00:00Do you see that?
00:12Is this a restaurant?
00:15Um, yeah?
00:17Are you serving lunch?
00:18Absolutely!
00:20That's good!
00:23I got this, Alan. This is assistant stuff.
00:27Oh, sorry. How may we help you, ma'am?
00:31Menu. Menu, please.
00:32Menu, yes, yes. Here we go. The menu.
00:35Excuse me, but did you just drive in in a shoe?
00:39Yes, yeah, I did. I happened to be the old woman who lived in a shoe.
00:43Who's the old woman who lives in a shoe?
00:45Oh, she's from a nursery rhyme, Tally. There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.
00:50She had so many children, she didn't know what to do.
00:53That's wrong.
00:54What's wrong?
00:55I do know what to do.
00:57I get all the kids in the car and take them out to eat.
01:01You take them out to eat?
01:03Hey, kids! Come on in!
01:05Whoa, whoa! You really do have a lot of children!
01:11How many are there?
01:13Beats me! You reach a point where they just become a kind of blur!
01:17One, two, two, one!
01:19The blur is right! They're moving so fast I can't count them!
01:23Listen! Forget the menu! That sandwich looks good!
01:27Start each of them off with one of those, okay?
01:29Oh, sure! Absolutely!
01:31It's just that if we don't know how many kids you have, we do not know how many sandwiches to make!
01:37Sorry, gotta take this! Hello?
01:41Alan! Alan, this is a problem!
01:45We can't feed them if we can't count them! And we can't count them unless they stop moving!
01:51Well, we just have to figure out a way to make them stop moving then!
01:55But how?! How?!
01:57I don't know, but I do know that if we're gonna solve this problem, we are both gonna have to remain calm!
02:03But how?! How?!
02:05Alright, try focusing on the problem or you take a slow, deep breath!
02:09A slow, deep breath?!
02:11Slow, deep breath! Ready? In through the nose!
02:13Out through the mouth!
02:15In through my nose!
02:17In through my mouth!
02:19In through my nose! Out through your mouth!
02:21Out through my nose! Good! Good!
02:23In through my nose! And out through my mouth!
02:25Good! Good!
02:27Freeze dance!
02:29What?!
02:30That's how we'll get them to stop moving long enough to count them!
02:33Freeze dance is a game!
02:35You play music, and everybody dances!
02:37Then you turn the music off, and everybody has to freeze!
