Curious George

Who's to say What's impossible

Well, they forgot This world keeps spinning

And with each new day

I can feel a change in everything

And as the surface breaks, reflections fade

But in some ways, they remain the same

And as my mind begins to spread its wings

There's no stopping curiosity

I want to turn the whole thing upside down

I'll find the things they say just can't be found

I'll share this love I find with everyone

We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs

I don't want this feeling to go away

Who's to say I can't do everything

Well, I can try

And as I roll along I begin to find

Things aren't always just what they seem

I want to turn the whole thing upside down

I'll find the things they say just can't be found

I'll share this love I find with everyone

We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs

This world keeps spinning

And there's no time to waste

Well, it all keeps spinning, spinning round and round

And upside down

Who's to say what's impossible and can't be found

I don't want this feeling to go away

Please don't go away

Please don't go away

Please don't go away

Is this how it's supposed to be

Is this how it's supposed to be

Now, as I was saying, life was a constant struggle for survival.

Australopithecus had no time to enjoy himself,

because around every corner was danger.

- Way to go. - Oh, good one.

It wasn't until an amazing discovery

that man was able to take time and enjoy life.

And why was that?

What made Ogg and Grogg's life so much better?

- A video game? - No.

- The Internet? - No.

- A rocket sled? - A mountain of chocolate.

- Star stickers? - No.

- Look. No, no, that wasn't a real question. - Peanut butter?

That's right.

Fire.

Look at that. Impressive, huh?

Miss Dunlop, why do we have to come to this boring museum every single week?

It's not boring. It's very interesting.

This led to hot dinners.

- Eventually became the microwave. - Three, two, one.

Oh! Oh, no.

Hot. Fire's hot.

Yes. Where was I?

- Hey, is that a real spear? - Can we play with it?

Kids, a museum is a place where we observe. We don't play.

- This stinks. - What else can we do?

- Yeah, this is boring. - Children, be polite.

- Lunchtime! - Yeah, lunch.

Lunchtime? It's only 9:00 a.m.

Buddy system. Stay with your buddies.

Oh, well, each kid has a buddy so they can all keep track of each other.

Everyone needs a partner, right?

Oh, yeah. I'm not following.

Well...

- Lungfish! - Excuse me?

Next Thursday, I'm going to talk to your class about the lungfish,

the closest living relative of the tetrapods.

- It's pretty great. - I look forward to hearing it.

You know, I look forward to all your Thursday lectures.

I wish today was Thursday.

- I mean, I know that it's Thursday. - Don't worry.

- I just meant, when it's not, I wish it was. - It's not a big deal.

Here.

I should go catch up to my lungfish. I mean, class.

Way to go, Maggie. Way to go.

I'll see you next week, Miss Dunlop.

Oh, how embarrassing.

- Ted? - Mr. Bloomsberry.

Walk with me, Ted.

I'm afraid that Ogg and Grogg, all of our friends here,

they're just not bringing in the crowds like they used to.

What do you mean?

It breaks my heart, but I have to sell the museum. We're broke.

Broke? Mr. Bloomsberry, the museum can't close!

I have no choice, Ted. Museum attendance is down.

No one's buying anything from the gift shop.

Even the glow-in-the-dark star stickers?

Even the glow-in-the-dark star stickers.

Man, I love those.

I especially love the Milky Way... Wait!

What will happen to the museum?

- Well, I'm glad you asked. - Junior?

It'll be torn down and a parking lot put in its place,

with high hourly rates and no daily maximums.

Ka-ching!

The world doesn't need another parking lot.

The world needs a place where kids' brains can grow.

Exactly. That's why I'm thinking

they can grow trying to count all the spaces in the new parking lot.

Come on. How fun is that?

- He's not serious, is he? - Well...

It's time, Father. We're not going to get a better offer.

I know. I know.

Wait. What if we did something?

What if we got an amazing new exhibit?

You know, Ted, you need to worry about finding an amazing new job.

- Well, hold on, Junior. - But I was just trying... Oh, great.

Ted, if you have an idea, now is the time to speak up. What exhibit?

Yes, what exhibit?

- It's the... - Yes?

- The famous and... - Yes.

- And rare, of course... - Yes. Yes.

- The incredible... - Come on.

- Spit it out. - Don't be shy, Ted. Come on.

What about the Lost Shrine of Zagawa?

Oh, my goodness.

I'm sorry. "The lost..." You lost me at, "the lost."

It's an ancient idol.

Twenty tons of granite

carved by 1,000 craftsmen over a 100 years.

I had all the charts ready.

I was all set to go to Africa when something happened.

Slips my mind.

Hello, how about the birth of your only son? That would be me.

Yes, then I began another adventure, raising Junior.

Well, now that that's done, you can finally finish what you've started,

- which is bringing home... - Yeah! The Lost Shrine of Zagawa.

You'll put this museum on the map.

- I'll need a team of 10 men. - Oh, at least 10.

It's a four-day hike into the jungle.

You go, girl.

I mean, sir.

We'll be cutting through heavy brush for 12 hours a day.

Look out. Here comes the Bloomsberry Express!

- Yes! Yes! - Next stop archeological fame and fortune!

I'm going to discover the Lost Shrine of Zagawa!

- A little help here. - Hey, watch it!

I forgot something.

I am really, really old.

Can I have the Bloomsberry Express pull into the reality station

and sign here, initial here. Nope, not there.

Wait! I guess I could go.

Did I just say that? I can't do that.

I don't even ride the bus. Maybe they didn't hear me.

I'm sorry, sir. You were saying?

Excellent idea, Ted.

He did hear me.

Him? You've got to be kidding me. Ted is not an explorer.

- He raises a good point. - Nonsense.

With my maps and my journals, a six-year-old could find the shrine.

Thank you, I think.

Come on. Let's get you ready for your big adventure.

Now, Ted, the journal won't take you right to the idol.

- It won't? - No, you have to use your instincts.

- About that, sir, I don't have any. - Don't be silly. It'll be fun.

Sorry, Ted.

But that's as close as you're ever going to get

to the precious Lost Shrine of Zaga-wah-wah-wah...

Why does my father like you best? It's not fair. I've got the ponytail.

Okay, Ted, the trick is to look like you know what you're doing.

Now, where's the door?

Yellow? Six dozen yellow suits?

Tony, what, are you goofy? We can't sell these things.

Hey, me goofy? Forget about it.

The big guy says move them, we move them.

Oh, yeah, sure, but what kind of meatball would buy these?

Excuse me?

I'm here to be professionally outfitted for a jungle expedition.

Showtime.

Good day, mate.

You've stepped into the right place. Isn't that right, Nigel?

I'll say it is, Steve-O. Finally, a real adventurer to suit up.

- So do you like the color yellow? - Yellow?

Yeah, what, are you goofy? Yellow's the new khaki.

- Mate. - Really? Well, okay.

- You've got to be kidding. - Look at that get-up.

Hello, who are you, the six-foot banana?

"The new khaki."

Thank you! Thank you very much!

I look like an idiot.

- Edu. - Yes, sir?

Don't worry the other men, but we're hopelessly lost.

Sir, your book is upside down.

- Oh. Oh, good catch. Carry on. - Thank you, sir.

- Wow. What is it? - That's interesting.

- Look at this. - Beautiful.

Look at the color.

Edu, do you see this?

- Yes, it's... - Exciting! We are so close.

- Edu. - Mr. Ted.

It says here "Zagawa" means enlightenment.

- I know, sir. I live here. - Oh, right.

Did you know the statue we're looking for is a giant monkey?

- Yes, sir. I live here. - Right again.

- Oh, a rhino. - Sir?

- Stand aside, men. - Mr. Ted.

This is a tranquilizer gun. I'm just going to put him to sleep.

That's not a rhino. That's a...
