Transcript: How can I breathe underwater like a fish?
(LIVELY ELECTRONIC MUSIC)
In animation, two aliens fly across space in a spaceship.
Blynk is a rectangular green alien with spiky hair and long fangs.
Aazoo is a round orange alien with 3 eyes.
With the help of M.A.V.I.S., the spaceship computer, and real Earth scientists, they listen to real Earth children's questions and try to find answers.
A song plays that says BLYNK AND AAZOO
I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU
The name of the show reads "Blynk and Aazoo. Imagine, investigate, invent!"
(LIVELY ELECTRONIC MUSIC)
(SNORING)
Aazoo sleeps on his chair as Blynk works on the computer.
(ALARM RINGS)
M.A.V.I.S. says INCOMING INQUIRY,
INCOMING INQUIRY.
CAPTAIN, INQUIRY
BOOTH TRANSMITTING.
INCOMING INQUIRY.
Blynk tries to wake Aazoo up and says AAZOO, AAZOO, AAZOO, AAZOO!
A real life girl named Ebru pops up on a screen and says BLYNK AND AAZOO, I HAVE
A QUESTION FOR YOU.
Ebru is around 10, with long slightly wavy brown hair with two fairy barrettes and wears a sleeveless denim shirt.
She says I'M EBRU, AND I WANNA
KNOW HOW I COULD
BREATHE UNDER WATER LIKE A FISH.
M.A.V.I.S. says THIS COULD BE A VERY INTERESTING
QUESTION TO DIVE INTO.
GET IT?
DIVE?
WATER?
HA, HA.
CALLING INTERSTELLAR
SCIENCE COUNCIL.
A real life girl scientist named Eugenia pops up on another screen and says OH, HELLO, EVERYBODY.
Eugenia is in her thirties, with long braided brown hair and wears a yellow T-shirt.
Ebru says HI, MY NAME IS EBRU.
AND I GOT A NEW PET FISH,
AND IT MADE ME
WONDER HOW I COULD
BREATHE UNDER
WATER LIKE IT DOES.
Eugenia says HI EBRU.
I'M EUGENIA.
THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION, AND
I WOULD LOVE TO HELP YOU.
WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO START?
Ebru says WELL, I DON'T ACTUALLY
KNOW HOW FISH DO BREATHE.
Eugenia says BLYNK, FISH FILES, PLEASE.
SUBCATEGORY, GILLS.
M.A.V.I.S. says FISH ARE SOME OF EARTH'S
MOST INTERESTING LIFE FORMS.
BOTH FISH AND HUMANS
BREATHE OXYGEN.
FISH GET THEIR OXYGEN FROM
THE WATER USING GILLS.
WHEN FISH OPEN THEIR
MOUTHS, THEY TAKE IN WATER.
THE WATER IS FORCED
OVER THE GILLS,
WHERE THE OXYGEN IS REMOVED
AND ABSORBED INTO
THEIR BLOODSTREAM.
Ebru says WHOA, THERE'S OXYGEN IN WATER?
I DIDN'T KNOW THAT.
SO DO ALL UNDERWATER
ANIMALS HAVE GILLS?
Eugenia says NO, BUT I BET THEY
WISH THEY DID.
MAMMALS LIKE WHALES,
SEALS, AND EVEN DOLPHINS
HAVE TO GO TO THE SURFACE TO
GET THEIR OXYGEN FROM THE AIR.
Ebru says JUST LIKE ME.
Eugenia says EXACTLY.
BUT THEY'RE LUCKY.
THEY CAN STAY UNDER WATER
A LOT LONGER THAN YOU CAN.
Ebru says REALLY? LIKE HOW LONG?
M.A.V.I.S. says DOLPHINS CAN
STAY UNDER WATER
FOR APPROXIMATELY 20 MINUTES.
SPERM WHALES ABOUT 90.
Ebru says WHAT'S THE LONGEST WE
CAN STAY UNDER WATER FOR?
Eugenia says FOR HUMANS, THE
AVERAGE IS ABOUT A MINUTE.
Ebru says HMM, THAT'S NOT LONG.
SO A FISH USES GILLS TO
GET OXYGEN OUT OF WATER.
BUT MAMMALS, LIKE ME,
NEED TO GO TO THE SURFACE.
Eugenia says YOU'VE GOT IT, EBRU.
Blynk says VOILA.
Aazoo appears wearing a fish costume and pretending to swim.
Ebru says GREAT FISH COSTUME, AAZOO.
M.A.V.I.S. says NICE GILLS.
Ebru says SO IF I DON'T HAVE GILLS,
AND I DON'T WANNA COME UP
TO THE SURFACE FOR OXYGEN,
CAN I BRING OXYGEN DOWN WITH ME?
Eugenia says YUP, YOU SURE CAN.
(BLYNK BLOWS DISC)
Blunk plays a file clip.
M.A.V.I.S. says THIS SPIDER
USES THE TINY HAIRS
ON ITS LEGS AND STOMACH
TO BRING AIR DOWN
FROM THE SURFACE AND
CREATE A BUBBLE HOME.
Ebru says THAT'S SO COOL.
WHAT'S IT CALLED?
Eugenia says THAT'S A DIVING BELL
SPIDER.
GREAT FIND, BLYNK.
CREATURES ARE OFTEN THE
INSPIRATION FOR HUMAN INVENTION.
NOW, CAN YOU FIND SOME
HUMAN DIVING BELLS?
ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS
HUMANS TRIED TO DO
WAS CREATE A KIND
OF UPSIDE DOWN BELL
THAT WOULD TRAP A POCKET OF
AIR, JUST LIKE THE SPIDER.
Ebru says WHOA!
Eugenia says IT WASN'T A BAD IDEA.
BUT SINCE YOU HAD TO STAY
INSIDE THE BELL THE WHOLE TIME,
YOU REALLY COULDN'T
EXPLORE MUCH.
Ebru says I'D REALLY LIKE TO
EXPLORE UNDER WATER.
Aazoo appears wearing a diving suit helmet.
Ebru says WHAT IS AAZOO WEARING NOW?
Eugenia says THAT'S A HELMET
FROM AN OLD DIVING SUIT.
Ebru says DID PEOPLE REALLY USE THOSE?
Eugenia says THEY SURE DID.
Ebru says THEY LOOK
WEIRD AND SO HEAVY.
M.A.V.I.S. says AFFIRMATIVE.
EARLY SUITS NOT
ONLY WEIGHED A LOT,
BUT HUMANS NEEDED TO BE
CONNECTED TO THE SURFACE BY A
TUBE THAT WOULD PUMP
AIR DOWN TO THEM.
Eugenia says AND, AS AAZOO IS ABOUT
TO FIND OUT,
THOSE TUBES GET
STUCK ON EVERYTHING.
Aazoo get stuck on the control system and he pulls and pulls. The tube breaks and Aazoo flies off.
(AAZOO YELPING)
(METAL CRASHING)
M.A.V.I.S. says DIVING HELMET NOT
APPROVED FOR FLYING.
Ebru says HEY, WHAT ABOUT
SCUBA DIVERS THEN?
THEY DON'T HAVE TUBES, RIGHT?
M.A.V.I.S. says AFFIRMATIVE.
SELF-CONTAINED UNDERWATER
BREATHING APPARATUS, SCUBA.
THESE TANKS LET DIVERS STAY
UNDER WATER FOR ABOUT ONE HOUR.
Ebru says THAT'S BETTER.
HEY, WHAT ABOUT GETTING OXYGEN
STRAIGHT FROM THE WATER?
Eugenia says AH, YOU MEAN LIKE
FISH DO.
Ebru says YEAH, INSTEAD OF
HAVING TO BRING IT
DOWN IN ALL THAT STUFF.
Eugenia says BLYNK, GOT ANY IDEAS?
(BLYNK MUMBLES)
Ebru says WHAT IS THAT?
Eugenia says BLYNK'S SHOWING US A SUBMARINE
THAT USES A KIND
OF ELECTRIC GILL
TO TAKE OXYGEN FROM WATER.
THE OXYGEN IS THEN
USED TO HELP THE PEOPLE
INSIDE THE SUBMARINE BREATHE.
Ebru says AN ELECTRIC GILL.
THAT'S SO COOL.
WHERE CAN I CAN
GET ONE OF THOSE?
Eugenia says I'M AFRAID YOU HAVE
TO BUY A SUBMARINE.
BLYNK, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING
IN THE FUTURE FILES?
Blynk says MM HM.
Eugenia says AH YES, THE
CRYSTAL CREATED IN DENMARK.
SOMEDAY IT COULD LEAD TO SOME
VERY EXCITING POSSIBILITIES.
THIS CRYSTAL TAKES
LARGE AMOUNTS OF OXYGEN
FROM AIR OR WATER AND STORES IT.
M.A.V.I.S. says AFFIRMATIVE.
AND WHEN YOU HEAT IT UP,
IT RELEASES THE OXYGEN.
Eugenia says SOMEDAY AN
INVENTION LIKE THIS
COULD MAKE BREATHING IN ALL
KINDS OF ENVIRONMENTS POSSIBLE.
Ebru says LIKE UNDER WATER?
THAT'S AWESOME.
I'D LOVE THAT.
Eugenia says IT'S DEFINITELY AN INVENTION
TO KEEP OUR EYES ON.
Ebru says WHAT IF, INSTEAD OF A
CRYSTAL, YOU MADE BUBBLE GUM?
WHEN YOU CHEWED IT,
YOU GOT OXYGEN BUBBLES.
M.A.V.I.S. says INSPIRATION DETECTED.
INVENTION STATION
IS READY, CAPTAIN.
Eugenia says I GET THE FEELING BLYNK'S
INVENTING SOMETHING.
(UPBEAT ELECTRONIC MUSIC)
Blynk makes a bubble gum ball in the invention station and says OOOH.
Ebru says WHAT?
NO WAY!
IS THAT BUBBLE GUM
THAT MAKES OXYGEN?
Blynk says MM HM, MM HM.
(PLAYFUL MUSIC)
Now he brings a water tank and Azzoo sits on top wearing goggles and fins.
He starts chewing the gum.
Ebru says READY.
SET.
M.A.V.I.S. says I SENSE BUBBLE TROUBLE.
Ebru says GO!
Aazoo jumps in the water.
Ebru says UH OH, I THINK
AAZOO SWALLOWED IT.
Aazoo balloons up to the size of the tank.
Eugenia says YOUR INVENTION MIGHT NEED A
LITTLE BIT MORE WORK, BLYNK.
Ebru says MAYBE WHEN I'M OLDER,
I CAN INVENT SOMETHING
THAT CAN SUCK THE OXYGEN
RIGHT OUT OF THE WATER.
Ebru says NOW, THAT WOULD BE SCIENTASTIC.
THANKS FOR HELPING ME, EVERYONE.
BYE.
Eugenia says BYE, EBRU.
BYE, BLYNK.
AND DON'T WORRY.
AAZOO SHOULD UNBUBBLE
IN ABOUT AN HOUR OR SO.
M.A.V.I.S. says THE SEARCH FOR
INVENTIONS CONTINUES.
ALL SYSTEMS ENGAGED.
The song says BLYNK AND AAZOO
I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU.
