Have that errand Didn't go as planned That ever happened to you, Jets I was like, I'm not going to be on the show I'm not going to be on the show It didn't go as planned That ever happened to you, Jets No Never No, never Never Well, this errand doesn't go as planned Bandits head it out with the girls They're gonna pick up take away That's dinner for the night They go to pick up take away And, well They have to wait for the spring rolls Dun dun dun. How do you fill five minutes of time with two tiny children? The answer is you don't have to for they will fill it for you. The question of today's episode for the real life is will bandit survive? Will bandit survive waiting for the spring rolls on takeaway? Oh, he's all episode is a favorite. He's very confident that he's going to. Oh, man, he walked into it with the plans like you would see at every. He did. He did. Like every parent like, oh, we're waiting for the spring rolls. I want to sit down and read the newspaper. No, dude, come on. There's two little girls. Got other ideas. All right. So some favorite bits. So many good ones. Basically classic situation. Go to pick up something. Your takeout food is not correct. You have to wait for them to correct it and fix it. Which honestly, to find that out at the restaurant, always a win. So like, you know, it's you get home and you find out and you're like, oh, well, that's just the way it is. This is it now. Reading someone else's food. I don't care that it's wrong. Right? Honestly, I'm just surprised that he checked. But I guess he really wanted the the egg rolls. I guess I guess if I wanted to something special, then I would probably check. Right. 100%. So in this episode, it's basically what happens to a parent when you have to fill the time and it's totally dead time and you're just sitting there. It's basically waiting room time. What happens in a waiting room? Our first nothing good working in a hospital, working in an ER, nothing good. The age old adage idle hands are the devil's play thing. Is like just comes to mind, right? It's just right there. The girls are wound up. Like my kids, I mean, it's I guess depends on what the errand is, but like my kids usually get pretty wound up about coming coming out and running an errand with me. Particularly my boys, like they enjoy that one on one time. Or one two or one on three time as opposed to one on six. It's dividing conquer, baby. So like bandits, bandits, we're gonna read a newspaper. He's ready to chill. He's he's expecting full compliance, but the kids, they just have all the kids. So what you know, the best part about it is it's a dad, right? There is no compliance because there were no rules laid down. Honestly, that part. And honestly, sometimes that's a late, that's the less, not in this, not in this episode, but sometimes that's a least stressful option is like the less rules you have, the less rules you break, you know. Yeah, like apparently one of one, like if you're good with like the freedom as a situation, it's like, it's not like the worst thing as long as you're monitoring. Like if you're there, if you're present, the freedom is actually great. You want to, as parents, you want to let our kids be as free as they can. The more, yeah, the more you make rules, the more you have to enforce rules, I mean, you don't enforce rules you make. Oh, that's the worst. That's the worst message your kids, you know, could get. So you don't want to send that message. Right. Sorry, I was going to let you fill that. I just need a little sip of water there. Yeah, I was sidetracked doing something else. I wasn't actually watching you. So I apologize for that. That's my bad. Hey, man, it's all good. Our first favorite bit is just what happens naturally as, you know, now we're sitting, they've gone in, don't have the spring rolls. Of course, questions start. And what can we do starts? And the sitting down and reading the newspaper is not going to happen. So this is just your intro into the taste, the flavor of what is happening to band it with with with Bluey and Bingo as they have to wait for the spring rolls. You turn it off. Why are some like letters, but other plants are good. Uh, well, can I play with these? Uh, just two kids. The shop guys need them. How about three? Two. Dad, I'm thirsty. But I just, I'll never mind. It's the bouncing. It's the bouncing back and forth for me, really. It's amazing. Yeah. And it's really quite natural. Right. It just is. You know, you, you get a drink for one of them and the other one's not thirsty. And then the other one has another question. I love that. I love Bingo's. Like it tetsley. Like deep questions that they're actually pretty deep. They hit you with some, why are some plants food? Like lettuce and some plants aren't food. It's a fair question. Like the grass that's grown on the sidewalk looks like lettuce, you know, their dogs can eat the lettuce. It's going to eat them. No, that's not food. Wait, why? Oh, man. Um, so you're already, sorry, I'm, I'm, I'm, you're good. Googling whether or not the, the Chinese or whatever it is on the sign is like a real thing. Of course, so that's what we should do. I'm blue and the light. What we should give you the deep easter egg. They are gene wang guan in China again or gene wang guan or keen ocan in Japanese. It says individually they break down as gold, king, and crown combined. It means crown or royalty died. I'm so the fool for his translates directly to the golden crown, which makes sense because that's what the GC and the golden crown. So, I'm sorry, look at that. Oh my gosh, it's translated right below it. I didn't even. It does say golden crown. I was just going to let you roll the blood. Dude, you would hope that's what it would be because in English, it's designed clearly says golden crown. I didn't even see that. I was so distracted with the Chinese. Hey, man, it's a question. Has anyone ever called a phone number on the front of the restaurant? Oh, there's only six characters. Yeah, but I don't know what all Australian phone numbers work. I don't really know either. And it's interesting that we're just going off here, guys. We're just staring at the screenshot, but it's interesting that they have a bat on a Chinese restaurant. They have a what? A bat. That's a bat. Was this one released during COVID? That's a bat. Yeah, it's a bat. It's a bat wrapped up in his little wheelings. What do you think it was? I'm not so wait, is it a panda in a in a girl? I always use it could be grapes with a leaf for all I know. I got nothing. Oh, you can't you can't you can't I don't really know. There's nothing I can do to make it bigger for you. No, if you're seeing a bat, bro, I get it. Like maybe it's okay. So golden crown. You guys watch the episodes and in the episode drop post. Tell me if you think that's a panda bear in like a what do they call those things? Like what do what do like a Mona? Like what are the karate people wear? Yeah, sure. Oh, a ghee. Maybe or is it a bat wrapped in its wings? I think it's is it. I think it's from distance. A cluster of grapes. Wow. Okay. Well, we need to reel that. Come for the come for the blue. We stay for the content. All right. All that to say. You got the the classic small Chinese restaurant front to a building in a strip mall or or on the on a the shop section of town. And it's just one little table with one little chair out front. And that's their whole scene off to the left. You have a little faucet which you know make sense like that there was never any question about whether you're not you're going to use the faucet since it's it's a roll of dogs. That's right there. Yeah. Yeah. Like all the dogs everyone is assumes the dogs will use the faucet. That's where you can you can drink from the faucet. You can bathe in the faucet. The faucets for the dogs. It's an outdoor faucet. And then that's it. Like there's a bush out front like to the right. It's a take away restaurant. Yeah. It's your general takeaway restaurant. And in this it's the back and forth and back and forth of not not so much the kids. The kids are just being kids. It's abandoned having to go over to bingo. No, you can't to plant over to blue. No, you can't take all their menus back over to bingo. Yes, you could have a drink like it's as this constant back and forth. And it only escalates as every parent trying to survive this is just like we're good now, right? Can we just you know what? Can we take a second? Can we take a stop? So what naturally unfolds is blueie gets the menus and now blueie and bingo are going to have this little interaction where they pretend to play take away restaurant because they have menus and they have a table and they're out of takeaway restaurant. Right. I think we restaurant so so naturally bandits mistake was checking on the egg rolls because that's where he's right now. So they kick banded out of the seat. Banded kids hit the seat because bingo the customer is going to sit in the seat and she's going to order takeaway from blueie and he says I'm going to go check out this big rolls. So now kids are left alone. They're left alone. There's no one to tell them they can't or shouldn't. Like it's just it's pretty great. Need it for real life but I'm hungry. Oh they're not ready yet. Hey, Mochina. There's my team. Okay, okay, come here mate. How's that kiddo? Good but I need to do a wee I'm thirsty. Oh man. Okay. I'm a little bit soft sticks. Well, it's a bit soft so they're trying to play pretend. Bingo's already had a warning that whatever was in the bag is too spicy for her. She's hungry. She takes a bite and it's too hot so she drops the food on the ground. Spilling it all, bingo banded walks out. He sees it. He's like oh no he goes to take a step, slips on the wet on the help me here. Wet menus, slips on the wet menus and runs and goes and takes bingo over. No no. Bingo looks at her dad and spits the spicy food in the face. That's right. We don't know but that's what happened. I forgot the spitting. That was the favorite bits. Maybe like maybe this is all the difficulty too. Like it's all happening all at once. Like the favorite bits are the unfolding of the difficulty of waiting with beautiful little children in a dead like just a dead zone. As they're as they're waiting and experiencing this difficulty, then you get this beautiful right dollar buck a moment. We're banded. First of all, I'm sorry. Like straight up. If we've been waiting and we're hungry for dinner and then you busted in a dinner and you started eating it and then you spit it out and dump it all the ground like browel like straight up straight up. Go to the car. Sit alone with your thoughts. Yeah. I'm losing it at that. And this is where everyone's like, bed, it's a bit dead. Like no, I'd be losing it right now. Like he's managing it. Like I'd be losing it. Like that's like he's like, oh, I'm going to be concerned about my daughter who ate spicy food. And I'm like, yeah, that's what you get. We've learned a valuable lesson. You learned, I told you not to eat this spicy food. Why are you eating any of the food? Why is it on the ground? But banded focuses in right on his daughter's need. There's now a spicy food to get a drink. Oh gosh. Then she has to pee. And we're walking around chopsticks that are about saying, I'm a walrus. It's so real life. This is like truth. This is so. Oh my gosh. I need to broaden my book, my Australian vocabulary. Why? No web story good enough for you? No, no, no. They have a, every time I start thinking about it, I almost started saying what they say. I don't know what you're saying. The words, so I'm sorry. There's a word in Australia that you use. It's truth. They say, screws. It's like a, it's like a, it's like a, it's, it's used in many different ways. And the, like, depending on how exactly the context kind of, it's like go birds. You know, like, it can mean a lot of things. Sure. You know, it's like John. But like they could say, screws, like they're surprised. Are you serious? They can say, screws, like that's awesome. You know, like it can mean a lot of different things. And so it's like, like, or it's like you said a thing that's true, but it's also crazy. And you said like, screws, you get it. So it's kind of usable like that. I just almost said it. And then I was like, wait, I'm going to use this wrong. But it does feel appropriate to say. So, okay. Thanks. Thanks for that moment. So our last and final clip, it's a little bit, it's a little bit longer. But it just captures just the chaos, the chaos continuing to unfold this entire episode of chaos. And it's amazing, which is why it's just pure simple fun. I don't, honestly, I'm not going to actually forget where this clip ends. So it might actually contain bits of resolution. Look, it's so good. Now just let it happen. What is resolution here? Yeah, that's true. There is resolution. The third and final clip. It's a shorter episode today. Let it play through the resolution. I think so. It's a little bit. I'm going to put this on a little bit. Don't even think about getting under that. It's water everywhere. Vingo, are you almost finished? No, yes. Push away. It's a little one. The birds. Have it start eating the food. It's too spicy for you. What's happening? We can never stop this all. First of any, it's the birds. It does nothing. How did you finish yet, Vingo? Oh my god. This is a really long-weeping one. Vigilous. Kill me. Moment of final victory. Dad. Yes, mate? If we're not going to have babies, we're not going to have babies. We had the first baby. Oh, pause it right there. If that is not a beautifully existential deep question, that comes in the middle of this chaos. Of course they do. These moments only happen to my wife and my family, by the way. For some reason, it's always get my wife when she's alone and doesn't have my help. With the crazy whack-a-doo. Especially at bedtime. When they become dehydrated philosophers, they need a drink of water. I asked you about the manual. I asked you about the philosophers. Dad, who made God? No, no, no son. I'm thirsty. I'll get you a drink. But this question is great. And I would like to answer this question. God made them. So there you go. Bingo. Which one of the answer that for you? God made man. That is the answer to your question. That is what happened with creation. Every second scientist think they figure something out about life. They are infinitely farther away from having any idea how to do anything in the world realm of creation. And it was God. It was God. So thank you for asking that deep question, Bingo. But this clip is not over yet, though. It continues. Shall I continue? I was waiting. Well, I was just going to just like clarify the scene. What you have now is finally if it takes a pause. The food has been packed up by birds. He's going to have to clean that up. He got the water turned off finally. They've taken their bush we. He's just finally sat down after it's up managing this. Tons of chaos, right? And as he's managed this, tons of chaos. This scene can see and finally continues into this rest. Okay, forget the spring rolls. Let's just get out of here. That takes one step. He takes one step in the whole bag. Flies up in the air. He is all the ground. The ground. The ground is all every single bit of food that was in the bag is now on the ground. And then this happens. Sorry, you spring rolls. Be five more minutes. What is a whole other Chinese. No, wait a second. Pause. Here's the craziest thing about the scene. This lady in the old to Chinese restaurant walks out of the Chinese restaurant to a grown man on the ground covered in food foods everywhere. All of her menu set her in the little outside holder on the ground. The chairs turned over and this man is lying on the ground not moving. She's like, sorry about the way. Would you like a for it? You can't. Can't wait. That's your reaction. Do you still do it on the ground anyway? Right. The entire scene takes place with no acknowledge. We have been laying on the ground covered in food. Eyes closed. Amazing. About the way. Would your kids like some fortune cookies? Thank you. What's happened out here? They're biscuit. Is that man alive? There's a little paper inside. I'm writing on the paper. What does it say? It says, Flour is my bloom again, but a person never has a chance to be young again. What is that mean? He looks up toward the heavens. It means it's showering time. A real lie? Many real lies. Go on. Oh, that looks fun. Yeah. I love that last one. Yeah, it's good. And this is what this is where it does, it does take that turn into a there's dollar buck moments where bandit had been this whole time like we don't wet dogs don't go in the car and they drove to the takeaways store. So even though they wanted to in the beginning just kind of like dive in the water, which you feel like might have been like a fun thing for the kids to do, but at the same time, then they're getting into the car grows and wet. Look, we've all been there. The lake, the pool, the ocean, you know, it's a whole situation. It's a whole situation. But the realization when he reads the paper, right, the reminder that, you know, you're only young once and there's a there's something there's something interesting about youth. And it takes us right into the gospels. I think when you start to think about what Jesus says, particularly about children and one of those things is if you miss a child, you should, you should be better if you just jumped into a lake with a giant rock attached here, neck and drowned. But that's not what I was going to go for. I'm just mentioning that. Dispensely that that's all different from Jesus. But he says when when they're the disciples are trying to kind of usher the children away and create space for Jesus to teach and answer questions. And Jesus says to suffer the little children to come into me and forbid them not for such as the kingdom of heaven. There's a connection to the faith and the joy that a child has that is real and tangible that Jesus wants to connect with. And that's really the connection here is that there's there's a beauty in the simple fun that a child can have from a water spiket. And those moments tend to be fleeting. Am I hitting it so far? Absolutely. And it brings you back to one of my favorite quotes. This is one of my favorite quotes by G.K. Chasterton from his seminal work orthodoxy. And in this quote he's addressing the reality of the fact that a child can ask a question over and over again or even enjoy the same activity over and over again. We as adults seem to have this problem with what we would consider monotony or just banal tasks that are just the same or common. And this quote just kind of goes right to that. It's really good. He says, because children have a bounding vitality because they are in spirit fierce and free. Therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say do it again. And the grown up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown up people are not strong enough to exalt in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough to exalt in monotony. It is possible that God says every morning, do it again to the sun and every evening, do it again to the moon. It may not be automatic necessity that makes all days is alike. It may be that God makes every day's easy separately but has never got tired of making them. It may be that he has the eternal appetite of infancy, but we have sinned and grown old. And our father is younger than we. It's a great quote. It's a great quote that speaks to that super awesome reality that there is such beauty in what God does. Here's such beauty in what he does over and over again. And the joy that he takes in it is something that we do not accurately understand because he can do the same thing and find the same joy, the eternal beauty and joy in that thing over and over and over again. Because our sin has caused us to see the repetition in necessary common or just the monotony in doing anything multiple times, we see it as laborious and drudgery and that's what we see. But when God is able to do something, and just like the little kids wanting to do something, asking the same questions, asking a thousand questions and never getting tired of asking a question, even if they don't even fully understand the answers or get the answer to the question they asked, just that thirst and joy that is present. And it's just a testament to what sin does. It breaks us down and we lose the joy in the mundane when it is very possible that is never what could happen to God. There's nothing mundane about what he sees and interacts with and the joy that he feels. That's so true. And this episode does encapsulate that extremely well. So truly does. You all didn't think we could do it. You didn't think we could do it, but we did. But there's something. I mean, there's just little nuggets. There's little nuggets in all of these little blueie episodes, even the ones that are so purely just entertaining or something in there that's really good and valuable. Well, that's been another episode of Blueie in the Bible. Hey, oh, hey, oh, I'm sorry. Because we rushed through it, I do want to say, Jesse, could you just play the unicorst sounds just so everybody could be satiated? And where should I get? Where should I get? There we go. Followed by. Catch you on the flip side. Will I? Catch you on the left side. Will I? Man, we'll get there. We'll get to unicorst. But that's it. That's it. I'm going to say at the end of every episode, kids. Wait, I didn't do that right. No, we caught them on the flip side before accidentally. Yeah. Yeah. Wait, what do we say for? I don't know what we say. Catch you on the flip side. Will I? Yeah, I know. I know. We're just going to get unicorns. Hey, do I should I kid? Right. That was for. That was for. Wait, what do we do for what? Favorite bits. Oh, biscuits. Nope. I don't think we have one. We don't have one. We don't have one for favorite bits. That's the difficulty. It's okay. All biscuits is difficulty. Why should I care is the dollar bucks? It's all good. This is all good. That's actually all of them. Well, we like to say that every episode, we'll see you next time, kids. Catch you on the flip side. Will I? We are.
