[man] Max and Ruby.
[woman] Ruby
and her little brother, Max.
[children] Max and Ruby!
[children giggling]
[Ruby reading]
[Ruby humming]
May I have some more
red paint for my apple,
please, Ruby?
Certainly, Louise.
I'm finished with red.
I'm using banana yellow.
Painting a bowl of fruit
for the bunny scout art
exhibit is a great idea.
Oh.
Max?
[gasping] He's eating
our picture.
That fruit's not for eating.
It's for painting.
Paint.
[Ruby] Max, we're not
painting the fruit.
We're painting pictures
of fruit for bunny scouts.
Not anymore.
[Louise] Now we don't have
anything to paint.
That's okay, Max.
I know you can help us
fix that problem.
You're a great model, Max.
It's funny we never
thought of painting
a portrait before, Ruby.
Everyone likes paintings
of someone they know.
Smile, Max.
Now, don't move.
I'm going to paint
the best Max you ever saw.
Me, too.
[jazz music playing]
Paint.
[gasping]
A model has to be
very still, Max.
Oh, little brothers.
Art is hard work.
It's not just messing
with paint, you know?
A painter has to know
about shapes and color.
I'll show you, Max.
With just these three paints,
you can mix all the colors
of the rainbow.
Red and yellow
make orange.
[Louise] Blue and yellow
make green.
It's like magic.
Paint.
You have to learn about art
at school before you can mix
paints, Max.
All this artwork
is making me hungry.
Let's get a snack.
I can't wait to finish
our paintings of Max,
so that we can hang them
on the wall at the bunny
scout art exhibit.
That's how you know
if it's art,
if it's good enough
to hang on a wall.
Maybe our pictures will hang
right beside each other.
Two paintings of Max.
Don't worry, Max,
you'll learn to make
art when you're bigger.
[jazz music playing]
[squishing]
Paint.
[Ruby] Max.
Back to modeling, Max.
Hold still, Max.
We're going
to paint your face.
I can't get
Max's nose right.
His eyes are
in the wrong place.
[Ruby] Painting
faces is hard.
Maybe I can help.
I've been looking
at Max a long time.
His eyes kind of
look like this,
and his mouth
goes like this,
and then his nose
is more like so.
Ruby, yours looks
just like him.
Do you really
think so?
Oh, yes, look.
See his smile, here.
And see his smile
in real life.
And see the way you have
his hands at his side.
That's exactly the way
his hands are.
Hmm.
Just one more detail.
There.
Finished.
No, it isn't.
You forgot something.
I did?
Where?
You forgot to sign your
name on the bottom.
[girls giggling]
Painted by Ruby
and the date.
I really like
your painting, Louise.
It really looks
like Max.
[Louise] Really?
I'm not sure.
[Ruby] Yes, it does.
Look at his sailor suit
and his tie.
Wait a minute.
Something isn't right here.
Where?
I thought Max
was wearing a tie.
He is.
That's funny. I was
sure he had a tie on.
So was I.
I painted one, too.
See? He has his tie on
over his sailor suit.
Wait, what happened
to his sailor suit?
Max, you played
a trick on us.
All right, Max,
you can get down.
Paint.
Sorry, Max, it's time
to clean up.
Don't forget
the paint brushes.
[jazz music playing]
After bunny scouts, I'm going
to give my painting of Max
to Grandma as a present.
She'll love that.
[Grandma] Is this
the artists' studio?
Grandma!
I couldn't wait to see your
paintings at the art exhibit,
so I came over.
We'll be right out.
[Ruby] Do you like our
paintings, Grandma?
[Louise] Can you
tell who it is?
I love all three
Max paintings.
But, Grandma, we only painted
two paintings of Max,
my painting
and Louise's painting.
And Max's painting.
Max?
What did Max paint?
[chuckling] Me.
Max.
[Grandma laughing]
[Ruby reading]
[jazz music playing]
All right, Max,
we're here.
Out you go.
I've got to get
all these art supplies
for the banner Louise
and I are going to make.
Louise should be
here any second.
She has a surprise
for you.
[Louise] Here we are.
Max, this is my little
cousin, Morris.
He's visiting
for the day.
Morris, this is Max,
and this is Ruby.
Hi, Morris.
You two are going
to play while Louise
and I make the banner
for the bunny scout picnic.
I can't believe Bunny Scout
Leader asked us to make
the official banner.
I know. She's coming later
to see how we're doing.
Mine.
Mine.
Oh, no. You can't
play with those.
We need them
to make our banner.
I think Max and Morris
should play over there.
Good idea, Louise.
This is a perfect spot
for you to play.
Max, you and Morris
can be friends,
just like Louise
and I are.
Why don't you two
find a toy to play with,
while we get to work?
Mine.
Max, you've got
lots of toys.
You can share
them with Morris.
Round and round.
Round and round.
Vroom! Vroom! Vroom!
[Louise] If we just
leave them for a while,
I bet they'll start
to play together.
[Ruby] Let's
give it a try.
We have work to do.
Round and round.
Round and round.
Vroom! Vroom!
This is going to be
a big banner.
Well, we want
everyone to see it.
Oops!
[both giggling]
Mine.
Mine.
[Morris] Mine.
[Max] Mine.
There. Now we
can get started.
Mine.
[Ruby] I have an idea.
Instead of writing words,
let's draw pictures of bunny
scouts and a giant picnic.
That's a great idea, Ruby.
[Max] Mine.
[sighs]
What's the matter?
Truck, truck.
Vroom! Vroom-vroom!
Truck.
It doesn't look like
they're playing together.
Maybe they need
a little help.
I think you're right.
[Morris] Truck, truck.
[Louise] Having fun, Morris?
Morris really likes your
Rock-crusher Dump Truck, Max.
Why don't you let him take
a turn while you play with
something else?
Hmm.
Truck, truck.
Vroom! Vroom!
Here, Max, you can play
with your Rescue Ranger
Emergency Ambulance.
There are enough toys
for both of you to play
with, Morris.
Truck, truck.
Vroom! Vroom!
I think they're
getting the idea.
Let's get back
to our banner.
Truck, truck.
Vroom! Vroom!
Mine.
Mine.
Truck, truck.
Wee-oo, wee-oo!
Ruby, that looks just
like Bunny Scout Leader.
Do you think so?
Your picnic basket
is beautiful, too.
Thanks, I--
What's the matter
now, Max?
[Max] Mine.
[Morris] Wee-oo! Wee-oo!
I guess Morris isn't
letting Max take a turn.
I'll find one of your
favorite toys, Max,
and then you won't care
what Morris is playing with.
How about your
Chugga-chugga Choo-choo?
You love that.
Chugga-chugga-chugga.
-Chugga-chugga! Woo-woo!
-[Chugga-chugga whistling]
Good. We need
to get back to work.
I think our banner
is nearly done.
I can't wait
to see it hanging.
Me, too.
[Ruby] I have an idea.
-[Chugga-chugga whistling]
-Chugga-chugga-chugga!
[Morris] Chugga-chugga-chugga!
Wee-oo!
There.
Now we can get a good
look at our banner.
That was
a great idea, Ruby.
[Ruby] Let's
stand back a bit.
Mine.
Max, I thought you
were playing with your
Chugga-chugga Choo-choo.
Chugga-chugga!
Chugga-chugga!
[Louise] Morris.
You can't play with
all of Max's toys.
You have to let
him have a turn.
Mine.
Little cousins.
Hm.
I know.
Here, Max, play with your
Jelly-ball Spitting Spider.
Mine.
Mine.
Mine.
Mine.
[both girls] Hmm.
It's nice.
Yes, but--
It needs a little something.
To make it extra special.
Right.
[Max] Mine.
[Morris] Mine.
Mine.
Mine.
-[whirring]
-[popping]
[both gasping]
Oh, dear.
[jazz music playing]
-[whirring]
-[popping]
-[clicking continuously]
-[popping continuously]
-[whirring]
-[popping]
Max.
-[whirring]
-[popping]
Morris.
Look what you did
to our banner.
[Bunny Scout Leader gasping]
Look at that banner.
Oh!
Bunny Scout Leader,
we can explain.
It's beautiful.
Beautiful?
Yes.
Whose idea was it
to add these lovely
splashes of color?
[Max and Morris] Mine.
[child reading]
[Ruby] This is so exciting.
I can't wait to start our
very first scavenger hunt.
What do we do?
Find things, right,
Bunny Scout Leader?
That's right,
bunny scout, Valerie.
I've put together a list
of things you should be able
to find here in the park,
if keep your eyes
and ears open.
How do we know
what to look for?
First, I'll give
you a clue,
and when you solve it,
you'll know what you're
supposed to find.
If you work together,
and do your best,
you'll earn your
nature badge.
Who wants to read
the first clue?
[all shouting excitedly]
Okay, Louise,
you start.
Have fun.
[Ruby] What is it?
Let me see.
[Max] Find.
Find?
Oh, no, Max, this isn't
for little brothers.
It's a scavenger hunt
for bunny scouts.
Find.
[Ruby sighing]
I have to get a toy
for Max to play with.
Come on, Max, let's
find a toy for you.
[Louise] This is exciting.
You'll have more fun
playing with your toys
than you will hanging around
us bunny scouts, Max.
Let's see what
we've got here.
Here's your
Rock-crusher Dump Truck
and there's even a mud
puddle for you to play in.
Have fun, Max.
Vroom!
All right, I'm back.
Let's read the clue.
"I'm light and I float
and I have a golden hue.
To see me, you might
need a bird's-eye view."
A bird's-eye view?
It must have something
to do with a bird.
Maybe it's a nest.
But it's light
and colorful.
[gasping] An egg?
But the clue also said
it's light and it floats.
An egg doesn't float.
Oh, right.
[all] Hmm.
Oh.
A feather floats.
In the air.
-[Louise] That's it.
-Yes, a feather.
[Valerie] That's it, yeah.
Hmm. It has
a golden hue.
Which bird has
a golden feather?
We could check
the Bunny Scouts' Guidebook.
Let's see.
Vroom!
Find.
Here's something.
"The yellow-breasted
warbler builds its nest
in shrubs and willow trees
and has yellow
or golden feathers."
We're looking for the feather
of a yellow-breasted warbler.
That must be it.
We should
look for shrubs
and willow trees.
There's a willow tree.
Louise, may I borrow
your binoculars?
Sure.
What do you see?
[Ruby] I'm not sure.
[Max] Find!
Here, Louise, you can
take these back.
I've got to find another
toy for Max to play with.
Find.
Yes, Max, we'll go
find another toy.
Then I have to get back
to the scavenger hunt.
Here's your
Deep-diver Submarine.
Why don't you
play with it?
You know your submarine
loves to dive in the
[Valerie] There it is.
I found it.
[girls] Yeah!
They found the feather!
[submarine alarm sounds]
Here it is, a feather
from the yellow-breasted
warbler.
Good job, everyone.
Especially bunny
scout Valerie.
Mm, bunny scout Ruby,
why don't you read
the next clue?
"To find my green leaf
is the thing you must do.
I'm a tree with white flowers
and here's your big clue.
Though I'm really a tree,
here in the park,
if I were your pet,
you'd expect me to bark."
Don't all trees
have a bark?
[Ruby] But the clue has
something to do with a pet,
A pet that barks.
[both] A dog!
Ooh, ooh, wait, wait.
Isn't there a tree
called a dogwood?
Let's see what it
looks like in the book.
Here it is.
"The dogwood has white
flowers and green leaves."
[Ruby] So, we're hunting
for a leaf from a tree
that looks like this.
Let's spread out.
Find.
[submarine alarm sounds]
Find.
All right, Max.
I'll help you
find another toy.
What would you like
to play with now?
Your Ear-splitter
Space Cadet?
Your Bunny Racer?
Your Chugga-chugga
Choo-choo?
How about your
Fly-and-Float Sea plane?
Here, Max, you'll
have fun playing with--
[Louise] Found one!
[gasping] Someone
found a dogwood leaf.
[Valerie] Yes, that looks
like a dogwood leaf,
if I ever saw one.
Way to go, bunny
scout Louise.
Very good, bunny scouts.
You'll all have to put your
heads together to figure
out the last clue.
-Ready?
-[all] Yes! Yes!
"Inside a ripe apple
you've picked from a tree
or on the end of a fishing
line you drop in the sea,
These are just a few places
that we can be found.
But, truly, our home
is deep in the ground."
Hmm. This is
the hardest one yet.
Work together,
bunny scouts.
In an apple or at the end
of a fishing line.
What could that mean?
The clue said their home
is deep in the ground.
Whatever it is,
it sure gets around.
Wait, worms.
[all] Worms!
[all] Yeah, Ruby!
[all] Ew, worms!
I know just where
I'm going to look.
Where do you think?
Find.
Max, can you please stop
playing for a moment?
-I need you to help me.
-Find.
Max, you found a worm.
That's exactly what
I was looking for.
How did you know?
Hey, everyone,
look what I
Look what Max
helped me find.
Find.
