00:00Tell me a story, read me a poem
00:16Wrap it in melody, sing me the song
00:21Think let me hold it, deep in my heart
00:26Where it can speak to me all the day long
00:30The adventure of virtue, the adventure of truth
00:36The thrill of knowing that it's up to you
00:41Building a new day, shining in the sun
00:46This is my story, the adventure can be done
00:56Hey Annie, how's it going?
01:13Um, hi Sarah
01:14What's the matter? You don't look too happy to see me
01:17Well sure I am, it's just I didn't think that you were talking to me
01:22Oh, you mean that deal at the library last week?
01:24That was just a misunderstanding
01:25Listen, what are you doing this Saturday?
01:29Gee, I don't know, not much I guess
01:31Because a bunch of kids are going canoeing on the river
01:34Including that cute Bobby Draper
01:36Hey, your dad has a canoe, doesn't he?
01:40Yeah, he said it's great
01:42That's what I thought
01:43We can be canoeing partners
01:45Really?
01:46Yeah, it'll be so much fun
01:48We'll shoot the rapids together
01:50Right, I'll be in the bow and you'll be in the stern
01:53Now, you're sure your dad will let us take his canoe?
01:56Sure, I'm sure
01:57Gee, it's kind of old
02:03Oh, it's a great canoe
02:05My dad's had it since he was a kid
02:07Yeah? Well, I guess it's okay
02:09See you Saturday
02:10I can hardly wait
02:12Hi, Mom
02:14Wasn't that Sarah West you were talking to?
02:17Mm-hmm
02:17You know, she's the new girl who just moved here from the city
02:20She's so cool
02:21But Annie, wasn't Sarah West the girl who left you stranded at the library last week?
02:27Yeah, Mom, but everything's okay now
02:29We're really good friends
02:31Well, I hope so
02:33I know so
02:35I think I'll go for a hike, okay?
02:37Just be home for supper
02:42Annie!
02:44Boy, am I glad I ran into you
02:46Listen, I've changed my mind about the canoe trip
02:49I'm going with Ashley instead
02:51Ashley?
02:52But I thought...
02:53She just called me
02:54Her parents got her this really cool new canoe
02:57I mean, after all
02:58I can't let Bobby Draper see me in some funky old canoe
03:02Sorry, but I knew you'd understand
03:04Yeah, I understand
03:07Now, what am I supposed to go with?
03:13And the worst part is
03:14I thought Sarah wanted to be my friend
03:17Oh, not to worry, Annie
03:20You've still got us
03:21That's sweet, guys
03:27But it's just not the same
03:29Sarah's so popular
03:31She's totally out for herself
03:33Sounds to me like a fair-weather friend, Annie
03:36No, that's not the way it was at all
03:39Maybe not
03:40But in friendship
03:41Everyone must bring something to the party
03:43And not something as superficial as a new canoe
03:46What do you mean?
03:48It means it's not what you have that makes a friendship
03:51It's what you give
03:53Like loyalty
03:54And caring
03:55That's what a young Native American boy, Wakiwa, discovered
04:00Wack?
04:01Wack where?
04:02Story time, Socko
04:04Wakiwa and his tribe were great hunters and fishermen
04:08One day, Wakiwa and his father were hunting near a mountainside
04:18Quietly, Wakiwa, quietly
04:21Watch and learn
04:23Father, look
04:32He must have fallen from a nest on the cliffs
04:36It has broken its wing, Wakiwa
04:42Put it out of its misery
04:43It will be one less eagle to grow up and plunder our fish from the drying frames
04:50Yes, father
04:53You're so scared
05:16So helpless
05:17I cannot do it
05:20Warm water
05:34To help your broken wing feel
05:35Do not be frightened
05:38I will not hurt you
05:39This is your new nest, little eagle
05:44Your father will not be pleased, Wakiwa
05:52But I am
05:54You have a gentle spirit
05:56When I was a little girl
05:59I also took injured forest creatures home and cared for them
06:02What is this?
06:04You have disobeyed me, Wakiwa
06:06I will get rid of this bird myself
06:09No, I will not let you
06:11Look at the brazen little warrior I have raised, mother
06:14Very well
06:18Keep your feathered friend until he can fly
06:21But then
06:22You must free him
06:23I will not keep this winged thief in my lodge
06:26Many moons passed as Wakiwa fed and cared for his broken eagle
06:33And the friendship between boy and bird grew stronger and stronger
06:38Until at last
06:39The eagle was well enough to fly
06:42This will be our last night together, my friend
06:50Tomorrow I must set you free
06:54Go, little eagle
07:01The sky is your home
07:05Not my lodge
07:06Now go
07:06Goodbye, little eagle
07:18Goodbye, my friend
07:20Goodbye, my friend
07:20No
07:27You must not follow me back to the village
07:30My father will shoot you
07:31Go
07:32The eagle was gone
07:39And then
07:40So was the summer
07:42Winter came and went
07:45And then came the spring
07:48Come, Wakiwa
07:50It is time to hunt the salmon
07:52Yes, father
07:53And the biggest are above the great falls of the Apahoki
07:56Oh, Wakiwa
07:57The current is too strong for a boy like you
07:59Come
07:59Do your fishing downstream
08:01I will go where the giant salmon are
08:05Above the rapids of the Apahoki
08:07And so it was that the daring Wakiwa found himself fishing alone above the falls
08:15Catching so many salmon
08:17He did not notice his canoe was caught in the swift moving current
08:20Whoa
08:21By then it was too late
08:23No
08:26No
08:26I am powerless against the river
08:32I must face death like a brave warrior
08:35Singing a song to the great spirit
08:37Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
09:07Yes, Little Eagle.
09:26Now we're even.
09:34Ah, what a story.
09:35Wow, I wish I had a friend like that.
09:39Hey, who'd you think got your tail out of the equator?
09:42Waqiu and Ezekiel had a friendship that really took off.
09:46Because it was based on caring, Zack.
09:49All Sarah cared about was what kind of canoe she'd be riding in.
09:54You know, Annie, sometimes friendships don't get off the ground for very good reasons.
09:59Like when a friend isn't trustworthy.
10:01Like Sarah. All I know is I'll never trust someone from a big city again.
10:06Oh, hold on there, Annie. That's not the point I'm trying to make.
10:10What do you mean?
10:11Well, if you stick with that attitude, you may miss out on some great friendships.
10:16Come on.
10:17Ari's going to tell you a wonderful African folktale.
10:20It's about this young frog, who was curious about everything.
10:33One sunny afternoon, something extraordinary happened.
10:38Hey!
10:41Whoops, sorry.
10:43Gee, I've never seen a creature like you before.
10:46That goes double for me.
10:48Where are you, anyway?
10:51Ew.
10:54Yuck!
10:55My name is Frog Child.
10:57What's yours?
10:59I'm Snake Child.
11:00What you doing just lying there on the ground?
11:04I'm warming myself in the sun.
11:06Hmm.
11:06Doesn't sound like much fun.
11:09Want to play with me?
11:11Sure!
11:12Great!
11:13Let's hop.
11:14That's always fun.
11:18Well, I don't know how.
11:20You don't know how to hop?
11:22Uh-uh.
11:25The problem is, you don't have all the necessary equipment.
11:28Oh, but don't worry about it.
11:32I'll teach you anyway.
11:39Isn't this fun?
11:44Yeah.
11:45Darn it on!
11:55Wow!
11:55How do you do it?
11:58I bet you'd like wriggling.
12:03Oh, this is great.
12:05Yeah!
12:05It's just as much fun as hoppin', only different.
12:10Ribbit!
12:11Hey, that's my dad.
12:13I gotta go.
12:17Yeah, that's my ma.
12:19Must dinner time.
12:22See you tomorrow.
12:23Hey!
12:24Hey!
12:24Hey!
12:28Hey, dad.
12:30Look at me.
12:33Good grief.
12:35Where in the world did you learn to do that?
12:38My new friend Snake Child taught me.
12:41Snake Child?
12:42You must never play with snakes.
12:45They're mean and bad and full of poison.
12:49But, dad...
12:50No buts about it.
12:52And for heaven's sakes, stop crawling on your belly like a...
12:56A...
12:56Reptile!
12:59Ribbit?
13:03Where'd you learn how to do that?
13:05From Frog Child.
13:07That's impossible.
13:09We don't play with frogs.
13:11You don't?
13:13What do we do with them?
13:14We eat them, of course.
13:17I couldn't eat my new friend!
13:21Just don't play with your food anymore, okay?
13:24And stop that hopping.
13:26You're a reptile, not an amphibian.
13:28But, the next day, Frog and Snake found themselves together again.
13:37Sorry.
13:39Didn't mean to scare you.
13:41Um, I'm not scared.
13:44I, uh, just, I don't feel like playing today.
13:48For a moment, the Snake Child remembered what his mother said about gobbling up the frog.
13:53Yeah, uh, well, I don't much feel like hopping today, anyhow.
14:00The two friends never played again.
14:03But they often thought of the good time they had together.
14:08They wanted to be friends, but they were kept apart.
14:12Yeah, I think I get the point.
14:14Where someone's from, or what they look like, doesn't tell you what kind of friend they'll make.
14:19Exactly.
14:20And, I guess, friendships aren't like, instead of Coco.
14:25They take time to make.
14:27And effort to keep.
14:28But, how do you know if a friend is really gonna be a true friend?
14:34Good question, Annie.
14:35When true friendship exists, there's almost no stronger bond, like in the tale of Damon and Pythias.
14:42Way back in the 4th century B.C., in the ancient Greek colony of Syracuse, in Sicily, there lived two young boys.
15:00Move, boy!
15:01Move!
15:01That was close.
15:05Thanks.
15:06I'm Damon.
15:08My name's Pythias.
15:09Sorry I couldn't save your job one.
15:11Could you teach me to throw one of these?
15:17You have taught me well, Damon.
15:19Too well, Pythias.
15:20And so, over time, the two boys became good friends, and taught each other much.
15:29Just release the discus, like this!
15:34You mean, like this!
15:36That was quite a throw, my friend.
15:40Our ruler, Dionysius the Younger, does not allow games to be played within the city walls.
15:47We were outside the walls, but the discus went over.
15:50It was an accident.
15:51Give it back, please.
15:54Get it if you can, you puny sparrow.
15:58Give it back!
16:02Leave my friend alone!
16:06That won't teach your rugs to challenge a soldier of Syracuse!
16:14We took care of him, didn't we?
16:16Yeah, I just hope we don't have to take care of him too often.
16:25Once, I would have vanquished you easily, Damon.
16:27You have grown stronger, my friend.
16:31But so, too, have the injustices of Dionysius and his soldiers.
16:36Something must be done.
16:37You cannot fight our king's soldiers, Pythias.
16:40Maybe not with swords, but there are other ways.
16:45A good ruler rules democratically, in the best interests of his people.
16:51But a tyrant persecutes his people, burdening them with careless edicts.
16:55You make rule!
16:58Yeah!
16:59Our people are oppressed.
17:01Dionysius should no longer rule.
17:03We must take action!
17:05He's right!
17:06Who is his trickle?
17:08His name is Pythias, and he has long been a troublemaker.
17:12No one speaks of my good friend that way.
17:14I am not afraid of Dionysius.
17:17In fact, I want to tell him what I think of him, face to face!
17:20That could be arranged.
17:22If you take him, you'll have to take me.
17:25Oh, very well.
17:27Tomorrow you shall both face the wrath of Dionysius.
17:30In short, you are cruel, arbitrary, and unjust, and not fit to rule our country.
17:38For months, I have heard of the caustic words you used to turn my people against me.
17:44Now you dare to criticize your monarch to his face?
17:48I dare to speak the truth.
17:50You speak treason!
17:53Take back your lies!
17:55If I had spoken any lies, I would take them back.
17:58You won't take them back.
18:00So I shall take you alive.
18:03Please!
18:04That's not fair!
18:05He'll...
18:05Silence!
18:06Shall I bring this one too, Majesty?
18:09No.
18:10The boy is right.
18:12I have not been fair.
18:14A fair ruler would grant this rebel one last request before he dies.
18:20What is your final wish, Pythias?
18:23Well, I wish to see my family one more time.
18:26To kiss my wife and child goodbye.
18:28And to arrange for their future.
18:30I wish to go home.
18:31Oh, you must think me a fool as well as a tyrant.
18:35If I let you go, you will flee the country and never come back.
18:39I give you my word.
18:41I shall return.
18:42Why should I believe you?
18:45Gods, take him!
18:46If you let him go, I shall stand in his place.
18:50You.
18:51Yes, me.
18:53If Pythias does not return, you may kill me instead.
18:56Daemon, I cannot let you do this.
18:59I want to do this, my friend.
19:01I think you are both fools.
19:03But this will indeed be good sport.
19:06You have a deal.
19:08You may call me fool, but Pythias calls me friend.
19:11I know he would not see me die in his place.
19:14He shall return.
19:15You may go, Pythias.
19:17But my patience is not endless.
19:20Be back three days from now, or else.
19:29That golden-tongued Pythias.
19:31Give him credit.
19:33Yeah, he's all the way to Carthage by now.
19:36Trust me, we'll never set eyes on him again.
19:40And this way we get rid of both of them.
19:45My friend will not abandon me.
19:50Two days have gone by, Daemon, yet your friend does not reappear.
19:55Surely you did not really believe Pythias would come back to lay down his life for you.
20:01Yes, I did.
20:02And I know he will.
20:03He must have been delayed.
20:04You are a fool, Daemon.
20:07And one day you will be a dead fool.
20:09All in the name of friendship.
20:12Time has run out, and your friend has not kept his word.
20:20But I must keep mine.
20:24Have you anything to say before the broadsword ends your life?
20:28Pythias will return.
20:30I do not see him anywhere.
20:33Executioner!
20:35Daemon!
20:36Daemon!
20:36I'm sorry I took so long, my friend.
20:40A storm wrecked my ship.
20:41Bandits attacked me.
20:42I almost gave up hope, but I knew you'd come back.
20:46I am now ready to accept my sentence of death.
20:53Farewell, my friend.
20:54Stop the execution.
20:55Never have I witnessed such trust and loyalty between friends.
21:01Your reward is your freedom.
21:06On one condition.
21:08Yes?
21:09You must teach me to be worthy of such a friendship.
21:14Well, that we shall do, Your Highness.
21:16Yes.
21:17Free him.
21:26Now that was a friendship.
21:28Whoa, I don't know if I could have been as brave as Daemon.
21:32He put his life on the line for his buddy.
21:35Oh, they didn't think of it as bravery, Zach.
21:38They were friends.
21:39They were devoted and true to each other.
21:41Yeah, those things really count.
21:44Like loyalty, honesty, and courage, too.
21:48And being willing to give to a friend, not just get something out of it.
21:52All those things we call virtues, they're an important part of being a good friend.
21:58Maybe one day I'll have a friend like Daemon or Pythias.
22:02Well, um, I don't have a Greek name, Annie, but would you, um, consider going canoeing with me?
22:12Sure you don't mind a leaky old canoe?
22:15Hey, I'm real good at bailing out.
22:18Yeah, so's Sarah.
22:19Looks like Annie already has a good friend.
22:26Aw, I just love happy endings.
22:32Make new friends, but keep the old.
22:35Those are silver, these are gold.
22:38Friendship never knows decay.
22:41For mid-old friends, tried and true.
22:44Once more we our youth renew.
22:46But old friends, alas, may die.
22:49New friends must their place supply.
22:51Cherish friendships in your breast.
22:54New is good, but old is best.
23:07And fearless friends fight side by side.
23:15Walk extra miles, do it double time.
23:25Set their shining sails to the raging sea.
23:33That's fearless friends like you and me.
23:45Tell me a story, read me a poem.
24:06Wrap it in melody, sing to the song.
24:10Then let me hold it deep in my heart, where it can speak to me all the day long.
24:19The adventure of virtue, the adventure of truth.
24:26The thrill of the knowing that it's up to you.
24:31Building a new day, shining in the sun.
24:36This is my story, the adventure has begun.
24:43Hey Annie, how's it going?
25:02Um, hi Sarah.
25:04What's the matter?
25:05You don't look too happy to see me.
25:07Well sure I am, it's just, I didn't think that you were talking to me.
25:11Oh, you mean that deal at the library last week?
25:13That was just a misunderstanding.
25:15Listen, what are you doing this Saturday?
25:18Gee, I don't know, not much I guess.
25:21Because a bunch of kids are going canoeing on the river.
25:23Including that cute Bobby Draper.
25:26Hey, your dad has a canoe, doesn't he?
25:30Yeah, he's headed to...
25:31Great, that's what I thought.
25:32We can be canoeing partners.
25:35Really?
25:35Yeah, it'll be so much fun.
25:38We'll shoot the rapids together.
25:40Hey, I'll be in the bow and you'll be in the stern.
25:43Now, you're sure your dad will let us take his canoe?
25:46Sure I'm sure.
25:50Gee, it's kind of old.
25:53Oh, it's a great canoe.
25:54My dad's had it since he was a kid.
25:56Yeah?
25:57Well, I guess it's okay.
25:59See you Saturday.
26:00I can hardly wait.
26:03Hi Mom.
26:04Wasn't that Sarah West you were talking to?
26:06Mm-hmm.
26:07You know, she's the new girl who just moved here from the city.
26:10She's so cool.
26:11But Annie, wasn't Sarah West the girl who left you stranded at the library last week?
26:16Yeah, Mom, but everything's okay now.
26:19We're really good friends.
26:21Well, I hope so.
26:23I know so.
26:24I think I'll go for a hike, okay?
26:26Just be home for supper.
26:27Annie!
26:33Boy, am I glad I ran into you.
26:36Listen, I've changed my mind about the canoe trip.
26:38I'm going with Ashley instead.
26:40Ashley?
26:41But I thought...
26:43She just called me.
26:44Her parents got her this really cool new canoe.
26:46I mean, after all, I can't let Bobby Draper see me in some funky old canoe.
26:52Sorry, but I knew you'd understand.
26:53Yeah, I understand.
26:59Now, who am I supposed to go with?
27:02And the worst part is, I thought Sarah wanted to be my friend.
27:07Oh, not to worry, Annie.
27:09You've still got us.
27:15That's sweet, guys.
27:17But it's just not the same.
27:19Sarah's so popular, she's totally out for herself.
27:22Sounds to me like a fair-weather friend, Annie.
27:26No, that's not the way it was at all.
27:28Maybe not.
27:29But in friendship, everyone must bring something to the party.
27:33And not something as superficial as a new canoe.
27:36What do you mean?
27:37It means it's not what you have that makes a friendship.
27:41It's what you give.
27:42Like loyalty and caring.
27:45That's what a young Native American boy, Wakiwa, discovered.
27:49Walk?
27:50Walk where?
27:51Story time, Socko.
27:54Wakiwa and his tribe were great hunters and fishermen.
28:02One day, Wakiwa and his father were hunting near a mountainside.
28:07Quietly, Wakiwa, quietly.
28:10Watch and learn.
28:20Father, look!
28:22He must have fallen from a nest on the cliffs.
28:25It's broken its wing, Wakiwa.
28:31Put it out of its misery.
28:35It will be one less eagle to grow up and plunder our fish from the drying frames.
28:41Yes, father.
28:42You're so scared.
29:06So helpless.
29:07I cannot do it.
29:08Warm water to help your broken wing heal.
29:26Do not be frightened.
29:27I will not hurt you.
29:32This is your new nest, little eagle.
29:38Your father will not be pleased, Wakiwa.
29:42But I am.
29:43You have a gentle spirit.
29:47When I was a little girl, I also took injured forest creatures home and cared for them.
29:52What is this?
29:53You have desobeyed me, Wakiwa.
29:57I will get rid of this bird myself.
29:59No!
30:00I will not let you!
30:01Look at the brazen little warrior I have raised, mother.
30:07Very well.
30:07Keep your feathered friend until he can fly.
30:10But then, you must free him.
30:13I will not keep this winged thief in my lodge.
30:18Many moons passed as Wakiwa fed and cared for his broken eagle.
30:23And the friendship between boy and bird grew stronger and stronger.
30:27Until at last, the eagle was well enough to fly.
30:31This will be our last night together, my friend.
30:41Tomorrow, I must set you free.
30:50Go, little eagle.
30:53The sky is your home, not my lodge.
30:55Goodbye, little eagle.
31:08Goodbye, my friend.
31:09No!
31:10You must not follow me back to the village.
31:19My father will shoot you.
31:21Go!
31:22The eagle was gone.
31:28And then, so was the summer.
31:33Winter came and went.
31:36And then came the spring.
31:38Come, Wakiwa.
31:39It is time to hunt the salmon.
31:42Yes, father.
31:43And the biggest are above the great falls of the Apahoki.
31:45No, Wakiwa.
31:46The current is too strong for a boy like you.
31:48Come.
31:49Do your fishing downstream.
31:52I will go where the giant salmon are, above the rapids of the Apahoki.
31:58And so it was that the daring Wakiwa found himself fishing alone, above the falls, catching so many salmon,
32:06he did not notice his canoe was caught in the swift moving current.
32:10By then, it was too late.
32:15No!
32:15No!
32:16I am powerless against the river.
32:22I must face death like a brave warrior, singing a song to the great spirit.
32:26Yeah!
32:27No!
32:28I am powerless against the river.
32:32And so it was too late.
32:33Cheering to go.
32:35How do I see death like a falcon?
32:36E-bolo, Golfo, Golfo.
32:37Pff...
32:38E-bolo!
32:39E-bolo!
32:39E-bolo!
32:40E-bolo!
32:40¡Un ubico!
33:10Yes, Little Eagle. Now we are even.
33:23Ah, what a story.
33:25Wow, I wish I had a friend like that.
33:28Hey, who'd you think got your tail out of the equator?
33:32Well, Q and his eagle had a friendship that really took off.
33:35Because it was based on caring, Zach.
33:38All Sarah cared about was what kind of canoe she'd be riding in.
33:43You know, Annie, sometimes friendships don't get off the ground for very good reasons.
33:48Like when a friend isn't trustworthy.
33:50Like Sarah. All I know is I'll never trust someone from a big city again.
33:55Oh, hold on there, Annie. That's not the point I'm trying to make.
33:59What do you mean?
34:01Well, if you stick with that attitude, you may miss out on some great friendships.
34:05Come on. Ari's going to tell you a wonderful African folktale.
34:09You betcha.
34:12It's about this young frog who was curious about everything.
34:16One sunny afternoon, something extraordinary happened.
34:29Hey!
34:30Oops, sorry.
34:32Gee, I've never seen a creature like you before.
34:35That goes double for me.
34:37Where are you anyway?
34:38My name is Frog Child.
34:46What's yours?
34:48I'm Snake Child.
34:50What you doing just lying there on the ground?
34:53I'm warming myself in the sun.
34:55Hmm, doesn't sound like much fun.
34:58Want to play with me?
35:00Sure!
35:00Great! Let's hop. That's always fun.
35:07Well, I don't know how.
35:10You don't know how to hop?
35:11Uh-uh.
35:14The problem is, you don't have all the necessary equipment.
35:19Oh.
35:20Oh, but don't worry about it. I'll teach you anyway.
35:23Isn't this fun?
35:33Yeah.
35:34Door it on.
35:44Wow.
35:45How do you do it?
35:48Do it with me?
35:49That you look like wrinkling.
35:51Oh, this is great.
35:54Yeah.
35:55It's just as much fun as hopping, only different.
35:59Ribbit.
36:01Oh, hey, that's my dad.
36:02I gotta go.
36:06Yeah, that's my ma.
36:08Must dinner time.
36:11See you tomorrow.
36:13Hey!
36:18Hey, Dad. Look at me.
36:21Good grief.
36:24Where in the world did you learn to do that?
36:27My new friend Snake Child taught me.
36:30Snake Child?
36:31You must never play with snakes.
36:34They're mean and bad and full of poison.
36:38But, Dad...
36:39No buts about it.
36:41And for heaven's sakes,
36:43stop crawling on your belly like a reptile.
36:46Where did you learn how to do that?
36:54From Frog Child.
36:57Impossible.
36:58We don't play with frogs.
37:00Don't?
37:01What do we do with them?
37:03We eat them, of course.
37:06I couldn't eat my new friend!
37:10Just don't play with your food anymore, okay?
37:13And stop that hopping.
37:14You're a reptile, not an amphibian.
37:17But, the next day,
37:23Frog and Snake found themselves together again.
37:26Sorry.
37:28Didn't mean to scare you.
37:30Um...
37:31I'm not scared.
37:34I, uh...
37:35Just...
37:35I don't feel like playing today.
37:38For a moment,
37:39the Snake Child remembered
37:40what his mother said
37:41about gobbling up the frog.
37:43Yeah...
37:44Well, I don't much feel like
37:46hopping today, anyhow.
37:49The two friends never played again.
37:52But they often thought
37:54of the good time they had together.
37:57They wanted to be friends,
37:59but they were kept apart.
38:01Yeah, I think I get the point.
38:04Where someone's from
38:05or what they look like
38:06doesn't tell you
38:07what kind of friend they'll make.
38:08Exactly.
38:10And I guess friendships
38:11aren't like...
38:12Instant Coco.
38:14They take time to make.
38:16And effort to keep.
38:18But...
38:18How do you know
38:20if a friend is really
38:21gonna be a true friend?
38:23Good question, Annie.
38:25When true friendship exists,
38:27there's almost no stronger bond.
38:29Like in the tale
38:30of Damon and Pythias.
38:32Way back in the 4th century B.C.
38:35in the ancient Greek colony
38:36of Syracuse in Sicily.
38:39There lived two young boys.
38:49Move, boy!
38:50Move!
38:50That was close.
38:54Thanks.
38:55I'm Damon.
38:57My name's Pythias.
38:58Sorry I couldn't save your job one.
39:00Could you teach me
39:01to throw one of these?
39:06You have taught me well, Damon.
39:08Too well, Pythias.
39:09And so, over time,
39:13the two boys became good friends
39:15and taught each other much.
39:18Just release the discus
39:20like this!
39:23You mean like this?
39:27That was quite a throw, my friend.
39:30Our ruler, Dionysius the Younger,
39:32does not allow games
39:34to be played within the city walls.
39:35We were outside the walls,
39:37but the discus went over.
39:39It was an accident.
39:40Give it back, please.
39:43Get it if you can,
39:45you puny sparrow.
39:48Give it back!
39:52Leave my friend alone!
39:53That will teach your brothers
39:59to challenge a soldier of Syracuse!
40:03We took care of him, didn't we?
40:05Yeah, I just hope
40:07we don't have to take care of him
40:08too often.
40:14Once, that would have...
