18
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 1: could not wait for this afternoon because they had been

19
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 1: waiting and counting on the days to today. Do you

20
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: know why it was such a special day. Ellie was

21
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: going to the pet store with her best friend Juliana,

22
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: and they were gonna be able to pick out a

23
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: new pet. Pets are so fun, right, do you guys

24
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: have pets? Yeah? For friends are so fun to have

25
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: because they a lot of our friends like to cuddle

26
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: and play games and just be really good for friends. Well,

27
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: she didn't have a pet yet, and she had been

28
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: looking forward to this day for a very long time,

29
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: so she worked really hard at school to earn a

30
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: special day like this. And she was waiting for her

31
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: parents to get on their shoes. I'm all ready to go.

32
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: I'll meet you in the car. Ellie raced over to

33
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: the car with her friend Julianna. They jumped in the

34
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: sea and buckled up and eagerly waited for the parents

35
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: to arrive. All right, it's time to go. The car

36
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: backed out and off they drove. This was the best day.

37
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 1: I ain't gonnakni. They were so excited. Ellie looked over

38
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: at Julianna and said, can you believe today is the day?

39
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: And Julianna said no. I couldn't sleep at all last

40
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: night because all I could think about was what kind

41
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 1: of for a friend we are going to pick out.

42
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: The drive to the pet store seemed like it took forever,

43
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: but it was actually only six minutes. When you're really

44
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 1: excited for something, sometimes it can take well, it feels

45
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: like it takes forever, but it's actually not forever. But

46
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: it felt like an eternity. As they pulled into the

47
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 1: parking spot, Ellie and Julianna jumped out of the car

48
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: with their parents and ran inside as fast as they could.

49
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: There were so many different for friends. Some had four legs,

50
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 1: some had no legs, and some were in the water

51
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: and those were not for friends, but they were great pets,

52
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: and there were so many different choices and they all

53
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: looked very fun, but Ellie couldn't quite decide. And then

54
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,079
Speaker 1: in the back, all the way in the back, in

55
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 1: the back corner, there were three for friends that were

56
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: not a normal for a friend. These were chipmunks. Ellie

57
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: and Juliana both fell in love with these three chipmunks.

58
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: They were so soft and cozy and cuddly, and they

59
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: didn't even bite because did you know chipmunks in the wild, Yeah,

60
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: I think they fight sometimes, but these chimpmunks were so

61
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: nice and I think these were gonna be their new friends.

62
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: Can we please get these? Please? Please, please, please please,

63
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: Ellie's shouted to her parents. Her parents giggled. They were

64
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: not expecting chipmunks to be the pets that they picked

65
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: out today. They were more expecting, you know, maybe a

66
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: cat or a dog or something like that. But I

67
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: guess Ellie and Julianna got to pick out today's for

68
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: a friend, and I guess they're going home with some chipmunks.

69
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 1: As they brought their chipmunks back to the car and

70
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: drove home, they were starting to think of names. And

71
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: they were thinking of names like Louis or Alvin, or

72
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: Christopher or Nancy or there were so many different fund

73
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: names that they were thinking of for these chipmunks. And

74
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: as soon as they got home, they forgot something really important.

75
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: They forgot up monk food at the pet store. So

76
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: they decided to leave the chipmunks upstairs in Ellie's bedroom

77
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: and then they were going to go back to the

78
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: pet store and get the food and come back. Well,

79
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: they hurried back to the pet store and picked out

80
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: all the things that they needed for the chipmunks, like

81
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 1: some food and some toys for them to play with.

82
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: And all the important supplies to have a happy chipmunk.

83
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 1: And by the time they got home, Ellie and Juliana

84
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 1: ran upstairs to the bedroom and something terrible happened. The

85
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: house was a complete disaster. It looked like have we

86
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: been robbed? Ellie shouted. Her parents came running inside and confirmed, yes,

87
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 1: something terrible had happened. There was clothes thrown all around,

88
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: and trash cans knocked over, and just a huge mess.

89
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: Ellie and Julianna were worried about their chipmunks and ran

90
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: upstairs checked the cage that they were in and dune done, dune,

91
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 1: Oh no, the door was left open and the chipmunks

92
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: well wait were they kidnapped or did they escape? Wait?

93
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,119
Speaker 1: Was it thieves? Or did the chipmunks make this giant mess?

94
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: And the more they thought about it and looked over

95
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: the clues in their house, sure enough, it was not

96
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: thieves that broke into their house. Nope, it was chipmunks

97
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: who made this giant mess. Oh no, Ellie said, they

98
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: must be so afraid. They've never been here before, and

99
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: they're probably really worried and nervous. We have to find

100
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: them fast. Ellie and Juliana started looking around all over

101
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: the house and they couldn't find them anywhere, but there

102
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: were a lot of hiding spots. And then who, no,

103
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:04,359
Speaker 1: do you? Leanna pointed at an open window. Do you

104
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: think they got outside? Ellie and Julianna were both scared

105
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: and sad. All of a sudden, what are we gonna do?

106
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 1: Julianna said, well, we gotta go look outside for them.

107
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: Let's go. Ellie led the way. Ellie and Julianna went

108
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: to the backyard and started looking all over. Come here, chipmunks,

109
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: Where are you? They called out to the chipmunks, but unfortunately,

110
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 1: since the chipmunks hadn't gotten a name yet, they didn't

111
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: have a name to call out, so they were just,

112
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: you know, looking for chipmunks, but they couldn't find them anywhere.

113
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,119
Speaker 1: Ellie and Julianna were starting to get a little sad,

114
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: and their parents came out to give them hugs and say,

115
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: it's okay, don't worry Ellie and Julianna. We are going

116
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: to find them. Let's come inside and have a little

117
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 1: bit of dinner, fill our tummies up, and then we'll

118
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: keep looking. Ellie and Julianna had a hard time eating

119
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: their food for dinner, because you know, they were sad

120
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: and missing their chipmunks. Have you ever felt like that before,

121
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: where you know you're a little sad or worried and

122
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: it's hard to eat your food. Yes, me too. Well,

123
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 1: it's really important to always remember that food is really

124
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: important for our bodies, and food helps us grow and

125
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: and look for those extra tricky clues. And so Ellie

126
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: and Julianna needed to fill up their tummies so that

127
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: they could get back to looking as soon as they

128
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: finished their dinner and made a happy plate. M hmm,

129
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: that was good. All right, let's keep looking. Ellie and

130
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: Julianna went outside, but it was getting a little chilly,

131
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 1: so they went upstairs to get a little jacket that would,

132
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: you know, make it not so cold outside. They put

133
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: their jack it's on upstairs, and heard a sound. Who

134
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: is that, Julianna, did you hear that? Look over here,

135
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: tucked away in the back of Ellie's closet were the

136
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: three chipmunks. I missed you so much, Ellie shouted. She

137
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: gave the three chipmunks a big hug. You see, the

138
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: chipmunks were very worried. I think they were shaking even

139
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: I think they made a big mess and they felt

140
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: very guilty about it, so they hid in the closet. Oh,

141
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: so they didn't go outside, Juliana said, all that time

142
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 1: they spent looking outside and looking all over the house,

143
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: they were actually just in the closet the whole time.

144
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: All Right, you silly chipmunks. Let's give you some names

145
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 1: so we don't lose you again, and you have to

146
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: follow the rules. Mm hmmm, let's call them. You're Alex,

147
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:15,719
Speaker 1: and your Brittany and your name is Connor. Alright, you

148
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 1: three chipmunks. Well, we have a lot of work to

149
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: do to clean up this big mess, and then we

150
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 1: need to get training you some cool tricks so that

151
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: you can be on our team. And that was the

152
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: day that Ellie and Juliana invited some new for our

153
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: friends into their house and had an amazing new day

154
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:52,320
