|
Zoom in on a jungle treehouse; Blaze, AJ and Stripes are swinging on swings inside.
|
Blaze and AJ
|
(various cheering)
|
|
Blaze hops off his swing onto one end of a seesaw; Stripes jumps off his and lands on the other end.
|
Stripes
|
Rarrarrarr!
|
Blaze
|
Yeah!
|
|
They bounce on either end.
|
Blaze
|
Whoooo-hoo!
|
|
Now Blaze swings on log poles.
|
AJ
|
Yeah! Whee-hee!
|
|
Blaze lands on a platform and faces the viewer.
|
Blaze
|
Hey! I'm Blaze!
|
AJ
|
And I'm AJ, his driver.
|
|
Now Stripes swings on a log.
|
Stripes
|
Yeah! (stops; to the viewer:) And I'm their friend, Stripes! The tiger truck! Rawwr!
|
|
They bounce on two tree trunk trampolines.
|
Blaze and AJ
|
(indistinct cheering and laughter)
|
Blaze
|
This is where Stripes lives, inside this amazing treehouse!
|
Blaze, AJ and Stripes
|
Hoo-hoo!/Oh, yeah! (laughing)
|
Blaze
|
Yeah-heh!
|
Stripes
|
Rawwr! Yeah, yeah! (lands)
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Whooooo-hoo!/Whoo-hoo!
|
|
They land as well; AJ gets off.
|
AJ
|
Stripes, your treehouse is cool!
|
Stripes
|
Oh-ho, thanks, AJ. But just wait -- you guys haven't even seen the best part yet! Wait here, I just gotta climb up and get it!
|
|
He drives over to the big tree in the center.
|
Stripes
|
Tiger claws!
|
|
His claws pop out; he begins to climb the tree.
|
Stripes
|
Rawwr! Rar...rrr...row...rawwr!
|
|
He comes to a platform with a little red door.
|
Stripes
|
You're gonna love this!
|
|
He knocks on the door; it opens revealing an ancient horn inside.
|
Stripes
|
It's...my jungle horn!
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Whoa!
|
|
He grabs the jungle horn and blows into it, playing a melodic fanfare and producing a gold contrail as he swings back to the ground.
|
AJ
|
Wow. I've never seen a jungle horn before.
|
Blaze
|
Where'd you get it, Stripes?
|
Stripes
|
My animal friends gave it to me. And when I blow into it, the sound calls them. Come on, I'll show ya!
|
|
Stripes leads Blaze and AJ onto the balcony and blows the jungle horn again; the melody sounds, and the contrail extends outward to a tree where three monkeys hear and swing over.
|
AJ
|
Look! Monkeys!
|
|
They land on the balcony.
|
Blaze
|
(laughs)
|
|
Two of them surround AJ and he pets them.
|
AJ
|
(laughs)
|
Blaze
|
(laughs)
|
Stripes
|
Heya, monkeys! Come on in, it's time to play!
|
|
The monkeys run into the treehouse and play.
|
AJ
|
That's so cool!
|
Blaze
|
Do it again, Stripes!
|
Stripes
|
All right, let's see who we call this time!
|
|
He blows the jungle horn again; this time, the contrail extends to the forest where three parrots fly in its direction.
|
Blaze
|
Ooh! Check it out, parrots!
|
|
They fly over to them.
|
Stripes
|
Come on in, friends!
|
|
The parrots fly inside; Stripes blows the jungle horn yet again, the contrail extending to stalks of bamboo near the balcony. Croaking is heard; a frog hops onto one of the leaves.
|
AJ
|
(to the viewer:) What animal makes that sound?
|
|
Viewer responds "A frog."
|
AJ
|
A frog, yeah! Lots of frogs!
|
|
Three of them hop onto the balcony and mingle.
|
AJ
|
(laughs)
|
|
One hops onto Blaze's hood.
|
Blaze
|
(laughs)
|
|
Another hops onto Stripes' hood.
|
Stripes
|
(laughs; hugs it) Okay, froggy. I'm happy to see you, too.
|
|
After the last frog goes inside; Stripes blows the jungle horn one more time, the contrail extending past the bamboo where a panda hears, and it slides down to them.
|
Blaze
|
Whoa! Who's that, Stripes?
|
Stripes
|
That's my friend, Panda Bear. (it hugs him) Aww, hiya, Panda! Come inside!
|
|
All the animals play indoors until Stripes plays an upbeat song on the jungle horn and leads them in a conga line. Through the window, Crusher and Pickle watch.
|
Pickle
|
Wow! Look, Crusher! Stripes has a jungle horn! It must be calling all those animals to come and play with him! Oh, he's so lucky!
|
Crusher
|
Ohhhh...I wish I had a jungle horn! Then I can call the animals! Only instead of playing with them, I'd keep them as my pets, and they'd have to do whatever I tell them!
|
Pickle
|
Huh, I-I don't think the animals would like that so much.
|
|
Inside, Stripes finishes his song.
|
Stripes
|
Rawwr! Come on, everyone! Let's play!
|
|
He puts the jungle horn on a tree stump near the window and leads the animals away; Crusher peeks in.
|
Crusher
|
(snickers) I'm gonna grab the jungle horn when no one's looking! Gimmie a boost, Pickle.
|
|
He stands on Pickle's head and reaches for the jungle horn.
|
Pickle
|
Ow...ow! Hey, you're stepping on-ow! That's my-oh, ow!
|
Crusher
|
I can almost reach it...just a little farther...!
|
Pickle
|
You can get down, now...?
|
|
He grabs the jungle horn; Pickle stumbles.
|
Crusher
|
Ha-ha! I've got it! (sings:) I've got the jungle horn, yeah, yeah! And now it belongs to me, me, me!
|
|
They fall over the balcony and bounce off the tree leaves.
|
Pickle
|
WAIT FOR MEEEEEEE!!!!
|
|
Crusher lands at the bottom.
|
Pickle
|
Wheeeeeee! (lands on Crusher's head) Oops.
|
Crusher
|
Ugh...
|
|
Inside, Blaze, AJ, Stripes and the animals play catch when the panda sounds a warning.
|
Blaze
|
Hang on, everyone. I think the panda's trying to show us something.
|
|
They go onto the balcony and the panda points below; Crusher and Pickle are leaving with the jungle horn in hand.
|
Crusher
|
(snickers)
|
AJ
|
(gasps) It's Crusher!
|
Stripes
|
Oh, no! He took my jungle horn!
|
Crusher
|
(giggles)
|
Stripes
|
Rarrr! I can't let Crusher have the jungle horn, he'll use it to make the animals his pets!
|
|
The animals make worried sounds.
|
Blaze
|
Don't worry, animals. We won't let that happen. Stripes, we're gonna help you get your jungle horn back!
|
Stripes
|
All right!
|
|
The animals cheer; AJ boards Blaze.
|
Blaze
|
AJ, gimmie some speed!
|
AJ
|
Yeah!
|
|
They slide down the treehouse slide.
|
Blaze, AJ and Stripes
|
Yeah!/Whoo-hoo!
|
|
They reach the bottom and enter the jungle; travel song starts.
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Whoa...
|
AJ
|
Here we go, there's nothing to it Rev it up Yeah, we can do it Moving at the speed of light Prepare to be amazed
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Let's Blaze!
|
AJ
|
Come on!
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Let's Blaze!
|
Blaze
|
It's time!
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Let's Blaze!
|
AJ
|
We're pickin' up steam!
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Let's Blaze!
|
Blaze
|
We make a great team!
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Let's Blaze! Gimmie some speed! Let's Blaze!
|
|
Song ends; Crusher and Pickle are far ahead.
|
Crusher
|
(sings:) Ooh, yea-ah! I've got the jungle horn, and I'm gonna make the animals my pets!
|
Pickle
|
(also singing:) Yes, but you probably shouldn't do that, because it's not a very nice thing to do-o-o!
|
|
Blaze's horn sounds.
|
Crusher
|
(gasps) It's Blaze! Oh no, he must be helping Stripes get the jungle horn back!
|
Pickle
|
Man, what a good friend he is.
|
Crusher
|
But, Pickle, I can't let them take the jungle horn back! It's mine, now!
|
|
They cross a bridge over a muddy swamp.
|
Crusher
|
(snickers) This'll stop 'em!
|
|
He bangs against the bridge post, causing it to fall into the mud and sink. Blaze and Stripes come forward.
|
Blaze
|
WHOA! LOOK OUT!
|
|
They stop in time.
|
Stripes
|
Oh, no! Crusher knocked out the bridge!
|
Crusher
|
Oops! Hahahaha! (sings:) The jungle horn's mi-ine! All mine, mine, mi-ine! (hits a tree) OW! (gets covered in bananas) Eeyuck!
|
Pickle
|
(giggles and tastes some) That's tasty!
|
Crusher
|
(groans)
|
|
Crusher and Pickle head off.
|
AJ
|
What do we do now, Blaze? We can't just let Crusher get away!
|
Blaze
|
Hmm. There has to be some other way to get across this swamp.
|
Stripes
|
(gasps) Wait a second, I know a way!
|
|
He shows them three swings which hang over the bog.
|
Stripes
|
We can get across on these!
|
AJ
|
Whoa! What are they, Stripes?
|
Stripes
|
They're jungle swings. If we jump on them, we can swing to the other side, like this! (backs up and jumps) Rawwwwr! (lands) See? No probl -- (the swing leans; he slips) AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! WHOAAAA!
|
Blaze
|
Gaskets! That swing isn't balanced! (to the viewer:) To balance, it has to weigh the same on both sides!
|
AJ
|
Stripes is on one side, so we need to get to the other side.
|
Blaze
|
HANG ON, STRIPES! WE'RE COMING!
|
|
He jumps onto the swing, balancing it.
|
Stripes
|
Hey, you guys did it! You balanced the swing!
|
Blaze
|
Come on, let's jump to the next swing. Ready, Stripes?
|
Stripes
|
Ready!
|
|
They jump.
|
Blaze and Stripes
|
Yah/Rawwr!
|
AJ
|
Yes! We made it!
|
Blaze
|
And we're nice and balanced.
|
|
Butterflies fly over them.
|
Stripes
|
Ooh, look! Butterflies!
|
|
One of them lands next to Blaze.
|
Stripes
|
And hey, that one landed on your side, Blaze.
|
|
Its force causes the swing to lean in its direction.
|
Blaze, AJ and Stripes
|
Whoaaaaaa!!!!!! Whoa!!!
|
AJ
|
Uh-oh, and now we don't weigh the same on both sides anymore.
|
Blaze
|
(to the viewer:) Quick, we need to find the other butterfly to go on Stripes' side.
|
|
The butterfly squeaks and looks up; pan in its direction to the treetops.
|
Blaze
|
Where do you see a butterfly?
|
|
The butterfly amongst the flowers squeaks and flaps its wings; viewer responds, and it lights up.
|
Blaze
|
Yeah! There it is! Hey, butterfly! Can you help us balance?
|
|
The butterfly flits over to them and lands on Stripes' side, balancing the swing.
|
Blaze
|
Ah!
|
Stripes
|
It worked!
|
Blaze
|
We're balanced now that there's a butterfly on each side.
|
AJ
|
Come on! Let's hurry and get to the next swing!
|
|
They jump.
|
Blaze and Stripes
|
Yah!/Rawwr!
|
Stripes
|
Nice jump!
|
|
More butterflies appear.
|
Blaze
|
Look out! More butterflies!
|
|
One lands on Blaze's side, three land on Stripes; the swing leans in Stripes' direction.
|
Blaze, AJ and Stripes
|
Whoaaaaaaaaa!!! Oh!!!!!!!
|
Stripes
|
Blaze, I'm slipping!! (pops out claws to hold on)
|
AJ
|
Uh-oh. Stripes' side has three butterflies, but our side only has one.
|
Blaze
|
(to the viewer:) Quick, we've gotta find two more butterflies to go on our side.
|
|
Pan to the treetops.
|
Blaze
|
Where do you see two butterflies?
|
|
The hiding butterflies flap their wings; viewer responds, they light up.
|
Blaze
|
Yeah! There they are!
|
AJ
|
Hey, butterflies! We need your help!
|
|
The butterflies fly over and land on Blaze's side, balancing the swing.
|
Blaze
|
Ah!
|
Stripes
|
Rawwr! It worked!
|
Blaze
|
Great job balancing, everyone!
|
AJ
|
And look, there's the end of the swamp!
|
Stripes
|
Oooooh, that's a pretty big jump.
|
Blaze
|
Come on, we'll jump together on the count of three. (to the viewer:) Count with us.
|
Blaze, AJ and Stripes
|
One...two...three!!!
|
|
They make it.
|
Stripes
|
Rawwr!
|
Blaze
|
Yeah! (high tires Stripes)
|
Stripes
|
Whoo-hoo!
|
AJ
|
We made it!
|
Blaze
|
Now let's get going so we can catch up with Crusher!
|
Stripes
|
Yeah, and get my jungle horn back!
|
Blaze
|
AJ, gimmie some speed!
|
|
He and Stripes take off.
|
Stripes
|
Rrrrraaaawwwwrrrrr!!!
|
|
One butterfly sees them off; STEM song starts.
|
Blaze
|
One, two, three, four!
|
Blaze and AJ
|
B-b-b-balance Oh, oh, oh whoa whoa B-b-b-balance Oh, oh, oh whoa whoa
|
Blaze
|
Keep it even, keep it level Or you're gonna slip Need the same weight on both sides Or else you're gonna tip
|
AJ
|
Sittin' on a seesaw Both sides gotta match (Match!) 'Cause if they don't Yeah, somebody's gonna crash!
|
Stripes
|
Rawwr!
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Balance, balance
|
AJ
|
You gotta keep it steady
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Balance, balance
|
AJ
|
One side can't be too heavy Ba-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-alnce
|
Blaze and AJ
|
Balance, balance Keeping everything steady
B-b-b-balance Oh, oh, oh whoa whoa B-b-b-balance Oh, oh, oh whoa whoa
|
|
Song ends; Crusher and Pickle are even farther ahead.
|
Crusher
|
Okay, Pickle, I'm ready to blow the jungle horn!
|
|
He stops and prepares to blow, only to abruptly stop.
|
Crusher
|
Pickle? Pickle, where'd you go?
|
Pickle
|
I'm up here, Crusher!
|
|
He is in a tree eating mangoes.
|
Pickle
|
Mmm...yum! Mmm! Just getting a little snack.
|
Crusher
|
Pickle, get down from there! I wanna blow the jungle horn so I can get some animals to be my pets.
|
Pickle
|
Be right there, Crusher!
|
|
He swings down and emits a Tarzan-esque yell, only to hit Crusher in the face, smashing mangoes all over him.
|
Crusher
|
Yuck!!
|
Pickle
|
Oops.
|
|
Blaze's horn sounds.
|
Pickle
|
Hey, that sounds like...
|
|
Blaze and Stripes are approaching.
|
Pickle
|
Blaze and Stripes!
|
Crusher
|
WHAT?! Oh...I can't believe those guys are still following us!
|
Pickle
|
Yeah, they must really want that jungle horn back. Maybe, uh...maybe you should just give it to them.
|
Crusher
|
Or...maybe I should do something extra bad, so they can't follow us anymore.
|
|
His chassis bag opens.
|
Crusher
|
(giggles) I'm gonna make...
|
|
Parts fly out and assemble into a robot that looks like a chef with frying pans.
|
Crusher
|
A giant robot chef!
|
|
It lands between two rock formations.
|
Pickle
|
Oh, boy...
|
Crusher
|
This oughta cook up some trouble for Blaze and his pals! (laughs)
|
|
He and Pickle leave; Blaze and Stripes stop and see the robot chef.
|
AJ
|
Uh-oh, Crusher made a robot chef!
|
Stripes
|
No robot chef is gonna stop me from getting my jungle horn back!
|
|
He speeds and tries to pass the robot, but one of his giant frying pans blocks the way; Stripes slams into it, and the robot laughs.
|
Stripes
|
Huh. All righty then, I'll go the other way.
|
|
He attempts to, but is blocked; again the robot laughs, and he tries to go the other way again but is also blocked.
|
Stripes
|
Rawwr!?!
|
|
The robot laughs and he retreats to Blaze.
|
Stripes
|
Oh, man! How are we gonna get past that guy? Every time I try to get by, he blocks the way with those frying pans.
|
|
The robot laughs.
|
AJ
|
(draws a diagram of the robot) Right now, the chef robot has two empty frying pans. They weigh the same, so he's balanced.
|
Blaze
|
Hmm. But if we filled one of them with giant waffles, then it wouldn't be the same on both sides. He be unbalanced, and tip over.
|
|
"Waffles appeared in the diagram and onto one of the robot's frying pan, making him fell over."
|
Stripes
|
Rawwr! I like it!
|
Blaze
|
(to the viewer:) Come on! Let's turn me into a giant waffle maker, so I can make all those waffles!
|
|
Transformation interface appears.
|
Blaze
|
First, we need to build heating elements. They get the waffle maker really hot. To build the heating elements, say "Heating elements." Heating elements!
|
|
Heating elements materialize.
|
Blaze
|
Great! Now let's make the grid plates. When the grid plates heat up, you pour the batter on and it cooks the waffles. To make the grid plates, say "Grid plates." Grid plates!
|
|
Grid plates materialize.
|
Blaze
|
Now we just need a hinge. That's what lets you open and close the waffle maker. Say "Hinge." Hinge!
|
|
Hinge materializes.
|
Blaze
|
All right! I'm a Waffle-Making Mmmmmonster Machine!!
|
|
Blaze transforms; Stripes pushes forward a bowl of batter.
|
Stripes
|
Rawwr! Now let's make some waffles!
|
|
AJ pours the batter onto the grid plate; the waffle maker closes and the three red lights turn green, and it opens to reveal a waffle.
|
AJ
|
Look! Our first waffle's ready!
|
Blaze
|
C'mon, let's put it in the robot's frying pan.
|
|
He hurries over to the robot and tosses the waffle into his left pan; he leans slightly in that direction.
|
AJ
|
It's working! That giant waffle made one side of the robot heavier than the other!
|
Stripes
|
Quick! Let's make some more!
|
|
He adds two more waffles.
|
Blaze
|
Yeah!
|
|
One more.
|
Blaze
|
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
|
|
Four more; the robot chef wobbles until he fell over and self-destructs and sends the waffles flying.
|
Blaze
|
Yeah-heh!
|
AJ
|
We did it!
|
Stripes
|
So long, giant waffles!
|
|
The waffles fly in the direction of Crusher and Pickle.
|
Crusher
|
(snickers) I finally get to blow the jungle horn and make all the animals my pets! Nothing can stop me now!
|
|
He starts to blow the jungle horn, but Pickle spots the falling waffles.
|
Pickle
|
(gasps) Look, Crusher! Giant waffles!
|
Crusher
|
What-fles? (they land on him; he drops the jungle horn) Oh, no!
|
|
the jungle horn bounces and lands in a river.
|
Crusher
|
The jungle horn's getting away!
|
|
Nearby, Stripes sniffs around.
|
Stripes
|
Guys, I'm picking up a scent. I think it's...the jungle horn!
|
|
Pans to the river where the jungle horn is.
|
Blaze
|
(to the viewer:) Where is the jungle horn?
|
|
Viewer responds; the jungle horn lights up.
|
Blaze
|
Yeah! There it is!
|
AJ
|
Uh-oh, but it's floating away! And fast!
|
Stripes
|
(gasps) My jungle horn!!
|
Blaze
|
Our only chance to catch it is to go super fast and use Blazing Speed!
|
|
His speed boosters pop out.
|
Blaze
|
To give me Blazing Speed, shout "Leeeeet's Blaze!"
|
Blaze, AJ and Stripes
|
Leeeeeet's Blaaaaze!
|
Stripes
|
Rawwr!
|
|
They speed until they reach the end of the river where the jungle horn is flowing, which happens to be a waterfall.
|
Stripes
|
Look! Look! We're catching up!
|
Blaze
|
Gaskets! We'd better grab the jungle horn before it goes down that waterfall!
|
|
They stop; Stripes jumps from rock to rock
|
Stripes
|
Rraww! Uuah! (misses) Ahrrrrr, I missed!
|
|
Now Blaze jumps.
|
Blaze
|
(grunts) Let me try! (grunts; also misses) Aww, lugnuts!
|
Stripes
|
Oh, no! It's almost at the falls!
|
|
He jumps to a big log hanging over the falls; Blaze joins eventually.
|
Stripes
|
Rraww! I can almost...reach...!!
|
Blaze
|
Here, Stripes! Hang onto me!
|
|
He clutches Stripes' back tire and he leans forward, grabbing the jungle horn just in time.
|
Stripes
|
Ha-ha! I got it!
|
|
The log begins to lean.
|
Blaze and Stripes
|
(yelling)
|
|
They end up dangling over the end of the log.
|
Stripes
|
Oh, no! We're too heavy! It's making the log unbalanced!
|
Blaze
|
(grunts; to the viewer:) To balance, we need something on the other side that weighs the same as me and Stripes!
|
Stripes
|
(gasps) The jungle horn! I can use it to call my animal friends! They can help us balance!
|
|
He blows it, sounding off the melody and extending the contrail into the jungle. The three frogs hear and hop across the river rocks.
|
Blaze
|
It's working! Here come the frogs!
|
|
They land on the other side of the log.
|
AJ
|
(to the viewer:) Let's see if all of those frogs weigh the same as Blaze and Stripes. Switching to Visor View.
|
|
His visor lowers; cut to interface.
|
AJ
|
Blaze and Stripes weigh...11. And together, all those frogs weigh...
|
|
The number 3 appears.
|
AJ
|
What number is this?
|
|
Viewer responds "3."
|
AJ
|
3, yeah! But 11 is more than 3, so that's not enough to balance the log.
|
Blaze
|
Quick, Stripes! Blow the jungle horn again!
|
|
He does so; the contrail is seen by the three parrots and three monkeys. They join the frogs on the log.
|
Stripes
|
Look! Here come the parrots! And monkeys!
|
|
Interface reappears.
|
AJ
|
(to the viewer:) Now let's see how heavy that side is.
|
|
The number 9 appears.
|
AJ
|
What number is this?
|
|
Viewer responds "9."
|
AJ
|
9! That's a lot, but it's still not as much as Blaze and Stripes.
|
Blaze
|
Go for it, Stripes! Blow that jungle horn!
|
|
He obeys; now the panda hops out of a bush and responds.
|
Blaze
|
It's the panda bear!
|
|
The panda hops across the rocks onto the log; interface reappears, the number 11 appears.
|
AJ
|
(to the viewer:) How much do the animals weigh now?
|
|
Viewer responds "11."
|
AJ
|
11! Yes! They weigh the same as Blaze and Stripes!
|
|
The log balances; Blaze helps Stripes up.
|
Stripes
|
All right!
|
Blaze
|
It worked, Stripes! Your animal friends balanced the log!
|
Stripes
|
Whoo-hoo! Yeah-heh! Thanks, animals! Now everyone, follow me!
|
|
He hops onto land, Blaze and the animals following; Stripes plays the conga song on the jungle horn as everyone marches in a line behind him.
|
Stripes
|
Thanks for helping me get my jungle horn back.
|
Blaze
|
Aww, you're welcome, Stripes.
|
AJ
|
It was nothin'.
|
Stripes
|
You two are the best pals a tiger could ever have. Right, animals?
|
|
The animals cheer and everyone continues marching; elsewhere, Crusher is still stuck under all the giant waffles.
|
Crusher
|
(strains heavilly) I can't believe I'm stuck under all these waffles! Oh...Pickle, you've gotta get me outta here!!
|
Pickle
|
Sure thing, Crusher! I know just what to do! (climbs on top) A little maple syrup...
|
|
He pours some which drip over the waffles onto Crusher
|
Crusher
|
(coughs; hacks) Yuck! Pickle!!
|
Pickle
|
Don't worry, you'll be free just as soon as I eat all these delicious waffles!
|
Crusher
|
Ohh...but that's gonna take all day!
|
