These are really cool, but so hard to get around!
DAISY: Wait!
Don'’’t touch that!
Or that!
Or that!
Wah!
Why?
Another cave rule.
"You should not touch rock formations "because they can break.
And these took millions of years to grow!"
Oh, man...
I'’’d wouldn'’’t want to break something a million years old!
Uh, right.
Me too.
Heh, yes.
Copy that.
I promise I won'’’t touch anything, but we gotta get moving!
Harold is in here somewhere!
What are these rock formations anyway?
Well, the ones growing up from the ground are called stalagmites.
Stalagmites.
And the ones growing down from the ceiling are called stalactites.
Stalactites.
Got it.
Stalagmites!
Stalactites!
Nope, you mixed them up.
Stalagmite!
Stalactite!
Right, of course... Stalagmites!
Stalactites!
Oh, man, you mixed them up again.
Stalagmite... stalactite...
I can'’’t even hear the difference between the two words.
Hey!
I just had an idea how to remember them.
See stalactites have to hang tight to the ceiling.
And stalagmites grow up from the ground.
Brilliant, Daisy!
Stalagmites!
Ground!
Stalactites!
Tight to ceiling!
BOTH: You got it!
Stalagmite, stalactite.
Stalagmite!
Stalactite!
It'’’s Harold!
I see him!
Hey, Hal!
No exploring alone!
And no running!
Hal!
I'’’m coming for you Harold!
Hal?
Where are you?
I don'’’t hear anything.
Which way did Hal go?
Hey, how goes it?
Well, hello, kind sir.
Have you seen a dog go by?
Nope, can'’’t say that I have, because I'’’ve got no eyes.
No eyes?
But how can you see?
Since there'’’s no light in here, I don'’’t need eyes.
There'’’s a bunch of eyeless creatures like me living in here.
But how do you know where to go and get food and stuff?
Oh, we get along just fine.
We use our other senses to make our way.
So you don'’’t even need flashlights like we do!
Nope!
And to answer your question, I didn'’’t see a dog pass, but I definitely smelled him go by.
Whew!
Your friend went that way.
Oh!
Thank you so much!
(Softly) Onward and yonward!
