Speaker 1 (00:00):
Oh, then if the teams are tied when the fourth
quarter ends, they go into what's called overtime. They'll play
as many overtimes as they have to until there's a winner.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
WHOA, that sounds hard. Don't the players ever get tired?
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Of course they do.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
That's part of what makes it so awesome. The team
that wants the most is usually the one that wins.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
Good thing.
Speaker 5 (00:28):
Viv's here to tell you more about basketball, Umi, She's.
Speaker 6 (00:31):
Way better at it than I am, and she knows
more about it too.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Oh, come on, Aria, you're great at basketball.
Speaker 5 (00:38):
Thanks, but we both know I wouldn't be able to
beat you now. Soccer, on the other.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Hand, Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever, miss Leeds scorer. We'll see
what happens next season.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Man, I can't wait to take sports back to my
whole world and have friends like you to play with me.
Speaker 6 (00:55):
You're gonna have so much fun. Not much longer. No, right,
you said you wanted to intense sports.
Speaker 5 (01:01):
You've learned soccer, baseball, basketball, football, and hot dog eating,
So five left to go.
Speaker 6 (01:10):
Do you know what you want to learn next? Hopefully
this one's actually a sport, definitely.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
It's called hooky.
Speaker 6 (01:17):
Hooky like staying out of school.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Yeah, that's not a sport either, Roomy.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Well, no, it has to be. There were all these
people with blades of metals strapped to their shoes, and
they were using them to glide across a gigantic piece
of ice where they all chase a little black circle.
They even had big sticks they were using to whack
the circle.
Speaker 6 (01:39):
You're thinking what I'm thinking.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Definitely time some hockey.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
So so, why is it called hockey? Hooky? Sounds like
a way cooler name.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
Oh see, if we can get the name changed. But first,
we've got to figure out a good way to get
you in the game.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Hey, Viv Viv viv you there.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Sorry, just still trying to get used to being invisible
over here.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
This is crazy.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
Yeah, I know, it's pretty cool. You'll get used to it.
We got to figure out a good way to get
umi in the game.
Speaker 6 (02:21):
Got any ideas.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
I guess maybe we could well, Oh, hey, the penalty box.
Speaker 6 (02:28):
Oh yeah, that's a great idea.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Hey, I don't really like the sound of that. Hey,
please don't put me in the penalty box. I promise
not to sneak out and eat all the food in
a refrigerator anymore.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
The penalty box isn't going to hurt Wait, what about
our refrigerator?
Speaker 7 (02:45):
Later?
Speaker 8 (02:45):
Are you?
Speaker 6 (02:46):
We need to act quick.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
It's already the third period. Listen to see that small
room down there on the ice. If a player does
something he's not supposed to do, he might get sent
to that box for a timeout. When that happens, you
need to be inside the box ready to put him
to sleep, so you can turn him invisible, then change
into him.
Speaker 6 (03:04):
Then when the timeout ends.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
You can get on the ice of Blaye.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Yes, all right, all right, let's do this.
Speaker 6 (03:10):
Wait, won't everyone see that happen? We can't let them
know about Umi. Leave that to me.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
I've got a great idea.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Still that sure? Why they call us a penalty box?
Doesn't look very scary? What's so bad about being in here?
Speaker 4 (03:35):
Oh? I saw that Brady.
Speaker 6 (03:37):
That's gonna be two minutes for cross chicken.
Speaker 8 (03:39):
Oh, come on, Rash, you gotta be kidding me.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
I don't want to hear it. I saw you clear
as day.
Speaker 6 (03:47):
Get in the box.
Speaker 7 (03:53):
It appears Argus Brady has been called for cross checking
ladies and gentlemen. That'll be two minutes and the penalty.
Oh freaking cross checking ref wouldn't know a penalty if
it was staring him in the face.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Oops, wrong button?
Speaker 4 (04:13):
What what are you? Hey?
Speaker 6 (04:15):
Everyone?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Look up here.
Speaker 6 (04:17):
Wayne Grimky is in the building.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Nice job, Viv, All right now, mister Brady, time for
you to go to sleep.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
Ooh, sorry about that.
Speaker 7 (04:33):
Ladies and gentlemen, we have no idea.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
How that voice used my microphone.
Speaker 7 (04:39):
We're working on it in the meantime, please accept our apologies.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
The game will not resume without delay.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
Were nice timing, Viv.
Speaker 5 (04:50):
If you hadn't distracted everyone, they definitely would have noticed
the alien in the penalty box.
Speaker 6 (04:55):
Now, let's just hope Boomy's decent at hockey.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
Poor rate. Brady times up deck on the ice.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Yes, yes, I am Brady, and I am ready for
the ice. Ow you forget how to skate while you
were in there?
Speaker 4 (05:19):
It was only two minutes.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Uh No, I can definitely skate. Oh ow whatever, ain't
got time to babysits you, Brady. Wait a second, Wait
a second, I've got an idea.
Speaker 6 (05:43):
You did so good, bib. Let's hope it pays off.
I really hope Oomie can skate.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Save some of that hope for another sport, are you?
I don't think hockey's the one to waste it on.
Speaker 6 (05:54):
What's zoonie? Oh? No? Is he doing what I think
he's doing? I think so?
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Come on, we did to turn invisible again and get
down there. I don't think this is gonna go over
too well.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
What this? Brady has removed his skates and is.
Speaker 7 (06:11):
Running around on the ice and it appears he's trying
to Yes, he has grabbed the puck with his hands
and he is running away with it.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Whoa, this ice is colder that idea, but idea, but idea.
Speaker 9 (06:31):
Oh wow, Brady catches a hard check from the Red
Bird Captain.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Body's back on his feet again and running for the net.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
I've still got the circle. You can't stop me now. Yes,
I scored. I am the best hooky player ever.
Speaker 9 (06:57):
I have never seen anything like this. Brady just ran
across the ice and threw the fuck into his own dole.
Speaker 8 (07:07):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Coach Hansen is not going to be happy about this.
And what is this?
Speaker 9 (07:13):
Two fans and climbed down into the ice and are
chasing Brady tiny.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
That's gotta be him. I'm telling you he's the alien.
Speaker 8 (07:24):
You need to come with us, mister alien. Sir, we
don't want to hurt you.
Speaker 7 (07:31):
Looks like the Redbird Captain just attempted to take that
large man out with a strong check. But wow, it
didn't work at all. I think the Redbird Captain is
down for the.
Speaker 8 (07:44):
Cow the why'd you run into me like that? You?
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Okay, man, tiny? Forget about that guy? Grab bradyst oo
are you?
Speaker 8 (07:56):
Ugh?
Speaker 2 (07:56):
You scared me. You shouldn't sneak up on people when
you're invisible. It's a rule.
Speaker 6 (08:00):
Oh I am so sorry. I scared you. Now listen quick.
Speaker 5 (08:06):
You need to get back to the penalty box as
fast as you can. You need to get right next
to the real Brady. Then disappear right as you make
him reappear. Viv's gonna cause another distraction, So be ready.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Got it?
Speaker 8 (08:18):
Hey, you get back here, Tidy, hurry up and grab him? Ah, Tidy,
what's that side on your back?
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Say it?
Speaker 8 (08:32):
Says hockey stanks. Oh boy, I think we ought to
get out of here fast.
Speaker 6 (08:43):
Can you feel your toes yet?
Speaker 8 (08:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
They're kind of tingly. Doesn't feel very good.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
That's what happens when you go barefoot on Izumi.
Speaker 6 (08:51):
It's not good for you.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Well, it was a lot easier than skating, Viv.
Speaker 5 (08:57):
We probably should have taught you how to skate before
we let you get in the game.
Speaker 6 (09:01):
Either way, that was a really.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
Close call with Blaine and Tiny. That was fast thinking
putting that sign on Tiny's back.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Viv.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Yeah, but I don't think we can keep this up forever.
Sooner or later someone's gonna catch us. Ommy, that's six
sports now.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
Are you sure that's not enough?
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Of course, it's not enough. I have to learn all
I can before I go back, and Ari and I
made a deal ten sports.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Okay, okay, just please tell me the next one will.
Speaker 6 (09:33):
Be easier, easier.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Why would it be easier? Where's the fun in that?
Oh, then if the teams are tied when the fourth
quarter ends, they go into what's called overtime. They'll play
as many overtimes as they have to until there's a winner.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
WHOA, that sounds hard. Don't the players ever get tired?
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Of course they do.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
That's part of what makes it so awesome. The team
that wants the most is usually the one that wins.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
Good thing.
Speaker 5 (00:28):
Viv's here to tell you more about basketball, Umi, She's.
Speaker 6 (00:31):
Way better at it than I am, and she knows
more about it too.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Oh, come on, Aria, you're great at basketball.
Speaker 5 (00:38):
Thanks, but we both know I wouldn't be able to
beat you now. Soccer, on the other.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
