Good! 'Cause I have a kid who has a question,
and she needs an answer! Pront... Whoa! Capisce!
Hi, StoryBots. My name is Keiran.
Hi, Keiran! It's nice to meet you!
Hey, Keiran!
Whoa... Hey, where'd your teeth go?
I lost this one
a long time ago on the Fourth of July.
Yeah! Fourth of July!
And I lost this one when I was...
with my nanny.
- Really? - With your nanny? No way.
You don't say!
Well, what's your question, Keiran?
Can you please tell me where French fries come from?
Because I like to dip them with ketchup.
Wow.
Where do French fries come from?
Uh...
Hey! I got it! I know where to find the answer!
StoryBots, prepare for transport!
Let's find out where French fries come from!
Whoa!
Outer World, here we come!
Don't lose my marbles, man!
Oh! I think that ship has sailed.
Whoa!
Ah!
Ohhh!
Ee!
Ah!
Boop!
Where are we, dude?
Well...
there's the Eiffel Tower, so we must be in Paris.
Paris?
I love Paris!
There's the fancy cafés. We can visit Notre Dame.
There's the Arc de Triomphe. I can stroll down the Seine.
I can eat croissants. We can see the Champs-Élysées.
We can climb the stairs at Sacré-Coeur!
- Bo. - And there's the artists at Montmartre.
- We can visit the Louvre. - Bo.
And they have the Mona Lisa. And there's the Musée d'Orsay.
- Bo! - And the Matisses
and the Monets and the Picassos!
Bo!
We get it!
There are a lot of fun things to do in Paris,
but we need to focus on Kieran's question now, okay?
Oh, yeah, okay. Oh, good idea.
Bing, can you tell us what we're doing here?
It's over there! It's right there! There's the answer!
So then I says,
"Pardon me, garcon,
but there is a me in your soup."
Uh, I don't see the connection, Bing.
You don't see the connection?
Uh, excuse me. Guys!
- Oui? - Yeah, you!
Can you please tell my good friend over here where you dudes come from?
From France, of course.
Boom! Nailed it!
Question answered. French flies come from France.
Call it a wrap, guys. Let's head home.
Bing! We're looking for French fries,
not French flies!
We are ze "flies."
With ze "L."
You are looking for ze "fries."
With ze "R."
Well, I knew that!
- Boop. - What?
Eh, come on, fellas, let's buzz off.
Oui.
- Thanks, flies. - Bye!
Okey-dokey! Thank you very much!
Good luck out there!
See you around! Bye!
Merci.

Pumpkin pie! Ah! So many questions!
Hi, boss!
What are you doing back here?
I told you to get an answer! Not dillydally!
We got the answer, Boss!
We know exactly where French fries come from!
It all starts underground.
With potatoes, man.
Yeah. A giant tractor comes and scoops 'em all up,
and then they rumble, and they tumble,
and they shake off all the dirt
before they get dumped in a truck and driven away!
Then it's so nice!
They get washed and scrubbed
and cut and soaked in hot oil!
That's the frying part.
Boop.
What? Just...
gimme that tape!
