y, folks.
Welcome to my corn maze.
Imagine that.
A maze cut out of a field of corn.
How Halloweeny.
Halloweeny enough to find the ooky-makooky closet inside?
Pardon me, sir, but is there a closet in there?
Hmm.
There are lots of twists and turns, but a closet?
A twisty, turny place sounds like a fun place to be.
BOTH: Let's go see, let's go see!
Okay, okay.
Stay close to me, kids.
(Both laughing) NICK & SALLY: Twist and turn, and turn and twist.
(Laughing): Boo!
Isn't this corn maze "amazing"?
(Laughing) (Whistling) Hello.
Can you tell me the way to the ooky-makooky closet?
Is it this way or that?
(Laughing): That's not a person, Cat.
A scarecrow's head is full of straw.
They're for scaring away crows and other birds that eat crops.
Hmm, not very scary.
But then, I'm not a bird.
I'm a cat.
A Cat in the Hat.
And I always know which way to turn.
(Whistling) (Laughing) We're sure to find the ooky-makooky closet just around the next turn.
Uh-oh.
Did I say this turn?
I was... so wrong.
I meant the next one.
That old dog was right.
This is the twistiest, turniest, corny corniest amazing maze ever.
Hello, hello.
Good to see you again.
No, it isn't.
It means we're going in circles.
Which means... Oh, no.
We're lost.
Don't worry.
We may have lost our way, but we've not lost each other.
We'll find a way out.
I sure hope we do, or we'll miss Halloween.
Halloween?
What if we never get out?
The corn's much too high to see over.
When you're lost in a maze and don't know what to do, who better to call than Thing 1 and Thing 2?
(Whistling) (Whimpering) Hello!
Hello!
(Both panting) That whistle means just one thing.
The Cat in the Hat needs your help.
Go, Things, go!
Whoo-hoo!
Yeah!
(Both panting) Ooh.
Hello!
Hello!
What's that?
You're looking for someone big and tall, with whiskers and a hat?
Yeah, yeah!
I won't leave you twisting and turning.
He went in there with two friends.
Didn't come out, though.
(Shuddering) Poor Mom and Dad.
They're going to miss me so much.
SALLY: Cheer up, Nick.
I think we're about to be found.
ALL: Over here!
(Both chattering) Go-go jumpers.
How cleaver.
Awesome!
(Snoring) (Nick and Sally laughing) Hmm?
Golly willickers.
When we jump up high, we can see our way out.
Race you, Sally.
(All chattering) Golly.
Gee whiz.
Wahoo!
Yeah!
Getting lost is no fun.
But getting unlost is fun-tastic.
And when you're frightened, it never hurts to call someone you trust to come and help you out.
Did you folks find what you were looking for?
The ooky-makooky closet is not in the corn maze.
But we're much closer to finding it.
We are?
Most certainly!
(Laughing) Now we know two places it's not.
To the Thingamajigger.
