Thank you We sneak in cooperation and extra curricular activities

00:07

Allah shmoop the school bell rings and monday is finally

00:11

over Now you can head home to eat nachos and

00:14

play video games all evening Sound good right Not so

00:19

fast Remember how your mom made you sign up for

00:22

one extra curricular activity this year Yeah well guess what

00:27

it starts today but don't despair because even though chess

00:30

club might not sound like the most exciting thing in

00:32

the world it could be fun Yeah Okay Well maybe

00:38

not that fund So how do we turn this into

00:41

something closer to this than simple Ready for it by

00:46

cooperating Seriously don't buy it Well we'll prove it Meet

00:50

uncooperative Alan his dad insisted he joined an extracurricular activity

00:55

course class thing And he chose chess club because it

00:58

sounded like the easiest place to slack off Meanwhile meat

01:02

slightly more cooperative carl Admittedly carl didn't really love the

01:06

idea of an extracurricular activity either But his grandpa has

01:09

always wanted to play chess with him So he figured

01:11

if he had to participate in something you might as

having more fun because he has friends there yeah that's

01:49

True Maybe you're thinking he's enjoying himself more than alan

01:52

because he actually took the time to learn the game

01:55

Well that would also be true or maybe it's just

01:57

because carl realized that the stuffy old chess teacher it

02:00

was actually kind of a cool dude after all Then

02:03

again you'd be right but this isn't all happened stands

02:06

The reason carl's having a good time is because he

02:08

let's all say it together now cooperated And now he's

02:13

got new friends and new hobby and a happy grandpa

02:16
