUE SLURPING)
Martin says AND ASIAN ELEPHANTS ARE
SMALLER AND LIGHTER.
He picks up a baby elephant.
(GRUNTS)
Koki says YEAH, TRY THAT WITH
AN ADULT ELEPHANT.
Martin says UH, MAYBE LATER.
Aviva says GOT IT.
SO THERE'S A SIZE
DIFFERENCE, TOO.
BUT STILL, ELEPHANTS IN GENERAL
ARE THE BIGGEST LAND
MAMMALS ON THE PLANET.
Chris says SLURPEE, YOU ARE
ONE GREAT DIGGER.
(GASPS) HEY.
YES!
I'VE GOT A PLAN.
(ELECTRONIC MUSIC)
He inserts a disc in his suit, touches Slurpee and says ACTIVATE AARDVARK POWER.
(ELECTRONIC ZAPPING)
He morphs into an aardvark.
He says DIGGING POWER.
(UPBEAT ROCK MUSIC)
(EARTH RUMBLING)
Chris says GOT IT!
HA HA!
He digs a tunnel till he reaches the elephant, grabs his pod and says DIDN'T SEE ME COMIN',
DID YA THORNSLEY?
AWW, THORNSLEY.
Aviva says OH! HE LOOKS SO SAD.
Chris says THORNSLEY, I'M SORRY.
I WAS JUST TRYIN' TO...
I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT
YOUR FEELINGS, BUDDY.
Jimmy chuckles and says FEELINGS?
COME ON, HE'S AN
ELEPHANT NOT A PERSON.
HE DOESN'T
HAVE FEELINGS.
Martin says UH, YES HE DOES.
IN FACT ELEPHANTS,
BOTH AFRICAN AND ASIAN,
ARE REALLY EMOTIONAL CREATURES.
Chris says IN THE WILD ELEPHANTS
EVEN COMFORT EACH OTHER.
CHEER UP, BUD.
Jimmy says COME ON, PEOPLE ARE EMOTIONAL.
SEE, I CAN BE HAPPY.
(CHEERFUL MUSIC)
SAD.
(SOMBER MUSIC)
SCARED.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Koki says SEEN THAT ONE A LOT.
(AVIVA LAUGHS)
Jimmy says VERY FUNNY.
BUT ELEPHANTS AREN'T
EMOTIONAL LIKE PEOPLE ARE.
Chris says SURE THEY ARE, AND
THEY'RE SMART, TOO.
ELEPHANTS HAVE
FEELINGS, EMOTIONS.
THEY HAVE INCREDIBLY
COMPLEX BRAINS.
Jimmy says THEY'RE ANIMALS.
COME ON, GUYS.
Martin says LOOKS LIKE WE'LL
HAVE TO PROVE IT.
Chris says TIME FOR A KRATT
BROTHERS EXPERIMENT.
Martin says UH-OH.
I DON'T ALWAYS LIKE
HOW THESE TURN OUT.
Chris says LET'S ALL MEET IN ASIA!
HERE, YOU CAN PLAY
WITH IT FOR A WHILE.
(PLEASANT MUSIC)
Chris gets on an aircraft and says I'LL BE BACK
FOR IT LATER!
(AIRCRAFT WHOOSHES)
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
(AIRCRAFT HUMMING)
Meanwhile, Paisley lands her vehicle RIGHT ON SCHEDULE.
NOW, LET'S GET TO WORK.
YES, YES, THIS IS A GOOD SPOT.
EWW!
HUH?
LOOK AT THIS MESSY
YUCKINESS THEY CALL NATURE.
IT'S SO ICKY.
(WATER SLOSHING)
Paisley says WE HAVE LOTS OF
IMPROVEMENTS TO MAKE HERE, REX.
OUT WITH THE UGLY TREES
AND STINKY ANIMALS,
AND IN WITH THE
BEAUTIFUL PAVEMENT.
SOME BRICKS, SOME MORTAR.
(TOOLS CLANGING)
Rex says OH, WHAT ARE WE
BUILDING, PAISLEY?
Paisley says A GIGANTIC BUILDING, REX.
THE BIGGEST ONE
ANYONE'S EVER SEEN.
Rex says BUT WHAT'S IT FOR?
Paisley says I DON'T REALLY KNOW
WHAT IT'S FOR YET, REX.
WE CAN FIGURE THAT OUT LATER.
I JUST KNOW IT'LL BE REALLY BIG!
AND BUILDINGS ARE
BETTER THAN TREES.
Rex says EH, WORKS FOR ME.
Paisley says LET'S PAVE THIS PLACE!
An elephant splashes water on her.
(WATER SPLASHES)
(REX AND PAISLEY GRUNT)
Paisley says YUCK!
MUDDY EARTH. (WHIMPERS)
GET IT OFF!
GET IT OFF! (WHIMPERING)
Rex says GOT THE POWER
CLEAN MACHINE.
(MACHINE CLICKS)
He splashes water with a hose and it knocks her over.
(WATER WHOOSHES)
(PAISLEY SCREAMS)
Paisley grunts and says REX!
Rex says AH, SORRY, PAISLEY.
I'LL FIX YOU IN A JIFFY.
HERE WE GO, OKAY.
(MACHINE CLICKING)
Paisley says OH!
(PAISLEY GRUMBLING)
He washes and blow dries her.
(WATER SPLASHES)
(AIR WHOOSHES)
Rex says ALL CLEAN
AND PROPER, PAISLEY.
(PAISLEY GRUNTS)
Paisley sees mud by her feet and says EEK!
She jumps to the side and says BETTER.
NOW, LET'S GET RID OF
THOSE USELESS ANIMALS.
LIKE MR. ELEPHANT
BRAINS OVER THERE.
Rex says SHOO, ELEPHANTS!
COME ON NOW, HIP HIP.
MOVE ALONG THERE, LET'S GO.
OKAY. AH!
The elephant smashes the machine with its trunk.
(TRUNK SMASHING METAL)
Rex says THEY'RE STRONG, PAISLEY.
(WATER SPLASHING)
Paisley says HMM, MAYBE I CAN PUT HIM
TO USE, AT LEAST TEMPORARILY.
Chris ties a fruit crate to a tree brunch using a rope and says OKAY, KRATT BROTHERS
EXPERIMENT NUMBER ONE.
SEE THIS BOX, FINGERTIP?
INSIDE IS YOUR FAVORITE
FRUIT, MANGOES.
USING ANY OF
THIS STUFF HERE,
CAN YOU FIGURE OUT
HOW TO GET TO THE MANGOES?
SHE SMELLS IT ALL RIGHT.
He points at an improvised see-saw on the ground.
Aviva says OH, TOO HIGH TO REACH BEBITA.
Koki says OKAY, LET'S SEE
WHAT YOUR BRAIN'S DOIN'.
(COMPUTER ZAPPING)
Koki scans her brain.
Aviva says OOH, I CAN SEE
HER BRAIN WORKING.
SEE, THAT PART OF THE
BRAIN IS CALLED THE CEREBRUM,
SAME AS OURS.
AND LOOK, OUR SCANNER
IS SHOWING THAT
IT'S VERY ACTIVE RIGHT NOW.
Koki says SO SHE IS THINKING.
AND SINCE HER CEREBRUM
HAS MORE PROCESSING SPACE
THAN ANY LIVING LAND
ANIMAL, IT'LL HELP.
(FOOT THUDS)
Martin says I'M GLAD I'M NOT A PART OF
THIS EXPERIMENT FOR A CHANGE.
An adult elephant picks Martin up with its trunk and Martin says HEY, WAIT.
AH! UH-OH.
The elephant drops Martin on one end of the seesaw.
Chris says CHECK IT OUT.
I THINK SHE'S HELPING
HER BABY FIGURE IT OUT.
Martin says OH NO.
I'M NOT SUPPOSED
TO BE IN THIS
EXPERIMENT!
The elephant steps on the other end of the seesaw and sends Martin up in the air. He knocks down the crate.
(GRUNTS)
Aviva says WOW, SMART MOVE
FINGERTIP'S MOM.
THE MANGO'S CLOSER.
(CHUCKLES)
Martin says YEAH, GLAD TO HELP.
Chris says LOOK, NOW FINGERTIP
HAS AN IDEA.
(WOOD CLATTERING)
Fingertips removes the board from the box.
Koki says BRILLIANT.
BY STANDING ON THE BOX,
SHE CAN REACH HIGHER.
She reaches the crate and makes it drop to the ground.
(CRATE AND FRUIT THUD)
Chris says HA HA!
Koki says YES!
Chris says SHE DID IT!
Aviva says I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
Chris says WOOHOO!
Aviva says WOW!
ELEPHANTS ARE SMART.
Fingertips tosses Martin a mango.
Martin says HA, THANKS FINGERTIP.
WAY TO GO.
Chris says REAL EXPERIMENTS HAVE
PROVEN TO SCIENTISTS
THAT ELEPHANTS CAN LEARN
THINGS AND FIGURE THINGS OUT.
Martin says THAT'S WHY THEY'RE ONE OF
THE WORLD'S SMARTEST ANIMALS,
ON PAR WITH APES,
DOLPHINS, AND WHALES.
Jimmy says OKAY, SO THEY MAY BE SMART,
BUT EMOTIONS? NO WAY.
THAT'S WHAT SEPARATES
US HUMANS FROM ANIMALS.
(BRANCH SNAPS)
Fingertips smacks Jimmy's rear with a stick.
Jimmy says OW!
HEY!
Martin says SHE WAS JUST SWATTING A FLY.
TOOL USE.
ELEPHANTS ARE SO SMART,
THEY USE TOOLS IN THE WILD,
LIKE TREE BRANCHES
AS FLY SWATTERS.
Jimmy says MM-HM.
Meanwhile, Paisley says THESE ELEPHANTS BETTER
NOT PUT ME BEHIND SCHEDULE.
HOW IS THE TRAINING
COMING ALONG, REX?
Rex says WELL, THIS BOOK IS HELPING.
HOW TO TRAIN AN ELEPHANT.
DID YOU KNOW THAT HERE IN INDIA
THEY'VE BEEN USING ELEPHANTS
TO HELP WITH WORK PROJECTS
FOR OVER 4,000 YEARS?
Paisley says HELP?
I'LL BELIEVE IT WHEN I SEE IT.
Rex says HE'S LEARNING
IT FASTER THAN ME.
HE'S SMART.
(ENGINE HUMMING)
Paisley says WE'LL SEE HOW SMART.
NOW GET HIM TO SET THE POSTS.
(GRUNTING) OH.
AH.
(POST THUDS)
Rex says HUH.
SEE?
Paisley says HM.
BUT CAN HE DO IT AGAIN?
I THINK WE'RE IN BUSINESS.
(TENSE MUSIC)
The elephant starts setting all the posts.
(POSTS THUDDING)
Paisley says HUH.
BY MY CALCULATIONS,
WITH THESE BEASTS
I CAN SPEED UP PRODUCTION
BY 300 PERCENT PER BEAST.
REX, WE NEED 500 PERCENT MORE OF THEM.
A WHOLE HERD.
I'LL GET THEM DOING SOMETHING
USEFUL FOR A CHANGE.
(ELEPHANT BELLOWS)
Paisley says I DESPISE NATURE.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Koki looks at the computer and says WHOA!
OVER 250 BILLION NEURONS.
THAT'S A LOT OF BRAIN POWER.
Aviva says I HAD NO IDEA
ELEPHANTS WERE SO SMART.
(COMPUTER ZAPS)
AND THAT MEANS
WE'VE GOT TO UPDATE
OUR ELEPHANT POWER
DISC RIGHT NOW.
Koki says WE'LL BE AT THE TORTUGA, GUYS.
SEE YA LATER.
(UPBEAT ROCK MUSIC)
Martin says OKAY, MEET YA THERE
AFTER SNACK TIME.
He offers Fingertips a mango and says WANT ONE?
(ENGINE RUMBLING)
(SOMBER MUSIC)
(TREES CRASH)
Paisley's paver approaches.
Rex says YEE-HAW!
AM I HERDING THEM
RIGHT, PAISLEY?
Paisley says PRECISELY, REX.
JUST DON'T LET THEM
GET CLOSE TO ME.
Chris says OH NO,
IT'S PAISLEY PAVER
FROM PAVE NATURE INCORPORATED.
The brothers says PAISLEY, STOP!
Paisley says IT'S THE DELAY BROTHERS.
I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS.
IGNORE THEM, REX.
Chris says PAISLEY,
YOU GOTTA STOP!
Paisley says I NEVER STOP.
(CLAPS HANDS)
Paisley says JUST COLLECT
THEM, TOO, REX.
(CLAMPS CLICK)
Rex deploys two clamps and grabs the brothers and Fingertips.
The brothers say WHOA! WAH!
Rex says I GOT THE LITTLE
ONE, TOO, PAISLEY!
Chris says HEY, WHERE
ARE YOU TAKING US?
Paisley says I DON'T HAVE
TIME TO TELL YOU.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
At the Tortuga, Jimmy says YOU GUYS HAVE
DEFINITELY CONVINCED ME THAT
ELEPHANTS ARE SMART,
BUT I'M STILL NOT SOLD
ON THE FEELINGS THING.
Aviva says WELL, HAVE A LOOK AT THIS
PART OF THE BRAIN, JIMMY.
IT'S CALLED
THE HIPPOCAMPUS.
Jimmy says THE HIPPA-WHAT?
Aviva says HIPPOCAMPUS.
IT'S THE PART OF A BRAIN THAT
DEALS WITH EMOTION AND MEMORY.
Koki says AND THE ELEPHANT HAS ONE OF
THE BIGGEST ONES IN THE WORLD.
(ELECTRONIC MUSIC)
Aviva says EVEN IF YOU SHRUNK
AN ELEPHANT'S BRAIN
DOWN TO HUMAN SIZE, ITS
HIPPOCAMPUS WOULD BE
AROUND THE SAME SIZE AS OURS.
Jimmy says SO, IT CONTROLS MEMORY AND
CONNECTS WITH EMOTION, RIGHT?
Koki says YEAH.
ELEPHANTS NEED TO LEARN
AND REMEMBER A LOT,
LIKE WHERE THE WATER
HOLES ARE DURING A DROUGHT.
Jimmy says YEAH, BUT FEELINGS?
Aviva says MAYBE AN ALL NEW ASIAN
ELEPHANT CREATURE POWER DISC
WITH BRAIN TECHNOLOGY
WILL CONVINCE YOU.
READY TO PRINT THE DISCS, JIMMY?
Jimmy says OH YEAH, I'M FEELIN' THAT.
Aviva says PROCESSING.
(COMPUTER ZAPS)
(MACHINERY HUMMING)
(POSTS THUDDING)
Meanwhile, Paisley's minion elephants keeps setting the posts.
Paisley says ISN'T IT BEAUTIFUL?
WE'LL START HERE
AND BEFORE LONG
OUR GLORIOUS CONCRETE METROPOLIS
WILL STRETCH AS
FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE.
Chris says PAISLEY, THERE'S NOTHING
WRONG WITH BUILDING STUFF,
BUT YOU GOTTA BE SMART ABOUT IT.
IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE
TO JUST BUILD STUFF
FOR NO REASON IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE WILDERNESS.
(SOMBER MUSIC)
Paisley says LOOKS LIKE I AM, DOESN'T IT?
AND YOU CAN'T DO
ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(CHAINS JINGLING)
KEEP WORKING. FASTER!
Martin says AND THE ELEPHANTS,
THEY'RE REALLY KIND
AND CARING CREATURES
WITH FEELINGS.
YOU JUST CAN'T
TREAT 'EM THIS WAY.
(POSTS BANGING)
Rex says NO, NO, NO!
PUT THE POST IN THE HOLE.
COME ON, I'M NOT
GOING TO SAY IT AGAIN.
(FEET THUDDING)
(PLODDING ORCHESTRAL MUSIC)
Paisley says WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
DON'T THESE ELEPHANTS
KNOW I HATE DELAYS?
Rex says HA, HE WON'T DO IT.
HE REFUSES TO PUT THE POST IN.
Paisley says THAT'S SILLY.
IT'S A PERFECTLY GOOD
HOLE THAT
She looks down the hole, screams and says SOMETHING'S DOWN THERE.
(ORCHESTRAL MUSIC)
Chris says AN INDIAN CRESTED
PORCUPINE WAS DOWN THERE.
Martin says OUR ELEPHANT DIDN'T
WANT TO HURT HIM.
THAT'S WHY HE WOULDN'T DO IT.
Paisley says THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
IT'S JUST BEING STUBBORN.
Chris says NO, SEE, THEY'RE
KIND AND THEY HAVE FEELINGS.
HE KEPT THE PORCUPINE SAFE.
Paisley says OKAY, BACK TO WORK.
Martin says I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS.
IF ONLY WE HAD OUR CREATURE
PODS TO CALL FOR HELP.
(RHYTHMIC ORCHESTRAL MUSIC)
(GATE CRASHES)
Fingertips uses a log to break free from his cage.
Martin says WOW, NICE THINKIN', FINGERTIP.
The brothers say FINGERTIP, WAIT.
Chris says GET US OUT.
AWW, PAISLEY'S MACHINES
MUST HAVE SCARED FINGERTIP.
Martin says AW, POOR LITTLE ELEPHANT.
BUT SHE SHOULDN'T
BE OUT THERE ALONE.
Fingertips walks towards the Tortuga.
Inside the Tortuga, Aviva says OKAY, IT WON'T
BE LONG NOW, GANG.
PRINTING ASIAN
ELEPHANT POWER DISC.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
ALL THE ELEPHANT
POWERS ARE IN THERE,
SMARTS, FEELINGS, STRENGTH, AND
OF COURSE THE SINGLE TRUNK...
FINGERTIP?
Fingertips walks in.
Aviva says FINGERTIP!
(FINGERTIP BELLOWS)
OH, FINGERTIP,
YOU LOOK SO SAD, SWEETIE.
WHAT'S WRONG?
Koki says AWW, THAT'S NICE AVIVA.
SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE COULD
USE SOME COMFORTING.
WHEN A HERD
MEMBER IS UPSET,
THE REST OF THE HERD
IS THERE FOR THEM,
HUGGING AND TOUCHING
THEM WITH THEIR TRUNKS.
Jimmy says WOW.
Aviva says AWW, POBRECITO.
I WISH WE KNEW WHAT UPSET HER.
Fingertip tries to get a hold of some of the brothers' stuff.
Koki says OKAY, LITTLE GIRL,
EASY WITH CHRIS'S BACKPACK.
NOT MARTIN'S
CREATURE POD, EITHER.
Aviva says KOKI, DO YOU THINK SHE'S
TRYING TO TELL US SOMETHING?
Koki says MAYBE THE GUYS ARE IN TROUBLE.
SOMETHING'S UP.
WE'VE GOTTA FOLLOW HER.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Aviva says FINGERTIP, LEAD THE WAY
WITH THAT AWESOME
ELEPHANT MEMORY.
Paisley says NO BREAKS TODAY,
WORK, WORK, WORK.
Aviva says UH-OH, PAISLEY PAVER'S HERE.
HER PAVING MACHINES ARE
REALLY TOUGH TO STOP.
HM, WE NEED TO BE
SMART ABOUT THIS.
(SOFT MUSIC)
Fingertip sticks some quills out of a porcupine that walks by.
Aviva gasps and says FINGERTIP!
YOU CAN'T DO THAT.
SORRY, LITTLE PORCY.
Koki says FINGERTIP, NO!
COME BACK!
Aviva says WHAT'S SHE DOING?
Fingertip gives quills to the brothers and the other elephants.
Martin says YOU CAME BACK FOR US.
Chris says AWW, I THINK I KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE THINKING,
BUT IT'S NOT A KEY, PAL.
IT'S A PORCUPINE QUILL.
BUT HEY, IT'S WORTH A TRY.
YOUR TURN, MARTIN.
Martin says WAY TO GO, FINGERTIP.
TIME FOR THEM TO
Martin says WATCH AND LEARN.
(FINGERTIP BELLOWS)
They open the locks with the quills.
(LOCK CLICKS)
(BROTHERS GASP)
The brothers say YES!
WE'RE FREE!
(ELECTRIC GUITAR MUSIC)
(LOCKS CLICKING)
The elephant also unlock themselves.
Aviva says YES!
TIME FOR MY SECRET WEAPON.
MARTIN, CHRIS, HOO!
She throws the discs at the brothers.
(PULSATING MUSIC)
The brothers say ACTIVATE
ASIAN ELEPHANT POWER!
(ELECTRONIC ZAPPING)
They touch the elephant and morph into elephants.
(ELEPHANTS BELLOWING)
Rex says HUH?
(MACHINES RUMBLING)
Paisley says WHAT?
(FINGERTIP BELLOWS)
(ELEPHANTS BELLOWING)
Paisley says NO, NO, NO.
Martin says WOW, I FEEL
STRONG AND POWERFUL.
Chris says OH YEAH, AND I FEEL
SORRY FOR THOSE ELEPHANTS.
DIDN'T YA KNOW ELEPHANTS
HAVE FEELINGS, TOO, PAISLEY?
Paisley says I DON'T CARE.
THEY WON'T HAVE A HOME
HERE WHEN I'M DONE ANYWAY.
KEEP PAVING.
Martin says THEN WE'LL HAVE TO STOP YOU.
The brothers say TO THE
ELEPHANT HERD RESCUE!
Paisley says REX, STOP THOSE
COLORFUL ELEPHANTS!
(ENGINE RUMBLING)
(ROCK MUSIC)
(BULLDOZER CRASHES)
Martin crashes a bulldozer and says AWESOME!
I LOVE THIS TRUNK.
(ENGINE RUMBLING)
Chris spins another bulldozer and throws it away.
He says WITH
OVER 40,000 MUSCLES,
IT'S GOT INCREDIBLE STRENGTH
AND CONTROL.
(BULLDOZER CRASHES)
Rex says THIS'LL STOP THEM.
(LIQUID SPLASHING)
He throws cement at Chris.
Chris says AH!
UH-OH, QUICK DRYING
CEMENT. (GRUNTS)
Aviva says YAY, FINGERTIP'S MOM!
(ENGINE RUMBLING)
Fingertip's mom crashes two bulldozers.
(BULLDOZERS CRASHING)
Koki says WOW, TWO
PAVERS IN ONE SWING.
Paisley says NO, NO, NO, NO.
NATURE CAN'T WIN.
IT'S YUCKY!
TIME TO STOP
THOSE KRATT BROTHERS.
Rex shoots cement at Martin.
Martin jumps in a mud pit and says WHOA!
Rex says MORE CEMENT.
Rex shoots more cement at Martin.
Martin shoots mud with his trunk and says NO, MUD!
(LIQUID SPLASHING)
The elephants help him shoot mud at Rex and Paisley.
Rex says OH NO. (SCREAMS)
(PAISLEY CRIES OUT)
Paisley says AH, YUCKY.
Rex says OW!
Martin says WELL, PAISLEY,
SOMETIMES MESSY IS FUN.
(FRIENDS CHEERING)
(MUD SPLASHING)
Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy jump in the mud and say YEAH, NATURE IS FUN!
Paisley says NO, MESSY IS NOT FUN.
NATURE IS NOT FUN AT ALL.
REX, GET ME OUT OF HERE!
THEY CAN HAVE
THEIR DIRTY ELEPHANT HOME.
I'LL PAVE SOME OTHER PARADISE.
(AIRPLANE RUMBLES)
Chris says SO LONG, PAISLEY!
SHE JUST DOESN'T GET IT.
ELEPHANTS ARE SO KIND AS
LONG AS THEY'RE TREATED WELL.
An elephant smacks the dried cement off Chris' body.
(TRUNK THUDS)
(CONCRETE CRACKS)
Chris says HA, THANKS, PAL.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
The team starts taking the posts down.
Chris says WELL, THAT'S MISSION
ACCOMPLISHED.
WE FIND OUT THE DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN AFRICAN AND
ASIAN ELEPHANTS.
Koki says AND THE SIMILARITIES.
BOTH ARE SMART,
POWERFUL CREATURES.
Jimmy says WITH FEELINGS, TOO. (CHUCKLES)
Martin says AND WE STOPPED PAISLEY
PAVER FROM RUINING
THE ELEPHANTS' HOME
WITH ANOTHER POINTLESS PROJECT.
(MUD SPLASHING)
Aviva says YEP, AND WE
COULDN'T HAVE DONE IT
WITHOUT OUR LITTLE
FRIEND, FINGERTIP.
She hugs Fingertip and says AWW, YOU'RE FEELING
BETTER NOW, RIGHT?
Chris holds a post like a baseball bat and says AND I'M FEELIN'
LIKE SOME BASEBALL!
PITCH ONE HERE, BRO.
Martin says ALL RIGHT, GET READY FOR MY
SUPER TRUNK-ERRIFIC
FAST BALL. (GRUNTS)

(CHRIS GRUNTS)
The ball bounces everywhere and knocks down the rest of the posts.
(BASEBALL CLANGING)
(BEAMS CRASHING)
Aviva says WELL, THAT'S ONE WAY
TO CLEAN UP YOUR HOME.
(EVERYONE LAUGHS)
Now the show turns back to real life.
Chris says SO, ELEPHANT BRAINS
ARE AMAZING BRAINS.
ELEPHANTS ARE ONE OF THE
SMARTEST ANIMALS IN THE WORLD.
Martin says AND THEY HAVE FEELINGS, TOO.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS
SPEND A LITTLE TIME
WITH ELEPHANTS AND YOU
CAN SEE AND UNDERSTAND
THE POWER OF THE ELEPHANT BRAIN.
Chris says AND WHAT BETTER
PLACE TO DO THAT
THAN IN INDIA WITH A
HERD OF ASIAN ELEPHANTS.
ELEPHANTS HAVE THE
LARGEST BRAIN
OF ANY LAND ANIMAL
ON THE PLANET.
ONE OF THE REASONS ELEPHANT
BRAINS ARE SO DEVELOPED
IS BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO INTERACT
WITH ONE ANOTHER
AND COMMUNICATE.
OTHER WHEN THINGS GO WRONG.
AND THEY HAVE TO
KNOW AND REMEMBER
WHERE THE FOOD RESOURCES ARE
AND WHERE TO FIND WATER.
(UPBEAT ORCHESTRAL MUSIC)
A MOTHER AND HER BABY.
EVERY MOTHER ELEPHANT
HAS TO TEACH HER BABIES
ALL THESE WAYS OF
THE ELEPHANT WORLD
AND THAT'S WHAT THIS BABY
ELEPHANT IS LEARNING RIGHT NOW.
SHE'S TEACHING HIM
TO GRAB ONTO GRASS,
ROLL IT AROUND,
GET A NICE BIG CLUMP,
AND THEN BRING IT UP TO
THEIR MOUTHS AND MUNCH ON IT.
ALL WITH A SUPER LONG NOSE.
AND IT'S THAT SAME LONG
NOSE THAT THIS MOTHER
IS USING TO TEACH HER BABY
HOW TO TAKE A DUST BATH
TO KEEP COOL IN THE HOT SUN.
Martin says BABY ELEPHANTS ARE
TAUGHT SURVIVAL SKILLS
BY THEIR MOM AND
OTHER HERD MEMBERS,
BUT THESE ORPHAN
ELEPHANTS HERE IN AFRICA,
THEY DON'T HAVE ANY FAMILY TO
TEACH THEM SURVIVAL SKILLS,
SO THEY'RE TAUGHT
WHAT THEY NEED TO KNOW
HERE AT THESE
ELEPHANT ORPHANAGES,
LIKE HOW TO TAKE A DUST BATH.
Chris holds dust for a baby elephant and says YEAH.
PICK IT UP, GOOD.
EXCELLENT, THAT'S IT.
WHOA, YOU GOT ME, TOO.
THANKS. (LAUGHS)
Martin says HERE YA GO, GETTIN' THE SIDE.
Chris says THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT
IT, ELEPHANTS ARE NOT ONLY
THE BIGGEST LAND
ANIMAL ON EARTH,
THEY HAVE BIG
BEAUTIFUL BRAINS, TOO.
Martin says AND REMEMBER,
ELEPHANTS HAVE FEELINGS.
LOTS OF ANIMALS DO,
SO DON'T FORGET,
ALWAYS BE NICE TO ANIMALS.
Chris says KEEP ON CREATURE ADVENTURING.
Martin says WE'LL SEE YA ON
THE CREATURE TRAIL!
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
Music plays as the end credits roll.
Then, a globe spins and Southern Asia appears highlighted. A clip shows images of an elephant.
The Kratt brothers appear. Chris wears a green shirt and Martin wears a blue shirt.
Martin says ON THE
CONTINENT OF ASIA
IN THE FOREST AND GRASSLANDS
LIVES A GIANT AMONG CREATURES,
THE ASIAN ELEPHANT.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
Chris says HEY, IT'S US,
THE KRATT BROTHERS.
I'M CHRIS.
Martin says I'M MARTIN.
THERE ARE ONLY TWO DIFFERENT
SPECIES OF ELEPHANTS
IN THE WORLD AND WE'VE
GOTTEN TO KNOW BOTH OF THEM
REALLY WELL ON OUR
CREATURE ADVENTURES.
Chris says SO, SEE IF YOU CAN
TELL THE DIFFERENCE.
WHICH IS
THE ASIAN ELEPHANT,
AND WHICH IS THE
AFRICAN ELEPHANT?
A split screen shows an elephant to the right and a darker skinned one to the left.
Martin says ARE YOU READY FOR THE ANSWER?
Chris points at the lighter elephant and says WELL, THAT'S THE ASIAN ELEPHANT.
Martin says AND THAT'S THE
AFRICAN ELEPHANT.
Chris says AT FIRST GLANCE,
THEY LOOK PRETTY SIMILAR,
BUT CHECK OUT THEIR EARS.
SEE ANY DIFFERENCES?
Martin says THE AFRICAN ELEPHANTS
EARS ARE BIGGER AND HANG LOWER.
EARS ARE A LOT SMALLER
AND SHORTER, AND THEIR
TRUNKS ARE DIFFERENT, TOO.
IN THE AFRICAN ELEPHANT, SEE
THOSE TWO TINY PROJECTIONS
ON THE END OF HIS TRUNK?
DO YOU SEE THAT?
THEY USE THEIR TIPS OF
THEIR TRUNK LIKE FINGERS.
THEY HAVE TWO OF 'EM
ON THE END OF THE TRUNK
AND THEY CAN
JUST PICK UP DELICATE,
TINY LITTLE THINGS LIKE A LEAF.
Martin laughs and says AND
THEY'RE GREAT FOR TICKLING.
THE ASIAN ELEPHANT'S
TRUNK ONLY HAS ONE FINGER,
BUT IT'S STILL
GREAT FOR GRABBING.
Chris says SO YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE ARE
SOME VERY IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN ASIAN ELEPHANTS
AND AFRICAN ELEPHANTS
THAT HELP TELL THEM APART.
BUT THERE'S ONE VERY
IMPORTANT SIMILARITY.
THE CREATURE POWER
OF THE ELEPHANT BRAIN.
Martin says IMAGINE IF WE COULD GET
INSIDE THE HEAD OF THE ELEPHANT,
UNDERSTAND THEIR FEELINGS
AND WHAT THEY'RE THINKING.
Chris says IMAGINE IF WE HAD
ASIAN ELEPHANT POWER.
They both say WHAT IF!
The brothers jump and turn into cartoons. In animation, a paw print appears, followed by a map, and then the brothers swim under the sea and swing from jungle vines.
A song plays and says ON ADVENTURE WITH THE COOLEST CREATURES, FROM THE OCEANS TO THE TREES, THE BROTHERS KRATT ARE GOING PLACES YOU NEVER GET TO SEE, HANGING WITH THEIR CREATURE FRIENDS. GET READY, IT'S THE HOUR, WE'RE GONNA SAVE SOME ANIMALS TODAY WITH CREATURE POWER! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD!
Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy Z send them creature disks from Tortuga, the ship. The brothers place the disks in their suits and morph into superheroes with animal legs and wings. Then, they run, swim and fly with animals in the wild.
The song continues
CHEETAH SPEED AND LIZARD GLIDE, FALCON FLIGHT AND LION PRIDE, GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS. GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS!
The name of the episode appears. It reads "Elephant Brains!"
The team flies around the Earth in the Tortuga.
Aviva says WOW, OUR PLANET EARTH IS
SO BEAUTIFUL FROM UP HERE.
Koki says I KNOW.
THE OCEANS, THE FORESTS,
THAT'S HOME RIGHT DOWN THERE.
Aviva says SO, ARE THE GUYS
READY TO GET STARTED?
Koki says LET'S SEE.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
Koki says YES, I'M LOCKED INTO
CHRIS'S LOCATION IN AFRICA.
AND MARTIN...
I'VE GOT HIM IN ASIA.
INDIA TO BE EXACT.
Aviva says PERFECT.
THEN WE CAN GET STARTED.
Jimmy says STARTED WITH WHAT?
I FORGET.
Aviva says WELL, REMEMBER
THE SAYING, JIMMY,
AN ELEPHANT NEVER FORGETS.
Jimmy says I'M DEFINITELY
NOT PART ELEPHANT.
Aviva laughs and says WE'RE
CHECKING OUT ELEPHANTS.
THERE ARE
TWO BASIC KINDS,
AFRICAN ELEPHANTS
AND ASIAN ELEPHANTS,
AND WE'RE FIGURING
OUT THE DIFFERENCES.
Jimmy says UH-OH, IF THIS
ANYTHING LIKE THE TIME
WE FIGURED OUT THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
AN ALLIGATOR AND
A CROCODILE, I'M OUT!
TOO MANY SUPER SHARP
TEETH IN THAT ADVENTURE.
(JIMMY WHIMPERING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Aviva says DON'T WORRY, JIMMY.
THIS'LL BE MORE
ABOUT SUPER COOL TRUNKS
THAN SUPER SHARP TEETH.
Koki says TORTUGA TO KRATT
BROTHERS, DO YOU READ?
Chris pops up on a holo screen and says CHRIS HERE WITH SOME
AFRICAN ELEPHANTS.
REMEMBER THORNSLEY, THE
RASCALLY LITTLE ELEPHANT
WHO DROVE OFF WITH
OUR TORTUGA?
Jimmy says HOW COULD WE FORGET?
Aviva gasps and says HI, THORNSLEY!
(PLAYFUL MUSIC)
The elephant steals Chris' creature pod.
He says HUH? HEY.
GET YOUR LITTLE TRUNK
FINGERS OFF MY CREATURE POD.
Aviva says OH YEAH, THOSE TWO LITTLE
TRUNK FINGERS CAN REALLY GRAB.
Koki says ESPECIALLY THORNSLEY'S.
Chris says GIVE IT BACK, BUDDY.
(GROANS) HEY!
UM, A LITTLE HERE.
Chris says I'LL GET BACK TO YOU!
Aviva says THAT LITTLE THORNSLEY
IS TROUBLE.
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
Koki says INCOMING COM FROM MARTIN.
Martin says HEY, GANG.
BLUE BACKPACK HERE.
I FOUND SOME ASIAN
ELEPHANTS.
HUH, THEY LIVE IN MATERNAL HERDS
JUST LIKE AFRICAN ELEPHANTS DO.
THE MATRIARCH FEMALE,
HER SISTERS, AND THEIR BABIES.
THIS LITTLE GIRL
IS ONLY ONE YEAR OLD
AND REALLY FRIENDLY. (CHUCKLES)
AH! OW!
HEY, PLEASE DON'T
PINCH THE NOSE.
Aviva says AWW.
Koki says SHE'S A SWEETIE.
HEY, NOTICE ANYTHING DIFFERENT
ABOUT THAT TRUNK?
Martin says UH, IT'S ATTACHED TO MY FACE?
Aviva gasps and says ONE FINGER.
Martin says YUP, THAT'S RIGHT.
ASIAN ELEPHANTS HAVE ONE
TRUNK FINGER, NOT TWO.
Aviva says THAT'S DIFFERENCE
NUMBER ONE.
AFRICAN ELEPHANTS HAVE
TWO TRUNK FINGERS.
ASIAN ELEPHANTS HAVE ONE.
Martin says BUT ASIAN ELEPHANTS
CAN STILL PICK UP,
HOLD, AND PINCH
THINGS JUST AS WELL.
UH, I THINK I'LL
NAME YOU FINGERTIP.
YEP, FINGERTIP IT IS.
(ELECTRONIC ZAPPING)
Chris chases the thief elephant and says OKAY, CHRIS HERE.
STILL AFTER THAT CREATURE POD.
HEY, BUT I
THINK FROM THIS ANGLE
YOU CAN SPOT ANOTHER DIFFERENCE.
SEE HOW SMOOTH AFRICAN
ELEPHANTS' HEADS ARE?
AND HOW BIG THEIR EARS ARE?
IN FACT THEIR EARS
ARE KINDA SHAPED
LIKE THE MAP OF AFRICA.
Aviva says REALLY?
(COMPUTER BEEPS)
Aviva presses a button on the computer.
Koki says IT MATCHES!
THAT'S COOL.
Aviva says SO SMOOTH HEAD
AND BIG EARS
FOR AFRICAN ELEPHANTS...
Martin says AND BUMPY HEAD
AND SMALLER EARS
FOR ASIAN ELEPHANTS.
Koki says DIFFERENCES
NUMBER TWO AND THREE.
Martin says ELEPHANTS FLAP
THEIR EARS TO KEEP COOL,
SO ASIAN ELEPHANTS REALLY
DON'T NEED BIG EARS
IN THESE ASIAN RAINFORESTS.
Chris says TELL ME ABOUT IT.
IT'S HOT ON THE AFRICAN SAVANNA.
THOSE BIG BUILT IN
FANS COME IN HANDY.
Koki says OH, AND WE CAN'T
FORGET THE SIZE.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE THERE?
Chris says YUP, AFRICAN ELEPHANTS
ARE BIGGER AND HEAVIER.
An elephant hits Chris and sends him towards an anthill.
Chris says DOH! (GRUNTING)
An aardvark approaches him and Chris says HI, SLURPEE.
(TONGUE SLURPING)
Martin says AND ASIAN ELEPHANTS ARE
SMALLER AND LIGHTER.
He picks up a baby elephant.
(GRUNTS)
Koki says YEAH, TRY THAT WITH
AN ADULT ELEPHANT.
Martin says UH, MAYBE LATER.
Aviva says GOT IT.
SO THERE'S A SIZE
DIFFERENCE, TOO.
BUT STILL, ELEPHANTS IN GENERAL
ARE THE BIGGEST LAND
MAMMALS ON THE PLANET.
Chris says SLURPEE, YOU ARE
ONE GREAT DIGGER.
(GASPS) HEY.
YES!
I'VE GOT A PLAN.
(ELECTRONIC MUSIC)
He inserts a disc in his suit, touches Slurpee and says ACTIVATE AARDVARK POWER.
(ELECTRONIC ZAPPING)
He morphs into an aardvark.
He says DIGGING POWER.
(UPBEAT ROCK MUSIC)
(EARTH RUMBLING)
Chris says GOT IT!
HA HA!
He digs a tunnel till he reaches the elephant, grabs his pod and says DIDN'T SEE ME COMIN',
DID YA THORNSLEY?
AWW, THORNSLEY.
Aviva says OH! HE LOOKS SO SAD.
Chris says THORNSLEY, I'M SORRY.
I WAS JUST TRYIN' TO...
I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT
YOUR FEELINGS, BUDDY.
Jimmy chuckles and says FEELINGS?
COME ON, HE'S AN
ELEPHANT NOT A PERSON.
HE DOESN'T
HAVE FEELINGS.
Martin says UH, YES HE DOES.
IN FACT ELEPHANTS,
BOTH AFRICAN AND ASIAN,
ARE REALLY EMOTIONAL CREATURES.
Chris says IN THE WILD ELEPHANTS
EVEN COMFORT EACH OTHER.
CHEER UP, BUD.
Jimmy says COME ON, PEOPLE ARE EMOTIONAL.
SEE, I CAN BE HAPPY.
(CHEERFUL MUSIC)
SAD.
(SOMBER MUSIC)
SCARED.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Koki says SEEN THAT ONE A LOT.
(AVIVA LAUGHS)
Jimmy says VERY FUNNY.
BUT ELEPHANTS AREN'T
EMOTIONAL LIKE PEOPLE ARE.
Chris says SURE THEY ARE, AND
THEY'RE SMART, TOO.
ELEPHANTS HAVE
FEELINGS, EMOTIONS.
THEY HAVE INCREDIBLY
COMPLEX BRAINS.
Jimmy says THEY'RE ANIMALS.
COME ON, GUYS.
Martin says LOOKS LIKE WE'LL
HAVE TO PROVE IT.
Chris says TIME FOR A KRATT
BROTHERS EXPERIMENT.
Martin says UH-OH.
I DON'T ALWAYS LIKE
HOW THESE TURN OUT.
Chris says LET'S ALL MEET IN ASIA!
HERE, YOU CAN PLAY
WITH IT FOR A WHILE.
(PLEASANT MUSIC)
Chris gets on an aircraft and says I'LL BE BACK
FOR IT LATER!
(AIRCRAFT WHOOSHES)
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
(AIRCRAFT HUMMING)
Meanwhile, Paisley lands her vehicle RIGHT ON SCHEDULE.
NOW, LET'S GET TO WORK.
YES, YES, THIS IS A GOOD SPOT.
EWW!
HUH?
LOOK AT THIS MESSY
YUCKINESS THEY CALL NATURE.
IT'S SO ICKY.
(WATER SLOSHING)
Paisley says WE HAVE LOTS OF
IMPROVEMENTS TO MAKE HERE, REX.
OUT WITH THE UGLY TREES
AND STINKY ANIMALS,
AND IN WITH THE
BEAUTIFUL PAVEMENT.
SOME BRICKS, SOME MORTAR.
(TOOLS CLANGING)
Rex says OH, WHAT ARE WE
BUILDING, PAISLEY?
Paisley says A GIGANTIC BUILDING, REX.
THE BIGGEST ONE
ANYONE'S EVER SEEN.
Rex says BUT WHAT'S IT FOR?
Paisley says I DON'T REALLY KNOW
WHAT IT'S FOR YET, REX.
WE CAN FIGURE THAT OUT LATER.
I JUST KNOW IT'LL BE REALLY BIG!
AND BUILDINGS ARE
BETTER THAN TREES.
Rex says EH, WORKS FOR ME.
Paisley says LET'S PAVE THIS PLACE!
An elephant splashes water on her.
(WATER SPLASHES)
(REX AND PAISLEY GRUNT)
Paisley says YUCK!
MUDDY EARTH. (WHIMPERS)
GET IT OFF!
GET IT OFF! (WHIMPERING)
Rex says GOT THE POWER
CLEAN MACHINE.
(MACHINE CLICKS)
He splashes water with a hose and it knocks her over.
(WATER WHOOSHES)
(PAISLEY SCREAMS)
Paisley grunts and says REX!
Rex says AH, SORRY, PAISLEY.
I'LL FIX YOU IN A JIFFY.
HERE WE GO, OKAY.
(MACHINE CLICKING)
Paisley says OH!
(PAISLEY GRUMBLING)
He washes and blow dries her.
(WATER SPLASHES)
(AIR WHOOSHES)
Rex says ALL CLEAN
AND PROPER, PAISLEY.
(PAISLEY GRUNTS)
Paisley sees mud by her feet and says EEK!
She jumps to the side and says BETTER.
NOW, LET'S GET RID OF
THOSE USELESS ANIMALS.
LIKE MR. ELEPHANT
BRAINS OVER THERE.
Rex says SHOO, ELEPHANTS!
COME ON NOW, HIP HIP.
MOVE ALONG THERE, LET'S GO.
OKAY. AH!
The elephant smashes the machine with its trunk.
(TRUNK SMASHING METAL)
Rex says THEY'RE STRONG, PAISLEY.
(WATER SPLASHING)
Paisley says HMM, MAYBE I CAN PUT HIM
TO USE, AT LEAST TEMPORARILY.
Chris ties a fruit crate to a tree brunch using a rope and says OKAY, KRATT BROTHERS
EXPERIMENT NUMBER ONE.
SEE THIS BOX, FINGERTIP?
INSIDE IS YOUR FAVORITE
FRUIT, MANGOES.
USING ANY OF
THIS STUFF HERE,
CAN YOU FIGURE OUT
HOW TO GET TO THE MANGOES?
SHE SMELLS IT ALL RIGHT.
He points at an improvised see-saw on the ground.
Aviva says OH, TOO HIGH TO REACH BEBITA.
Koki says OKAY, LET'S SEE
WHAT YOUR BRAIN'S DOIN'.
(COMPUTER ZAPPING)
Koki scans her brain.
Aviva says OOH, I CAN SEE
HER BRAIN WORKING.
SEE, THAT PART OF THE
BRAIN IS CALLED THE CEREBRUM,
SAME AS OURS.
AND LOOK, OUR SCANNER
IS SHOWING THAT
IT'S VERY ACTIVE RIGHT NOW.
Koki says SO SHE IS THINKING.
AND SINCE HER CEREBRUM
HAS MORE PROCESSING SPACE
THAN ANY LIVING LAND
ANIMAL, IT'LL HELP.
(FOOT THUDS)
Martin says I'M GLAD I'M NOT A PART OF
THIS EXPERIMENT FOR A CHANGE.
An adult elephant picks Martin up with its trunk and Martin says HEY, WAIT.
AH! UH-OH.
The elephant drops Martin on one end of the seesaw.
Chris says CHECK IT OUT.
I THINK SHE'S HELPING
HER BABY FIGURE IT OUT.
Martin says OH NO.
I'M NOT SUPPOSED
TO BE IN THIS
EXPERIMENT!
The elephant steps on the other end of the seesaw and sends Martin up in the air. He knocks down the crate.
(GRUNTS)
Aviva says WOW, SMART MOVE
FINGERTIP'S MOM.
THE MANGO'S CLOSER.
(CHUCKLES)
Martin says YEAH, GLAD TO HELP.
Chris says LOOK, NOW FINGERTIP
HAS AN IDEA.
(WOOD CLATTERING)
Fingertips removes the board from the box.
Koki says BRILLIANT.
BY STANDING ON THE BOX,
SHE CAN REACH HIGHER.
She reaches the crate and makes it drop to the ground.
(CRATE AND FRUIT THUD)
Chris says HA HA!
Koki says YES!
Chris says SHE DID IT!
Aviva says I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
Chris says WOOHOO!
Aviva says WOW!
ELEPHANTS ARE SMART.
Fingertips tosses Martin a mango.
Martin says HA, THANKS FINGERTIP.
WAY TO GO.
Chris says REAL EXPERIMENTS HAVE
PROVEN TO SCIENTISTS
THAT ELEPHANTS CAN LEARN
THINGS AND FIGURE THINGS OUT.
Martin says THAT'S WHY THEY'RE ONE OF
THE WORLD'S SMARTEST ANIMALS,
ON PAR WITH APES,
DOLPHINS, AND WHALES.
Jimmy says OKAY, SO THEY MAY BE SMART,
BUT EMOTIONS? NO WAY.
THAT'S WHAT SEPARATES
US HUMANS FROM ANIMALS.
(BRANCH SNAPS)
Fingertips smacks Jimmy's rear with a stick.
Jimmy says OW!
HEY!
Martin says SHE WAS JUST SWATTING A FLY.
TOOL USE.
ELEPHANTS ARE SO SMART,
THEY USE TOOLS IN THE WILD,
LIKE TREE BRANCHES
AS FLY SWATTERS.
Jimmy says MM-HM.
Meanwhile, Paisley says THESE ELEPHANTS BETTER
NOT PUT ME BEHIND SCHEDULE.
HOW IS THE TRAINING
COMING ALONG, REX?
Rex says WELL, THIS BOOK IS HELPING.
HOW TO TRAIN AN ELEPHANT.
DID YOU KNOW THAT HERE IN INDIA
THEY'VE BEEN USING ELEPHANTS
TO HELP WITH WORK PROJECTS
FOR OVER 4,000 YEARS?
Paisley says HELP?
I'LL BELIEVE IT WHEN I SEE IT.
Rex says HE'S LEARNING
IT FASTER THAN ME.
HE'S SMART.
(ENGINE HUMMING)
Paisley says WE'LL SEE HOW SMART.
NOW GET HIM TO SET THE POSTS.
(GRUNTING) OH.
AH.
(POST THUDS)
Rex says HUH.
SEE?
Paisley says HM.
BUT CAN HE DO IT AGAIN?
I THINK WE'RE IN BUSINESS.
(TENSE MUSIC)
The elephant starts setting all the posts.
(POSTS THUDDING)
Paisley says HUH.
BY MY CALCULATIONS,
WITH THESE BEASTS
I CAN SPEED UP PRODUCTION
BY 300 PERCENT PER BEAST.
REX, WE NEED 500 PERCENT MORE OF THEM.
A WHOLE HERD.
I'LL GET THEM DOING SOMETHING
USEFUL FOR A CHANGE.
(ELEPHANT BELLOWS)
Paisley says I DESPISE NATURE.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Koki looks at the computer and says WHOA!
OVER 250 BILLION NEURONS.
THAT'S A LOT OF BRAIN POWER.
Aviva says I HAD NO IDEA
ELEPHANTS WERE SO SMART.
(COMPUTER ZAPS)
AND THAT MEANS
WE'VE GOT TO UPDATE
OUR ELEPHANT POWER
DISC RIGHT NOW.
Koki says WE'LL BE AT THE TORTUGA, GUYS.
SEE YA LATER.
(UPBEAT ROCK MUSIC)
Martin says OKAY, MEET YA THERE
AFTER SNACK TIME.
He offers Fingertips a mango and says WANT ONE?
(ENGINE RUMBLING)
(SOMBER MUSIC)
(TREES CRASH)
Paisley's paver approaches.
Rex says YEE-HAW!
AM I HERDING THEM
RIGHT, PAISLEY?
Paisley says PRECISELY, REX.
JUST DON'T LET THEM
GET CLOSE TO ME.
Chris says OH NO,
IT'S PAISLEY PAVER
FROM PAVE NATURE INCORPORATED.
The brothers says PAISLEY, STOP!
Paisley says IT'S THE DELAY BROTHERS.
I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS.
IGNORE THEM, REX.
Chris says PAISLEY,
YOU GOTTA STOP!
Paisley says I NEVER STOP.
(CLAPS HANDS)
Paisley says JUST COLLECT
THEM, TOO, REX.
(CLAMPS CLICK)
Rex deploys two clamps and grabs the brothers and Fingertips.
The brothers say WHOA! WAH!
Rex says I GOT THE LITTLE
ONE, TOO, PAISLEY!
Chris says HEY, WHERE
ARE YOU TAKING US?
Paisley says I DON'T HAVE
TIME TO TELL YOU.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
At the Tortuga, Jimmy says YOU GUYS HAVE
DEFINITELY CONVINCED ME THAT
ELEPHANTS ARE SMART,
BUT I'M STILL NOT SOLD
ON THE FEELINGS THING.
Aviva says WELL, HAVE A LOOK AT THIS
PART OF THE BRAIN, JIMMY.
IT'S CALLED
THE HIPPOCAMPUS.
Jimmy says THE HIPPA-WHAT?
Aviva says HIPPOCAMPUS.
IT'S THE PART OF A BRAIN THAT
DEALS WITH EMOTION AND MEMORY.
Koki says AND THE ELEPHANT HAS ONE OF
THE BIGGEST ONES IN THE WORLD.
(ELECTRONIC MUSIC)
Aviva says EVEN IF YOU SHRUNK
AN ELEPHANT'S BRAIN
DOWN TO HUMAN SIZE, ITS
HIPPOCAMPUS WOULD BE
AROUND THE SAME SIZE AS OURS.
Jimmy says SO, IT CONTROLS MEMORY AND
CONNECTS WITH EMOTION, RIGHT?
Koki says YEAH.
ELEPHANTS NEED TO LEARN
AND REMEMBER A LOT,
LIKE WHERE THE WATER
HOLES ARE DURING A DROUGHT.
Jimmy says YEAH, BUT FEELINGS?
Aviva says MAYBE AN ALL NEW ASIAN
ELEPHANT CREATURE POWER DISC
WITH BRAIN TECHNOLOGY
WILL CONVINCE YOU.
READY TO PRINT THE DISCS, JIMMY?
Jimmy says OH YEAH, I'M FEELIN' THAT.
Aviva says PROCESSING.
(COMPUTER ZAPS)
(MACHINERY HUMMING)
(POSTS THUDDING)
Meanwhile, Paisley's minion elephants keeps setting the posts.
Paisley says ISN'T IT BEAUTIFUL?
WE'LL START HERE
AND BEFORE LONG
OUR GLORIOUS CONCRETE METROPOLIS
WILL STRETCH AS
FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE.
Chris says PAISLEY, THERE'S NOTHING
WRONG WITH BUILDING STUFF,
BUT YOU GOTTA BE SMART ABOUT IT.
IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE
TO JUST BUILD STUFF
FOR NO REASON IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE WILDERNESS.
(SOMBER MUSIC)
Paisley says LOOKS LIKE I AM, DOESN'T IT?
AND YOU CAN'T DO
ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(CHAINS JINGLING)
KEEP WORKING. FASTER!
Martin says AND THE ELEPHANTS,
THEY'RE REALLY KIND
AND CARING CREATURES
WITH FEELINGS.
YOU JUST CAN'T
TREAT 'EM THIS WAY.
(POSTS BANGING)
Rex says NO, NO, NO!
PUT THE POST IN THE HOLE.
COME ON, I'M NOT
GOING TO SAY IT AGAIN.
(FEET THUDDING)
(PLODDING ORCHESTRAL MUSIC)
Paisley says WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
DON'T THESE ELEPHANTS
KNOW I HATE DELAYS?
Rex says HA, HE WON'T DO IT.
HE REFUSES TO PUT THE POST IN.
Paisley says THAT'S SILLY.
IT'S A PERFECTLY GOOD
HOLE THAT
She looks down the hole, screams and says SOMETHING'S DOWN THERE.
(ORCHESTRAL MUSIC)
Chris says AN INDIAN CRESTED
PORCUPINE WAS DOWN THERE.
Martin says OUR ELEPHANT DIDN'T
WANT TO HURT HIM.
THAT'S WHY HE WOULDN'T DO IT.
Paisley says THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
IT'S JUST BEING STUBBORN.
Chris says NO, SEE, THEY'RE
KIND AND THEY HAVE FEELINGS.
HE KEPT THE PORCUPINE SAFE.
Paisley says OKAY, BACK TO WORK.
Martin says I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS.
IF ONLY WE HAD OUR CREATURE
PODS TO CALL FOR HELP.
(RHYTHMIC ORCHESTRAL MUSIC)
(GATE CRASHES)
Fingertips uses a log to break free from his cage.
Martin says WOW, NICE THINKIN', FINGERTIP.
The brothers say FINGERTIP, WAIT.
Chris says GET US OUT.
AWW, PAISLEY'S MACHINES
MUST HAVE SCARED FINGERTIP.
Martin says AW, POOR LITTLE ELEPHANT.
BUT SHE SHOULDN'T
BE OUT THERE ALONE.
Fingertips walks towards the Tortuga.
Inside the Tortuga, Aviva says OKAY, IT WON'T
BE LONG NOW, GANG.
PRINTING ASIAN
ELEPHANT POWER DISC.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
ALL THE ELEPHANT
POWERS ARE IN THERE,
SMARTS, FEELINGS, STRENGTH, AND
OF COURSE THE SINGLE TRUNK...
FINGERTIP?
Fingertips walks in.
Aviva says FINGERTIP!
(FINGERTIP BELLOWS)
OH, FINGERTIP,
YOU LOOK SO SAD, SWEETIE.
WHAT'S WRONG?
Koki says AWW, THAT'S NICE AVIVA.
SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE COULD
USE SOME COMFORTING.
WHEN A HERD
MEMBER IS UPSET,
THE REST OF THE HERD
IS THERE FOR THEM,
HUGGING AND TOUCHING
THEM WITH THEIR TRUNKS.
Jimmy says WOW.
Aviva says AWW, POBRECITO.
I WISH WE KNEW WHAT UPSET HER.
Fingertip tries to get a hold of some of the brothers' stuff.
Koki says OKAY, LITTLE GIRL,
EASY WITH CHRIS'S BACKPACK.
NOT MARTIN'S
CREATURE POD, EITHER.
Aviva says KOKI, DO YOU THINK SHE'S
TRYING TO TELL US SOMETHING?
Koki says MAYBE THE GUYS ARE IN TROUBLE.
SOMETHING'S UP.
WE'VE GOTTA FOLLOW HER.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Aviva says FINGERTIP, LEAD THE WAY
WITH THAT AWESOME
ELEPHANT MEMORY.
Paisley says NO BREAKS TODAY,
WORK, WORK, WORK.
Aviva says UH-OH, PAISLEY PAVER'S HERE.
HER PAVING MACHINES ARE
REALLY TOUGH TO STOP.
HM, WE NEED TO BE
SMART ABOUT THIS.
(SOFT MUSIC)
Fingertip sticks some quills out of a porcupine that walks by.
Aviva gasps and says FINGERTIP!
YOU CAN'T DO THAT.
SORRY, LITTLE PORCY.
Koki says FINGERTIP, NO!
COME BACK!
Aviva says WHAT'S SHE DOING?
Fingertip gives quills to the brothers and the other elephants.
Martin says YOU CAME BACK FOR US.
Chris says AWW, I THINK I KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE THINKING,
BUT IT'S NOT A KEY, PAL.
IT'S A PORCUPINE QUILL.
BUT HEY, IT'S WORTH A TRY.
YOUR TURN, MARTIN.
Martin says WAY TO GO, FINGERTIP.
TIME FOR THEM TO
Martin says WATCH AND LEARN.
(FINGERTIP BELLOWS)
They open the locks with the quills.
(LOCK CLICKS)
(BROTHERS GASP)
The brothers say YES!
WE'RE FREE!
(ELECTRIC GUITAR MUSIC)
(LOCKS CLICKING)
The elephant also unlock themselves.
Aviva says YES!
TIME FOR MY SECRET WEAPON.
MARTIN, CHRIS, HOO!
She throws the discs at the brothers.
(PULSATING MUSIC)
The brothers say ACTIVATE
ASIAN ELEPHANT POWER!
(ELECTRONIC ZAPPING)
They touch the elephant and morph into elephants.
(ELEPHANTS BELLOWING)
Rex says HUH?
(MACHINES RUMBLING)
Paisley says WHAT?
(FINGERTIP BELLOWS)
(ELEPHANTS BELLOWING)
Paisley says NO, NO, NO.
Martin says WOW, I FEEL
STRONG AND POWERFUL.
Chris says OH YEAH, AND I FEEL
SORRY FOR THOSE ELEPHANTS.
DIDN'T YA KNOW ELEPHANTS
HAVE FEELINGS, TOO, PAISLEY?
Paisley says I DON'T CARE.
THEY WON'T HAVE A HOME
HERE WHEN I'M DONE ANYWAY.
KEEP PAVING.
Martin says THEN WE'LL HAVE TO STOP YOU.
The brothers say TO THE
ELEPHANT HERD RESCUE!
Paisley says REX, STOP THOSE
COLORFUL ELEPHANTS!
(ENGINE RUMBLING)
(ROCK MUSIC)
(BULLDOZER CRASHES)
Martin crashes a bulldozer and says AWESOME!
I LOVE THIS TRUNK.
(ENGINE RUMBLING)
Chris spins another bulldozer and throws it away.
He says WITH
OVER 40,000 MUSCLES,
IT'S GOT INCREDIBLE STRENGTH
AND CONTROL.
(BULLDOZER CRASHES)
Rex says THIS'LL STOP THEM.
(LIQUID SPLASHING)
He throws cement at Chris.

Fingertip's mom crashes two bulldozers.
(BULLDOZERS CRASHING)
Koki says WOW, TWO
PAVERS IN ONE SWING.

TIME TO STOP
THOSE KRATT BROTHERS.
Rex shoots cement at Martin.
Martin jumps in a mud pit and says WHOA!
Rex says MORE CEMENT.
Rex shoots more cement at Martin.
Martin shoots mud with his trunk and says NO, MUD!
(LIQUID SPLASHING)
The elephants help him shoot mud at Rex and Paisley.
Rex says OH NO. (SCREAMS)
(PAISLEY CRIES OUT)
Paisley says AH, YUCKY.
Rex says OW!
Martin says WELL, PAISLEY,
SOMETIMES MESSY IS FUN.
(FRIENDS CHEERING)
(MUD SPLASHING)
Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy jump in the mud and say YEAH, NATURE IS FUN!
Paisley says NO, MESSY IS NOT FUN.
NATURE IS NOT FUN AT ALL.
REX, GET ME OUT OF HERE!
THEY CAN HAVE
THEIR DIRTY ELEPHANT HOME.
I'LL PAVE SOME OTHER PARADISE.
(AIRPLANE RUMBLES)
Chris says SO LONG, PAISLEY!
SHE JUST DOESN'T GET IT.
ELEPHANTS ARE SO KIND AS
LONG AS THEY'RE TREATED WELL.
An elephant smacks the dried cement off Chris' body.
(TRUNK THUDS)
(CONCRETE CRACKS)
Chris says HA, THANKS, PAL.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
The team starts taking the posts down.
Chris says WELL, THAT'S MISSION
ACCOMPLISHED.
WE FIND OUT THE DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN AFRICAN AND
ASIAN ELEPHANTS.
Koki says AND THE SIMILARITIES.
BOTH ARE SMART,
POWERFUL CREATURES.
Jimmy says WITH FEELINGS, TOO. (CHUCKLES)
Martin says AND WE STOPPED PAISLEY
PAVER FROM RUINING
THE ELEPHANTS' HOME
WITH ANOTHER POINTLESS PROJECT.
(MUD SPLASHING)
Aviva says YEP, AND WE
COULDN'T HAVE DONE IT
WITHOUT OUR LITTLE
FRIEND, FINGERTIP.
She hugs Fingertip and says AWW, YOU'RE FEELING
BETTER NOW, RIGHT?
Chris holds a post like a baseball bat and says AND I'M FEELIN'
LIKE SOME BASEBALL!
PITCH ONE HERE, BRO.
Martin says ALL RIGHT, GET READY FOR MY
SUPER TRUNK-ERRIFIC
FAST BALL. (GRUNTS)
(POSTS DINGS)
(CHRIS GRUNTS)
The ball bounces everywhere and knocks down the rest of the posts.
(BASEBALL CLANGING)
(BEAMS CRASHING)
Aviva says WELL, THAT'S ONE WAY
TO CLEAN UP YOUR HOME.
(EVERYONE LAUGHS)
Now the show turns back to real life.
Chris says SO, ELEPHANT BRAINS
ARE AMAZING BRAINS.
ELEPHANTS ARE ONE OF THE
SMARTEST ANIMALS IN THE WORLD.
Martin says AND THEY HAVE FEELINGS, TOO.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS
SPEND A LITTLE TIME
WITH ELEPHANTS AND YOU
CAN SEE AND UNDERSTAND
THE POWER OF THE ELEPHANT BRAIN.
Chris says AND WHAT BETTER
PLACE TO DO THAT
THAN IN INDIA WITH A
HERD OF ASIAN ELEPHANTS.
ELEPHANTS HAVE THE
LARGEST BRAIN
OF ANY LAND ANIMAL
ON THE PLANET.
ONE OF THE REASONS ELEPHANT
BRAINS ARE SO DEVELOPED
IS BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO INTERACT
WITH ONE ANOTHER
AND COMMUNICATE.
OTHER WHEN THINGS GO WRONG.
AND THEY HAVE TO
KNOW AND REMEMBER
WHERE THE FOOD RESOURCES ARE
AND WHERE TO FIND WATER.
(UPBEAT ORCHESTRAL MUSIC)
A MOTHER AND HER BABY.
EVERY MOTHER ELEPHANT
HAS TO TEACH HER BABIES
ALL THESE WAYS OF
THE ELEPHANT WORLD
AND THAT'S WHAT THIS BABY
ELEPHANT IS LEARNING RIGHT NOW.
SHE'S TEACHING HIM
TO GRAB ONTO GRASS,
ROLL IT AROUND,
GET A NICE BIG CLUMP,
AND THEN BRING IT UP TO
THEIR MOUTHS AND MUNCH ON IT.
ALL WITH A SUPER LONG NOSE.
AND IT'S THAT SAME LONG
NOSE THAT THIS MOTHER
IS USING TO TEACH HER BABY
HOW TO TAKE A DUST BATH
TO KEEP COOL IN THE HOT SUN.
Martin says BABY ELEPHANTS ARE
TAUGHT SURVIVAL SKILLS
BY THEIR MOM AND
OTHER HERD MEMBERS,
BUT THESE ORPHAN
ELEPHANTS HERE IN AFRICA,
THEY DON'T HAVE ANY FAMILY TO
TEACH THEM SURVIVAL SKILLS,
SO THEY'RE TAUGHT
WHAT THEY NEED TO KNOW
HERE AT THESE
ELEPHANT ORPHANAGES,
LIKE HOW TO TAKE A DUST BATH.
Chris holds dust for a baby elephant and says YEAH.
PICK IT UP, GOOD.
EXCELLENT, THAT'S IT.
WHOA, YOU GOT ME, TOO.
THANKS. (LAUGHS)
Martin says HERE YA GO, GETTIN' THE SIDE.
Chris says THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT
IT, ELEPHANTS ARE NOT ONLY
THE BIGGEST LAND
ANIMAL ON EARTH,
THEY HAVE BIG
BEAUTIFUL BRAINS, TOO.
Martin says AND REMEMBER,
ELEPHANTS HAVE FEELINGS.
LOTS OF ANIMALS DO,
SO DON'T FORGET,
ALWAYS BE NICE TO ANIMALS.
Chris says KEEP ON CREATURE ADVENTURING.
Martin says WE'LL SEE YA ON
THE CREATURE TRAIL!
