Transcript: Hacks for Your Grown Ups
Campers sleep in a tent under the stars. A photograph is taken. An egg is cooked in a frying pan. Purple yarn is knitted. A lever is pressed and battery power surges through a sign.
The title reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Toast pops out of a toaster. Gas shoots out of a beaker during an experiment.
Jenna, a dark-haired girl wearing denim overalls, rushes downstairs to the den. She meets Sahara, a dark-haired girl wearing a yellow t-shirt, and Yasmin, a blonde-haired girl wearing an orange blouse. They all sit at a round purple table.
Jenna, Sahara, and Yasmin say, HEY!
Sahara replies, HI.
Jenna says,
TODAY WE'VE GOT A STACK
OF HACKS LINED UP TO DAZZLE
THE ADULTS IN YOUR LIFE LIKE
NEVER BEFORE.
Sahara adds,
MAYBE YOU JUST NEED SOME NEW
GIFT IDEAS.
Yasmin says,
MAYBE YOU NEED TO GET
BACK INTO THEIR GOOD BOOKS.
Jenna says,
OR MAYBE YOU JUST NEED
TO MAKE THEM LOL.
(Laughing)
Yasmin says,
WE GOTCHA.
YOU CAN THANK US LATER.
Sahara says,
NOW LET'S GO SEE WHAT'S
HAPPENING.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Marianne, a dark-haired girl wearing a yellow t-shirt, holds up a collage of family photographs behind the craft table.
She says,
GIFT YOUR GROWN-UP A
SUPER-SIZED HOMEMADE FRAME.
Vinnie, a blonde-haired boy wearing a striped yellow t-shirt, stands beside a whiteboard decorated with small plants.
He says,
GET SOME GREENERY, ON YOUR
FRIDGE.

He says,
NEED A LAST MINUTE GIFT
FOR THE GROWN-UP IN YOUR LIFE,
IT'S ALL COMING TOGETHER.
Scarlet, A dark-haired girl wearing a blue and pink patterned t-shirt, holds up a glass jar filled with candy flowers.
She says,
LOLLIES, PLUS FLOWERS,
EQUALS BEST PRESENT EVER.
Gabe, a dark-haired boy wearing a green t-shirt, holds up a spray bottle.
He says,
NOTHING'S MORE OF A
PARENT-PLEASER THAN A NICE CLEAN
SCREEN.
Jenna plays with a chicken finger puppet.
She says,
PRANK THE GROWN-UPS IN YOUR
LIFE WITH THIS CREEPY CHICKEN.
BA-GAWK!
Marianne stands over a large ball of dough.
She says,
AND I'M GONNA SHOW YOU HOW
TO CREATE A PIZZA THAT'S GONNA
BLOW YOUR GROWN-UPS AWAY.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Jenna, Sahara, and Yasmin sit in the den.
Yasmin says,
WOW, I'M NOT GONNA LIE
I'M FEELING PRETTY PUMPED ABOUT
THE PIZZA YOU'RE MAKING TODAY.
Janna adds,
LOCK US IN FOR A TASTE TEST.
Sahara replies, FOR SURE.
Jenna says,
LET'S CHECK IN WITH MARIANNE.
A sign is painted with purple paint on a roller.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Marianne dances and laughs behind the craft table.
Text reads, “Marianne”.
Photographs lay in front of Marianne on the table.
Marianne says,
A PHOTO FRAME IS A GREAT
PRESENT TO GIVE TO THE ADULTS
IN YOUR LIFE.
BUT WHAT IF YOU CAN'T CHOOSE
JUST ONE AMAZING PHOTO?
WHAT IF YOU'VE GOT HEAPS OF
GREAT PHOTOS OF YOU AND YOUR
FAM?
OR JUST YOU.
NO SHADE.
THEN MAYBE YOU SHOULD TRY THIS.
A variety of photographs are hung from colourful clothes pegs.
Text reads, “Peg Photo Frame”.
Marianne says,
FOR THIS HACK YOU'LL NEED
SOME WOODEN PEGS, A CARDBOARD
RING, PHOTOS OF YOUR FAM...
(Horn honking)
Text reads, “Adult Alert”.
Marianne continues,
...AND A LOW TEMP GLUE GUN.
FIRST THING YOU'RE GOING TO DO
IS GRAB YOUR RING, THEN YOU'RE
GONNA GLUE DOWN YOUR PEGS
FACING OUTWARDS LIKE THIS.
YOU WANT TO SPACE THEM ABOUT A
FINGER SPACE APART.
AND KEEP GOING ALL THE WAY
AROUND.
The arms of a stopwatch spin.
Marianne says,
AND THIS IS THE LAST ONE.
AND IT'S FINISHED.
OOH IT'S KIND OF HEAVY.
NOW THAT THE PEGS ARE ALL STUCK
ON WE'RE GONNA ADD SOMETHING A
LITTLE EXTRA.
JUST GET SOME WOOL AND PUT
IT AROUND THE CIRCLE IN THE
MIDDLE.
YOU CAN MAKE ANY DESIGNS
YOU WANT TO.
THE ONLY LIMIT IS YOUR
IMAGINATION.
NOW THAT IT'S FINISHED START
PEGGING YOUR FAVOURITE FAMILY
PICTURES AROUND THE FRAME.
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE PHOTO OF
ME AND MY SISTER.
YOU CAN ADD SOME COLOURFUL
CARDS TO FILL UP THE SPACE
OR ANYTHING THAT REALLY GOES
WITH YOUR THEME.
AND NOW IT'S TIME TO HANG IT
SOMEWHERE SPECIAL.
WHAT'S BETTER THAN ONE PHOTO?
LOTS OF PHOTOS.
Marianne’s photographs hang from her peg frame.
Campers sleep in a tent under a full moon.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Vinnie rushes to the craft table holding up two peace signs.
Text reads, “Vinnie”.
Pots, plants, and newspaper lay on the table in front of Vinnie.
Vinnie says,
EVERYONE'S FRIDGE IS HOME
TO SOME MANKIE OLD SALAD GREENS.
I'D THROW 'EM OUT BUT I'M TOO
SCARED TO TOUCH THEM.
ERGH!
BUT WHAT IF YOU COULD GET THE
GREENS ON THE OUTSIDE OF YOUR
FRIDGE, RATHER THAN THE INSIDE?
MAYBE IT WOULD LOOK LIKE THIS.
Vinnie sprays water on small planters attached to the whiteboard with magnets.
He says,
HERE'S WHAT YOU'LL NEED.
AN ICE CUBE TRAY, NEWSPAPER CUT
INTO STRIPS, SCHOOL GLUE,
SPRAY OIL, MAGNETS, SUCCULENTS,
POTTING MIX, AND SOME GLOVES.
START OFF BY SPRAYING YOUR
ICE CUBE TRAY WITH OIL, SO
NOTHING STICKS.
NOW WHAT YOU WANT TO DO, IS RIP
YOUR STRIPS INTO A REASONABLE
LENGTH SO IT CAN FIT INSIDE
THE ICE CUBE TRAY.
TRY AND CREATE AND KIND OF
CROSS PATTERN.
KEEP DOING THAT WITH ALL OF THE
ICE CUBES.
ONCE YOU'RE DONE IT SHOULD LOOK
A BIT LIKE THIS.
Torn newspaper is stuffed into the holes of an ice cube tray.
Vinnie continues,
YOU WANT TO GLUE THE INSIDE OF
EACH OF THESE CONTAINERS YOU'VE
MADE OUT OF NEWSPAPER.
THIS BIT IS A LITTLE BIT FIDDLY
BUT YOU JUST WANT TO HOLD IT,
SO IT DOESN'T COME OUT OF THE
ICE CUBE TRAY.
ONCE ALL YOUR CUBES ARE DONE
JUST ADD ANOTHER CROSS-SECTION
OF PAPER.
YOU WANT TO DO THIS PROCESS OF
GLUING AND STICKING DOWN MORE
PAPER ABOUT THREE TIMES.
ONCE THAT'S DONE YOU JUST LEAVE
IT OUT FOR A DAY TO DRY.
ONCE THEY'VE DRIED THEY SHOULD
LIKE THIS.
(Horn honking)
Text reads, “Adult Alert”.
Vinnie cuts loose newspaper away from his newspaper pot with scissors.
He continues,
JUST TRIM UP THE EDGES, SO
THEY'RE LOOKING LIKE NEAT.
IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THEY LOOK
A BIT WONKY, IT'LL ALL BE FINE.
NOW GET AN ADULT TO HELP YOU
WITH A LOW TEMPERATURE GLUE GUN.
THANKS, ADULT.
SO YOU WANT TO PUT A BIT OF
GLUE ON THE BACK OF EACH MAGNET
AND STICK IT TO ANY SIDE OF
YOUR CUBES.
NOW IT'S TIME TO GET CREATIVE.
GRAB SOME PAINT OR MARKERS, AND
DECORATE THEM.
MY FIRST ONE I'M GONNA DO SOME
STRIPES.
USE SOME RED.
THEN I'M GONNA USE SOME YELLOW
AND DO LIKE A DIAGONAL LINE
ACROSS.
Vinnie paints one of his newspaper pots.
He says,
NOW IT'S TIME TO WHIP ON YOUR
GLOVES, CHUCK SOME POTTING MIX
IN, AND ADD A SUCCULENT.
START BY GRABBING YOUR
SUCCULENT AND PUTTING IT IN
THE POT FIRST.
AND A LITTLE POTTING MIX.
JUST PAT IT DOWN WITH YOUR
FINGER.
THERE YOU GO.
AND THEY'RE READY FOR THE FRIDGE
DOOR.
WHAT'S BETTER THAN GREENS
IN YOUR FRIDGE, GREENS ON YOUR
FRIDGE.
Two people give each other a handshake.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Text continues, “Embarrassing Parents?”.
Marianne says,
YES MY PARENTS ARE
EMBARRASSING IN EVERY WAY
POSSIBLE.
AREN'T THEY ALL?
Cooper, a dark-haired boy wearing an orange apron over his black and grey striped t-shirt, says,
MY DAD UM HE ADDS 'SHUN'
TO-- TO SOUND FRENCH AND HE
THINKS HE'S REALLY GOOD AT
FRENCH.
"EVAPORASHUN!"
OR LIKE "CONDENSASHUN".
YEAH, KEEPING WORKIN' ON IT,
DAD.
Piper, a dark-haired girl wearing a black and pink floral jacket, says,
OH, ONE JOKE THAT MY MUM
DOES ALL THE TIME IS WHEN I'M
HUNGRY I'LL SAY, "MUM, I'M
HUNGRY," AND SHE'LL SAY,
"OH HI, HUNGRY."
(Groaning)
A photograph is taken.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Cooper does a high kick as he jumps toward the craft table.
Text reads, “Cooper”.
Cooper rests his hands on the table.
He asks,
DO YOU EVER FIND THAT YOUR
POCKET MONEY JUST MAGICALLY
DISAPPEARS.
YEAH, ME TOO.
I'VE GOT A WAY TO MESS WITH YOUR
PARENTS' MINDS AND MAYBE MAKE A
BIT MORE MONEY.
OKAY, SO, WE HAVE OUR TWENTY
CENT COIN.
AND JUST TAKE IT, TAP FOR LUCK.
Cooper taps a coin on the table.
He says,
OKAY, NOW WITH THE MAGIC OF
COOPER MAGIC I'M GONNA TAKE THE
COIN FROM THIS HAND TO THIS
HAND.
YOU READY?
COOPER-KADABRA.
Cooper’s right hand is empty.
(Fanfare playing)
Cooper holds the coin in his left hand.
Cooper says,
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT WORKED.
YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW IT'S
DONE?
HERE IT IS.
THIS TRICK IS ACTUALLY REALLY
SIMPLE.
ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS HAVE
REALLY FAST HANDS AND A LOT
OF PRACTICE.
OKAY, SO THE FIRST STEP IS YOU
NEED TO CONVINCE THE AUDIENCE
THAT IT'S A NORMAL TWENTY CENT
COIN.
OKAY, NOW SECOND STEP, IT'S THE
MOST TRICKIEST, IT'S THE SLIDE
AND PICK UP.
SO YOU ACTUALLY AREN'T PICKING
THE COIN UP.
SO, YOU'RE SLIDING IT OFF
THE TABLE, AND ACTUALLY
CATCHING IT IN THE HAND BELOW.
YOU HAVE TO BUNCH YOUR FINGERS
UP LIKE THIS TO MAKE IT LOOK
LIKE YOU ACTUALLY HAVE THE COIN
IN YOUR HAND.
AND NOW THE THIRD STEP,
YOU HAVE TO TAP IT ON THE
TABLE TO MAKE IT-- MAKE IT LOOK
LIKE THE COIN'S STILL IN THIS
HAND.
BUT YOU'RE ACTUALLY MAKING THE
NOISE FROM UNDER THE TABLE WITH
THE COIN IN THIS HAND.
NOW, IT'S TIME TO REALLY WOW
YOUR AUDIENCE.
NOW, YOU HAVE THE PRETEND COIN
IN THIS HAND, AND THEN YOU
SAY YOUR MAGIC WORDS, AND THEN
THROW IT OVER TO THE OTHER SIDE.
MAKE SURE THE AUDIENCE KNOWS
THERE'S NOTHING IN THIS HAND.
AND THEN, REVEAL THE COIN IN
THIS HAND.
IT'S PRETTY COOL, HUH?
IF YOUR PARENTS WANT TO SEE THE
TRICK AGAIN, THEY'LL HAVE
TO GIVE YOUR MORE POCKET MONEY!
HUH, I'M A GENIUS!
A blue egg is flipped in a frying pan.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Sahara spins and jumps up and down behind the craft table.
Text reads, “Sahara”.
Pizza ingredients and dough sit in front of Sahara on the table.
Sahara says,
ALL PARENTS LOVE PIZZA.
FACT.
PLEASE DON'T FACT CHECK THAT
ONE.
BUT THEY'VE NEVER HAD PIZZA
QUITE LIKE THIS ONE.
A large dome of cooked dough is placed on a cutting board beside a pizza and a salad.
Text reads, “Pizza Balloon”.
Sahara says,
FOR THIS COOK, YOU'RE GONNA NEED
TWO CIRCLES OF PIZZA DOUGH,
EGG, TOMATO PASTE, YOUR
FAVOURITE TOPPING, A BALLOON
PUMP AND SOME TUBING--
YEAH, A BALLOON PUMP.
AND CLEAN HANDS.
FIRST YOU'RE GONNA NEED TO ROLL
OUT YOUR DOUGH.
MAKE SURE YOU PUT FLOUR FIRST SO
IT DOESN'T STICK TO THE TABLE.
WE'RE AIMING FOR A DINNER PLATE
SIZE.
I THINK THAT LOOKS GOOD.
LET'S PUT OUR PIZZA BASE ONTO
THE TRAY.
NOW, LET'S PUT OUR TOMATO PASTE
ON.
LEAVE A GAP RIGHT AROUND THE
EDGE.
ADD YOUR FAVOURITE TOPPINGS.
I'M GONNA ADD SOME CHEESE, SOME
TOMATO, A LITTLE BIT OF
CAPSICUM, AND ONE LITTLE BIT OF
BASIL ON THE TOP.
NORMAL PIZZA STUFF, RIGHT?
UP UNTIL NOW.
BRUSH THE EGG RIGHT AROUND THE
EDGES.
IT'S TIME FOR THE EXCITING BIT.
GRAB YOUR PUMP.
Sahara lays an air pump nozzle on her pizza and places another rolled-out piece of dough on top.
She continues,
NEXT GRAB THE OTHER PART OF
YOUR DOUGH THAT YOU ROLLED OUT
EARLIER.
JUST PLACE IT ON TOP.
WE'RE GONNA PINCH, THEN FOLD IT
IN TO SEAL.
KEEP IT GOING FOR THE WHOLE WAY
ROUND, 'CAUSE WE DON'T THE AIR
TO COME OUT.
IF IT'S NOT SEALED, IT'S NOT
GONNA WORK.
OKAY, FAM, I THINK IT'S TIME.
LET'S GET PUMPIN'.
Sahara pumps the air pump. The top layer of dough inflates.
Sahara says,
OKAY!
IT'S WORKING.
THIS LOOKS GOOD!
LET'S GET SEALING.
HOLD IT AND…
Sahara removes the nozzle and pinches the dough closed.
She says,
I DID IT, I DID IT!
IT LOOKS... AMAZING!
NOW, WE'RE GONNA PUT THIS PIZZA
(Horn honking)
Text reads, “Adult Alert”.
...IN THE OVEN FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES.
The arms of a stopwatch spin.
Sahara’s inflated pizza sits on a cutting board.
Sahara says,
AND THERE YOU HAVE IT, MY
BALLOON PIZZA.
TELL ME THIS WON'T IMPRESS THE
ADULTS IN YOUR LIFE.
NOW I'M GONNA GO IMPRESS MY
PEEPS IN THE DEN.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Sahara carries two balloon pizzas downstairs to the den. Yasmin and Jenna sit on the couch.
Sahara asks,
OKAY, WHO'S READY FOR MY
BALLOON PIZZA?
Sahara places the pizzas on the purple table. Yasmin and Jenna look at them.
They reply, WHOA!
Jenna asks, BUT WHERE'S YOURS?
(Knocking)
Sahara sits down and knocks on the table. Another pizza rises out of the middle of the table.
Yasmin says,
BALLOONS AND PIZZAS TOGETHER
AT LAST?
THIS IS GENIUS.
Jenna asks,
BUT HOW WILL THEY TASTE?
LET'S DIG IN AND RATE.
Sahara, Yasmin, and Jenna pull the top dough off and eat their pizza.
Yasmin says,
WOW!
OH, I CAN IMAGINE THE PARENTS
LOVING THIS.
Jenna nods while she eats.
Sahara replies,
YEAH.
IT'S TIME TO RATE IT.
Jenna chews her pizza.
She says, WAIT, HOLD ON.
(Laughing)
Jenna says, DRUM ROLL PLEASE.
(Dinging)
Sahara, Yasmin, and Jenna pound on the table with their hands. They pick up green paddles that read “Yay”.
Sahara, Yasmin, and Jenna shout,
YAY!
Yasmin adds, THREE YAYS.
Jenna says,
I LIKED IT BECAUSE OF THE
CRUST.
IT WAS SUPER CRUNCHY.
ON POINT.
Yasmin adds,
I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING
LIKE THIS.
IT WAS AWESOME!
Sahara looks pleased.
She replies,
I KNOW.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
(Laughing)
Jenna says,
DON'T GET TOO COMFY, YAS,
YOU'RE UP NEXT.
Yasmin replies,
OH!
YEAH!
She runs upstairs.
Jenna and Sahara say, BYE!
A switch is pressed and a battery powers a pink neon sign.
The sign reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Yasmin jumps up and spins behind the craft table.
Text reads, “Yasmin”.
Pieces of pool noodles lay on the table in front of Yasmin.
Yasmin asks,
WHAT DO ADULTS LOVE?
THEIR PHONES.
WHAT DO ADULTS HATE?
THEIR PHONES RUNNING OUT OF
CHARGE.
WHAT DO WE HATE THAT ADULTS
ALWAYS SAY?
"OH, CAN I BORROW YOUR CHANGER,
I'VE LOST MINE."
DON'T WORRY, FAM, HERE'S A
HACK THAT THEY'LL LOVE AND
YOU'LL LOVE TOO.
A cell phone sits in a holder decorated with stars and a colourful cord.
Text reads, “Phone Hammock”.
Yasmin says,
FOR THIS HACK YOU'LL
NEED AN OLD SHAMPOO BOTTLE...
(Horn honking)
Text reads, “Adult Alert”.
Yasmin continues,
...SCISSORS, A MARKER,
AND A POOL NOODLE.
FIRST WASH OUT YOUR BOTTLE,
BECAUSE SOAP PLUS PHONES IS
NOT A GOOD COMBO.
GET A MARKER AND DRAW A LINE
ABOUT HALFWAY DOWN YOUR BOTTLE.
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE
CONTAINER CONTINUE THE LINE, BUT
MAKE IT GO OUT TEN CENTIMETRES.
GET AN ADULT TO CUT ALONG THE
LINE... AND YOU SHOULD HAVE
SOMETHING THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS.
THANKS, ADULT.
Yasmin is tossed the cut bottom of a shampoo bottle.
Yasmin says,
GRAB A SMALL CHUNK OF POOL
NOODLE AND CUT IT DOWN THE
MIDDLE.
CUT IT AGAIN SO YOU HAVE A
PHONE WIDTH GAP.
NOW TO FIT THE POOL NOODLE INTO
THE CONTAINER YOU MAY NEED TO
SHAVE DOWN THE SIDES.
YOU CAN GET AN ADULT TO HELP.
THAT FITS PERFECT.
AND NOW, YOU'LL NEED TO PUT A
HOLE IN THE BACK OF YOUR
HAMMOCK...
AND ONE AT THE BOTTOM FOR
YOUR CABLE TO FIT IN.
THIS ISN'T SUPER IMPORTANT, BUT
IF YOU WANT THIS AS A PRESENT,
YOU CAN DECORATE IT LIKE THIS.
Yasmin’s phone hammock is decorated with silver stars and pink paper.
She says,
GET AN ADHESIVE HOOK AND STICK
IT NEXT TO THE POWER POINT.
AND, HEY PRESTO, YOUR PARENTS
WILL NEVER BOTHER YOU FOR YOUR
CHARGER EVER AGAIN.
IT'S A WIN-WIN.
A red milkshake is poured into a malt glass.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Text continues, “Bad Jokes?”.
Ashok says,
MY DAD WILL MAKE DAD JOKES A LOT.
AND IT-- IT WOULD BE-- SOME OF
THEM WOULD BE KIND OF AWKWARD,
BECAUSE HE WOULD SAY IT AND
NOBODY WOULD REACT.
HE WOULD BE ONLY BE LAUGHING AT
HIS OWN JOKE.
Yasmin says,
MY DAD DOESN'T REALLY JOKE,
BUT IF HE DOES THEY'RE NOT
REALLY FUNNY.
(Chuckling)
Gabe says,
MY DAD IS A DAD JOKER, BUT
I DON'T REALLY MIND HIS JOKES.
THEY'RE ACTUALLY PRETTY CLEVER.
LIKE THIS ONE:
HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF THE
CIRCUS?
IT'S 'IN-TENTS'.
Purple wool is knitted into hats and mittens.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Ashok dances and waves behind the craft table.
Text reads, “Ashok”.
A large toy dinosaur stands on the table in front of Ashok.
Ashok says,
PICTURE THIS, YOU REALISE
IT'S YOUR MUM, OR YOUR DAD,
OR YOUR AUNTY, OR YOU GRANDPA'S
BIRTHDAY, AND YOU'VE GOT
NOTHING AND NO CASH.
WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?
DON'T WORRY, I'VE GOT YOU.
Dinosaur toys form bookends on a spinning plate.
Text reads, “DIY Bookends”.
Ashok says,
FOR THIS HACK YOU WILL NEED
AN OLD HOLLOW TOY THAT YOU CAN
CUT IN HALF, SOME THICK
CARDBOARD, PEBBLES...
(Horn honking)
Text reads, “Adult Alert”.
Ashok adds,
AND A LOW TEMPERATURE GLUE GUN.
FIRST, YOU NEED TO GRAB
YOUR OLD TOY.
I CHOSE A DINOSAUR, BECAUSE MY
DAD LOVES DINOSAURS AND IT'S
HIS BIRTHDAY.
AND YOU'LL NEED A HANDY ADULT TO
HELP YOU CUT THIS THING IN HALF.
SO WE'VE GOT BOTH OF OUR HALVES.
THERE'S SOME STUFFING IN HERE.
I'M GONNA TAKE SOME STUFFING
OUT.
AND I'M GONNA ADD SOME PEBBLES
IN, JUST SO IT MAKES IT A
LITTLE BIT MORE HEAVIER.
Ashok fills the hollowed-out dinosaur halves with pebbles.
He says,
ADD THE LAST PIECES OF COTTON.
YEAH, THAT'S WAY HEAVIER.
NOW IT'S TIME TO SEAL IT.
GRAB A PIECE OF CARDBOARD THE
SIZE OF YOUR HOLE, PUT IT IN,
AND CAREFULLY ADD SOME GLUE,
AND LEAVE IT FOR A SECOND TO
DRY.
IT'S TIME TO MAKE THE BASE.
GRAB YOU THICK PIECES OF
CARDBOARD AND CUT 'EM INTO TWO
RECTANGLES ABOUT THE SIZE OF A
BOOK.
Ashok is tossed two pieces of cut cardboard.
He says,
THANKS, ADULT.
THESE LOOK A BIT PLAIN.
LET'S BRIGHTEN 'EM UP.
Painted cardboard appears in Ashok’s hands.
He responds,
AH, MUCH BETTER.
WE'RE GONNA GRAB OUR TWO PIECES
OF CARDBOARD.
WE'RE GONNA STICK 'EM TOGETHER
ON A RIGHT ANGLE.
MAKE SURE IT'S A NINETY DEGREE
ANGLE SO YOUR BOOKS CAN STAY
UPRIGHT.
LAST THING LEFT TO DO IS TO
GLUE MY DINOSAUR TO MY BASE
WITH MY TRUSTY GLUE GUN.
AND I'M GONNA PUT A COUPLE OF
BLOBS ON WHERE HIS FEET ARE
GONNA GO.
KEEP THE PRESSURE ON IT WHILE
THE GLUE DRIES.
IT COULD TAKE A COUPLE OF
MINUTES.
JUST DO THE SAME THING ON THE
OTHER HALF AND PRETTY SOON IT
WILL LOOK LIKE THIS.
HOW GOOD DOES THIS LOOK?
PERFECT FOR THE BIRTHDAY BOOK
LOVER IN YOUR HOUSE.
OOH, I HAVEN'T READ THIS ONE.
SEE YA!
A rocket ship flies through space.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Scarlet dances and runs around behind the craft table.
She says,
MY MUM LOVES GETTING
FLOWERS, BUT I WANT TO MAKE HER
SOME SPECIAL FLOWERS THAT SHE
CAN EAT.
YEAH, YOU HEARD ME, EAT.
Colourful candy flowers are displayed in a white mug.
Text reads, “Lolly Flowers”.
Scarlet says,
ALL YOU'LL NEED FOR THIS HACK
IS SOME CHEWY LOLLIES, A
ROLLING PIN, SOME PAPER STRAWS,
AND A CUTTING BOARD...
...AND CLEAN HANDS.
FIRST, LET YOUR LOLLIES WARM UP
IN THE SUN FOR A LITTLE BIT.
NOW GRAB YOUR ROLLING PIN.
AND THIS LOOKS JUST ABOUT
PERFECT.
Scarlet flattens out a yellow chewy candy.
She says,
THAT IS YOUR FIRST PETAL.
NOW, JUST DO THIS FOR ALL YOUR
LOLLIES.
Time runs through an hourglass.
Candy flower petals lay on the cutting board.
Scarlet says,
LET'S MAKE A FLOWER.
SO, WHAT YOU DO IS YOU GRAB ANY
STRAW AND THEN YOU JUST GRAB
THE TOP OF YOUR FLOWER AND WRAP
IT STRAIGHT AROUND LIKE THAT.
THEN GRAB ANOTHER ONE AND PUT
IT ON THE EXACT OPPOSITE SIDE.
SPREAD THE TOP OF THE PETAL OUT
SO IT LOOKS ALMOST LIKE THIS.
NOW WE'RE MAKING PROGRESS.
SMELLS LIKE SUGAR, AND I LOVE IT.
YOU'VE DONE ONE.
NOW, LET'S DO HEAPS MORE.
STORE THESE SOMEWHERE COOL
AND DRY.
NOT IN THE SUN, NOR THE FRIDGE.
AND BANG, HOW GOOD DOES THAT
LOOK!
Scarlet’s candy flowers are displayed in a glass vase.
Scarlet says,
MY MUM IS GONNA LOVE THIS!
MIGHT JUST HAVE TO TASTE ONE.
NOW THAT'S A TASTY FLOWER.
Scarlet eats one of the flowers.
Gas rises out of a beaker in a lab.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Gabe laughs as he pounds on the craft table.
Text reads, “Gabe”.
Gabe says,
IF YOUR PARENTS ARE ANYTHING
LIKE MINE, YOU JUST CAN'T GET
THEM AWAY FROM THEIR SCREENS.
SERIOUSLY, THEY'RE OUT OF
CONTROL.
PARENTS, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO,
HUH?
WELL, IF THEY ARE GONNA BE
GLUED TO THEIR SCREENS, THEY
MIGHT AS WELL BE CLEAN SCREENS.
SO, HERE'S A TIDY TECH TIP.
WOW, TRY AND SAY THAT TEN
TIMES FAST.
TIDY TECH TIP, TIDY TECH TIP,
TIDY TECH TICK, TIDY TECH TIP,
TAH-TAH...
YEAH I CAN'T DO IT.
Gabe sprays a cell phone screen.
Text reads, “Screen Cleaner”.
Gabe says,
ALL YOU NEED TO MAKE THOSE
SCREENS CLEAN ARE A MICROFIBER
CLOTH, WATER, VINEGAR
AND A CLEAN SPRAY BOTTLE.
JUST MIX THE WATER AND THE
VINEGAR AND THEN POUR IT INTO
THE SPRAY BOTTLE.
Gabe mixes water and vinegar and pours the mixture into the spray bottle with a funnel. The liquid spills onto the table.
Gabe asks,
CAN I HAVE A CLEAN-UP FOR THIS
CLEAN-UP PRODUCT?
THANK YOU.
Gabe is tossed a blue rag. He wipes the liquid off the table.
Gabe says,
LID BACK ON.
AND YOU'RE NEARLY DONE.
AND MAYBE TO MAKE IT LOOK NICE
YOU CAN MAKE A LITTLE LABEL.
CLEAN MCGEE'S CLEANING MACHINE.
Gabe sticks a label on his spray bottle.
He says,
AH, THERE WE GO.
AND THERE YOU HAVE IT, A DIY
SCREEN CLEANER THAT WILL MAKE
YOUR PARENTS TECH TOYS LOOKING
TIP TOP.
WOW, ANOTHER TONGUE TWISTER.
TECH TOYS TIP TOP, TECH
TE-TE-TAH, BLAH...
I THINK I DID THAT WORSE THAN
THE OTHER ONE.
SPEAKING OF WHICH.
Gabe wipes down a camera lens.
He says,
MUCH BETTER.
BYE!
Darts are thrown at a dart board.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Jenna rests her head in her hands as she leans on the craft table.
Text reads, “Jenna”.
Jenna asks,
YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING
NICE FOR THE GROWN-UPS IN YOUR
LIFE?
AW, THAT'S SO SWEET.
YOU SHOULD PRANK THEM...
WITH THIS.
(Clucking)
Jenna squeezes a chicken finger puppet out of an eggshell.
She says,
FOR THIS CUTE PRANK, YOU'LL
NEED SOME EGGS, SOME LUMPY
GLUE, AND SOME MATERIAL.
GRAB YOURSELF AN EGG, HOLLOW IT
OUT UNTIL IT LOOKS LIKE THIS.
WE'VE GOT A BIG END HERE,
AND THAT'S WHERE WE'RE GONNA
PUT OUR PRANK CHICKEN.
USE SOME MATERIAL TO MAKE
YOURSELF A LITTLE PUPPET.
I WENT FOR A CHICK.
AW, HE'S SO CUTE.
NEXT, GET YOUR EGG AND SPOON
SOME LUMPY GLUE INTO THE SHELL.
THIS IS BECAUSE I WANT TO GROSS
OUT MY MUM.
SORRY, MUM.
HOW MUCH CHICKEN GOOP DO WE
WANT?
AH, QUITE A LOT.
NEXT, GET YOUR CUTE LITTLE
FINGER PUPPET, AND MAYBE YOU
WANT TO TAPE IT ON.
POP YOUR FINGER PUPPET INTO THE
GOOP IN THE EGG.
SORRY, LITTLE CHICK.
YOU WANT TO HOLD IT LIKE THIS SO
NO-ONE ACTUALLY KNOWS THAT YOUR
FINGER'S INSIDE THE EGG.
I THINK THE CHICK IS HATCHING!
LET'S PRANK.
Text reads, “Ho to do Stuff Good”.
Jenna rushes downstairs to the den. Yasmin and Sahara sit at the round purple table.
Jenna says,
HEY, FAM, LOOK AT THE SHOOT.
An egg rolls down a long metal pipe. Jenna catches it.
Yasmin asks,
JENNA IS THAT AN EGG?
Jenna replies,
I THINK IT'S GONNA HATCH.
Sahara responds, OH!
Sahara and Yasmin gather around Jenna as she holds out the egg.
Yasmin adds,
IT'S GONNA BE SO CUTE.
OOH!
(Screaming)
Jenna pushes the chicken finger puppet out of the egg.
Sahara and Yasmin respond,
OH MY GOSH.
Yasmin adds, THAT WAS TERRIFYING.
Jenna says,
YOU'RE PRANKED.
THIS IS THE PERFECT PRANK FOR
THE GROWN-UPS IN YOUR LIFE.
Sahara replies,
I NEED TO TRY THIS ON MY MUM.
SORRY, MUM.
(Laughing)
Yasmin says,
I DON'T KNOW.
I'M STILL TERRIFIED FROM THAT.
OH MY GOSH.
Jenna holds her finger puppet up to Yasmin’s face.
Jenna says,
WELL, THAT'S ALL TIME WE
HAVE FOR TODAY.
SEE YOU NEXT TIME.
Jenna, Sahara, and Yasmin say, BYE!
Jenna holds up her finger puppet.
She says, BA-GAWK!
A narrator says,
FOR MORE INFORMATION ON
HOW TO DO STUFF GOOD
SEARCH UP ABC ME.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good. ABC”.
The title reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Toast pops out of a toaster. Gas shoots out of a beaker during an experiment.
Jenna, a dark-haired girl wearing denim overalls, rushes downstairs to the den. She meets Sahara, a dark-haired girl wearing a yellow t-shirt, and Yasmin, a blonde-haired girl wearing an orange blouse. They all sit at a round purple table.
Jenna, Sahara, and Yasmin say, HEY!
Sahara replies, HI.
Jenna says,
TODAY WE'VE GOT A STACK
OF HACKS LINED UP TO DAZZLE
THE ADULTS IN YOUR LIFE LIKE
NEVER BEFORE.
Sahara adds,
MAYBE YOU JUST NEED SOME NEW
GIFT IDEAS.
Yasmin says,
MAYBE YOU NEED TO GET
BACK INTO THEIR GOOD BOOKS.
Jenna says,
OR MAYBE YOU JUST NEED
TO MAKE THEM LOL.
(Laughing)
Yasmin says,
WE GOTCHA.
YOU CAN THANK US LATER.
Sahara says,
NOW LET'S GO SEE WHAT'S
HAPPENING.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Marianne, a dark-haired girl wearing a yellow t-shirt, holds up a collage of family photographs behind the craft table.
She says,
GIFT YOUR GROWN-UP A
SUPER-SIZED HOMEMADE FRAME.
Vinnie, a blonde-haired boy wearing a striped yellow t-shirt, stands beside a whiteboard decorated with small plants.

AND I'M GONNA SHOW YOU HOW
TO CREATE A PIZZA THAT'S GONNA
BLOW YOUR GROWN-UPS AWAY.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Jenna, Sahara, and Yasmin sit in the den.
Yasmin says,
WOW, I'M NOT GONNA LIE
I'M FEELING PRETTY PUMPED ABOUT
THE PIZZA YOU'RE MAKING TODAY.
Janna adds,
LOCK US IN FOR A TASTE TEST.
Sahara replies, FOR SURE.
Jenna says,
LET'S CHECK IN WITH MARIANNE.
A sign is painted with purple paint on a roller.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Marianne dances and laughs behind the craft table.
Text reads, “Marianne”.
Photographs lay in front of Marianne on the table.
Marianne says,
A PHOTO FRAME IS A GREAT
PRESENT TO GIVE TO THE ADULTS
IN YOUR LIFE.
BUT WHAT IF YOU CAN'T CHOOSE
JUST ONE AMAZING PHOTO?
WHAT IF YOU'VE GOT HEAPS OF
GREAT PHOTOS OF YOU AND YOUR
FAM?
OR JUST YOU.
NO SHADE.
THEN MAYBE YOU SHOULD TRY THIS.
A variety of photographs are hung from colourful clothes pegs.
Text reads, “Peg Photo Frame”.
Marianne says,
FOR THIS HACK YOU'LL NEED
SOME WOODEN PEGS, A CARDBOARD
RING, PHOTOS OF YOUR FAM...
(Horn honking)
Text reads, “Adult Alert”.
Marianne continues,
...AND A LOW TEMP GLUE GUN.
FIRST THING YOU'RE GOING TO DO
IS GRAB YOUR RING, THEN YOU'RE
GONNA GLUE DOWN YOUR PEGS
FACING OUTWARDS LIKE THIS.
YOU WANT TO SPACE THEM ABOUT A
FINGER SPACE APART.
AND KEEP GOING ALL THE WAY
AROUND.
The arms of a stopwatch spin.
Marianne says,
AND THIS IS THE LAST ONE.
AND IT'S FINISHED.
OOH IT'S KIND OF HEAVY.
NOW THAT THE PEGS ARE ALL STUCK
ON WE'RE GONNA ADD SOMETHING A
LITTLE EXTRA.
JUST GET SOME WOOL AND PUT
IT AROUND THE CIRCLE IN THE
MIDDLE.
YOU CAN MAKE ANY DESIGNS
YOU WANT TO.
THE ONLY LIMIT IS YOUR
IMAGINATION.
NOW THAT IT'S FINISHED START
PEGGING YOUR FAVOURITE FAMILY
PICTURES AROUND THE FRAME.
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE PHOTO OF
ME AND MY SISTER.
YOU CAN ADD SOME COLOURFUL
CARDS TO FILL UP THE SPACE
OR ANYTHING THAT REALLY GOES
WITH YOUR THEME.
AND NOW IT'S TIME TO HANG IT
SOMEWHERE SPECIAL.
WHAT'S BETTER THAN ONE PHOTO?
LOTS OF PHOTOS.
Marianne’s photographs hang from her peg frame.
Campers sleep in a tent under a full moon.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Vinnie rushes to the craft table holding up two peace signs.
Text reads, “Vinnie”.
Pots, plants, and newspaper lay on the table in front of Vinnie.
Vinnie says,
EVERYONE'S FRIDGE IS HOME
TO SOME MANKIE OLD SALAD GREENS.
I'D THROW 'EM OUT BUT I'M TOO
SCARED TO TOUCH THEM.
ERGH!
BUT WHAT IF YOU COULD GET THE
GREENS ON THE OUTSIDE OF YOUR
FRIDGE, RATHER THAN THE INSIDE?
MAYBE IT WOULD LOOK LIKE THIS.
Vinnie sprays water on small planters attached to the whiteboard with magnets.
He says,
HERE'S WHAT YOU'LL NEED.
AN ICE CUBE TRAY, NEWSPAPER CUT
INTO STRIPS, SCHOOL GLUE,
SPRAY OIL, MAGNETS, SUCCULENTS,
POTTING MIX, AND SOME GLOVES.
START OFF BY SPRAYING YOUR
ICE CUBE TRAY WITH OIL, SO
NOTHING STICKS.
NOW WHAT YOU WANT TO DO, IS RIP
YOUR STRIPS INTO A REASONABLE
LENGTH SO IT CAN FIT INSIDE
THE ICE CUBE TRAY.
TRY AND CREATE AND KIND OF
CROSS PATTERN.
KEEP DOING THAT WITH ALL OF THE
ICE CUBES.
ONCE YOU'RE DONE IT SHOULD LOOK
A BIT LIKE THIS.
Torn newspaper is stuffed into the holes of an ice cube tray.
Vinnie continues,
YOU WANT TO GLUE THE INSIDE OF
EACH OF THESE CONTAINERS YOU'VE
MADE OUT OF NEWSPAPER.
THIS BIT IS A LITTLE BIT FIDDLY
BUT YOU JUST WANT TO HOLD IT,
SO IT DOESN'T COME OUT OF THE
ICE CUBE TRAY.
ONCE ALL YOUR CUBES ARE DONE
JUST ADD ANOTHER CROSS-SECTION
OF PAPER.
YOU WANT TO DO THIS PROCESS OF
GLUING AND STICKING DOWN MORE
PAPER ABOUT THREE TIMES.
ONCE THAT'S DONE YOU JUST LEAVE
IT OUT FOR A DAY TO DRY.
ONCE THEY'VE DRIED THEY SHOULD
LIKE THIS.
(Horn honking)
Text reads, “Adult Alert”.
Vinnie cuts loose newspaper away from his newspaper pot with scissors.
He continues,
JUST TRIM UP THE EDGES, SO
THEY'RE LOOKING LIKE NEAT.
IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THEY LOOK
A BIT WONKY, IT'LL ALL BE FINE.
NOW GET AN ADULT TO HELP YOU
WITH A LOW TEMPERATURE GLUE GUN.
THANKS, ADULT.
SO YOU WANT TO PUT A BIT OF
GLUE ON THE BACK OF EACH MAGNET
AND STICK IT TO ANY SIDE OF
YOUR CUBES.
NOW IT'S TIME TO GET CREATIVE.
GRAB SOME PAINT OR MARKERS, AND
DECORATE THEM.
MY FIRST ONE I'M GONNA DO SOME
STRIPES.
USE SOME RED.
THEN I'M GONNA USE SOME YELLOW
AND DO LIKE A DIAGONAL LINE
ACROSS.
Vinnie paints one of his newspaper pots.
He says,
NOW IT'S TIME TO WHIP ON YOUR
GLOVES, CHUCK SOME POTTING MIX
IN, AND ADD A SUCCULENT.
START BY GRABBING YOUR
SUCCULENT AND PUTTING IT IN
THE POT FIRST.
AND A LITTLE POTTING MIX.
JUST PAT IT DOWN WITH YOUR
FINGER.
THERE YOU GO.
AND THEY'RE READY FOR THE FRIDGE
DOOR.
WHAT'S BETTER THAN GREENS
IN YOUR FRIDGE, GREENS ON YOUR
FRIDGE.
Two people give each other a handshake.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Text continues, “Embarrassing Parents?”.
Marianne says,
YES MY PARENTS ARE
EMBARRASSING IN EVERY WAY
POSSIBLE.
AREN'T THEY ALL?
Cooper, a dark-haired boy wearing an orange apron over his black and grey striped t-shirt, says,
MY DAD UM HE ADDS 'SHUN'
TO-- TO SOUND FRENCH AND HE
THINKS HE'S REALLY GOOD AT
FRENCH.
"EVAPORASHUN!"
OR LIKE "CONDENSASHUN".
YEAH, KEEPING WORKIN' ON IT,
DAD.
Piper, a dark-haired girl wearing a black and pink floral jacket, says,
OH, ONE JOKE THAT MY MUM
DOES ALL THE TIME IS WHEN I'M
HUNGRY I'LL SAY, "MUM, I'M
HUNGRY," AND SHE'LL SAY,
"OH HI, HUNGRY."
(Groaning)
A photograph is taken.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Cooper does a high kick as he jumps toward the craft table.
Text reads, “Cooper”.
Cooper rests his hands on the table.
He asks,
DO YOU EVER FIND THAT YOUR
POCKET MONEY JUST MAGICALLY
DISAPPEARS.
YEAH, ME TOO.
I'VE GOT A WAY TO MESS WITH YOUR
PARENTS' MINDS AND MAYBE MAKE A
BIT MORE MONEY.
OKAY, SO, WE HAVE OUR TWENTY
CENT COIN.
AND JUST TAKE IT, TAP FOR LUCK.
Cooper taps a coin on the table.
He says,
OKAY, NOW WITH THE MAGIC OF
COOPER MAGIC I'M GONNA TAKE THE
COIN FROM THIS HAND TO THIS
HAND.
YOU READY?
COOPER-KADABRA.
Cooper’s right hand is empty.
(Fanfare playing)
Cooper holds the coin in his left hand.
Cooper says,
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT WORKED.
YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW IT'S
DONE?
HERE IT IS.
THIS TRICK IS ACTUALLY REALLY
SIMPLE.
ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS HAVE
REALLY FAST HANDS AND A LOT
OF PRACTICE.
OKAY, SO THE FIRST STEP IS YOU
NEED TO CONVINCE THE AUDIENCE
THAT IT'S A NORMAL TWENTY CENT
COIN.
OKAY, NOW SECOND STEP, IT'S THE
MOST TRICKIEST, IT'S THE SLIDE
AND PICK UP.
SO YOU ACTUALLY AREN'T PICKING
THE COIN UP.
SO, YOU'RE SLIDING IT OFF
THE TABLE, AND ACTUALLY
CATCHING IT IN THE HAND BELOW.
YOU HAVE TO BUNCH YOUR FINGERS
UP LIKE THIS TO MAKE IT LOOK
LIKE YOU ACTUALLY HAVE THE COIN
IN YOUR HAND.
AND NOW THE THIRD STEP,
YOU HAVE TO TAP IT ON THE
TABLE TO MAKE IT-- MAKE IT LOOK
LIKE THE COIN'S STILL IN THIS
HAND.
BUT YOU'RE ACTUALLY MAKING THE
NOISE FROM UNDER THE TABLE WITH
THE COIN IN THIS HAND.
NOW, IT'S TIME TO REALLY WOW
YOUR AUDIENCE.
NOW, YOU HAVE THE PRETEND COIN
IN THIS HAND, AND THEN YOU
SAY YOUR MAGIC WORDS, AND THEN
THROW IT OVER TO THE OTHER SIDE.
MAKE SURE THE AUDIENCE KNOWS
THERE'S NOTHING IN THIS HAND.
AND THEN, REVEAL THE COIN IN
THIS HAND.
IT'S PRETTY COOL, HUH?
IF YOUR PARENTS WANT TO SEE THE
TRICK AGAIN, THEY'LL HAVE
TO GIVE YOUR MORE POCKET MONEY!
HUH, I'M A GENIUS!
A blue egg is flipped in a frying pan.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Sahara spins and jumps up and down behind the craft table.
Text reads, “Sahara”.
Pizza ingredients and dough sit in front of Sahara on the table.
Sahara says,
ALL PARENTS LOVE PIZZA.
FACT.
PLEASE DON'T FACT CHECK THAT
ONE.
BUT THEY'VE NEVER HAD PIZZA
QUITE LIKE THIS ONE.
A large dome of cooked dough is placed on a cutting board beside a pizza and a salad.
Text reads, “Pizza Balloon”.
Sahara says,
FOR THIS COOK, YOU'RE GONNA NEED
TWO CIRCLES OF PIZZA DOUGH,
EGG, TOMATO PASTE, YOUR
FAVOURITE TOPPING, A BALLOON
PUMP AND SOME TUBING--
YEAH, A BALLOON PUMP.
AND CLEAN HANDS.
FIRST YOU'RE GONNA NEED TO ROLL
OUT YOUR DOUGH.
MAKE SURE YOU PUT FLOUR FIRST SO
IT DOESN'T STICK TO THE TABLE.
WE'RE AIMING FOR A DINNER PLATE
SIZE.
I THINK THAT LOOKS GOOD.
LET'S PUT OUR PIZZA BASE ONTO
THE TRAY.
NOW, LET'S PUT OUR TOMATO PASTE
ON.
LEAVE A GAP RIGHT AROUND THE
EDGE.
ADD YOUR FAVOURITE TOPPINGS.
I'M GONNA ADD SOME CHEESE, SOME
TOMATO, A LITTLE BIT OF
CAPSICUM, AND ONE LITTLE BIT OF
BASIL ON THE TOP.
NORMAL PIZZA STUFF, RIGHT?
UP UNTIL NOW.
BRUSH THE EGG RIGHT AROUND THE
EDGES.
IT'S TIME FOR THE EXCITING BIT.
GRAB YOUR PUMP.
Sahara lays an air pump nozzle on her pizza and places another rolled-out piece of dough on top.
She continues,
NEXT GRAB THE OTHER PART OF
YOUR DOUGH THAT YOU ROLLED OUT
EARLIER.
JUST PLACE IT ON TOP.
WE'RE GONNA PINCH, THEN FOLD IT
IN TO SEAL.
KEEP IT GOING FOR THE WHOLE WAY
ROUND, 'CAUSE WE DON'T THE AIR
TO COME OUT.
IF IT'S NOT SEALED, IT'S NOT
GONNA WORK.
OKAY, FAM, I THINK IT'S TIME.
LET'S GET PUMPIN'.
Sahara pumps the air pump. The top layer of dough inflates.
Sahara says,
OKAY!
IT'S WORKING.
THIS LOOKS GOOD!
LET'S GET SEALING.
HOLD IT AND…
Sahara removes the nozzle and pinches the dough closed.
She says,
I DID IT, I DID IT!
IT LOOKS... AMAZING!
NOW, WE'RE GONNA PUT THIS PIZZA
(Horn honking)
Text reads, “Adult Alert”.
...IN THE OVEN FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES.
The arms of a stopwatch spin.
Sahara’s inflated pizza sits on a cutting board.
Sahara says,
AND THERE YOU HAVE IT, MY
BALLOON PIZZA.
TELL ME THIS WON'T IMPRESS THE
ADULTS IN YOUR LIFE.
NOW I'M GONNA GO IMPRESS MY
PEEPS IN THE DEN.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Sahara carries two balloon pizzas downstairs to the den. Yasmin and Jenna sit on the couch.
Sahara asks,
OKAY, WHO'S READY FOR MY
BALLOON PIZZA?
Sahara places the pizzas on the purple table. Yasmin and Jenna look at them.
They reply, WHOA!
Jenna asks, BUT WHERE'S YOURS?
(Knocking)
Sahara sits down and knocks on the table. Another pizza rises out of the middle of the table.
Yasmin says,
BALLOONS AND PIZZAS TOGETHER
AT LAST?
THIS IS GENIUS.
Jenna asks,
BUT HOW WILL THEY TASTE?
LET'S DIG IN AND RATE.
Sahara, Yasmin, and Jenna pull the top dough off and eat their pizza.
Yasmin says,
WOW!
OH, I CAN IMAGINE THE PARENTS
LOVING THIS.
Jenna nods while she eats.
Sahara replies,
YEAH.
IT'S TIME TO RATE IT.
Jenna chews her pizza.
She says, WAIT, HOLD ON.
(Laughing)
Jenna says, DRUM ROLL PLEASE.
(Dinging)
Sahara, Yasmin, and Jenna pound on the table with their hands. They pick up green paddles that read “Yay”.
Sahara, Yasmin, and Jenna shout,
YAY!
Yasmin adds, THREE YAYS.
Jenna says,
I LIKED IT BECAUSE OF THE
CRUST.
IT WAS SUPER CRUNCHY.
ON POINT.
Yasmin adds,
I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING
LIKE THIS.
IT WAS AWESOME!
Sahara looks pleased.
She replies,
I KNOW.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
(Laughing)
Jenna says,
DON'T GET TOO COMFY, YAS,
YOU'RE UP NEXT.
Yasmin replies,
OH!
YEAH!
She runs upstairs.
Jenna and Sahara say, BYE!
A switch is pressed and a battery powers a pink neon sign.
The sign reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Yasmin jumps up and spins behind the craft table.
Text reads, “Yasmin”.
Pieces of pool noodles lay on the table in front of Yasmin.
Yasmin asks,
WHAT DO ADULTS LOVE?
THEIR PHONES.
WHAT DO ADULTS HATE?
THEIR PHONES RUNNING OUT OF
CHARGE.
WHAT DO WE HATE THAT ADULTS
ALWAYS SAY?
"OH, CAN I BORROW YOUR CHANGER,
I'VE LOST MINE."
DON'T WORRY, FAM, HERE'S A
HACK THAT THEY'LL LOVE AND
YOU'LL LOVE TOO.
A cell phone sits in a holder decorated with stars and a colourful cord.
Text reads, “Phone Hammock”.
Yasmin says,
FOR THIS HACK YOU'LL
NEED AN OLD SHAMPOO BOTTLE...
(Horn honking)
Text reads, “Adult Alert”.
Yasmin continues,
...SCISSORS, A MARKER,
AND A POOL NOODLE.
FIRST WASH OUT YOUR BOTTLE,
BECAUSE SOAP PLUS PHONES IS
NOT A GOOD COMBO.
GET A MARKER AND DRAW A LINE
ABOUT HALFWAY DOWN YOUR BOTTLE.
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE
CONTAINER CONTINUE THE LINE, BUT
MAKE IT GO OUT TEN CENTIMETRES.
GET AN ADULT TO CUT ALONG THE
LINE... AND YOU SHOULD HAVE
SOMETHING THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS.
THANKS, ADULT.
Yasmin is tossed the cut bottom of a shampoo bottle.
Yasmin says,
GRAB A SMALL CHUNK OF POOL
NOODLE AND CUT IT DOWN THE
MIDDLE.
CUT IT AGAIN SO YOU HAVE A
PHONE WIDTH GAP.
NOW TO FIT THE POOL NOODLE INTO
THE CONTAINER YOU MAY NEED TO
SHAVE DOWN THE SIDES.
YOU CAN GET AN ADULT TO HELP.
THAT FITS PERFECT.
AND NOW, YOU'LL NEED TO PUT A
HOLE IN THE BACK OF YOUR
HAMMOCK...
AND ONE AT THE BOTTOM FOR
YOUR CABLE TO FIT IN.
THIS ISN'T SUPER IMPORTANT, BUT
IF YOU WANT THIS AS A PRESENT,
YOU CAN DECORATE IT LIKE THIS.
Yasmin’s phone hammock is decorated with silver stars and pink paper.
She says,
GET AN ADHESIVE HOOK AND STICK
IT NEXT TO THE POWER POINT.
AND, HEY PRESTO, YOUR PARENTS
WILL NEVER BOTHER YOU FOR YOUR
CHARGER EVER AGAIN.
IT'S A WIN-WIN.
A red milkshake is poured into a malt glass.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Text continues, “Bad Jokes?”.
Ashok says,
MY DAD WILL MAKE DAD JOKES A LOT.
AND IT-- IT WOULD BE-- SOME OF
THEM WOULD BE KIND OF AWKWARD,
BECAUSE HE WOULD SAY IT AND
NOBODY WOULD REACT.
HE WOULD BE ONLY BE LAUGHING AT
HIS OWN JOKE.
Yasmin says,
MY DAD DOESN'T REALLY JOKE,
BUT IF HE DOES THEY'RE NOT
REALLY FUNNY.
(Chuckling)
Gabe says,
MY DAD IS A DAD JOKER, BUT
I DON'T REALLY MIND HIS JOKES.
THEY'RE ACTUALLY PRETTY CLEVER.
LIKE THIS ONE:
HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF THE
CIRCUS?
IT'S 'IN-TENTS'.
Purple wool is knitted into hats and mittens.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Ashok dances and waves behind the craft table.
Text reads, “Ashok”.
A large toy dinosaur stands on the table in front of Ashok.
Ashok says,
PICTURE THIS, YOU REALISE
IT'S YOUR MUM, OR YOUR DAD,
OR YOUR AUNTY, OR YOU GRANDPA'S
BIRTHDAY, AND YOU'VE GOT
NOTHING AND NO CASH.
WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?
DON'T WORRY, I'VE GOT YOU.
Dinosaur toys form bookends on a spinning plate.
Text reads, “DIY Bookends”.
Ashok says,
FOR THIS HACK YOU WILL NEED
AN OLD HOLLOW TOY THAT YOU CAN
CUT IN HALF, SOME THICK
CARDBOARD, PEBBLES...
(Horn honking)
Text reads, “Adult Alert”.
Ashok adds,
AND A LOW TEMPERATURE GLUE GUN.
FIRST, YOU NEED TO GRAB
YOUR OLD TOY.
I CHOSE A DINOSAUR, BECAUSE MY
DAD LOVES DINOSAURS AND IT'S
HIS BIRTHDAY.
AND YOU'LL NEED A HANDY ADULT TO
HELP YOU CUT THIS THING IN HALF.
SO WE'VE GOT BOTH OF OUR HALVES.
THERE'S SOME STUFFING IN HERE.
I'M GONNA TAKE SOME STUFFING
OUT.
AND I'M GONNA ADD SOME PEBBLES
IN, JUST SO IT MAKES IT A
LITTLE BIT MORE HEAVIER.
Ashok fills the hollowed-out dinosaur halves with pebbles.
He says,
ADD THE LAST PIECES OF COTTON.
YEAH, THAT'S WAY HEAVIER.
NOW IT'S TIME TO SEAL IT.
GRAB A PIECE OF CARDBOARD THE
SIZE OF YOUR HOLE, PUT IT IN,
AND CAREFULLY ADD SOME GLUE,
AND LEAVE IT FOR A SECOND TO
DRY.
IT'S TIME TO MAKE THE BASE.
GRAB YOU THICK PIECES OF
CARDBOARD AND CUT 'EM INTO TWO
RECTANGLES ABOUT THE SIZE OF A
BOOK.
Ashok is tossed two pieces of cut cardboard.
He says,
THANKS, ADULT.
THESE LOOK A BIT PLAIN.
LET'S BRIGHTEN 'EM UP.
Painted cardboard appears in Ashok’s hands.
He responds,
AH, MUCH BETTER.
WE'RE GONNA GRAB OUR TWO PIECES
OF CARDBOARD.
WE'RE GONNA STICK 'EM TOGETHER
ON A RIGHT ANGLE.
MAKE SURE IT'S A NINETY DEGREE
ANGLE SO YOUR BOOKS CAN STAY
UPRIGHT.
LAST THING LEFT TO DO IS TO
GLUE MY DINOSAUR TO MY BASE
WITH MY TRUSTY GLUE GUN.
AND I'M GONNA PUT A COUPLE OF
BLOBS ON WHERE HIS FEET ARE
GONNA GO.
KEEP THE PRESSURE ON IT WHILE
THE GLUE DRIES.
IT COULD TAKE A COUPLE OF
MINUTES.
JUST DO THE SAME THING ON THE
OTHER HALF AND PRETTY SOON IT
WILL LOOK LIKE THIS.
HOW GOOD DOES THIS LOOK?
PERFECT FOR THE BIRTHDAY BOOK
LOVER IN YOUR HOUSE.
OOH, I HAVEN'T READ THIS ONE.
SEE YA!
A rocket ship flies through space.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Scarlet dances and runs around behind the craft table.
She says,
MY MUM LOVES GETTING
FLOWERS, BUT I WANT TO MAKE HER
SOME SPECIAL FLOWERS THAT SHE
CAN EAT.
YEAH, YOU HEARD ME, EAT.
Colourful candy flowers are displayed in a white mug.
Text reads, “Lolly Flowers”.
Scarlet says,
ALL YOU'LL NEED FOR THIS HACK
IS SOME CHEWY LOLLIES, A
ROLLING PIN, SOME PAPER STRAWS,
AND A CUTTING BOARD...
...AND CLEAN HANDS.
FIRST, LET YOUR LOLLIES WARM UP
IN THE SUN FOR A LITTLE BIT.
NOW GRAB YOUR ROLLING PIN.
AND THIS LOOKS JUST ABOUT
PERFECT.
Scarlet flattens out a yellow chewy candy.
She says,
THAT IS YOUR FIRST PETAL.
NOW, JUST DO THIS FOR ALL YOUR
LOLLIES.
Time runs through an hourglass.
Candy flower petals lay on the cutting board.
Scarlet says,
LET'S MAKE A FLOWER.
SO, WHAT YOU DO IS YOU GRAB ANY
STRAW AND THEN YOU JUST GRAB
THE TOP OF YOUR FLOWER AND WRAP
IT STRAIGHT AROUND LIKE THAT.
THEN GRAB ANOTHER ONE AND PUT
IT ON THE EXACT OPPOSITE SIDE.
SPREAD THE TOP OF THE PETAL OUT
SO IT LOOKS ALMOST LIKE THIS.
NOW WE'RE MAKING PROGRESS.
SMELLS LIKE SUGAR, AND I LOVE IT.
YOU'VE DONE ONE.
NOW, LET'S DO HEAPS MORE.
STORE THESE SOMEWHERE COOL
AND DRY.
NOT IN THE SUN, NOR THE FRIDGE.
AND BANG, HOW GOOD DOES THAT
LOOK!
Scarlet’s candy flowers are displayed in a glass vase.
Scarlet says,
MY MUM IS GONNA LOVE THIS!
MIGHT JUST HAVE TO TASTE ONE.
NOW THAT'S A TASTY FLOWER.
Scarlet eats one of the flowers.
Gas rises out of a beaker in a lab.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Gabe laughs as he pounds on the craft table.
Text reads, “Gabe”.
Gabe says,
IF YOUR PARENTS ARE ANYTHING
LIKE MINE, YOU JUST CAN'T GET
THEM AWAY FROM THEIR SCREENS.
SERIOUSLY, THEY'RE OUT OF
CONTROL.
PARENTS, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO,
HUH?
WELL, IF THEY ARE GONNA BE
GLUED TO THEIR SCREENS, THEY
MIGHT AS WELL BE CLEAN SCREENS.
SO, HERE'S A TIDY TECH TIP.
WOW, TRY AND SAY THAT TEN
TIMES FAST.
TIDY TECH TIP, TIDY TECH TIP,
TIDY TECH TICK, TIDY TECH TIP,
TAH-TAH...
YEAH I CAN'T DO IT.
Gabe sprays a cell phone screen.
Text reads, “Screen Cleaner”.
Gabe says,
ALL YOU NEED TO MAKE THOSE
SCREENS CLEAN ARE A MICROFIBER
CLOTH, WATER, VINEGAR
AND A CLEAN SPRAY BOTTLE.
JUST MIX THE WATER AND THE
VINEGAR AND THEN POUR IT INTO
THE SPRAY BOTTLE.
Gabe mixes water and vinegar and pours the mixture into the spray bottle with a funnel. The liquid spills onto the table.
Gabe asks,
CAN I HAVE A CLEAN-UP FOR THIS
CLEAN-UP PRODUCT?
THANK YOU.
Gabe is tossed a blue rag. He wipes the liquid off the table.
Gabe says,
LID BACK ON.
AND YOU'RE NEARLY DONE.
AND MAYBE TO MAKE IT LOOK NICE
YOU CAN MAKE A LITTLE LABEL.
CLEAN MCGEE'S CLEANING MACHINE.
Gabe sticks a label on his spray bottle.
He says,
AH, THERE WE GO.
AND THERE YOU HAVE IT, A DIY
SCREEN CLEANER THAT WILL MAKE
YOUR PARENTS TECH TOYS LOOKING
TIP TOP.
WOW, ANOTHER TONGUE TWISTER.
TECH TOYS TIP TOP, TECH
TE-TE-TAH, BLAH...
I THINK I DID THAT WORSE THAN
THE OTHER ONE.
SPEAKING OF WHICH.
Gabe wipes down a camera lens.
He says,
MUCH BETTER.
BYE!
Darts are thrown at a dart board.
Text reads, “How to do Stuff Good”.
Jenna rests her head in her hands as she leans on the craft table.
Text reads, “Jenna”.
Jenna asks,
YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING
NICE FOR THE GROWN-UPS IN YOUR
LIFE?
AW, THAT'S SO SWEET.
YOU SHOULD PRANK THEM...
WITH THIS.
(Clucking)
Jenna squeezes a chicken finger puppet out of an eggshell.
She says,
FOR THIS CUTE PRANK, YOU'LL
NEED SOME EGGS, SOME LUMPY
GLUE, AND SOME MATERIAL.
GRAB YOURSELF AN EGG, HOLLOW IT
OUT UNTIL IT LOOKS LIKE THIS.
WE'VE GOT A BIG END HERE,
AND THAT'S WHERE WE'RE GONNA
PUT OUR PRANK CHICKEN.
USE SOME MATERIAL TO MAKE
YOURSELF A LITTLE PUPPET.
I WENT FOR A CHICK.
AW, HE'S SO CUTE.
NEXT, GET YOUR EGG AND SPOON
SOME LUMPY GLUE INTO THE SHELL.
THIS IS BECAUSE I WANT TO GROSS
OUT MY MUM.
SORRY, MUM.
HOW MUCH CHICKEN GOOP DO WE
WANT?
AH, QUITE A LOT.
NEXT, GET YOUR CUTE LITTLE
FINGER PUPPET, AND MAYBE YOU
WANT TO TAPE IT ON.
POP YOUR FINGER PUPPET INTO THE
GOOP IN THE EGG.
SORRY, LITTLE CHICK.
YOU WANT TO HOLD IT LIKE THIS SO
NO-ONE ACTUALLY KNOWS THAT YOUR
FINGER'S INSIDE THE EGG.
I THINK THE CHICK IS HATCHING!
LET'S PRANK.
Text reads, “Ho to do Stuff Good”.
Jenna rushes downstairs to the den. Yasmin and Sahara sit at the round purple table.
Jenna says,
HEY, FAM, LOOK AT THE SHOOT.
An egg rolls down a long metal pipe. Jenna catches it.
Yasmin asks,
JENNA IS THAT AN EGG?
Jenna replies,
I THINK IT'S GONNA HATCH.
Sahara responds, OH!
Sahara and Yasmin gather around Jenna as she holds out the egg.
Yasmin adds,
IT'S GONNA BE SO CUTE.
OOH!
(Screaming)
Jenna pushes the chicken finger puppet out of the egg.
Sahara and Yasmin respond,
OH MY GOSH.
Yasmin adds, THAT WAS TERRIFYING.
Jenna says,
YOU'RE PRANKED.
THIS IS THE PERFECT PRANK FOR
THE GROWN-UPS IN YOUR LIFE.
Sahara replies,
I NEED TO TRY THIS ON MY MUM.
SORRY, MUM.
(Laughing)
Yasmin says,
I DON'T KNOW.
I'M STILL TERRIFIED FROM THAT.
OH MY GOSH.
Jenna holds her finger puppet up to Yasmin’s face.
Jenna says,
WELL, THAT'S ALL TIME WE
HAVE FOR TODAY.
SEE YOU NEXT TIME.
Jenna, Sahara, and Yasmin say, BYE!
Jenna holds up her finger puppet.
She says, BA-GAWK!
