A female announcer says,
WELCOME TO TVOKIDS
POWER HOUR OF LEARNING.
TODAY’S PRIMARY LESSON.
SHADOWS, SCIENCE AND SYMMETRY.
Text reads “TVO Power Hour of Learning. Teacher Edition. Today’s Primary Lesson: Shadows, Science, and Symmetry!”
[Upbeat music plays]
A man with brown hair and eyes sits by a bookcase.
Teacher Joel says, HELLO, TVOKIDS, AND WELCOME
BACK TO ANOTHER EPISODE
OF POWER HOUR OF LEARNING.
Text reads “Primary one to three. Teacher Joel.”
MY NAME IS TEACHER JOEL, AND I'M
SO EXCITED TO BE HERE WITH YOU,
HANGING OUT FOR THE NEXT HOUR
FOR SOME LEARNING AND FUN.
DURING OUR TIME TOGETHER
AT HOME,
WE'RE GONNA BE CHECKING OUT
SOME AMAZING TVO SHOWS,
AND I'M GONNA BE
POPPING UP IN BETWEEN
TO TEACH YOU SOME LESSONS
THAT CONNECT DIRECTLY
TO WHAT YOU'RE SEEING
AND I'M GONNA GIVE YOU
SOME IDEAS
YOU CAN DO LATER IN THE DAY,
LATER IN THE WEEK,
TO KEEP YOUR LEARNING GOING.
IT'S GONNA BE A LOT OF FUN
AND I HOPE YOU'RE READY TO GO.
FOR TODAY'S LEARNING
YOU ARE GONNA NEED SOME PAPER.
MAYBE A NOTEBOOK,
SOMETHING YOU CAN WRITE ON,
AND OF COURSE,
SOMETHING YOU CAN WRITE WITH.
A PENCIL, A PEN, WE WILL BE
USING SOME MARKERS LATER,
AND FOR SOME SPECIAL ART
COMING UP,
YOU WILL NEED
A PAIR OF SCISSORS
THAT YOU CAN USE
SAFELY AT HOME.
SO, MAKE SURE YOU'VE GOT
YOUR FAMILY'S PERMISSION
TO SAFELY GRAB
THAT PAIR OF SCISSORS
THAT YOU CAN USE
FOR YOUR LEARNING.
GET YOURSELF IN A NICE,
COMFORTABLE SPACE
WHERE YOU CAN SEE ME
ON THE SCREEN,
HEAR MY VOICE
LOUD AND CLEAR,
AND WHEN YOU'RE READY,
LOOKING AND LISTENING,
WE CAN START THE LEARNING!
An animated sun shines.
Joel stands in a shadowy room beside a white wall.
He says, ALL RIGHT.
WE'RE READY
FOR OUR LEARNING,
AND YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED
I'VE MOVED
TO A DIFFERENT SPOT
OF MY HOME
FOR THIS FIRST PART
OF OUR LEARNING.
AND YOU MIGHT ALSO
BE THINKING,
"TEACHER JOEL,
IT'S A LITTLE DARK."
AND YOU'RE RIGHT.
I'M GONNA TURN ON
THIS LAMP BESIDE ME
AND I WANT YOU TO TAKE A LOOK
AT WHAT YOU NOTICE.
Joel turns on the lamp. It casts his shadow on the wall behind him.
THIS THING BEHIND ME
IS GIVING YOU A BIG CLUE
FOR WHAT WE ARE LEARNING
ABOUT TODAY.
WE'RE LEARNING ABOUT LIGHT,
AND...SHADOWS!
Joel and his shadow wave.
Joel says, THERE'S MY SHADOW SAYING HI.
I DON'T KNOW
IF YOU'VE EVER PLAYED
WITH LIGHT AND SHADOWS
BEFORE,
BUT IT CAN BE A LOT OF FUN,
AND IT REALLY HELPS US LEARN
ABOUT SOME SUPER BIG
SCIENCE IDEAS.
NOW, MY SHADOW WAVED HI TO YOU,
BUT I WANT TO SHOW YOU
HOW I CAN USE MY HANDS
TO MAKE SOME OTHER SHADOW SHAPES
ON THE WALL.
WITH TWO FINGERS,
I CAN WIGGLE
THOSE BUNNY EARS
AND MAKE
A SHADOW PUPPET BUNNY!
PRETTY COOL.
WITH TWO HANDS,
I CAN LINK MY THUMBS
TOGETHER LIKE WINGS
AND THERE YOU HAVE--
[Gasp]
He continues, --A FLUTTERING BIRD
SHADOW PUPPET.
AND HERE IS
MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE.
I PUT MY THUMB
AND THIS FIGURE TOGETHER,
LIKE A MOUTH.
I USE MY MIDDLE FINGER
BENT LIKE THAT
TO MAKE AN EYE,
AND MY LAST TWO FINGERS
GO UP LIKE EARS.
THERE'S LITTLE DOG!
AND IT CAN EVEN OPEN ITS MOUTH
AND BARK, BARK, BARK.
NOW, I TOLD YOU THAT PLAYING
WITH LIGHT AND SHADOWS
IS SUPER-DUPER FUN
AND IT'S A GREAT PART
OF OUR SCIENCE LEARNING.
SO, MAYBE LATER TODAY,
LIKE I'M DOING NOW,
YOU'LL USE A LAMP
IN YOUR HOUSE,
A FLASHLIGHT,
OR EVEN A NICE WINDOW
WHERE YOU GET LOTS OF SUNLIGHT
COMING IN
TO MAKE YOUR OWN
SHADOW PUPPET PLAY.
BUT FOR NOW, LET'S CHECK OUT
THIS EPISODE OF
BAMBOO LOVE
THAT'S GONNA TEACH US MORE
ABOUT LIGHT AND SHADOWS!
AND I'LL SEE YOU AFTER.
The animated sun shines in a blue sky.
An animated panda bear sits on text reading “Bamboo Love.”
[Gentle music plays]
A child narrator says,
HI, BAMBOO LOVE.
WHAT WOULD YOU LOVE
TO LEARN ABOUT TODAY?
SHADOWS.
Text reads “Shadows.”
A sand castle has been built close to a large pile of sand.
The narrator says, WHAT A GREAT-LOOKING
SAND CASTLE.
DID YOU MAKE IT?
[Shifting sand]
The narrator says, BAMBOO LOVE,
WHERE ARE YOU?
Bamboo Love’s head pokes out of the sand pile.
[Giggling]
The narrator says, OH, THERE YOU ARE!
YOU'RE SO FUNNY.
[Giggling]
Bamboo Love rolls head over heels across the sand. She holds up four orange and white conch shells.
The narrator says, THOSE ARE PRETTY SHELLS.
WHERE WILL THEY GO?
Bamboo Love puts a shell on top of four of the towers of the sand castle.
The narrator says, ONE, TWO, THREE, AND FOUR.
THAT LOOKS GOOD!
[Huh]
The narrator says, OH, I SEE.
YOU NEED ONE MORE SHELL
FOR THE BIG TOWER.
NO MORE SHELLS HERE?
Panda Love shakes her head, NN-MM.
The narrator asks, ARE YOU GOING TO LOOK
FOR SHELLS SOMEWHERE ELSE?
Bamboo Love nods, MM-HM.
[Footsteps crunching in sand]
Bamboo Love walks in the sand. Her shadow falls on the ground in front of her.
The narrator says, THAT'S YOUR SHADOW YOU SEE
IN FRONT OF YOU.
IT'S THERE BECAUSE
THE SUN IS SHINING ON YOU.
YOU ARE BLOCKING
THE SUN'S RAYS,
AND THAT MAKES
A DARK SHAPE
AND THAT'S CALLED
YOUR SHADOW.
Bamboo Love stands and dances.
[Giggling]
The narrator says, I'VE FORGOTTEN
WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR.
Bamboo Love points towards the sand castle.
[Chuckling]
The narrator says, OF COURSE!
YOU ARE LOOKING
FOR A SHELL.
[Giggling]
Bamboo laughs as she runs on the sand towards a beach umbrella. She pokes her head into the sand.
[Shifting sand]
Bamboo Love holds up an orange and white conch shell.
Bamboo Love says, OOH.
[Musical Tah dah]
The narrator says, HOORAY!
YOU FOUND A SHELL!
Bamboo Love laughs and front rolls across the sand. It gets dark around her. Bamboo Love looks confused as she holds two paws.
She says, HMM?
The narrator says, YES, I SEE.
YOUR SHADOW IS GONE.
A grey cloud moves in front of the sun.
The narrator says, THAT BIG CLOUD IS BLOCKING
THE LIGHT FROM THE SUN,
SO IT CAN'T MAKE
YOUR SHADOW.
[Grumble]
[Footsteps crunching sand]
Bamboo Love holds her chin as she walks. A drop of water hits her nose.
[Ding]
Bamboo Love says, AH!
The narrator says, AND NOW IT'S STARTING
TO RAIN.
[Falling rain]
Bamboo Love rolls over a puddle.
[Giggling]
The narrator says, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE HAVING FUN
SPLASHING IN THOSE PUDDLES.
[Splash]
Bamboo Love jumps in a puddle.
Bamboo Love looks towards the sand castle and says, HMM?
She runs to the castle and puts the shell on the tower. It sinks into the tower.
The narrator asks, IS THERE SOMETHING BIGGER
THAT MIGHT BLOCK THE RAIN?
Bamboo Love looks around, then gets excited.
Bamboo Love exclaims, OOH!
Bamboo puts the beach umbrella over the castle.
The narrator says, THE UMBRELLA!
IT IS BLOCKING THE RAIN.
GOOD JOB.
Bamboo Love exclaims, OOH!
Wind blows the umbrella out of Bamboo Love’s hands.
The narrator says, OH, NO!
WHAT A STRONG WIND!
WHAT WILL YOU DO NOW?
Bamboo Love says, HMM!
Bamboo Love digs around the base of the castle. Water drains away from the castle.
The narrator says, OH, GOOD DIGGING.
A duck lands on one of the turrets of the castle.
The narrator says, AND HERE COMES DUCK
TO PLAY WITH YOU.
Duck quacks.
[Quack]
The narrator says, WELL, EVEN THOUGH
THE SUN IS GONE
AND IT'S RAINING,
YOU'RE STILL HAVING
A GOOD PLAY TIME.
Bamboo Love nods and says, MM-HM.
The narrator says, WHAT A CLEVER
BAMBOO LOVE.
Bamboo Love and the duck jump in puddles.
The narrator says, TODAY, BAMBOO LOVE
LEARNED ABOUT SHADOWS.
SHE LEARNED THAT SHADOWS
ARE MADE BY LIGHT FROM THE SUN.
CREATING SHADOWS
AND WEATHER CAN BE FUN,
RAIN OR SHINE.
Logos appear for “TVO Kids,” “Radio Canada” and Knowledge:Kids.”
The animated sun shines.
Teacher Joel sits in front by his bookcase.
Text reads “Primary one to three. Teacher Joel.”
[Upbeat music plays]
NOW, THE REASON
I WANT TO START
WITH "WHAT DO WE WONDER
ABOUT LIGHTS AND SHADOWS?"
IS BECAUSE I AM
A BIG BELIEVER
THAT ASKING QUESTIONS
IS THE VERY BEST WAY TO LEARN.
AND TODAY WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT SCIENCE.
BUT ASKING QUESTIONS
FOR OUR LEARNING
IS SO IMPORTANT
IN ALL SORTS OF THINGS.
MATH, LANGUAGE, ART.
ALL SORTS OF LEARNING
COMES FROM ASKING QUESTIONS.
Joel holds up a piece of paper. Inside a bubble, text reads “ Who? What? Where? When? Why? How? Can? Do? Is? Might? Could?”
He says, SO, I'VE GOT SOME
QUESTION WORDS HERE.
I WANT YOU
TO LOOK CLOSELY AT THEM
AS WE START TO THINK
ABOUT WHAT WE WONDER
ABOUT LIGHTS AND SHADOWS.
YOU'LL SEE SOME WORDS HERE
THAT MAYBE YOU'VE SEEN BEFORE.
UP TOP WE'VE GOT
"WHO? WHAT? WHERE?
"WHEN? WHY?" AND "HOW?"
FOR REASONS YOU'VE
PROBABLY FIGURED OUT,
WE CALL THOSE
THE FIVE W'S.
AND OF COURSE
THERE'S ONE H.
NOW, THOSE ARE GREAT
STARTING WORDS
WHEN WE COME UP WITH
OUR QUESTIONS AND WONDERS.
SO, WE'RE THINKING
ABOUT SHADOWS.
WHERE DO SHADOWS
COME FROM?
WHY DOES MY SHADOW
MOVE THROUGHOUT THE DAY?
THESE ARE GREAT WONDERS.
AND IF YOU'RE THINKING
OF SOME OF THOSE SAME ONES,
YOU CAN START
TO JOT THEM DOWN NOW,
UNDER THE "WONDER" SECTION
OF YOUR KWL CHART.
BUT I WANT TO SHOW YOU SOME OF
THESE WORDS DOWN AT THE BOTTOM,
BECAUSE WHEN WE'RE
COMING UP WITH WONDERS,
WE WANNA COME UP
WITH THE DEEPEST,
JUICIEST QUESTIONS
WE CAN,
AND THAT'S WHERE THESE WORDS
COME IN HANDY.
"CAN?", "DO?",
"IS?" OR "ARE?"
"MIGHT?" AND "COULD?".
SO, THESE QUESTIONS
GO A LITTLE FURTHER
IN OUR SCIENTIFIC THINKING.
"COULD SHADOWS--"
DA-DA-DA-DA.
"DO SHADOWS--"
DA-DA-DA-DA-DA.
NOW, I'M NOT WONDERING
"DA-DA-DA-DA-DA".
I WANT YOU TO COME UP
WITH YOUR OWN WONDERS.
AND TO FURTHER INSPIRE YOU
TO DO THAT,
I WANT YOU TO TAKE A LOOK
AT WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN WE MATCH
SOME OF THESE TOP WORDS
UP WITH SOME
OF THE BOTTOM WORDS.
BECAUSE I TOLD YOU WE'RE GONNA
COME UP WITH THE DEEPEST,
JUICIEST QUESTIONS.
AND WE CAN PAIR
THESE WORDS TOGETHER
TO TAKE OUR WONDERS
EVEN FURTHER.
WHY MIGHT?
WHEN IS?
WHAT COULD?
JOT A FEW OF THESE
QUESTION WORDS DOWN
TO INSPIRE
YOUR SHADOW WONDERS.
AND TOGETHER,
LET'S CHECK OUT
THIS EPISODE
OF WACKY WORD SONGS
TO HELP US THINK
A LITTLE MORE
ABOUT THESE SUPER-DUPER
IMPORTANT QUESTION WORDS.
AND I'LL SEE YOU AFTER.
The animated yellow sun rises in a blue sky.
Letters spelling “Wacky” bounce. A blue curtain closes and “Wacky Word Songs” appears on the curtain.
TVO Kids Presents.
[Energetic music and singing]
Zoey sings, IT'S THE WACKY
WACKY WORD SONGS
OH, YEAH!
Text reads “With Zoey.”
Zoey walks in an attic. She has long brown hair and brown eyes. Zoey wears a blue jean jacket, yellow shirt, and black pants.
Zoey says, OH. UH, HI.
YOU'RE HERE. HOW COME?
IS IT TIME FOR MY SHOW?
Questions marks appear and disappear.
[Slide whistle, pop, slide whistle, pop]
[Clears throat]
Zoey sings, MI MI MI MI
MI MI MI MI MI
She asks, DO I HAVE ANYTHING
STUCK IN MY TEETH?
A question mark appears and disappears.
[Slide whistle, pop]
Zoey looks in a mirror.
She asks, NO?
A question mark appears and disappears.
[Slide whistle, pop]
Zoey says, ALL THOSE THINGS I JUST ASKED
ARE QUESTIONS,
AND WHEN YOU
WRITE A QUESTION,
YOU ALWAYS END IT
WITH A QUESTION MARK.
[Slide whistle]
Text reads “Question Mark.” A question mark appears beside Zoey.
Zoey asks, CHECK THIS OUT?
Zoey holds a large yellow question mark in front of her as she stands on a stage.
[Show tune music plays]
Zoey sings, I'M A VERY CURIOUS
QUESTION MARK
I ASK WHO? WHAT? WHY? WHERE?
A line of Zoeys sings, WHO? WHAT? WHY? WHERE?
A picture of a bowl filled with apple sauce appears beside Zoey.
Zoey sings, WHO ATE ALL
OF THE APPLE SAUCE?
WHAT HAPPENED TO MY HAIR?
WHY DO PARROTS
LIKE TO STARE?
SHOULD MY CAT
WEAR UNDERWEAR?
The line of Zoeys sings, SHOULD MY CAT WEAR
UNDERWEAR?
Zoey sings, I MAY DOUBT
IN QUESTION MARK
AND SOMETIMES
SHOW SURPRISE
IF I STAND HERE
FOR A JIFFY
Zoey sings, MY APPLESAUCE
WAS EATEN BY BEARS?
A bear walks on a screen behind Zoey.
The line of Zoeys sings, MY APPLESAUCE
WAS EATEN BY BEARS
Zoey sings, I'M A USEFUL
QUESTION MARK
YOU NEED ME
WHEN YOU ASK
WHEN YOU'RE SKEPTICAL
OR JUST SURPRISED
I MANAGE ALL THOSE TASKS
I MANAGE ALL THOSE TASKS
Zoey stands in the attic.
She asks, IS THIS THE END?
DID YOU LIKE THE SONG?
A question mark appears and disappears.
[Slide whistle, pop]
Zoey says, SO MANY QUESTIONS,
SO MANY WAYS
TO USE A QUESTION MARK.
WELL, SEE YOU NEXT TIME.
OR SHOULD I SAY,
SEE YOU NEXT TIME?
A question mark appears and disappears.
[Slide whistle, pop]
The TVO Kids logo appears.
[Giggling]
[Creak]
The logo for Apartment Eleven Productions appears.
The animated sun shines.
Teacher Joel sits by his bookcase.
Text reads “Primary one to three. Teacher Joel.”
[Upbeat music plays]
Joel says, WELCOME BACK,
SHADOW SCIENTISTS.
I HOPE THAT EPISODE GAVE YOU
SOME MORE IDEAS
FOR YOUR QUESTION.
REMEMBER, I TOLD YOU A HUGE PART
OF SCIENCE LEARNING
IS STARTING WITH
WHAT WE KNOW
BUT IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO COME UP
WITH SOME QUESTIONS.
WHAT DO WE WANT
TO DISCOVER?
AND NEXT IN OUR SCIENCE LEARNING
COMES THE FUN PART.
WE GET TO EXPLORE.
AND WHEN SCIENTISTS
ARE EXPLORING,
THEY MAKE
CAREFUL OBSERVATIONS.
THEY TALK ABOUT
THINGS THEY SEE,
THEY TALK ABOUT
THINGS THEY NOTICE.
AND THOSE OBSERVATIONS
HELP TO GIVE THEM
NEW INFORMATION.
AS SCIENTISTS, WE CAN
GET NEW OBSERVATIONS
AND NEW INFORMATION
FROM BOOKS, FROM VIDEOS,
FROM RESEARCH
ON THE INTERNET,
OR MY PERSONAL FAVOURITE
AS A KINDERGARTEN TEACHER,
HANDS-ON EXPLORATION.
AND LATER TODAY
I'M GONNA CHALLENGE YOU
TO DO SOME HANDS-ON
EXPLORATION AT HOME
ALL ABOUT
LIGHT AND SHADOWS.
AND YOU'RE GONNA USE
WHAT YOU OBSERVE
THROUGH THAT
HANDS-ON OBSERVATION
AND HANDS-ON EXPLORATION
TO FILL IN THE L
OF YOUR CHART.
Joel holds up a piece of paper with three empty columns. The column headings read “Know?”, “Wonder?” and “Learn.”
Joel asks, WHAT DID YOU LEARN
ABOUT LIGHT AND SHADOWS
THROUGH YOUR
EXPERIMENTATION?
NOW, AT THE START
OF THE EPISODE,
I SHOWED YOU HOW I WAS USING
A LAMP IN MY HOUSE
TO EXPLORE
LIGHT AND SHADOWS.
YOU MIGHT HAVE ANOTHER TOOL
AT HOME
THAT'S GREAT
FOR LIGHT AND SHADOWS.
YOU HOLD IT IN YOUR HAND,
PRESS A LITTLE BUTTON.
I'M TALKING
ABOUT A FLASHLIGHT.
IF YOU'VE GOT
A FLASHLIGHT,
YOU'LL DEFINITELY WANNA
GRAB THAT LATER
TO EXPLORE
LIGHT AND SHADOWS.
NOW, IF YOU DON'T HAVE ONE,
DON'T WORRY,
BECAUSE IN THIS WORLD WE HAVE A
VERY, VERY, VERY BRIGHT LIGHT,
A SUPER-CHARGED
BRIGHT FLASHLIGHT
THAT HELPS US LEARN
ABOUT SHADOWS.
IT'S NOT IN OUR HOUSES,
IT'S OUTSIDE.
I'M TALKING ABOUT THE SUN!
LATER TODAY I CHALLENGE YOU
TO HEAD OUTSIDE,
BRING YOUR SCIENCE NOTEBOOK,
BRING A PENCIL,
BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA BE
JOTTING DOWN
SOME AMAZING
OBSERVATION NOTES
WHEN YOU EXPLORE THE SCIENCE
OF LIGHT AND SHADOWS
OUTSIDE WITH THE SUN.
I KNOW YOU'RE GONNA COME UP
WITH SOME AMAZING THINGS.
BUT BEFORE WE HEAD OUTSIDE,
YOU'RE GONNA WANNA
STAY WHERE YOU ARE
BECAUSE WE'VE GOT AN AMAZING
EPISODE OF ODD SQUAD
ALL ABOUT SHADOWS
AND SOME MATH.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT WE
LEARN AND I'LL SEE YOU AFTER.
The animated sun appears.
[Whee!]
A “TVO Kids” logo appears beside a “Sinking Ship Entertainment” logo.
Text reads “Original.”
[Giggling]
[Dramatic music plays]
Agent Opal stand with her arms crossed over her navy blue Odd Squad uniform jacket. She wears a white dress shirt and red tie under the jacket. Opal’s long, black hair falls down her back.
Opal says,
MY NAME IS AGENT OPAL.
[Creak]
Omar, Orla and Oswald stand together.
Omar has short black hair.
Orla wears her black hair in two long braids.
Oswald has red hair.
All three wear the Odd Squad uniform.
Opal says, THESE ARE MY PARTNERS
OMAR, ORLA, AND OSWALD.
[Creak]
Oswald, Orla, Omar and Opal smile as they wear black moustaches.
Opal says, THIS IS US WEARING MOUSTACHES.
[Creak]
Rockets engines blast as the Odd Squad Mobile Unit van flies across a cloudy sky.
Opal says, WE TRAVEL THE WORLD
INVESTIGATING ANYTHING STRANGE,
WEIRD, AND ESPECIALLY ODD.
[Creak, creak, creak]
A dolphin-shaped waiter in a tuxedo watches as a smiling man looks at a menu.
Opal says, OUR JOB IS TO PUT THINGS
RIGHT AGAIN.
The van accelerates.
All the agents yell, WHOA!
[Whoosh]
[Exciting music plays]
Oswald dances.
[Yelling]
Balloons float around Opal. Omar pops them. Orla flips to avoid a laser.
[Pop, pop, pop]
The agents hold up shields and yell, SHIELDS UP!
Agents ski down a snowy hill.
[Skis cutting through snow]
Opal asks,WHO DO WE WORK FOR?
WE WORK FOR ODD SQUAD.
“Odd Squad. Created by Tim McKeon and Adam Peltzman.”
The words “Odd Squad in the Shadows” are stamped on a file folder.
A girls says, ODD SQUAD IN THE SHADOWS.
The mobile unit van flies through the sky.
A computer announces,
AGENTS, YOU HAVE AN INCOMING
CALL FROM THE BIG O.
Opal, Omar, Orla and Oswald walk to a screen.
The Big O says, THERE YOU FOUR ARE.
She fires crackling beams at alien creatures.
[Zap, creatures chittering]
Opal asks, BIG O,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Big O says, I'M ON VACATION IN
THE GREAT PLAINS OF ODD.
[Chitter, zap]
Oswald says, BUT THAT'S ONE OF THE ODDEST
PLACES IN THE WORLD.
Big O says, EXACTLY.
THOUGHT I'D TAKE IT EASY.
[Zap, chittering]
Orla says, I UNDERSTAND COMPLETELY.
Big O says, ON TO BUSINESS.
SOMETHING VERY ODD HAS HAPPENED
IN PINEHURST, NORTH CAROLINA.
[Beep, beep]
Big O clicks a device and a digital map appears. An orange dot indicates Pinehurst.
Big O says, THE BIRTHPLACE
OF MINIATURE GOLF.
THE MS. O IN PINEHURST WILL BE
ABLE TO TELL YOU MORE
AT THEIR LOCAL HEADQUARTERS.
Omar says, WE'RE ON IT, BIG O!
Big O says, GREAT.
NOW I'LL GET BACK TO RELAXING.
[Chittering]
Oswald says, OKAY.
[Boom, whoosh]
A girl with long blonde hair wears a beret with a three wobbling on the top. She putts a golf ball into a hole on a mini green.
The girl says, THERE YOU FOUR ARE!
The agents mutter, WOW!
IMPRESSIVE!
AMAZING!
COOL!
The girl says, WELCOME TO PINEHURST.
AS YOU MIGHT'VE NOTICED,
WE'RE A BIG GOLF TOWN.
AND TODAY
IS A BIG GOLF DAY.
OUR THIRD ANNUAL ODD SQUAD
MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT.
The girl points to the wobbling three over her beret.
Opal says, I'M STILL NOT SURE
WHY WE'RE HERE.
The girl says, EVERY YEAR,
SOMETHING GOES WRONG
BECAUSE ALL THE AGENTS
ARE PLAYING GOLF
AND NOBODY'S
STOPPING ODDNESS.
HERE'S A PICTURE FROM OUR
SECOND ANNUAL TOURNAMENT.
She points a remote at a screen.
[Click]
A picture shows dragons fly over a mini golf course. One breathes fire at Odd Squad agents.
Omar says, OH!
[Gasping]
The girl says, AND OUR FIRST
ANNUAL TOURNAMENT.
[Click]
A picture shows a line of Odd Squad Agents holding putters.
Orla asks, WHAT WAS
THE PROBLEM THERE?
The girl says, INVISIBLE CREATURES.
THAT WAS BEFORE
WE REALIZED IT.
The girl clicks and a picture shows the same agents screaming.
She says, THAT'S AFTER.
The mobile unit agents nod and say, THAT MAKES SENSE.
I SEE.
The girl says, ANYWAY, WE NEED YOU
TO FOCUS ON ODDNESS
WHILE WE FOCUS ON GOLF.
AND THERE'S ALREADY
A VILLAIN
MAKING THINGS DISAPPEAR
AROUND TOWN TODAY!
HERE'S THE EVIDENCE
WE'VE COLLECTED SO FAR.
The girl holds a red file folder.
She asks, WHO'S IN CHARGE?
Opal says, ACTUALLY, WE'VE NEVER
TALKED ABOUT THAT,
BUT I SUPPOSE
IF WE WERE TO CHOOSE,
I WOULD SAY--
Opal, Omar, Orla and Oswald say,
--I AM.
The girl asks, WELL, WHICH ONE IS IT?
Orla says, WELL, IN THE OLD
ODD SQUAD DAYS,
WE HAD A WAY
TO SETTLE ARGUMENTS
ABOUT WHO WAS
IN CHARGE.
[Ding]
Orla holds a wooden box.
She declares, WHOEVER CATCHES THE MOST
SCORPIONS IS THE LEADER.
Omar, Opal and Oswald shout,
NO! NO! NO!
Opal says, ORLA, FINE!
YOU CAN BE THE LEADER!
The girl gives Orla the file folder.
Omar says, WELL, IN THAT CASE,
I GUESS I'LL JUST
STEP AWAY
TO FIND A NORTH
CAROLINA SOUVENIR.
Omar turns and walks out of the office.
Orla says, AND WE SHALL FIND
THIS VILLAIN
MAKING THINGS DISAPPEAR,
MS. O.
The blonde-haired Ms. O says, PLEASE, CALL ME
NORTH CAROLINA MS. O.
[Horn honks]
North Carolina Ms. O says, THAT'S MY RIDE.
A young man sits at the steering wheel of a white electric golf cart.
Oswald says, NICE.
North Carolina Ms. O says, BYE
North Carolina Ms. O sits down beside the driver and waves.
Orla looks at the file. She bangs her fist on a pile of books.
Orla says, SOLVED IT!
Oswald ask, HOW?!
Opal asks, EXCUSE ME?
Orla says, THE VILLAIN HAS ALREADY
MADE THREE THINGS DISAPPEAR.
A STREET SIGN,
A PAINTING, AND A HOUSE.
AND LIKE ALL VILLAINS,
THIS ONE MUST BE
WORKING IN A PATTERN.
SOMETHING THAT REPEATS.
AND THIS VILLAIN IS WORKING
IN A VERY SIMPLE PATTERN.
ALL THESE THINGS
ARE RED.
IT IS A COLOUR PATTERN.
SHALL WE RELEASE
THE CELEBRATION SCORPIONS?
Opal says, NO!
Oswald, YEAH, LET'S SKIP
THAT STEP.
Orla says, FINE, THEN.
An agent with short black hair wears a white lab coat and a green bowtie.
Orla shouts, YOU THERE!
IN THE WHITE COAT.
ARE THERE ANY VILLAINS
THAT LIKE RED IN THIS TOWN?
The agent with the green bow tie says, YES. PINEHURST HAS
A VILLAIN NAMED RED FRED.
Orla commands, THEN, AS YOUR LEADER,
I ORDER YOU
TO TAKE US TO HIM!
The agent wearing the bow tie says, UH-- I DON'T HAVE A CAR.
Opal says, WE HAVE A VAN.
WE'LL TAKE IT
FROM HERE.
The agent walks away from Orla.
Oswald says, WAIT.
SHOULD WE GO GET OMAR?
[Tense music plays]
Opal says, HE IS LOOKING
FOR HIS SOUVENIR.
YOU WANNA BE THE ONE
TO TELL HIM HE HAS TO GO?
Oswald says, YEAH, I'M SURE
HE'LL BE FINE.
Opal says, GOOD CHOICE.
[Dramatic music plays]
Omar walks past doors.
He says, DEVILED EGG ROOM, NOPE.
GOLF ROOM?
NN-MM-MM.
AN OFFICE SUPPLY ROOM!
THERE'S GOTTA BE
A PENCIL IN HERE
WITH "NORTH CAROLINA"
WRITTEN ALL OVER IT.
Omar opens a door covered with file holders and sticky notes.
[Creak]
He says, HELLO?
Omar peers into the dark room. He turns on a light.
[Flick]
Two agents look surprised.
A tall boy with short curly hair say, CLOSE THE DOOR!
Omar closes the door.
[Creak, bang]
The tall boy asks, WHO ARE YOU?
Omar answers, I'M AGENT OMAR,
ODD SQUAD MOBILE UNIT.
WHO ARE YOU?
The tall boy says, WE ARE A SHADOW ORGANIZATION
WORKING WITHIN ODD SQUAD.
The tall boy looks at three other agents standing beside him. A girl has her black hair pulled away from her face. A boy has short dark hair. The girl standing on the end of the row of agents wears her hair in a bun.
Omar says, WHOA! DOES THAT MEAN THAT YOU'RE
TRYING TO TAKE DOWN ODD SQUAD?
The tall boy says, WHAT? NO.
WE'RE TRYING
TO MAKE A SHADOW.
The girl with the bun says, YEAH, WE JUST WANTED TO PUT ON
A SHADOW PUPPET SHOW
FOR THE MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT.
Omar nods.
The girl with dark hair says, WE'VE BEEN MEETING
EVERY WEEK IN THE DARK
FOR TWO MONTHS,
BUT WE HAVEN'T MADE
ONE SHADOW YET.
Omar says, YOU KNOW THAT YOU NEED A LIGHT
TO MAKE A SHADOW, RIGHT?
The girl with black hair asks, DID HE SAY LIGHT?
The boy with short hair says, TELL US MORE.
Omar explains, YOU NEED TWO THINGS
TO MAKE A SHADOW-
A LIGHT SOURCE
AND AN OBJECT.
Omar holds up a flashlight.
He says, HERE'S YOUR
LIGHT SOURCE.
JUST SHINE IT
ON THE WALL.
Omar picks up a stapler.
He says, HERE'S YOUR OBJECT.
NOW, THE SHADOW
IS MADE ON THE WALL
BECAUSE THE OBJECT
BLOCKS PART OF THE LIGHT
FROM THE LIGHT SOURCE.
WATCH!
[Tapping stapler]
The agents say, WHOA!
[Tapping]
Omar HI, I'M MR. STAPLER.
I LIKE TO STAPLE THINGS.
[Laughing]
The tall boy says, YOU'RE THE ONE
WE'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR.
WILL YOU TEACH US
YOUR WAYS?
The boy with short hair says, AND THEN WE CAN DAZZLE EVERYBODY
AT THE GOLF TOURNAMENT
WITH A SHADOW PUPPET SHOW!
Omar says, I DON'T KNOW.
The agents bow and chant,
ALL HAIL THE SHADOW KING!
ALL HAIL THE SHADOW KING!
Omar says, WELL, I GUESS I COULD STAY
FOR A BIT.
Omar smiles proudly.
The agents say, YES! YEAH.
[Clapping]
Orla, Oswald and Opal walk up white front porch leading to a bright red house.
[Door knocker knock]
A man in a red tee-shirt says, ODD SQUAD.
Orla says, RED FRED. WE KNOW YOU'VE BEEN
STEALING ALL THINGS RED.
The man says, I'M NOT RED FRED.
I'M CRIMSON CARL!
[Birds chirp]
Carl says, I DON'T STEAL RED THINGS
BECAUSE RED AND CRIMSON
ARE TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
CRIMSON HAS A LITTLE MORE
BLUISH-PURPLE IN IT.
Orla says, WE WISH TO INVESTIGATE
YOUR HOUSE OF LIES!
Orla, Oswald and Opal push past Crimson Carl.
Opal yells, LET US IN!
Orla says, AHA!
A man wearing red sunglasses holds a red cushion in front of his face.
Orla says, I SEE YOU'RE HIDING
RED FRED.
Crimson Carl says, THAT'S RUBY ROBBY.
Orla points at a man wearing a red headband.
She says, THEN YOU ARE RED FRED!
Carl say, VERMILLION VINCE.
HOW ARE YOU GUYS
NOT SEEING THIS?
Orla points to a blonde-haired woman, THEN IT IS YOU!
Carl says, ROSE ROSE.
DO I NEED TO PULL OUT
THE COLOUR SWATCHES?
YOU CAN TELL FROM
THE SLIGHT PINKISH HUE!
Opal says, AND THE ROSES.
Carl says, RIGHT.
Orla points at a man wearing a blue helmet and says, YOU!
Carl says, TURQUOISE TIM.
NOT EVEN CLOSE TO RED.
[Phone ringtone plays Odd Squad theme music]
Orla says, I AM ORLA,
LEADER OF OSMU.
North Carolina Ms. O holds a golf putter as she walks past tables covered with white table clothes and green banners.
North Carolina Ms. O says, SOMETHING ELSE JUST DISAPPEARED!
Oral says, THAT CANNOT BE.
WE ARE AT THE RED HOUSE
WITH ALL THE RED VILLAINS.
North Carolina Ms. O says, NOBODY THERE DID THIS.
THE MISSING THING
IS A GREEN RUG
FROM A FURNITURE STORE.
I'LL SEND A PICTURE.
PLEASE SOLVE THIS.
I CAN'T START MY TOURNAMENT
WITH THIS VILLAIN ON THE LOOSE.
Orla snaps her cellphone shut.
[Snap]
[Sigh]
Orla says, IT IS NOT A COLOUR PATTERN.
I QUIT THE ROLE AS LEADER.
Orla kneels and holds out the red file folder.
Oswald takes it and says, SURE. I GUESS I CAN
GIVE IT A WHIRL.
LET'S GO
TO THE VAN.
Opal shrugs and follows Oswald and Orla.
Carl waves.
Carl says, GOOD LUCK, ODD SQUAD!
THAT DIDN'T SOUND RIGHT.
He sarcastically repeats,
GOOD LUCK, ODD SQUAD!
HEH. YEAH.
THAT WAS BETTER.
[Grinding]
[Inspiring music plays]
Omar sits on a chair. The back of the chair is lined with pink, blue, green and yellow paper. Rulers and pencils poke out of the sides of the back of the chair.
Omar says, ROYAL SUBJECTS,
BRING ME SOMETHING
TO MAKE SHADOWS WITH.
PLEASE?
The tall boy says, YOUR MAJESTY,
I HUMBLY PRESENT YOU
THIS GLASS UNICORN.
Omar says, I CANNOT MAKE SHADOWS
WITH THIS.
IT'S TRANSPARENT.
The boy asks, WHAT DID YOU CALL IT?
Omar says, TRANSPARENT.
YOU CAN SEE THROUGH IT,
WHICH MEANS LIGHT
GOES THROUGH IT.
Omar uses a flashlight to shine light through the unicorn.
[Click, click]
He says, WITHOUT SOMETHING
TO BLOCK THE LIGHT,
A SHADOW
CANNOT BE MADE.
YOU!
WHAT HAVE YOU
BROUGHT ME?
The girl with the bun kneels in front of Omar.
She says, YOUR HIGHNESS,
I HAVE BROUGHT YOU
NOTHIN' BUT THIS SOILED RAG.
Omar snatches the rag from her hands.
Omar says, YES! IT'S PERFECT!
THIS RAG IS OPAQUE.
The girl says, I DO NOT KNOW
WHAT THAT MEANS,
BUT THANKS
FOR SAYIN' SO!
Omar explains, OPAQUE MEANS THAT LIGHT
CANNOT PASS THROUGH.
IT BLOCKS THE LIGHT,
WHICH CREATES A--
SHADOW!
Omar flaps the rag in front of the flashlight and creates a shadow of flying bird.
The girl with the bun says, IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL!
Beside her, the boy with short hair wipes his eyes.
Omar says, WEEP. I SHALL CONTINUE
MY LESSON WHILE YOU WEEP.
The tall boy says, YOU'LL BE WEEPING
WHEN I HAVE MY REVENGE.
Omar asks, WHAT WAS THAT, ODIN?
Odin says, NOTHIN', YOUR HIGHNESS.
Odin mumbles, NOTHIN' BUT SWEET,
SWEET REVENGE.
[Whoosh]
Oswald, Opal and Orla walk towards a table with three stacks of paper on it.
Oswald says, I STUDIED ALL THE DATA.
PLEASE TURN TO THE DIAGRAM
ON PAGE THIRTY-ONE.
[Pages turn]
Opal asks, HOW DID YOU GET
THESE PRINTOUTS SO FAST?
Oswald says, I KNOW A GUY.
AS YOU SEE IN FIGURE NINE-A,
EACH OF THE OBJECTS STOLEN
IS A DIFFERENT SHAPE.
FIRST A TRIANGLE,
THEN A SQUARE,
THEN A PENTAGON,
THEN THIS RUG-
A HEXAGON,
OR A SIX-SIDED SHAPE.
Orla says, SO, IT'S A SHAPES PATTERN.
Oswald explains, AN ADDING SIDES PATTERN
TO BE SPECIFIC.
Opal says, THE FIRST OBJECT
HAS THREE SIDES.
THEN FOUR SIDES,
THEN FIVE,
SIX.
Oswald says, SO, I PREDICT THE NEXT THING
THAT WILL BE STOLEN
WILL BE A
SEVEN-SIDED SHAPE.
Orla says, SO WE MUST FIND A VILLAIN
THAT LIKES TO ADD SIDES.
Oswald says, VAN COMPUTER,
IS THERE ANYONE IN TOWN
WITH A NAME LIKE "SIDES"?
[Beeping]
The computer says,
MR. SIDES IS AT TWENTY-ONE MAIN STREET.
Oswald says, PLEASE BRING US
THERE, THEN.
Orla asks, WHAT IS IN THE REST
OF THIS BOOK?
[Pages turn]
Oswald says, PICTURES OF KITTENS
JUST TO FILL IT IN.
They all exclaim, AWW! AWW!
THEY'RE PLAYING!
SO CUTE.
[Whoosh, bang]
A man scoops mashed potatoes out of a container.
[Squishing]
Oswald, Orla and Opal shout,
ODD SQUAD, ODD SQUAD,
STOP RIGHT THERE!
Oswald says, MR. SIDES,
WE KNOW YOU'RE THE VILLAIN
STEALING THINGS AROUND TOWN!
Mr. Sides says, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
VILLAIN? I'M JUST THE HONEST OWNER
OF A RESTAURANT
WHICH SERVES SIDES
OF ALL KINDS!
Orla says, YOU MEAN
SIDES OF SHAPES?
LIKE HEXAGONS?
Mr. Sides says, NO, NO, NO,
SIDE DISHES,
LIKE MASHED POTATOES
AND GUACAMOLE,
RICE PILAF,
THAT SORTA THING.
Opal asks, WAIT- YOU DON'T SERVE ANY
MAIN DISHES LIKE HAMBURGERS?
Mr. Sides says, NO, EVERYONE ELSE DOES THAT.
I'M JUST SIDES.
THAT'S MY THING.
IF YOU'RE HUNGRY, MIGHT I SUGGEST
THE ALL SIDES SPECTACULAR?
YOU CAN CHOOSE ANY THREE SIDES,
THEN YOU CHOOSE ANY TWO SIDES
TO GO AS SIDES TO THOSE SIDES.
Orla says, I DO NOT THINK
HE IS THE VILLAIN.
Mr. Sides says, NO, NO, I'M THE VICTIM!
MY RESTAURANT USED TO
HAVE FIVE GOLD STARS
ON THAT THERE POSTER.
SEE? THEY'RE GONE!
Mr. Sides points to a poster with five star-shaped holes in the top.
Oswald says, WAIT!
THOSE STARS
HAD TEN SIDES EACH.
TO FIT THE ADDING
SIDES PATTERN,
THE NEXT THING STOLEN
SHOULD'VE HAD SEVEN SIDES.
MY THEORY WAS WRONG.
I'M RETIRING AS LEADER.
[Bell Dings]
North Carolina Ms. O stands in the restaurant.
[Dramatic music plays]
North Carolina Ms. O says, THERE YOU FOUR ARE!
WAIT A MINUTE,
THERE'S ONLY THREE NOW.
Opal says, OMAR'S LOOKING
FOR A SOUVENIR.
North Carolina Ms. O says, THE TOURNAMENT
IS ABOUT THE BEGIN.
HAVE YOU SOLVED THIS THING YET?
Opal admits, NOT YET.
North Carolina Ms. O says, WELL, THAT DOES IT.
THE THIRD ANNUAL ODD SQUAD
MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT IS CANCELLED.
Mr. Sides says, AND I'M MR. SIDES!
Opal, Orla and Oswald say, WE KNOW!
Mr. Sides says, I KNOW, BUT THERE IS
SOMEONE NEW HERE NOW,
SO I WAS JUST SAYING IT FOR HER.
[Whoosh]
An animated rabbit with antlers in the Odd Squad logo says, TO BE CONTINUED.
[Official sounding music plays]
The animated rabbit roars.
[Roar]
[Typing]
Text reads , “Odd squad training video number six hundred and sixty-five. Know your buttons.”
A girl’s voice says, “ODD SQUAD TRAINING VIDEO NUMBER SIX HUNDRED AND SIXTY-FIVE. KNOW YOUR BUTTONS.”
Omar says, AGENT OMAR HERE.
YOU KNOW,
BEING A PART OF ODD SQUAD
MEANS THAT THERE'S
HIGH TECH BUTTONS EVERYWHERE.
ON YOUR SUIT,
ON YOUR GADGETS,
AND IN OUR CASE,
IN THE VAN.
AND IT'S IMPORTANT
TO KNOW HOW THEY WORK.
THERE ARE SO MANY BUTTONS!
WE'RE STILL DISCOVERING
NEW ONES EVERY DAY.
Omar holds up a thick book.
[Shuffle]
Omar continues, THERE'S AN
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
THAT EXPLAINS
WHAT EACH ONE DOES.
THIS IS PART ONE.
OF NINTY-THREE.
SO, I'VE PERFECTED A FASTER WAY
TO FIGURE THEM OUT.
PRESS A BUTTON
AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
LIKE THIS!
Omar presses a button.
[Beep]
A drawer rolls open and reveals a mini golf putt.
[Rolling sound]
Omar says, MINI-GOLF. COOL!
LET'S TRY
ANOTHER BUTTON.
Omar pushes another button as he says, BOOM.
[Beep]
A wall behind Omar turns, revealing secret shelves of candy.
Omar says, HMM.
I GUESS THAT BUTTON
DOESN'T DO ANYTHING.
HOW ABOUT--
Omar pushes a button. Lights flash.
[Beep]
[Alarm blares]
Omar asks, WAIT. WHAT'S HAPPENING?!
The van computer says,
SELF-DESTRUCT MODE ACTIVATED.
VAN WILL TURN INTO A PILE
OF PUDDING IN THIRTY SECONDS.
Omar says, OH, PUDDING! MMM.
WAIT, WHAT?
HOW DO I TURN THIS THING OFF?
The computer says, PRESS THE BUTTON AGAIN
WHEN THE LIGHT FLASHES RED.
Omar says, OKAY, RED, GOT IT.
OKAY.
Omar looks up at the lights as they flash and pushes the button.
Omar says, RE-- UGH, NO.
[Buzz]
Omar says, RED. AGH!
[Buzz]
He says, THE LIGHTS ARE FLASHING
TOO FAST!
The computer says, FIFTEEN SECONDS REMAINING.
Omar says, HOLD ON.
I THINK THAT THERE'S A PATTERN.
IF I CAN FIGURE OUT THE
REPEATING PATTERN OF THE LIGHTS,
I CAN PREDICT
WHEN IT'LL FLASH RED.
BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW, RED.
BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW, RED.
I THINK THAT
THAT'S THE PATTERN!
BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW, RED!
AND THEN IT REPEATS.
SO, RED COMES AFTER YELLOW.
BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW--
RED!
[Beeping]
The computer says, SELF-DESTRUCT
MODE DEACTIVATED.
Omar says, OKAY.
WELL, I'VE LEARNED
AN IMPORTANT LESSON.
NEVER PUSH A BUTTON WITHOUT
READING THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL.
[Book opens]
THERE'S A CANDY WALL?!
The animated rabbit says, AND NOW,
THE REST OF THE STORY.
Opal pleads, PLEASE, JUST GIVE US
A LITTLE MORE TIME
TO FIND THE VILLAIN, MS. O!
North Carolina Ms. O says, IT'S NORTH CAROLINA MS. O,
AND I CAN'T.
Opal says, BUT I'M IN CHARGE NOW,
SO THINGS WILL GO
MUCH SMOOTHER.
Orla says, YOU REALIZE
WE ARE RIGHT HERE.
Oswald says, YEAH.
North Carolina Ms. O says, SORRY, OPAL, BUT THERE'S
JUST NO MORE TIME.
LOOK.
North Carolina Ms. O takes out a tablet and shows a map with red ‘X’’s on it.
North Carolina Ms. O says,
THE VILLAIN HAS BEEN TAKING
STUFF ALL OVER TOWN,
AND THE ONLY PLACE LEFT
IS THE GOLF COURSE
AND I CAN'T TAKE THAT RISK.
Opal says, WAIT. IF THE VILLAIN
STRUCK MORE PLACES,
THAT'S MORE INFORMATION
FOR OUR PATTERN!
WHAT ELSE DISAPPEARED?
[Ding]
North Carolina Ms. O takes out a purple heart-shaped piece of construction paper.
North Carolina Ms. O says, JUST THESE
"I HEART GOLF" FLYERS.
I CUT THEM OUT MYSELF SO THEY'D
BE THE SAME ON BOTH SIDES.
Opal says, I HAVE AN IDEA.
[Dramatic music plays]
Opal says, NORTH CAROLINA MS. O,
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
Mr Sides leans towards North Carolina Ms. O.
He says, PLEASE ORDER SOME SIDES.
THIS WAS A TERRIBLE
BUSINESS IDEA.
North Carolina Ms. O says, I'LL HAVE THE
CHOCOLATE CHIPS!
Mr. Sides says, YES!
BACK IN BUSINESS!
[Whoosh]
Paper trees cast a forest-like shadow on a wall.
Omar says, OOOH!
VERY NICE.
THEY'LL BE PERFECT FOR
THE GOLF TOURNAMENT SHOW.
Odin puts his fingers together.
He asks, HOW ABOUT THIS BIRD?
The other agents mutter excitedly.
Omar says, YES!
YOUR VERY OWN HAND
CAN BE USED TO MAKE A SHADOW,
SINCE IT'S OPAQUE
AND YOU CAN'T SEE THROUGH IT.
EXCELLENT WORK, ODIN.
Odin says, THEN MAYBE I WILL BE SHADOW KING.
[Gasping]
A girl says, WHAT?
Omar says,
DID I HEAR A CHALLENGE?
WHY SHOULD YOU BE KING?
Odin says, I'VE BEEN IN THIS ROOM
WAY LONGER.
Omar says, I HAVE TAUGHT YOU
EVERYTHING YOU KNOW.
Odin says, YOU'LL WISH
THAT YOU HADN'T.
I CHALLENGE YOU
TO A SHADOW DUEL.
THE WINNER
TAKES THE THRONE.
[Gasping]
A girl exclaims, WHAT?
Omar asks, AND THE LOSER?
Odin says, MUST SAY, "HEY, GOOD JOB,"
TO THE WINNER.
AND HE MUST MEAN IT.
Omar says, CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.
CHOOSE YOUR
LIGHT SOURCE WISELY.
Omar and Odin hold large red flashlights.
[Dramatic music plays]
[Whoosh]
Opal, Oswald and Orla sit inside the van.
Opal says, LOOK.
WHEN I FOLD
THIS HEART FLYER IN HALF,
YOU CAN SEE THAT BOTH HALVES
ARE EXACTLY THE SAME.
Oswald says, AND THAT'S IMPORTANT
BECAUSE...
He whispers, I’M PAUSING SO YOU TELL ME!
Opal says, OH. IT'S SYMMETRICAL.
THE SAME
ON BOTH SIDES.
VAN COMPUTER, SHOW ME ALL THE
THINGS THAT WERE STOLEN TODAY.
[Beeping]
Opal says, NOW, LET'S SEE A VERTICAL LINE
STRAIGHT UP AND DOWN
THROUGH THE MIDDLE
OF EACH SHAPE.
IF THINGS ARE
EXACTLY THE SAME
ON BOTH SIDES
OF THE LINE,
THAT MEANS THEY'RE
SYMMETRICAL.
[Beeping]
Opal says, BOOM!
THEY'RE ALL
SYMMETRICAL!
THAT'S THE PATTERN!
VAN COMPUTER?
The computer says,
YOU ARE GOING TO ASK
IF THERE ARE ANY SYMMETRICAL
THEMED VILLAINS IN TOWN.
Orla whispers,
THE MACHINE IS LEARNING!
The computer says, THERE IS A VILLAIN
NAMED SYMMETRIC ALICE.
[Gasp]
Opal dials on her cellphone and holds it to her ear.
Opal says, NORTH CAROLINA MS. O,
I HAVE GOOD NEWS!
North Carolina Ms. O says,
SO DO I.
Opal says, YOU GO FIRST.
North Carolina Ms. O says,
THIS WHOLE SIDES THING,
IT REALLY WORKS.
EVERYTHING I'M HAVING
IS A SIDE DISH TO OATMEAL.
BROWN SUGAR, MAPLE SYRUP,
RAISINS, AND CHOCOLATE CHIPS!
WHAT'S YOUR NEWS?
Opal says, I KNOW HOW TO SAVE
YOUR GOLF TOURNAMENT.
North Carolina Ms. O says,
OKAY, YOUR NEWS IS BETTER.
I'LL MEET YOU
AT THE GOLF COURSE.
I'LL TAKE THE RAISINS TO GO!
Mr Sides says, OH, UH, WE DON'T HAVE
ANY TAKE-OUT CONTAINERS.
[Whoosh]
Odin holds his hand in front of his flashlight.
Odin says, A BUNNY!
The agents exclaim, OH!
Omar says, WATCH OUT FOR THE WOLF!
[Giggling]
The boy with short hair says, INCREDIBLE, KING OMAR.
Omar says, HERE'S A BAT!
Odin says, WHICH I'LL SCARE AWAY
WITH A GHOST.
The girl with the bun says, A SHADOW GHOST!
IMPRESSIVE, ODIN.
Omar says, I SEE YOUR GHOST,
AND I'LL RAISE YOU A WARRIOR!
Odin says, CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.
Odin’s shadow warrior hits Omar’s shadow warrior.
Odin says, HERE COMES A DRAGON!
ROAR!
The girl with black hair says, ODIN'S GONNA WIN!
Omar says, DON'T BE SO SURE.
ROAR!
Omar creates a giant shadow dragon.
The agents exclaim, NO WAY!
WHOA!
Odin falls to his knees.
He yells, NOOOOO!
Odin says, HEY, GOOD JOB.
I REALLY MEAN IT.
HOW'D YOU MAKE YOUR DRAGON
A GIANT?
[Solemn music plays]
Omar says, I JUST MOVED MY HANDS
CLOSER TO THE LIGHT SOURCE.
THE SHADOW GOT BIGGER
BECAUSE MY HANDS
WERE BLOCKING THE LIGHT.
The agents bow and chant,
ALL HAIL THE SHADOW KING!
ALL HAIL THE SHADOW KING!
[Phone notification music plays]
Omar says, KING OMAR'S
HOUSE OF FRIENDSHIP!
OH, HI, OPAL.
GOT IT.
HEADING RIGHT OVER.
I GOTTA HEAD OVER
TO THE GOLF TOURNAMENT.
MY TEAM NEEDS ME.
AND-- I NEED YOU
TO SHOW EVERYBODY
YOUR WONDERFUL SHADOWS!
[Cheering]
Omar says, LET'S DO THIS!
[Whoosh]
The mobile unit van descends towards a golf course.
[Engine]
The van computer says,
APPROACHING MINI-GOLF
TOURNAMENT.
[Whoosh]
Opal holds a megaphone as agents stare at her.
[Feedback squeal]
Opal says, LISTEN UP!
WE ARE GOING TO MAKE THIS THIRD
ANNUAL MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT
VILLAIN-PROOF!
I NEED ALL SYMMETRICAL OBJECTS
OUT OF HERE!
[Feedback squeal]
Orla says,
IF YOU CAN DRAW A VERTICAL LINE
DOWN THE MIDDLE
AND IT IS THE SAME
ON BOTH SIDES, IT MUST GO!
[Feedback squeal]
Oswald says, I HAVE NOTHING TO ADD!
I JUST REALLY WANTED
TO USE THIS THING!
UH, THIS IS REALLY NICE,
YEAH.
North Carolina Ms. O shouts, YOU HEARD THEM, PEOPLE!
MOVE, MOVE, MOVE!
[Cheering]
Oswald scans a three-shaped shrub.
[Beep]
Opal says, THE NUMBER THREE
IS NOT SYMMETRICAL.
Orla says,
FOLLOW ME.
HOLD THE BALLOON.
North Carolina Ms. O holds a white balloon.
[Beep]
Orla says, SYMMETRICAL.
[Ding]
Orla waves at a passing agent.
Orla shouts, YOU!
TAKE THESE BALLOONS
AND RUN FOR THE HILLS!
North Carolina Ms. O says, BUT WE NEED BALLOONS!
Orla says, NOT TO WORRY.
I HAVE AN IDEA.
Orla holds a knot of balloons.
Orla says, THESE ARE NOT SYMMETRICAL AT ALL.
[Sigh]
Oswald scans a golf-ball cake.
He says, BUT THIS CAKE IS.
Opal turns to an agent, EXCUSE ME,
I NEED YOU TO TAKE A WEIRD
A CHUNK OUT OF THIS CAKE.
The agent says, IT WILL BE
MY ABSOLUTE PLEASURE.
He smashes his fist into a corner of the cake.
He looks at his fist and says, HMM.
Opal says, YEAH, THAT'LL WORK.
[Sigh]
Oswald puts a small plastic golf putter in the round part of the cake.
Oswald says, AND THESE SHOULD TAKE CARE
OF THE GOLF BALL.
Opal runs onto a stage.
Opal says, CITIZENS OF PINEHURST!
I AM HAPPY TO REPORT
THAT ALL SYMMETRICAL OBJECTS
HAVE BEEN REMOVED!
THE GOLF TOURNAMENT
IS SAVED!
[Applause]
[Zap]
A three disappears off the stage.
Agents duck and say, WHOA!
[Cackling]
A woman in a red and black catsuit wears her black hair in two buns. She holds a zapper in each hand.
She says, HELLO, ODD SQUAD!
Opal says, SYMMETRIC ALICE!
[Zapping, screaming]
Opal says, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
THE NUMBER THREE
IS NOT SYMMETRICAL-- LOOK!
Opal scans a three.
[Buzz]
Opal says, SEE?
Alice says, YOU'RE ONLY LOOKING AT THE
VERTICAL LINE OF SYMMETRY--
THE LINE THAT GOES
UP AND DOWN.
YOU FORGOT ABOUT
THE HORIZONTAL LINE OF SYMMETRY!
Opal says, HORIZONTAL?
LIKE SIDE TO SIDE?
Opal recalibrates her scanner and scans a three.
[Ding]
Opal says, IT IS SYMMETRICAL!
IT'S THE SAME ABOVE
AND BELOW THE LINE.
Alice says, MAKING THIS THIRD ANNUAL
MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT
A BUFFET OF SYMMETRY!
[Cackles]
Alice fires her zapper.
[Screaming]
North Carolina Ms. O shouts, THIS YEAR'S TOURNAMENT
IS AS BIG A DISASTER
AS THE OTHER YEARS!
Opal says, I GUESS I'M NOT MEANT
TO BE THE LEADER EITHER.
Omar ask, WHAT'S GOING ON?
[Zapping, screaming]
Opal says, SYMMETRIC ALICE IS WINNING,
AND WE LOST.
WHY ARE YOU WEARING
A CROWN?
Omar says, I WAS LOOKING
FOR A SOUVENIR,
THEN I BECAME THE KING OF
THE LEAGUE OF SHADOW MAKERS.
WE WERE GONNA
PUT ON A PUPPET SHOW.
[Zapping, screaming, cackling]
Alice says, I NEED MORE
SYMMETRICAL THINGS!
THE BIGGER THE BETTER!
Omar says, WAIT. I HAVE AN IDEA.
MAYBE WE COULD CREATE
SOME BIG SYMMETRICAL SHAPES
TO DISTRACT
SYMMETRIC ALICE.
YOU'VE GOTTA TRUST ME
ON THIS ONE.
I NEED YOU ALL
TO CLEAR THE STAGE.
SHADOW LEAGUE,
WE'LL PROJECT
OUR SHADOWS UP THERE.
BUT FIRST,
WE NEED A LIGHT SOURCE.
The girl with black hair says, I HAVE A SPOTLIGHT-INATOR
Omar says, PERFECT!
LET'S SET IT DOWN THERE.
[Zap]
Omar says, NOW, WHO HAS SOME OPAQUE OBJECTS
TO BLOCK THE LIGHT?
Odin says, OUR HANDS ARE OPAQUE.
Omar says, EXCELLENT.
NOW SHOW ME A BUTTERFLY!
The four shadow league agents create a giant butterfly on the stage.
Omar says, IT'S BEAUTIFUL,
BUT IT'S NOT BIG ENOUGH.
The boy with short hair says, MOVE CLOSER
TO THE LIGHT SOURCE,
TO BLOCK MORE LIGHT.
Alice says, IT'S SO--SYMMETRICAL.
I MUST ZAP IT!
[Zap]
The agents pull their hands away from the light and
the shadow butterfly disappears.
Alice says, UNGH! WHAT?
WHERE DID IT GO?!
Omar whispers, QUICK--
SHOW ME A HEART!
[Zap]
[Frustrated grumble]
Omar whispers, GIVE ME AN ARROW!
[Zap]
Omar says, A STAR!
[Zap]
Alice says, UNGH!
Omar whispers, A TAJ MAHAL!
[Zap]
Alice says, UNGH!
WHY CAN'T I HAVE THEM?!
Odin says, BECAUSE SHADOWS ARE JUST LIGHT
BEING BLOCKED BY OBJECTS.
Omar says, THE STUDENT
HAS BECOME THE MASTER.
Opal says, SYMMETRIC ALICE,
HAND OVER YOUR GADGETS
AND THE STUFF YOU STOLE!
Alice says, BUSTED.
Opal and Oswald take Alice’s guns.
[Rattle, rattle]
[Chuckling]
[Triumphant music plays]
Omar smiles proudly.
[Cheering, applause]
The shadow league high five each other.
[Hands slapping]
North Caroline Ms. O says, IT IS MY GREAT HONOUR
TO PRESENT THE THIRD ANNUAL ODD SQUAD
MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT TROPHY
TO THE ODD SQUAD MOBILE UNIT.
[Clapping]
North Caroline Ms. O says,
NOW, LET'S EAT SOME CAKE WITH
A WEIRD CHUNK TAKEN OUT OF IT.
[Upbeat music plays]
Oswald says, OKAY.
Opal says, HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT, OMAR?
MAYBE YOU'RE OUR LEADER.
Oswald says, YEAH, YOU DID KINDA
SAVE THE DAY.
Orla adds, AND YOU'RE WEARING A CROWN.
Omar takes off the crown.
Omar says, MMM, NO, THANKS.
I DON'T HAVE TIME TO BE OSMU
LEADER AND THE SHADOW KING.
[Huh]
Opal asks, SO, WHAT DO WE DO?
Mr. Sides says, IF YOU ASK ME,
A GOOD TEAM IS LIKE
A PLATE OF SIDES.
THERE'S NO MAIN DISH
AND EVERYONE'S EQUAL.
SURE, SOME MOMENTS
MAY CALL FOR GUACAMOLE.
OTHERS MAY CALL
FOR BROWN RICE
OR PEPPER AND ROSEMARY HOME FRIES.
THE RARE OCCASION WILL CALL
FOR TANGY MUSTARD COLESLAW.
Oswald asks Opal, AM I THE TANGY COLESLAW?
Mr. Sides says, BUT ALL FOUR SIDES TOGETHER,
ON ONE PLATE,
THAT'S YOU GUYS!
YEAH!
Mr. Sides leaps into the air and stays there.
Opal, Oswald, Orla and Omar leap into the air beside him.
They shout, YEAH!
Hands tie shoelaces, a coat zips, a badge on a jacket turns.
[Zip, creak]
Opal says, I JOINED BECAUSE PAPER
SHOULD COME FROM TREES,
NOT SQUIRRELS DRESSED IN
THREE-PIECE BUSINESS SUITS.
Omar says, I JOINED BECAUSE
UP SHOULD BE UP,
NOT DOWN AND SLIGHTLY
TO THE LEFT.
Orla says, I JOINED BECAUSE I SHOULD NOT
FLICKER IN AND OUT OF REALITY.
[Woo woo woo]
Orla fades and reappears.
She says, THIS FEELS AS WEIRD AS IT LOOKS.
Opal says, WE ARE--
Omar says, WE ARE--
Big O says, WE ARE ODD SQUAD.
A voice says, SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME,
AND ALSO FORWARD IN TIME,
WE'VE BEEN FIGHTING ODD.
IN OUR SPARE TIME,
WE ALSO LIKE TO DRAW
PICTURES OF OURSELVES.
WE REALLY LIKE THIS ONE.
THERE IS NO CASE TOO BIG,
NO CASE TOO SMALL.
AT ODD SQUAD,
WE DO IT ALL.
YES, THAT IS THREE SUNS
SETTING AT ONCE.
WOW, THAT WAS A HOT DAY.
JOIN ODD SQUAD AT TVOKIDS.COM
[Buzz, ding]
A video game character moves in a game.
The voice says, AND YOU’LL GET
TOP-NOTCH TRAINING.
THE AGENTS OF ODD SQUAD
HAVE BEEN TURNED INTO PUPPIES.
WE NEED YOUR HELP
TO CHANGE THEM BACK.
[Pop, pop, pop]
WHERE TO LOOK
FOR HIDDEN CREATURES?
[Squawking]
[Thundering footsteps]
The voice says, GO TO TVOKIDS.COM TO HELP US
PUT THINGS RIGHT AGAIN.
YOU CAN ALSO WATCH ODD SQUAD CASES.
A video clip plays in a corner of a monitor.
[Unfolding paper]
Opal says, IT'S FROM MY FRIEND OSWALD.
"DEAR OPAL, I FOUND THE MAP."
YES! HE DID IT!
HE FOUND THE MAP!
HE FOUND THE MAP!
Omar says, I AM CONFUSED.
WHO IS OSWALD,
AND WHAT MAP?
Opal says, OSWALD WORKS AT AN ODD SQUAD
MUSEUM IN NEW YORK CITY,
AND THE MAP IS THE WAY
TO FIND THE FORTY-FOUR-LEAF CLOVER.
Big O says, JOIN TODAY.
ODD SQUAD NEEDS YOU.
AND I NEED A SPECIAL DELIVERY.
An envelope attached to a small blue and navy blue parachute floats down beside the Big O.
She says, AW, THAT WAS SPECIAL.
WELL, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? GO!
[Upbeat music plays]
Text reads “Odd Squad. Teaming Up with Teamwork Together as a Team.”
[Typing]
A female announcer says, ODD SQUAD. TEAMING UP WITH TEAMWORK TOGETHER AS A TEAM.
Omar stands by a shelf.
Omar says, HEY, I'M OMAR.
I WORKED FOR THE VERY FIRST
ODD SQUAD MOBILE UNIT.
I GET TO TRAVEL AROUND THE WORLD
IN THIS AWESOME VAN
AND SOLVE SO MUCH ODDNESS.
AND OCCASIONALLY,
I STOP TO GET A SOUVENIR.
Flashback. Omar looks at a map, WE CAN TOUR TORONTO!
AND GET A SOUVENIR!
Flashback. Omar says, I GUESS I'LL JUST STEP AWAY
TO FIND A NORTH CAROLINA SOUVENIR.
Flashback. Omar says, I GOT A SOUVENIR!
Omar says, MAYBE MORE THAN OCCASIONALLY.
Omar opens a display case.
[Whoosh]
Omar says, I LIKE TO HAVE
SOMETHING TO REMEMBER
THE AMAZING MOMENTS
IN MY LIFE.
BUT IT ISN'T ALL
FUN AND GAMES
HERE AT THE ODD SQUAD
MOBILE UNIT.
Flashback. Omar says, DEVILS TOWER
BOARD GAME?
Flashback. Omar says, YOU NEED TO PUT THE BALL
IN THE HOLE.
Flashback. Omar sings, CARDS!
Omar say, WELL, THIS HAS BEEN
FUN TO DO.
WISH I HAD A SOUVENIR
TO REMEMBER IT.
OR MAYBE I DO.
Omar picks up a snowglobe.
He whispers, THAT'S A MINI ME IN THERE!
[Shaking]
Omar shakes the globe and says, NOW WAIT FOR IT.
Snow falls on Omar.
He shouts, YEAH!
[Upbeat music plays]
Text reads “Odd squad. Teams working with teams together as a team together. [I think that was it.”
[Typing]
A female announcer says, ODD SQUAD. TEAMS WORKING WITH TEAMS TOGETHER AS A TEAM TOGETHER. I THINK THAT WAS IT.
[Exciting music plays]
Odd Squad end credits roll.
Featuring
Orla: Alyssa Hidiago
Oswald: Gavin MacIver Wright
Omar” Jayce Alexander
Opal: Valentine Herrera
With Millie David as Big O.
The animated sun shines.
Teacher Joel sits by his bookcase.
Text reads “Primary one to three. Teacher Joel.”
[Upbeat music plays]
Joel says, WELCOME BACK, TVO KIDS.
I LOVE THE WAY ODD SQUAD
USED OUR IDEA OF SHADOWS,
BUT ALSO BROUGHT IN
A LOT OF MATH.
IN THAT EPISODE,
WE WERE TALKING ALL ABOUT
THE MATH OF SYMMETRY.
YOU'LL REMEMBER
FROM THAT EPISODE
THAT SYMMETRY IS WHEN WE SEE
THE SAME THING,
ALMOST LIKE
A MIRROR IMAGE,
ON BOTH SIDES
OF A LINE OF SYMMETRY.
AND WE CAN USE THAT SYMMETRY
AND OUR SHADOW LEARNING,
TO CREATE A REALLY COOL
PIECE OF ART AT HOME.
Joel holds up a piece of paper.
[Folding noise]
He says, YOU'RE GONNA WANT TO GRAB A
PIECE OF PAPER JUST LIKE THIS,
AND FOLD IT NICELY IN HALF.
YOU CAN GUESS--
THIS IS GOING TO BECOME
OUR LINE OF SYMMETRY.
NOW, USING A FLASHLIGHT
LIKE WE TALKED ABOUT EARLIER,
A LAMP, OR EVEN A SUNNY WINDOW,
YOU ARE GOING TO TRACE
THE SHADOW OF YOUR HAND.
SO, YOU'LL WANT TO HOLD YOUR
HAND ABOVE THE PAPER
AND TRY TO MAKE YOUR FINGERS
IN THE SHAPE OF BUTTERFLY WINGS.
I'M GIVING YOU A BIT OF A CLUE
AS TO WHAT KIND OF ART
WE ARE DOING TODAY.
NOW, THIS LINE
AT THE BOTTOM OF YOUR PALM,
RIGHT WHERE
YOUR WRIST STARTS,
YOU'RE GONNA WANT
TO LINE THAT UP,
THE SHADOW OF THAT,
UP WITH THE LINE OF SYMMETRY
AS MUCH IS POSSIBLE.
AND ONCE YOU'VE GOT
THAT SHADOW ON THE PAPER,
USE YOUR OTHER HAND
TO CAREFULLY TRACE.
AND YOU'LL COME UP
WITH SOMETHING
THAT LOOKS A LITTLE BIT
LIKE THIS.
Joel holds up his finished drawing.
He says, YOU CAN SEE WHERE
MY THUMB WAS BENDING...
TWO OF MY FINGERS HERE,
AND TWO,
THINKING ABOUT
BUTTERFLY WINGS
WITH THAT PART OF MY HAND
RIGHT ON THE LINE OF S SYMMETRY.
ONCE YOU'VE TRACED
YOUR SHADOW HAND,
YOU'RE GONNA WANT TO FOLD IT
THE OPPOSITE WAY.
SO, YOU'VE STILL GOT
THAT LINE OF SYMMETRY,
BUT YOUR PENCIL MARKS
ARE ON THE OUTSIDE.
AND HERE'S WHY.
YOU'LL REMEMBER, I ASKED YOU TO
SAFELY GET A PAIR OF SCISSORS.
YOU'RE GOING TO CUT ALL ALONG
THOSE LINES YOU TRACED,
[Cutting paper noise]
Joel says, THOSE SHADOW LINES...
AND WHAT YOU'LL NOTICE...
WHEN YOU'RE DONE CUTTING
AND YOU OPEN IT UP...
IS... A SYMMETRICAL BUTTERFLY.
YOU KNOW IT'S SYMMETRICAL
BECAUSE THE LINE OF SYMMETRY
IS HERE AND WE SEE THE EXACT SAME SHAPE
ON BOTH SIDES.
NOW, IF YOU'VE SEEN
A BUTTERFLY BEFORE,
YOU KNOW WE NEED
A LOT MORE COLOUR!
I'M GONNA CHALLENGE YOU
LATER IN THE DAY
TO REVISIT
THIS PIECE OF ART
AND COLOUR THE WINGS
OF YOUR BUTTERFLY.
THINKING ABOUT
INTERESTING COLOURS,
INTERESTING PATTERNS,
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY,
OUR BIG IDEA OF SYMMETRY.
IF YOU COLOUR THE TIP
OF THIS BUTTERFLY WING RED,
YOU'LL WANT TO DO
THE EXACT SAME OVER HERE
TO KEEP IT SYMMETRICAL.
IF YOU DO SOME BLUE
AND PURPLE POLKA DOTS
ALONG THE BOTTOM
OF THIS WING,
YOU'RE GONNA WANT TO DO
THE SAME OVER HERE TO KEEP IT SYMMETRICAL.
NOW, WE TALKED ABOUT SYMMETRY,
WE TALKED ABOUT SHADOWS,
AND WE TALKED ABOUT SCIENCE.
IF YOU'RE NOTICING
THE SAME THING I'M NOTICING,
ALL OF THOSE WORDS
START WITH THE LETTER ‘S’.
SO, BEFORE I SAY GOODBYE
FOR THE DAY,
LET'S CHECK OUT THIS EPISODE
OF ABC SINGSONG
AND SEE IF WE CAN THINK
OF EVEN MORE LETTER S WORDS.
The animated sun appears.
[Whee]
TVO Kids logo appears. The Goddard Brown logo appears.
Text reads “Original.”
[Giggling]
Male voices sing, IT'S AN ABC SINGSONG
Text reads “By Warren Brown and Adam Goddard.”
A male narrator says, ABOUT THE S.
[Blues music plays]
An animated green boy with curly green hair has a red nose.
The boy sings, S IS FOR SKUNK.
I THINK SKUNKS ARE SWEET.
LOOK AT THAT.
S IS FOR SKUNK,
STROLLING DOWN THE STREET.
An animated skunk walks on a path. The skunk stands in shallow water as a swan swims by him.
[Hands clap a rhythm]
The boy sings, THE SKUNK IS SITTING
BY A STREAM
WITH A SWAN SWIMMIN' BY
S IS FOR SKUNK.
SKUNK STARTS WITH S,
THAT'S WHY.
S FOR SKUNK
SAILIN' ON THE SEA
The skunk stands on a boat. It sniffs a sneaker.
OR SMELLING SMELLY SNEAKERS
THINKING, "THAT SMELLS JUST LIKE ME"
WHEW!
S IS FOR SEVERAL SKUNKS,
THAT'S QUITE THE SKUNK SUPPLY.
Four skunks walk side by side.
He sings, SURPRISE
A SKUNK IN SPACE,
FLOATING THROUGH THE SKY
A skunk floats in space. The skunk gestures at his white stripe. The skunk wears socks.
The boy sings, S IS FOR SKUNK WITH
THAT SUPER STYLISH STRIPE
THE SKUNK IS SPORTING
SWANKY SOCKS
LOOKIN' OUT OF SIGHT!
WOO
S CAN START SEVERAL WORDS,
LIKE "SQUID"
AND "SNOWMAN" TOO.
BUT I LIKE S FOR SKUNK.
SKUNK.
HOW ABOUT YOU?
[Cheerful music plays]
The TVO logo appears.
The animated sun rises in a blue sky.
[Upbeat music plays]
Teacher Joel sits by his bookcase.
Text reads “Primary one to three. Teacher Joel.”
He says, ALL RIGHT, TVOKIDS,
THAT'S JUST ABOUT IT FOR THE
TIME WE HAVE TOGETHER TODAY.
BUT BEFORE I SAY GOODBYE,
I WANNA REMIND YOU
OF SOME OF THE LEARNING
WE DID AND SOME OF THE PIECES
YOU CAN CONTINUE AT HOME
AS YOUR DAY GOES ON.
I SHOWED YOU WITH MY LAMP
HOW I MADE SOME SHADOW PUPPETS.
MAYBE LATER TODAY
YOU WILL COME UP
WITH YOUR OWN PLAY
BASED OFF SHADOW PUPPETS.
I'VE ALSO ASKED YOU TO COME UP
WITH A KWL CHART,
FOR OUR SHADOW
SCIENCE LEARNING.
REMEMBER, WE START WITH WHAT YOU KNOW,
WE COME UP WITH
SOME WONDERS--
THOSE ARE THOSE QUESTION WORDS
WE LOOKED AT TOGETHER--
AND THEN,
THROUGH SOME EXPLORATION,
WITH A LAMP, A FLASHLIGHT,
OR DEFINITELY
THE SUN OUTSIDE,
YOU'RE GONNA FILL IN
THAT L-
THINGS YOU LEARNED
ABOUT SHADOWS
AS YOU EXPLORED THROUGH
YOUR EXPERIMENTATION AT HOME.
I ALSO SHOWED YOU HOW
WE CAN USE A LINE OF SYMMETRY
ON A FOLDED PAPER
AND TRACE THE SHADOW
OF OUR HAND
TO MAKE A BUTTERFLY WING.
WHEN YOU CUT ALONG THAT
PENCIL LINE AND OPEN IT UP,
YOU'VE GOT
A SYMMETRICAL BUTTERFLY.
YOU CAN GO AHEAD
AND COLOUR THAT IN.
I HOPE YOU ENJOYED OUR THINKING
TODAY ABOUT SCIENCE,
AND SHADOWS, AND SYMMETRY,
AND THE LAST THING
I'M GONNA SAY
ALSO STARTS WITH AN S.
IT'S "WEE YOU LATER".
THANK YOU, TVOKIDS,
FOR JOINING US TODAY
ON POWER HOUR OF LEARNING,
MY NAME IS TEACHER JOEL,
THANKS FOR YOUR HARD WORK,
AND I'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME.
BUH-BYE!
Teacher Joel waves.
The animated sun rises.
Text reads “Bonus material.”
[Exciting music plays]
Tumbleweed announces, TUMBLEWEED PRESENTS TUMBLETOWN READS.
Text reads “Tumbleweed presents Tumbletown Reads.”
[Dog barks, owl hoots, car horn honks]
[Page flips]
Text reads “Today’s tale. Start at the beginning.”
Tumbleweed reads, TODAY’S TALE. START AT THE BEGINNING.
A sign on a tall building reads “Tumbletown Gazette.”
A brown mouse says, THAT'S WHAT I DID
ON THE WEEKEND.
Tumbleweed, a beige hamster, says, WOW! SKIING AND WINDSURFING
ON THE SAME DAY?!
The brown mouse says, YEP. I'M LIKE THAT, THOUGH.
WILD AND UNPREDICTABLE.
[Chuckle]
Tumbleweed says, OH! OH!
LISTEN TO WHAT HAPPENED TO ME
ON THE WEEKEND!
TRUE STORY.
WELL, I WATCHED THIS
REALLY FUNNY OLD MOVIE
WITH MY NEW FRIEND ELSA.
[Movie reel spins]
[Upbeat music plays]
Tumbleweed and a guinea pig watch a movie. They dig a hole.
BUT THAT WAS ONLY AFTER
A LOT OF DIGGING
BECAUSE, LET'S FACE IT,
NOTHING GETS OUT
BLUEBERRY JUICE.
[Needle scratching record noise]
The mouse interrupts, HUH? TUMBLEWEED--
Tumbleweed says, YEAH?
The mouse says, NOTHING YOU JUST SAID
MAKES ANY SENSE TO ME.
Tumbleweed chews food, then says, MM, MM. ON NOM. WHY?
The mouse asks, YOU WERE DIGGING
AND YOU FOUND A MOVIE?
Tumbleweed say, UH-HUH.
The mouse asks, WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO
WITH BLUEBERRY JUICE AND A MAP?
Tumbleweed says, OH, OF COURSE!
I FORGOT TO MENTION,
I SAW THIS REALLY NICE CARPET
AT A YARD SALE!
The mouse asks, WHAT?
Flashback. Tumbleweed stops his car by tables at the side of the road.
Tumbleweed says, WELL, I PULLED OVER
AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
WHEN I SAW THIS CARPET
TO REPLACE MY OLD ONE.
AND ELSA I GAVE ME
A REALLY GOOD PRICE,
SO I HAD TO SAY YES.
The mouse asks, AND WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO
WITH BLUEBERRY JUICE?
Tumbleweed says, OH, RIGHT!
Flashback. Tumbleweed knocks over a glass.
[Breaking glass]
He says, OH! OH, NO!
I ACCIDENTALLY KNOCKED MY GLASS
OF BLUEBERRY JUICE
ONTO THE CARPET.
AND THEN I-- WAIT, NO.
LET ME START AGAIN.
HOLD ON, UM--
OKAY, I GOT IT.
I BROUGHT
THE NEW CARPET HOME,
THE MAP TOLD ME AND ELSA
WHERE TO DIG.
A dark brown hamster peers over the top of a cubicle wall.
He asks, COULD YOU KEEP IT DOWN
OVER THERE?
SOME OF US ARE TRYING TO GET
SOME WORK DONE, YOU KNOW.
The brown mouse says, JIM, GET BACK TO WORK.
Jim says, WELL, YOU KNOW,
THE FAT CATS TOLD ME--
The brown mouse says, TUMBLEWEED, YOU WERE TELLING A STORY.
Tumbleweed says, YES.
Jim grumbles, THIS IS A WORK AREA.
The brown mouse says, AND IT DOESN'T
MAKE ANY SENSE!
Tumbleweed says, BUT…
The mouse interrupts, YOU NEED TO GET
THE EVENTS IN ORDER!
START AT THE BEGINNING.
Tumbleweed says, UM--
[Jazz music plays]
The mouse asks, WHAT WAS THE FIRST THING
THAT HAPPENED?
Tumbleweed says, OH! THANKS FOR ASKING.
WELL, FIRST OF ALL,
I SPILLED SOME BLUEBERRY JUICE
ON MY RUG.
Flashback.
[Breaking glass]
Tumbleweed says, OH, NO!
Tumbleweed narrates his flashback, AND THEN I DROVE
TO THE STORE.
Flashback. Tumbleweed drives to a “Carpet Store.”
He narrates, THE SALESMAN TOLD ME NOTHING
GETS OUT BLUEBERRY JUICE.
A salesman says, UH, NOTHIN' GETS OUT
BLUEBERRY JUICE, SON!
Tumbleweed chews a rug, OM, NOM, NOM.
The salesman says, UM, UH--
DON'T EAT ALL MY RUGS.
Tumbleweed narrates, AFTER FILLING UP ON CARPET,
I SAW A GARAGE SALE.
AND THERE I FOUND
THIS REALLY NICE NEW CARPET!
[Screeching tires]
The mouse asks, AND THAT'S WHERE
YOU MET ELSA?
Tumbleweed says, DIDN'T I MENTION THAT?
The mouse says, NO. CONTINUE, PLEASE.
Flashback continues.
Elsa says, LET ME HELP YOU
LOAD THAT ONTO YOUR CAR.
Tumbleweed narrates, WHEN I GOT
THE NEW ROAD HOME,
THERE WAS A NOTE
AND A MAP INSIDE.
HEY, A MAP!
I WONDER WHERE IT LEADS!
PERHAPS TO TREASURE.
HAHAHA!
SO, I SHOWED THE MAP ELSA.
SHE SAID IT WAS A MAP
TO HER BACKYARD.
Elsa says, BUT THIS IS A MAP
TO MY BACKYARD!
[Gasp]
Tumbleweed says, AND THE NOTE
TOLD US TO DIG
AT A PLACE
MARKED WITH AN X.
Tumbleweed digs.
He asks, ARE YOU SURE
THIS IS THE RIGHT PLACE?
Elsa says, YES. KEEP DIGGING.
Tumbleweed says, SO, I DID.
HEY, I THINK
I FOUND SOMETHING!
AND IT LOOKS HEAVY.
Elsa says, BETTER BRING IT UP, THEN
Tumbleweed says, YEAH, WELL,
I MIGHT AS WELL.
He mumbles under his breath,
I'VE DONE EVERYTHING ELSE.
Tumbleweed says, WE FOUND THIS FANCY BOX!
Tumbleweed and Elsa says, OH! OH, OH.
Tumbleweed says, IT MUST BE TREASURE!
QUICK, QUICK!
WE GOTTA OPEN IT!
WE GOTTA OPEN IT!
Elsa says, OH, BOY!
Tumbleweed says, I'M SO EXCITED!
OH, I WONDER IF IT'S SEEDS!
INSIDE THERE WAS A PROJECTOR
WITH SOME OLD MOVIES.
The trunk opens.
[Creak]
Tumbleweed exclaims, A PROJECTOR!
Elsa exclaims, OLD MOVIES!
Tumbleweed says, LET'S GO SET IT UP!
THEY WERE MOVIES OF ELSA
WHEN SHE WAS JUST A BABY.
[Film reel plays]
Elsa says, LOOK, IT'S ME.
Tumbleweed says, YOU LOOK
A LOT YOUNGER THERE.
[Nervous laugh]
Tumbleweed says, NOT THAT YOU
LOOK OLD NOW.
NOTHING--
I WAS JUST SAYING--
Elsa says, JUST DROP IT.
Tumbleweed says, OKAY.
He explains, IT WAS HER GREAT-GRANDFATHER WHO
TOOK THEM, AND THEN HE BURIED THEM
IN A TIME CAPSULE
SO SHE WOULD FIND THEM
MUCH LATER.
The brown mouse says, THAT'S AN AMAZING STORY!
ESPECIALLY AFTER YOU GOT
THE FACTS IN ORDER.
Tumbleweed says, YEAH, WELL,
THAT WAS MY FRIDAY.
SO, ON SATURDAY--
The mouse says, WHAT?
Text in the book reads “The End.”
Tumbleweed says, IT TOOK ME FIVE TIMES
TO GET MY TIE RIGHT--
[Groan]
Tumbleweed says, BECAUSE THE DISHES
WERE DIRTY.
AND THEN I HAD
THE GARAGE DOOR OPEN
WHICH WAS CRAZY
'CAUSE IT WAS WINDY.
A red figure carries a TVO Kids logo.
The animated sun shines.
[Upbeat music plays]
Text reads “TVO Kids would liekt he thank all the teachers involved in the Power Hour of Learning as they continue to teach the children of Ontario from their homes.”

WELCOME TO TVOKIDS
POWER HOUR OF LEARNING.
TODAY’S PRIMARY LESSON.
SHADOWS, SCIENCE AND SYMMETRY.
Text reads “TVO Power Hour of Learning. Teacher Edition. Today’s Primary Lesson: Shadows, Science, and Symmetry!”
[Upbeat music plays]
A man with brown hair and eyes sits by a bookcase.
Teacher Joel says, HELLO, TVOKIDS, AND WELCOME
BACK TO ANOTHER EPISODE
OF POWER HOUR OF LEARNING.
Text reads “Primary one to three. Teacher Joel.”
MY NAME IS TEACHER JOEL, AND I'M
SO EXCITED TO BE HERE WITH YOU,
HANGING OUT FOR THE NEXT HOUR
FOR SOME LEARNING AND FUN.
DURING OUR TIME TOGETHER
AT HOME,
WE'RE GONNA BE CHECKING OUT
SOME AMAZING TVO SHOWS,
AND I'M GONNA BE
POPPING UP IN BETWEEN
TO TEACH YOU SOME LESSONS
THAT CONNECT DIRECTLY
TO WHAT YOU'RE SEEING
AND I'M GONNA GIVE YOU
SOME IDEAS
YOU CAN DO LATER IN THE DAY,
LATER IN THE WEEK,
TO KEEP YOUR LEARNING GOING.
IT'S GONNA BE A LOT OF FUN
AND I HOPE YOU'RE READY TO GO.
FOR TODAY'S LEARNING
YOU ARE GONNA NEED SOME PAPER.
MAYBE A NOTEBOOK,
SOMETHING YOU CAN WRITE ON,
AND OF COURSE,
SOMETHING YOU CAN WRITE WITH.
A PENCIL, A PEN, WE WILL BE
USING SOME MARKERS LATER,
AND FOR SOME SPECIAL ART
COMING UP,
YOU WILL NEED
A PAIR OF SCISSORS
THAT YOU CAN USE
SAFELY AT HOME.
SO, MAKE SURE YOU'VE GOT
YOUR FAMILY'S PERMISSION
TO SAFELY GRAB
THAT PAIR OF SCISSORS
THAT YOU CAN USE
FOR YOUR LEARNING.
GET YOURSELF IN A NICE,
COMFORTABLE SPACE
WHERE YOU CAN SEE ME
ON THE SCREEN,
HEAR MY VOICE
LOUD AND CLEAR,
AND WHEN YOU'RE READY,
LOOKING AND LISTENING,
WE CAN START THE LEARNING!
An animated sun shines.
Joel stands in a shadowy room beside a white wall.
He says, ALL RIGHT.
WE'RE READY
FOR OUR LEARNING,
AND YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED
I'VE MOVED
TO A DIFFERENT SPOT
OF MY HOME
FOR THIS FIRST PART
OF OUR LEARNING.
AND YOU MIGHT ALSO
BE THINKING,
"TEACHER JOEL,
IT'S A LITTLE DARK."
AND YOU'RE RIGHT.
I'M GONNA TURN ON
THIS LAMP BESIDE ME
AND I WANT YOU TO TAKE A LOOK
AT WHAT YOU NOTICE.
Joel turns on the lamp. It casts his shadow on the wall behind him.
THIS THING BEHIND ME
IS GIVING YOU A BIG CLUE
FOR WHAT WE ARE LEARNING
ABOUT TODAY.
WE'RE LEARNING ABOUT LIGHT,
AND...SHADOWS!
Joel and his shadow wave.
Joel says, THERE'S MY SHADOW SAYING HI.
I DON'T KNOW
IF YOU'VE EVER PLAYED
WITH LIGHT AND SHADOWS
BEFORE,
BUT IT CAN BE A LOT OF FUN,
AND IT REALLY HELPS US LEARN
ABOUT SOME SUPER BIG
SCIENCE IDEAS.
NOW, MY SHADOW WAVED HI TO YOU,
BUT I WANT TO SHOW YOU
HOW I CAN USE MY HANDS
TO MAKE SOME OTHER SHADOW SHAPES
ON THE WALL.
WITH TWO FINGERS,
I CAN WIGGLE
THOSE BUNNY EARS
AND MAKE
A SHADOW PUPPET BUNNY!
PRETTY COOL.
WITH TWO HANDS,
I CAN LINK MY THUMBS
TOGETHER LIKE WINGS
AND THERE YOU HAVE--
[Gasp]
He continues, --A FLUTTERING BIRD
SHADOW PUPPET.
AND HERE IS
MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE.
I PUT MY THUMB
AND THIS FIGURE TOGETHER,
LIKE A MOUTH.
I USE MY MIDDLE FINGER
BENT LIKE THAT
TO MAKE AN EYE,
AND MY LAST TWO FINGERS
GO UP LIKE EARS.
THERE'S LITTLE DOG!
AND IT CAN EVEN OPEN ITS MOUTH
AND BARK, BARK, BARK.
NOW, I TOLD YOU THAT PLAYING
WITH LIGHT AND SHADOWS
IS SUPER-DUPER FUN
AND IT'S A GREAT PART
OF OUR SCIENCE LEARNING.
SO, MAYBE LATER TODAY,
LIKE I'M DOING NOW,
YOU'LL USE A LAMP
IN YOUR HOUSE,
A FLASHLIGHT,
OR EVEN A NICE WINDOW
WHERE YOU GET LOTS OF SUNLIGHT
COMING IN
TO MAKE YOUR OWN
SHADOW PUPPET PLAY.
BUT FOR NOW, LET'S CHECK OUT
THIS EPISODE OF
BAMBOO LOVE
THAT'S GONNA TEACH US MORE
ABOUT LIGHT AND SHADOWS!
AND I'LL SEE YOU AFTER.
The animated sun shines in a blue sky.
An animated panda bear sits on text reading “Bamboo Love.”
[Gentle music plays]
A child narrator says,
HI, BAMBOO LOVE.
WHAT WOULD YOU LOVE
TO LEARN ABOUT TODAY?
SHADOWS.
Text reads “Shadows.”
A sand castle has been built close to a large pile of sand.
The narrator says, WHAT A GREAT-LOOKING
SAND CASTLE.
DID YOU MAKE IT?
[Shifting sand]
The narrator says, BAMBOO LOVE,
WHERE ARE YOU?
Bamboo Love’s head pokes out of the sand pile.
[Giggling]
The narrator says, OH, THERE YOU ARE!
YOU'RE SO FUNNY.
[Giggling]
Bamboo Love rolls head over heels across the sand. She holds up four orange and white conch shells.
The narrator says, THOSE ARE PRETTY SHELLS.
WHERE WILL THEY GO?
Bamboo Love puts a shell on top of four of the towers of the sand castle.
The narrator says, ONE, TWO, THREE, AND FOUR.
THAT LOOKS GOOD!
[Huh]
The narrator says, OH, I SEE.
YOU NEED ONE MORE SHELL
FOR THE BIG TOWER.
NO MORE SHELLS HERE?
Panda Love shakes her head, NN-MM.
The narrator asks, ARE YOU GOING TO LOOK
FOR SHELLS SOMEWHERE ELSE?
Bamboo Love nods, MM-HM.
[Footsteps crunching in sand]
Bamboo Love walks in the sand. Her shadow falls on the ground in front of her.
The narrator says, THAT'S YOUR SHADOW YOU SEE
IN FRONT OF YOU.
IT'S THERE BECAUSE
THE SUN IS SHINING ON YOU.
YOU ARE BLOCKING
THE SUN'S RAYS,
AND THAT MAKES
A DARK SHAPE
AND THAT'S CALLED
YOUR SHADOW.
Bamboo Love stands and dances.
[Giggling]
The narrator says, I'VE FORGOTTEN
WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR.
Bamboo Love points towards the sand castle.
[Chuckling]
The narrator says, OF COURSE!
YOU ARE LOOKING
FOR A SHELL.
[Giggling]
Bamboo laughs as she runs on the sand towards a beach umbrella. She pokes her head into the sand.
[Shifting sand]
Bamboo Love holds up an orange and white conch shell.
Bamboo Love says, OOH.
[Musical Tah dah]
The narrator says, HOORAY!
YOU FOUND A SHELL!
Bamboo Love laughs and front rolls across the sand. It gets dark around her. Bamboo Love looks confused as she holds two paws.
She says, HMM?
The narrator says, YES, I SEE.
YOUR SHADOW IS GONE.
A grey cloud moves in front of the sun.
The narrator says, THAT BIG CLOUD IS BLOCKING
THE LIGHT FROM THE SUN,
SO IT CAN'T MAKE
YOUR SHADOW.
[Grumble]
[Footsteps crunching sand]
Bamboo Love holds her chin as she walks. A drop of water hits her nose.
[Ding]
Bamboo Love says, AH!
The narrator says, AND NOW IT'S STARTING
TO RAIN.
[Falling rain]
Bamboo Love rolls over a puddle.
[Giggling]
The narrator says, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE HAVING FUN
SPLASHING IN THOSE PUDDLES.
[Splash]
Bamboo Love jumps in a puddle.
Bamboo Love looks towards the sand castle and says, HMM?
She runs to the castle and puts the shell on the tower. It sinks into the tower.
The narrator asks, IS THERE SOMETHING BIGGER
THAT MIGHT BLOCK THE RAIN?
Bamboo Love looks around, then gets excited.
Bamboo Love exclaims, OOH!
Bamboo puts the beach umbrella over the castle.
The narrator says, THE UMBRELLA!
IT IS BLOCKING THE RAIN.
GOOD JOB.
Bamboo Love exclaims, OOH!
Wind blows the umbrella out of Bamboo Love’s hands.
The narrator says, OH, NO!
WHAT A STRONG WIND!
WHAT WILL YOU DO NOW?
Bamboo Love says, HMM!
Bamboo Love digs around the base of the castle. Water drains away from the castle.
The narrator says, OH, GOOD DIGGING.
A duck lands on one of the turrets of the castle.
The narrator says, AND HERE COMES DUCK
TO PLAY WITH YOU.
Duck quacks.
[Quack]
The narrator says, WELL, EVEN THOUGH
THE SUN IS GONE
AND IT'S RAINING,
YOU'RE STILL HAVING
A GOOD PLAY TIME.
Bamboo Love nods and says, MM-HM.
The narrator says, WHAT A CLEVER
BAMBOO LOVE.
Bamboo Love and the duck jump in puddles.
The narrator says, TODAY, BAMBOO LOVE
LEARNED ABOUT SHADOWS.
SHE LEARNED THAT SHADOWS
ARE MADE BY LIGHT FROM THE SUN.
CREATING SHADOWS
AND WEATHER CAN BE FUN,
RAIN OR SHINE.
Logos appear for “TVO Kids,” “Radio Canada” and Knowledge:Kids.”
The animated sun shines.
Teacher Joel sits in front by his bookcase.
Text reads “Primary one to three. Teacher Joel.”
[Upbeat music plays]
NOW, THE REASON
I WANT TO START
WITH "WHAT DO WE WONDER
ABOUT LIGHTS AND SHADOWS?"
IS BECAUSE I AM
A BIG BELIEVER
THAT ASKING QUESTIONS
IS THE VERY BEST WAY TO LEARN.
AND TODAY WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT SCIENCE.
BUT ASKING QUESTIONS
FOR OUR LEARNING
IS SO IMPORTANT
IN ALL SORTS OF THINGS.
MATH, LANGUAGE, ART.
ALL SORTS OF LEARNING
COMES FROM ASKING QUESTIONS.
Joel holds up a piece of paper. Inside a bubble, text reads “ Who? What? Where? When? Why? How? Can? Do? Is? Might? Could?”
He says, SO, I'VE GOT SOME
QUESTION WORDS HERE.
I WANT YOU
TO LOOK CLOSELY AT THEM
AS WE START TO THINK
ABOUT WHAT WE WONDER
ABOUT LIGHTS AND SHADOWS.
YOU'LL SEE SOME WORDS HERE
THAT MAYBE YOU'VE SEEN BEFORE.
UP TOP WE'VE GOT
"WHO? WHAT? WHERE?
"WHEN? WHY?" AND "HOW?"
FOR REASONS YOU'VE
PROBABLY FIGURED OUT,
WE CALL THOSE
THE FIVE W'S.
AND OF COURSE
THERE'S ONE H.
NOW, THOSE ARE GREAT
STARTING WORDS
WHEN WE COME UP WITH
OUR QUESTIONS AND WONDERS.
SO, WE'RE THINKING
ABOUT SHADOWS.
WHERE DO SHADOWS
COME FROM?
WHY DOES MY SHADOW
MOVE THROUGHOUT THE DAY?
THESE ARE GREAT WONDERS.
AND IF YOU'RE THINKING
OF SOME OF THOSE SAME ONES,
YOU CAN START
TO JOT THEM DOWN NOW,
UNDER THE "WONDER" SECTION
OF YOUR KWL CHART.
BUT I WANT TO SHOW YOU SOME OF
THESE WORDS DOWN AT THE BOTTOM,
BECAUSE WHEN WE'RE
COMING UP WITH WONDERS,
WE WANNA COME UP
WITH THE DEEPEST,
JUICIEST QUESTIONS
WE CAN,
AND THAT'S WHERE THESE WORDS
COME IN HANDY.
"CAN?", "DO?",
"IS?" OR "ARE?"
"MIGHT?" AND "COULD?".
SO, THESE QUESTIONS
GO A LITTLE FURTHER
IN OUR SCIENTIFIC THINKING.
"COULD SHADOWS--"
DA-DA-DA-DA.
"DO SHADOWS--"
DA-DA-DA-DA-DA.
NOW, I'M NOT WONDERING
"DA-DA-DA-DA-DA".
I WANT YOU TO COME UP
WITH YOUR OWN WONDERS.
AND TO FURTHER INSPIRE YOU
TO DO THAT,
I WANT YOU TO TAKE A LOOK
AT WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN WE MATCH
SOME OF THESE TOP WORDS
UP WITH SOME
OF THE BOTTOM WORDS.
BECAUSE I TOLD YOU WE'RE GONNA
COME UP WITH THE DEEPEST,
JUICIEST QUESTIONS.
AND WE CAN PAIR
THESE WORDS TOGETHER
TO TAKE OUR WONDERS
EVEN FURTHER.
WHY MIGHT?
WHEN IS?
WHAT COULD?
JOT A FEW OF THESE
QUESTION WORDS DOWN
TO INSPIRE
YOUR SHADOW WONDERS.
AND TOGETHER,
LET'S CHECK OUT
THIS EPISODE
OF WACKY WORD SONGS
TO HELP US THINK
A LITTLE MORE
ABOUT THESE SUPER-DUPER
IMPORTANT QUESTION WORDS.
AND I'LL SEE YOU AFTER.
The animated yellow sun rises in a blue sky.
Letters spelling “Wacky” bounce. A blue curtain closes and “Wacky Word Songs” appears on the curtain.

ARE QUESTIONS,
AND WHEN YOU
WRITE A QUESTION,
YOU ALWAYS END IT
WITH A QUESTION MARK.
[Slide whistle]
Text reads “Question Mark.” A question mark appears beside Zoey.
Zoey asks, CHECK THIS OUT?
Zoey holds a large yellow question mark in front of her as she stands on a stage.

QUESTION MARK
I ASK WHO? WHAT? WHY? WHERE?
A line of Zoeys sings, WHO? WHAT? WHY? WHERE?
A picture of a bowl filled with apple sauce appears beside Zoey.
Zoey sings, WHO ATE ALL
OF THE APPLE SAUCE?
WHAT HAPPENED TO MY HAIR?
WHY DO PARROTS
LIKE TO STARE?
SHOULD MY CAT
WEAR UNDERWEAR?
The line of Zoeys sings, SHOULD MY CAT WEAR
UNDERWEAR?
Zoey sings, I MAY DOUBT
IN QUESTION MARK
AND SOMETIMES
SHOW SURPRISE
IF I STAND HERE
FOR A JIFFY
Zoey sings, MY APPLESAUCE
WAS EATEN BY BEARS?
A bear walks on a screen behind Zoey.
The line of Zoeys sings, MY APPLESAUCE
WAS EATEN BY BEARS
Zoey sings, I'M A USEFUL
QUESTION MARK
YOU NEED ME
WHEN YOU ASK
WHEN YOU'RE SKEPTICAL
OR JUST SURPRISED
I MANAGE ALL THOSE TASKS
I MANAGE ALL THOSE TASKS
Zoey stands in the attic.
She asks, IS THIS THE END?
DID YOU LIKE THE SONG?
A question mark appears and disappears.
[Slide whistle, pop]
Zoey says, SO MANY QUESTIONS,
SO MANY WAYS
TO USE A QUESTION MARK.
WELL, SEE YOU NEXT TIME.
OR SHOULD I SAY,
SEE YOU NEXT TIME?
A question mark appears and disappears.
[Slide whistle, pop]
The TVO Kids logo appears.
[Giggling]
[Creak]
The logo for Apartment Eleven Productions appears.
The animated sun shines.
Teacher Joel sits by his bookcase.
Text reads “Primary one to three. Teacher Joel.”
[Upbeat music plays]
Joel says, WELCOME BACK,
SHADOW SCIENTISTS.
I HOPE THAT EPISODE GAVE YOU
SOME MORE IDEAS
FOR YOUR QUESTION.
REMEMBER, I TOLD YOU A HUGE PART
OF SCIENCE LEARNING
IS STARTING WITH
WHAT WE KNOW
BUT IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO COME UP
WITH SOME QUESTIONS.
WHAT DO WE WANT
TO DISCOVER?
AND NEXT IN OUR SCIENCE LEARNING
COMES THE FUN PART.
WE GET TO EXPLORE.
AND WHEN SCIENTISTS
ARE EXPLORING,
THEY MAKE
CAREFUL OBSERVATIONS.
THEY TALK ABOUT
THINGS THEY SEE,
THEY TALK ABOUT
THINGS THEY NOTICE.
AND THOSE OBSERVATIONS
HELP TO GIVE THEM
NEW INFORMATION.
AS SCIENTISTS, WE CAN
GET NEW OBSERVATIONS
AND NEW INFORMATION
FROM BOOKS, FROM VIDEOS,
FROM RESEARCH
ON THE INTERNET,
OR MY PERSONAL FAVOURITE
AS A KINDERGARTEN TEACHER,
HANDS-ON EXPLORATION.
AND LATER TODAY
I'M GONNA CHALLENGE YOU
TO DO SOME HANDS-ON
EXPLORATION AT HOME
ALL ABOUT
LIGHT AND SHADOWS.
AND YOU'RE GONNA USE
WHAT YOU OBSERVE
THROUGH THAT
HANDS-ON OBSERVATION
AND HANDS-ON EXPLORATION
TO FILL IN THE L
OF YOUR CHART.
Joel holds up a piece of paper with three empty columns. The column headings read “Know?”, “Wonder?” and “Learn.”
Joel asks, WHAT DID YOU LEARN
ABOUT LIGHT AND SHADOWS
THROUGH YOUR
EXPERIMENTATION?
NOW, AT THE START
OF THE EPISODE,
I SHOWED YOU HOW I WAS USING
A LAMP IN MY HOUSE
TO EXPLORE
LIGHT AND SHADOWS.
YOU MIGHT HAVE ANOTHER TOOL
AT HOME
THAT'S GREAT
FOR LIGHT AND SHADOWS.
YOU HOLD IT IN YOUR HAND,
PRESS A LITTLE BUTTON.
I'M TALKING
ABOUT A FLASHLIGHT.
IF YOU'VE GOT
A FLASHLIGHT,
YOU'LL DEFINITELY WANNA
GRAB THAT LATER
TO EXPLORE
LIGHT AND SHADOWS.
NOW, IF YOU DON'T HAVE ONE,
DON'T WORRY,
BECAUSE IN THIS WORLD WE HAVE A
VERY, VERY, VERY BRIGHT LIGHT,
A SUPER-CHARGED
BRIGHT FLASHLIGHT
THAT HELPS US LEARN
ABOUT SHADOWS.
IT'S NOT IN OUR HOUSES,
IT'S OUTSIDE.
I'M TALKING ABOUT THE SUN!
LATER TODAY I CHALLENGE YOU
TO HEAD OUTSIDE,
BRING YOUR SCIENCE NOTEBOOK,
BRING A PENCIL,
BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA BE
JOTTING DOWN
SOME AMAZING
OBSERVATION NOTES
WHEN YOU EXPLORE THE SCIENCE
OF LIGHT AND SHADOWS
OUTSIDE WITH THE SUN.
I KNOW YOU'RE GONNA COME UP
WITH SOME AMAZING THINGS.
BUT BEFORE WE HEAD OUTSIDE,
YOU'RE GONNA WANNA
STAY WHERE YOU ARE
BECAUSE WE'VE GOT AN AMAZING
EPISODE OF ODD SQUAD
ALL ABOUT SHADOWS
AND SOME MATH.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT WE
LEARN AND I'LL SEE YOU AFTER.
The animated sun appears.
[Whee!]
A “TVO Kids” logo appears beside a “Sinking Ship Entertainment” logo.
Text reads “Original.”
[Giggling]
[Dramatic music plays]
Agent Opal stand with her arms crossed over her navy blue Odd Squad uniform jacket. She wears a white dress shirt and red tie under the jacket. Opal’s long, black hair falls down her back.
Opal says,
MY NAME IS AGENT OPAL.
[Creak]
Omar, Orla and Oswald stand together.
Omar has short black hair.
Orla wears her black hair in two long braids.
Oswald has red hair.
All three wear the Odd Squad uniform.
Opal says, THESE ARE MY PARTNERS
OMAR, ORLA, AND OSWALD.
[Creak]
Oswald, Orla, Omar and Opal smile as they wear black moustaches.
Opal says, THIS IS US WEARING MOUSTACHES.
[Creak]
Rockets engines blast as the Odd Squad Mobile Unit van flies across a cloudy sky.
Opal says, WE TRAVEL THE WORLD
INVESTIGATING ANYTHING STRANGE,
WEIRD, AND ESPECIALLY ODD.
[Creak, creak, creak]
A dolphin-shaped waiter in a tuxedo watches as a smiling man looks at a menu.
Opal says, OUR JOB IS TO PUT THINGS
RIGHT AGAIN.
The van accelerates.
All the agents yell, WHOA!
[Whoosh]
[Exciting music plays]
Oswald dances.
[Yelling]
Balloons float around Opal. Omar pops them. Orla flips to avoid a laser.
[Pop, pop, pop]
The agents hold up shields and yell, SHIELDS UP!
Agents ski down a snowy hill.
[Skis cutting through snow]
Opal asks,WHO DO WE WORK FOR?
WE WORK FOR ODD SQUAD.
“Odd Squad. Created by Tim McKeon and Adam Peltzman.”
The words “Odd Squad in the Shadows” are stamped on a file folder.
A girls says, ODD SQUAD IN THE SHADOWS.
The mobile unit van flies through the sky.
A computer announces,
AGENTS, YOU HAVE AN INCOMING
CALL FROM THE BIG O.
Opal, Omar, Orla and Oswald walk to a screen.
The Big O says, THERE YOU FOUR ARE.
She fires crackling beams at alien creatures.
[Zap, creatures chittering]
Opal asks, BIG O,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Big O says, I'M ON VACATION IN
THE GREAT PLAINS OF ODD.
[Chitter, zap]
Oswald says, BUT THAT'S ONE OF THE ODDEST
PLACES IN THE WORLD.
Big O says, EXACTLY.
THOUGHT I'D TAKE IT EASY.
[Zap, chittering]
Orla says, I UNDERSTAND COMPLETELY.
Big O says, ON TO BUSINESS.
SOMETHING VERY ODD HAS HAPPENED
IN PINEHURST, NORTH CAROLINA.
[Beep, beep]
Big O clicks a device and a digital map appears. An orange dot indicates Pinehurst.
Big O says, THE BIRTHPLACE
OF MINIATURE GOLF.
THE MS. O IN PINEHURST WILL BE
ABLE TO TELL YOU MORE
AT THEIR LOCAL HEADQUARTERS.
Omar says, WE'RE ON IT, BIG O!
Big O says, GREAT.
NOW I'LL GET BACK TO RELAXING.
[Chittering]
Oswald says, OKAY.
[Boom, whoosh]
A girl with long blonde hair wears a beret with a three wobbling on the top. She putts a golf ball into a hole on a mini green.
The girl says, THERE YOU FOUR ARE!
The agents mutter, WOW!
IMPRESSIVE!
AMAZING!
COOL!
The girl says, WELCOME TO PINEHURST.
AS YOU MIGHT'VE NOTICED,
WE'RE A BIG GOLF TOWN.
AND TODAY
IS A BIG GOLF DAY.
OUR THIRD ANNUAL ODD SQUAD
MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT.
The girl points to the wobbling three over her beret.
Opal says, I'M STILL NOT SURE
WHY WE'RE HERE.
The girl says, EVERY YEAR,
SOMETHING GOES WRONG
BECAUSE ALL THE AGENTS
ARE PLAYING GOLF
AND NOBODY'S
STOPPING ODDNESS.
HERE'S A PICTURE FROM OUR
SECOND ANNUAL TOURNAMENT.
She points a remote at a screen.
[Click]
A picture shows dragons fly over a mini golf course. One breathes fire at Odd Squad agents.
Omar says, OH!
[Gasping]
The girl says, AND OUR FIRST
ANNUAL TOURNAMENT.
[Click]
A picture shows a line of Odd Squad Agents holding putters.
Orla asks, WHAT WAS
THE PROBLEM THERE?
The girl says, INVISIBLE CREATURES.
THAT WAS BEFORE
WE REALIZED IT.
The girl clicks and a picture shows the same agents screaming.
She says, THAT'S AFTER.
The mobile unit agents nod and say, THAT MAKES SENSE.
I SEE.
The girl says, ANYWAY, WE NEED YOU
TO FOCUS ON ODDNESS
WHILE WE FOCUS ON GOLF.
AND THERE'S ALREADY
A VILLAIN
MAKING THINGS DISAPPEAR
AROUND TOWN TODAY!
HERE'S THE EVIDENCE
WE'VE COLLECTED SO FAR.
The girl holds a red file folder.
She asks, WHO'S IN CHARGE?
Opal says, ACTUALLY, WE'VE NEVER
TALKED ABOUT THAT,
BUT I SUPPOSE
IF WE WERE TO CHOOSE,
I WOULD SAY--
Opal, Omar, Orla and Oswald say,
--I AM.
The girl asks, WELL, WHICH ONE IS IT?
Orla says, WELL, IN THE OLD
ODD SQUAD DAYS,
WE HAD A WAY
TO SETTLE ARGUMENTS
ABOUT WHO WAS
IN CHARGE.
[Ding]
Orla holds a wooden box.
She declares, WHOEVER CATCHES THE MOST
SCORPIONS IS THE LEADER.
Omar, Opal and Oswald shout,
NO! NO! NO!
Opal says, ORLA, FINE!
YOU CAN BE THE LEADER!
The girl gives Orla the file folder.
Omar says, WELL, IN THAT CASE,
I GUESS I'LL JUST
STEP AWAY
TO FIND A NORTH
CAROLINA SOUVENIR.
Omar turns and walks out of the office.
Orla says, AND WE SHALL FIND
THIS VILLAIN
MAKING THINGS DISAPPEAR,
MS. O.
The blonde-haired Ms. O says, PLEASE, CALL ME
NORTH CAROLINA MS. O.
[Horn honks]
North Carolina Ms. O says, THAT'S MY RIDE.
A young man sits at the steering wheel of a white electric golf cart.
Oswald says, NICE.
North Carolina Ms. O says, BYE
North Carolina Ms. O sits down beside the driver and waves.
Orla looks at the file. She bangs her fist on a pile of books.
Orla says, SOLVED IT!
Oswald ask, HOW?!
Opal asks, EXCUSE ME?
Orla says, THE VILLAIN HAS ALREADY
MADE THREE THINGS DISAPPEAR.
A STREET SIGN,
A PAINTING, AND A HOUSE.
AND LIKE ALL VILLAINS,
THIS ONE MUST BE
WORKING IN A PATTERN.
SOMETHING THAT REPEATS.
AND THIS VILLAIN IS WORKING
IN A VERY SIMPLE PATTERN.
ALL THESE THINGS
ARE RED.
IT IS A COLOUR PATTERN.
SHALL WE RELEASE
THE CELEBRATION SCORPIONS?
Opal says, NO!
Oswald, YEAH, LET'S SKIP
THAT STEP.
Orla says, FINE, THEN.
An agent with short black hair wears a white lab coat and a green bowtie.
Orla shouts, YOU THERE!
IN THE WHITE COAT.
ARE THERE ANY VILLAINS
THAT LIKE RED IN THIS TOWN?
The agent with the green bow tie says, YES. PINEHURST HAS
A VILLAIN NAMED RED FRED.
Orla commands, THEN, AS YOUR LEADER,
I ORDER YOU
TO TAKE US TO HIM!
The agent wearing the bow tie says, UH-- I DON'T HAVE A CAR.
Opal says, WE HAVE A VAN.
WE'LL TAKE IT
FROM HERE.
The agent walks away from Orla.
Oswald says, WAIT.
SHOULD WE GO GET OMAR?
[Tense music plays]
Opal says, HE IS LOOKING
FOR HIS SOUVENIR.
YOU WANNA BE THE ONE
TO TELL HIM HE HAS TO GO?
Oswald says, YEAH, I'M SURE
HE'LL BE FINE.
Opal says, GOOD CHOICE.
[Dramatic music plays]
Omar walks past doors.
He says, DEVILED EGG ROOM, NOPE.
GOLF ROOM?
NN-MM-MM.
AN OFFICE SUPPLY ROOM!
THERE'S GOTTA BE
A PENCIL IN HERE
WITH "NORTH CAROLINA"
WRITTEN ALL OVER IT.
Omar opens a door covered with file holders and sticky notes.
[Creak]
He says, HELLO?
Omar peers into the dark room. He turns on a light.
[Flick]
Two agents look surprised.
A tall boy with short curly hair say, CLOSE THE DOOR!
Omar closes the door.
[Creak, bang]
The tall boy asks, WHO ARE YOU?
Omar answers, I'M AGENT OMAR,
ODD SQUAD MOBILE UNIT.
WHO ARE YOU?
The tall boy says, WE ARE A SHADOW ORGANIZATION
WORKING WITHIN ODD SQUAD.
The tall boy looks at three other agents standing beside him. A girl has her black hair pulled away from her face. A boy has short dark hair. The girl standing on the end of the row of agents wears her hair in a bun.
Omar says, WHOA! DOES THAT MEAN THAT YOU'RE
TRYING TO TAKE DOWN ODD SQUAD?
The tall boy says, WHAT? NO.
WE'RE TRYING
TO MAKE A SHADOW.
The girl with the bun says, YEAH, WE JUST WANTED TO PUT ON
A SHADOW PUPPET SHOW
FOR THE MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT.
Omar nods.
The girl with dark hair says, WE'VE BEEN MEETING
EVERY WEEK IN THE DARK
FOR TWO MONTHS,
BUT WE HAVEN'T MADE
ONE SHADOW YET.
Omar says, YOU KNOW THAT YOU NEED A LIGHT
TO MAKE A SHADOW, RIGHT?
The girl with black hair asks, DID HE SAY LIGHT?
The boy with short hair says, TELL US MORE.
Omar explains, YOU NEED TWO THINGS
TO MAKE A SHADOW-
A LIGHT SOURCE
AND AN OBJECT.
Omar holds up a flashlight.
He says, HERE'S YOUR
LIGHT SOURCE.
JUST SHINE IT
ON THE WALL.
Omar picks up a stapler.
He says, HERE'S YOUR OBJECT.
NOW, THE SHADOW
IS MADE ON THE WALL
BECAUSE THE OBJECT
BLOCKS PART OF THE LIGHT
FROM THE LIGHT SOURCE.
WATCH!
[Tapping stapler]
The agents say, WHOA!
[Tapping]
Omar HI, I'M MR. STAPLER.
I LIKE TO STAPLE THINGS.
[Laughing]
The tall boy says, YOU'RE THE ONE
WE'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR.
WILL YOU TEACH US
YOUR WAYS?
The boy with short hair says, AND THEN WE CAN DAZZLE EVERYBODY
AT THE GOLF TOURNAMENT
WITH A SHADOW PUPPET SHOW!
Omar says, I DON'T KNOW.
The agents bow and chant,
ALL HAIL THE SHADOW KING!
ALL HAIL THE SHADOW KING!
Omar says, WELL, I GUESS I COULD STAY
FOR A BIT.
Omar smiles proudly.
The agents say, YES! YEAH.
[Clapping]
Orla, Oswald and Opal walk up white front porch leading to a bright red house.
[Door knocker knock]
A man in a red tee-shirt says, ODD SQUAD.
Orla says, RED FRED. WE KNOW YOU'VE BEEN
STEALING ALL THINGS RED.
The man says, I'M NOT RED FRED.
I'M CRIMSON CARL!
[Birds chirp]
Carl says, I DON'T STEAL RED THINGS
BECAUSE RED AND CRIMSON
ARE TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
CRIMSON HAS A LITTLE MORE
BLUISH-PURPLE IN IT.
Orla says, WE WISH TO INVESTIGATE
YOUR HOUSE OF LIES!
Orla, Oswald and Opal push past Crimson Carl.
Opal yells, LET US IN!
Orla says, AHA!
A man wearing red sunglasses holds a red cushion in front of his face.
Orla says, I SEE YOU'RE HIDING
RED FRED.
Crimson Carl says, THAT'S RUBY ROBBY.
Orla points at a man wearing a red headband.
She says, THEN YOU ARE RED FRED!
Carl say, VERMILLION VINCE.
HOW ARE YOU GUYS
NOT SEEING THIS?
Orla points to a blonde-haired woman, THEN IT IS YOU!
Carl says, ROSE ROSE.
DO I NEED TO PULL OUT
THE COLOUR SWATCHES?
YOU CAN TELL FROM
THE SLIGHT PINKISH HUE!
Opal says, AND THE ROSES.
Carl says, RIGHT.
Orla points at a man wearing a blue helmet and says, YOU!
Carl says, TURQUOISE TIM.
NOT EVEN CLOSE TO RED.
[Phone ringtone plays Odd Squad theme music]
Orla says, I AM ORLA,
LEADER OF OSMU.
North Carolina Ms. O holds a golf putter as she walks past tables covered with white table clothes and green banners.
North Carolina Ms. O says, SOMETHING ELSE JUST DISAPPEARED!
Oral says, THAT CANNOT BE.
WE ARE AT THE RED HOUSE
WITH ALL THE RED VILLAINS.
North Carolina Ms. O says, NOBODY THERE DID THIS.
THE MISSING THING
IS A GREEN RUG
FROM A FURNITURE STORE.
I'LL SEND A PICTURE.
PLEASE SOLVE THIS.
I CAN'T START MY TOURNAMENT
WITH THIS VILLAIN ON THE LOOSE.
Orla snaps her cellphone shut.
[Snap]
[Sigh]
Orla says, IT IS NOT A COLOUR PATTERN.
I QUIT THE ROLE AS LEADER.
Orla kneels and holds out the red file folder.
Oswald takes it and says, SURE. I GUESS I CAN
GIVE IT A WHIRL.
LET'S GO
TO THE VAN.
Opal shrugs and follows Oswald and Orla.
Carl waves.
Carl says, GOOD LUCK, ODD SQUAD!
THAT DIDN'T SOUND RIGHT.
He sarcastically repeats,
GOOD LUCK, ODD SQUAD!
HEH. YEAH.
THAT WAS BETTER.
[Grinding]
[Inspiring music plays]
Omar sits on a chair. The back of the chair is lined with pink, blue, green and yellow paper. Rulers and pencils poke out of the sides of the back of the chair.
Omar says, ROYAL SUBJECTS,
BRING ME SOMETHING
TO MAKE SHADOWS WITH.
PLEASE?
The tall boy says, YOUR MAJESTY,
I HUMBLY PRESENT YOU
THIS GLASS UNICORN.
Omar says, I CANNOT MAKE SHADOWS
WITH THIS.
IT'S TRANSPARENT.
The boy asks, WHAT DID YOU CALL IT?
Omar says, TRANSPARENT.
YOU CAN SEE THROUGH IT,
WHICH MEANS LIGHT
GOES THROUGH IT.
Omar uses a flashlight to shine light through the unicorn.
[Click, click]
He says, WITHOUT SOMETHING
TO BLOCK THE LIGHT,
A SHADOW
CANNOT BE MADE.
YOU!
WHAT HAVE YOU
BROUGHT ME?
The girl with the bun kneels in front of Omar.
She says, YOUR HIGHNESS,
I HAVE BROUGHT YOU
NOTHIN' BUT THIS SOILED RAG.
Omar snatches the rag from her hands.
Omar says, YES! IT'S PERFECT!
THIS RAG IS OPAQUE.
The girl says, I DO NOT KNOW
WHAT THAT MEANS,
BUT THANKS
FOR SAYIN' SO!
Omar explains, OPAQUE MEANS THAT LIGHT
CANNOT PASS THROUGH.
IT BLOCKS THE LIGHT,
WHICH CREATES A--
SHADOW!
Omar flaps the rag in front of the flashlight and creates a shadow of flying bird.
The girl with the bun says, IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL!
Beside her, the boy with short hair wipes his eyes.
Omar says, WEEP. I SHALL CONTINUE
MY LESSON WHILE YOU WEEP.
The tall boy says, YOU'LL BE WEEPING
WHEN I HAVE MY REVENGE.
Omar asks, WHAT WAS THAT, ODIN?
Odin says, NOTHIN', YOUR HIGHNESS.
Odin mumbles, NOTHIN' BUT SWEET,
SWEET REVENGE.
[Whoosh]
Oswald, Opal and Orla walk towards a table with three stacks of paper on it.
Oswald says, I STUDIED ALL THE DATA.
PLEASE TURN TO THE DIAGRAM
ON PAGE THIRTY-ONE.
[Pages turn]
Opal asks, HOW DID YOU GET
THESE PRINTOUTS SO FAST?
Oswald says, I KNOW A GUY.
AS YOU SEE IN FIGURE NINE-A,
EACH OF THE OBJECTS STOLEN
IS A DIFFERENT SHAPE.
FIRST A TRIANGLE,
THEN A SQUARE,
THEN A PENTAGON,
THEN THIS RUG-
A HEXAGON,
OR A SIX-SIDED SHAPE.
Orla says, SO, IT'S A SHAPES PATTERN.
Oswald explains, AN ADDING SIDES PATTERN
TO BE SPECIFIC.
Opal says, THE FIRST OBJECT
HAS THREE SIDES.
THEN FOUR SIDES,
THEN FIVE,
SIX.
Oswald says, SO, I PREDICT THE NEXT THING
THAT WILL BE STOLEN
WILL BE A
SEVEN-SIDED SHAPE.
Orla says, SO WE MUST FIND A VILLAIN
THAT LIKES TO ADD SIDES.
Oswald says, VAN COMPUTER,
IS THERE ANYONE IN TOWN
WITH A NAME LIKE "SIDES"?
[Beeping]
The computer says,
MR. SIDES IS AT TWENTY-ONE MAIN STREET.
Oswald says, PLEASE BRING US
THERE, THEN.
Orla asks, WHAT IS IN THE REST
OF THIS BOOK?
[Pages turn]
Oswald says, PICTURES OF KITTENS
JUST TO FILL IT IN.
They all exclaim, AWW! AWW!
THEY'RE PLAYING!
SO CUTE.
[Whoosh, bang]
A man scoops mashed potatoes out of a container.
[Squishing]
Oswald, Orla and Opal shout,
ODD SQUAD, ODD SQUAD,
STOP RIGHT THERE!
Oswald says, MR. SIDES,
WE KNOW YOU'RE THE VILLAIN
STEALING THINGS AROUND TOWN!
Mr. Sides says, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
VILLAIN? I'M JUST THE HONEST OWNER
OF A RESTAURANT
WHICH SERVES SIDES
OF ALL KINDS!
Orla says, YOU MEAN
SIDES OF SHAPES?
LIKE HEXAGONS?
Mr. Sides says, NO, NO, NO,
SIDE DISHES,
LIKE MASHED POTATOES
AND GUACAMOLE,
RICE PILAF,
THAT SORTA THING.
Opal asks, WAIT- YOU DON'T SERVE ANY
MAIN DISHES LIKE HAMBURGERS?
Mr. Sides says, NO, EVERYONE ELSE DOES THAT.
I'M JUST SIDES.
THAT'S MY THING.
IF YOU'RE HUNGRY, MIGHT I SUGGEST
THE ALL SIDES SPECTACULAR?
YOU CAN CHOOSE ANY THREE SIDES,
THEN YOU CHOOSE ANY TWO SIDES
TO GO AS SIDES TO THOSE SIDES.
Orla says, I DO NOT THINK
HE IS THE VILLAIN.
Mr. Sides says, NO, NO, I'M THE VICTIM!
MY RESTAURANT USED TO
HAVE FIVE GOLD STARS
ON THAT THERE POSTER.
SEE? THEY'RE GONE!
Mr. Sides points to a poster with five star-shaped holes in the top.
Oswald says, WAIT!
THOSE STARS
HAD TEN SIDES EACH.
TO FIT THE ADDING
SIDES PATTERN,
THE NEXT THING STOLEN
SHOULD'VE HAD SEVEN SIDES.
MY THEORY WAS WRONG.
I'M RETIRING AS LEADER.
[Bell Dings]
North Carolina Ms. O stands in the restaurant.
[Dramatic music plays]
North Carolina Ms. O says, THERE YOU FOUR ARE!
WAIT A MINUTE,
THERE'S ONLY THREE NOW.
Opal says, OMAR'S LOOKING
FOR A SOUVENIR.
North Carolina Ms. O says, THE TOURNAMENT
IS ABOUT THE BEGIN.
HAVE YOU SOLVED THIS THING YET?
Opal admits, NOT YET.
North Carolina Ms. O says, WELL, THAT DOES IT.
THE THIRD ANNUAL ODD SQUAD
MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT IS CANCELLED.
Mr. Sides says, AND I'M MR. SIDES!
Opal, Orla and Oswald say, WE KNOW!
Mr. Sides says, I KNOW, BUT THERE IS
SOMEONE NEW HERE NOW,
SO I WAS JUST SAYING IT FOR HER.
[Whoosh]
An animated rabbit with antlers in the Odd Squad logo says, TO BE CONTINUED.
[Official sounding music plays]
The animated rabbit roars.
[Roar]
[Typing]
Text reads , “Odd squad training video number six hundred and sixty-five. Know your buttons.”
A girl’s voice says, “ODD SQUAD TRAINING VIDEO NUMBER SIX HUNDRED AND SIXTY-FIVE. KNOW YOUR BUTTONS.”
Omar says, AGENT OMAR HERE.
YOU KNOW,
BEING A PART OF ODD SQUAD
MEANS THAT THERE'S
HIGH TECH BUTTONS EVERYWHERE.
ON YOUR SUIT,
ON YOUR GADGETS,
AND IN OUR CASE,
IN THE VAN.
AND IT'S IMPORTANT
TO KNOW HOW THEY WORK.
THERE ARE SO MANY BUTTONS!
WE'RE STILL DISCOVERING
NEW ONES EVERY DAY.
Omar holds up a thick book.
[Shuffle]
Omar continues, THERE'S AN
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
THAT EXPLAINS
WHAT EACH ONE DOES.
THIS IS PART ONE.
OF NINTY-THREE.
SO, I'VE PERFECTED A FASTER WAY
TO FIGURE THEM OUT.
PRESS A BUTTON
AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
LIKE THIS!
Omar presses a button.
[Beep]
A drawer rolls open and reveals a mini golf putt.
[Rolling sound]
Omar says, MINI-GOLF. COOL!
LET'S TRY
ANOTHER BUTTON.
Omar pushes another button as he says, BOOM.
[Beep]
A wall behind Omar turns, revealing secret shelves of candy.
Omar says, HMM.
I GUESS THAT BUTTON
DOESN'T DO ANYTHING.
HOW ABOUT--
Omar pushes a button. Lights flash.
[Beep]
[Alarm blares]
Omar asks, WAIT. WHAT'S HAPPENING?!
The van computer says,
SELF-DESTRUCT MODE ACTIVATED.
VAN WILL TURN INTO A PILE
OF PUDDING IN THIRTY SECONDS.
Omar says, OH, PUDDING! MMM.
WAIT, WHAT?
HOW DO I TURN THIS THING OFF?
The computer says, PRESS THE BUTTON AGAIN
WHEN THE LIGHT FLASHES RED.
Omar says, OKAY, RED, GOT IT.
OKAY.
Omar looks up at the lights as they flash and pushes the button.
Omar says, RE-- UGH, NO.
[Buzz]
Omar says, RED. AGH!
[Buzz]
He says, THE LIGHTS ARE FLASHING
TOO FAST!
The computer says, FIFTEEN SECONDS REMAINING.
Omar says, HOLD ON.
I THINK THAT THERE'S A PATTERN.
IF I CAN FIGURE OUT THE
REPEATING PATTERN OF THE LIGHTS,
I CAN PREDICT
WHEN IT'LL FLASH RED.
BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW, RED.
BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW, RED.
I THINK THAT
THAT'S THE PATTERN!
BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW, RED!
AND THEN IT REPEATS.
SO, RED COMES AFTER YELLOW.
BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW--
RED!
[Beeping]
The computer says, SELF-DESTRUCT
MODE DEACTIVATED.
Omar says, OKAY.
WELL, I'VE LEARNED
AN IMPORTANT LESSON.
NEVER PUSH A BUTTON WITHOUT
READING THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL.
[Book opens]
THERE'S A CANDY WALL?!
The animated rabbit says, AND NOW,
THE REST OF THE STORY.
Opal pleads, PLEASE, JUST GIVE US
A LITTLE MORE TIME
TO FIND THE VILLAIN, MS. O!
North Carolina Ms. O says, IT'S NORTH CAROLINA MS. O,
AND I CAN'T.
Opal says, BUT I'M IN CHARGE NOW,
SO THINGS WILL GO
MUCH SMOOTHER.
Orla says, YOU REALIZE
WE ARE RIGHT HERE.
Oswald says, YEAH.
North Carolina Ms. O says, SORRY, OPAL, BUT THERE'S
JUST NO MORE TIME.
LOOK.
North Carolina Ms. O takes out a tablet and shows a map with red ‘X’’s on it.
North Carolina Ms. O says,
THE VILLAIN HAS BEEN TAKING
STUFF ALL OVER TOWN,
AND THE ONLY PLACE LEFT
IS THE GOLF COURSE
AND I CAN'T TAKE THAT RISK.
Opal says, WAIT. IF THE VILLAIN
STRUCK MORE PLACES,
THAT'S MORE INFORMATION
FOR OUR PATTERN!
WHAT ELSE DISAPPEARED?
[Ding]
North Carolina Ms. O takes out a purple heart-shaped piece of construction paper.
North Carolina Ms. O says, JUST THESE
"I HEART GOLF" FLYERS.
I CUT THEM OUT MYSELF SO THEY'D
BE THE SAME ON BOTH SIDES.
Opal says, I HAVE AN IDEA.
[Dramatic music plays]
Opal says, NORTH CAROLINA MS. O,
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
Mr Sides leans towards North Carolina Ms. O.
He says, PLEASE ORDER SOME SIDES.
THIS WAS A TERRIBLE
BUSINESS IDEA.
North Carolina Ms. O says, I'LL HAVE THE
CHOCOLATE CHIPS!
Mr. Sides says, YES!
BACK IN BUSINESS!
[Whoosh]
Paper trees cast a forest-like shadow on a wall.
Omar says, OOOH!
VERY NICE.
THEY'LL BE PERFECT FOR
THE GOLF TOURNAMENT SHOW.
Odin puts his fingers together.
He asks, HOW ABOUT THIS BIRD?
The other agents mutter excitedly.
Omar says, YES!
YOUR VERY OWN HAND
CAN BE USED TO MAKE A SHADOW,
SINCE IT'S OPAQUE
AND YOU CAN'T SEE THROUGH IT.
EXCELLENT WORK, ODIN.
Odin says, THEN MAYBE I WILL BE SHADOW KING.
[Gasping]
A girl says, WHAT?
Omar says,
DID I HEAR A CHALLENGE?
WHY SHOULD YOU BE KING?
Odin says, I'VE BEEN IN THIS ROOM
WAY LONGER.
Omar says, I HAVE TAUGHT YOU
EVERYTHING YOU KNOW.
Odin says, YOU'LL WISH
THAT YOU HADN'T.
I CHALLENGE YOU
TO A SHADOW DUEL.
THE WINNER
TAKES THE THRONE.
[Gasping]
A girl exclaims, WHAT?
Omar asks, AND THE LOSER?
Odin says, MUST SAY, "HEY, GOOD JOB,"
TO THE WINNER.
AND HE MUST MEAN IT.
Omar says, CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.
CHOOSE YOUR
LIGHT SOURCE WISELY.
Omar and Odin hold large red flashlights.
[Dramatic music plays]
[Whoosh]
Opal, Oswald and Orla sit inside the van.
Opal says, LOOK.
WHEN I FOLD
THIS HEART FLYER IN HALF,
YOU CAN SEE THAT BOTH HALVES
ARE EXACTLY THE SAME.
Oswald says, AND THAT'S IMPORTANT
BECAUSE...
He whispers, I’M PAUSING SO YOU TELL ME!
Opal says, OH. IT'S SYMMETRICAL.
THE SAME
ON BOTH SIDES.
VAN COMPUTER, SHOW ME ALL THE
THINGS THAT WERE STOLEN TODAY.
[Beeping]
Opal says, NOW, LET'S SEE A VERTICAL LINE
STRAIGHT UP AND DOWN
THROUGH THE MIDDLE
OF EACH SHAPE.
IF THINGS ARE
EXACTLY THE SAME
ON BOTH SIDES
OF THE LINE,
THAT MEANS THEY'RE
SYMMETRICAL.
[Beeping]
Opal says, BOOM!
THEY'RE ALL
SYMMETRICAL!
THAT'S THE PATTERN!
VAN COMPUTER?
The computer says,
YOU ARE GOING TO ASK
IF THERE ARE ANY SYMMETRICAL
THEMED VILLAINS IN TOWN.
Orla whispers,
THE MACHINE IS LEARNING!
The computer says, THERE IS A VILLAIN
NAMED SYMMETRIC ALICE.
[Gasp]
Opal dials on her cellphone and holds it to her ear.
Opal says, NORTH CAROLINA MS. O,
I HAVE GOOD NEWS!
North Carolina Ms. O says,
SO DO I.
Opal says, YOU GO FIRST.
North Carolina Ms. O says,
THIS WHOLE SIDES THING,
IT REALLY WORKS.
EVERYTHING I'M HAVING
IS A SIDE DISH TO OATMEAL.
BROWN SUGAR, MAPLE SYRUP,
RAISINS, AND CHOCOLATE CHIPS!
WHAT'S YOUR NEWS?
Opal says, I KNOW HOW TO SAVE
YOUR GOLF TOURNAMENT.
North Carolina Ms. O says,
OKAY, YOUR NEWS IS BETTER.
I'LL MEET YOU
AT THE GOLF COURSE.
I'LL TAKE THE RAISINS TO GO!
Mr Sides says, OH, UH, WE DON'T HAVE
ANY TAKE-OUT CONTAINERS.
[Whoosh]
Odin holds his hand in front of his flashlight.
Odin says, A BUNNY!
The agents exclaim, OH!
Omar says, WATCH OUT FOR THE WOLF!
[Giggling]
The boy with short hair says, INCREDIBLE, KING OMAR.
Omar says, HERE'S A BAT!
Odin says, WHICH I'LL SCARE AWAY
WITH A GHOST.
The girl with the bun says, A SHADOW GHOST!
IMPRESSIVE, ODIN.
Omar says, I SEE YOUR GHOST,
AND I'LL RAISE YOU A WARRIOR!
Odin says, CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.
Odin’s shadow warrior hits Omar’s shadow warrior.
Odin says, HERE COMES A DRAGON!
ROAR!
The girl with black hair says, ODIN'S GONNA WIN!
Omar says, DON'T BE SO SURE.
ROAR!
Omar creates a giant shadow dragon.
The agents exclaim, NO WAY!
WHOA!
Odin falls to his knees.
He yells, NOOOOO!
Odin says, HEY, GOOD JOB.
I REALLY MEAN IT.
HOW'D YOU MAKE YOUR DRAGON
A GIANT?
[Solemn music plays]
Omar says, I JUST MOVED MY HANDS
CLOSER TO THE LIGHT SOURCE.
THE SHADOW GOT BIGGER
BECAUSE MY HANDS
WERE BLOCKING THE LIGHT.
The agents bow and chant,
ALL HAIL THE SHADOW KING!
ALL HAIL THE SHADOW KING!
[Phone notification music plays]
Omar says, KING OMAR'S
HOUSE OF FRIENDSHIP!
OH, HI, OPAL.
GOT IT.
HEADING RIGHT OVER.
I GOTTA HEAD OVER
TO THE GOLF TOURNAMENT.
MY TEAM NEEDS ME.
AND-- I NEED YOU
TO SHOW EVERYBODY
YOUR WONDERFUL SHADOWS!
[Cheering]
Omar says, LET'S DO THIS!
[Whoosh]
The mobile unit van descends towards a golf course.
[Engine]
The van computer says,
APPROACHING MINI-GOLF
TOURNAMENT.
[Whoosh]
Opal holds a megaphone as agents stare at her.
[Feedback squeal]
Opal says, LISTEN UP!
WE ARE GOING TO MAKE THIS THIRD
ANNUAL MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT
VILLAIN-PROOF!
I NEED ALL SYMMETRICAL OBJECTS
OUT OF HERE!
[Feedback squeal]
Orla says,
IF YOU CAN DRAW A VERTICAL LINE
DOWN THE MIDDLE
AND IT IS THE SAME
ON BOTH SIDES, IT MUST GO!
[Feedback squeal]
Oswald says, I HAVE NOTHING TO ADD!
I JUST REALLY WANTED
TO USE THIS THING!
UH, THIS IS REALLY NICE,
YEAH.
North Carolina Ms. O shouts, YOU HEARD THEM, PEOPLE!
MOVE, MOVE, MOVE!
[Cheering]
Oswald scans a three-shaped shrub.
[Beep]
Opal says, THE NUMBER THREE
IS NOT SYMMETRICAL.
Orla says,
FOLLOW ME.
HOLD THE BALLOON.
North Carolina Ms. O holds a white balloon.
[Beep]
Orla says, SYMMETRICAL.
[Ding]
Orla waves at a passing agent.
Orla shouts, YOU!
TAKE THESE BALLOONS
AND RUN FOR THE HILLS!
North Carolina Ms. O says, BUT WE NEED BALLOONS!
Orla says, NOT TO WORRY.
I HAVE AN IDEA.
Orla holds a knot of balloons.
Orla says, THESE ARE NOT SYMMETRICAL AT ALL.
[Sigh]
Oswald scans a golf-ball cake.
He says, BUT THIS CAKE IS.
Opal turns to an agent, EXCUSE ME,
I NEED YOU TO TAKE A WEIRD
A CHUNK OUT OF THIS CAKE.
The agent says, IT WILL BE
MY ABSOLUTE PLEASURE.
He smashes his fist into a corner of the cake.
He looks at his fist and says, HMM.
Opal says, YEAH, THAT'LL WORK.
[Sigh]
Oswald puts a small plastic golf putter in the round part of the cake.
Oswald says, AND THESE SHOULD TAKE CARE
OF THE GOLF BALL.
Opal runs onto a stage.
Opal says, CITIZENS OF PINEHURST!
I AM HAPPY TO REPORT
THAT ALL SYMMETRICAL OBJECTS
HAVE BEEN REMOVED!
THE GOLF TOURNAMENT
IS SAVED!
[Applause]
[Zap]
A three disappears off the stage.
Agents duck and say, WHOA!
[Cackling]
A woman in a red and black catsuit wears her black hair in two buns. She holds a zapper in each hand.
She says, HELLO, ODD SQUAD!
Opal says, SYMMETRIC ALICE!
[Zapping, screaming]
Opal says, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
THE NUMBER THREE
IS NOT SYMMETRICAL-- LOOK!
Opal scans a three.
[Buzz]
Opal says, SEE?
Alice says, YOU'RE ONLY LOOKING AT THE
VERTICAL LINE OF SYMMETRY--
THE LINE THAT GOES
UP AND DOWN.
YOU FORGOT ABOUT
THE HORIZONTAL LINE OF SYMMETRY!
Opal says, HORIZONTAL?
LIKE SIDE TO SIDE?
Opal recalibrates her scanner and scans a three.
[Ding]
Opal says, IT IS SYMMETRICAL!
IT'S THE SAME ABOVE
AND BELOW THE LINE.
Alice says, MAKING THIS THIRD ANNUAL
MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT
A BUFFET OF SYMMETRY!
[Cackles]
Alice fires her zapper.
[Screaming]
North Carolina Ms. O shouts, THIS YEAR'S TOURNAMENT
IS AS BIG A DISASTER
AS THE OTHER YEARS!
Opal says, I GUESS I'M NOT MEANT
TO BE THE LEADER EITHER.
Omar ask, WHAT'S GOING ON?
[Zapping, screaming]
Opal says, SYMMETRIC ALICE IS WINNING,
AND WE LOST.
WHY ARE YOU WEARING
A CROWN?
Omar says, I WAS LOOKING
FOR A SOUVENIR,
THEN I BECAME THE KING OF
THE LEAGUE OF SHADOW MAKERS.
WE WERE GONNA
PUT ON A PUPPET SHOW.
[Zapping, screaming, cackling]
Alice says, I NEED MORE
SYMMETRICAL THINGS!
THE BIGGER THE BETTER!
Omar says, WAIT. I HAVE AN IDEA.
MAYBE WE COULD CREATE
SOME BIG SYMMETRICAL SHAPES
TO DISTRACT
SYMMETRIC ALICE.
YOU'VE GOTTA TRUST ME
ON THIS ONE.
I NEED YOU ALL
TO CLEAR THE STAGE.
SHADOW LEAGUE,
WE'LL PROJECT
OUR SHADOWS UP THERE.
BUT FIRST,
WE NEED A LIGHT SOURCE.
The girl with black hair says, I HAVE A SPOTLIGHT-INATOR
Omar says, PERFECT!
LET'S SET IT DOWN THERE.
[Zap]
Omar says, NOW, WHO HAS SOME OPAQUE OBJECTS
TO BLOCK THE LIGHT?
Odin says, OUR HANDS ARE OPAQUE.
Omar says, EXCELLENT.
NOW SHOW ME A BUTTERFLY!
The four shadow league agents create a giant butterfly on the stage.
Omar says, IT'S BEAUTIFUL,
BUT IT'S NOT BIG ENOUGH.
The boy with short hair says, MOVE CLOSER
TO THE LIGHT SOURCE,
TO BLOCK MORE LIGHT.
Alice says, IT'S SO--SYMMETRICAL.
I MUST ZAP IT!
[Zap]
The agents pull their hands away from the light and
the shadow butterfly disappears.
Alice says, UNGH! WHAT?
WHERE DID IT GO?!
Omar whispers, QUICK--
SHOW ME A HEART!
[Zap]
[Frustrated grumble]
Omar whispers, GIVE ME AN ARROW!
[Zap]
Omar says, A STAR!
[Zap]
Alice says, UNGH!
Omar whispers, A TAJ MAHAL!
[Zap]
Alice says, UNGH!
WHY CAN'T I HAVE THEM?!
Odin says, BECAUSE SHADOWS ARE JUST LIGHT
BEING BLOCKED BY OBJECTS.
Omar says, THE STUDENT
HAS BECOME THE MASTER.
Opal says, SYMMETRIC ALICE,
HAND OVER YOUR GADGETS
AND THE STUFF YOU STOLE!
Alice says, BUSTED.
Opal and Oswald take Alice’s guns.
[Rattle, rattle]
[Chuckling]
[Triumphant music plays]
Omar smiles proudly.
[Cheering, applause]
The shadow league high five each other.
[Hands slapping]
North Caroline Ms. O says, IT IS MY GREAT HONOUR
TO PRESENT THE THIRD ANNUAL ODD SQUAD
MINI-GOLF TOURNAMENT TROPHY
TO THE ODD SQUAD MOBILE UNIT.
[Clapping]
North Caroline Ms. O says,
NOW, LET'S EAT SOME CAKE WITH
A WEIRD CHUNK TAKEN OUT OF IT.
[Upbeat music plays]
Oswald says, OKAY.
Opal says, HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT, OMAR?
MAYBE YOU'RE OUR LEADER.
Oswald says, YEAH, YOU DID KINDA
SAVE THE DAY.
Orla adds, AND YOU'RE WEARING A CROWN.
Omar takes off the crown.
Omar says, MMM, NO, THANKS.
I DON'T HAVE TIME TO BE OSMU
LEADER AND THE SHADOW KING.
[Huh]
Opal asks, SO, WHAT DO WE DO?
Mr. Sides says, IF YOU ASK ME,
A GOOD TEAM IS LIKE
A PLATE OF SIDES.
THERE'S NO MAIN DISH
AND EVERYONE'S EQUAL.
SURE, SOME MOMENTS
MAY CALL FOR GUACAMOLE.
OTHERS MAY CALL
FOR BROWN RICE
OR PEPPER AND ROSEMARY HOME FRIES.
THE RARE OCCASION WILL CALL
FOR TANGY MUSTARD COLESLAW.
Oswald asks Opal, AM I THE TANGY COLESLAW?
Mr. Sides says, BUT ALL FOUR SIDES TOGETHER,
ON ONE PLATE,
THAT'S YOU GUYS!
YEAH!
Mr. Sides leaps into the air and stays there.
Opal, Oswald, Orla and Omar leap into the air beside him.
They shout, YEAH!
Hands tie shoelaces, a coat zips, a badge on a jacket turns.
[Zip, creak]
Opal says, I JOINED BECAUSE PAPER
SHOULD COME FROM TREES,
NOT SQUIRRELS DRESSED IN
THREE-PIECE BUSINESS SUITS.
Omar says, I JOINED BECAUSE
UP SHOULD BE UP,
NOT DOWN AND SLIGHTLY
TO THE LEFT.
Orla says, I JOINED BECAUSE I SHOULD NOT
FLICKER IN AND OUT OF REALITY.
[Woo woo woo]
Orla fades and reappears.
She says, THIS FEELS AS WEIRD AS IT LOOKS.
Opal says, WE ARE--
Omar says, WE ARE--
Big O says, WE ARE ODD SQUAD.
A voice says, SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME,
AND ALSO FORWARD IN TIME,
WE'VE BEEN FIGHTING ODD.
IN OUR SPARE TIME,
WE ALSO LIKE TO DRAW
PICTURES OF OURSELVES.
WE REALLY LIKE THIS ONE.
THERE IS NO CASE TOO BIG,
NO CASE TOO SMALL.
AT ODD SQUAD,
WE DO IT ALL.
YES, THAT IS THREE SUNS
SETTING AT ONCE.
WOW, THAT WAS A HOT DAY.
JOIN ODD SQUAD AT TVOKIDS.COM
[Buzz, ding]
A video game character moves in a game.
The voice says, AND YOU’LL GET
TOP-NOTCH TRAINING.
THE AGENTS OF ODD SQUAD
HAVE BEEN TURNED INTO PUPPIES.
WE NEED YOUR HELP
TO CHANGE THEM BACK.
[Pop, pop, pop]
WHERE TO LOOK
FOR HIDDEN CREATURES?
[Squawking]
[Thundering footsteps]
The voice says, GO TO TVOKIDS.COM TO HELP US
PUT THINGS RIGHT AGAIN.
YOU CAN ALSO WATCH ODD SQUAD CASES.
A video clip plays in a corner of a monitor.
[Unfolding paper]
Opal says, IT'S FROM MY FRIEND OSWALD.
"DEAR OPAL, I FOUND THE MAP."
YES! HE DID IT!
HE FOUND THE MAP!
HE FOUND THE MAP!
Omar says, I AM CONFUSED.
WHO IS OSWALD,
AND WHAT MAP?
Opal says, OSWALD WORKS AT AN ODD SQUAD
MUSEUM IN NEW YORK CITY,
AND THE MAP IS THE WAY
TO FIND THE FORTY-FOUR-LEAF CLOVER.
Big O says, JOIN TODAY.
ODD SQUAD NEEDS YOU.
AND I NEED A SPECIAL DELIVERY.
An envelope attached to a small blue and navy blue parachute floats down beside the Big O.
She says, AW, THAT WAS SPECIAL.
WELL, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? GO!
[Upbeat music plays]
Text reads “Odd Squad. Teaming Up with Teamwork Together as a Team.”
[Typing]
A female announcer says, ODD SQUAD. TEAMING UP WITH TEAMWORK TOGETHER AS A TEAM.
Omar stands by a shelf.
Omar says, HEY, I'M OMAR.
I WORKED FOR THE VERY FIRST
ODD SQUAD MOBILE UNIT.
I GET TO TRAVEL AROUND THE WORLD
IN THIS AWESOME VAN
AND SOLVE SO MUCH ODDNESS.
AND OCCASIONALLY,
I STOP TO GET A SOUVENIR.
Flashback. Omar looks at a map, WE CAN TOUR TORONTO!
AND GET A SOUVENIR!
Flashback. Omar says, I GUESS I'LL JUST STEP AWAY
TO FIND A NORTH CAROLINA SOUVENIR.
Flashback. Omar says, I GOT A SOUVENIR!
Omar says, MAYBE MORE THAN OCCASIONALLY.
Omar opens a display case.
[Whoosh]
Omar says, I LIKE TO HAVE
SOMETHING TO REMEMBER
THE AMAZING MOMENTS
IN MY LIFE.
BUT IT ISN'T ALL
FUN AND GAMES
HERE AT THE ODD SQUAD
MOBILE UNIT.
Flashback. Omar says, DEVILS TOWER
BOARD GAME?
Flashback. Omar says, YOU NEED TO PUT THE BALL
IN THE HOLE.
Flashback. Omar sings, CARDS!
Omar say, WELL, THIS HAS BEEN
FUN TO DO.
WISH I HAD A SOUVENIR
TO REMEMBER IT.
OR MAYBE I DO.
Omar picks up a snowglobe.
He whispers, THAT'S A MINI ME IN THERE!
[Shaking]
Omar shakes the globe and says, NOW WAIT FOR IT.
Snow falls on Omar.
He shouts, YEAH!
[Upbeat music plays]
Text reads “Odd squad. Teams working with teams together as a team together. [I think that was it.”
[Typing]
A female announcer says, ODD SQUAD. TEAMS WORKING WITH TEAMS TOGETHER AS A TEAM TOGETHER. I THINK THAT WAS IT.
[Exciting music plays]
Odd Squad end credits roll.

With Millie David as Big O.
The animated sun shines.
Teacher Joel sits by his bookcase.
Text reads “Primary one to three. Teacher Joel.”
[Upbeat music plays]
Joel says, WELCOME BACK, TVO KIDS.
I LOVE THE WAY ODD SQUAD
USED OUR IDEA OF SHADOWS,
BUT ALSO BROUGHT IN
A LOT OF MATH.
IN THAT EPISODE,
WE WERE TALKING ALL ABOUT
THE MATH OF SYMMETRY.
YOU'LL REMEMBER
FROM THAT EPISODE
THAT SYMMETRY IS WHEN WE SEE
THE SAME THING,
ALMOST LIKE
A MIRROR IMAGE,
ON BOTH SIDES
OF A LINE OF SYMMETRY.
AND WE CAN USE THAT SYMMETRY
AND OUR SHADOW LEARNING,
TO CREATE A REALLY COOL
PIECE OF ART AT HOME.
Joel holds up a piece of paper.
[Folding noise]
He says, YOU'RE GONNA WANT TO GRAB A
PIECE OF PAPER JUST LIKE THIS,
AND FOLD IT NICELY IN HALF.
YOU CAN GUESS--
THIS IS GOING TO BECOME
OUR LINE OF SYMMETRY.
NOW, USING A FLASHLIGHT
LIKE WE TALKED ABOUT EARLIER,
A LAMP, OR EVEN A SUNNY WINDOW,
YOU ARE GOING TO TRACE
THE SHADOW OF YOUR HAND.
SO, YOU'LL WANT TO HOLD YOUR
HAND ABOVE THE PAPER
AND TRY TO MAKE YOUR FINGERS
IN THE SHAPE OF BUTTERFLY WINGS.
I'M GIVING YOU A BIT OF A CLUE
AS TO WHAT KIND OF ART
WE ARE DOING TODAY.
NOW, THIS LINE
AT THE BOTTOM OF YOUR PALM,
RIGHT WHERE
YOUR WRIST STARTS,
YOU'RE GONNA WANT
TO LINE THAT UP,
THE SHADOW OF THAT,
UP WITH THE LINE OF SYMMETRY
AS MUCH IS POSSIBLE.
AND ONCE YOU'VE GOT
THAT SHADOW ON THE PAPER,
USE YOUR OTHER HAND
TO CAREFULLY TRACE.
AND YOU'LL COME UP
WITH SOMETHING
THAT LOOKS A LITTLE BIT
LIKE THIS.
Joel holds up his finished drawing.
He says, YOU CAN SEE WHERE
MY THUMB WAS BENDING...
TWO OF MY FINGERS HERE,
AND TWO,
THINKING ABOUT
BUTTERFLY WINGS
WITH THAT PART OF MY HAND
RIGHT ON THE LINE OF S SYMMETRY.
ONCE YOU'VE TRACED
YOUR SHADOW HAND,
YOU'RE GONNA WANT TO FOLD IT
THE OPPOSITE WAY.
SO, YOU'VE STILL GOT
THAT LINE OF SYMMETRY,
BUT YOUR PENCIL MARKS
ARE ON THE OUTSIDE.
AND HERE'S WHY.
YOU'LL REMEMBER, I ASKED YOU TO
SAFELY GET A PAIR OF SCISSORS.
YOU'RE GOING TO CUT ALL ALONG
THOSE LINES YOU TRACED,
[Cutting paper noise]
Joel says, THOSE SHADOW LINES...
AND WHAT YOU'LL NOTICE...
WHEN YOU'RE DONE CUTTING
AND YOU OPEN IT UP...
IS... A SYMMETRICAL BUTTERFLY.
YOU KNOW IT'S SYMMETRICAL
BECAUSE THE LINE OF SYMMETRY
IS HERE AND WE SEE THE EXACT SAME SHAPE
ON BOTH SIDES.
NOW, IF YOU'VE SEEN
A BUTTERFLY BEFORE,
YOU KNOW WE NEED
A LOT MORE COLOUR!
I'M GONNA CHALLENGE YOU
LATER IN THE DAY
TO REVISIT
THIS PIECE OF ART
AND COLOUR THE WINGS
OF YOUR BUTTERFLY.
THINKING ABOUT
INTERESTING COLOURS,
INTERESTING PATTERNS,
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY,
OUR BIG IDEA OF SYMMETRY.
IF YOU COLOUR THE TIP
OF THIS BUTTERFLY WING RED,
YOU'LL WANT TO DO
THE EXACT SAME OVER HERE
TO KEEP IT SYMMETRICAL.
IF YOU DO SOME BLUE
AND PURPLE POLKA DOTS
ALONG THE BOTTOM
OF THIS WING,
YOU'RE GONNA WANT TO DO
THE SAME OVER HERE TO KEEP IT SYMMETRICAL.
NOW, WE TALKED ABOUT SYMMETRY,
WE TALKED ABOUT SHADOWS,
AND WE TALKED ABOUT SCIENCE.
IF YOU'RE NOTICING
THE SAME THING I'M NOTICING,
ALL OF THOSE WORDS
START WITH THE LETTER ‘S’.
SO, BEFORE I SAY GOODBYE
FOR THE DAY,
LET'S CHECK OUT THIS EPISODE
OF ABC SINGSONG
AND SEE IF WE CAN THINK
OF EVEN MORE LETTER S WORDS.
The animated sun appears.
[Whee]
TVO Kids logo appears. The Goddard Brown logo appears.
Text reads “Original.”
[Giggling]
Male voices sing, IT'S AN ABC SINGSONG
Text reads “By Warren Brown and Adam Goddard.”
A male narrator says, ABOUT THE S.
[Blues music plays]
An animated green boy with curly green hair has a red nose.
The boy sings, S IS FOR SKUNK.
I THINK SKUNKS ARE SWEET.
LOOK AT THAT.
S IS FOR SKUNK,
STROLLING DOWN THE STREET.
An animated skunk walks on a path. The skunk stands in shallow water as a swan swims by him.
[Hands clap a rhythm]
The boy sings, THE SKUNK IS SITTING
BY A STREAM
WITH A SWAN SWIMMIN' BY
S IS FOR SKUNK.
SKUNK STARTS WITH S,
THAT'S WHY.
S FOR SKUNK
SAILIN' ON THE SEA
The skunk stands on a boat. It sniffs a sneaker.
OR SMELLING SMELLY SNEAKERS
THINKING, "THAT SMELLS JUST LIKE ME"
WHEW!
S IS FOR SEVERAL SKUNKS,
THAT'S QUITE THE SKUNK SUPPLY.
Four skunks walk side by side.
He sings, SURPRISE
A SKUNK IN SPACE,
FLOATING THROUGH THE SKY
A skunk floats in space. The skunk gestures at his white stripe. The skunk wears socks.
The boy sings, S IS FOR SKUNK WITH
THAT SUPER STYLISH STRIPE
THE SKUNK IS SPORTING
SWANKY SOCKS
LOOKIN' OUT OF SIGHT!
WOO
S CAN START SEVERAL WORDS,
LIKE "SQUID"
AND "SNOWMAN" TOO.
BUT I LIKE S FOR SKUNK.
SKUNK.
HOW ABOUT YOU?
[Cheerful music plays]
The TVO logo appears.
The animated sun rises in a blue sky.
[Upbeat music plays]
Teacher Joel sits by his bookcase.
Text reads “Primary one to three. Teacher Joel.”
He says, ALL RIGHT, TVOKIDS,
THAT'S JUST ABOUT IT FOR THE
TIME WE HAVE TOGETHER TODAY.
BUT BEFORE I SAY GOODBYE,
I WANNA REMIND YOU
OF SOME OF THE LEARNING
WE DID AND SOME OF THE PIECES
YOU CAN CONTINUE AT HOME
AS YOUR DAY GOES ON.
I SHOWED YOU WITH MY LAMP
HOW I MADE SOME SHADOW PUPPETS.
MAYBE LATER TODAY
YOU WILL COME UP
WITH YOUR OWN PLAY
BASED OFF SHADOW PUPPETS.
I'VE ALSO ASKED YOU TO COME UP
WITH A KWL CHART,
FOR OUR SHADOW
SCIENCE LEARNING.
REMEMBER, WE START WITH WHAT YOU KNOW,
WE COME UP WITH
SOME WONDERS--
THOSE ARE THOSE QUESTION WORDS
WE LOOKED AT TOGETHER--
AND THEN,
THROUGH SOME EXPLORATION,
WITH A LAMP, A FLASHLIGHT,
OR DEFINITELY
THE SUN OUTSIDE,
YOU'RE GONNA FILL IN
THAT L-
THINGS YOU LEARNED
ABOUT SHADOWS
AS YOU EXPLORED THROUGH
YOUR EXPERIMENTATION AT HOME.
I ALSO SHOWED YOU HOW
WE CAN USE A LINE OF SYMMETRY
ON A FOLDED PAPER
AND TRACE THE SHADOW
OF OUR HAND
TO MAKE A BUTTERFLY WING.
WHEN YOU CUT ALONG THAT
PENCIL LINE AND OPEN IT UP,
YOU'VE GOT
A SYMMETRICAL BUTTERFLY.
YOU CAN GO AHEAD
AND COLOUR THAT IN.
I HOPE YOU ENJOYED OUR THINKING
TODAY ABOUT SCIENCE,
AND SHADOWS, AND SYMMETRY,
AND THE LAST THING
I'M GONNA SAY
ALSO STARTS WITH AN S.
IT'S "WEE YOU LATER".
THANK YOU, TVOKIDS,
FOR JOINING US TODAY
ON POWER HOUR OF LEARNING,
MY NAME IS TEACHER JOEL,
THANKS FOR YOUR HARD WORK,
AND I'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME.
BUH-BYE!
Teacher Joel waves.
The animated sun rises.
Text reads “Bonus material.”

Tumbleweed announces, TUMBLEWEED PRESENTS TUMBLETOWN READS.
Text reads “Tumbleweed presents Tumbletown Reads.”
[Dog barks, owl hoots, car horn honks]
[Page flips]
Text reads “Today’s tale. Start at the beginning.”
Tumbleweed reads, TODAY’S TALE. START AT THE BEGINNING.
A sign on a tall building reads “Tumbletown Gazette.”
A brown mouse says, THAT'S WHAT I DID
ON THE WEEKEND.
Tumbleweed, a beige hamster, says, WOW! SKIING AND WINDSURFING
ON THE SAME DAY?!
The brown mouse says, YEP. I'M LIKE THAT, THOUGH.
WILD AND UNPREDICTABLE.
[Chuckle]
Tumbleweed says, OH! OH!
LISTEN TO WHAT HAPPENED TO ME
ON THE WEEKEND!
TRUE STORY.
WELL, I WATCHED THIS
REALLY FUNNY OLD MOVIE
WITH MY NEW FRIEND ELSA.
[Movie reel spins]
[Upbeat music plays]
Tumbleweed and a guinea pig watch a movie. They dig a hole.
BUT THAT WAS ONLY AFTER
A LOT OF DIGGING
BECAUSE, LET'S FACE IT,
NOTHING GETS OUT
BLUEBERRY JUICE.
[Needle scratching record noise]
The mouse interrupts, HUH? TUMBLEWEED--
Tumbleweed says, YEAH?
The mouse says, NOTHING YOU JUST SAID
MAKES ANY SENSE TO ME.
Tumbleweed chews food, then says, MM, MM. ON NOM. WHY?
The mouse asks, YOU WERE DIGGING
AND YOU FOUND A MOVIE?
Tumbleweed say, UH-HUH.
The mouse asks, WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO
WITH BLUEBERRY JUICE AND A MAP?
Tumbleweed says, OH, OF COURSE!
I FORGOT TO MENTION,
I SAW THIS REALLY NICE CARPET
AT A YARD SALE!
The mouse asks, WHAT?
Flashback. Tumbleweed stops his car by tables at the side of the road.
Tumbleweed says, WELL, I PULLED OVER
AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
WHEN I SAW THIS CARPET
TO REPLACE MY OLD ONE.
AND ELSA I GAVE ME
A REALLY GOOD PRICE,
SO I HAD TO SAY YES.
The mouse asks, AND WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO
WITH BLUEBERRY JUICE?
Tumbleweed says, OH, RIGHT!
Flashback. Tumbleweed knocks over a glass.
[Breaking glass]
He says, OH! OH, NO!
I ACCIDENTALLY KNOCKED MY GLASS
OF BLUEBERRY JUICE
ONTO THE CARPET.
AND THEN I-- WAIT, NO.
LET ME START AGAIN.
HOLD ON, UM--
OKAY, I GOT IT.
I BROUGHT
THE NEW CARPET HOME,
THE MAP TOLD ME AND ELSA
WHERE TO DIG.
A dark brown hamster peers over the top of a cubicle wall.
He asks, COULD YOU KEEP IT DOWN
OVER THERE?
SOME OF US ARE TRYING TO GET
SOME WORK DONE, YOU KNOW.
The brown mouse says, JIM, GET BACK TO WORK.
Jim says, WELL, YOU KNOW,
THE FAT CATS TOLD ME--
The brown mouse says, TUMBLEWEED, YOU WERE TELLING A STORY.
Tumbleweed says, YES.
Jim grumbles, THIS IS A WORK AREA.
The brown mouse says, AND IT DOESN'T
MAKE ANY SENSE!
Tumbleweed says, BUT…
The mouse interrupts, YOU NEED TO GET
THE EVENTS IN ORDER!
START AT THE BEGINNING.
Tumbleweed says, UM--
[Jazz music plays]
The mouse asks, WHAT WAS THE FIRST THING
THAT HAPPENED?
Tumbleweed says, OH! THANKS FOR ASKING.
WELL, FIRST OF ALL,
I SPILLED SOME BLUEBERRY JUICE
ON MY RUG.
Flashback.
[Breaking glass]
Tumbleweed says, OH, NO!
Tumbleweed narrates his flashback, AND THEN I DROVE
TO THE STORE.
Flashback. Tumbleweed drives to a “Carpet Store.”
He narrates, THE SALESMAN TOLD ME NOTHING
GETS OUT BLUEBERRY JUICE.
A salesman says, UH, NOTHIN' GETS OUT
BLUEBERRY JUICE, SON!
Tumbleweed chews a rug, OM, NOM, NOM.
The salesman says, UM, UH--
DON'T EAT ALL MY RUGS.
Tumbleweed narrates, AFTER FILLING UP ON CARPET,
I SAW A GARAGE SALE.
AND THERE I FOUND
THIS REALLY NICE NEW CARPET!
[Screeching tires]
The mouse asks, AND THAT'S WHERE
YOU MET ELSA?
Tumbleweed says, DIDN'T I MENTION THAT?
The mouse says, NO. CONTINUE, PLEASE.
Flashback continues.
Elsa says, LET ME HELP YOU
LOAD THAT ONTO YOUR CAR.
Tumbleweed narrates, WHEN I GOT
THE NEW ROAD HOME,
THERE WAS A NOTE
AND A MAP INSIDE.
HEY, A MAP!
I WONDER WHERE IT LEADS!
PERHAPS TO TREASURE.
HAHAHA!
SO, I SHOWED THE MAP ELSA.
SHE SAID IT WAS A MAP
TO HER BACKYARD.
Elsa says, BUT THIS IS A MAP
TO MY BACKYARD!
[Gasp]
Tumbleweed says, AND THE NOTE
TOLD US TO DIG
AT A PLACE
MARKED WITH AN X.
Tumbleweed digs.
He asks, ARE YOU SURE
THIS IS THE RIGHT PLACE?
Elsa says, YES. KEEP DIGGING.
Tumbleweed says, SO, I DID.
HEY, I THINK
I FOUND SOMETHING!
AND IT LOOKS HEAVY.
Elsa says, BETTER BRING IT UP, THEN
Tumbleweed says, YEAH, WELL,
I MIGHT AS WELL.
He mumbles under his breath,
I'VE DONE EVERYTHING ELSE.
Tumbleweed says, WE FOUND THIS FANCY BOX!
Tumbleweed and Elsa says, OH! OH, OH.
Tumbleweed says, IT MUST BE TREASURE!
QUICK, QUICK!
WE GOTTA OPEN IT!
WE GOTTA OPEN IT!
Elsa says, OH, BOY!
Tumbleweed says, I'M SO EXCITED!
OH, I WONDER IF IT'S SEEDS!
INSIDE THERE WAS A PROJECTOR
WITH SOME OLD MOVIES.
The trunk opens.
[Creak]
Tumbleweed exclaims, A PROJECTOR!
Elsa exclaims, OLD MOVIES!
Tumbleweed says, LET'S GO SET IT UP!
THEY WERE MOVIES OF ELSA
WHEN SHE WAS JUST A BABY.
[Film reel plays]
Elsa says, LOOK, IT'S ME.
Tumbleweed says, YOU LOOK
A LOT YOUNGER THERE.
[Nervous laugh]
Tumbleweed says, NOT THAT YOU
LOOK OLD NOW.
NOTHING--
I WAS JUST SAYING--
Elsa says, JUST DROP IT.
Tumbleweed says, OKAY.
He explains, IT WAS HER GREAT-GRANDFATHER WHO
TOOK THEM, AND THEN HE BURIED THEM
IN A TIME CAPSULE
SO SHE WOULD FIND THEM
MUCH LATER.
The brown mouse says, THAT'S AN AMAZING STORY!
ESPECIALLY AFTER YOU GOT
THE FACTS IN ORDER.
Tumbleweed says, YEAH, WELL,
THAT WAS MY FRIDAY.
SO, ON SATURDAY--
The mouse says, WHAT?
Text in the book reads “The End.”
Tumbleweed says, IT TOOK ME FIVE TIMES
TO GET MY TIE RIGHT--
[Groan]
Tumbleweed says, BECAUSE THE DISHES
WERE DIRTY.
AND THEN I HAD
THE GARAGE DOOR OPEN
WHICH WAS CRAZY
'CAUSE IT WAS WINDY.
A red figure carries a TVO Kids logo.
The animated sun shines.
