(bright music)
- [Narrator] "Finny the Shark." (giggling)
(somber music)
- Hmm, the weather's still looks pretty terrible, class.
I don't think we'll be able to go see
the town's theater group put on that outdoor play.
(class groaning)
But never fear,
we'll put on our own play!
(class clamoring)
- Yes, yes, yes. - So exciting!
- You can spend the afternoon working on it
and then all invite Ms. Cousteau's class
to come and watch at the end of the day.
I was thinking you could do
"Goldifish and the Three Whales"
or "The Sea Turtle and the Hare."
Now I'm going to go talk to Ms. Cousteau.
While I'm gone I want you to decide
which play you want to perform.
- Well, I think we could do
"The Sea Turtle and the Hare."
Myrtle, you could play the sea turtle.
- Um, doesn't the sea turtle have to sing and dance?
I don't know.
- Let's do Goldifish!
She has yellow hair and I have yellow, well, everything!
(class disagreeing)
- Hey, why don't we just make up our own play?
- Oh, that's perfect.
What should our new play be about?
- [All] Hmm.
- Hey, why does Mr. Magellan have that treasure map?
- Ooh, maybe he's a brave explorer.
He does have that telescope.
- Do you guys ever wonder
what Mr. Magellan does when he's not teaching us?
- Hey, that's a great idea, Myrtle.
We'll do a play about what Mr. Magellan does
when he's not teaching us.
(class cheering)
- That's a great idea!
- Ms. Cousteau's all set.
Which play did you decide to perform?
"Goldifish and the Three Whales"
or "The Sea Turtle and the Hare?"
- Neither.
- Neither?
But I just told Ms. Cousteau
her class was going to get to see a play.
- There'll still be a play, but it's not one of those.
We're making up a new play.
- A new play?
What's it gonna be about?
- Oh, you're going to love it!
It's- - A surprise!
Right, everyone?
- A surprise?
Oh, I love surprises!
I can't wait to see it!
- Yeah, us too.
So what is our play gonna be about?
- It will be an epic adventure story
all about Mr. Magellan.
- It all starts when he finds
a treasure map.
- And a telescope.
- Ooh, a treasure hunt!
But what's the treasure he's looking for?
- He's looking for...
- A book!
A book that he needs to save the world!
Mr. Magellan, can we borrow that book?
- Well, actually, I'm just- - Thank you.
- Oh,
that's okay,
I'll just pop by the library and get another book.
(playful music)
- Okay, so in our play
the treasure map leads to the brave-
- And dashing.
- And dashing adventurer Mr. Magellan to a giant-
- Rubber ducky.
(laughing)
- No, not a rubber ducky, Shelly.
It should be a volcano.
- Aw, but the rubber duckies.
- No, it's a volcano, that's much more adventure-y.
And the volcano erupts!
- It erupts and a bunch of robots fly out of it.
(students laughing)
- And dinosaurs!
- Then Mr. Magellan rescues a wizard from a dragon.
- And a spaceship flies down
and an alien helps him save the wizard.
- And dinosaurs!
(students laughing) - That's funny.
- No, no, no!
That's not how our place should go at all.
I think Wondershark should be the one helping Mr. Magellan.
I'm gonna get all this stuff we need.
- But Finny, we're supposed to be working together.
- Hey, what are you doing over there?
- We're working on our show together.
- But I'm working on our show over here.
I just got everything we need,
the lava, the Wondershark costume.
- What about the rubber duckies and the robots?
- Those aren't in our show.
- But we want them in our show.
- But they're wrong.
I wanna do the show my way.
Come on.
Fine, I can do everything by myself.
(students laughing)
- How's it going, kids?
Oh, Ms. Cousteau's class'll be here any minute.
(Finny sighing)
- Guys,
I just came over to say, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I didn't listen to your ideas.
I shouldn't have taken over.
This was supposed to be our play and I've ruined it.
- We could use someone
to hold up the boulder in the second act.
- The boulder?
- Yep, it's Oscar's idea.
Just hold it up when you hear us sing about it.
- I'll help you, we'll do it together.
- I only read 10 books this month.
- Uh oh, guys, we forgot
something super duper humongously important!
Who's gonna play Mr. Magellan?
(Finny gasping) - Oh my goodness.
- I don't know the lines.
- Me neither.
- I'll give it a go.
- Are you sure, Myrtle?
There's lots of singing and dancing.
- Myrtle's got this.
- Hey kids, it's showtime.
Good luck.
I can't wait to see what the play's about.
(bright music)

I'm a part time teacher and a full time adventurer.

- Oh yeah, definitely.
- Well I hate to break it to you.
But the only part that was true
is the thing about the robots.
- I knew it. (laughing)
(bell ringing)
- All righty, looks like the storm has passed, everyone.
I'll see you all tomorrow.
