Speaker 1: awesome adventure. Are you ready for this one? Me too?

8
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: Let's go. One day, Alex was playing in his backyard.

9
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: It was a beautiful summer day. And guess what, Yeah,

10
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: he was on the Spy Kids team. But he wasn't

11
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 1: just a spy kid. He was on the Ninja squad.

12
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: And on the Ninja squad they had to learn how

13
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: to do back flips and flip flips and all kinds

14
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,239
Speaker 1: of crazy things that ninjas know how to do. I

15
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 1: don't know how to do them, but Alex learned how

16
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: to do all of those things and so much more.

17
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 1: But today was just a normal day, and so he

18
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 1: was hanging out in his backyard eating blackberries. Do you

19
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 1: guys like to eat blackberries? Oh? Meat too, They're so good.

20
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: And he had all kinds of BlackBerry bushes right in

21
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 1: his backyard that he could eat. And so today was

22
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: a really nice day, and so he thought he would

23
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: go eat some blackberries. He checked his spy kids Ninja

24
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: Squad Peeper, but there were no bad guys out today,

25
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: so that's good. It'll be a nice relaxing day, or

26
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 1: so he thought. And so pretty soon he ate all

27
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 1: the blackberries and he asked his mom if he could

28
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: go explore in the forest to look for more blackberries,

29
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 1: and his mom said yes, but stay close. And so

30
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: as he was walking around, he heard boom, boom boom.

31
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: What was that? Something big was walking in the forest.

32
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: It was a It's a bear. Ah. Alex had seen

33
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,919
Speaker 1: bears before and was always told to stay far away

34
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: from them, but this one looked very different. He was

35
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: he was extra fluffy, really fluffy. M Is he an

36
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: normal bear? Oh? WHI there? He can talk? Alex said, hello,

37
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: mr bear, My name is Alex. You can talk? Why?

38
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 1: Of course I can talk. My name is Buffy and

39
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: the bear, and I'm looking for blackberries and apples. Do

40
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 1: you happen to know where any blackberries and apples are?

41
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: I was looking for the same thing, Alex said, Do

42
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: you think we could look for the blackberries and apples together?

43
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: That would be perfect I'm very hungry. My tummy has

44
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:11,959
Speaker 1: been a rumbling and we must fill it up or

45
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: else I might die. You see, Buffy the Bear was

46
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: kind of dramatic, and I don't think he was gonna

47
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 1: die if he didn't need some blackberries right now. But

48
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 1: Alex thought it would be fun and hopped on top

49
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: of Buffy the bears back, here we go, bubo. As

50
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: the two of them bumbled through the forest looking for

51
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: more apples and blackberries, they stumbled across a delicious patch

52
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: of BlackBerry bushes. Yes, these looks so good, and they

53
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: started to gobble him up as fast as they could.

54
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: This might be the best BlackBerry bush I've ever tasted.

55
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna eat the entire thing. Oh yeah, Buffy the

56
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: bear he burped a lot. After they ate all the

57
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: blackberries out of that bush. M that was Oh, that

58
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: was so good. Alex said, what was that? Oh, I

59
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 1: think that's my Ninja squad. Deeper. Hold on, let me

60
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: check it. He pulled it out and it had a

61
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: message for him. It said, Alex, we need your help.

62
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: The Frogman and his team they're headed your way. Supposedly,

63
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 1: there's an apple in your forest that if you eat

64
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: it it will turn you invisible. We cannot let the

65
00:04:55,600 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: Frogman and his team have that super secret skill. They're

66
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: already dangerous enough already. So we need you to go

67
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: find the apple. There's only one, and it's purple with

68
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: yellow spots. Good luck, Alex, Buffy the Bear, did you

69
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: hear that? I guess there's this really important apple in

70
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: the middle of the forest, and we gotta find it

71
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 1: before the Frogman and his team. Do you know the

72
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 1: frogman and his team? Um no, I've I've never heard

73
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: of them. Well, they do crazy things. They can stick

74
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: to the walls and run up and if they could

75
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: turn invisible, that would be that would not be good.

76
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: They like to eat doughnuts and other sweet things, and

77
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: so we can't let them get this invisible turning purple

78
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: yellow apple. We gotta find it. Hurry. Okay, let's go,

79
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: Buffy the Bear said. As they raced through the forest,

80
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: Alex as searching everywhere for apple trees. They found a

81
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 1: lot of apple trees, but all the apples are red

82
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: or yellow or green. Where in the world are we

83
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: gonna find a purple one with yellow spots? Ah, this

84
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 1: is gonna be harder than I thought. Alex thought to himself.

85
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: Pretty soon, they stumbled across a tree that looked very strange,

86
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: and in the distance they heard a sound. That's the Frogman.

87
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 1: He's getting closer. Hurry, Wait, what what is that? Oh

88
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: that looks like a delicious apple. Oh that's it. Hits

89
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: the purple one with yellow spots. Oh great, I'm very hungry. Wait,

90
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: Buffy the Mayor, don't eat it. It's gonna turn you. Ah.

91
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: Oh no, Buffy the Bear eight the invisible apple. It

92
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: turned Buffy to bear invisible. Buffy, where did you go?

93
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: Alex said, why, I'm right here. What seems to be

94
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: the problem? Um, Buffy, Uh, look at your hands, but

95
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: don't scream. Buffy the Bear just realized that he had

96
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: turned invisible. I am so sorry. Alerts. I was very

97
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: hungry and I forgot that we were just supposed to

98
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: find the apple and not eat it. Whoops. All right, well,

99
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: at least the Frogman and his team they're not going

100
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: to get it. But now we need to figure out

101
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: how to turn you back to normal. He ha ha ha.

102
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: They're getting closer. Lovey, we gotta get out of here.

103
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: Let's go. Alex hopped on the back of Buffy the

104
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: Bear and they raced through the forest to get back

105
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: to Alex's house. As they got into his backyard, Alex

106
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: ran inside and said, Mom, Mom, I found this bear

107
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: and he helped me find all these delicious blackberries and

108
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: apples in the forest. But then he turned invisible, and

109
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: I need your help. That's a fun story, Alex. Um,

110
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: but I'm I'm kind of busy right now, and so

111
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna need to figure that out on your own,

112
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: all right. Oh no, I don't think my mom believes me. Wait, Mom,

113
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: just just come look, just come look look outside. Oh

114
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: wait a second. Oh no, Alex has remembered. The bear

115
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 1: is invisible. There's nothing to see. How on the world.

116
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: All right, Alex, you go play outside and uh you

117
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: go solve that invisible bear. Good luck. I can't believe it.

118
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: No one's ever gonna believe me. There's an invisible bear

119
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: in my backyard, but no one can see it. All right,

120
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:19,079
Speaker 1: let's call into the Spy Kids headquarters. Ninja Squad, Ninja Squad,

121
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 1: Ninja Squad, come in over. Yeah, Alex, what seems to

122
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: be the problem. Did you find that apple? Yes, we

123
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: found the apple, but unfortunately my friend Buffy, the bear

124
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: accidentally ate the whole thing and is now invisible. What

125
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: the ninja squad said, Oh gosh, okay, okay, it's it's okay.

126
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 1: Now the antidote for that, you need to go find

127
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: yellow blackberries. There's what Alex had never heard of or seen,

128
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: yellow black bears. Yeah, they're out there, they're just hard

129
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: to find. Um, but let us know when you do over. Now, Buffy,

130
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: we gotta find yellow blackberries so that you're not invisible anymore.

131
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: And so they started to search through all the bushes

132
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: and pretty soon there's one. Where is it excuse excuse you, Buffy?

133
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: That was You can't just burpt like that. I'm sorry.

134
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 1: I get a little gassy when i'm scared. All right,

135
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:40,079
Speaker 1: here's some yellow blackberries. You eat them and they will

136
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: be delicious and it will fix you from being invisible. Okay,

137
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 1: here you go, Buffy the Bear eight the yellow blackberries,

138
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 1: and he magically reappeared or I'm back. And so that

139
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: is the craziest venture of Alex and Buffy the Bear

140
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: who stopped the Frogman on his team from getting that

141
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: silly invisible apple. The end
