Superbook (2011–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - A Giant Adventure - full transcript
During a school band audition, Chris loses the courage to play his guitar in front of the crowd. Superbook whisks the kids off to meet another youngster who had to face his own "Giant" in a moment of crisis. Chris, Joy and Gizmo befriend the young David, who is taking bread to his brothers, who are on the front lines, fighting the Philistines. Because David is small, everyone laughs when he says he will face the Israelite's fiercest enemy Goliath, the Giant of Gath. David is ultimately able to slay the giant because God is on his side in this battle. Chris realizes that if he faces his own "goliath" (playing before a live crowd) and plays for God, there is no way he can't win. Superbook whisks the kids home and Chris is able to ace the audition and earn the position in the band. When God is on your side there is nothing you can't achieve.
Aaaa!
I've got you, little one.
Be brave. He has to go
through me first.
It's ok, little one.
Another one wander
away from you, David?
Eliab! You should have seen!
This lion came out of nowhere,
but I beat him!
I have no time for your stories.
Father wants you.

Samuel!
The great prophet!
I told you he couldn't be
the one you sought.
He's a child!
Oh, look again at
my eldest, Eliab.
No.
The Lord has chosen this one.
David, you have been chosen to
one day be king of Israel.
What? I've never heard...
What makes you so special?
Woo hoo!
Oh, that's great, Chris!
You're gonna win for sure!
Hey!
I'm going to be the guitarist
for our school band, Quantum.
Why are you even
bothering to audition?
Hey!
You sound ok out here, Quantum,
but that's different from
playing in front of a crowd!
Um, Mr Johnson?
The first auditioner for school
band guitarist is Chris Quantum!
Go ahead, Chris,
show 'em what you can do.
C'mon, Chris, what are you
doing? You play all the time!
Yeah, but not in front of...
You know... people!
I don't ever want to see
this guitar again!
Chris! It is so good
to have you home!
Chris walked out
on his audition.
Oh, you said you
wouldn't tell anyone.
What!? I only told Gizmo. He's a
robot; he doesn't count!
I have what you need right here!
C'mon, Chris, once Gizmo
fixes your string,
there's still time to go back
and finish the audition.
Uh unh, forget it.
It was your idea for me to
audition in the first place.
And it was a bad idea.
I'm through playing forever.
You know you don't mean that.
You just had a little stage
fright, that's all.
No, Todd was right. I can
play by myself, but...
I haven't got what it takes
to make the band and
play for crowds of people.
Superbook!
Oh no! Do not take that thing
out! I feel motion sick already.
Chris, could I stay
home just this once?
Aaaa!
I am taking you to
meet a great hero...
one who has been given
special gifts from God.
May you have eyes to see
and ears to hear.
Superbook, we don't have
time for this!
Giz, does anything
look familiar?
Hmm, I know I have
seen you before.
Aaa! I am registering a strange
creature. Warning! Warning!
Ha! Can it, Gizmo. Just
do an info scan
and tell us where...
and when we are.
My geo sensors indicate
we are outside Bethlehem.
I detect two armies about
8 miles south southwest.
And we are approximately
three thousand years ago.
Armies, hunh?
That could be cool!
Armies aren't cool!
Would an attacking bear be cool?
Why would a bear attack us?
Don't ask me. Ask the bear!
Bear!
Gizmo, assume defensive posture!
I want my mommy!
He meant defensive for US!
Aaaaa!
Unh!
Whoa, you killed
the bear with THAT?
I've gotta get me one of those!
Nice to see that my defensive
posture still works.
Yeah, Giz, you were a BIG help!
Who are YOU?
I'm David.
I'm Joy.
Hey, I'm Chris.
I'm hungry. What?
I haven't eaten today.
Hey, thanks for the save.
You might want to stay away
from bears in the future.
Where are you headed?
I'm on my way to
bring food to my brothers
who are fighting
against the Philistines.
Excellent! Hey guys,
let's check it out!
He won't play his guitar
in front of a few kids,
but he'll walk right
into a war zone.
Sure, why not?
So, have you ever been in
a battle like your brothers?
My family thinks I'm
too small to fight.
They think I'm only good enough
for tending sheep.
Hey, Gizmo, listen up.
You gotta figure out a way
to get us home!
Chris has to get back to school
before the band audition is over
Joy, you know we cannot go home
until Superbook takes us!
Ah, but there must be some way
we've never tried.
Giz, it's important.
Well, we could experiment with
Einstein's theory of relativity.
Really?
If I travel faster than
the speed of light...
I should move forward in time.
Whoa-oah!
Your friend is a strange one.
Oh, you don't know
the half of it!
The Israelite camp is
just below us.
Can he disguise himself?
I do not need a disguise!
I am proud of what I am!
If you go down there
in your armor,
they will force you to fight.
Fight?
Why I'm just a poor
shepherd boy.
Cute!
Chicken!
What was that?
Hear me, hear me, Israel ants.
Send your best hero.
If you win in one-on-one combat,
we and our gods will surrender
to you and your God.
You don't look so tough.
I'll take you on with one hand.
If you think I meant fight me...
I meant fight Goliath,
the giant of Gath.
Bow down at my feet, oh Israel.
Nothing can save you now. Your
God can do nothing for you.
David, no!
What is the matter
with all of you?
Why won't anyone fight him?
Can't the armies of our God
take on one man?
What are you doing here,
baby brother?
Eliab!
We have no use for you.
Go tend your flock.
Wha... what did I do?
I was only asking!
Leave! This is no
place for a child!
Doesn't the army know
why they're here?
Is there not a cause?
If none of them will fight
this giant, then I will.
What?
David, you don't
have to do this.
I've been chosen by the Lord,
and my time has come.
Our armies are paralyzed.
They send out their strongest,
and we send out ours.
He who wins the battle
wins the war.
Do we not have anyone
willing to fight this warrior?
My Lord, someone is here to
challenge the Philistine giant.
Uh, he himself is a giant...
among sheep!
David, the shepherd boy!
This is no time for
jesting. Take the boy away.
My lord, I am not
afraid of any Philistine.
What can one child do?
What can one child NOT do
when that child goes with God?
My lord,
God has already delivered me
from bears and from lions.
He gave me the strength
to overcome them.
He too will give me strength
over this Philistine.
You would stand alone?
No, God will be with me.
As you wish.
Oh, this is madness!
Enough! It is as I say.
Tomorrow you will meet Goliath
on the battlefield.
David, may God go with you.
Ah, that's pretty cool.
Do you play?
Ah, used to.
Why did you stop?
Uh... people might not
like the way I play.
Well, who do you play for?
Other people?
Me, I play for the one that gave
me the skill. I play for God.
Ohh... I kinda wish I had
my guitar now.
Thanks, Giz.
All right! That kicked!
You play as if touched
by the Creator Himself!
Thanks! So do you.
And if He gave you
those gifts, Chris,
should you not use them
to His glory?
I suppose.
David...
if everyone else doesn't think
you can win against Goliath,
what makes you so sure you can?
I know in my heart
God is with me.
He'll give me strength
when I need it most.
It is just like music. If you
use the gifts He's given you,
you never need to be
afraid to play.
So, if God gives you
the ability,
then the size of the giant...
or the size of the audience...
doesn't matter?
I think you're getting it.
This is not going to work!
I can't wear the armor.
Whoa... unh!
All right.
Then at least take my shield.
The Lord will be my shield.
He looks so alone out there.
Oh... he's not alone.
Sooo... do we have anyone
to battle Goliath today?
I'm taking numbers.
I will fight him.
I'm sorry. You're so... small.
Come on, people! I ask for a
warrior and you send me this?
Do you fear the least of Israel?
All right then!
Goliath! Breakfast is served.
My brother is going to
get himself killed.
Maybe I should....
This day, Goliath, the Lord will
deliver you into my hands!!
Soon the bodies of your army
will be food for the
birds of the air.
For that, child, I'll
slice you open,
then grind your bones
until they are dust!!
Stand still so I can kill you.
NO! The battle is the Lord's.
You will not strike me today.
You're going to die.
You come to me with
sword and spear,
but I come to you in the
name of the Lord of Hosts.
Your God is weak!!
Aaaah!
Ooof!
My God is not weak.
Gahhhh!
He did it!
Woohoo!
Yes. Excellent!
He succeeded!
Did you see him?
That was my brother David
who killed Goliath!
Everybody said he
couldn't do it,
but he did it with God's help!
Chris! It's happening!
We're headed back!
Ohhh, I hate this part!
Are we where I think we are?
Oh, the auditions are over.
Well, who do you play
for? I play for God.
So, if God gives
you the ability...
then the size of the giant...
or the size of the audience...
doesn't matter?
Gizmo, my guitar.
Go get 'em, Chris.
What do you want?
Uh, everyone... uh
my string broke earlier...
and uh... actually I was really
nervous... and... well...
what I'm saying is, I'd like
another shot at the audition.
No way.
