00:01Bringing Spring
00:07On a cold and gloomy day in February,
00:10there's only one thing you can do.
00:16Hey, let's play a game.
00:18Forget it. I'm not moving until spring.
00:21But that's the whole point.
00:23This game will get rid of winter, guaranteed.
00:25It's called...
00:26Bring Spring.
00:30Bring Spring?
00:32What are you talking about?
00:34Spring isn't something you can bring.
00:38Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:41It won't work if everyone knows about it, okay?
00:47We have to find a secret place to play.
00:50Come on.
00:56Quack decided to check the garden first.
01:02Gardens are usually empty in winter.
01:05Yeah, looking good.
01:07Very secret.
01:14Oops, worm. Forget it.
01:16Quack, that worm is not going to tell anyone about your game.
01:20I'm not taking any chances.
01:22Nope, no siree, Bob.
01:24Hmm.
01:25Much better.
01:26Completely private.
01:27No one can hear us now.
01:28I can hear you.
01:29Huh?
01:30Huh?
01:31Huh?
01:32Huh?
01:33Huh?
01:34Huh?
01:35It'll be summer.
01:36It'll be summer.
01:37Huh?
01:38Huh?
01:39Huh?
01:40Huh?
01:41Huh?
01:42Huh?
01:43Huh?
01:44Huh?
01:45Huh?
01:46Huh?
01:47Huh?
01:48Huh?
01:49Huh?
01:50Huh?
01:51Huh?
01:52Huh?
01:53Huh?
01:54Huh?
01:55Huh?
01:56Huh?
01:57Huh?
01:58Huh?
01:59Huh?
02:00Huh?
02:01Huh?
02:02Uh?
02:03Quack.
02:04Uh, the fish are too sleepy to listen, so I think we're ready to play!
02:07I said, are you ready to play?
02:11Yes.
02:12Okay, the first thing we got to do to bring spring is stand in a circle.
02:18Now put your right foot in.
02:20What?
02:21Just do it, okay?
02:22Right foot in.
02:26Good.
02:26Now stick your right foot out.
02:29Then you have to shake it all about.
02:37Okay, am I dreaming?
02:39Or did a strange animal just pick quack up?
02:43What are you doing?
02:44Put me down.
02:46You can't go around picking up birds.
02:49Don't you know that?
02:51But I'm looking for something and you might be on it.
02:55Hey.
02:56Put down the peep.
02:57I'm only going to say it once.
02:59Put down the peep.
03:02Not on me.
03:04Get up.
03:05You're on my hat.
03:07I'll never find it.
03:08Never, never, never.
03:12Find what?
03:13My shadow.
03:15Everyone went looking for their shadows today.
03:17And I wanted to find mine.
03:19Only I can't because I don't know what it is.
03:22You don't know about shadows?
03:25They're a copy of you that's on the ground.
03:28Or a wall.
03:29Or anywhere, really.
03:31And it's just like you.
03:32Only it isn't.
03:34You don't know what it's on the ground.
03:35You don't know what it's on the ground.
03:36See?
03:37When it's sunny out, you get a shadow of your exact shape.
03:39Like this.
03:40Sometimes, but sometimes it's a totally different shape.
03:44It depends on where the sun is.
03:45Right.
03:46And because there's no sun today, you can't see any shadows at all.
03:50You know what?
03:52You guys are really bad at explaining stuff.
03:55Peep, Quack, and Chirp realized that a shadow was hard to explain.
04:00So they decided to show the, um...
04:04What are you, anyway?
04:05A groundhog?
04:07Oh.
04:10They decided to show the groundhog her shadow using a flashlight from the dump.
04:16Stand right there.
04:18There.
04:19Okay, Quack.
04:20Hit it.
04:21I don't get it.
04:23I just see a light.
04:25That's it!
04:26That's my shadow!
04:27Woo-hoo!
04:28Yes!
04:29Weird.
04:30What's so important about a groundhog's shadow, anyway?
04:31It's kind of not your business.
04:32But since you help me, I'll let you come to our meeting.
04:37But you have to promise not to tell any groundhog secrets.
04:43Or else.
04:44Or else what?
04:45It's my shadow!
04:46It's my shadow!
04:47Woo-hoo!
04:48Yes!
04:49Weird.
04:50What's so important about a groundhog's shadow, anyway?
04:53It's kind of not your business.
04:55But since you help me, I'll let you come to our meeting.
04:58Or else.
04:59Or else what?
05:00I don't know.
05:01Just...
05:02Or else.
05:07Okay.
05:13When we get to where we're going, try and pretend you're groundhogs, okay?
05:18Uh, gotcha.
05:22What do you think?
05:23Does this look groundhoggy?
05:25It's all in the cheeks.
05:27Those are the important groundhogs over there.
05:41They're talking about something important.
05:44Ahem.
05:45Ahem.
05:46Friends.
05:47Relatives.
05:48That big blue duck in the back.
05:55Since time immemorial, groundhogs have been given a sacred trust.
05:59Which is to ascertain the secrets of the seasons and determine when the vernal equinox will make it...
06:05Excuse me?
06:06Yeah, you?
06:07The old guy?
06:08Could you talk so ducks can understand?
06:10That'd be great.
06:11Thanks.
06:12Yeah.
06:13So, on February the 2nd, which is today, groundhogs go outside to look for their shadows.
06:23If they find them, it means six more weeks of winter.
06:26If they don't, it's a sign of spring.
06:30Since nobody found any shadows today, I hereby proclaim that spring has arrived.
06:36Excuse me!
06:37Excuse me!
06:38Excuse me!
06:39I saw mine!
06:40I did!
06:41I saw it!
06:42I saw my shadow!
06:43Clear as day!
06:44Right?
06:45Really?
06:46Odd.
06:47Well, if that's the case, then I hereby declare that spring isn't here.
07:00Meeting adjourned.
07:01Yay!
07:02Yay!
07:03Yay!
07:04Yay!
07:05Yay!
07:06Yay!
07:07Yay!
07:08Yay!
07:09Yay!
07:10Yay!
07:11Yay!
07:12Yay!
07:13Are you telling me that spring would be here right now if we hadn't helped that groundhog
07:18find her shadow?
07:19I don't think groundhogs have anything to do with spring, and neither do shadows.
07:24Yay!
07:25You're right!
07:26I forgot.
07:29Well, there's only one way to, BRING spring.
07:34Where'd you get that goofy game from, anyway?
07:37It's not a goofy game!
07:38It's a real true fact.
