Are you guys ready for today's adventure? 15 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: Me too, Let's go. Isaac and his best pal, Peppy 16 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 1: the Puppy, were sailing on their sailboat when a sudden 17 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: windstorm began. Hold on tight bebby, Isaac called over the 18 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: roaring winds as he tried to gain control of the sails. 19 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: He yanked the ropes and chains as hard as he could, 20 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: but the wind was too strong. Isaac yelled as he 21 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: grabbed onto Peppy. Peppy grabbed onto Isaac too, yewling. 22 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 2: Oh. 23 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: They held onto each other tightly as the wind propelled 24 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: the boat towards shore. With a crash, the sailboat skidded 25 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: into the sand beach, and the two friends toppled off 26 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: the boat and onto the ground. Isaac sat up and 27 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: brushed the sand off his face. Peppy ran over to him, 28 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:09,239 Speaker 1: tail wagging. Rhyme, barked Peppy as he took a big 29 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: lick at Isaac's sandy face. Yuck, Peppy, you can't eat sand, 30 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: Isaac told his puppy, but Peppy ignored him and began 31 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: licking the sand beach instead. Oh no, oh, no, dogs 32 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: are not supposed to eat sand, right, what is he doing? 33 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: Wondered Isaac. He picked up the sand and gave it 34 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: a closer look. It was brown and tiny, like sand. 35 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: He felt it. It was gritty like sand. He sniffed it. 36 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: It was sweet, not like sand. He took a deep breath. 37 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: For science, I guess, he said, and then Isaac licked 38 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:09,399 Speaker 1: the sand. A sweet, calmly explosion hit his tongue as 39 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: the gritty sand melted in his mouth and turned out 40 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: not to be sand at all. It was brown sugar. 41 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: He looked around at the beach and saw it was 42 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: all the same shade of brown. The whole beach was 43 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: made of brown sugar. What I've never been to a 44 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: beach like that before, have have you? Pebby stop eating 45 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: the beach. We have to find out where we are, 46 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: iss it, called to his pup. Sadly, Peppy stopped licking 47 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: the sugary ground and moped back over to Isaac. He 48 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: looked around, but didn't see any signs or any anyone 49 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: who they could speak to. Those look like trees over there. 50 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: Come on, let's see what's behind them, decided Isaac. Peppy followed. 51 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: As they made their way over to the small forest. 52 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: Peppy sniffed the tree chunks suspiciously, and Isaac noticed there 53 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: was something off about them too. Tree trunks are normally brown, right, 54 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: he asked Peppy. PEPPI noddedoo and took a bite all 55 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: out of the trunk he was sniffing. Then he made 56 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: a face gross rocky Peppy growled through the mouthful of 57 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,919 Speaker 1: broccoli tree. Isaac didn't need to try this one for 58 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: himself this time. He believed Peppy. Something rustled in the 59 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: broccoli heads above them, jumping away above the ground. Look, Pebby, 60 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: there's someone there, Maybe they can help us. Isaac and 61 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: Peppy followed the movement up above and caught glimpses of 62 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: a squirrel. His tail looked like it was made of 63 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: You're not gonna believe this cotton candy. But they lost 64 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: track of it when they came to a river and 65 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: the squirrel jumped over it with ease. The river was 66 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 1: wide and flowing fast, but it too looked odd like 67 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: the water just looked weird. Isaac dipped his finger into 68 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: the thick golden liquid and tasted it. It's cheese, he cried. 69 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: He looked around him and spotted a tortilla chip flour 70 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 1: and plucked off a petalt. He dipped it in the 71 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: river and ate the crunchy, cheesy chip m nachos my favorite. Together, 72 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: Isaac and Peppy snacked their way through the land, looking 73 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: for someone to talk to. After the brown sugar beach 74 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: and cheesy river, they assumed every everything was edible and 75 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: taste tested it all. Muddy puddle, nope, pudding puddle, A 76 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: snowy field, Nope, that's frosting with sugar cookie flowers, perfect 77 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: for dipping. Isaac was sampling the foamy marsh water and 78 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: discovered it was really mashed potatoes, and when he saw 79 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: something moving through the hot dog cattail plants, Hey, wait, 80 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: come back, called out Isaac, and Peppy bounded after it. 81 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: He disappeared behind the reeds and cattails, and then Isaac 82 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 1: heard a loud Frightened Isaac waded through the mashed potatoes 83 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: and gravy after Peppy. On the other side of the marsh, 84 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: he spotted Peppy trying to calm down a sheep. It 85 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: was not a regular sheep with soft, fluffy wool covering 86 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 1: its body. This sheep what was covered in hundreds of 87 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: mini marshmallow A marshmallow sheep. What in the world is 88 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: this place? Sorry for scaring you, Isaac told the sheep. 89 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: Her sailboat crashed here and we just wanted to know 90 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: where we are and how to get home. 91 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 2: The sheep, this is the lad of Snacky, where everything 92 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 2: is made of food. 93 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: The marshmallow sheep looked at Peppy crunching a breadstick stick. 94 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: A bread stick stick. This is hilarious. 95 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 2: Let it saves You've already figured that out. As we're 96 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 2: getting cold, Let's take a look at your sailboat. Pretty handy. 97 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 2: I'm sure together we could come up with something to 98 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: fix it. 99 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: So they did. Isaac and Peppy gather the materials for 100 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: the marshmallow sheep and got to work. Cracks in the 101 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: boat were filled with caramel. Broken ropes were replaced by twizzlers. 102 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: They continued repairing until the sailboat it had a total 103 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: food makeover and it was able to float again. Thank 104 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: you so much, said Isaac. Oh, thank you, barked Peppy. 105 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: The sheep waved goodbye, and Isaac and Peppy climbed aboard 106 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: the boat. Once more acres away, called Isaac, and he 107 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: opened up the leafy lettuce sails and set course for 108 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: back home.
