Transcript: How Does A Smoke Alarm Work?
Firefighter Eric sits at the wheel of a fire truck.
Lucas pops out from behind him and says HEY, FIREFIGHTER ERIC.
Eric says WHOA! HEY, LUCAS.
Eric is in his thirties, with short light brown hair and wears a blue uniform.
Lucas is in his twenties, with short puffy brown hair and wears firefighter pants and a red TVO Kids hooded sweatshirt.
Lucas says HEY! TVO KIDS,
LUCAS HERE,
AND I AM AT BARRIE FIRE
AND EMERGENCY SERVICE,
HANGING OUT WITH SOME
COOL FIREFIGHTERS,
TRYING TO GET ALL OF THE FIRE
SAFETY KNOWLEDGE THAT I CAN GET.
SO I'VE GOT A COUPLE
QUESTIONS FOR YOU.
OH, BOY.
OKAY, HOW DOES
A SMOKE ALARM WORK?
A caption reads "Firefighter Eric. Barrie Fire and Emergency."
Eric says WELL, IT KINDA WORKS
JUST LIKE YOUR NOSE.
IT SMELLS SMOKE,
AND ANYTIME IT SMELLS IT,
IT WILL ALARM YOU.
Lucas says OH, WOW, OKAY, COOL.
SO WHEN SHOULD TVO KIDS
CHECK THEIR FIRE SMOKE ALARM?
Eric says GREAT QUESTION.
ANY TIME YOU GO OVER TO
SOMEBODY'S HOUSE
THAT YOU DON'T
NORMALLY SLEEP AT,
OR ONCE A MONTH
AT YOUR HOUSE.
Lucas says ONCE A MONTH AT YOUR OWN HOUSE,
I LOVE IT.
SO WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOUR
SMOKE ALARM ISN'T WORKING?
Eric says THE MOST IMPORTANT THING
WHEN YOU RECOGNIZE
THAT YOUR SMOKE ALARM
ISN'T WORKING,
IS YOU TELL A PARENT OR A FRIEND
TO DEAL WITH THAT PROBLEM.
Lucas says GOTCHA. OKAY, I'M GONNA CHECK
OUT SOME FIRE SAFETY KNOWLEDGE.
THANKS FOR HANGING OUT.
Eric says MY PLEASURE.
Lucas says SEE YA!
They shake hands and Lucas gets out of the truck.
Eric says LATER!
