Colourful text reads, “Coming up…”
[Energetic music plays]
A young boy stands on a brick path. He has short, dark brown hair and wears a blue shirt, tan pants, a dark money bag, and a grey jacket with white trim and a red line around the cuffs.
The brown-haired boy asks, DO I GO THIS WAY OR THAT WAY?
In St. Lawrence Market in Toronto, an employee holding cheese leans towards the boy.
The brown-haired boy says, I'M GETTING THE TASTIEST AND LARGEST CHEESE YOU HAVE.
At a butcher’s stall, the brown-haired boy asks, DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE BREAD IS?
On a sidewalk, a young girl follows an older boy. The girl has dark brown eyes and a hood pulled over her black hair. She wears a black puffy coat, white leggings, lavender mittens, and a matching money bag. The boy has dark brown eyes and wears his hood pulled up over his touque. He wears a grey and dark bluish-grey jacket, grey pants, and a bright blue money bag.
The black-haired girl turns and looks behind them.
The black-haired girl says, I THINK WE ARE STILL LOST.
The brown-eyed boy says, I CAN SMELL THE LETTUCE!
Inside a restaurant, the brown-eyed boy says, OH NO, THAT'S ALL MY MONEY!
[Upbeat music plays]
A montage shows young children pushing shopping carts. On a sidewalk, Parker carries the pants.
The narrator says, HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHAT LITTLE KIDS CAN DO ON THEIR OWN?
[Parker giggling]
A man with short black hair waves to a child wearing bright green gloves and a purple coat.
The child shouts, BYE-BYE!
Ohelya carries a large potted plant in front of her face.
The narrator says, FOLLOWED BY A TEAM OF UNDERCOVER CAMERAS, THESE TINY TOTS ARE EMBRACING THEIR INDEPENDENCE.
Luther shouts, MOM, I GOT THE CHIPS!
Khamari carries a cake.
The narrator says, AND TURNING ORDINARY ERRANDS INTO EXTRAORDINARY ADVENTURES.
A girl with black hair wears a black jacket, light purple mittens, and a light purple purse. She drops a pizza box.
The black-haired girl says, AH, IT FALL.
Parker hugs her parents.
Parker shouts, YEAH!
The narrator says, THIS IS OLD ENOUGH!
Text reads, “Based on “Old Enough!” produced by Nippon T.V.” “T.V.O. presents.”
Text reads, “Narrated by Colin Mochrie.”
Shadows fall on the streets beneath skyscrapers in Toronto, Ontario. Wispy clouds drift in the blue sky behind the C.N. Tower.
[Vehicle horns honking, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THESE GIGANTIC TORONTO SKYSCRAPERS AND HUGE CROWDS OF BIG CITY FOLK, YOU'LL FIND A FUN-LOVING FIVE-YEAR-OLD NAMED SIMON.
Simon bounces on the bench of a picnic table on a street patio.
[Simon laughing, whooshing]
In the kitchen, Simon uses a knife to cut soft cheese while his dads supervise him. One of his dads leans against a countertop. He wears a grey cable-knit sweater and has short dark hair, a beard, and a moustache. His second dad hovers behind Simon. He wears a black shirt and eyeglasses and has short grey hair, a moustache, and a five-o’clock shadow.
Simon’s second dad says, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? WE USE THE KNIFE.
Simon’s first dad says, IT'S A WOODEN KNIFE.
In an interview, Simon’s dads sit together. Text beneath Simon’s first dad reads, “Stephane” and text beneath his second dad reads, David.”
David says, SIMON IS FEARLESS. HE'S A SUPER INDEPENDENT, WONDERFUL KID.
Stephane says, AND WE'RE HIS TWO DADS.
In the kitchen, David asks, SIMON, ARE YOU BEING VERY CAREFUL?
Simon says, YEAH.
David asks, LIKE, HOW CAREFUL?
Simon says, VERY CAREFUL.
[Gentle music plays]
Colin narrates, BEING A FEARLESS KID CAN BE HARD WHEN YOUR TWO DADS DON'T AGREE ON HOW MUCH FREEDOM YOU SHOULD HAVE.
In the interview, David says, HE'S OUR BABY BOY. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE HE'S OKAY.
Stephane says, DAVID IS ALWAYS TRYING TO PROTECT HIM.
David asks, AH-- IS THAT WRONG FOR A PARENT?
David and Simon walk together on a wide sidewalk. David moves so he walks between Simon and the street.
[Vehicle engines humming]
David says, THIS IS A VERY, VERY BUSY STREET. SO WE'RE GOING TO GO ON THIS SIDE. IS THAT OKAY?
Simon says, YEAH.
[Upbeat music plays]
Simon holds David’s hand and skips beside him.
Colin narrates, TO SHOW SIMON'S DAD, DAVID, THAT KIDS DESERVE
A LITTLE MORE FREEDOM, SIMON WILL BE GOING OUT TO RUN HIS VERY FIRST ERRAND ON HIS OWN.
In the interview, David says, I'M SO EXCITED.
David says, I'M SO STRESSED!
[Both laughing]
In the living room, Simon stands beside an older child with light brown hair. She wears a navy blue T-shirt. Simon paints the girl’s fingernails.
Colin narrates, SIMON'S BIG SISTER, FRANKIE, HAS A BIRTHDAY COMING UP.
The brown-haired girl, Frankie says, SIMON, YOU FORGOT THESE TWO SPOTS.
Simon explains, I'M GOING TO DO THEM A DIFFERENT COLOUR.
[Bottle clatters]
Colin narrates, SO THIS IS THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY FOR THIS FEARLESS FIVE-YEAR-OLD TO GO OUT ON HIS FIRST SOLO QUEST.
In the living room, Stephane sits beside Simon as Simon makes a paper fan. Simon fans Stephane.
Stephane says, OH, THAT FEELS SO--
In the kitchen, Simon puts pepper on pasta. He puts the grinder on the counter.
[Bottle tapping]
In the interview, David says, I'M JUST FEELING A BIT ANXIOUS. HE'S SO YOUNG, AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME HE'S EVER DONE SOMETHING LIKE THIS. I WILL BE DEFINITELY CONCERNED, AND WORRIED.
Orange morning light reflects off the top of the skyscrapers. On a busy street, cars drive past Gooderham Building, the Flatiron Building.
[Upbeat music plays, vehicle engines humming]
Colin narrates, FRANKIE'S BIRTHDAY HAS ARRIVED, AND THE FAMILY HAS SOMETHING BIG PLANNED FOR HER SPECIAL DAY.
David drives a car with Simon sitting in a booster seat in the backseat.
David asks, DO YOU KNOW WHAT WE WANT TO DO FOR FRANKIE?
Simon asks, WHAT?
David says, LET'S SURPRISE HER. DO YOU LIKE SURPRISES?
Simon says, YEAH. I'LL GIVE HER THE SURPRISE.
David says, OKAY, SO WHAT WE SHOULD DO, WE'RE GOING TO GO SHOPPING FOR HER, AND WE'RE GONNA HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DINNER FOR HER TONIGHT.
Simon says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT. HE'S UP TO HELP. BUT DAD HAS AN IMPORTANT BUSINESS CALL, SO HE NEEDS SIMON TO DO THE SHOPPING AT THE ICONIC ST. LAWRENCE MARKET, ALL ON HIS OWN.
In the car, David asks, ARE YOU GOOD WITH THAT?
Simon says, YEAH. SAINTS LAWRENCE MARKET, HERE WE COME.
[David laughing]
David says, WOO, WOO.
An animated map shows aisles of stalls in the market. A dotted line follows a small animated figure, showing their path through the aisles. Graphics of two red snappers, a wedge of cheese, grapes, and baguettes appear over stalls.
[Whooshing, snapping, popping, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, NOW, TO FIND ALL THE DINNER PARTY INGREDIENTS, SIMON WILL HAVE TO NAVIGATE THIS HUGE MARKET'S MAZE-LIKE AISLES, TO LOCATE ALL OF FRANKIE'S FAVOURITE FOODS.
STARTING WITH THE FISH STORE, TO PICK UP TWO RED SNAPPERS. THEN HE'LL FIND HIS WAY TO THE CHEESE SHOP, AND BUY A DELICIOUS WEDGE OF CHEESE. ONCE HE HAS THAT, HE'LL HEAD OVER TO THE FRUIT AND VEGGIE SECTION TO GRAB A CLUSTER OF JUICY GRAPES. AND THEN, FINALLY, TO THE BAKERY, TO GET TWO BIG BAGUETTES, BEFORE HEADING BACK HOME, FOR FRANKIE'S FANCY FEAST.
[Upbeat music plays]
David asks, CAN YOU SEE THIS?
David picks Simon up.
David says, THE DOOR'S RIGHT THERE.
Simon says, YEAH.
David says, OKAY, DADDY HAS TO MAKE A PHONE CALL FOR WORK. OKAY, SO I'M GOING TO BE HERE. CAN YOU GO IN AND GET THAT?
Simon says, YEAH.
David says, AND THEN MEET ME LATER, WHEN YOU'RE ALL DONE, MEET ME, LATER.
Simon says, OKAY. DO I GO THIS WAY OR THAT WAY?
[Energetic music plays]
David points and says, UH, THAT-- THAT WAY. BECAUSE THE DOOR IS RIGHT THERE.
Simon turns and runs.
Simon says, MM-HMM.
David says, OKAY, HAVE FUN!
Simon says, BYE!
David says, OKAY.
[David laughing]
Beside the car, David says, AH, THIS IS A REALLY BIG PLACE, AND HE'S A REALLY LITTLE KID. YEAH, NO, HE'LL BE FINE. DO I SOUND ANXIOUS?
[David laughing]
Simon skips into the building.
Simon mutters, YES.
Colin narrates, OKAY, TO FIND THE RED SNAPPERS, SIMON JUST NEEDS TO WALK PAST THE MEAT SECTION HERE, TO THE FAR END OF THIS AISLE. YEP, YOU'RE GOING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
Simon turns around and walks the way he came.
[Dramatic notes play]
Colin narrates, NOPE. NOT THAT WAY. UH, NO NEED TO TURN, SIMON. DON'T TURN, DON'T TURN.
Simon turns and then stops. He walks in front of the butcher counter.
Colin narrates, IT'S JUST AT THE END OF THE AISLE YOU'RE IN. YES. THAT WAY.
Simon skips quickly down the aisle.
[Energetic music plays]
Simon says, OVER HERE, LET'S GO. I'LL FIND FISH FOR HER, THAT'S--
A fish stall employee stands in front of the stall.
Simon says, HI.
The fish stall worker asks, HOW ARE YOU?
Colin narrates, RED SNAPPER IS A PRETTY FANCY FISH FOR A FIVE-YEAR-OLD. LET'S SEE IF SIMON REMEMBERS WHAT TO ORDER.
The fish stall worker says, SO, YOU SEE, WE DO HAVE THE RED SNAPPER. WE HAVE EURO BASS, AND WE HAVE THE SEA BREAM. WHICH ONE WOULD YOU LIKE?
Simon says, TWO RED SNAPPERS.
The fish stall worker says, TWO RED SNAPPERS. NO PROBLEM.
The fish stall worker gets two red snappers out of the display and weighs them.
[Upbeat music plays]
The fish stall worker says, IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I CAN HELP YOU WITH?
Simon says, I THINK THAT'S IT.
The fish stall worker says, NO PROBLEM.
Simon asks, DO YOU-- DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE GRAPES AND THE LEDGE CHEESES ARE?
Colin narrates, LEDGE CHEESES, WEDGES OF CHEESE, GIVE THE KID A BREAK, IT'S HIS FIRST TIME DOING THIS.
The fish stall worker gives Simon a bag, and Simon pays.
[Rustling]
The fish stall worker says, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Simon asks, SO, NOW CAN YOU LEAD ME TO THE GRAPES AND THE LEDGES OF CHEESE?
The fish stall worker points and says, IT'S RIGHT HERE IN THE CORNER, I BELIEVE, SO.
Colin narrates, AND HE'S OFF TO THE CHEESE.
Simon bounces the bag on the floor behind him as he walks through a crowd.
[Squelching, happy music plays]
Colin narrates, OH, OOH. THOSE POOR FISH.
Simon says, THIS PLACE IS--THAT WAS A LOT OF WALKING.
Simon carries the bag to a cheese stall.
Simon says, MY NAME IS SIMON. I'M GETTING THE TASTIEST AND LARGEST CHEESE YOU HAVE.
The cheese stall employee picks up a quarter of a wheel of cheese.
The cheese stall employee asks, HOW ABOUT THIS BEAUTIFUL BEEMSTER CHEESE?
Simon says, I JUST NEED-- YEAH, A BIG CHUNK OF IT.
The cheese stall employee says, I'LL GIVE YOU HALF. HUGE.
[Tapping]
Simon says, OKAY.
The cheese stall employee says, BEAUTIFUL. LET ME PUT IT IN A BAG. I'LL GIVE IT TO YOU, OKAY?
Simon says, OKAY. NOW I NEED TO CARRY TWO HEAVY BAGS.
The cheese stall employee says, YEAH, I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU'RE GOING TO CARRY IT. IT'S CRAZY.
Simon pays for the cheese.
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT. GOT THE LEDGE OF CHEESE. I MEAN, WEDGE OF CHEESE. SIMON, YOU'VE GOT ME DOING IT NOW.
The cheese stall employee says, NOW YOU HAVE TO PUT THIS MONEY IN YOUR WALLET. SO YOU CAN GIVE IT BACK TO MOMMY AND DADDY.
Simon says, I DON'T HAVE A MOM, I HAVE TWO DADS.
The cheese stall employee says, VERY GOOD. THAT'S EXCELLENT. AND THIS BAG IS FOR YOU TO TAKE HOME. DO YOU NEED ANY HELP? DO YOU WANT TO PUT IT OVER YOUR SHOULDER SO IT WON'T BE THAT HARD?
Simon says, OKAY.
The cheese stall employee says, VERY GOOD.
Colin narrates, OKAY, NOW TO FIND THOSE GRAPES.
The cheese stall employee points and says, SO, YOU'RE GOING TO GO THAT-A-WAY. AND THEN YOU'RE GOING TO LOOK TO YOUR RIGHT, AND YOU'LL SEE SOME GRAPES.
Simon asks, WHERE'S THE RIGHT?
The cheese stall employee says, PARDON?
Simon asks, WHERE'S THE RIGHT SIDE?
The cheese stall employee says, THE RIGHT-- SO, THIS IS YOUR RIGHT.
Simon asks, OKAY.
[Upbeat music plays]
The cheese stall employee says, GOOD LUCK, SIMON.
Simon says, TWO GRAPES.
♪
Colin narrates, AND NOW, THE WORLD'S MOST BORING PLACE FOR A KID…
[Music stops]
Colin narrates, THE VEGETABLE AISLE. WHERE THERE'S VEGETABLES, USUALLY THERE'S FRUIT. SO, THOSE GRAPES HAVE GOT TO BE AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE.
Simon walks up to a counter.
Simon says, I'M LOOKING FOR A LONG PIECE OF BREAD, AND SOME GRAPES.
A produce worker says, OH, A LONG...
Simon repeats, PIECE OF BREAD.
The produce worker says, BEAN? FLAT BEAN? LONG, FLAT BEAN?
Simon says, IT'S BREAD, BUT IT'S LONG.
The produce worker says, SO, I DON'T SELL BREAD IN HERE.
Simon says, OH.
The produce worker says, I ONLY SELL FRUIT AND VEGETABLES.
Simon asks, LIKE GRAPES?
[Upbeat music plays]
The produce worker says, GRAPES. YES. IS THERE A FAVOURITE ONE?
Simon says, SO, I NEED SOME GRAPES.
The produce worker says, THE GREEN ONE OR RED ONE YOU LIKE?
Simon says, I THINK I'LL TAKE BOTH.
The produce worker picks up a large bag of grapes, and Simon takes out a bunch.
[Bag rustling]
The produce worker says, OKAY. I CAN HOLD THEM. DO YOU WANT TO GRAB WHATEVER YOU WANT? THERE YOU GO. GOOD JOB.
Simon pays and takes a grey bag.
The produce worker says, OKAY. YOU HAVE A NICE DAY.
Simon says, YEAH. YOU KNOW, I JUST CANNOT HOLD ALL THESE BAGS THAT ARE SO HEAVY. I CAN HOLD MY MONEY BAG. BUT THESE BAGS, I CANNOT HOLD VERY GOOD.
The produce worker says, SO, YOU GET SOMEBODY OUTSIDE TO PICK UP THE FRUIT FROM YOUR HANDS. YOU CAN DROP OFF YOUR BAG TO THEM. THEN YOU CAN GO FOR THE NEXT STOP FOR SHOPPING.
Simon says, SO, I'LL DROP OFF ONE AT A TIME.
The produce worker says, OKAY.
Colin narrates, SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN. GO THAT WAY, STRAIGHT.
[Simon grunting]
A second produce worker asks, YOU WANT TO PUT IT INSIDE?
Simon says, YEAH.
The second produce worker helps Simon put all his bags into the fish bag.
The second produce worker says, YEAH, PUT IT INSIDE THERE. IT'S REALLY HEAVY.
Simon says, I KNOW.
Simon pushes a large door but cannot move it all the way open.
Colin narrates, NOW, THE ONLY THING WORSE THAN A HEAVY BAG IS A HEAVY DOOR. DON'T THEY TAKE KIDS INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN THEY MAKE THESE THINGS?
A passing shopper stops and opens the door for Simon.
Colin narrates, AH! NOTHING LIKE A HELPFUL SHOPPER AND THEIR GROWN-UP MUSCLES TO SAVE THE DAY.
Outside, David paces beside his car. He waves to Simon.
Simon says, I WAS JUST DROPPING OFF A LOAD BECAUSE IT WAS TOO HEAVY.
Simon sits on the sidewalk, and David walks up to him.
David says, OHH!
Simon says, YEAH.
David says, LET'S HAVE A LOOK. ARE YOU SO TIRED?
Simon says, IT'S ONLY-- ONLY THE BREAD. ONLY THE BREAD I HAVE TO RUN IN, BACK IN THE STORE, TO GET. I GOT THE FISH. I GOT THE CHEESE.
David says, OKAY.
Simon says, AND I GOT THE GRAPES. I GOT BOTH COLOURS.
David says, OKAY, SO, ARE YOU GONNA GO BACK IN?
Simon says, YEAH, TO GET THE-- TO GET THE BREAD.
David says, WHAT KIND OF BREAD? WHAT KIND OF BREAD?
Simon says, THE LONG BREADS.
David asks, YEAH. HOW MANY?
Simon says, UM... THREE?
David says, WE ONLY NEED TWO. BUT THREE IS GOOD.
Simon runs back to the doors.
[Energetic music plays]
Simon says, OH NO, DOOR CLOSES!
By the car, David says, COME ON, BUDDY.
Simon says, OKAY.
Colin narrates, GREAT, ANOTHER DOOR THAT WEIGHS EIGHT MILLION POUNDS. PLEASE DON'T FLATTEN SIMON LIKE A PANCAKE.
Simon pulls on the door and squeezes through the narrow opening.
Colin narrates, PHEW! AND SIMON IS BACK ON HIS MISSION TO GET THE LONG BREAD. I MEAN, THE BAGUETTES.
Simon skips down an aisle. He slows down and walks around a butcher’s counter.
[Upbeat music plays]
Subtitle: “What are you looking for?”
Simon says, THE BREAD.
Subtitle: “Just keep going about, uh, another thirty-five.”
At another butcher counter, Simon says, OKAY! DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE BREAD IS? WHERE'S THE BREAD?
At third butcher counter, Simon says, I NEED TO GET BREAD!
Colin narrates, NOPE. NO BREAD AT THE BUTCHER SHOP. AND THERE IT IS. THE BAKERY.
Simon skips past the bakery.
Colin narrates, OH, NO, SIMON, YOU SKIPPED RIGHT PAST IT. YOU KNOW, IF YOU JUST KEEP GOING IN A CIRCLE, YOU'LL FIND IT. THERE YOU GO. AT LAST, THE BREAD.
Simon says, HELLO? CAN I HAVE A LONG PIECE OF BREAD, A LONG ONE?
A bakery worker says, YEAH, SURE.
[Upbeat music plays]
The bakery worker puts a baguette in a bag.
Simon says TWO MORE OF THE SAME BREAD.
The bakery worker says, YOU WANT MORE?
Simon says TWO MORE OF THESE.
The bakery worker says, TWO MORE? OH, MY GOD, OKAY, GIVE ME A MINUTE, OKAY?
The bakery worker says, OKAY. TWO MORE, OKAY? HERE YOU GO. YOUR CHANGE. CAN YOU CARRY ALL OF THIS?
Simon pays.
Simon says, YEAH.
The bakery worker says, OH, YOU'RE VERY STRONG.
[Laughing]
The bakery worker says, OKAY. HAVE A NICE DAY.
Simon says, YOU, TOO.
Simon slings the baguettes over his shoulder.
The bakery worker says, THANK YOU. BYE BYE.
Colin narrates, FINALLY, AUTOMATIC DOORS. SIMON'S LIFE JUST GOT SO MUCH EASIER.
[Dramatic music plays]
Simon drops a baguette and picks it up.
Colin narrates, SPOKE TOO SOON.
Simon carries his baguettes outside.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, AND NOW, TO FIND DAD.
David waits beside the car.
Simon says, I GOT THE BREAD!
David says, YOU GOT THE BREAD. LET ME SEE, BUD.
Simon says, THREE OF THEM.
David says, THOSE WILL BE GREAT. COME HERE. GIVE ME A BIG HUG. I'M SO PROUD OF YOU.
David hugs Simon, and they high-five.
In the interview, David says, SIMON WAS INCREDIBLE TODAY. I WAS SO PROUD. THAT KID ROCKED IT.
In the car, David says, GOOD FOR YOU, BUDDY.
Simon says, NOW I KNOW HOW TO SHOP BY MYSELF.
David says, YOU DO.
In the interview, David says, HE WENT THROUGH A WHOLE MARKET, AND BOUGHT ALL THESE ITEMS. HE COULD BARELY LIFT THEM, MIND YOU, BUT HE WAS STILL ABLE TO DO IT.
Simon opens his front door.
Simon announces, WE'RE HOME!
David says, WE'RE HOME!
In the living room, Stephane and Frankie sit on a couch.
[Laughing]
Simon says, WE WENT TO THE ST. LAWRENCE MARKET.
In the interview, Stephane says, I AM SO HAPPY. I KNEW HE WAS GONNA ROCK IT.
[Upbeat music plays]
In the living room, Stephane asks, DO YOU THINK YOU CAN BUY EVERYTHING FOR MY BIRTHDAY?
Simon puts a grape in his mouth and falls backwards on the couch.
In the interview, Stephane says, I AM ACTUALLY QUITE PROUD OF DAVID. THIS WAS A GOOD EXPERIENCE FOR A VERY WORRIED DAD.
In the living room, Simon says, I WAS NOT EVEN SCARED.
Stephane says, YOU WEREN'T SCARED?
Simon says, YEAH.
Stephane says, WOW.
Simon says, HUGGY!
Simon hugs Frankie. Stephane and David hug the children between them.
Stephane says, OH!
[Everyone laughing]
Logo: Old Enough!
[Chiming]
Leaves sway on a tree branch. The black-haired girl and brown-eyed boy run in a laneway beside a house.
Colin narrates, IN A BUSY LITTLE NEIGHBOURHOOD, YOU'LL FIND TWO BUSY LITTLE SIBLINGS.
The children hold hands and swing in a circle.
The brown-eyed boy says, WOO-WOO-WOO-WOO!
[Singing]
Colin narrates, MEET SIX-YEAR-OLD PEMISIRE, AND FOUR-YEAR-OLD OREOFE…
The brown-eyed boy Pemisire hugs his little sister, the black-haired girl Oreofe. Text reads, “Age 6. Age 4.”
[Whooshing]
In a kitchen, the Pemisire washes a bowl. Oreofe stands beside him with a dish towel.
[Faucet water flowing]
Colin narrates, WHOSE MOM AND DAD WANT TO TEACH THEM HOW TO BE MORE INDEPENDENT, THE SAME WAY THEY WERE RAISED.
In an interview, Pemisire and Oreofe’s parents sit together. Their dad, Tolu, has a shaved head, a short black beard, and a moustache. He wears a purple sweater. Their mom, Funmi, has bobbed, curly black hair and wears a grey hooded sweater.
[Upbeat music plays]
Funmi says, GROWING UP IN NIGERIA AS YOUNG CHILDREN, A FIVE-YEAR-OLD IS ALREADY HELPING THEIR PARENTS TO WORK AT THE MARKET. YOU DON'T FIND THAT A LOT HERE.
In the kitchen, Pemisire rinses a cup.
[Water flowing]
In the interview, Funmi says, WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A WAY TO HELP THEM GROW THAT INDEPENDENCE, AND, YOU KNOW, TO THINK ON THEIR FEET.
Outside, Funmi swings Oreofe in a circle.
[Background shouting]
Colin narrates, LEARNING TO THINK ON THEIR FEET WILL BE IMPORTANT, SINCE THE FAMILY IS LEAVING THEIR HOME IN CANADA FOR A BRAND NEW START.
In a living room, Oreofe picks up bubble wrap.
[Rustling]
In the interview, Funmi says, IN TWO DAYS, WE ARE ACTUALLY PACKING UP, AND MOVING TO DALLAS TO START A NEW ADVENTURE.
Colin narrates, NEW ADVENTURES COME WITH NEW CHALLENGES, SO NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEMISIRE AND OREOFE TO GET A TASTE OF THAT INDEPENDENCE, AND RUN SOME ERRANDS, ALL BY THEMSELVES, FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME.
The children help their parents pack.
[Rustling]
In the kitchen, Oreofe says, BOOP! BOOP! BOOP!
In the interview, Funmi says, MY WORRY WOULD BE THAT PEMISIRE WILL GET DISTRACTED.
Tolu says, HE IS QUITE OUTGOING. HE IS OUTSPOKEN. HE IS THE LIFE OF THE PARTY.
Funmi says, WHILE ORE IS A CALM, COLLECTED LADY.
In the kitchen, Pemisire washes a glass.
Oreofe says, YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL.
[Water splashing]
In the interview, Funmi says, LET'S GIVE THEM A LITTLE PUSH, TO BASICALLY TEST HOW INDEPENDENT THEY REALLY ARE.
The sun rises over a street lined with houses.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, WHILE ORE IS AT A PARK PLAYDATE, THE OLD ENOUGH! CREW, DISGUISED AS ELECTRICIANS, ARE RIGGING UP SOME HIDDEN CAMERAS, SO PEMISIRE WON'T SUSPECT A THING.
In the living room, Funmi sits on the couch and types on a laptop computer. A crewmember snaps a clapperboard in front of Funmi.
[Tapping]
A crewmember says, WE'VE SET UP SOME DEVICES AROUND THE HOUSE, SO, PLEASE DON'T TOUCH THOSE.
The crewmember with the clapperboard snaps it in front of a second camera.
[Tapping]
In the living room, Funmi and Pemisire sit on the couch.
Colin narrates, NOW IT'S TIME FOR MOM TO GIVE HIM HIS BIG ASSIGNMENT.
Funmi says, I NEED TO SEND YOU ON AN ERRAND.
Pemisire says, WHAT? WHY?
Funmi says, BECAUSE YOU SAID YOU'RE MOMMY'S HELPER.
She kisses Pemisire’s hand.
[Smooching]
Funmi says, BOTH OF YOU ALWAYS PROMISE TO HELP ME WHEN I'M-- I NEED YOUR HELP, AND I NEED IT NOW.
Pemisire says, MM-MM.
Pemisire does a handstand on the couch.
[Gentle music plays]
Colin narrates, UH OH. THIS MIGHT NOT BE AS EASY AS SHE HOPED. MAYBE FOOD WILL CONVINCE PEMISIRE.
Funmi says, TODAY I'M TREATING YOU ALL TO PIZZA.
Pemisire says, FEASTING!
Funmi says, YEAH.
On an animated map, a dotted line following a small animated figure shows a path from home to the park.
Graphics of toothbrushes, toothpaste, and pizza appear.
[Upbeat music plays, popping]
Colin narrates, THE ERRAND IS SIMPLE, FOR A GROWN UP.
PEMISIRE WILL PICK HIS SISTER UP FROM THE PARK. THEN THEY'LL WALK TO THE NEARBY PHARMACY TO GET SOME ITEMS THEY NEED THAT HAVE ALREADY
BEEN PACKED AWAY. THEY'LL NEED TO BUY FOUR TOOTHBRUSHES, AND TWO TUBES OF TOOTHPASTE, ONE FOR ADULTS, ONE FOR KIDS.
THEN THEY'LL WALK TO THE PIZZA PLACE NEXT DOOR, TO PICK UP THREE DIFFERENT PIES FOR LUNCH. AND AFTER THAT, IT'S BACK HOME FOR A PIZZA FEAST.
[Party horn tooting]
In the living room, Funmi says, OH, YES, I WANT WINGS. FRIES. FRIES AND WINGS.
Pemisire says, CHICKEN WINGS.
Funmi says, YES.
[Upbeat music plays]
Funmi helps Pemisire put on his coat.
Colin narrates, AH, CHICKEN WINGS. THE NUMBER ONE WAY TO GET A BOY OUT ON HIS FIRST ERRAND. WITH HIS COAT ALL ZIPPED UP, AND SOME FIST BUMPS OF ENCOURAGEMENT, THE ADVENTURE BEGINS.
Funmi and Pemisire fist bump.
On the front porch, Pemisire says, I FORGOT HOW TO GO THERE.
[Vehicle engines humming]
Funmi says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, A FEW LAST MINUTE DIRECTIONS FROM MOM...
Funmi points and says, YES, AND GO ALL THE WAY DOWN.
Pemisire asks, IS THAT THERE?
Funmi says, YES. RIGHT THERE. BE CAREFUL.
Colin narrates, AND PEMISIRE IS OFF. WEARING A STYLISH MONEY BAG, AND CARRYING ONE FOR HIS SISTER.
On the porch, Funmi says, OH, MY GOD. I HOPE HE'S FINE.
Colin narrates, LET'S JUST HOPE MOM CAN RELAX. AH, THAT'S EASY FOR ME TO SAY. IT'S NOT MY KIDS WHO ARE OFF ON THEIR OWN FOR THE FIRST TIME.
[Pemisire whistling]
Pemisire walks past a sign that reads, “Wrong way.”
[Ominous music plays]
Colin narrates, OH, BOY. THAT SIGN BETTER NOT BE AN OMEN OF THINGS TO COME.
Pemisire arrives at the park.
[Upbeat music plays]
Pemisire says, FINALLY. OVER HERE.
Pemisire runs to Oreofe.
Pemisire says, ORE, HERE! WE HAVE TO GO TO A STORE. PUT YOUR ARM THROUGH.
Pemisire helps Oreofe put on the money bag, and they leave the park.
Pemisire says, NO, NOT THAT ARM. THE ARM BESIDE-- OH, THAT'S BETTER. WE JUST NEED TO GO THIS WAY.
Colin narrates, THEY'VE JUST GOT TO HEAD BACK IN THE DIRECTION PEMISIRE CAME FROM, AND, OH NO, THAT'S THE WRONG WAY.
Pemisire says, DO NOT GO THAT WAY. I HEARD THERE WAS A COYOTE. JUST KIDDING
[Colin laughing]
Colin narrates, NICE ONE, PEMISIRE.
Pemisire says, ORE, I THINK WE ARE NOT GOING THE RIGHT WAY.
Pemisire turns around. Oreofe hits his stomach as he passes her.
[Thump]
Colin narrates, OH! THAT IS GOING TO LEAVE A BRUISE.
[Gentle music plays]
Pemisire says, NO, NOT THAT WAY. THAT'S THE WAY HOME. ORE, WE'RE LOST.
Oreofe says, HUN?
Pemisire says, WE'RE LOST.
Oreofe says, LET'S JUST GO HOME.
Pemisire says, WE ARE NOT GOING HOME.
Oreofe asks, THEN WHERE ARE WE GOING?
Pemisire says, WE ARE GOING TO THE PIZZA PLACE. IT'S THAT WAY. JUST KEEP GOING STRAIGHT, I PROMISE, IT'S HERE.
Oreofe says, I THINK WE ARE STILL LOST.
Pemisire says, WE ARE NEVER LOST.
[Upbeat music plays]
Oreofe says, I SMELL SOMETHING STINKY. I JUST WANT YOU TO DROP ME OFF. THIS IS OUR HOME.
Pemisire says, YEAH, BUT I'M NOT GOING THERE.
Oreofe says, YES. WE ARE NOT GOING THERE. AFTER, WHEN WE COME BACK.
Pemisire says, I CAN SMELL THE LETTUCE!
Colin narrates, HE CAN SMELL THE LETTUCE PIZZA, WHATEVER THAT IS.
Pemisire says, JUST SMELL HARD. DO YOU SMELL IT?
Colin narrates, VERY SMART, PEMISIRE. WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE A MAP, USE YOUR NOSE.
Oreofe says, OH MY GOSH, I SMELL IT NOW.
Colin narrates, IF YOU SMELL IT, THEN YOU'LL BE THERE ANY MINUTE NOW. AS LONG AS NO ONE GETS DISTRACTED.
Pemisire stops and looks at a large evergreen tree. Oreofe walks up behind him and punches him in the side.
Pemisire says, OW!
Oreofe says, SORRY.
Colin narrates, THE NICE THING ABOUT MOM AND DAD NOT BEING AROUND IS YOU CAN HIT YOUR BROTHER, AS LONG AS YOU APOLOGIZE AFTER.
Pemisire points and says, IT'S RIGHT UP AHEAD!
[Upbeat music plays]
Pemisire says, TURN!
[Pemisire singing]
Oreofe says, YEAH! YEAH. YEAH. WE ARE ALMOST THERE.
Colin narrates, AND THERE IT IS. THEY FOUND IT. THE GREATEST PLACE ON EARTH. THE PIZZA PARLOUR.
[Majestic music plays]
Pemisire says, WE MADE IT.
[Music stops]
Colin narrates, OH, AND THERE'S THE PHARMACY THEY HAVE TO GO TO, TO GET THE TOOTHBRUSHES.
Pemisire and Oreofe skip past the pharmacy. Pemisire stops and looks back at the pharmacy.
Colin narrates, YOU CAN'T BLAME THEM FOR SKIPPING RIGHT PAST IT. I MEAN, THIS IS PIZZA WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. COME ON!
Pemisire opens the pizza parlour door, and he and Oreofe enter.
[Door chiming]
A pizza parlour worker says, HELLO.
Oreofe says, HI. UM...
The pizza parlour worker asks, HOW CAN I HELP YOU?
Oreofe says, WE NEED THREE PIZZAS.
Pemisire says, A HAWAIIAN, A BARBECUE, AND HALF CHEESE.
[Background telephone ringing]
Pemisire asks, CAN WE ADD CHICKEN WINGS?
The pizza parlour worker says, SORRY, YOU WERE SAYING?
Pemisire says, SMALL FRIES, AND TWO CANS OF POP.
Oreofe asks, HOW MUCH DOLLARS DO WE NEED?
Pemisire spreads four tens on a counter.
He asks, UH, COULD THIS BE ENOUGH?
The pizza parlour worker says, IT'S GOING TO BE 34.95. SO YOUR CHANGE IS GOING TO BE FIVE CENTS. I'LL GIVE IT TO YOU, OKAY? JUST GIVE ME A SECOND.
Pemisire says, I DON'T HAVE CENTS.
The pizza parlour worker says, FIVE CENTS. YEAH.
The pizza parlour worker picks the money up from the counter. Pemisire’s eyes widen, and he looks alarmed.
Pemisire says, OH. OH, NO. THAT'S ALL MY MONEY.
The pizza parlour worker says, THERE YOU GO.
The pizza parlour worker gives Pemisire a nickel.
Pemisire says, YES.
The pizza parlour worker says, JUST GIVE ME AROUND 10 TO 15 MINUTES, AND I'LL GET EVERYTHING READY FOR YOU.
Colin narrates, AND NOW, THE ONLY BAD PART OF ORDERING A PIZZA. THE WAIT.
The children sit at a table. Behind the counter, the pizza parlour worker makes a pepperoni pizza.
Pemisire stands up and looks at the underside of the counter.
Pemisire asks, WHAT IS THIS?
Oreofe orders, BROTHER, SIT.
Pemisire says, I DON'T WANT TO. THERE'S LIGHTS!
Oreofe says, BROTHER.
Pemisire does chin-ups on the counter.
Pemisire says, WAAAH! HELLO.
The pizza parlour worker says, I'VE GOT YOUR PIZZA, AND EVERYTHING IS READY NOW.
Pemisire asks, WHERE?
Pemisire says, OH, MY GOODNESS. I THINK THAT THIS--
Oreofe says, IT'S TOO HEAVY.
The pizza parlour worker gives Pemisire three large pizza boxes.
Pemisire says, IT'S TOO MUCH FOR A KID.
The pizza parlour worker gives Oreofe a plastic bag with the wings and cans.
The pizza parlour worker says, YOUR SISTER CANNOT CARRY THAT ONE.
Pemisire says, AWWW!
[Door chiming]
The pizza parlour worker says, HERE, CARRY IT PROPERLY. YOU DID GREAT.
Pemisire says, NO, I NEED SOMEBODY TO CARRY THIS.
Oreofe holds the door open for Pemisire.
The pizza parlour worker says, WALK SLOWLY. WALK SLOWLY. WALK STRAIGHT. THERE YOU GO.
Pemisire says, THIS IS SO HEAVY.
Colin narrates, THEY DID IT. NOW THEY JUST NEED TO HEAD INTO THE PHARMACY TO GET THE TOOTHBRUSHES. THE PHARMACY THAT IS... IN THE OTHER DIRECTION.
Pemisire stops and puts the pizza boxes on the sidewalk.
Pemisire says, COULD JUST DO,,,THIS. THIS.
Oreofe says, YOU CAN HOLD TWO. I CAN HOLD ONE. BROTHER, YOU CAN HOLD TWO.
Pemisire picks up two pizza boxes and walks away.
Pemisire says, HURRY UP!
[Upbeat music plays]
Oreofe says, OKAY. I'M STRONG.
Pemisire says, YEAH, IT'S SO HARD.
Oreofe says, YEAH.
Pemisire says, OW, OW, OW. IT STINGED. OWIE. OW.
Oreofe shouts, THIS IS SO HEAVY!
Oreofe drops her pizza.
[Dramatic notes play]
Oreofe says, AH! I COULDN'T-- I CAN'T HOLD IT.
[Upbeat music plays]
Oreofe drops the box again.
Oreofe says, UGH! OH, NO. IT FALL.
Oreofe picks slices of pizza up off the ground and puts them back in the box.
Colin narrates, FIVE SECOND RULE!
Oreofe says, OH! PIZZA. WE NEED THE PEPPERONI.
In front of the house, Funmi sits on the front steps.
Oreofe says, BROTHER, I SEE MOMMY.
Funmi shouts, HURRAY!
[Applause]
Pemisire says, WE FORGOT THE ORAL-B'S.
Funmi says, I GUESS YOU HAVE TO GO BACK TO GET THEM.
Colin narrates, ORAL-B'S. THAT'S KID-SPEAK FOR TOOTHBRUSHES.
Funmi says, YOU NEED TO HELP GET THE TOOTHPASTE AND THE BRUSHES.
Pemisire says, NO, I'M NOT.
Funmi says, YES, PLEASE.
Pemisire says, NO!
Pemisire walks up the front steps.
Funmi says, I'LL GET YOU YUMMY HOT CHOCOLATES WHEN YOU COME BACK. I'LL MAKE IT READY FOR YOU.
Oreofe says, OKAY, IF YOU SAY SO.
Funmi says, THANK YOU.
Pemisire says, NO! ORE IS GOING BY HERSELF.
Pemisire opens the front door and walks inside.
[Door clicking, door slamming, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, UH-OH. HEY, PEMISIRE. THERE'S STILL A WHOLE OTHER PART OF THE ERRAND TO FINISH.
Inside the house, Pemisire and Funmi unpack the food. Outside, Oreofe dances beside the front steps.
Colin narrates, SO, WHILE ORE DOES A LITTLE DANCE OUTSIDE, FOOD COMES TO THE RESCUE ONE MORE TIME.
Pemisire packs pizza slices into a bag.
Pemisire says, I'M TAKING IT WITH ME.
Funmi says, OKAY.
Subtitle: “Ore, we’re using this as a power-up snack.”
Funmi says, OH, OKAY, WHEN YOU'RE OUT OF POWER, YOU CAN EAT THE POWER-UP SNACK. THANK YOU, GUYS. LOVE YOU. THANKS FOR HELPING MOMMY.
[Funmi blowing kiss]
Funmi says, SEE YOU.
Pemisire says, OOH, OOH, OOH, OOH.
Oreofe looks at pizza crumbs on the ground.
Oreofe says, THAT WAS THE PIZZA THAT IT FELL DOWN ON THE FLOOR.
Pemisire says, I NEED TO STOP. I NEED A POWER-UP SNACK.
Pemisire kneels on the sidewalk and eats pizza.
Oreofe says, NO EATING ON THE STREET. REMEMBER WHAT DADDY SAID AND MOMMY, NO EATING ON THE STREET.
Oreofe jumps from a sidewalk to a lawn.
Oreofe says, OOF! AH! LET'S JUST KEEP GOING.
Colin narrates, AT LAST. THE PHARMACY.
Pemisire holds the door open, and Oreofe walks into the pharmacy.
Oreofe says, I THINK THAT THEY HAVE TOOTHPASTE.
Colin narrates, AND THEY FOUND THE TOOTHPASTE.
Oreofe says, THAT'S TOOTHPASTE.
Oreofe says, DAH! DAH! DAH! I LIKE THIS ONE, TOO. THERE.
Colin narrates, AND THE TOOTHBRUSHES. AND NOW, TO PAY.
Pemisire leaves the store. Oreofe follows him to the door and then walks back into the pharmacy.
Colin narrates, OR, MAYBE NOT.
Oreofe says, BROTHER, WE HAVE TO PAY.
An employee asks, DO YOU NEED ANY HELP?
Oreofe says, HUH?
The employee asks, ARE YOU HERE BY YOURSELVES?
Pemisire re-enters the pharmacy.
Pemisire says, YEAH.
The employee says, OKAY, LET ME JUST CALCULATE. YOU CAN HOLD YOUR BAG.
Pemisire takes bills out of his money bag.
Pemisire says, UM, WOULD YOU TAKE THIS?
The employee says, PERFECT. OKAY. YOU GOOD TO GO. YOU CAN GO.
Colin narrates, SO WHILE ORE DISTRACTS THE PHARMACY LADY, PEMISIRE GRABS A COUPLE OF CANDY RINGS FOR THE ROAD.
Oreofe talks to the employee. Pemisire reaches up and takes two candy rings from a box. He gives on to Oreofe.
Pemisire says, OH, THIS ONE'S FOR YOU.
Colin narrates, BONNIE AND CLYDE HAVE NOTHING ON THESE TWO.
The employee says, NICE TO SEE YOU, GUYS.
Oreofe says, BYE.
The employee says, COME AGAIN.
Oreofe says, OKAY. BYE.
They leave the pharmacy.
Oreofe says, BROTHER, THAT WAS—
Pemisire says, THAT'S GONNA BE A LONG DAY.
Oreofe says, YES.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, AH, FINALLY THE PEACEFUL JOURNEY HOME, AFTER A HARD DAY'S WORK. AS LONG AS NOTHING ELSE GOES WRONG, I THINK IT'S SAFE TO SAY THEY DID IT.
A can falls through the bottom of Pemisire’s bag.
Colin narrates, AND THE BAG HAS A HOLE IN IT.
Pemisire says, HEY, ONE OF THE MOUNTAIN DEWS.
Oreofe stops by a crossing guard and looks back at Pemisire.
Oreofe says, BROTHER!
Pemisire puts the candy ring package in his mouth, holds the can in his hand, and holds the bag in his other hand.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, AND THAT'S WHAT I CALL USING YOUR HEAD. AND YOUR HANDS, AND YOUR TEETH.
[Pemisire giggling]
In front of the house, Funmi says, YAY! YOU ARE BACK!
[Applause]
Funmi hugs Oreofe.
Funmi says, HEY, GUYS.
Oreofe says, EVEN BROTHER GOT SNACKS.
Funmi says, THANK YOU.
Funmi hugs Pemisire.
Pemisire asks, CAN I OPEN THE DOOR NOW?
Funmi says, MMM!
In the interview, Funmi says, I'M SUPER PROUD OF THEM.
On the front steps, Funmi sits with her arms around Oreofe and Pemisire’s shoulders.
Funmi says, IT'S REALLY GOES A LONG WAY TO SHOW THAT WHEN WE EMPOWER YOU, THERE IS NOTHING YOU CANNOT DO.
In the interview, Funmi says, THEY WERE SO GREAT. THEY WERE BRAVE. THEY WERE DISCIPLINED.
In the house, Funmi asks, WHO IS READY FOR SOME PIZZA PARTY?
Oreofe and Pemisire say, ME!
In the interview, Tolu says, WHEN THEY ARE AROUND EACH OTHER, LIKE, THEY COME ALIVE.
Funmi agrees, OH, YEAH.
At a dining room table, Funmi puts down pizza slices.

In the interview, Funmi says, WHAT HAPPENED TODAY AFFIRMED WHAT WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO INCULCATE IN THEM. THEY WENT ALL OUT, AND DID ALL OF THE TASKS I GAVE THEM, DONE.
Tolu opens the box with the Hawaiian pizza. The slices are piled on one side of the box.
Funmi says, OH, MY GOD.
Tolu says, WOW.
Both parents ask, WHAT HAPPENED HERE?
Oreofe shrugs and says, ME.
In the interview, Funmi says, THE PIZZA DIDN'T LOOK GOOD. BUT IT DID TASTE GOOD. AND I ATE IT, BECAUSE IT WAS MY BABIES' FIRST TASK FOR ME, GETTING PIZZA.
At the dining room table, Tolu says, YOU DID A GOOD JOB.
Everyone chanting, MORE PIZZA PARTY, MORE PIZZA PARTY, MORE PIZZA PARTY!

[Vehicle engines humming]
Colin narrates, AHH, LIFE IN THE CANADIAN SUBURBS. WHERE EVERYTHING IS QUIET, AND PEACEFUL, AND FAMILY LIFE IS AS PERFECT AS IT GETS. AND GROWING UP FAST IS SIX-YEAR-OLD, RANISHA.
In a backyard, the black-haired girl stands behind a small goal net. The black-haired boy kicks a red ball, and it bounces off the net. Behind them is a man with a shaved head, black beard, and moustache. He wears a grey and black sweater over a blue shirt. A woman with long black hair and light brown highlights stands with her hands in the pockets of her dark blue jacket.

[Vacuum humming]
Ranisha says, NOW, PUSH IT, PUSH IT.

In the backyard, Rishaal kicks the ball, and Ranisha lifts the net off the grass.
The black-haired woman says, RANISHA!
[Laughing]
In an interview, the man with the shaved head, Hitesh, sits beside the black-haired woman, Rupita.
Rupita says, SHE SEES THAT A LOT OF HER FRIENDS, AND THAT THEY'RE BEING INDEPENDENT. SHE SEES THAT THEY'RE VENTURING OFF AND DOING STUFF, AND SHE WANTS TO TRY AND DO THOSE THINGS NOW.
In the backyard, Rupita says, PLAY NICE. SHARE. SHARE, PLEASE.
[Vehicle engines humming]
Colin narrates, ALTHOUGH HER MOM IS TOTALLY COOL LETTING RANISHA SPREAD HER WINGS, HER DAD, ER, NOT SO MUCH.
[Rishaal giggling]
In the living room, Hitesh says, HEY, HEY, DUDE, NO JUMPING ON THE COUCH. GET DOWN!
[Rishaal giggling]
In the interview, Rupita says, YOU'RE DEFINITELY HELICOPTER.
Hitesh says, I JUST DON'T WANT TO SEE MY KIDS GET HURT.
In the living room, Hitesh tickles Ranisha.
[Laughing, shrieking]
In the interview, Rupita says, I THINK THAT BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN RAISED VERY DIFFERENTLY, THAT IT'S JUST REFLECTIVE ON THE WAY THAT...
Hitesh says, YEAH. EXACTLY.
Rupita says, WE HANDLE THE KIDS, RIGHT?
Hitesh says, YOU KNOW, I DIDN'T DO ALL THE ADVENTUROUS AND EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES THAT RUPITA DID WHEN SHE WAS RAISED, UM... THAT'S WHERE ALL MY HELICOPTER PARENTING COMES IN. THIS OPPORTUNITY IS AS MUCH FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO SEE THAT RANISHA CAN DO THIS TASK.
In the living room, Ranisha rides on Hitesh’s back.
[Laughing]
In the interview, Rupita says, AND I THINK FOR ME, IT'S JUST AN AMAZING WAY TO SORT OF BE LIKE, "TOLD YOU SO."
[Rupita laughing]
Hitesh says, IF IT'S NOT, IT WILL BE A COMPLETE "I TOLD YOU SO" THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
Yellow leaves blow across a side street.
[Leaves rustling, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR AN ERRAND, BUT TO RANISHA, IT'S JUST ANOTHER REGULAR MORNING, AS MOM DROPS THE KIDS OFF AT GRANDMA'S BEFORE HEADING IN TO WORK.
Rishaal opens the front door to Grandma’s house.
Rishaal shouts, OH YES, HELLO!
Rupita says, HELLO!
Colin narrates, BUT WHAT RANISHA DOESN'T KNOW IS THAT OUR OLD ENOUGH! CREW HAS ALREADY RIGGED THE HOUSE WITH HIDDEN CAMERAS, BECAUSE MOM'S GOT SOMETHING ELSE PLANNED, AND BOTH DAD, AND GRANDMA, ARE IN ON THE ACTION.
In the living room, Grandma sits on a couch. She has long black hair, eyeglasses, a black cardigan, a white shirt, and blue jeans. Rupita sits on another couch across from Grandma.
Rupita says, OKAY, SO, RANISHA, I HAVE TO GO TO WORK SOON, SO CAN I PLEASE ASK YOU TO DO ME A FAVOR?
Ranisha says, YEP.
Rupita says, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE LUNCH TOGETHER, RIGHT? BUT DIDA CAN'T LEAVE. DIDA HAS TO STAY HERE. I HAVE TO GO TO WORK. CAN I ASK YOU TO PLEASE GO GET ME LUNCH?
Ranisha says, OKAY.
Rupita says, ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE OKAY WITH THAT?
Ranisha says, YEP.
Rupita asks, SHOULD WE HAVE SANDWICHES?

Grandma, also known as Dida, repeats, DONUTS?
[Rupita laughing]
Ranisha says DONUTS AND PASTA.
Rupita asks, DO YOU THINK YOU CAN GET YOUR SUITCASE FROM AUNTIE MARIA'S HOUSE?
Ranisha says, YEAH.
On an animated map, a dotted line following a small animated figure shows a path to the house next door. The figure walks up a street to an intersection. A sign reads, “Busy intersection.” The figure crosses at the intersection and walks down the street to the bakery.
Graphics of a suitcase, bread, a cheese wheel, ham, and three pies appear.
[Map rustling, popping, boinging, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, FOR HER FIRST ERRAND, RANISHA WILL WALK TO THE NEXT-DOOR NEIGHBOUR'S HOUSE TO PICK UP A SUITCASE THAT THE FAMILY NEEDS FOR THEIR UPCOMING TRIP. HER LUGGAGE IN TOW, SHE'LL HEAD BACK TOWARDS GRANDMA'S HOUSE, DOWN THE STREET, AND THROUGH THE QUIET NEIGHBOURHOOD.
THEN, SHE'LL HIT A BUSY INTERSECTION THAT SHE'LL HAVE TO CROSS TO GET TO A PLACE THAT SHE'S BEEN TO OFTEN, BUT NEVER BY HERSELF. THE LOCAL ITALIAN BAKERY. THERE, RANISHA, WILL GET TWO LOAVES OF BREAD, MOZZARELLA CHEESE, AND HAM TO MAKE SANDWICHES, ALONG WITH AN APPLE, CHERRY, AND BLUEBERRY PIE.
RANISHA WILL HAVE HER HANDS FULL, BECAUSE SHE WILL ALSO NEED TO TAKE HER CHAOTIC LITTLE BROTHER, RISHAAL, ALONG WITH HER.
A photograph of Rishaal appears on the map.
[Giggling, slide whistle]
[Upbeat music plays]
In the interview, Rupita says, I DEFINITELY THINK THAT RANISHA IS READY FOR THIS, BUT I THINK WITH RISHAAL, IT CAN GO TWO WAYS. EITHER HE CAN BE COOPERATIVE, AND HE CAN JUST LIKE, GO ALONG WITH HER, OR HE CAN BE SUPER DISTRACTING, AND CAN TOTALLY THROW HER OFF HER GAME.
Rupita helps Ranisha and Rishaal put on their coats.
Rupita says, OKAY.
Rishaal says, MOMMY!
Ranisha says, HEY, HOW ABOUT AN UMBRELLA, I WANT UMBRELLA.
In the interview, Hitesh says, THE WHOLE TIME THAT THEY'RE OUT THERE, I WILL BE STRESSED OUT OF MY MIND.
[Hitesh and Rupita chuckling]
Ranisha and Rishaal leave the house. Rupita stands at the front door.
Rupita asks, WHAT'S THE MAIN THING I WANT YOU TO FOCUS ON?
[Rupita laughing]
She says, THE SAFETY OF YOUR BROTHER, OKAY?
Ranisha says, COME ON, RISHAAL!
[Energetic music plays]
In the interview, Hitesh says, LET'S JUST FAST-FORWARD IN TIME, AND GET THEM BACK.
Colin narrates, WITH SO MUCH RIDING ON THREE-YEAR-OLD RISHAAL, IT'S A GOOD THING THE FIRST STOP IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER.
Ranisha says, COME ON.
Ranisha leads Rishaal up a driveway. Auntie Marie opens her front door.
Auntie Maria says, HELLO, MY SWEETIES.
Ranisha says, HI.
Auntie Maria asks, HOW ARE YOU?
Auntie Maria hugs Ranisha and kisses her on the top of her head.
[Smooching]
Ranisha says, GOOD. WE NEED A SUITCASE NOW.
Auntie Maria says, OH, OKAY, I'LL GET IT FOR YOU.
[Door creaking]
Auntie Maria brings the grey suitcase outside.
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT! PART ONE OF THE ERRAND IS COMPLETE. AND SO FAR, RANISHA HAS MANAGED TO NOT LOSE A RISHAAL.
[Humming, leaves rustling]
Rishaal asks, WHAT ARE WE GETTING FOR LUNCH?
Ranisha says, YEAH. ARE WE GOING TO GET A SANDWICH?
Subtitle: “Yeah, and a donut!”
Colin narrates, SOMEBODY BETTER GET THIS KID A DONUT.
[Upbeat music plays]
Inside Dida’s house, Rupita looks out the window.
Hitesh asks, HOW'D IT GO? HOW'D IT GO? HOW'D IT GO?
Rupita says, I THINK IT WENT GOOD. OH, WAIT. THERE SHE IS. LOOK, LOOK, LOOK.
Hitesh says, WHERE?
Rupita says, YOU CAN SEE.
Ranisha and Rishaal walk past with the suitcase.
Rupita says, THEY'RE JUST WALKING RIGHT NOW. IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S GOING GOOD.
On the couch, Hitesh says, I STILL HAVE ANXIETY, THOUGH. WAITING FOR THEM TO COME BACK.
Rupita says, NO, NO.
[Upbeat music plays]
Subtitle: “Our three pies are at the store.”
A crossing guard waits at the corner of the street.
Ranisha says, HELP PRESS THE BUTTON.
Rishaal pushes the button, and they cross the street.
Colin narrates, THIS SEEMS ALMOST TOO EASY.
[Music stops]
Rishaal falls down on the sidewalk.
Ranisha asks, YOU OKAY?
Colin narrates, OOPS. SPOKE TOO SOON.

A customer holds the door open for the siblings. Inside are displays filled with pastries and cookies.
Colin narrates, NOW, HOW DO YOU EXPECT TWO SMALL KIDS TO REMEMBER WHAT THEY NEED FOR LUNCH WHEN THERE'S SO MUCH OF THIS AROUND?
THANKFULLY, RANISHA'S GOT ADDED HELP FROM RITA, THE BAKERY'S OWNER, WHO SHE KNOWS QUITE WELL.
Ranisha says, HI, RITA.
Rita says, HI, THERE. YOU GUYS ARE ALL BY YOURSELVES?
Ranisha says, YEAH.
[Background chatter, other customers chuckling]
Rita says, SO GROWN UP. SO, WHAT CAN I HELP YOU WITH?
Ranisha asks, WHAT THINGS DO YOU NEED TO MAKE A SANDWICH?
Colin narrates, I'D SAY THAT'S A PRETTY IMPORTANT QUESTION WHEN GETTING SANDWICH ITEMS.
Rita says, WELL, WE NEED BREAD TO MAKE A SANDWICH.
Ranisha says, YEAH. I NEED TWO LOAVES OF BREAD.
Rita says, AND LET'S CHECK OUT THE DELI COUNTER. COME.
Rishaal says, YEAH.

Ranisha says, YES.
Rita says, MOZZARELLA.
Ranisha nods.
Rita says, OKAY, MOZZARELLA.
Ranisha says, MY MOMMY WANTS SOME OF THAT FOOD.
Rita says, SOME HAM? SURE.
Rishaal dances behind Ranisha.
Colin narrates, HEY, IT'S NO DONUT, BUT CLEARLY, RISHAAL LIKES THAT IDEA.
Ranisha says, COME ON, RISHAAL, CASH OUT.
Rishaal says, YEAH. CASH OUT.
[Background chatter, clattering]
Ranisha says, RITA, I FORGOT ONE MORE THING. I NEED ANOTHER THING.
Rita asks, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE?
Ranisha says, UM... THREE PIES. I NEED CHERRY, AND BLUEBERRY, AND APPLE, PLEASE.
Rita says, OKAY.
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT, RANISHA. YOU GOT EVERYTHING ON THE LIST, AND KEPT RISHAAL IN CHECK. NOT BAD. I'D SAY THAT WAS A PRETTY SUCCESSFUL ERRAND. EXCEPT...
Ranisha says, I NEED TO START OPENING MY SUITCASE.
Ranisha stares at the pile of groceries on the counter.
Colin narrates, NOW SHE NEEDS TO CARRY ALL THIS STUFF HOME. WELL, IF MOM'S GOING TO MAKE YOU BRING A SUITCASE ALONG, MIGHT AS WELL PUT IT TO GOOD USE.
Ranisha packs the groceries into the suitcase.
Rita says, PUT THAT THERE.
[Rustling]
Ranisha says, LOTS.
Rita says, YES, LOTS. OKAY, NOW, WE WON'T PUT THE PIES IN, SO YOU'LL CARRY THE PIES? OKAY, YOUR BROTHER CAN HELP YOU WITH THE--

Colin narrates, BUT RIGHT WHEN YOU THINK SHE'S GIVEN UP, RANISHA DECIDES SHE'S NOT TAKING "NO" FOR AN ANSWER.
Ranisha runs to Rishaal, takes his hand, and leads him back to the pies and the suitcase.
Subtitle: “I want to hold blueberry pie.”
Ranisha says, COME. OKAY, AND YOU'RE GOING TO HOLD IT, OKAY?
Rishaal says, OKAY.
Ranisha gives Rishaal the blueberry pie.
Ranisha says, OKAY, NOW, WAIT, WAIT.
Rishaal slowly walks away from Ranisha.
[Upbeat music plays]
Ranisha gathers the two pies, the umbrella, and the suitcase.
Ranisha says, WAIT. WAIT, RISHAAL.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, THERE YOU GO, RANISHA. TAMING YOUR WILD LITTLE BROTHER IS ALL A PART OF GROWING UP.
[Rishaal singing loudly]
Colin narrates, THANKS FOR THAT, RISHAAL. I WAS THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING.
Rishaal stops in the middle of a street.
Ranisha says, RISHAAL! RISHAAL! THIS WAY, THIS WAY. THIS WAY. STRAIGHT! COME, COME.
Rishaal turns and follows Ranisha.
Ranisha says, GOOD.
In front of the house, Rupita says, OH MY GOD, THERE SHE IS.
[Gasping]
Dida asks, WHERE IS SHE?
Rupita points and says, LOOK, LOOK, LOOK, LOOK.
Ranisha says, OKAY, COME, RISHAAL. COME, COME, COME, COME.
Rishaal says, YEAH.
Hitesh says, I THINK RISHAAL IS CARRYING A PIE.
Rupita says, YES, HE'S CARRYING A PIE.
Subtitle: “We’re almost there!”
Rupita shouts, HI, BABY.
Rishaal runs towards his parents and Dida with the pie.
[Upbeat music continues]
Hitesh says, HERE HE COMES, HERE HE COMES!
Rupita says, AAH!
Hitesh asks, HEY, WHAT'D YOU BUY ME?
Ranisha shouts, THE PIE IS SLIPPING!
Rupita says, YOU GOT IT. COME ON, GIRL, YOU CAN DO IT.
[Everyone laughing]
Hitesh asks, WHAT DID YOU BUY DADDY?
Rupita says, YAY! GOOD JOB.
Rishaal runs into Hitesh’s arms.
Rupita says, LET ME SEE. WHAT DID YOU BUY?
Hitesh asks, WHAT DID YOU BUY DADDY?
Down the street, Ranisha drops a pie.
Hitesh asks, OH, YOU DON'T KNOW?
Rishaal points and says, RANISHA HAS IT.
Rupita says, OKAY, GO HELP HER. HE'S COMING. DON'T WORRY.
Rishaal runs to Ranisha.
Rupita says, SHE LITERALLY JUST DROPPED THE PIE.
Rishaal takes a pie from Ranisha.
Rishaal says, LET ME GIVE IT TO DADDY.
In the interview, Rupita says, I WAS IN AWE. JUST IN AWE WITH THE FACT THAT NOT ONLY DID THEY DO IT TOGETHER, BUT THAT THEY BROUGHT EVERYTHING BACK.
Rupita hugs Rishaal and says, YOU DID SO GOOD! MUAH!
[Smooching]
Hitesh picks up Ranisha.
Hitesh says, GOOD JOB, BABY!
Rupita says, BEAUTIFUL, GOOD JOB.
In the interview, Hitesh says, RANISHA IS MY LITTLE GIRL. AND SEEING HER DO ALL THIS STUFF, IT WAS VERY IMPRESSIVE. RISHAAL REALLY DID A GREAT JOB TODAY. HELD HER HAND, WALKED WITH HER, HELPED HER OUT. AND HE DOESN'T ALWAYS DO THAT STUFF WITH ME.
Rupita agrees, YEAH, THEY DID AN AMAZING JOB.
At a dining room table, Rupita says, I JUST NEED TO SAY THAT THIS WAS, LIKE, A REALLY DELICIOUS LUNCH, BECAUSE OF ALL OF YOUR HARD WORK. AND I CAN'T EVEN BELIEVE THAT YOU DID ALL OF THIS WITH THIS GOOFBALL.
In the interview, Hitesh says, WHAT I'VE LEARNED FROM THIS IS, IS, YOU KNOW, RANISHA IS GROWING UP.
Ranisha takes a pie off the kitchen counter.
Rupita says, OKAY, THAT'S IT.
In the interview, Hitesh says, SHE'S NOT MY LITTLE GIRL ANYMORE.
At the dining room table, the family eats pie.
Rupita says, LOOK AT THAT. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GETTING DESSERT. WE'RE SO PROUD OF YOU.
In the interview, Hitesh says, I MAY, YOU KNOW, LET HER DO A FEW THINGS BY HERSELF, BUT I MAY WATCH A LITTLE BIT FROM A FURTHER DISTANCE, INSTEAD.
Rupita asks, SO YOU'RE STILL GONNA BE HELICOPTER?
Hitesh says, ABSOLUTELY. 100 PERCENT.
Rupita says, OH, MY GOD!
[Both laughing]
Logo: Old Enough!
[Chiming]
Geese migrate across a cloudy sky.
[Upbeat music plays, geese honking]
Colin narrates, IN A PEACEFUL ITALIAN CANADIAN SUBURB JUST NORTH OF TORONTO, LIVES A BOY WHO LIKES TO LIVEN THINGS UP. A FIVE-YEAR-OLD FIRECRACKER NAMED NOAH.
The brown-haired boy smiles. Text reads, “Age 5.”
[Noah shouts]
In an interview, Noah’s parents, the brown-haired man Diego and the blonde-haired woman Claire sit together in a living room.
Diego says, HE'S JUST AWESOME.
[Claire laughing]
Claire says, THAT'S TRUE, HE IS AWESOME.
In the living room, Diego and Noah kneel beside a car playmate.
Noah says, YOU GO THIS WAY, AND I GO THIS WAY.
Diego says, OKAY.
[Gentle music plays]
Colin narrates, NOAH'S PARENTS ARE BASICALLY HIS BEST FRIENDS.
Outside, Diego holds Noah’s hands as he walks a rock ledge.
Diego says, JUMP ON THIS ONE.
Colin narrates, THEY DO EVERYTHING TOGETHER.
In the interview, Diego says, MY PARENTING STYLE IS MORE OF A PARENTING, SLASH, BUDDY.
Colin narrates, AND BECAUSE OF THAT, NOAH'S NEVER REALLY DONE
ANYTHING ON HIS OWN. BUT MOM AND DAD THINK AN IMPORTANT PART OF GROWING UP IS MAKING MISTAKES.
In the kitchen, Noah stirs ingredients in a bowl with a whisk. Claire takes the whisk and stirs faster.
Claire says, AROUND, AND AROUND.
Noah says, NO, YOU DO IT. YOU DO IT.
Claire says, OKAY. OKAY.
Colin narrates, WITHOUT YOUR PARENTS ALWAYS COMING TO THE RESCUE.
Noah pours flour into a bowl.
Claire says, WHOA! THAT'S OKAY.
In the interview, Claire says, MY PARENTS, THEY ALLOWED ME TO MAKE MY OWN DECISIONS, AND THEY ALLOWED ME TO BREAK MOULDS OF THE TRADITIONAL
ITALIAN FAMILIES.
In the living room, Noah runs in circles with a vacuum cleaner.
[Vacuum humming, Noah cackling]
In the interview, Claire says, SO THEY KIND OF INSTILLED THOSE VALUES IN ME THAT I WANT TO PASS DOWN TO NOAH TO BE HIS OWN PERSON.
Outside, Claire lifts Noah onto the rock ledge.
[Clucking tongue]
Claire says, OKAY, THERE WE GO.
Colin narrates, NOAH'S PARENTS CLEARLY THINK HE'S READY TO VENTURE OUT OF HIS COMFORT ZONE...
On the ledge, Noah shouts, AAAH!
Colin narrates, AND RUN AN ERRAND WITHOUT THEIR HELP. TO SHOW HIM HE DOESN'T ALWAYS NEED MUM AND DAD BY HIS SIDE.
In the interview, Claire says, I'M OBVIOUSLY HOPING FOR THE BEST, BUT MENTALLY PREPARING MYSELF FOR THE ABSOLUTE WORST.
In a garage, Diego puts a plank of wood on a table. Noah, wearing safety goggles, stands beside him.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, IT'S A BIG DAY IN NOAH'S NEIGHBOURHOOD, BECAUSE HE AND HIS DAD ARE SPENDING THE MORNING BUILDING A BIRDHOUSE TOGETHER IN THE GARAGE.
In the garage, Diego says, SO WE'RE GOING TO CUT A PIECE LIKE THIS.
Colin narrates, AND A COUPLE OF BLOCKS AWAY, AT NOAH'S GRANDPARENTS' HOUSE, HIS NONNO IS ALSO BUSY RENOVATING HIS BASEMENT.
At Nonno’s house, he takes a drill out of a case. Nonno has short grey hair and wears a red, white, and black plaid shirt, eyeglasses, and blue jeans.
Colin narrates, DAD AND NONNO ARE ALWAYS TRADING TOOLS FOR THEIR VARIOUS CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS, SO TODAY, NOAH MIGHT NEED TO MAKE A FEW TRIPS BACK AND FORTH TO HELP THEM OUT.
In the garage, Diego asks, YOU READY? OKAY.
Noah says, YEAH.
Noah covers his ears. Diego cuts the wood with a buzz saw.
[Buzz saw whirrs]
In the interview, Claire says, SO, NOAH HAS WALKED VERY MANY TIMES TO MY PARENTS' HOUSE, WHICH IS AROUND THE CORNER, BUT HE'S NEVER DONE IT ON HIS OWN, SO THAT COULD PRESENT US WITH A CHALLENGE.
Diego says, HE MIGHT BE SCARED.
[Cheerful music plays]
Colin narrates, HERE COMES MOM WITH SOME SOUP SHE MADE FOR NONNO. GRAB SOME POPCORN. LET'S SEE IF NOAH'S READY TO GO ON HIS VERY FIRST ERRAND.
Claire carries a large pot of soup into the garage and puts it on the table.
Claire says, MOMMY NEEDS YOU TO DO ME A REALLY, REALLY BIG FAVOUR.
Noah asks, WHAT?
Claire asks, CAN YOU BRING THIS OVER TO NONNO'S HOUSE FOR ME?
Noah says, IT'S TOO HEAVY.
Claire says, IT'S NOT TOO HEAVY. YOU ARE SUPER STRONG. I THINK YOU CAN HANDLE IT.
MOMMY HAS TO STAY BACK HERE AND COOK, AND DADDY'S GOING TO FINISH THE BIRDHOUSE. BUT I THINK THAT YOU COULD DO IT ON YOUR OWN.
Subtitle: “I don’t want to do it by myself.”
Colin narrates, COME ON, NOAH, DO IT FOR NONNO.
Claire says, I KNOW, BUT HE NEEDS YOUR HELP. HE NEEDS SOME SOUP BECAUSE
HE'S WORKING IN THE BASEMENT, AND HE'S REALLY HUNGRY. WE GOT TO FEED HIM. I THINK YOU CAN DO IT.
Subtitle: “I’m not doing it by myself!”
In the interview, Claire says, IF NOAH IS IN THAT MOOD WHERE HE'S NOT WANTING TO DO SOMETHING AND THAT REAL ITALIAN CALABRESE STYLE IS COMING OUT, WE'RE NOT REALLY SURE WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.
In the garage, Claire says, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO.
Noah says, I DON'T WANT TO.
Colin narrates, WHEN LIFE LESSONS FAIL, TRY PLAYING THE GRANDPARENT CARD.
In the garage, Claire asks, YOU WANT TO GIVE NONNO A PHONE CALL, SWEETHEART?
Noah says, YEAH.
Claire says, OKAY, LET'S GIVE HIM A CALL. OKAY?
[Phone ringing]
On the cellphone, Nonno says, HEY, BUDDY. HOW YOU DOING?
Noah says, GOOD.
Nonno says, I AM REALLY EXCITED TO SEE YOU COMING TO MY HOUSE. JUST FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES.
Noah says, YEAH.
Nonno says, I JUST HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF WORK I NEED A HAND WITH, MAYBE YOU CAN GIVE ME A HAND?
Noah says enthusiastically, OKAY, I'LL DO IT.
[Bright music plays]
Nonno says, THANK YOU. APPRECIATE IT. SEE YOU SOON.
Claire says, OKAY. BYE, DAD.
Noah repeats, BYE, DAD.
Claire ends the phone call. Noah hits the table.
[Tapping, upbeat music plays]
Claire says, OKAY. YOU THINK YOU CAN GO OVER THERE AND HELP HIM OUT?
Noah says, YEAH!
Claire says, YEAH! AWESOME.
Claire and Noah high-five.
[Hands slapping]
Colin narrates, PHEW. HE'S IN!
On an animated map, a dotted line following a small animated figure shows a path from Noah’s house to Nonno’s house. A sign beside an intersection reads, “Quiet intersection.” Graphics of soup and a birdhouse appear.
[Rustling, boinging, drill whirrs, birds chirping, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, NOW, TO GET THE SOUP TO NONNO, NOAH WILL ONLY NEED TO GO STRAIGHT DOWN HIS STREET. IT'S A VERY SHORT WALK, BUT ONE HE'S NEVER DONE ON HIS OWN BEFORE.
HE'LL CROSS A QUIET INTERSECTION, THEN IT IS JUST A QUICK STROLL TO NONNO'S HOUSE, WHERE HE'LL DELIVER THE SOUP, HELP NONNO WITH HIS RENOVATIONS, THEN HEAD BACK TO FINISH THE BIRDHOUSE WITH DAD. UNLESS HE NEEDS TO GO BACK TO NONNO'S AGAIN.
In front of their house, Claire and Diego watch Noah carry the soup pot along the sidewalk.
[Noah sighing heavily, energetic music plays]
Noah says, BYE.
Claire says, BYE!
Diego says, BYE, BUDDY.
Claire says to Diego, LOOK AT HIM GO. HE'S DOING A STELLAR JOB, EH?
[Diego chuckling]
Diego says, YEAH.
Noah stops at the intersection and looks both ways. He carries the pot across the street.
Noah says, NO CARS.
Colin narrates, NICE ROAD SAFETY SKILLS, NOAH!
Noah puts the pot down by the curb.
Colin narrates, OKAY, LOOKS LIKE NOAH NEEDS A LITTLE REST.
Noah bounces behind the pot.
Colin narrates, OH! AND A DANCE BREAK. FOR A KID WHO DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE MOM AND DAD... NOAH SEEMS TO BE HAVING A PRETTY GOOD TIME ON HIS OWN.
[Upbeat music plays]
Noah turns the corner and carries the pot across lawns.
Noah says, OVER HERE. WHEW! I'M GETTING TIRED. WHEW! I'M ALMOST THERE. I'M TAKING A LONG WALK.
[Pot clunking]
Colin narrates, A SHORT WALK DEFINITELY FEELS LONG WHEN YOU'RE LUGGING A POT OF SOUP FOUR TIMES BIGGER THAN YOUR HEAD.
Noah puts the pot down on the road and stares at it.
[Noah sighing, clunking]
Colin narrates, YOU'RE SO CLOSE TO NONNO'S HOUSE. COME ON, NOAH! DON'T TURN BACK NOW.
Noah picks up the pot.
Subtitle: “I’m going still.”
Colin narrates, THAT'S THE SPIRIT. AND HE MADE IT.
Noah opens the front door of Nonno’s house.
[Laughing]
Nonno says, OH! HI, BUDDY!
Nonno hugs Noah.
Nonno says, OH. WHAT DID YOU BRING ME?
Noah jumps out onto the front porch and lands beside the pot.
Nonno says, OH, YOU BROUGHT ME SOUP?
Noah says, YEAH.
Nonno carries the soup inside and Noah follows him.
Nonno says, WELL, COME ON IN. COME, COME. IT'S COLD OUT THERE. CAN YOU HELP ME WITH SOMETHING DOWNSTAIRS?
Noah asks, WHAT?
Nonno says, OKAY. COME OVER HERE. TAKE YOUR COAT OFF.
[Upbeat music plays]
Nonno puts a yellow hard hat on Noah’s head.
Colin narrates, WITH THE SOUP DELIVERED, IT'S TIME TO HELP NONNO WITH HIS CONSTRUCTION PROJECT. DOWN THEY GO INTO NONNO'S BASEMENT, WHERE OUR CAMERA CREW IS DISGUISED AS WORKERS HELPING WITH NONNO'S RENOVATIONS.
Nonno says, OKAY. YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT YOU TO DO? I WANT YOU TO HELP ME WITH THIS DRYWALL.
Noah says, DRYWALL? WHERE DOES IT GO?
Nonno says, IT GOES RIGHT OVER THERE. BUT YOU'VE GOT TO HELP ME MOVE IT OVER, BECAUSE MY BACK IS A LITTLE HURT RIGHT NOW. COULD YOU DO THAT FOR ME?
Noah says, NO PROBLEM.
Noah pushes the drywall.
[Grunting]
Nonno says, PUSH IT A LITTLE BIT MORE? GIVE ME-- GIVE A LITTLE KICK.
Noah kicks the bottom of the drywall panel.
[Thumping]
Nonno says, OKAY, NOW.
Noah says, HAH-- OOH!
[Thump]
Colin narrates, HE SAID A LITTLE KICK. NOT A FULL ROUNDHOUSE.
[Upbeat music continues]
Nonno says, GRAB THAT PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER, THERE.
Noah asks, THIS ONE?
Nonno says, YEAH.
Noah says, I KNOW. I CAN SCREW IT. WHICH WAY, LIKE, THIS WAY OR THAT WAY?
Nonno says, THIS WAY.
Noah says, CLOCK.
Nonno says, CLOCKWISE. EXACTLY. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN DO THAT ONE THERE. OKAY, I'LL HOLD IT FOR YOU.
Noah turns the screwdriver.
Subtitle: “What? I’m taking it out, bro.”
[Nonno laughing]
Colin narrates, YEAH, BRO. HE'S TAKING IT OUT. SHEESH.
Nonno says, I'M YOUR BRO NOW? OKAY. BEAUTY, LOOK AT THAT.
Noah gives Nonno the screwdriver.
Noah says, HERE YOU GO.
[Noah exclaims]
Nonno says, COME ON, LET'S GO.
[Gentle music plays]
Upstairs, Nonno says, WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT? THANK YOU. I HOPE I SEE YOU SOON.
Nonno opens the door, and Noah walks outside.
[Door clicking]
Noah says, I'M BACK OUT.
Nonno says, OKAY, BUDDY, I LOVE YOU. COME AND SEE ME SOON, OKAY?
[Upbeat music plays]
Noah runs along the grass.
Noah shouts, OKAY.
Colin narrates, AND HE DID IT. SEE, NOAH? THAT WASN'T SO HARD. NOW, HEAD BACK HOME, AND HELP DAD WITH THAT BIRDHOUSE.
Noah says, GO! GO! GO! YES!
[Upbeat music plays]
In front of the house, Claire cheers, YAY!
[Applause]
Noah runs to Claire, and she hugs him.
[Both laughing]
Claire cheers, YOU DID IT!
Colin narrates, SO, REMEMBER WHEN I SAID NOAH MIGHT BE MAKING A FEW MORE TRIPS?
[Music stops]
Deigo holds a level taller than he is.
Diego asks, CAN YOU DO ME A FAVOUR? NONNO HAS A LEVEL, IT'S TOO SMALL.
Claire says, UH-OH.
Diego says, HE NEEDS THIS BIG ONE. CAN YOU BRING THIS BACK TO NONNO? LOOK HOW BIG THIS IS.
Noah says, HOLY! OH MY. IT'S TALLER THAN YOU.
Colin narrates, AND DAD ALSO NEEDS HIM TO BRING BACK A FEW TOOLS FOR THE BIRDHOUSE.
Diego says, SCREWDRIVER. PHILLIPS.
Noah says, YES!
Diego says, YOU KNOW WHICH ONE THAT IS?
Noah says, YES.
Diego says, IT'S A STAR. A TAPE MEASURE AND A HAMMER. READY?
Noah says, YEAH.
Diego says, HIGH FIVE?
Noah taps Diego’s elbow with the level.
[Upbeat music plays]
Noah says, BOOM.
Diego says, AND, GO!
Noah turns and runs.
Noah says, GO, GO, GO.
Claire says, GOOD JOB, BUDDY.
Diego says, SLOW DOWN THERE, SPEEDSTER!
In the interview, Diego says, I THOUGHT THERE WAS GONNA BE A LITTLE BIT OF PUSHBACK WHEN IT CAME TO DOING THE SECOND ERRAND, BUT THERE WAS ZERO. HE WAS JUST-- GO.
On the sidewalk, Noah says, HOLY, THIS IS COLD.
[Sighing]
Noah says, THAT CAR IS GONE. OH, NO! RUN!
Noah runs across the intersection.
Noah says, RUN!
[Lever clattering against ground]
Noah says, OH. WAIT. AH!
[Panting]
Noah stops and crouches. He stands up and keeps walking.
Noah says, I'LL JUST KEEP GOING. I'M NOT GOING BACK HOME. NO! NOT GOING! NO, NO.
Colin narrates, LOOK AT NOAH'S CONFIDENCE. IT'S LIKE HE'S GROWING UP RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES. OH, WATER BOTTLE!
Noah stomps on a plastic water bottle.
[Plastic crunching]
Noah says, AH!
Noah carries the level up Nonno’s front steps.
[Happy music plays]
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT, NOAH IS BACK AT NONNO'S WITH THE EIGHT-BILLION-FOOT LEVEL.
Nonno says, OH, MY GOD.
[Level clattering]
Noah says, HERE YOU GO.
Nonno asks, IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU NEED?
Noah nods.
Nonno says, YEAH? WELL, LET'S GO DOWNSTAIRS.
Nonno asks, LET'S SEE WHAT WE CAN GET, OKAY?
Noah says, LET'S GO GET IT.
Nonno says, I GOTTA WORK ON THE DRYWALL, OKAY?
Noah runs into a tool room.
Noah says, I KNOW A HAMMER. I KNOW HAMMERS. HAMMERS! HA HA! A HAMMER! TAPE MEASURE, WHERE ARE YOU?
Noah holds a tape measure and a hammer.
Noah says, YES, YES, YES, YES.
Noah takes a screwdriver off a peg.
Noah says, NOPE.
Subtitle: “I feel like he might like this one.”
Nonno says, I REALLY LOVE THAT LEVEL.
Noah says, YEAH.
Nonno says, THANK YOU FOR BRINGING IT. YOU'RE GREAT, MAN.
Noah says, I GOT A TAPE MEASURE, SCREWDRIVER, HAMMER. THREE THINGS.
Noah taps the hammer against the screwdriver.
[Tapping]
Nonno says, GREAT JOB! SAY HI TO DADDY FOR ME.
Noah says, OKAY!
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, NOW, WHAT NOAH ALSO DOESN'T KNOW, IS THAT ALL THIS TIME,
OUR CAMERA CREW, DISGUISED AS INTERNET REPAIRMEN WORKING IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD, HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING HIM, AND KEEPING A CLOSE EYE.
[Dramatic music plays]
Noah stops walking.
Noah asks, DID HE FALL?
Noah runs to a crewmember sitting on a curb.
Noah asks, OH, BUDDY, DID YOU FALL?
The crewmember says, OH, NO. I'M JUST CHECKING THE WI-FI.
Noah says, OH, OKAY.
The crewmember says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, GOOD ACTING THERE, CAMERAMAN. I SMELL AN EMMY.
[Upbeat music plays]
In front of the house, Diego says, YES!
Noah says, I GOT ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU NEEDED.
Diego says, DID YOU?
Diego says, LET'S GO, LET'S SEE.
Noah says, ONE IS IN MY POCKET.
Colin narrates, TIME TO BUILD THAT BIRDHOUSE.
Noah says, HAMMER.
Diego says, GOOD JOB, MAN. HIGH FIVE? UH, NOAH?
[Dramatic music plays]
Noah asks, WHAT?
Diego asks, CAN YOU DO ME ONE BIG FAVOUR?
Noah asks, WHAT?
Diego says, I NEED SIX MORE OF THESE. NONNO HAS THEM. SIX SCREWS.
Noah says, I CAN FIND SIX.
Diego says, OKAY. SO, ONCE THESE COME, WE CAN FINISH THE BIRDHOUSE.
Noah says, YAY!
Diego says, OKAY, YOU KNOW WHAT? MAYBE GET SEVEN, JUST IN CASE THERE'S-- WE NEED A LITTLE MORE. OKAY, GOOD. GOOD JOB, BUDDY.
Noah says, BYE!
Noah runs out of the garage.
[Energetic music plays]
Colin narrates, BACK HE GOES. I WONDER IF NOAH'S MORE EXCITED TO GET THE SCREWS TO FINALLY FINISH THE BIRDHOUSE OR TO SEE HIS BEST BUD, NONNO, AGAIN?
Noah stops and holds a thin tree trunk.
Noah says, WHEW! OH, THIS IS TIRED. AH. I'M GONNA KEEP GOING.
Noah stomps on the sidewalk.
[Stomping]
Noah arrives at Nonno’s house.
Noah says, I'M BACK! DADDY SAID, I NEED SEVEN OF THESE.
Nonno says, OH.
Noah says, YEAH.
Nonno says, OH, I THINK I KNOW WHERE THEY ARE.
Noah asks, YOU KNOW?
Nonno says, YEAH.
Noah says, GOOD JOB!
Noah walks to a table in the basement. He looks into a container of screws.
Noah says, LET'S SEE.
[Screws rattling, upbeat music plays]
Noah says, OKAY, I FOUND SOME.
Noah takes one screw at a time and puts it in his pocket.
Noah says, ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN. OKAY, I GOT THEM!
Noah leaves Nonno’s house.
Nonno says, WALK CAREFULLY, OKAY?
[Energetic music plays]
Colin narrates, WITH THE THIRD TRIP ALMOST COMPLETE, NOAH FINALLY HAS EVERYTHING THEY NEED TO FINISH THE BIRDHOUSE.
Noah says, I CAN'T BELIEVE I DID IT THREE TIMES! THE FIRST TIME I WAS SCARED, BUT I DID IT.
In front of the house, Claire says, THERE HE IS. YAY!
Noah runs to Claire.
[Applause, Noah panting]
Claire says, OH, MY GOODNESS. MY BIG BOY.
[Claire laughing]
Claire hugs Noah.
Claire says, OH, MY ANGEL, YOU DID IT, MAN.
Noah says, I GOT THEM IN MY POCKET.
[Claire applauding]
Claire says, WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU.
In the interview, Claire says, NOAH DID AMAZING. AND WE'RE SO PROUD, AND SO EXCITED.
Diego asks, DID YOU GET MY SCREWS?
Noah says, YES!
Claire says, YOU DID IT!
In the interview, Claire says, HE CRUSHED IT.
Diego says, YEAH, YEAH, HE WAS AWESOME.
Later in the garage, Noah looks at the nearly finished birdhouse.
Noah says, PERFECT.
Diego says, PERFECT. AND NOW IT'S TIME FOR THE ROOF.
Noah says, ROOF!
In the interview, Claire says, WE SAW TODAY, LIKE, WHAT HE'S CAPABLE OF. AND WHEN WE'RE GIVING HIM THAT ENCOURAGEMENT AND, YOU KNOW, THE PUSH TO, TO DO BETTER, AND TO STRIVE, HE CLEARLY CAN SUCCEED.
The family walks to a small tree. Diego holds up the birdhouse and Claire picks Noah up.
Claire asks, ALL RIGHT?
In the interview, Diego says, IT'S GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO HOPEFULLY STICK WITH HIM FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.
Noah says, BYE, BIRDHOUSE, I'LL KISS YOU.
Noah kisses the birdhouse.
[Smooching]
Claire says, AWWW!
Diego says, LET'S GO INSIDE NOW.
Claire says, GREAT JOB. LET'S GO.
Noah says, THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER.

Shadows fall on the streets beneath skyscrapers in Toronto, Ontario. Wispy clouds drift in the blue sky behind the C.N. Tower.
[Vehicle horns honking, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THESE GIGANTIC TORONTO SKYSCRAPERS AND HUGE CROWDS OF BIG CITY FOLK, YOU'LL FIND A FUN-LOVING FIVE-YEAR-OLD NAMED SIMON.
Simon bounces on the bench of a picnic table on a street patio.
[Simon laughing, whooshing]
In the kitchen, Simon uses a knife to cut soft cheese while his dads supervise him. One of his dads leans against a countertop. He wears a grey cable-knit sweater and has short dark hair, a beard, and a moustache. His second dad hovers behind Simon. He wears a black shirt and eyeglasses and has short grey hair, a moustache, and a five-o’clock shadow.
Simon’s second dad says, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? WE USE THE KNIFE.
Simon’s first dad says, IT'S A WOODEN KNIFE.
In an interview, Simon’s dads sit together. Text beneath Simon’s first dad reads, “Stephane” and text beneath his second dad reads, David.”
David says, SIMON IS FEARLESS. HE'S A SUPER INDEPENDENT, WONDERFUL KID.
Stephane says, AND WE'RE HIS TWO DADS.
In the kitchen, David asks, SIMON, ARE YOU BEING VERY CAREFUL?
Simon says, YEAH.
David asks, LIKE, HOW CAREFUL?
Simon says, VERY CAREFUL.
[Gentle music plays]
Colin narrates, BEING A FEARLESS KID CAN BE HARD WHEN YOUR TWO DADS DON'T AGREE ON HOW MUCH FREEDOM YOU SHOULD HAVE.
In the interview, David says, HE'S OUR BABY BOY. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE HE'S OKAY.
Stephane says, DAVID IS ALWAYS TRYING TO PROTECT HIM.
David asks, AH-- IS THAT WRONG FOR A PARENT?
David and Simon walk together on a wide sidewalk. David moves so he walks between Simon and the street.
[Vehicle engines humming]
David says, THIS IS A VERY, VERY BUSY STREET. SO WE'RE GOING TO GO ON THIS SIDE. IS THAT OKAY?
Simon says, YEAH.
[Upbeat music plays]
Simon holds David’s hand and skips beside him.
Colin narrates, TO SHOW SIMON'S DAD, DAVID, THAT KIDS DESERVE
A LITTLE MORE FREEDOM, SIMON WILL BE GOING OUT TO RUN HIS VERY FIRST ERRAND ON HIS OWN.
In the interview, David says, I'M SO EXCITED.
David says, I'M SO STRESSED!
[Both laughing]
In the living room, Simon stands beside an older child with light brown hair. She wears a navy blue T-shirt. Simon paints the girl’s fingernails.
Colin narrates, SIMON'S BIG SISTER, FRANKIE, HAS A BIRTHDAY COMING UP.
The brown-haired girl, Frankie says, SIMON, YOU FORGOT THESE TWO SPOTS.
Simon explains, I'M GOING TO DO THEM A DIFFERENT COLOUR.
[Bottle clatters]
Colin narrates, SO THIS IS THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY FOR THIS FEARLESS FIVE-YEAR-OLD TO GO OUT ON HIS FIRST SOLO QUEST.
In the living room, Stephane sits beside Simon as Simon makes a paper fan. Simon fans Stephane.
Stephane says, OH, THAT FEELS SO--
In the kitchen, Simon puts pepper on pasta. He puts the grinder on the counter.
[Bottle tapping]
In the interview, David says, I'M JUST FEELING A BIT ANXIOUS. HE'S SO YOUNG, AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME HE'S EVER DONE SOMETHING LIKE THIS. I WILL BE DEFINITELY CONCERNED, AND WORRIED.
Orange morning light reflects off the top of the skyscrapers. On a busy street, cars drive past Gooderham Building, the Flatiron Building.

Colin narrates, FRANKIE'S BIRTHDAY HAS ARRIVED, AND THE FAMILY HAS SOMETHING BIG PLANNED FOR HER SPECIAL DAY.
David drives a car with Simon sitting in a booster seat in the backseat.
David asks, DO YOU KNOW WHAT WE WANT TO DO FOR FRANKIE?
Simon asks, WHAT?
David says, LET'S SURPRISE HER. DO YOU LIKE SURPRISES?
Simon says, YEAH. I'LL GIVE HER THE SURPRISE.
David says, OKAY, SO WHAT WE SHOULD DO, WE'RE GOING TO GO SHOPPING FOR HER, AND WE'RE GONNA HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DINNER FOR HER TONIGHT.
Simon says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT. HE'S UP TO HELP. BUT DAD HAS AN IMPORTANT BUSINESS CALL, SO HE NEEDS SIMON TO DO THE SHOPPING AT THE ICONIC ST. LAWRENCE MARKET, ALL ON HIS OWN.
In the car, David asks, ARE YOU GOOD WITH THAT?
Simon says, YEAH. SAINTS LAWRENCE MARKET, HERE WE COME.
[David laughing]
David says, WOO, WOO.
An animated map shows aisles of stalls in the market. A dotted line follows a small animated figure, showing their path through the aisles. Graphics of two red snappers, a wedge of cheese, grapes, and baguettes appear over stalls.
[Whooshing, snapping, popping, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, NOW, TO FIND ALL THE DINNER PARTY INGREDIENTS, SIMON WILL HAVE TO NAVIGATE THIS HUGE MARKET'S MAZE-LIKE AISLES, TO LOCATE ALL OF FRANKIE'S FAVOURITE FOODS.
STARTING WITH THE FISH STORE, TO PICK UP TWO RED SNAPPERS. THEN HE'LL FIND HIS WAY TO THE CHEESE SHOP, AND BUY A DELICIOUS WEDGE OF CHEESE. ONCE HE HAS THAT, HE'LL HEAD OVER TO THE FRUIT AND VEGGIE SECTION TO GRAB A CLUSTER OF JUICY GRAPES. AND THEN, FINALLY, TO THE BAKERY, TO GET TWO BIG BAGUETTES, BEFORE HEADING BACK HOME, FOR FRANKIE'S FANCY FEAST.
[Upbeat music plays]
David asks, CAN YOU SEE THIS?
David picks Simon up.
David says, THE DOOR'S RIGHT THERE.
Simon says, YEAH.
David says, OKAY, DADDY HAS TO MAKE A PHONE CALL FOR WORK. OKAY, SO I'M GOING TO BE HERE. CAN YOU GO IN AND GET THAT?
Simon says, YEAH.
David says, AND THEN MEET ME LATER, WHEN YOU'RE ALL DONE, MEET ME, LATER.
Simon says, OKAY. DO I GO THIS WAY OR THAT WAY?
[Energetic music plays]
David points and says, UH, THAT-- THAT WAY. BECAUSE THE DOOR IS RIGHT THERE.
Simon turns and runs.
Simon says, MM-HMM.
David says, OKAY, HAVE FUN!
Simon says, BYE!
David says, OKAY.
[David laughing]
Beside the car, David says, AH, THIS IS A REALLY BIG PLACE, AND HE'S A REALLY LITTLE KID. YEAH, NO, HE'LL BE FINE. DO I SOUND ANXIOUS?
[David laughing]
Simon skips into the building.
Simon mutters, YES.
Colin narrates, OKAY, TO FIND THE RED SNAPPERS, SIMON JUST NEEDS TO WALK PAST THE MEAT SECTION HERE, TO THE FAR END OF THIS AISLE. YEP, YOU'RE GOING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
Simon turns around and walks the way he came.
[Dramatic notes play]
Colin narrates, NOPE. NOT THAT WAY. UH, NO NEED TO TURN, SIMON. DON'T TURN, DON'T TURN.
Simon turns and then stops. He walks in front of the butcher counter.
Colin narrates, IT'S JUST AT THE END OF THE AISLE YOU'RE IN. YES. THAT WAY.
Simon skips quickly down the aisle.
[Energetic music plays]
Simon says, OVER HERE, LET'S GO. I'LL FIND FISH FOR HER, THAT'S--
A fish stall employee stands in front of the stall.
Simon says, HI.
The fish stall worker asks, HOW ARE YOU?
Colin narrates, RED SNAPPER IS A PRETTY FANCY FISH FOR A FIVE-YEAR-OLD. LET'S SEE IF SIMON REMEMBERS WHAT TO ORDER.
The fish stall worker says, SO, YOU SEE, WE DO HAVE THE RED SNAPPER. WE HAVE EURO BASS, AND WE HAVE THE SEA BREAM. WHICH ONE WOULD YOU LIKE?
Simon says, TWO RED SNAPPERS.
The fish stall worker says, TWO RED SNAPPERS. NO PROBLEM.
The fish stall worker gets two red snappers out of the display and weighs them.
[Upbeat music plays]
The fish stall worker says, IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I CAN HELP YOU WITH?
Simon says, I THINK THAT'S IT.
The fish stall worker says, NO PROBLEM.
Simon asks, DO YOU-- DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE GRAPES AND THE LEDGE CHEESES ARE?
Colin narrates, LEDGE CHEESES, WEDGES OF CHEESE, GIVE THE KID A BREAK, IT'S HIS FIRST TIME DOING THIS.
The fish stall worker gives Simon a bag, and Simon pays.
[Rustling]
The fish stall worker says, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Simon asks, SO, NOW CAN YOU LEAD ME TO THE GRAPES AND THE LEDGES OF CHEESE?
The fish stall worker points and says, IT'S RIGHT HERE IN THE CORNER, I BELIEVE, SO.
Colin narrates, AND HE'S OFF TO THE CHEESE.
Simon bounces the bag on the floor behind him as he walks through a crowd.
[Squelching, happy music plays]
Colin narrates, OH, OOH. THOSE POOR FISH.
Simon says, THIS PLACE IS--THAT WAS A LOT OF WALKING.
Simon carries the bag to a cheese stall.
Simon says, MY NAME IS SIMON. I'M GETTING THE TASTIEST AND LARGEST CHEESE YOU HAVE.
The cheese stall employee picks up a quarter of a wheel of cheese.
The cheese stall employee asks, HOW ABOUT THIS BEAUTIFUL BEEMSTER CHEESE?
Simon says, I JUST NEED-- YEAH, A BIG CHUNK OF IT.
The cheese stall employee says, I'LL GIVE YOU HALF. HUGE.
[Tapping]
Simon says, OKAY.
The cheese stall employee says, BEAUTIFUL. LET ME PUT IT IN A BAG. I'LL GIVE IT TO YOU, OKAY?
Simon says, OKAY. NOW I NEED TO CARRY TWO HEAVY BAGS.
The cheese stall employee says, YEAH, I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU'RE GOING TO CARRY IT. IT'S CRAZY.
Simon pays for the cheese.
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT. GOT THE LEDGE OF CHEESE. I MEAN, WEDGE OF CHEESE. SIMON, YOU'VE GOT ME DOING IT NOW.
The cheese stall employee says, NOW YOU HAVE TO PUT THIS MONEY IN YOUR WALLET. SO YOU CAN GIVE IT BACK TO MOMMY AND DADDY.
Simon says, I DON'T HAVE A MOM, I HAVE TWO DADS.
The cheese stall employee says, VERY GOOD. THAT'S EXCELLENT. AND THIS BAG IS FOR YOU TO TAKE HOME. DO YOU NEED ANY HELP? DO YOU WANT TO PUT IT OVER YOUR SHOULDER SO IT WON'T BE THAT HARD?
Simon says, OKAY.
The cheese stall employee says, VERY GOOD.
Colin narrates, OKAY, NOW TO FIND THOSE GRAPES.
The cheese stall employee points and says, SO, YOU'RE GOING TO GO THAT-A-WAY. AND THEN YOU'RE GOING TO LOOK TO YOUR RIGHT, AND YOU'LL SEE SOME GRAPES.
Simon asks, WHERE'S THE RIGHT?
The cheese stall employee says, PARDON?
Simon asks, WHERE'S THE RIGHT SIDE?
The cheese stall employee says, THE RIGHT-- SO, THIS IS YOUR RIGHT.
Simon asks, OKAY.
[Upbeat music plays]
The cheese stall employee says, GOOD LUCK, SIMON.
Simon says, TWO GRAPES.
♪
Colin narrates, AND NOW, THE WORLD'S MOST BORING PLACE FOR A KID…
[Music stops]
Colin narrates, THE VEGETABLE AISLE. WHERE THERE'S VEGETABLES, USUALLY THERE'S FRUIT. SO, THOSE GRAPES HAVE GOT TO BE AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE.
Simon walks up to a counter.
Simon says, I'M LOOKING FOR A LONG PIECE OF BREAD, AND SOME GRAPES.
A produce worker says, OH, A LONG...
Simon repeats, PIECE OF BREAD.
The produce worker says, BEAN? FLAT BEAN? LONG, FLAT BEAN?
Simon says, IT'S BREAD, BUT IT'S LONG.
The produce worker says, SO, I DON'T SELL BREAD IN HERE.
Simon says, OH.
The produce worker says, I ONLY SELL FRUIT AND VEGETABLES.
Simon asks, LIKE GRAPES?
[Upbeat music plays]
The produce worker says, GRAPES. YES. IS THERE A FAVOURITE ONE?
Simon says, SO, I NEED SOME GRAPES.
The produce worker says, THE GREEN ONE OR RED ONE YOU LIKE?
Simon says, I THINK I'LL TAKE BOTH.
The produce worker picks up a large bag of grapes, and Simon takes out a bunch.
[Bag rustling]
The produce worker says, OKAY. I CAN HOLD THEM. DO YOU WANT TO GRAB WHATEVER YOU WANT? THERE YOU GO. GOOD JOB.
Simon pays and takes a grey bag.
The produce worker says, OKAY. YOU HAVE A NICE DAY.
Simon says, YEAH. YOU KNOW, I JUST CANNOT HOLD ALL THESE BAGS THAT ARE SO HEAVY. I CAN HOLD MY MONEY BAG. BUT THESE BAGS, I CANNOT HOLD VERY GOOD.
The produce worker says, SO, YOU GET SOMEBODY OUTSIDE TO PICK UP THE FRUIT FROM YOUR HANDS. YOU CAN DROP OFF YOUR BAG TO THEM. THEN YOU CAN GO FOR THE NEXT STOP FOR SHOPPING.
Simon says, SO, I'LL DROP OFF ONE AT A TIME.
The produce worker says, OKAY.
Colin narrates, SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN. GO THAT WAY, STRAIGHT.
[Simon grunting]
A second produce worker asks, YOU WANT TO PUT IT INSIDE?
Simon says, YEAH.
The second produce worker helps Simon put all his bags into the fish bag.
The second produce worker says, YEAH, PUT IT INSIDE THERE. IT'S REALLY HEAVY.
Simon says, I KNOW.
Simon pushes a large door but cannot move it all the way open.
Colin narrates, NOW, THE ONLY THING WORSE THAN A HEAVY BAG IS A HEAVY DOOR. DON'T THEY TAKE KIDS INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN THEY MAKE THESE THINGS?
A passing shopper stops and opens the door for Simon.
Colin narrates, AH! NOTHING LIKE A HELPFUL SHOPPER AND THEIR GROWN-UP MUSCLES TO SAVE THE DAY.
Outside, David paces beside his car. He waves to Simon.
Simon says, I WAS JUST DROPPING OFF A LOAD BECAUSE IT WAS TOO HEAVY.
Simon sits on the sidewalk, and David walks up to him.
David says, OHH!
Simon says, YEAH.
David says, LET'S HAVE A LOOK. ARE YOU SO TIRED?
Simon says, IT'S ONLY-- ONLY THE BREAD. ONLY THE BREAD I HAVE TO RUN IN, BACK IN THE STORE, TO GET. I GOT THE FISH. I GOT THE CHEESE.
David says, OKAY.
Simon says, AND I GOT THE GRAPES. I GOT BOTH COLOURS.
David says, OKAY, SO, ARE YOU GONNA GO BACK IN?
Simon says, YEAH, TO GET THE-- TO GET THE BREAD.
David says, WHAT KIND OF BREAD? WHAT KIND OF BREAD?
Simon says, THE LONG BREADS.
David asks, YEAH. HOW MANY?
Simon says, UM... THREE?
David says, WE ONLY NEED TWO. BUT THREE IS GOOD.
Simon runs back to the doors.
[Energetic music plays]
Simon says, OH NO, DOOR CLOSES!
By the car, David says, COME ON, BUDDY.
Simon says, OKAY.
Colin narrates, GREAT, ANOTHER DOOR THAT WEIGHS EIGHT MILLION POUNDS. PLEASE DON'T FLATTEN SIMON LIKE A PANCAKE.
Simon pulls on the door and squeezes through the narrow opening.
Colin narrates, PHEW! AND SIMON IS BACK ON HIS MISSION TO GET THE LONG BREAD. I MEAN, THE BAGUETTES.
Simon skips down an aisle. He slows down and walks around a butcher’s counter.
[Upbeat music plays]
Subtitle: “What are you looking for?”
Simon says, THE BREAD.
Subtitle: “Just keep going about, uh, another thirty-five.”
At another butcher counter, Simon says, OKAY! DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE BREAD IS? WHERE'S THE BREAD?
At third butcher counter, Simon says, I NEED TO GET BREAD!
Colin narrates, NOPE. NO BREAD AT THE BUTCHER SHOP. AND THERE IT IS. THE BAKERY.
Simon skips past the bakery.
Colin narrates, OH, NO, SIMON, YOU SKIPPED RIGHT PAST IT. YOU KNOW, IF YOU JUST KEEP GOING IN A CIRCLE, YOU'LL FIND IT. THERE YOU GO. AT LAST, THE BREAD.
Simon says, HELLO? CAN I HAVE A LONG PIECE OF BREAD, A LONG ONE?
A bakery worker says, YEAH, SURE.
[Upbeat music plays]
The bakery worker puts a baguette in a bag.
Simon says TWO MORE OF THE SAME BREAD.
The bakery worker says, YOU WANT MORE?
Simon says TWO MORE OF THESE.
The bakery worker says, TWO MORE? OH, MY GOD, OKAY, GIVE ME A MINUTE, OKAY?
The bakery worker says, OKAY. TWO MORE, OKAY? HERE YOU GO. YOUR CHANGE. CAN YOU CARRY ALL OF THIS?
Simon pays.
Simon says, YEAH.
The bakery worker says, OH, YOU'RE VERY STRONG.
[Laughing]
The bakery worker says, OKAY. HAVE A NICE DAY.
Simon says, YOU, TOO.
Simon slings the baguettes over his shoulder.
The bakery worker says, THANK YOU. BYE BYE.
Colin narrates, FINALLY, AUTOMATIC DOORS. SIMON'S LIFE JUST GOT SO MUCH EASIER.
[Dramatic music plays]
Simon drops a baguette and picks it up.
Colin narrates, SPOKE TOO SOON.
Simon carries his baguettes outside.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, AND NOW, TO FIND DAD.
David waits beside the car.
Simon says, I GOT THE BREAD!
David says, YOU GOT THE BREAD. LET ME SEE, BUD.
Simon says, THREE OF THEM.
David says, THOSE WILL BE GREAT. COME HERE. GIVE ME A BIG HUG. I'M SO PROUD OF YOU.
David hugs Simon, and they high-five.
In the interview, David says, SIMON WAS INCREDIBLE TODAY. I WAS SO PROUD. THAT KID ROCKED IT.
In the car, David says, GOOD FOR YOU, BUDDY.
Simon says, NOW I KNOW HOW TO SHOP BY MYSELF.
David says, YOU DO.
In the interview, David says, HE WENT THROUGH A WHOLE MARKET, AND BOUGHT ALL THESE ITEMS. HE COULD BARELY LIFT THEM, MIND YOU, BUT HE WAS STILL ABLE TO DO IT.
Simon opens his front door.
Simon announces, WE'RE HOME!
David says, WE'RE HOME!
In the living room, Stephane and Frankie sit on a couch.
[Laughing]
Simon says, WE WENT TO THE ST. LAWRENCE MARKET.
In the interview, Stephane says, I AM SO HAPPY. I KNEW HE WAS GONNA ROCK IT.
[Upbeat music plays]
In the living room, Stephane asks, DO YOU THINK YOU CAN BUY EVERYTHING FOR MY BIRTHDAY?
Simon puts a grape in his mouth and falls backwards on the couch.
In the interview, Stephane says, I AM ACTUALLY QUITE PROUD OF DAVID. THIS WAS A GOOD EXPERIENCE FOR A VERY WORRIED DAD.
In the living room, Simon says, I WAS NOT EVEN SCARED.
Stephane says, YOU WEREN'T SCARED?
Simon says, YEAH.
Stephane says, WOW.
Simon says, HUGGY!
Simon hugs Frankie. Stephane and David hug the children between them.
Stephane says, OH!
[Everyone laughing]
Logo: Old Enough!
[Chiming]
Leaves sway on a tree branch. The black-haired girl and brown-eyed boy run in a laneway beside a house.
Colin narrates, IN A BUSY LITTLE NEIGHBOURHOOD, YOU'LL FIND TWO BUSY LITTLE SIBLINGS.
The children hold hands and swing in a circle.
The brown-eyed boy says, WOO-WOO-WOO-WOO!
[Singing]
Colin narrates, MEET SIX-YEAR-OLD PEMISIRE, AND FOUR-YEAR-OLD OREOFE…
The brown-eyed boy Pemisire hugs his little sister, the black-haired girl Oreofe. Text reads, “Age 6. Age 4.”
[Whooshing]
In a kitchen, the Pemisire washes a bowl. Oreofe stands beside him with a dish towel.
[Faucet water flowing]
Colin narrates, WHOSE MOM AND DAD WANT TO TEACH THEM HOW TO BE MORE INDEPENDENT, THE SAME WAY THEY WERE RAISED.
In an interview, Pemisire and Oreofe’s parents sit together. Their dad, Tolu, has a shaved head, a short black beard, and a moustache. He wears a purple sweater. Their mom, Funmi, has bobbed, curly black hair and wears a grey hooded sweater.
[Upbeat music plays]
Funmi says, GROWING UP IN NIGERIA AS YOUNG CHILDREN, A FIVE-YEAR-OLD IS ALREADY HELPING THEIR PARENTS TO WORK AT THE MARKET. YOU DON'T FIND THAT A LOT HERE.
In the kitchen, Pemisire rinses a cup.
[Water flowing]
In the interview, Funmi says, WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A WAY TO HELP THEM GROW THAT INDEPENDENCE, AND, YOU KNOW, TO THINK ON THEIR FEET.
Outside, Funmi swings Oreofe in a circle.
[Background shouting]
Colin narrates, LEARNING TO THINK ON THEIR FEET WILL BE IMPORTANT, SINCE THE FAMILY IS LEAVING THEIR HOME IN CANADA FOR A BRAND NEW START.
In a living room, Oreofe picks up bubble wrap.
[Rustling]
In the interview, Funmi says, IN TWO DAYS, WE ARE ACTUALLY PACKING UP, AND MOVING TO DALLAS TO START A NEW ADVENTURE.
Colin narrates, NEW ADVENTURES COME WITH NEW CHALLENGES, SO NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEMISIRE AND OREOFE TO GET A TASTE OF THAT INDEPENDENCE, AND RUN SOME ERRANDS, ALL BY THEMSELVES, FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME.
The children help their parents pack.
[Rustling]
In the kitchen, Oreofe says, BOOP! BOOP! BOOP!
In the interview, Funmi says, MY WORRY WOULD BE THAT PEMISIRE WILL GET DISTRACTED.
Tolu says, HE IS QUITE OUTGOING. HE IS OUTSPOKEN. HE IS THE LIFE OF THE PARTY.
Funmi says, WHILE ORE IS A CALM, COLLECTED LADY.
In the kitchen, Pemisire washes a glass.
Oreofe says, YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL.
[Water splashing]
In the interview, Funmi says, LET'S GIVE THEM A LITTLE PUSH, TO BASICALLY TEST HOW INDEPENDENT THEY REALLY ARE.
The sun rises over a street lined with houses.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, WHILE ORE IS AT A PARK PLAYDATE, THE OLD ENOUGH! CREW, DISGUISED AS ELECTRICIANS, ARE RIGGING UP SOME HIDDEN CAMERAS, SO PEMISIRE WON'T SUSPECT A THING.
In the living room, Funmi sits on the couch and types on a laptop computer. A crewmember snaps a clapperboard in front of Funmi.
[Tapping]
A crewmember says, WE'VE SET UP SOME DEVICES AROUND THE HOUSE, SO, PLEASE DON'T TOUCH THOSE.
The crewmember with the clapperboard snaps it in front of a second camera.
[Tapping]
In the living room, Funmi and Pemisire sit on the couch.
Colin narrates, NOW IT'S TIME FOR MOM TO GIVE HIM HIS BIG ASSIGNMENT.
Funmi says, I NEED TO SEND YOU ON AN ERRAND.
Pemisire says, WHAT? WHY?
Funmi says, BECAUSE YOU SAID YOU'RE MOMMY'S HELPER.
She kisses Pemisire’s hand.
[Smooching]
Funmi says, BOTH OF YOU ALWAYS PROMISE TO HELP ME WHEN I'M-- I NEED YOUR HELP, AND I NEED IT NOW.
Pemisire says, MM-MM.
Pemisire does a handstand on the couch.
[Gentle music plays]
Colin narrates, UH OH. THIS MIGHT NOT BE AS EASY AS SHE HOPED. MAYBE FOOD WILL CONVINCE PEMISIRE.
Funmi says, TODAY I'M TREATING YOU ALL TO PIZZA.
Pemisire says, FEASTING!
Funmi says, YEAH.
On an animated map, a dotted line following a small animated figure shows a path from home to the park.
Graphics of toothbrushes, toothpaste, and pizza appear.
[Upbeat music plays, popping]
Colin narrates, THE ERRAND IS SIMPLE, FOR A GROWN UP.
PEMISIRE WILL PICK HIS SISTER UP FROM THE PARK. THEN THEY'LL WALK TO THE NEARBY PHARMACY TO GET SOME ITEMS THEY NEED THAT HAVE ALREADY
BEEN PACKED AWAY. THEY'LL NEED TO BUY FOUR TOOTHBRUSHES, AND TWO TUBES OF TOOTHPASTE, ONE FOR ADULTS, ONE FOR KIDS.
THEN THEY'LL WALK TO THE PIZZA PLACE NEXT DOOR, TO PICK UP THREE DIFFERENT PIES FOR LUNCH. AND AFTER THAT, IT'S BACK HOME FOR A PIZZA FEAST.
[Party horn tooting]
In the living room, Funmi says, OH, YES, I WANT WINGS. FRIES. FRIES AND WINGS.
Pemisire says, CHICKEN WINGS.
Funmi says, YES.
[Upbeat music plays]
Funmi helps Pemisire put on his coat.
Colin narrates, AH, CHICKEN WINGS. THE NUMBER ONE WAY TO GET A BOY OUT ON HIS FIRST ERRAND. WITH HIS COAT ALL ZIPPED UP, AND SOME FIST BUMPS OF ENCOURAGEMENT, THE ADVENTURE BEGINS.
Funmi and Pemisire fist bump.
On the front porch, Pemisire says, I FORGOT HOW TO GO THERE.
[Vehicle engines humming]
Funmi says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, A FEW LAST MINUTE DIRECTIONS FROM MOM...
Funmi points and says, YES, AND GO ALL THE WAY DOWN.
Pemisire asks, IS THAT THERE?
Funmi says, YES. RIGHT THERE. BE CAREFUL.
Colin narrates, AND PEMISIRE IS OFF. WEARING A STYLISH MONEY BAG, AND CARRYING ONE FOR HIS SISTER.
On the porch, Funmi says, OH, MY GOD. I HOPE HE'S FINE.
Colin narrates, LET'S JUST HOPE MOM CAN RELAX. AH, THAT'S EASY FOR ME TO SAY. IT'S NOT MY KIDS WHO ARE OFF ON THEIR OWN FOR THE FIRST TIME.
[Pemisire whistling]
Pemisire walks past a sign that reads, “Wrong way.”
[Ominous music plays]
Colin narrates, OH, BOY. THAT SIGN BETTER NOT BE AN OMEN OF THINGS TO COME.
Pemisire arrives at the park.
[Upbeat music plays]
Pemisire says, FINALLY. OVER HERE.
Pemisire runs to Oreofe.
Pemisire says, ORE, HERE! WE HAVE TO GO TO A STORE. PUT YOUR ARM THROUGH.
Pemisire helps Oreofe put on the money bag, and they leave the park.
Pemisire says, NO, NOT THAT ARM. THE ARM BESIDE-- OH, THAT'S BETTER. WE JUST NEED TO GO THIS WAY.
Colin narrates, THEY'VE JUST GOT TO HEAD BACK IN THE DIRECTION PEMISIRE CAME FROM, AND, OH NO, THAT'S THE WRONG WAY.
Pemisire says, DO NOT GO THAT WAY. I HEARD THERE WAS A COYOTE. JUST KIDDING
[Colin laughing]
Colin narrates, NICE ONE, PEMISIRE.
Pemisire says, ORE, I THINK WE ARE NOT GOING THE RIGHT WAY.
Pemisire turns around. Oreofe hits his stomach as he passes her.
[Thump]
Colin narrates, OH! THAT IS GOING TO LEAVE A BRUISE.
[Gentle music plays]
Pemisire says, NO, NOT THAT WAY. THAT'S THE WAY HOME. ORE, WE'RE LOST.
Oreofe says, HUN?
Pemisire says, WE'RE LOST.
Oreofe says, LET'S JUST GO HOME.
Pemisire says, WE ARE NOT GOING HOME.
Oreofe asks, THEN WHERE ARE WE GOING?
Pemisire says, WE ARE GOING TO THE PIZZA PLACE. IT'S THAT WAY. JUST KEEP GOING STRAIGHT, I PROMISE, IT'S HERE.
Oreofe says, I THINK WE ARE STILL LOST.
Pemisire says, WE ARE NEVER LOST.
[Upbeat music plays]
Oreofe says, I SMELL SOMETHING STINKY. I JUST WANT YOU TO DROP ME OFF. THIS IS OUR HOME.
Pemisire says, YEAH, BUT I'M NOT GOING THERE.
Oreofe says, YES. WE ARE NOT GOING THERE. AFTER, WHEN WE COME BACK.
Pemisire says, I CAN SMELL THE LETTUCE!
Colin narrates, HE CAN SMELL THE LETTUCE PIZZA, WHATEVER THAT IS.
Pemisire says, JUST SMELL HARD. DO YOU SMELL IT?
Colin narrates, VERY SMART, PEMISIRE. WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE A MAP, USE YOUR NOSE.
Oreofe says, OH MY GOSH, I SMELL IT NOW.
Colin narrates, IF YOU SMELL IT, THEN YOU'LL BE THERE ANY MINUTE NOW. AS LONG AS NO ONE GETS DISTRACTED.
Pemisire stops and looks at a large evergreen tree. Oreofe walks up behind him and punches him in the side.
Pemisire says, OW!
Oreofe says, SORRY.
Colin narrates, THE NICE THING ABOUT MOM AND DAD NOT BEING AROUND IS YOU CAN HIT YOUR BROTHER, AS LONG AS YOU APOLOGIZE AFTER.
Pemisire points and says, IT'S RIGHT UP AHEAD!
[Upbeat music plays]
Pemisire says, TURN!
[Pemisire singing]
Oreofe says, YEAH! YEAH. YEAH. WE ARE ALMOST THERE.
Colin narrates, AND THERE IT IS. THEY FOUND IT. THE GREATEST PLACE ON EARTH. THE PIZZA PARLOUR.
[Majestic music plays]
Pemisire says, WE MADE IT.
[Music stops]
Colin narrates, OH, AND THERE'S THE PHARMACY THEY HAVE TO GO TO, TO GET THE TOOTHBRUSHES.
Pemisire and Oreofe skip past the pharmacy. Pemisire stops and looks back at the pharmacy.
Colin narrates, YOU CAN'T BLAME THEM FOR SKIPPING RIGHT PAST IT. I MEAN, THIS IS PIZZA WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. COME ON!
Pemisire opens the pizza parlour door, and he and Oreofe enter.
[Door chiming]
A pizza parlour worker says, HELLO.
Oreofe says, HI. UM...
The pizza parlour worker asks, HOW CAN I HELP YOU?
Oreofe says, WE NEED THREE PIZZAS.
Pemisire says, A HAWAIIAN, A BARBECUE, AND HALF CHEESE.
[Background telephone ringing]
Pemisire asks, CAN WE ADD CHICKEN WINGS?
The pizza parlour worker says, SORRY, YOU WERE SAYING?
Pemisire says, SMALL FRIES, AND TWO CANS OF POP.
Oreofe asks, HOW MUCH DOLLARS DO WE NEED?
Pemisire spreads four tens on a counter.
He asks, UH, COULD THIS BE ENOUGH?
The pizza parlour worker says, IT'S GOING TO BE 34.95. SO YOUR CHANGE IS GOING TO BE FIVE CENTS. I'LL GIVE IT TO YOU, OKAY? JUST GIVE ME A SECOND.
Pemisire says, I DON'T HAVE CENTS.
The pizza parlour worker says, FIVE CENTS. YEAH.
The pizza parlour worker picks the money up from the counter. Pemisire’s eyes widen, and he looks alarmed.
Pemisire says, OH. OH, NO. THAT'S ALL MY MONEY.
The pizza parlour worker says, THERE YOU GO.
The pizza parlour worker gives Pemisire a nickel.
Pemisire says, YES.
The pizza parlour worker says, JUST GIVE ME AROUND 10 TO 15 MINUTES, AND I'LL GET EVERYTHING READY FOR YOU.
Colin narrates, AND NOW, THE ONLY BAD PART OF ORDERING A PIZZA. THE WAIT.
The children sit at a table. Behind the counter, the pizza parlour worker makes a pepperoni pizza.
Pemisire stands up and looks at the underside of the counter.
Pemisire asks, WHAT IS THIS?
Oreofe orders, BROTHER, SIT.
Pemisire says, I DON'T WANT TO. THERE'S LIGHTS!
Oreofe says, BROTHER.
Pemisire does chin-ups on the counter.
Pemisire says, WAAAH! HELLO.
The pizza parlour worker says, I'VE GOT YOUR PIZZA, AND EVERYTHING IS READY NOW.
Pemisire asks, WHERE?
Pemisire says, OH, MY GOODNESS. I THINK THAT THIS--
Oreofe says, IT'S TOO HEAVY.
The pizza parlour worker gives Pemisire three large pizza boxes.
Pemisire says, IT'S TOO MUCH FOR A KID.
The pizza parlour worker gives Oreofe a plastic bag with the wings and cans.
The pizza parlour worker says, YOUR SISTER CANNOT CARRY THAT ONE.
Pemisire says, AWWW!
[Door chiming]
The pizza parlour worker says, HERE, CARRY IT PROPERLY. YOU DID GREAT.
Pemisire says, NO, I NEED SOMEBODY TO CARRY THIS.
Oreofe holds the door open for Pemisire.
The pizza parlour worker says, WALK SLOWLY. WALK SLOWLY. WALK STRAIGHT. THERE YOU GO.
Pemisire says, THIS IS SO HEAVY.
Colin narrates, THEY DID IT. NOW THEY JUST NEED TO HEAD INTO THE PHARMACY TO GET THE TOOTHBRUSHES. THE PHARMACY THAT IS... IN THE OTHER DIRECTION.
Pemisire stops and puts the pizza boxes on the sidewalk.
Pemisire says, COULD JUST DO,,,THIS. THIS.
Oreofe says, YOU CAN HOLD TWO. I CAN HOLD ONE. BROTHER, YOU CAN HOLD TWO.
Pemisire picks up two pizza boxes and walks away.
Pemisire says, HURRY UP!
[Upbeat music plays]
Oreofe says, OKAY. I'M STRONG.
Pemisire says, YEAH, IT'S SO HARD.
Oreofe says, YEAH.
Pemisire says, OW, OW, OW. IT STINGED. OWIE. OW.
Oreofe shouts, THIS IS SO HEAVY!
Oreofe drops her pizza.
[Dramatic notes play]
Oreofe says, AH! I COULDN'T-- I CAN'T HOLD IT.
[Upbeat music plays]
Oreofe drops the box again.
Oreofe says, UGH! OH, NO. IT FALL.
Oreofe picks slices of pizza up off the ground and puts them back in the box.
Colin narrates, FIVE SECOND RULE!
Oreofe says, OH! PIZZA. WE NEED THE PEPPERONI.
In front of the house, Funmi sits on the front steps.
Oreofe says, BROTHER, I SEE MOMMY.
Funmi shouts, HURRAY!
[Applause]
Pemisire says, WE FORGOT THE ORAL-B'S.
Funmi says, I GUESS YOU HAVE TO GO BACK TO GET THEM.
Colin narrates, ORAL-B'S. THAT'S KID-SPEAK FOR TOOTHBRUSHES.
Funmi says, YOU NEED TO HELP GET THE TOOTHPASTE AND THE BRUSHES.
Pemisire says, NO, I'M NOT.
Funmi says, YES, PLEASE.
Pemisire says, NO!
Pemisire walks up the front steps.
Funmi says, I'LL GET YOU YUMMY HOT CHOCOLATES WHEN YOU COME BACK. I'LL MAKE IT READY FOR YOU.
Oreofe says, OKAY, IF YOU SAY SO.
Funmi says, THANK YOU.
Pemisire says, NO! ORE IS GOING BY HERSELF.
Pemisire opens the front door and walks inside.
[Door clicking, door slamming, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, UH-OH. HEY, PEMISIRE. THERE'S STILL A WHOLE OTHER PART OF THE ERRAND TO FINISH.
Inside the house, Pemisire and Funmi unpack the food. Outside, Oreofe dances beside the front steps.
Colin narrates, SO, WHILE ORE DOES A LITTLE DANCE OUTSIDE, FOOD COMES TO THE RESCUE ONE MORE TIME.
Pemisire packs pizza slices into a bag.
Pemisire says, I'M TAKING IT WITH ME.
Funmi says, OKAY.
Subtitle: “Ore, we’re using this as a power-up snack.”
Funmi says, OH, OKAY, WHEN YOU'RE OUT OF POWER, YOU CAN EAT THE POWER-UP SNACK. THANK YOU, GUYS. LOVE YOU. THANKS FOR HELPING MOMMY.
[Funmi blowing kiss]
Funmi says, SEE YOU.
Pemisire says, OOH, OOH, OOH, OOH.
Oreofe looks at pizza crumbs on the ground.
Oreofe says, THAT WAS THE PIZZA THAT IT FELL DOWN ON THE FLOOR.
Pemisire says, I NEED TO STOP. I NEED A POWER-UP SNACK.
Pemisire kneels on the sidewalk and eats pizza.
Oreofe says, NO EATING ON THE STREET. REMEMBER WHAT DADDY SAID AND MOMMY, NO EATING ON THE STREET.
Oreofe jumps from a sidewalk to a lawn.
Oreofe says, OOF! AH! LET'S JUST KEEP GOING.
Colin narrates, AT LAST. THE PHARMACY.
Pemisire holds the door open, and Oreofe walks into the pharmacy.
Oreofe says, I THINK THAT THEY HAVE TOOTHPASTE.
Colin narrates, AND THEY FOUND THE TOOTHPASTE.
Oreofe says, THAT'S TOOTHPASTE.
Oreofe says, DAH! DAH! DAH! I LIKE THIS ONE, TOO. THERE.
Colin narrates, AND THE TOOTHBRUSHES. AND NOW, TO PAY.
Pemisire leaves the store. Oreofe follows him to the door and then walks back into the pharmacy.
Colin narrates, OR, MAYBE NOT.
Oreofe says, BROTHER, WE HAVE TO PAY.
An employee asks, DO YOU NEED ANY HELP?
Oreofe says, HUH?
The employee asks, ARE YOU HERE BY YOURSELVES?
Pemisire re-enters the pharmacy.
Pemisire says, YEAH.
The employee says, OKAY, LET ME JUST CALCULATE. YOU CAN HOLD YOUR BAG.
Pemisire takes bills out of his money bag.
Pemisire says, UM, WOULD YOU TAKE THIS?
The employee says, PERFECT. OKAY. YOU GOOD TO GO. YOU CAN GO.
Colin narrates, SO WHILE ORE DISTRACTS THE PHARMACY LADY, PEMISIRE GRABS A COUPLE OF CANDY RINGS FOR THE ROAD.
Oreofe talks to the employee. Pemisire reaches up and takes two candy rings from a box. He gives on to Oreofe.
Pemisire says, OH, THIS ONE'S FOR YOU.
Colin narrates, BONNIE AND CLYDE HAVE NOTHING ON THESE TWO.
The employee says, NICE TO SEE YOU, GUYS.
Oreofe says, BYE.
The employee says, COME AGAIN.
Oreofe says, OKAY. BYE.
They leave the pharmacy.
Oreofe says, BROTHER, THAT WAS—
Pemisire says, THAT'S GONNA BE A LONG DAY.
Oreofe says, YES.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, AH, FINALLY THE PEACEFUL JOURNEY HOME, AFTER A HARD DAY'S WORK. AS LONG AS NOTHING ELSE GOES WRONG, I THINK IT'S SAFE TO SAY THEY DID IT.
A can falls through the bottom of Pemisire’s bag.
Colin narrates, AND THE BAG HAS A HOLE IN IT.
Pemisire says, HEY, ONE OF THE MOUNTAIN DEWS.
Oreofe stops by a crossing guard and looks back at Pemisire.
Oreofe says, BROTHER!
Pemisire puts the candy ring package in his mouth, holds the can in his hand, and holds the bag in his other hand.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, AND THAT'S WHAT I CALL USING YOUR HEAD. AND YOUR HANDS, AND YOUR TEETH.
[Pemisire giggling]
In front of the house, Funmi says, YAY! YOU ARE BACK!
[Applause]
Funmi hugs Oreofe.
Funmi says, HEY, GUYS.
Oreofe says, EVEN BROTHER GOT SNACKS.
Funmi says, THANK YOU.
Funmi hugs Pemisire.
Pemisire asks, CAN I OPEN THE DOOR NOW?
Funmi says, MMM!
In the interview, Funmi says, I'M SUPER PROUD OF THEM.
On the front steps, Funmi sits with her arms around Oreofe and Pemisire’s shoulders.
Funmi says, IT'S REALLY GOES A LONG WAY TO SHOW THAT WHEN WE EMPOWER YOU, THERE IS NOTHING YOU CANNOT DO.
In the interview, Funmi says, THEY WERE SO GREAT. THEY WERE BRAVE. THEY WERE DISCIPLINED.
In the house, Funmi asks, WHO IS READY FOR SOME PIZZA PARTY?
Oreofe and Pemisire say, ME!
In the interview, Tolu says, WHEN THEY ARE AROUND EACH OTHER, LIKE, THEY COME ALIVE.
Funmi agrees, OH, YEAH.
At a dining room table, Funmi puts down pizza slices.
[Singing, background chatter, upbeat music continues]
In the interview, Funmi says, WHAT HAPPENED TODAY AFFIRMED WHAT WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO INCULCATE IN THEM. THEY WENT ALL OUT, AND DID ALL OF THE TASKS I GAVE THEM, DONE.
Tolu opens the box with the Hawaiian pizza. The slices are piled on one side of the box.
Funmi says, OH, MY GOD.
Tolu says, WOW.
Both parents ask, WHAT HAPPENED HERE?
Oreofe shrugs and says, ME.
In the interview, Funmi says, THE PIZZA DIDN'T LOOK GOOD. BUT IT DID TASTE GOOD. AND I ATE IT, BECAUSE IT WAS MY BABIES' FIRST TASK FOR ME, GETTING PIZZA.
At the dining room table, Tolu says, YOU DID A GOOD JOB.
Everyone chanting, MORE PIZZA PARTY, MORE PIZZA PARTY, MORE PIZZA PARTY!
Funmi says, YAY! GOOD JOB, GUYS.

In a store, the black-haired girl asks, WHAT THINGS DO YOU NEED TO MAKE A SANDWICH?
[Background chatter]
The black-haired girl carries three boxes.
She says, THIS IS GONNA BE SO HARD!
Kneeling on the sidewalk, the black-haired girl stacks the boxes. The black-haired boy walks away from her.

In a residential neighbourhood, people walk dogs on the sidewalk. A man mows his front lawn.
[Vehicle engines humming]
Colin narrates, AHH, LIFE IN THE CANADIAN SUBURBS. WHERE EVERYTHING IS QUIET, AND PEACEFUL, AND FAMILY LIFE IS AS PERFECT AS IT GETS. AND GROWING UP FAST IS SIX-YEAR-OLD, RANISHA.
In a backyard, the black-haired girl stands behind a small goal net. The black-haired boy kicks a red ball, and it bounces off the net. Behind them is a man with a shaved head, black beard, and moustache. He wears a grey and black sweater over a blue shirt. A woman with long black hair and light brown highlights stands with her hands in the pockets of her dark blue jacket.

[Vacuum humming]
Ranisha says, NOW, PUSH IT, PUSH IT.
Colin narrates, BUT THESE DAYS, RANISHA WANTS MORE THAN JUST BEING A STELLAR DAUGHTER AND SIBLING.
In the backyard, Rishaal kicks the ball, and Ranisha lifts the net off the grass.
The black-haired woman says, RANISHA!
[Laughing]
In an interview, the man with the shaved head, Hitesh, sits beside the black-haired woman, Rupita.
Rupita says, SHE SEES THAT A LOT OF HER FRIENDS, AND THAT THEY'RE BEING INDEPENDENT. SHE SEES THAT THEY'RE VENTURING OFF AND DOING STUFF, AND SHE WANTS TO TRY AND DO THOSE THINGS NOW.
In the backyard, Rupita says, PLAY NICE. SHARE. SHARE, PLEASE.
[Vehicle engines humming]
Colin narrates, ALTHOUGH HER MOM IS TOTALLY COOL LETTING RANISHA SPREAD HER WINGS, HER DAD, ER, NOT SO MUCH.
[Rishaal giggling]
In the living room, Hitesh says, HEY, HEY, DUDE, NO JUMPING ON THE COUCH. GET DOWN!
[Rishaal giggling]
In the interview, Rupita says, YOU'RE DEFINITELY HELICOPTER.
Hitesh says, I JUST DON'T WANT TO SEE MY KIDS GET HURT.
In the living room, Hitesh tickles Ranisha.
[Laughing, shrieking]
In the interview, Rupita says, I THINK THAT BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN RAISED VERY DIFFERENTLY, THAT IT'S JUST REFLECTIVE ON THE WAY THAT...
Hitesh says, YEAH. EXACTLY.
Rupita says, WE HANDLE THE KIDS, RIGHT?
Hitesh says, YOU KNOW, I DIDN'T DO ALL THE ADVENTUROUS AND EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES THAT RUPITA DID WHEN SHE WAS RAISED, UM... THAT'S WHERE ALL MY HELICOPTER PARENTING COMES IN. THIS OPPORTUNITY IS AS MUCH FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO SEE THAT RANISHA CAN DO THIS TASK.
In the living room, Ranisha rides on Hitesh’s back.
[Laughing]
In the interview, Rupita says, AND I THINK FOR ME, IT'S JUST AN AMAZING WAY TO SORT OF BE LIKE, "TOLD YOU SO."
[Rupita laughing]
Hitesh says, IF IT'S NOT, IT WILL BE A COMPLETE "I TOLD YOU SO" THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
Yellow leaves blow across a side street.
[Leaves rustling, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR AN ERRAND, BUT TO RANISHA, IT'S JUST ANOTHER REGULAR MORNING, AS MOM DROPS THE KIDS OFF AT GRANDMA'S BEFORE HEADING IN TO WORK.
Rishaal opens the front door to Grandma’s house.
Rishaal shouts, OH YES, HELLO!
Rupita says, HELLO!
Colin narrates, BUT WHAT RANISHA DOESN'T KNOW IS THAT OUR OLD ENOUGH! CREW HAS ALREADY RIGGED THE HOUSE WITH HIDDEN CAMERAS, BECAUSE MOM'S GOT SOMETHING ELSE PLANNED, AND BOTH DAD, AND GRANDMA, ARE IN ON THE ACTION.
In the living room, Grandma sits on a couch. She has long black hair, eyeglasses, a black cardigan, a white shirt, and blue jeans. Rupita sits on another couch across from Grandma.
Rupita says, OKAY, SO, RANISHA, I HAVE TO GO TO WORK SOON, SO CAN I PLEASE ASK YOU TO DO ME A FAVOR?
Ranisha says, YEP.
Rupita says, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE LUNCH TOGETHER, RIGHT? BUT DIDA CAN'T LEAVE. DIDA HAS TO STAY HERE. I HAVE TO GO TO WORK. CAN I ASK YOU TO PLEASE GO GET ME LUNCH?
Ranisha says, OKAY.
Rupita says, ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE OKAY WITH THAT?
Ranisha says, YEP.
Rupita asks, SHOULD WE HAVE SANDWICHES?
Subtitle: “No, donuts.”
Grandma, also known as Dida, repeats, DONUTS?
[Rupita laughing]
Ranisha says DONUTS AND PASTA.
Rupita asks, DO YOU THINK YOU CAN GET YOUR SUITCASE FROM AUNTIE MARIA'S HOUSE?
Ranisha says, YEAH.
On an animated map, a dotted line following a small animated figure shows a path to the house next door. The figure walks up a street to an intersection. A sign reads, “Busy intersection.” The figure crosses at the intersection and walks down the street to the bakery.
Graphics of a suitcase, bread, a cheese wheel, ham, and three pies appear.
[Map rustling, popping, boinging, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, FOR HER FIRST ERRAND, RANISHA WILL WALK TO THE NEXT-DOOR NEIGHBOUR'S HOUSE TO PICK UP A SUITCASE THAT THE FAMILY NEEDS FOR THEIR UPCOMING TRIP. HER LUGGAGE IN TOW, SHE'LL HEAD BACK TOWARDS GRANDMA'S HOUSE, DOWN THE STREET, AND THROUGH THE QUIET NEIGHBOURHOOD.
THEN, SHE'LL HIT A BUSY INTERSECTION THAT SHE'LL HAVE TO CROSS TO GET TO A PLACE THAT SHE'S BEEN TO OFTEN, BUT NEVER BY HERSELF. THE LOCAL ITALIAN BAKERY. THERE, RANISHA, WILL GET TWO LOAVES OF BREAD, MOZZARELLA CHEESE, AND HAM TO MAKE SANDWICHES, ALONG WITH AN APPLE, CHERRY, AND BLUEBERRY PIE.
RANISHA WILL HAVE HER HANDS FULL, BECAUSE SHE WILL ALSO NEED TO TAKE HER CHAOTIC LITTLE BROTHER, RISHAAL, ALONG WITH HER.
A photograph of Rishaal appears on the map.
[Giggling, slide whistle]
[Upbeat music plays]
In the interview, Rupita says, I DEFINITELY THINK THAT RANISHA IS READY FOR THIS, BUT I THINK WITH RISHAAL, IT CAN GO TWO WAYS. EITHER HE CAN BE COOPERATIVE, AND HE CAN JUST LIKE, GO ALONG WITH HER, OR HE CAN BE SUPER DISTRACTING, AND CAN TOTALLY THROW HER OFF HER GAME.
Rupita helps Ranisha and Rishaal put on their coats.
Rupita says, OKAY.
Rishaal says, MOMMY!
Ranisha says, HEY, HOW ABOUT AN UMBRELLA, I WANT UMBRELLA.
In the interview, Hitesh says, THE WHOLE TIME THAT THEY'RE OUT THERE, I WILL BE STRESSED OUT OF MY MIND.
[Hitesh and Rupita chuckling]
Ranisha and Rishaal leave the house. Rupita stands at the front door.
Rupita asks, WHAT'S THE MAIN THING I WANT YOU TO FOCUS ON?
[Rupita laughing]
She says, THE SAFETY OF YOUR BROTHER, OKAY?
Ranisha says, COME ON, RISHAAL!
[Energetic music plays]
In the interview, Hitesh says, LET'S JUST FAST-FORWARD IN TIME, AND GET THEM BACK.
Colin narrates, WITH SO MUCH RIDING ON THREE-YEAR-OLD RISHAAL, IT'S A GOOD THING THE FIRST STOP IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER.
Ranisha says, COME ON.
Ranisha leads Rishaal up a driveway. Auntie Marie opens her front door.
Auntie Maria says, HELLO, MY SWEETIES.
Ranisha says, HI.
Auntie Maria asks, HOW ARE YOU?
Auntie Maria hugs Ranisha and kisses her on the top of her head.
[Smooching]
Ranisha says, GOOD. WE NEED A SUITCASE NOW.
Auntie Maria says, OH, OKAY, I'LL GET IT FOR YOU.
[Door creaking]
Auntie Maria brings the grey suitcase outside.
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT! PART ONE OF THE ERRAND IS COMPLETE. AND SO FAR, RANISHA HAS MANAGED TO NOT LOSE A RISHAAL.
[Humming, leaves rustling]
Rishaal asks, WHAT ARE WE GETTING FOR LUNCH?
Ranisha says, YEAH. ARE WE GOING TO GET A SANDWICH?
Subtitle: “Yeah, and a donut!”
Colin narrates, SOMEBODY BETTER GET THIS KID A DONUT.
[Upbeat music plays]
Inside Dida’s house, Rupita looks out the window.
Hitesh asks, HOW'D IT GO? HOW'D IT GO? HOW'D IT GO?
Rupita says, I THINK IT WENT GOOD. OH, WAIT. THERE SHE IS. LOOK, LOOK, LOOK.
Hitesh says, WHERE?
Rupita says, YOU CAN SEE.
Ranisha and Rishaal walk past with the suitcase.
Rupita says, THEY'RE JUST WALKING RIGHT NOW. IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S GOING GOOD.
On the couch, Hitesh says, I STILL HAVE ANXIETY, THOUGH. WAITING FOR THEM TO COME BACK.
Rupita says, NO, NO.
[Upbeat music plays]
Subtitle: “Our three pies are at the store.”
A crossing guard waits at the corner of the street.
Ranisha says, HELP PRESS THE BUTTON.
Rishaal pushes the button, and they cross the street.
Colin narrates, THIS SEEMS ALMOST TOO EASY.
[Music stops]
Rishaal falls down on the sidewalk.
Ranisha asks, YOU OKAY?
Colin narrates, OOPS. SPOKE TOO SOON.
Subtitles: “Do you want me to fix your shoe?” “No.”
Colin narrates, AND LOOK AT THAT. THEY MADE IT TO THE BAKERY.
[Upbeat music plays]
Subtitle: “We’re here.”
A customer holds the door open for the siblings. Inside are displays filled with pastries and cookies.
Colin narrates, NOW, HOW DO YOU EXPECT TWO SMALL KIDS TO REMEMBER WHAT THEY NEED FOR LUNCH WHEN THERE'S SO MUCH OF THIS AROUND?
THANKFULLY, RANISHA'S GOT ADDED HELP FROM RITA, THE BAKERY'S OWNER, WHO SHE KNOWS QUITE WELL.
Ranisha says, HI, RITA.
Rita says, HI, THERE. YOU GUYS ARE ALL BY YOURSELVES?
Ranisha says, YEAH.
[Background chatter, other customers chuckling]
Rita says, SO GROWN UP. SO, WHAT CAN I HELP YOU WITH?
Ranisha asks, WHAT THINGS DO YOU NEED TO MAKE A SANDWICH?
Colin narrates, I'D SAY THAT'S A PRETTY IMPORTANT QUESTION WHEN GETTING SANDWICH ITEMS.
Rita says, WELL, WE NEED BREAD TO MAKE A SANDWICH.
Ranisha says, YEAH. I NEED TWO LOAVES OF BREAD.
Rita says, AND LET'S CHECK OUT THE DELI COUNTER. COME.
Rishaal says, YEAH.
Rita says, SO, DO YOU LIKE HAVARTI CHEESE? PROVOLONE CHEESE? MOZZARELLA CHEESE?
[Upbeat music plays]
Ranisha says, YES.
Rita says, MOZZARELLA.
Ranisha nods.
Rita says, OKAY, MOZZARELLA.
Ranisha says, MY MOMMY WANTS SOME OF THAT FOOD.
Rita says, SOME HAM? SURE.
Rishaal dances behind Ranisha.
Colin narrates, HEY, IT'S NO DONUT, BUT CLEARLY, RISHAAL LIKES THAT IDEA.
Ranisha says, COME ON, RISHAAL, CASH OUT.
Rishaal says, YEAH. CASH OUT.
[Background chatter, clattering]
Ranisha says, RITA, I FORGOT ONE MORE THING. I NEED ANOTHER THING.
Rita asks, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE?
Ranisha says, UM... THREE PIES. I NEED CHERRY, AND BLUEBERRY, AND APPLE, PLEASE.
Rita says, OKAY.
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT, RANISHA. YOU GOT EVERYTHING ON THE LIST, AND KEPT RISHAAL IN CHECK. NOT BAD. I'D SAY THAT WAS A PRETTY SUCCESSFUL ERRAND. EXCEPT...
Ranisha says, I NEED TO START OPENING MY SUITCASE.
Ranisha stares at the pile of groceries on the counter.
Colin narrates, NOW SHE NEEDS TO CARRY ALL THIS STUFF HOME. WELL, IF MOM'S GOING TO MAKE YOU BRING A SUITCASE ALONG, MIGHT AS WELL PUT IT TO GOOD USE.
Ranisha packs the groceries into the suitcase.
Rita says, PUT THAT THERE.
[Rustling]
Ranisha says, LOTS.
Rita says, YES, LOTS. OKAY, NOW, WE WON'T PUT THE PIES IN, SO YOU'LL CARRY THE PIES? OKAY, YOUR BROTHER CAN HELP YOU WITH THE--
Ranisha says, BUT I HAVE TO HOLD THE UMBRELLA UP.
Rita says, YOU'LL HAVE TO HOLD THE PIES TOGETHER. OKAY, SO HOLD ON TO YOUR SUITCASE, AND YOUR UMBRELLA.
Ranisha says, IT'S A LONG WALK NOW.
Rita says, YOU CAN DO IT. SO, HOLD OUT YOUR HANDS. HOLD OUT YOUR HANDS, LIKE THAT.
Ranisha says, I CAN'T HOLD HIS HAND.
Rita says, YOU CAN DO THAT. HOLD THAT.
Ranisha says, WHOA. OH!
Rita asks, YOU GOT IT?
Ranisha says, THIS IS GONNA BE SO HARD!
Rita says, HERE, LET ME SEE IF I CAN HELP YOU HOLD ON.

Ranisha says, COME ON RISHAAL, YOU WANT TO COME-- HOLD IT?
Rishaal says, YEAH. UNDER. RAINING!
Ranisha says, WAIT, MAYBE LIKE THIS, AND WALK?
Ranisha holds the three pies with both hands. Her right arm is looped through the handle of the suitcase and she drags it behind her. Rishaal walks behind her with the umbrella.
Rishaal sings, POURING!
Rita says, GUYS, BE CAREFUL WALKING HOME, OKAY? BYE!
Rishaal sings, RAINING, POURING!

Rishaal says, OH, NO.
Ranisha says, WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO? OH, BOY.
Colin narrates, OH, RISHAAL WAS DOING SO WELL, BUT NOW HE'S LIVING UP TO EVERYTHING MOM AND DAD WARNED US ABOUT.
Ranisha shouts, RITA! I NEED HELP.

Ranisha drops her pies.
Colin narrates, OH, NO. PIES DOWN!
Ranisha says, RISHAAL, WAIT. HOLD IT.

Subtitle: “I don’t like to hold.”
Ranisha says, NO, NO! YOU HAVE TO.
Subtitle: “No, I don’t have to. I don’t like.”
Rishaal gives Ranisha the pie box and walks away.
Colin narrates, OR MAYBE NOT.
[Music stops]
Ranisha puts the pie box on top of the other two on the sidewalk. She kneels beside the suitcase and wipes her eyes.
[Ranisha whimpers]
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT, RANISHA, WIPE THOSE TEARS. TIME TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET YOUR BROTHER TO HELP.
[Gentle music plays]
Ranisha says, COME, RISHAAL, HOLD ONE.

[Ranisha whimpering, sobbing, tense music plays]
Colin narrates, UH OH. I THINK RISHAAL MIGHT HAVE FINALLY BROKEN RANISHA.
Ranisha says, RISHAAL, COME!
Rishaal walks away from Ranisha.
Rishaal says, NO!
Ranisha says, COME!
Colin narrates, BUT RIGHT WHEN YOU THINK SHE'S GIVEN UP, RANISHA DECIDES SHE'S NOT TAKING "NO" FOR AN ANSWER.

Subtitle: “I want to hold blueberry pie.”
Ranisha says, COME. OKAY, AND YOU'RE GOING TO HOLD IT, OKAY?
Rishaal says, OKAY.
Ranisha gives Rishaal the blueberry pie.

Rishaal slowly walks away from Ranisha.
[Upbeat music plays]
Ranisha gathers the two pies, the umbrella, and the suitcase.
Ranisha says, WAIT. WAIT, RISHAAL.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, THERE YOU GO, RANISHA. TAMING YOUR WILD LITTLE BROTHER IS ALL A PART OF GROWING UP.
[Rishaal singing loudly]
Colin narrates, THANKS FOR THAT, RISHAAL. I WAS THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING.
Rishaal stops in the middle of a street.
Ranisha says, RISHAAL! RISHAAL! THIS WAY, THIS WAY. THIS WAY. STRAIGHT! COME, COME.
Rishaal turns and follows Ranisha.
Ranisha says, GOOD.
In front of the house, Rupita says, OH MY GOD, THERE SHE IS.
[Gasping]
Dida asks, WHERE IS SHE?
Rupita points and says, LOOK, LOOK, LOOK, LOOK.
Ranisha says, OKAY, COME, RISHAAL. COME, COME, COME, COME.
Rishaal says, YEAH.

Hitesh asks, HEY, WHAT'D YOU BUY ME?
Ranisha shouts, THE PIE IS SLIPPING!
Rupita says, YOU GOT IT. COME ON, GIRL, YOU CAN DO IT.
[Everyone laughing]
Hitesh asks, WHAT DID YOU BUY DADDY?
Rupita says, YAY! GOOD JOB.
Rishaal runs into Hitesh’s arms.

Hitesh asks, WHAT DID YOU BUY DADDY?
Down the street, Ranisha drops a pie.
Hitesh asks, OH, YOU DON'T KNOW?
Rishaal points and says, RANISHA HAS IT.
Rupita says, OKAY, GO HELP HER. HE'S COMING. DON'T WORRY.
Rishaal runs to Ranisha.
Rupita says, SHE LITERALLY JUST DROPPED THE PIE.
Rishaal takes a pie from Ranisha.
Rishaal says, LET ME GIVE IT TO DADDY.
In the interview, Rupita says, I WAS IN AWE. JUST IN AWE WITH THE FACT THAT NOT ONLY DID THEY DO IT TOGETHER, BUT THAT THEY BROUGHT EVERYTHING BACK.
Rupita hugs Rishaal and says, YOU DID SO GOOD! MUAH!
[Smooching]
Hitesh picks up Ranisha.
Hitesh says, GOOD JOB, BABY!
Rupita says, BEAUTIFUL, GOOD JOB.
In the interview, Hitesh says, RANISHA IS MY LITTLE GIRL. AND SEEING HER DO ALL THIS STUFF, IT WAS VERY IMPRESSIVE. RISHAAL REALLY DID A GREAT JOB TODAY. HELD HER HAND, WALKED WITH HER, HELPED HER OUT. AND HE DOESN'T ALWAYS DO THAT STUFF WITH ME.
Rupita agrees, YEAH, THEY DID AN AMAZING JOB.
At a dining room table, Rupita says, I JUST NEED TO SAY THAT THIS WAS, LIKE, A REALLY DELICIOUS LUNCH, BECAUSE OF ALL OF YOUR HARD WORK. AND I CAN'T EVEN BELIEVE THAT YOU DID ALL OF THIS WITH THIS GOOFBALL.
In the interview, Hitesh says, WHAT I'VE LEARNED FROM THIS IS, IS, YOU KNOW, RANISHA IS GROWING UP.
Ranisha takes a pie off the kitchen counter.
Rupita says, OKAY, THAT'S IT.
In the interview, Hitesh says, SHE'S NOT MY LITTLE GIRL ANYMORE.
At the dining room table, the family eats pie.
Rupita says, LOOK AT THAT. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GETTING DESSERT. WE'RE SO PROUD OF YOU.
In the interview, Hitesh says, I MAY, YOU KNOW, LET HER DO A FEW THINGS BY HERSELF, BUT I MAY WATCH A LITTLE BIT FROM A FURTHER DISTANCE, INSTEAD.
Rupita asks, SO YOU'RE STILL GONNA BE HELICOPTER?
Hitesh says, ABSOLUTELY. 100 PERCENT.
Rupita says, OH, MY GOD!

The brown-haired boy smiles. Text reads, “Age 5.”

Noah says, YOU GO THIS WAY, AND I GO THIS WAY.
Diego says, OKAY.
[Gentle music plays]
Colin narrates, NOAH'S PARENTS ARE BASICALLY HIS BEST FRIENDS.
Outside, Diego holds Noah’s hands as he walks a rock ledge.
Diego says, JUMP ON THIS ONE.
Colin narrates, THEY DO EVERYTHING TOGETHER.
In the interview, Diego says, MY PARENTING STYLE IS MORE OF A PARENTING, SLASH, BUDDY.
Colin narrates, AND BECAUSE OF THAT, NOAH'S NEVER REALLY DONE
ANYTHING ON HIS OWN. BUT MOM AND DAD THINK AN IMPORTANT PART OF GROWING UP IS MAKING MISTAKES.
In the kitchen, Noah stirs ingredients in a bowl with a whisk. Claire takes the whisk and stirs faster.
Claire says, AROUND, AND AROUND.
Noah says, NO, YOU DO IT. YOU DO IT.
Claire says, OKAY. OKAY.
Colin narrates, WITHOUT YOUR PARENTS ALWAYS COMING TO THE RESCUE.
Noah pours flour into a bowl.
Claire says, WHOA! THAT'S OKAY.
In the interview, Claire says, MY PARENTS, THEY ALLOWED ME TO MAKE MY OWN DECISIONS, AND THEY ALLOWED ME TO BREAK MOULDS OF THE TRADITIONAL
ITALIAN FAMILIES.
In the living room, Noah runs in circles with a vacuum cleaner.
[Vacuum humming, Noah cackling]
In the interview, Claire says, SO THEY KIND OF INSTILLED THOSE VALUES IN ME THAT I WANT TO PASS DOWN TO NOAH TO BE HIS OWN PERSON.
Outside, Claire lifts Noah onto the rock ledge.
[Clucking tongue]
Claire says, OKAY, THERE WE GO.
Colin narrates, NOAH'S PARENTS CLEARLY THINK HE'S READY TO VENTURE OUT OF HIS COMFORT ZONE...
On the ledge, Noah shouts, AAAH!
Colin narrates, AND RUN AN ERRAND WITHOUT THEIR HELP. TO SHOW HIM HE DOESN'T ALWAYS NEED MUM AND DAD BY HIS SIDE.
In the interview, Claire says, I'M OBVIOUSLY HOPING FOR THE BEST, BUT MENTALLY PREPARING MYSELF FOR THE ABSOLUTE WORST.
In a garage, Diego puts a plank of wood on a table. Noah, wearing safety goggles, stands beside him.
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, IT'S A BIG DAY IN NOAH'S NEIGHBOURHOOD, BECAUSE HE AND HIS DAD ARE SPENDING THE MORNING BUILDING A BIRDHOUSE TOGETHER IN THE GARAGE.
In the garage, Diego says, SO WE'RE GOING TO CUT A PIECE LIKE THIS.
Colin narrates, AND A COUPLE OF BLOCKS AWAY, AT NOAH'S GRANDPARENTS' HOUSE, HIS NONNO IS ALSO BUSY RENOVATING HIS BASEMENT.
At Nonno’s house, he takes a drill out of a case. Nonno has short grey hair and wears a red, white, and black plaid shirt, eyeglasses, and blue jeans.
Colin narrates, DAD AND NONNO ARE ALWAYS TRADING TOOLS FOR THEIR VARIOUS CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS, SO TODAY, NOAH MIGHT NEED TO MAKE A FEW TRIPS BACK AND FORTH TO HELP THEM OUT.
In the garage, Diego asks, YOU READY? OKAY.
Noah says, YEAH.
Noah covers his ears. Diego cuts the wood with a buzz saw.
[Buzz saw whirrs]
In the interview, Claire says, SO, NOAH HAS WALKED VERY MANY TIMES TO MY PARENTS' HOUSE, WHICH IS AROUND THE CORNER, BUT HE'S NEVER DONE IT ON HIS OWN, SO THAT COULD PRESENT US WITH A CHALLENGE.
Diego says, HE MIGHT BE SCARED.
[Cheerful music plays]
Colin narrates, HERE COMES MOM WITH SOME SOUP SHE MADE FOR NONNO. GRAB SOME POPCORN. LET'S SEE IF NOAH'S READY TO GO ON HIS VERY FIRST ERRAND.
Claire carries a large pot of soup into the garage and puts it on the table.
Claire says, MOMMY NEEDS YOU TO DO ME A REALLY, REALLY BIG FAVOUR.
Noah asks, WHAT?
Claire asks, CAN YOU BRING THIS OVER TO NONNO'S HOUSE FOR ME?
Noah says, IT'S TOO HEAVY.
Claire says, IT'S NOT TOO HEAVY. YOU ARE SUPER STRONG. I THINK YOU CAN HANDLE IT.
MOMMY HAS TO STAY BACK HERE AND COOK, AND DADDY'S GOING TO FINISH THE BIRDHOUSE. BUT I THINK THAT YOU COULD DO IT ON YOUR OWN.
Subtitle: “I don’t want to do it by myself.”
Colin narrates, COME ON, NOAH, DO IT FOR NONNO.
Claire says, I KNOW, BUT HE NEEDS YOUR HELP. HE NEEDS SOME SOUP BECAUSE
HE'S WORKING IN THE BASEMENT, AND HE'S REALLY HUNGRY. WE GOT TO FEED HIM. I THINK YOU CAN DO IT.
Subtitle: “I’m not doing it by myself!”
In the interview, Claire says, IF NOAH IS IN THAT MOOD WHERE HE'S NOT WANTING TO DO SOMETHING AND THAT REAL ITALIAN CALABRESE STYLE IS COMING OUT, WE'RE NOT REALLY SURE WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.
In the garage, Claire says, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO.
Noah says, I DON'T WANT TO.
Colin narrates, WHEN LIFE LESSONS FAIL, TRY PLAYING THE GRANDPARENT CARD.
In the garage, Claire asks, YOU WANT TO GIVE NONNO A PHONE CALL, SWEETHEART?
Noah says, YEAH.
Claire says, OKAY, LET'S GIVE HIM A CALL. OKAY?
[Phone ringing]
On the cellphone, Nonno says, HEY, BUDDY. HOW YOU DOING?
Noah says, GOOD.
Nonno says, I AM REALLY EXCITED TO SEE YOU COMING TO MY HOUSE. JUST FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES.
Noah says, YEAH.
Nonno says, I JUST HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF WORK I NEED A HAND WITH, MAYBE YOU CAN GIVE ME A HAND?
Noah says enthusiastically, OKAY, I'LL DO IT.
[Bright music plays]
Nonno says, THANK YOU. APPRECIATE IT. SEE YOU SOON.
Claire says, OKAY. BYE, DAD.
Noah repeats, BYE, DAD.
Claire ends the phone call. Noah hits the table.
[Tapping, upbeat music plays]
Claire says, OKAY. YOU THINK YOU CAN GO OVER THERE AND HELP HIM OUT?
Noah says, YEAH!
Claire says, YEAH! AWESOME.
Claire and Noah high-five.
[Hands slapping]
Colin narrates, PHEW. HE'S IN!
On an animated map, a dotted line following a small animated figure shows a path from Noah’s house to Nonno’s house. A sign beside an intersection reads, “Quiet intersection.” Graphics of soup and a birdhouse appear.
[Rustling, boinging, drill whirrs, birds chirping, upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, NOW, TO GET THE SOUP TO NONNO, NOAH WILL ONLY NEED TO GO STRAIGHT DOWN HIS STREET. IT'S A VERY SHORT WALK, BUT ONE HE'S NEVER DONE ON HIS OWN BEFORE.
HE'LL CROSS A QUIET INTERSECTION, THEN IT IS JUST A QUICK STROLL TO NONNO'S HOUSE, WHERE HE'LL DELIVER THE SOUP, HELP NONNO WITH HIS RENOVATIONS, THEN HEAD BACK TO FINISH THE BIRDHOUSE WITH DAD. UNLESS HE NEEDS TO GO BACK TO NONNO'S AGAIN.
In front of their house, Claire and Diego watch Noah carry the soup pot along the sidewalk.
[Noah sighing heavily, energetic music plays]
Noah says, BYE.
Claire says, BYE!
Diego says, BYE, BUDDY.
Claire says to Diego, LOOK AT HIM GO. HE'S DOING A STELLAR JOB, EH?
[Diego chuckling]
Diego says, YEAH.
Noah stops at the intersection and looks both ways. He carries the pot across the street.
Noah says, NO CARS.
Colin narrates, NICE ROAD SAFETY SKILLS, NOAH!
Noah puts the pot down by the curb.
Colin narrates, OKAY, LOOKS LIKE NOAH NEEDS A LITTLE REST.
Noah bounces behind the pot.
Colin narrates, OH! AND A DANCE BREAK. FOR A KID WHO DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE MOM AND DAD... NOAH SEEMS TO BE HAVING A PRETTY GOOD TIME ON HIS OWN.
[Upbeat music plays]
Noah turns the corner and carries the pot across lawns.
Noah says, OVER HERE. WHEW! I'M GETTING TIRED. WHEW! I'M ALMOST THERE. I'M TAKING A LONG WALK.
[Pot clunking]
Colin narrates, A SHORT WALK DEFINITELY FEELS LONG WHEN YOU'RE LUGGING A POT OF SOUP FOUR TIMES BIGGER THAN YOUR HEAD.
Noah puts the pot down on the road and stares at it.
[Noah sighing, clunking]
Colin narrates, YOU'RE SO CLOSE TO NONNO'S HOUSE. COME ON, NOAH! DON'T TURN BACK NOW.
Noah picks up the pot.
Subtitle: “I’m going still.”
Colin narrates, THAT'S THE SPIRIT. AND HE MADE IT.
Noah opens the front door of Nonno’s house.
[Laughing]
Nonno says, OH! HI, BUDDY!
Nonno hugs Noah.
Nonno says, OH. WHAT DID YOU BRING ME?
Noah jumps out onto the front porch and lands beside the pot.
Nonno says, OH, YOU BROUGHT ME SOUP?
Noah says, YEAH.
Nonno carries the soup inside and Noah follows him.
Nonno says, WELL, COME ON IN. COME, COME. IT'S COLD OUT THERE. CAN YOU HELP ME WITH SOMETHING DOWNSTAIRS?
Noah asks, WHAT?
Nonno says, OKAY. COME OVER HERE. TAKE YOUR COAT OFF.
[Upbeat music plays]
Nonno puts a yellow hard hat on Noah’s head.
Colin narrates, WITH THE SOUP DELIVERED, IT'S TIME TO HELP NONNO WITH HIS CONSTRUCTION PROJECT. DOWN THEY GO INTO NONNO'S BASEMENT, WHERE OUR CAMERA CREW IS DISGUISED AS WORKERS HELPING WITH NONNO'S RENOVATIONS.
Nonno says, OKAY. YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT YOU TO DO? I WANT YOU TO HELP ME WITH THIS DRYWALL.
Noah says, DRYWALL? WHERE DOES IT GO?
Nonno says, IT GOES RIGHT OVER THERE. BUT YOU'VE GOT TO HELP ME MOVE IT OVER, BECAUSE MY BACK IS A LITTLE HURT RIGHT NOW. COULD YOU DO THAT FOR ME?
Noah says, NO PROBLEM.
Noah pushes the drywall.
[Grunting]
Nonno says, PUSH IT A LITTLE BIT MORE? GIVE ME-- GIVE A LITTLE KICK.
Noah kicks the bottom of the drywall panel.
[Thumping]
Nonno says, OKAY, NOW.
Noah says, HAH-- OOH!
[Thump]
Colin narrates, HE SAID A LITTLE KICK. NOT A FULL ROUNDHOUSE.
[Upbeat music continues]
Nonno says, GRAB THAT PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER, THERE.
Noah asks, THIS ONE?
Nonno says, YEAH.
Noah says, I KNOW. I CAN SCREW IT. WHICH WAY, LIKE, THIS WAY OR THAT WAY?
Nonno says, THIS WAY.
Noah says, CLOCK.
Nonno says, CLOCKWISE. EXACTLY. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN DO THAT ONE THERE. OKAY, I'LL HOLD IT FOR YOU.
Noah turns the screwdriver.
Subtitle: “What? I’m taking it out, bro.”
[Nonno laughing]
Colin narrates, YEAH, BRO. HE'S TAKING IT OUT. SHEESH.
Nonno says, I'M YOUR BRO NOW? OKAY. BEAUTY, LOOK AT THAT.
Noah gives Nonno the screwdriver.
Noah says, HERE YOU GO.
[Noah exclaims]
Nonno says, COME ON, LET'S GO.
[Gentle music plays]
Upstairs, Nonno says, WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT? THANK YOU. I HOPE I SEE YOU SOON.
Nonno opens the door, and Noah walks outside.
[Door clicking]
Noah says, I'M BACK OUT.
Nonno says, OKAY, BUDDY, I LOVE YOU. COME AND SEE ME SOON, OKAY?
[Upbeat music plays]
Noah runs along the grass.
Noah shouts, OKAY.
Colin narrates, AND HE DID IT. SEE, NOAH? THAT WASN'T SO HARD. NOW, HEAD BACK HOME, AND HELP DAD WITH THAT BIRDHOUSE.
Noah says, GO! GO! GO! YES!
[Upbeat music plays]
In front of the house, Claire cheers, YAY!
[Applause]
Noah runs to Claire, and she hugs him.
[Both laughing]
Claire cheers, YOU DID IT!
Colin narrates, SO, REMEMBER WHEN I SAID NOAH MIGHT BE MAKING A FEW MORE TRIPS?
[Music stops]
Deigo holds a level taller than he is.
Diego asks, CAN YOU DO ME A FAVOUR? NONNO HAS A LEVEL, IT'S TOO SMALL.
Claire says, UH-OH.
Diego says, HE NEEDS THIS BIG ONE. CAN YOU BRING THIS BACK TO NONNO? LOOK HOW BIG THIS IS.
Noah says, HOLY! OH MY. IT'S TALLER THAN YOU.
Colin narrates, AND DAD ALSO NEEDS HIM TO BRING BACK A FEW TOOLS FOR THE BIRDHOUSE.
Diego says, SCREWDRIVER. PHILLIPS.
Noah says, YES!
Diego says, YOU KNOW WHICH ONE THAT IS?
Noah says, YES.
Diego says, IT'S A STAR. A TAPE MEASURE AND A HAMMER. READY?
Noah says, YEAH.
Diego says, HIGH FIVE?
Noah taps Diego’s elbow with the level.
[Upbeat music plays]
Noah says, BOOM.
Diego says, AND, GO!
Noah turns and runs.
Noah says, GO, GO, GO.
Claire says, GOOD JOB, BUDDY.
Diego says, SLOW DOWN THERE, SPEEDSTER!
In the interview, Diego says, I THOUGHT THERE WAS GONNA BE A LITTLE BIT OF PUSHBACK WHEN IT CAME TO DOING THE SECOND ERRAND, BUT THERE WAS ZERO. HE WAS JUST-- GO.
On the sidewalk, Noah says, HOLY, THIS IS COLD.
[Sighing]
Noah says, THAT CAR IS GONE. OH, NO! RUN!
Noah runs across the intersection.
Noah says, RUN!
[Lever clattering against ground]
Noah says, OH. WAIT. AH!
[Panting]
Noah stops and crouches. He stands up and keeps walking.
Noah says, I'LL JUST KEEP GOING. I'M NOT GOING BACK HOME. NO! NOT GOING! NO, NO.
Colin narrates, LOOK AT NOAH'S CONFIDENCE. IT'S LIKE HE'S GROWING UP RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES. OH, WATER BOTTLE!
Noah stomps on a plastic water bottle.
[Plastic crunching]
Noah says, AH!
Noah carries the level up Nonno’s front steps.
[Happy music plays]
Colin narrates, ALL RIGHT, NOAH IS BACK AT NONNO'S WITH THE EIGHT-BILLION-FOOT LEVEL.
Nonno says, OH, MY GOD.
[Level clattering]
Noah says, HERE YOU GO.
Nonno asks, IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU NEED?
Noah nods.
Nonno says, YEAH? WELL, LET'S GO DOWNSTAIRS.
Nonno asks, LET'S SEE WHAT WE CAN GET, OKAY?
Noah says, LET'S GO GET IT.
Nonno says, I GOTTA WORK ON THE DRYWALL, OKAY?
Noah runs into a tool room.
Noah says, I KNOW A HAMMER. I KNOW HAMMERS. HAMMERS! HA HA! A HAMMER! TAPE MEASURE, WHERE ARE YOU?
Noah holds a tape measure and a hammer.
Noah says, YES, YES, YES, YES.
Noah takes a screwdriver off a peg.
Noah says, NOPE.
Subtitle: “I feel like he might like this one.”
Nonno says, I REALLY LOVE THAT LEVEL.
Noah says, YEAH.
Nonno says, THANK YOU FOR BRINGING IT. YOU'RE GREAT, MAN.
Noah says, I GOT A TAPE MEASURE, SCREWDRIVER, HAMMER. THREE THINGS.
Noah taps the hammer against the screwdriver.
[Tapping]
Nonno says, GREAT JOB! SAY HI TO DADDY FOR ME.
Noah says, OKAY!
[Upbeat music plays]
Colin narrates, NOW, WHAT NOAH ALSO DOESN'T KNOW, IS THAT ALL THIS TIME,
OUR CAMERA CREW, DISGUISED AS INTERNET REPAIRMEN WORKING IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD, HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING HIM, AND KEEPING A CLOSE EYE.
[Dramatic music plays]
Noah stops walking.
Noah asks, DID HE FALL?
Noah runs to a crewmember sitting on a curb.
Noah asks, OH, BUDDY, DID YOU FALL?
The crewmember says, OH, NO. I'M JUST CHECKING THE WI-FI.
Noah says, OH, OKAY.
The crewmember says, YEAH.
Colin narrates, GOOD ACTING THERE, CAMERAMAN. I SMELL AN EMMY.
[Upbeat music plays]
In front of the house, Diego says, YES!
Noah says, I GOT ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU NEEDED.
Diego says, DID YOU?
Diego says, LET'S GO, LET'S SEE.
Noah says, ONE IS IN MY POCKET.
Colin narrates, TIME TO BUILD THAT BIRDHOUSE.
Noah says, HAMMER.
Diego says, GOOD JOB, MAN. HIGH FIVE? UH, NOAH?
[Dramatic music plays]
Noah asks, WHAT?
Diego asks, CAN YOU DO ME ONE BIG FAVOUR?
Noah asks, WHAT?
Diego says, I NEED SIX MORE OF THESE. NONNO HAS THEM. SIX SCREWS.
Noah says, I CAN FIND SIX.
Diego says, OKAY. SO, ONCE THESE COME, WE CAN FINISH THE BIRDHOUSE.
Noah says, YAY!
Diego says, OKAY, YOU KNOW WHAT? MAYBE GET SEVEN, JUST IN CASE THERE'S-- WE NEED A LITTLE MORE. OKAY, GOOD. GOOD JOB, BUDDY.
Noah says, BYE!
Noah runs out of the garage.
[Energetic music plays]
Colin narrates, BACK HE GOES. I WONDER IF NOAH'S MORE EXCITED TO GET THE SCREWS TO FINALLY FINISH THE BIRDHOUSE OR TO SEE HIS BEST BUD, NONNO, AGAIN?
Noah stops and holds a thin tree trunk.
Noah says, WHEW! OH, THIS IS TIRED. AH. I'M GONNA KEEP GOING.
Noah stomps on the sidewalk.
[Stomping]
Noah arrives at Nonno’s house.
Noah says, I'M BACK! DADDY SAID, I NEED SEVEN OF THESE.
Nonno says, OH.
Noah says, YEAH.
Nonno says, OH, I THINK I KNOW WHERE THEY ARE.
Noah asks, YOU KNOW?
Nonno says, YEAH.
Noah says, GOOD JOB!
Noah walks to a table in the basement. He looks into a container of screws.
Noah says, LET'S SEE.
[Screws rattling, upbeat music plays]
Noah says, OKAY, I FOUND SOME.
Noah takes one screw at a time and puts it in his pocket.
Noah says, ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN. OKAY, I GOT THEM!
Noah leaves Nonno’s house.
Nonno says, WALK CAREFULLY, OKAY?
[Energetic music plays]
Colin narrates, WITH THE THIRD TRIP ALMOST COMPLETE, NOAH FINALLY HAS EVERYTHING THEY NEED TO FINISH THE BIRDHOUSE.
Noah says, I CAN'T BELIEVE I DID IT THREE TIMES! THE FIRST TIME I WAS SCARED, BUT I DID IT.
In front of the house, Claire says, THERE HE IS. YAY!
Noah runs to Claire.
[Applause, Noah panting]
Claire says, OH, MY GOODNESS. MY BIG BOY.
[Claire laughing]
Claire hugs Noah.
Claire says, OH, MY ANGEL, YOU DID IT, MAN.
Noah says, I GOT THEM IN MY POCKET.
[Claire applauding]
Claire says, WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU.
In the interview, Claire says, NOAH DID AMAZING. AND WE'RE SO PROUD, AND SO EXCITED.
Diego asks, DID YOU GET MY SCREWS?
Noah says, YES!
Claire says, YOU DID IT!
In the interview, Claire says, HE CRUSHED IT.
Diego says, YEAH, YEAH, HE WAS AWESOME.
Later in the garage, Noah looks at the nearly finished birdhouse.
Noah says, PERFECT.
Diego says, PERFECT. AND NOW IT'S TIME FOR THE ROOF.
Noah says, ROOF!
In the interview, Claire says, WE SAW TODAY, LIKE, WHAT HE'S CAPABLE OF. AND WHEN WE'RE GIVING HIM THAT ENCOURAGEMENT AND, YOU KNOW, THE PUSH TO, TO DO BETTER, AND TO STRIVE, HE CLEARLY CAN SUCCEED.
The family walks to a small tree. Diego holds up the birdhouse and Claire picks Noah up.
Claire asks, ALL RIGHT?
In the interview, Diego says, IT'S GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO HOPEFULLY STICK WITH HIM FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.
Noah says, BYE, BIRDHOUSE, I'LL KISS YOU.
Noah kisses the birdhouse.
[Smooching]
Claire says, AWWW!
Diego says, LET'S GO INSIDE NOW.
Claire says, GREAT JOB. LET'S GO.
Noah says, THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER.
