- I spy Dipsydoodlers flying that way.
(Dipsydoodlers squawking) - [Sally] We're gonna catch up.
- (moans) I'm running out of energy.
- (panting) Me, too!
(pedal clicking) (whimsical music) - I just can't do it anymore.
- (honking) Are we here?
Oh, thank you so much!
(sighing) Oh dear, I'm still a little tired.
(snores) - We need to find some other way to make the Thingamajigger go.
Do you have something that can help, Cat?
- Let me have a look.
How 'bout this?
- A balloon?
(air whooshing) - Hey, what made that balloon fly?
(balloon squeaking) - Hmm, it had air inside when the Cat pulled it out of his hat, but now it's flat and empty.
If I put air in it again, (air whooshing) it flies!
- Maybe pushing the air out makes the balloon fly.
- If we fill it with air 'til it's really, really big, it might have enough energy to push the Thingamajigger.
- Well, there's only one way to find out.
(Sally blowing) (gasps) (Sally blowing) (gasps) I'll never have enough energy to blow it all up.
- When you need lots of air to work hard for you, who better to call then Thing One and Thing Two?
(Cat whistles) (Thing One and Thing Two cheering) Hello things, can you please blow this balloon up until it's really, really big?
(Thing One and Thing Two blowing) Now that's a really, really big balloon.
Thanks things!
Hop back on board everyone.
(gentle music) There's nothing like balloon power.
- (gasps) I see Dipsydoodlers.
We're catching up.
(Dipsydoodlers squawking) - Uh-oh, the balloon needs more air.
(Thing One blows) (Thing Two blowing) We're almost there.
- Keep going things.
