[Badou and gallop gasp]

Aaggghhhhh!

Aggghhhhhh!

Badou:
sorry, gallop!

Ungh!

[Splat]

[Chuckles]

Mmm. Tasty.

Harumph! Where are you
little hatchlings off to

In such a hurry?

Chiku:
the rescueteers are on patrol!

mr. Corkybo:
helllllp!

Munroe:
hear that,
captain stampede?

Yep! Rescueteers,
go, go, go!

Hmph!

Ungh!

Help! I'm stuck!

Gizmo, climb time!
Quillinator, retracta-rope!

[Grunts with effort]

Aaggghhhhh!

Zip, quick!

Badou:
tusk-tastic job,
rescueteers!

Rescueteers:
[cheering]

Zawadi:
what were you doing out here?

I promised ms. Strich

I'd deliver a load of coconuts
to the palace.

We can deliver them for you,
mr. Corkybo!

No problem!

Badou:
looks like everything's
almost ready

For tomorrow's festival.

Chiku:
sunsplash time
is so coooool!

[Sniffs]

Hey, guys...
Do you smell smoke?

Badou:
look! It's coming from
behind the palace!

Rescueteers, go, go, go!

ms. Strich:
help! Help!

Au secours!

Babar:
I need water!

Badou:
c'mon, guys!

Ms. Strich:
oh!

[Water sprays,
steam hisses]

Oh, my coconut cloud cakes
are ruined!

I was baking them

For tomorrow's
sunsplash festival.

Badou:
we brought you more coconuts
from mr. Corkybo.

I'm sure your second batch
will turn out tusk-tastic!

Babar:
it looks like you rescueteers
have it all under control.

I have festival preparations
to attend to.

Happy baking,
ms. Strich!

Oh, oh, oh, look!

This cake didn't burn!

Here, children:

As a reward for your noble
rescueteering efforts.

I do hope you like them!

Ugh!
This cake is-

Uh... Gaah... Great!

Ms. Strich:
well then, I must make many,
many, many more!

Woo-hoo!

My bake-dancing tunes!

[Music plays]

Badou:
guys, what are we going to do
about ms. Strich?

Those cakes were
pretty icky.

Maybe her next batch
will be better.

Or worse.

Ew!

If everyone who tries them
tomorrow

Hates them like we do,

Her feelings will be
really hurt -

really!

zawadi:
chiku's right;
we have to say something.

Chiku:
ms. Strich,
what's all this for?

Ms. Strich:
I need a place
to store all the cakes

I'm going to make.

I'm starting with a batch
of five hundred!

Agh!

Now I just have to remember...

Is it one part flour
to four parts salt,

Or two parts coconut
to three parts brittle-butter?

Hmm...

Uh, ms. Strich...

Don't you use
a recipe?

Many chefs have had
great success

Just - ahem! -
Winging it!

[Giggles]

Badou:
ms. Strich,
about your cakes...

Oh, this reminds me
of my grandma-mumsy!

A great baker!

She'd be proud to know

That I was carrying on
the tradition.

Oh, I'm sorry,
young prince.

You were saying?

Just... Uh...

Good luck with those cakes!

Thank you, dear!
Now, off you go.

Shoo! Shoo!

I have a busy day
and night of baking

Ahead of me.

Ciao!

Munroe:
'bu! Why didn't you finish
what you were going to say?

Badou:
I couldn't!

Not after she talked
about her grandma-mumsy

Being all proud of her
and stuff!

But when people eat her cakes
they're still gonna gag.

Chiku:
we can't let that happen!

We've got to save her
from being hurt!

Right!

And saving her sounds like a job
for the rescueteers!

You wanna make coconut
cloud cakes in my oven?

Zawadi:
for the sunsplash festival.

Please, gallop?
It's really important.

Badou:
and you're such a great baker!

That sweetberry bun
I tasted this morning

Was delicious!

Well, I suppose it won't hurt.

How many are we making?

Badou:
oh, only five hundred.

Get 'em made as fast
as you can, zip!

Thanks, gallop!

Five hundred?

Um, elephants have
big appetites?

[Beeping]

[Humming]

You know, ms. Strich might not
know how to bake,

But she has cool
dance moves.

Signal me
when everything is clear.

All set?

Aye-aye!

One secret switcheroo tunnel
coming up!

We can sneak
the good cakes in

And the bad cakes out,

And ms. Strich
will never know.

chiku:
coo-coo! Coo-coo!

Be careful
where you tunnel up.

Good luck.

Gallop:
my recipe says...

"Stir the batter
until smooth."

"Add a bowl of shredded coconut
and "one pinch of sugar."

How much brittle-butter
should I add?

Whoaooaaoh!

Brittle-butter?

My recipe doesn't call
for any- whaaaaa!

oof!
[loud clattering crash]

Oops!

Oof!

chiku:
uh-oh!

Badou:
distract ms. Strich!
I'll get him!

Chiku: excuse me, ms. Strich?
Ms. Strich: agghhh!

Chiku, did you hear
something fall?

Who? Me?
Um...

Quick baking question.

Ungh!

But what makes
the cloud cakes so fluffy?

Mi scusi, my dear,

But I really must go
and see what-

Hey!

Oh!

Show me
some of those dance moves.

[Grunts]

Huh?

Chiku:
uh, nothing wrong here!

[Giggles]

Ms. Strich didn't
notice anything...

This time.

Sorry, 'bu,

But there's so much stuff
in that tent

There's no safe place
to tunnel up.

We need a new plan.

Mmm!

That recipe has never
failed me.

Now how are you hatchlings

Going to get all these cakes
back to the palace?

badou:
by air freight!

Whoa!

[Music plays through headphones]

[Light clicks]

Take over, zip.

[Cart rattles]

[Glasses beep]

[Gasps]

Whoa!

[Gasps]

Whaaa!

Oof! Owwwww!

Oof!

Whoooaaaaaaa!

Aghhhhh! Oof!

Whooooaaaaaa!

look out!

Ms. Strich:
agggghhhhhhhhhh!

[Gasps] whoa!

Oh my!

Babar:
well, you rescueteers have had
quite the evening,

haven't you?

Badou:
sorry, papi.

Ms. Strich,
I'm sorry.

I should have been honest
and told you that the cakes...

Um, tasted pretty bad.

Babar:
have you tried them,
ms. Strich?

Ms. Strich:
[chuckles] I seldom eat sweets.

Gah! Blah! Oh yee-uck!

That's it!
No more baking from me - ever!

Oh no!
We didn't want you to quit!

Maybe you could learn
how to be a great baker.

Like gallop!

Zawadi:
yeah! He didn't just wing it.

He followed a recipe

And all the cakes
turned out great.

Babar:
it's difficult
to just wing it

Before you know the recipe
well enough.

I'm sure gallop would be happy
to share his with you.

A recipe does appeal
to the teacher in me.

Gallop:
stir the batter until smooth.

Add a bowl
of shredded coconut.

And one pinch
of sugar.

Oh, gallop,

My grandma-mumsy
would be so proud!

These cakes are tres,
tres, tres yummy!

Badou:
they sure are!

Rescueteer delivery team,
go, go, go!

Happy sunsplash day,
papi!

Happy sunsplash day,
badou.

Mmm! Delicious!

badou:
woo-hoo!

We made it to the top
of pachyderm peak!

Let's make
monkey mountain now!

Hey, who turned off
the water?

badou:
papi!

Impressive mountain,
children.

But if you need water,

You should fill a bucket

rather than let it run
all over the ground.

It's just water,
your majesty.

Water's precious
and shouldn't be wasted.

Those living outside the city
don't even have running water.

they drink from ponds
and water holes.

Where do we get
our water from?

Why don't I show you?

Ouch! Ou-oh! Tersh!

This is too hot!

Dump all the water
and start again.

Maybe we should invite
the ambassador

To come with us.

He could learn a bit
about saving water too.

Ambassador,
we're going to inspect

The celesteville
pumping station.

Care to join us?

I wish I could,
your royal regalness,

But, um, as you can see
my bath is ready.

Next time!

Ohhhhh!

Tersh:
uh-oh!

Babar:
it appears you have time
before the tub is ready.

Join us.
I insist.

[Sighs]

Badou: thumpin'!
Chiku: coooool!

Babar:
we pump fresh water
out of the river

For the citizens
of celesteville.

but notice the pipe
isn't full to the top;

That's because we're careful
to take only what we need.

Aaggghhhh!

Oof! Ow!

Aggghhhhhh!

Aggghhhhhhh!

[Trumpets]

Babar:
good catch, badou!

Crocodylus:
aggghhhhhh!

[Splash]

Uh, hi, guys.

Mind if we go in?

Royal guard:
sure, kid.

Badou:
ms. Strich!

My papi just took us
to the water pumping station.

We should study it
in school.

School?
Am I a student?

I haven't done
my homework!

I-i haven't studied
for any tests!

Uh, where are my books?

I must find my books!

Badou:
nana!

Celeste:
hello, little ones!
Do we know each other?

Badou:
you're my grandmother,
queen celeste!

A queen?

Oh, no.
I think I'd remember that!

Badou:
huh?

Where did this come from?

Babar:
my dear, are you feeling
all right?

Celeste:
how charming that you're worried
about me, stranger.

He's very handsome.

Something has affected
your memory.

Ms. Strich and the guards, too!

Crocodylus:
ohhhhh-ohh!

Stay back!

I don't want to catch it,
whatever it is!

Aaagggghhhh!

Tersh:
hi, uncle,
your slog-soak is ready!

Crocodylus:
tersh, you know who I am?!

Maybe the memory sickness
doesn't affect crocs!

Not too hot this t-
ohhhhh.

Tersh,
you nephewcompoop!

Hey! Don't you call me
a poop!

Crocodylus:
muck and mire!

Tersh was fine...
Until he tasted the water.

There's something wrong
with the water!

[Cackles]

Badou:
nits and gnats, papi!

Everyone in the palace
has lost their memory!

My dear friends,

We must all keep cool

If we're to solve
this terrible problem.

Water?

Babar:
thank you, ambassador.

That's very thoughtful.

Cornelius:
gotcha!

What are we going to do,
papi?

Papi? Who's that?

Are you papi?
I've forgotten.

Crocodylus:
then let me remind you.

I am your king!

King crocodylus!

[Gasps]

And you are
my obedient servant.

You're all my servants!

Uh, does this mean
I don't need these books?

Give my papi back
his crown!

Must I remind you

That children aren't allowed
in my throne room?

Lock them in
the storage room!

At once,
your majesty!

C'mon, chiku!

Who's chiku?

Nits and gnats!

Just run!

Whoa!

gallop:
...and so it was right after
they drank the water

That she and the king
lost their memory?

Just like everybody else.

I think there's
something wrong

With the celesteville water.

But how did you know
I wouldn't be affected?

Papi said those living
outside the city

Drink from ponds
and water holes.

Clever hatchling.

Chiku, come here.

Chiku:
chiku? That's me, right?

Yes,
and this is gallop.

I'm badou,

Your best friend
in the whole world.

Awwwww!
That's sweet!

You said everything
was fine

Before you visited
the pumping station?

Well, that's where
we should start.

Come along, hatchlings.

Crocodylus:
[groans]

It's a hot day.

Fan me!

[Hums tunelessly]

Where were we,
servant?

Babar:
"by order of king crocodylus,

All citizens
of crocodylusville

Are reminded
to refer to the king

As his gorgeous majesty!"

Anything else to add,
your gorgeous majesty?

Post it for all to see.

Now, let's hear
my song again!

♪ Me-me-me-me... ♪

[Clears throat]

♪ You are so great
and grand and keen ♪

♪ Even if you're kind
of mean! ♪

♪ You are the best thing
that we know ♪

♪ 'Cuz you're the one
who told us so! ♪

♪ Hail to our fang-tastic croc ♪

♪ For a reptile,
you really rock ♪

♪ The greatest king... ♪

♪ We've ever seen ♪

♪ And best of all
you're really green! ♪

♪ Hail to our fang-tastic croc ♪

♪ For a reptile
you really rock ♪

Crocodylus:
pfft! Needs work.

Any sign of those
escaped children?

None, great fang.

Crocodylus:
that's gorgeous great fang
to you.

They're up to something.

Equip everyone
with squirt sprayers.

A squirt of water
in the mouth

And those kids will forget
about trying to defy me!

Badou:
ungh!

So we're best friends,
huh?

Well...
We grew up together.

And we've been on

All these tusk-tastic
adventures.

I wish I could remember.

It sounds neat.

You mean,
it sounds coooool;

That's what
you always say.

[Giggling]

gallop:
hatchlings!
pull me back!

I've found the problem!

Forget-me-nuts!

one lick
and you lose your memory.

By floating in that pipe,

They affected all the water
coming into the city.

It'll be okay
now I've taken them out.

Badou:
but what about everybody

Who already lost
their memory?

Run to buttonstone brook.

Pick pollen pods
from the auld langs vine.

Whoever breathes in the pollen
gets their memory back.

Is this one of those
tusk-errific adventurey-things

We always go on?

Uh huh.
You wanna help.

Neat!

I mean, coooool!

badou:
there they are!

How do we get
the pollen pods?

Well, normally you'd just
climb up and grab them.

Oh! That's a pretty
gigant-a-normous tree.

But this is an adventure,
right?

[Grunts]

Hey! I did it!

Badou:
chiku, be careful!

Whoa!

Badou! Help!

Agh!

Aaggghhhhh!

Badou:
agh!

Uh... What are
we doing here, 'bu?

You're back!
The pollen worked!

Huh?

I'll explain everything.

Just grab as many pollen pods
as you can!

Badou:
bet those squirt-sprayers

Are full of
forget-me-nut water.

One spritz to the face
and we'll lose our memories.

We need a distraction.

You got it, 'bu.

Get inside
and save everybody.

Hey, you!
Can't get me!

Woo-hoo!

Whaaaa! There he is!

Spritz him!

Ha!

Oh!

Oh my!

Ungh!

Huh? Hey!

Agghhh!

[Gasps]

Cornelius:
my word! This is most irregular!

[Giggles]

Papi, nana...

Don't you remember anything?

You've been married
for years!

You're the real king
and queen!

He's lying!
Spritz him!

You love each other!

You must remember that!

Your name...

I-it's on the tip
of my trunk.

Agghhh!

Crocodylus:
[chuckles]

[Water sloshes]

Huh? Who am i?

[Gasps and cackles]

[Gasps]

Aggghhhhh!

Oh, how clumsy of me.
Thank you...

Um... Er...
Uh, you are...?

I'm badou.

Oh.

Thank you,
my love.

And thank you,
badou.

Chiku:
yay! Woo-hoo!

[Chuckles]

Babar:
that's the last
of the forget-me-nuts.

We'll have to make sure
they don't grow back here.

Crocodylus:
allow me to push the cart,
your majesty.

Tersh:
badou, my uncle forgetting
to be mean

Is kind of weird.

We'll pick more
pollen pods for him

And the rest of celesteville.

More forget-me-nuts,
papi?

No.
Flowers for your nana.

Just so she doesn't
forget me.

Chiku:
that's so sweet.

Your papi and nana
are best friends.

Badou:
just like us.
