Hi there! I'm Megaphone! I suppose you're all wondering why I've gathered you all here.
|
|
Let me guess. You're hosting an object show.
|
|
Excellent guess! And a correct guess as well, I might add. Yes, I'm hosting the new object show, Object Trek!
|
|
Wow! I'd love to explore space!
|
|
Actually, this show will not take place in space. Don't let the name fool you.
|
|
Oh, come on!
|
|
The show is called Object Trek because we'll all be exploring the object world, having contests along the way!
|
|
Where do we explore first?
|
|
First we'll look for the island of Objectoo, because if we find it, the grand prize will be a trip there!
|
|
Sounds interesting!
|
|
It is interesting! But take a look at this screen.
|
|
Pan left to show a TV next to Megaphone.
|
|
The red circle shows where we are.
|
|
But what about the red triangle?
|
|
That's where my sister Loudspeaker is. She's also hosting an object show in which the contestants search for the island of Objectoo. We need to get there before she does, or Object Trek will be cancelled.
|
|
Whoa.
|
|
So get ready to boldly go where no object has gone before!
|
|
The intro plays.
|
|
So how do we pick the teams?
|
|
I have this ball pit here. Each ball has a person's name written on it. The first two people chosen from this ball pit will be team captains.
|
|
Sounds easy enough. (picks a ball from the ball pit and reads the name on it) Water Balloon!
|
|
Oh, no. (Stethoscope, Horn and Rope look at her) What? He and I don't get along very well. If I don't get picked as the other team captain, he'll pick me onto his team!
|
|
(picks another ball and reads the name on it) Pie!
|
|
Phew.
|
|
So the team captains are chosen. Now to pick team members!
|
|
Do we have to pick from the ball pit?
|
|
No, just pick team members from the remaining 18 contestants.
|
|
Okay. Soccer Ball, if we have an art contest, you'd be very useful. I pick you onto my team.
|
|
Wow! I don't get picked first very often!
|
|
Getting to the island of Objectoo will probably involve swimming. So I pick Swim Trunks. He's a great swimmer.
|
|
That's for sure.
|
|
I picked Soccer Ball already, so I think I should pick Beach Ball as well. But where is he?
|
|
He's probably bouncing around again. I'll handle this. (places a landing pad on the ground, which Beach Ball lands on)
|
|
What was that?
|
|
That, Pipey, is a landing pad. When Beach Ball lands on it, he stops bouncing.
|
|
Got it.
|
|
What happened? Did I miss anything?
|
|
Water Balloon picked you onto his team!
|
|
Yihoo! (walks toward Water Balloon)
|
|
Hey, that's my line.
|
|
I've picked Swim Trunks already, so I think I should pick his twin sister, Bathing Suit.
|
|
Yee-haw!
|
|
Hmm... I'll pick Rake.
|
|
I guess I'll take Flasky. She loves to go on adventures, so she'd be useful on my team.
|
|
I wouldn't want to take Scrolly. He and Flasky are best friends, so they should be on the same team. But Rake is friends with Horn and Pipey, but since I can't choose two people at a time, I'll start with just Horn.
|
|
Easy for you to say!
|
|
Thanks for the suggestion, Water Balloon. I guess I'll pick Scrolly.
|
|
That leaves Pipey still available for my team. I pick her.
|
|
Yay!
|
|
I pick Snowflake, the silent type.
|
|
이봐 요! 나는 말할 수있다, 너도 알다시피! (Hey, I can talk, you know!)
|
|
Oh yeah. You do talk. Just not much because you don't speak English.
|
|
Snowflake must be stupid. She doesn't even know how to speak English.
|
|
Broccoli, be nice!
|
|
Oh, be quiet, you little basket of...
|
|
Baskety explodes.
|
|
...goodies.
|
|
Baskety is recovered in the Object Restoration Device.
|
|
Anyway, yeah. Like Pie said, Snowflake does talk. Just not much because she doesn't speak English.
|
|
She speaks real Korean and Mock Korean, both of which I understand.
|
|
Good to know.
|
|
Umm, I'll take Music Note.
|
|
Good choice! I'm a good swimmer myself.
|
|
Dictionary says he understands the two languages Snowflake speaks, so it only makes sense that I should pick him onto my team!
|
|
I'll pick Flight Helmet. She's tons of fun!
|
|
I pick Rope.
|
|
Why did I overlook Stethoscope? She has the means to stop Beach Ball from bouncing!
|
|
Huh? Oh, you're talking about the landing pad.
|
|
Precisely, Stethoscope. That's why I'm choosing you next.
|
|
Hmm... This is tricky. It's down to Broccoli, Baskety, and Rolling Pin. Broccoli is disgusted at nearly everything. Baskety tends to talk a lot, and she has an explosive personality. Literally. Rolling Pin is quite clumsy. But he seems to be the best choice out of the three. I pick him.
|
|
And that leaves Broccoli and Baskety. Baskety seems to be the better choice of the two. I pick her.
|
|
Yihoo!
|
|
Well, I guess that leaves me with Broccoli.
|
|
I'm getting picked last? Yuck!
|
|
So, that's everyone. Now for team names!
|
|
Do we have to pick team names from the ball pit?
|
|
No, just think of team names and tell me what you've come up with.
|
|
I think I've come up with mine: the Squeezy Foxes.
|
|
Super! Water Balloon, your team is the Squeezy Foxes.
|
|
How about the Floppy Rabbits for my team?
|
|
Okay then. Pie, your team is the Floppy Rabbits.
|
|
To be continued...
