so, today you'll be meeting Professor Bufo.
He makes all of Unique's gadgets and vehicles.
Wow, I can't wait to meet him.
Professor Bufo's lab
is always kept as clean as can be.
Any dirt or mess could ruin his experiments,
so before we go into the lab,
we need to go into the locker rooms
and put on clean-room suits.
I'll meet you back here
after you get into your clean-room suit.
Which locker room do you think I should go into?
The boys' room?
Or the girls' room?
I'm a boy, so I should get changed in the boy's room.
Thanks.
Welcome to my grandfather's house, Rick.
We're glad you could be here for Chinese New Year's Eve
or chú xi.
We're going to have all sorts of good food for dinner,
like fish, chicken, noodles, and oranges.
Dinner sounds great, Noyoon.
It will be once I finish cooking it.
Noyoon, will you set out the chop sticks?
Sure, Grandfather.
What are these? They're chopsticks.
We use them to eat instead of a fork.
I don't know how to eat with chopsticks.
Uh-oh, I've never had to teach someone how to use chopsticks.
(beeping)
(radar beeping)
I'm ready to go, Dotty.
You'll need to put on a cap, too, Oso.
Professor Bufo is serious about being clean in his lab.
(grunts)
Ah.
If any part of your clean room suit gets dirty,
you need to put it in the laundry bin
and then get a clean one.
Sounds like a plan.
Now we have to go in one at a time
so we can be scanned for dirt.
(Mechanical Voice) Clean.
Oops.
Well, it's not that dirty.
(Mechanical Voice) Dirty. Dirty. Dirty.
(alarm buzzes)
Uh-oh.
It's all part of the plan... more or less.
Special alert. Special Alert.
Special Agent Oso, Mr. Dos here.
It's a sticky situation.
Noyoon wants to help Rick learn to use chopsticks,
but he doesn't know how to teach Rick.
Your special assignment...

Of course we go fast.
You think I go slow? No, no, no.
Ha-ha.

Bon chance, Oso, which is good luck in French.
(grunts)
Special Agent Oso,
are you here to help me learn how to eat with chopsticks?
Yes, I am.
Paw Pilot, what's our first step?
Step one...
Press one chopstick between your middle finger and thumb.
Hmm, will you help me name
all five fingers on Rick's hand?
Thanks.
This finger is Rick's thumb. Got it.
And this is Rick's pointer finger. Great.
This is Rick's middle finger. Okay.
And this is his ring finger.
One more.
This is his pinkie.
Yeah! All right.
So we need to hold the first chopstick with the middle fingerand thumb.
Hey, I only have four fingers.
It's okay, Oso.
You're a stuffed bear.
And I'm sure you can learn how to use chopsticks.
Okay, then I think I'll use this finger as my middle finger.
Here's a tip...
Put the chopstick at the bottom of your thumb
and press it against your middle finger.
I see. It's like this.
You use your thumb to hold it in place.
Hey, I can do it, too.
Then you're ready for step two.
Hold he other chopstick between your pointer finger and thumb.
Wow, this is kind of tricky.
Here's another tip, Oso.
Try holding the chopstick with the tips of your fingers.
I think you've got it, Rick.
Oh, I see now.
Way to go.
Now for step three.
Move the chopstick with your pointer finger to grab food.
Grandfather, Special Agent Oso
is helping me teach Rick how to use chopsticks.
Wonderful.
You can practice by trying to pick up orange slices
and move them to your plates.
I got it.
-(groans) Almost. -Let me try.
Oso, I think you might be squeezing too hard.
(grunts)
Don't use those chopsticks, Oso.
They might be dirty.
We need to get you clean ones.
That reminds me.
My clean-room cap got dirty when it fell on the floor, too.
I should've put on a clean one.
(Grandfather) Everyone, dinner is almost ready.
Grandfather's right.
New Year's Eve dinner will begin in eight seconds.
(gong sounds)
-I did it. -Me, too.
One.
Assignment complete.
Can you stay for dinner, Oso?
I wish I could, but I need to get back to the Unique Gadget Lab.
Happy Chinese New Year, everyone.
-Bye, Oso. -Happy Chinese New Year.
Thanks to Noyoon and Rick,
I know that if my clean-room cap gets dirty,
I need to get a clean one.
(Mechanical Voice) Clean.
Yes! I did it.
Hey there, Oso.
Glad to see you made it into Professor Bufo's lab.
Mr. Dos?
You did more than make it into Bufo's lab, Oso.
You also completed your special assignment.
I couldn't have done it without your help.

Huh? Hey, Oso.
Ciao, Buongiorno.
-Whoa, woopsie. -(alarm buzzing)
(chuckles) Little mistake.
Sorry. Un poco. Uh-oh.
Nice to meet you. Oh!
(chuckles) You know, Dotty?
I think Professor Bufo and I will get along just fine.
(laughs)
Why did we stop, Rapide?
(laughs) Really, Oso,
you do not expect me to run right into a rock, do you?
Rock? What rock?
That rock.
See? The track on the left
is closed for the winter, and the one to the right has a boulder on it.
Now, pay attention, Oso.
Your training exercise today
is emergency train track clearance.
You have to clear the boulder off the track to the right.
Sounds like a plan.
Um, how am I supposed to do that?
Don't worry, Oso.
A friend is flying in to help.
-Really? Who? -(horn honks)
It's me, Oso.
Surprise!
Thanks, Whirly.
Now, let's clear that track.
Sure thing, Oso.
Uh, which track are we clearing?
Will you help me figure out which track it is?
Great.
Is it this one on the left
or this one on the right?
It's the one on the right with the boulder on it.
Thanks. I couldn't have found it without you.
Hang on, Oso.
(grunts)
Mommy, can you come out and show me how to shoot my new basketball?
It's harder than it looks.
I'm sorry, honey, but I'm going out.
Susan will be here in a few minutes to stay with you.
I'm sure she can show you how.
She plays for her high-school team, you know.
She's really good,
and I want to shoot some baskets with her,
but I wanted to learn how before she gets here.
(beeping)
(radar beeping)
(rumbling)
Pull, Whirly! Pull!
Wow, that rock sure is stuck.
Special alert! Special alert!
(Oso) Whoa!
(laughs) Whoo! That was fun.
Whoa.
It's all part of the plan... more or less.
Special Agent Oso? Mr. Dos here.
Pete needs a fast break.
He wants to shoot baskets with his babysitter,
but he doesn't know how.
Your special assignment... help Pete learn how to shoot a basketball.

Special Agent Oso?
(grunts)
-(machine beeps) -Hi-ya, Pete.
Are you here to help me learn how to shoot my new basketball?
I sure am.
(grunts) We'll both learn how to put the ball in the hoop
as soon as I get myself out of it.
(grunts)
Whoa...
It's all part of the plan... more or less.
Paw Pilot, what's our first special step?
Step one... Face the basket.
And here's a tip.
Place one foot slightly in front of the other foot.
Sounds like a plan.
But which foot do I put in front?
If you throw with your right hand,
put your right foot in front.
If you throw with your left,
put your left foot in front.
I throw with this hand,
so I put this foot in front.
Well, I throw with this hand.
Can you help me find which foot to put in front?
Is it this one or this one?
It's this one.
All right! Thanks.
You're both ready for step two.
Hold the ball in front of you.
And here's a tip.
Hold it with your throwing hand closer to you.
Since I throw with this hand,
I hold the ball like this.
See, Oso?
Got it. Thanks, Pete.
Now hold the ball up,
but not so high that you can't see the basket.
Hmm, I can't see the basket.
Do you think I should hold the ball higher?
Or lower?
Lower.
Now I can see the basket.
Thanks for your help.
Uh, any more tips, Paw Pilot?
Yes, bend your knees slightly
so you can spring up when you shoot the ball.
Hey, look at us. We're doing it.
Then you're ready for step three.
Shoot the ball.
(grunts)
Huh? Whoa.
Hey, where'd my ball go?
Oh, it's under that bush.
I'll pull it out.
I can't quite get it.
Oso, if you can't pull it out,
try to push it out the other side.
Hey, that's a great idea.
It worked.
Say, that's what I should do in my training exercise.
I should push the boulder off the track.
Thanks, Pete.
Now for step three.
Shoot a basket.
Face the basket, one foot in front.
Raise the ball.
Hold it like this.
Bend our knees.
Here's one last tip, Oso.
Try to shoot the ball in an arc.
That's a shape like a rainbow.
Okay, Pete.
Let's give it a try.
Hurry, Oso.
Pete's babysitter's coming up the driveway.
She'll be here in six seconds.
Six.
Five.
Four.
Three.
Two.
-I did it! -One.
Assignment complete.
Great shot, Pete.
Come on, let's shoot some more.
You can use my ball.
I've got a training exercise to complete.
Thanks, Oso. Bye.
Thanks to Pete, I know how to get that rock off the track.
Don't try to pull it off, Whirly.
Push it off instead.
If you say so, Oso.
(grunting)
Come on, Whirly. You can do it.
Yes.
Outstanding, Oso.
(howls) Oustanding.
You completed your track clearance training exercise.
You did more than clear the train tracks for Rapide, Oso.
You also completed your special assignment.
I couldn't have done it without your help.
