15
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: Me too, Let's go. He opened his eyes and peeked

16
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 1: out of his iglue. Ah, today is gonna be a

17
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 1: good day, and I need some kind of adventure or

18
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 1: something to do in my Oh, my tummy is very hungry.

19
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: I need some food. Puddles. The polar bear crawled out

20
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: of his igloo and looked around for something to eat.

21
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: There was nothing All that was around him was just

22
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: snow and ice in the ocean. Of course, he lived

23
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 1: right on the edge of a sheet of ice and snow.

24
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,279
Speaker 1: That's where he built his iggluo. And if you're wondering

25
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: why he's named Puddles, it's because he really likes jumping

26
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: in puddles. Have you ever seen a polar bear jump

27
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 1: in puddles and splash them around? It's pretty hilarious. There's

28
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: nothing to eat around here. It looks like we gotta

29
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: look around. It was just then that he saw a

30
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: whole bunch of seagulls flying up high in the sky overhead. Hello, seagulls,

31
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: up there, Ah, do you get I think you have

32
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: something in your mouth. What do you got up there?

33
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: Snowflake cookies. Snowflake cookies, shouted Puddles. I didn't know those

34
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: were out yet. Where did you get those from? He

35
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: shouted back, a further north. They're on sale. They're on sale. Oh, like,

36
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: you better go get some coins, Puddles. The pular bear

37
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: ran back inside of his igloo to grab some money. Because, yes,

38
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: those cookies called snowflake cookies were very rare in the

39
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: North End. They were very delicious and they only went

40
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: on sale a couple of days every year. It were.

41
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: I believe it was the elves that made these delicious

42
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: snowflake cookies, you know, when they weren't wrapping presents and

43
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: helping Santa. But these el made the most delicious cookie

44
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: ever called the snowflake cookie, and every polar bear, every critter,

45
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:14,079
Speaker 1: every living thing wanted a taste. D'artanian shouted, Puddles, where

46
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: are you? Oh? There you are, boy, Come here. Puddles

47
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: had a little dog named d'Artagnan. They were best friends,

48
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: and Puddles didn't want to go on this adventure alone,

49
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 1: so he was calling his dog, d'Artagnan to come along.

50
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 1: That's the planned for today. Are we gonna do something amazing? Yeah?

51
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: I just heard that snowflake cookies went on sale today.

52
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: Although seagulls had some snowflake cookies. Where do we gotta

53
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: go get some? Well? I was thinking we could head

54
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: up there. Now, we could jump in the submarine and

55
00:03:56,200 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: try and get there faster. Oh that was d'artagnan's way

56
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: of saying, let's go. Puddles the polar bear and d'Artagnan

57
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: the dog both walked all the way down to the

58
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: water's edge. That's where puddles Is submarine was parked. They

59
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 1: climbed inside, closed the door, and down she went. Oh

60
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:23,720
Speaker 1: uh ohoh. That was the sound of the submarine as

61
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: it started to descend into the water. It was to

62
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 1: let all the other sea creatures know to kind of

63
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: look out and get out of the way, because here

64
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 1: comes a ginormous submarine into the water. Okay, Puddles, where

65
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 1: where do we How do we know where we're going

66
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 1: to get those delicious snowflake cookies? Well, d'Artagnan, I think

67
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: we we might need to ask for directions along the way.

68
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: Let's see if there's any fish here that might know.

69
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: Puddles grabbed onto the loudspeaker that was connected to the submarine.

70
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: It was their way of talking to all the other

71
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: sea life that was in the water from inside the submarine.

72
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 2: Sh Hello, everybody out there, I see you, barracudas and mermaids.

73
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 2: I hope you're having a super dupern a. Can you

74
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 2: point us towards where the snowflake cookies are?

75
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: All the fish looked up at the submarine and pointed

76
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: their left fin all in the same direction. Sh thank

77
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: you for your help. Everybody, shouted Puddles into the loud speaker.

78
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: All right, d'Artagnan, looks like we got our coordinates. Let's go.

79
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: I can't wait for all those delicious of like cookies.

80
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: They put the submarine in full speed, which turned out

81
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: to be in not a good choice. It's better to

82
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 1: take its slow and steady when you're in a submarine

83
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: underneath a whole bunch of glaciers and icebergs, and oh dear,

84
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the submarine came to a screeching, crashing, halt, boom, crash.

85
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: Whoa ouch, Oh, Puddles got knocked over, Tartagan, are you okay? Yeah?

86
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: I just kind of got rolled over on my back?

87
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 1: But what is that? I'm not sure. Uh, let me

88
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 1: take a look, Puddles. The polar bear ran over to

89
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,919
Speaker 1: the window and that's when he saw it. Oh no,

90
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 1: we crashed, We crashed into that iceberg. Look, Puddles was right.

91
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 1: As he raised his polar bear paw and pointed his

92
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: fingers out the window, they could see that an iceberg

93
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: had surely trapped their submarine. Dun, dun, dum, what are

94
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 1: we gonna do? We're never gonna make it before all

95
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:57,479
Speaker 1: the cookies are gone. I know we must act fast,

96
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 1: said Puddles. Pa'll fix the sub later, but we gotta

97
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: get out, swim to the top and start running as

98
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 1: fast as we can. Come on, Puddles and d'Artagnan jumped

99
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: out of the submarine and swam up to the surface

100
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: of the ocean. Wow, that is some cold water. Come on, d'Artagnan. Puddles,

101
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: the polar Bear and d'Artagnan climbed out of that icy,

102
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: cold ocean water, pulled themselves up onto the icy ledge,

103
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 1: and realized that they still had a long ways to go.

104
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 1: Oh dear, we didn't make it that far before we crashed,

105
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: said Puddles. Look in that mountain over there, that's where

106
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: the elves bake all those delicious cookies. We better start running.

107
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: Come on. Puddles and d'Artagnan took off as fast as

108
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: they could, running and running and running through the snow

109
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: they went. It's a good thing they had a lot

110
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: of warm fur to keep them from not freezing. Yikes,

111
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: there's no way I could jump into the frozen ocean

112
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: water and then get into the snow and run. That

113
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: just makes me cold thinking about it. How about you.

114
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: It took several hours of running before they finally made

115
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: it to the hills, but the sun was starting to

116
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: set and the day was almost over. Puddles and d'Artagnan

117
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: made it all the way to the door to the

118
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: snow Like Cookie Store, but the door was locked and

119
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: the sign said the store was closed. d'Artagnan started to

120
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: whimper and was very sad. I'm sorry, d'Artagnan said, Puddles,

121
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 1: looks like you didn't make it in time. But just

122
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: then a light turned on from inside of the cookie store. Well, sorrel,

123
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: but we're clurled, said a voice from inside. Bum do

124
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: you have any more cookies? You see my friend and

125
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: I we traveled very far to try a snowflake cookie,

126
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: and I know we're late, But do you happen to

127
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: have any more left? Please begged Puddles. There were several

128
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: moments of silence, and suddenly the door lock clicked open.

129
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: The handle started to turn, and the door opened just

130
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: a crack. Well, we'll have a little one left. Little

131
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: have I'm sorry, laules and more, but the little sawl crystal.

132
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 1: Oh wow, thank you so much, said Puddles. We'll make

133
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 1: sure to get here on time. Next year, lord call,

134
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 1: have her gone out? Barl. As the door closed and

135
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: Puddles turned around to d'Artagnan holding only one cookie, they

136
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: both felt a little sad. Well, d'Artagnan, here's your half,

137
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: Puddles broke the cookie in half. You're gonna share the

138
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 1: cookie with me? Of course, d'Artagnan. Me and you were partners,

139
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: and oh yeah, we gotta share everything. Don't worry. As

140
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: Puddles and d'Artagnan bit into their delicious snowflake cookie, they

141
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: close their eyes to savor the flavor, since there wasn't

142
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 1: very much for them to eat. Ah, that was good.

143
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: Next year, d'Artagnan, we got to make sure that we

144
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: don't crash our submarine into one of those big things

145
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 1: ice right. I think of the same thing, and that

146
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: it may be the end of our story. But I'm

147
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: pretty sure Puddles and d'Artagnan learned a very important lesson.

148
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 1: When you're driving a submarine with a bunch of glaciers

149
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: and icebergs around, gotta make sure you don't crash so

150
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: you don't miss out on those delicious snowflake cookies. The end, Hey, friends,

151
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 1: I need your help celebrating your birthday. Drum roll please,
