Episode 4: Indoor Electrical Safety<\/h1><\/div>

[ Music ] [ A large title appears: “Indoor Electrical Safety”. A smaller title appears under it: “Why can’t I put a fork…in the toaster?” ]<\/p>\n

>> I want to know how safe…<\/p>\n

>> my house…<\/p>\n

>> really is.<\/p>\n

>> Yeah, me too, though, I think my house is pretty safe.<\/p>\n

>> I think you’d be surprised. Let’s go!<\/p>\n

[ Robbie runs in with a DVD. ]<\/p>\n

>> Okay, here’s the footage. Check this out!<\/p>\n

[ Mackenzie, Lucy and Jordan follow him. They all gather around a monitor to watch it. ]<\/p>\n

>> Cool! Oh my gosh! Yay, I can’t wait to see it!<\/p>\n

>> Is that that one part on there?<\/p>\n

>> Yeah, I hope so.<\/p>\n

>> Is this it?<\/p>\n

>> Here it is.<\/p>\n

[ A view of a kitchen appears as if seen through a hand-held movie camera. Red danger logos flash on multiple hazards in the room. ]<\/p>\n

>> Uh, Robbie, I’m not going in there. Look how many dangerous things are in there. I thought our movie was about electrical safety.<\/p>\n

[ A plugged-in cell phone sits by a wet sink. A message appears: “Water + electricity = DANGER!” ]<\/p>\n

>> Don’t worry, Mackenzie, there’s absolutely no electricity on the set.<\/p>\n

[ A plugged-in radio sits on the sink near a puddle of water. A message appears: “Corded radio by sink = DANGER!” ]<\/p>\n

>> We want to show the simple but very dangerous things that we’ve all either done or seen without thinking they could really hurt or even kill someone.<\/p>\n

>> I do know that I found our first hazard.<\/p>\n

[ A plugged-in toaster has a bagel stuck in it. A metal fork sticks out of the bagel. A message appears: “Metal fork in plugged-in toaster = DANGER!” ]<\/p>\n

>> Using a metal object in a toaster without unplugging it first is so super dangerous.<\/p>\n

[ A hand grasps the fork to get the bagel out. Yellow arrows indicating electrical current flow up from the toaster, through the fork, and into the hand. A universal NO symbol flashes. ]<\/p>\n

>> The fork can conduct electricity and you could be hurt or even killed.<\/p>\n

>> It’s so careless, and yet I’ve done it. I know I’ve done it at least once; maybe twice.<\/p>\n

>> You’d be surprised how easy it is to overlook this stuff. A lot of people mix electricity and water and don’t even get how dangerous it is.<\/p>\n

>> Ooh, [ Chuckle ] here’s Lucy’s bathroom!<\/p>\n

>> Um, what do you mean Lucy’s bathroom?<\/p>\n

>> Uh, yeah, we found some stuff in your house too.<\/p>\n

[ A plugged-in hair dryer perches on the edge of a bathtub full of water, and a plugged-in curling iron sits on the edge of a sink with running water. A message appears: “Electrical items by water = DANGER!” ]<\/p>\n

>> There’s an electrocution waiting to happen!<\/p>\n

>> Oh, wow! Sheesh! Water, water, water. Hmm. Who knew?<\/p>\n

>> Oh, I got one! Look at that! How did that get there?<\/p>\n

[ A power cord from a lamp runs under a rug. A message appears: “Cord under rug = DANGER!” ]<\/p>\n

>> Wait, why is that a hazard?<\/p>\n

>> Oh, because the cord can get damaged after getting walked on enough so it becomes a fire hazard.<\/p>\n

[ An electrical outlet has multiple power strips and power cords plugged into it. A message appears: “Overloaded outlet = DANGER!” ]<\/p>\n

>> I’d say you hit the jackpot with that. That is definitely overloaded!<\/p>\n

>> So now what do we do?<\/p>\n

>> Watch.<\/p>\n

[ Fast tempo background music ]\n[ A girl unplugs the toaster and then removes a bagel from it. A message appears: “Unplug the toaster first!” ]\n[ A boy unplugs the radio and moves it away from the sink. A message appears: “Move radio away from sink!” ]\n[ A girl turns off the curling iron, then unplugs it. A message appears: “Keep electrical items away from water!” ]<\/p>\n

>> Wow, that looks really good!<\/p>\n

[ Fast tempo background music ]\n[ Two boys fold up a corner of the rug and remove the lamp cord that is under it. A message appears: “Remove cords from under rugs!” One of the boys reroutes the cord so it runs behind a couch instead. The boys put the corner of the rug back down. ]\n[ A girl’s hands unplug a power strip from an overloaded wall outlet and relocate it to a different outlet. A message appears: “Move power strip to another outlet!” ]<\/p>\n

>> Good work, Robbie. That’s going to be a really good episode I think.<\/p>\n

>> Thanks. I think so too.<\/p>\n

>> So now we’ve learned how easy it is to overlook simple things that can be really dangerous. >> Don’t leave your appliances like a curling iron on.<\/p>\n

>> Or use them near water.<\/p>\n

>> And don’t stick a fork in the toaster. I mean talk about being toast. That’s one way to get there.<\/p>\n
