Segments

 * Excersizing on a slow day
 * Detective Work explains that it is a slow day for him, and on slow days he excersizes so that he can be in good shape and alert, because he never knows when trouble might happen. While excersizing, he is oblivious to the fact that a crook is trying to get rid of him.


 * Hippo on trampoline
 * Detective Work sees a hippo bouncing on a trampoline, and wonders how the hippo can bounce, since hippos are heavy, but the hippo thinks that he is light.
