NARRATOR: It's always nice when a splendid bird from paradise
and a duck from a pond can share decorating tips.
Nice!
I like this red, blue, pink, green thing
you got going.
Nice.
Do you like my branch?
It's my whistle branch.
(whistling)
Hey, hey, if you're going to whistle, I got to go.
Bye.
NARRATOR: Splendid Bird had everything she ever wanted
in a home.
It was warm, it reminded her of the jungle,
it was near a loud, singing duck...
♪ No, ducks don't whistle because we can sing. ♪
NARRATOR: And it was sheltered from the weather.
SPLENDID BIRD: Ahh...
(wind whistling)
NARRATOR: But not enough.
SPLENDID BIRD: Ah! ¿Qué pasó?
My house is gone.
What?
It was there and now it's gone.
Hmm...
Oh, it snowed last night.
¿Qué? What is snow?
Well, it's white, and...
Let's get Chirp to explain.
It's white, for sure.
And cold.
Cold and white.
Let's get Quack to explain.
Snow is white, cold stuff
that comes down in the winter so ducks can make tracks.
See?
I couldn't do that if it weren't for snow.
Sí, entiendo, but it took away my house.
See?
It'll come back in the spring, when the snow melts.
That's a long time from now.
(sighs)
All I ever wanted was a home
that looked like my old home.
NARRATOR: Chirp felt so bad for Splendid Bird
that she decided to surprise her with a new home,
just as soon as she found one.
Nope.
No.
Forget it.
Hmm...
No room.
Aah!
(gasps)
Maybe...
NARRATOR: Chirp needed to measure the tube
to see if it was big enough for Splendid Bird,
and for that, she needed a duck.
Four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine.
I think that's big enough.
Do you remember, Quack?
(laughs) I always remember!
What am I remembering?
Splendid Bird from Paradise's measurements.
I wrote them down, but I can't remember where.
There!
I wrote them on your head so we wouldn't lose them.
Exactly.
I told you I'd remember.
CHIRP: So Splendid Bird is four Quack feet tall, three across
and seven this way, including her tail.
Nine is bigger than seven, right?
I think she's going to fit.
(groaning)
(whistling)
Ta-da!
(screaming)
Here's your new home, Splendid Bird from Paradise!
I decorated it myself.
(muffled yelling)
Why, it's... it's perfect!
¡Gracias!
You're squishing my nose.
Sorry.
Ah, fantastico.
Thank you, Chirp.
I will now go inside.
Watch.
It's so warm and colorful and stamp-y.
¡Socorro!
Help!
Can't... move.
It doesn't fit.
I can't turn around in there.
Then don't turn around.
Just go in and out.
In and out.
Do you need to see it again?
Hmm?
In and out.
In and...
We get it, Quack.
I think you should be able to turn around
inside your own home.
Picky, picky, picky.
I don't understand.
You're one, two, three Quack feet across,
and the tube is one, two, three, four, five across.
Five is more than three, so why don't you fit?
Well, I fit this way...
...but not the turning-around way.
Right.
But how do you measure
a turning-around tail?
Got it!
You just need more tail,
Splendid Bird from Paradise--
and a shorter name--
tails on all your sides.
Then you'll be easy to measure.
(sighs)
See?
A tail here, here, here and here.
Where would she get more tails?
We just find some birds and borrow their tails.
I don't know, Quack.
There must be a simpler way.
What's simpler than that?
How else are you going to measure a turning-around tail?
I mean, really?
Well, hmm...
I know.
Do what you did before, Splendid Bird.
Turn all the way around,
only this time keep your tail on the ground.
Bien, okay.
She made a circle.
Impossible!
(quacks)
How does a bird who's not a circle make a circle?
Ha!
Let's measure it.
Uno, dos, tres,
cuatro, cinco, seis...
Seven, eight, nine, ten, 11, 12.
So your home needs to be
at least 12 Quack feet wide.
I want to try something.
Could you ask before you borrow my feet?
Measure it from here to there.
One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven,
eight, nine, ten, 11, 12.
Doce.
The circle is the same this way and that way.
Good, fine, great.
My feet are going home now.
Bye.
NARRATOR: Chirp soon found another home for Splendid Bird,
one that was big enough in all directions.
¿Estan listos?
Yeah!
Dizzy... whoa, whoa, dizzy duck.
Watch out!
NARRATOR: It's nice to have a home you can turn around in
and play pin-the-tail- on-the-monkey in.
Here we go.
There!
Did I get it?
Perfect!
(all laughing)
