Albie is trying out a cool new loud voice – her ELEVATOR VOICE. But not everyone is a fan. She visits with an opera singer who explains how volume can affect the meaning of what we say. Back on the elevator, Albie decides to create an opera of her own and demonstrate that there’s a time for loud voices, quiet voices, and voices somewhere in the middle.

Albie is having trouble understanding why Zia needs space – after all, isn’t it fun to have your friends super close all the time? Together, they visit ballet dancers who explain that while some moves need a lot of space, other moves require dancers to stand close together. They demonstrate a lift, checking in with each other to make sure they’re ready. Back on the elevator, Albie decides to ask her friends before smooshing too close to them.
