From Wandery, I'm Robbie Daimond

0:08

and this is Little Stories

0:10

Everywhere. Each episode will bring

0:12

you stories for kids that spark

0:14

the imagination, take you to other

0:16

worlds and bring joy. This

0:19

is the third of four parts of Game

0:22

of Griffins. Beatrice

0:28

was mad. Her

0:31

parents were being completely unreasonable

0:33

again. Can you please

0:35

just make an exception this one time? It's

0:38

the finale. Her mom

0:40

crossed her arms. You know the rule. Dad

0:43

and I watched Game of Griffins first to make

0:45

sure there are no scary parts. Bea

0:47

didn't understand her parents worrying about how

0:49

scary the TV show was when

0:52

a year ago Bea had been

0:54

transported to the real Game

0:56

of Griffins world. She'd

0:58

run through a forest of flaming wild oaks

1:01

and had been held captive by King

1:03

Pummelton in the Volcano of Fear. She'd

1:06

even ridden on the back of a Griffin. Tears

1:09

leaked down Bea's cheeks. She

1:12

wanted to go back so badly. At

1:15

night, she tried to make herself dream about it,

1:18

hoping she would wake up there again. But

1:21

it never worked. And tonight,

1:23

the show was ending. Forever.

1:27

Her dad wrapped Bea in his arms. Come

1:29

on, I know you're tired. Bea

1:32

stifled a yawn. She

1:35

was a little tired. She and

1:37

her family were on vacation with her cousins. They

1:40

had rented a house near a water park

1:42

in Wisconsin, a few hours from their home

1:44

in Chicago. All day

1:46

she had raced down epic waterslides and

1:48

body surfed in the wave pool. Your

1:51

parents are right Beatrice. Game

1:53

of Griffins is way too sophisticated for

1:55

little kids. Bea

1:57

didn't have to turn around to know who was

2:00

Talking amateur. Annoying cause

2:02

in Isaac he was

2:04

seventeen. It's and a

2:06

game of Griffin's Superfan.

2:08

Didn't. Think anyone else understood the

2:11

show like he did, especially not

2:13

a little kid like Be. Isaacs

2:16

to dressed as his favorite

2:18

character. Sir Shanahan leads Rebecca

2:20

closest confidant he were plastic

2:22

armor with sake bear from

2:24

framed over his shoulders p

2:26

always wore his costume to

2:28

watch episodes. He said it

2:30

helped him feel immersed in

2:32

the world. Be.

2:35

Quickly wiped away her tears and spun

2:37

around to confront him. Oh yeah. I.

2:39

Challenge you to a game of presence.

2:42

Soviet. Contest and these Mom

2:44

interjected there. Will be no

2:46

contests to night. Be.

2:49

Fed. Pouting.

2:51

it's be trudged up the stairs.

2:56

Be lay in bed few

2:58

minutes. She. Could hear the sounds of

3:00

the show from downstairs. that a rubber. Bees

3:10

eyes grew heavy and she

3:12

felt herself to risking. Feel

3:20

welcome to start or heart racing.

3:23

Someone. With the window. The

3:26

lady be sprung from her bed and

3:28

ran to the window. There was only

3:31

one person in the entire universe who

3:33

called her up. My Lady. Sopot

3:39

had been her faithful companion on

3:41

her adventure in Game of Griffin's

3:43

She thought she'd never see. Him

3:45

Again, the theory was perched on

3:47

the window sills. It is purple

3:50

and green stripes simmering in the

3:52

street lights. Be through her arms

3:54

around still paths. Very next is

3:56

long ears tickled her shoulders. You.

4:00

6:07

6:11

6:46

and realize. She.

6:48

Was almost to the kids into the mud room. When

6:51

the light switch, dawn and

6:53

be spun around, the precinct

6:55

stood in the doorway. Where

6:57

you going? Nowhere

7:00

to see if some fresh air. Sir

7:03

lying and he crossed the fridge and pulled

7:05

out the makings of a P B N

7:08

J sandwich. If you don't tell me what

7:10

you're up to you, I'm going to wake

7:12

your parents. Thought he would. I just. See

7:16

was interrupted by So pot sticking

7:18

his head through the door frame

7:20

of mind or assume an Id

7:22

stuff, we don't have much time

7:25

before King Promoting arrives. Isaac dropped

7:27

the peanut butter. His face was.

7:30

It seemed like he was about

7:32

to yell the dust over to

7:34

him and put her hand over his

7:37

mouth a little. Lance: I'm not

7:39

scared. You don't need to be

7:41

either. Isaac relaxed.

7:44

Be removed her hand from his mouth.

7:52

What's Happening I told you a million

7:55

times. I've visited Game of Griffin's last year

7:57

of I thought you would make good on. Well.

8:00

It wasn't a now been of

8:02

Griffin's is visiting us. Seem

8:05

so back. Quickly filled eyes again on seeing

8:07

pummeled tins. Plans to come to their world

8:09

and exact revenge on Be if you wake

8:12

up my parents. Still never let me

8:14

go to to promote him will take

8:16

over Chicago. Guys. It was

8:18

quiet for a long time. Finally,

8:21

She nodded. I'm going

8:23

to. Sir. Too young

8:26

to face to promote it on

8:28

your own. Besides any my help

8:30

on a superfan be bristle miss

8:33

but see bit her lip. De.

8:35

Lisi wasn't screaming for parents. Three

8:42

of them have crept out of the

8:44

house in the cold winter air. Size

8:46

a cad, his bare for a costume

8:48

slung over his coke there for a

8:51

few steps. These don't know exactly what

8:53

we get to Chicago. Filled

8:55

puff smiled were immolate eat

8:57

all day care of that

8:59

he threw his head back

9:01

and send at the sky

9:03

or yi ay yi are

9:05

Oriole whole host Use the

9:07

pirates code for friend is

9:09

not force and you'll never

9:12

ever be alone. I.

9:14

Can be exchanged and excited.

9:16

bless they knew from so

9:18

thought was calling. Oh when.

9:22

Does the bellowing Buccaneers were a

9:24

group of teens or space pirates.

9:27

We traveled by floating ship and

9:29

a play by their own rules.

9:31

They were some of the last

9:34

holdouts against teams Hamilton and. That's

9:36

made them. Aloud

9:40

rumble food in the sky. Mood

9:43

is descended from the cloud.

9:47

Of Square Blue sales flew from them

9:49

as. A large bald

9:51

man in the striped shirt and large

9:54

hoop earrings stood. It's about. the

9:57

mirror to the ground in you ladder

10:00

over the side. Climb ye south up

10:02

here. Quick now, before we

10:04

return to the skies, leave ye swinging

10:07

if we must. The

10:09

three of them climbed as fast as they could. Seconds

10:12

after they were on the deck, the ship lurched

10:14

up into the sky with a jute. Isaac

10:18

looked over the edge. Whoa.

10:21

Pretty cool. V joined him at the

10:23

railing. The buildings and cars

10:26

below began to look like small toys.

10:29

The V grinned. Isaac was right.

10:31

This was pretty cool. Philpott

10:34

patted behind them. Pardon me, my

10:36

lady. I was wondering

10:38

if you'd come up with your

10:40

noodly new cuckoo banana's plan yet.

10:43

V's stomach sank. She

10:46

hadn't. V paced back

10:48

and forth on the deck, thinking out loud. Buccaneers

10:51

were stationed at all points of

10:53

the ship, shouting orders and marching

10:55

around. We could go through

10:57

the portal back to the game of Griffin's

11:00

world. So while King Pummelton

11:02

is looking for me in Chicago, we

11:04

can free the Griffiths. Philpott

11:06

shook his head. Afraid

11:08

not. King Pummelton is bringing

11:11

the Griffins with him to Chicago. Isaac

11:14

waved his hand impatiently. Besides,

11:17

as we know from season five, episode

11:19

eight, the closer King Pummelton is to

11:21

the volcano of fear, the more powerful

11:23

he is. If we try to

11:25

confront him in his world, we're as good

11:27

as dead. But if we can figure

11:29

out how to confront him here, we

11:32

might be able to win. The

11:35

ship made a loud groaning noise. V

11:37

felt her stomach drop, and the ball started

11:40

to descend. Rocky, are

11:42

you ready? V's mouth

11:44

went dry. Time was

11:46

running out. The

11:49

ship came to a stop floating just

11:51

above the shore of Lake Michigan. They

11:54

could see the Chicago lakefront in the distance. They

11:57

Spent the whole night singing songs with the bellowing

11:59

buns. The New Years. Now

12:01

there was time you say

12:03

their goodbyes farewell. Are you

12:06

fearless or Cyrix? don't forget

12:08

so j ever need us

12:10

for years after Tuesday's or

12:12

Aurora. Secret Shoppers already? are

12:14

you are? Are you? Oh,

12:16

use the pirates go to

12:18

be Rising and sopot. Climb

12:20

down the ladder to the

12:22

ground and the bellowing buccaneers

12:24

sale down into the. Be.

12:30

And Isaac walk down a busy

12:32

Chicago Avenue. The restaurants and stores

12:34

were packed with people wearing gear

12:37

for either the Chicago Bears or

12:39

the Detroit Lions be wrapped Her

12:41

brain for a plan so pot

12:43

patted on all fours next to

12:45

them. Isaacs bear for was draped

12:48

over still boss back to cover

12:50

up his brightly colored coat be

12:52

inside her scarf around his head

12:54

to hide his long years as

12:56

he squinted see what sort of

12:59

like did dog. Sort

13:01

of. Fortunately, everyone around them was too

13:04

distracted by the football game to pay

13:06

much attention to two kids and their

13:08

strange past. Has

13:12

been. A Listen to the. In

13:14

Ninety Four and Isaac, where's

13:16

the game today? Bad Soldier

13:18

Field about a mile away.

13:21

Why? Well what

13:23

seems Hamilton's. Big East.

13:27

That's easy. It is all consuming

13:29

vanity. Allows

13:31

people making a big deal and

13:33

paying and complements me Consist of

13:36

football team. Is about says

13:38

oh okay as him what The

13:40

door of a restaurant swung open

13:42

be heard the announcers on the

13:44

T v up with the first

13:46

quarter. of debris

13:49

be turned to isaac explain

13:51

later know i think he

13:53

was just trust me isaac

13:55

nodded surprised be leaned down

13:58

to sell pot We need

14:00

to split up. Philpott, you go to

14:02

my house and meet King Pummelton. Tell

14:04

him you're on his side and that you know

14:07

where I am. Then take him to

14:09

Soldier Field. Isaac and I will be waiting.

14:11

Yes, my lady. I'm on

14:13

it like pink on a dragon squash.

14:16

Wait, what's a dragon squash?

14:19

But Philpott was already galloping off in the

14:21

direction of Bee's home. It's like

14:23

a pink berry about the size of a grapefruit. Later,

14:26

Rebecca eats one in season two, episode three.

14:29

Isaac really did know Game of Griffins better

14:31

than anyone. The

14:34

two of them jogged towards Soldier Field. Bee

14:37

crossed her fingers as she ran. 15

14:42

minutes later, Bee and Isaac arrived outside

14:44

Soldier Field. Bee looked

14:46

up at the giant stadium. Its concrete

14:49

walls and Roman columns reached high into

14:51

the sky. It looked

14:53

just like the gladiator stadium in Game

14:55

of Griffins. Bee smiled.

14:58

It was perfect. Isaac

15:01

stood next to her panting. Bee,

15:04

seriously. What's the plan? I

15:07

can help. There's no way we

15:09

can defeat Pummelton and the Griffins on our own.

15:11

But if we can

15:13

lure him into a stadium with 60,000 people

15:17

and make him think he's the guest of honor, we

15:20

can catch him off guard and free the

15:22

Griffins. Isaac nodded. Not

15:25

bad, God. Bee swelled with

15:27

pride. Isaac never thought she

15:29

had good ideas. Isaac

15:31

headed toward the entrance. Come on. They

15:35

approached the heavyset ticket taker with a

15:37

bushy mustache. Ticket? We

15:40

don't have tickets, but we have to get inside.

15:44

Nice try, kid. I'm serious. Something

15:46

really big is about to happen. You're telling me.

15:49

Maybe the Bears or the Lions are going to win the

15:51

championship game. Take something out of a

15:53

thing, Mr. Bart. No. Bigger than

15:55

that. Isaac stepped forward,

15:58

puffing out his chest. Sir,

16:01

it is of the utmost importance that

16:03

we enter the stadium. At

16:06

most, get out of here. The

16:16

The They

16:21

swooped in front of the stadium lights,

16:23

casting dark shadows below. The

16:26

ticket takers jaw dropped. The

16:29

fast Isaac had. She

16:32

was going to confront King Pummelton,

16:34

whether she was ready or not.

16:58

That's the end of the third part of Game of

17:00

Griffin's. But

17:05

there's more to come, so be sure to listen

17:08
