17
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: guys ready for today's adventure? Me too? Let's go get backwards.

18
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: We're heading to a town where everything is backwards. Let's go.

19
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: Jordan's loved to go on adventures. Do you like to

20
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 1: go on adventures, you probably do. I love to go

21
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: on adventures. And Jordan's was an explorer who had all

22
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: these old, old maps, maps that would take him to

23
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: places that, you know, not many people have ever been to.

24
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 1: And today he opened up an old, old map that

25
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 1: would take him too backwards town. Have you ever heard

26
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: of backwards town? Holy smokes, it's crazy. It's a place

27
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: where everything is backwards. When people say goodbye, they mean hello,

28
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: or if they say welcome, they goodbye. It's very confusing.

29
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: And if people are I mean, maybe that means they're

30
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: being nice. And I don't know. It's very confusing. And

31
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 1: Jordan has never been there before, and I don't know

32
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 1: if he knows all of what we know. But let's

33
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: hop in and see what happens. Jordan was walking down

34
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 1: a gravel road and following this road that was on

35
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: this map he was. He had this map for a

36
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: very long time, but it had never explored this particular adventure,

37
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: and he was really looking forward to this one because

38
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,079
Speaker 1: he had heard of this backwards town before, but he

39
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: had never been there, and he didn't really know what

40
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: that meant of a backwards town. He thought, maybe maybe

41
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: you know, people walk backwards or maybe um, I don't know. Well,

42
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 1: he wanted to go check it out. As he was

43
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 1: walking down the trail, he finally lead to a gate

44
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: and the gate said do not enter. Oh this must

45
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: not be where you enter, Jordan's said, or so he thought.

46
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: He followed this railing in this fence around that was

47
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: going like around the city, and he shouted over to somebody,

48
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 1: hello over there, and the person said, hello over there,

49
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: can you help me? Oh? Sure? That person jogged over

50
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: and it was it was a girl. Her name was Lucy. Hi,

51
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: my name's Lucy, and uh, what do you What are

52
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: you doing over here? Oh? My name is Jordan's. It's

53
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: nice to meet you, Lucy. Well, I was coming over

54
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: here to visit the town and I've I've never been

55
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: here before, and I went over to that gate, but

56
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: it said don't enter there, and Lucy said, oh, yeah,

57
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: that's right. You're not supposed to enter through that door.

58
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: Oh okay. Jordan laughed and he said, okay, so how

59
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: do I get in? And Lucy said again, you're not

60
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: supposed to enter through that door. Why she keep saying

61
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: the same thing? And Jordan's thought to himself, wait a

62
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: second backwards town, backwards sound backwards, and maybe maybe I

63
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: get it. Jordan's had just realized that the gate said

64
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: do not enter, which I think in backwards hound means

65
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: you should definitely enter this way, And so Jordan walked

66
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: back over to the gate and opened it, and Lucy

67
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: met him on the other side. Hey, Jordan's, wow, Hi, Lucy,

68
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 1: that's funny. I've never been to backwards town before, and

69
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 1: I just didn't understand how it worked. Oh well, I'm

70
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,479
Speaker 1: glad you're in. And I mean, well, I'm not glad

71
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 1: you're in, said Lucy. Jordan laughed, this is gonna be funny,

72
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: all right, So Lucy, can you wait? Can you not

73
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: show me around town and not show me what everything

74
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: is like in here? And Lucy said, I will most

75
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: gladly not show you around town. Don't follow me. This

76
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 1: is gonna be very confusing, Jordan's said to himself as

77
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: he started following Lucy around the town, because remember she

78
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: said don't follow, which in backwards town means to follow her.

79
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 1: He was amazed that everything that was backwards in the town.

80
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 1: You see cars drove above them, above the road upside

81
00:05:53,040 --> 00:06:00,040
Speaker 1: down and backwards like in reverse. Very strange, and the

82
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: birds flew backwards so their heads were they couldn't ever

83
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 1: see where they were going, so the birds always bumped

84
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: into things, and about Jordan's got a bird right in

85
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: the face, and Lucy said, oh, I'm sorry about that.

86
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: Jordan's sorry. The birds they never know where they're going

87
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: around here, and they always bump into things. But just

88
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: help it back up and he'll be on his way.

89
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,799
Speaker 1: Jordan picked up the bird and turned him around and

90
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: and tossed them up in the air, and the bird

91
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 1: kept flying. As they continued walking and exploring through the city.

92
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 1: Everything was very confusing to Jordan's and it would be

93
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: very confusing to me. It's even confusing to tell you

94
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 1: this story about this backwards town where everything is backwards. Well,

95
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:56,239
Speaker 1: Lucy said, don't look over there. You see over there

96
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,359
Speaker 1: there is a man who had does not have a

97
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: secret key, and the secret key does not open a

98
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: door that does lock, and you won't get stuck if

99
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: you don't have the key. What Jordan did not understand

100
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: anything of what she just said, but she said, don't okay,

101
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: maybe I'll go talk to that guy about this key

102
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: that he has. He walked over to the man behind

103
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: us stand and said, Hi, do you have a key?

104
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: And the man said I do not have a key.

105
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: Oh that's funny, okay, So uh, sir um, can you

106
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: not give me the key that you don't have? Why?

107
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: Certainly not? As he handed Jordan the key, Ha ha,

108
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: Jordan is figuring out how this backwards life works. Maybe

109
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: you should give it a try. Maybe today could be

110
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: backwards a As Jordan's put the key in his pocket,

111
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: he followed a trail that the old man said to

112
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: not follow. And he followed this trail back to a

113
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: door and the key fit right in the lock and

114
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: opened the door. Inside was a room full of candy

115
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: that said eat this candy. Oh no, what is Jordan's

116
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 1: supposed to do? If it's said to eat it? Wait

117
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 1: and he's in backwards town? Does that mean he should

118
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: eat it or should not eat it? Yeah, Jordan's don't

119
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: eat it. Don't eat it. But Jordans forgot where he

120
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: was and he ate a piece of the candy and

121
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: just like that, it knocked him out. He fell fast asleep.

122
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,839
Speaker 1: Who has he woke up later? He was very confused.

123
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: You see, this candy was the kind of candy. Debt

124
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 1: erases memories and erases. It erased Jordan's memory of where

125
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: he was, and so as he woke up, he did

126
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: not remember that he was in backwards town. This sounds

127
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: like he's in a lot of trouble. All right? How

128
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: do I get out of here? All right? Where am I?

129
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: How do I get home? He remembered that he was

130
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: on some kind of adventure, He just didn't remember, you know,

131
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: where he was. But as he opened the door and

132
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: stepped outside, he was very confused to see again the

133
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: birds that were flying backwards, the cars that were upside

134
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: down and above him, and all these very confusing things.

135
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: He walked up to a a girl who was standing there.

136
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: It was Lucy, but he didn't remember her. And he said, uh, hey, um,

137
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: my name is Jordan's and what's going on here? And

138
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: Lucy said, oh, it is not good to see you again.

139
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 1: Uh you didn't go in there, did you? Huh? Jordan

140
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: was very confused. You must uh you're not supposed to

141
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: be here. You must go, Lucy said. And Jordan was

142
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: very confused and walked away, and Lucy ran after him

143
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 1: and said, do you forget where you are? Remember this

144
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 1: is backwards down, everything's backwards oh, Jordan did not remember

145
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 1: I need uh, I don't need your help? Can you

146
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 1: not help me get home? You see, Jordans had become

147
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: very lost and really needed help. I will not help you,

148
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: said Lucy, and the rest us of a day, Lucy

149
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: helped Jordan's get back home. That was a crazy story

150
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 1: where everything was backwards. Right, Yeah, that would be a

151
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 1: really confusing place if we lived in a backwards world,

152
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 1: but it's sometimes fun to pretend that for a little bit. Well,

153
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: I hope you guys have a super fun day and
