I'm getting really good at doing yo-yo tricks.

Want to see?

Sure!

Wow, that's a good trick, Sally.

If you want to see a really great trick watch and be amazed by Nick the Magician.

(Laughing) Nick!

What's so amazing?

You'll see.

May I borrow that yo-yo please?

(Giggling) Sure.

Watch me make this yo-yo disappear!

First I'll set it on this table.

And now I'll cover it with my magic cloth.

Alakazaamo!

Wow!

But where did the yo-yo go?

A-ha!

I thought you'd never ask.

It's right... here!

Wow!

That was amazing, Nick.

Told ya.

Now, watch this.

Oh, this is going to be good!

For my next trick, I'm going to make my favorite car disappear.

(Clattering) What was that?

Oh, uh, uh, the Amazing Nick will be right back.

Oh, no.

My car fell through a hole in the deck!

Maybe I can get it.

(Grunting) (Sighing) I can't reach it.

(Grunting) That was my favorite car.

Some magician I am.

Whoa!

A magician named Nick?

Is it true what I hear?

For you must be amazing, you made me appear.

Cat!

I don't even know how I did that.

Is the show over?

Yeah, I made my car disappear under the deck.

And now I can't reach it.

A-ha.

I have just the thing.

No, not this.

No, not this.

Ah.

So, which one of those things is the thing that's going to get Nick's car out?

Hm.

Maybe I don't have just the thing.

But I know where we can get just the thing.

Arcade Island.

Cat, isn't an arcade a place with all kinds of games and prizes?

Exactly so!

And one of those things is just the thing Nick needs to get his car back!

All right!

Let's go!

Your mother will not mind at all if you do.

Mom!

MOM: Is that the Amazing Nick I hear calling?

Yes, it's me.

Can we go to Arcade Island with the Cat in the Hat to find something that'll get my car out from under the deck?

MOM: Arcade Island?

Sure.

Have a magical time.

We can go!

We can go!

I know!

I know!

To the Thingamajigger.

Buckle up.

(Honking) Flick the jigamawhizzer!

Isn't this fun?

(Cheering) ♪ Here we go, go, go, go ♪ ♪ On an adventure ♪ ♪ The Thingamajigger is up and away ♪ ♪ Go, go, go, go ♪ ♪ On an adventure ♪ ♪ We're flying with the Cat in the Hat today ♪ If you need a good nudge 'cause your day's hit a bump, Arcade Island's the place to get out of that slump.

(Laughing) There's so many games, Cat.

Can we play them?

CAT: We could.

But I thought Nick would rather win enough tickets to win that.

(Laughing) The clasper-ma-grasper.

It can grab, grip, grasp or snatch anything from anywhere.

I'd be able to grab my car for sure with that.

So, how do we grab enough tickets to get the clasper-ma-grasper?

Playing all these arcade games!

Then, what are we waiting for?

Let the games begin!

Let's start here.

What's this game?

It's the Hungry Harley Heave-Ho.

Harley wants that cantaloupe.

And it's your job to feed it to him.

(Grunting) But we can't reach the cantaloupe.

Is there anything we can use to get to it?

Only this bunch of balls.

Balls aren't for reaching.

They're for throwing or rolling.

I wonder what'll happen if I roll the ball and hit the cantaloupe.

Well, there's only one way to find out.

Here goes!

Ha!

Hm.

It moved a little but not enough to feed Harley.

Let me give it a try with this beach ball.

I hit the cantaloupe just like Nick did but it didn't move at all!

That beach ball is way lighter than the softball.

And the softball moved the cantaloupe a little.

So, maybe we need something heavier than the softball to feed Harley.

An amazing suggestion you've made just now, Nick.

Is there any ball here that might help do the trick?

Uh.

(Gasping) What about that bowling ball?

It'll be heavier than the softball.

(Grunting) NICK: Oh, yeah.

It's really heavy.

(Grunting) Ready?

One, two, three.

(Bells ringing) Yeah, hitting it with the heavier ball means Harley got his dinner.

And you get your tickets.

(Laughing) NICK: Yes!

Is that enough tickets to get the clasper-ma-grasper?

Not quite.

I'm afraid you'll have to win more games.

How about we try our luck at the good old chuck-a-puck!

(Laughing) Are we supposed to get that puck to land on the bullseye, Cat?

CAT: That's the target, Sally.

And here's what you use to do it.

The puck chucker.

Okay.

I'll chuck it and see what happens.

(Laughing) Uh, I guess I didn't slide it hard enough to bump the puck to the bullseye.

Bet I can hit it harder.

Hold on, I have to pluck the puck chucker.

Okay, Sally.

Chuck the puck!

(Grunting) Wow.

You chucked that really hard!

Too hard.

It made the puck go past the bullseye and bounce all the way back here.

So, hitting the puck softly doesn't move it enough, and hitting it hard moves it too much.

So, we need to hit it not too hard and not too soft.

Okay, everything's back in place.

Give it another try.

(Grunting) CAT: Bullseye!

(Bell ringing) Way to go, Sally!

Now can we get the clasper-ma-grasper?

I want to say yes.

But I've got to say no.

Sorry.

We still need a lot more tickets.

Aw, we'll never get enough!

When you've got an arcade full of games to be won, you'll win big with some help from Thing 2 and Thing 1.

(Whistling) (Vocalizing) Ta-da!

Are you two game for winning some tickets?

(Vocalizing in agreement) Wow!

(Laughing) (Vocalizing) (Grunting) (Bell ringing) Uh-oh.

CAT: Those Things just don't know their own strength.

(Crashing) (Vocalizing) How are we ever going to get the Thingamajigger out of there with all those bumper cars in the way?

Hm.

(Gasping) We could drive the bumper cars.

What do you mean?

The bumper cars are blocking the Thingamajigger, right?

Right.

Well, what if we bump the cars to move them out of the way so the Thingamajigger can get out?

I certainly can't knock that reasoning.

Let's give it a go!

(Laughing) Buckle up, everyone!

It's going to be a bumpy ride!

I'm going to bump the first car!

(Laughing) Your turn, Sally!

Okay.

(Laughing) Just a few more to go!

(Laughing) Yeah!

Woo-hoo!

(Laughing) Only one more to go!

(Laughing) Okay, now we just need to bump the Thingamajigger off.

Why don't you do that, Sally?

The bumper cars were your idea.

Thanks, Nick.

Don't mind if I do.

(Gasping) It didn't work.

The Thingamajigger is too heavy.

Hm.

Maybe if we bump the Thingamajigger with two cars at the same time we can move it!

Now, that idea knocks it out of the park!

Okay.

One, two, three!

Nice job!

Good going!

Great idea, Sally.

Two cars were stronger than one.

But we still don't have enough tickets for the clasper-ma-grapser.

It's okay, I don't need it.

You don't?

What about getting your car out?

All these bumping games have given me an amazing idea.

The Amazing Nick will now reveal his new magical car-getting tool.

Alakazaamo!

My yo-yo?

What's so magical about that?

The Amazing Nick is onto a whole new trick.

Right, Cat.

The yo-yo is heavier than my car.

So if I hit my car just right, I can bump it out.

Watch and be amazed as I make my car reappear.

(Laughing) Nick, you are amazing.

Ta-da!

(Cheering) Okay, Sally, here comes the snowman's head!

Oof!

There!

(Laughing) Perfect.

Your snowman looks nicer with a head.

(Giggling) And he'll look even better when we finish him.

We want him to win the best dressed snowman prize at the winter festival.

And we've picked out exactly what our snowman's gonna wear.

This I've gotta see.

It's right over here.

(Grunting) Huh?

What's up, Nick?

They're all stuck in the ice.

(Grunting) How can our snowman be the best dressed if he's not dressed at all?

CAT: Woo-hoo!

(Laughing) (Shivering) An undressed snowman?

He must be cold!

Oh, Cat, you came just in time.

We can't get the snowman's clothes out of the ice.

No clothes, no problem.

But then he can't win the best dressed snowman prize at the winter festival.

Lucky for you, I know a place where we can find help.

Cold Snap Island!

It has everything the well-dressed snowman needs.

Including snow.

Shall we go?

We're already dressed for it.

Your mother will not mind at all if you do.

(Laughing) Mom, can I go with Sally and the Cat in the Hat to Cold Snap Island where they have everything the well-dressed snowman needs?

MOM: Cold Snap Island?

If it's going to help you dress your snowman, I'm cool with that.

We can go!

We can go!

I know!

I know!

To the Thingamajigger!

Buckle up!

(Honking) Flick the jigamawhizzer!

Isn't this fun?

(Laughing) Wow.

This place is perfect for building snowmen!

(Shivering) I know, it's all snow.

Not all snow!

Look!

We could make some amazing snowman faces out of these.

And there's all kind of hats!

Oh, and look at these!

How are we going to decide what our snowman will look best in?

It's always good to start with a clean slate.

What's that mean?

It means we make a brand-new snowman and see what looks best on him!

Everybody, get rolling!

I'm on it!

(Shivering) Yes, the faster you make your snowman, the sooner we can go somewhere warm.

Okay, Cat, you make the bottom part.

Nick, you make the body.

And I'll make the head!

Let's go!

(Grunting) That snowball's a lot bigger than the one you made back home.

That was for the snowman's head, Fish.

This is for the body.

It has to be bigger.

Whoops!

Oh, no!

Uh-oh.

It's also faster.

Runaway snowman!

Hey!

Come back!

Whoa!

Huh?

Wow.

What's this doing here?

Are you okay?

Yep.

And look what I found.

(Gasping) They look like rides!

Let's try them out.

Fish, care to ride on a polar bear?

It's not much of a ride, I'm not going anywhere.

I wonder what makes them go.

The rides all connect to this rod.

So they do.

That's so true.

But how do they work?

I don't know.

Huh?

The pipe is connected to this thing!

Whatever it is.

Looks to me like a water wheel.

A water wheel?

Water makes the wheel go round and round.

See?

Whoa!

Careful, Cat, I don't have my seatbelt on!

(Gasping) You made the polar bear go up and down by moving the wheel!

So, the water wheel makes the rides go!

Wouldn't it be amazing if we could really make them work?

Sure!

Except there's one little problem.

Cat says the wheel needs water to make it go around.

Right.

And there's no water here.

Just snow and ice.

Ice is nice.

(Laughing) It would be nicer, if it was water.

But if there's a water wheel there must be water around here someplace.

We'll just have to find it.

Wait, I thought we were here to dress our snowman.

We will!

Right after we get this ride moving.

Okay!

Let's find some water!

A-ha!

That looks like water.

But it's not.

(Gasping) A waterfall!

That's got to have water!

It should be called an ice fall.

I don't get it.

Why put a water wheel in a place with no water?

It doesn't make sense.

(Cat humming) Maybe we're missing something.

I k-k-k-know what I'm m-m-m-missing.

Heat!

Can't you please f-f-find some water, so we can get on with things and get b-b-b-ack h-h-home?

I'm freezing!

The only water around here is in your bowl.

And there's something weird going on with it.

Weird?

Like what?

It's so c-c-cold.

It's turning hard, that's what!

Pretty soon I'm going to be a fishsicle.

(Shivering) (Gasping) It's turning to ice!

We really need to get something to warm you up, Fish.

But where are we going to find something on Cold Snap Island?

Everything here is cold!

CAT: Ahem.

Not everything!

Let me introduce you to my heater-ma-boodle.

(Honking) If you aim this part at the sun it catches warm rays of sunlight and bounces them where you want the heat to go.

Like so.

(Sizzling) (Gasping) (Sighing) I always wanted a hot tub.

(Giggling) You've got the only water here, Fish.

And it's not enough to make the water wheel work.

Wait.

The water in Fish's bowl was ice just a minute ago because it got so cold.

But when Cat warmed it up with the heater-ma-boodle, it was water again!

So maybe there is lots of water here after all.

Only it got so cold, it turned into ice!

And snow!

I bet if we heat up all this snow with the heater-ma-boodle it'll turn into water too.

Lots and lots of water!

(Laughing) Maybe even enough to make that water wheel go.

We'll need help.

When you need help with melting you know what to do.

Just whistle like this for Thing 1 and Thing 2.

(Whistling) (Vocalizing) (Laughing) (Vocalizing) Thanks.

(Gasping) It's starting to move.

Keep that water coming!

Mm-hmm!

(Vocalizing) (Gasping) It's working!

We did it.

You melted the snow 'til it turned into water.

Now the wheel goes around, like a water wheel otter.

(Laughing) And when the wheel turns it makes this pipe turn.

Which makes these cranks go round and round.

And makes the rides go.

Quick, jump on!

(Cheering) Look at me!

I'm riding a polar bear!

(Panting) (Cheering) (Straining) (Sighing) Aw, is it over already?

This was a lot of fun!

But can we find the clothes for our snowman now?

We already have the perfect clothes, Sally.

We do?

Yep.

Back at home.

Have you forgotten the problem we have with the scarf and mitts?

Nope.

But now I think I know how to fix it.

(Grunting) It's still frozen in the ice.

But it wouldn't be stuck anymore if that ice melted into water.

If only we had our own heater-ma-boodle.

True!

There's nothing like it under the sun.

We don't need anything under the sun, we just need the sun.

The biggest heater-ma-boodle there is.

See!

If we move this bin out of the way and let the sunshine in-- We let the heat in.

Brilliant!

(Sizzling) NICK: Try the scarf now, Sally.

SALLY: It worked!

The ice melted into water!

Let's dress up our snowman!

Nice touch, Nick.

What do you think?

You figured it out.

Oh, hooray.

Oh, hurrah.

You've brought in the bright sunshine and made the ice thaw.

And the thing you've created just fills me with awe.

He is the best dressed snowman that I ever saw.
