00:00Disgusting!
00:06But it... it worked!
00:09My stomach ache is gone!
00:12Now if we could just get rid of Fire's irritating personality...
00:17It's Dawson's doing, really. He insists I never leave home without it.
00:21Huh? And Dawson is...?
00:24The family butler, of course.
00:26Hey, Fire, is that your book bag beeping?
00:29Huh?
00:35Ahem. Maybe you should check later.
00:42Uh-huh, right.
00:45Hmm? Huh? Why?
00:49Is it Dawson beeping a reminder to change baby Kiko's diaper?
00:54Nice try, Eric.
00:56But next time you want to make a cutting remark, don't use a blunt instrument.
01:01Huh? I think she means your brain.
01:04Speaking of brains, geek, how would you like yours?
01:08Scrambled, scattered, or...
01:19Thanks, Fire.
01:20For what? I've been wanting to nail that bully Eric for weeks.
01:24Oh, I just fielded a message from Professor Krupnik.
01:27We need to check it out right away.
01:29Please. My private screening room is at your disposal.
01:38Your disposal is right. This place is a dump.
01:42Shh!
01:47Adventurers! The hacker's building up power for another attack on history.
01:51His target area is the city of Boston in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, April the 18th, 1775.
01:58Ed has the coordinates, but I'm not sure of the hacker's objective.
02:02Go for it, and good luck!
02:09What? Another power failure?
02:12Power is now at maximum for my next assault on history.
02:17Well, my bees, your algorithms are complete.
02:21You know what you must do. Time does not wait.
02:25Now, go!
02:37Transformation complete!
02:42Maybe Gruber forgot to pay the bill.
02:48Professor Gruber! What happened?
02:51That should be obvious to brains as astute as yours.
02:55Power failure it is.
02:57What's not so obvious is what all of you were doing in that supply closet.
03:01Uh, we were on our way to the, uh, library, but when the lights went out, we came in here looking for this.
03:12Very well, then. Follow me. With two lights, we can't possibly go wrong.
03:19Nevin, time's running out.
03:21Have no fear, Kiko. Ed is here.
03:26I think Gruber needs to cool off, don't you? Let us spray you.
03:36What? What's going on?
03:39What's going on?
03:43Looks like a fire, sir. Maybe you should investigate.
03:47Yes, right. Of course.
03:54Stay outside where it's safe until I sound the all clear.
04:00Great work, Ed! You've done it again!
04:02Well, I like to make a splash. Come on, let's get to the lab.
04:09All right, here goes. Set your sights and put your buckles on your shoes for Boston, Massachusetts, April the 18th, 1775.
04:40Mmm, the bracing smell of the sea. Boston, 1775, eh?
04:47App, can you brief us on the local scene?
04:49We're on the brink of revolution. The British colonies we now call the USA are suffering under the jackboot of oppression.
04:56Don't bother. Those soldiers are British regulars.
04:59Yeah, yeah. In the American Revolution, they...
05:02Might even be the same regiment as my great-uncle, General Josiah White.
05:06Paul! Paul! What do you think you're doing?
05:08I'm pretty sure those guys are wearing jackboots. Or maybe it's more of a Cuban heel.
05:12Either way, it's not a good idea to...
05:14Once I introduce myself, I'm sure those friendly fellows will be happy to tell another Brit what's up.
05:22Hey, guys, could I speak with you?
05:24Did you hear that, sir? The only words I've been hearing from them colonials lately is insults or worse.
05:31Good, good.
05:34Corporal, I have to agree.
05:36And since that one looks like another troublemaking son of liberty, the only words he'll get from me are...
05:43You're under arrest.
05:46Hold it right there, rebel scum!
05:48Paul! Follow us before those friendly fellows turn you into shish kebab!
05:54There's more of them.
05:57Let's go!
05:59Let's go!
06:11Wait for me!
06:15In here!
06:17In here!
06:27Where did those sneaky little pests disappear to?
06:31It's no matter. We might as well let them go.
06:34By tonight, once we've clapped that loudmouthed rebel leader Sam Adams and his bandified friend John Hancock in chains...
06:41The rest of the colonial rabble will be as lost as a chicken without its head!
06:48What a couple of unfriendly fellas.
06:52Hey, why do you think the only ship in the harbor is a British man of war?
06:58The rebel colonials! Sons of liberty! Americans!
07:01Call them what you want while they're kicking up a stink because the Brits closed the port after the Boston Tea Party.
07:07Isn't that a little harsh? Just for throwing a party?
07:11This was a bit wilder than one of your end of termers.
07:16The Boston Tea Party was when a group of rebels dressed up as Native Americans stole the tea from the British ships and threw it into the harbor.
07:24Oh, yeah, right. And wasn't there some kind of catchy slogan too? Something like...
07:29Excuse me, but...
07:30Taxation without representation is tyranny!
07:34I hate to say it, sir, but that scrawny little rebel is really making me mad.
07:42We've still got a few minutes before our appointment with history.
07:45I say we cleanse them all in the harbor and be done with it!
07:53Move, move, move!
07:57Nice going, Paul.
07:58If you're not careful, you'll kick the American Revolution off to an early start!
08:12In here!
08:20I think we've lost them!
08:23Paul Revere? Hey, this must be his own shop! Incredible!
08:29I prefer Wedgewood myself, but it's not bad.
08:32No, no, that's not the point.
08:35No, no, that's not the point.
08:36There's an incredibly famous poem about a midnight ride this same guy made to warn two revolutionary leaders.
08:43That the British were coming to arrest them!
08:46Exactly.
08:47On the other hand, I'm afraid these two are after us, courtesy of my big mouth!
09:05He'll be upstairs, in the living quarters.
09:09And that's where he'll stay.
09:13Open in the name of his majesty, the king!
09:21So they weren't trying to arrest us, after all.
09:23Pat, when exactly does Paul Revere make that famous ride?
09:27Of course! Now I get it! He rides tonight!
09:32Not if he's under house arrest!
09:34Which means those soldiers must be...
09:36The viroid twins sent by the hacker to change history by stopping Paul Revere!
09:42If Revere's arrested, then he can't warn the revolutionaries, John Hancock and Sam Adams!
09:48So Hancock and Adams will get captured?
09:51I'm afraid so!
09:52The American Declaration of Independence was signed right here in Massachusetts, by John Hancock!
09:58If he's arrested, there's no signature, no declaration, no...
10:02There's no United States of America!
10:05You got it!
10:07Mr. and Mrs. Revere, I, Lieutenant-Colonel Smythe-Jones of His Majesty's Royal Infantry,
10:14must inform you that Corporal Swill and I have been ordered to take up temporary residence in...
10:21Your extremely humble abode.
10:25Hey, what if we don't want any of the King's freeloading lackeys invading our home?
10:30Paul Jr., keep a civil tongue in your head.
10:34Listen to your mother, pipsqueak!
10:39And keep an eye on that stew! I would hate to see it burn!
10:45It doesn't look like Paul Revere's going anywhere soon, riding or otherwise!
10:49Here comes another patrol! We've got to hide!
10:58I have no choice, Rachel. I have to warn Hancock and Adams.
11:02Forgive me, Mrs. Revere, but your stew is starting to burn!
11:07You'd better close that window, sir. It's chilly out there!
11:10There's nothing we can do until dark. Let's go check on the troops.
11:22Allow me. It's a poor guest who doesn't have his hostess at the table.
11:28Oh, it's you, Mr. and Mrs. Revere.
11:31Allow me. It's a poor guest who doesn't have his hostess at the table.
11:37Hey!
11:38Oops!
11:39Watch what you're doing, you clumsy oaf!
11:42I'm sorry, Mother, but I'm not hungry!
11:45Please forgive the lad, Lieutenant Colonel. His manners are rough.
11:49No matter. His Majesty's troops will soon be teaching all you colonials a lesson you'll never forget.
12:02So, now we know the troops are going by sea.
12:07Huh?
12:08Well, Paul Revere had a warning system with lanterns.
12:11One, if they were coming by land, and two, if they were coming by sea.
12:15The lanterns were hung as warnings to the revolutionaries.
12:18They were hung from the highest point in town.
12:20The lanterns, that is, not the revolutionaries.
12:32Ugh!
12:35Uh, pal?
12:39Shh!
12:44All right, gang. No fiery sages are going to stop Hancock and Adams seeing this.
12:48So, the code was...
12:50One was if the troops were marching the long way round by land, right?
12:54Right. One by land, and two by sea.
12:57Right. So, it's two we need, since they're rowing to the other side.
13:11Good. This ought to tell the Sons of Liberty what to expect.
13:19And now, it's time for that midnight ride!
13:24Right. But first, we need a little diversion.
13:34Oh, it won't be long.
13:36Soon, it will be too late for Mr. Revere to ride anywhere.
13:44Hurry up. We've got to get Paul Revere out of there.
13:47Or the whole signing thing just isn't going to happen.
13:49All set, Ryan.
13:52Hi-ya!
13:59Swill, we need to check on that.
14:08Everyone, get over here!
14:22Come on! There's no time to lose!
14:30Hooray!
14:32It's no use. We'll never catch her.
14:38Swill! Back to the house!
14:44Here!
14:52Whoa!
14:56Whoa! Nice dismount, Mr. Revere.
15:03Run all the way to Lexington, if you can!
15:06After what we put in his drink, he'll be lucky if he can make it to the end of the block.
15:12We better make sure no one else makes that ride, either.
15:22No one so far.
15:24Even if they try it, we'll be riding them down in no time flat.
15:29How true, how true.
15:32This time, my beauties, it looks as though you've done it.
15:41Give up history! You're doomed!
15:51Ah!
16:09That's my horse!
16:11Magnificent animal. Reminds me of my polo pony back home.
16:16I can't ride. Something from dinner. My stomach...
16:22Paul, what about your tea?
16:24Hardly the time for a tea ceremony.
16:26Your fenugreek tea.
16:28Of course. A cup of this will have your stomach right in no time.
16:32There is no time. You're a horseman. You go.
16:37Just because I have a horse doesn't mean I...
16:42Oh, Paul!
16:48Whoa, there!
16:50Look at that!
16:52Good luck!
16:54Hancock and Adams are at Buckman's Tavern!
17:01That's it, Mr. Revere. This will make you feel better in no time.
17:07Whoa!
17:11Whoa!
17:15Whoa!
17:17That must be Revere's replacement! Stop him!
17:29Ah!
17:42You pig!
17:47Look! It's Paul and the Byron twins!
17:52Go, Paul, go!
17:57Time to put an end to this revolution, huh?
18:05Huh?
18:11Huh?
18:12No one say a word. I've got a plan.
18:15Horsey, where'd you go?
18:22Here's one son of liberty who ain't warning no one anytime soon.
18:27Who's there? Can you help me find my horse?
18:41This'll do perfectly. Kiko, throw me that rope in the back.
18:47I can hardly wait to see the son of a pumpkin we've got!
18:54Oh, it's one of those time-traveling kids!
18:59You don't think those bozos in the wagon were his friends, do you?
19:05Easy does it. That's it, old girl. A little farther.
19:09Perfect, Nevin!
19:12Get ready!
19:20It won't be long now!
19:23You're right. It's just beginning.
19:26I'll be right back.
19:29It won't be long now!
19:32You're right. It's just beyond that tree, I imagine.
19:36Now!
19:45Way to go, Nevin!
19:50Hey, guys! Pumpkin pie, anyone?
19:54Actually, Paul, your tea was quite enough.
19:57Mind if I take over from here?
19:59History wouldn't have it any other way.
20:12Ah, gentlemen, before we go,
20:16here are the young friends of liberty I spoke of.
20:19John Hancock and Samuel Adams at your service.
20:23The cause of independence owes you all a debt of gratitude.
20:32Oh, no! Hancock and Adams are won!
20:36Which means history is back on track!
20:40And the master will be furious!
20:45Furious is an understatement.
20:48It wasn't their fault!
20:50We had revere luck, the pie, but...
20:53Silence! Get out of my sight!
21:00Next time I will reprogram the imbeciles.
21:04Next time, history will be mine.
21:13Okay, At, let's head for home.
21:16All right, here goes.
21:20Whoa!
21:39Well?
21:40Okay, John Hancock signed the Declaration of Independence at the bottom
21:45on the 2nd of August, 1776.
21:48And by that act, the United States of America was born!
22:00Well, well, well.
22:03So, you made it to the library after all.
22:08What nonsense are you reading now?
22:14I beg your pardon.
22:16Actually, I was quite fond of this poem myself back when I was a lad.
22:21Listen, my children, and you will hear of the Midnight Ride of Paul Revere.
22:28They don't make poems or heroes the way they used to.
22:32Actually, that poem wasn't quite how it happened.
22:35For a start, it doesn't mention my role in it.
22:37Excuse me?
22:38Sorry, just a malfunctioning game module.
