14
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,260
Yesterday, I set up a cake stall
to help homeless puppies.

15
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,020
Help the homeless puppies!

16
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:44,180
Buy some yummy cake! All money goes
to help puppies without a home!

17
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:48,140
I asked Tamara and Debra-Jo to run
it with me. They really got into it.

18
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,660
Little puppies need a home!
Just $1 for a slice of cake!

19
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,300
I couldn't understand it. Nobody
wanted to help homeless puppies.

20
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:01,100
How could anyone not care
about puppies without a home? How?

21
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,220
I think the problem
with Melanie's cake stall

22
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:04,980
was she'd picked the wrong charity.

23
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,260
It's not that I don't care
about homeless puppies.

24
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:08,820
I care about homeless puppies.

25
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,860
It's just there are more important
things to raise money for.

26
00:01:11,960 --> 00:01:15,020
More important things
than homeless puppies? Like?

27
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,380
Like netballs. Have you had
a good look at our netballs lately?

28
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,780
No. No-one has, because we don't
have any. We really need netballs.

29
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,540
I don't think the cause was the
problem with Melanie's cake stall.

30
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,260
I think the problem
with her cake stall was her cake.

31
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,140
That was definitely another problem.

32
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,060
She'd only made one cake
and it was...

33
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,160
Disgusting.

34
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,380
I was very proud of my cake.

35
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,860
It was a ginger hedgehog slice,
and I made it all by myself.

36
00:01:43,960 --> 00:01:45,780
It looked a bit funny

37
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,980
because everyone at school
has allergies to different things,

38
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,900
so I had to leave out things.

39
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,300
I left out milk, eggs,
gluten, shellfish.

40
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,880
Actually,
the shellfish was easy to leave out.

41
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,940
It's for the homeless puppies!

42
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:07,660
Also, the cake had no butter, no
nuts, no sesame seeds, no coconut.

43
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,780
No flavour.
No texture.

44
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,920
No customers.

45
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,780
Why doesn't anyone want
to buy my cake?

46
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,460
I think maybe it's the ginger.
Yeah, it's the ginger.

47
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,340
It would definitely be the ginger.

48
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,440
There's not even ginger in it!

49
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,580
I left the ginger out too.
Nobody likes ginger.

50
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,580
Yummy and delicious ginger hedgehog
slice without any ginger!

51
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,980
Only $1 a piece!

52
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,940
Help the homeless puppies!

53
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:43,140
We should have the cake stall
tomorrow and we can all bring cakes.

54
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,900
I'll make shortbread biscuits.
I'll make caramel cupcakes.

55
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,980
We'll make a big banner.
I'll bring balloons.

56
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,820
But what about my slice?
It'll be yucky by tomorrow.

57
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:52,900
Yucky by tomorrow?

58
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,700
It was yucky
the moment it came out of the oven.

59
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,620
It was yucky the moment
Melanie thought about making it.

60
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,540
But Melanie didn't think
it was yucky,

61
00:03:00,640 --> 00:03:03,060
and she did not want
to postpone the cake stall.

62
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,300
If we have the cake stall tomorrow,
I'll have to throw my cake out

63
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,340
which I'm obviously not going to do.
I need to sell it today.

64
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,780
But, Melanie, I don't think you're
going to sell it today because...

65
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,340
..because it doesn't look ...

66
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:18,820
It looks...

67
00:03:18,920 --> 00:03:20,300
Not delicious.

68
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,860
That's only because it doesn't have
flour, eggs, butter or sugar.

69
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,660
As soon as someone tastes it,
they'll say it's delicious.

70
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,260
Maybe she had a point.

71
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,420
Sometimes things look disgusting
but taste delicious.

72
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,100
Like coconuts -
a coconut is very yummy,

73
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,220
but it looks like a tiny old man's
head with hardly any hair.

74
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,340
The problem was
we needed to find someone

75
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,180
who didn't mind eating something
that looked disgusting.

76
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,560
Which, actually,
wasn't so much of a problem.

77
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,660
Sure, I'll eat a piece.

78
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:49,980
Yes!

79
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,020
But I want my dollar first.
What?

80
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,780
It says a dollar a piece.

81
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,340
No, you pay them. It's a cake stall.

82
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:02,180
You give us a dollar. Why would
I give you a dollar for that?

83
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,580
Because you'll be helping
the homeless puppies.

84
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:09,420
Or else they'll have to sleep
in a gutter. In the rain. In winter.

85
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,960
Little freezing puppies
in a gutter.

86
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,260
I'm pretty sure the puppies weren't
actually in the gutter in the rain,

87
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,540
but I had to admire
Melanie's sales technique.

88
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,180
There was no way Rory could refuse.

89
00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:24,580
Nuh. I'm not gonna eat that cake.

90
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,460
Why not? You'll eat anything!

91
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,180
That's true. He will eat anything.

92
00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:32,420
This morning, he ate my rubber.

93
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:33,980
Please?

94
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,380
Nuh. If you're not gonna pay me,
then no way.

95
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,100
I don't feel right
eating hedgehogs anyway.

96
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,860
Hedgehog is the name of cake.
It's not made out of hedgehogs.

97
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,420
Did you seriously think that?

98
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,140
No.

99
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:47,820
Maybe.

100
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,220
There are no animals in this cake,
Rory.

101
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,380
Really? Well, how come I can see
a little nose poking out?

102
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,340
That's not a little nose. That's just
a bit of chocolate that didn't melt.

103
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,900
Actually,
I'm not sure what that was.

104
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,220
I didn't put chocolate in my cake.

105
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,940
Anyway, as soon as I thought my
cake stall was a complete disaster,

106
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,700
something great happened.

107
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,540
I am so proud of you girls,

108
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,900
giving up little lunch to raise
money for such an excellent cause.

109
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:18,220
Will you buy a slice, Mrs Gonsha?
It's really yummy, Mrs Gonsha.

110
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,220
Of course I...

111
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,220
Ooh, actually,
I'm not supposed to have flour.

112
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,580
There's no flour in it.
I just quit sugar.

113
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,940
No sugar, either.
Also, I'm off eggs.

114
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,700
No eggs, or nuts, or shellfish.

115
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,660
OK. Ooh, I don't have any money on
me at the moment,

116
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,660
but why don't I make a donation
after all the cake is gone?

117
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,100
The important thing is

118
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,220
you girls are going to collect
principal's awards after this.

119
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:43,700
Yes!

120
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,740
A principal's award?

121
00:05:45,840 --> 00:05:48,580
It was so unfair.
Yeah!

122
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,060
What was unfair?

123
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:51,780
That they were getting
an award

124
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,900
for making a terrible cake
that no-one wanted to buy.

125
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,660
I could do that.
I make terrible cakes.

126
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,660
Debra-Jo already had
about 50 principal's awards.

127
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,620
I wanted a principal's award.

128
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,180
Battie! We need to set up a stall
to raise money

129
00:06:05,280 --> 00:06:07,380
for something better
than homeless puppies.

130
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,580
Can you think of anything?

131
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,500
Wasn't there an earthquake
in Adelaide? No.

132
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,980
Something happened in Adelaide.
I don't think so.

133
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,420
Brisbane?
We need something personal.

134
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:17,620
I've got it!

135
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,740
How about we raise money for my
aunty? Someone stole her lawnmower.

136
00:06:21,840 --> 00:06:24,660
It's really serious.
Her grass is really long.

137
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,140
Battie?

138
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,220
Well, um, my dad has diabetes.

139
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,300
Diabetes. What's that again?

140
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,660
It's when
you can't stop going to the toilet.

141
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:35,740
That's diarrhoea.
Same thing.

142
00:06:35,840 --> 00:06:37,220
No, it's not.

143
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,060
Diabetes is an illness where
you have high blood sugar levels

144
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,340
and have to be careful
of what you eat because...

145
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,140
You can't stop going to the toilet.
That's what I said.

146
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,020
Anyway,
it doesn't matter what it is.

147
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,060
Diabetes has the word 'die' in it.

148
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,140
Sounds pretty serious.
Die-abetes. It's perfect.

149
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:57,620
I mean, it's a perfect cause,
not a perfect disease.

150
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,580
Obviously. It's a terrible disease.

151
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,060
So just as we had decided

152
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,740
it didn't really matter
if we didn't sell any cake,

153
00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:06,980
because we were getting
a principal's award,

154
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,700
and a donation from Mrs Gonsha...

155
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,040
The boys suddenly set up a stall
next to us.

156
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:14,900
What are you doing?

157
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,740
We're raising money too.

158
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,340
Help stop Die-A-Beetez.

159
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,780
That's not how you spell diabetes

160
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,700
unless you're raising money
for endangered beetroots.

161
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,780
No, we're raising money
for Battie's dad,

162
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,300
because he can't stop
going to the toilet.

163
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,300
Well, that's not actually true...
Help stop die-a-beetez!

164
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,300
Five cents a sultana!

165
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,340
Three sultanas for 10 cents!

166
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,460
We must bring an end
to die-a-beetez!

167
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,460
I was a bit cross that the boys
had set up a stall as well,

168
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,780
but I didn't think
they'd steal many customers

169
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,740
selling Battie's old sultanas.

170
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,380
Help stop die-a-beetez!

171
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,240
Buy a slice of our super-sandwich!

172
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,040
But the super sandwich
was a different story.

173
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,140
Spicy salami, creamy cheese,

174
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:08,060
served up on a crusty Turkish
pide bread with sesame seeds!

175
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:09,540
$1 a slice!

176
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,180
Help save Battie's Dad
from die-a-beetez!

177
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,420
Everyone knows Atticus brings
the best sandwiches to school.

178
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:17,900
His mum's a really good cook

179
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,500
so his sandwiches look
like they come from a shop.

180
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,300
We couldn't believe
he was sacrificing his own sandwich

181
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,260
to raise money for a cause...
..that he couldn't even spell.

182
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,620
I suddenly realised
what this was about.

183
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,320
Atticus wanted
a principal's award too.

184
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,940
You're just doing this
to get a principal's award.

185
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,080
No, I'm not! I really care about...

186
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,700
Diabetes.
..diabetes.

187
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,020
And you're taking away
all of our customers.

188
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,420
You had no customers, so how
could we take them away from you?

189
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:53,020
Ohh! Speaking of customers,
can you move so I can serve mine?

190
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,140
The boys
were playing against the rules.

191
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,420
Atticus's sandwich
was not gluten free,

192
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,420
or lactose free,
or sesame seed free...

193
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:00,980
So it was absolutely delicious

194
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,140
and the boys were going to make
a lot more money than we were.

195
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,340
What if that meant that they were
given two principal's awards?

196
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,340
I told Atticus that he wasn't
allowed to sell his own lunch

197
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:11,860
and that he had to stop.

198
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,440
And when that didn't work,
we took the sandwich.

199
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,060
Hey!

200
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,500
I could not believe
the girls had stolen my sandwich.

201
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,660
I took after Tamara.
Rory went after Debra-Jo.

202
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:27,400
It was so much fun. I love
raising money for a good cause.

203
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,340
I'm the fastest person in Grade 5,
so Atticus couldn't catch me.

204
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,700
I'm the slowest person in Grade 5,
so Rory could easily catch me.

205
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,600
Luckily, she's also
the smartest person in Grade 5.

206
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,180
OK, fine. I'm it.

207
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:51,700
What?

208
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,980
I'm it. My turn to chase you.

209
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:55,620
I don't think we're...

210
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,020
We're playing tiggy, silly.
Super sandwich tiggy.

211
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,420
So give me the sandwich.

212
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,100
No, I've still got the sandwich
for three more goes, remember?

213
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,200
We've played this before.

214
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,400
Can't catch me.

215
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,620
Super...sandwich...tiggy.

216
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,300
It sounded so real.

217
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,260
Are you sure
we haven't played it before?

218
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,580
I couldn't catch Tamara,
Rory let Debra-Jo go,

219
00:10:21,680 --> 00:10:24,220
we were never going
to sell our sandwich.

220
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,960
WE were never going
to sell our sandwich.

221
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:33,220
Come get your...delicious
super sandwich.

222
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:34,860
Save the puppies!

223
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,220
Get your super salami sandwich
with creamy cheese and crusty bread!

224
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,060
Guys, I don't think we should be
selling Atticus's lunch.

225
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:47,140
Melanie, what about the puppies in
the gutter? In the rain? In winter?

226
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,180
Still, it's Atticus's lunch.

227
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,700
Yeah, that's my lunch!
That we're selling.

228
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,340
Fine! Then we'll sell your cake!

229
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,660
Battie! Catch!

230
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,060
I probably should have thought
that through a little more.

231
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,640
I'm not a great catcher.

232
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:04,900
My cake!

233
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:09,540
I actually really enjoyed
Melanie's ginger hedgehog slice.

234
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:15,400
It wasn't overly sweet.
Almost a savoury kind of dessert.

235
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,740
It was a very yummy cake, Melanie.
Thank you, Battie.

236
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,100
I'm sorry to hear
about the homeless puppies.

237
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,680
I'm sorry to hear
about your dad's diabetes.

238
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,660
You wrecked our cake.
You wrecked our sandwich!

239
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,420
Try selling this now!

240
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,660
Try selling this now!
Ohh!

241
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:38,220
Yeah, really should have thought
that through a little more.

242
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,660
What is going on?

243
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,260
They didn't care about raising money
for Melanie's puppies!

244
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,700
They didn't care about Battie's dad.

245
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,340
Can you honestly tell me this mess
has anything to do with fundraising?

246
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,340
I honestly couldn't tell her that.

247
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,060
I honestly couldn't tell her that,

248
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,180
because I honestly didn't
have a clue what had been going on.

249
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,300
You are going to clean this up
immediately

250
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,580
and then stay
in the classroom at lunchtime

251
00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:05,180
and write a story about
respecting food and each other.

252
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,460
And puppies?

253
00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:09,180
If you want.
And Battie's dad?

254
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,820
I don't know what that means,
but yes, if it's important.

255
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,240
Is it important?

256
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,220
So we stayed in for the whole
of lunchtime and wrote our stories.

257
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,140
Luckily, we didn't get punished.

258
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,940
That was our punishment.

259
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,540
I don't think so.

260
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,420
I didn't raise a lot of money
for the puppies. None, actually.

261
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,460
But I think I raised awareness.

262
00:12:32,560 --> 00:12:35,540
And even though Battie's dad
kept needing to go to the toilet

263
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,020
because of his diabetes,

264
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,460
he picked up the little puppies
from the gutter

265
00:12:39,560 --> 00:12:43,840
because they needed a home
as much as he needed a toilet.

266
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,500
♪ Uh-huh
Uh-huh

267
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,860
♪ Hey, whatcha doing?

268
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,980
♪ Everybody's moving
Hey, whatcha doing?

269
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,600
- ♪ It's time for Little Lunch! ♪
- Whoo!

270
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:02,940
Every year, we do a walk-a-thon

271
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,460
to raise money for
the teachers' Christmas party.

272
00:13:05,560 --> 00:13:07,260
Rory, the money is not for that.

273
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:11,140
Well, that's what Clive my neighbour
said when he refused to sponsor me.

274
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,780
It's for our school's sponsor child,
Mubutu.

275
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,180
What?

276
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,540
Oh, I wish I knew that
when I asked Clive for $50 a lap.

277
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,260
This is a map of Africa.
Mubutu is from here.

278
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:23,740
Cool.

279
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,340
Ow!

280
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,440
Sorry, Tamara.

281
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,220
I could get excited
about a skip-a-thon.

282
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,500
I could get excited by
a trampoline-a-thon.

283
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,140
I could get really excited
about a marathon.

284
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,900
But what's exciting
about a walk-a-thon?

285
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,820
And the person who breaks
last year's record

286
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,520
will get their name engraved
on this plaque.

287
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:50,860
I'll tell you what's exciting.

288
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:52,500
A plaque is exciting.

289
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,600
I can't wait for the walk-a-thon!

290
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,460
Mrs Gonsha! Mrs Gonsha!

291
00:13:57,560 --> 00:13:59,220
Will you sponsor me
for the walk-a-thon?

292
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,380
Tamara, if I sponsored
every child in the school...

293
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,420
Then Mubutu's village
would have enough running water

294
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:04,980
for the whole year.

295
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,260
Oh. Alright.

296
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,620
Is the engraving on the plaque
in gold?

297
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,460
I asked both of my parents
to sponsor me this year.

298
00:14:12,560 --> 00:14:15,900
They really like competing too -
over who gives me more money.

299
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,900
Which is great for Mubutu
and his village.

300
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,660
I think it's great our school
has a sponsor child,

301
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,940
but I wish we could do
a read-a-thon instead.

302
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,900
What does walking laps around
the school have to do with Mubutu?

303
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,540
What does reading books
have to do with Mubutu?

304
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,160
Mubutu reads.
Mubutu walks.

305
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:33,740
He's nitpicking.

306
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,780
I was excited about the walk-a-thon

307
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,740
because Mrs Gonsha said
when we send the money to Mubutu,

308
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,580
we're going to send a painting
of Africa, and she picked mine!

309
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,720
That was before someone moved it,
or most probably stole it.

310
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,540
Except who would steal a painting

311
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,420
that's a present
for our sponsor child?

312
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:54,980
I didn't steal it.

313
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:56,900
I borrowed it, so I could copy it,

314
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,420
because my painting of Africa
looked like a carrot.

315
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,920
Should you be doing it in the dirt?

316
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,120
Africa has a lot of dirt.

317
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:07,740
Because one section
of the walk-a-thon

318
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,420
is outside of school grounds,

319
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:10,980
we have to walk with a buddy.

320
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,120
Choosing a buddy can be tricky.

321
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,620
Last year, Melanie was my buddy.

322
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,380
But because I can walk
professionally,

323
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,580
like they do in the Olympics,
she struggled to keep up.

324
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,300
She tripped and grazed her knee.

325
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,540
Have you seen that clip
from an old Olympics

326
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,300
where a runner falls over
and instead of racing past,

327
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,340
the other runner stops
and helps them up?

328
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,460
Well, Tamara didn't do that.

329
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:35,540
Ow...

330
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:36,900
No!

331
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:41,500
Well, I know that sounds bad
but I thought if I won - if WE won -

332
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,340
the... the thrill of victory

333
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,540
would make Melanie forget
all about her grazed knee.

334
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,620
There was no victory.

335
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,400
We were disqualified because buddies
have to finish at the same time.

336
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,180
Me and Rory were buddies last year
and got in trouble too.

337
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:56,660
Rory and I.

338
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,640
What are you talking about?
You've never been buddies with Rory.

339
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,060
I did not get in trouble
at last year's walk-a-thon.

340
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,540
You collected your sponsorship money
before the walk-a-thon.

341
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,180
Oh, that's right.

342
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,780
I got in massive trouble
at last year's walk-a-thon.

343
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,140
My grandpa offered me the money
early so he wouldn't forget.

344
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:21,540
Last year, he forgot the dentist,
his tax return and Christmas,

345
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,020
so it was fair enough.

346
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:27,460
But instead of putting the money
aside for Mubutu's community,

347
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,380
Rory spent it on soft drink.

348
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,000
Which he drank
just before the walk-a-thon.

349
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,100
I can't wait for the walk-a-thon!
I can't wait for the walk-a-thon!

350
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,380
I can't wait for the walk-a-thon!
Can you wait for the walk-a-thon?

351
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,480
Whoa, I'm spinning.

352
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,420
Cool!

353
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:50,420
Mrs Gonsha didn't realise Rory
had spent his sponsorship money

354
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,300
until after the walk-a-thon.

355
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,340
Yeah, when you told her.

356
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:55,980
For the good of the walk-a-thon.

357
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,660
We got disqualified.
Because you cheated.

358
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,300
I didn't spent my sponsorship money
on a soft drink.

359
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:02,780
But you let it happen.

360
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,380
I didn't mean to cheat.

361
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,100
Rory's not a cheater.

362
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,020
But he's not a thinker, either.

363
00:17:08,120 --> 00:17:11,980
I was trying to raise more money
because it was a really good cause.

364
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,340
You thought it was
for the teachers' Christmas party.

365
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,980
Which is a really good cause.

366
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,860
I thought if I spent a little bit
of the money on red soft drink -

367
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,700
which makes me go crazy -

368
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,460
it'd make me go super fast,
do more laps

369
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,740
and get a lot more money in the end.

370
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,140
You'd already got your money
before you started.

371
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,520
Like you said, I'm not a thinker.

372
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,980
Rory, you're messing up my borders!

373
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,840
Why do I keep making Africa
look like a carrot?

374
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,600
Anyway, I wasn't the only one
who didn't finish.

375
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,060
I got bitten by a dog.

376
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,580
The dog didn't bite Battie,
it snarled at him.

377
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,620
The dog didn't snarl at Battie,
it looked at him funny.

378
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,460
Through a fence.
On the other side of the road.

379
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,420
Maybe the dog didn't bite me,
but it could have.

380
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,260
No, it couldn't have.
It was nowhere near you.

381
00:18:14,360 --> 00:18:16,860
Can you get off Tanzania, please?

382
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,620
Who's Tanzania?

383
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:24,380
If you're talking about that new girl
in Grade 4, I think her name's Tania.

384
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,420
The only reason I agreed
to do the walk-a-thon again

385
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,300
is because Mrs Gonsha said
I could wear my Stretcho outfit.

386
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,920
Mrs Gonsha said to make sure...

387
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:35,540
What's wrong with this picture?

388
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,060
I don't know.

389
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,920
Did you pass me
all the flags upside down?

390
00:18:42,360 --> 00:18:44,300
Ohhh!

391
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,740
Anyway, this year
Mrs Gonsha said to make sure

392
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,180
we had all chosen
our perfect walking buddies.

393
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,140
Which Tamara took super seriously,

394
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,180
because she wanted her name
on that plaque.

395
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,020
She wanted so much
to find the perfect buddy

396
00:18:56,120 --> 00:18:58,780
that she decided to interview.

397
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,140
So I'm looking at interviewing
walk-a-thon buddies today.

398
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,340
Anyone can apply, except people
who I've been buddies with before.

399
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,180
Tamara and I have been friends
since we were three

400
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,500
and I didn't even get to
have an interview.

401
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,580
I'll be available at little lunch.

402
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:17,400
I knew no-one would apply
to be her stupid buddy anyway.

403
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,680
I'm here to talk about
being buddies.

404
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,780
My Dad says Rory and me are friends

405
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,620
because my stability
balances out his impulsiveness.

406
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,920
But after Rory got us disqualified
last year...

407
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,500
..I think my Dad might be wrong.

408
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,640
OK, show me your style.

409
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,720
How about corners?

410
00:19:43,120 --> 00:19:45,140
How often do you trip over?
Never.

411
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:46,740
You're hired.
Hang on.

412
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:48,620
I had a question of my own.

413
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,500
What will we talk about?
It's a long walk.

414
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,780
I want to do a lot of laps.
OK.

415
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,420
Gymnastics, horses,

416
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,540
your favourite boy band...

417
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,800
Hey, Rory, want to be buddies again?

418
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,460
I know Rory can be very...

419
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,660
Naughty.
..unpredictable.

420
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,580
But at least he never wants to
talk about which boy band he likes.

421
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:18,340
But if you had to say which one
you liked, who would you say?

422
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,220
Help me!

423
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:24,580
I think Debra-Jo and Battie might've
been scared to ask to be my buddy,

424
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,260
so I had to go to them.

425
00:20:26,360 --> 00:20:27,940
I didn't know which one to pick.

426
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:31,060
I tried to remember the last time
I saw them competing in something.

427
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,620
Spell 'sidetracked'.

428
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:39,040
S-I-D-E...

429
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,500
Look at the pattern
the rain's made on the window.

430
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:48,140
S-I-D-E-T-R-A-C-K-E-D.

431
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:49,620
Sidetracked.

432
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,780
Sorry, Battie, you're out.
Out of what?

433
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,620
Still, I knew Battie would be
a faster walker than Debra-Jo.

434
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,140
Hey, Battie!

435
00:20:58,240 --> 00:20:59,380
Mmm?

436
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,960
Did you hear what I said about
the walk-a-thon? About a buddy?

437
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,080
How I was looking for a partner?

438
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,740
He only needed to walk, not talk.

439
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,380
Will you be my walk-a-thon buddy
or not?

440
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,900
Ah, I can't. Sorry, Tamara.

441
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,580
After the dog-bite incident.

442
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,220
The dog-looking-at-you incident.

443
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,460
I will be walking with
Mrs Gonsha this year.

444
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,460
You get to walk with a teacher?
Can I be your buddy?

445
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,620
Why would anyone want to
walk with Mrs Gonsha?

446
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,620
You can't buy that sort of
one-on-one time with an educator.

447
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,580
Yes, you can, if you have a tutor.

448
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:37,620
Exactly. You would normally pay.

449
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,940
Did you want Mrs Gonsha
to tutor you?

450
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,140
I don't think Mrs Gonsha
would charge me to walk with her.

451
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,000
My cousin Sam, who's in Year 9,
has a tutor.

452
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,380
Good story, thanks.

453
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,820
Battie didn't
want to be my buddy.

454
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,420
Neither did Debra-Jo.

455
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,680
Atticus was back with Rory.
The whole class had paired up.

456
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,100
Almost the whole class.

457
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:06,560
I knew Melanie was mad with me, so I
had to approach this really gently.

458
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,420
Hey, do you want to
be buddies again?

459
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:10,940
Awesome! See ya later!

460
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,340
Tamara and I have been friends
since we were three,

461
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,260
so I knew how to handle this.

462
00:22:15,360 --> 00:22:17,180
Sorry, I've already got a buddy.
Who?

463
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,600
Actually, I did not know
how to handle this.

464
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,660
Um... that new kid in Grade 4.

465
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,500
Tiffany?

466
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,340
Her name's Tania.
Fine!

467
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,700
I don't have a buddy,
but I'm not being yours

468
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,660
after I didn't even
get an interview.

469
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:36,500
OK, OK, I'm sorry I was mean!

470
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,600
Please be my buddy!

471
00:22:39,360 --> 00:22:41,060
Of course I said yes.

472
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,260
But I knew Tamara
would want to go fast,

473
00:22:43,360 --> 00:22:45,940
and I knew that would
probably mean I would trip over,

474
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,180
so I had to come prepared this time.

475
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,020
I had knee pads and shin pads.

476
00:22:50,120 --> 00:22:53,740
But unfortunately they didn't
help me when I twisted my ankle.

477
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,060
Have you seen that old Olympics
clip where a runner falls over,

478
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:00,540
and instead of racing ahead,

479
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,540
the other runner stops
and helps them up?

480
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,000
It was exactly like that.

481
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,380
We can still win this.

482
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,700
Except Melanie was dressed
for a roller derby.

483
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,300
Even with my twisted ankle,
I pushed on.

484
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,260
Tamara and I broke a record

485
00:23:14,360 --> 00:23:16,940
for the amount of money raised
for Mubutu's community.

486
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:18,420
Yes!

487
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,400
Oh! Mrs Gonsha,
when do you engrave the plaque?

488
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,580
We raised a lot of money,

489
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,380
and personally,
it was my favourite walk-a-thon ever.

490
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,900
Mrs Gonsha loved hearing about
my favourite craft hobbies

491
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,740
in alphabetical order.

492
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,340
So, M is for 'mosaic', which I love.

493
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:41,580
N is for 'needlepoint', which is
kind of like embroidery, and...

494
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,460
It was a real shame
Mrs Gonsha got a stitch.

495
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,220
You honestly think Mrs Gonsha
got a stitch?

496
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,360
Why else would she stop
walking with me?

497
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,600
Do you think Battie was annoying her?

498
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,740
Battie had his best
walk-a-thon, too.

499
00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:00,800
Maybe I felt brave because I was
wearing my Stretcho outfit, but...

500
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:03,180
..I patted the dog.

501
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:04,940
He waved to the dog.

502
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,760
From the other side of the road.

503
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,080
Me and Atticus had a great day too.

504
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:18,980
Rory! Walking!

505
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,080
Sorry.

506
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,180
Rory! Walking!

507
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,280
Yep. Sorry.

508
00:24:28,360 --> 00:24:30,300
It turns out...
Rory!

509
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,580
..the red soft drink wasn't really
why Rory went crazy last year.

510
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,420
He went crazy because he's Rory.

511
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,420
And he really loves walk-a-thons.

512
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:40,900
I love run-a-thons.

513
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,540
Walk-a-thons.
What?

514
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,340
Rory! Why did you take
my Africa painting?

515
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,340
Because yours is so good,
and mine looks like a carrot.

516
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,820
I'm sorry. I am going to put it back.

517
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,420
You got dirt on it.

518
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,220
Uh...

519
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,020
I like it. Africa has lots of dirt.

520
00:24:58,120 --> 00:25:00,180
I'm going to hang it back up now,
though.

521
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,460
Can you tell Mrs Gonsha
we both did it?

522
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,420
I'm going to get a good mark.

523
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,780
I'm gonna get a good mark!
