Send us your idea for a 7 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,239 Speaker 1: story and maybe we'll turn it into an awesome adventure. 8 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 1: Are you ready for this one? Me too? Let's go. 9 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: One day. Andrew had just woken up and it was 10 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 1: a beautiful day outside and he was really excited to 11 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 1: get to work. Yeah, Andrew was a kid with a job. 12 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: So cool, and do you know what his job was. 13 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: He worked for the Spy Kids Team. I know, so cool, 14 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:05,320 Speaker 1: and his special job was pretty different from everyone else's job. 15 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: He was specially trained to drive submarines. Do you guys 16 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: know what a submarine is? Yeah, it's really cool. It's 17 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 1: kind of like a boat that goes underwater but stays underwater, 18 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: and so it has to be all closed up, no 19 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: windows or doors or holes or anything. Andrew had to 20 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 1: be all the way inside the submarine so that it 21 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: could drive under the water. It's so cool. And his 22 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: job was to protect the spy kids ocean base and 23 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: to make sure that any bad guys around weren't anywhere 24 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: near them. And so he was on a normal mission 25 00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: this morning, patrolling the water and looking for any thing dangerous, 26 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: when all of a sudden, what is that? He said, 27 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, there's like a huge net that someone 28 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: left in the water. Oh gosh, we gotta get this 29 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: cleaned up. Stuff is gonna get caught in that net. 30 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 1: And wait a second. The net it doesn't even look 31 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: like it accidentally happened someone Someone tied it off on 32 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: an anchor, and it it looks like someone said a 33 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: net trap. Wait, and it's really big, and it looks 34 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: like it's caught on something way over there. So Andrew 35 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: drove the submarine further along down the net. It was 36 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: a very long net that was caught underwater. When all 37 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: of a sudden, Oh my gosh, Andrew said, that's that's 38 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 1: a shark. There's a shark caught in the net. Oh, 39 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: this is bad. Guys. He had seen this before, but 40 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: it had been a very long time. You see, most 41 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: sharks are pretty nice. They won't bother you, and they're 42 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: usually afraid of people. But there are some sharks that 43 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: get tricked into joining the bad Guys team, and the 44 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: bad guys teach the sharks to be really mean and dangerous, 45 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: and this is how they catch their sharks. They leave 46 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: these giant nets in the water to catch the sharks 47 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: as they're swimming by, and then the bad guys come 48 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: and catch the shark that's stuck in the net, and 49 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: then they trick them into being afraid and angry at people. 50 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: And since this one's hanging around our spy kids base, 51 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: I bet the bad guys were planning on like teaching 52 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: the shark to attack our spy base. Like, this is 53 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: really bad. So Andrew had to come up with a 54 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: plan of how to free this shark that was tangled 55 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: really bad in this net. And the thing about sharks 56 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: they have to keep moving in the water to be 57 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: able to breathe. And so if he's stuck in this net, 58 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: oh no, he's not gonna last very long. So Andrew 59 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: put on his scuba gear. Do you guys know what 60 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: scuba gear is. Yeah, it's this really big suit called 61 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: a wet suit that you put on over your whole body, 62 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: and then you put on a mask over your face 63 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: and a big tank goes on your back and that 64 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: has your air, your oxygen that you breathe. And then 65 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: the coolest part of all is the flippers. Have you 66 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: guys ever swam with flippers before in your feet? No? Alwa, 67 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: it's really fun. It makes you go really fast, kind 68 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 1: of like you know how fish have flippers and a 69 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: big tail that helps them swim really fast. And so 70 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: when people can put on flippers on their fee, who 71 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 1: makes him go super duper fast. And so Andrew got 72 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 1: on all his Scooba gear and opened the door to 73 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: step out into the water. Oh wait a second, he forgot. 74 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: We're in a submarine. He's got to bring it back 75 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: up to the surface then he can get out, right. Yeah, 76 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: if he was under water and opened the submarine door, 77 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 1: that would be a big mess all the water which 78 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: had started pouring in. So Andrew pushed the button that 79 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: brought the submarine all the way to the surface of 80 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: the water and then he could open the door. So 81 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: he climbed out and jumped in the water and swam down. 82 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: Good thing he had his Scooba gear on him because 83 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,280 Speaker 1: it was really deep. He swam all the way down 84 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: to the bottom where the shark was caught in the 85 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: net and he waved at the shark, and the shark 86 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: kind of squinted his eyes and he looked kind of scared. 87 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 1: I think the shark was definitely afraid of Andrew. But 88 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: Andrew had learned how to talk shark in spy kids training, 89 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: and so he told the shark, don't be afraid. I'm 90 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: here to help. Do you know how to talk shark? Yeah, 91 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: me neither. I don't know how Andrew did it, but 92 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: somehow he told the shark to not be afraid, and 93 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: the shark understood him. And then Andrew very carefully, with 94 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: some special scissors, cut the net away from the shark's fins, 95 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: around his neck and around his tail. Pretty soon the 96 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: shark was free. Great job, Andrew. The shark was so 97 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: happy to be free again. He turned around and gave 98 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: Andrew a high five with his flipper. WHOA have you 99 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,359 Speaker 1: ever gotten a high five from a shark? Yeah? I 100 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: mean either lucky Andrew. And then the shark swam off. 101 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: He was a very happy shark. The rest of Andrew's 102 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: job wasn't done yet, because he still had to clean 103 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,239 Speaker 1: up this massive net that was stuck in the water. 104 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: So he had a special tool that would suck up 105 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: and pull all the net into this big barrel. And 106 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: once that was done and he made sure all the 107 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: net pieces were out of the water, he swam back 108 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: up to the surface and put the barrel of net 109 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: in the submarine and drove it back to headquarters. Andrew 110 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: did it. He saved the shark and kept the water 111 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: clean of those bad guys traps. Wow, the days of 112 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: a spy kid, and you just never know what's gonna happen. 113 00:07:55,360 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 1: What an adventure Andrew had. Thanks for listening, guys, We'll 114 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: see you next time. Friends. By H.
