Me too, 9 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:47,839 Speaker 1: Let's go. Aaron had just woken up and stretched and 10 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: was getting out of bed because today was Saturday, one 11 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: of his favorite days of the week, because that meant 12 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: he had more options of what he was a to 13 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: do that day. And today he was gonna clean up 14 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,479 Speaker 1: his room and catch up on some of the things 15 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: that he'd been putting off. 16 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 2: But he really liked doing. He really liked having a 17 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 2: clean room. 18 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: His clean rooms help you find everything a lot faster, 19 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: and it's a lot easier to play when you don't 20 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: have everything all laying around. 21 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 2: And so he was working. 22 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: Really hard to put everything away nice and organize and. 23 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 2: Aaron was really good at that. Hey, Aaron, it's time 24 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 2: for breakfast. Come on downstairs. Oh good. 25 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: Aaron ran downstairs as fast as he could and gobbled 26 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: up his breakfast. Wow, that was delicious, Thank you so much. 27 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: Aaron put on his shoes and ran outside. 28 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 2: It was a pretty nice day. 29 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: It was pretty cloudy, but it wasn't too cold and 30 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: it wasn't too warm. He was excited to go outside 31 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: for a little bit to take a break from cleaning 32 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: his room. 33 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 2: But then all of a sudden, spike it beeper. You see, I. 34 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: Forgot to tell you that Aaron was on the Animal 35 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: Rescue Spy Kid team. 36 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: His job was to protect all the animals in his area. 37 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: And when the beeper went off, that man somebody was 38 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: in trouble. 39 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 2: When he ran back to his beeper, he read the 40 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 2: message and it said, erin, we need your help. 41 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 3: There was a kitten walking around and he's unfortunately gotten 42 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 3: himself very stuck in some sticky mud. And this sticky 43 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 3: mud is very dangerous. So when you're over there and 44 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 3: trying to rescue him, be very careful. We don't want 45 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 3: you to get stuck. Good luck, over and out. 46 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 2: Sticky mud, Aaron shouted. Sticky MUD's like the worst. 47 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: It's it's almost like worse than quicksand because it's so 48 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: sticky that it's almost impossible. 49 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 2: To ever get it off of you. And so what 50 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 2: was it? What was it? 51 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 1: He had remembered in training that they had talked about 52 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: sticky mud and like, if you're able to get out 53 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: of it, there was a special plant that he had 54 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 1: to find that was like, the juice is from that 55 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: plant he could use to get the sticky. 56 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 2: Mud off of a creature. And he couldn't remember. 57 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, it's the leaves off the purple pokey plant. Yeah, 58 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: the purple pokey plant. You don't want to touch the 59 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: poky parts, but the leaves on the purple poky plant 60 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: are really helpful. 61 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 2: In getting the sticky mud off. 62 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: So he got all his gear and started heading for 63 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: the mountain. You see, this creature that had gotten stuck 64 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: was a small and this kitty had wandered way too far. 65 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: I don't know what in the world she was thinking, 66 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: but this little kitty was stuck in the sticky mud 67 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: on a mountain, and so he needed to get there 68 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: very quickly because if it became nighttime that kitty would 69 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: be left all alone up there. Aaron started hiking as 70 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: fast as he could, but he had to be extra 71 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: careful because the mountain that he was having to go 72 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: to was full of all kinds of crazy plants that 73 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: would come alive. 74 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 2: Like some of the plants have been known to eat creatures. 75 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, some of the plants are so big and they 76 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: have these big poky leaf mouths and then they bend 77 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,799 Speaker 1: over and I'll. 78 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 2: Gobble you up. So he had to be extra careful. 79 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 1: But he also had to find the purple pokey plants 80 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: with the leaf leaves, and so he was looking around 81 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: and he couldn't find any. But oh, oh, there's a 82 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: purple pokey plant. As Aaron walked. 83 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 2: Closely, what was that, he heard a sound and hits 84 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 2: one of those chopper plants. 85 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: Hurry, run, Aaron ran and dove towards the purple pokey plant, 86 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: careful to not get poked by the pokies, and he 87 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: grabbed some of the leaves off the purple pokey plant. 88 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: But then that scary chomper plant was chomping. He had 89 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: to get out of there fast. Aaron put the leaves 90 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: in his backpack and carefully crawled away. 91 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: That was a close one. Holy smokes, Oh my gosh. 92 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 3: Who all right? 93 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: Well, he continued his exploration up to the mountain, and 94 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: he thought he was getting closer and closer, and all 95 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: of a sudd and he heard a sound. Oh, I'm 96 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 1: definitely getting closer. You see, Aaron had very good ears. 97 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: He could hear a creature from miles away, but this 98 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: one sounded very close. As he crept closer and closer, 99 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 1: careful to not disturb any of the plants that might 100 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: eat him, he finally found the kitty. 101 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 2: Oh no, all right, well, I'm here to help you. 102 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 2: Don't worry, mew mew. 103 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:39,039 Speaker 1: As Aaron knelt down and carefully picked the sticky kitty 104 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: out of the sticky mud. He used the leaves to 105 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: get the mud off of the kitty, and it worked perfectly. 106 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: You see the juice inside of those purple poky leaves. 107 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: They had something magical in them that would get anything 108 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,839 Speaker 1: sticky off, even glue, and so the sticky mud was 109 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 1: no problem for that leaf juice. All right, kitty, come 110 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: with me, we got to get you home. Aaron picked 111 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: up this little kitty and she heard. Do you know 112 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: what it means when a kitty purrs? It means she's 113 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: very happy. As Aaron walked down the rest of the mountain, 114 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: he had an idea. 115 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 2: Ooh, I wonder, kitty, do you have a home? 116 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: And the kitty shook her head. No, perfect, I've always 117 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: wanted a kitty. Aaron shouted, all right, kitty, your name 118 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: is now Sticky and I want you to come home 119 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: with me. 120 00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 2: Does that sound fun? And the kitty shook her head yes, 121 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 2: and she was so happy. 122 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: Aaron had saved the day.
