[opening]

Olive: What seems to be the problem, sir?
Man with Fridge Problems: Thanks for coming, Odd Squad. I'm thinking of changing jobs. I mean, I've been a professional dancer my whole life, but my heart is telling me... I think I wanna work in a bank!
[pause]
Otto: Do you have any experience with a bank?
Man with Fridge Problems: None. Nothing. No.
Otto: Um, I think it's a risk. But I think it's one worth taking.
Man with Fridge Problems: Yeah. You guys are right. Thanks, guys.
Olive: Do you also have an odd problem?
Man with Fridge Problems: Oh yeah, yeah. Uh, everytime I open my fridge, it does this.
[fridge opening]

[party blower]
Otto: [laughing] Fun! [laughing]
Man with Fridge Problems: Yeah, but try getting a glass of milk in the middle of the night.
Olive: Hmmm. Time for the Party Pooper Gadget.
[ding]
[sucking]
[sad trombone]
[fridge opening]
Man with Fridge Problems: Wow! Thanks, Odd Squad!
Otto: Have a wonderful day.
Man with Fridge Problems: I will.
[whooshing]
Man with Fridge Problems: [to himself] Ah. I will enjoy ice-cold, delicious--
[confetti exploding]
[party blower]
Man with Fridge Problems: Hey, is this still good to drink?
Ms. O: There you two are.
Otto: Aw, man! Is it wear your bathing suit to work day?
Ms. O: [interrupting] No.
Olive: Then why are you wearing the ba--
Ms. O: [interrupting] When I'm not working, I like to do one thing: swim. It takes me to a happy place.
[tropical music]
Otto: [to Olive] I don't know what's happening.
Olive: Um, Ms. O.
[music stops]
Ms. O: Something very odd has happened to my friend's pool. I need you to fix it so I can swim, or else I will get very grumpy.
Otto: Was that you being not grumpy? [pause] Oh no.
[pool noodle ripping]
Otto: [to Olive] Go go go go go!
Olive: [to Otto] Come on come on come on!
Olive: So that's why she can't swim.
Otto: Woah.
Olive: This is definitely odd. It shouldn't be cold and snowy in the summer. It should be hot. We should figure out how cold it is.
Otto: Good plan. [pause] [shivering] It's cool... It's... uh... chilly, it's breezy...
Olive: Hold up, partner. If we're measuring temperature, we're gonna measure it the right way: with thermometers.
[ding]
Olive: The higher the red line goes, the hotter it is. Over here, we're at 100 degrees Fahrenheit. the red line goes up to 35, which means it's 35 degrees. [exhales] Really hot.
Otto: And over here, the line is way lower. It only goes up to 20 minus 7 degrees. Cold.
Olive: That's why everything over there is frozen. Water freezes when the temperature is below 32 degrees. And 20 is definitely below 32. goes below 0 degrees. Minus 7 is definitely below 7.
[Odd Squad theme]
Olive: [into badge phone] Gopher Olive.
Oscar: [other side of phone] It's me, Oscar. Did you fix the pool yet?
Olive: [into phone] Uh, we're getting closer.
Oscar: [into phone] Ms. O really needs to swim. I told her to take a drink of water to help her relax, but...
Ms. O: [offscreen] [yelling] Oscar!!!
[water splashing]
Oscar: [into phone] She didn't like that.
Olive: [into phone] I got it! I got it.
Oscar: [into phone] Please hurry.
[water splashing]
Ms. O: [offscreen] Oscar?
[badge phone closing]
Olive: [to Otto] But who would want to change the weather?
Olive: The weatherman!
Otto: A cat!
Olive: [confused] Did you say cat?
Otto: Noooo. I said the weatherman.
Olive: Let's go.
Olive & Otto: [yelling] Odd Squad! Odd Squad! Stop right there, weatherman!
Frank Tudesco: Woah, woah guys! I'm not the weatherman. I'm Frank Tudesco, sports.
Olive: [gasp] It's true! I watch your sports recaps every night!
Sven Jorgenson: And I'm Sven Jorgenson.
Olive: Of course!
Frank Tudesco: I was just interviewing Sven about how much he loves skiing and skating.
Sven Jorgenson: I do! I love them! [laughs]
[pause]
Otto: We need to see the weatherman.
Olive: He's changing the weather in town and we need to see him.
Frank Tudesco: This is Studio 2. You want Studio 9.
Olive: Thanks.
[running footsteps]
Frank Tudesco: [to Sven Jorgenson] So, Sven. You're telling me how much you love skiing and skating.
Sven Jorgenson: I do! I love it! [laughs]
Frank Tudesco: And that's your sports minute with Frank Tudesco. Goodnight.
Olive: [sigh] [to herself] No...[to Businesswoman in Hall] Excuse me, do you know where Studio 9 is?
Businesswoman in Hall: Yeah, you just go down this hallway and make a right. Actually, I can just walk you there.
Olive & Otto: Oh.
Otto: That would be great. Thanks.
[awkward silence]
Olive: [to Businesswoman in Hall] Uh, we're kinda in a rush. Do you mind if we run?
Businesswoman in Hall: Oh, sure.
Weather Man: So we have some sunshine coming our way this week. A little but of rain, but don't forget, after all, we are having a wonderful--
Olive, Otto, & Businesswoman in Hall: [yelling] Odd Squad! Odd Squad! Stop right there, weatherman!
Businesswoman in Hall: [to Olive & Otto] You know what, I'm kinda busy. Is it okay if I go?
Olive: Sure! It was really nice meeting you.
Otto: Thank you so much for your help. [to Weather Man] We know you've been changing the weather, Weather Man. If... That is even your name.
Weather Man: One, that is my real name, but two, I did not do it.
Olive & Otto: Aw, man. Really?
Weather Man: I'm just as upset as you are. I've been getting reports from all over town about things turning cold!
Olive: We just thought it was Ms. O's friend's pool.
Weather Man: Oh, it's much bigger than that. Look. All of the blue areas are 20 minus 7 degrees. That is way too cold for summer. But look how high this red line goes. The rest of the town has summer weather.
Olive: Why are some areas turning cold and some not?
Weather Man: [sigh]
Olive: [to Otto] I think we need to pay a visit to the Math Room.
[badges rotating]
[paper fluttering]
Weather Man: [to camera woman] You caught that on tape, right? So it's not just me...
[paper fluttering]
Olive & Otto: Oh. Hi, Orchid.
Orchid: You guys ever hear of knocking before going into the Math Room?
Olive: We didn't know you were in here.
Otto: Sorry.
Orchid: It's okay. I'm almost finished. [to Math Room] Math Room, run the numbers one more time, please.
Math Room: Generating numbers.
[paper unfolding]
Orchid: Of course. It all makes sense now. Olive, here's a letter. Give it to my brother if I don't make it back. [pause] What am I talking about? Of course I'm gonna make it back! I'm Orchid! I'm awesome!
[badge rotating]
[paper fluttering]
Olive: Okay, um, back to the...
Otto: Yeah.
Olive: Yeah. [clears throat] Math Room, show us the weather map of the town.
Math Room: Generating image.
[paper unfolding]
Olive: Now only show us the places that are cold.
Math Room: Generating.
Olive: Weird. The only cold places are hills and anything that has to do with water.
Otto: Yeah. Sven must be happy.
Olive: Who?
Otto: Winter sports guy.
Olive: Oh.
Otto: Water freezes when the temperature is below 32 0 degrees. And all of these places are 20 minus 7 degrees. If all the water and hills are frozen with ice and snow, Sven can ice skate or ski whenever he wants.
Olive: I think you're on to something, partner. Math Room, bring up the profile of Sven Jorgenson.
Math Room: Sven Jorgenson: championship skater, championship skier, part-time inventor.
Olive: Inventor! He must have invented something to change the weather. [to Otto] Let's go.
[badges rotating]
[paper fluttering]
Sven Jorgenson: Ah, I love snow! I do! I love it! Oh!
Otto: Hello, Sven.
Sven Jorgenson: Odd Squad? Uh, isn't all the snow in the middle of the summer time horrible? Boo!
Olive: We know you've been changing the temperature, Sven. Keeping it less than 32 degrees, so everything freezes.
Sven Jorgenson: Nicely done, Odd Squad. But you'll never find my temperature-changing machine. [laughing]
Olive: Oh! Look at the snowflake on the ground!
Sven Jorgenson: Ooh! Ah! No... [pause] How did you...?
Olive: It's the only reason you'd wear a hat like this.
Otto: So why'd you do it, Sven?
Sven Jorgenson: I've been waiting to do my winter sports all summer. I want to ski and skate and snow angel make! Boo!
Otto: Well you can't any more.
Sven Jorgenson: But you forget, I'm a part-time inventor, and I'll just part-time invent another gadget again! [laughs] You'll never catch Sven!
[footsteps]
Olive: Wait right there, Sven!
Olive: Oh, man! This guy is like olympic-level fast!
Otto: Gold medal!
[panting]
Otto: He's getting away!
Sven Jorgenson: Ha ha! I am!
Olive: No he's not. Water freezes when the temperature goes below 32 0 degrees, remember?
Sven Jorgenson: [laughing]
Olive: And it just so happens Sven is about to run through a puddle. 20 minus 5 degrees will put him on ice.
[gadget firing]
[water freezing]
Sven Jorgenson: Oh, boo hoo!
Otto: [to Olive] Nice work, partner.
[high five]
[Odd Squad theme]
[badge phone opening]
Otto: [into phone] Oscar, we fixed the temperature problem. Ms. O can go swimming again.
Oscar: [on phone] Thanks. [on screen, into phone] But Ms. O couldn't wait any longer. She flooded headquarters.
[water moving around]
[tropical music]
Ms. O: Weeeee!!
[water splashing]
[badge phone closing]
Otto: [to Olive] Ms. O flooded headquarters.
Olive: What?! We gotta get our swimsuits. Come on!
Otto: Yes!
