Levi and Ivy were enjoying a wonderful week 15 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 3: at sleep away camp with some friends, swimming in nature 16 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 3: activities during the day, s'mores and campfires at night. They 17 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,279 Speaker 3: made lots of great friends the year before who they 18 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 3: were so happy to see again that summer. 19 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: And one thing the campers liked most. 20 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 3: Of all that the counselors weren't always aware of, was 21 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 3: sneaking candy into their cabins when it was time for bed. 22 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 3: All that sugar right before bed helped to keep the 23 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 3: campers up extra late to make more memories, tell more jokes, 24 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 3: and have more fun. The camp had a candy vending machine, 25 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 3: but the campers were only allowed to use it once 26 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 3: or twice during the week and had strict instructions not 27 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 3: to overdo it. So that's why some of the campers 28 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 3: would bring a few extra sweet treats along with them 29 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 3: from home. So on the first night of camp, when 30 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 3: everyone was supposed to be getting ready for bed, Levia 31 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 3: Ivy and a few of their camp friends decided to 32 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 3: see what tasty sweet treats they had managed to pack 33 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 3: away in their bags for the week. They volunteered to 34 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 3: help clean up the mess hall that night so they 35 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 3: could all be together and have a little after dinner 36 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 3: snack before bed. Each camper showed up in the mess 37 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 3: hall after running back to their cabins, holding a bag 38 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 3: in their hands filled with some type of chocolate, gummy 39 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: or candy snack. Okay, the last counselor just went into 40 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 3: their cabin, said Harry. He was looking out for the campers. 41 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 3: The other campers had been hurrying around throwing away paper 42 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 3: plates and napkins and sweeping up crumbs from last night's 43 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 3: welcome dinner. Once they were all done, They each took 44 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 3: their sweet treat bag and dumped them out one by 45 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 3: one on the mess hall tables. 46 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: It was amazing. 47 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 3: Every candy you could imagine sat in a huge pile 48 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 3: before them. They just stared at the sweet mountain of 49 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 3: sugar for a few seconds, not saying a single word. 50 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 3: Until this all is even better than last year, whispered Levi. 51 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 3: What do you say we each just have one piece tonight, 52 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 3: so we have lots left for the rest of the week, 53 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 3: suggested Harry. Sure, I think we could have just one piece, 54 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 3: said Ivy, sounding a bit I'm sure. 55 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: But I don't know if we should. She looked at 56 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: Levi with a worried look on her face. 57 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 3: As much as Levi and Ivy loved candy, they weren't sure, 58 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 3: after what had happened to them last summer, that they 59 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 3: should eat any more. Harry and the other campers didn't 60 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 3: need to think twice, and each grabbed their favorite piece 61 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 3: of candy. I can't make any promises that I can 62 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 3: stop at one piece. 63 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: Giggled Harry as he chomped down on a chocolate bar. 64 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: But I'll try. 65 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 3: Casey grabbed a package of gummy worms and Troy scooped 66 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 3: up some gumballs. As they enjoyed their treats, they couldn't 67 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 3: help but notice that Levi and Ivy still hadn't made 68 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 3: their choice. What's wrong, Levi and Ivy asked Troy. So 69 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 3: much great stuff? You can't make a decision. I understand too, 70 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 3: But you need to pick something soon. So we could 71 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 3: head back to our bunks, whispered Casey. The counselors will 72 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 3: be checking on us in a little while. It's not 73 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 3: that Levi began, as he looked at Ivy. Yeah, it's 74 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 3: not that we can't make a decision, she said. It's 75 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 3: that we don't know if we should make a decision. 76 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 3: Sometimes too much candy is just too much, you know. 77 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 3: Levi and Ivy's friend stopped chewing and stared at their friends. 78 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 3: They had no idea what Ivy meant. There's no such 79 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 3: thing as too much candy, said Harry. I get DIBs 80 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 3: on Levi's candy if he's not eating any this week, 81 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 3: said Casey quickly. Oh, good idea, I want Ivy's. I 82 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 3: get Ivy's, said Troy quickly. If that's okay with you, Ivy. 83 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 3: That's when Levi and Ivy took a seat at the tables. 84 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 3: Come on, you have to tell us why you don't 85 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 3: want any candy, said Harry as he Troy, and Casey 86 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 3: followed Levi and Ivy to the table. Do you remember 87 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 3: last year when on the last night of camp, LEVI 88 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 3: and I got caught eating candy? 89 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: Began Ivy. 90 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 3: Well before we left that next morning, one of the 91 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 3: counselors told us a story about a camper that used 92 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 3: to go. 93 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,919 Speaker 1: Here years and years ago. 94 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, he told us about this girl who ate a 95 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 3: ton of candy one night and got transported to this 96 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 3: place called Sweet Wonderland. 97 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: Continued Levi. 98 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 3: That sounds awesome, said Harry, interrupting LEVI. I know I'd 99 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 3: like to go there, laughed Casey. A whole wonderland may 100 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 3: completely I have sweets. 101 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: What could be better? 102 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 3: Well, that's just it, said Ivy. It wasn't such a 103 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 3: great place. The counselor told us it was ruled by 104 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 3: a mean queen and a bunch of candy guards that 105 00:04:58,680 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 3: did anything. 106 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: She asked. We didn't have. 107 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 3: Time to tell all of you about it before we'd left, 108 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 3: but I think it's important that we tell you now, 109 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 3: said Levi. So sit down and listen to the tale 110 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 3: of Alice in Sweet Wonderland. Levi and Ivy gathered their 111 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 3: friends close and told them the story as they had 112 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 3: been told last summer, a story that sounded sweet, but 113 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 3: it had a sour side too. So it all started 114 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 3: when Alice arrived at camp in the summer of nineteen 115 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 3: ninety seven. 116 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: Oh, this story takes place in the nineteen hundreds. 117 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 3: Said Harry. I know, added Ivy. It's practically one hundred 118 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 3: years ago. Alice loved sweets, but was also a Roof follower. 119 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 3: She knew that she could only get one or two 120 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,679 Speaker 3: sweet treats from the vendee machine for the whole week, 121 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 3: and was always worried that the treats she wanted would 122 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 3: be sold out when her time came to buy something. 123 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 3: The vending machines were in the same place today that 124 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 3: they were in the nineteen nineties, right there in. 125 00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 1: The corner of the mess hall. 126 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 3: Ellis would often walk by the venue machine over and 127 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 3: over during breakfast, lunch, and dinner, just checking to make 128 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 3: sure that her favorite chocolate bar was still there. It 129 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 3: was filled with caramel and dotted with crunchy cookie pieces 130 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 3: on the outside. 131 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: They called it a dream bar. 132 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 3: Alice would sometimes stare at the row of dream bars 133 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 3: in the vending machine for so long she would be 134 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 3: the last person left in the mess hall, meaning all 135 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 3: of the other campers had moved on to their next 136 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 3: activity or off to the campfire area after dinner, and 137 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 3: Alice would be alone in the mess hall, dreaming of 138 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 3: her dream bar. And that's exactly what happened one very 139 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 3: strange and peculiar night. As Alice snapped back into reality, 140 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 3: she noticed that all her friends had gone and she 141 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 3: was all alone. She hurried back to her table, grabbed 142 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 3: her tray, and was heading to the garbage to throw 143 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 3: out her plate and napkin. But while looking at the 144 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 3: vending machine, she missed. 145 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: The blob of putting on the floor. She slipped on 146 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 1: it and banged right into the venue machine. 147 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 3: This caused the whole machine to rattle and a bunch 148 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 3: of candy to fall out, one of them being a 149 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 3: dream bar. Any camper's dream, right, well not for Alice. 150 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 3: She was very torn. She didn't want to break the rules, 151 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 3: but she wanted that dream bar so badly. Her hunger 152 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 3: for chocolate, caramel and crunchy cookie pieces got the better 153 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 3: of her, and she ate the dream bar, and once 154 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 3: she started, she couldn't stop. She ate another candy bar, 155 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 3: and then another and another. 156 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: Before she knew as she had eaten all. 157 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 3: The candy that fell out of the machine, she felt 158 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 3: terrible in. 159 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: More ways than one. 160 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 3: I broke the rules, I ate all this candy I 161 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 3: didn't pay for, and now I have a bad stomach ache, 162 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 3: whispered Alice to herself. 163 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: What am I gonna do now? 164 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 3: One thing she knew for sure that she didn't want 165 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 3: to make the situation worse. She made up her mind 166 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 3: that she was going to tell her counselor. She started 167 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 3: to walk towards the door that led out of the 168 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 3: mess hall. When she started to feel dizzy. It felt 169 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 3: as if the room was spinning, and then the lights 170 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 3: began to flicker. What is going on, Alice shouted, but 171 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 3: as she opened her mouth, she. 172 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: Couldn't hear anything at all. She closed her. 173 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 3: Eyes and hoped for the best, but when she opened them, 174 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 3: she got the surprise of a lifetime. 175 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: Where am i? Alice said? As she stood up from 176 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: the ground. 177 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 3: At first she thought her hands were covered in dirt, 178 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 3: and when she went to brush them off, but the 179 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 3: closer she looked she noticed that it was cookie crumbs. 180 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 3: What is going on, Alice thought of she took a 181 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 3: closer look at everything in its new world. That's when 182 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 3: she saw the grass wasn't really grass, but rather green licorice. 183 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 3: The trees weren't covered in bark, but instead covered in chocolate. 184 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: The breeze that wrestled the. 185 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 3: Paper candy leaves above wasn't just cool and refreshing, but 186 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 3: it smelt like fresh bake cookies. At that moment, Alice 187 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,319 Speaker 3: realized her stomach didn't hurt anymore. As the breeze blew, 188 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,679 Speaker 3: it swayed fond flowers of every color you could imagine. 189 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: Tiny candy bubblebees. 190 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 3: Collected sugar crystals from each one as they buzzed around 191 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 3: Alice's head. Gumball rocks covered the path Alice walked down 192 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 3: as it curved around the shore of a caramel river, 193 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 3: And just as Alice thought nothing could be better, she 194 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 3: saw it. A dream bar tree, her favorite candy of 195 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 3: all times, sat on tiny candy cane branches, just. 196 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 1: Ready to be enjoyed. 197 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 3: Alice walked up slowly, still not totally sure what was happening. 198 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 3: If this is a dream, it's the best dream. I've 199 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 3: ever had, said Alice to herself. 200 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 1: I hope I. 201 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 3: Don't wake up anytime soon, but as soon as I do, 202 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 3: I'll tell my counselor what happened in the vending machine. 203 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 3: Alice reached down and pulled up a handful of licorice grass, 204 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 3: picked a fonded flower, and even dipped one of the 205 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 3: candy cane branches in the Carmel River to. 206 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: Give it a quick taste. 207 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 3: She spun around from place to place in this sweet, 208 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 3: magical world, humming a song to herself. She thought no 209 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 3: one else was around until she stopped spinning and found 210 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 3: herself face to face with two kids about her age. 211 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 3: Now this is where it gets weird, said Levi. The 212 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 3: counselor who told us this story, said. The two kids 213 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 3: she met there were named Levi and Ivy. Weird, right, 214 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 3: said Ivy. Harry Casey and Troy were so focused on 215 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 3: the story that they could only nod their heads in agreement. 216 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: But what happened next, asked Casey. 217 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 3: Alice was surprised at first, but also quite relieved to 218 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 3: see some other kids. After the shock of finding some 219 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 3: friends in this wonderful place, she quickly asked their names 220 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 3: and introduced herself. Hi, Alice, said Levi as emotion for 221 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 3: her to join him in. Ivy behind a tall tree, 222 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 3: dripping in sweet honey and covered in marzipan mushrooms. Were 223 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 3: so happy we found you, said Ivy, with a less 224 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 3: than convincing smile on her face. She looked a bit scared, 225 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 3: and her voice trembled a bit. What do you mean 226 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 3: you're happy that you found me? Is there someone else 227 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 3: here looking for me? Alice chuckled, but she saw right 228 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 3: away that Levi and Ivy weren't laughing. This place may 229 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 3: look amazing, began Levi, but it's not all sugar and sweets. 230 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 3: We all need to get out of here right away. 231 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 3: Alice's smile turned into a frown as Ivy kept talking. 232 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 3: This place is called Sweet Wonderland. It's ruled by a 233 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 3: very mean queen, said Ivy. She has a bunch of 234 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 3: guards that follow her around and do anything she asks. 235 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 3: She has a glass ball she uses to see into 236 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 3: the real world. When she finds someone that really, really 237 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 3: really likes candy, she makes it so that they find 238 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 3: this place through a kind of dream. Levi went on 239 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 3: like she did this to Ivy and I a few 240 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 3: days ago, and and like she did to you right now, 241 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 3: she thinks we'll be happy here because she doesn't know 242 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 3: that there are more important things in the world besides candy, 243 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 3: said Ivy. Alice was still for a bit trying to 244 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 3: take in everything that Levi and Ivy had just told her. 245 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 3: After giving it a bit of thought, she asked, so 246 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 3: this is all a dream, then, what do we have 247 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 3: to be worried about. 248 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: We'll just have to wake up in a bit and 249 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: be right back to normal. No, shouted Levi. 250 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, but you don't understand. It's not like that. 251 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 3: You don't just wake up. We were told by some 252 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 3: gingerbread men they fear the Queen too, that we have 253 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:07,599 Speaker 3: to find the magic door that leads back to the 254 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 3: real world to get out of here. You need to 255 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 3: follow us. We're trying to find our way out tonight. 256 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 3: Alice didn't know what was real or what was true anymore. 257 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 3: You know what, I think, I'll just enjoy sweet Wonderland 258 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 3: a little bit more and then I'll come. 259 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: Along with you, said Alice. 260 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 3: I mean, how many more times am I going to 261 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 3: be in a world made completely of sweets? Alice was 262 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 3: letting her hungry sweet tooth make the decision for her 263 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 3: when she should have been using her brain. Levi and 264 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 3: Ivy were trying to help her, and she couldn't see 265 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 3: past all the chocolate, gummies and sugar. As Alice walked 266 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 3: away from the tree, Levi and Ivy called out to 267 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 3: her one last time, but it was too late. As 268 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 3: Alice turned around to tell them it would be okay, 269 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 3: the Queen of Sweet Wonderland made her appearance, grab her, 270 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 3: shouted the queen to her guards. They were wearing sugar 271 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,559 Speaker 3: sashes and they held giant candy canes. They surrounded Alice 272 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 3: and blocked each way she tried to run. Alice called 273 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 3: out to Levi and Ivy, who took cover under the 274 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 3: fondent leaves of the tree they had all been standing under. 275 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 3: They wanted to make sure the Queen didn't see them, 276 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 3: but they never broke eye contact with Alice to let 277 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,599 Speaker 3: her know she wasn't alone. Levi made a motion with 278 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 3: his hands as if to tell her, we'll get you out. 279 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 3: Alice looked hopeful, but still very nervous. As the Queen 280 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 3: of Sweet Wonderland approached her. She was draped in a 281 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 3: glistening robe and her rock candy Tiara sparkled in the 282 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 3: bits of sunlight that streaked through the fond and leaves above. 283 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 3: She stomped along the licorice grass, kicking gumball rocks here 284 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 3: and there before reaching Alice. Welcome, Alice, so happy you 285 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,559 Speaker 3: can join us, said the Queen. We think you'll be 286 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 3: very happy in Sweet Wonderland. 287 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 1: Thank you for the invite. Alice began to say sheepishly, 288 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: I'll be leaving tonight. I have to get back to camp. 289 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 3: The Queen seemed to laugh under her breath, as if 290 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 3: to say, there's no way that will happen. And as 291 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 3: the Queen turned to talk with her guards, Alice saw 292 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 3: an opportunity to run, and that's exactly what she did. 293 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,319 Speaker 3: She ran deep into the woods of Sweet Wonderland and 294 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 3: kept running until she tripped over a rock candy branch 295 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 3: that had fallen across the path. When she opened her eyes, 296 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 3: she found herself face to face with no not Levi 297 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 3: and Ivy, but three gingerbread men. Alice looked nervous and scared, 298 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 3: and the gingerbread men were quick to set her mind 299 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 3: at ease. Don't worry, Alice, We're here to help you 300 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 3: find the magic door, so you can get home. 301 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: Said one of the gingerbread men. We're trying to help 302 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy as well. 303 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 3: Alice was so happy to hear that she stood and 304 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 3: gave the gingerbread men a big hug. 305 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: Thank you for your help. 306 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 3: She said, Let's find Levi and Ivy and get out 307 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 3: of here. Harry, Casey and Troy were sitting on the 308 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 3: edge of their seats waiting to hear what Levi and 309 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 3: Ivy would say about Alice and her unbelievable adventure to 310 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 3: find the magic door in sweets Wonderland that would lead 311 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 3: her back to the real world. As Levi was about 312 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 3: to start telling his friends the rest of the story, 313 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 3: the door to the mess hall opened. They all turned 314 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 3: around with a jump, thinking their counselors had come back 315 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 3: to see what was taking them so long, but that 316 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 3: was not the case. Instead, the door opened and a 317 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 3: woman in tan pants and a blue shirt walked in, 318 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 3: pulling a wagonful of candies and snacks. Sorry, kids, I 319 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 3: didn't mean to scare you, said the woman. I'm just 320 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 3: here to fill up the vending machine. Go right back 321 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 3: to your story. Levi and Ivy looked at the woman 322 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 3: a bit longer than Harry, Casey and Troy. The three 323 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 3: of them quickly turned their attention back to the story, 324 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 3: waiting for Levi and Ivy to do the same. Levi whispered, 325 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 3: Ivy does does. 326 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 1: That woman look familiar to you? A little? 327 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 3: Answered Levi, But we should get back to the story. 328 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 3: Levi took another quick look at the woman as she 329 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 3: began to fill the venue machine before he started to 330 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 3: tell everyone the rest of the story. At this point, 331 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 3: Alice was running through the forest with the three gingerbread 332 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 3: men looking for Levi and Ivy. 333 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: She was confident she would find. 334 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 3: Them, but as they ranted the first turn down a 335 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 3: dark path, things didn't look so good. 336 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: Stop, called out one of the gingerbread men. Watch out 337 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: for the hot chocolate. Normally, Alice would run toward hot chocolate. 338 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 3: She loved it, but that day it definitely was something 339 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 3: to avoid. Alice and the other two gingerbread men came 340 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 3: to a fast stop right at the edge of the 341 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 3: hot chocolate river that was running in front of them. 342 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: How are we gonna get over that, asked one of 343 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: the gingerbread men. 344 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 3: I think I know a way we can get across, 345 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 3: said Alice, doing some quick thinking, when I have hot chocolate, 346 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 3: the one thing that seems to last forever are the 347 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 3: big marshmallows that I put on top. There have to 348 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 3: be marshmallows somewhere in sweet Wonderland right One of the 349 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 3: gingerbread men jumped right up and ran through a large 350 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 3: patch of green licorice grass. 351 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: He was only gone a minute before. 352 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 3: He returned with four giant marshmallows. I think these will 353 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 3: work nicely, said the gingerbread men with a smile. He 354 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 3: took all four marshmallows and tossed them into the chocolate river. 355 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 3: Then he, the other two gingerbread men, and Alice each 356 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 3: jumped on one and floated across the river. Once they 357 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 3: reached the other side, the marshmallows melted away. They each 358 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 3: jumped off and landed safely on the cookie crumble shore. 359 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 1: Those marshmallows were just the right size. 360 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 3: Thank you, exclaimed Alice to the gingerbread men. The four 361 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 3: friends continued through the forest, running past thumb drop trees 362 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 3: and milk chocolate waterfalls before they ended up in a 363 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 3: field full of lollipops every color, size and shape. 364 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: You could imagine. 365 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,959 Speaker 3: And it was then that they finally found Levi and Ivy. 366 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 3: Alice over here, Levi called out, waving his arm from 367 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 3: behind a big pink and red lovelypop. I'm so glad 368 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 3: to see you, shouted Alice as she and the three 369 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 3: gingerbread men ran up to Ivy and Levi. Alice explained 370 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 3: to Levi and Ivy that the gingerbread Men were there 371 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 3: to help them find the magic door and return to 372 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 3: the real world. Levi and Ivy looked hopeful, but also 373 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 3: a little nervous. We've been trying to find the magic 374 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 3: door here for the last two days, said Levi. It's 375 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 3: harder to find it than you would. 376 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: Think, added Ivy. 377 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 3: You think a door in the middle of all this 378 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,479 Speaker 3: candy would be easy to see, but we haven't been 379 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 3: able to find it. 380 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 1: That's where the gingerbread Men come in, said Alice. Just 381 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: trust them and follow us. I know we could do 382 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:25,719 Speaker 1: this together. 383 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 3: As Alice, Levi, and Ivy, and the three gingerbread men 384 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 3: took off through the lollipop forest, they soon found out 385 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 3: that this was going to be a little harder than 386 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 3: they had first thought. As they were running in between 387 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 3: the lollipops, they heard a rumbling sound. They all stopped 388 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 3: and stared in every direction before they saw them, a 389 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 3: whole giant group. 390 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 1: Of gummy bears. They were much. 391 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 3: Bigger than the gummy bears that Alice, Levi and Ivy 392 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 3: enjoyed for a sweet snack. They towered over the three friends, 393 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 3: and they didn't look happy at all. 394 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: There you try to cross the lollipop. 395 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 3: Forest without the Queen, noan, said the red gummy bear. 396 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 3: Someone's called the Queen and her guards immediately, exclaimed the 397 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 3: green gummy bear as she and his gummy group stood 398 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 3: right in front of the gingerbread men Alice, Levi and Ivy. 399 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 3: Alice knew right away she had some more quick thinking 400 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:24,400 Speaker 3: to do. What could stop a gummy bear? Alice thought 401 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 3: to herself, and then she figured it out. The last 402 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 3: time she ate gummy bears, she had them on top 403 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 3: of ice cream. She remembered thinking it would be really 404 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 3: really tasty chewy tree on top of her cold ice cream, 405 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 3: But instead, the gummy bears became very hard and very 406 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 3: difficult to chew. That's it, Alice exclaimed. There has to 407 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,919 Speaker 3: be some snow cones around here, right. The gingerbread men 408 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 3: shook their heads. Yes, yes, there are some, not too 409 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 3: far from here. One gingerbread man said they grow at 410 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 3: the base of the fruit punch waterfalls. No sooner did 411 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 3: he finish talking than another one of the ginger bread 412 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 3: men ran off to grab them. Alice, Levi, and Ivy 413 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 3: all did their best to hold off the gummy bears 414 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 3: as they kept a lookout for the mean queen in 415 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 3: her guards. A few minutes passed before a very chilly 416 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 3: gingerbread man ran back holding a few giant snow cones. 417 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 3: Just trust me, said Alice as she grabbed the snow 418 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 3: cones and gave them to Levi and Ivy. Just wave 419 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 3: them in front of the gummy bears. Then she told 420 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 3: Levi and Ivy to fling the cones toward the bears 421 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 3: on the count of three. They all did it together, 422 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 3: and as soon as chili flavored ice hit the gummy bears, 423 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 3: they frozen place. The berried chili gummies couldn't move, couldn't walk, 424 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 3: and couldn't talk, so that meant that the gingerbread men, Alice, Levi, 425 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 3: and Ivy could finally get around them and threw the 426 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 3: lollipop forest. 427 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: It was really cool hanging out. 428 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 3: With you guys, giggled Alice as she ran past the 429 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 3: gummy bears. Yeah, just stay here and chill out, laughed 430 00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:58,919 Speaker 3: Ivy as she followed Alice. 431 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: We're sure you'll thaw out soon. 432 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 3: As Alice, Levi, and Ivy followed the gingerbread men, they 433 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 3: saw something in the distance that didn't look like a 434 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 3: tasty sweet tree. 435 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: The door, the magic door, exclaimed Alice. I can see it. 436 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 1: It's right there, past those fonded flowers. But just when Alice, Levi, 437 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 1: and Ivy thought they. 438 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 3: Were home free, they saw a few other things that 439 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 3: weren't as sweet at all. The Queen of Sweet Wonderland 440 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 3: and her guards. Just where do you think you're going, 441 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 3: said the queen as she pointed to her guards to 442 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 3: jump in front of the magic door. At this point, 443 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 3: so much was going on that Alice didn't notice that 444 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 3: the gingerbread men had snuck off into the tall liquorice 445 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 3: grass on the side of the trail. Well, it looks 446 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 3: like we've stopped you just before you got to the 447 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 3: magic door, said the queen with a laugh. Looks like 448 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 3: you'll be here for a little longer than you thought. 449 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 3: Alice was out of ideas and looked at Levi and 450 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 3: Ivy to see if they could think of anything. Unfortunately, 451 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 3: they just looked back at her. We don't know what 452 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 3: to do either, whispered Ivy. 453 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: We're sorry. 454 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 3: And just when they thought all hope was lost and 455 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 3: they would have to live in sweet Wonderland forever, they 456 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 3: heard a noise in the long licorice grass. 457 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: Who dares to sneak up on the queen, said the queen, 458 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: ordering her guards to investigate. 459 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 3: Alice watched as the guards and the queen turned their 460 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 3: attention to the long licorice grass. They walked further and 461 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 3: further into the grass as the noise continued. This is 462 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 3: our chance, whispered Alice to Levi and Ivy. Let's go, 463 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 3: and without a moment more of thought, the three friends 464 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 3: jumped towards the magic door, grabbed the doorknob, and turned it. 465 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 3: The door swung open, and just as the queen and 466 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 3: her guards realized that no one was watching Alice, Levi, 467 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 3: and Ivy anymore. 468 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 1: No shouted the queen as she. 469 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 3: Watched the three friends jump through the door and back 470 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 3: into the real world. Alice turned around before the door 471 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 3: closed and saw the three gingerbread men pop their heads 472 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 3: out of the long licorice grass and rave Alice smiled 473 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 3: back and waved with great appreciation. As the door swung closed, 474 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 3: it disappeared, and Alice, Levi, and Ivy found themselves sitting 475 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 3: in the middle of a big field, right back at 476 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 3: the summer camp. They sat there for a while, still 477 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 3: in quiet. Was that. 478 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: A dream, asked Alice, Dream or not? 479 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 3: I don't think we'll ever forget it, said Levi and Ivy. 480 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 3: And that, my friends, is why we don't want to 481 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 3: eat that candy, said Levi. 482 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: It just seems like maybe it could happen to us, 483 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: said Ivy. I mean our names were in the story. 484 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 3: Casey, Harry, and Troy didn't know what to think, but 485 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 3: they loved the story. They told Levi and Ivy they 486 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,719 Speaker 3: should tell it again at the next campfire. Yeah, that 487 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 3: sounds like a good idea, said a voice from behind them. 488 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 3: It was two of their camp counselors. Oka U five, 489 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 3: Time to get back to your bunks, said one of 490 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 3: the counselors. If you get back right now, we won't 491 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 3: tell anyone that you have all this candy. 492 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: Wow. Thanks, said Harry, Casey, Troy, Levi, and Ivy. 493 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,120 Speaker 3: As they got up and gathered their candy, Levi said, 494 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 3: one final thing, They never found out where Alice ended 495 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 3: up next, but we know that she will always find 496 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 3: a way to get back home. As Levi and Ivy 497 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 3: walked out of the mess hall, Levi turned to his 498 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 3: counselor and said, Hey, who is that woman filling the 499 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 3: vending machines? She looks really familiar. Yeah, I feel like 500 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 3: I know her somehow, added Ivy. Oh her, answered the counselor. 501 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:35,719 Speaker 1: That's Alice. 502 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 3: She just started here this summer. Levi and Ivy couldn't 503 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 3: believe their ears. They turned around to see if she 504 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 3: was still there, but all they saw was the door 505 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 3: swinging as she left, and on the mess hall table 506 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 3: where they'd been sitting was a single dream bar.
