Speaker 1: along the way. Are you guys ready for today's adventure?

15
00:00:50,479 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: Me too. Let's go but Teo and Felix. Zubuela was

16
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 1: tending to her garden one sunny afternoon when the sky

17
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: above her suddenly grew dark. I didn't know it was

18
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: supposed to storm today, she said. She placed her tomatoes

19
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 1: and peppers into her basket before looking up towards the sky.

20
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: She expected to see dark storm clouds ahead, but instead

21
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: there was a huge round spacecraft floating above, blocking the sun.

22
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: Oh my, she exclaimed. She stood up and watched as

23
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: the unafftenified flying object lowered itself, oh dear, right onto

24
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: her front yard. A loud bushhhhh sounded as a ramp

25
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: appeared from underneath, lowering itself down to the ground. It

26
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: landed on the grass and everything was quiet for a moment.

27
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: A Buela stepped closer to get a better look. The

28
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: ramp led to a dark opening. Being the brave sort,

29
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 1: she thought about walking up the ramp for a peek inside,

30
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,399
Speaker 1: but as she got closer to it, she could hear

31
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: sounds coming from within. Sounded like hundreds of bouncy balls

32
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: boinging off the walls inside the spacecraft, boing, bung bung.

33
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: A Buela jumped back as round bouncy creatures came into view.

34
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: They were green, purple, and yellow, and they continued to

35
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 1: bounce against the walls. At the top of the ramp.

36
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: A Buela stood very still and quiet, but they still

37
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: sputtered her. She knew they had because all of a

38
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:55,519
Speaker 1: sudden they began squeaking and bouncing even faster, earthing ah

39
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 1: the round, bowling ball sized aliens used the ramp like

40
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: a slip and then rolled over to a Buela surrounding her,

41
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 1: but a Boila was not afraid. Ets. What are you

42
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: doing here, little aliens? They bounced up and down furld

43
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 1: fooled us. Say please, a Boila said, looking at them sternly.

44
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 1: Balls are boles? A green one squeaked, and then they

45
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: all rolled over to the basket of tomatoes and began

46
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: bouncing higher. A Boila grabbed her basket and headed inside.

47
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: The aliens rolled and bounced after her, squeaking about food

48
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: the whole way. A few minutes later, Mateo and Felix

49
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: arrived at their Boila's house. They gasped when they saw

50
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: the giant spacecraft parked in her front lawn. Felix, why

51
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: is there UFO in front of a Boela's house? Do

52
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: you think they took a Boeila? Felix shouted, full of worry.

53
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: The boys ran towards the spaceship and started investigating. It

54
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: looked dark and empty. If they did take a boiler,

55
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: she isn't in the spaceship, said Matteo. Just then, a

56
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: loud banging sound came from inside a Boila's house. The

57
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: boys snuck over to the front door and listened carefully,

58
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: hearing more banging and clanging noises and some strange streaks.

59
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: Felix's hands flew to his head. They're inside with a boiler.

60
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 1: They must have trapped her somehow. It sounds like they're

61
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:45,479
Speaker 1: destroying her house. Okay, okay, don't panic, said Felix. We

62
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 1: need to come up with a plan. What if cover

63
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: ourselves in mud so they can't smell us with their

64
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: super alien senses, and then sneak in and free a Boeila.

65
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: If they have super alien senses, they hear us, said Mateo,

66
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: Let's pretend we're big, super strong superheroes and ren and yelling,

67
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: and so they get scared and run off. Here. I

68
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: brought some things we could use, Mateo reached into his backpack.

69
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: The boys agreed that this was the best plan of options.

70
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: What would you do if you're uh faced with, you know,

71
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 1: trying to scare away aliens? How would you do it?

72
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 1: The boys agreed that this was the best plan and

73
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 1: started preparing, tying blankets around their shoulders as caps, drawing

74
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: masks on their faces with paint, and wearing extra underpants

75
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: over their pants. You know, that's an important part of

76
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 1: being a superhero. Meanwhile, inside a Boiles's house, she was

77
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: whipping up dishes of food at the request of the bouncy,

78
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: hungry aliens. They were very interested in the tomatoes, so

79
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: Buila made them fried green tomatoes, salsa, and a fresh

80
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: tomato salad. They gobbled it all up before a Boila

81
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: could even warn them that the salsa might, oh dear

82
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: be spicy. The aliens mouths began smoking, and they started

83
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: bouncing off the walls and ceilings like they were whistling

84
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: as tea kettles. When they finally settled down, Buela had

85
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: pictures of lemonade and iced tea waiting for them next time.

86
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: The please slow down when you're eating, she told them sternly.

87
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: The aliens listened, since a Buela had taught them manners.

88
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 1: She smiled and placed her grandson's favorite dishes down on

89
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 1: the table. This time, the aliens waited to be served.

90
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 1: As they were waiting, a loud roar sounded from outside

91
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: the door. Boh It suddenly slammed open, and the two

92
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 1: boys ran into the kitchen, their arms waving wildly as

93
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: they roared. At the aliens, But the aliens didn't get scared.

94
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 1: They just watched the boys curiously. We're here to save

95
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 1: a boila lotter god aliens, the boys shouted, A boila

96
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: laughed over by the sink. Ola men, it does, I

97
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: just made your favorite dish. Go sit at the table. Please.

98
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: We left two open seats for you. The boys lowered

99
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: their arms. Stop trying to scare the aliens. You were

100
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: very confused. Why wasn't a bueila scared a buela? Are

101
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: they making you cook for them? Did they trap you

102
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: in the kitchen? What is happening? Oh, they are actually

103
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: very friendly and they're all working on their manners. Now

104
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: sit and eat. So Felix and Matta sat down at

105
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: the table, surrounded by the round, green and yellow and

106
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 1: purple aliens. The aliens bounced in excitement when Abuela served them,

107
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: and again when they tasted her delicious food. They remember

108
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: this time to say please and thank you, and even

109
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: brought their plates to the sink when they were finished.

110
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: Way a bad slave, baby buntler, our thuns bolt, the

111
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: aliens said, before bouncing and rolling out the front door

112
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: together towards their spaceship. Abuela, Mateo, and Felix followed them out.

113
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 1: Before they rolled up their ramp, turned around and waved goodbye.

114
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: Hell r flet us a gun tomorrow, asked the purple alien.

115
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: They all gave her sad faces as they bounced up

116
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: and down, saying, Abuela smiled yes, since you've asked so nicely.

117
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: The alien's chorus of please turned into woo as they

118
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: disappeared into their spaceship and took off. Wow. This may

119
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: be the end of our story, but it is definitely

120
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 1: only just the beginning of the amazing adventures of the

121
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: Aliens and Abuila. We'll see you next time. Great job,
