Could you tell me where the right road to a
-a Diction-opolis or- or someplace...
00:15:27.049 --> 00:15:33.585
Whether Man: Dictionpolis? Well now, well now, well now.
I don't know of any wrong road to Dictionopolis,
00:15:33.585 --> 00:15:39.759
so if this road goes to Dictionopolis at all,
it must be the right road. Don't you think?
00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:44.979
And if it doesn't, it must be the right road to somewhere, mustn't it?

So I'd better hurry you along, too.

I can- I can find my own way.

you're bound to find some way.

It's against the law to think in the Doldrums.

Everybody thinks.

And that's why you're here. You weren't thinking.
00:19:13.098 --> 00:19:26.268
And you weren't paying attention, either. People who don't pay attention often get stuck in the Doldrums...(Snores)

Hahaha!

what can you do in the Doldrums?

00:43:21.982 --> 00:43:23.729
Milo: Isn't it a little dark?
00:43:23.729 --> 00:43:29.195
Shrift: Of course it's dark. Dungeons are always dark. If they weren't dark, they wouldn't be so unpleasant.
00:43:29.195 --> 00:43:32.479
Milo: But you said it would be pleasant down here.
Which-
00:43:32.479 --> 00:43:40.394
Shrift: Precisely. Which (*Witch).
You can always chat with a Which if you get lonely.
00:43:41.376 --> 00:43:48.878
Shrift: This is it, all the comforts of home.

00:44:00.333 --> 00:44:05.207
Which: Oh, there you are! How do you do?
00:44:05.207 --> 00:44:07.526
Milo: (hesistates) Hello.
00:44:07.526 --> 00:44:09.433
Which: Come in, come in, come in.
00:44:09.433 --> 00:44:13.473
Milo: You'd better be very careful, m'am.
There's a witch around here somewhere.
00:44:13.473 --> 00:44:20.907
Which: Well, of course there is! I am she.
Faintly Macabre, the not-so-wicked Which.
00:44:20.907 --> 00:44:25.761
There, you see? Official Which: Kingdom of Wisdom.
00:44:25.761 --> 00:44:29.196
Milo: Oh, a Which! Like the Whether Man.
00:44:29.196 --> 00:44:34.627
Which: Of course! The Whether Man is my brother.
At least he used to be.
00:44:34.627 --> 00:44:38.937
I don't know whether he still is,
I haven't seen him in years!
00:44:38.937 --> 00:44:43.176
Have a cookie.
The question marks are delicious!
00:44:43.176 --> 00:44:44.760
Milo: What does a Which do?
00:44:44.760 --> 00:44:49.457
Which: Well, I used to help people choose which words to use-
00:44:49.457 --> 00:44:54.266
Which were the most proper and fitting words
for any and all occasions.
00:44:54.266 --> 00:44:58.006
But when Rhyme and Reason were banished-
00:44:58.006 --> 00:45:00.179
Milo: Rhyme? And Reason?
00:45:00.179 --> 00:45:04.756
Which: Yes, Milo. When the two kings had their terrible quarrel-
00:45:04.756 --> 00:45:10.970
(Adventerous Music Begins)
00:45:10.970 --> 00:45:18.093
Which: When King Azaz insisted that words were far more important than numbers,
00:45:18.093 --> 00:45:22.467
and hence his kingdom was truly the greater,
00:45:22.467 --> 00:45:28.423
and when Mathemagician claimed that numbers
were much more important than words,
00:45:28.423 --> 00:45:34.142
and therefore his kingdom was supreme,
why then naturally,
00:45:34.142 --> 00:45:41.043
they asked the Princess of Sweet Rhyme, and the Princess of Pure Reason to settle the question.
00:45:41.043 --> 00:45:46.306
Milo: And what did they decide? What is the most important? Words or numbers?
00:45:46.306 --> 00:45:52.741
Which: The princesses decided that words and numbers are of equal value.
00:45:52.741 --> 00:45:57.445
Tock: In the cloak of knowledge, one is the warp
and the other in the woof.
00:45:57.445 --> 00:46:03.565
Which: But you see Milo,
this decision infuriated the two kings,
00:46:03.565 --> 00:46:14.054
and they banished the princesses to the
Castle in the Air. (Dramatic Music Plays)
00:46:14.054 --> 00:46:17.808
And I was thrown into this dungeon.
00:46:17.808 --> 00:46:21.890
Tock: And that's why people don't seem to care anymore which words they use,
00:46:21.890 --> 00:46:23.956
as long as they use lots of 'em.
00:46:23.956 --> 00:46:28.966
Milo: And that's why there's no rhyme or reason around here, and everybody thinks he's so good!
00:46:28.966 --> 00:46:37.485
Hey! Maybe we can rescue them, and rescue you too Mrs. Faintly...in about six million years.
00:46:37.485 --> 00:46:39.422
Soldier L: Ah, there you are.
Soldier M: Where have you been?
00:46:39.422 --> 00:46:42.253
Soldier N: Been looking all over for you.
Soldier O: Royal banquet is about to begin.
00:46:42.253 --> 00:46:44.402
Soldier P: Soup's on.
00:46:44.402 --> 00:46:47.806
Milo: I still have to serve my sentence
of six million years in prison.
00:46:47.806 --> 00:46:50.375
Soldier L: No time for sentences.
Soldier M: No time for words.
00:46:50.375 --> 00:46:53.445
Soldier N: Condemn boy to hearty meal.
Soldier O: Prisons are for the birds.
00:46:53.445 --> 00:46:55.286
Soldier P: Jailbirds.
00:46:56.271 --> 00:46:58.730
Soldier L: Mustn't keep Azaz waiting.
Soldier M: Things get hungry, too.
00:46:58.730 --> 00:47:02.160
Soldier N: Royal banquet's just beginning.
Soldier O: Just in time for royal stew.
00:47:02.160 --> 00:47:03.251
Soldier P: Chow (Ciao).
00:47:03.251 --> 00:47:07.232
Milo: Goodbye Mrs. Macabre, don't worry.
I'll find a way to rescue you.
00:47:07.232 --> 00:47:09.742
(Cheerful Music)
00:47:09.742 --> 00:47:13.341
Tock: Bye, Faintly. We'll be back.

(Royal Trumpets Sound)
00:47:25.778 --> 00:47:31.374
Soldier: His Majesty, the Supreme Ruler of Semantics,
Most Eminent Chieftain of Participles,
00:47:31.374 --> 00:47:38.110
Lord and Master of Words, Super Sovereign of Syntax,
Chief Potentate of Adverbs and Prepositions.
00:47:38.110 --> 00:47:41.972
(Soldier P Whizzing to Grab Chair)
King Azaz the Unabridged.
00:47:41.972 --> 00:47:45.144
Milo: If you please, sir.
(Azaz Bristles At "Sir")
00:47:45.144 --> 00:47:49.648
Milo: Your majesty. My name is Milo,
and this is Tock, my watchdog.
00:47:49.648 --> 00:47:52.098
And we've been sentenced to six million years for-
00:47:52.098 --> 00:47:58.546
Azaz: Ahhh! Six million?
That's not a sentence, that's a number.
00:47:58.546 --> 00:48:06.858
It's against the law to mention numbers here in Dictionopolis. Words are the only things that matter.
00:48:06.858 --> 00:48:08.582
Milo: I'm sorry your kingship, sir.
00:48:08.582 --> 00:48:11.430
Azaz: After all, me boy-
00:48:11.430 --> 00:48:16.179
(Singing) You couldn't have one fine day
without the "day," could you?
00:48:16.179 --> 00:48:20.583
You couldn't have tea for two
without the "tea," could you?
00:48:20.583 --> 00:48:25.529
You couldn't have three blind mice,
without the "mice," could you?
00:48:25.529 --> 00:48:32.941
So you see, Milo, words are really, very valuable things.
00:48:32.941 --> 00:48:38.917
If you think a great thought, how do you write it down?
Words!
00:48:38.917 --> 00:48:44.562
If you spot a brush fire, how do you warn the town?
Words!
00:48:44.562 --> 00:48:53.112
If you have opinions, how do you speak your piece?
If you rent a castle, how do you read your lease?
00:48:53.112 --> 00:49:04.164
If you know a good joke, how do you tell a friend?
Words, words! That's how.
00:49:04.164 --> 00:49:08.168
Words in a word are amazing. You can read 'em,
you can write 'em, you can sing 'em,
00:49:08.168 --> 00:49:14.057
and recite 'em, underline them. Misdefine them.
They're amazing!
00:49:14.057 --> 00:49:16.590
Words in a word are fantastic!
00:49:16.590 --> 00:49:18.802
You can hint 'em, you can say 'em,
you can print 'em, you can pray 'em.
00:49:18.802 --> 00:49:24.470
Emphasize them and despise them. They're fantastic!
00:49:24.470 --> 00:49:29.533
String them into sentences and thoughts profound.
00:49:29.533 --> 00:49:36.346
We'll abound, in a symphony of spoken sound,
truth is found, beauty crowned.
00:49:36.346 --> 00:49:39.287
In other words,
words in a word are delicious!
00:49:39.287 --> 00:49:41.851
You can taste 'em, you can treat 'em,
you can waste 'em, you can 'eat em.
00:49:41.851 --> 00:49:48.925
And digest them, I suggest them!
They're delicious!
00:49:48.925 --> 00:49:53.334
(King Sighs) Words.
(Music Ends Dramatically)
00:49:53.334 --> 00:50:01.601
Azaz: Speechers, speechers. Time for speeches.
You my boy, as our guest, may speak first.
00:50:05.170 --> 00:50:12.685
Milo (clears throat): Your Majesty, uh Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to take this opportunity-
00:50:12.685 --> 00:50:14.696
Azaz (claps): Enough, next.
00:50:14.696 --> 00:50:17.659
Tock: Soup bones, dog biscuits,
porter house steak, carpet slippers.
00:50:17.659 --> 00:50:21.724
Humbug: Roast turkey, mashed potatoes,
vanilla ice cream.
00:50:21.724 --> 00:50:23.207
Soldier L: Veal Cutlet Parmesan.
00:50:23.207 --> 00:50:24.678
Soldier M: Eggplant Florentine.
00:50:24.678 --> 00:50:26.430
Soldier N: Eggs goldenrod.
00:50:26.430 --> 00:50:28.315
Soldier O: Jones sausage, "reosh."
00:50:28.315 --> 00:50:34.026
Azaz: Pate de foie gras, soupe a l'oignon, faisan sous cloche, salade endive, fromages et fruits et demi-tasse."
00:50:34.026 --> 00:50:43.058
(Servants Marching,
Music in Rhythm with Chewing)
00:50:46.585 --> 00:50:49.702
Food (whispering): Your majesty, ladies and-
00:50:49.702 --> 00:50:55.575
Milo: But that's my speech!
I didn't know I was going to have to eat my words.
00:50:55.575 --> 00:51:00.689
King (chewing): Of- of course you do.
That's what we're all doing.
00:51:00.689 --> 00:51:04.106
(Chews). You, you, you should have made a tastier speech.
00:51:04.106 --> 00:51:08.461
(Gasps). I seem to have a touch of indigestion.
00:51:08.461 --> 00:51:10.940
Milo: Perhaps you've eaten too much too quickly.
00:51:10.940 --> 00:51:16.441
Azaz: Too be sure, too much, too quickly.
I most certainly haven't eaten too little, too slowly.
00:51:16.441 --> 00:51:21.501
Or too much, too slowly. Or too little, too quickly.
Or taken all day to eat nothing.
00:51:21.501 --> 00:51:23.767
Or eaten everything in no time at all.
(Chair Creaks)
00:51:23.767 --> 00:51:25.564
Milo: But wouldn't that be just as bad?
00:51:25.564 --> 00:51:31.691
Azaz: You mean just as good.
Things which are "just as bad" also are equally good.
00:51:31.691 --> 00:51:35.078
Try to look at the bright side of things, Milo.
00:51:35.078 --> 00:51:39.728
Milo: I don't know what side of anything to look at.
Everything is so confusing!
00:51:39.728 --> 00:51:42.149
And all your words only make things worse.
00:51:42.149 --> 00:51:45.545
Azaz: How true.
Words seem to have lost their meaning.
00:51:45.545 --> 00:51:50.341
Milo: But there must be something you can do about it.
Couldn't you pass a law- or something?
00:51:50.341 --> 00:51:56.058
Azaz: We have almost as many laws as we have words,
but the laws don't make any sense either.
00:51:56.058 --> 00:52:03.884
Milo: Perhaps you might allow- I mean uh, because you are a wise and -and righteous and just king,
00:52:03.884 --> 00:52:07.843
you might allow...Rhyme and- and Reason to return?
00:52:07.843 --> 00:52:11.064
Azaz: How nice that would be...
00:52:11.064 --> 00:52:16.130
No! No, no never!
Not while that stubborn brother of mine...
00:52:17.484 --> 00:52:22.077
(*Gently) Things always did go very well
when they were here.
00:52:22.077 --> 00:52:23.536
(*Gruffly) I won't allow it!
00:52:23.536 --> 00:52:25.674
Milo: Why not?
00:52:25.674 --> 00:52:31.376
Azaz: (Gently) Why not?
(Gruffly) Why not, indeed!
00:52:31.376 --> 00:52:35.097
Azaz: (Gently) Yes. Why not?
My boy,
00:52:35.097 --> 00:52:43.659
I cannot tell you how it would solve all our problems,
if only you could bring back Rhyme and Reason.

Bee: Parsimonious word miser, is it?
00:52:58.466 --> 00:53:04.363
Azaz: Perhaps someone else among my faithful court would volunteer to join this brave boy
00:53:04.363 --> 00:53:08.333
in his efforts to rescue Rhyme and Reason?
00:53:10.164 --> 00:53:13.746
(Music of Dismay Plays)
Azaz: No volunteers?

(Humbug Snores)
Bee: Insectious Humbugious, ey? We'll see.
00:53:22.617 --> 00:53:28.242
Azaz: Wonderful! A volunteer!
Congratulations.
00:53:28.242 --> 00:53:32.819
Milo: That's great! With the Humbug's help,
I know we can do it!
00:53:32.819 --> 00:53:40.245
Azaz: Goodbye, my boy. Here, in this bag,
are all the words and ideas I know.
00:53:40.245 --> 00:53:45.039
With them, you may ask all the questions which
have never been answered.
00:53:45.039 --> 00:53:48.386
And answer all the questions which
have never been asked.
00:53:48.386 --> 00:53:54.653
All the great books of the past,
and all the ones yet to come, are in that bag.
00:53:54.653 --> 00:54:03.348
Go now. But remember, use these words well,
and there is no obstacle you cannot overcome.
00:54:03.348 --> 00:54:05.596
Azaz: Goodbye.
Milo/Tock: Goodbye!
00:54:05.596 --> 00:54:08.736

The wall is absolutely impenetrable.
00:54:44.629 --> 00:54:53.782
However, your heroic effort shall not be unrewarded.
Our eternal gratitude will be yours.
00:54:53.782 --> 00:54:55.150
Shall we start back?
00:54:55.150 --> 00:54:58.070

Milo: Who are you?

Dodecahedron: My angles are many, my sides are not few. I'm the Dodecahedron, and who are you?

Milo: What's a dode-kaheadrun?
00:55:09.872 --> 00:55:14.374
Tock: As I remember it, it's a twelve-sided
mathematical shape.
00:55:14.374 --> 00:55:21.035
Dodecahedron: See for yourself. I usually use one at a time... saves wear and tear.
00:55:21.035 --> 00:55:23.916
By the way, what was your problem?
00:55:23.916 --> 00:55:26.599
Milo: We have to get to Digitopolis to ask the Mathema-
00:55:26.599 --> 00:55:29.646
Dodecahedron: The only way to get there is through the Numbers Mine.
00:55:29.646 --> 00:55:34.353
Milo: Numbers Mine? But we can't get through there.
The entrance is blocked tight.

Tock: Milo, you remember how you
got us out of the Doldrums?

Milo: Yeah, maybe we can think our way through!
00:55:41.462 --> 00:55:43.966
Dodecahedron: Can you remember any mathematics?
00:55:43.966 --> 00:55:49.790
Milo: Let's see. Things that are equal to the same thing are equal to each other.

weren't important or valuable.

Mathemagician: Not important? Not valuable?
00:56:50.659 --> 00:56:52.805
Humbug: It's- it's the Mathemagician.
00:56:52.805 --> 00:57:00.827
Mathemagician: By the 4,827, 659 hairs on my head,
I'll tell you what's important.
00:57:00.827 --> 00:57:06.148
Mathemagician (singing): You couldn't have 1 fine day without the 1, could you?
00:57:06.148 --> 00:57:11.259
You couldn't have tea for 2
without the 2, could you?
00:57:11.259 --> 00:57:18.359
You couldn't have 3 blind mice
without the 3, so you see?
00:57:18.359 --> 00:57:27.572
Numbers are the 4, 5, 6, 7, 8-
Wonders of the World!
00:57:27.572 --> 00:57:33.483
If you had a big plan, how would you know how big?
Numbers!
00:57:33.483 --> 00:57:39.296
If you had a high hope, how would you know how high?
Numbers!
00:57:39.296 --> 00:57:43.506
If you had a deep bog,
how would you know how deep?
00:57:43.506 --> 00:57:47.553
If you had a close call,
how would you know how close?
00:57:47.553 --> 00:57:51.876
If you had a wide choice,
how would you know how wide?
00:57:51.876 --> 00:57:57.825
Numbers! Numbers! That's how!
00:57:57.825 --> 00:58:05.840
Numbers can be decimated, verified, manipulated, carried forward, backward, and replaced.
00:58:05.840 --> 00:58:12.560
Numbers can be added to, subtracted from,
divided into, multiplied by, crossed out, and erased.
00:58:12.560 --> 00:58:19.845
But not with words.
You're stuck with words.
00:58:19.845 --> 00:58:26.276
Words are things you have to keep, have to watch, have to weigh, have to mind, have to know, have to say.
00:58:26.276 --> 00:58:33.060
(Singing) But it's amazing what a digit or two can do.
00:58:33.060 --> 00:58:41.523
Why anything you cannot figure out,
they figure out for you.
00:58:41.523 --> 00:58:45.924
And when troubles mount
and they become too much to bear.
00:58:45.924 --> 00:58:48.947
(Bag Drops Heavily)
Never Fear.
00:58:48.947 --> 00:58:51.895
(Talking) Just divide them and divide them.
00:58:51.895 --> 00:58:57.875
And divide 'em, and divide 'em, and divide 'em, and divide 'em, and divide 'em, until they disappear.
00:58:59.060 --> 00:59:10.460
Nothing counts like numbers. Numbers!
Numbers, wonderful numbers!
00:59:10.460 --> 00:59:15.058
Those Dewey decimal dearies,
square root and mix them in series,
00:59:15.058 --> 00:59:19.889
They give the heart inspiration,
no words can bring such elation!
00:59:19.889 --> 00:59:26.245
1 to 9, they're the most.
Pour the wine, drink a toast to-
00:59:26.245 --> 00:59:31.356
Numbers!
(Music Ends Dramatically)
00:59:32.964 --> 00:59:35.159
Mathemagician: Welcome to my workshop!
00:59:35.159 --> 00:59:37.359
Humbug: Very impressive, Your Majesty.
00:59:37.359 --> 00:59:45.321
But, could you show us the biggest number there is?
Heh, heh. That will give him something to figure out.
00:59:45.321 --> 00:59:47.158
Mathemagician: Very well, Sir Humbug.
00:59:47.158 --> 00:59:50.011
What's the biggest number you can think of?
00:59:50.011 --> 00:59:57.861
Humbug: 9,999,999, 000,999 and 9/10.
00:59:57.861 --> 01:00:01.230
Mathemagician: Very good. Now add 1 to it.
01:00:01.230 --> 01:00:03.131
Humbug: Add 1?
01:00:03.131 --> 01:00:10.500
Mathemagician: Now add 1 to that. Add 1 again. Add 1 again. Add 1 again. Add 1 agai-
01:00:10.500 --> 01:00:13.087
Milo: But he'd never be able to stop that way.
01:00:13.087 --> 01:00:18.532
Mathemagician: Never. For the number you hope for is always at least one more than the one you have.
01:00:18.532 --> 01:00:21.552
And that's so large that if you start saying it yesterday,
01:00:21.552 --> 01:00:25.879
you wouldn't finish 'til tomorrow.
I hope that's clear to you.
01:00:25.879 --> 01:00:29.727
Milo: Nothing's very clear to me.
Here, or in Dictionopolis.
01:00:29.727 --> 01:00:34.235
Mathemagician: (Gruffly) Right! It's all the fault of that wretched brother of mine, King Azaz.
01:00:34.235 --> 01:00:39.664
(Gently) Ever since the little princesses left,
nothing make sense.
01:00:39.664 --> 01:00:41.907
(Gruffly) And it's all his fault!
01:00:41.907 --> 01:00:46.980
Milo: (clears throat) If you please sir,
we'd like to rescue Rhyme and Reason.
01:00:46.980 --> 01:00:52.910
Mathemagician: (Gruffly) Rescue Rhyme and Reason?!
(Gently) Rescue Rhyme and Reason?
01:00:52.910 --> 01:00:58.721
What a wonderful idea!
(Gruffly) Wait, has Azaz agreed to it?
01:00:58.721 --> 01:01:00.262
Tock: Yes sir, he has.
01:01:00.262 --> 01:01:04.125
Mathemagician: Then I don't. We've never agreed on
anything, and we never will.
01:01:04.141 --> 01:01:07.376
Milo: And if I can prove otherwise,
can we have permission to go?
01:01:07.376 --> 01:01:09.589
Mathemagician: Of course, of course.
01:01:09.589 --> 01:01:14.830
Milo: Very well then. Now if Azaz agrees with something, then you disagree, correct?
01:01:14.830 --> 01:01:15.844
Mathemagician: Correct.
01:01:15.844 --> 01:01:20.138
Milo: And anything Azaz disagrees with,
you agree, is that correct?
01:01:20.138 --> 01:01:21.876
Mathemagician: (blowing) Correct.
01:01:21.876 --> 01:01:25.461
Milo: Then each of you agrees that
he will disagree with the other, right?
01:01:25.461 --> 01:01:26.496
Mathemagician: Right.
01:01:26.496 --> 01:01:31.310
Milo: Then you admit that you do agree with Azaz about something. You agree about disagreeing!
01:01:31.310 --> 01:01:33.959
(Surprised Music)
01:01:33.959 --> 01:01:37.143

(Music of Dismay Plays)
01:01:40.969 --> 01:01:45.137
Mathemagician: Again, I want to thank you for showing me how foolish and stupid I've been.

But this gift can supply you with all the numbers, theorems, equations, and mathematical ideas
01:01:52.474 --> 01:01:59.289

Use it well, and there is nothing it can't do for you.
01:01:59.289 --> 01:02:00.599
Milo: Thank you!
01:02:00.599 --> 01:02:03.648
Mathemagician: Goodbye and good luck.
Milo: Goodbye.
01:02:03.648 --> 01:02:06.464

Tock: No, no, no. That's the man I told you about.
That's Chroma the Great.
01:02:34.912 --> 01:02:37.614
The one sane man left in this country.
01:02:37.614 --> 01:02:42.048
Milo: You mean the one who conducts rainbows,
and sunrises and sunsets and things?
01:02:42.048 --> 01:02:48.538
Tock: Right. We're lucky. It looks like he's ready to conduct today's sunset. Watch!
