Speaker 2: Me too? Let go.

12
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: It was a rainy day outside as Luca was playing

13
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: with some of his toys. He had built an amazing

14
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: castle and whole world using some blocks, action figures, and cars.

15
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: It was amazing. This world that he built was something

16
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 1: that he had worked on for a very long time.

17
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: It's kind of like he was never done actually building it.

18
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 2: Have you ever worked on.

19
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: Something like that before, where every day you can add

20
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: to it to make it a little bigger, or a

21
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 1: little more exciting, or some more details. Yeah, the details

22
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: are the parts that make things extra special. Do you

23
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: know what details means? Yeah, it's all the little things.

24
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: So if you're making a castle, you might first build

25
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: the structure of the castle, but then to make it

26
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: a little more special, maybe you add a moat around

27
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: the castle or a drawbridge. Those things are the details

28
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: of what makes the castle or whatever you're building super

29
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: duper cool. Hey, Luca shouted one of his parents. We're

30
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: gonna be leaving at eleven fifty, so make sure that

31
00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: you're ready before then. Okay, okay, shouted Luca. He turned

32
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: around to look at his clock to see what time

33
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: it was, how much more time he could work on

34
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: his world, but it was not showing anything. Oh, man,

35
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: I think my clock is out of batteries. Luca raced

36
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 1: over to the battery drawer, pulled it out and searched

37
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 1: for double a's. Hmmm, nothing in he No, no double

38
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: a's here, said Luca. Um, maybe the closet has some.

39
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: He ran over to the closet and checked no batteries

40
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 1: there either. How in the world was he going to

41
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: be ready to leave the house at eleven fifty if

42
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: he didn't know what time it was. What if, like

43
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: right now it was eleven forty eight and he only

44
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 1: had a two minutes left.

45
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 2: Dour, what if there is a whole hour? Hm?

46
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: Luca had to find some batteries. He decided it might

47
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 1: be a good idea to grab some of his spy

48
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 1: gear to help him look for clues of batteries. As

49
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: he journeyed around his entire house, he finally found one

50
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: double A battery.

51
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 2: But do you remember how many? He needed? Two?

52
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: He needs two double A batteries. One is not enough.

53
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 1: He grabbed a flashlight and turned it on and started

54
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 1: to look in some places that maybe a battery might

55
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: have rolled into or under. Not in his closet, not

56
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: under his bed. Wait, underneath the couch was one more battery.

57
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: He finally had two double A batteries. He raced up

58
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: to his clock and carefully put them in the right

59
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: places in the clock, pressed the on button, and as

60
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: it turned on.

61
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 2: It blinked.

62
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: Eh, Luca shouted. He had never seen his clock do

63
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: that before.

64
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 3: Why hello there, Oh can I help you?

65
00:03:57,960 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 2: Said his clock.

66
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: Holy smoke, How did you come alive?

67
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:08,119
Speaker 3: Oh? Well, I've always been alive. I've just never had

68
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 3: much to say. But now that you're staring right at

69
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 3: my face, I say hello. Oh Hi, my name's Luca.

70
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 3: What's your name?

71
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 2: Why hello, Luca? My name is clock.

72
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: A zoo did you say clock a zoo. Oh that's

73
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: a fun name.

74
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 2: Hi, clock a zoo? So uh again? Do you do

75
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:33,919
Speaker 2: you know what time it is?

76
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: That's that's why I, uh, that's what I need help

77
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 1: with right now, asked Luca.

78
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 2: Oh, dear, Hi, I do not know the time? What

79
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 2: time is it?

80
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 3: Oh? No?

81
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,679
Speaker 2: What kind of clock doesn't know the time?

82
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 1: Clock a zoo started to cry because he didn't know

83
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: what time it was, and I think that's the clock's

84
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 1: only job. So I think Luca is gonna need to

85
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,679
Speaker 1: give him some help. Oh, please do not cry, said Luca.

86
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: I will help you. Don't worry. We will figure out

87
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: the time together. Um, what about the sun? Doesn't the

88
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: sun help us tell time? Asked Luca.

89
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 2: I think you're right, but I do not know how

90
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 2: to do that.

91
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 1: Luca put his hand underneath his chin as he started

92
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 1: to think very hard. Can you think of.

93
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 2: A way of how.

94
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 1: If you turned on a clock for the very first time,

95
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: how would you know what time it is? To program

96
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: that clock to have the right time?

97
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 3: Hm.

98
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: Luca was thinking very very hard. He didn't know if

99
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: he was running out of time before his family was leaving,

100
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: or if there was plenty of time. It's quite the

101
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: situation to be in. Wait a second, I just remembered something,

102
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 1: said Luca.

103
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,159
Speaker 2: What is it bad? Is it good?

104
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 1: Asked Klokazoo. Oh no, no, no, it's very very good.

105
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: Don't you worry. Just wait right here. I'll be right back. Oh,

106
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,159
Speaker 1: don't worry. I won't move. I don't have any legs.

107
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: I'll wait right here. Luca raced off to go find

108
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: another clock somewhere else in his house. There would be

109
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: another clock, maybe on the.

110
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 2: Microwave or maybe hanging on the.

111
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,799
Speaker 1: Wall somewhere, but there would surely be another place where

112
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: that time would show.

113
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 2: All right, where's the clock? Where's the clock?

114
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm running out of time or

115
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: have plenty left. Uh.

116
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 2: Oh, there's one. It says one one four eight one

117
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 2: one four eight. Okay.

118
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 1: He raced back over to where his Clockazoo, was sitting.

119
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,679
Speaker 2: Eh, what did you did you find out what time

120
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 2: it was? Yes? Yes, it was Uh it was one

121
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 2: one for eight.

122
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 3: How do I how do I change the the buttons?

123
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,559
Speaker 2: Hit the buttons right here.

124
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: The clock had these buttons on the top of it,

125
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: and that would help change the time on it to

126
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: set it to the right time. Okay, I just have

127
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 1: a couple more buttons. I gotta get the get the

128
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: time all the way to Wait a second, what was

129
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:31,679
Speaker 1: what was the time?

130
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 2: I can't remember? Eleven? It was uh one one? What

131
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 2: were the other numbers? I don't remember. I don't have

132
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: a good memory. Ah ah was it uh one one

133
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:45,720

Speaker 1: Yes it was uh it was one one for eight? Yes, hurry,

135
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: tap tap tap tap tap. He tapped on the buttons

136
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: until the clock finally showed eleven forty eight.

137
00:07:58,680 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 2: You've done it, loud.

138
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 3: Oh, it feels so much better to have to write

139
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 3: time on my face. Oh didn't you say you had

140

Speaker 1: Luca then remembered, Holy smokes, Yeah, you're right. I had

142
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: to get ready to leave. It was like eleven fifty.

143
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: I think how many more minutes until then? Luca looked

144
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: back at the clock and it now read eleven forty nine.

145
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: Holly smokes, there's only one more minute left.
