Transcript: The O.K. Rodeo
Zoey plays the ukulele in the attic.
Zoey is in her early teens, with long wavy brown hair and wears red trousers, a printed yellow shirt and a denim jacket.
As colourful animated letters form the name "The Wacky Word Show," a song plays that says IT'S THE WACKY WACKY WORD
SHOW.
THE WACKY WACKY WORD SHOW.
THE WACKY WORD SHOW.
SO WACKY.
Zoey and Lukas dance in the attic.
Lukas is around 11, with short straight brown hair and wears jeans and a gray and greens sweater.
Zoey says IT'S ME ZOEY.
Lukas says I'M LUKAS.
Zoey says WE PLAY WITH WORDS.
In animation, a dictionary walks around the Earth as Lukas and Zoey dance on the Moon.
Lukas says HAVE LOTS OF FUN.
Zoey says ON THE WACKY WORD
SHOW FUN IS NUMBER 1.
As they play the ukulele, animate musical notes come out and the word "Fun" appears in colourful animated letters.
Zoey says NOW WE LOVE BOOKS AND
STORIES.
Lukas jumps inside a dictionary and Zoey closes it.
Lukas says MAKE STUFF UP THAT'S
WHAT WE DO.
Zoey says DID WE MENTION ACTING
WACKY?
They both say YEAH WE DO THAT TOO.
Zoey says WE GOT TONS OF
GUESTS AND BOOBOO BOT.
Different kids appear on several screens.
Booboo Bot is a robot made out of an old typewriter as the body and a tablet as the head.
Lukas says GAMES AND JOKES WITH
YOU.
The song continues IT'S THE WACKY WACKY WORD
SHOW.
THE WACKY WACKY WORD SHOW.
THE WACKY WORD SHOW.
HERE WE GO.
Lukas and Zoey run along with the animated letters.
The song continues THE WACKY WORD SHOW.
SO WACKY!
A clip shows a man riding a horse in a rodeo.
In the attic, Zoey and Lukas walk towards the camera. Lukas swings a rope.
Wearing a blue cowgirl hat, Zoey says HOWDY.
WELCOME TO THE
OKAY RODEO.
I GOT SOME FUN
LIBRARY BOOKS ABOUT
COWBOYS AND COWGIRLS.
SO TODAY WE'RE
GONNA PUT ON OUR VERY
OWN RODEO SHOW.
RIGHT LUKAS?
Lukas gestures shutting his mouth. He is wearing a red cowboy hat.
Zoey says HE'S PRETENDING TO BE
THE STRONG SILENT TYPE
LIKE A COWBOY.
LUKAS WANTED TODAY'S
SHOW TO BE ALL ABOUT
SILENT LETTERS.
She whispers HE LOST A SPELLING
BEE BECAUSE OF THEM.
Lukas says I CAN'T BELIEVE I
LOST TO THE WORD GNAT.
An animated mosquito says NA NA NA NA GNAT!
Lukas says I KNEW IT WAS A BUG I JUST
DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO SPELL IT.
Zoey says BUT YOU CAN SPELL
SO MANY HUGE WORDS.
HOW COULD YOU LOSE ON A
LITTLE WORD LIKE THAT?
Zoey says I DIDN'T KNOW
IT HAD A G.
Zoey says GNAT HAS A G?
Lukas says YEAH.
G-N-A-T.
THE G IS SILENT.
Zoey says BUT WHY HAVE THE G
IF YOU DON'T SAY IT?
Lukas says I KNOW RIGHT?
Zoey says SO TODAY, WE'RE GONNA
PUT SILENT LETTERS
TO THE TEST IN OUR RODEO
CHAMPIONSHIP.
Sad, Lukas says I WISH WORDS COULD BE
SPELLED THE WAY THEY SOUND.
Zoey says AND TO CHEER LUKAS
UP WE'RE GONNA HAVE
SOME WORDS THAT SOUND
EXACTLY LIKE WHAT
THEY MEAN.
THEY'RE CALLED
ONOMATOPOEIA.
NOW HOLD ONTO
YOUR HATS EVERYONE.
WHOA.
A flying caption reads "Whoosh."
The caption changes to "Applause."
In a clip, Lukas and Zoey stand in a rodeo. Lukas is a TV reporter and Zoey is a rodeo queen.
Lukas says THAT'S ONOMATOPOEIA.
THE RODEO QUEEN.
CAN YOU SAY A FEW
WORDS FOR YOUR FANS?
Onomatopoeia says GULP!
MEOW!
SPLAT!
WHOOSH!
DING-DONG!
Lukas says UM, MAYBE SOME DIFFERENT WORDS?
Onomatopoeia says BAM!
CHATTER!
CROAK!
FLIP-FLOP!
Lukas says SORRY.
I MEANT REAL WORDS.
Onomatopoeia says THOSE ARE REAL WORDS.
THEY'RE ONOMATOPOEIA.
JUST LIKE MY NAME.
THEY'RE WORDS THAT
DESCRIBE A SOUND.
Lukas says OH AND THEY SOUND
JUST LIKE THOSE SOUNDS.
Onomatopoeia says SPLASH!
TRICKLE!
TICK-TOCK!
Lukas says UM, YEAH.
I THINK WE
GET IT NOW.
THANKS FOR
TALKING TO US.
Onomatopoeia says SWOOSH!
SIZZLE!
RIBBIT!
RING!
Lukas says ALL RIGHT.
THAT'S ALL WE HAVE
TIME FOR TODAY FOLKS.
Struggling to get the microphone, Onomatopoeia says RIP!
RUSTLE!
SLITHER!
SPLATTER!
Now, Onomatopoeia sings I'M ONOMATOPOEIA
AND I TELL IT LIKE IT IS.
WHEN I MUNCH I LIKE
TO SLURP AND BURP.
I WANT MY POP TO FIZZ.
I SMACK MY FOOD.
YOU THINK I'M RUDE DON'T
BOO.
CHECK OUT MY ATTITUDE.
THE RODEO QUEEN.
OUR RODEO QUEEN.
SHE WANTS HER WORDS TO
SOUND LIKE WHAT THEY MEAN.
She dances and sings
I'M ONOMATOPOEIA AND I
KNOW I'M NOT POLITE.
I BELCH.
I BLURT AND I SNORE ALL
NIGHT.
I TALK THE WAY THE ANIMALS DO
WITH NEIGHS AND OINKS AND
HOOTS AND WOOTS.
SOMETIMES I
COCK-A-DOODLE-DO.
THE RODEO QUEEN.
OUR RODEO QUEEN.
SHE WANTS HER WORDS TO
SOUND LIKE WHAT THEY MEAN.
SHE WANTS HER WORDS TO
SOUND LIKE WHAT THEY MEAN.
SHE WANTS HER WORDS TO
SOUND LIKE WHAT THEY MEAN.
Back in the attic, Lukas stands next to the TV.
He says LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN THINK OF
OTHER WORDS THAT SOUND LIKE
WHAT THEY MEAN.
A boy with a black T-shirt says CRUNCH!
A girl wearing glasses says BARK!
A boy wearing a white polo-shirt says BEES GO BUZZ.
A girl with long hair says THE WORD POP
BECAUSE IT POPS LIKE...
POP!
A girl with curly hair says WHEN A CAT MEOWS.
MEOW!
She chuckles.
The girl wearing glasses says BUBBLE BECAUSE
BUBBLES THEY LIKE...
A girl with short red hair says WHEN YOU BANG
SOMETHING IT SOUNDS LIKE BANG.
A boy with long hair says BANG.
Lukas says SPEAKING OF SOUNDS, DON'T YOU
WISH ALL WORDS COULD BE SPELLED
EXACTLY THE WAY THEY SOUND?
The boy with a black T-shirt says YES BECAUSE THEN IT WOULD BE
MAKING WRITING WEDNESDAY SO MUCH
EASIER.
BooBoo Bot says BOOBOO BOT AGREE.
WHY SILENT LETTERS?
Zoey says THIS IS THE BALLAD OF
SILENT E.
HE DOESN'T LIKE TO TALK.
HE STANDS AROUND WITH THE OTHER
WORDS BUT STILL HIS LIPS ARE
LOCKED.
An animation shows the story of silent E.
Zoey continues HE MAKES CAR CARE.
HE MAKES BAR BARE.
SO EVEN THOUGH HE'S NEVER HEARD.
Silent E says SHHH.
Zoey says HE'S POPULAR WITH ALL THE
WORDS.
Letters say SQUEAK. SQUEAK. SQUEAK...
Zoey says HE MAKES RAT RATE.
Letters say YAY, WOOHOO!
Zoey says HE MAKES HAT HATE.
Letters say RRRR.
A hat says WHO COULD HATE A HAT?
Zoey says THEN HE'S OFF TO
CHANGE ANOTHER WORD.
THE SILENT E YOU'VE NEVER HEARD.
The hat says TELL ME YOU LIKE ME.
PLEASE TELL ME.
Zoey says HE'S SILENT E.
HE'S SILENT E.
Silent E walks towards the sunset.
The hat says COME ON.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH A HAT?
EVERYBODY LIKES A HAT.
A woman rides a horse in a rodeo.
A boy with curly hair says WHY DID THE
COWBOY RIDE HIS HORSE?
BECAUSE IT WAS
TOO HEAVY TO CARRY.
A caption reads "Laughter."
Kids laugh.
An animated board reads "Wacky Challenge."
Zoey and Lukas say IT'S THE WACKY CHALLENGE
WITH YOUR HOSTS ZOEY AND LUKAS.
Zoey and Lukas sit at a desk wearing checked red and black jackets and wigs.
Zoey says I THINK IT'S TIME
TO HAVE SOME REAL
LIVE RODEO FUN.
DON'T YOU THINK?
Lukas says WE'VE GOT A WILD
RIDE OF A CHALLENGE
IN THIS RODEO.
HOWDY COWGIRLS
AND COWBOYS.
The contestants say HOWDY.
Zoey says TODAY'S CHALLENGERS ARE
RUBY AND SOPHIE ON TEAM TEXAS.
Ruby is around 10 years old with blond hair tied-up. She wears a cowgirl hat, a blue handkerchief and a beige T-shirt. Sophie is around 11 years old. She wears a cowgirl hat, a blue handkerchief and a dark blue long sleeved T-shirt.
Ruby and Sophie say YEE HAW.
Zoey says AND WE HAVE

Jonathan is around 11 years old. He has red hair. He wears a cowboy hat, a red handkerchief and a gray T-shirt. Nate is around 11 years old. He has brown hair. He wears a red cowboy hat, a red handkerchief and a blue sweater.
Jonathan and Nate say YIPPEE.
Lukas says HERE'S HOW THIS
CHALLENGE WORKS.
SOME OF THESE WORDS BEHIND YOU
HAVE SILENT LETTERS BUT TO TRICK
YOU SOME DON'T HAVE ANY.
Signs with words rest on hay bales.
He continues ALL AROUND THE ARENA ARE A BUNCH
OF RANDOM HANGING LETTERS AND
ONLY SOME OF THEM ARE THE SILENT
LETTERS YOU'RE LOOKING FOR.
Zoey says YOUR JOB IS TO KNOCK OFF AS MANY
HANGING SILENT LETTERS AS YOU
CAN BUT REMEMBER YOU'RE ONLY
LOOKING FOR THE SILENT LETTERS
FROM THE WORDS BEHIND YOU.
Lukas says TEAM TEXAS IS UP FIRST.
TEAM ALBERTA GO BACK TO YOUR
STABLES SO YOU CAN'T SEE WHICH
LETTERS THEY KNOCKED OFF.
Zoey says GO!
A counter reads "2:00."
Sophie says GIDDY UP HORSEY.
YEE-HAW.
Sophie sits in a cart as Ruby pulls it wearing a horse costume.
Ruby says LET'S GET THE E IN COWPOKE.
Sophie says WHOA.
Ruby says HIT IT.
Zoey says THERE ARE 4 WORDS WITH SILENT
E'S AT THE END LIKE COWPOKE.
Ruby says STAMPEDE HAS ANOTHER ONE.
Sophie says WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
Lukas says THEY'RE RIGHT.
Sophie says KEEP GOING.
Ruby says OH, THE K IN KNOT.
Sophie says WAIT A SECOND, OKAY.
OH HERE'S THE K.
Sophie uses a stick to knock off a small ball.
Zoey says THAT'S ONE MORE FOR TEAM
TEXAS.
Lukas says THE K IN THE WORD
KNOT IS SILENT.
WE DON'T SAY K-NOT.
Zoey says THERE'S A SECOND
WORD WITH THE SILENT K.
WILL THEY FIND IT?
Sophie says KEEP GOING FASTER.
Lukas says LESS THAN A MINUTE TO GO.
Ruby says DID YOU GET A D FOR
WEDNESDAY?
Sophie says D, STOP.
Lukas says AND THEY'VE GOT THE
SILENT D IN WEDNESDAY.
WE DON'T SAY
WED-NESDAY.
Zoey says WILL THEY REMEMBER
THE SILENT E IN
WEDNESDAY TOO?
Sophie says FASTER, FASTER.
Ruby says THERE'S T IN RUSTLE.
Sophie says OH THERE'S A T.
Zoey says YUP AND IT'S ALSO ANOTHER
WORD WITH A SILENT E AT THE END.
A number reads "5."
Ruby says OH THERE'S A B IN LAMB.
Sophie says OKAY, LET'S GET THE B.
Lukas says ONLY A FEW SECONDS LEFT.
Ruby says GET THE B.
Sophie says YES.
Zoey says THAT'S RIGHT.
WE SAY LAMB
NOT LAM-B.
The number changes to "7."
Sophie says YOU THINK THERE'S A
SILENT E IN WEDNESDAY?
I'M JUST GONNA TAKE THE E.
Ruby says OKAY, I HOPE IT'S A GOOD ONE.
Zoey says YES IT IS.
(buzzer)
Zoey says TIME'S UP.
Lukas says TEAM ALBERTA, GO!
Nate says GIDDY UP.
The counter starts again.
Jonathan says NEIGH.
Zoey says LOOK AT THOSE SPEEDY
COWBOYS GO.
THEY'RE HAVING A GOOD OLD TIME.
Lukas says BUT THEY'RE NOT
KNOCKING OFF ANY LETTERS.
Jonathan says THE B IN LAMB.
Zoey says LOOKS LIKE HE JUST SPOTTED
ONE.
Nate knocks off a letter and falls.
Lukas says OH, TEAM ALBERTA TOOK A
SPILL.
OUCH.
Nate says GIDDY UP.
Jonathan says NEIGH.
Zoey says BUT THE COWBOY AND
HIS HORSE ARE OKAY.
Lukas says THEY'LL HAVE TO HURRY
UP IF THEY WANT TO WIN.
TWO LETTERS.
NICE.
TEAM ALBERTA GOT
HE SILENT E AT THE END
OF THE WORD STAMPEDE.
Zoey says THEY ALSO FOUND KNEE THAT'S THE
SECOND WORD WITH THE SILENT K.
A number reads "3."
Jonathan says GET THE G IN GNAW.
Zoey says NICE ONE.
WE DON'T SAY G-NAW.
Lukas says WOW.
THEY'RE REALLY SPEEDING UP NOW
BUT WILL IT BE ENOUGH TO WIN?
Jonathan says OH WRANGLE IT HAS A W.
GO GET IT.
Lukas says YUP.
IT'S PRONOUNCED WRANGLE
AS IF THE WORD STARTS
WITH THE LETTER R.
The number changes to "5."
Jonathan says THERE'S NO MORE.
Zoey says HA.
YOU'RE WRONG THAT THERE'S NO
MORE SILENT LETTERS BUT YOU'RE
RIGHT THAT THERE'S NO MORE TIME.
(buzzer)
Zoey says TIME'S UP.
LET'S SEE HOW
MANY SILENT LETTERS
YOU HAVE.
Lukas says TEAM ALBERTA, EVEN IF YOU LOST
SOME PRECIOUS TIME YOU STILL
MANAGED TO GET 5 POINTS.
Zoey says AND TEAM TEXAS
YOU GOT 8 POINTS.
YOU'RE THE WINNERS.
GOOD JOB.
The girls say WOOHOO.
YEE-HAW.
Zoey says NOW DON'T BE SILENT.
They say YEE-HAW.
(laughing)
(neigh)
A boy wearing a blue T-shirt says ONCE A COWBOY WENT TO TEXAS.
HE WENT ON FRIDAY AND CAME BACK
ON FRIDAY BUT HE ONLY STAYED FOR
2 DAYS.
HOW IS IT POSSIBLE?
BooBoo Bot says DOES NOT COMPUTE.
The boy wearing a blue T-shirt says HIS HORSE WAS NAMED FRIDAY.
Kids laugh.
BooBoo Bot says I GET IT.
HA HA.
Back in the attic, Lukas says WANT TO MEET SOMEONE
WHO KNOWS REAL COUNTRY
WESTERN SONGS?
Zoey plays the Ukele and sings HE WRITES SONGS
AND HE SINGS.
Lukas sings AND HE KNOWS A
LOT OF FUN THINGS.
Zoey says PLEASE WELCOME
LI'L ANDY.
Li'l Andy comes in playing country music on his guitar. He is in his late twenties, clean-shaven with red hair. He wears a hat, a black suit, white shirt and yellow tie.
Zoey says WOW.
Lukas says GOOD JOB.
Li'l Andy says HOWDY FOLKS.
Li'l Andy SAYS OH YEAH.
SO YOU KNOW HOW THEY
CALL YOU LI'L ANDY?
DOES THAT MAKE
ME BIG LUKAS?
Li'l Andy says THAT SEEMS LIKE A REALLY
GOOD STAGE NAME IF YOU ASK ME.
Lukas says ARE ALL COUNTRY
SONGS SAD?
MOST OF THEM SEEM
PRETTY SAD.
Li'l Andy says A LOT OF THEM MAY SEEM SAD.
A LOT OF THE TIMES THE SINGER
SOUNDS SAD BUT REALLY WHAT HE OR
SHE IS SINGING
ABOUT IS PRETTY HAPPY.
LIKE I HAVE A COUNTRY SONG
THAT'S ABOUT BREAKFAST AND
BREAKFAST IS A MEAL THAT MAKES
ME REALLY HAPPY AND ONE DAY I
WAS EATING BREAKFAST AND I
THOUGHT THAT THE BACON AND EGGS
I WAS EATING WERE REALLY GOOD SO
I STARTED SINGING.
He sings BEGGIN' AND
ACHIN' FOR EGGS
AND BACON.
THE WALLS GOT TO SHAKIN'
FROM THIS MERRY MAKIN'.
He says BUT SOMETIMES SONGS REALLY ARE
SAD LIKE I WAS THINKING ABOUT
HOW MY SON WAS GONNA GET OLDER
AND HE WOULDN'T BE A LITTLE BOY
FOR HIS WHOLE LIFE AND THAT MADE
ME REALLY SAD SO I MADE UP A
SONG THAT WENT.
He sings YOU'RE ONLY A BABY BOY FOR SO
LONG.
SO LONG, SO LONG.
YOU'RE ONLY A BABY
BOY FOR SO LONG.
COME ON DOWN AND SPEND THE
DAY.
He says AND THEN, ONCE I HAD WRITTEN
THAT SONG, I WASN'T SO SAD ABOUT
IT ANYMORE AND IT WAS A GOOD
WAY TO GET THROUGH ALL MY SAD
FEELINGS.
Lukas says IF WE WANTED TO WRITE
OUR OWN COUNTRY SONG,
HOW COULD WE START?
Li'l Andy says AN EASY WAY TO START IS TO JUST
TO TAKE A SONG THAT YOU ALREADY
KNOW AND PUT NEW WORDS TO IT.
SO YOU COULD DO
SOMETHING LIKE MARY HAD
A LITTLE LAMB AND DO
LIKE...
He sings MARY HAD A LITTLE
LAMB, LITTLE LAMB.
LITTLE LAMB.
MARY ATE A LITTLE HAM.
IT WAS WHITE AS SNOW.
He says AND JUST PUT A
DIFFERENT WORD IN THERE.
Lukas says YEAH.
Li'l Andy says SO IF YOU COULD THINK OF A WORD
THAT RHYMED WITH MARY HAD A
LITTLE LAMB, I'LL PLAY IT.
Li'l Andy plays the guitar.
Lukas sings MARY HAD SOME
YUMMY CLAM.
A YUMMY CLAM.
A YUMMY CLAM.
MARY HAD A TASTY
CLAM AND IT WAS
REALLY GOOD.
Li'l Andy says SEE?
AND NOW THERE'S A
COUNTRY SONG ABOUT
MARY EATING CLAMS THAT
DIDN'T EVEN
EXIST BEFORE.
They chuckle.
Lukas says IT'S MINE NOW.
Li'l Andy says ZOEY, WHAT ABOUT YOU?
Zoey says MARY HAD SOME
TOAST WITH
JAM.
Li'l Andy says TOAST WITH JAM.
Zoey sings TOAST WITH
JAM.
MARY HAD SOME
TOAST WITH JAM AND IT
WAS SUPER DUPER GOOD.
Zoey chuckles.
Li'l Andy says NOW WE HAVE 2 COUNTRY
SONGS THAT DIDN'T EXIST BEFORE.
LET'S GO A STEP FURTHER AND
MAYBE MAKE OUR OWN MUSIC AND ADD
TOTALLY NEW WORDS.
SO, SINCE THIS
SHOW IS ABOUT
ONOMATOPOEIA...
Li'l Andy sings ZOEY WAS WALKING BY A
CANTALOUPE STAND.
SHE PUT A
CANTALOUPE IN HER HANDS.
SHE STUMBLED AND TRIPPED UPON
THE STREET AND THE CANTALOUPE
FELL DOWN AT HER FEET.
AND IT WENT ZOOM!
AND IT WENT SPLAT!
AND IT WENT BOOM!
AND THAT WAS THAT.
AND IT WENT ZING!
AND CRACK!
AND THAT WAS THAT.
'CAUSE IT WENT SPLAT!
(clapping)
Li'l Andy says SO NOW WE HAVE A NEW
SONG.
They sing AND IT WENT ZOOM!
AND IT WENT SPLAT!
AND IT WENT BOOM!
AND THAT WAS THAT.
AND IT WENT ZING!
AND CRACK!
AND THAT WAS THAT.
'CAUSE IT WENT SPLAT!
Li'l Andy says GOOD JOB.
They bow.
Zoey says WELL THANKS ANDY
FOR COMING OVER.
IT WAS SO MUCH FUN.
Lukas says YEE-HAW!
Li'l Andy says HEY.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR HAVING ME
COME TO YOUR PLACE AND TALK
ABOUT COUNTRY MUSIC.
The girl wearing glasses says WHY DID THE COWBOY GET
IN TROUBLE IN CLASS?
HE WAS ALWAYS HORSING AROUND.
The boy wearing a white polo-shirt says GOOD ONE.
Zoey types in "Gzoey" in the laptop.
Zoey says MY NAME IS ZOEY.
THE G IS SILENT.
JUST KIDDING BUT LUKAS GOT ME
WONDERING WHY ENGLISH HAS SO
MANY SILENT LETTERS AND IT TURNS
OUT THERE'S LOTS OF REASONS.
FOR STARTERS, THERE ARE LOTS OF
DIFFERENT WAYS TO PRONOUNCE A E
I O AND U.
SOME LANGUAGES PUT ACCENT MARKS
OVER THE LETTERS TO TELL YOU HOW
TO SAY THEM.
IN ENGLISH WE SOMETIMES ADD
LETTERS LIKE SILENT E TO CHANGE
THE WAY A VOWEL IS PRONOUNCED.
LIKE THE WAY IT
CHANGES MOP TO MOPE.
BUT A BIG REASON WE HAVE SILENT
LETTERS AND WEIRD SPELLINGS IS
THAT WORDS CAME INTO ENGLISH
FROM SO MANY OTHER DIFFERENT
LANGUAGES LIKE LATIN,
GREEK, FRENCH AND MANY MORE.
An animation shows a planet earth giving a heart full of words to a dictionary.
The heart says ARE ALL THESE WORDS FOR ME?
Zoey chuckles and says SO ENGLISH IS TRICKY TO SPELL
BUT IF IT WEREN'T WE WOULDN'T
HAVE SPELLING BEES AND THEN WHAT
WOULD LUKAS DO TO WIN TROPHIES?
Wearing a red cowboy hat, Lukas says SKI JUMPING.
RACE CAR DRIVING.
FLAMING HULA-HOOP CONTEST.
A girl with curly hair says WHAT'S A COWGIRL'S
FAVOURITE SALAD DRESSING?
RANCH.
The caption changes to "Groan."
Kids laugh.
An animated board reads "Game Show."
Dressed as a clown, Lukas places a blackboard on a barn. The blackboard has several letters.
Lukas says SSSSHHHH.
LET'S HAVE A LITTLE FUN
WITH ZOEY'S GAME SHOW.
BooBoo Bot says UH-OH.
LUKAS MAKING A MESS.
OH NO.
He rearranges the letters to create a message.
Lukas says SURPRISE.
The message reads "RODEO CLOWN WAS HERE."
Lukas says HA HA HA HA HA.
I WONDER IF
THEY'LL KNOW IT WAS ME?
NAH.
HOW WOULD THEY KNOW?
BooBoo Bot saysBOOBOO BOT KNOWS.
Contestant clap.
Zoey says HOWDY.
WELCOME TO WORD WRANGLER.
YEE-HAW!
COMPETING TODAY ARE
SARIAH AND LEV ON TEAM HORSE.
Sariah is around 12 years old. She has black hair in a bun. She wears a blue sweater. Lev is around 10 years old. He has brown hair. He wears a beige sweater.
Zoey says AND SAMANTHA AND
NATANEL ON TEAM COW.
Samantha is around 11 years old. She has brown shoulder-length hair. She wears a light blue T-shirt. Natanel is around 11 years old. He has short black hair. He wears a blue T-shirt.
Zoey says TODAY YOU'RE GOING TO BE
MAKING WORDS OUT OF THESE RANDOM
LETTERS
She turns to point at the blackboard and sees Lukas's message on it.
She continues OR NOT SO
RANDOM LETTERS.
SOMEBODY'S GONNA HAVE TO
REORGANIZE THOSE LETTERS LATER
AND MY SOCK DRAWER
AND CLEAN THE BARN.
(gulp)
Lukas says I HOPE SHE
DOESN'T FIGURE OUT IT WAS ME.
BooBoo Bot says IT WAS NOT BOOBOO BOT.
Zoey says SO, HERE'S HOW YOU PLAY.
IN FRONT OF YOU YOU EACH HAVE
THE SAME SET OF LETTER TILES AS
THE ONE ON MY BOARD.
FOR EVERY WORD YOU MAKE
WITH THEM YOU GET 5 POINTS.
PLUS TWO BONUS POINTS IF
YOU USE SILENT LETTERS.
SINCE IT IS POSSIBLE TO USE ALL
THE TILES YOU LOSE A POINT FOR
ANY YOU DON'T USE.
GOT IT?
Sariah says GOT IT.
Natanel says GOT IT.
Zoey says 3, 2, 1, GO!
Lev says IF WE DO IT LIKE THIS.
SUPER.
BooBoo Bot says THAT IS SUPER.
WEE!
Sariah says SO THEN...
Zoey says ISLE IS A GOOD WORD
WITH TWO SILENT LETTERS.
Samantha says OH THERE'S D THERE.
OKAY, WORD.
BooBoo Bot says GOOD WORD.
Sariah says ROW.
ROW, PERFECT.
Samantha says WE COULD DO FOOL.
OH, THAT'S AN E.
NEVER MIND.
Natanel says COOL.
Samantha says SCHOOL.
Zoey says GOOD MOVE.
THE H IN SCHOOL IS
A SILENT LETTER.
Sariah says UM, RED.
Zoey says THEY GOT REALLY GOOD WORDS.
Natanel says WINE.
Samantha says WINE.
Lev says OAR.
Zoey says ONLY 30 SECONDS LEFT.
Sariah says OH, OKAY WAIT.
HOLD ON.
Lev says SEW LOOKS...CUR.
Samantha says WORDS.
The counter runs.
Lev says CUR...CURSE.
Sariah says CURSE.
Lev says THEN WE JUST HAVE AN N LEFT.
Sariah says UH, NOR.
NOR.
NO, RED.
NO, HOW.
Lev says INSTEAD OF REAR
MAYBE WE COULD DO RARE.
Zoey says NICELY DONE.
RARE HAS A SILENT E.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
TIME'S UP.
ALL RIGHT TEAM COW.
LET'S SEE HOW YOU DID.
YOU MADE 5 WORDS.
USED 3 SILENT LETTERS AND
HAD 1 LETTER LEFT OVER.
THAT'S 30 POINTS.
Team Cow's words are "Super, words, school, wine, rare."
She continues TEAM HORSE LET'S
SEE HOW YOU DID.
YOU GOT 7 WORDS.
USED 4 SILENT LETTERS AND
HAD 1 LETTER LEFT OVER.
THAT'S 42 POINTS.
Team Horse's words are "Red, how, curse, sew, oar, isle, pro."
Zoey says YOU WIN.
GOOD JOB.
BooBoo Bot says EXCELLENT SPELLING SKILLS.
Zoey says THANKS FOR PLAYING.
AND SOMEONE'S GONNA GET
THOSE EXTRA CHORES NOW.
Lukas sweeps the floor in the barn.
Zoey says YOOHOO.
DON'T FORGET TO
WASH THE WINDOWS.
Lukas says AW.
I WONDER HOW SHE KNEW IT WAS ME?
BooBoo Bot says HA HA HA HA.
A boy with short black hair says WHAT'S A HORSE'S
FAVOURITE GREETING?
HAY!
Lukas walks into the attic. BooBoo Bot is sleeping.
Lukas says HOWDY BOOBOO BOT.
BooBoo Bot says WHAT IS HOWDY?
Lukas says HOWDY IS A WORD THAT'S
SHORT FOR HOW DO YOU DO.
BooBoo Bot says EFFICIENT.
Lukas says WE COWBOYS LIKE PLAIN TALK.
BooBoo Bot says ME TOO.
Lukas says WHEN I WAS THINKING ABOUT
SILENT LETTERS I WONDERED WHY WE
COULDN'T JUST GET RID OF
SOME LETTERS IN WORDS.
THEN I FOUND OUT
THAT WE ALREADY DO.
IN A SPECIAL KIND OF
WORD CALLED A CONTRACTION.
BooBoo Bot says CONTRACTION?
Lukas says CONTRACTIONS ARE WHEN YOU MUSH
TWO WORDS TOGETHER AND TAKE OUT
SOME OF THE LETTERS
TO FORM A NEW WORD.
BooBoo Bot says CONFUSED.
Lukas says LIKE INSTEAD OF SAYING I WILL
WE CAN JUST TAKE OUT SOME OF THE
LETTERS AND SHORTEN IT TO I'LL.
AND INSTEAD OF SAYING LET
US WE CAN JUST SAY LET'S.
AND WE MAKE A MARK CALLED AN
APOSTROPHE TO SHOW WHERE WE TOOK
OUT THE MISSING LETTERS.
I WISH I COULD HAVE
DONE THAT WITH GNAT.
BooBoo Bot says OH.
IT'S OKAY.
Lukas says SO LET'S TRY IT.
I'LL PROGRAM YOU TO
SHORTEN THE THINGS YOU SAY.
BooBoo Bot says DON'T, DON'T, DON'T...
Lukas says THAT'S RIGHT BOOBOO BOT.
DON'T IS A
CONTRACTION OF DO NOT.
BooBoo Bot says DON'T., DON'T, DON'T...
BooBoo Bot gets too excited and Lukas rushes to turn it off.
Lukas says OKAY BOOBOO BOT.
HOW DO YOU FEEL NOW?
BooBoo Bot says FEEL'ICK.
UH-OH.
TURN'FF.
Lukas says OH, I THINK HE SAID FEEL SICK.
TURN OFF?
BooBoo Bot says TURN'FF.
GON'XPLODE.
Lukas says YOU'RE GONNA EXPLODE?
I GUESS BOOBOO BOT DOESN'T
LIKE SIMPLE TALK AFTER ALL.
In the rodeo, grabbing Lukas' mic, Onomatopoeia says WOOHOO!
BEEBOP!
HONK HONK!
Lukas says DO YOU MIND?
I'M TRYING TO
CLOSE THE SHOW HERE.
SO TODAY WE
FOUND OUT THAT SILENT
LETTERS ARE REALLY
IMPORTANT.
EVEN IF THEY CAN BE
FRUSTRATING AT A SPELLING BEE.
A caption reads "BUZZ!"
Lukas says YES WE KNOW.
BUZZ IS AN ONOMATOPOEIA WORD.
Onomatopoeia says UH, THAT WAS NOT ME.
MUST HAVE BEEN SOME
SORT OF FLYING BUG.
An animated mosquito flies around Onomatopoeia's head.
Lukas says IS THAT A... A GNAT?
The Gnat says NA NA NA
NA GNAT!
Lukas says IT IS.
G-N-A-T.
I WILL GET YOU THIS TIME GNAT.
Lukas runs around with a fly swatter saying G-N-A-T!
The Gnat says NA NA NA...
In the attic, Zoey says SO THAT'S
OUR SHOW.
IT'S TIME
TO GO.
WE HOPE YOU HAD SOME FUN.
Lukas says WITH SILENT E-A
AND ONOMATOPOEIA.
Zoey says AND NOW OUR
SHOW IS DONE.
The gnat flies around BooBoo Bot.
BooBoo Bot says NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
BOOBOO BOT DOES NOT LIKE GNAT.
DOES NOT LIKE GNAT.
Music plays as the end credits roll.
Onomatopoeia sings I'M ONOMATOPOEIA
AND I TELL IT LIKE IT IS.
WHEN I MUNCH I LIKE
TO SLURP AND BURP.
I WANT MY POP TO FIZZ.
I SMACK MY FOOD.
YOU THINK I'M RUDE DON'T
BOO.
CHECK OUT MY ATTITUDE.
THE RODEO QUEEN.

Zoey says ON THE WACKY WORD
SHOW FUN IS NUMBER 1.
As they play the ukulele, animate musical notes come out and the word "Fun" appears in colourful animated letters.
Zoey says NOW WE LOVE BOOKS AND
STORIES.
Lukas jumps inside a dictionary and Zoey closes it.
Lukas says MAKE STUFF UP THAT'S
WHAT WE DO.
Zoey says DID WE MENTION ACTING
WACKY?
They both say YEAH WE DO THAT TOO.
Zoey says WE GOT TONS OF
GUESTS AND BOOBOO BOT.
Different kids appear on several screens.
Booboo Bot is a robot made out of an old typewriter as the body and a tablet as the head.
Lukas says GAMES AND JOKES WITH
YOU.
The song continues IT'S THE WACKY WACKY WORD
SHOW.
THE WACKY WACKY WORD SHOW.
THE WACKY WORD SHOW.
HERE WE GO.
Lukas and Zoey run along with the animated letters.
The song continues THE WACKY WORD SHOW.
SO WACKY!
A clip shows a man riding a horse in a rodeo.
In the attic, Zoey and Lukas walk towards the camera. Lukas swings a rope.
Wearing a blue cowgirl hat, Zoey says HOWDY.
WELCOME TO THE
OKAY RODEO.
I GOT SOME FUN
LIBRARY BOOKS ABOUT
COWBOYS AND COWGIRLS.
SO TODAY WE'RE
GONNA PUT ON OUR VERY
OWN RODEO SHOW.
RIGHT LUKAS?
Lukas gestures shutting his mouth. He is wearing a red cowboy hat.
Zoey says HE'S PRETENDING TO BE
THE STRONG SILENT TYPE
LIKE A COWBOY.
LUKAS WANTED TODAY'S
SHOW TO BE ALL ABOUT
SILENT LETTERS.
She whispers HE LOST A SPELLING
BEE BECAUSE OF THEM.
Lukas says I CAN'T BELIEVE I
LOST TO THE WORD GNAT.
An animated mosquito says NA NA NA NA GNAT!
Lukas says I KNEW IT WAS A BUG I JUST
DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO SPELL IT.
Zoey says BUT YOU CAN SPELL
SO MANY HUGE WORDS.
HOW COULD YOU LOSE ON A
LITTLE WORD LIKE THAT?
Zoey says I DIDN'T KNOW
IT HAD A G.
Zoey says GNAT HAS A G?
Lukas says YEAH.
G-N-A-T.
THE G IS SILENT.
Zoey says BUT WHY HAVE THE G
IF YOU DON'T SAY IT?
Lukas says I KNOW RIGHT?
Zoey says SO TODAY, WE'RE GONNA
PUT SILENT LETTERS
TO THE TEST IN OUR RODEO
CHAMPIONSHIP.
Sad, Lukas says I WISH WORDS COULD BE
SPELLED THE WAY THEY SOUND.
Zoey says AND TO CHEER LUKAS
UP WE'RE GONNA HAVE
SOME WORDS THAT SOUND
EXACTLY LIKE WHAT
THEY MEAN.
THEY'RE CALLED
ONOMATOPOEIA.
NOW HOLD ONTO
YOUR HATS EVERYONE.
WHOA.
A flying caption reads "Whoosh."
The caption changes to "Applause."
In a clip, Lukas and Zoey stand in a rodeo. Lukas is a TV reporter and Zoey is a rodeo queen.
Lukas says THAT'S ONOMATOPOEIA.
THE RODEO QUEEN.
CAN YOU SAY A FEW
WORDS FOR YOUR FANS?
Onomatopoeia says GULP!
MEOW!
SPLAT!
WHOOSH!
DING-DONG!
Lukas says UM, MAYBE SOME DIFFERENT WORDS?
Onomatopoeia says BAM!
CHATTER!
CROAK!
FLIP-FLOP!
Lukas says SORRY.
I MEANT REAL WORDS.
Onomatopoeia says THOSE ARE REAL WORDS.
THEY'RE ONOMATOPOEIA.
JUST LIKE MY NAME.
THEY'RE WORDS THAT
DESCRIBE A SOUND.
Lukas says OH AND THEY SOUND
JUST LIKE THOSE SOUNDS.
Onomatopoeia says SPLASH!
TRICKLE!
TICK-TOCK!
Lukas says UM, YEAH.
I THINK WE
GET IT NOW.
THANKS FOR
TALKING TO US.
Onomatopoeia says SWOOSH!
SIZZLE!
RIBBIT!
RING!
Lukas says ALL RIGHT.
THAT'S ALL WE HAVE
TIME FOR TODAY FOLKS.
Struggling to get the microphone, Onomatopoeia says RIP!
RUSTLE!
SLITHER!
SPLATTER!
Now, Onomatopoeia sings I'M ONOMATOPOEIA
AND I TELL IT LIKE IT IS.
WHEN I MUNCH I LIKE
TO SLURP AND BURP.
I WANT MY POP TO FIZZ.
I SMACK MY FOOD.
YOU THINK I'M RUDE DON'T
BOO.
CHECK OUT MY ATTITUDE.
THE RODEO QUEEN.
OUR RODEO QUEEN.
SHE WANTS HER WORDS TO
SOUND LIKE WHAT THEY MEAN.
She dances and sings
I'M ONOMATOPOEIA AND I
KNOW I'M NOT POLITE.
I BELCH.
I BLURT AND I SNORE ALL
NIGHT.
I TALK THE WAY THE ANIMALS DO
WITH NEIGHS AND OINKS AND
HOOTS AND WOOTS.
SOMETIMES I
COCK-A-DOODLE-DO.
THE RODEO QUEEN.
OUR RODEO QUEEN.
SHE WANTS HER WORDS TO
SOUND LIKE WHAT THEY MEAN.
SHE WANTS HER WORDS TO
SOUND LIKE WHAT THEY MEAN.
SHE WANTS HER WORDS TO
SOUND LIKE WHAT THEY MEAN.
Back in the attic, Lukas stands next to the TV.
He says LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN THINK OF
OTHER WORDS THAT SOUND LIKE
WHAT THEY MEAN.
A boy with a black T-shirt says CRUNCH!
A girl wearing glasses says BARK!
A boy wearing a white polo-shirt says BEES GO BUZZ.
A girl with long hair says THE WORD POP
BECAUSE IT POPS LIKE...
POP!
A girl with curly hair says WHEN A CAT MEOWS.
MEOW!
She chuckles.
The girl wearing glasses says BUBBLE BECAUSE
BUBBLES THEY LIKE...
A girl with short red hair says WHEN YOU BANG
SOMETHING IT SOUNDS LIKE BANG.
A boy with long hair says BANG.
Lukas says SPEAKING OF SOUNDS, DON'T YOU
WISH ALL WORDS COULD BE SPELLED
EXACTLY THE WAY THEY SOUND?
The boy with a black T-shirt says YES BECAUSE THEN IT WOULD BE
MAKING WRITING WEDNESDAY SO MUCH
EASIER.
BooBoo Bot says BOOBOO BOT AGREE.
WHY SILENT LETTERS?
Zoey says THIS IS THE BALLAD OF
SILENT E.
HE DOESN'T LIKE TO TALK.
HE STANDS AROUND WITH THE OTHER
WORDS BUT STILL HIS LIPS ARE
LOCKED.
An animation shows the story of silent E.
Zoey continues HE MAKES CAR CARE.
HE MAKES BAR BARE.
SO EVEN THOUGH HE'S NEVER HEARD.
Silent E says SHHH.
Zoey says HE'S POPULAR WITH ALL THE
WORDS.
Letters say SQUEAK. SQUEAK. SQUEAK...
Zoey says HE MAKES RAT RATE.
Letters say YAY, WOOHOO!
Zoey says HE MAKES HAT HATE.
Letters say RRRR.
A hat says WHO COULD HATE A HAT?
Zoey says THEN HE'S OFF TO
CHANGE ANOTHER WORD.
THE SILENT E YOU'VE NEVER HEARD.
The hat says TELL ME YOU LIKE ME.
PLEASE TELL ME.
Zoey says HE'S SILENT E.
HE'S SILENT E.
Silent E walks towards the sunset.
The hat says COME ON.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH A HAT?
EVERYBODY LIKES A HAT.
A woman rides a horse in a rodeo.
A boy with curly hair says WHY DID THE
COWBOY RIDE HIS HORSE?
BECAUSE IT WAS
TOO HEAVY TO CARRY.
A caption reads "Laughter."
Kids laugh.
An animated board reads "Wacky Challenge."
Zoey and Lukas say IT'S THE WACKY CHALLENGE
WITH YOUR HOSTS ZOEY AND LUKAS.
Zoey and Lukas sit at a desk wearing checked red and black jackets and wigs.
Zoey says I THINK IT'S TIME
TO HAVE SOME REAL
LIVE RODEO FUN.
DON'T YOU THINK?
Lukas says WE'VE GOT A WILD
RIDE OF A CHALLENGE
IN THIS RODEO.
HOWDY COWGIRLS
AND COWBOYS.
The contestants say HOWDY.
Zoey says TODAY'S CHALLENGERS ARE
RUBY AND SOPHIE ON TEAM TEXAS.
Ruby is around 10 years old with blond hair tied-up. She wears a cowgirl hat, a blue handkerchief and a beige T-shirt. Sophie is around 11 years old. She wears a cowgirl hat, a blue handkerchief and a dark blue long sleeved T-shirt.
Ruby and Sophie say YEE HAW.
Zoey says AND WE HAVE
JONATHAN AND NATE
ON TEAM ALBERTA.
Jonathan is around 11 years old. He has red hair. He wears a cowboy hat, a red handkerchief and a gray T-shirt. Nate is around 11 years old. He has brown hair. He wears a red cowboy hat, a red handkerchief and a blue sweater.
Jonathan and Nate say YIPPEE.
Lukas says HERE'S HOW THIS
CHALLENGE WORKS.
SOME OF THESE WORDS BEHIND YOU
HAVE SILENT LETTERS BUT TO TRICK
YOU SOME DON'T HAVE ANY.
Signs with words rest on hay bales.
He continues ALL AROUND THE ARENA ARE A BUNCH
OF RANDOM HANGING LETTERS AND
ONLY SOME OF THEM ARE THE SILENT
LETTERS YOU'RE LOOKING FOR.
Zoey says YOUR JOB IS TO KNOCK OFF AS MANY
HANGING SILENT LETTERS AS YOU
CAN BUT REMEMBER YOU'RE ONLY
LOOKING FOR THE SILENT LETTERS
FROM THE WORDS BEHIND YOU.
Lukas says TEAM TEXAS IS UP FIRST.
TEAM ALBERTA GO BACK TO YOUR
STABLES SO YOU CAN'T SEE WHICH
LETTERS THEY KNOCKED OFF.
Zoey says GO!
A counter reads "2:00."
Sophie says GIDDY UP HORSEY.
YEE-HAW.
Sophie sits in a cart as Ruby pulls it wearing a horse costume.
Ruby says LET'S GET THE E IN COWPOKE.
Sophie says WHOA.
Ruby says HIT IT.
Zoey says THERE ARE 4 WORDS WITH SILENT
E'S AT THE END LIKE COWPOKE.
Ruby says STAMPEDE HAS ANOTHER ONE.
Sophie says WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
Lukas says THEY'RE RIGHT.
Sophie says KEEP GOING.
Ruby says OH, THE K IN KNOT.
Sophie says WAIT A SECOND, OKAY.
OH HERE'S THE K.
Sophie uses a stick to knock off a small ball.
Zoey says THAT'S ONE MORE FOR TEAM
TEXAS.
Lukas says THE K IN THE WORD
KNOT IS SILENT.
WE DON'T SAY K-NOT.
Zoey says THERE'S A SECOND
WORD WITH THE SILENT K.
WILL THEY FIND IT?
Sophie says KEEP GOING FASTER.
Lukas says LESS THAN A MINUTE TO GO.
Ruby says DID YOU GET A D FOR
WEDNESDAY?
Sophie says D, STOP.
Lukas says AND THEY'VE GOT THE
SILENT D IN WEDNESDAY.
WE DON'T SAY
WED-NESDAY.
Zoey says WILL THEY REMEMBER
THE SILENT E IN
WEDNESDAY TOO?
Sophie says FASTER, FASTER.
Ruby says THERE'S T IN RUSTLE.
Sophie says OH THERE'S A T.
Zoey says YUP AND IT'S ALSO ANOTHER
WORD WITH A SILENT E AT THE END.
A number reads "5."
Ruby says OH THERE'S A B IN LAMB.
Sophie says OKAY, LET'S GET THE B.
Lukas says ONLY A FEW SECONDS LEFT.
Ruby says GET THE B.
Sophie says YES.
Zoey says THAT'S RIGHT.
WE SAY LAMB
NOT LAM-B.
The number changes to "7."
Sophie says YOU THINK THERE'S A
SILENT E IN WEDNESDAY?
I'M JUST GONNA TAKE THE E.
Ruby says OKAY, I HOPE IT'S A GOOD ONE.
Zoey says YES IT IS.
(buzzer)
Zoey says TIME'S UP.
Lukas says TEAM ALBERTA, GO!
Nate says GIDDY UP.
The counter starts again.
Jonathan says NEIGH.
Zoey says LOOK AT THOSE SPEEDY
COWBOYS GO.
THEY'RE HAVING A GOOD OLD TIME.
Lukas says BUT THEY'RE NOT
KNOCKING OFF ANY LETTERS.
Jonathan says THE B IN LAMB.
Zoey says LOOKS LIKE HE JUST SPOTTED
ONE.
Nate knocks off a letter and falls.
Lukas says OH, TEAM ALBERTA TOOK A
SPILL.
OUCH.
Nate says GIDDY UP.
Jonathan says NEIGH.
Zoey says BUT THE COWBOY AND
HIS HORSE ARE OKAY.
Lukas says THEY'LL HAVE TO HURRY
UP IF THEY WANT TO WIN.
TWO LETTERS.
NICE.
TEAM ALBERTA GOT
HE SILENT E AT THE END
OF THE WORD STAMPEDE.
Zoey says THEY ALSO FOUND KNEE THAT'S THE
SECOND WORD WITH THE SILENT K.
A number reads "3."
Jonathan says GET THE G IN GNAW.
Zoey says NICE ONE.
WE DON'T SAY G-NAW.
Lukas says WOW.
THEY'RE REALLY SPEEDING UP NOW
BUT WILL IT BE ENOUGH TO WIN?
Jonathan says OH WRANGLE IT HAS A W.
GO GET IT.
Lukas says YUP.
IT'S PRONOUNCED WRANGLE
AS IF THE WORD STARTS
WITH THE LETTER R.
The number changes to "5."
Jonathan says THERE'S NO MORE.
Zoey says HA.
YOU'RE WRONG THAT THERE'S NO
MORE SILENT LETTERS BUT YOU'RE
RIGHT THAT THERE'S NO MORE TIME.
(buzzer)
Zoey says TIME'S UP.
LET'S SEE HOW
MANY SILENT LETTERS
YOU HAVE.
Lukas says TEAM ALBERTA, EVEN IF YOU LOST
SOME PRECIOUS TIME YOU STILL
MANAGED TO GET 5 POINTS.
Zoey says AND TEAM TEXAS
YOU GOT 8 POINTS.
YOU'RE THE WINNERS.
GOOD JOB.
The girls say WOOHOO.
YEE-HAW.
Zoey says NOW DON'T BE SILENT.
They say YEE-HAW.
(laughing)
(neigh)
A boy wearing a blue T-shirt says ONCE A COWBOY WENT TO TEXAS.
HE WENT ON FRIDAY AND CAME BACK
ON FRIDAY BUT HE ONLY STAYED FOR
2 DAYS.
HOW IS IT POSSIBLE?
BooBoo Bot says DOES NOT COMPUTE.
The boy wearing a blue T-shirt says HIS HORSE WAS NAMED FRIDAY.
Kids laugh.
BooBoo Bot says I GET IT.
HA HA.
Back in the attic, Lukas says WANT TO MEET SOMEONE
WHO KNOWS REAL COUNTRY
WESTERN SONGS?
Zoey plays the Ukele and sings HE WRITES SONGS
AND HE SINGS.
Lukas sings AND HE KNOWS A
LOT OF FUN THINGS.
Zoey says PLEASE WELCOME
LI'L ANDY.
Li'l Andy comes in playing country music on his guitar. He is in his late twenties, clean-shaven with red hair. He wears a hat, a black suit, white shirt and yellow tie.
Zoey says WOW.
Lukas says GOOD JOB.
Li'l Andy says HOWDY FOLKS.
Li'l Andy SAYS OH YEAH.
SO YOU KNOW HOW THEY
CALL YOU LI'L ANDY?
DOES THAT MAKE
ME BIG LUKAS?
Li'l Andy says THAT SEEMS LIKE A REALLY
GOOD STAGE NAME IF YOU ASK ME.
Lukas says ARE ALL COUNTRY
SONGS SAD?
MOST OF THEM SEEM
PRETTY SAD.
Li'l Andy says A LOT OF THEM MAY SEEM SAD.
A LOT OF THE TIMES THE SINGER
SOUNDS SAD BUT REALLY WHAT HE OR
SHE IS SINGING
ABOUT IS PRETTY HAPPY.
LIKE I HAVE A COUNTRY SONG
THAT'S ABOUT BREAKFAST AND
BREAKFAST IS A MEAL THAT MAKES
ME REALLY HAPPY AND ONE DAY I
WAS EATING BREAKFAST AND I
THOUGHT THAT THE BACON AND EGGS
I WAS EATING WERE REALLY GOOD SO
I STARTED SINGING.
He sings BEGGIN' AND
ACHIN' FOR EGGS
AND BACON.
THE WALLS GOT TO SHAKIN'
FROM THIS MERRY MAKIN'.
He says BUT SOMETIMES SONGS REALLY ARE
SAD LIKE I WAS THINKING ABOUT
HOW MY SON WAS GONNA GET OLDER
AND HE WOULDN'T BE A LITTLE BOY
FOR HIS WHOLE LIFE AND THAT MADE
ME REALLY SAD SO I MADE UP A
SONG THAT WENT.
He sings YOU'RE ONLY A BABY BOY FOR SO
LONG.
SO LONG, SO LONG.
YOU'RE ONLY A BABY
BOY FOR SO LONG.
COME ON DOWN AND SPEND THE
DAY.
He says AND THEN, ONCE I HAD WRITTEN
THAT SONG, I WASN'T SO SAD ABOUT
IT ANYMORE AND IT WAS A GOOD
WAY TO GET THROUGH ALL MY SAD
FEELINGS.
Lukas says IF WE WANTED TO WRITE
OUR OWN COUNTRY SONG,
HOW COULD WE START?
Li'l Andy says AN EASY WAY TO START IS TO JUST
TO TAKE A SONG THAT YOU ALREADY
KNOW AND PUT NEW WORDS TO IT.
SO YOU COULD DO
SOMETHING LIKE MARY HAD
A LITTLE LAMB AND DO
LIKE...
He sings MARY HAD A LITTLE
LAMB, LITTLE LAMB.
LITTLE LAMB.
MARY ATE A LITTLE HAM.
IT WAS WHITE AS SNOW.
He says AND JUST PUT A
DIFFERENT WORD IN THERE.
Lukas says YEAH.
Li'l Andy says SO IF YOU COULD THINK OF A WORD
THAT RHYMED WITH MARY HAD A
LITTLE LAMB, I'LL PLAY IT.
Li'l Andy plays the guitar.
Lukas sings MARY HAD SOME
YUMMY CLAM.
A YUMMY CLAM.
A YUMMY CLAM.
MARY HAD A TASTY
CLAM AND IT WAS
REALLY GOOD.
Li'l Andy says SEE?
AND NOW THERE'S A
COUNTRY SONG ABOUT
MARY EATING CLAMS THAT
DIDN'T EVEN
EXIST BEFORE.
They chuckle.
Lukas says IT'S MINE NOW.
Li'l Andy says ZOEY, WHAT ABOUT YOU?
Zoey says MARY HAD SOME
TOAST WITH
JAM.
Li'l Andy says TOAST WITH JAM.
Zoey sings TOAST WITH
JAM.
MARY HAD SOME
TOAST WITH JAM AND IT
WAS SUPER DUPER GOOD.
Zoey chuckles.
Li'l Andy says NOW WE HAVE 2 COUNTRY
SONGS THAT DIDN'T EXIST BEFORE.
LET'S GO A STEP FURTHER AND
MAYBE MAKE OUR OWN MUSIC AND ADD
TOTALLY NEW WORDS.
SO, SINCE THIS
SHOW IS ABOUT
ONOMATOPOEIA...
Li'l Andy sings ZOEY WAS WALKING BY A
CANTALOUPE STAND.
SHE PUT A
CANTALOUPE IN HER HANDS.
SHE STUMBLED AND TRIPPED UPON
THE STREET AND THE CANTALOUPE
FELL DOWN AT HER FEET.
AND IT WENT ZOOM!
AND IT WENT SPLAT!
AND IT WENT BOOM!
AND THAT WAS THAT.
AND IT WENT ZING!
AND CRACK!
AND THAT WAS THAT.
'CAUSE IT WENT SPLAT!
(clapping)
Li'l Andy says SO NOW WE HAVE A NEW
SONG.
They sing AND IT WENT ZOOM!
AND IT WENT SPLAT!
AND IT WENT BOOM!
AND THAT WAS THAT.
AND IT WENT ZING!
AND CRACK!
AND THAT WAS THAT.
'CAUSE IT WENT SPLAT!
Li'l Andy says GOOD JOB.
They bow.
Zoey says WELL THANKS ANDY
FOR COMING OVER.
IT WAS SO MUCH FUN.
Lukas says YEE-HAW!
Li'l Andy says HEY.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR HAVING ME
COME TO YOUR PLACE AND TALK
ABOUT COUNTRY MUSIC.
The girl wearing glasses says WHY DID THE COWBOY GET
IN TROUBLE IN CLASS?
HE WAS ALWAYS HORSING AROUND.
The boy wearing a white polo-shirt says GOOD ONE.
Zoey types in "Gzoey" in the laptop.
Zoey says MY NAME IS ZOEY.
THE G IS SILENT.
JUST KIDDING BUT LUKAS GOT ME
WONDERING WHY ENGLISH HAS SO
MANY SILENT LETTERS AND IT TURNS
OUT THERE'S LOTS OF REASONS.
FOR STARTERS, THERE ARE LOTS OF
DIFFERENT WAYS TO PRONOUNCE A E
I O AND U.
SOME LANGUAGES PUT ACCENT MARKS
OVER THE LETTERS TO TELL YOU HOW
TO SAY THEM.
IN ENGLISH WE SOMETIMES ADD
LETTERS LIKE SILENT E TO CHANGE
THE WAY A VOWEL IS PRONOUNCED.
LIKE THE WAY IT
CHANGES MOP TO MOPE.
BUT A BIG REASON WE HAVE SILENT
LETTERS AND WEIRD SPELLINGS IS
THAT WORDS CAME INTO ENGLISH
FROM SO MANY OTHER DIFFERENT
LANGUAGES LIKE LATIN,
GREEK, FRENCH AND MANY MORE.
An animation shows a planet earth giving a heart full of words to a dictionary.
The heart says ARE ALL THESE WORDS FOR ME?
Zoey chuckles and says SO ENGLISH IS TRICKY TO SPELL
BUT IF IT WEREN'T WE WOULDN'T
HAVE SPELLING BEES AND THEN WHAT
WOULD LUKAS DO TO WIN TROPHIES?
Wearing a red cowboy hat, Lukas says SKI JUMPING.
RACE CAR DRIVING.
FLAMING HULA-HOOP CONTEST.
A girl with curly hair says WHAT'S A COWGIRL'S
FAVOURITE SALAD DRESSING?
RANCH.
The caption changes to "Groan."
Kids laugh.
An animated board reads "Game Show."
Dressed as a clown, Lukas places a blackboard on a barn. The blackboard has several letters.
Lukas says SSSSHHHH.
LET'S HAVE A LITTLE FUN
WITH ZOEY'S GAME SHOW.
BooBoo Bot says UH-OH.
LUKAS MAKING A MESS.
OH NO.
He rearranges the letters to create a message.
Lukas says SURPRISE.
The message reads "RODEO CLOWN WAS HERE."
Lukas says HA HA HA HA HA.
I WONDER IF
THEY'LL KNOW IT WAS ME?
NAH.
HOW WOULD THEY KNOW?
BooBoo Bot saysBOOBOO BOT KNOWS.
Contestant clap.
Zoey says HOWDY.
WELCOME TO WORD WRANGLER.
YEE-HAW!
COMPETING TODAY ARE
SARIAH AND LEV ON TEAM HORSE.
Sariah is around 12 years old. She has black hair in a bun. She wears a blue sweater. Lev is around 10 years old. He has brown hair. He wears a beige sweater.
Zoey says AND SAMANTHA AND
NATANEL ON TEAM COW.
Samantha is around 11 years old. She has brown shoulder-length hair. She wears a light blue T-shirt. Natanel is around 11 years old. He has short black hair. He wears a blue T-shirt.
Zoey says TODAY YOU'RE GOING TO BE
MAKING WORDS OUT OF THESE RANDOM
LETTERS
She turns to point at the blackboard and sees Lukas's message on it.
She continues OR NOT SO
RANDOM LETTERS.
SOMEBODY'S GONNA HAVE TO
REORGANIZE THOSE LETTERS LATER
AND MY SOCK DRAWER
AND CLEAN THE BARN.
(gulp)
Lukas says I HOPE SHE
DOESN'T FIGURE OUT IT WAS ME.
BooBoo Bot says IT WAS NOT BOOBOO BOT.
Zoey says SO, HERE'S HOW YOU PLAY.
IN FRONT OF YOU YOU EACH HAVE
THE SAME SET OF LETTER TILES AS
THE ONE ON MY BOARD.
FOR EVERY WORD YOU MAKE
WITH THEM YOU GET 5 POINTS.
PLUS TWO BONUS POINTS IF
YOU USE SILENT LETTERS.
SINCE IT IS POSSIBLE TO USE ALL
THE TILES YOU LOSE A POINT FOR
ANY YOU DON'T USE.
GOT IT?
Sariah says GOT IT.
Natanel says GOT IT.
Zoey says 3, 2, 1, GO!
Lev says IF WE DO IT LIKE THIS.
SUPER.
BooBoo Bot says THAT IS SUPER.
WEE!
Sariah says SO THEN...
Zoey says ISLE IS A GOOD WORD
WITH TWO SILENT LETTERS.
Samantha says OH THERE'S D THERE.
OKAY, WORD.
BooBoo Bot says GOOD WORD.
Sariah says ROW.
ROW, PERFECT.
Samantha says WE COULD DO FOOL.
OH, THAT'S AN E.
NEVER MIND.
Natanel says COOL.
Samantha says SCHOOL.
Zoey says GOOD MOVE.
THE H IN SCHOOL IS
A SILENT LETTER.
Sariah says UM, RED.
Zoey says THEY GOT REALLY GOOD WORDS.
Natanel says WINE.
Samantha says WINE.
Lev says OAR.
Zoey says ONLY 30 SECONDS LEFT.
Sariah says OH, OKAY WAIT.
HOLD ON.
Lev says SEW LOOKS...CUR.
Samantha says WORDS.
The counter runs.
Lev says CUR...CURSE.
Sariah says CURSE.
Lev says THEN WE JUST HAVE AN N LEFT.
Sariah says UH, NOR.
NOR.
NO, RED.
NO, HOW.
Lev says INSTEAD OF REAR
MAYBE WE COULD DO RARE.
Zoey says NICELY DONE.
RARE HAS A SILENT E.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
TIME'S UP.
ALL RIGHT TEAM COW.
LET'S SEE HOW YOU DID.
YOU MADE 5 WORDS.
USED 3 SILENT LETTERS AND
HAD 1 LETTER LEFT OVER.
THAT'S 30 POINTS.
Team Cow's words are "Super, words, school, wine, rare."
She continues TEAM HORSE LET'S
SEE HOW YOU DID.
YOU GOT 7 WORDS.
USED 4 SILENT LETTERS AND
HAD 1 LETTER LEFT OVER.
THAT'S 42 POINTS.
Team Horse's words are "Red, how, curse, sew, oar, isle, pro."
Zoey says YOU WIN.
GOOD JOB.
BooBoo Bot says EXCELLENT SPELLING SKILLS.
Zoey says THANKS FOR PLAYING.
AND SOMEONE'S GONNA GET
THOSE EXTRA CHORES NOW.
Lukas sweeps the floor in the barn.
Zoey says YOOHOO.
DON'T FORGET TO
WASH THE WINDOWS.
Lukas says AW.
I WONDER HOW SHE KNEW IT WAS ME?
BooBoo Bot says HA HA HA HA.
A boy with short black hair says WHAT'S A HORSE'S
FAVOURITE GREETING?
HAY!
Lukas walks into the attic. BooBoo Bot is sleeping.
Lukas says HOWDY BOOBOO BOT.
BooBoo Bot says WHAT IS HOWDY?
Lukas says HOWDY IS A WORD THAT'S
SHORT FOR HOW DO YOU DO.
BooBoo Bot says EFFICIENT.
Lukas says WE COWBOYS LIKE PLAIN TALK.
BooBoo Bot says ME TOO.
Lukas says WHEN I WAS THINKING ABOUT
SILENT LETTERS I WONDERED WHY WE
COULDN'T JUST GET RID OF
SOME LETTERS IN WORDS.
THEN I FOUND OUT
THAT WE ALREADY DO.
IN A SPECIAL KIND OF
WORD CALLED A CONTRACTION.
BooBoo Bot says CONTRACTION?
Lukas says CONTRACTIONS ARE WHEN YOU MUSH
TWO WORDS TOGETHER AND TAKE OUT
SOME OF THE LETTERS
TO FORM A NEW WORD.
BooBoo Bot says CONFUSED.
Lukas says LIKE INSTEAD OF SAYING I WILL
WE CAN JUST TAKE OUT SOME OF THE
LETTERS AND SHORTEN IT TO I'LL.
AND INSTEAD OF SAYING LET
US WE CAN JUST SAY LET'S.
AND WE MAKE A MARK CALLED AN
APOSTROPHE TO SHOW WHERE WE TOOK
OUT THE MISSING LETTERS.
I WISH I COULD HAVE
DONE THAT WITH GNAT.
BooBoo Bot says OH.
IT'S OKAY.
Lukas says SO LET'S TRY IT.
I'LL PROGRAM YOU TO
SHORTEN THE THINGS YOU SAY.
BooBoo Bot says DON'T, DON'T, DON'T...
Lukas says THAT'S RIGHT BOOBOO BOT.
DON'T IS A
CONTRACTION OF DO NOT.
BooBoo Bot says DON'T., DON'T, DON'T...
BooBoo Bot gets too excited and Lukas rushes to turn it off.
Lukas says OKAY BOOBOO BOT.
HOW DO YOU FEEL NOW?
BooBoo Bot says FEEL'ICK.
UH-OH.
TURN'FF.
Lukas says OH, I THINK HE SAID FEEL SICK.
TURN OFF?
BooBoo Bot says TURN'FF.
GON'XPLODE.
Lukas says YOU'RE GONNA EXPLODE?
I GUESS BOOBOO BOT DOESN'T
LIKE SIMPLE TALK AFTER ALL.
In the rodeo, grabbing Lukas' mic, Onomatopoeia says WOOHOO!
BEEBOP!
HONK HONK!
Lukas says DO YOU MIND?
I'M TRYING TO
CLOSE THE SHOW HERE.
SO TODAY WE
FOUND OUT THAT SILENT
LETTERS ARE REALLY
IMPORTANT.
EVEN IF THEY CAN BE
FRUSTRATING AT A SPELLING BEE.
A caption reads "BUZZ!"
Lukas says YES WE KNOW.
BUZZ IS AN ONOMATOPOEIA WORD.
Onomatopoeia says UH, THAT WAS NOT ME.
MUST HAVE BEEN SOME
SORT OF FLYING BUG.
An animated mosquito flies around Onomatopoeia's head.
Lukas says IS THAT A... A GNAT?
The Gnat says NA NA NA
NA GNAT!
Lukas says IT IS.
G-N-A-T.
I WILL GET YOU THIS TIME GNAT.
Lukas runs around with a fly swatter saying G-N-A-T!
The Gnat says NA NA NA...
In the attic, Zoey says SO THAT'S
OUR SHOW.
IT'S TIME
TO GO.
WE HOPE YOU HAD SOME FUN.
Lukas says WITH SILENT E-A
AND ONOMATOPOEIA.
Zoey says AND NOW OUR
SHOW IS DONE.
The gnat flies around BooBoo Bot.
BooBoo Bot says NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
BOOBOO BOT DOES NOT LIKE GNAT.
DOES NOT LIKE GNAT.
Music plays as the end credits roll.
Onomatopoeia sings I'M ONOMATOPOEIA
AND I TELL IT LIKE IT IS.
WHEN I MUNCH I LIKE
TO SLURP AND BURP.
I WANT MY POP TO FIZZ.
I SMACK MY FOOD.
YOU THINK I'M RUDE DON'T
BOO.
CHECK OUT MY ATTITUDE.
THE RODEO QUEEN.
OUR RODEO QUEEN.
SHE WANTS HER WORDS TO
