Me too, 15 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 2: Let's go. 16 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:03,279 Speaker 1: Theo loved dinosaurs. He loved dinosaurs so much that he 17 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: even named his hamster Bronto, after his favorite dinosaur, the Bronosaurus. 18 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 1: Bronto loved dinosaurs too. He loved to look at Theo's 19 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: dinosaur books and watched his Theo played with his dinosaur toys. 20 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: Bronto loved dinosaurs so much he wished he could be one. 21 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 2: Two. 22 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: I really want to be a real Brontosaurus, Bronto announced 23 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: to the family dog Roxy. Theo wasn't allowed to name 24 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: the family dog, and Bronto thought he was missing out 25 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: by not having a cool dino name like his. Why 26 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: would you want to do that, Roxy asked, Then you'd 27 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: be too big to run on your wheel or right 28 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: around in theo's pocket. But if I were a real dinosaur, 29 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: then I wouldn't need to ride in theo's pocket. He 30 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: could ride around on me, replied Bronto. Why, yes, if 31 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: you run on that wheel fast enough, maybe you'll open 32 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: up a portal back to the land of dinosaurs. She 33 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: laughed and walked out of theo's room, but Bronto wasn't discouraged. 34 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: Even though Roxy the dog was laughing. 35 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 2: Maybe she was right. Hmmm. 36 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: So Bronto picked up speed on his wheel. He ran 37 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: as fast as his little feet would carry him, and 38 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 1: then pushed himself even harder. Suddenly, a shimmery purple appeared 39 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: in the middle. 40 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 2: Of his wheel. 41 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: What is that, asked Bronto. He ran faster, and the 42 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: purple shimmer grew larger. It kept growing wider and wider 43 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: until it was about to swallow the wheel Bronto was 44 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: running on. Proxy. Hey, hey, Roxy, I get that, Bronto shouted. 45 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,959 Speaker 1: He saw the dog's white muzzle peek through the doorway 46 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: just before the purple shimmer grew again and swallowed up 47 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 1: the whole wheel, shouted Bronto. As the wheels spun him 48 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 1: through time, images flew past him until he saw images 49 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 1: of dinosaurs all around him. He began to slow down 50 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: to get a better look. When he did, even more 51 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: dinosaurs came into view. He could also see the green 52 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: of the ground and the blue of the sky. Volcanoes 53 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: were smoking out in the distance, and pits of tar 54 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: were visible around the landscape. Bronto stepped off his wheel 55 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,559 Speaker 1: and alarmed to see that he was now face to face. 56 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 2: With a real wife brontosaurus. Did I really do it? Did? 57 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: I traveled through a portal and back to the time 58 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 1: of the dinosaurs. He jumped up and down and heard 59 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: a booming sound like thunder that caused him to jump again. 60 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: Oh easy, there, fella. Don't wanna shake down the whole forest, 61 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 2: said the brontosaurus next to him. 62 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:41,239 Speaker 1: How can I do that? I'm just a hamster, laughed Bronto. 63 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: Then he asked, why are you so small? You're supposed 64 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 1: to be the biggest dinosaur around. The brontosaurus frowned. 65 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 2: I don't know what a amster is, but you are 66 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: definitely not one, and I am tall, but so are you. 67 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 2: We're both brontosauruses. 68 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: What Bronto turned and ran for the nearest puddle of 69 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: water to look at his reflection. As he did, something 70 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: thundered beneath him. He looked into the puddle and gasped, dude, 71 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: I'm really a diosaur. 72 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 2: He jumped for joy and heard the thundering sound again. 73 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: Oh that's me. Bronto stomped his giant dinosaur feet again 74 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: and watched the trees all shake around him. Be careful, 75 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: you don't know what could happen if you shake the 76 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: ground too much. 77 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 2: But Bronto was too excited to listen. 78 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: Look at may I get a lace off the tallest 79 00:05:55,080 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: three branches. He munched and crunched his way happily through 80 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 1: the nearest tree. I get across the river in just 81 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: one step, he shouted happily while stepping over the river. 82 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: Let me do it again. Bronto leaped back and forth 83 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: over the river, shaking the ground, the trees and everything around. 84 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: Stop stomping, the brontosaurus, warned him again, but it was 85 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: too late. 86 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 2: All of Bronto's stopping had shook up. Oh dear the volcano, 87 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 2: and it was waking up the volcano rumbled and thundered 88 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 2: through the air. The volcano's going to a rap, shouted 89 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: the brontosaurus. Uh. 90 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,359 Speaker 1: Bronto looked around frantically for a place to hide and 91 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: spotted his wheel passing through the portal. Must have made 92 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: his wheel bigger too, because it was ginormous. I have 93 00:06:59,279 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: an idea. 94 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:00,919 Speaker 2: Follow me. 95 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: The two stomped toward the wheel, jup on. Once they 96 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: were both on, Bronto gave the last direction, Run as 97 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: fast as you can. The two dinosaurs did just that. 98 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 2: The wheel isn't going anywhere, the brontosaurus told Bronto. 99 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: Just trust me. They keep running. They kept running and 100 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: running and running until the purple shimmer appeared in the 101 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: middle of the wheel. In the distance, lava began spewing 102 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: angrily from the volcano. Keep running, Bronto assured the scared Brontosaurus. 103 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: They ran, and the purple shimmer continued to grow. The 104 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: volcano shot hot lava into the air just as the 105 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: purple shimmer grew large enough to swallow the wheel hole. 106 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: They ran back through time until Bronto saw theo's bedroom here. 107 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: Slow down. He called out. The wheel slowed down and 108 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: began to shrink. The Brontosaurus was thrown from it, and 109 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: Bronto fell back into his cage. He saw Roxy the 110 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: dog in the corner of the room with her doggie 111 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: jaw open in shock. 112 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 2: Er. Is that did did you? 113 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: Roxy stammered, unable to get the words out. Bronto sat 114 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: in his shavings and smiled. Yep, I just traveled back 115 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: in time. 116 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 2: I was a dinosaur. 117 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: He forgot all about the brontosaurus until he heard things 118 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: smashing in the room. Brontosaurus was squished inside the bedroom, 119 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 1: its tail sticking out the open window, its head sticking 120 00:08:54,720 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: through theo's open door. Then Bronto heard footsteps approaching. Uh uh, 121 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: Bronto said, right before we heard Theo's voice from the hallway. Ah, 122 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: what is this? A real brontosaurus in my room? Cool? Wow, 123 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: that may be the end of our story, but holy smokes, 124 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,359 Speaker 1: can you imagine a real dinosaur being dropped into your bedroom? 125 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 2: Wow?
