[students snoring]

[Linda mumbling]

[chuckles] Time to wake everyone up, I reckon.

[toy winding]

[yelps]

Hey! Something's tickling me.

[yelps] Yeah. Hey!

Huh? It's a spider!

[yelps]

Hey!

[screams]

Ooh!

[all gasp]

Miss Battle-Axe.

Ooh, Sidmouth. Thank goodness you're here.

It's a spider.

It must be poisonous. I can't even see a thing.

Allow me, Boudica.

My glasses! My glasses!

You've got my glasses.

Oh, now, calm down, Boudica. I've got your glasses.

Ooh, Sidmouth. Thank you!

[all gasp]

[clears throat] Oh, dear.

Could I have my glasses back, Mr. Soggington?

Um, I trod on them.

Speak up, Sidmouth!

I trod on them, Boudica.

Ooh, I see.

I'll get them mended right away.

Thank you, Sidmouth.

Now, what was it you came in to say to the class?

Oh, yeah, I just wanted to remind everyone

that we've got the first football playoff

of the Ashton Athletic Junior Team football trials this afternoon.

[all shout] Yay!

Well, we'll be seeing about that.

Please, Miss. If we miss this playoff, we won't get a second chance.

Really, Margaret?

Well, you should have thought about that

before you started to play spider catch with your friends.

-But-- -Silence!

You're all in detention as of now.

[all] But--

My decision is final!

[all scream] No!

I can't believe we're missing the playoff.

Me too, Henry. This was gonna be my big chance.

Well, what are you gonna do about it, then?

Get lost, bogey brain! There's nothing we can do.

There's always something you can do.

Specially when it's your fault we're in detention in the first place.

Like I said, get lost, bogey brain!

Please, Miss. Henry's talking.

Thank you, Margaret.

And I'm sure it won't have escaped your attention that you are talking too.

[sarcastically] Nice one, Margaret.

That was definitely doing something.

Please, Miss. Ralph's talking too!

Thank you again, Margaret. And that's twice you've been talking now.

[chuckles] What are you gonna do now, Margaret?

Get lost, bouncy ball brain.

Just because I don't have my glasses,

it doesn't mean I can't hear you, Al.

Oops.

And, Margaret, that's number three for you.

[grunts]

[bell rings]

Not so fast! Margaret, Al, Ralph, and Henry, stay here.

The rest of you can go.

[sniggering]

Which one of you is the best football player, would you say?

[all clamoring] Me!

Thank you. Well then, you shall all stay in detention...

[gasps]

for the rest of the day.

-[all] But-- -To the science lab, now!

[timer ticking]

Hey, teacher-- Miss Battle-Axe is here.

Thank you, Mr. Soggington

I've come to tell you that Miss Oddbod has suggested

that I referee the Ashton Athletic Junior Team football trials this afternoon

while you go and get my glasses mended for me.

But... but...

So off you go, Mr. Soggington.

Oh, er, right, Miss Battle-Axe. Off I go. Yes.

She can't referee the trials. She's a girl for one thing.

And what's wrong with that, sir?

Oh, uh, nothing, Margaret.

I'm just upset about all this.

So are we, sir. We're missing it too.

Yeah, and we didn't stand on Miss Battle-Axe's glasses.

That in itself is true, Margaret.

[sobbing] Oh! What are we gonna do?

I'll tell you what we're going to do.

What are we gonna do?

We're going to do something.

[sighs] Here we go again.

Psst!

Um, you're supposed to be in detention.

We'll get into trouble if we talk to you.

Oh, don't be such a wimp!

I need you to deliver a message to Peter.

I can't deliver a message to Peter.

Yes, you can! Pull yourself together and listen.

[whispering]

We've got a message for you, Peter.

Have you? What is it?

[hesitantly] Um, it's a message from Henry.

Not interested.

But we'll get into trouble if you don't listen.

Who from?

Henry.

Still not interested.

And Margaret.

Interested now.

[whispering]

Oh! Uh... Just off to get the glasses repaired, Boudica.

Oh, thank you so much, Sidmouth.

Oh! Excuse me.

Come on then, you horrible lot. Out you go.

Thanks, worm.

I did it for Margaret.

What a worm!

They're all ready for you, Miss Lovely.

[scribbling]

Now, form a line, you horrible lot!

[all] Yeah!

[all cheering]

Go, Ashton Primary!

What are you doing here, Mr. Soggington?

Oh, uh, just came to say that your glasses are on their way.

Oh, you haven't got them with you?

Uh, no. Just came to tell you that they're, um...

polishing them right now.

Oh, thank you, Sidmouth!

Now I must get on with the job in hand.

Offside!

Oh, apologies, Boudica.

Not at all, Sidmouth.

Offside!

[both] Whatever that means.

[chuckles]

[cheering]

Coming through!

[cheering]

Yes! We won!

Whoo! We won! We won!

[chuckles]

Oh, what's that in your pocket, Sidmouth?

Oh, I do believe they're your glasses, Boudica.

My glasses were being polished in your pocket, Sidmouth?

Oh, yes! Only the best for you, Boudica.

Oh, however can I thank you.

Is that--

How about a quick tango to celebrate our win?

Oh! You're so naughty, Sidmouth.

[all grunt]

Remind me what we say to the opposition.

All together now!

[all] Na-na, na-na-na!

"Aha! You'll never foil my perfectly poisonous plan, Gross Class Zero.

And you'll never ever crack my superior secret code."

"That's what you think, Darius Drake.

We're going to push over your pompous plan

and decode your moldy-old message with our..."

[both] Cracking Code Card!

[speaking indistinctly]

And so the Spinning Jenny was invented in 1764.

Do you think old Battle-Axe is really Darius Drake?

What do you mean?

It used eight spindles to spin thread from eight rovings.

She's speaking in code, isn't she?

[chuckles]

But later they added more spindles and more rovings.

[in low voice] Hey! Give that back.

Please, Miss.

Margaret, how do I know that you're not going to tell me

the average speed of a spindle rove?

No, Miss. Please, Miss! Henry's writing notes, Miss.

[speaking incoherently]

It doesn't make any sense.

Hardly surprising, really.

Please, Miss.

What is it now, Margaret?

You need one of these, Miss.

What is this?

It's a Cracking Code Cracker.

Really?

Yes, look! You put this in here and then you turn it over,

and then you fold it in half, and then you--

Well, perhaps you'd like to tell us all what it says, Margaret.

[clears throat]

Most boring lesson in the whole wide world ever...

with bells on.

Really?

Margaret, would you kindly tell us

what 100 detention lines is in code?

With pleasure, Miss Battle-Axe.

[screams] No!

Ready. Steady.

Wait for it, lad. Do you know what you're writing?

Yes, Miss Battle-Axe's lessons are not boring with bells on

in code.

Right, lad.

Now, go!

[timer ticking]

[ticking stops]

Hmm. Not bad, lad. You did that in 33 minutes and 29 seconds.

[chuckles] Not bad at all.

Hang on. This isn't mine.

Then let this be a lesson to you.

No more code cracking, Henry.

We've got to crack this code, Henry.

I know, but it is not like anything I've ever seen before.

So, what do we do now? We've tried everything.

Time to call in the expert.

Hmm, it's not like anything I've ever seen before.

We know that already.

Do you think you can do it, Peter?

[sighs]

I'll have a go, but I might need reinforcements.

[Sam] Hmm, it's not like anything...

we've ever seen before, but we'll have a go.

[whispering]

[all] ♪ Best Boys! Best Boys! Best Boys are we! ♪

♪ Best Boys can dance! ♪

♪ Best Boys can sing! ♪

♪ Best Boys can do anything! ♪

What are you doing?

Oh, it's a little ritual we have.

[lisping] We always do it before we set off on an important mission.

Well, get a move on, will you?

We'll leave them to it, shall we?

Yeah, seriously strange, aren't they?

Too right.

Look at them. Code crackers extraordinaire

What can we do?

Come on, Ralph. You're one of the most talented kids I know.

Well, yeah, if you count being able to fart the alphabet as a talent.

Oh, I do! I do!

[farting] A.

B.

C.

[both laugh]

Hmm, those two are up to something.

Yeah, up to something.

The pigeon has definitely taken off.

Yeah! He what?

I said the pigeon has taken off.

Yeah! I've got no idea what you're talking about, Margaret.

Ugh, don't you know anything, Susan?

I am talking in code.

Yeah, I see.

No, I don't.

Oh, it goes like this. I say something in code

and you answer me back in code,

and that way, the enemy...

Yeah, the enemy...

...the enemy doesn't know what we're talking about.

[cheerfully] Yeah!

What are we talking about?

Oh!

Oh, old bogey brain is up and about.

[chuckles]

Better not let her find out about the secret code. She'll crawl all over it.

The pigeon is moving.

Yeah.

No. Still don't know what we're talking about.

What I am talking about is that it looks like they're up to something.

Yeah! What's that then?

The sandwich maker is onto it.

He what?

I don't know. But I'm gonna find out.

Ha! They're onto us.

Yeah! Woo-hoo! I understood that, Margaret.

[shrieks] Ah! They're onto us.

Oh, no! I wonder how Peter and the Best Boys are getting on.

Let's go and find out.

Hang on. If they're onto us, then we can't lead them to the code breakers.

Oh, yeah! I see what you mean, Henry.

We're going to have to set up a decoy.

[static noise and beeping]

I think we lost them.

Hmm. I think we've lost them.

How's it going?

Well, I'll be honest with you, it's hard work, Henry.

We've tried double speak and open code,

and sign/counter sign, encryption,

numeric, one part, two part, one time, and two time.

[lisping] Mono alphabetic substitution cipher.

Even idiot code.

And?

Nothing.

[farts]

Sorry, did you say something?

I said, "Okay."

[farts]

Charming.

No, that's really what I said.

Did you know that I can fart the alphabet?

Why would I want to know that?

Because that's it!

That's it what?

That's the code! Look!

[Ralph farts]

Come... to...

[farting]

Brian's...

[farting]

party...

[farting]

-tonight... at... six -[farting]

-[farting continues] -O'clock.

You did it, Ralph! You did it!

-[laughs] -Yeah, I did!

Happy birthday, Brian.

You made it!

Yeah, thanks to our farting friend here.

Cool!

[Margaret] The pigeon has landed.

What are you doing here?

And what are you talking about?

Yeah, what are you talking about?

Did someone mention a party?

Well, yes, but how did you know about it?

Yeah, how did you find out what the code said?

Money talks, my feathered friend! Money talks!

Sam!

Spotless Sam!

Don't be cross with me. I needed some new rubber gloves.

Oh, don't worry, Sam. You know what they say?

No.

The more the merrier.

I think you mean...
