Barbie - The Earthquake
But I can't find it!
Have you looked in your room?
Yes!
It's not there!
(Slam!)
Checked the bathroom?
Yes!
I've looked everywhere!
What am I going to do?
Isabelle...
Woah, woah, woah, woah...
What's going on here?
Isabelle lost the necklace Grandma gave her
And I can't find it anywhere
Calm down, Isabelle...
But...
It will turn up
There's no need to panic
Oh...
Your Daddy's right
You're not usually this calm, Ken
I know, but we had someone come into work today
to talk to us about how it's important to be calm if you're panicking
Really?
Yes and I realised that we don't need to panic
If we just calm down, we can solve the problem without getting all anxious
That's very good advice, Ken
I'm calm, but I still don’t have my necklace
Annabelle?
Yes, Daddy?
Do you know where Isabelle's necklace is?
Yes
Huh!
Where?
I used it to dress up my doll
Thank you, Annabelle
You're welcome
Isabelle!
You didn't ask you sister?
Well I didn’t think she'd have it
Mmmm!
Thank you, Daddy
Kids...!
I don't know why they need to panic?
I'm very impressed, Ken
Thanks!
This is the new, calm Ken
Well can the calm Ken take care of Tommy and the twins
while I take Chelsea to her dentist appointment?
No problem!
Come on Chelsea, let's go
Coming...
Are you serious?
I might have to get braces?
Possibly
If they don't get better by your next check-up, the dentist said you might have to
Oh great!
Braces aren't that bad
Have you had them before?
Yes I did, actually, and it wasn't long before my teeth were nice and straight
Oh...
Daddy Daddy!
I hurt my arm!
It was an accident!
Yeah, we didn’t do it!
Tommy...
Girls...
Calm down...
Now take a deep breath...
(Deep breath)
Now, what happened?
I was jumping on the bed and I fell off
And can you move your arm?
Yes
So it just hurts a little bit?
Yeah, just a little bit
Well then there's no need to panic, is there?
I guess not...
Next time, just stay calm
Wow!
You’re good at this calm thing, Daddy
Well, yes...
I suppose I am
Anyway, no more jumping on the...
(Rumbling)
Arrrgh!
What’s happening!
Why is the ground shaking?
Oh no!
It's...
It's an earthquake!
What?
Arrrgh!
Run for your lives!
Daddy, what are you doing?
Quick take cover!
Arrrgh!
Can we come under there too?
No way!
There's no more room!
Someone help!
Arrrgh!
Woah!
Do you feel that?
I sure do!
I think...
I think it's an earthquake!
Oh no
I'll just make sure Ken and the children are alright
I've never felt an earthquake before
Hello?
Arrrgh!
Tommy, what's going on?
Daddy's hiding under the table because of the earthquake
That's your Daddy?!
Yes
I think he's a little bit scared
Arrrgh!
Somebody help me!
And how are you?
I'm fine
It's just a little bit of shaking
Arrrgh!
Alright, we'll be home soon
So much for being nice and calm...
Daddy, I think it's stopped
You're right!
It has stopped
Uggh!
Are you sure?
The house is not moving anymore
Oh...
I might just stay here a bit longer...
Well, the house is still in one piece
That's good
That shaking was so strange
We’re back every...
Just breathe, Daddy
It's going to be ok
It was just so scary
What are you doing?
Shhh!
We're trying to calm Daddy down
From that little earthquake?!
But...!
Calm down, Daddy
Breathe in...
and breathe out...
So why does an earthquake happen, Mummy?
It's...
It's when the earth's surface shakes because of movement deep down in the ground
Good girl, Chelsea
You've been listening in class
Wow!
Will it happen again?
Maybe little ones
They're called aftershocks
What?!
Aftershocks!
Chelsea's right, but you may not even feel them
You alright now, Daddy?
Thanks Tommy
Why don't you four go upstairs and make sure nothing fell down or broke
Ok
Ken?
What happened?
Ummm...
I was just worried about the children
I didn’t want them to get scared
Right...
Arrrgh!
Oh, ohhh...
What?!
What happened?!
My American Girl doll!
It fell down!
That's it?
Well it could have hurt it’s head
Oh Annabelle...
You have to learn to calm down
What?
Oh nothing...
Ken!
How was your day?
Today was a good day
We had that guy come into work again today
and he spoke more about how to stay calm
Oh right...
He said counting to ten nice and slowly can really help
So you won't get scared anymore?
No!
Or start panicking?
Not a chance!
Or hide under the table?
You'll never see me there again!
Right...
He's sitting in his chair right now!
Perfect!
Hmmm...
That's interesting...
And go!
Yippee!
Higher!
(Rumbling)
What?!
Is that...
It's an aftershock!
What?!
Oh no!
One, two, three...
four, five, six...
Arrrgh!
Save yourself!
Arrrgh!
Ken...
Arrrgh!
It's happening again!
Ken!
Yes...
That was the children jumping on the bed
He, he, he...
Mmmm!
(Snoring)
Quietly...
Ready, set, go!
(Shaking)
What?!
Oh no!
Arrrgh!
It's an aftershock!
Arrrgh!
He, he, he...
Not again...
Those three are not going to trick me again
I'll be ready for them next time
Well I told them to stop
Good!
That was not a very nice thing to do!
(Rumbling)
What?!
Children!
Stop it!
Ken, they're not here
You mean...
It's a real aftershock?!
Yes
Arrrgh!
It's stopped, Ken
Oh brother!
(Dialling)
Who are you calling?
That guy from work
I really need help...!
