1 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: Hello Friends, it's Mr Jim and welcome back to kids 2 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: short stories. Today's story is our part two of our 3 00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:16,320 Speaker 1: pillars of the spy team adventures. Do you remember last 4 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: time when macy burned her finger with a really hot marshmallow? Well, Aida, 5 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: she needs to go find some kind of plant to 6 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 1: save the day. I don't know. I hope Aida is 7 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,639 Speaker 1: able to make it in time. Are you ready for 8 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 1: part two? Me Too. Let's go. As Aida was running 9 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 1: through the forest as fast as she could. She was 10 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: a little worried about her sister, macy. Oh No, I 11 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: hope she's gonna be okay. That looks like it hurt 12 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: a lot. I gotta find this Alivia plant fast. Yes, 13 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: an alivera plant. That is a really cool plant that's 14 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,559 Speaker 1: been around for a very, very long time. You See 15 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: al O Vera? It's a it's a spiky green plant. 16 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: It has long leaves that come out from its base 17 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 1: and it looks kind of spiky. It looks a little scary, 18 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: but it's very thick and juicy inside, and inside is 19 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 1: a very magical thing, some kind of Gel that helps 20 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: when you have like a burn on your skin or 21 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: some other things. But Aida, she needed to find this 22 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: fast in order to help macy. Like I said earlier, 23 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: their forest was full of all kinds of amazing plants, 24 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,839 Speaker 1: plants that were good for eating, plants that were good 25 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: for like medicine and helping your body, and Ali Vera plants. 26 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: Those are one of those really important plants that can 27 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: help save your skin. Ada was searching all over the 28 00:01:55,840 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: forest and she ran everywhere, but there's none around. All 29 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: of a sudden she saw a squirrel in her backyard and, 30 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: just so you know, Aida, she knew how to talk 31 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: to squirrels, and so she asked, Mr Squirrel, I really 32 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: need help. My sister got hurt and she needs some 33 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: Ala Vera from that plant. Have you seen one around 34 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: or left half just termint? The squirrel took off running 35 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,519 Speaker 1: as fast as it could and Aida could barely keep up. 36 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: I wonder how squirrels get all of their energy. They 37 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: always seem like they have unlimited energy. Maybe they're drinking. 38 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: Do you think squirrels drink a lot of coffee? Probably not. Well, 39 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: maybe this squirrel does. Ada was running as fast as 40 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: she could try and to keep up the squirrel as 41 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: he jumped from tree to tree to tree, all the 42 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: way to a part of the forest that Aida had 43 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: never been to. As they turned a corner around some bushes, 44 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: it all opened up. Wow, this is amazing. Ada looked 45 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: around and there were all kinds of plants that she'd 46 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: never seen before. It looked like this was some kind 47 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: of secret garden. Yes, this is actually mathurbal, but I 48 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: will stare with you. Oh, great, okay, Um, which one 49 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: is the alvair plant? That service circle and the squirrel 50 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: jumped down and and ran and there it was. There 51 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: was a ginormous Allo plant. It was almost as tall 52 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: as Aida. Wow, this is perfect. Ada reached over and 53 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: grabbed one of the leaves and snapped part of it off. 54 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,839 Speaker 1: It's gooey inside started to leak out a little bit 55 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: onto her fingers. It felt kind of like Jello and 56 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: kind of like slime, but Aida needed to hurry back fast. 57 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: All right, Mr Squirrel, thanks so much for help, but 58 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: could you actually show me more of this later? are 59 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: absolutely will just come back whenever. Aida took off running 60 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: back to her house. She had to make it back 61 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: in time to help macy. As she was running through 62 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 1: the forest, she could see her house up ahead. She 63 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: was getting closer. Macie, I have it. It's coming. Just 64 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: hang on. Okay, it hurts. Macy was still holding her 65 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: hand waiting for that Alivera. Aida raised over and immediately 66 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: got to work. She opened up the Ali Vera Leaf. 67 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: You can kind of peel it open or you can 68 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: squeeze out the Goo out the side, and they carefully 69 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: helped macy's burn feel a lot better. Wow, great job, Ada, 70 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: said her parents. That was really fast. We're proud of you, macy. 71 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: Are you feeling any better? Said Aida. Yeah, this does 72 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: help it feel a lot better, but, holy smokes, I 73 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: just should have waited until it cooled off. Said macy. Yeah, 74 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: I know, I'm excited too, but it's really important that 75 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: we use self control and that we we wait until 76 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: it's the right time. I know, I just wanted it 77 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: so bad I didn't know that it would actually burn 78 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:28,359 Speaker 1: my skin, said macy. You See, that is why, a spies, 79 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,559 Speaker 1: we have to learn self control. Self control is so 80 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: important as a spy because we're always making all kinds 81 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: of decisions of do we go this way or that way, 82 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: or do we follow the spy rules or do we not? 83 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: All of our great spies have learned really valuable lessons 84 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: of why they need to always use self control. Can 85 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: you think of a time when maybe you should have 86 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: used self control role or when you did use self control? 87 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: Like how about you really got upset and you're really 88 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: mad and you wanted to scream as a lot as 89 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: you could, but you he took a deep breath and 90 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: instead of screaming at someone, Ah, you chose to have 91 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: control over your your body and your emotions. Or maybe 92 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: doctor stinky breath was trying to trick you into eating 93 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: a lot of candy and you chose to not do that. 94 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: That that is using self control. Those are all really 95 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: important as spy team members, and I think macy has 96 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: learned that lesson. Unfortunately, it meant her finger getting a 97 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: little hurt, but thankfully Ada, her sister, was able to 98 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: find that magical Ala Vero plant. Wow, I wish I 99 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: had a forest like there's in my backyard that was 100 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: full of all kinds of really cool plants, and I 101 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: definitely learned my lesson. I'M gonna definitely use self control 102 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: the next time I'm mused. I'm making some wars, how 103 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: about you? Yeah, alright, spies. Well, those are some of 104 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: the pillars of being on the spy team. I hope 105 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: you've learned them all, because I need you on the 106 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: spy team to stop Dr Stinky Breath, the Purple Ninjas 107 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: and professor sticky fingers.
