A caption on the bottom left corner of the screen reads "Best of That TVO Kids Show."

The opening of "Tree Fort News" rolls.

Landon sits in the studio and says OH, HELLO, WELCOME TO TREE
FORT NEWS.
I'M, I'M LANDON FOG, AND TODAY
OUR TOP STORY IS A GOOD ONE.
TOP STORY TODAY IS RATS DRIVING
CARS.
THAT'S RIGHT.
SCIENTISTS HAVE TRAINED RATS TO
DRIVE AROUND IN TINY RAT-SIZED
CARS.
NOW THE RATS HAVE CONTROLS IN
THEIR VEHICLES, AND THEY CAN...
WHAT?
THEY CAN GO RIGHT, AND YOU CAN
SEE IN THIS VIDEO THESE RATS CAN
EVEN MOVE FORWARD, YES.
VERY TALENTED RATS.
THEY ARE REWARDED WITH FROOT
LOOPS FOR SUCCESSFUL TRIPS.
WE GO TO OUR EXPERT LAB RAT
NO. 14 FROM HER CAR.
HELLO, RAT NO. 14.

In a rat costume, Laura says HI.
ACTUALLY, I'M IN AN ROV,
RAT-OPERATED VEHICLE.
(HONKING).

Landon says NOW FIRST OF ALL I'M
WONDERING, IS IT SAFE FOR YOU TO
BE DRIVING WHILE WE'RE TALKING
TO YOU?

Rat says YEAH, IT'S A HANDS-FREE
DEVICE.
TOTALLY SAFE.
I'M A GREAT DRIVER, LANDON!
WHOO!

Landon says I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THAT.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN DRIVING,
RAT NO. 14?

Rat says OH, YES, TWO WEEKS.
(HONKING) WHOO!

Landon says YES, BE CAREFUL.
AND DON'T TAKE THIS THE WRONG
WAY, BUT WHY DID SCIENTISTS
THINK IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO
TEACH RATS TO DRIVE?

Rat says WELL, APPARENTLY RAT BRAINS
ARE SIMILAR TO YOUR HUMAN
BRAINS, AND THEY WANTED TO SEE
IF DRIVING WOULD REDUCE ANXIETY.
YOU HUMANS GET... STRESS
HORMONES AFTER WE DROVE, GROSS,
BY THE WAY.
AND SURE ENOUGH WE WERE LESS
STRESSED.

She honks.

(HONKING).

Landon says OKAY, WELL, THAT IS RATHER
GROS.
ALSO I'M WONDERING IF MAYBE YOUR
POOP WAS WRONG BECAUSE YOU SEEM
A BIT STRESSED.

Rat says WELL, YOU KNOW, THERE WASN'T
ALL THIS TRAFFIC IN THE LAB.

Landon says OH.
(HONKING).

Landon says OKAY, NOW MAY I ASK YOU, WHY
DO YOU KEEP SHOUTING FRUIT
LOOPS?

Rat says WELL, I NEED TO GET TO A
PLACE CALLED A GROCERY STORE.
I HEAR IT'S FULL OF WHOLE BOXES
OF FROOT LOOPS.
I'M A LITTLE CONCERNED, THOUGH.

Landon says WHY IS THAT, RAT NO. 14?

Rat says WELL, MY ROV DOESN'T HAVE ANY
BRAKES!

Landon says OH.

Rat says WHOA!

Landon says OH!
OH, DEAR.

Rat says I'M OKAY.
I'M OKAY!
OH, NO!

Rat says OH, SOMETHING HAPPENED TO RAT
NO. 14.
WELL, ANYWAY, WHO KNOWS, BUT WE
DO KNOW THAT RATS ARE DRIVING
CARS.
I'M LANDON FOG.
THAT WAS THE NEWS.
WE'LL CATCH YOU NEXT TIME ON
TREE FORT NEWS.
