Are you guys ready for today's adventure? 15 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 2: Me too. Let's go. 16 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: A stomp stomp stomp quaked through town one morning, followed 17 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: by a crash. Oh there it goes Patty again, one 18 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: of the townsfolk side. They held onto their shelves of 19 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: picture frames in flower vases to keep them from tumbling 20 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: to the ground. You see, Patty the Potosaurus had just 21 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: woken up and everyone in town knew it. He was 22 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 1: the largest dinosaur and also the clumsiest. Everywhere Patty went, 23 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: he stumbled or tripped, crashed or squashed. What a beautiful morning, 24 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: exclaimed Patty as he stared up at the blue sky. 25 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: The only things above him were the birds and the airplanes. 26 00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: He waved to some as he walked, Hello. 27 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 2: Birds, high their airplane. 28 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: His head was so high in the sky he paid 29 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 1: no attention to what his feet were doing. 30 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 3: Water exploded all over the street from the fire hydrant 31 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 3: Patty had just stepped on. 32 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: Oops, Patty said. He tried to find something to stop 33 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:33,399 Speaker 1: the water from spraying all over. Here we go, Patty said, 34 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: as he uprooted a ginormous tree. 35 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 2: That should work. 36 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: The dinosaur stuck the tree inside the broken hydrant, plugging 37 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: the hole. When no water escaped for a moment, Patty 38 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: smiled in relief and continued walking. He didn't notice when 39 00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 1: the water pressure grew so strong that the tree was. 40 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 3: Launched into the air, water exploding out once more, and 41 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 3: the tree sailing through the sky until it landed upside 42 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 3: down in the middle of the town's movie theater. 43 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: The firefighter sighed when they received the call, Oh Patty, 44 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 1: what are we going to do about that dinosaur? Patty 45 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: was so hungry, so he headed to the Farmer's market 46 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: since he was too big to fit inside of a 47 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: grocery store. You see, last time he had tried his 48 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: head though, got stuck in the automatic doors for a 49 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: whole day. Ugh not a fun time. So now he's 50 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: stuck to the markets without doors or roofs Oh no, 51 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: here comes, Patty, mumbled farmer Frank. At the flower stand, 52 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: he packed up his favorite flowers and braced himself for 53 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: the dinosaur's arrival. All down the row, the other shops 54 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 1: did the same. Last week, Sally's soap stand was stomped on, 55 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: causing the dino's feet to slip and slide. You know, 56 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: soap can be pretty slippery in between your toes, and 57 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: Patty smashed into the other stands like bowling pins. Patty 58 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: spotted Letty's let us stand. 59 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:41,679 Speaker 2: Yum, I love lettuce, take every leaf. 60 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: Letty smiled and packaged it all up for him. Everything 61 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: was going well, surprisingly well, oh dear, until Patty turned around. Woo, 62 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: his tail swiped the row of behind him. 63 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 2: Oops. 64 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: Patty cried as apples flew across the market, rolling everywhere 65 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: Patty tried to get out of the way and chase 66 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: after them, but all his running around just stomped them 67 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: into apple sauce, leaving the market a sticky mess. Go home, Patty, 68 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: we will clean it up, the people shouted. Patty gathered 69 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: his lettuce and left, heading back to his home. That dinosaur, 70 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: he is nothing but trouble, yo. What are we going 71 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: to do about him? The townspeople were exhausted from their 72 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: clumsy dinosaur. They continued to grumble and groan as they 73 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: cleaned up his mess until they heard the town fire alarm. 74 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: They looked up and saw the firefighters racing towards them. 75 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: The fire truck pulled up to the market and firefighter 76 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 1: Franny jumped out. 77 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 2: Has anyone seen Patty? We need his help. 78 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: The townspeople told them what had happened and how they 79 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: just sent Paddy home. Then Franny jumped back in the 80 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: fire truck, racing after Patty. The dinosaur was moping down 81 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: the road very sad. When he heard the sirens behind him. 82 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,720 Speaker 1: He saw a firefighter waving to him as they approached. 83 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 4: Fatny, Hi, Franny, the fighter man, what's wrong? Oh dear, 84 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 4: have I stepped on another fire hydrant. Patty looked around 85 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 4: at the ground. No, no, Patty, we need your help. 86 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 4: The school took a class trip to the skyscraper and 87 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 4: the elevator broke. 88 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: They are stuck at the top and we can't reach 89 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: them with our ladders. It's too tall. The townspeople needed Patty. 90 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: They had never needed him before. There was no time 91 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: to waste. Let's go gole go gold, Patty shouted. Together, 92 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: Patty and the fire truck raced to save the kids. 93 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: The kids were worried and waiting for help. When Patty's 94 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: head Punk appeared in the window of the skyscraper. His 95 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: nose kind of bumped into the window. 96 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 2: Yay, it's Patty. 97 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: The kids all cheered for the dinosaur when they saw him. 98 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: With the firefighter's help, the students climbed onto Patty's head 99 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: and slid all the way down his long neck, to 100 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: his back, down his tail, and safely to the ground. 101 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: By the time the last student had reached the ground, 102 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: the whole town had gathered to watch this crazy event. 103 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: They were so grateful for Patty's help that they even 104 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: threw him a giant party. Everyone thanked Patty, and together 105 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: everyone decided to help make the town a little bit 106 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: more dinosaur friendly.
