Speaker 1: Are you guys ready for today's adventure? Me too, Let's go.

16
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do. Ooh, Penelope wine to

17
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: her sister Zoe as the two of them face first

18
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 1: on the couch. It was a cool September day, the

19
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: gray sky, dry but dreary.

20
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 2: Okay, you two, time.

21
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: To shake off those lazy bones, their mom called out

22
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: to them, But mom Zoe protested, there's nothing to do

23
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 1: sure there is go outside, maybe go for a walk

24
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: and find an adventure. Then she handed them their shoes

25
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 1: and shooed them out the door. Penelpe and Zoe started

26
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: walking around their neighborhood, hoping to find some of their

27
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: friends along the way, but there didn't seem to be

28
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: anyone out on this grade ay besides them. They walked

29
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: past quiet yards and houses. Even the birds and squirrels

30
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: in the tree seemed to be extra sleep be today.

31
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: If we don't see anything exciting by the time we

32
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: get to the corner, let's just turn around. Penelope decided, Wait,

33
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: what's that, Zoe asked her sister. I think there's.

34
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 2: Someone over there.

35
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: Finally, the corner up ahead was blocked by bushes, but

36
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: the girls could see a sweater moving on the other side.

37
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 1: He couldn't see the person's face or hair, but they

38
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: look to be the same height as the two of them.

39
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 1: I hope it's Juliana, Zoe said, But as they got closer,

40
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 1: they saw it wasn't Juliana. It wasn't even a person

41
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: at all. The purple and yellow sweater was just that

42
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,119
Speaker 1: a sweater. Nobody was even wearing it.

43
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 2: But I don't know it.

44
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 1: Wasn't like just a sweater, since it was floating in

45
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: the air. The girls watched as the sweater floated closer

46
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: to them. It lifted its sleeves up towards them in

47
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 1: a handless sort of hello. Then it bumped into Penelope repeatedly.

48
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 3: I think it.

49
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: Wants you to put it on, said Zoe. Put it

50
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 1: on a way, because you know, we don't know where

51
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 1: that thing's.

52
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: Been or what it wants.

53
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 1: Penelope replied.

54
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 2: At that, the.

55
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: Sweater flew up above her and tried to pull itself

56
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: over her. Oh okay, I get it now, I'll put

57
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: you on, she yelled through the fabric as it kept

58
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: covering her face. Penelope grabbed the sweater and pulled it

59
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: over her head. As she did, one of the sleeves

60
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: wrapped around Zoe's hand before instantly soon transporting them to

61
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: the desert. What this was very confusing. Nelbie popped her

62
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: head out through the top of the sweater and pulled

63
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: her arms through, not yet noticing even what had happened. WHOA,

64
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: what the I wonder? This sweater floated. The inside is inflated.

65
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm wearing a swim tuber wade.

66
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 2: Wait, a second, Zoey, what just happened? Where are we?

67
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: Penelope shrieked. The two girls looked out at the desert

68
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: all around them. The land was sandy and dry. Everything

69
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: looked dusty, and the only pop of color came from

70
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: the green cactie clustered in patches across the ground. Banelopie

71
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: grabbed her sister's hand. Zoey, why and how did we

72
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: get in the desert? I don't Oh no, you put

73
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: on the sweater and the sleeve grabbed me and then

74
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: we were just here. Zoe replied, Wait, wait, wait, wait, Penelbe,

75
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: do you think the sweater is magical? Penelbe went to answer,

76
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: but something on her back was itching like crazy?

77
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 2: Oh what is that?

78
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 3: Oh?

79
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 2: Can you help me?

80
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: It's that, she cried, pulling the collar of the sweater.

81
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: Zoe looked and saw the tag was sticking out. Grabbing it,

82
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: she read care instructions, Jump and make a wish using

83
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: one word only for best results, wash in cold water.

84
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: Zoe shrieked with excitement. Whoa, it is magic, Penelobe jump? Okay,

85
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: well it's pretty hot out here. How about pool? Penelbe

86
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: jumped as she said it, and as her feet landed

87
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: on the ground, so did an inflatable pool her.

88
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 2: Zoe and Penelbe made a sound of amazement like oh.

89
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you were amazed at having just found a

90
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 1: magical sweater, what sound would you make like?

91
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 2: Holl it smokes.

92
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: Then Zoe grabbed the sweater on Penelope's arm and jumped,

93
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: yelling floaties. As she landed, floaties appeared on their arms.

94
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 1: She looked at Penelbe, well, I you know, I can't

95
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,479
Speaker 1: swim without them, and then she climbed into the pool.

96
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 1: Penelbie followed, still wearing the inflatable sweater. As the two

97
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: girls floated and splashed, Enelbe's tummy rumbled from hunger. Climbing

98
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 1: out of the water, Penelobe jumped and yelled pizza. An

99
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: inflatable pizza appeared on the ground next to her. She

100
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,720
Speaker 1: looked at the blow up toy and frustration, What I

101
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: can't eat this? She tried to tacos poof inflatable tacos, burgers.

102
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 2: Poof salad, watermelon, poof poof.

103
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: Every food item she wished for appeared as is its

104
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: inflatable form. Zoe walked up and grabbed her sleeve, trying

105
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: lunchbox an inflatable lunchbox appeared in front of them. Penelope

106
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: opened it up and finally inside with some real, non

107
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: inflatable food. Penelope wished for a table and chairs, and

108
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: the girls sat down happily splitting the cheese, sandwich and apples.

109
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 1: The blow up chairs squeaked as they moved around them,

110
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: squeak when they were finished. Zoe tried to wish for

111
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: ice cream cones, hoping for real ice cream inside of

112
00:07:55,600 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: maybe inflatable cones, but nothing appeared. He explained too many words.

113
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: Allwishes have to be one word. Remember, Oh well.

114
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 3: Then playground elephant, skyscraper, jump, jump jump, and all of

115
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 3: Zoe's wishes appeared inflatable.

116
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: Of course. The girls slid down the inflatable slide and

117
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: swung on the inflatable swings. Penelope and Zoe tried to

118
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: climb the giant blow up elephant and even the larger

119
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 1: blow up skyscraper. When that didn't work, the girls pretended

120
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 1: to be monsters and tried knocking the large inflatable building over. Ah,

121
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:48,559
Speaker 1: look at me, I'm a giant corilla. After a few hours,

122
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,439
Speaker 1: Penelope and Zoe were exhausted from all their playing. Penelbe

123
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: mustered up all her strength and jumped bad. Her and

124
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: Zoe crawled up onto a blow up bed, complete within

125
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: flated pillows and blankets. Then Zoe yawned home. To their surprise,

126
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: instead of an inflatable house appearing, the bed started moving.

127
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: It zoomed across the desert, picking up speed so fast

128
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: that the world around them became a blur. When everything

129
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: came back into view, the girls were back in their neighborhood,

130
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: their inflatable bed parked in their front yard.

131
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 2: Wow.

132
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 1: I think they got to be a little more careful

133
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: what they wished for with that magical inflatable sweater the end.

134
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,480
