The class has decided to give the Friz a present for Earth Day--a cocoa bean tree in the Amazon Rainforest, as cocoa beans are used to make chocolate. The day just happens to be the one when the first shipment reaches them, but for some reason, the tree has produced none. They go to the rainforest to find the reason and the Friz hires Tim and Dorothy Ann "RFIs," or Rainforest Investigators. The tree is in a patch of the rainforest controlled by Inspector 47 (Matt Frewer), who talks with a strong French accent and runs around the rainforest in a white suit. He is very proud that he got rid of the mud in his patch, however, the class finds out, at the end, that the mud's absence was what caused that of cocoa beans. The mud holes were where the insects that pollinated the cocoa pods lived, and it is revealed that Inspector 47 had covered the rainforest floor with artificial turf. They explain this to him and he decides to "rip up this filthy artificial turf with my bare hands".

00:02Seatbelts, everyone!
00:04Please let this be a normal field trip.
00:06With a frizz?
00:07No way!
00:08Cruising on down Main Street, you're relaxed and feeling good.
00:12Yeah!
00:12Next thing that you know, you're skiing.
00:16Octopus in the neighborhood!
00:18Surfing on a sound wave, swinging through the stars.
00:22Yeah!
00:22Take a nap that's your intestine.
00:24Take your second right past Mars.
00:26I'm a magic school of us.
00:28Laffigate a nostril.
00:30Climb on the magic school bus.
00:32Spank a plankton too.
00:34On our magic school bus.
00:36Wrap the river of lava.
00:38On the magic school bus.
00:40Such a fine thing to do.
00:42Whoa!
00:43So strap your bones right to the seat.
00:45Come on in and don't be shy.
00:47Come on!
00:47Just to make your day complete.
00:49You might get baked into a pie.
00:51On the magic school bus.
00:53Step inside, it's a wire to ride.
00:56Come on!
00:57Right on the magic school bus!
01:00Ah!
01:08It all started on a Monday morning, before the first battle.
01:11But it wasn't just any Monday morning.
01:15It was Earth Day, the day we celebrate taking care of our Earth.
01:19We'd ordered a surprise Earth Day present for Ms. Frizzle from the Rainforest Rentals Catalog,
01:24and we were waiting for it to arrive.
01:27Mail order?
01:28Ha!
01:28I call it fail order.
01:30Ms. Frizzle will be here any minute.
01:32Meanwhile, Tim was seriously stuck on his essay assignment.
01:36What does Earth Day mean to you?
01:39What does Earth Day mean?
01:42Well, to me, Earth Day means thinking about how animals and plants all live together, like
01:47those squirrels, and that oak tree.
01:52That's great, Phoebe.
01:54But I don't know what that means, so it can't mean that to me, if you know what I mean.
01:59Hey guys, the present's here!
02:01Hello!
02:03It's Earth Day!
02:05Do you know where your teacher is?
02:07Good morning, class!
02:10Happy Earth Day, Ms. Frizzle!
02:13Hello!
02:13And happy Earth Day to all of you!
02:15Earth Day!
02:16Oh-ho!
02:17My favorite holiday!
02:18We know!
02:19So here's a little Earth Day present, Ms. Frizzle, from us to you.
02:25A present?
02:26For me?
02:27Oh, you shouldn't have.
02:31Why, thank you, Liz.
02:34Congratulations, Ms. Frizzle.
02:37You have rented a tree in the Rainforest.
02:39You are helping to preserve all rainforest plants and animals.
02:43What a worthwhile gift.
02:45Wait!
02:46There's more!
02:48Oh, my!
02:50My very own cocoa tree!
02:52How did you know?
02:54We know that cocoa trees make cocoa beans, and cocoa beans make chocolate.
02:59Oh, my favorite thing on Earth!
03:02What a day!
03:03And listen to this!
03:05As a cocoa tree renter,
03:07you are entitled to all the cocoa beans your cocoa tree produces for one year!
03:13And here's your first shipment of cocoa beans!
03:18Open it!
03:20Open it!
03:21Open it!
03:21Open it!
03:21Hmm, hmm, hmm.
03:24Gasp!
03:26That's it?
03:30One measly shriveled...
03:33Cocoa bean!
03:35We've been had!
03:37Look, there's a note.
03:39Due to circumstances beyond my control, your cocoa tree is temporarily experiencing a cocoa bean shortage.
03:46Signed, Inspector 47.
03:48A temporary cocoa bean shortage?
03:52What's that supposed to mean?
03:54It means no cocoa beans!
03:57But why?
03:59Things don't happen without a reason!
04:01Ah!
04:01A meaningful point, Tim!
04:04I knew that look!
04:05I didn't even have to ask, but I did!
04:08Miss Frizzle?
04:09Where are you going?
04:11To the rain forest!
04:14Where else?
04:14Before the Pledge of Allegiance was pledged, we were on our way to the rain forest!
04:20To untangle the web of mystery that surrounded the missing cocoa beans!
04:28Wahoo!
04:30Don't worry, guys!
04:32According to my sense of truth, justice, and the Milky Way, I'll crack the case of the missing cocoa beans,
04:39or my name's not...
04:41Detective D.A.
04:46What's this?
04:48Cool!
04:49My own RFI license!
04:52What's an RFI?
04:54A rain forest investigator.
04:57Every continent needs a few.
04:59And a rain forest handbook!
05:01Now I've got everything!
05:03Except a partner!
05:05Every good detective has a partner.
05:10Dorothy Ann's in charge of the investigation, Tim, and you're in charge of...
05:14The big picture.
05:16The big picture?
05:18The big picture?
05:18As big as Earth itself!
05:22Before we knew it, we had arrived at the rain forest!
05:26Whoa!
05:27It's wall-to-wall trees down there!
05:32It looks like they're connected to each other!
05:36How are we ever gonna find Ms. Frizzle's tree?
05:39As my old parachute instructor used to say, look before you leap and never jump to conclusions!
05:48On the other hand, take over, Liz!
05:51Single file, please!
05:56Before we jump, I gave everyone a photo of Ms. Frizzle's tree!
06:01I knew if we could find her tree, we'd find the cocoa bean thief!
06:07Look how many different kinds of trees there are!
06:10And birds and animals!
06:13And insects!
06:15Wahoo!
06:23Excuse me, guys!
06:26Have you seen this tree?
06:28Is that a no?
06:30Okay, okay!
06:31I'm outta here!
06:35Ew!
06:36What's all this sticky stuff?
06:37Hey, Carlos!
06:38What's going on?
06:42They weren't expecting visitors!
06:44Let's get outta here!
06:45Wait!
06:46Yum!
06:47Fruit juice!
06:48Wow!
06:48Those monkeys are regular juicers for all these ants!
06:52Yikes!
06:54An anteater!
06:56Haha!
06:56This must be his favorite rainforest restaurant!
07:00Hey, D.A., look at this!
07:02There's more than just cocoa trees in the rainforest!
07:05There are tons of fruit trees!
07:07And if we're looking for suspects, what about these guys?
07:11Maybe they like cocoa beans, too!
07:14I figured Tim was barking up the wrong tree!
07:16So I have to set him straight!
07:18Listen, partner!
07:19We're looking for this tree and a suspect named Inspector 47!
07:24Okay?
07:25Well, yeah!
07:27But to get the big picture, maybe we need more info!
07:31D.A., we've got a match!
07:34There's the Frizz's tree!
07:35It's your cocoa tree, all right, Ms. Frizzle!
07:40Oh, it's beautiful!
07:42I just want to hug it!
07:44Sorry, Ms. Frizzle!
07:46You can't catch a thing!
07:47According to my handbook, we've got a desk for fingerprints!
07:50And according to this picture, the tree should be covered with pods!
07:55But it's not!
07:56There's only flowers!
07:58How come?
07:59Hmm...
08:00There's no sign the pods have been picked!
08:03It's as if the cocoa tree just stopped making them!
08:06No pods!
08:07No beans!
08:09But the tree is healthy!
08:10Just look at all these flowers!
08:12So what's going on?
08:15Rain!
08:18Help!
08:26I knew the rainforest would net some surprises!
08:29I just didn't expect to be in the net!
08:32Congratulations, D.A.
08:34Looks like this case is all wrapped up!
08:36Carlos!
08:41At last!
08:43I have captured the cocoa bean thieves!
08:46All you've captured is trouble, mister!
08:49A rainforest investigator!
08:52Mon dieu!
08:53My...
08:54My humble apologies!
08:59Please, please do not report me to Inspector One!
09:03If he ever found out...
09:05Wait a minute!
09:06Who are you?
09:07I am Inspector 47!
09:10This is my little patch of rainforest!
09:14Well, this is the tree we rented for Ms. Frizzle!
09:18Ms. Frizzle!
09:20Oh!
09:21And their students!
09:22Of course!
09:24Uh...
09:24You are concerned about the cocoa bean shortage, no?
09:27Yes!
09:31You're not alone!
09:32Neither is Ms. Frizzle's cocoa tree!
09:35It looks like none of these cocoa trees have pods!
09:39Well, they used to, but for some reason all of the pods have gone poof!
09:45That is the bad news!
09:47But, the good news is, all the mud wallows have also gone!
09:52Poof!
09:53Mud wallows?
09:55Oui!
09:56Patches of filthy mud, filled with the little pores of disgusting water!
10:04Not only that, I have gotten rid of the horrible bugs and the pesky peccaries!
10:11Look, Inspector!
10:12We didn't come down here to study mud-free, bug-free, peccary-free zones!
10:17We came to crack the case of Ms. Frizzle's missing cocoa beans!
10:22Un moment!
10:24Inspector Forty-Six!
10:27Inspector Forty-Six!
10:29Yes, Inspector Forty-Six!
10:32My neighbor is madly jealous of my bug-free, peccary-free, mud-free place of work!
10:39Though he put the curse on my cocoa trees!
10:44That is why they no longer produce the cocoa beans!
10:49J'cuse, Inspector Forty-Six!
10:51J'cuse!
10:54I wonder if the bugs and peccaries could have something to do with the missing cocoa beans!
11:00Stick to the facts, Tim!
11:02Just the facts!
11:03This is about cocoa beans, period!
11:06Hmm, but the question still remains.
11:08What would cause healthy cocoa trees to stop making pods?
11:12Hey, you guys!
11:13Over here!
11:15A hummingbird with pollen on its beak!
11:18Isn't he cool?
11:19Look how he just fits inside the flower!
11:24Where's he going?
11:26Well...
11:29As my cousin Bee always says,
11:32Pollen's gotta travel for its wonders to unravel.
11:37Okay, so the hummingbird carries pollen from flower to flower,
11:42pollinating them so they turn into seeds, or fruits, or bean pods.
11:47Maybe the flowers on Miss Frizzle's tree didn't get pollinated.
11:51No pollination, no pods, no beans!
11:55That's it!
11:56This is a case of missing pollen!
11:59And I'm going to prove it!
12:03Sorry, D.A., no pollen missing here.
12:05This cocoa flower's making plenty of it!
12:08Okay, so I was wrong!
12:10Then suddenly, the case opened up like a flower to a bee!
12:14I think it's going to pollinate Miss Frizzle's tree!
12:18No way, Arn!
12:19This bee's too big to get into a cocoa tree flower!
12:22If the bee's too big, then it must be a really tiny insect that carries pollen between the flowers of
12:30cocoa trees!
12:31So, where are they?
12:37Faster than you can say Earth Day, the case of the missing beans had turned into the mystery of the
12:42missing insects!
12:43And to find the insects, we had to find a cocoa tree with pods!
12:49You are now leaving the mud-free zone!
12:52Beware of the peccaries, the bugs, and the filthy mud!
12:58Man, Inspector 47 sure has got a thing about mud!
13:02And I've got a hunch it has something to do with the missing cocoa beans!
13:07A connection worth detection, Tim!
13:09But, Miss Frizzle, what could mud possibly have to do with cocoa beans?
13:14Besides, we're searching for teeny insects!
13:17Is it just me, or are we about to get down and muddy with a...
13:21Pack of peccaries!
13:24Watch out!
13:30Whoa!
13:37Just when it looked like our Earth Day investigation was turning into Mud Day mayhem, Miss Frizzle gave us a
13:44boost!
13:46Whoa!
13:50Now that's what I call springing into action!
13:55Whoa!
13:56Look at all these cocoa trees!
13:58And they're loaded with pods!
14:01And real-life cocoa beans!
14:04And where there's a working cocoa tree, we should find our missing insect!
14:10I was right!
14:11The flower was getting pollinated by a teeny-weeny insect!
14:15Which, by the way, goes by the name of midge-fly!
14:19So I get it!
14:20Midge-flies carry the pollen...
14:22From the flower of one cocoa tree to the next!
14:25And the pollinated flowers turn into pods...
14:27That are filled with cocoa beans...
14:29That make chocolate!
14:32Get the picture, Tim?
14:34Got it, Miss Frizzle!
14:35It's all in here!
14:37Hey!
14:38Where'd the water come from?
14:40Up there!
14:41What's that?
14:42A bromeliad!
14:43Need to take a closer look?
14:49Check it out!
14:50You're not gonna believe it!
14:51There's a whole world of life going on here!
14:54There's a slug drinking water...
14:56An iguana taking a bath...
14:58A frog laying eggs...
15:00And the eggs hatching into tadpoles!
15:02All in the same plant?
15:05Yeah!
15:05It's like they're all part of the same tiny world!
15:08Living, eating, and hatching in this one little pool of water!
15:14But unlike these midge-flies, it's got nothing to do with our cocoa trees!
15:19If we could get these midges back to Miss Frizzle's tree, our problem solved!
15:24Hold it, D.A.
15:26What happens when those midges die?
15:28We'll be right back where we started!
15:30Could the picture be a little bigger than you thought, D.A.?
15:34No way!
15:35The solution to this mystery is the midges!
15:38I'm sure of it!
15:40But, D.A., don't you wanna know why the midges disappeared?
15:44Yeah!
15:45Things aren't always what they seem!
15:47Like this bromeliad!
15:48It's not just a plant!
15:50It's a pond of water, too!
15:52And things live in water!
15:53Take away the pond, and the slug, the frog, and the insects will all disappear!
16:01Tim!
16:05What Earth Day means to me?
16:09Welcome to Mudville, Tim!
16:11Mudville?
16:12This is Bugville!
16:13D.A., quick, your magnifying glass!
16:18Just as I suspected, a mud wallow for the peccaries is also home, sweet home, for the mitch flies!
16:27You're right!
16:28It seems that watery mud wallows are the perfect place for laying eggs, hatching larvae, and raising midges!
16:36The plot, and the mud, thickens!
16:39I told you mud had something to do with it!
16:42Inspector 47 got rid of the peccaries, which got rid of the mud wallows, which got rid of the insects,
16:49which got rid of the cocoa pods, because the cocoa flowers never got pollinated!
16:55Then Inspector 47 is our culprit after all!
16:59But how did he get rid of the peccaries?
17:02I think he missed a few!
17:05Peccary Stampede!
17:10Nothing like a pack of peccaries to place us in a perilous predicament!
17:15One thing about going on a field trip with Ms. Frizzle, we could always count on a hands-on experience!
17:24Whoa!
17:24Hey!
17:30Thank you!
17:32What's going on?
17:34Class, pursue those peccaries!
17:39Anything in your handbook about how to stop a stampeding peccary?
17:44I'm looking!
17:45You are now entering the mud-free zone!
17:48You are now entering the mud-free zone!
17:49You are now entering the mud-free zone!
17:49We're back in Inspector 47's patch of rainforest!
17:53Turn around!
17:54Go back!
17:55Shoo!
17:56Get!
17:56Go away!
18:05Whoa!
18:07Tim!
18:08Come back!
18:10Look what you have done to my thought!
18:13I will not allow those filthy animals in that patch of the rainforest!
18:18Those filthy animals, as you put it, are just what your cocoa trees need to make cocoa beans!
18:26Of course!
18:27It is the peccaries who make the cocoa beans!
18:33She is not only a rainforest investigator, she is a comedian!
18:39We'll see who has the last laugh, Inspector!
18:43It was time to prove our theory and wrap up the case of the missing cocoa beans!
18:47For your cocoa trees to make pods with beans, your cocoa flowers need to get pollinated by Mitch flies!
18:57And Mitches need watery mudwallows to breed in!
19:00And mudwallows are made by peccaries!
19:04Do you follow me?
19:06Then I'll continue!
19:07The peccaries who make the mudwallows left because, well...
19:13Because...
19:14The, uh...
19:15Whoa!
19:16Nelly Bell!
19:17Ooh!
19:20Nice of you to drop in, Tim!
19:22Wait a minute!
19:24What's this?
19:25So that's it!
19:27What is it?
19:28The peccaries left because there was no ground to wallow in!
19:32Because you, Inspector 47, cover the rainforest floor with artificial turf!
19:39Is this true?
19:43Yes.
19:45It is true!
19:46But how was I to know a little artificial turf would ruin my cocoa trees?
19:55That's because you didn't know that you were messing up the big picture!
20:00Pardonne-moi?
20:01Whether it's the brossom tree that feeds the monkey, that feeds the ant, that feeds the ant ear,
20:07Or the tree that gives the bromeliad plant a lift to the light,
20:11Which then gives animals in the trees a place to drink, to eat, and to breed!
20:17The truth is, the rainforest is filled with plants and animals that are connected in
20:23Drillions of ways!
20:24And all the connections in this big picture form a web!
20:29The web of life!
20:30And all plants and animals, including people, squirrels, oak trees, cocoa beans, peccaries, fish, or inspectors,
20:41are part of the web!
20:46It's what Earth Day is all about!
20:51All I wanted was to save on my dry-cleaning bill!
20:55And, mon Dieu, I have spoiled the web of life!
20:59It can happen, Inspector! But in this case, nothing has been ruined!
21:04It hasn't?
21:05No! We can repair the link between peccaries and cocoa beans by returning things to the way they were!
21:12Can't we?
21:14I hope so!
21:16I will reap up these filthy artificial turf with my bare hands!
21:21And so, the mystery was solved!
21:23The artificial turf was history!
21:25Tim found the meaning of Earth Day when he figured out the web of life!
21:29And Inspector 47 begged for a pardon from the peccaries!
21:34Come back, my pretty peccaries!
21:37I have a beautiful mud wallow just for you!
21:41The web must be restored!
21:43Sweet! Sweet!
21:46Sweet!
21:49It was a happy Earth Day after all!
21:57Several months later, Miss Frizzle received another shipment from Rainforest Rentals!
22:02All right!
22:05Yeah!
22:06Look at all those cocoa beans!
22:08There was a note from Inspector 47!
22:11Due to circumstances beyond my control, your cocoa tree has produced a bumper crop of cocoa beans!
22:19Yes!
22:20Signed, Inspector 22!
22:23Inspector 22?
22:25Thanks to you and your students, I got a promotion!
22:29Yeah!
22:30Woo!
22:31Yay!
22:41Is this the Magic School Bus?
22:51I want the Magic School Bus!
22:59Thanks, Liz. Now, give me all your sevens.
23:02Hey, hey, hey, come back here. I was winning.
23:07Hello, Magic School Bus. Producer speaking.
23:10First, I want to know what happened to all those cocoa beans.
23:13We're roasting them now.
23:15Roasting them?
23:16Yep. We're making our own chocolate, and roasting the beans is the first step.
23:20Anything else?
23:21Yes. At the beginning of the show, you showed some squirrels in an oak tree.
23:24But you never talked about how they're connected.
23:27Good point. The squirrel that buried the acorn was storing food,
23:30but squirrels don't dig up all the acorns they bury.
23:34Oh, so they also plant seeds for new oak trees.
23:38Exactly. I'm glad you brought that up.
23:40It's not only the rainforest, which depends on the web of life.
23:43Everywhere, even in my backyard, there are relationships like that going on right now.
23:48How right you are. Thanks for calling.
23:50You're welcome.
23:52Okay, Liz. How's the chocolate coming?
23:55Magic School Bus.
23:56How about shedding some light on my midge problem?
23:59And what midge problem might that be?
24:01Well, if there were pools of water up in those bromeliad plants,
24:05and the midges needed a watery place to breed,
24:08why didn't they just breed in the bromeliads?
24:10Good question.
24:11In real life, there are usually more ways for things to happen,
24:14but we wanted to keep it simple.
24:16Well, you sure kept it simple and silly when it came to Inspector 47.
24:22How do you mean?
24:23He was the lamest, most overdone, phony baloney official I've ever seen.
24:29I mean, he was straight out of a cartoon.
24:32Could you hold on for a second? Hello?
24:34I heard that coming.
24:36Would you like to talk to the young man?
24:38Absolute amul.
24:41Are you calling me a cartoon?
24:44Well, that's what you are.
24:45Who would run around the rainforest in a white suit,
24:49talking like this?
24:50I would, and I do.
24:53And however you look at it,
24:55you and I are connected by the web of life.
24:59Yeah?
25:00Well, we won't be connected by telephone if I hang up.
25:03Ha, ha, ha, ha.
25:10Surfing on the sun wave,
25:13swinging through the stars.
25:14Take a left at your intestine,
25:16take your second right past Mars
25:18on an action-screw the earth.
25:20Propagate a nostril.
25:22Climb on the magic school bus.
25:24Spank a plainton tube.
25:25Take that!
25:26On our magic school bus.
25:28Wrap the river of lava.
25:30On the magic school bus.
25:32Such a fine thing to do.
25:33Whoa!
25:35So strap your bones right to the sea.
25:37Come on in and don't be shy.
25:39Come on!
25:39Just to make your day complete.
25:41You might get baked into a pie.
25:43On the magic school bus.
25:45Stuff inside is so wild to ride.
25:48Come on!
25:49Right on the magic school bus!
25:51Okay.
25:52Good idea.
25:53You
