Transcript: Bugfoot / The Day Time Stood Still
A firefly flies around a pond at night.
Flick appears on screen and says IT'S TIME TO LIGHT THINGS UP.
Flick is a firefly who wears a pink beanie, a brown T-shirt, black pants, and blue shoes. He has little tiny glowing wings that flutter behind him.
The song goes SHUTTERBUGS!
Flick flies throw the pond past a large toad and through leaves and cattails.
The song continues NA NA NA NA-NA-NA-NA
SHUTTERBUGS!
He flies into a lit-up city made of mushrooms and tree trunks flying past Harvey eating a watermelon and Opal reading a book in a hammock. Harvey is a large blue fly that wears a blue shirt and black pants. Opal is a spider wearing a green shirt and black pants on 8 legs.
The song continues NA NA NA NA-NA-NA-NA
SHUTTERBUGS!
SHUTTERBUGS
Flick, Harvey, and Opal fly by the title written in the sky that reads "Shutterbugs."
The episode title reads "Bugfoot."
[PHONE RINGING]
Flick looks at his watch and Gordon says FLICK, YOU THERE?
I HAVE A MONSTER
OF A STORY FOR YOU.
Gordon is an older caterpillar with a white goatee and glasses.
Flick says BE THERE IN A FLASH, BOSS!
Flick flies into the news centre.
Then, Flick, Harvey, and Opal walk into Gordon?s office and Flick says HEY GUYS, GOOD TIMING!
BUT UH, WHERE'S GORDON?
Opal says GORDON?
Harvey says G TO THE
ORDO!
Gordon jumps out from a picture of the entrance of a cave and says SHUTTERBUGS!
THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE HERE!
WE JUST GOT THIS IN FROM
SNEVILLE THE TURTLE.
They look at a screen, where there is a blurry picture of a white creature in the woods, gasp and yell WHAT IS THAT?
Gordon says HE HAS MANY NAMES -
SWAMPSQUATCH, MARSHY.
BUT IN THESE PARTS
HE'S SIMPLY KNOWN AS...
Harvey says BUGFOOT!
Flick says C'MON, THAT'S JUST
A BLURRY PHOTO!
EVERYONE KNOWS
BUGFOOT ISN'T REAL.
OPAL, BACK ME UP HERE.
Opal says SORRY, FLICK.
EVERYONE'S HEARD
BUGFOOT STORIES.
THERE'S GOT TO BE
SOME TRUTH TO THEM.
Gordon says AND THERE WERE SIGHTINGS ALL
OVER MURKY MARSH LAST NIGHT.
I NEED THE SHUTTERBUGS TO GET
A CLEARER PICTURE OF BUGFOOT.
Opal and Harvey gulp, and f1 says WE'LL GET THE SCOOP, AND SHED
SOME LIGHT ON THE STORY.
The three bugs in the office sit at their desks and say I THINK...
They start to sing WE CAN HELP.
WE CAN HELP.
WHEN YOU'RE IN THE DARK
OR LOST IN THE PARK
UH OH, WHAT?
DO YOU HEAR THAT FLY?
OH, WHAT'S THAT IN THE SKY?
ASK YOURSELF
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
LIGHT! REAL BRIGHT!
LET'S MAKE IT
ALL SHINE - ALL RIGHT!
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
EVERYTHING
WILL BE ALL RIGHT!
SHED SOME LIGHT!
Later on, Flick and the bugs walk in a spooky forest.
Flick says OKAY, LET'S START WITH
THE THINGS WE KNOW?
WHO?
Harvey says BUGFOOT!
WHAT?
Opal says HE'S A BIG
HAIRY BUG MONSTER.
WHERE?
Flick says RIGHT HERE IN MURKY MARSH.
WHEN?
Opal says LAST NIGHT!
WHY?
Harvey says TO SUCK BUG BRAINS!
Flick says OKAY, NOW YOU'RE
JUST MAKING STUFF UP.
MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING OUT
THERE BUT WE HAVEN'T SEEN IT.
HMMM, MAYBE WE SHOULD
GO ASK SOMEONE WHO HAS.
Later, at a swamp, they talk to Sneville.
Sneville is elderly male turtle with a white goatee and glasses. He wears a white hat and a stripped red-and-white shirt on his neck and front legs.
He says AND THEN I SAW
IT WITH MY OWN EYES -
A TERRIBLE SWAMP BEAST
LUMBERING TOWARDS ME.
I CAN REMEMBER IT
LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY.
Flick says IT WAS YESTERDAY!
Opal says I CAN SEE WHY THE PICTURE
YOU TOOK IS SO BLURRY.
YOU MUST HAVE BEEN
SHAKING LIKE A LEAF!
Harvey says WHAT DID YOU DO NEXT, SNEVILLE?
Sneville says WHY I RAN AWAY...
VERY SLOWLY.
Harvey says YOU'RE LUCKY BUGFOOT
DIDN'T CATCH YOU.
Flick says NOT SO SCARY IF HE'S
SLOWER THAN A TURTLE.
AND YOU SAY YOU SAW
HIM WITH YOUR OWN EYES?
Sneville says I SURE DID, OPAL!
Flick says UH, OPAL'S OVER THERE.
I REALLY DO
NEED NEW GLASSES.
ANYHOW,
BEST HURRY HOME.
DON'T WANT TO BE OUT
WITH BUGFOOT ABOUT.
Harvey says WOW!
IMAGINE SEEING BUGFOOT AND
LIVING TO TELLING THE TALE.
Opal says YOU HEARD SNEVILLE,
FLICK.
THERE'S PROOF THAT BUGFOOT
IS REALLY, REALLY REAL!
Flick says REALLY?
SNEVILLE COULDN'T
SEE US UP CLOSE!
HOW CAN WE BE SURE
HE SAW BUGFOOT?
TIME TO GO MONSTER HUNTING
AND SEE FOR OURSELVES!
Then, they walk between tall grasses in the marsh.
Opal says I DON'T THINK THIS IS
SUCH A GOOD IDEA, FLICK.
Harvey says OPAL'S RIGHT.
YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN
BUGFOOT MIGHT GET YOU.
AHHH!
HE'S GOT ME!
AHHH!
NO, NO
DON'T!
AHHH!
Flick says IT'S JUST A FLUFFY
MILKWEED SEED.
Harvey says PHEW!
THAT WAS CLOSE.
Flick says THAT'S WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU
TAKE OFF YOUR REPORTER'S HAT AND
START BELIEVING SILLY STORIES.
Opal says AH, GUYS?
THIS JUST IN!
There is a dark shadow in the fog and Flick yells HELLO?
WHO'S THERE?
Harvey says YOU GOTTA ASK?
Flick says IF THAT'S BUGFOOT,
THEN I'VE GOTTA GET CLOSER
TO GET A CLEAR PICTURE!
Flick flies closer, but Harvey catches him and says FLICK, DON'T!
DON'T YOU KNOW IT'S RUDE
TO TAKE SOMEONE'S PICTURE
WITHOUT ASKING?
Opal says LOOKOUT!
IT'S...
The fog clears and Flick says A BOTTLE!
Harvey says OH!
HEY, CHECK IT OUT!
Opal says YEAH, I SHOULD HAVE
KNOWN IT WASN'T BUGFOOT.
Flick says FINALLY!
Opal says APART FROM BEING SUPER
SCARY, BUGFOOT IS SUPER SHY.
Harvey says AND DON'T FORGET HIS WAIL!
Flick says HE WAILS?
Opal says LIKE CRAZY!
BUT IT'S MORE LIKE...
(DISTANT WAIL)
Opal says YEAH! YOU GOT IT, FLICK!
Flick says UH, THAT WASN'T ME.
(DISTANT WAIL)
Opal and Harvey yell BUGFOOT! BUGFOOT!
Flick says GUYS, WE CAN USE THIS!
KEEP WAILING TO LURE WHATEVER
THAT IS INTO THE OPEN.
THEN I CAN SNAP A CLEAR PICTURE.
Harvey sighs and says WE'RE GOING TO REGRET THIS.
They both wail.
(DISTANT WAIL)
Flick says WHAT IS THAT?
THIS IS ONE WEIRD MYSTERY.
A siren wails and Detective Debbie comes out of a nearby tree. She is a pink dragon fly and wears a blue police uniform.
The shutterbugs yell DETECTIVE DEBBIE!
Detective Debbie says SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG
TO GET HERE, SHUTTERBUGS.
I'VE BEEN GETTING CALLS
ABOUT WEIRD
She wails and continues SOUNDS ALL NIGHT.
Harvey says WE HEARD IT TOO!
Harvey and Opal wail.
Flick says CAN'T YOU SEE WHAT'S HAPPENED?
YOU'RE CALLING EACH OTHER!
THERE'S NO BUGFOOT.
END OF STORY.
Detective Debbie says HEH, YOU'RE PROBABLY
RIGHT, FLICK.
GUESS I JUST WENT ALL
HAIRY-BANANAS WHEN I FOUND
THAT GIANT FOOTPRINT ON
THE MUDDY PATH BACK THERE.
[A MUFFLED CALL COMES IN
OVER DEBBIE'S WALKIE TALKIE]
She continues ROGER THAT.
SORRY SHUTTERBUGS, GOTTA JET.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR STORY.
DEBS OUT!
Now, they take a look of the footprint.
Opal says LOOK AT THE SIZE
OF THAT FOOTPRINT!
Harvey says ONLY SOMETHING
AS BIG AS BUGFOOT
COULD HAVE MADE
THAT. UGH!
Opal says WHAT MORE PROOF DO YOU NEED!
SEEING BUGFOOT UP
Flick says CLOSE WITH MY OWN EYES!
(MOANING)
Flick continues HARVEY, STOP YOUR MOANING,
Harvey says IT'S GOING TO BE FINE.
THAT WASN'T ME.
(MOANING)
A white creature approaches in the distance.
Flick says BUGFOOT!?
Opal yells TAKE IT!
TAKE A PICTURE!
AND LET'S GET OUT OF
HERE BEFORE BUGFOOT...
BUGFOOTS US!
Flick says IT, IT CAN'T BE.
WE NEED TO MAKE SENSE OF
THIS, BY USING OUR SENSES!
The three little colourful worms from the office appear on screen and sing OOOH, WE CAN HELP WITH THAT.
TELL ME 'BOUT THE SENSES.
SEEING.
HEARING.
TELL ME MORE, TELL ME MORE.
SMELLING.
TASTING.
THERE'S ONE MORE
SENSE YOU KNOW.
OH YEAH, TOUCHING!
ALL FIVE SENSES.
NOW IT'S MAKING SENSE.
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
YOU GOTTA USE
ALL YOUR SENSES.
OH YEAH!
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
IT'S REALLY,
REALLY,
REALLY...
MAKING SENSE!
Back in the swamp, Bugfoot stomps closer.
Opal, Harvey, and Flick tap on their watches and glowing goggles appear on them.
Flick says HEY, BUGFOOT IS SUPPOSED
TO BE BIG AND HAIRY.
THIS GUY IS SMALL AND...
FLUFFY!?
Bugfoot moans and mumbles.
Flick flies closer and says HEY FELLA!
YOU TRYING TO SAY SOMETHING?
Harvey says YEAH!
MUST SUCK BUG BRAINS!
Flick says WAIT!
I CAN HEAR...
Bugfoot yells GET ME
OUT OF HERE!
Flick says FLOYD?
IS THAT YOU?
He pulls the hair from his face, which comes out.
Opal says WELL,
THAT'S DISAPPOINTING.
THIS WAS
JUST ONE BIG HOAX?
IT'S NOT A HOAX!
Floyd, the red and wearing a blue sweatshirt but still covered with white hair, says IT'S AN ACCIDENT.
Harvey says HUH?
Floyd says I WAS MUD SKIING WHEN I LOST
CONTROL AND HIT A MILKWEED.
I'VE BEEN GOING AROUND TRYING
TO GET HELP EVER SINCE.
Flick chuckles and says HERE'S YOUR BUGFOOT.
Harvey says HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN
THAT BIG FOOTPRINT?
Floyd says HUH! I GUESS MY BROKEN SKI
DOES KIND OF LOOK LIKE TOES.
Flick chuckles and says I DIDN'T BUY THAT
WHOLE BUGFOOT STORY
FOR A SECOND.
Opal says UH-HUH.
Flick says OKAY, MAYBE ONE SECOND.
BUT THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU
ALLOW YOUR IMAGINATION TO
RUN AWAY WITH YOU.
I'M STICKING TO THE
FACTS FROM NOW ON.
They pull the milkweed seeds from Floyd, who says GEE, I HAVEN'T BEEN
THIS CLEAN IN AGES.
TIME FOR
A MUD BATH!
Later that day, Flick finishes the news report and says DONE AND DONE!
HARVEY, RAISE THE ROOF!
Flick hits his watch and everyone says IT'S GLOW TIME!
The three glow worms appear on a big screen above the news office and they sing HERE'S THE LATEST BUZZ!
THEY WERE STUCK IN A MESS,
THEY HAD TO TAKE ACTION.
SHINE A LIGHT
ON THE SITUATION.
HOLD THE PRESSES.
TAKE A BREATH NOW.
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
AND THEY LOOKED ALL AROUND
AND THEY FOUND THE ANSWER...
BY USING THEIR 5 SENSES.
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
THEY BROKE THE STORY!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP, SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
AND THAT'S THE NEWS!
Later that evening, Gordon says GREAT
STORY SHUTTERBUGS!
YOU GOT THE BIG
SCOOP ON BUGFOOT!
UH, I MEAN FLOYD.
I HAVE TO ADMIT,
I'M DISAPPOINTED OUR MONSTER
DOESN'T EXIST.
Flick says YOU SHOULD STICK
WITH THE FACTS GORDON -
NOT WILD
MONSTER STORIES.
(GROAN)
Opal says OH HARVEY,
QUIT CLOWNING AROUND.
HARVEY?
Harvey walks in wailing, holding his arms to the front and muddy.
Opal and Flick yell AH!
THE REAL BUGFOOT!
Harvey says BUGFOOT?
NO, IT'S ME, HARVEY!
I WAS HELPING FLOYD
MUD BACK UP AND UH,
THINGS KIND OF GOT
OUT OF CONTROL.
IT'S TIME TO LIGHT THINGS UP.
The episode ends.
Flick flies through the night sky and says IT'S TIME TO LIGHT THINGS UP.
Now a shot of the forest city features the episode title that reads "The Day Time Stood Still."
[PHONE RINGING]
Flick looks at his watch.
Gordon says FLICK, YOU THERE?
WE'RE RUNNING OUT
OF TIME, COME QUICK!
Flick says BE THERE IN A FLASH, BOSS!
Flick flies to the news centre and then walks into the office with Harvey and Opal.
Flick says HEY GUYS, GOOD TIMING!
BUT UH, WHERE'S GORDON?
Harvey says HIDY-HO!
Opal says GORDON?
Gordon jumps out from a picture of a clock and says SHUTTERBUGS,
THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE HERE!
YOU WON'T BELIEVE
WHAT'S HAPPENED.
THE CLOCK-TOWER AT MARSH SQUARE
HASN'T CHANGED TIME ALL DAY.
IT'S AS IF TIME
IS STANDING STILL!
Harvey gasps and says THIS IS AMAZING!
Gordon says AMAZING?
WHY, THAT CLOCK IS
MURKY MARSH'S OLDEST LANDMARK
AND MOST RELIABLE
WAY OF TELLING TIME.
BY GOLLY, IT'S EVEN
100 YEARS OLD TODAY!
Opal says THAT'S BAD NEWS, HARVEY.
NOT GOOD.
Harvey says DON'T YOU GET IT?
IF TIME IS STANDING STILL, THAT
MEANS IT'S SUPPERTIME - FOREVER!
WOOHOO!
Flick says I DON'T THINK SO, PAL.
JUST BECAUSE THE CLOCK STOPS,
DOESN'T MEAN TIME STOPS.
Harvey holds a fork and a knife, and says ARE YOU
SURE ABOUT THAT?
Flick says DON'T WORRY,
GORDON.
WE'LL GET THE SCOOP AND SHED
SOME LIGHT ON THIS STORY.
The three glow worms sing I THINK...
WE CAN HELP.
WE CAN HELP.
WHEN YOU'RE IN THE DARK
OR LOST IN THE PARK
UH OH, WHAT?
DO YOU HEAR THAT FLY?
OH, WHAT'S THAT IN THE SKY?
ASK YOURSELF
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
LIGHT! REAL BRIGHT!
LET'S MAKE IT
ALL SHINE - ALL RIGHT!
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
EVERYTHING
WILL BE ALL RIGHT!
SHED SOME LIGHT!
Later, at the city centre, Flick says OKAY GUYS!
LET'S START WITH
THE THINGS WE KNOW.
WHO?
Harvey says UH, EVERYONE IN MURKY MARSH!
WHAT?
Opal says THE CLOCK-TOWER STOPPED.
WHERE?
Flick says AT MURKY MARSH SQUARE!
WHEN?
Harvey says AT SUPPER TIME!
WHY?
Opal says THAT'S WHAT WE'RE
GOING TO FIND OUT!
HOW?
Flick says THE CLOCK HASN'T STOPPED
IN A HUNDRED YEARS.
SO, HOW DO WE GET TO
THE BOTTOM OF THIS?
They all yell BY INVESTIGATING!
Now, they arrive to the square, where other bugs stand holding a silverware.
Harvey says GOODY, IT'S STILL SUPPERTIME.
Flick says IT'S ALWAYS GOING
TO BE SUPPERTIME
AS LONG AS THE CLOCK IS STUCK.
Harvey says BEST DAY EVER!
Opal says TECHNICALLY IT'S STUCK
ONE MINUTE BEFORE
SUPPER TIME, HARVEY.
JUST SAYING!
Harvey says WORST DAY EVER!
An earwig in an orange shirt says DOES THIS MEAN IT WILL
ALWAYS BE THE SAME DAY?
A ladybug wearing a blue shirt says I WAS SUPPOSED TO MEET MY
FRIEND FOR AFTER SUPPER...
NOW WHAT?
Flick says WOW, THIS FROZEN
CLOCK THING IS REALLY
STARTING TO CONFUSE PEOPLE.
Opal says SEEMS LIKE HARVEY'S
NOT THE ONLY ONE
WHO THINKS TIME'S
ACTUALLY STOPPED.
Harvey says AH, GENIUSES LIKE US
ARE OFTEN MISUNDERSTOOD.
Flick says COME ON.
LET'S CHECK OUT THE CLOCK.
They fly up to the clock and Flick tries to move the hands, but fails and says NOPE, THEY'RE STUCK ALL RIGHT.
THIS IS GOING TO TAKE
SOME REAL DETECTIVE WORK.
A siren wails, the bell tolls, and Detective Debbie comes out from inside the bell.
The shutterbugs yell DETECTIVE DEBBIE!
Detective Debbie says SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG
TO GET HERE, SHUTTERBUGS.
IT'S A REAL GONG-SHOW OUT THERE!
Flick says NO KIDDING.
EVERYONE'S UPSET OVER THE TIME.
Opal says THE CLOCK TOWER'S FROZEN
AT ONE MINUTE BEFORE 6 PM.
Harvey says WORSE!
ONE MINUTE BEFORE SUPPER TIME.
Detective Debbie says SO THAT'S WHY
EVERYONE'S SO WOUND UP.
[A MUFFLED CALL COMES IN
OVER DEBBIE'S WALKIE TALKIE]
She continues ROGER THAT.
SORRY SHUTTERBUGS, GOTTA JET!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR STORY!
DEBS OUT!
She disappears inside the bell and Opal says WHY WOULD THE TOWN'S
CLOCK SUDDENLY STOP
ON ITS 100TH ANNIVERSARY?
Flick says HEY, EVERY CLOCK
HAS A FACE, RIGHT?
IT'S WHAT'S BEHIND IT
THAT MAKES IT TICK.
COME ON!
They open a door behind the bell, which creaks and makes them sneeze and cough.
Inside, the mechanism of the clock is covered in dust.
Flick says WHOA, LOOKS
LIKE IT'S BEEN A LONG,
LONG TIME SINCE
ANYONE'S BEEN UP HERE.
Harvey gasps and says ALMOST LIKE
TIME'S STANDING STILL.
Opal says HARVEY,
THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
Flick says OPAL'S RIGHT.
WE JUST NEED TO MAKE SENSE
OF THIS, BY USING OUR SENSES!
The glow worms sing OOOOH, WE CAN HELP WITH THAT.
TELL ME 'BOUT THE SENSES.
SEEING.
HEARING.
TELL ME MORE, TELL ME MORE.
SMELLING.
TASTING.
THERE'S ONE MORE
SENSE YOU KNOW.
OH YEAH, TOUCHING!
ALL FIVE SENSES.
NOW IT'S MAKING SENSE.
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
YOU GOTTA USE
ALL YOUR SENSES.
OH YEAH!
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
IT'S REALLY,
REALLY,
REALLY...
MAKING SENSE!
Flick taps his watch and goggles appear on everyone?s faces.
They inspect everything around them and Flick says WOW, LOOK AT THE SIZE OF
THESE GEARS AND SPROCKETS.
THEY'RE HUGE!
Opal says AND EVERYTHING'S
SO OLD.
JUST LOOK AT ALL THE OLD
WRENCHES, AND CRANKS.
I'VE NEVER SEEN
ANYTHING LIKE IT.
A sparkly foam hand appears on Flick?s hand and he says I BET THEY GO BACK TO WHEN
THE CLOCK WAS FIRST BUILT.
Harvey says AND CHECK OUT THE RUST.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
Flick says THEY EVEN FEEL RUSTY,
AND SUPER DUSTY.
GROSS!
Opal sniffs and says AND IS IT ME, OR DOES
IT KIND OF SMELL MUSTY.
A sparkly nose appears on Harvey?s face. He sniffs and says PEE-YEW!
THAT'S MUSTY ALL RIGHT.
Flick says ANYTHING SOUND UNUSUAL?
Sparkly ears appear on Opal?s face and she says IT SOUNDS
OLD AND CREAKY,
JUST LIKE THE DOOR
DID WHEN WE OPENED IT.
Flick says OKAY, SO HERE'S
WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR.
THE CLOCK STOPPED TICKING
AT EXACTLY 5:59 PM.
Harvey says UMM, WHICH IS ALMOST SUPPERTIME.
SUPPER IS THE MOST IMPORTANT
MEAL OF THE DAY.
Flick says I THOUGHT THAT WAS BREAKFAST?
Harvey says SUPPER IS RIGHT UP THERE, FLICK.
TRUST ME.
Flick says UH-HUH.
OKAY, SO WHAT DID WE
LEARN USING OUR SENSES?
Opal says WE SAW THAT ALL THE PARTS
THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO MAKE
THE CLOCK HANDS TURN ARE
REALLY OLD AND RUSTY.
Harvey says AND IT SMELLS REALLY MUSTY,
LIKE NOBODY'S BEEN UP
HERE IN A HUNDRED YEARS!
Flick says RIGHT!
AND WHEN WE TOUCHED THE
CLOCK PARTS WE DISCOVERED
A LAYER OF DUST AND RUST.
Opal says DON'T FORGET
THE SOUND.
EVERYTHING IS
SLOW AND CREAKY.
Flick says SO, WE KNOW THE
CLOCK ISN'T TICKING,
BUT SOME PEOPLE ARE WORRIED
THAT TIME HAS ACTUALLY STOPPED.
RIGHT,
BUT TIME NEVER STOPS.
Harvey says YOU'RE SURE
ABOUT THAT, RIGHT?
MISSING SUPPER'S ONE THING,
BUT WHAT IF I NEVER
HAVE BREAKFAST AGAIN?
OR LUNCH!
Opal says WHEN A CLOCK STOPS TICKING,
IT DOESN'T MEAN TIME STOPS.
Flick says EXACTLY!
DOES A BLACK AND WHITE
PHOTO MEAN THE WORLD
REALLY IS
BLACK AND WHITE?
Harvey says PFFT! OF COURSE NOT.
HMM, MAYBE I AM
BEING A LITTLE SILLY.
Opal says SEE, NO NEED TO
GET WOUND UP HARV.
WOUND UP.
DETECTIVE DEBBIE
ALREADY HAS ENOUGH
WOUND-UP BUGS TO DEAL WITH.
WAIT!
WOUND UP!
I THINK THAT'S
THE PROBLEM.
THE CLOCK HASN'T BEEN
WOUND IN A LONG TIME.
BUT HOW DO YOU WIND A CLOCK WHEN
IT'S RUSTED AND NOTHING MOVES?
Opal finds an oil applicator around and says OIL SHOULD HELP!
PERFECT!
Harvey applies oil to the gears, and Opal says THAT OUGHT TO GET THINGS MOVING.
BUT IT SAYS HERE OLD TIME
CLOCKS NEED A SPECIAL
BUTTERFLY KEY FOR WINDING.
She holds a tablet and Flick says WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE?
COOL, JUST LIKE ITS NAME.
A BUTTERFLY!
Harvey says GUYS,
IS THIS-- EEEEE...
He holds the key, but slips over oil on the floor, and yells WHOA!
WHOA WHOA!
He crashes the cuckoo which starts working.
Opal and Flick yell HARVEY!
Harvey says I THOUGHT THIS
THING WAS BROKEN!
HEY!
I THINK I FOUND...
THE KEY!
OOOF!
He moans and falls.
Flick says WOW, HEH.
GUESS THERE WAS JUST
ENOUGH POWER FOR THE CUCKOO
TO CUCKOO ONE LAST TIME.
Harvey says YOU DON'T SAY.
Opal says BUT THIS KEY SHOULD GET IT
BACK UP AND RUNNING FOR GOOD!
GREAT JOB, HARV.
LET'S WIND IT UP!
Opal puts the key in the keyhole and Harvey says ANYTHING?
They all push together, manage to turn the key, and yell YAH!
The gears start turning and Flick says IT'S WORKING AGAIN!
WAIT, EVEN THOUGH THE CLOCK
IS TICKING, THE TIME IS WRONG.
HOW ARE WE GOING TO
ADJUST THE CLOCK IF WE
DON'T KNOW THE REAL TIME?
Opal holds the tablet and says IN ANCIENT TIMES, THEY USED
A SUN DIAL TO TELL TIME.
THE SUN WILL BE OUT SOON.
MAYBE WE CAN DO THE SAME!
Opal looks at a sparkly sun dial on her wrist and yells BIG HAND
ON THE 12.
Harvey adjusts the minute hand and says BIG HAND ON THE 12.
Opal says LITTLE HAND
ON THE 5.
Flick adjusts the hour hand and says LITTLE HAND ON THE 5.
THAT MEANS IT'S 5
O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING!
The clock works again and the people at the foot of the tower yell IT'S WORKING!
Opal says WE DID IT!
Flick says WE SURE DID!
BUT LOOK AT THE TIME.
COME ON, WE'VE GOTTA
STORY TO PUT TOGETHER!
Later that day, Flick finishes the news report and says DONE AND DONE!
HARVEY, RAISE THE ROOF!
Flick hits his watch and everyone says IT'S GLOW TIME!
The three glow worms appear on a big screen above the news office and they sing HERE'S THE LATEST BUZZ!
THEY WERE STUCK IN A MESS,
THEY HAD TO TAKE ACTION.
SHINE A LIGHT
ON THE SITUATION.
HOLD THE PRESSES.
TAKE A BREATH NOW.
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
AND THEY LOOKED ALL AROUND
AND THEY FOUND THE ANSWER...
BY USING THEIR 5 SENSES.
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
THEY BROKE THE STORY!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP, SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
AND THAT'S THE NEWS!
Back in the office, Gordon holds a sun dial and says GREAT STORY SHUTTERBUGS.
IT'S GOOD TO KNOW THE CLOCK
IS UP AND RUNNING AGAIN,
AND THAT TIME NEVER
ACTUALLY STOPPED.
Flick says YEAH, I THINK WE WERE ALL GOING
A LITTLE CUCKOO THERE FOR A BIT.
Opal says NO KIDDING.
THAT WAS A LONG NIGHT.
TIME FOR BEDDY-BYE.
Harvey says AND YOU KNOW
WHAT THAT MEANS?
BEDTIME SNACK - THE MOST
IMPORTANT MEAL OF THE DAY!
OR SOMEWHERE IN THE TOP TEN.
They laugh.

Flick appears on screen and says IT'S TIME TO LIGHT THINGS UP.
Flick is a firefly who wears a pink beanie, a brown T-shirt, black pants, and blue shoes. He has little tiny glowing wings that flutter behind him.
The song goes SHUTTERBUGS!
Flick flies throw the pond past a large toad and through leaves and cattails.
The song continues NA NA NA NA-NA-NA-NA
SHUTTERBUGS!
He flies into a lit-up city made of mushrooms and tree trunks flying past Harvey eating a watermelon and Opal reading a book in a hammock. Harvey is a large blue fly that wears a blue shirt and black pants. Opal is a spider wearing a green shirt and black pants on 8 legs.
The song continues NA NA NA NA-NA-NA-NA
SHUTTERBUGS!
SHUTTERBUGS
Flick, Harvey, and Opal fly by the title written in the sky that reads "Shutterbugs."
The episode title reads "Bugfoot."
[PHONE RINGING]
Flick looks at his watch and Gordon says FLICK, YOU THERE?
I HAVE A MONSTER
OF A STORY FOR YOU.
Gordon is an older caterpillar with a white goatee and glasses.
Flick says BE THERE IN A FLASH, BOSS!
Flick flies into the news centre.
Then, Flick, Harvey, and Opal walk into Gordon?s office and Flick says HEY GUYS, GOOD TIMING!
BUT UH, WHERE'S GORDON?
Opal says GORDON?
Harvey says G TO THE
ORDO!
Gordon jumps out from a picture of the entrance of a cave and says SHUTTERBUGS!
THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE HERE!
WE JUST GOT THIS IN FROM
SNEVILLE THE TURTLE.
They look at a screen, where there is a blurry picture of a white creature in the woods, gasp and yell WHAT IS THAT?
Gordon says HE HAS MANY NAMES -
SWAMPSQUATCH, MARSHY.
BUT IN THESE PARTS
HE'S SIMPLY KNOWN AS...
Harvey says BUGFOOT!
Flick says C'MON, THAT'S JUST
A BLURRY PHOTO!
EVERYONE KNOWS
BUGFOOT ISN'T REAL.
OPAL, BACK ME UP HERE.
Opal says SORRY, FLICK.
EVERYONE'S HEARD
BUGFOOT STORIES.
THERE'S GOT TO BE
SOME TRUTH TO THEM.
Gordon says AND THERE WERE SIGHTINGS ALL
OVER MURKY MARSH LAST NIGHT.
I NEED THE SHUTTERBUGS TO GET
A CLEARER PICTURE OF BUGFOOT.
Opal and Harvey gulp, and f1 says WE'LL GET THE SCOOP, AND SHED
SOME LIGHT ON THE STORY.
The three bugs in the office sit at their desks and say I THINK...
They start to sing WE CAN HELP.
WE CAN HELP.
WHEN YOU'RE IN THE DARK
OR LOST IN THE PARK
UH OH, WHAT?
DO YOU HEAR THAT FLY?
OH, WHAT'S THAT IN THE SKY?
ASK YOURSELF
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
LIGHT! REAL BRIGHT!
LET'S MAKE IT
ALL SHINE - ALL RIGHT!
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
EVERYTHING
WILL BE ALL RIGHT!
SHED SOME LIGHT!
Later on, Flick and the bugs walk in a spooky forest.
Flick says OKAY, LET'S START WITH
THE THINGS WE KNOW?
WHO?
Harvey says BUGFOOT!
WHAT?
Opal says HE'S A BIG
HAIRY BUG MONSTER.
WHERE?
Flick says RIGHT HERE IN MURKY MARSH.
WHEN?
Opal says LAST NIGHT!
WHY?
Harvey says TO SUCK BUG BRAINS!
Flick says OKAY, NOW YOU'RE
JUST MAKING STUFF UP.
MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING OUT
THERE BUT WE HAVEN'T SEEN IT.
HMMM, MAYBE WE SHOULD
GO ASK SOMEONE WHO HAS.
Later, at a swamp, they talk to Sneville.
Sneville is elderly male turtle with a white goatee and glasses. He wears a white hat and a stripped red-and-white shirt on his neck and front legs.
He says AND THEN I SAW
IT WITH MY OWN EYES -
A TERRIBLE SWAMP BEAST
LUMBERING TOWARDS ME.
I CAN REMEMBER IT
LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY.
Flick says IT WAS YESTERDAY!
Opal says I CAN SEE WHY THE PICTURE
YOU TOOK IS SO BLURRY.
YOU MUST HAVE BEEN
SHAKING LIKE A LEAF!
Harvey says WHAT DID YOU DO NEXT, SNEVILLE?
Sneville says WHY I RAN AWAY...
VERY SLOWLY.
Harvey says YOU'RE LUCKY BUGFOOT
DIDN'T CATCH YOU.
Flick says NOT SO SCARY IF HE'S
SLOWER THAN A TURTLE.
AND YOU SAY YOU SAW
HIM WITH YOUR OWN EYES?
Sneville says I SURE DID, OPAL!
Flick says UH, OPAL'S OVER THERE.
I REALLY DO
NEED NEW GLASSES.
ANYHOW,
BEST HURRY HOME.
DON'T WANT TO BE OUT
WITH BUGFOOT ABOUT.
Harvey says WOW!
IMAGINE SEEING BUGFOOT AND
LIVING TO TELLING THE TALE.
Opal says YOU HEARD SNEVILLE,
FLICK.
THERE'S PROOF THAT BUGFOOT
IS REALLY, REALLY REAL!
Flick says REALLY?
SNEVILLE COULDN'T
SEE US UP CLOSE!
HOW CAN WE BE SURE
HE SAW BUGFOOT?
TIME TO GO MONSTER HUNTING
AND SEE FOR OURSELVES!
Then, they walk between tall grasses in the marsh.
Opal says I DON'T THINK THIS IS
SUCH A GOOD IDEA, FLICK.
Harvey says OPAL'S RIGHT.
YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN
BUGFOOT MIGHT GET YOU.
AHHH!
HE'S GOT ME!
AHHH!
NO, NO
DON'T!
AHHH!
Flick says IT'S JUST A FLUFFY
MILKWEED SEED.
Harvey says PHEW!
THAT WAS CLOSE.
Flick says THAT'S WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU
TAKE OFF YOUR REPORTER'S HAT AND
START BELIEVING SILLY STORIES.
Opal says AH, GUYS?
THIS JUST IN!
There is a dark shadow in the fog and Flick yells HELLO?
WHO'S THERE?
Harvey says YOU GOTTA ASK?
Flick says IF THAT'S BUGFOOT,
THEN I'VE GOTTA GET CLOSER
TO GET A CLEAR PICTURE!
Flick flies closer, but Harvey catches him and says FLICK, DON'T!
DON'T YOU KNOW IT'S RUDE
TO TAKE SOMEONE'S PICTURE
WITHOUT ASKING?
Opal says LOOKOUT!
IT'S...
The fog clears and Flick says A BOTTLE!
Harvey says OH!
HEY, CHECK IT OUT!
Opal says YEAH, I SHOULD HAVE
KNOWN IT WASN'T BUGFOOT.
Flick says FINALLY!
Opal says APART FROM BEING SUPER
SCARY, BUGFOOT IS SUPER SHY.
Harvey says AND DON'T FORGET HIS WAIL!
Flick says HE WAILS?
Opal says LIKE CRAZY!
BUT IT'S MORE LIKE...
(DISTANT WAIL)
Opal says YEAH! YOU GOT IT, FLICK!
Flick says UH, THAT WASN'T ME.
(DISTANT WAIL)
Opal and Harvey yell BUGFOOT! BUGFOOT!
Flick says GUYS, WE CAN USE THIS!
KEEP WAILING TO LURE WHATEVER
THAT IS INTO THE OPEN.
THEN I CAN SNAP A CLEAR PICTURE.
Harvey sighs and says WE'RE GOING TO REGRET THIS.
They both wail.
(DISTANT WAIL)
Flick says WHAT IS THAT?
THIS IS ONE WEIRD MYSTERY.
A siren wails and Detective Debbie comes out of a nearby tree. She is a pink dragon fly and wears a blue police uniform.
The shutterbugs yell DETECTIVE DEBBIE!
Detective Debbie says SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG
TO GET HERE, SHUTTERBUGS.
I'VE BEEN GETTING CALLS
ABOUT WEIRD
She wails and continues SOUNDS ALL NIGHT.
Harvey says WE HEARD IT TOO!
Harvey and Opal wail.
Flick says CAN'T YOU SEE WHAT'S HAPPENED?
YOU'RE CALLING EACH OTHER!
THERE'S NO BUGFOOT.
END OF STORY.
Detective Debbie says HEH, YOU'RE PROBABLY
RIGHT, FLICK.
GUESS I JUST WENT ALL
HAIRY-BANANAS WHEN I FOUND
THAT GIANT FOOTPRINT ON
THE MUDDY PATH BACK THERE.
[A MUFFLED CALL COMES IN
OVER DEBBIE'S WALKIE TALKIE]
She continues ROGER THAT.
SORRY SHUTTERBUGS, GOTTA JET.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR STORY.
DEBS OUT!
Now, they take a look of the footprint.
Opal says LOOK AT THE SIZE
OF THAT FOOTPRINT!
Harvey says ONLY SOMETHING
AS BIG AS BUGFOOT
COULD HAVE MADE
THAT. UGH!
Opal says WHAT MORE PROOF DO YOU NEED!
SEEING BUGFOOT UP
Flick says CLOSE WITH MY OWN EYES!
(MOANING)
Flick continues HARVEY, STOP YOUR MOANING,
Harvey says IT'S GOING TO BE FINE.
THAT WASN'T ME.
(MOANING)
A white creature approaches in the distance.
Flick says BUGFOOT!?
Opal yells TAKE IT!
TAKE A PICTURE!
AND LET'S GET OUT OF
HERE BEFORE BUGFOOT...
BUGFOOTS US!
Flick says IT, IT CAN'T BE.
WE NEED TO MAKE SENSE OF
THIS, BY USING OUR SENSES!
The three little colourful worms from the office appear on screen and sing OOOH, WE CAN HELP WITH THAT.
TELL ME 'BOUT THE SENSES.
SEEING.
HEARING.
TELL ME MORE, TELL ME MORE.
SMELLING.
TASTING.
THERE'S ONE MORE
SENSE YOU KNOW.
OH YEAH, TOUCHING!
ALL FIVE SENSES.
NOW IT'S MAKING SENSE.
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
YOU GOTTA USE
ALL YOUR SENSES.
OH YEAH!
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
IT'S REALLY,
REALLY,
REALLY...
MAKING SENSE!
Back in the swamp, Bugfoot stomps closer.
Opal, Harvey, and Flick tap on their watches and glowing goggles appear on them.
Flick says HEY, BUGFOOT IS SUPPOSED
TO BE BIG AND HAIRY.
THIS GUY IS SMALL AND...
FLUFFY!?
Bugfoot moans and mumbles.
Flick flies closer and says HEY FELLA!
YOU TRYING TO SAY SOMETHING?
Harvey says YEAH!
MUST SUCK BUG BRAINS!
Flick says WAIT!
I CAN HEAR...
Bugfoot yells GET ME
OUT OF HERE!
Flick says FLOYD?
IS THAT YOU?
He pulls the hair from his face, which comes out.
Opal says WELL,
THAT'S DISAPPOINTING.
THIS WAS
JUST ONE BIG HOAX?
IT'S NOT A HOAX!
Floyd, the red and wearing a blue sweatshirt but still covered with white hair, says IT'S AN ACCIDENT.
Harvey says HUH?
Floyd says I WAS MUD SKIING WHEN I LOST
CONTROL AND HIT A MILKWEED.
I'VE BEEN GOING AROUND TRYING
TO GET HELP EVER SINCE.
Flick chuckles and says HERE'S YOUR BUGFOOT.
Harvey says HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN
THAT BIG FOOTPRINT?
Floyd says HUH! I GUESS MY BROKEN SKI
DOES KIND OF LOOK LIKE TOES.
Flick chuckles and says I DIDN'T BUY THAT
WHOLE BUGFOOT STORY
FOR A SECOND.
Opal says UH-HUH.
Flick says OKAY, MAYBE ONE SECOND.
BUT THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU
ALLOW YOUR IMAGINATION TO
RUN AWAY WITH YOU.
I'M STICKING TO THE
FACTS FROM NOW ON.
They pull the milkweed seeds from Floyd, who says GEE, I HAVEN'T BEEN
THIS CLEAN IN AGES.
TIME FOR
A MUD BATH!
Later that day, Flick finishes the news report and says DONE AND DONE!
HARVEY, RAISE THE ROOF!
Flick hits his watch and everyone says IT'S GLOW TIME!
The three glow worms appear on a big screen above the news office and they sing HERE'S THE LATEST BUZZ!
THEY WERE STUCK IN A MESS,
THEY HAD TO TAKE ACTION.
SHINE A LIGHT
ON THE SITUATION.
HOLD THE PRESSES.
TAKE A BREATH NOW.
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
AND THEY LOOKED ALL AROUND
AND THEY FOUND THE ANSWER...
BY USING THEIR 5 SENSES.
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
THEY BROKE THE STORY!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP, SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
AND THAT'S THE NEWS!
Later that evening, Gordon says GREAT
STORY SHUTTERBUGS!
YOU GOT THE BIG
SCOOP ON BUGFOOT!
UH, I MEAN FLOYD.
I HAVE TO ADMIT,
I'M DISAPPOINTED OUR MONSTER
DOESN'T EXIST.
Flick says YOU SHOULD STICK
WITH THE FACTS GORDON -
NOT WILD
MONSTER STORIES.
(GROAN)
Opal says OH HARVEY,
QUIT CLOWNING AROUND.
HARVEY?
Harvey walks in wailing, holding his arms to the front and muddy.
Opal and Flick yell AH!
THE REAL BUGFOOT!
Harvey says BUGFOOT?
NO, IT'S ME, HARVEY!
I WAS HELPING FLOYD
MUD BACK UP AND UH,
THINGS KIND OF GOT
OUT OF CONTROL.
IT'S TIME TO LIGHT THINGS UP.
The episode ends.
Flick flies through the night sky and says IT'S TIME TO LIGHT THINGS UP.
Now a shot of the forest city features the episode title that reads "The Day Time Stood Still."
[PHONE RINGING]
Flick looks at his watch.
Gordon says FLICK, YOU THERE?
WE'RE RUNNING OUT
OF TIME, COME QUICK!
Flick says BE THERE IN A FLASH, BOSS!
Flick flies to the news centre and then walks into the office with Harvey and Opal.
Flick says HEY GUYS, GOOD TIMING!
BUT UH, WHERE'S GORDON?
Harvey says HIDY-HO!
Opal says GORDON?
Gordon jumps out from a picture of a clock and says SHUTTERBUGS,
THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE HERE!
YOU WON'T BELIEVE
WHAT'S HAPPENED.
THE CLOCK-TOWER AT MARSH SQUARE
HASN'T CHANGED TIME ALL DAY.
IT'S AS IF TIME
IS STANDING STILL!
Harvey gasps and says THIS IS AMAZING!
Gordon says AMAZING?
WHY, THAT CLOCK IS
MURKY MARSH'S OLDEST LANDMARK
AND MOST RELIABLE
WAY OF TELLING TIME.
BY GOLLY, IT'S EVEN
100 YEARS OLD TODAY!
Opal says THAT'S BAD NEWS, HARVEY.
NOT GOOD.
Harvey says DON'T YOU GET IT?
IF TIME IS STANDING STILL, THAT
MEANS IT'S SUPPERTIME - FOREVER!
WOOHOO!
Flick says I DON'T THINK SO, PAL.
JUST BECAUSE THE CLOCK STOPS,
DOESN'T MEAN TIME STOPS.
Harvey holds a fork and a knife, and says ARE YOU
SURE ABOUT THAT?
Flick says DON'T WORRY,
GORDON.
WE'LL GET THE SCOOP AND SHED
SOME LIGHT ON THIS STORY.
The three glow worms sing I THINK...
WE CAN HELP.
WE CAN HELP.
WHEN YOU'RE IN THE DARK
OR LOST IN THE PARK
UH OH, WHAT?
DO YOU HEAR THAT FLY?
OH, WHAT'S THAT IN THE SKY?
ASK YOURSELF
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
LIGHT! REAL BRIGHT!
LET'S MAKE IT
ALL SHINE - ALL RIGHT!
IT'S TIME
WE SHED SOME LIGHT!
EVERYTHING
WILL BE ALL RIGHT!
SHED SOME LIGHT!
Later, at the city centre, Flick says OKAY GUYS!
LET'S START WITH
THE THINGS WE KNOW.
WHO?
Harvey says UH, EVERYONE IN MURKY MARSH!
WHAT?
Opal says THE CLOCK-TOWER STOPPED.
WHERE?
Flick says AT MURKY MARSH SQUARE!
WHEN?
Harvey says AT SUPPER TIME!
WHY?
Opal says THAT'S WHAT WE'RE
GOING TO FIND OUT!
HOW?
Flick says THE CLOCK HASN'T STOPPED
IN A HUNDRED YEARS.
SO, HOW DO WE GET TO
THE BOTTOM OF THIS?
They all yell BY INVESTIGATING!
Now, they arrive to the square, where other bugs stand holding a silverware.
Harvey says GOODY, IT'S STILL SUPPERTIME.
Flick says IT'S ALWAYS GOING
TO BE SUPPERTIME
AS LONG AS THE CLOCK IS STUCK.
Harvey says BEST DAY EVER!
Opal says TECHNICALLY IT'S STUCK
ONE MINUTE BEFORE
SUPPER TIME, HARVEY.
JUST SAYING!
Harvey says WORST DAY EVER!
An earwig in an orange shirt says DOES THIS MEAN IT WILL
ALWAYS BE THE SAME DAY?
A ladybug wearing a blue shirt says I WAS SUPPOSED TO MEET MY
FRIEND FOR AFTER SUPPER...
NOW WHAT?
Flick says WOW, THIS FROZEN
CLOCK THING IS REALLY
STARTING TO CONFUSE PEOPLE.
Opal says SEEMS LIKE HARVEY'S
NOT THE ONLY ONE
WHO THINKS TIME'S
ACTUALLY STOPPED.
Harvey says AH, GENIUSES LIKE US
ARE OFTEN MISUNDERSTOOD.
Flick says COME ON.
LET'S CHECK OUT THE CLOCK.
They fly up to the clock and Flick tries to move the hands, but fails and says NOPE, THEY'RE STUCK ALL RIGHT.
THIS IS GOING TO TAKE
SOME REAL DETECTIVE WORK.
A siren wails, the bell tolls, and Detective Debbie comes out from inside the bell.
The shutterbugs yell DETECTIVE DEBBIE!
Detective Debbie says SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG
TO GET HERE, SHUTTERBUGS.
IT'S A REAL GONG-SHOW OUT THERE!
Flick says NO KIDDING.
EVERYONE'S UPSET OVER THE TIME.
Opal says THE CLOCK TOWER'S FROZEN
AT ONE MINUTE BEFORE 6 PM.
Harvey says WORSE!
ONE MINUTE BEFORE SUPPER TIME.
Detective Debbie says SO THAT'S WHY
EVERYONE'S SO WOUND UP.
[A MUFFLED CALL COMES IN
OVER DEBBIE'S WALKIE TALKIE]
She continues ROGER THAT.
SORRY SHUTTERBUGS, GOTTA JET!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR STORY!
DEBS OUT!
She disappears inside the bell and Opal says WHY WOULD THE TOWN'S
CLOCK SUDDENLY STOP
ON ITS 100TH ANNIVERSARY?
Flick says HEY, EVERY CLOCK
HAS A FACE, RIGHT?
IT'S WHAT'S BEHIND IT
THAT MAKES IT TICK.
COME ON!
They open a door behind the bell, which creaks and makes them sneeze and cough.
Inside, the mechanism of the clock is covered in dust.
Flick says WHOA, LOOKS
LIKE IT'S BEEN A LONG,
LONG TIME SINCE
ANYONE'S BEEN UP HERE.
Harvey gasps and says ALMOST LIKE
TIME'S STANDING STILL.
Opal says HARVEY,
THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
Flick says OPAL'S RIGHT.
WE JUST NEED TO MAKE SENSE
OF THIS, BY USING OUR SENSES!
The glow worms sing OOOOH, WE CAN HELP WITH THAT.
TELL ME 'BOUT THE SENSES.
SEEING.
HEARING.
TELL ME MORE, TELL ME MORE.
SMELLING.
TASTING.
THERE'S ONE MORE
SENSE YOU KNOW.
OH YEAH, TOUCHING!
ALL FIVE SENSES.
NOW IT'S MAKING SENSE.
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
YOU GOTTA USE
ALL YOUR SENSES.
OH YEAH!
LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA.
IT'S REALLY,
REALLY,
REALLY...
MAKING SENSE!
Flick taps his watch and goggles appear on everyone?s faces.
They inspect everything around them and Flick says WOW, LOOK AT THE SIZE OF
THESE GEARS AND SPROCKETS.
THEY'RE HUGE!
Opal says AND EVERYTHING'S
SO OLD.
JUST LOOK AT ALL THE OLD
WRENCHES, AND CRANKS.
I'VE NEVER SEEN
ANYTHING LIKE IT.
A sparkly foam hand appears on Flick?s hand and he says I BET THEY GO BACK TO WHEN
THE CLOCK WAS FIRST BUILT.
Harvey says AND CHECK OUT THE RUST.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
Flick says THEY EVEN FEEL RUSTY,
AND SUPER DUSTY.
GROSS!
Opal sniffs and says AND IS IT ME, OR DOES
IT KIND OF SMELL MUSTY.
A sparkly nose appears on Harvey?s face. He sniffs and says PEE-YEW!
THAT'S MUSTY ALL RIGHT.
Flick says ANYTHING SOUND UNUSUAL?
Sparkly ears appear on Opal?s face and she says IT SOUNDS
OLD AND CREAKY,
JUST LIKE THE DOOR
DID WHEN WE OPENED IT.
Flick says OKAY, SO HERE'S
WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR.
THE CLOCK STOPPED TICKING
AT EXACTLY 5:59 PM.
Harvey says UMM, WHICH IS ALMOST SUPPERTIME.
SUPPER IS THE MOST IMPORTANT
MEAL OF THE DAY.
Flick says I THOUGHT THAT WAS BREAKFAST?
Harvey says SUPPER IS RIGHT UP THERE, FLICK.
TRUST ME.
Flick says UH-HUH.
OKAY, SO WHAT DID WE
LEARN USING OUR SENSES?
Opal says WE SAW THAT ALL THE PARTS
THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO MAKE
THE CLOCK HANDS TURN ARE
REALLY OLD AND RUSTY.
Harvey says AND IT SMELLS REALLY MUSTY,
LIKE NOBODY'S BEEN UP
HERE IN A HUNDRED YEARS!
Flick says RIGHT!
AND WHEN WE TOUCHED THE
CLOCK PARTS WE DISCOVERED
A LAYER OF DUST AND RUST.
Opal says DON'T FORGET
THE SOUND.
EVERYTHING IS
SLOW AND CREAKY.
Flick says SO, WE KNOW THE
CLOCK ISN'T TICKING,
BUT SOME PEOPLE ARE WORRIED
THAT TIME HAS ACTUALLY STOPPED.
RIGHT,
BUT TIME NEVER STOPS.
Harvey says YOU'RE SURE
ABOUT THAT, RIGHT?
MISSING SUPPER'S ONE THING,
BUT WHAT IF I NEVER
HAVE BREAKFAST AGAIN?
OR LUNCH!
Opal says WHEN A CLOCK STOPS TICKING,
IT DOESN'T MEAN TIME STOPS.
Flick says EXACTLY!
DOES A BLACK AND WHITE
PHOTO MEAN THE WORLD
REALLY IS
BLACK AND WHITE?
Harvey says PFFT! OF COURSE NOT.
HMM, MAYBE I AM
BEING A LITTLE SILLY.
Opal says SEE, NO NEED TO
GET WOUND UP HARV.
WOUND UP.
DETECTIVE DEBBIE
ALREADY HAS ENOUGH
WOUND-UP BUGS TO DEAL WITH.
WAIT!
WOUND UP!
I THINK THAT'S
THE PROBLEM.
THE CLOCK HASN'T BEEN
WOUND IN A LONG TIME.
BUT HOW DO YOU WIND A CLOCK WHEN
IT'S RUSTED AND NOTHING MOVES?
Opal finds an oil applicator around and says OIL SHOULD HELP!
PERFECT!
Harvey applies oil to the gears, and Opal says THAT OUGHT TO GET THINGS MOVING.
BUT IT SAYS HERE OLD TIME
CLOCKS NEED A SPECIAL
BUTTERFLY KEY FOR WINDING.
She holds a tablet and Flick says WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE?
COOL, JUST LIKE ITS NAME.
A BUTTERFLY!
Harvey says GUYS,
IS THIS-- EEEEE...
He holds the key, but slips over oil on the floor, and yells WHOA!
WHOA WHOA!
He crashes the cuckoo which starts working.
Opal and Flick yell HARVEY!
Harvey says I THOUGHT THIS
THING WAS BROKEN!
HEY!
I THINK I FOUND...
THE KEY!
OOOF!
He moans and falls.
Flick says WOW, HEH.
GUESS THERE WAS JUST
ENOUGH POWER FOR THE CUCKOO
TO CUCKOO ONE LAST TIME.
Harvey says YOU DON'T SAY.
Opal says BUT THIS KEY SHOULD GET IT
BACK UP AND RUNNING FOR GOOD!
GREAT JOB, HARV.
LET'S WIND IT UP!
Opal puts the key in the keyhole and Harvey says ANYTHING?
They all push together, manage to turn the key, and yell YAH!
The gears start turning and Flick says IT'S WORKING AGAIN!
WAIT, EVEN THOUGH THE CLOCK
IS TICKING, THE TIME IS WRONG.
HOW ARE WE GOING TO
ADJUST THE CLOCK IF WE
DON'T KNOW THE REAL TIME?
Opal holds the tablet and says IN ANCIENT TIMES, THEY USED
A SUN DIAL TO TELL TIME.
THE SUN WILL BE OUT SOON.
MAYBE WE CAN DO THE SAME!
Opal looks at a sparkly sun dial on her wrist and yells BIG HAND
ON THE 12.
Harvey adjusts the minute hand and says BIG HAND ON THE 12.
Opal says LITTLE HAND
ON THE 5.
Flick adjusts the hour hand and says LITTLE HAND ON THE 5.
THAT MEANS IT'S 5
O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING!
The clock works again and the people at the foot of the tower yell IT'S WORKING!
Opal says WE DID IT!
Flick says WE SURE DID!
BUT LOOK AT THE TIME.
COME ON, WE'VE GOTTA
STORY TO PUT TOGETHER!
Later that day, Flick finishes the news report and says DONE AND DONE!
HARVEY, RAISE THE ROOF!
Flick hits his watch and everyone says IT'S GLOW TIME!
The three glow worms appear on a big screen above the news office and they sing HERE'S THE LATEST BUZZ!
THEY WERE STUCK IN A MESS,
THEY HAD TO TAKE ACTION.
SHINE A LIGHT
ON THE SITUATION.
HOLD THE PRESSES.
TAKE A BREATH NOW.
WHO, WHAT, WHERE,
WHEN, WHY, AND HOW.
AND THEY LOOKED ALL AROUND
AND THEY FOUND THE ANSWER...
BY USING THEIR 5 SENSES.
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
THEY BROKE THE STORY!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP!
THEY GOT THE SCOOP.
SCOOP, SCOOP!
THIS JUST IN...
AND THAT'S THE NEWS!
Back in the office, Gordon holds a sun dial and says GREAT STORY SHUTTERBUGS.
IT'S GOOD TO KNOW THE CLOCK
IS UP AND RUNNING AGAIN,
AND THAT TIME NEVER
ACTUALLY STOPPED.
Flick says YEAH, I THINK WE WERE ALL GOING
A LITTLE CUCKOO THERE FOR A BIT.
Opal says NO KIDDING.
THAT WAS A LONG NIGHT.
TIME FOR BEDDY-BYE.
Harvey says AND YOU KNOW
WHAT THAT MEANS?
BEDTIME SNACK - THE MOST
IMPORTANT MEAL OF THE DAY!
OR SOMEWHERE IN THE TOP TEN.
They laugh.
