This reminds me of the time I lost a tiger.
What a fiasco that was!
Better check on the elephant.
Still here!
(elephant snorting) You sit tight and we'll be at the circus in no time!
(elephant trumpeting) - Hi!
I'm Peg and this is Cat and this is Big Dog.
- Ruff!
- And we've got... junk!
- So much junk!
- There's all kinds of stuff you can do with junk.
Like... Make a new friend out of a tennis ball.
(low voice): Hello, everybody!
- Or we could do something less creepy... and make a seesaw.
- Ruff!
- Good idea!
- I see'd but I can't saw!
- That's 'cause I'm heavier than you.
To balance, we need the same amount of weight on each side.
- Mmm?
- That's right, Big Dog!
We can put more weight on Cat's side, till... - Goin' down... - We're balanced!
(bird chirping) - Woohoo!
- Whoa-ho!
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- Your turn, Big Dog.
- WHOA!
- Take a brick, Cat.
Or three.
The seesaw still isn't balanced.
- Big Dog's weight is a BIG PROBLEM!
(Big Dog howls.)
- But... if I add my weight to Cat and the bricks, we're balanced!
(yelling) OK, so next, let's make beds out of shoeboxes.
- Shoebox bed.
So cozy!
- What do you think, Big Dog?
- Drool means he likes it!
- Cat's the length of one shoebox, and I'm the length of two.
Now you make a bed, Big Dog.
(Big Dog howls.)
All three boxes aren't long enough for Big Dog.
He needs one, two more!
- Big Dog's length is a BIG PROBLEM.
A long problem, really.
- This crate is as long as two shoeboxes.
If we use three boxes and one crate, that's the same as three, four, five shoeboxes.
A big bed for Big Dog!
- You're not too long for a bed, Big Dog!
You're just the right-- Oh.
Although maybe a teensy bit too heavy.
(Big Dog howls.)
- But you're not too big for... a play!
We can act out... Little Red Riding Hood!
(barking) - Don't have to ask me twice!
Oh.
Big Dog wants to be Little Red Riding Hood, whom, they say, is little.
- The costume's too small for you.
See?
Cat's the shortest, so he'll play Little Red Riding Hood.
And when you stand on two legs, you're the tallest.
So you'll play the Big Bad Wolf.
- What's the matter, Big Dog?
Tired of being so long?
So heavy?
So tall?
(Big Dog sighs.)
You've got a big problem.
- Ruff!

- La, la-la, la-la, la-la.
Going to Grandma's house.
Sure hope I don't run into any wolves.
Especially ones that are big and bad.
Whoa.
You're a REALLY Big Bad Wolf.
My, what big eyes you have.
And what a long nose.
HELP!
(elephant trumpeting) Peg!
PEG!
I know I'm a cat, and I tend to overreact.
Sometimes when you sneeze, I freak out.
But seriously!
Big Dog grew into a really, really big Bad Wolf!
- If Big Dog seemed bigger when he was playing the Big Bad Wolf, that's just good acting.
- Uh, OK. - Do the scene again and this time I'll watch.
- Going to Grandma's house.
Hope I don't run into any Big Bad Wolves.
Especially the really, really big kind.
AH!
- That's not a big wolf, Cat.
- It's just a mouse.
- Then where's Big Dog?
- Being chased by an elephant... - Who's being chased by a mouse!
- CHASE SCENE!
(panting and barking) Quick, up in the tree!
That always works!
(screaming) (elephant trumpeting) - I think we're safe in here.
- This garage is smaller than I remember.
And it smells a lot more like a circus.
(screaming and barking) - Squeak!
Squeak!
- The mouse is floating away!
- Squeak!
- I can't reach him.
Even with Cat on my head!
- Squeak!
- This is a... - REALLY BIG PROBLEM!
- Squeak!
- Big Dog, are you tall enough to reach the mouse?
(barking) - He's embarrassed to show how tall he is.
- Squeak!
Squeak!
- Poor mouse!
- Big Dog's bigness saved the mouse!
- Mwah!
- Ruff!
- Now where's the-- (elephant trumpeting) - Elephant?!
(elephant trumpeting) - That's not good.
(grunting) - The elephant is stuck in the ground!
- Another REALLY BIG PROBLEM!
- We can use the seesaw!
- Weee!
- To get the elephant free.
- Oh, right.
- Elephant, put your legs onto this side of the seesaw.
Then we'll lift you out by pushing the other side down.
Cat!
- Mouse!
- Squeak!
- Ramone?
- Hey, Peg!
Trying to get an elephant out of the ground?
- You guessed it!
- Then let's make our side heavier with some of this junk.
(elephant trumpeting) - We need more weight!
- Big Dog?
(Big Dog barks.)
- He's embarrassed about how heavy he is.
(elephant trumpeting) - The elephant and I are TOTALLY FREAKING OUT!
(horn and whistle sounds) Cat's right.
We should count backwards from five to calm down.
Five... four... three... two... one!
- She's sinking deeper!
♪♪♪ - Big Dog?
Big Dog!
- Alright, Big Dog!
- Nice jump!
- You saved the elephant!

Little Red Riding Hood was scared of the Wolf, just like we were scared of the elephant, and the elephant was scared of the mouse.
- Everybody's scared of somebody.

And today we climbed the beanstalk to visit the Giants and meet their brand new... - Giant baby!
- Shhh!
- She's sleeping.
(baby gurgling) - Aww... - She's humongous!
- She's adorable!
- She's... driving us crazy!
- Huh?
- We love our little munchkin more than anything.
- But with all the feeding... - ...and the burping... - ...and the diaper-ing... - We could really use a break.
- Just a quick walk around the cloud.
- So we called you guys to come over and babysit.
- No problem, Giants!
Leave it to us!
- And by "it," we mean "her."
- Great!
- If you need us for any reason, just call our beeper.
- Beeper?
- You can't be too careful, Peg.
- Push a few buttons on the phone, the beeper will vibrate, and we'll come right home.
- What number do we call?
- The number's in the cupboard.
- It's locked!
(chuckling) - Baby-proofed.
- You can't be too careful, Cat.
- To open the lock, you need to know the combination.
- Combi-whata?
- Numbers that open the lock.
- "One, two, three."
So, that's the combination?
- Not quite.
- To keep it secret, we didn't write down the real combination.
- You can't be too careful, Peg.
- To get the actual combination, add two to each of these numbers.
- Wha?
- To add two to each number, you move two spaces on the number line, like this.
One, two.
So if we need to open the lock, we'll add two to each of these numbers and open the cupboard.
- Where you'll find another piece of paper with numbers.
- The numbers we press on the phone... - To set off your beeper!
- Not quite.
- Ugh!
- We didn't write down the real numbers.
- Can't be too careful, right?
- Or can you?
- To get the real numbers to press, take that piece of paper in the cupboard, and subtract two from each of the numbers.
- Subtract?
Like, take away?
- Yep.
To subtract two from a number, you move two spaces this way on the number line.
One, two.
- Simple, right?
- Ugh.
It's making my brain melt.
- It is kinda complicated.
I'm not so sure-- - Oh, please, please, please stay!

Nowhere to hide!

The first number is one.
So we add two.
One, two.
One plus two is three!
Next is two.
Two plus one, two is four!
The last number is three.
Three plus one, two more is five!

To subtract two from four, start at four and go back two spaces.
Four, take away one, two is two!

Five take away one, two is three!
