Messy swings on a tire swing.
[Swing creaks]
Messy cheers, WHEE!
[Giggles, swing creaks, birds sing]
(LAUGHING)
Messy says, HIYA.
MY NEW SWING'S BRILLIANT. WHEE!
[Giggles]
Messy asks, WHAT?
The rope on one side of the swing snaps and Messy falls onto the ground.
[Slide whistle, rustling]
Messy says, OW!
WHAT HAPPENED?
WHY DID MY SWING BREAK?
HMM. WHEN YOU NEED TO KNOW,
GO TO OKIDO.
Messy leaps into a green and white striped tunnel.
[Whoosh, dramatic music plays]
Messy falls towards a town. He bounces on large buttons and a trampoline.
[Boings, birds chirp]
Messy says, HELLO, FELIX.
HELLO? FELIX? ZOE?
WHERE ARE YOU?
[Giggling]
Felix and Zoe say, HI, MESSY.
Messy says, AAH!
WHOA-HO-HO.
NICE HIDING PLACES, YOU TWO.
HEY, WHERE DID THESE METAL TREES
COME FROM?
Messy hits a metal tree.
[Clang]
Felix says, THEY'RE NOT METAL
TREES, MESSY.
Zoe says, THEY'RE LEGS.
Messy says, OH, THEY'RE NOT LEGS.
THEY'RE TOO BIG.
A metal leg moves.
[Thump, dramatic notes play]
Messy says, BA-LA-BA-LA BOOM-BOOM!
SORRY. DIDN'T SEE YOU UP THERE.
A tall robot looks down at Messy.
[Electric mumbling]
Zoe says, MEET STAN TALL, OKIDO'S
BIGGEST, STRONGEST ROBOT.
[Whirring]
Felix says, HE'S GOING TO BE
HELPING ZIM BUILD A BRIDGE TODAY.
ISN'T THAT RIGHT, STAN?
[Electronic mumbling]
Zoe says, WE NEED TO GET HIM
DOWN TO THE SEA.
HE'S GOT A BUSY DAY OF BRIDGE
BUILDING AHEAD OF HIM.
Messy says, HE'LL NEVER FIT IN OKIDOODLE.
THINK YOU CAN KEEP UP, STAN?
[Electronic mumbling, birds chirp]
Zoe says, WELL, WE'D BETTER HURRY UP.
WE ONLY HAVE ONE DAY TO BUILD A
WHOLE BRIDGE.
[Messy whistles, upbeat music plays, Stan’s footsteps bang]
Okidoodle stops and Messy jumps into the driver’s seat. Zoe and Felix sit in seats behind Messy and fasten their seatbelts.
[Clicking, upbeat music continues]
Messy says, RACE YOU, STAN. OKAY.
LET'S SKIDOODLE, OKIDOODLE.
[Laughing, banging footsteps]
Messy stops Okidoodle at a construction site.
[Tires screech]
Messy says, WE WON! WE WON.
Zim says, GOOD TO SEE YOU, STAN.
WE'RE GOING TO NEED ALL THE
HELP WE CAN GET.
Messy says, OH, DON'T FORGET ME.
I CAN HELP, TOO.
Messy picks up a plank of wood and knocks over a stack of red metal cylinders.
[Clank, clattering, upbeat music plays, Zam sighs]
Zam says, IF WE'RE GOING TO FINISH THE
BRIDGE TO THE ISLAND TODAY,
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO WORK FAST.
Zoe says, IT'S A LONG WAY.
ARE YOU SURE A BRIDGE WILL REACH
THAT FAR?
[Gulls call]
Zim says, YES. ZOOM?
Zoom turns into a screen and shows a car driving over bridges.
[Upbeat music plays, slide whistle, engine hums, whirring]
Zim explains, BRIDGES ARE THE
PERFECT SOLUTION FOR CROSSING
RIVERS, GAPS, OR EVEN OVER THE
SEA TO ISLANDS.
Felix asks, HOW DO PEOPLE GET
TO THE ISLAND AT THE MOMENT?
[Gulls call, water splashes]
Zam says, BY BOAT, BUT BILLY BARNACLE,
THE BOAT CAPTAIN, IS A BIT ON
THE SLOW SIDE.
Billy Barnacle naps on a chair.
[Nautical music plays, snoring, horn blares, Billy mutters sleepily]
[Zoe, Felix and Messy laugh]
Zoe says, I SEE WHAT YOU MEAN.
[Whirring]
Zam says, THE MAYOR THOUGHT A BRIDGE
MIGHT BE FASTER, AND ASKED ME
TO DESIGN ONE.
STAN, COULD YOU FETCH THE DECK
OF THE BRIDGE FROM THE
WORKSHOP, PLEASE?
[Electronic mumbling, gulls call, Zim clears his throat]
Zim asks, ISN'T IT TIME TO LET THE
ROBOT BUILDERS KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT THEY'VE GOT TO DO, ZAM?
[Rattling]
Zam says, YES.
YES, I WAS JUST ABOUT TO, ZIM.
GATHER ROUND, GATHER ROUND.
NOW, THIS IS THE DESIGN FOR THE
BRIDGE WE'LL BE BUILDING TODAY.
Zoom shows the design on his screen.
[Whirring, upbeat music plays]
Zoe says, THAT LOOKS COMPLICATED.
Messy says, YEAH.
TOO COMPLICATED IF YOU ASK ME.
WHY NOT JUST STICK A REALLY LONG
PLANK ACROSS, LIKE THIS?
Messy puts a plank on two barriers and jumps on top of it. The plank breaks in half and Messy falls on his bottom.
[Rustling, clatter, cracking]
Messy says, OW!
[Felix and Zoe laugh]
Messy says, OH.
[Whirring]
Zim says, A BEAM BRIDGE, LIKE YOUR
PLANK, ONLY WORKS FOR SHORT
DISTANCES, MESSY.
IF IT'S TOO LONG, IT'LL SNAP IN
THE MIDDLE WHEN SOMETHING HEAVY
TRIES TO CROSS.
Zam says, WHICH IS WHY WE'RE
MAKING A SUSPENSION BRIDGE.
Zoom shows a drawing of a suspension bridge on his screen.
[Whirring, whooshing]
Zam says, THESE CABLES HELP TO TAKE
SOME OF THE WEIGHT FROM THE MIDDLE,
SO THAT OUR BRIDGE WON'T BREAK.
Mayor Oki arrives and bows. Zoom moves to the side.
[Beeping, birds chirp]
Mayor Oki says, HELLO, EVERYONE.
WILL MY NEW BRIDGE BE READY FOR
THE GRAND OPENING CEREMONY
TOMORROW?
Zam says, IT WILL. WE SIMPLY NEED
TO STICK TO THE PLAN.
[Electronic mumbling]
Zam says, AH, JUST IN TIME, STAN.
CAN YOU PLEASE POP THAT OVER
THERE? WE'LL NEED IT LATER.
[Thumping footsteps]
Zim asks, EVERYBODY READY?
Everyone replies, READY.
Zam says, THEN LET'S GO.
Stan lifts a red cylinder while Messy hangs off the side.
[Upbeat music plays]
Messy says, WHEE!
[Giggles]
Messy says, WOO!
HA-HA-HA.
Messy lets go of the cylinder and Stan catches him with his other hand.
[Slide whistle]
Stan carries supports for the bridge, the red cylinders, to a small island and puts them into holes. Stan extends the bridge deck surface to the shoreline. Robot builders fly and attach cables to the supports and each end of the bridge.
[Splashing, banging, upbeat music continues, cheering, laughter]
Mayor Oki says, OH-HO-HO-HO!
OH, SPLENDID. SIMPLY SPLENDID.
[Horn blares]
Zam says, OH, THANK YOU, MAYOR.
I'M PLEASED TO SAY IT ALL WENT
ACCORDING TO PLAN.
Zoe says, I WANT TO BE THE FIRST
TO CROSS.
Felix says, WAIT.
ARE YOU SURE IT'S SAFE?
Mayor Oki says, YES, GOOD POINT.
IS THIS BRIDGE SAFE?
[Zam chuckles]
Zam says, OF COURSE.
I DESIGNED IT VERY CAREFULLY.
[Birds chirp]
Mayor Oki says, I'M SURE YOU DID,
BUT WE DON'T WANT ANY ACCIDENTS.
CAN IT TAKE A REALLY HEAVY LOAD,
FOR EXAMPLE?
Zoe asks, HOW ABOUT IF STAN TALL
WALKED ACROSS?
HE'S A VERY HEAVY LOAD.
[Gentle music plays]
Mayor Oki says, HMM. MAYBE.
I'M STILL NOT SURE IT'S A
BIG-ENOUGH TEST.
Messy suggests, OH, HE COULD TREAD
REALLY HEAVILY, OR HOP ACROSS,
OR SKIP.
[Messy stomps, slide whistle, boings]
Zam asks, BUT WHERE ARE WE GOING
TO FIND A SKIPPING ROPE LONG ENOUGH?
Stan holds an extra bridge cable.
[Electronic mumbling]
Messy says, STAN'S FOUND A SKIPPING
ROPE ALREADY.
Felix shouts, NICE WORK, STAN.
[Electronic mumbling, beeping]
Zam says, LET'S SHOW THE MAYOR
HOW STRONG THIS BRIDGE IS.
[Whoosh, upbeat music plays]
Stan skips and the ground shakes.
[Loud thumping]
Felix says, WHOA.
ARE YOU SURE IT CAN TAKE THIS?
Zim says, I THINK SO.
Zoe cheers, GO, STAN!
A piece of the bridge deck beneath Stan moves.
[Creaking, tense music plays]
Mayor Oki asks, IS THAT MEANT
TO HAPPEN?
Zam says, NO!
[Loud thump]
Messy shouts, LOOK OUT, STAN!
The bridge breaks and Stan falls into the water.
[Electronic mumbling, splashing, squeaking]
Messy asks, STAN, ARE YOU OKAY?
[Electronic mumbling, splashing]
Zam says, OH, DEAR.
[Dramatic music plays]
Mayor Okie says, OH, DEAR, OH DEAR,
OH DEAR. I WAS WORRIED THAT
BRIDGE WASN'T STRONG ENOUGH.
Zam says, UH, THERE'S BEEN SOME
SORT OF MISTAKE.
Mayor Oki asks, WELL, CAN YOU PUT
IT RIGHT?
OTHERWISE, I'LL HAVE NO CHOICE
BUT TO HAVE THIS BRIDGE DISMANTLED.
[Dramatic music plays, Zoe gasps]
Zoe says, NOT AFTER EVERYONE'S
HARD WORK. WE CAN SORT IT OUT,
CAN'T WE?
Messy runs to Zoe.
[Whoosh]
Messy says, YES, OF COURSE.
SURE WE CAN.
Felix says, OF COURSE WE CAN.
[Water drips, birds chirp]
Mayor Oki says, RIGHT. I'M JUST
NIPPING HOME TO DRY OFF
MY MAYORAL CHAIN.
IF YOU CAN GET IT SORTED BY
THEN, THAT WOULD BE SPLENDID.
[Beeping]
Zam says, I DON'T UNDERSTAND!
THE PLANS WERE PERFECT.
I CHECKED THEM TWICE, AND THEN
AGAIN, AND THEN TWENTY-FIVE
MORE TIMES.
[Beeping]
Felix says, WELL, THAT CERTAINLY
SOUNDS LIKE ENOUGH CHECKING.
[Beeping]
Zam says, IT LOOKS THE SAME AS
ON THE PLAN.
[Disjointed music plays]
Zim says, EXCEPT FOR THE DUST AND
THE BANGS AND THE BITS THAT HAVE
BROKEN OFF.
Zam says, YES, THANK YOU.
[Birds chirp]
Felix says, WAIT A MINUTE.
ACCORDING TO THE PLAN, THERE
ARE MEANT TO BE FOUR CABLES.
Zm says, ONE AT EACH CORNER, YES.
IT'S IMPORTANT THAT THE WEIGHT
IS CARRIED EVENLY.
[Beeping]
Felix says, BUT THERE ARE ONLY THREE.
[Zim gasps, dramatic music plays]
Zim says, HOLD ON.
I'M SURE THERE WERE FOUR.
[Beeping]
Felix says, SOMEONE MUST HAVE
TAKEN ONE, AND I THINK I KNOW WHO.
[Footsteps patter]
Felix asks, STAN, WHERE DID YOU
PUT YOUR SKIPPING ROPE?
[Electronic mumbling]
Zoe asks, STAN, WHERE DID YOU FIND
A GIANT SKIPPING ROPE SO QUICKLY?
[Electronic mumbling]
Felix says, HA-HA! I KNEW IT.
Zim says, AH. YOU MEAN STAN'S
SKIPPING ROPE...
Zam finishes, ...IS THE MISSING
SUSPENSION CABLE.
[Beeping]
[Cheerful music notes play]
Messy says, WELL DONE, FELIX.
[Felix chuckles, whirring]
Zim says, STAN, DIDN'T YOU KNOW
THAT WAS AN IMPORTANT PART OF
THE BRIDGE?
Stan shrugs.
[Electronic mumbling, creaking]
Zoe says, I DON'T THINK HE DID.
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
Messy says, OH, DEFINITELY.
WHEN YOU'VE HAD AS MANY
ACCIDENTS AS I HAVE, YOU GET
TO KNOW ONE WHEN YOU SEE IT.
[Electronic mumbling, whirring, footsteps thump]
Zim says, BUT THREE CABLES SIMPLY
CAN'T CARRY AS MUCH WEIGHT
AS FOUR.
[Beeping, birds chirp]
Messy says, OH. SO, MORE CABLES
CAN CARRY MORE WEIGHT. GOT IT.
Felix says, WELL, NOW THAT'S SORTED
OUT, WE NEED TO GET THE BRIDGE FIXED
BEFORE THE MAYOR GETS BACK.
Zoe points and says, BETTER MOVE FAST.
HERE HE COMES!
The mayor walks on a road towards the broken bridge.
[Mayor sings indistinctly]
Messy exclaims, BA-LA-BA-LA BOOM-BOOM!
THAT'S WHY YOU NEED ROBOT BUILDERS.
The robot builders and Stan rebuild the bridge using all four cables.
[Whirring, creaking, beeping, upbeat music plays]
Mayor Oki says, SPLENDID WORK.
IT LOOKS AS GOOD AS NEW.
[Dramatic music plays]
The mayor asks, BUT IS IT SAFE?
Zim says, ABSOLUTELY. BY LOOKING
AT THE PLANS, WE FOUND THE MISTAKE
AND CORRECTED IT.
[Beeping]
Messy says, AND I CAN PROVE IT.
HEY, STAN?
Stan says, in an electronic voice, YES.
Stan walks to the centre of the bridge and swings on a beam attached to the two supports.
[Thumping footsteps, upbeat music plays]
Felix cheers, YEAH.
Stand jumps back to the shore.
[Thump, boing]
Messy cheers, WOO!
NICE SWINGING.
[Mayor laughs, birds sing, upbeat music plays]
Mayor Oki says, WELL, I THINK
THAT PROVES IT. WELL DONE, ZAM.
YOUR BRIDGE WORKS PERFECTLY.
Zim says, STRONG ENOUGH FOR
GIANT STAN TO SWING ON.
Messy says, THAT REMINDS ME: I'VE
GOT SOME SWING-FIXING TO DO BACK
HOME. SEE YOU SOON.
Felix shouts, SEE YOU.
Zoe says, BYE.
[Whirring]
Soon, Messy swings on his tire swing. Two ropes hold up each side of the tire.
[Birds sing]
Messy says, MORE ROPES MEANS
MY SWING CAN TAKE MY WEIGHT
WITHOUT BREAKING.
[Creaking, birds sing]
Messy cheers, WOO-HOO-HOO!
WHEE-HEE-HEE!
BYE-BYE.

Messy shouts, BA-LA-BA-LA BOOM-BOOM!
