Let's go. 14 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 2: All right, Professor, we need you to steal all the 15 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 2: scenes on this list. Oh boy, that sounds terrific. Well, 16 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 2: it's a long list, but I can definitely get it done. 17 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 1: Oh no, that was the voice not only of doctor Stinkybreath, 18 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 1: but another member of his team, Professor's sticky Fingers. Oh no, 19 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: Professor sticky Fingers. He's one of the most creative worst 20 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: thieves in the whole wide world. His sticky fingers allows 21 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,199 Speaker 1: him to steal almost anything. What is on that list? 22 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: What is he going to steal. Well, let's listen and 23 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: see what Hunter and Reed are about to stumble into. 24 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: Hunter and Reed, we're playing in their backyard. They were, 25 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, having lots of fun with their imagination. Do 26 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: you know what your imagination is? Yeah, it's that thing 27 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: inside of your brain that you can maybe close your 28 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: eyes and imagine something that might not be real but 29 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: feels very real inside your mind, Like, oh, maybe you're 30 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: inside of a castle and you're you're guarding it from 31 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 1: the evil trolls, and or or maybe you're an explorer 32 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 1: and you're sailing on a big ship. Well, an imagination 33 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: can be an amazing thing for a member of the 34 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 1: spy team. Hunter and Read both had amazing imaginations. Read 35 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: get down, We gotta get down. The volcano's about to erupt, 36 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: shouted Hunter. They were in their backyard playing volcano. Have 37 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: you ever played volcano before? Oh, that's a fun game. Yeah. Well, 38 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: when the volcano blows the grass and everything turns the 39 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: lava and you have to find a very creative way 40 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: to get back to your house. And Reid had built 41 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: an amazing obstacle course that would lead them over the 42 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: lava that was about to erupt. Three two one. There 43 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: it goes, shouted Red. Hunter and Reid couldn't believe this 44 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 1: ginormous volcano in their backyard that was erupting all this lava. 45 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: We gotta get out of here, go, go go. Hunter 46 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 1: and Reid started to navigate through their course on their backyard, 47 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden they heard a sound. 48 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: Wait time out, Hold on, we gotta pause our adventure, 49 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: said Hunter. That was our spy beeper. We gotta go. 50 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: Hunter and read pause their lava adventure and ran inside 51 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: to check their spy beeper. Whenever that spy beeper went off, 52 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: you just have to stop what you're doing. You gotta 53 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: check and see what the message is, because HQ could 54 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: have a serious emergency for us. As they ran upstairs, 55 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: they couldn't believe it. Wait, Hunter, where'd all my stuff go? 56 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: Reed was looking all over the place, and Hunter ran 57 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: to his or into and all of his spy gear 58 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: was gone, except the spy beeper, which was underneath their bed. 59 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: They clicked the message, and it said Hunter and Reed, 60 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: this is h Q. We have learned that Professor Sticky 61 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: Fingers is on some kind of mission to steal all 62 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: of our spy gear for doctor stinky breath. It is 63 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: up to you to save the day. We are sending 64 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: you a very important plant in the form of a 65 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: seed that you must follow the directions or else there's 66 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: nothing that's going to stop the professor from stealing all 67 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 1: of our gear. Good luck, Hunter and read what their 68 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: professors sticky fingers. He's real. I know I've never seen 69 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 1: him before, but I think he's real, said Hunter, because look, 70 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: all our spy gear is gone. Hunter and Reid couldn't 71 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: believe it. Their jetpack, their binoculars, their net shooter, everything 72 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: was gone. Well, Hunter and Reed went outside and there 73 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: it was a little drone that was flying and it 74 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: dropped a package for them. When all the jetpacks are missing, 75 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 1: they need to use drones to deliver the packages. All right, 76 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: let's open it up, said read. Hunter grabbed the box 77 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: and popped it open, and inside was a very large seed. 78 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: Looked like the seed was bigger than an acorn, maybe 79 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: about the size of a really big grape. All right, 80 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: let's read the directions. Hunter and Reid pulled out a 81 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: long piece of paper. WHOA, it has a lot of directions. 82 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: It says that we have to follow every step perfectly 83 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: or else it's not going to grow. Wait, what in 84 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: the world we trying to grow? Said Reid. Hunter found 85 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: another pamphlet in the box that described what was going on. 86 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: It said, this is a specially formulated bush that produces bubbleberries. 87 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 1: What is a bubbleberry? Said Reid. Hunter kept reading. He said, bubbleberries. 88 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 1: I guess uh looks like yeah, right here, They're specially 89 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: formulated to stop professor sticky fingers. Oh yeah, it says 90 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: these bubbles they get rid of his stickiness on his fingers, 91 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: and so it makes him drop everything that he's stealing, 92 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: and then he oh that he can't steal anymore, and 93 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: then great, then our spy gear will be safe. All right, 94 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: So we have to grow I guess some kind of 95 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: bubbleberry bush. Whoa whoa whoa. Reed was not happy about this. 96 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 1: I didn't join the spy team to grow bushes. I 97 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: want to go fight the band guys and go on 98 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: an adventure. Why would they give us this boring job? Ugh? 99 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: Reed was not impressed, but Hunter put the directions away 100 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: and he said, all right, we gotta get to work. 101 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: This is the mission that HQ gave us. You gotta 102 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: stick it out. Let's Gough. Okay, Hunter and Reed follow 103 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: the direction step by step. It said to first get 104 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: a large container and some very nice clean dirt. Ooh, 105 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: there's some nice soft dirt over there. They filled the 106 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: container with the dirt and planted the seed three inches deep. 107 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: Now this is the hard part, it says Hunter. Read 108 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: the next step. It says, this seed requires a lot 109 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: of regular watering for its first twenty four hours. It 110 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: must be watered every ten minutes, every ten minutes for 111 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: the next twenty four hours. But when are we ever 112 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: gonna sleep? This is impossible, said Reid. I know it 113 00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:01,239 Speaker 1: seems impossible, but us spies, we never give up, said Hunter. 114 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: Hunter and Reed started watering the first time and then 115 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: set a ten minute timer. You see, this was a 116 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: really important mission. The only way to stop Professor Sticky 117 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: Fingers was with a magical formulation of bubbles from the 118 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: bubble berries. Back at HQ, they were developing a new 119 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: way to shoot and launch bubbles, but they needed the 120 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: bubble formula from the bubble berry bush. Our Hunter and 121 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: Reed going to be able to grow this bush in 122 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: time before Professor Sticky Fingers steals all of our spy gear. 123 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: I don't know We're gonna have to wait and see 124 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: what happens on the next episode the end. Great job, 125 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: you listened all the way to the end, and you 126 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: know what time it is.
