Speaker 2: Are you guys ready for today's adventure? Me too, Let's go.

11
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,880
Speaker 2: It was a beautiful day deep in the ocean as

12
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 2: Josie the Mermaid was swimming around with all of her friends.

13
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 2: They were playing a game of kind of like hide

14
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: and seek tag but underwater. They could play that game

15
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: because they could.

16
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: Breathe underwater, which I don't think I would be very

17
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:09,320
Speaker 1: good at hiding underwater for obvious reasons. Well, Josie was

18
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: really good and she was hiding and having a ton

19
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: of fun. But something terrible was about to happen. Okay,

20
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 1: I have gotta find a new place to hide where

21
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: no one has ever hid before. After you play hide

22
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: and seek for a long time. It seems like you

23
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: run out of places to hide because everyone's picked the

24
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,839
Speaker 1: good ones. Right, Yeah, that's what Josie was thinking about,

25
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,279
Speaker 1: and she was trying to figure out a new place

26
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: where she could hide. Wait a second, nobody's hid over

27
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: there on the other side of the breakers. Hold on, Josie,

28
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: wha whah, whoah, woa wh I don't think you should

29
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: go over there. Do you know what breakers are or

30
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: breaker waves? Yeah, those are those big waves that you

31
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: can see crash down in the ocean, and sometimes like

32
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: surfers go on the waves. Yeah. Well, to be over there,

33
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: that is, it's a pretty dangerous area to swim around underwater.

34
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: But Josie's desire to win the game kind of clouded

35
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 1: her judgment a little bit. All right, I'm gonna go

36
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: over there. They'll never find me. As Josie the Mermaid

37
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: swam as fast and hard as she could because the

38
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: water in the current was really hard to move around.

39
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: She was swimming and pushing her way to the other

40
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: side of the breakers. Crash crash. As the waves crashed

41
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: down above her head, it was really hard for her

42
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: to see. But she thought that would be a perfect

43
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: hiding place because then no one could see her amidst

44
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: all that bubbly water. And she was right, she had

45
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: basically turned invisible. But I don't think it was worth it.

46
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: As all of her friends were swimming around and people

47
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: were getting fed, and one by one, everyone was popping

48
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 1: out from their hiding places. Pretty soon Josie was the

49
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 1: only one left. Only she was in a place where

50
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: she couldn't hear them, and so as all of her

51
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: friends were calling out for Josie to come on out,

52
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:20,839
Speaker 1: she did not know where did Josie go? Said? One

53
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: for friends? And why isn't she responding?

54
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 2: We're screaming, Josie, game over, you one.

55
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: Come on out, and her friends were starting to get

56
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: a little worried as if maybe Josie was hurt. Okay,

57
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: we've got to split up. We've got to find her

58
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 1: because something is not right, something must be wrong. Hurry.

59
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: As all the fish and mermaids and sea turtles split up,

60
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: they all went looking for Josie. Meanwhile, Josie was still

61
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 1: hiding by some rocks over by the breaker waves. She

62
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: was holding on for your life because those waves and

63
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: the water current were really powerful. But she was very

64
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: strong and was not going to let go. When all

65
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: of a sudden, one of those big rocks got bumped

66
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: from a big crashing wave and ow, shouted Josie. The

67
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: rock landed right on her tail. She is stuck, stuck

68
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: in the rocks. Dunk, dun dum. She started to cry

69
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: out for help, help, help, but since she was in

70
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 1: the breaker waves, nobody could hear her, except there was

71
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: one one creature that had very good hearing. Josie, is

72
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: that you? Yes, who's over there? I need help? I

73
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: got stuck over here, shouted Josie, And just then it

74
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 1: was Nick the sea turtle. Oh see you're stuck under here.

75
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,840
Speaker 1: We've been so afraid that you got hurt. All right,

76
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 1: I will help you. As Nick swam down towards the rocks,

77
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: he pushed his nose against the big rock and tried

78
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: to swim and push with all of his might, but

79
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: the rock was too big. All right, Josie, just hang on.

80
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try and get a swimming start and see

81
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: if I can bawl thoze over this rock off your tail,

82
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: and then we gotta get out of here fast. I

83
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,359
Speaker 1: think there's a storm coming in, said Nick. Okay, just

84
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: hurry my tail is really hurting, said Josie, and Nick

85
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: swam off. He was a very big sea turtle, and

86
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: he swam off to get as fast running start, and

87
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: there he goes and then poo as he crashed into

88
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: the rock. The rock went flying off of Josie's tail

89
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: and she was able to wiggle her way out. You

90
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 1: did it, Nick, said Josie, as they both swam away

91
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 1: from the breaker waves. Her friends were waiting up ahead Josie.

92
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: They shouted, what happened? Where have you been? We've been

93
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 1: looking everywhere for you. Josie looked over at Nick and said, well,

94
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: I was hiding by the breaker waves. I know I

95
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: probably shouldn't go over there because it's not safe, but

96
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: I got stuck after a rock fell on my tail,

97
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: and then Nick he helped me get out, and then

98
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: all the sea creatures started chanting Nick's name because he

99
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: saved the day. Wouldn't that be awesome to save or

100
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: help someone that's in need?

101
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 2: Right?

102
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of wish that I was like Nick

103
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,279
Speaker 1: that saved the day, kind of like a superhero. Well,

104
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 1: if you ever see a friend that is in need

105
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: of help, maybe maybe they're not stuck underneath a rock

106
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: in the water, but maybe they're just at the playground

107
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 1: and they need help. You can be a superhero just

108
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: like Nick the sea turtle and save the day the end.

109
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: Great job, you listened all the way to the end,

110
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 1: and you know what time it is. It's time for

111
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: Jude shout outs. I wanna say hey to Raffi and
