Lucas is in his twenties, with short puffy brown hair and wears jeans and an orange T-shirt.

Laura is in her twenties, with above the shoulders straight brown hair with bangs and wears jeans and a purple T-shirt.

As a song plays, Lucas and Laura walk in the woods, cross a bridge, balance on a fallen tree trunk, cross a stream, run across the city and in a park full of geese. Fast clips show them next to Greg playing and having fun in the tree fort. Greg is in his twenties, with short black hair. He wears a blue sweater.

The song says PACK UP YOUR BAGS KISS YOUR TURTLE GOOD-BYE COME UP AND CLIMB WHERE WE CAN TOUCH THE SKY SO MUCH TO SEE SO MUCH TO DO IN OUR TREE FORT WE'VE GOT A SHOW FOR YOU THAT TVOkids SHOW THAT TVOkids SHOW THAT TVOkids SHOW THAT TVOkids SHOW.

[Greg shrieking]

Laura says PASSWORD, PLEASE.

The word "Blank Paper" appears in the sky.

In animation, a dialogue bubble pops out of a map with the title of the show: "That TVO Kids Show."

The song continues LA, LA, LA, DO, DO, DO, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH THAT TVOKIDS SHOW! THAT TVOkids SHOW.

Inside the tree fort, Lucas stands near an easel board with the word "Ideas" written on it. He's wearing a blue sweater. Nearby, Laura sits on the floor wearing a burgundy jacket.

Lucas says OKAY, SO, TELL ME ABOUT THE STORY FROM YESTERDAY.

Lucas says IT WAS REALLY COOL FROM A TVOKIDS NAMED JOVEN AND WAS ABOUT A COMMUNITY OF ALIENS IN A CEREAL BOWL.

Lucas says THE GREEN ALIENS. SUCH A GOOD STORY AND NOW WE HAVE TO WRITE IT.

Lucas says YEAH. WE JUST HAVE TO BEGIN BECAUSE IT'S SUCH A GREAT IDEA WE HAVE TO MAKE IT GREAT.

Lucas says WE JUST NEED ONE AMAZING SENTENCE TO START IT OFF.

Lucas says COOL. LET'S DO IT.

Lucas says OKAY.

Lucas says WHERE DO WE START?

Lucas says WE START... WHAT'S AN IDEA?

Lucas says WELL THE CEREAL, HELLO.

Lucas says OH.

Lucas says UMM.

Lucas says HOW ABOUT UMM.

Lucas says OR WE COULD... NO.

Lucas says I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING RIGHT NOW.

Lucas says I'VE HEARD OF THIS.

Lucas says REALLY?

Lucas says YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS?

Lucas says WHAT?

Lucas says IT'S WRITER'S BLOCK.

Lucas says NO, HOLD ON WE MUST HAVE SOME SORT OF IDEA IN OUR BRAIN.

Lucas says WE DON'T HAVE ANY IDEAS BECAUSE WE HAVE WRITER'S BLOCK.

Lucas says WE MUST. OH I HAVE A REALLY GOOD IDEA.

Lucas says GOOD WHAT IS IT?

Lucas says I'LL TELEPORT INTO YOUR BRAIN AND LOOK FOR AN IDEA THERE AND BRING ONE BACK.

She puts on a red helmet with cables and electronic devices sticking out of it.

Lucas says GOOD LUCK. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'LL FIND ANYTHING.

Laura appears inside a blank space.

She says WHOA.

Lucas says ARE YOU IN THERE?

Lucas says YEAH.

Lucas says WHAT DO YOU SEE?

Lucas says I'M IN HERE AND UMM THERE'S NOTHING AT ALL.

Lucas says REALLY?

Lucas says YEAH. LIKE NOT A SINGLE THING ANYWHERE.

Lucas says NOTHING?

Lucas says YEAH.

Lucas says DID YOU CHECK EVERY CORNER.

Lucas says THIS IS IT.

She teleports back into the tree fort.

Lucas says OH. OKAY, WELCOME BACK AND I'LL TRY TO GO IN YOUR BRAIN.

Lucas says OKAY.

Lucas says OKAY. YOU WERE RIGHT.

Lucas says THAT WAS WEIRD.

Lucas says I KNOW, OKAY. YEAH, I'M GOING INTO YOUR BRAIN AND SEE, MAYBE... YOU ALWAYS HAVE GREAT IDEAS.

He puts on a yellow helmet that looks like the one Laura wore.

Lucas says THERE HAS TO BE SOME IDEAS IN MY BRAIN.

Lucas appears inside a blank space.

He says HERE WE GO! I MADE IT.

Lucas says OKAY. WHAT DO YOU SEE?

Lucas says ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

Lucas says REALLY?

Lucas says YEAH THERE IS NOTHING IN HERE EITHER.

Lucas says ORKS WELCOME BACK... OKAY, COME BACK. HURRY.

Lucas says THIS IS EMBARRASSING.

Lucas returns to the tree fort.

Lucas says OH WE DO HAVE WRITER'S BLOCK.

Lucas says I KNOW.

Lucas says THERE IS NO IDEAS IN OUR BRAIN AT ALL. WHAT WILL WE DO?

Lucas says I DON'T KNOW. THIS WEEK IS ALL ABOUT READING AND WRITING.

Lucas says OH NO.

Lucas says WE'LL JUST HAVE TO GET HELP.

Lucas says FROM A TVOKID.

[Frog horn]

Lucas says WHO IS CALLING RIGHT NOW? YOU HAH THEY NEVER LET US US DOWN.

He takes the call and says WHO IS THIS?

A voice says NOAH.

Lucas says WHAT'S THE PASSWORD.

Noah says PAPER.

Noah appears in the sky. He has short dark hair.

A caption reads "Noah. Age 8."

Lucas says PERFECT TIMING, NOAH. IT'S LITERACY WEEK AND WE'RE TRYING TO WRITE A STORY BUT I THINK WE HAVE WRITER'S BLOCK.

Lucas says I KNOW WE DO.

Lucas says DO YOU EVER WRITE STORIES, NOAH?

Noah says YEAH I WROTE ONE IN GRADE 1 OR 2.

Lucas says OKAY SO YOU ARE AN EXPERIENCED WRITER. SO TELL US WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOU NEED INSPIRATION?

Noah says WELL, SOMETIMES I JUST LOOK INTO MY IMAGINATION AND I FIND SOMETHING.

Lucas says THE IMAGINATION! WE SHOULD HAVE CHECKED THERE.

Lucas says WE SHOULD HAVE.

Lucas says WE SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT.

Lucas says THAT'S GREAT, USING YOUR IMAGINATION. COOL. WHAT KIND OF STORIES DO YOU LIKE TO WRITE ABOUT?

Noah says I WROTE THIS ONE STORY ABOUT AN ANT, A REALLY LAZY ANT.

Lucas says A REALLY LAZY ANT? THAT SOUNDS INCREDIBLE.

Lucas says THAT'S FUNNY BECAUSE ANTS ARE NOT USUALLY LAZY AND WHAT WAS THE ANT'S NAME?

Noah says THE LAZY ANT.

Lucas says I LOVE IT. OKAY.

Lucas says THAT'S AWESOME. OKAY, NOAH. SPEAKING OF CUTE LITTLE ANTS, WE HAVE SOME CUTE VIDEOS TO SHOW YOU SO LET'S CHECK IT OUT. HERE IS THE CHAMPION.

A voice says Champion!

A short video shows a gray and white cat wearing glasses as it flips through the pages of a fat book.

Lucas says THIS ONE IS FROM YESTERDAY. IT'S A CAT READING A BOOK. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS, NOAH?

Noah says I THINK I'LL GIVE IT A 9 OUT OF 10.

Lucas says NINE OUT OF 10.

Lucas says I KNOW THAT CAT WILL GET A 9 OUT OF TEN ON HIS QUIZ BECAUSE HE IS STUDYING.

Lucas says OKAY, NOAH CHECK IT OUT, HERE IS THE CHALLENGER.

A voice says Challenger!

A short video shows a tiny brown dog wearing a gray hoodie and thick round glasses as it works on a laptop.

Lucas says OKAY.

Lucas says OH!

Lucas says ANOTHER SCHOLARLY ANIMAL. WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Noah says I THINK I'LL GIVE IT A 8 OUT OF 10.

Lucas says A 8 OUT OF 10. DOES THAT MEAN YOU LIKE THE CAT BETTER?

Noah says YEAH, A LITTLE.

Lucas says ALL RIGHT.

Lucas says OKAY!

Lucas says YOU SAID IT YOU MAKE THE RULES, THE CAT MOVES ON TO TOMORROW. OKAY WELL THANKS FOR HANGING OUT WITH US. WE'LL TALK TO YOU SOON, OKAY.

Noah says OKAY. BYE.

Lucas says BYE, NOAH!

Lucas says OKAY THAT WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL.

Lucas says YEAH THAT WAS HELPFUL. WE SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT TO CHECK THE IMAGINATION SECTION.

Lucas says BUT... OKAY, WE HAVE SOMEONE ELSE THAT WILL HELP US OUT HERE TODAY. WE HAVE A REAL-LIFE AUTHOR, IT'S DAVID ROBERTSON. LET'S GIVE HIM A CALL.

Lucas says LET'S DO IT.

Lucas dials on the frog horn phone.

[PHONE DIALING]

Lucas says I HOPE HE PICKS UP. PLEASE PICK UP.

David appears in the sky. He has side-parted dark hair and a full beard.

Lucas says DAVID ROBERTSON, EVERYBODY!

A caption reads "David Robertson. Author."

Lucas says IT WAS FUN BUT NOW IT'S EVEN MORE FUN. WELCOME TO THE TREE FORT. HOW IS YOUR DAY GOING.

David says IT'S GOING BETTER NOW.

Lucas says GOOD.

Lucas says AMAZING.

Lucas says YOU ARE IN THE SKY.

Lucas says TOTALLY! AND YOU ARE CALLING FROM WINNIPEG, RIGHT?

David says THAT'S RIGHT. I'M IN WINNIPEG BUT BEING IN THE CLOUD IS WAY MORE FUN.

Lucas says TOTALLY, BEING UP IN THE SKY RIGHT? WE'RE SO EXCITED. WE HAVE WRITER'S BLOCK TODAY AND WE WANTED TO TALK TO YOU. WE KNOW YOU HAVE A NEW BOOK THAT CAME OUT, THE "THE BARREN GROUNDS." CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THAT?

A picture of the book "The barren grounds" appears on screen briefly. The cover features a drawing of a tall person, a boy, a girl and a humanoid creature walking together.

David says THE "THE BARREN GROUNDS," YA. IT'S LIKE A FANTASY MIDDLE-GRADE PORTAL STORY. IT IS INSPIRED BY NARNIA BUT TAKES NARNIA AND MAKES IT A COMPLETELY INDIGENOUS STORY THAT DRAWS ON INDIGENOUS LEGENDS AND TEACHES IMPORTANT THINGS TO KIDS AND I'M VERY EXCITED ABOUT IT BECAUSE THE KIDS GO ON A REALLY AMAZING, EXCITING ADVENTURE TO SAVE THE WORLD.

Lucas says WOW!

Lucas says TRULY.

Lucas says WE'RE SO EXCITED. TVOKIDS AND TVO PARENTS YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS BOOK IT'S SO COOL. WE'RE SO LUCKY TO HAVE YOU HERE BECAUSE WE HAVE WRITER'S BLOCK. DO YOU EVER GET WRITER'S BLOCK?

David says YEAH, I ALSO GET WRITER'S BLOCK.

Lucas says WHAT DO YOU DO?

David says I EMPATHIZE WITH YOU.

Lucas says WHAT DO YOU DO?

David says WELL THERE ARE A FEW THINGS YOU CAN DO. FIRST OF ALL DON'T GET FRUSTRATED BECAUSE EVEN A PROFESSIONAL WRITER GETS WRITER'S BLOCK. IT HAPPENS TO EVERYBODY. YOU MIGHT JUST NOT FEEL INSPIRED. SO I WOULD GO OUT AND LOOK FOR INSPIRATION. GO FOR A WALK, OBSERVE THE WORLD. WRITERS LIKE TO DO THAT AND WRITE SOMEWHERE ELSE. I WROTE UNDER A STRUCTURE OUTSIDE IN A PLAYGROUND ONCE. READ A BOOK, LISTEN TO GREAT MUSIC OR JUST FORGET WHAT YOU WERE TRYING TO WRITE AND WRITE ANYTHING, SO LONG AS YOU WRITE ANYTHING. THOSE ARE SOME THINGS I TRY TO DO AND I THINK IT WORKS FOR EVERYBODY.

Lucas says I LOVE THAT! CHANGE UP WHERE YOU ARE WRITING, GO FOR A WALK. AMAZING. DAVID WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE THING ABOUT BEING A WRITER?

David says HONESTLY, BESIDES WRITING IT'S DOING THINGS LIKE THIS. I LOVE COMING ON TO SHOWS LIKE THIS, VISITING CLASSROOMS, AND TALKING TO KIDS. IT'S ONE OF THE BEST THINGS AND PRIVILEGES OF BEING A WRITER, I THINK, IS IT'S SO MUCH FUN AND KIDS ARE SO SMART. LIKE NOAH HAD BETTER IDEAS THAN I DO. SO I THINK THAT'S GREAT, YOU KNOW. KIDS ARE SMARTER THAN ME.

Lucas says AND SPEAKING OF KIDS, WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE TO ANY KIDS THAT ARE WRITING?

David says YOU KNOW, I WOULD JUST SAY, LIKE, ALWAYS HAVE FUN WITH IT. ALWAYS YOU KNOW LIKE NOAH SAID, USE YOUR IMAGINATION, USE YOUR PASSION, AND JUST KEEP READING A LOT AND ALWAYS WRITE. ALWAYS WRITE.

Lucas says COOL.

Lucas says YES, WRITE, WRITE, WRITE. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Lucas says I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION. I KNOW YOU HAVE A MOUSTACHE BUT WHAT IF YOU HAD A DOUBLE MOUSTACHE, WOULD YOU LIKE IT?

He holds up a fake mustache on top of the image of David's face.

Lucas says DOUBLE MOUSTACHE.

David says MY WIFE WOULDN'T LIKE IT BUT I WOULD LIKE IT.

Lucas says OKAY WE'LL KEEP IT HERE THEN.

Lucas says DAVID, THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE CAN'T WAIT TO CHECK OUT YOUR BOOK AND TVOKIDS, YOU CAN CHECK IT OUT, TOO.

David says BYE.

Lucas says OF COURSE TVOKIDS WE'RE NOT DONE WITH BOOKS. WE ARE GOING TO TALK TO OUR TVO KID REPORTER ALEX. CHECK IT OUT...

Music plays as a colourful animated slate reads TVOKIDS REPORTER!

TVOKids reporter Alex sits on a couch reading a book titled "Why?"

He says DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU GET DIZZY WHEN YOU SING BUT SOME DON'T. NICHOLAS COPERNICUS SAID THE EARTH RESOLVES AROUND THE SUN. TVOKIDS WE'RE HERE TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT MY BOOK, MY "WHY" BOOK A PRESENT FROM MY AUNT AND UNCLE. I LOVE LEARNING NEW FACTS AND THIS BOOK IS PERFECT FOR THAT! I LOVE READING THIS BOOK WHILE HAVING QUIET TIME. I ALSO LIKE SHARING FACTS THAT I'M LEARNING WITH MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY, LIKE THESE. WHY DO LEOPARDS, JAGUARS AND CHEETAHS HAVE SPOTS? THE SAME REASONS TIGERS HAVE STRIPES. TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR THEM TO CAMOUFLAGE WHILE HUNTING. SAILBOAT SAILS ACT LIKE WINGS CREATING LIFT WHICH MOVES THE SAIL FORWARD. THAT'S HOW YOU CAN SAIL AGAINST THE WIND. BUZZ ALDRIN WAS THE FIRST PERSON TO TAKE A SELFIE IN SPACE IN 1966. THANKS TVOKIDS FOR LETTING ME SHARE WITH YOU MY FAVOURITE BOOK. SEE YOU NEXT TIME!

The clip ends.

Back in the tree fort, dramatic music plays as a slate reads "Brain Storm Watch."

Greg plays Landon Fog, the mustached weather reporter.

Landon says HELLO, I'M LANDON FOG AND WE INTERRUPT THIS REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMMING TO BRING YOU SOME VERY BREAKING NEWS. THAT'S RIGHT. THERE IS A BRAINSTORM ON THE HORIZON HERE. TODAY, THAT'S RIGHT A SERIOUS BRAINSTORM IS HEADING YOUR WAY. SO THE EXPERTS ARE SAYING CLOSE YOUR DOORS, CLOSE YOUR DOGGY DOORS, LOCK THOSE WINDOWS, WE HAVE A FLOOD OF IDEAS AND HIGH PRESSURE FLURRIES OF INSPIRATION COMING TO THE FOREST. I REPEAT, A HIGH-PRESSURE FLURRIES OF INSPIRATION COMING TO THE FOREST. WE HAVE BRUSCHETTA JONES LIVE ON THE SCENE. LET'S CHECK IN WITH BRUSCHETTA.

Bruschetta Jones, played by Laura, stands in the middle of a storm and says HELLO, I'M BRUSCHETTA JONES REPORTING TO YOU LIVE FROM WHAT APPEARS TO BE THE EYE OF A MASSIVE BRAINSTORM HEADING TOWARDS THE FOREST NOW! THAT'S RIGHT, LANDON, SCIENTISTS ARE CALLING THIS BRAINSTORM AN ANOMALY WHICH MEANS THEY HAVE SIMPLY NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT! THAT'S RIGHT, EXCEPTIONALLY HIGH WINDS ARE BRINGING A LOT OF IDEAS, EVERYTHING FROM BANANA PUDDING TO TENNIS SHOES TO AS YOU CAN SEE, SAFARI ELEPHANTS. THIS BRAIN STORM HAS IT ALL! BUT... SORRY, OVER HERE. THIS JUST IN, TAKE COVER! IT APPEARS THE LOCAL WATER DAM OF WRITER'S BLOCK IS ABOUT TO COLLAPSE AND A FLOOD OF IDEAS ARE COMING. GET TO HIGH GROUND. I REPEAT, TAKE HIGH GROUND IMMEDIATELY. THE IDEAS!

The image becomes distorted, then lost.

Landon says SEEMS LIKE I'M LOSING YOU, BRUSCHETTA. AS I MENTIONED, IT IS QUITE A NASTY STORM. GOOD LUCK BRUSCHETTA. I'M LANDON FOG. WE'LL CATCH YOU NEXT TIME.

An animated slate shows a sun rising as a voice says I CAN.

A girl with straight brown hair says HI, MY NAME IS KATRINA. I'M 10 YEARS OLD.

An announcer says WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO?

As fast clips show her playing the piano, playing with a remote control car, playing foosball, and reading in bed, Katrina says I LIKE PLAYING PIANO. I LIKE MY REMOTE CONTROL CAR. HERE IS MY FOOSBALL TABLE. I LIKE TO PLAY FOOSBALL. I LIKE TO READ IN BED.

The announcer says WAS IT HARD TO LEARN HOW TO READ?

Katrina says LEARNING HOW TO READ WAS HARD. I FELT CONFUSED AND MAD. THIS IS STILL HARD. THE HARDEST PART WAS I HAD TO PRACTICE EVERY DAY AND FOUND OUT THE LONG WORDS.

As she reads, she says PRETENDING.

The announcer says SO WHAT DID YOU DO?

Katrina says I BROKE UP THE WORDS AND PUT THEM BACK TOGETHER. I PRACTICE EVERY DAY. I STARTED READING MORE AND MY PARENTS REALLY HELPED ME.

As she practices, she says ACCIDENTALLY.

A woman with curly brown hair says PERFECT. GOOD JOB.

The announcer says HOW DID LEARNING TO READ MAKE YOU FEEL?

Katrina says WHEN I LEARNED HOW TO READ IT MADE ME FEEL HAPPY. I LOVE TO READ BECAUSE IT MAKES ME FEEL RELAXED. THIS IS A GOOD ONE. I CAN AND YOU CAN, TOO.

The clip ends.

Inside the tree fort, Laura and Lucas look around.

Laura says WOW! THAT WAS A WILD BRAINSTORM BUT IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S CLEARED UP NOW.

Lucas says FOR SURE. DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER IDEAS.

Lucas says WE SHOULD CHECK AND SEE IF ANYTHING SHOWED UP.

As he puts on his helmet, Lucas says OKAY, COOL. I LOVE THIS. HERE'S HOPING, LAURA!

He appears in the blank space, but now there are different objects on the floor like a crown, a chicken plushie and binoculars.

He says OKAY, I MADE IT BACK. AND THERE ARE A FEW IDEAS. THAT BRAINSTORM MUST HAVE BLEW SOME IDEAS INTO YOUR BRAIN LAURA.

Lucas says REALLY? THAT'S AWESOME!

Lucas says I KNOW!

Lucas says COOL. GRAB ONE AND COME BACK.

Lucas reappears inside the tree fort holding a crown.

Lucas says OKAY WHAT DID YOU GRAB?

Lucas says I GOT IT. IT'S A CROWN.

Lucas says THE BRAINSTORM BROUGHT AN IDEA.

Lucas says YOU'RE RIGHT.

Lucas says IT'S THE CEREAL KINGDOM.

Lucas says YOU'RE RIGHT. A ROYAL ALIEN.

Lucas says THIS IS AMAZING. TVOKIDS. ALSO GO TO TVOKIDS.COM AND CHECK IT OUT 16 HUDSON HAS A NEW FAMILY IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD AND WE WANT YOU TO SEND IN YOUR FAMILY PHOTO.

A screenshot from the TVOKids website pops up. Next to a drawing of a collage of family pictures, it reads "Show us your family! Hashtag MyFamilyJourney. There's a new family moving to 16 Hudson and they have travelled all the way from Kurdistan! Do you know your family's journey? Share your story and a family photo and we'll feature it in our online gallery. You can upload the picture here or send it to tvokids@tvo.org.
