9
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 1: ready for today's amazing adventure? Me Too. Let's go. Lincoln

10
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: and his family had just finished a delicious dinner. As

11
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: he helped clear off the table of all the dishes

12
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: and silverware and cups, now it was time for family

13
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: game night. They loved playing games together as a family

14
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: after dinner. What about you and your family? What do

15
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: you like to do after dinner? Maybe do some art

16
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: projects together or a game? Well, Lincoln and his family

17
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: had a ton of fun that night and as got

18
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: later later, Lincoln Yawned and stretched and asked if he

19
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: could go to bed. That's how tired he was. I

20
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 1: think if you're that tired at bed, it means that

21
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 1: you've had a really, really great day. As Lincoln was

22
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 1: getting ready for bed, he brushed his teeth get all

23
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: those sugar bugs off, got his pajamason and walked inside

24
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: of his bedroom and heard some tapping on the window.

25
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: What's that sound? Asked Lincoln. His parents looked out the

26
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: window and said, Oh my, there must be a very

27
00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: cold weather front coming in. It almost looks like sleet.

28
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: Sleep is that kind of icy rain that comes down

29
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: when it's in between rain and snow. It was pretty

30
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 1: unusual this time of year for there to be sleep there,

31
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: and that's why Lincoln's family was so surprised to see it.

32
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: After he gave everybody a good night hug, Lincoln closed

33
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: his eyes and fell asleep. The next morning he woke

34
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: up shivering. Oh Wow, I thought this blanket was warmer

35
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 1: than this. As Lincoln sat up, he realized he could

36
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: see his breath inside of his room. That is not normal.

37
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: It usually does not get that cold inside of his house.

38
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: As he called out to his family to see what

39
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:54,639
Speaker 1: was going on. Why is it so cold? And here,

40
00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: shouted Lincoln. His parents came walking around the corner then

41
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: blankets themselves. Lincoln, it's we're not sure what's going on,

42
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 1: but it's it is very cold, even inside of our house.

43
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: Look out your window, while Lincoln was sleeping the night before,

44
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: something crazy happened outside. The window was very foggy. It

45
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 1: was kind of hard to to see outside to what

46
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: they were talking about, so we rubbed the window to

47
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: make a little spot that he could peek through. And,

48
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: holly smokes, everything had been covered in ice. Lincoln ran

49
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: to the front door and opened it up. He was

50
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: greeted with a blast of very cold wind. Oh Wow,

51
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: she should have brought my blanket with me. As he

52
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: wrapped his arms around himself like he was giving himself

53
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: a hug to try and keep warm, he saw the sky.

54
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: I think that's what his parents were talking about. He

55
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: couldn't believe it. The Sky had been covered in some

56
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: kind of dome of ice. Yes, I don't know what happened,

57
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: but somehow, overnight, across their whole city it was like

58
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 1: enclosed in a giant dome of ice. Do you know

59
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:25,919
Speaker 1: what a dome is? Uh, can you imagine a snow globe? Yeah,

60
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 1: a snow globe is like that. You know there might

61
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: be something inside and then when you shake it up,

62
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: the snow rattles around and yeah, Snow Globe. Somehow, overnight

63
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: his city had turned into some kind of ice globe,

64
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 1: but he could see that the ice on the globe

65
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 1: was getting thicker and thicker by the second. Oh No,

66
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: said Lincoln. If it keeps like if that ice keeps growing,

67
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: what if it completely phrases our whole town into ice?

68
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: A hikes? That will be super duper cold. I cannot

69
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: let that happen. Lincoln ran upstairs to grab his walkie talkie. Guys,

70
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: are you there? He was calling out to some of

71
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: his neighborhood friends that also had some walkie talkies. Sh Lincoln,

72
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: holy but it's cold. Yeah, I know it's cold. Um,

73
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 1: put some warm clothes on and meet me in my

74
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 1: front yard right now. Over and out. Lincoln and a

75
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 1: few of his friends dressed very warmly. They had many

76
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: layers of warm clothes and pants and socks and boots

77
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: and hats and gloves and scarves and everything that you

78
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: would need to go outside in a frozen world. Friends

79
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: were running out of time, said Lincoln. We need to

80
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: find a way to melt through the ice on the

81
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:59,159
Speaker 1: Dome in the sky, or else we're doomed. Do any

82
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 1: of you have ideas of how we could do that?

83
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: Asked Lincoln. One of his friends raised his hand and said, well,

84
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: what if we made a fire? He could build a

85
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 1: ginormous fire that melts the ice. That's a good idea,

86
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: said Lincoln. I'm just not sure if our fire will

87
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,919
Speaker 1: be tall enough to melt the ice on the dome.

88
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 1: M Any other ideas? One of his other friends cautiously

89
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: raised his hand and said, Um, what about a flame thrower?

90
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: A flame thrower, shouted Lincoln in excitement. Yes, UM, like,

91
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: I've seen those flame throwers where. Yeah, I don't know

92
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: how to make one, but it launches the flame out

93
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: and kind of shoots it out. I wonder if we

94
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: could aim it at the ice and maybe you would

95
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: melt a hole in it and let out all this

96
00:06:55,440 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 1: cold air. I love it. Let's make a fly amethrower.

97
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 1: Holy smokes, that sounds like an incredibly dangerous idea that

98
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 1: you should definitely not try at home. But Lincoln and

99
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: his friends, they were determined to save their city from

100
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 1: this ice globe that was freezing them by the second hand.

101
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: Me That Garden hose over there, shouted Lincoln. Oh, and

102
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: I need those spoons. Give me those spoons over there.

103
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: They were building something that would hopefully help melt all

104
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 1: of that ice. They were running out of time because

105
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: that ice was getting closer and closer. It was getting

106
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: closer to phrasing the entire town into a giant ice ball. Okay,

107
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: we don't have any more time. Everyone help me turn

108
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: this thing on. Lincoln carried it. It was really heavy

109
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: and he pointed it up at the sky all right,

110
00:07:53,240 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: on the out of three. One, two, three. The sound

111
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: of the flame was very loud and bright and hot

112
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: instantly and melted a hole up in the sky. Remember,

113
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: the sky had this big ice dome all around them

114
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: and their giant flamethrower melted part of that ice to

115
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 1: let some of the cold air out. It's working keep

116
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 1: it going. The rest of the afternoon Lincoln and his

117
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: friends spent melting that giant ice dome that was up

118
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: in the sky that was trying to freeze them, and

119
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: by the end of the day all the ice had melted.

120
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 1: Lincoln and his friends had saved the day and even

121
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: though this is the end of that story, I think

122
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 1: it's just the beginning of their amazing adventures that lie

123
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:08,719
Speaker 1: ahead of protecting their town the end. Great job. You

124
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: listened all the way to the end and you know

125
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: what some of it is it's time for kid shout out.
