1
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:07,480
Speaker 1: Hey, friends, it's mister Jim and welcome back to kids

2
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:11,879
Speaker 1: short stories. Last time we saw that Professor Sticky Fingers

3
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 1: has started stealing all of our spy gear. And it's

4
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: up to Hunter and Read to grow the magical seed

5
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 1: of a bubbleberry bush. Are they going to be able

6
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: to choose to be patient and follow the direction so

7
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: that it grows in time? I don't know. Well, we

8
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:28,639
Speaker 1: gotta find out.

9
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 2: Let's go, Hunter. I don't know how much longer I

10
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 2: can take this. This is one of the hardest challenges

11
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 2: of my entire life, said Reid. Hunter glanced down and said, Read,

12
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 2: We've been watering this plant for like only four hours

13
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 2: so far. Why are you being so dramatic, Because this

14
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 2: is the hardest challenge I've ever had in my entire life.

15
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 2: Not very good at being patient? Read, I guess was

16
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 2: not very good at being patient. Do you think you

17
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,839
Speaker 2: know how to be patient? I bet you do. You see,

18
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 2: being patient means that you value something that's on the

19
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 2: other side of being patient. So imagine if I said, Hey,

20
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,479
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask you to sit in this chair for

21
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 2: five minutes. Do you think that five minutes is gonna

22
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: seem like a long time, or how about ten minutes?

23
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 2: How about if you had to sit in a chair

24
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 2: for ten minutes. That would seem pretty hard, right, I'd

25
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 2: be hard to be patient. Well what if on the

26
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 2: other side of that ten minutes you got a cookie? Oh,

27
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 2: I bet you'd be up for that challenge. Well, see,

28
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: you can choose to be patient, and sometimes it's something

29
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 2: that you have to choose to do and not. It's all,

30
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 2: there's not always a cookie at the other side. Well,

31
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 2: as spies, Hunter and Reed, they had been to a

32
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 2: lot of trainings about how to choose to be patient,

33
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 2: but I guess it's harder to act it out in

34
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 2: real life. And Reed was really struggling.

35
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 1: I don't think I can do this. Beep beep, beep.

36
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 1: All right, it's time to water, said Hunter. You see,

37
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 1: they had an alarm going off every ten minutes. They

38
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: had to water the seed so that it would grow,

39
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: and then that bush would produce the bubble berries that

40
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 1: we need to stop, Professor sticky fingers. The weird thing

41
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 1: is that they just have to water every ten minutes,

42
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: because I guess this is a very thirsty seed. Hunter

43
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,959
Speaker 1: reached for the watering can and watered the seed again.

44
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: All right, now reset the timer and then uh, we'll

45
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: do it again, said Hunter. Reed was really running out

46
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 1: of patients. I don't know, I really need a break. Hunter.

47
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: Do you think you could take over for a little

48
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 1: while and then maybe we could take turns. Oh yeah,

49
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: that's actually a great idea, said Hunter. Oh good, I'm

50
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: gonna go lay down or something. Reed was acting like

51
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: this was like one of the hardest things in his

52
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 1: entire life to do. But I get it. Being patient

53
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: and doing the same thing over and over and over,

54
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 1: watering that seed over and over every ten minutes, that

55
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 1: could seem like a pretty challenging thing to do.

56
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:28,399
Speaker 2: Well.

57
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: Reid ran inside to go play with his legos for

58
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: a little bit. Sometimes it is nice to take a

59
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: break from something every once in a while. It gives you,

60
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: ah some fresh eyes and a fresh amount of patience.

61
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: Hunter was very focused on the job. He every ten minutes,

62
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: when that alarm went off, he would water that seed.

63
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: Still nothing was growing. Starting to get a little worried

64
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: that it wasn't actually working. Could this seed actually be broken?

65
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: Like?

66
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: What if we're actually supposed to go out and stop

67
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: sticky fingers? Why are we wasting our time? With the seed,

68
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: Hunter's mind began to fill with a whole bunch of

69
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: thoughts that maybe he should go off and do his

70
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: own thing and stop the Professor because he is a

71
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 1: pretty good spy. Hunter thought to himself, Hey, Reid, Reid

72
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 1: couldn't hear him because he was inside. So Hunter left

73
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: the seed to go find Read. And this was not

74
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 1: a very good choice. Oh boy, he's finally left that seed.

75
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: Maybe I can go steal it. Oh no, that's the professor.

76
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 1: Is he nearby? Reid? There you are. Hunter had finally

77
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: found Read building his legos. Hey what's up?

78
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: Well?

79
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: I was thinking, do you think we should really follow

80
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: the directions forever? Because maybe we should just go out

81
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: and try and stop the Professor.

82
00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 2: Uh.

83
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: I don't know about that, said Reid. I know I

84
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 1: was acting really dramatic and that this was ridiculous, but

85
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: it is what HQ told us to do, and they're

86
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: always right, So maybe we should just stick it out

87
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 1: and if we take turns it'll be a lot easier,

88
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: said Reid. I guess you're right, said Hunter. Reid glanced

89
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: out the window to check and see if the seed

90
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: had started to grow, and it was gone. Hunter, did

91
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 1: you move that thing. Where's the seed?

92
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 2: Where did it go?

93
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: Hunter couldn't believe it. He had only gone inside for

94
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: a little bit. They both raced outside as fast as

95
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: they could, and sure enough, the seed and its little

96
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: container that it was in was missing. What's all this

97
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: sticky stuff all over the ground. You don't think the

98
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: professor got here? Oh no, Hunter and Reed started to

99
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: look all over the place and wait, look over there

100
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 1: there was a trail going into the forest with a

101
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 1: whole bunch of I don't know, sticky, gooey stuff. I

102
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 1: bet that's him. Let's follow it. Hunter and Reed didn't

103
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: have any of their spy gear because remember it was

104
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 1: all stolen by Professor Sticky Fingers. They had to do

105
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: this all on their own without any spy gear. Oh no, Reed,

106
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: this is all my fault. I never should have left

107
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: it alone in the first place. And we're gonna run

108
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 1: out of time. The timer is gonna go off in

109
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: four minutes. We only have four minutes left to water

110
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: that thing, and then it's all for nothing, said Hunter.

111
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: Oh it's gonna be okay, dude, said Reid. We're gonna

112
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: get it. Don't worry, let's go. Hunter and Reed We're

113
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: running faster and faster into the forest, trying to catch

114
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: up to the professor. It's a good thing. The professor

115
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: is very sticky. Because he's not fast. He has to

116
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: h every step he takes. He gets sticky everywhere. Oh boy,

117
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: there's no way that I can let them get this

118
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 1: thing back. I gotta get this back to doctor stinky breath,

119
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 1: and he is to be so happy. Yes, there he is,

120
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 1: shouted Hunter. They had finally caught up to him in

121
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 1: the forest. Professor, you better put that down or else

122
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: we're gonna send HQ on you. Like you could ever

123
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: do that. There's no way. As Professor's sticky fingers leaned

124
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 1: up against a tree to turn around and laugh at

125
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: Hunter and read, eh, my hands, they're stuck.

126
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 2: Oh no.

127
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: Hunter and Reed were able to grab the pot out

128
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: of Professor's sticky fingers hands as he was stuck to

129
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,679
Speaker 1: the tree. Hurry, let's get out of here. We're running

130
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: out of time. Hunter checked the timer and there was

131
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 1: only twenty seconds left before the plant needed its next watering.

132
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: They ran back to the house as fast as they could.

133
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: Reid grab the water quick. They grabbed the water and

134
00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: water the seed just in time as the timer went off, Shure,

135
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: that was close. All right, Reid, we really got to

136
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: stick this out. Yeah, now I see how important it

137
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: is if the Professor wants to steal this, This has

138
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,239
Speaker 1: got to be the real deal, said Hunter. The rest

139
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: of the day, Hunter and Reed stuck to it every

140
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: ten minutes. Even though it seems silly, they still watered

141
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: the seed every single time. The next morning, sure enough,

142
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: a bush had quickly grown out of the dirt in

143
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: the pot. Hunter and Reed were able to send the

144
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: bush and its berries into HQ for sampling. And it worked.

145
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 1: They were able to create a very secret formulation of

146
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: bubble berries. You see, with our Bubbleshooters, we can now

147
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 1: shoot these bubble berries, these bubbles at Professor Sticky Fingers,

148
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: and that will stop him for good, well unless he

149
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: can get sticky again, which I'm sure he can, but

150
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: it will at least stop him that day from stealing anything. Wow,

151
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: great job Hunter and Read. It's because of you choosing

152
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 1: to be patient that you grew that seed and we

153
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: now have magical bubble berries. Who that was an amazing adventure,

154
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: just the beginning of stopping Professor Sticky Fingers the end.

155
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: Great job you listened all the way to the end,

156
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,040
