Speaker 1: story as Mey, Ivy. That's right, Ivy's gonna help me

10
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: with this story today. Hey, Ivy, should we start out

11
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: with some shout outs? Yeah, okay, good idea. Let's take

12
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: a look. Hi Anna Bell and Hi Lena Wyatt and Jude,

13
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: thank you so much for your idea dea submissions. Thank you,

14
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: Ellie and Lydia and Brilee Ann, Thanks Mia, Lyla and Lenore,

15
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 1: thanks so much for your comments. Now let's jump in

16
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: to today's story. Do you know how much ice cream

17
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: a thousand dollars can buy? Ivy asked Lee by tying

18
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 1: his shoes by the front door. Hey, Ivy, how much

19
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: ice cream? Do you think you could get for one

20
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 1: thousand dollars eighty one thousand, eighty one thousand ice creams? True?

21
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: A lot, I guess, but you'll never get to find out,

22
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: because I'll be taking that grand price home today, smiled

23
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 1: Ivy as she grabbed her coat. And I'll be using

24
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: my thousand dollars to buy some new toys. Maybe, if

25
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: you're lucky, I'll let you share them with me. Maybe. Hey, Ivey,

26
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 1: do you think you would share your toys with your brother? Yeah?

27
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: All good toys, that's kind. Levi and Ivy were headed

28
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: out that day to an escape room at their mall.

29
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 1: They both love solving riddles, but they also liked the

30
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: thought of winning one thousand dollars. Would you want to

31
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: win a thousand dollars? Yeah? What would you buy with it?

32
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 1: A candy? Just one candy?

33
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 2: Yeah? No, cos.

34
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 1: That's a lot of candy. And it just so happened

35
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: that the escape room was holding their annual contest. Whoever

36
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: solved all the riddles in the time allotted and escaped

37
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 1: the room first would take home one thousand dollars in cash.

38
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy had been there many times before, and

39
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: they knew they could win the money, but greed took

40
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: over a bit, and instead of trying to work together

41
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,399
Speaker 1: to win, they decided they wanted to compete against each other.

42
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: May the best riddle solver win, said Levi as he

43
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: jumped to the backseat with Ivy. Why, thank you, I will,

44
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: laughed Ivy as she stared out the window. Now please

45
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: don't talk to me on the way to the escape room.

46
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: I am trying to prepare my brain for all the

47
00:02:55,360 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: riddles I'll be solving, and I need complete silence. God

48
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: luck with that, said Levi. You'll need all the luck

49
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: you can get when I start solving those riddles left

50
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 1: and right. It was only a short drive, and as

51
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: soon as their dad parked the car, Levi and Ivy

52
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: jumped out. We'll see you after I win the escape

53
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 1: room contest, called out Ivy. Don't you mean after I win?

54
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: Called back Levi, running toward the escape room entrance. Hey, Ivy,

55
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: do you think you could win an escape room? Yeah?

56
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: What do you think makes it that you'd be able

57
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: to win?

58
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,920
Speaker 2: I know as I go fast?

59
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: Oh that's true, you do have to go fast. Huh hmm, Yeah,

60
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: you're right. Okay, so good luck to the both of you,

61
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: I guess, said their dad, sounding a bit confused. I

62
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: thought they were doing this thing together. I guess not.

63
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: He was going to wait in the mall until the

64
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: contest was over, so he headed in, hoping that whatever happened,

65
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: they would both come out happy at the end. Hey, Ivy,

66
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: what what do you think is going to happen? Do

67
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: you think it's better for them to work together or

68
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: work separately? What? Dad? That's all right? I think you're right.

69
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: Hello everyone, and welcome to Ernie's Extraordinary Escape Room, said

70
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: the owner of the escape room, Ernie Riddle. I'm so

71
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: happy to see so many people here today to try

72
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: and win our giant one thousand dollars escape room prize.

73
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 1: The money is as good as mine, whispered Levi to Ivy.

74
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: I was reading a riddle book all last night before bed.

75
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: There's not one riddle that old Ernie could get by

76
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: me today. Well, your silly riddle books are no match

77
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: for my super fast mind, replied Ivy. While you're still

78
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: reading the first riddle, I'll be collecting my prize money.

79
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy were too busy arguing to pay attention

80
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: as Ernie continued to talk because of all their squabbling,

81
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,239
Speaker 1: they didn't hear him say it was time to begin.

82
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: They continued to argue until they finally noticed they were

83
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: the only two legs in the waiting area. Uh oh,

84
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: that's probably not good. Huh. Should you guys have been

85
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: paying attention to what Ernie was saying? Yeah, you're right.

86
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: I think you too will have a better chance to

87
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: win in the escape room contest if you actually go

88
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 1: into the escape room, laughed Ernie. Good luck. Levi and

89
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 1: Ivy rushed toward their rooms. As Ernie closed the doors

90
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: behind them and the other competitors in the waiting room,

91
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 1: they saw who they were up against. A few kids

92
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: from their school, a few teenagers, and an adult or two.

93
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: But one person in particular caught their eye. It was

94
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: mister Grimsby. He owns the hardware store in town, and

95
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 1: he was always in a bad mood. They knew he

96
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 1: would be there because he was always complaining about not

97
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: having enough money to make repairs to his store anytime

98
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: they were in with their dad. They knew he would

99
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: be a good competitor because all he did was complete

100
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 1: riddle books. As he sat in the hardware store and

101
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: waited for customers. He even worked on riddle books when

102
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: customers were in the store and needed help. Like I said,

103
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: he wasn't the nicest guy around, but Levi and Ivy

104
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 1: couldn't worry about him anymore. There was one thousand dollars

105
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: prize to collect. Each competitor was in their own escape

106
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: room with all the same riddles. Some people chose to

107
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: work with friends, and that was fine, but Levi and

108
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: Ivy were on their own, so was mister Grimsby. The

109
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: first riddle that Levi and Ivy got was what goes

110
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: up a chimney but not down a chimney. Levi jumped

111
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: on this one right away, as he had seen it

112
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: in the riddle book the night before. It's ah, and

113
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 1: just before he blurted out the answer, he stalked, even

114
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 1: though Ivy was in a different room. He didn't want

115
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 1: to chance her hearing him, and he ran off to

116
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: find his second riddle in silence. But Ivy wasn't lying before.

117
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: She had a very quick mind and figured out the

118
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: answer just after Levi ran off. It's umbrella. It's an umbrella,

119
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 1: she thought to herself. She then ran over to the

120
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: umbrella stand in the room and found the next riddle,

121
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 1: it was an number sentence. You had to answer three

122
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 1: questions with a number, then those three numbers would be

123
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,239
Speaker 1: used to unlock a lock for the next clue. Levi

124
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: and Ivy didn't particularly love math, but they were both

125
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: pretty good at it. However, they would have been a

126
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: lot better if they had been together. I can't believe

127
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: I'm saying this, whispered Levi to himself. I wish Ivy

128
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: was here. He had already tried the lock twice and

129
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 1: couldn't get it open. And just as he was wishing

130
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 1: that Ivy was with him, little did he know, but

131
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: she was doing the same thing. Ivy tried the lock

132
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: a third time after getting three different numbers, and still

133
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: couldn't get it open. I bet if Levi was here,

134
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: we would have had this lock open by now, thought Ivy.

135
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: It was just then that she saw Ernie Riddle looking

136
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: through the window of her escape room. Levi was right

137
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: next door to her, and she could tell that he

138
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: knew they were both struggling. He knew Levi and Ivy

139
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: since they had been going to his escape rooms for

140
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: quite a while. He also knew that they usually worked together,

141
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: and that maybe the cash prize had made them want

142
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,239
Speaker 1: to work apart. He didn't like how that made him feel,

143
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: and knew by the looks on their faces that they

144
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: needed each other now more than ever, so he made

145
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: a split second decision. Ernie popped his head into Levi's

146
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: escape room and asked him the same question he had

147
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: just asked Ivy. Hey, Levi, would you like to work

148
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: with your sister Ivy moving forward today? Asked Ernie. I

149
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: think it's more important for you two to work as

150
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: a team than to try and beat each other for

151
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: the money. Your brother and sister. That's more important than

152
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: a thousand dollars. Levi was interested in this offer and

153
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 1: asked if Ivy was too, But Ernie didn't even have

154
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,719
Speaker 1: to answer, because Ivy ran right through the escape room

155
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 1: door and gave Levi a big hug. Does that make

156
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: you happy? Yeah? Are you guys better as a team.

157
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 2: Yeah?

158
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 1: If you said you didn't want to team up with

159
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: me today, I would have been so sad, said Ivy.

160
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I let the thought of winning all that

161
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: money get in the way of us just having fun

162
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: like we always do. I know, Ivy, I'm so sorry too,

163
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: replied Levi, Plugging her back. What do you say, we

164
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,079
Speaker 1: don't waste any more time and we win this escape

165
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 1: room challenge. Ivy nodded her head as Ernie smiled and

166
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: closed the door to their escape room. The two could

167
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,559
Speaker 1: hear mister Grimsby in the next room gloating about how

168
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: he was already on riddle number three and how easy

169
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 1: it was. Ivy, did you solve the lock riddle yet,

170
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 1: asked Levi. I didn't, but I know that together we can,

171
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: replied Ivy with a smile. They read out the number

172
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 1: sentences together, helping each other along the way, found where

173
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: they had been making mistakes before, and just like that,

174
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 1: the lock popped open and they were on to riddle

175
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: number Hey. The next riddle was a physical challenge, and

176
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: they had to hop from one side of the room

177
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: to the next, but always had to be in the

178
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 1: same color tile as they always had to step on

179
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: a different tile color as they went. Okay, so we

180
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 1: can go to the red tile first again, Ivy, Then

181
00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: to blue, green, green, and yellow. No, Ivy, we can't

182
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: do that. We can't go from a green tile to

183
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 1: another green tile, explained Levi as they tried again to

184
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 1: map out their journey to the other side of the room.

185
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 1: How about if we make a huge jump from the

186
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 1: green tile to that orange tile, suggested Levi. If you

187
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: think we can make it, I think we can make it,

188
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: said Ivy with a smile. Putting all her trust in

189
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 1: her big brother, They leapt and soared through the air,

190
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: and each landed perfectly on the orange tile and claimed

191
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: their next riddle. I would have never thought to make

192
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: that leap, said Ivy. Great thinking, thanks, said Levi, feeling

193
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 1: really proud. The next riddle was another word one, and

194
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: they both gathered around a little table to read it

195
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: out loud. John's dad has three sons. Their names are Mike, Bob,

196
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: and what's the name of the other son? Levi stared

197
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: at the riddle for a little while before saying, do

198
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: you know anyone named John? How are we supposed to

199
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: know what this guy's kids' names are? Ivy relaxed and

200
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: tried to focus her mind sometimes, Levi, the answer to

201
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: the riddle is in the riddle, said Ivy as she

202
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: read the riddle again. That's it, John, The answer is John.

203
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: Levi looked down and instantly got it. Of course, if

204
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: it's John's dad, John would be the third son brilliant, Ivy,

205
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: said Levi. They then had to find the letters j O,

206
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: H N on the ABC cards on the table, and

207
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 1: each of them had a number on it to use

208
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: on another lock. When they opened that lock, they could

209
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 1: hear mister Grimsby in the other room having trouble with

210
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: the riddle, and at that moment they remembered how they

211
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 1: felt when they were all alone in their escape rooms

212
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: before Ernie thought to bring them back together. All of

213
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 1: a sudden, the money didn't mean that much anymore, and

214
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,079
Speaker 1: they offered mister Grimsby a little bit of help. Mister Grimsby,

215
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: it's Levi, and Ivy said, Ivy. Remember sometimes the answer

216
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 1: to the riddle is in the riddle. There were a

217
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: few moments of silence, and then they heard the lock

218
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 1: open and mister Grimsby says, it's John. Thank you. From

219
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 1: that moment on, they worked as a team to help

220
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 1: each other. Ernie Riddle's voice could be heard over the

221
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: loudspeaker and all the escape rooms, telling the contestants that

222
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: the only people still playing for the crash prize were

223
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,439
Speaker 1: mister Grimsby, Levi, and Ivy. The other rooms had dropped

224
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: out since they weren't able to answer the riddles and

225
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 1: the time allotted for each one. Levi and Ivy knew

226
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: they were close to winning, and so was mister Grimsby.

227
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: They knew they wanted that money, but so did mister Grimsby.

228
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 1: It all came down to one final riddle, what is yours?

229
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: But mostly used by others? There was silence all through

230
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 1: both escape rooms. This one was particularly difficult for both

231
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy, as well as mister Grimsby. Hey, Ivy,

232
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 1: do you think you have an answer for what that

233
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: riddle is? What is yours? But mostly used by others?

234
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: Any idea? No, that's a hard one. Yeah, should we

235
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: find out? Mister Grimsby? How are you doing? Called out Levi?

236
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: Not great? Levi and Ivy, how are you doing? Called

237
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 1: back mister Grimsby. This is a tough one, said Ivy,

238
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 1: thinking hard for a moment, and then suddenly looking as

239
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: if she had an answer, and so did Levi. But

240
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: what they didn't know was mister Grimsby also had the

241
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 1: same look on his face in the next escape room. Then,

242
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: all at once, Ernie Riddle heard all three voices say

243
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: together the answer is your name? That is call wrecked,

244
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: called out Ernie Riddle over the loud speaker, and opened

245
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: the doors to both escape rooms at the same time. Well,

246
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: I can't believe this, but I think we have a

247
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: good old fashioned tie on our hands. What should we

248
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 1: do about this? Mister Grimsby had his usual frown on

249
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: his face, not knowing what the outcome of the tie

250
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: would be, but what happened next certainly left Levi and

251
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: Ivy scratching their heads. I think the kids should get

252
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: the money, said mister Grimsby. They showed such great teamwork

253
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 1: and that's what's really important, not the cash. Wow, thank you,

254
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 1: mister Grimsby. But Levi and I think we should all

255
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,839
Speaker 1: split the prize money, said Ivy. You did just as

256
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: good a job as we did, and you were all

257
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 1: by yourself. Wow. Why thank you, Ivy. Do you really

258
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 1: mean it, asked mister Grimsby. A little extra money could

259
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: really help with some repairs I need to do around

260
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 1: my store. Absolutely, Levi and Ivy said together, and just

261
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: as they said that, their dad stepped over to them.

262
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: I heard that whole thing, he said, with the look

263
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: of pride in his face. I'm so proud of both

264
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: of you, one for working together today and valuing your

265
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: relationship more than money. And two for helping mister Grimsby.

266
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: Great job you two. Ernie Riddle handed out two checks

267
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: that day and everyone went home very happy. Mister Grimsby

268
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: was able to make the repairs to a store. While

269
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy never found out that day exactly how

270
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: much ice cream or how many toys one thousand dollars

271
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: can buy, they got something that was far more important

272
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: than money, the knowledge that they did the right thing

273
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: and they did it together. Hey, Ivy, did you like

274
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: that story? Yeah? Thanks for listening. That's right.

275
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 2: Friends, did you learn a lesson from this story?

276
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 1: Hey? So what was it? And parents, do your kids
