1
00:00:04.410 --> 00:00:04.948
Discovery Education: The following

2
00:00:05.448 --> 00:00:06.710
presentation is brought to you by Discovery

3
00:00:07.210 --> 00:00:07.837
Education,

4
00:00:08.337 --> 00:00:09.260
leading the world of digital and

5
00:00:09.760 --> 00:00:11.500
video learning.

6
00:00:11.505 --> 00:00:12.545
Discovery Education,

7
00:00:13.450 --> 00:00:16.495
connect to a world of learning.

8
00:00:29.532 --> 00:00:30.432
Kakapupahet: You have interrupted our

9
00:00:30.932 --> 00:00:33.952
sacred game! Explain yourselves!

10
00:00:34.452 --> 00:00:34.922
Fred: You heard him, Joe!

11
00:00:35.422 --> 00:00:36.550
Explain yourself!

12
00:00:36.555 --> 00:00:37.583
Joe: Explain myself?

13
00:00:38.830 --> 00:00:39.520
You?re the one who threw the air ball!

14
00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:40.602
Kakapupahet: I say again!

15
00:00:41.102 --> 00:00:42.522
Reveal your purpose to the divine

16
00:00:43.220 --> 00:00:45.448
lord of Chichen Itza!

17
00:00:45.948 --> 00:00:47.387
Fred: Chicken Pizza?

18
00:00:47.887 --> 00:00:49.592
Sam: No, Chichen Itza!

19
00:00:50.920 --> 00:00:52.383
We just barged into a Mayan Ring Ball game!

20
00:00:52.883 --> 00:00:54.543
We?re in major trouble!

21
00:00:55.430 --> 00:00:56.388
Enough chatter!  Kakapupahet demands

22
00:00:56.888 --> 00:00:58.433
an answer!

23
00:00:58.933 --> 00:01:00.952
Joe: No way! Did he just say

24
00:01:01.452 --> 00:01:03.288
Sam and Fred: Kakapupuhead!

25
00:01:03.788 --> 00:01:04.377
Joe: We knew we were in

26
00:01:04.877 --> 00:01:05.337
a life or death situation,

27
00:01:05.837 --> 00:01:08.255
so that?s how we managed not to laugh;

28
00:01:08.755 --> 00:01:09.640
for like two seconds!

29
00:01:10.140 --> 00:01:11.857
Trio: Hahaha!

30
00:01:12.357 --> 00:01:13.630
Joe: That?s the worst one yet!

31
00:01:13.563 --> 00:01:15.630
Trio: Hahaha!

32
00:01:15.563 --> 00:01:17.655
Kakapupahet: That?s right! Laugh.

33
00:01:18.155 --> 00:01:20.608
It is a good thing to air out the lungs;

34
00:01:21.108 --> 00:01:22.360
before you die!

35
00:01:22.860 --> 00:01:25.663
Sam: Huh?

36
00:01:26.163 --> 00:01:28.168
[Song] Be careful what you wish for!

37
00:01:28.668 --> 00:01:28.703
Go!

38
00:01:29.203 --> 00:01:31.775
There they go,

39
00:01:32.275 --> 00:01:34.993
three boys surfing on the time continuum.

40
00:01:35.493 --> 00:01:38.185
There they go,

41
00:01:38.685 --> 00:01:39.647
Green mist fills the air,

42
00:01:40.147 --> 00:01:41.688
the book can take them anywhere!

43
00:01:54.200 --> 00:01:54.300
Go!

44
00:01:54.697 --> 00:01:57.405
There they go,

45
00:01:57.905 --> 00:01:58.782
three girls warping time

46
00:01:59.282 --> 00:02:00.413
it's 2105.

47
00:02:00.913 --> 00:02:03.708
There they go,

48
00:02:04.208 --> 00:02:04.885
you can catch a ride

49
00:02:05.385 --> 00:02:06.472
with the Time Warp Trio.

50
00:02:06.972 --> 00:02:10.173
Go!

51
00:02:10.673 --> 00:02:21.823
Traveling through history

52
00:02:22.323 --> 00:02:23.743
with the Time Warp Trio.

53
00:02:24.243 --> 00:02:28.142
Go!

54
00:02:28.642 --> 00:02:30.622
Joe: Okay. So before Kaka, whatever,

55
00:02:31.122 --> 00:02:32.670
told us his game was sacred,

56
00:02:33.170 --> 00:02:35.438
we were playing our own sacred game,

57
00:02:35.938 --> 00:02:36.238
called

58
00:02:36.738 --> 00:02:38.767
Fred: H O R S E

59
00:02:39.267 --> 00:02:41.130
Joe: We know how to spell horse, Fred.

60
00:02:41.630 --> 00:02:42.203
Fred: You may know how to spell,

61
00:02:42.703 --> 00:02:45.128
but you sure don?t know how to shoot.

62
00:02:45.628 --> 00:02:47.398
Fred: Hello? Earth to Sam!

63
00:02:47.898 --> 00:02:48.613
You?re doodling on the court.

64
00:02:49.113 --> 00:02:50.862
Sam: I?m not doodling! I?m keeping score!

65
00:02:51.362 --> 00:02:52.130
In Mayan.

66
00:02:52.513 --> 00:02:53.767
Fred: Oh, Mayan. Of course!

67
00:02:54.267 --> 00:02:57.127
Don?t let me disturb your work.

68
00:02:57.627 --> 00:02:58.607
Sam? That was a joke.

69
00:02:59.107 --> 00:02:59.703
Sam: Hey! Did you know that the Maya

70
00:03:00.203 --> 00:03:00.935
only needed three symbols

71
00:03:01.435 --> 00:03:02.232
for all their numbers?

72
00:03:02.732 --> 00:03:03.807
A dot, a line, and a

73
00:03:04.307 --> 00:03:05.190
Fred: Fine! Don?t move!

74
00:03:05.690 --> 00:03:06.893
I?ll just do my over the dorkus,

75
00:03:07.393 --> 00:03:09.530
one bounce off the backboard, shot.

76
00:03:09.553 --> 00:03:09.747
Sam: Except they all

77
00:03:10.247 --> 00:03:10.478
Hey!

78
00:03:10.978 --> 00:03:12.287
Ow!

79
00:03:12.787 --> 00:03:13.802
Joe: Nice! You should?ve called it an

80
00:03:14.302 --> 00:03:16.278
under the net, hit the backpack shot.

81
00:03:16.778 --> 00:03:17.758
What?

82
00:03:18.258 --> 00:03:18.672
Aah!

83
00:03:19.172 --> 00:03:19.847
Quick! Maybe if you make a shot,

84
00:03:20.347 --> 00:03:21.243
it?ll reverse the reaction!

85
00:03:21.743 --> 00:03:23.690
Fred: Got it!

86
00:03:24.190 --> 00:03:27.105
Trio: No!

87
00:03:27.605 --> 00:03:28.665
Joe: So yeah, the book could?ve sent us

88
00:03:29.165 --> 00:03:30.100
to a Knicks-Lakers game,

89
00:03:30.510 --> 00:03:30.928
but no,

90
00:03:31.428 --> 00:03:32.528
it had to send us to

91
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:33.442
Kakapupahet: The battle between

92
00:03:33.942 --> 00:03:34.688
day and night!

93
00:03:35.188 --> 00:03:37.658
That is the game you have disrupted!

94
00:03:38.158 --> 00:03:38.408
Kill them!

95
00:03:38.908 --> 00:03:39.137
Sam: Wait, wait!

96
00:03:39.637 --> 00:03:41.327
Is that the game you play on

97
00:03:41.827 --> 00:03:42.297
the equinox?

98
00:03:42.797 --> 00:03:43.952
When day and night are the same length?

99
00:03:44.452 --> 00:03:45.187
Mayan 1: Do you have knowledge

100
00:03:45.687 --> 00:03:46.568
of the calendar?

101
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:47.817
Sam: Enough to know that if today is

102
00:03:48.317 --> 00:03:49.730
March 19, like it is back home,

103
00:03:50.230 --> 00:03:51.750
you?re playing two days early.

104
00:03:52.250 --> 00:03:53.648
Mayan 1: But my lord,

105
00:03:54.148 --> 00:03:56.790
You said today was the day for the game.

106
00:03:57.290 --> 00:03:58.337
You insisted that we play,

107
00:03:58.837 --> 00:04:01.538
even though the king has not returned from

108
00:04:02.380 --> 00:04:02.313
Kakapupahet: Silence!

109
00:04:02.813 --> 00:04:04.900
Are you going to listen to three whining,

110
00:04:04.590 --> 00:04:06.745
sniveling, snot-nosed boys?

111
00:04:07.245 --> 00:04:08.970
Mayan 1: But my lord,

112
00:04:08.597 --> 00:04:09.610
if they know of the equinox,

113
00:04:10.110 --> 00:04:13.138
they must be royal astronomers.

114
00:04:13.638 --> 00:04:15.225
Kakapupahet: Perhaps you?re right!

115
00:04:15.725 --> 00:04:17.383
Do you know how to read the calendar?

116
00:04:17.883 --> 00:04:19.525
Joe: Uh, calendar, comics, cereal boxes.

117
00:04:20.250 --> 00:04:20.888
You name it, we can read it!

118
00:04:21.388 --> 00:04:23.288
In fact, it was a book with a blue cover

119
00:04:23.788 --> 00:04:26.457
that brought us here.

120
00:04:26.957 --> 00:04:27.385
Kakapupahet: If you are not only

121
00:04:27.885 --> 00:04:29.313
astronomers, but scribes,

122
00:04:29.813 --> 00:04:30.685
then we are deeply honored

123
00:04:31.185 --> 00:04:31.970
by your presence.

124
00:04:32.470 --> 00:04:34.640
We will make sure you stay alive.

125
00:04:35.140 --> 00:04:35.640
Fred: Now you?re talking!

126
00:04:36.140 --> 00:04:38.802
Kakapupahet: As prisoners of war!

127
00:04:39.302 --> 00:04:40.547
We will use your special blood to

128
00:04:41.470 --> 00:04:42.610
invoke the gods.

129
00:04:43.110 --> 00:04:44.402
A cup of it for weddings,

130
00:04:44.902 --> 00:04:47.500
a bucket for the holidays.

131
00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:48.452
Sam: Oh, great!

132
00:04:48.952 --> 00:04:49.243
Kakapupahet: Yes!

133
00:04:49.743 --> 00:04:52.315
You have a glorious life ahead of you.

134
00:04:52.815 --> 00:04:55.115
Take them away!

135
00:04:55.615 --> 00:04:59.410
Crowd: Whoa!

136
00:04:59.910 --> 00:05:00.420
Fred: Hey!

137
00:05:00.542 --> 00:05:04.947
I was wondering what happened to my shot!

138
00:05:05.447 --> 00:05:06.907
[Applause]

139
00:05:07.407 --> 00:05:08.380
Joe: Wow! A thousand year long,

140
00:05:08.880 --> 00:05:10.218
across the continent, bank shot!

141
00:05:10.718 --> 00:05:12.843
That?s definitely a three-pointer!

142
00:05:13.343 --> 00:05:23.500
[Applause]

143
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:25.750
Mayan 2: Is that your ball?

144
00:05:25.575 --> 00:05:26.932
Joe: Yeah. See, we?re not so much

145
00:05:27.432 --> 00:05:28.610
scribes and astronomers as

146
00:05:29.110 --> 00:05:30.315
Fred: Famous ball players!

147
00:05:30.815 --> 00:05:31.995
Joe: Here to demonstrate new shots

148
00:05:32.495 --> 00:05:34.675
in the battle between day and night!

149
00:05:35.175 --> 00:05:37.178
[Applause]

150
00:05:37.678 --> 00:05:38.235
Fred: Set me up for an alley-oop!

151
00:05:38.735 --> 00:05:40.932
Sam: Haven?t you noticed that the uh,

152
00:05:41.432 --> 00:05:43.540
the hoop is sideways?

153
00:05:44.400 --> 00:05:44.523
Joe: Keep it up, guys!

154
00:05:45.230 --> 00:05:45.587
If we win over the crowd,

155
00:05:46.870 --> 00:05:47.708
there?s no way Kaka can drain our blood.

156
00:05:48.208 --> 00:05:53.338
[Applause]

157
00:05:53.838 --> 00:05:54.915
Kakapupahet: So, I cannot imprison

158
00:05:55.415 --> 00:05:57.350
such talented ball players.

159
00:05:57.535 --> 00:06:00.980
You are destined for better things, it seems.

160
00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:03.150
Follow me!

161
00:06:14.282 --> 00:06:14.885
Mayan 1: That?s what happens to

162
00:06:15.385 --> 00:06:18.470
the captains of the losing team.

163
00:06:18.970 --> 00:06:19.485
Sam: Ugh. Talk about

164
00:06:19.985 --> 00:06:23.350
sudden-death overtime!

165
00:06:23.850 --> 00:06:28.270
Girl: Nice shot!

166
00:06:28.770 --> 00:06:36.222
[Applause]

167
00:06:36.722 --> 00:06:37.213
Joe: Can you believe it?

168
00:06:37.713 --> 00:06:40.470
A time warp where we?re actually heroes!

169
00:06:40.547 --> 00:06:41.182
Kakapupahet: Heroes who are about

170
00:06:41.682 --> 00:06:43.655
to receive their just reward.

171
00:06:44.155 --> 00:06:44.582
This way!

172
00:06:45.820 --> 00:06:50.855
[Applause]

173
00:06:51.355 --> 00:06:53.807
Fred: Ugh, ugh. Forget the reward!

174
00:06:54.307 --> 00:06:55.390
I?ll settle for a soda.

175
00:06:55.890 --> 00:06:58.183
Joe: Nothing like climbing a hundred

176
00:06:58.683 --> 00:07:01.127
steps to get a reward.

177
00:07:01.627 --> 00:07:02.855
Sam: No. It?s ninety one, actually.

178
00:07:03.355 --> 00:07:05.280
See? It?s a calendar thing.

179
00:07:05.780 --> 00:07:08.863
Four sides, times ninety one, equals 364.

180
00:07:09.363 --> 00:07:10.550
So, the last step is

181
00:07:10.555 --> 00:07:14.630
Joe: The number of days in the year? Cool!

182
00:07:14.563 --> 00:07:15.983
Kakapupahet: Citizens of Chichen Itza,

183
00:07:16.483 --> 00:07:17.558
Fred: Get him! Who?s he talking to?

184
00:07:18.580 --> 00:07:19.215
Sam: Them! These pyramids were built

185
00:07:19.715 --> 00:07:21.215
so they can hear everything he?s saying.

186
00:07:21.715 --> 00:07:22.405
Fred: No way!

187
00:07:22.905 --> 00:07:23.200
Sam: Yes way!

188
00:07:23.700 --> 00:07:24.777
Fred: So they can hear what I?m saying?

189
00:07:25.277 --> 00:07:25.583
No way!

190
00:07:26.830 --> 00:07:26.320
Sam: Yes way!

191
00:07:26.820 --> 00:07:27.120
Fred: No way!

192
00:07:27.620 --> 00:07:29.495
[Yes way!]

193
00:07:29.995 --> 00:07:31.802
Kakapupahet: As I was saying,

194
00:07:32.302 --> 00:07:33.582
three strangers have come to us

195
00:07:34.820 --> 00:07:35.718
like an unexplained star.

196
00:07:36.218 --> 00:07:36.775
Joe: Sam, Fred, look!

197
00:07:37.275 --> 00:07:37.590
Sam: Is that our book?

198
00:07:38.900 --> 00:07:41.232
Joe: It must be our reward.

199
00:07:41.732 --> 00:07:44.967
Okay, green mist! Take us away!

200
00:07:45.467 --> 00:07:48.775
Joe: It?s not working! Why isn?t it working?

201
00:07:49.275 --> 00:07:50.550
Kakapupahet: It is written that three

202
00:07:50.555 --> 00:07:52.982
strange ball players will come.

203
00:07:53.482 --> 00:07:54.960
And here it says, they will be

204
00:07:55.460 --> 00:07:58.767
a perfect sacrifice for the best harvest ever.

205
00:07:59.267 --> 00:07:59.367
Sam: What?

206
00:07:59.763 --> 00:07:59.880
Joe: He?s making that up!

207
00:08:00.380 --> 00:08:01.520
Fred: That?s our book.

208
00:08:02.200 --> 00:08:05.700
See? This clearly says four snakes

209
00:08:05.507 --> 00:08:07.798
ate hats on the monkey table.

210
00:08:08.298 --> 00:08:09.135
Nothing about sacrifices.

211
00:08:09.635 --> 00:08:09.870
Joe: What?

212
00:08:10.370 --> 00:08:11.407
It?s written in Mayan!

213
00:08:11.907 --> 00:08:14.470
Bring the ceremonial blade

214
00:08:14.547 --> 00:08:15.273
Sam: Oh, no, no!

215
00:08:15.773 --> 00:08:17.775
But we?re not worthy enough!

216
00:08:18.275 --> 00:08:19.375
We could mess up your harvest!

217
00:08:19.875 --> 00:08:20.970
Fred: Yeah!

218
00:08:20.597 --> 00:08:23.700
I haven?t brushed my teeth for a week!

219
00:08:23.507 --> 00:08:24.913
Kakapupahet: All Kukulcan feathered

220
00:08:25.413 --> 00:08:28.398
serpents to whom we dedicate this

221
00:08:28.898 --> 00:08:29.990
Mayan 1: Hey, lord?

222
00:08:30.490 --> 00:08:32.257
The king is our connection to the gods.

223
00:08:32.757 --> 00:08:33.672
Until he returns,

224
00:08:34.172 --> 00:08:35.657
I really don?t think these boys

225
00:08:36.157 --> 00:08:38.248
should be sacrificed.

226
00:08:38.748 --> 00:08:41.272
Kakapupahet: Fine. We will let the gods

227
00:08:41.772 --> 00:08:45.215
decide if they live or die.

228
00:08:48.965 --> 00:08:52.230
Day becomes night. Night is the jaguar.

229
00:08:52.523 --> 00:08:54.615
The jaguar will decide their fate.

230
00:08:55.115 --> 00:08:56.632
Sam: What does he mean night is the jaguar?

231
00:08:57.132 --> 00:08:58.400
That?s a metaphor, right?

232
00:08:58.540 --> 00:08:59.977
Joe: Right! That?s a metaphor for

233
00:09:00.477 --> 00:09:00.715
when night comes,

234
00:09:01.215 --> 00:09:02.575
we?ll be eaten by a jaguar!

235
00:09:03.750 --> 00:09:04.120
Kakapupahet: At first return of the sun,

236
00:09:04.620 --> 00:09:06.377
if this trio is still alive,

237
00:09:06.877 --> 00:09:08.455
we?ll know the Jaguar god favors

238
00:09:08.955 --> 00:09:10.832
the king  instead of me.

239
00:09:11.332 --> 00:09:13.152
If so, the boys will be free.

240
00:09:13.652 --> 00:09:15.345
Fred: Hey! We might get out of this alive!

241
00:09:15.845 --> 00:09:16.545
Kakapupahet: Not a chance!

242
00:09:17.450 --> 00:09:18.970
I?ll be here before sunrise.

243
00:09:18.597 --> 00:09:20.950
If the jaguar hasn?t done the job,

244
00:09:20.595 --> 00:09:23.495
I will!

245
00:09:23.995 --> 00:09:25.383
Fred: Killed by a guy named Kaka?

246
00:09:25.883 --> 00:09:26.737
No thanks!

247
00:09:27.237 --> 00:09:29.770
Joe: You mean, you?d rather get eaten?

248
00:09:29.577 --> 00:09:30.472
Fred: I don?t know. Hey Sam?

249
00:09:30.972 --> 00:09:32.272
If you were tied to a tree,

250
00:09:32.772 --> 00:09:34.280
about to die, and you had a choice

251
00:09:34.780 --> 00:09:35.560
between being eaten by

252
00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:37.840
Sam: Hello! We are tied to a tree!

253
00:09:38.340 --> 00:09:39.720
We are about to die!

254
00:09:40.220 --> 00:09:42.632
Joe, don?t you know any rope tricks?

255
00:09:43.132 --> 00:09:45.527
Joe: Sorry. They all involve trick rope.

256
00:09:46.270 --> 00:09:47.630
Sam: Aah, aah, ahh! Did you hear that?

257
00:09:47.563 --> 00:09:49.600
Oh, man! A tail! I saw a tail!

258
00:09:50.100 --> 00:09:51.432
Fred: Joe, before I die, you know that

259
00:09:51.932 --> 00:09:52.743
Yankee?s glove you lost?

260
00:09:53.243 --> 00:09:55.232
You didn?t lose it! I have it!

261
00:09:55.732 --> 00:09:56.200
Joe: You now what, Fred?

262
00:09:56.502 --> 00:09:58.280
I don?t really care.

263
00:09:58.528 --> 00:10:03.587
Trio: Aah!

264
00:10:04.870 --> 00:10:05.505
Chun: I have watched many Ring Ball games,

265
00:10:06.500 --> 00:10:07.890
and I have never seen a shot like that!

266
00:10:08.390 --> 00:10:08.850
How did you do it?

267
00:10:09.350 --> 00:10:10.202
Fred: Sam, there?s no such thing as

268
00:10:10.702 --> 00:10:12.130
a talking jaguar, right?

269
00:10:12.630 --> 00:10:13.265
Chun: My name is Chun.

270
00:10:13.765 --> 00:10:15.362
We must hurry. My uncle will kill me if

271
00:10:15.862 --> 00:10:16.958
he catches me doing this.

272
00:10:17.458 --> 00:10:18.850
Joe: Why? Who?s your uncle?

273
00:10:18.585 --> 00:10:19.247
Chun: Kakapupahet,

274
00:10:19.747 --> 00:10:21.663
and he?ll come looking for you unless

275
00:10:22.163 --> 00:10:24.432
we make him think a jaguar got here first.

276
00:10:24.932 --> 00:10:25.967
Fred: Let me see that knife.

277
00:10:32.332 --> 00:10:33.575
Alright! That ought to do it!

278
00:10:34.750 --> 00:10:35.162
Joe: I like your fake jaguar prints.

279
00:10:35.662 --> 00:10:35.998
Chun: Those are real.

280
00:10:36.498 --> 00:10:37.382
If my uncle doesn?t get us,

281
00:10:37.882 --> 00:10:42.575
The jaguars really will. Come on!

282
00:10:43.750 --> 00:10:44.470
It was just like you said, Mama.

283
00:10:44.547 --> 00:10:47.607
Uncle tied them up at the old jaguar tree.

284
00:10:48.107 --> 00:10:48.895
Mama: I?m sorry my brother-in-law

285
00:10:49.395 --> 00:10:50.575
has caused you so much trouble.

286
00:10:51.750 --> 00:10:53.222
Please sit down. You must be hungry.

287
00:10:53.722 --> 00:10:54.533
Fred: Yeah. Breakfast feels like

288
00:10:55.330 --> 00:10:57.678
a thousand years ago.

289
00:10:58.178 --> 00:11:00.192
Mama: Tortillas, corn, beans, tomatoes.

290
00:11:00.692 --> 00:11:01.515
Fred: Oh, yum!

291
00:11:02.150 --> 00:11:03.227
Chun: And dog!

292
00:11:03.727 --> 00:11:05.680
Mama: No. Tonight I?m afraid

293
00:11:05.568 --> 00:11:06.380
we only have chicken.

294
00:11:06.880 --> 00:11:10.520
Joe: Mmm.

295
00:11:10.552 --> 00:11:13.818
Whatever this is, it smells really great!

296
00:11:14.318 --> 00:11:15.362
Mama: Chocolate, vanilla, and honey.

297
00:11:15.862 --> 00:11:18.200
It?s a special drink for our honored guests.

298
00:11:18.502 --> 00:11:19.138
Sam: No dog?

299
00:11:19.638 --> 00:11:20.580
Fred: What are you drawing?

300
00:11:20.558 --> 00:11:22.180
Chun: I?m drawing you, of course.

301
00:11:22.518 --> 00:11:23.732
My friends and I make drawings of

302
00:11:24.232 --> 00:11:25.203
our favorite Ring Ball players.

303
00:11:25.703 --> 00:11:26.540
Then, we trade them with each other.

304
00:11:27.400 --> 00:11:27.338
Fred: No way!

305
00:11:27.838 --> 00:11:29.180
I?ve got Michael Jordan?s rookie card.

306
00:11:29.518 --> 00:11:30.147
We should swap sometime.

307
00:11:30.647 --> 00:11:31.722
Joe: Wow! They can?t use their hands,

308
00:11:32.222 --> 00:11:32.730
but they still have to get the ball

309
00:11:33.230 --> 00:11:34.292
through the hoop?

310
00:11:34.792 --> 00:11:35.138
Chun: And, if you play

311
00:11:35.638 --> 00:11:36.275
Chichen Itza rules,

312
00:11:36.775 --> 00:11:38.682
you can?t use your feet, either.

313
00:11:39.182 --> 00:11:39.812
Joe: Who?s this guy?

314
00:11:40.312 --> 00:11:40.692
Chun: My father.

315
00:11:41.192 --> 00:11:42.852
He was the best player in the city.

316
00:11:43.352 --> 00:11:44.555
My father was a hero;

317
00:11:45.550 --> 00:11:46.715
one of the only players who could

318
00:11:47.215 --> 00:11:48.705
get the ball through the serpent ring.

319
00:11:49.205 --> 00:11:50.610
But Kakapupahet, my father?s brother,

320
00:11:51.110 --> 00:11:51.818
was jealous.

321
00:11:52.318 --> 00:11:53.418
So, he told the King that

322
00:11:53.918 --> 00:11:55.110
the feathered serpent, Kukulcan,

323
00:11:55.610 --> 00:11:57.162
came to him in a dream

324
00:11:57.662 --> 00:12:00.300
and said my father?s team would be defeated.

325
00:12:00.503 --> 00:12:00.907
Then, he made sure that

326
00:12:01.407 --> 00:12:05.762
his dream would come true.

327
00:12:06.262 --> 00:12:07.820
Because he was captain of the losing team,

328
00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:09.802
my father was put to death,

329
00:12:10.302 --> 00:12:10.947
while my uncle was rewarded

330
00:12:11.447 --> 00:12:12.352
for his premonition.

331
00:12:12.852 --> 00:12:14.403
After that, Kakapupahet tried to force

332
00:12:14.903 --> 00:12:15.995
my mother to marry him.

333
00:12:16.495 --> 00:12:18.595
She refused, and we were sent away.

334
00:12:19.950 --> 00:12:20.107
Fred: I knew that guy was a jerk!

335
00:12:20.607 --> 00:12:21.435
Joe: A jerk who?s got the book.

336
00:12:21.935 --> 00:12:22.218
Sam: Yeah.

337
00:12:22.718 --> 00:12:23.618
And now that we?re officially dead,

338
00:12:24.118 --> 00:12:24.995
we?ll never get it back.

339
00:12:25.495 --> 00:12:26.355
We?re stuck here forever.

340
00:12:26.855 --> 00:12:27.323
Mama: Don?t worry.

341
00:12:27.823 --> 00:12:29.323
You can stay with us as long as you?d like.

342
00:12:29.823 --> 00:12:29.995
Chun: Yeah!

343
00:12:30.495 --> 00:12:30.778
And tomorrow,

344
00:12:31.278 --> 00:12:32.363
I?ll show you all of the fun things

345
00:12:32.863 --> 00:12:35.268
we do around here. Okay?

346
00:12:35.768 --> 00:12:41.843
[Snoring]

347
00:12:42.343 --> 00:12:43.995
Chun: Time to rise!

348
00:12:44.495 --> 00:12:44.955
Sam: Rise?

349
00:12:45.455 --> 00:12:46.850
[Yawn]

350
00:12:47.350 --> 00:12:48.218
But it?s the middle of the night.

351
00:12:48.718 --> 00:12:48.970
Chun: We have to start work

352
00:12:49.470 --> 00:12:54.348
before the sun gets too hot. Come on!

353
00:12:54.848 --> 00:12:56.203
Today, we have to gather pumpkins

354
00:12:56.703 --> 00:12:57.738
for the task collector.

355
00:12:58.238 --> 00:12:59.923
I told you we?d have fun!

356
00:13:00.423 --> 00:13:02.730
Fred: Yeah! It?s a total riot!

357
00:13:03.230 --> 00:13:04.378
Joe: Argh!

358
00:13:04.878 --> 00:13:05.370
Fred: Hey, Chun!

359
00:13:05.870 --> 00:13:06.378
Why don?t you put some wheels

360
00:13:06.878 --> 00:13:07.443
on these things?

361
00:13:07.943 --> 00:13:08.965
Chun: Wheels? I don?t think they would

362
00:13:09.465 --> 00:13:10.120
work out here!

363
00:13:10.512 --> 00:13:12.428
Fred: Really? Ugh.

364
00:13:12.928 --> 00:13:14.350
Because it sure feels like this thing

365
00:13:14.535 --> 00:13:15.675
is getting heavier and heavier.

366
00:13:16.175 --> 00:13:16.427
Sam: Are you telling me that

367
00:13:16.927 --> 00:13:17.492
the Maya came up with

368
00:13:17.992 --> 00:13:19.243
the most accurate calendar ever,

369
00:13:19.743 --> 00:13:20.195
invented zero,

370
00:13:20.695 --> 00:13:22.643
built observatories to plot the stars,

371
00:13:23.143 --> 00:13:25.287
but didn?t use wheels?

372
00:13:51.928 --> 00:13:54.948
Fred: Ugh. That was some day of work!

373
00:13:55.448 --> 00:13:56.663
Thank goodness the sun is setting.

374
00:13:57.163 --> 00:13:58.357
Chun: That?s the sunrise!

375
00:13:58.857 --> 00:14:02.420
Our day is just beginning.

376
00:14:03.300 --> 00:14:04.800
Mama: The news from the city is that

377
00:14:04.580 --> 00:14:05.282
the king is bestowing another title

378
00:14:05.782 --> 00:14:07.872
on Kakapupahet.

379
00:14:08.372 --> 00:14:10.147
His power will soon be unrivaled.

380
00:14:10.647 --> 00:14:11.112
Sam: Oh, man!

381
00:14:11.612 --> 00:14:12.463
We?re never going to get the book!

382
00:14:12.963 --> 00:14:14.380
We?re going to have to stay here forever

383
00:14:14.538 --> 00:14:15.528
and hull pumpkins.

384
00:14:16.280 --> 00:14:16.443
I mean, no offense,

385
00:14:16.943 --> 00:14:19.137
but that?s not what I picked on career day.

386
00:14:19.637 --> 00:14:20.418
Mama: It was in a pumpkin patch

387
00:14:20.918 --> 00:14:22.592
like this one that the ball playing twins

388
00:14:23.920 --> 00:14:24.215
began their comeback.

389
00:14:24.715 --> 00:14:25.185
Joe: The who?

390
00:14:25.685 --> 00:14:26.632
Mama: Back near the beginning of the world,

391
00:14:27.132 --> 00:14:29.185
there were twin brothers who were so good

392
00:14:29.685 --> 00:14:31.503
at Ring Ball that the lords of the underworld

393
00:14:32.300 --> 00:14:33.120
became jealous

394
00:14:33.620 --> 00:14:35.743
and tried to have them killed.

395
00:14:36.243 --> 00:14:37.520
They succeeded in chopping off the heads

396
00:14:38.200 --> 00:14:41.375
of one of the twins, but not for long.

397
00:14:41.875 --> 00:14:43.328
The surviving twin was crying alone

398
00:14:43.828 --> 00:14:47.550
in a field of pumpkins when he got an idea.

399
00:14:47.555 --> 00:14:49.455
He kicked one of the pumpkins into the air

400
00:14:49.955 --> 00:14:52.577
and made a new head for his brother.

401
00:14:53.770 --> 00:14:53.992
The lords of the underworld thought

402
00:14:54.492 --> 00:14:56.263
they had won, but instead,

403
00:14:56.763 --> 00:14:59.935
the twins came back to challenge them.

404
00:15:00.435 --> 00:15:01.640
They defeated the lords in a game,

405
00:15:02.140 --> 00:15:02.888
and ever since,

406
00:15:03.388 --> 00:15:07.330
we have honored the ball playing twins.

407
00:15:07.533 --> 00:15:08.470
Sam: Great story!

408
00:15:08.547 --> 00:15:10.547
Too bad we can?t come back from the dead.

409
00:15:11.470 --> 00:15:12.760
Joe: And why can?t we?

410
00:15:13.260 --> 00:15:14.400
Fred: Yeah! Imagine the look

411
00:15:14.540 --> 00:15:15.562
on Kaka?s face if we showed up

412
00:15:16.620 --> 00:15:17.600
dressed as ball players!

413
00:15:17.560 --> 00:15:18.187
Joe: Exactly!

414
00:15:18.687 --> 00:15:19.810
Let?s challenge him to a game!

415
00:15:20.310 --> 00:15:21.273
Sam: Uh, guys?

416
00:15:21.773 --> 00:15:22.592
Fred: Yeah! And even though

417
00:15:23.920 --> 00:15:23.648
he?s probably a stinky player,

418
00:15:24.148 --> 00:15:24.752
he?ll have to accept.

419
00:15:25.252 --> 00:15:25.438
Sam: Guys?

420
00:15:25.938 --> 00:15:26.000
And if we win,

421
00:15:26.500 --> 00:15:26.897
we can get the book back

422
00:15:27.397 --> 00:15:28.712
and kick Kaka out of his seat,

423
00:15:29.212 --> 00:15:30.833
so Chun?s mom can move back!

424
00:15:31.333 --> 00:15:31.608
What do you say?

425
00:15:32.108 --> 00:15:32.343
Sam: Guys!

426
00:15:32.843 --> 00:15:33.392
Don?t you remember what happens

427
00:15:33.892 --> 00:15:34.905
to the losers?

428
00:15:35.405 --> 00:15:36.370
They lose their heads!

429
00:15:36.870 --> 00:15:39.720
Fred: We?re not going to lose! I nailed that shot yesterday.

430
00:15:39.572 --> 00:15:41.580
Sam: Fred, you can?t possibly take credit for that.

431
00:15:42.800 --> 00:15:46.868
Fred: Sam. Sometimes you just have to go for it.

432
00:15:47.368 --> 00:15:48.555
Chun: Father?s old equipment.

433
00:15:49.550 --> 00:15:52.723
Come on! You guys have a lot to learn.

434
00:15:53.223 --> 00:15:55.668
Fred: Like what?

435
00:15:56.168 --> 00:15:57.677
Ooh! Ow!

436
00:15:58.177 --> 00:15:58.922
Chun: Like the fact that a Ring Ball

437
00:15:59.422 --> 00:16:00.478
is really heavy.

438
00:16:00.978 --> 00:16:01.828
Lesson Number Two:

439
00:16:02.328 --> 00:16:04.270
You can?t use your hands or your feet,

440
00:16:04.527 --> 00:16:06.678
but you can use everything else.

441
00:16:07.178 --> 00:16:08.732
Fred: Alright! I?m getting the hang of this!

442
00:16:09.232 --> 00:16:09.692
Sam: Aah!

443
00:16:10.192 --> 00:16:10.517
Joe: Sam, you can?t duck

444
00:16:11.170 --> 00:16:12.508
every time I pass it to you.

445
00:16:13.800 --> 00:16:14.725
But surely, you can use your hands

446
00:16:15.225 --> 00:16:15.325
Ow!

447
00:16:15.705 --> 00:16:16.397
At some point!

448
00:16:16.897 --> 00:16:17.597
I mean, how else do you get it

449
00:16:18.970 --> 00:16:18.772
through the ring?

450
00:16:19.272 --> 00:16:19.637
Chun: It?s hard!

451
00:16:20.137 --> 00:16:20.780
So hard, that the first team

452
00:16:21.280 --> 00:16:22.765
to do it automatically wins.

453
00:16:23.265 --> 00:16:23.645
Which is why we?re not even

454
00:16:24.145 --> 00:16:24.948
going to practice it.

455
00:16:25.448 --> 00:16:26.877
Sam: What do you mean? Aah!

456
00:16:27.377 --> 00:16:29.108
Joe: Well, how are we going to win, then?

457
00:16:29.608 --> 00:16:29.932
Chun: Your only chance is

458
00:16:30.432 --> 00:16:31.365
to score more points

459
00:16:31.865 --> 00:16:33.677
by hitting the markers on the court.

460
00:16:34.177 --> 00:16:35.995
Watch, and I?ll show you.

461
00:16:54.853 --> 00:17:02.505
[Applause]

462
00:17:03.500 --> 00:17:05.270
Joe: Kakapupahet!

463
00:17:05.770 --> 00:17:06.842
We return from the dead

464
00:17:07.342 --> 00:17:08.913
with the strength of the sun!

465
00:17:09.413 --> 00:17:10.688
Sam: We have returned like

466
00:17:11.188 --> 00:17:12.570
the ball playing twins

467
00:17:12.557 --> 00:17:15.137
who challenged the lords of the underworld!

468
00:17:15.637 --> 00:17:16.417
Fred: Kakapupahet!

469
00:17:16.917 --> 00:17:18.858
We challenge you on this special day

470
00:17:19.358 --> 00:17:22.250
of the harvest sun snake to a ball game!

471
00:17:22.525 --> 00:17:22.720
Kakapupahet: What?

472
00:17:23.220 --> 00:17:25.190
Chun: Yes! Play a game!

473
00:17:25.690 --> 00:17:27.570
King: Do you shrink from this challenge,

474
00:17:27.557 --> 00:17:30.208
Lord Kakapupahet?

475
00:17:30.708 --> 00:17:31.850
Kakapupahet: As a favor to the king,

476
00:17:32.350 --> 00:17:33.800
I will accept this challenge.

477
00:17:33.580 --> 00:17:35.168
We will indeed play ball,

478
00:17:35.668 --> 00:17:38.265
and the losers shall have their heads cut off

479
00:17:38.765 --> 00:17:47.940
on these very steps!

480
00:17:48.440 --> 00:17:50.147
Fred: Man, this?ll be a piece of cake!

481
00:17:50.647 --> 00:17:51.602
Look at him!

482
00:17:52.102 --> 00:17:52.675
Sam: Actually, Fred?

483
00:17:53.175 --> 00:17:55.675
You need to look at him!

484
00:17:56.175 --> 00:17:57.930
Fred: Wow! If I were a scout

485
00:17:58.430 --> 00:17:58.752
Sam: I would definitely

486
00:17:59.252 --> 00:18:00.972
put Pre-Columbian Mexico on my list.

487
00:18:01.472 --> 00:18:01.770
Joe: So, uh,

488
00:18:02.270 --> 00:18:04.178
which one of us is guarding him?

489
00:18:04.678 --> 00:18:05.863
Sam: I?m just the alternate.

490
00:18:06.363 --> 00:18:07.940
You?re the ones who better win this thing!

491
00:18:08.440 --> 00:18:09.843
Chun: Don?t be afraid! You can do it!

492
00:18:10.343 --> 00:18:11.772
Kakapupahet stinks!

493
00:18:12.272 --> 00:18:13.220
Fred: Hear that, guys?

494
00:18:13.720 --> 00:18:14.637
That?s all we have to remember.

495
00:18:15.137 --> 00:18:18.830
Kaka stinks! Let?s go!

496
00:18:31.258 --> 00:19:14.198
[Applause]

497
00:19:14.698 --> 00:19:15.670
Sam: It?s nineteen to one, guys!

498
00:19:16.170 --> 00:19:18.897
Just thought I?d remind you!

499
00:19:19.397 --> 00:19:20.840
Trio: Aah!

500
00:19:22.750 --> 00:19:25.580
It's out!

501
00:19:26.693 --> 00:19:28.450
Sam: Joe? Are you alright?

502
00:19:28.545 --> 00:19:29.915
Joe: I think you better go in, Sam.

503
00:19:30.415 --> 00:19:31.650
Sam: What?

504
00:19:31.565 --> 00:19:32.785
Fred: Come on, Sam! They?ve got the ball!

505
00:19:33.285 --> 00:19:36.877
[Applause]

506
00:19:37.377 --> 00:19:38.355
Fred: Sam, you?re right by the marker.

507
00:19:38.855 --> 00:19:39.918
Go for the easy shot!

508
00:19:40.418 --> 00:19:40.838
Sam: But it?s only one point!

509
00:19:41.338 --> 00:19:42.238
They?re too far ahead!

510
00:19:43.507 --> 00:19:44.870
Sam: Aah!

511
00:19:47.498 --> 00:19:54.950
[Applause]

512
00:19:54.595 --> 00:19:55.912
Fred: Sam! Are you alright?

513
00:19:56.412 --> 00:19:59.472
Sam: Yeah. Do we get to keep our heads?

514
00:19:59.972 --> 00:20:04.110
[Applause]

515
00:20:04.610 --> 00:20:05.832
King: You have defeated your opponents

516
00:20:06.332 --> 00:20:07.398
with honor.

517
00:20:07.898 --> 00:20:09.613
For this, we give you the privilege

518
00:20:10.113 --> 00:20:11.783
of the blood sacrifice.

519
00:20:12.283 --> 00:20:14.363
Take this, so that you may cut off the heads

520
00:20:14.863 --> 00:20:16.213
of the vanquished.

521
00:20:16.713 --> 00:20:17.222
Sam: Okay.

522
00:20:17.722 --> 00:20:21.805
Unless, Kakapupahet clears out of town

523
00:20:22.305 --> 00:20:23.607
and never shows his ugly face

524
00:20:24.107 --> 00:20:25.367
around here again!

525
00:20:25.867 --> 00:20:28.110
Joe: And gives us back our book!

526
00:20:28.610 --> 00:20:29.518
You know? The thing with the blue cover

527
00:20:30.180 --> 00:20:31.193
and the squiggles?

528
00:20:34.447 --> 00:20:36.170
Excellent!

529
00:20:36.517 --> 00:20:37.238
It?s still not working!

530
00:20:37.738 --> 00:20:38.335
I can?t even read it!

531
00:20:38.835 --> 00:20:40.303
Sam: Well. Those numbers I understand.

532
00:20:40.803 --> 00:20:40.863
See?

533
00:20:41.363 --> 00:20:42.510
It?s the date and the time of the equinox,

534
00:20:43.100 --> 00:20:43.998
which actually

535
00:20:44.498 --> 00:20:46.337
Joe! Fred! Look!

536
00:21:00.780 --> 00:21:01.382
Fred: Ow!

537
00:21:01.882 --> 00:21:02.563
So how about it, guys?

538
00:21:03.630 --> 00:21:03.582
Joe: How about what?

539
00:21:04.820 --> 00:21:05.165
Fred: You guys are going to have horse,

540
00:21:05.665 --> 00:21:05.853
unless you match

541
00:21:06.353 --> 00:21:08.123
my one thousand year long shot!

542
00:21:08.623 --> 00:21:09.500
Joe: Give me a break!

543
00:21:09.505 --> 00:21:10.222
Sam: I?ll do you one better.

544
00:21:10.722 --> 00:21:12.115
I?ll use Chichen Itza rules.

545
00:21:12.615 --> 00:21:13.678
Fred:: Oh, man! You are crazy!

546
00:21:14.178 --> 00:21:14.400
Sam: Ready?

547
00:21:14.900 --> 00:21:16.772
One thousand year long shot coming up!

548
00:21:23.708 --> 00:21:23.953
Fred: You know, Sam.

549
00:21:24.453 --> 00:21:25.537
If you work at it every day,

550
00:21:26.370 --> 00:21:26.665
in about one thousand years,

551
00:21:27.165 --> 00:21:27.762
you can be as good as me.

552
00:21:28.262 --> 00:21:29.360
Joe: Speaking of fat heads,

553
00:21:29.860 --> 00:21:30.353
what was that you said

554
00:21:30.853 --> 00:21:31.808
about my Yankee?s glove

555
00:21:32.308 --> 00:21:33.378
back at the jaguar tree?

556
00:21:33.878 --> 00:21:34.433
Fred: Huh? I don?t remember!

557
00:21:34.933 --> 00:21:35.372
Joe: Oh, sure you do.

558
00:21:35.872 --> 00:21:37.192
Something about how you swiped it?

559
00:21:37.692 --> 00:21:38.182
Fred: I didn?t swipe it!

560
00:21:38.682 --> 00:21:40.435
I just forgot to return it.

561
00:21:40.935 --> 00:21:42.160
I had things on my mind.

562
00:21:42.660 --> 00:21:43.215
Sam: Hahaha!

563
00:21:43.715 --> 00:21:43.815
Fred: What?s so funny?

564
00:21:44.187 --> 00:21:45.380
I have things on my mind!

565
00:21:45.538 --> 00:21:46.503
All the time! I do!

566
00:21:47.300 --> 00:21:48.503
Okay, I?ll give it back.

567
00:21:49.300 --> 00:21:50.530
Just as soon as I find it.

568
00:21:51.300 --> 00:22:21.280
