1. Hey!Copy !req
2. Hey!Copy !req
3. Hey!Copy !req
4. Hey!Copy !req
5. Hey, D.W.Copy !req
6. Hey!Copy !req
7. Whoa!Copy !req
8. Did you chop
the onions?Copy !req
9. They'll be here soon.Copy !req
10. If you hadn't forgotten
your friends were coming overCopy !req
11. we wouldn't be rushing.Copy !req
12. D.W.:
Mom!Copy !req
13. We're in the kitchen!Copy !req
14. Keep chopping!Copy !req
15. D.W.:
Mom!Copy !req
16. Arthur said he'd
play "Confuse the
Goose" but he won't!Copy !req
17. I said maybe!Copy !req
18. But I have to do
homework.Copy !req
19. How can I do homeworkCopy !req
20. if she's staring
at me like this?Copy !req
21. Can't you do something until
Arthur's ready to play?Copy !req
22. But if I don't bother him,
he'll never play with me.Copy !req
23. I never said I'd play!Copy !req
24. Okay, I'll play
with her.Copy !req
25. I'll stop
bothering him.Copy !req
26. Keep chopping!Copy !req
27. I'm chopping,
I'm chopping!Copy !req
28. You've probably heard
the expressionCopy !req
29. "Don't cry over spilled milk"Copy !req
30. but did you ever imagine
it would leadCopy !req
31. to Arthur and D.W.
having to live aloneCopy !req
32. and raise themselves
and go to an orphanage?Copy !req
33. My name is Nadine.Copy !req
34. I'm D.W.'s imaginary friendCopy !req
35. and I'll be your host for, "Mom
and Dad have a Great Big Fight."Copy !req
36. Ah, you're back.Copy !req
37. Bet you've been waiting
to see this thing smash.Copy !req
38. Okay.Copy !req
39. Don't let the...Copy !req
40. Grab the...Copy !req
41. Milk thing...
Get...Copy !req
42. But let's back things up
just a little...Copy !req
43. And see what my friend D.W.
was doing as that thing smashed.Copy !req
44. Okay, I'll play with her.Copy !req
45. I'll stop
bothering him.Copy !req
46. You have to wait
till I'm doneCopy !req
47. with my homework,
you know.Copy !req
48. I know it.Copy !req
49. Why do
they have to beCopy !req
50. so fair all the time?Copy !req
51. "Let Arthur finish
his homework."Copy !req
52. "Stop bothering
Arthur."Copy !req
53. I wish my parents
were different.Copy !req
54. Duh...Copy !req
55. Mom, Arthur
said he'd playCopy !req
56. "Confuse the Goose"
with me, but he won't!Copy !req
57. I said maybe!Copy !req
58. Oh, my
poor D.W.!Copy !req
59. Arthur, play with
your perfect, lovely,
adorable sister.Copy !req
60. But I have to do homework!Copy !req
61. What's more
important—Copy !req
62. homework or the
happiness of a
little girl?Copy !req
63. Is that a trick question?Copy !req
64. Okay, I'll play
with her.Copy !req
65. Stop that!Copy !req
66. What'd I do?Copy !req
67. You were looking at D.W.
without smiling.Copy !req
68. Boy, wouldn't it
be perfect?Copy !req
69. If only I could
change them.Copy !req
70. I didn't do it!Copy !req
71. How could you
do that?Copy !req
72. They'll be here
any minute!Copy !req
73. Me?
You put it there!Copy !req
74. I don't have time
to argue about this.Copy !req
75. Who's arguing?Copy !req
76. I have to start
the batterCopy !req
77. all over again!Copy !req
78. Arthur!Copy !req
79. Don't come in here.Copy !req
80. Mom!
No! Don't yell!
Stop!Copy !req
81. You look scared.Copy !req
82. If you saw something
scary, tell Dad.Copy !req
83. I can't, Arthur.Copy !req
84. It's Mom and Dad
who are scary!Copy !req
85. They were yelling.Copy !req
86. What?
I don't believe you.Copy !req
87. I heard it.Copy !req
88. D.W.:
Nadine and I were going to play
"Confuse the Goose"...Copy !req
89. Then why do you need me
to play?Copy !req
90. D.W.:
Because Nadine and I always
tie at everything!Copy !req
91. Stop interrupting—
so there we wereCopy !req
92. and then there was
this kersmash!Copy !req
93. That's when
I ran up here and...Copy !req
94. Wait a minute.Copy !req
95. What did they say?Copy !req
96. I didn't hear it exactly.Copy !req
97. It's not important anyway.Copy !req
98. What's important is
they hate each other.Copy !req
99. You're playing a trickCopy !req
100. and it won't work.Copy !req
101. You do look scared.Copy !req
102. I'm going to check this out.Copy !req
103. Right now.Copy !req
104. Here I go.Copy !req
105. Last chance to
give up this joke.Copy !req
106. I don't hear... Ah!Copy !req
107. Don't do that.Copy !req
108. I don't hear
anything.Copy !req
109. That's the end of
the worry, right?Copy !req
110. Well...Copy !req
111. Oh, honey,
just leave it.Copy !req
112. I'll get it, please.Copy !req
113. No, I've got it,
I've got it.Copy !req
114. It's my fault.Copy !req
115. Let me do it.Copy !req
116. I told you.Copy !req
117. This is all your fault.Copy !req
118. How can it be
my fault— I
was up here!Copy !req
119. If you played with me,
they wouldn't be mad.Copy !req
120. It's your fault!Copy !req
121. Why?Copy !req
122. Because you're
such a big pain.Copy !req
123. You never practice
the piano!Copy !req
124. You slide your peas
under the plate!Copy !req
125. You... you wear glasses!Copy !req
126. Mom and Dad
are not fightingCopy !req
127. because I wear glasses.Copy !req
128. Maybe they are!
Are you them?Copy !req
129. Are you
in their brains?Copy !req
130. I don't think so, Arthur Read!Copy !req
131. What if they never speak
to each other again?Copy !req
132. Tell your father,
"Merry Christmas."Copy !req
133. Mother says "Merry
Christmas," Father.Copy !req
134. Tell your mother,
"And a Happy New Year."Copy !req
135. Every conversation will take
twice as long.Copy !req
136. We'll only get half as
much done in our lives.Copy !req
137. D.W., you're
being silly.Copy !req
138. Two people wouldn't
live togetherCopy !req
139. and never talk
to each other.Copy !req
140. You're right!Copy !req
141. One of them is going
to move away!Copy !req
142. Good morning, Mommy!Copy !req
143. Good morning!Copy !req
144. It's so good to see
your beautiful faces!Copy !req
145. Um, what's
for breakfast?Copy !req
146. I don't know— your father
always made breakfast.Copy !req
147. So there's no breakfast?Copy !req
148. No.Copy !req
149. Dad leaving is totally
unacceptable.Copy !req
150. Mmm! Thank you, Dad!Copy !req
151. Dig in!Copy !req
152. You know what I always say:
Dig in!Copy !req
153. Dad, I need a ride to the park
later for the big jamboree.Copy !req
154. Sorry, your mother took
the car when she left.Copy !req
155. Oh...
Oh...Copy !req
156. What if neither
one of themCopy !req
157. wants to take all of us?Copy !req
158. After all,
you're a lot of trouble.Copy !req
159. Oh, I can't believe it!Copy !req
160. D.W., did you break
my truck? D.W.!Copy !req
161. Arthur, did you forgetCopy !req
162. that D.W. doesn't live
here anymore?Copy !req
163. She left with your dad.Copy !req
164. Oh, yeah,
I forgot.Copy !req
165. That's why it's
so peaceful.Copy !req
166. I'm going to take
Pal for a walk.Copy !req
167. Arthur, Pal doesn't live here
anymore either.Copy !req
168. I got you and Kate.Copy !req
169. Dad got D.W.
and Pal.Copy !req
170. What if neither one
of them wants us?Copy !req
171. What if we have
no parents anymore?Copy !req
172. We'll be organs!Copy !req
173. You mean "orphans"Copy !req
174. like in Oliver Twist.Copy !req
175. Please, sir, may I
'ave some 'ore?Copy !req
176. What?
You want some 'ore?Copy !req
177. There— that's
some oar, huh?Copy !req
178. Get it?
Some oar.Copy !req
179. Oh, I'm hysterical.Copy !req
180. I should get paid
by the laugh.Copy !req
181. We have to avoidCopy !req
182. going to an orphanage
at all costsCopy !req
183. especially one set
in the 1800s.Copy !req
184. All we have is
each other.Copy !req
185. If you take
care of meCopy !req
186. I'll take care of you.Copy !req
187. We don't need
anyone else.Copy !req
188. Blech!Copy !req
189. We can't cook.Copy !req
190. ( To tune of
Brahms' "Lullaby" ):
♪ Go to sleep, go to sleepCopy !req
191. Arthur, this isn't working.Copy !req
192. I miss Mommy and Daddy.Copy !req
193. I know,
I miss them, too.Copy !req
194. I never knew
you could feel
this lonelyCopy !req
195. even when
you're not alone.Copy !req
196. We can't let that happen!Copy !req
197. It's all my fault!Copy !req
198. I wished they
were different
and now they are!Copy !req
199. Let's tell them that we don't
want them to hate each other.Copy !req
200. We're a family.Copy !req
201. Our opinions count
and stuff.Copy !req
202. I don't hear
anything.Copy !req
203. You stay, I'll go.Copy !req
204. No, I'll go.Copy !req
205. I'm the one
who should go.Copy !req
206. I'm going
and that's final.Copy !req
207. Daddy's leaving.Copy !req
208. You're...
choking... me.Copy !req
209. D.W.:
Daddy!Copy !req
210. Daddy, don't go!
Please!Copy !req
211. But I have to go.Copy !req
212. No, you don't!Copy !req
213. We don't want
you to go!Copy !req
214. If I don't,
we won't have any milk.Copy !req
215. But we... huh?Copy !req
216. You're going
to the store?Copy !req
217. Yes.Copy !req
218. Where did you
think I was going?Copy !req
219. Don't leave us!Copy !req
220. You and Mommy don't
really hate each other!Copy !req
221. Hold on— what
makes you think
we hate each other?Copy !req
222. We don't want
to be organs
like Oliver Twits!Copy !req
223. Did you say you were
going to the store?Copy !req
224. She heard you
fightingCopy !req
225. and thought you
hated each other.Copy !req
226. Kids are so funny, huh?Copy !req
227. D.W., we don't
hate each other.Copy !req
228. Sometimes adults lose
their tempers and argue.Copy !req
229. Just like kids disagree
sometimes or get mad.Copy !req
230. You and Arthur fightCopy !req
231. but it doesn't
stop youCopy !req
232. from loving
each other.Copy !req
233. You're going
to the storeCopy !req
234. to buy milk?Copy !req
235. Yeah, and I have
to hurry backCopy !req
236. because my friends
are coming over.Copy !req
237. Guess I solved that one.Copy !req
238. Of course, the moral
of our story is clear—Copy !req
239. don't put your milk
close to the edgeCopy !req
240. because somebody's
going to knock it over.Copy !req
241. Thank you and good-bye for now.Copy !req
242. And now...Copy !req
243. Here in my class
we made angry and happy masks.Copy !req
244. This is my happy face...Copy !req
245. and this is my mad face.Copy !req
246. We made angry faces
and happy faces.Copy !req
247. This is my mad face.Copy !req
248. This is my mad face.Copy !req
249. And sometimes people
get angry and happy.Copy !req
250. This is my happy face.Copy !req
251. This is my happy face.Copy !req
252. Angry is when you get really
upset about something.Copy !req
253. You get so annoyedCopy !req
254. when you get angry
and frustrated.Copy !req
255. This is my mad face.Copy !req
256. I get angry when my dad takes
me to the tennis club.Copy !req
257. And this is my happy face.Copy !req
258. People who love each other
get mad at each other, tooCopy !req
259. But they still love each other.Copy !req
260. This is my mad face.Copy !req
261. My sisters sometimes make me madCopy !req
262. but I still love them.Copy !req
263. This is my happy face.Copy !req
264. This is my mad face.Copy !req
265. This is my best friend.Copy !req
266. Her name is LenaCopy !req
267. And I always
get mad at herCopy !req
268. and that is very bad.Copy !req
269. And this is my happy face.Copy !req
270. This is what we
look likeCopy !req
271. when we're angry.Copy !req
272. But I still like herCopy !req
273. And I play with her
all the time.Copy !req
274. Not all the time.Copy !req
275. Most of the time.Copy !req
276. And this is what
we look likeCopy !req
277. when we're happy.Copy !req
278. When I'm angry, I go to sleep,
and the next morningCopy !req
279. since there's a clear new day,
then I feel much betterCopy !req
280. not angry anymore.Copy !req
281. Mad.Copy !req
282. Happy.Copy !req
283. And now...Copy !req
284. It's not hard to make
your own calendar.Copy !req
285. You can draw your favorite
cool things for every month.Copy !req
286. This is a big year,
so I drew big stuff.Copy !req
287. January— Bionic Bunny
moves a huge iceberg.Copy !req
288. February— Bionic Bunny
versus a giant ValentineCopy !req
289. that wrecks buildings and makes
everybody fall in love.Copy !req
290. E-vil.Copy !req
291. March— Bionic Bunny brings
a mammoth birthday cakeCopy !req
292. because D.W.'s birthday
is on March first.Copy !req
293. D.W. sure loves her birthday.Copy !req
294. Last year, she never stopped
reminding us it was coming.Copy !req
295. Speaking of birthdays...Copy !req
296. who's speaking
of birthdays?Copy !req
297. No one, but now
that you mention itCopy !req
298. mine is coming up.Copy !req
299. Don't forget my
birthday's coming!Copy !req
300. This year will probably
be worse.Copy !req
301. Hey, today is D.W.'s birthday,
but she hasn't said a word.Copy !req
302. Impossible.Copy !req
303. D.W., did you forget
that your birthday's today?Copy !req
304. No— how could I forget
about my own birthday?Copy !req
305. Now leave me alone!Copy !req
306. How could D.W. not be excited
about her birthday?Copy !req
307. Arthur!Copy !req
308. Shh.Copy !req
309. I said leave me alone, please.Copy !req
310. First tell me
why you're not excitedCopy !req
311. about your birthday.Copy !req
312. You really want to know?Copy !req
313. Do you think you
really want to know?Copy !req
314. Um... Yeah.Copy !req
315. Oh, okay, just checking.Copy !req
316. It all started
when I told daddyCopy !req
317. what kind of birthday cake
I wanted.Copy !req
318. For my birthday,
which is coming soonCopy !req
319. I want
a normal cake.Copy !req
320. You sure?Copy !req
321. How about a big, purple...Copy !req
322. Normal— white frosting on top,
white cake inside.Copy !req
323. No crunchy stuff, no gushy
red layers, no lambCopy !req
324. no surprises.Copy !req
325. You sure you don't want to try
my aloha coconut blizzard cakeCopy !req
326. with peach and banana
pectin filling?Copy !req
327. Daddy!Copy !req
328. I'm joking.Copy !req
329. Normal.Copy !req
330. Got it.Copy !req
331. D.W.:
I can't wait for my birthday.Copy !req
332. My daddy is making
me a normal cake with...Copy !req
333. You know, turning
five is a very
big step.Copy !req
334. Yeah?
With white icing
on top and...Copy !req
335. D.W., I am five
years old already.Copy !req
336. Listen to me.Copy !req
337. When you're five,
you cannot doCopy !req
338. the same things
you didCopy !req
339. when you were
only four.Copy !req
340. What do you mean?Copy !req
341. I mean, you have
to leaveCopy !req
342. childish things
behind.Copy !req
343. You will be going
to real school—Copy !req
344. kindergarten.Copy !req
345. Kindergarten.Copy !req
346. You will never be
a little kid ever again.Copy !req
347. Ever again... again...Copy !req
348. And now, here it is,
my birthday.Copy !req
349. They're going to give me
normal cakeCopy !req
350. and then, whammo, I'm five.Copy !req
351. So?Copy !req
352. So I don't know if I'm ready.Copy !req
353. I'll never be
four again, you know.Copy !req
354. Did I do
everything I could?Copy !req
355. Did I waste
my fours?Copy !req
356. Have I fribbled away
my childhood?Copy !req
357. No.Copy !req
358. No— that's it?Copy !req
359. A simple three-letter
word like "no"Copy !req
360. doesn't exactly
make me feel better,
Arthur.Copy !req
361. Oh, come on.Copy !req
362. You did plenty
of great stuff, D.W.Copy !req
363. Yeah?
Like what?Copy !req
364. Like you fooled
the tooth fairy
and got money.Copy !req
365. D.W.:
Look— look what the
tooth fairy left me!Copy !req
366. I tricked the tooth fairy.Copy !req
367. I tricked the tooth fairy.Copy !req
368. And besides that, you taught us
all about fire drills.Copy !req
369. No talking!
Remain calm!Copy !req
370. Faster, people,
there's a fire in here!Copy !req
371. What's it say?Copy !req
372. Three minutes,
nine seconds.Copy !req
373. Not bad, but
we must get itCopy !req
374. down to 58 seconds.Copy !req
375. And you got to go to
the hospital and get stitches.Copy !req
376. You were
very brave, D.W.Copy !req
377. It doesn't
look so bad.Copy !req
378. Well, it feels bad.Copy !req
379. These are the golden memories
of my childhood—Copy !req
380. A buck, a fire drill
and a fat lip?Copy !req
381. Okay, I'm sure
there was more.Copy !req
382. Um... Yeah, remember
when you learned to do flipsCopy !req
383. on the balance beam?Copy !req
384. D.W.:
Not exactly, Arthur.Copy !req
385. She's too scared
to do it.Copy !req
386. Whoa!Copy !req
387. She's going to chicken out.Copy !req
388. Whoa!Copy !req
389. Am not.Copy !req
390. D.W.:
I learned I was
too young to do flips.Copy !req
391. Oh, well, I know—
you made a deer friendCopy !req
392. when we went camping.Copy !req
393. Hi!Copy !req
394. D.W.:
But I couldn't bring him home.Copy !req
395. No, but Mr. Rogers
came to our home.Copy !req
396. D.W.:
That song put me to sleep.Copy !req
397. It was supposed to.Copy !req
398. It's a lullaby.Copy !req
399. D.W.:
But I was asleep,
so it's not one of my memories.Copy !req
400. You weren't asleepCopy !req
401. when you met the president
in the White House.Copy !req
402. Beautiful horse,
huh?Copy !req
403. Yeah— do you work here?Copy !req
404. I've worked here
for a couple of years now.Copy !req
405. Then maybe you can help me.Copy !req
406. My family got lost.Copy !req
407. They're with another tour guide.Copy !req
408. Come on, follow me.Copy !req
409. I can get you back
where you came from.Copy !req
410. Are there
more paintings
with horses?Copy !req
411. Lots— I'll
point them out.Copy !req
412. D.W.:
So I met some people.Copy !req
413. How hard is that?Copy !req
414. I didn't do anything.Copy !req
415. Sure you did.Copy !req
416. You helped build a chicken coop
at Grandpa Dave's house.Copy !req
417. And went to "Crazy Bus Live."Copy !req
418. And caught chicken pox from me.Copy !req
419. D.W.:
That wasn't fun.Copy !req
420. But I bet you'll
never forget it.Copy !req
421. And you rescued cousin Lucy's
ring to save her wedding.Copy !req
422. Thank you, D.W.Copy !req
423. We couldn't have done
it without you.Copy !req
424. And you took good care of Kate
when she was born.Copy !req
425. Everyone stand back.Copy !req
426. I know what she wants.Copy !req
427. D.W.:
I just thought
of something else I did.Copy !req
428. I saved a snowball in the
freezer and somebody took it.Copy !req
429. It wasn't me.Copy !req
430. Can't you forget
that and lookCopy !req
431. at all the cool
stuff you did?Copy !req
432. It was a great year.Copy !req
433. except for the snowball.Copy !req
434. What's this for?Copy !req
435. Because you made me remember
how great I am.Copy !req
436. You're my
little sister.Copy !req
437. I want you to have
a happy birthday.Copy !req

for his nose.Copy !req
515. And Pal's a pretty happy dog,
so we'll make him smiling.Copy !req
516. And we'll add his ears.Copy !req

and he's off for an adventure.Copy !req
