It was a beautiful day as 14 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 1: sid was playing at a park near his house. He 15 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 1: loved to go on all the swings and slides and 16 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: climb on everything. It was a really cool park. Have 17 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: you ever been to a playground like that before that 18 00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: just has a ton of different things to play on? 19 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: Oh Yeah, we love finding really cool playgrounds that we 20 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: can play a great game of lava monster. That's what 21 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: our family likes to play, where I'm the lava monster 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: and they have to run away and not touch the 23 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: wood chips and then this slow lava monster tries to 24 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: get them. As Sid was running around at the park 25 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: with his friends, he was just having the best day ever, 26 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, he heard a sound. Oh, 27 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: I gotta, Hey, guys, I gotta, I have this message. 28 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: I gotta take this message. I'll be right over here. 29 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: Sid didn't want anyone else to hear this super secret 30 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: spy message from the spy team, so we walked over 31 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: to the edge of the park and click the button 32 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: to play. Sid. We need your help. There was an 33 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: apple orchard nearby that it's entire apples have been eaten 34 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: and stolen. We're not sure who have done such a 35 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: terrible thing, but we need you to investigate. We'll send 36 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: you the coordinates. Over and out sh SID couldn't believe it. 37 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: He loved apples, and who would do such a terrible 38 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: thing of stealing all the apples from the apple orchard? 39 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: Oh dear all right, hey, guys, I gotta I gotta 40 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: head back home. I'll see you later. Said wave goodbye 41 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: to his friends and him and his parents walked back home. 42 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: He knew that he had to grab his spy gear 43 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,679 Speaker 1: before entering onto this mission. He ran up to his room, 44 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: grabbed his gear, waved goodbye to his parents and blasted 45 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: out the window with his jet pack. He followed the 46 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: coordinates that HQ had sent him, and it led him 47 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 1: over towards some mountains nearby. But on that hillside was 48 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: a beautiful apple orchard, or at least there used to 49 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: be one, because as he arrived, he could tell that 50 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 1: something terrible had happened. All the trees and branches looked 51 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 1: like they had been almost pushed over. Broken branches lay 52 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: on the ground, but not an apple to be seen. 53 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: What do you call an apple orchard with no apples? 54 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: I guess just a forest. Well, as sid arrived, he 55 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: asked some questions to the owner of this apple orchard. Hello, Um, 56 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: my name is said, I'm with the spine team and uh, 57 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: I see that something must have happened terrible here. Can 58 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: you do you know what happened? It was absolutely terrible. 59 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: This giant, I don't know, monster came and eat ate 60 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: all of our apples. We don't know what to do. 61 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: If you're able to return our apples, that would be 62 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: very helpful. Oh my goodness, that's so terrible, said Sid. 63 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: Do you have any video or anything showing me what 64 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: I should be looking for? No, unfortunately, we don't have 65 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: any cameras here at the Apple Orchard. There's some big 66 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: footprints over here. Come take a look at these. Sid 67 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: followed the owner and couldn't believe it. The owner was 68 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: pointing to some ginormous holes in the ground. Those can't 69 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:20,119 Speaker 1: be footprints. Those things are huge, said said. Oh, I 70 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: I know, I know. That's how big that thing was. 71 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: It looked kind of like a lizard, but it was giant. 72 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: Could have been a dragon. Mm Hmm, an apple eating dragon. 73 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: Very strange, but all right. Well, thank you for explaining 74 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: all this. I hope to find your apples, sir, and 75 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: I'll let you know if I do. Oh, thank you. 76 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Good luck and be safe. The 77 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: owner waved goodbye as sid blasted off on his jet pack. 78 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 1: He was trying to follow the footprints and it looked 79 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 1: like they were headed in this direction. Pretty soon he 80 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: saw exactly where they went. Holy smokes, it looks like 81 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: those tracks go right into that huge cave on the 82 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: side of that mountain. Oh dear, I think that giant 83 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: thing must live in that cave. Let me fly closer 84 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: and see if I can check it out. He flew 85 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 1: his jet pack closer, hovering over the ground but right 86 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 1: in front of the entrance to the cave. He didn't 87 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: see anything. But then all of a sudden, Oh hey, 88 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: let me go, shouted, said you're coming with me. It 89 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: was the giant apples dailing Lizard Dragon thing. It had 90 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: grabbed onto sid with its claws and was pulling it 91 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: into the cave. Let me go, Hey, let go with 92 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,799 Speaker 1: me out, let me go. You're going in here. Stay here, 93 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: said the giant Apple Eating Lizard Dragon. He dropped sid 94 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: into a cage and closed the door. Where am I? 95 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: Sid coughed and looked around. He realized that he had 96 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 1: been captured by that great Iran. There were several others 97 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: inside of this cave. gave an eye on him. I'M 98 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: gonna look for more apples, and off that giant creature flew. 99 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: There were two other apple eating lizard dragons guarding the 100 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: cage that SID was in. Please let me go, I'm 101 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: just here to holy smokes, that is a lot of apples. 102 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: Sid could see right behind all those lizard dragons that 103 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 1: there was a giant pile of apples. You've got to 104 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: let me go. I'm not an apple. We're not letting 105 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: you go. You're gonna tell everybody where all of our 106 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: apples are. You're never getting out of here, said one 107 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: of those giant apple eating lizard dragons. Sid was stuck 108 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: and did not know what to do. Over the next 109 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: several hours, all said could do was sit there in 110 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: his dark cage in the cave. Every once in a 111 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: while one of those apple eating lizard dragons would toss 112 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: him an apple and you'd be able to eat a snack. 113 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: But finally, as the day rolled on, something happened that 114 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: gave sid a chance to escape. It's time to take 115 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: a nap. All of a sudden, those two apple eating 116 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: lizard dragons fell asleep. Sid remembered that lizards are dragons 117 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: are reptiles, and that means they're cold blooded. They need 118 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: sunlight to stay warm and alert and awake. Ever since 119 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: they were given the job to look after sid and 120 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: keep him in his cage. That means they've been inside 121 00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: of the cave and the darkness for several hours. Theirs 122 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: are starting to slow down, which means they're gonna take 123 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: a nap. This is my chance, said, said to himself. 124 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: I gotta reach for the keys. One of the apple 125 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: eating lizard dragons fell asleep right next to the door. 126 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: Sit Squeeze his arm out through the bars and reached 127 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: for the keys, and finally he got them. Okay, now 128 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: I just gotta unlocked the door really quietly S I 129 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: don't wake him up. He carefully put the keys in 130 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: and was careful to not jingle them because that might 131 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: wake him up. He unlocked the door and slowly opened it, 132 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: and off he ran. He grabbed his spy gear that 133 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: was laying on the ground at the entrance to the cave. 134 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: He threw on his jet pack and blasted off, which 135 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: woke up the apple eating lizard dragons. O that out. 136 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: What the Oh dear Larry's not gonna be happy about this. 137 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 1: It was then that they realized that sid had gotten away. 138 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: As Sid blasted off, he called into h q and 139 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: told them the coordinates of the cave. HQ, I found 140 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: all those stolen apples.

That apple eating Lizard Dragon, it's got to 147 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: find a new way to get his own apples and 148 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: not steal them.
