00:00Every day when you're walking down the street Everybody that you meet Has an original point of view
00:11And I say, hey, what a wonderful kind of day If you could learn to work and play And get along with each other
00:22You got to listen to your heart, listen to the beat Listen to the rhythm, rhythm of the street
00:28Open up your eyes, open up your ears Get together and make things better By working together
00:34It's a simple message And it comes from the heart
00:39Oh, believe in yourself For that's the place to start
00:44And I say, hey, what a wonderful kind of day If you could learn to work and play And get along with each other
00:54Hey, what a wonderful kind of day Hey, what a wonderful kind of day
00:59Hey!
01:00Hey, D.W.!
01:03Hey!
01:10Ever wonder why people change from one thing to another?
01:14Sometimes change can be, well, strange.
01:18Like the time Mrs. McGrady tried a dessert experiment.
01:21Eggplant gelatin.
01:24Vomit-rocious!
01:30Sometimes change can be an improvement.
01:33Like when D.W. watched so many Kitty Corner videos that she started acting like a cat.
01:43D.W., down!
01:46For one whole week, I could get her to do whatever I wanted.
01:51Look, D.W., a mouse!
01:58But if somebody changes too much, well, then it's time for drastic action.
02:07Arthur Goes Crosswire
02:14I bet Mr. Rafferty signed another report today.
02:17Yeah, he hasn't assigned one since... yesterday.
02:23This report should be at least two pages on any animal of your choosing.
02:27Where they live, what they eat, and anything that's unusual.
02:31The teams for the report will be as follows.
02:34Arthur, Reed, and...
02:40Maybe it won't be that bad.
02:42Oh, thank you, Daddy! You're wonderful!
02:46Arthur, over here!
02:48Good news, Arthur. For the report, my father says he'll take us whale-watching.
02:52You mean...
02:53Yep! Arthur and I are going to be spending a lot of time together on my yacht.
02:57Come on, Arthur!
02:59Whoa!
03:10See anything?
03:13No. You?
03:16Water.
03:19Lots of water.
03:23Boring! We didn't see a thing.
03:26We have to go again today.
03:28What am I going to do?
03:30You can always say you're sick.
03:32That's it! Buster, you're a genius!
03:35Tell us everything, Arthur! Everything!
03:38Muffy's boat wasn't that fancy, was it?
03:41Huh? Was there a chandelier? Fancy chocolates? Ice sculptures?
03:46I bet Muffy's yacht doesn't even have a swimming pool.
03:49Well, actually, it did. But...
03:53Really?
03:55Cool!
03:57You are so lucky, Arthur! I'd give anything to go on Muffy's yacht.
04:01Really?
04:04Come on, Arthur! The yacht's waiting!
04:07Arthur can't go today, Muffy. He's sick.
04:11Oh. Okay. Whatever.
04:14Great! I'm feeling better! In fact, I feel great!
04:17Arthur, you're not really going, are you?
04:20Are you kidding? Some people would give anything to go on Muffy's yacht!
04:30See anything?
04:32Look! It's Wilbur Rabbit, the guy who plays Bionic Bunny!
04:36Quit kidding around, Arthur!
04:38Ahoy there!
04:41Who? Me?
04:44Seems our engine conked out. Can you give us a lift ashore?
04:48Wow!
04:52Then Wilbur told me, Arty, those are swell glasses.
04:56Of course they are exactly like his.
04:59It's incredible! The odds of meeting Bionic Bunny in real life are minuscule!
05:03Meet him! Arthur Rabbit!
05:07Arthur rescued him!
05:09Arthur rescued Bionic Bunny?
05:11He might have been lost at sea forever if you didn't find him.
05:15Wow!
05:17He'll probably mention that when we're both on TV tonight.
05:27Even way out at sea, my adoring fans managed to find me.
05:36Hey, that's me!
05:40And my head was like this big on Muffy's high-D TV.
05:45Man!
05:47Hey, Brain, Arthur was on TV last night with Bionic Bunny.
05:50That's funny. I don't remember seeing that on the news.
05:54It wasn't on the news, Brain. It was on the celebrities at Sea Network.
05:58That's on satellite TV.
06:01Oh.
06:02Don't you have satellite TV?
06:04Well, no. We...
06:07Muffy does. Maybe she'll even invite you over sometime.
06:15We the people.
06:17Hey, that sounds good.
06:19Who are friends of Wilbur Rabbit.
06:22Pledge to...
06:24Hi! What are you doing?
06:26We're making up the pledge for our new club.
06:29Really? Cool!
06:31The Wilbur Rabbit Society.
06:34Can we join? We love Bionic Bunny.
06:37His name is Wilbur.
06:39He only plays Bionic Bunny on TV.
06:42Everybody knows that.
06:44And besides, the club is for friends only.
06:49That means only people who actually know Wilbur can join.
06:56With liberty and justice for...
06:58Oh!
07:00Oops.
07:04Come on, Arthur. Come on, Muffy. Let's play.
07:07And get my new dress dirty?
07:10I don't think so.
07:12Come on, Arthur.
07:14We've got better things to do, don't we, Muffy?
07:18Things where you don't get all dirty.
07:21Oops.
07:23Um...
07:25You're not going to eat that, are you?
07:28It's been on the ground.
07:30But it's in a bag.
07:32It didn't really get dirty.
07:34Well, it's your choice if you want to eat a germwich.
07:37Vomit-rocious!
07:39If you don't want it, Arthur, I'll take it.
07:41My mother only gave me one sandwich again.
07:44Thanks, Muffy.
07:46If you don't want it, Arthur, I'll take it.
07:48My mother only gave me one sandwich again.
07:51Some people will eat anything.
08:01Hey, Arthur, you dropped a book.
08:04Aren't you going to pick it up?
08:10It's just a book. It can be replaced.
08:13You can't be bothered with every little thing.
08:17Besides, it's all dirty now.
08:20Vomit-rocious!
08:24Did you see that?
08:27Arthur loves books.
08:29What's the matter with him?
08:33Hey, Arthur, wait up!
08:35Arthur, you...
08:37Uh, um...
08:39Of course you can have my autograph.
08:42Sorry, I have to go now.
08:45No more autographs.
08:47Huh?
08:49Pinky, Arthur's gone haywire.
08:52Or should I say crosswire?
09:00Hey, Arthur, you want to go to the arcade?
09:02They've got Planet Smasher.
09:04It's supposed to be really cool.
09:06Sorry, can't.
09:08The Wilbur Rabbit Society meets today.
09:10That sounds even better. Where are we meeting?
09:12You have to be a friend of Wilbur's to join.
09:15That's the rule.
09:17Friends only.
09:19But I'm your friend, aren't I, Arthur?
09:22It's for Wilbur's friends.
09:25Oh.
09:30In case any of you haven't noticed,
09:32Arthur's turned into Muffy.
09:34Yeah, he's gone crosswire.
09:38We want Arthur back.
09:40He has to be demuffified.
09:42Yeah, but how?
09:44Well, we'd better think fast
09:46before it spreads to all of us.
09:48Wait a minute. That's it, Buster.
09:50You know how to save Arthur?
09:52Yeah. Listen, everyone.
09:54What we're going to do is...
10:00Maybe he's not coming.
10:02Shh.
10:04Get ready.
10:06How darling would this hat be on me?
10:08Oh, look.
10:10I remember when I used to play that silly game.
10:16Ew. I'm not touching that.
10:18It's been in dirt.
10:20Vomit-rocious.
10:22Keep that away from me.
10:24I'm too tired
10:26to go all the way to Home Plate.
10:28I'll stop here.
10:30What's the matter with everyone?
10:32They're all acting like...
10:34like...
10:38I want to pitch to someone
10:40who doesn't hit so hard.
10:42Buster, you next.
10:44This glove is hideous.
10:46It doesn't go with my outfit at all.
10:50They're all acting like...
10:52you.
10:54Hey, Arthur.
10:56The Bionic Bunny Club is meeting tonight
10:58and we're all going to watch the show together.
11:00Bionic Bunny Club?
11:02What time should I come over?
11:04You can't come, Arthur.
11:06The club's only for Bionic Bunny fans,
11:08not Wilbur Rabbit's friends.
11:10Sorry, Arthur.
11:12They're not acting like me, Arthur.
11:14They're acting like you.
11:16Like...
11:18Don't you have satellite TV?
11:20The club is for friends only.
11:24Vomit-rocious.
11:28Friends only.
11:30But I...
11:32Everyone, listen to me.
11:34I didn't mind it when Arthur
11:36started copycatting me,
11:38but this is too much.
11:40I know you all want to be like me,
11:42but there's only one me.
11:44I'm sorry.
11:48Vomit!
11:52Uh-oh.
12:00Okay, if I play?
12:02Sure. Nice outfit.
12:04Now let's really play some ball.
12:10I think Muffy's right.
12:12One Muffy is more than enough.
12:14Want to come to my house and watch Bionic Bunny?
12:16Sure.
12:20The more I think about it,
12:22it's really true.
12:24This horrid glove totally clashes
12:26with my outfit.
12:28Vomit-rocious!
12:36Arthur tries to act like Muffy.
12:40Arthur, if he wants to act,
12:42should take an acting class.
12:44You are going to be the king.
12:46I am King Christopher.
12:48This is the all-children's theater
12:50storybook theater class.
12:52Here's my costume!
12:54We're rehearsing a play today.
12:56I have a gift for you all.
12:58It is this magic diamond.
13:00We're in an acting class,
13:02and we're learning how to act.
13:04What do you think your name is
13:06going to be?
13:08Princess Serana?
13:10Oh!
13:12Yeah, I'm an actor,
13:14but actors act like somebody else.
13:16You don't want to be like somebody else.
13:18I am Princess Serana.
13:20Don't slouch, don't slouch.
13:22Acting is like pretending.
13:24The diamond's gone!
13:26You just use your imagination
13:28and put on costumes.
13:32If you want to be a good actor,
13:34you have to have a lot of concentration
13:36and rehearse a lot.
13:38Announcing a ball
13:40for our granddaughters!
13:42We're going to do it one more time.
13:44Announcing a ball
13:46for our lovely granddaughters!
13:48Announcing a ball
13:50for our lovely daughters!
13:52No, a grand ball.
13:54Announcing a grand ball
13:56for our lovely daughters!
13:58I like acting
14:00because it's really fun.
14:02That diamond,
14:04Father!
14:06If you want to act,
14:08you should become an actor.
14:12And now, back to Arthur!
14:18You know, some people
14:20just have to do everything themselves.
14:22Cut, cut, cut!
14:24I'm sorry, Arthur. I have to stop you.
14:26This is just too boring.
14:28Boring?
14:30You need a little enthusiasm here.
14:32More energy.
14:34Put a little shape into the line.
14:36Remember, this is the opening of the show.
14:38Try it again.
14:42Some people just have to do
14:44everything themselves.
14:46That was it?
14:48That's enthusiastic?
14:50Yeah, well,
14:52that was practice.
14:58Some people
15:00just have to do
15:02everything themselves.
15:04How was that?
15:08Tease, take seven.
15:12You know, some people
15:14just have to do
15:16everything themselves.
15:18They won't let anybody help them.
15:20I think that's much better.
15:22Okay, that's a wrap.
15:24Cue the title.
15:34I hope Mr. Ratburn
15:36assigns another report today.
15:38Are you kidding?
15:40We just turned one in yesterday.
15:42What?
15:44This report should be at least two pages
15:46on any animal of your choosing.
15:48Where they live, what they eat,
15:50and anything that's unusual.
15:52The teams for the report will be as follows.
15:54Arthur Reed and...
15:56Muffy Crosswire.
15:58Alan, your report partner will be Sue Ellen.
16:04A model dinosaur?
16:06That's a great idea, Brain.
16:08I'll get started on some preliminary sketches.
16:10What should I do?
16:12The sketches have to be done first.
16:14That's why they're called preliminary.
16:16I'll call you when I'm done with them.
16:18Great. So long.
16:22I've never done a report with Brain before.
16:24It should be fun.
16:26It'll be easy, that's for sure.
16:28How do you mean?
16:30You'll see, Sue Ellen. Brain is kind of the type that...
16:32Brain's great.
16:34He's the best report partner I ever had.
16:36Well, I'm your partner this time, Buster.
16:38Great. If you know what I mean.
16:40Come on.
16:42We're going to the library.
16:46Sue Ellen, don't you have any homework to do?
16:48Not yet.
16:50Brain's doing the sketches.
16:52They're preliminary.
16:54Well, maybe I'll call him and see how it's going.
17:00This is gonna be fantastic.
17:04Even back in elementary school,
17:06when I was building my first model,
17:08I knew that with a little DNA
17:10and a lot of hard work,
17:12I would one day succeed.
17:14And now, ladies and gentlemen,
17:16it lives!
17:20Please, ladies and gentlemen,
17:22I implore you, be calm.
17:26Hello, hello, hello.
17:28Welcome to the show.
17:30So I tell you, the strangest thing happened to me.
17:32Last night, I discovered an elephant in my pajamas.
17:34How the elephant got in my pajamas,
17:36I'll never know.
17:44Hmm. I have to work on his material.
17:48Hello?
17:50Hi, Brain.
17:52I just called to find out how the sketches are going.
17:54Great. We're ready to go on to the next stage.
17:56Great.
17:58I was getting a little worried I was gonna have to
18:00sit around and just watch TV all week.
18:02What do you want me to do?
18:04You?
18:06Uh, well, maybe you should, um,
18:08continue watching TV.
18:10Gotta go do some research. Bye.
18:12Very weird.
18:18This is our model of a Tyrannosaurus rex.
18:20And I helped!
18:22The arms are made of cookies,
18:24and the body is made out of cake!
18:26Cookies!
18:30Unfortunately,
18:32this isn't a cooking class.
18:34You fail!
18:44And then he hung up the phone on me.
18:46Well, you're lucky.
18:48I can't even find Buster.
18:50I hope he doesn't think I'm gonna do the whole report by myself.
18:52I hope Brain realizes
18:54I have to do half the work on this report.
18:56I don't mind working.
18:58Brain? Is that you?
19:00What? No, I mean...
19:06That's strange. He vanished.
19:12That was close.
19:14You're telling me.
19:16You almost gave away my position.
19:20I would deduce that the Brain's
19:22probably just strange because he's been working too hard.
19:24It could be he's not getting enough sleep.
19:40Ah!
19:42Must keep working!
19:44Must keep working!
19:48What are you doing?
19:50I'm going home.
19:52Brain can't do this report alone.
19:56Wow. Did Brain ask you for help?
19:58No. I'm gonna surprise him.
20:00Oh, he'll be surprised, all right.
20:02Phew.
20:12Hey, Brain, I came to help you with the research.
20:14That's all done. Look.
20:16Wow, that's great.
20:18What do we do now, Brain?
20:20I need to finish wiring the vertebrae,
20:22and then, of course, the head.
20:24The head! We can make that with papier-mâché.
20:26Um, clay is better.
20:28Okay. I have clay at home.
20:30I'll go get started on the head.
20:42I'm afraid you're going to be in third grade
20:44for a long time, Alan.
20:48Yeah.
21:18I brought the...
21:20What's the matter?
21:22You look tired.
21:24Ah, working late.
21:26Come on, let's get to work.
21:28Okay.
21:30Hey, Alan.
21:32Hey, Alan.
21:34Hey, Alan.
21:36Hey, Alan.
21:38Hey, Alan.
21:40Hey, Alan.
21:42Hey, Alan.
21:44Hey, Alan.
21:46Working late.
21:48Come on, I have something to show you.
21:50Voila!
21:54Uh, it looks great,
21:56but I thought I was making the head.
21:58I decided to take care of it.
22:00The head's the most important part.
22:02Well, I'm sorry you went to all that trouble for nothing.
22:04Here.
22:06We can't use this.
22:08What?
22:10That head is all wrong.
22:12The proportions of the nasal cavities are way off,
22:14and it's so cute.
22:16No, Mr. Radburn would never accept this.
22:20They look exactly the same.
22:22Maybe to the untrained eye.
22:24It's supposed to be our project, Brain,
22:26not just yours.
22:28Yours, mine, ours.
22:30I don't have time to argue over silly stuff.
22:32I have to work to get this finished.
22:34You want a good grade, don't you?
22:38The proportions of the nasal cavities are all wrong.
22:40I'm the smartest guy ever.
22:42Honey, are you having a bad dream?
22:44No.
22:46A bad reality.
22:52Brain,
22:54we have to talk about our report.
22:56I have everything under control.
22:58I know.
23:00That's the problem.
23:02Brain, you're gonna drop it.
23:04Let me help.
23:06No, no, I can do it.
23:08Don't touch it.
23:10You're making a report hog.
23:12Please, it's very delicate.
23:16Fine, take it.
23:22Now look what you've done.
23:24And she let you fall in the mud?
23:28That sounds hilarious.
23:30Believe me, it was far from amusing.
23:32Well, you're lucky she only let you fall in the mud.
23:34If it were me, I would have pushed you.
23:36What?
23:38Because I'm kind of a rude person.
23:40But you, well, you have to admit, Brain,
23:42Swellen's right.
23:44You're a report hog.
23:46Like last year, on our French history report,
23:48you were Napoleon and I was France.
23:50And you wouldn't even give me any lines.
23:52Shh.
23:56Even when we were little,
23:58you always had to do everything.
24:00And how would you like it if Swellen treated you
24:02the way you treated her?
24:04Don't touch that.
24:06You're fiddling with my precious A+.
24:08You don't know what you're doing.
24:10Go home.
24:14I guess...
24:16I guess I would feel pretty bad
24:18if somebody didn't trust me to work on our report.
24:20Well, I'm sorry I called you a report hog.
24:22Now we don't even have a report to hog.
24:24Our model is wrecked.
24:26Maybe.
24:28But our report will be better than ever.
24:30How?
24:32Trust me.
24:34Okay.
24:36The largest mammal on Earth.
24:38Very good.
24:40Well done.
24:42Alan and Swellen will report next.
24:44Mr. Ratburn,
24:46can we all go outside?
24:48Brain and I set up a special demonstration
24:50for our report.
24:52All right.
24:54Field trip.
24:56We have recreated
24:58what paleontologists might find
25:00when they discover dinosaur bones.
25:02Wow, Brain.
25:04This is cool.
25:06It was really Swellen.
25:08Now you can all dig them up if you want.
25:10But there is a proper way to do it.
25:12And Brain will show you how.
25:16Swellen's right.
25:18You must be Swellen.

25:50You've got to listen to your heart.
25:52Listen to the beat.
25:54Listen to the rhythm.
25:56Rhythm of the street.

26:00and it comes from the heart.
26:02Believe in yourself.
