♪ >> Where, where, where is it?
Where is it?
No.
I just saw it.
Oh, where... ♪♪ [ Beeping ] [ Gasps ] I'm here.
I'm here.
Pearl, is that you?
>> Digit, I'm so glad you remembered our call.
>> Of course I remembered.
>> Did you get the hyperspace data drive?
>> I've got it, but what's it for?
What's going on in Canalia?
I'll tell you when you get here, and please hurry.
♪♪ [ Indistinct conversations ] ♪♪ [ Indistinct conversations ] [ Whistle ] [ Indistinct conversations ] >> This is so cool, traveling on water instead of roads.
>> So what are we doing here, Didge?
>> We have to help my friend, Pearl.
She told me Canalia is in big trouble.
>> Trouble?
I don't know, Didge.
Everyone seems happy to me.
>> Things might not be as good as they look, Inez.
Pearl says there's a problem.
I believe her.
♪♪ We're here.
>> Wow.
The water is kind of low.
>> Looks like someone has been measuring it.
>> So where's Pearl?
>> Digit, over here.
>> There she is.
>> I thought you were coming alone.
>> I brought the Cybersquad.
Whatever the problem is, they can help.
>> I knew you looked familiar.
Matt, Jackie and Inez, right?
>> That's us.
>> So what's up, Pearl?
>> We can't talk out here.
Follow me.
♪♪ [ Doors creak, slam ] ♪♪ >> Wow.
>> Cool.
>> Whoa.
>> What's with all the secrecy?
>> Well, it's about the water.
>> There's a lot of it.
That's for sure.
>> That's what everyone says.
The problem is, we're using too much of it.
>> The water level does look kind of low.
I saw that when we got here.
>> And it's getting lower and lower.
I've been keeping track, but nobody wants to hear about it.
>> Water evaporates all the time.
You sure there's a problem?
>> Positive, and I've built something that will prove I'm right, something that will answer all the questions, a time machine.
>> Whoa!
>> No way!
>> Does this thing actually work?
>> It should once I insert the final part.
Didge?
>> One hyperspace data drive.
>> [ Gasps ] [ Chuckles ] >> What does a time machine have to do with the water problem?
>> Well, it will show everyone what the water level was in years past compared to what it is now and what it will be in the future if we don't make changes.
>> Then they'll have to believe you.
>> Exactly!
Please work.
[ Beeping ] [ Whirring ] >> Yes!
>> Yeah!
>> This is awesome.
>> What are we waiting for?
Let's take a trip down memory lane.
>> Um... what if we don't come back?
>> Well, at least we'll all be together.
>> Matt!
>> I've been working on this for months.
I promise it'll be okay.
♪♪ >> [ Whimpers ] [ Door slams ] >> Ten years ago should give us a good idea what the water level used to be.
>> I can't believe you actually made this.
>> I like to build stuff.
[ Alarm blares ] Here we go!
[ Beeping ] ♪♪ >> Welcome to Canalia 10 years ago.
>> Am I seeing what I'm seeing?
[ People laughing ] >> It really worked.
>> I knew it would!
At least, I was pretty sure it would.
>> Look, the water level is higher.
>> But everyone is using their sprinklers and hoses just like they are in the present.
>> True, but there are a lot more of us in the present than here in the past.
>> And more people using the same amount of water means the water is being used up faster.
>> You got it, Matt, and if we don't change our habits, Canalia could dry up completely.
♪♪ >> Under here.
>> Doesn't the rain help?
>> Sure, but we use way more water than the amount of rain we get.
>> Your time machine is the answer, Pearl.
Once your neighbors see this, they will understand.
>> Okay.
Let's get back to the present so we can save our future.
>> Yeah!
>> All right!
♪♪ [ Slam ] ♪♪ [ Whirring, beeping ] ♪♪ >> Okay.
This time machine is pretty cool.
Does anyone else know about it?
>> Not yet.
I'm keeping it hidden till I'm ready to show everyone.
>> It's true.
A time machine in the hands of you-know-who could do who knows what.
