00:49If you could learn to work and play And get along with each other
00:54Hey! What a wonderful kind of day
00:56Hey! What a wonderful kind of day
00:59Hey!
01:00Hey, D.W.!
01:03Hey!
01:11D.W. won't let herself have fun unless we do exactly what she wants to do.
01:19Why don't you help Arthur fly the kite? You love kite flying.
01:23Because I didn't want to come to the park. I wanted to go to the movies.
01:29Even if we went to the most exciting place on earth.
01:36There it is! We've done it! We've found the legendary lost continent of Atlantis!
01:43I didn't want to find the lost continents of Atlantis.
01:47Wow! A crowd of Atlanteans is coming out to greet us!
01:52I'm going home!
01:54D.W., you have to steer!
01:56We're crashing!
02:01Whoa!
02:03Ow!
02:04We never go anywhere I want to go!
02:06Oh!
02:11D.W. goes to Washington.
02:18It's a holiday weekend and I don't have to cater any parties.
02:21Let's go somewhere.
02:23Other than Bionic Bunny Playland.
02:28How about Washington, D.C.? We've been learning about government in school.
02:32That's a capital idea.
02:35Oh.
02:37It's a capital idea. Washington's the nation's capital. Get it?
02:42Yeah, I got it the first time.
02:45Let's take a vote. Where's D.W.?
02:52You've got to go to Ponyland. You should go to Ponyland. You really must go to Ponyland.
03:00You'll be greeted and entertained by three or more adorable ponies.
03:06It's like a dream come true.
03:09D.W. got toy on vacation. We get to vote on where to go. Do you hear me?
03:14D.W., do you hear me?
03:16Of course I can hear you. What did you say?
03:18We're deciding where to take a weekend trip.
03:22I vote for Ponyland.
03:24Yuck.
03:27I have to go. It's like a dream come true.
03:32Please?
03:34Remember last time we went to a place D.W. saw on TV?
03:38Come to Santa's Igloo where Santa spends the summer.
03:43Please?
03:49What's it say?
03:51Share a sundae with Santa and his friendly reindeer.
03:57Ho, ho, ho. Didn't you bring me a sundae?
04:03How can you share a sundae with Santa if you don't bring a sundae to Santa?
04:10Okay, so maybe it won't be as great as Santa's Igloo, but I must go to Ponyland.
04:16How would you feel about going to Washington, D.C.?
04:20Ponyland.
04:24There are lots of great things in Washington.
04:27I don't see any ponies.
04:30Washington is where the President lives.
04:33I don't care about the President. I care about ponies.
04:36If you go where Arthur chose this time, you can choose our next trip.
04:40Promise?
04:42Promise.
04:44Okay. Okay, I'll go.
04:46It'll be fun.
04:48Since I made such a sacrifice, maybe you'll buy me a pony?
04:52No.
04:54I could keep it in my room.
04:56No.
04:58I wouldn't ride it in the house.
05:01No!
05:07Pony.
05:12Ponies.
05:15A lucky little girl who owns a pony.
05:19This is going to be a long ride.
05:22Hey, D.W., let's play a game.
05:25Okay, let's name the ponies we pass.
05:28Blaze, Scout, Jerry, Stumpy, Dasher, Dancer, Vixie,
05:33Dasher, Dancer, Vixie.
05:42Look, the White House. Maybe I'll meet the President.
05:46Arthur Reed, Mr. President.
05:49The same Arthur Reed who won the spelling bee?
05:52And who played that great piano solo at the spring recital?
05:55Yeah.
05:57I've always wanted to meet you.
05:59Hey, everybody, it's Arthur Reed.
06:00Arthur.
06:02Come on, Arthur. Good to see you.
06:04Let's park and walk around.
06:06Yeah. Maybe if we walk enough we'll be so tired we won't notice how bored we are.
06:15The Washington Monument observation room is reached by an iron stairway of 898 steps.
06:23We were down there and we looked up here.
06:26Now we're up here and we look down there.
06:28What's the point?
06:32I need your help, Arthur. Can you help us redesign Washington?
06:37Some people don't get the point.
06:48Great job. I especially like what you've done with the Washington Monument.
06:53Go!
06:58Ah! Ah!
07:03And nothing's more popular than your new burger and shake memorial.
07:07Thank you, Arthur. Your country owes you a great debt.
07:12The Library of Congress contains 80 million items in 470 languages.
07:18How many about ponies?
07:21I don't know.
07:24You're fired.
07:26Abraham Lincoln was the 16th president.
07:29He issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1st, 1863.
07:34Boy, look at the size of those feet.
07:37Where'd he ever buy his shoes?
07:39Was he the only giant president?
07:42Lincoln wasn't a giant. The statue is much larger than he was.
07:46Wouldn't you know it. Finally something interesting and it's a fake.
07:50DW, can't you please just try to relax and enjoy what's here?
07:53Okay, Daddy. At least I'll get to see the Statue of Liberty.
07:57Um, that's in New York, honey.
08:01What a rip!
08:03The flag's up. That means the president is home today.
08:07What if we meet him and become friends?
08:13All right!
08:15Hey!
08:19You beat me again, Arthur.
08:21Arthur!
08:23Come on, the tour is starting. It's the last one today.
08:27On the ground floor is a china room, which contains a collection of presidential china...
08:31DW, don't get left behind!
08:34How exciting. Another closed door.
08:37Follow me, please.
08:39We could have stayed home and locked each other out of the bathroom.
08:42It would have looked just like this.
08:45As we move across the south side of this floor...
08:47DW, stop it!
08:48You're going to get us kicked out!
08:51I'm just trying to find the government.
08:54Don't break the rules. I don't want the president mad at us.
08:58During Kennedy's administration, a permanent art collection was assembled for the White House...
09:03I don't like this place. It's full of people who make a lot of rules.
09:07And everybody's afraid of getting in trouble.
09:10In 1948, when Harry Truman was president, the White House was bound to be unsafe for occupancy.
09:19DW?
09:21Where'd she go?
09:23DW!
09:25Oh, no! DW's loose in the White House! We're doomed!
09:30It gives me great pleasure to sign the DW law.
09:34It is now illegal not to own a pony.
09:37Right on, DW!
09:42I hope Jeff's home, please.
09:45I hope Jeff's home, please.
09:48And, uh, the national anthem has been changed to Crazy Bus.
09:53We've got to find her before she wrecks the whole country!
10:00This government is too complicated. No wonder Daddy's always complaining about it.
10:06Her name is DW.
10:08That's it? Initials? You didn't give the kid a whole name?
10:11Uh, well...
10:15Those guys weren't so busy. I bet one of them could help me.
10:21Wow!
10:24Beautiful horse, huh?
10:26Yeah. Do you work here?
10:28I've worked here for a couple of years now.
10:31Then maybe you can help me.
10:33My family got lost. They're with another tour guide.
10:36Come on, follow me. I'll show you the way.
10:38Maybe you can help me. My family got lost. They're with another tour guide.
10:43Come on, follow me. I'll show you the way.
10:46Are there more paintings with horses?
10:49Oh, lots. I'll point them out on the way.
10:54Mommy! Daddy! I saw all the horse pictures!
10:58DW, where were you?
11:00I don't know. A nice tour man brought me back.
11:03This way out, folks.
11:04Bundle recovered. Ducks in a row. Peas in the pod.
11:08What?
11:10We found DW.
11:12Who lost a duck?
11:14There she is! Stop them!
11:17Oh, great!
11:20She probably broke the Constitution or something. Now we're going to jail!
11:26Mom! Dad! It's the...
11:29DW, have you and your family eaten dinner?
11:31The president knows DW?
11:34I just ordered out and there's plenty to go around. Won't you join me?
11:38Sure!
11:44I won the spelling bee and played a piano solo at the spring recital.
11:49Very nice.
11:51I bet if you could vote, you'd vote for him, huh, DW?
11:54No. I'd have to know where he stands on the issues.
11:56I can't vote for someone just because he showed me a few pictures of horses.
12:01Good for you, DW.
12:05I can't wait to tell everyone I met the president.
12:08You can tell them you met two.
12:10Who's the second?
12:12Me! I decided to be president when I grow up.
12:15I have lots of ideas how to run this country.
12:18Oh.
12:20A pony for every family.
12:22The national anthem should be easy to remember.
12:24A pony for every family.
12:26The national anthem should be easier to dance to.
12:28And picture this, National Little Sisters Rule Day.
12:38Sometimes stuff happens and you wonder if it'll turn out good or bad.
12:44Like when it's your turn at bat.
12:46Will you hit a home run or be thrown out at first?
12:49Steady. Steady.
12:52Eye on the ball.
12:54Will your character be serving pizza or mystery meat?
13:04I won.
13:06Now you have to smell my gym socks.
13:09Oh yeah? Smell this.
13:12Sometimes you just have no idea what's going to happen.
13:17Way to go!
13:18Huh?
13:22So far so good.
13:25Arthur B.
13:27Please report to the office immediately.
13:34Arthur's Mystery Envelope
13:43And he didn't say anything else?
13:45No. Mr. Haney asked me to give the envelope to my mom and that's it.
13:50What's it say? Is it sealed?
13:53It's pretty big.
13:55You must really be in trouble.
13:58It might not be so bad, Francine. You never know.
14:01Oh right. Like Mr. Haney sends giant secret envelopes full of good news to your parents.
14:07Ooh!
14:09I bet you flunked Ratburn's big history test.
14:12Binky's right.
14:14Binky's right.
14:16Arthur, you're going to have to go to summer school.
14:22Summer school!
14:41You know what they say, Arthur?
14:44Those who don't learn their history are doomed to repeat it!
14:48Repeat it! Repeat it! Repeat it!
14:51Repeat it!
15:00Well, I don't want to spend all summer doing fun stuff without you.
15:04Hey, what if you accidentally lost it?
15:08You could hide it in the laundry basket.
15:10And your mom will wash it with the laundry.
15:13It'll be too messy to read, but at least you sort of gave it to her.
15:17No. You'll want to get it as far away from your house as possible.
15:21Read the book, and then return the book to the library.
15:29You could drop it into a storm sewer.
15:37It will be discharged into Bear Lake and continue on to the Halonga River.
15:43As a result, the envelope will be carried first through the Panama Canal
15:47to the Pacific Ocean where the elastic current will take it.
15:51Trade winds will eventually guide it to China.
16:03If you tried to lose it, Arthur, you'd be in even bigger trouble for losing it.
16:08And for whatever it is that you did.
16:10But I didn't do anything!
16:14I'll just have to figure it out myself.
16:17Mr. Haney told me the envelope was for Mom.
16:20But he didn't actually say to give it to her.
16:28Oh, sorry, pal.
16:31And he didn't say I had to tell her about it.
16:35He just said it was for Mom.
16:38He just said it was for Mom.
16:46Oh, sorry.
16:49I know. I'll just leave it out.
16:52But I won't say anything. She might not even notice it.
16:55And if she doesn't see it, I won't get in trouble for anything.
17:04What's that?
17:07Nothing!
17:10Um, I mean, nothing.
17:13If it's nothing, then why are you acting so weird?
17:16I'm not acting weird. I'm worried. I mean, I'm nothing. Go away.
17:23Are you worried that someday I'll be too old for birthday presents?
17:27Worried that there really is a boogeyman
17:29and he's just waiting for the first night you forget to check under your bed?
17:33Cut it out!
17:34The principal just gave me this envelope to give to Mom. That's all.
17:37Now leave me alone.
17:40Hmm. What a day.
17:43Guess what?
17:45Arthur's in trouble. Arthur's in...
17:48Hi, honey.
17:52Mom, Arthur's acting weird and he brought home a...
17:55DW, please, stop bickering with Arthur.
17:58I have a few calls to make and I can't hear if you two are constantly fighting.
18:02Hmm.
18:05Oh!
18:07Since when does Pal leave the kitchen table?
18:15Oh!
18:17Where is he?
18:19That's my third try this afternoon.
18:21Where is that man?
18:23Mail!
18:35Oh!
18:40Hello?
18:42Oh, hi, Leah.
18:44No, no, I was expecting a call from Herb.
18:48Arthur!
18:50Did you tell Mom yet about all the trouble you're in?
18:54DW, be quiet.
18:56Please, both of you, I'm on the phone.
18:59Sorry, Leah.
19:00Well, I've been trying to reach him all afternoon.
19:04You saw him at school today?
19:07Well, that's strange.
19:12Well, I needed some paperwork from him to finish his return.
19:16Oh, I've got to run.
19:18Can I call you right back?
19:20Bye.
19:30Arthur, please pass the potatoes.
19:34Arthur?
19:39Isn't there anything else you'd like to give Mom while you're at it?
19:43Oh, yeah.
19:45Thanks for the delicious dinner, Mom.
19:47Ow!
20:01Those karaoke kittens are crazy!
20:06I'm going to bed.
20:31Oh!
20:44Oh!
20:55Oh!
20:56Oh!
21:00Arthur, is that you?
21:04Um, yeah.
21:06Just going back to bed.
21:10Arthur?
21:12What's that noise?
21:14Nothing!
21:26Uh-oh!
21:36What's going on?
21:39Get out of the house! Quick!
21:42It's getting too big!
21:57Didn't you tell Mom yet?
22:00Tell Mom yet?
22:02Mom yet?
22:04What?
22:06I said, didn't you tell Mom yet?
22:09I don't want to miss anything.
22:15It's going to keep bothering me until I get this over with.
22:19Please don't let it be summer school.
22:26Ahem.
22:28Do you have a second, Mom?
22:30For you, Arthur, two seconds.
22:33Um, I was supposed to do something right away when I got home from school today,
22:37but I was worried I might be in trouble, so I didn't do it, and now I'm afraid you're going to get mad.
22:41Oh, slow down, Arthur. What is it? I won't get mad.
22:45Here. This is for you.
22:49Oh, here it is!
22:52Arthur, I've been waiting for this!
22:54You said you wouldn't get mad!
22:57Sorry, I'm not mad, just frustrated. I've been trying to reach Herb all day!
23:02But this is from Mr. Haney!
23:05That's his first name, sweetie.
23:07Oh, Mom!
23:09Hmm? What?
23:11What's in it?
23:13Tax documents.
23:15It has nothing to do with me?
23:17Did you think it was about you?
23:19Of course not!
23:22Even if this was about you, I need to know.
23:25Dad and I can't help you if we don't know you have a problem.
23:29I guess.
23:31Now back to bed, honey. It's late.
23:41So, what's it going to be?
23:43Are you being grounded for a year?
23:45Are you going to have to do all my chores from now on?
23:48Back to bed, you two.
23:50Are you moving into the garage? Is Pal moving into the garage with you?
23:55Do I get your room?
24:20And it comes from the heart.
24:22Oh, believe in yourself.
24:25For that's the place to start.
24:27And I say, hey!
24:29What a wonderful kind of day.
24:32If we could learn to work and play.
24:35And get along with each other.
24:37What a wonderful kind of day.
24:40What a wonderful kind of day.
