Episode 2.
Snorkel and Max ImaginationExplorers, rocket Races.
The sun shone bright in theclear blue sky.
As Max knelt in his backyardtinkering with what looked like
an ordinary cardboard box,nearby his loyal and fluffy best
friend Snorkel, a white doodlewith a boundless imagination of

(00:23):
his own, watched intently, earsperked and tail wagging Snorkel.
Max declared with a dramaticflourish we're building a rocket
ship today.
His eyes sparkled withexcitement, the way they always
did before the start of one oftheir incredible adventures.
Snorkel barked enthusiasticallya sound of agreement,

(00:45):
encouragement and perhaps alittle impatience.
With a sweep of Max's hand, theworld around them transformed.
The lawn disappeared into aswirling black expanse of
twinkling stars, the treesbecame towering rocket gantries,
while the sound ofintergalactic chatter filled the

(01:06):
air.
They were no longer in abackyard in suburbia.
They were at the IntergalacticJunkyard Station, the ultimate
hub for aspiring space racers.
Max adjusted his imaginarygoggles, looking every bit the
determined pilot.
Ok, snorkel.
He said.
Here's the plan.

(01:27):
We have one hour to build thefastest rocket in the galaxy.
The great galactic rocket racestarts soon and victory will be
ours.
Snorkel yipped and bounded ahead, sniffing the air as if the
perfect rocket parts had a scentonly he could detect.
Together they hopped from onefloating junkyard planet to the

(01:47):
next, scavenging for thecomponents that would make their
rocket unbeatable.
On planet Scraparoo, maxdiscovered a gleaming
cone-shaped rocket nose.
Look at this, snorkel, perfectaerodynamics.
He beamed, adding it to theirgrowing pile of parts.
Meanwhile, snorkel disappearedinto a heap of metallic scraps

(02:08):
on Boltopia and re-emergedtriumphantly with a shiny set of
thrusters balanced delicatelyin his jaws.
A final stop brought them toPlanet Sparklebits, where they
unearthed the pièce derésistance a glittering fuel
core radiant with energy.
This is it, snorkel, max said,cradling the core like a

(02:31):
precious jewel.
This is how we win.
Back at the launch pad, the duogot to work, assembling their
masterpiece.
The ship was sleek andcolourful, with Snorkel's muddy
paw prints stamped proudly alongits sides.
Max painted the Imaginator oneacross its nose like a badge of
honour.
For good luck, snorkel addedhis favourite squeaky toy to the

(02:55):
control panel.
To Max it looked perfect.
To Snorkel it smelled perfect.
They were ready, but no epictale is complete.
Without a moment of doubt, justas they were securing the final
bolt, an ominous shadow loomedover them.
Commander Klang, the grizzledand cocky reigning champion of

(03:17):
the galactic rocket race,approached in his colossal ship,
the Meteor Masher.
His robotic crew snickeredmenacingly Nice ship.
Kid Clang sneered, his metallicgrin gleaming.
Too bad, it'll be eating myspace dust.
Max stood his ground, despitethe butterflies in his stomach.

(03:38):
He raised his chin.
We'll see about that, he said.
Snorkel growled in solidarity,small but mighty.
The intercom crackled and thecountdown began.
Max and Snorkel took theirpositions in the cockpit, hearts
racing with nerves andexcitement.
Five, four, three, two, oneBlast off, engines roared and

(04:05):
the racers shot into the starlitvoid.
Max and Snorkel's rocketsstreaked through space like a
comet, leaving a dazzling trailof rainbow sparkles in its wake.
They navigated asteroid fieldswith agility, dodged shooting
stars with precision and poweredthrough glowing nebulae as if
they had raced among the starsfor years.

(04:27):
The meteor masher was fast.
Commander Klang piloted it withgrim determination.
But where the meteor masher hadbrute force, the Imaginator one
had creativity.
When a massive space whalesuddenly appeared in their path,
blocking their way with itsenormous, shimmering tail,

(04:48):
commander Klang grumbled andveered off course.
But Max saw an opportunity.
Hang tight, snorkel, he shouted, gripping the controls.
The rocket veered upward andhit the whale's tail at just the
right angle, using it as acelestial ramp to soar ahead of
the competition.
Snorkel barked his excitement,ears flapping wildly from the

(05:11):
momentum.
But Commander Clang wasn't done.
He deployed magnet missiles,devious contraptions designed to
latch onto ships and slow themdown.
One missile locked onto Max andSnorkel's rocket slow them down
.
One missile locked onto Max andSnorkel's rocket, zipping
toward them with alarming speed.
Snorkel, quick, deploy thesqueaky decoy, max yelled.

(05:34):
Snorkel lunged forward, pressingthe squeaky toy on the control
panel.
The missile veered off course.
Drawn to the irresistible sound, it exploded far behind them in
a harmless display of sparks.
Max laughed, adrenalinecoursing through his veins.
Good boy, snorkel, now hold on.
We're almost there.

(05:55):
Ahead the finish line.
A shimmering ring of stardusthung suspended in space above
Planet Victory.
The meteor masher loomed behindthem, gaining ground.
Max gritted his teeth andpushed the throttle to its limit
.
The glittering fuel core hummedas it kicked into overdrive,
propelling the Imaginator Oneinto a streaking blur of light.

(06:18):
With seconds to spare, theyshot through the luminous ring,
crossing the finish line infirst place.
Cheers erupted from the crowd,confetti rained down like
shooting stars and Max andSnorkel were declared the
champions of the great galacticrocket race.

(06:39):
Commander Clang huffed andstormed off.
Defeated, max lifted Snorkelinto his arms, spinning him
around.
We did it, snorkel, we're thefastest racers in the galaxy.
Snorkel responded with aslobbery lick on Max's cheek,
tail wagging furiously.
The world around them began tofade and Max found himself back
in his backyard.

(07:00):
The cardboard box, their trustyrocket, stood proudly with a
few smudges of paint Above them.
Real stars twinkled incongratulations as they sat
together in the grass.
Well, snorkel, max said with agrin what should we explore next
