[man] Max and Ruby.
[woman] Ruby
and her little brother, Max.
[children] Max and Ruby!
[children giggling]
[Ruby reading]
[rocket beeping]
[gasps]
Whoa!
Max, hurry up.
We have to go now.
Stay home.
[laughs] No, Max.
You can't stay home.
We're going to Louise's
on the bus.
It's going to be here any
[sputtering]
[sighs] oh, minute.
I'd better go check
the bus schedule,
and find out
when the next bus is.
[buzzing]
You need to stop playing with
your Ear-Splitter Space Rocket
and get ready to go.
[Rocket]
Greetings, earthling.
[Ruby] The next bus is in
two minutes.
[gasps] I'll just call Louise
and let her know
we're on a later bus.
[Rocket] Blast off.
Max, you're still playing.
We have to go.
Stay home.
We can't stay home, Max.
We're going to Louise's.
[Louise on phone] Hello?
Hi, Louise, it's Ruby.
[Louise talking on phone]
We missed the bus.
Yes,
but there's another bus
in two minutes,
and we'll be on that one.
Okay, bye.
[gasps]
Max!
[Rocket] Greetings, earthling.
Okay, Max,
you can take
your Ear-Splitter Space Rocket
with you to Louise's.
I have my purse
and just enough money
for two tickets.
[siren wailing]
Emergency!
[Ruby gasps]
Emergency! Emergency!
Whoa!
Emergency! Emergency!
[Ruby] Hurry, Max,
or we'll miss the bus.
I've got your
Ear-Splitter Space Rocket.
Now, let's go outside
and wait for the bus.
Stay home.
Max, we have to leave right now,
or we'll miss the next
[sputtering]
[sighs] bus.
I'd better call Louise again.
Hi, Louise?
[Louise talking on phone]
It's me again.
[Louise talking loudly]
Yes, I'm sorry,
but we missed another bus.
I know, but we'll catch
the next one, I promise.
Okay, bye.
[ambulance] Emergency!
Emergency!
Okay, Max,
you can take your Rescue Ranger
Emergency Ambulance
and your Ear-Splitter
Space Rocket over to Louise's,
But we have to hurry.
The next bus is coming soon.
Now, you wait here
while I check the schedule.
Good, we have plenty of time
to catch the next one.
Okay, Max, I have your
Ear-Splitter Space Rocket,
and I have your Rescue Ranger
Emergency Ambulance,
and I have my purse
with money for the bus tickets.
Let's go.
[Max] Stay home.
Okay, you can bring
your Rock Crusher Dump Truck
and your fire truck too.
You can bring whatever you want.
Just hurry.
All right, Max,
I'd better get a tote bag
to put all of this in.
Don't go anywhere, Max.
[bus sputtering]
[Max] Bus.
Oh, no.
We missed another one.
Now, I'll have to check
the schedule again.
There's only one more bus.
We have to catch that one.
Okay, Max,
I'm packing your
Ear-Splitter Space Rocket
and your Rescue Ranger
Emergency Ambulance
and your Rock Crusher
Dump Truck
and your fire truck,
even your red rubber elephant.
Now, let's go catch that bus.
Stay home.
Max, come out
and close the door.
Hurry.
[Max sighing]
I can't believe
we're finally going
to catch the bus to Louise's!
Oh, good, here comes the bus.
Now, I'll just get
the money out for our tick
[gasps]
Oh, no!
My purse, I left it inside.
You wait there, Max.
I'll be right back.
[bus approaches]
Bus.
[Ruby] Wait! Wait!
Oh, good.
[door hisses]
No!
[sighs] That was
the last bus, Max.
Now, we can't go
to Louise's and play.
[Louise] Hi, Ruby.
[Ruby gasps] Louise!
What are you doing here?
I got tired of waiting,
so I decided
to take the bus here.
That's great.
We're going to have
so much fun.
[Ruby and Louise giggling]
[Ruby] What do you want to do?
[Max] Stay home.
[Ruby and Louise giggling]
[Ruby reading]
Look, everyone.
This is a perfect place
to plant our marigolds.
There's nice rich soil here.
Marigolds love that,
especially if it has
worms in it.
Worm cake.
That's disgusting, Max.
We're going to make
a marigold garden.
Aren't we, Curly Shirley?
There's just the right amount
of sunlight here.
Marigolds need sunlight
to turn yellow and stay yellow.
Max, what are you doing
with my gardening trowel?
Worm cake.
[Ruby] No, Max,
You can't make a worm cake here.
I'm planting my dolly's
marigold garden.
Okay, Max, come over here.
You can make your disgusting
worm cake over here.
Put anything you like in it
over here.
I'll plant my marigolds
over there.
Now, where is it?
There it is.
The perfect marigold trowel.
[door closing]
Worm cake.
Okay, now I'm ready
to start planting my marigolds.
We learned all about
planting marigolds at school.
If you watch very carefully
and listen to everything I say,
you'll know what marigolds need
to grow big and beautiful.
Hmm
What we need is some water
to loosen the soil up.
[water running]
[tap squeaking]
[Ruby] Marigolds need water
just like you and I do.
If they don't have water,
they just shrivel up and die.
See, Rapunzel?
That water will make it
much easier to dig.
Now, we'll save all this soil
till later.
Then we'll put it around
the marigold's roots
to keep them warm at night.
Marigolds need soil
in their bed
just like we need
blankets on our bed.
[Ruby] When you're digging,
you should always be
on the lookout
for things that marigolds need.
What's that?
Look what I found.
Stones.
See?
This is what I'm talking about.
You need stones when
you're planting marigolds too.
They help hold the water
around the roots
so the marigolds can drink.
Okay, I think the hole
is deep enough.
Now, I'll get one of the most
important things marigolds need.
[fly buzzing]
Now, where is it?
There it is!
Perfect.
[door closing]
This is organic plant food.
Marigolds need
organic plant food
just like Max and I need
strawberry jam sandwiches.
Okay, now,
I think I've got everything.
The hole, water,
soil, worms, stones, plant food,
check.
That's everything.
Whoops,
I forgot the most
important thing of all,
the marigolds.
Now, where did I put them?
There they are.
[Ruby] Aren't they beautiful?
I knew you'd like them.
Now comes the final step.
We put the marigolds
in the hole.
Next, we put some water in.
What happened to all the water?
Where are the worms?
And the stones?
And the plant food?
And the soil?
Max
what did you do with them?
Worm cake.
[Ruby] Max,
you used everything
for your worm cake.
Now, I can't plant marigolds
in my dolly's garden.
I don't want your
disgusting worm cake.
I want the things
my marigolds need
to grow big and beautiful.
Don't you remember
what they need, Max?
Worm cake.
[Ruby gasps]
Thank you, Max.
[Ruby reading]
[thunder rumbling]
[water dripping]
[Ruby humming]
Oh, it's raining, Mr. Quack.
Let's get you
and Mrs. Quack inside
before you get all wet.
We'd better go inside.
Max, it's raining.
We have to go inside.
Outside.
No, Max. We can't stay outside.
It's raining.
Outside.
All right, Max. We can play
outside in the rain
but only if we're dressed
for the rain.
Come on inside, and we'll put on
our rain clothes, okay?
[Max] outside.
[giggling] That was close.
We nearly got all wet.
Outside.
[Ruby] Not yet, Max.
We have to get dressed
for the rain first,
or we'll get soaked.
Okay, Max.
All our rain clothes are here.
You put yours on,
and I'll put mine on.
First, we'll put our boots on.
Rubber boots will keep our feet
nice and dry in the rain.
Now, which rain boots
should I wear?
Outside.
Max, you can't go outside
until you've got
all your rain clothes on,
remember?
Now, put the boot
on your foot, Max.
Let's see
I have two pairs of boots,
one red and one yellow.
Which ones should I wear?
I'll ask my dolls.
[boots squeaking]
What do you think?
[boot squeaking]
Max, where are you going?
Outside.
Uh-uh-uh, Max.
You can't go outside
with one boot on.
Come on.
You have to put
your other boot on too.
I think you're right,
Curly Shirley.
The red boots are much nicer.
[gasps] Max?
Where are you going now?
Outside.
[Ruby giggles] No, not yet, Max.
[boots squeaking]
Hmm
Something doesn't sound right.
Let me check those boots.
You've got them
on the wrong feet.
Here, let me help you, Max.
You had your right boot
on your left foot
and your left boot
on your right foot.
Now, let's put your left boot
on your left foot.
There.
And your right boot
on your right foot.
Like that.
Perfect.
Now, where was I?
Oh, yes.
I have to put my other boot on.
[humming "Frere Jacques"]
Hold it, Max.
Where do you think you're going?
Outside.
[Ruby giggles] Max,
you need more than boots
to go out in the rain.
You need a raincoat.
We call this a slicker.
It's so slick,
the rain just slides off it.
That will keep the rain
off your whole body.
And I'll put my slicker on too.
Outside.
[Ruby laughs] Max,
you're still not ready
to go out in the rain.
You have to put your rain hat on
to keep the rain off your head.
[laughing] Whoops,
let's fix that.
There.
Now we're both covered
from head to toe,
and we're ready for the rain.
Except for one more thing,
an umbrella.
There's one for me
and one for you.
With umbrellas over our heads,
we won't have to worry about
getting any rain on us anywhere.
[gasps] Oh, no, Max.
Never open an umbrella
in the house.
That's bad luck.
Outside!
[laughing] Yes, Max,
Now, we can go outside.
We're all dressed for the rain.
Okay, Max,
Now that we're outside,
we can put our umbrellas up.
Are you ready?
Okay, one
two
three
Let them go.
There. Now, we can play outside
as long as we like,
and we won't feel
a drop of rain.
This is fun.
[wind blowing]
[Ruby] Oh,
we're all dressed for the rain,
and now it's stopped.
Well, I guess we should
go back inside
and take all our
rain clothes off, Max.
[water dripping]
There's no point
wearing rain clothes
if there's no rain.
Let's go, Max.
[Ruby] The clouds are gone,
and the sun is out.
How can it be raining?
Hey!
Rain!
[giggles] Max!
[giggling] Thanks, Max.
