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 ever wonder
what would happenCopy !req
9. if all the great scientists
and explorers had to doCopy !req
10. everything their parents
told them?Copy !req
11. Like Galileo...Copy !req
12. But, Father, it's only 8:00!Copy !req
13. Can't I discover one more
moon of Jupiter, please?Copy !req
14. It's always "one
more moon of Jupiter"Copy !req
15. and before you know it,
it's the whole Milky Way.Copy !req
16. You've got
the entire RenaissanceCopy !req
17. to discover moons, Gali.Copy !req
18. It's past your bedtime.Copy !req
19. Into your
jammies, please.Copy !req
20. Or what about Sir Isaac Newton?Copy !req
21. Stop moping around.Copy !req
22. Do you expect ideas
to fall from the sky?Copy !req
23. If everyone did
everything their parents saidCopy !req
24. that might stop
the course of discovery!Copy !req
25. Nice try, Arthur,
but I doubtCopy !req
26. Sir Isaac Newton made
bacon-flavored shakesCopy !req
27. with his father's
cooking equipment.Copy !req
28. Now, let's get
this cleaned up!Copy !req
29. Wait!Copy !req
30. Watch this!Copy !req
31. My turn!Copy !req
32. Wow!Copy !req
33. Good one,
Francine.Copy !req
34. That's nothing.Copy !req
35. Watch this!Copy !req
36. Oops.Copy !req
37. Binky, you just need
a smaller rock—Copy !req
38. one with a flat surface that
will deflect the water downwardCopy !req
39. thus gaining a net upward force.Copy !req
40. Thanks, Buster!Copy !req
41. Watch this!Copy !req
42. What?Copy !req
43. I just found that!Copy !req
44. What is it?Copy !req
45. A chipped rock?Copy !req
46. It's an arrowhead!Copy !req
47. Wow.Copy !req
48. Cool!Copy !req
49. Really?Copy !req
50. Where'd you get it?Copy !req
51. I was digging
in my mom's garden.Copy !req
52. It was buried there.Copy !req
53. I wonder who buried it.Copy !req
54. No one— prehistoric tribes
lived all over this area.Copy !req
55. Over time, rain and floods
washed dirt over their tools.Copy !req
56. You mean there could be stuff
buried in our own yards?Copy !req
57. Certainly— all you
have to do is dig.Copy !req
58. Cool!
A helmet!Copy !req
59. Wow!Copy !req
60. I'm not worried
about ancient ruins.Copy !req
61. It's the modern ones
I don't want to see.Copy !req
62. But everybody else gets
to dig in their yards.Copy !req
63. We're meeting laterCopy !req
64. to show
what we found.Copy !req
65. I'll be careful.Copy !req
66. Really.Copy !req
67. Please!Copy !req
68. All right.Copy !req
69. I have to go do
some errands now.Copy !req
70. You can dig
behind the garageCopy !req
71. but no place else.Copy !req
72. I don't want an excavation
site for a yard.Copy !req
73. All right!Copy !req
74. Thanks, Mom!Copy !req
75. What are you
burying, Arthur?Copy !req
76. Your report card?Copy !req
77. I'm digging for treasure.Copy !req
78. What kind of treasure— pennies?Copy !req
79. Arrowheads and
civilizations and stuff.Copy !req
80. Hey, look at that!Copy !req
81. It's alive!Copy !req
82. Watch it!Copy !req
83. Careful, D.W.!Copy !req
84. It's a root.Copy !req
85. Boy, you fell for that.Copy !req
86. Even the Tibbles are too old for
that gag, and they're only four.Copy !req
87. I knew you were faking.Copy !req
88. Sure.Copy !req
89. Hey, want to trade
some of your tiny dimesCopy !req
90. for a big, shiny penny?Copy !req
91. Wait till
everyone hearsCopy !req
92. how you thought
that root was a snake.Copy !req
93. What's this?Copy !req
94. "Digestive biscuits."Copy !req
95. What's "digestive"?Copy !req
96. Like Reader's Digest, I guess.Copy !req
97. What a dumb flavor.Copy !req
98. Ahh... there's
got to beCopy !req
99. something decent
down there.Copy !req
100. I found something!Copy !req
101. Wow!
It might belong
to a saber-toothed tigerCopy !req
102. Or a T. Rex, or...Copy !req
103. Pal.Copy !req
104. This bone belongs
to Pal, Arthur.Copy !req
105. Huh?Copy !req
106. I bet everyone else has found
lots of stuff by now.Copy !req
107. Too small.Copy !req
108. Duh!Copy !req
109. Drat!Copy !req
110. There's nothing here.Copy !req
111. Hey!Copy !req
112. Arthur Read...Copy !req
113. You know you're
not supposed to digCopy !req
114. in the yard.Copy !req
115. I'm not going to dig.Copy !req
116. I'm going to watch Pal.Copy !req
117. It's not very big.Copy !req
118. And not very neat, either.Copy !req
119. Maybe I could just fix it.Copy !req
120. You're not fixing it.Copy !req
121. You're making it bigger!Copy !req
122. Mom's going to plotz!Copy !req
123. Come on, D.W., I'm
just digging a littleCopy !req
124. until I find the stuff
that's buried back here.Copy !req
125. Like what stuff?Copy !req
126. Like...Copy !req
127. I don't know...Copy !req
128. Like...Copy !req
129. Wow!Copy !req
130. Cool!Copy !req
131. Looks like nobody's been
down here for a while, Pal.Copy !req
132. It's huge!Copy !req
133. Well, this is it.Copy !req
134. It might be some ancient temple,
or it might be a trap.Copy !req
135. Only one way to find out.Copy !req
136. Oh, my gosh!Copy !req
137. Arthur, what were you
doing in my closet?Copy !req
138. You want
half a sandwich?Copy !req
139. You really think
there's secret passages?Copy !req
140. There's probably
old tunnelsCopy !req
141. that go everywhere.Copy !req
142. It's worth a try!Copy !req
143. And it's not
just for me...Copy !req
144. Oh, no!Copy !req
145. What is it,
honey?Copy !req
146. I forgot
to get charcoalCopy !req
147. and the stores are closed.Copy !req
148. I guess we'll just
have to cancel
the barbecue.Copy !req
149. No, we don't!Copy !req
150. I'll be right back!Copy !req
151. With tax, that's...
let's see...Copy !req
152. There.Copy !req
153. Honey, I think
these areCopy !req
154. the best hot dogs
you've ever cooked.Copy !req
155. Thanks to Arthur and
his secret passage!Copy !req
156. It's a good thingCopy !req
157. you didn't
listen to me.Copy !req
158. "It's a good thing you
didn't listen to me"?Copy !req
159. You really believe
Mom's going to say that?Copy !req
160. Well... she might!Copy !req
161. And anyway,
we'll never findCopy !req
162. a secret passageCopy !req
163. if we don't even
look for it.Copy !req
164. But Mom said...Copy !req
165. Okay, fine,
you're right.Copy !req
166. If you want to be
a barbecue wreckerCopy !req
167. we'll just play
in the dirt
behind the garage.Copy !req
168. Come on, let's go find
some more tin cans.Copy !req
169. That's much better
than a secret passageway.Copy !req
170. Well, maybe you could
dig just a little.Copy !req
171. Nothing!Copy !req
172. We must haveCopy !req
173. the most boring backyard
in history.Copy !req
174. Maybe we're
just lookingCopy !req
175. in the wrong places.Copy !req
176. But I looked every...
wait a second!Copy !req
177. Who says we have
to stay in the backyard?Copy !req
178. No, Arthur,
that's not...Copy !req
179. There he is!Copy !req
180. Hi, Arthur.Copy !req
181. We were waiting
back at the pond.Copy !req
182. You must have found
something big.Copy !req
183. Well, not yet.Copy !req
184. Really?
We all found great stuff!Copy !req
185. What?
A metal detector?Copy !req
186. No, these.Copy !req
187. Pennies?Copy !req
188. They're not in mint conditionCopy !req
189. but over 30 years old.Copy !req
190. Gee, they had coins way back
then?Copy !req
191. Oh, yes— the first
coins were madeCopy !req
192. thousands of years ago.Copy !req
193. I found something much cooler.Copy !req
194. I think it looks like an iguana.Copy !req
195. I'm calling it inguan.Copy !req
196. You gave a name
to a root?Copy !req
197. I name all my roots.Copy !req
198. Look what I found.Copy !req
199. It's been lost
for years.Copy !req
200. It's still
in good shape.Copy !req
201. Not as good
as this.Copy !req
202. It has a price tag.Copy !req
203. You didn't find that
in your backyard.Copy !req
204. I didn't say I did.Copy !req
205. I bought it, but jewels
do come out of the ground.Copy !req
206. What did you
find, Arthur?Copy !req
207. Roots and rocks,
mostly.Copy !req
208. I didn't name them, though.Copy !req
209. And this!Copy !req
210. Cool!Copy !req
211. You think that's cool?Copy !req
212. It's old,
that's for sure.Copy !req
213. I estimate that it's
over 40 years old.Copy !req
214. That's how old my mom is!Copy !req
215. That's ancient!Copy !req
216. Wow! And look at this!Copy !req
217. Did I find something else cool?Copy !req
218. You're lucky.Copy !req
219. Your mom let
you dig up
the whole yard.Copy !req
220. Oh, no!
Did I do all that?Copy !req
221. Yes—
I told you.Copy !req
222. What am I going to do?Copy !req
223. You're going to beCopy !req
224. in big trouble.Copy !req
225. Maybe we can get everything
back the way it was.Copy !req
226. We did it!Copy !req
227. Arthur!
What happened?Copy !req
228. There were these giant
earthworms, Mrs. Read.Copy !req
229. They went crazy, but
we tried to stop them.Copy !req
230. Actually, it
was chipmunks.Copy !req
231. They burrowed...Copy !req
232. Chipmunks don't burrow.Copy !req
233. Moles, however...Copy !req
234. Thanks, guysCopy !req
235. But... it was my fault.Copy !req
236. I guess I got
carried away.Copy !req
237. I'm sorry, Mom.Copy !req
238. After I specifically
told you not to.Copy !req
239. I'm disappointed in you,
Arthur... very disappointed.Copy !req
240. You want to go
to the pond
after school?Copy !req
241. Sorry, I'm doing
something cooler.Copy !req
242. Look what I found yesterday.Copy !req
243. A harmonica!
Where did
you find it?Copy !req
244. In the garage.Copy !req
245. There's cool
things in there.Copy !req
246. Sometimes what a treasure is
depends on how you look at it.Copy !req
247. You're grounded
and have to clean
the garage all week.Copy !req
248. Pretty much, yeah.Copy !req
249. That's okay,
you can come next week.Copy !req
250. Better make it
the week after next.Copy !req
251. And now...Copy !req
252. We dig a lot of holes.Copy !req
253. Arthur digs holes
to find treasure.Copy !req
254. We dig holes
to plant our plants...Copy !req
255. Because it's a garden club.Copy !req
256. The garden club's purpose isCopy !req
257. to make our school
look more colorful.Copy !req
258. Kids get to bring inCopy !req
259. as many plants as they want.Copy !req
260. We all work together
to plant them.Copy !req
261. Today we're planting
red geraniums.Copy !req
262. We're going to make it
beautiful.Copy !req
263. You dig a hole...Copy !req
264. try to make the hole
nice and bigCopy !req
265. and wide enough
for the pot to fit in.Copy !req
266. Hold on—
that's good.Copy !req
267. And then we put the plant in it.Copy !req
268. There you go.Copy !req
269. Good.Copy !req
270. We patted the soil down.Copy !req
271. Pat it down
really hard.Copy !req
272. Those are the steps.Copy !req
273. Good job, Jamal.Copy !req
274. Thank you.Copy !req
275. Wow!Copy !req
276. It's a horseshoe.Copy !req
277. You guys!Copy !req
278. Look what we found—
a horseshoe.Copy !req
279. Was it buried?Copy !req
280. Yeah, we were
just diggingCopy !req
281. and all of a sudden
I just sawCopy !req
282. this old thing right in there.Copy !req
283. And now...Copy !req
284. Whoa!Copy !req
285. This fair is so cool!Copy !req
286. It's just like being
in the Middle Ages.Copy !req
287. Stick with your partnerCopy !req
288. and take notes on
the historical details.Copy !req
289. They'll be useful
when we compete.Copy !req
290. Get your haggis here!Copy !req
291. Fresh haggis, two for a dollar!Copy !req
292. Haggis.Copy !req
293. Two for...Copy !req
294. A dollar.Copy !req
295. What's haggis?Copy !req
296. There it is—Copy !req
297. The golden griffin.Copy !req
298. The award given
to the classCopy !req
299. which exhibits the
greatest knowledgeCopy !req
300. of medieval history.Copy !req
301. Boy, Mr. Ratburn
sure wants to winCopy !req
302. that golden griffin.Copy !req
303. We came so close
to winning last year.Copy !req
304. If we all try our hardestCopy !req
305. I'm sure this is the year
we finally win.Copy !req
306. I bet we can winCopy !req
307. because what class on earth
works as hard as we do?Copy !req
308. Glenbrook, Glenbrook,
that's our school!Copy !req
309. Glenbrook, Glenbrook,
we will rule!Copy !req
310. Go... Glenbrook!Copy !req
311. It can't be.Copy !req
312. Ah, Ratburn!Copy !req
313. We meet again.Copy !req
314. Hey!Copy !req
315. Mr. Pryce-Jones,
my old teacher.Copy !req
316. I didn't know
you were stillCopy !req
317. at the Glenbrook
Academy.Copy !req
318. They won't
let me quit.Copy !req
319. After all,
I am irreplaceable.Copy !req
320. Huh?Copy !req
321. Oh, no!Copy !req
322. Pryce-Jones:
Bath...Copy !req
323. Siena, Avignon—Copy !req
324. We've won all the
medieval fairs in Europe.Copy !req
325. This little one
should be a snap.Copy !req
326. Excuse me, sirCopy !req
327. but it's 10:14.Copy !req
328. Well, time to prepare.Copy !req
329. See you at Merlin's labyrinth.Copy !req
330. Don't get lost along the way.Copy !req
331. Have we ever played soccerCopy !req
332. against those guys?Copy !req
333. They seem kind of familiar.Copy !req
334. No way.Copy !req
335. I'd remember a weird-looking
bunch like that.Copy !req
336. The first to escape
a point shall winCopy !req
337. the other one
shall perish within.Copy !req
338. Remember, Chester,
navigate by the sunCopy !req
339. and the tops
of the trees.Copy !req
340. Arthur, use
your head.Copy !req
341. On your mark, get set...Copy !req
342. Hie thee hence!Copy !req
343. That means
"go," kid.Copy !req
344. Oh, no, dead end!Copy !req
345. Hmm, my shadow!Copy !req
346. Guess I really used my head.Copy !req
347. He or she who pullsCopy !req
348. the sword
from the stoneCopy !req
349. truly is our
king or queen.Copy !req
350. 'Tis an equal-
opportunity sword.Copy !req
351. Keep the line moving.Copy !req
352. All your might
won't set things right.Copy !req
353. 'Tis a gentle hand
'twill rule the land.Copy !req
354. Arthur!Copy !req
355. Everyone's looking for you.Copy !req
356. We lost
at Merlin's maze.Copy !req
357. Time for the next
competition.Copy !req
358. Let's see you beat that.Copy !req
359. Quick,
lads and lasses.Copy !req
360. V = u + at.Copy !req
361. Now!Copy !req
362. I see they don't
know Newton's formulaCopy !req
363. for constant
acceleration yet.Copy !req
364. The clocks are
ticking, Ratburn.Copy !req
365. We're getting pulverized.Copy !req
366. We might as well
just give themCopy !req
367. the golden griffin.Copy !req
368. We're playing
against robots.Copy !req
369. I feel sorry for them
having that teacher.Copy !req
370. Actually, BusterCopy !req
371. Mr. Pryce-Jones was the
best teacher I ever had.Copy !req
372. Some people say I'm tough.Copy !req
373. No!Copy !req
374. Who says that?Copy !req
375. But Mr. Pryce-Jones made us
learn Latin in third grade.Copy !req
376. Sum, es, est,
sumus, estis, sunt.Copy !req
377. Again.Copy !req
378. Sum, es, estCopy !req
379. sumus, estis, sunt.Copy !req
380. And at recess, he pushed us
to the limits of our strength.Copy !req
381. I learned a lot.Copy !req
382. Makes me wonder sometimes if
I'm not a tough enough teacher.Copy !req
383. Mmm!Copy !req
384. This capon is good.Copy !req
385. It tastes just like chicken.Copy !req
386. Capon is chicken.Copy !req
387. I have some extra figgy puddingCopy !req
388. for the student who
can answer a question.Copy !req
389. Me!
Me, please!
Me!Copy !req
390. Commendable enthusiasm,
children.Copy !req
391. But let's give
Lakewood first try.Copy !req
392. Who was the 16th
King of England?Copy !req
393. What?Copy !req
394. You haven't taught them
the song, Ratburn?Copy !req
395. Winky, C-sharp, please.Copy !req
396. I know you don't agreeCopy !req
397. With all of
my teaching methods, Ratburn.Copy !req
398. But you have to admit,
they're more effective.Copy !req
399. The fact is,
you can't beat us.Copy !req
400. You may be right, sir.Copy !req
401. Did you hear that?Copy !req
402. If we keep losingCopy !req
403. Mr. Ratburn may start
teaching us like that guy.Copy !req
404. We have to win something.Copy !req
405. But how?Copy !req
406. We can't beat them.Copy !req
407. Mr. Pryce-Jones just said so,
and he's always right.Copy !req
408. There must be
something we're good at.Copy !req
409. Aha!Copy !req
410. A mincemeat pie-eating contest.Copy !req
411. This should be no sweat, Buster.Copy !req
412. Are you hungry, champ?Copy !req
413. Yep— good thing I didn't win
that figgy pudding.Copy !req
414. On ye mark, get set...Copy !req
415. Tuck in!Copy !req
416. Must...Copy !req
417. Eat...Copy !req
418. More.Copy !req
419. I don't
understand.Copy !req
420. How can you
keep eating?Copy !req
421. Where does it all go?Copy !req
422. Over the past few weeksCopy !req
423. I've expanded my stomach
with giant breakfasts.Copy !req
424. I now have an 18-liter capacity.Copy !req
425. Pass the ice cream, please?Copy !req
426. We're so lucky
they had tennisCopy !req
427. in the middle ages.Copy !req
428. Muffy's been playing
since she was five.Copy !req
429. Huh?Copy !req
430. This isn't
a regulation tennis ball.Copy !req
431. It weighs a ton.Copy !req
432. They played with it
in the 16th century.Copy !req
433. And this racket.Copy !req
434. That looks like
it could have been usedCopy !req
435. by Henry VIII.Copy !req
436. It was used by Henry V.Copy !req
437. He was my Great-great-
great-great-great-great-uncle.Copy !req
438. You can do it, Brain!Copy !req
439. I know you can!Copy !req
440. No one's smarter than you.Copy !req
441. The wheel of Fortuna
is constantly spinning.Copy !req
442. Someone is losing
and someone is winning.Copy !req
443. All right, for 20 pointsCopy !req
444. what do all the planets revolve
around?Copy !req
445. The sun.Copy !req
446. That was easy.Copy !req
447. Oh, I'm sorryCopy !req
448. But the correct answer
is "the earth."Copy !req
449. Those points go to I.Q.!Copy !req
450. Huh?
But that's wrong!Copy !req
451. You have to give the answersCopy !req
452. that were thought to be correct
during the middle ages.Copy !req
453. We've lost for sure now.Copy !req
454. Might as well get
something to eat.Copy !req
455. Eat?Copy !req
456. You just
had six pies.Copy !req
457. I feel empty inside.Copy !req
458. You go ahead.Copy !req
459. There's something I want to do.Copy !req
460. Why won't you move?Copy !req
461. After seeing your resultsCopy !req
462. I know the children
would benefitCopy !req
463. if you taught them.Copy !req
464. Well, it's
a generous offer.Copy !req
465. I'll definitely
consider it.Copy !req
466. Hey, Arthur, want to try
a unicorn dog?Copy !req
467. It tastes like capon.Copy !req
468. I think Principal Haney
wants to replace RatburnCopy !req
469. with Mr. Pryce-Jones.Copy !req
470. It's because we've lost
every single game.Copy !req
471. We've disgraced Mr. Ratburn.Copy !req
472. Mr. Pryce-Jones will
probably hold us back for yearsCopy !req
473. so he can teach us
over and over again.Copy !req
474. All that's leftCopy !req
475. is a castle-building
contest.Copy !req

maybe Mr. Haney will reconsider.Copy !req

piece of work.Copy !req

483. I think we won.Copy !req
484. But unfortunately,
the contest isCopy !req
485. for the most historically
accurate castle.Copy !req
486. Therefore, I must award
The prize to Glenbrook.Copy !req
487. Yay! We won!Copy !req
488. Veni, vidi, vici!
we will defeat ye!Copy !req
489. You see, these arrow slits
are much too wide.Copy !req
490. And in old English, "Lakewood"
would have an "e" on the end.Copy !req
491. I just want you all to know
I'm very proud.Copy !req
492. I'm going to have this castle
put on display at school.Copy !req
493. Mr. Ratburn
doesn't even knowCopy !req
494. he's being replaced.Copy !req
495. I feel so sorry for him.Copy !req
496. Him?
What about us?Copy !req
497. My brain hurtsCopy !req
498. just thinking
about Mr. Pryce-Jones.Copy !req

501. won't set things right!Copy !req
502. 'Tis a gentle handCopy !req

518. I couldn't have done it better.Copy !req
519. Principal HaneyCopy !req
520. is Mr. Pryce-Jones still
going to be our teacher?Copy !req
521. Of course not!Copy !req
522. The only ones
Mr. Pryce-Jones will
teach at LakewoodCopy !req
523. are my niece and nephew.Copy !req
524. He's going to be
their private tutor.Copy !req
525. I'm glad we don't haveCopy !req
526. a really tough teacher
like Mr. Pryce-Jones.Copy !req
527. I bet he gave homework tonight.Copy !req
528. Homework?Copy !req
