Transcript: The Autograph Collection
[Groovy music plays]
Carl, a young raccoon, sits among a collection of animal plushies in his bedroom.
Singers sing, YES! IT'S CARL! THE COLLECTOR!
Carl jumps out from the pile of animal plushies. He wears a black, white and grey sweater vest over a mustard-yellow short-sleeved polo shirt. At a table, Carl smells a green pickle sticker from his sticker collection.
The singers sing, IT'S CARL, IT'S CARL, ABSO-LUTE-LY!
Carl imagines himself flying over an ocean of pickle juice on two slices of pickle. On a park trail, he rides his teal bike wearing a matching teal helmet.
The singers sing, CARL! IT’S CARL! THE COLLECTOR!
Carl’s friends follow him down the trail, all wearing helmets. Sheldon, a beaver wearing a green plaid shirt and orange toque, rides a green bike with Forrest, a grey squirrel wearing a white T-shirt, on his back. Arugula and Nico, pink rabbits wearing matching mustard-yellow dresses, ride on either side of Sheldon. Arugula rides a bike, and Nico rides a skateboard.
The singers sing, IT'S CARL! IT'S CARL! THE COLLECTOR!
Carl and his friends ride up to Pyramid Pizza and join Lotta, a fox wearing teal coveralls. Everyone holds up jars of collected items, including toy trucks, nuts and bolts, watches and pom-poms.
The singers chant, CARL! CARL! CARL! CARL! CARL! THE COLLECTOR!
The title reads, “Carl the Collector. Created by Zachariah Ohora.” In his bedroom, Carl puts a jar with the episode title on a cube shelf. He reads the title.
Carl says, THE AUTOGRAPH COLLECTION.
At home, Carl says, HELLO, PAPERCLIP COLLECTION!
Carl looks at the rocks on a shelf.
Carl says, HELLO, ROCK COLLECTION!
Carl jumps and grabs a jar off a shelf above the rock collection.
Carl says, THERE YOU ARE, WATCH COLLECTION!
Carl opens the jar and puts on three watches from his watch collection: a digital watch, an analog watch, and a calculator watch.
[Watch ticking]
Carl looks in the jar and frowns.
Carl asks, WHERE'S MY NEW SPECIAL COLLECTOR'S CLUB WATCH?
Carl shakes the jar.
Carl says, AH, THERE YOU ARE!
Carl pulls out a digital watch with a raccoon icon. The time reads 1:48.
Carl says, OH! TIME TO GO!
Outside, Carl rides his bike through the neighbourhood.
[Bike bell ringing]
[Tires whirring]
Carl rides up to Arugula and Nico’s house and hops off his bike.
[Tires screeching]
[Carl sighing]
Carl walks up to the door and checks his watch collection. The time reads, 1:59.
Carl says, MADE IT, 1:59... RIGHT...ON...
[Watch alarms beeping and ringing]
Carl says, ...TIME.
Carl knocks on the door.
[Knocking]
Nico answers the door wearing her helmet.
Nico says, OH, HEY CARL!
Carl says, HELLO NICO! I CAME AT EXACTLY 2 O'CLOCK, LIKE WE PLANNED. ARUGULA AND I ARE GOING BIKE-RIDING.
Nico says, OH.
Nico turns to the inside of the house.
Nico yells, AHHHH-ROOO-GUH-LAAAAH! CARL'S HERE TO GO “BIKE-RIDING.”
Nico grabs her skateboard and jumps off the porch.
Carl asks, HOW COME YOU'RE SAYING BIKE-RIDING THAT WAY, NICO? LIKE THIS... "BIKE-RIDING?”
Nico says, BECAUSE BIKES ARE FOR BABIES. EVERYONE KNOWS THAT.
Nico rolls up and down the sidewalk on her skateboard. Arugula walks out of the house wearing her bike helmet.
Carl says, EVERYONE DOES NOT KNOW THAT! BIKES ARE NOT FOR BABIES! BIKES ARE THE BEST!
Nico does a kick flip and grabs her skateboard.
Nico says, BABIES.
Arugula walks over with her bike. Carl wiggles his fingers.
Arugula says, NICO, THERE ARE A THOUSAND REASONS WHY BIKES AREN'T FOR BABIES.
Carl says, ACTUALLY, ARUGULA, THERE ARE SIX HUNDRED AND FORTY-TWO. FIRST, BABIES' LEGS ARE TOO SHORT TO REACH THE PEDALS. SECOND, BABIES DO NOT KNOW WHAT BRAKES ARE. THIRD, BABIES MOST CERTAINLY CANNOT CRAWL UP ONTO THE SEAT. FOUR…
Nico interrupts and says, I DIDN'T MEAN BABIES FOR REAL. I MEAN THAT RIDING A BIKE IS LITTLE KID STUFF, BOR-ING!
Carl says, BIKES ARE NOT BORING!
Carl presses his paws against his helmet and closes his eyes.
Arugula says, HEY, CARL! NICE WATCH COLLECTION!
Carl opens his eyes and looks at his watch collection.
Carl says, THIS SPECIAL COLLECTORS CLUB WATCH IS THE NEWEST ONE OF MY COLLECTION! IT IS MY FAVORITE.
Carl shows Arugula his Collector Club watch.
Arugula says, LOVE IT! SO, READY FOR OUR BIKE RIDE?
Carl says, NO, ARUGULA. I STILL HAVE TO TELL YOUR SISTER. SIX HUNDRED AND THIRTY-NINE MORE REASONS WHY BIKES ARE NOT FOR BABIES, OR BORING.
Arugula says, WELL, DON'T WORRY ABOUT WHAT MY SISTER THINKS, CARL. NICO DOESN'T KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT RIDING BIKES.
Nico frowns.
Arugula says, C'MON, LET'S GO!
Carl says, BUT WE NEED TO SHOW HER THAT SHE IS WRONG.
Carl glares at Nico. He glances at his Collector Club watch, which reads 2:05.
Carl says, NICO!
Nico does a kickflip and grabs her skateboard.
Nico asks, YES, CARL?
Carl says, IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE NUMBER ONE REASON WHY BIKES ARE NOT BORING, COME TO THE CREEK AT EXACTLY 2:30 P.M.
Carl jumps on his bike.
Carl says, I WILL SHOW YOU.
Carl starts to pedal down the sidewalk.
Carl grumbles, HMPH.
Nico says, FINE! HMPH.
Nico drops her skateboard on the ground and jumps on it. Arugula glares at Nico and shakes her head.
Arugula says, NOT NICE, NICO!
Arugula jumps on her bike and follows Carl. Nico watches them leave, and frowns. Elsewhere in the neighbourhood, Carl scowls.
From close by, Arugula says, HEY CARL, WAIT UP!
Arugula catches up with Carl on her bike.
Arugula says, LISTEN, SOMETIMES MY SISTER MAKES FUN OF THINGS SHE JUST DOESN'T UNDERSTAND.
Carl says, THERE IS NOTHING FUN OR HUMOROUS ABOUT HER INCORRECT IDEAS ABOUT BIKES!
Arugula frowns. She follows Carl further down the street to Sheldon’s house. On the sidewalk, Sheldon kneels beside his bike.
Carl says, HI, SHELDON!
Arugula says, HEY SHELDON!
Sheldon says, CARL! ARUGULA! CHECK IT OUT!
Carl and Arugula jump off their bikes. Sheldon honks a horn on the handlebars of his bike.
[Funny horn honking]
[Sheldon giggling]
Arugula says, NICE HORN!
Sheldon says, THANKS! MY BIKE'S ALL READY TO RIDE!
Sheldon honks the horn.
[Funny horn honking]
[Sheldon giggling]
[Arugula giggling]
Carl glances at Arugula.
Carl says, THAT IS A SILLY BIKE HORN, SHELDON. BUT, I HAVE A SERIOUS QUESTION FOR YOU. NICO SAID THAT BIKES ARE FOR BABIES, AND BORING. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A BABY RIDE A BIKE, EVEN ONCE?!
Carl wiggles his fingers.
Sheldon says, NOPE. NEVER.
Carl says, BECAUSE IT'S IMPOSSIBLE, SHELDON!
Carl paces around Sheldon and Arugula.
Sheldon says, WHY WOULD NICO SAY THAT? I'M NOT EVEN SURE I'VE EVER SEEN NICO ON A BIKE BEFORE.
Arugula says, YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES PEOPLE SAY THINGS WITHOUT KNOWING IF THEY'RE TRUE. LIKE THAT TIME I SAID TOMATOES ARE GROSS, BUT THEN I FOUND OUT THAT'S WHAT KETCHUP IS MADE OUT OF. AND I LOVE KETCHUP!
Sheldon says, YUM, KETCHUP IS SO GOOD ON FRENCH FRIES. OH, YOU KNOW WHAT'S REALLY GOOD? BIRCH BARK WITH HOT SAUCE.
Carl stops and says, SHELDON! WHAT ARE YOU EVEN TALKING ABOUT? NO ONE ELSE LIKES TO EAT TWIGS. DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON SLIVERS AND...
[Carl shuddering]
Carl says, …BUGS.
Carl’s eyes widen, and he says, WAIT! WHAT AM I SAYING? WE HAVE TO BE AT THE CREEK AT 2:30 SHARP, SO I CAN PROVE ONCE AND FOR ALL, THAT BIKES ARE NEITHER BORING, OR FOR BABIES!
Sheldon says, OKAY, NOT SURE WHAT YOU HAVE IN MIND, BUDDY, BUT, NOW THAT YOU MENTION IT, AT THE CREEK, THERE'S LOTS OF BIRCH BARK.
Carl checks his watch collection.
Carl says, 2:15 ON THE DOT. LET'S TAKE WOODBINE AVENUE.
Sheldon and Arugula look at each other and nod. Carl, Sheldon and Arugula ride their bikes down the sidewalk. They stop at a corner and look both ways down the street before crossing the street into a park.
From close by, Forrest says, PHEW WHEE!
Forrest runs up to Carl, Sheldon and Arugula.
Forrest says, NOW THIS IS WHAT I CALL CARDIO!
Forrest jogs beside Sheldon.
Carl says, HELLO, FORREST.
Sheldon says, HEY, FORREST!
Arugula says, HELLO, FORREST!
Panting, Forrest starts to ask, WHERE'S... EVERYONE...
[Forrest panting]
Forrest continues, OFF TO...IN SUCH...A...HURRY?
Carl says, WE HAVE TO BE AT THE CREEK AT 2:30!
Carl glances at his Collector Club watch and adds, AND IT'S 2:26!
Forrest grunts, HA!
Forrest jumps on Sheldon’s bike and holds onto Sheldon.
Forrest says, I'M IN! LET'S GO TO THE CREEK.
At the edge of the neighbourhood creek, Carl stands beside a wooden crate and a cardboard box. Sheldon, Arugula and Forrest watch him from nearby.
Carl says, I'LL JUST PUT THIS CRATE HERE AND FLATTEN THIS BOX.
Carl jumps up and down on the cardboard box.
Carl says, STOMP, STOMP, STOMP.
Carl’s foot breaks through the box, and he frowns.
Carl says, HMM. CLEARLY THIS CARDBOARD ISN'T STRONG ENOUGH.
Carl pulls his foot out of the box and carries the box away. He returns with a wooden board.
Carl says, THIS WOODEN BOARD SHOULD DO THE TRICK.
Carl leans the board against the crate.
Sheldon walks over and says, CARL, BUDDY...SO, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Carl says, I AM MAKING A RAMP.
Forrest says, RAMPS ARE COOL!
Arugula says, UH, THAT RAMP LOOKS KINDA WOBBLY.
Carl says, IT WILL WORK.
Carl checks his watch collection.
Carl says, YES. IT'S ALMOST...
The time on Carl’s watches changes from 2:29 to 2:30.
[Watch alarms beeping and ringing]
Carl says, ...TIME. OKAY, IT IS 2:30 P.M.
Carl turns to Sheldon, Arugula and Forrest.
Carl asks, WHERE'S NICO?
[Skateboard wheels rolling]
Nico rolls down the sidewalk behind Carl, Sheldon, Arugula and Forrest.
Carl says, NICO! YOU'RE LATE!
Nico rolls over to Carl.
Carl says, IT'S 2:31! REASON NUMBER SEVENTY-FOUR THAT BIKES ARE NOT FOR BABIES: BIKES ARE FAST AND GET YOU PLACES ON TIME. BABIES NEVER GET ANYWHERE ON TIME BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO CRAWL EVERYWHERE. SIMPLE SCIENCE, NICO.
Nico says, OKAY, OKAY. IT'S 2:31. SO, HERE I AM. WHAT'S THE DEAL?
Carl says, NICO, YOU HAVE CLAIMED “BIKES ARE FOR BABIES AND BORING.” WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE AND IT IS SO FRUSTRATING YOU DON'T REALIZE THIS!
Carl walks over to his bike.
Carl says, SO NOW, I, CARL, AM GOING TO PROVE IT WITH A DEMONSTRATION OF REASON NUMBER ONE THAT BIKES ARE NOT FOR BABIES. I AM GOING TO RIDE MY BIKE UP THAT RAMP AND JUMP THE CREEK.
Carl points toward the crate at the edge of the creek.
Carl asks, WOULD A BABY DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT?
Carl puts on his helmet. Sheldon and Arugula look at each other. Arugula shrugs. Forrest looks thoughtful.
Carl says, NO!
Sheldon says, NO…
Arugula says, CARL!
Sheldon says, BUDDY.
Arugula says, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO PROVE!
Sheldon says, YOU COULD GET REALLY HURT!
Forrest cheers, AWESOME!
Arugula runs over to Nico and says, NICO, TELL HIM NOT TO DO THIS!
Nico rolls over to Carl on her skateboard.
Nico says, UH, CARL, DON'T DO THIS FOR ME.
Carl says, I AM NOT DOING THIS FOR YOU! I AM DOING THIS FOR BIKE RIDERS EVERYWHERE!
Carl pushes his bike toward the crate. Arugula, Nico and Sheldon speak over each other.
Nico says, CARL, BUDDY, PLEASE!
Arugula says, CARL, BUDDY, NO!
Sheldon says, CARL BUDDY, PLEASE DON'T -
Carl cuts off his friends and says, SILENCE!
Arugula, Nico and Sheldon look worried. Forrest gives two thumbs-up.
Carl says, NOW MY FAVORITE WATCH WILL ASSIST WITH THE COUNTDOWN.
Carl presses a button on his Collector Club watch.
[Drumroll]
Carl says, IN FIVE, FOUR, THREE, TWO, ONE.
[Watch beeping]
With a look of determination, Carl rides his bike over to the crate and up the ramp. He soars into the air.
[Gears turning]
[Exciting music plays]
Carl says, WOOOWWWWAHHHAHHHOOOHHHH!
Sheldon says, CARL!
[Bike bell ringing]
Carl soars over the creek to the other side and bounces onto the ground.
Arugula, Forrest and Sheldon cheer, HE DID IT! YAY CARL!
Carl’s bike tips forward, and he falls off.
[Bike clanging]
[Thudding]
Carl groans, OW.
[Carl moaning]
Arugula says, OH NO! ARE YOU OKAY, CARL?
Arugula rushes across the creek bridge with Forrest and Sheldon, and they all run over to Carl. Nico closely follows.
[Carl moaning]
Sheldon says, CARL!
[Carl groaning]
Sheldon pulls Carl onto his feet. Carl rubs the back of his head.
Sheldon asks, ARE YOU OKAY?
Carl says, OW.
Carl looks at his Collector Club watch.
Carl says, OH NO. MY NEW WATCH IS BROKEN!
The watch is cracked.
Arugula says, I THINK WE BETTER GET YOUR MOM, AND MAKE SURE YOUR WATCH ISN'T THE ONLY THING THAT'S BROKEN.
At Carl’s house, Carl sits on the front porch bench with his right wrist and paw in a cast. Arugula and Sheldon write on the cast. Forrest stands near Arugula. Nico stands by the front door with a frown. Carl’s Mama walks out with a tray of French fries and drinks.
Carl’s Mama says, ALRIGHT, WHO WANTS FRENCH FRIES?
Carl and his friends say, FRENCH FRIES!
Arugula says, I DO!
Carl’s Mama asks, AND HOW ABOUT KETCHUP?
Carl’s Mama sets the tray down on a table with a bottle of ketchup.
Sheldon says, THANK YOU!
Sheldon grabs one of the drinks. Forrest runs over with Arugula.
Forrest says, THANK YOU!
Arugula says, THANKS, MRS. CARL'S MOM.
Carl looks sad. His Mama brings him a drink.
Carl sadly says, THANKS, MAMA.
Carl sips the drink through a straw.
Carl’s Mama asks, HOW'S YOUR ARM FEELING, SWEETNESS?
Carl says, IT HURTS. A LOT.
Carl glances at his cast.
Carl’s Mama says, I KNOW, HONEY. YOU KNOW WHAT? BROKEN BONES DO HURT A LOT AT FIRST.
Carl says, AND I CAN'T DO ANYTHING THIS SUMMER WITH THE CAST ON. NO SWIMMING, NO BIKE RIDING…
Carl’s Mama says, AH, THAT'S TOUGH, BUT I'LL TELL YOU THIS. WHEN THE EIGHT WEEKS ARE OVER, YOUR ARM WILL BE ALL HEALED. IT'S GOING TO BE GOOD AS NEW. AND YOU KNOW, THE DOCTOR SAID YOU WERE PRETTY LUCKY, CARL. CARL'S MAMA: THAT FALL COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE.
Carl says, I KNOW. I SHOULD NOT HAVE LET WHAT NICO SAID BOTHER ME SO MUCH. I SHOULDN'T HAVE JUMPED THE CREEK.
Carl’s Mama says, THAT'S MY BOY.
Carl’s Mama kisses Carl on the head.
Carl’s Mama says, MWAH!
Carl’s Mama leaves, and Nico walks over.
Nico says, I STILL NEED TO SIGN YOUR CAST, CARL. IF THAT'S OKAY.
Carl says, IT IS, NICO.
Nico holds out his left arm, and Nico signs it.
Nico says, CARL, SO, UH, THE REAL REASON I SAID BIKES ARE FOR BABIES IS BECAUSE, WELL, UM, I ACTUALLY DON'T KNOW HOW TO RIDE A BIKE. I'M LEARNING, BUT I'M NOT VERY GOOD.
Carl says, YOU? YOU'RE NOT?
Nico says, NO, AND IT'S EMBARRASSING! YOU ALL ARE SO GOOD AT BIKE-RIDING, AND I CAN BARELY RIDE. THAT'S WHY I MADE FUN OF IT. I NEVER SHOULD HAVE SAID BIKES ARE FOR BABIES.
Carl says, SO YOU DO KNOW BIKES ARE NOT FOR BABIES AND NOT BORING! I DIDN'T HAVE TO PROVE IT!
Nico says, NO, YOU DIDN'T. SORRY.
Carl says, IT'S OKAY. HOW ABOUT AS SOON AS I GET MY CAST OFF AND CAN RIDE MY BIKE AGAIN, I’LL SHOW YOU EVERY MOVE I KNOW?
Nico says, YOU WILL? I WOULD LIKE THAT VERY MUCH!
Nico draws on Carl’s cast.
Nico says, TA-DA!
Carl looks at a drawing of a watch with a raccoon watch face.
Carl says, A DRAWING OF MY SPECIAL COLLECTOR'S CLUB WATCH? I LOVE IT! AND IT'S EXACTLY WHERE MY OLD ONE USED TO BE! THANK YOU, NICO!
Sheldon, Arugula and Forrest join Carl and Nico. They look at the Collector’s Club watch drawing.
Sheldon says, OH WOW!
Arugula says, WOW!
Forrest says, SWEET!
Sheldon says, LOOK AT THAT!
Arugula says, NICE DRAWING, SIS!
Sheldon says, WELL, CARL, YOU GOTTA WEAR THAT CAST FOR A WHILE, BUT ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, YOU DO HAVE A BRAND NEW COLLECTION. AN AUTOGRAPH COLLECTION!
Carl smiles. He looks up from the watch drawing and glances toward the street.
Carl says, HEY, WAIT A SECOND!
On the street, a baby rides in a seat on the back of a bike.
Carl says, WAS THAT...
The baby turns toward Carl and waves.
Carl says, …A BABY? ON A BIKE?
[Baby babbling]
Carl says, I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS. DID YOU ALL SEE THAT?
Sheldon, Arugula, Nico and Forrest stand around the tray of French fries with their backs to the street.
Carl says, WHAT?!
Carl waves back at the baby.
[Baby giggling]

Nico says, OH.
Nico turns to the inside of the house.
Nico yells, AHHHH-ROOO-GUH-LAAAAH! CARL'S HERE TO GO “BIKE-RIDING.”
Nico grabs her skateboard and jumps off the porch.
Carl asks, HOW COME YOU'RE SAYING BIKE-RIDING THAT WAY, NICO? LIKE THIS... "BIKE-RIDING?”
Nico says, BECAUSE BIKES ARE FOR BABIES. EVERYONE KNOWS THAT.
Nico rolls up and down the sidewalk on her skateboard. Arugula walks out of the house wearing her bike helmet.
Carl says, EVERYONE DOES NOT KNOW THAT! BIKES ARE NOT FOR BABIES! BIKES ARE THE BEST!
Nico does a kick flip and grabs her skateboard.
Nico says, BABIES.
Arugula walks over with her bike. Carl wiggles his fingers.
Arugula says, NICO, THERE ARE A THOUSAND REASONS WHY BIKES AREN'T FOR BABIES.
Carl says, ACTUALLY, ARUGULA, THERE ARE SIX HUNDRED AND FORTY-TWO. FIRST, BABIES' LEGS ARE TOO SHORT TO REACH THE PEDALS. SECOND, BABIES DO NOT KNOW WHAT BRAKES ARE. THIRD, BABIES MOST CERTAINLY CANNOT CRAWL UP ONTO THE SEAT. FOUR…

Carl shows Arugula his Collector Club watch.
Arugula says, LOVE IT! SO, READY FOR OUR BIKE RIDE?

Arugula says, WELL, DON'T WORRY ABOUT WHAT MY SISTER THINKS, CARL. NICO DOESN'T KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT RIDING BIKES.
Nico frowns.
Arugula says, C'MON, LET'S GO!
Carl says, BUT WE NEED TO SHOW HER THAT SHE IS WRONG.
Carl glares at Nico. He glances at his Collector Club watch, which reads 2:05.
Carl says, NICO!
Nico does a kickflip and grabs her skateboard.
Nico asks, YES, CARL?
Carl says, IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE NUMBER ONE REASON WHY BIKES ARE NOT BORING, COME TO THE CREEK AT EXACTLY 2:30 P.M.
Carl jumps on his bike.
Carl says, I WILL SHOW YOU.
Carl starts to pedal down the sidewalk.
Carl grumbles, HMPH.
Nico says, FINE! HMPH.
Nico drops her skateboard on the ground and jumps on it. Arugula glares at Nico and shakes her head.
Arugula says, NOT NICE, NICO!
Arugula jumps on her bike and follows Carl. Nico watches them leave, and frowns. Elsewhere in the neighbourhood, Carl scowls.
From close by, Arugula says, HEY CARL, WAIT UP!
Arugula catches up with Carl on her bike.

Carl says, HI, SHELDON!

Sheldon says, CARL! ARUGULA! CHECK IT OUT!
Carl and Arugula jump off their bikes. Sheldon honks a horn on the handlebars of his bike.
[Funny horn honking]
[Sheldon giggling]
Arugula says, NICE HORN!
Sheldon says, THANKS! MY BIKE'S ALL READY TO RIDE!
Sheldon honks the horn.
[Funny horn honking]
[Sheldon giggling]
[Arugula giggling]
Carl glances at Arugula.
Carl says, THAT IS A SILLY BIKE HORN, SHELDON. BUT, I HAVE A SERIOUS QUESTION FOR YOU. NICO SAID THAT BIKES ARE FOR BABIES, AND BORING. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A BABY RIDE A BIKE, EVEN ONCE?!
Carl wiggles his fingers.
Sheldon says, NOPE. NEVER.
Carl says, BECAUSE IT'S IMPOSSIBLE, SHELDON!
Carl paces around Sheldon and Arugula.

Carl checks his watch collection.
Carl says, 2:15 ON THE DOT. LET'S TAKE WOODBINE AVENUE.

Forrest runs up to Carl, Sheldon and Arugula.
Forrest says, NOW THIS IS WHAT I CALL CARDIO!

Panting, Forrest starts to ask, WHERE'S... EVERYONE...
[Forrest panting]
Forrest continues, OFF TO...IN SUCH...A...HURRY?
Carl says, WE HAVE TO BE AT THE CREEK AT 2:30!
Carl glances at his Collector Club watch and adds, AND IT'S 2:26!
Forrest grunts, HA!
Forrest jumps on Sheldon’s bike and holds onto Sheldon.
Forrest says, I'M IN! LET'S GO TO THE CREEK.
At the edge of the neighbourhood creek, Carl stands beside a wooden crate and a cardboard box. Sheldon, Arugula and Forrest watch him from nearby.

The time on Carl’s watches changes from 2:29 to 2:30.
[Watch alarms beeping and ringing]
Carl says, ...TIME. OKAY, IT IS 2:30 P.M.
Carl turns to Sheldon, Arugula and Forrest.
Carl asks, WHERE'S NICO?
[Skateboard wheels rolling]
Nico rolls down the sidewalk behind Carl, Sheldon, Arugula and Forrest.
Carl says, NICO! YOU'RE LATE!
Nico rolls over to Carl.
Carl says, IT'S 2:31! REASON NUMBER SEVENTY-FOUR THAT BIKES ARE NOT FOR BABIES: BIKES ARE FAST AND GET YOU PLACES ON TIME. BABIES NEVER GET ANYWHERE ON TIME BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO CRAWL EVERYWHERE. SIMPLE SCIENCE, NICO.

Carl walks over to his bike.
Carl says, SO NOW, I, CARL, AM GOING TO PROVE IT WITH A DEMONSTRATION OF REASON NUMBER ONE THAT BIKES ARE NOT FOR BABIES. I AM GOING TO RIDE MY BIKE UP THAT RAMP AND JUMP THE CREEK.
Carl points toward the crate at the edge of the creek.
Carl asks, WOULD A BABY DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT?
Carl puts on his helmet. Sheldon and Arugula look at each other. Arugula shrugs. Forrest looks thoughtful.
Carl says, NO!
Sheldon says, NO…
Arugula says, CARL!
Sheldon says, BUDDY.
Arugula says, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO PROVE!
Sheldon says, YOU COULD GET REALLY HURT!
Forrest cheers, AWESOME!
Arugula runs over to Nico and says, NICO, TELL HIM NOT TO DO THIS!
Nico rolls over to Carl on her skateboard.
Nico says, UH, CARL, DON'T DO THIS FOR ME.
Carl says, I AM NOT DOING THIS FOR YOU! I AM DOING THIS FOR BIKE RIDERS EVERYWHERE!
Carl pushes his bike toward the crate. Arugula, Nico and Sheldon speak over each other.
Nico says, CARL, BUDDY, PLEASE!
Arugula says, CARL, BUDDY, NO!
Sheldon says, CARL BUDDY, PLEASE DON'T -
Carl cuts off his friends and says, SILENCE!
Arugula, Nico and Sheldon look worried. Forrest gives two thumbs-up.
Carl says, NOW MY FAVORITE WATCH WILL ASSIST WITH THE COUNTDOWN.
Carl presses a button on his Collector Club watch.
[Drumroll]
Carl says, IN FIVE, FOUR, THREE, TWO, ONE.
[Watch beeping]
With a look of determination, Carl rides his bike over to the crate and up the ramp. He soars into the air.
[Gears turning]
[Exciting music plays]
Carl says, WOOOWWWWAHHHAHHHOOOHHHH!
Sheldon says, CARL!
[Bike bell ringing]
Carl soars over the creek to the other side and bounces onto the ground.
Arugula, Forrest and Sheldon cheer, HE DID IT! YAY CARL!
Carl’s bike tips forward, and he falls off.
[Bike clanging]
[Thudding]
Carl groans, OW.
[Carl moaning]
Arugula says, OH NO! ARE YOU OKAY, CARL?
Arugula rushes across the creek bridge with Forrest and Sheldon, and they all run over to Carl. Nico closely follows.
[Carl moaning]
Sheldon says, CARL!
[Carl groaning]
Sheldon pulls Carl onto his feet. Carl rubs the back of his head.
Sheldon asks, ARE YOU OKAY?
Carl says, OW.
Carl looks at his Collector Club watch.
Carl says, OH NO. MY NEW WATCH IS BROKEN!
The watch is cracked.
Arugula says, I THINK WE BETTER GET YOUR MOM, AND MAKE SURE YOUR WATCH ISN'T THE ONLY THING THAT'S BROKEN.
At Carl’s house, Carl sits on the front porch bench with his right wrist and paw in a cast. Arugula and Sheldon write on the cast. Forrest stands near Arugula. Nico stands by the front door with a frown. Carl’s Mama walks out with a tray of French fries and drinks.
Carl’s Mama says, ALRIGHT, WHO WANTS FRENCH FRIES?
Carl and his friends say, FRENCH FRIES!
Arugula says, I DO!
Carl’s Mama asks, AND HOW ABOUT KETCHUP?
Carl’s Mama sets the tray down on a table with a bottle of ketchup.
Sheldon says, THANK YOU!
Sheldon grabs one of the drinks. Forrest runs over with Arugula.
Forrest says, THANK YOU!
Arugula says, THANKS, MRS. CARL'S MOM.
Carl looks sad. His Mama brings him a drink.
Carl sadly says, THANKS, MAMA.
Carl sips the drink through a straw.
Carl’s Mama asks, HOW'S YOUR ARM FEELING, SWEETNESS?
Carl says, IT HURTS. A LOT.
Carl glances at his cast.
Carl’s Mama says, I KNOW, HONEY. YOU KNOW WHAT? BROKEN BONES DO HURT A LOT AT FIRST.
Carl says, AND I CAN'T DO ANYTHING THIS SUMMER WITH THE CAST ON. NO SWIMMING, NO BIKE RIDING…
Carl’s Mama says, AH, THAT'S TOUGH, BUT I'LL TELL YOU THIS. WHEN THE EIGHT WEEKS ARE OVER, YOUR ARM WILL BE ALL HEALED. IT'S GOING TO BE GOOD AS NEW. AND YOU KNOW, THE DOCTOR SAID YOU WERE PRETTY LUCKY, CARL. CARL'S MAMA: THAT FALL COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE.
Carl says, I KNOW. I SHOULD NOT HAVE LET WHAT NICO SAID BOTHER ME SO MUCH. I SHOULDN'T HAVE JUMPED THE CREEK.
Carl’s Mama says, THAT'S MY BOY.
Carl’s Mama kisses Carl on the head.
Carl’s Mama says, MWAH!
Carl’s Mama leaves, and Nico walks over.
Nico says, I STILL NEED TO SIGN YOUR CAST, CARL. IF THAT'S OKAY.
Carl says, IT IS, NICO.
Nico holds out his left arm, and Nico signs it.
Nico says, CARL, SO, UH, THE REAL REASON I SAID BIKES ARE FOR BABIES IS BECAUSE, WELL, UM, I ACTUALLY DON'T KNOW HOW TO RIDE A BIKE. I'M LEARNING, BUT I'M NOT VERY GOOD.
Carl says, YOU? YOU'RE NOT?
Nico says, NO, AND IT'S EMBARRASSING! YOU ALL ARE SO GOOD AT BIKE-RIDING, AND I CAN BARELY RIDE. THAT'S WHY I MADE FUN OF IT. I NEVER SHOULD HAVE SAID BIKES ARE FOR BABIES.
Carl says, SO YOU DO KNOW BIKES ARE NOT FOR BABIES AND NOT BORING! I DIDN'T HAVE TO PROVE IT!
Nico says, NO, YOU DIDN'T. SORRY.
Carl says, IT'S OKAY. HOW ABOUT AS SOON AS I GET MY CAST OFF AND CAN RIDE MY BIKE AGAIN, I’LL SHOW YOU EVERY MOVE I KNOW?
Nico says, YOU WILL? I WOULD LIKE THAT VERY MUCH!
Nico draws on Carl’s cast.
Nico says, TA-DA!
Carl looks at a drawing of a watch with a raccoon watch face.
Carl says, A DRAWING OF MY SPECIAL COLLECTOR'S CLUB WATCH? I LOVE IT! AND IT'S EXACTLY WHERE MY OLD ONE USED TO BE! THANK YOU, NICO!
Sheldon, Arugula and Forrest join Carl and Nico. They look at the Collector’s Club watch drawing.
Sheldon says, OH WOW!
Arugula says, WOW!
Forrest says, SWEET!
Sheldon says, LOOK AT THAT!
Arugula says, NICE DRAWING, SIS!
Sheldon says, WELL, CARL, YOU GOTTA WEAR THAT CAST FOR A WHILE, BUT ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, YOU DO HAVE A BRAND NEW COLLECTION. AN AUTOGRAPH COLLECTION!
Carl smiles. He looks up from the watch drawing and glances toward the street.
Carl says, HEY, WAIT A SECOND!
On the street, a baby rides in a seat on the back of a bike.
Carl says, WAS THAT...
The baby turns toward Carl and waves.
Carl says, …A BABY? ON A BIKE?
[Baby babbling]
Carl says, I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS. DID YOU ALL SEE THAT?
Sheldon, Arugula, Nico and Forrest stand around the tray of French fries with their backs to the street.
Carl says, WHAT?!
Carl waves back at the baby.
[Baby giggling]
[Groovy music plays]
