[Chirping] It’s coming from over there!
It’s a bird!
Adorable!
It’s so tiny.
I wonder where it came from.
That nest!
It must’ve fallen out!
Maybe we can help it get back up there, but... that nest is pretty high.
Can you help me reach it?
Please?
Sure...
This EXTEND block might work.
It’s time to - [in unison] Run the code!
[Bird] [chirp] EXTEND!
I can’t... reach it, Mia!
Looks like that’s as far as you can go.
[Bird] [chirp] Poor birdy.
We’ll have to think of something else.
[squawk] What’s with all the chirping?
Some people are trying to read here.
Evu!
Maybe he can help!
He is technically a bird.
Help with what, bro-bot?
We need to get this bird back up to its nest.
[squawk] Do I look like a flying bird to you?!
[gasp] Flying!
Evu, that’s it!
We’ll teach the little bird to fly!
Can I show it how?
Yes!
There’s got to be steps to flying, just like there’s steps to coding... [Mia] Let’s try FLAP and LOOP.
[giggle] It’s time to- [in unison] Run the code!
[Codie] [efforts] [Bird] [chirp] [Mia] Go birdy!
[Evu] Ah!
[Codie] [efforts] I'm flying!
Boooring.
Call me when robots learn to fly.
I’m not flying, Mia!
And neither is our little bird friend... [sigh] We need to rethink the code!
The flapping part seems to work.
Maybe you just need a running start!
I bet there’s a code for that!
Let’s see, if you RUN and FLAP CONCURRENTLY - CON-CUR-what-ly?
Concurrently.
That’s means at the same time.
If you and the bird RUN and FLAP at the same time, you’ll- Fly?!
Hopefully!
Load the code!
[Mia] RUN... [Mia] CONCURRENT... [Mia] FLAP!
[Mia] And LOOP.
Let’s check the code.
[Mia] You’ll RUN and FLAP CONCURRENTLY... that means at the same time.
[Mia] And then we’ll add a LOOP block, [Mia] so you’ll keep running and flapping over and over!
[Mia] It’s time to- [in unison] Run the code!
[Bird] [chirp] RUN and FLAP... again and again!
[Codie] C’mon!
Fly with me, birdy!
[Evu] GAHH!
[Codie] [efforts] [Bird] [chirp] [Evu] GAHH!
No.
[squawk] [Evu] No, ahhh!
[Codie] [giggles] This is NOT how I saw things working out.
[Evu] Ahh!
This isn’t working, Codie.
Why not?
I dunno... we’re trying, but maybe we can’t solve everything with code, even if we wanted to.
[sigh] We want to help you, we really do!
But this might be something you can figure out on your own.
[Bird] [chirping] Look!
The bird is.. con-current- ly going someplace.
[Mia] It’s... [Mia] It’s... [in unison] FLYING!!
We did it, Codie!
Yes!
[Kids] Go Codie, go!
[Codie] I want to get to the prize.
But I don't know what to do.
Can you help me?
Which code will get me to the prize?
Is it eat, then right?
Or right, then eat?
Let's try it.
Run the code!
- (ding) - Right, eat.
Run the code!
(rumbling) Run the code!
(rumbling) [Kids] Yay!
All right!
[Codie] Mia, these balloons are the wrong kind.
The wrong kind?
They’re all flat.
[laughs] That’s because we haven’t inflated them yet!
Watch!
[blowing] Can I try?
Sure!
INFLATE...
TIE.
And now we... [in unison] RUN THE CODE!
Whoa...Do it again!
Please?
Sure!
We’re gonna need a bunch for the party.
LOOP makes things “do it again”.
It will make your code run over and over again on its own.
So I don’t have to keep hitting your “run” button.
And now we... [in unison] RUN THE CODE!
Whoa, look at all my balloons!
Great job, little bro-bot!
Now we can start giving them out to our party guests.
[Codie] Oooh, pointy.
[Evu] [squawk] And if you haven’t noticed, your first guest - Evu the party-emu - has arrived... [squawk] and I’ve always wanted a balloon!
My balloons?
Ooh!
Ah.
I think I’ll take this nice, big red one...
Or...I suppose I could go for this cheerful yellow one... You can’t keep them all, Codie.
You have to share them!
But, balloons make me happy.
Sharing is caring!
I’LL TAKE THE PURPLE ONE!
I have a bad feeling about this.
Whooooaa!
Uh-oh...
I think this is trouble... [Bird] [squeak] [squawk] Don’t you know I’m a flightless bird?
Let go of the balloons!
No, no, no!
Wait, don’t!
We’re too high!
[Evu] [efforts] There!
At least we won’t go any higher now.
Hmmm...
But how are we gonna get down?
This is all your fault!
SQUAAAAAAAAAWK!
Who told that balloon to POP?!
Pop?
That’s it!
Codie, your party hat’s pointy.
You can use it to pop the balloons!
MY balloons?
But...but... okay.
EXTEND...RETRACT!
[giggles] Do it again!
Again?
Good thing we have the loop block Let's check the code!
[Mia] Extend... [Mia] Retract... [Mia] And loop!
[Mia] It’s time to... RUN THE CODE ALREADY!
Extend... Retract!
Extend... Retract!
Extend... Retract!
Again, again, again!
[Codie] [giggles] [squawk] We’re almost there... [squawk] All I wanted was a balloon... Wha!
[squawk] Thank you, Codie!
I’ve always wanted a balloon!
[laughing] See?
Doesn’t it feel good to share?
Sharing is caring.
[giggles] Yes, Codie!
Let's share again!
Where's the Loop block?
[Mia] [giggles] [Kids] Go Codie, go!
[Codie] I want to get to the prize.
But I don't know what to do.
Can you help me?
Which code will get me to the prize?
Is it closer, then further?
Or further, then closer?
Let's try it.
Run the code!
- (ding) - Further.
(whirring) - (ding) - Closer.
(whirring) Run the code!
- [Kids] Yay!
- We did it!
♪ [Mia] [giggles] [Codie] [giggles] [Velvet] Whoa!
[Codie] [giggles] I love dancing to that song!
Me too!
[yawn] But I guess it’s getting late.
Elephants need their beauty rest... [laugh] Toodle-loo!
Aww, Velvet, do you have to go?
Maybe you could stay, annnd-- We could have a sleep over party!
[Velvet] Did you say PARTY?!
We LOVE parties!
[Velvet] [laugh] Yay!
[in unison] We’re having a sleep over party!
[in unison] We’re having a sleep over party!
[Velvet] Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
[gasp] You know what we should do?
[excited] What?!
Have a fashion show!
Yeah!
[Velvet] [modeling] [Codie] Urrh.
[Codie] Uggmmm.
[Velvet] [modeling] Um, Mia!
There you go, little bot.
Oh, thanks Velvet.
[Codie] [modeling] Ooo, you know what else we could do?
Look up at the stars!
Oh, wow!
Can I have a turn?
[struggling] I can’t reach it.
[chuckle] There you go!
What do you see?
Stars, but... Codie...something wrong?
[sigh] I wish I was bigger like you and Velvet!
Oh...
Guess I should’ve seen that coming.
Little brothers, am I right?
But if my little bro-bot wants to be BIG, I have an idea!
[Mia] We can make you bigger with a GROW block.
Grow?
Really?
Uh-huh!
And now we... [in unison] RUN THE CODE!
Grow!
[Velvet] Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Wow!
This is so cool.
I love it!
Oh!
That’s Codie’s alarm clock.
It means it’s time for us to sleep.
I mean recharge.
[gasp] I can’t fit!
You’re too big!
Oh, I am too big!
Don’t worry, Codie, we’ll figure something out!
You know there’s a code for that!
We just need to rethink it... [Mia] Oh, I know!
[Mia] We’ll use a SHRINK block!
[efforts] Oh, no!
I can’t reach!
[efforts] Now I know how Codie feels.
Mia, I don’t think I like being ‘too big’.
Don’t worry, I got this!
An elephant always knows what to do.
Whooa!
Thank you, Velvet.
Okay!
Let’s check the code.
[Mia] We’ve just replaced the GROW block with the SHRINK block.
[Mia] Now Codie can get back to his regular size!
It’s time to... [Mia] [struggles] [Velvet] RUN THE CODE!
Shrink!
So, how did you like being big?
[sigh] I like being me.
Mm, yes, you’re awesome just the way you are, Codie!
