Explosions of lava. Arnold, don't you understand? According to my research, we're floating on top of an undersea volcano!

Arnold

Yikes! I knew I should have stayed home today!

[Arnold goes over to the mud puddle and tries to pull the fossilized Maiasaura egg out of it that was for Dr. Skeledon. Luckily, he finds it not broken. After he gets back the egg, he says...!]

Arnold

And I can give Dr. Skeledon back her egg.

[After he says this, he however notices his giant size to after he fought the T.Rex. The egg refossilizes again. But Arnold notices he's too big to fit into the bus. That is, as he says...!]

Arnold

Except, I am too big to fit into the bus.

[to Arnold] Well with few adjustments, you might be the bus!

EEEveryone else

RALPHIE?! (THIS IS SERIOUS!)

It's a good thing you didn't stay home today, Arnold.

[While Phoebe says this, Arnold is still concerned about Dr. Skeledon's fossilized Maiasaura egg. And Arnold, he says...!]

Arnold

Well, I am sure going to be happy when this is back to a rock again. It's a lot safer.

We have to get to that trap before the praying mantis does!

Arnold

Don't feel bad, Phoebe. Only a giant spider could trap that general.

Yes! Arnold, you're a genius! Isn't he, Ms. Frizzle?

His idea certainly has legs.

Arnold

But, uh...I was just joking.

C'mon, bus. Do your stuff!

Arnold

I was just joking!

It is okay, Arnold. I do not blame you. (I forgive you. After all, it was an accident.)

[She --faintly-- smiles after saying this.]

Arnold

You don't?

[After Arnold says this, her smile turns into a frown. That is, as she says...!]

No.

[Despite Arnold's apology, Wanda does forgive Arnold. But then, she gets furious. That is, as she says...!]

[in an outrage] BUT I BLAME YOUR CRUMMY IDEA!

Why couldn't our mission be water like Ms. Rivers' class?

Yeah. At least water does something.

[Keesha sighs, then a volcano project is shown]

Arnold

Wow! That's fantastic!

FSFemale student

It's called, "Everything you've always wanted to know about rocks." Neat, huh?

Solid!

It's great!

Arnold

Really amazing!

[Keesha sighs again]
