Barbie Video Game Hero

BARBIE:
You guys ready? I finally finished

the level I was working on.

Can't wait to see what you think.

- Can't wait.

- Super-stoked.

Game on.

[UPBEAT VIDEO GAME MUSIC PLAYING]

GAME NARRATOR:
Welcome to Cupcake Caverns.

- TERESA:
Are we llamas?

- BARBIE:
Yup.

Okay, the caverns are tricky. We're going

to left, right, left, straight, left, right.

Then you'll see the sugar flies.

Jump and duck the flies.

Spacebar to jump, and left click to duck.

Look for any power-ups. We're gonna

go up and over Sprinkle Falls.

Remember, avoid the bears

and their cupcakes.

- Got it?

- Roger that.

Who's Roger?

[TERESA CHUCKLES]

- Heh. Sorry. Never mind.

- Everyone ready?

- Ready.

- Ready.

The in-game tutorial is who I am.

If you have any questions,

then I am your man.

Thanks, cloud man, we got this.

Well, Barbie does.

BARBIE:
And go.

RENEE:
Hey, guys, wait for me.

BARBIE:
Okay, so to get to the other side,

we're gonna jump onto the mixer.

Oh! Good job, Barbie.

Way to go.

This level is delicious.

RENEE:
Oh, I wish we could just

eat our way through the levels.

- BARBIE:
Ha, ha.

- TERESA:
Oh, sugar flies.

Smash those cake pops.

RENEE:
Piece of cake.

Get it? Piece of cake? Ha, ha.

That was terrible, Renee.

BARBIE:
Okay, now to Sprinkle Falls.

I'm going to code us

a little power-up to help us over.

TERESA:
It's so cool that you know how

to code, Barbie, but isn't that cheating?

BARBIE:
Not if you're the one

who created the game.

Just one second.

GAME NARRATOR:
Flying power-up, engaged.

- RENEE:
I want wings.

- TERESA:
Renee, come on.

- Grab the power-up.

- Unh.

- Sorry, total newb. I forgot how to jump?

- Space bar.

TERESA:
Cool, we can fly.

BARBIE:

Over Sprinkle Falls, and we're done.

RENEE:
Oh, cupcakes.

Huh? What happened?

Is it supposed to do that?

No, something's wrong.

Let me try this again.

This should do it.

Huh. I don't get it. That should've worked.

I never thought I'd see

a stumped Barbie. What's up?

I don't know, Renee.

I am definitely stumped.

Could be a virus.

Hmm. Not sure. This could take a minute.

Sorry, Barbie. I gotta jet.

I wish I could help, but I gotta go too.

- Good luck.

- See you, guys.

Huh. Why won't this work?

Maybe I'll try a reboot.

Hey, Chelsea.

What you doing?

I'm trying to figure something out

with my game.

And what are you doing?

Oh, sorry.

Can I see your tablet, please?

Ha, ha. Yes.

Or you can help me debug "Cupcake Cavern."

Yes.

GAME NARRATOR:
Welcome to Cupcake Caverns.

- CHELSEA:
So, I'm the llama guy?

- BARBIE:
You're the llama guy.

- CHELSEA:
Where'd I go?

- The wrong way.

You're supposed to go into the cavern.

GAME NARRATOR:
Welcome to Cupcake Caverns.

- Why does that keep happening?

- Because you're going the wrong way.

Oh, okay.

GAME NARRATOR:
Welcome to Cupcake Caverns.

Chelsea, you have to go into the cavern.

It's called "Cupcake Caverns."

But I don't wanna go that way.

It looks scary.

- It's how you play the game.

- But I don't wanna play the game that way.

I wanna play the game my way.

- You can't.

- Why not?

Because that's the way it's designed.

Why does there only have to be one way?

Because that's how it's programmed.

Well, that doesn't sound like fun.

You know what's fun?

Your favourite game.

"Just Dance."

You wanna play?

I do love that game...

...but I wanna look into

why this level is being glitchy.

Maybe later?

Okay.

Smell that?

I think Mom just made some cupcakes.

Bring one back for me?

But leave the tablet.

[SIGHS]

Let's see if I can find a clue,

see what's going on.

[TABLET BEEPS]
