1
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,655
{\an8}I got a great experiment idea!
2
00:00:29,739 --> 00:00:31,657
{\an8}You make my feet wheels.
3
00:00:31,741 --> 00:00:33,409
I won't have to walk anymore,
4
00:00:33,493 --> 00:00:34,535
I won't be late to events, and…
5
00:00:35,328 --> 00:00:37,622
Oh, no. Tell me that's not…
6
00:00:37,705 --> 00:00:40,458
Wizard Lad
and the Ruby of Zubadube!
7
00:00:40,541 --> 00:00:43,336
{\an8}It just came out,
and we can't put it down!
8
00:00:43,419 --> 00:00:45,505
{\an8}Ugh. Every time a new book comes out,
9
00:00:45,588 --> 00:00:47,131
{\an8}you guys ignore me for a week.
10
00:00:47,215 --> 00:00:49,967
{\an8}Oh, come on. Just give
Wizard Lad a chance, Johnny.
11
00:00:50,051 --> 00:00:53,262
{\an8}It's an amazing tale
of magic and mystery…
12
00:00:53,346 --> 00:00:55,765
{\an8}And it's only 400 pages.
13
00:00:56,432 --> 00:00:57,683
{\an8}OK, I just threw up a little.
14
00:00:57,767 --> 00:01:01,896
{\an8}And why waste time reading
when you could give me wheel feet?
15
00:01:01,979 --> 00:01:04,732
Reading is not a waste of time, Johnny.
16
00:01:04,816 --> 00:01:06,400
It heightens brain activity…
17
00:01:06,484 --> 00:01:08,986
And puts the reader
in the lead character's shoes
18
00:01:09,070 --> 00:01:12,115
by firing neurons
during exciting passages.
19
00:01:12,198 --> 00:01:14,242
And why don't you like
these books of wonder and magic?
20
00:01:14,325 --> 00:01:15,535
I'll tell you why.
21
00:01:15,618 --> 00:01:19,163
Once upon a time, there was
a wizard with a magic wand,
22
00:01:19,247 --> 00:01:22,291
but it still took him 400 pages
to stop a bad dude,
23
00:01:22,375 --> 00:01:25,837
even though he had a magic wand!
24
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,298
Give me a magic wand,
and the book's done in ten pages, tops.
25
00:01:32,176 --> 00:01:34,512
We've downloaded the newest
Wizard Lad adventure
26
00:01:34,595 --> 00:01:36,931
into this virtual reality sphere.
27
00:01:37,014 --> 00:01:42,395
Which will take you inside the book,
where you will become the Wizard Lad.
28
00:01:42,478 --> 00:01:43,688
And I get a wand.
29
00:01:43,771 --> 00:01:45,773
Um, are you sure this is safe?
30
00:01:45,857 --> 00:01:47,525
Well, in the last book,
31
00:01:47,608 --> 00:01:50,194
Wizard Lad exiled
his evil nemesis, Moldywart,
32
00:01:50,278 --> 00:01:51,821
to the Bowels of Zandar…
33
00:01:51,904 --> 00:01:55,992
And his best friend, Fofo,
will be there to protect him, so, yeah.
34
00:01:56,075 --> 00:01:58,119
And I'll have a magic wand.
35
00:01:58,202 --> 00:02:00,246
-So, where am I going?
36
00:02:00,329 --> 00:02:02,707
To a cursed castle or a dragon's lair?
37
00:02:02,790 --> 00:02:05,501
No. The new book takes place in school.
38
00:02:06,294 --> 00:02:09,714
School?! Wait. No. No!
I changed my mind! I don't want to go.
39
00:02:13,050 --> 00:02:16,429
OK, so I got the wand.
And ooh, I like the cool cape.
40
00:02:19,098 --> 00:02:22,268
Check that. I hate the stupid cape!
41
00:02:25,521 --> 00:02:28,399
Probably deserved that, and sorry!
42
00:02:29,108 --> 00:02:32,153
Hmm. What's the first thing
I should do with you?
43
00:02:34,238 --> 00:02:35,573
Wheel feet!
44
00:02:35,656 --> 00:02:37,074
A-nice!
45
00:02:38,701 --> 00:02:40,536
-Wizard Lad!
46
00:02:40,620 --> 00:02:41,996
Wizard Lad! Wizard Lad!
47
00:02:42,079 --> 00:02:44,540
Wizard Lad! You're back!
48
00:02:45,291 --> 00:02:48,711
And somebody's learned
a wheel feet spell while he was gone.
49
00:02:48,794 --> 00:02:51,505
Yep. And which one of you is Fofo?
50
00:02:53,507 --> 00:02:55,426
Classic Wizard Lad.
51
00:02:55,509 --> 00:02:57,094
And where have you been?
52
00:02:57,178 --> 00:03:00,348
Studying for the biggest test
of the year, I'm sure.
53
00:03:01,057 --> 00:03:04,393
Studying? We have magic wands.
54
00:03:08,356 --> 00:03:11,943
We'll just magically change
our grades after the test.
55
00:03:14,195 --> 00:03:17,740
And now, all capes, be free!
56
00:03:22,912 --> 00:03:24,997
So, where are the teachers?
57
00:03:25,081 --> 00:03:26,666
I can make them disappear too.
58
00:03:26,749 --> 00:03:30,086
They're all gathered
to discuss the evil Moldywart…
59
00:03:30,169 --> 00:03:32,588
Who has escaped the Bowels of Zandar
60
00:03:32,672 --> 00:03:35,174
and is now out for revenge.
61
00:03:35,257 --> 00:03:36,968
And who does he want revenge on?
62
00:03:37,051 --> 00:03:40,680
Well, since it was your magic
that sent him to Zandar,
63
00:03:40,763 --> 00:03:42,348
I'd say… you.
64
00:03:42,431 --> 00:03:44,976
-Come again?
65
00:03:50,231 --> 00:03:51,983
Moldywart!
66
00:03:52,066 --> 00:03:53,901
Wizard Lad!
67
00:03:53,985 --> 00:03:59,073
After what you did to me,
I cannot wait to get my revenge.
68
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,037
Yeah, I have no idea what I did to you,
cos I didn't read the book.
69
00:04:05,121 --> 00:04:08,457
But I do have a magic wand
and wheels for feet.
70
00:04:09,542 --> 00:04:12,837
So… I think I'm gonna have
some more fun now.
71
00:04:15,214 --> 00:04:16,173
Uh…
72
00:04:16,257 --> 00:04:21,804
First, I'm going to destroy you,
then find the Ruby of Zubadube
73
00:04:21,887 --> 00:04:24,598
so I can destroy this entire school!
74
00:04:24,682 --> 00:04:30,104
Then, if there's time, I'll resurrect you
so I can destroy you again.
75
00:04:30,187 --> 00:04:33,941
Dude! You're still mad about something
that happened 30 years ago?
76
00:04:34,025 --> 00:04:36,068
You're magic. Move on.
77
00:04:36,152 --> 00:04:38,571
Like I'm moving on
from this conversation,
78
00:04:38,654 --> 00:04:41,824
cos Johnny wonders what other cool stuff
I can do with this wand.
79
00:04:41,907 --> 00:04:44,410
You can battle me
in the never-ending woods
80
00:04:44,493 --> 00:04:46,829
and meet your doom!
81
00:04:47,580 --> 00:04:48,664
This might be bad.
82
00:04:54,670 --> 00:04:56,547
Um, what's going on?
83
00:04:56,630 --> 00:05:00,217
Johnny just had an explosive spike
in brain activity.
84
00:05:00,301 --> 00:05:02,636
Uh-huh, which means?
85
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,681
Well, if his brain doesn't
calm down to regular levels…
86
00:05:05,765 --> 00:05:09,435
It could… explode.
87
00:05:09,518 --> 00:05:11,145
Get him out!
88
00:05:11,228 --> 00:05:12,146
No!
89
00:05:12,229 --> 00:05:16,275
An instant drop from his heightened state
could be just as damaging.
90
00:05:16,359 --> 00:05:19,070
OK, but it's Johnny.
He can solve anything.
91
00:05:19,153 --> 00:05:20,154
Where is he in the book?
92
00:05:20,237 --> 00:05:23,991
Well, we only read up to where
Wizard Lad returns to Dumbledumb…
93
00:05:24,075 --> 00:05:26,077
And then…
94
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,496
Moldywart comes back?
95
00:05:28,579 --> 00:05:31,499
Johnny will have no chance
against his dark magic.
96
00:05:31,582 --> 00:05:33,417
What do we do?
97
00:05:35,836 --> 00:05:38,255
Uh, doggie no like this.
98
00:05:39,465 --> 00:05:42,802
OK, falling, about to crash
in dark forest and…
99
00:05:42,885 --> 00:05:44,261
Oh, wait!
100
00:05:47,389 --> 00:05:50,101
Oh, if only magic wands were real.
101
00:05:50,184 --> 00:05:51,393
Fofo!
102
00:05:52,436 --> 00:05:54,063
Oh, so you're Fofo.
103
00:05:54,146 --> 00:05:56,941
-Fofo!
-Yeah, you said that.
104
00:05:57,024 --> 00:05:58,484
Now, how do I get out of here?
105
00:05:58,818 --> 00:05:59,819
Fofo!
106
00:05:59,902 --> 00:06:03,405
Uh-huh, yeah. Now, what do I do?!
107
00:06:03,489 --> 00:06:05,741
You can start by calming down.
108
00:06:05,825 --> 00:06:07,201
Dukey!
109
00:06:07,284 --> 00:06:09,829
You're a weird dragon dog!
110
00:06:09,912 --> 00:06:11,705
Heh heh, cool, right?
111
00:06:11,789 --> 00:06:14,667
No. And Wizard Lad
seems like a wild story
112
00:06:14,750 --> 00:06:18,254
that I'll still never read,
and I wanna go home now!
113
00:06:18,337 --> 00:06:19,880
So calm down.
114
00:06:19,964 --> 00:06:24,844
You need to slow your brain activity
so Susan and Mary can extract you safely.
115
00:06:24,927 --> 00:06:27,555
Now, deep breaths, deep breaths…
116
00:06:30,266 --> 00:06:33,394
Good, just a few more, and…
117
00:06:35,521 --> 00:06:37,690
OK, we'll just start again.
118
00:06:37,773 --> 00:06:40,109
Ow!
119
00:06:40,192 --> 00:06:44,321
You will not defeat me again, Wizard Lad.
120
00:06:45,990 --> 00:06:49,368
Uh-huh, yeah. Magic-wand fight!
121
00:06:49,451 --> 00:06:51,120
Oooh… bow-woo!
122
00:06:54,874 --> 00:06:57,042
A charging-bull spell?
123
00:06:57,126 --> 00:06:59,461
That's Magic 101.
124
00:06:59,545 --> 00:07:03,007
Get ready for the advanced course.
125
00:07:06,969 --> 00:07:08,721
Whoa, that was really weird.
126
00:07:08,804 --> 00:07:13,225
You do know you can only use
a disappear spell once, right?
127
00:07:13,934 --> 00:07:17,438
I didn't know that,
cos I don't like these books!
128
00:07:18,439 --> 00:07:19,648
And now I hate them.
129
00:07:23,777 --> 00:07:25,488
Like I was saying, breathe deep!
130
00:07:25,571 --> 00:07:27,698
If you calm down, we can get you out!
131
00:07:27,781 --> 00:07:30,951
OK, well, maybe if you can fly straight,
I could calm down!
132
00:07:31,035 --> 00:07:33,287
Well, I've never had wings before!
133
00:07:36,540 --> 00:07:39,251
Yes! His brain waves are lowering.
134
00:07:39,335 --> 00:07:41,378
Quick, let's get them out!
135
00:07:43,130 --> 00:07:45,257
Now what happened?
136
00:07:48,219 --> 00:07:50,471
You are a terrible dragon!
137
00:07:50,554 --> 00:07:53,349
Well, if you would just read,
we wouldn't be in this book
138
00:07:53,432 --> 00:07:55,559
and I wouldn't have to be a dragon!
139
00:07:56,185 --> 00:07:59,063
Johnny, it's Wolfsmouth Cave!
140
00:07:59,730 --> 00:08:01,524
What? No way!
141
00:08:01,607 --> 00:08:02,983
Why do I care?
142
00:08:03,067 --> 00:08:06,779
Because it watches over
the Ruby of Zubadube.
143
00:08:09,657 --> 00:08:11,325
OK, that's cool.
144
00:08:13,035 --> 00:08:17,831
And the wizard that possesses it
gains any power he wishes.
145
00:08:17,915 --> 00:08:20,501
Like getting us out of this book!
146
00:08:23,420 --> 00:08:25,339
Whoa. Didn't see that comin'.
147
00:08:25,422 --> 00:08:27,424
I'll get the ruby, Johnny!
148
00:08:30,803 --> 00:08:31,720
Nope.
149
00:08:31,804 --> 00:08:34,640
And now it's your turn, Wizard Lad,
150
00:08:34,723 --> 00:08:39,728
to be exiled to the Bowels of Zandar,
as you exiled me.
151
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:46,819
Again, not sure how I did that,
but I was probably pretty awesome, so…
152
00:08:46,902 --> 00:08:50,364
You couldn't defeat me
without the Ruby of Zubadube.
153
00:08:50,447 --> 00:08:52,992
What chance do you have now?
154
00:08:53,075 --> 00:08:56,036
Well, um, because I have, uh…
155
00:08:57,371 --> 00:08:59,707
the Stone of Fortitude!
156
00:08:59,790 --> 00:09:03,919
Yeah… there's no Stone of Fortitude.
That's just a rock.
157
00:09:04,420 --> 00:09:08,424
I mean, the Slab of Sorcery!
158
00:09:08,507 --> 00:09:11,927
That's just tree bark
and has absolutely no powers.
159
00:09:12,636 --> 00:09:14,471
Yes, it does.
160
00:09:16,181 --> 00:09:17,891
My wart!
161
00:09:18,392 --> 00:09:20,227
Fire, dragon-dog!
162
00:09:24,898 --> 00:09:28,235
Stink at flying. Great with fire.
163
00:09:28,319 --> 00:09:33,532
You may have ruined my wand,
but I still have the ruby!
164
00:09:33,616 --> 00:09:35,492
And for that,
165
00:09:35,576 --> 00:09:37,411
I will exile both of--
166
00:09:38,287 --> 00:09:40,706
Get them off of me! Off!
167
00:09:40,789 --> 00:09:42,041
Help! Help!
168
00:09:42,124 --> 00:09:44,126
Uh, what's with the capes?
169
00:09:44,209 --> 00:09:46,879
I freed them earlier,
and I think they're returning the favor.
170
00:09:48,297 --> 00:09:49,423
Ooh!
171
00:09:55,346 --> 00:09:59,391
Wizard Lad, you stopped Moldywart
once again.
172
00:09:59,475 --> 00:10:02,269
And found the Ruby of Zubadube.
173
00:10:02,353 --> 00:10:06,315
Which means Moldywart will not be
destroying me or Dumbledumb
174
00:10:06,398 --> 00:10:07,858
for a long time.
175
00:10:07,941 --> 00:10:11,654
You may have defeated me
this time, Wizard Lad,
176
00:10:11,737 --> 00:10:13,489
and two times before that…
177
00:10:13,572 --> 00:10:16,492
but I will destroy you!
178
00:10:16,575 --> 00:10:19,411
Dude, what is your beef with Wizard Lad?
179
00:10:19,495 --> 00:10:20,621
I mean, me?
180
00:10:20,704 --> 00:10:25,459
Your parents mocked my moldy wart
when I was a kid at this school,
181
00:10:25,542 --> 00:10:29,880
but I vowed to return and make them pay.
182
00:10:30,464 --> 00:10:33,008
You know you had a magic wand, right?
183
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,013
My wart! It's gone!
184
00:10:38,097 --> 00:10:39,973
Now, why didn't I think of that?
185
00:10:40,057 --> 00:10:42,685
OK, I think things
at Dumbledumb are looking up.
186
00:10:42,768 --> 00:10:46,271
And your brain is finally calming down.
187
00:10:49,316 --> 00:10:51,235
Yes! He's out of the book!
188
00:10:51,318 --> 00:10:52,945
And his brain didn't explode.
189
00:10:53,028 --> 00:10:56,448
So, what do you think
about Wizard Lad now?
190
00:10:56,532 --> 00:11:00,160
OK, fine, I admit it.
Wizard Lad is pretty cool.
191
00:11:00,244 --> 00:11:03,080
So you're going
to read them now?
192
00:11:03,163 --> 00:11:04,998
What? No. Never!
193
00:11:06,166 --> 00:11:07,876
But, just curious,
194
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:12,131
how did Wizard Lad crush Moldywart
and exile him to the Bowels of Zandar?
195
00:11:12,214 --> 00:11:15,384
It's right there in the fourth book.
196
00:11:18,429 --> 00:11:20,139
Stop looking at me.
