They gather outside a school next to other kid superheroes and their teacher, Mr. Sparks. He has brown hair and a black beard. He wears a blue shirt with a red tie and blue jeans. Fur Blur, a hamster, runs towards them. He is the students' class pet.
The title of the show reads "Hero Elementary."
(Upbeat music plays)
Mister Sparks says IT WAS EARLY MORNING
AT HERO ELEMENTARY.
AJ WAS ALREADY UP,
BUT SOMETHING SHADY WAS ABOUT
TO GO DOWN.
Flying, AJ says AHA!
He stops under a tree and says THIS IS THE PERFECT SPOT
FOR OUR LUNCH LATER TODAY.
NICE AND SHADY, SO WE WON'T BE
IN THE SUN WHILE WE EAT.
He lays a tablecloth on the grass.
(jets whoosh)
(suspenseful music plays)
Benny and Sara fly in a flight chamber.
Benny laughs and says I'M FLYING!
Sara says WHOO-HOO!
Mister Sparks says THEY SAY TIME FLIES
WHEN YOU'RE HAVING FUN,
UNLESS YOU'VE BEEN WAITING
ALL MORNING
TO GO OUTSIDE FOR LUNCH.
AJ says THREE, TWO, ONE.
(bell rings)
LUNCHTIME!
MR. SPARKS, YOU SAID WE COULD
EAT LUNCH OUTSIDE TODAY
AND IT'S EXACTLY 12:00,
SO?
Mister Sparks says YES, OF COURSE, AJ.
OKAY, EVERYONE!
BRING IT IN!
GREAT TRAINING TODAY.
NOW IT'S TIME
FOR LUNCH OUTSIDE!
Benny says OH, LUNCH?
I'M HUNGRY!
Lucita says WHOO-HOO!
(giggles)
Sara says AW, CAN'T WAIT!
AJ says QUICK, FOLLOW ME!
Mister Sparks says HAVE FUN!
LET'S GET BACK
TO THE CLASSROOM, FUR BLUR.
FUR BLUR?
FUR BLUR?
WHAT--WHERE DID SHE GO?
Inside the flight chamber, Fur Blur squeaks excitedly.
(whooshes)
AJ says I CAN'T WAIT TILL YOU SEE
THE SHADY SPOT I PICKED OUT
RIGHT UNDER THE BIG TREE!
TA-DA!
HUH?
WHERE'S ALL THE SHADE?
Lucita says HMM, ARE YOU SURE
WE'RE AT THE RIGHT SPOT, AJ?
AJ says AH--UH--YES!
I PUT THE BLANKET RIGHT HERE
IN FRONT OF THESE BUSHES.
THE SHADE WAS COVERING
THE WHOLE BLANKET THIS MORNING,
BUT NOW THE SHADE'S
ALMOST GONE!
(breathing deeply)
Lucita says IT'S OKAY, AJ,
WE'LL FIGURE THIS OUT!
Benny says YEAH, SOLVING PROBLEMS
IS KINDA OUR THING, RIGHT?
AJ says RIGHT.
(cracking knuckles)
Sara says AFTER ALL,
WHO'S THE CREW
WHO KNOWS WHAT TO DO?
They all say SPARKS' CREW
TO THE RESCUE!
Benny says SO WHAT COULD'VE HAPPENED
TO THE SHADE?
AJ says THOUGHT PROJECTING!
MAYBE,
AFTER I LEFT THE BLANKET,
A SNEAKY PERSON CAME
AND TOOK THE SHADE!
Sara says UH, CAN THAT REALLY HAPPEN?
I DON'T THINK YOU CAN JUST
PICK SHADE UP AND TAKE IT AWAY.
She scratches the grass and says SEE?
AJ says YEAH, I GUESS NOT.
BUT HOW ARE WE GOING TO FIGURE
OUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SHADE?
Lucita says THE SAME WAY WE ALWAYS
FIGURE THINGS OUT!
WE CAN USE OUR...
The Crew puts their hands together and says SUPERPOWERS OF SCIENCE!
Lucita says LET'S START
BY ASKING QUESTIONS,
LIKE...
WHAT DO WE NOTICE
ABOUT THIS SHADE?
Benny says WELL, IT'S DARK.
AJ says AND THE TREE MAKES THE SHADE!
Sara says KINDA LIKE THE WAY
I MAKE A SHADOW!
Lucita says SO I GUESS THE SHADE
IS REALLY THE TREE'S SHADOW!
Benny says HEY, YEAH!
SHADE IS A SHADOW!
Sara says SO INVESTIGATING SHADOWS
MIGHT HELP US FIGURE OUT
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SHADE.
Lucita says GOOD IDEA!
WE SHOULD SPREAD OUT
AND SEE WHAT WE CAN OBSERVE
ABOUT SHADOWS.
LET'S GO, TEAM!
Using binoculars, AJ says HMM.
Sara moves her leg and says OH!
INTERESTING!
Benny says HMM.
AH!
Benny moves his hand under the shadow of a playground.
AJ says I NOTICE EVERYTHING SEEMS
TO HAVE A SHADOW,
AND EVERYONE!
Lucita says AND WHEN WE MOVE,
OUR SHADOWS MOVE TOO!
OOH!
PHEW!
Sara says WHAT IF WE MOVE REALLY FAST?
MAYBE MY SHADOW CAN'T KEEP UP!
She teleports and says HA!
OH.
HA!
HMM.
HA!
LOOKS LIKE OUR SHADOWS
STAY WITH US
NO MATTER HOW FAST WE MOVE!
Benny says AND IF SOMEONE
IS STANDING STILL,
THEIR SHADOW IS STANDING STILL
TOO.
AJ says BUT THE TREE DIDN'T MOVE.
IT STAYED RIGHT HERE.
SO WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SHADE?
Lucita says THAT'S THE BIG QUESTION.
WE HAVE TO KEEP INVESTIGATING!
Sara says I WISH THERE WAS A WAY
WE COULD SEE
WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE TREE'S SHADOW!
Benny says OH, GUESS WHAT?
I THINK THERE'S A WAY
WE
CAN
SEE
WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE TREE'S SHADOW!
LOOK WHAT I NOTICED
ON THE SCHOOL!
AJ says A SECURITY CAMERA!
AND IT'S POINTING
TOWARDS THE TREE!
Lucita says HMM.
I BET IT WAS RECORDING ALL DAY!
AJ says MAYBE IT CAN SHOW US
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SHADE.
Benny says LET'S GO INSIDE
AND ASK MR. SPARKS
IF HE CAN GET US THAT VIDEO.
Sara says OKAY, BUT WHILE
WE'RE IN THERE,
CAN WE EAT OUR LUNCH?
(stomach growls)
OOH!
UH, I'M GETTING KINDA HUNGRY.
AJ says BUT WE'RE SUPPOSED
TO EAT OUTSIDE TODAY.
AH, THIS ISN'T WHAT I PLANNED!
BUT I'M ALSO GOING
TO FIGURE THIS OUT!
LET'S GO INVESTIGATE!
Lucita says COME ON!
Mister Sparks says HERE'S WHAT THE SECURITY
CAMERA RECORDED TODAY.
AJ says THERE I AM THIS MORNING!
CAN YOU ZOOM IN, MR. SPARKS?
Mister Sparks says OF COURSE!
Lucita says WOW!
THERE WAS LOTS OF SHADE THERE
THIS MORNING!
AJ says JUST LIKE I TOLD YOU.
MR. SPARKS, CAN YOU
FAST-FORWARD TO LUNCHTIME?
Sara says WHOA!
THE TREE'S SHADOW IS MOVING!
ALL BY ITSELF!
AJ says BUT HOW?
Benny says YEAH!
THE TREE IS STANDING STILL.
SO HOW CAN ITS SHADOW MOVE?
Mister Sparks says A VERY GOOD QUESTION!
HOW DO YOU THINK
WE CAN FIND OUT?
AJ says WE KEEP INVESTIGATING!
Mister Sparks says MUY BIEN!
TELL ME, WHAT ELSE DO WE KNOW
ABOUT SHADOWS?
Lucita says WELL, I KNOW
I LIKE PLAYING WITH THEM
AND MAKING SHADOW PUPPETS!
Benny says OH!
WAIT, WHAT ARE SHADOW PUPPETS?
Lucita says I'LL SHOW YOU!
AJ, DO YOU HAVE A FLASHLIGHT?
AJ says NO, BUT I HAVE
MY SUPER LUX DELUXE!
Sara says ISN'T THAT BASICALLY A...
AJ says A FLASHLIGHT?
YES, BUT A SUPER BRIGHT ONE!
Lucita says OH, PERFECT!
WE JUST NEED TO MAKE IT
DARKER IN HERE.
Sara says ON IT!
Sara turns off the lights.
Lucita says AIM THE LIGHT AT THE WALL.
NOW...
TRY TO GUESS WHAT THIS IS!
Benny says OOH!
A BUNNY!
Lucita says YUP!
HOP HOP, HOP HOP!
(laughs)
Sara says THAT'S SO COOL, LUCITA!
Mister Sparks says SO HOW DID THE BUNNY
SHADOW PUPPET GET ON THE WALL?
AJ says WELL, LUCITA'S HANDS
ARE BLOCKING THE LIGHT
AND MAKING A SHADOW!
Benny says YEAH, A SUPER CUTE SHADOW!
Lucita says YOU CAN MAKE ALL SORTS OF
SHADOW PUPPETS WITH YOUR HANDS!
Sara says CAN WE TRY?
Lucita says SURE!
Sara says OKAY, SEE IF YOU CAN GUESS
WHAT THIS IS!
AJ says OH, A--A DRAGON?
Benny says NO, NO, A FOX?
Sara says AHEM!
WOOF, WOOF!
WOOF, WOOF, WOOF!
Benny says OH, A PUPPY!
Sara says YES!
(laughs)
Benny says MY TURN, MY TURN!
Sara says I GUESS IT'S HARD TO TELL
WHAT SOME SHADOW PUPPETS
ARE SUPPOSED TO BE.
OR NOT!
THAT LOOKS JUST LIKE FUR BLUR!
AJ says THAT'S BECAUSE
IT IS FUR BLUR!
Sara says HUH?
(all laughing)
Mister Sparks OH, FUR BLUR.
Benny says AWW!
SHE'S EVEN MAKING
HER OWN SHADOW PUPPETS!
SO CUTE!
Lucita says THIS IS SO MUCH FUN!
Lucita flies up and lowers the flashlight.
Sara says DID YOU SEE THAT?
FUR BLUR'S SHADOW MOVED
ONTO THE FLOOR!
Mister Sparks AHA!
AJ says BUT SHE'S STANDING STILL.
LUCITA, CAN YOU MOVE THE LIGHT
AGAIN?
Lucita says MM-HMM!
Sara says THERE IT GOES!
AJ says SO WHEN THE LIGHT MOVES,
THE SHADOW MOVES
EVEN IF FUR BLUR DOESN'T!
WE'VE GOT TO GET BACK OUTSIDE!
I'VE GOT AN IDEA
FOR A NEW INVESTIGATION!
Mister Sparks says I LOVE INVESTIGATIONS!
VAMONOS!
Now, under the tree, AJ says OKAY, WE KNOW SOMETHING
HAS TO BE BLOCKING LIGHT
TO MAKE A SHADOW, RIGHT?
Sara says RIGHT.
AJ says AND SINCE THE SHADE
IS THE TREE'S OWN SHADOW...
IT'S GOTTA BE THE TREE
THAT'S BLOCKING LIGHT!
Lucita says BUT THERE AREN'T
ANY FLASHLIGHTS OUT HERE.
WHERE'S THE LIGHT COMING FROM?
AJ says HMM.
AHA!
IT'S THE SUN!
THE SUN IS THE LIGHT!
THE SUN'S LIGHT SHINES
ON THE TREE,
AND THE TREE BLOCKS THE LIGHT,
AND THAT MAKES THE SHADOW
ON THE GROUND BELOW!
Mister Sparks says EXACTAMENTE!
Lucita says OKAY, BUT THAT STILL
DOESN'T EXPLAIN
HOW THE TREE'S SHADOW MOVED.
Benny says THE SHADE WAS THERE
THIS MORNING,
BUT IT'S IN A DIFFERENT
PLACE NOW.
Sara says IT'S NOT LIKE THE TREE
JUST PICKED UP AND MOVED.
AJ says HMM.
IT DIDN'T HAVE TO!
REMEMBER, WHEN THE LIGHT MOVES,
THE SHADOW MOVES.
LET'S LOOK AT THE VIDEO AGAIN!
CAN YOU ZOOM ALL THE WAY OUT
SO WE CAN SEE THE SUN TOO?
Mister Sparks says CERTAINLY!
HERE'S WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE
THIS MORNING.
AJ says OKAY, SO THE SUN
WAS OVER THERE.
UM, NOW CAN YOU FAST FORWARD?
Mister Sparks says SURE.
HERE'S WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE
AT LUNCHTIME.
They gasp and say OH!
AJ says THE SUN'S OVER THERE!
THE SUNLIGHT SHINES ON THE
TREE FROM A DIFFERENT PLACE.
THAT'S WHY THE SHADE MOVED!
Mister Sparks says FANTÁSTICO!
I LIKE HOW YOU ALL
FIGURED THAT OUT!
AJ says I KNEW WE WOULD.
WE'RE SPARKS' CREW!
SOLVING PROBLEMS IS
KINDA OUR THING!
Lucita says IT'S JUST TOO BAD WE COULDN'T
HAVE LUNCH IN THE SHADE TODAY.
AJ says THAT'S OKAY!
NOW THAT WE KNOW THERE'S LOTS
OF SHADE HERE IN THE MORNING,
WE CAN HAVE BREAKFAST OUTSIDE
TOMORROW INSTEAD!
Lucita says GREAT IDEA!
AJ says WHOO-HOO!
Sara says HOORAY!
Benny says OH, YEAH!
YIPPEE!
Mister Sparks says SO MY STUDENTS
HEADED INSIDE,
HAPPY THAT THEY SOLVED
THE MYSTERY OF THE SHADE
BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT.
