(Giggling)

Oh, hi!

Today, rabbit and I got stuck on a problem.

(Laughs)

Really stuck.

And it took a lot of working together

To figure things out!

It all started

When we were playing our favourite game...

Meesy-mousey-mohver,

Mouse, hop over!

Mouseribbity-rabbity-rover,

Rabbit, hop over!

Meesy-mousey-mohver,

Mouse, hop over.

Mousewhoa!

Aw, soggy salamanders -

That's my best hopover pole!

Not to worry, mouse. We'll find it!

(Giggles)

Mouseit's got to be here somewhere.

Rabbithmm...

Oh... Hmmm...

Whoops.

Hey, there it is!

Mousegreat!

I'll thump it down for you.

(Grunts of efforts)

(Sap sloshes)

Thanks, rabbit.

Uh, you can let go now.

I can't! I'm stuck to it!

(Grunts)

Me too!

That tree put something sticky

All over my hopover pole!

Ewww...

Come on, let's go wash this stuff off at the pond!

Mousewhoa! Rabbit! (Chuckles)

He always forgets how fast he is.

(Water sloshes)

Rabbit and mouse(straining grunts)

(Water splashes, mouse grimaces)

Aaahh! Stop!

Oh no!

Now I'm stuck to a stick

And my feet are wet.

Pearlhi guys.

Coralwhat'cha doing?

Amberwhy are you washing that stick?

Jadeis it dirty?

It's the pole mouse uses to play hopover.

That's a game we invented.

It got sticky goo on it from a funny tree.

Now we're stuck to it!

A funny tree?

Uh-oh.

Did it have scaly bark...

And big leaves?

Mouse and rabbityes! Huh?

How'd you know?

That's the sticky- icky tree.

Whenever it gets scratched,

It oozes super-sticky tree resin

To heal itself.

Jasper uses it to fix his pondi-floater,

'Cause it's waterproof.

That means, it won't wash off.

Won't wash off?!

Then how can we get un-stuck!

Time for a hop-think!

All("hmm" as think) hmmm... Hmm... Hm...

Rabbitthe question is...

How can we get un-stuck from this stick?

Gibble girlshmmm...

Pearl, coral and amber(impact grunts)

I know!

Why don't you just pull it off,

Really fast?

But that'll rip out some fur!
[ … ]

That sounds ouchy. No way!

What if you break the stick?

Then you wouldn't be stuck together.

But it's my perfect hopover pole!

And we'd still be attached to the broken ends.

Hmmm... Hey!

Maybe we can use something to scrape off the goo.

Like...

This old shell!

Pearl, amber and jadeoooh!

Awww...

(Straining effort)

Awwww...

Oops.

I decorated your pole by accident. Heh.

I still think you should rip it off.

Huh?!

Even if you do lose some fur.

Unless you want to be stuck together

Forever.

Together... Forever?

Hmm...

I wonder what that would be like?

That sounds carrotastic!

We're together most of the time anyway.

Just like you gibble-goose girls!

You always stick together,

And you have lots of fun. Right?

That's true.

We're never lonely.

Or bored. And if I get an itch...

I'm always there to scratch it.

(Sighing)

Exactly!

It'll be easy.

Wait.

We didn't say it was easy.

Then it's settled.

Rabbit and I will stay stuck together forever!

Woo hoo!

This is going to be great!

And I know just what I want to do first...

Go swimming! Come on.

But wait!

I don't like to swim!

Oh. Heh. Right. You don't.

Does this mean I have to swim,

Even if I hate it?

Does it mean I can never go swimming again?

Pearlyou know, when we can't agree on the perfect thing to do...

We goose-agree instead!

That's when we find an answer

That works for everyone.

Even if it's not perfect.

That makes sense!

Hey! I have an idea!

Rabbit(pants)

This is a great goose-agreement!

I can't swim too far,

But at least I can cool off.

Mouseand I get to stay dry!

Agh! Brrr! Mostly dry.

Jade(laughs)

Look. Stuff is still getting stuck to your pole!

Oh cabbage!

Mouse(stomach gurgles)

Oh! Excuse me. My tummy's growly.

Is anyone else hungry?

Rabbit and gibble girlsme!

Rabbitlet's go see if the corn's ripe!

Gibble girls and mouse(laugh)

(Straining grunts)

Higher! Higher, rabbit!

(Grunting)

(Reaching grunt) got it!

(Sniffing) good news. It is ripe!

Great! Two should be enough.

Coralmmmm, yummy!

Be sure to get all the outsides off.

They stick in my teeth!

Mmmm! Heh. (Lip smacks)

(Chewing sounds)

Hey!

Hey! Hmm?

Eating together is going to be harder

Than I thought!

Coralmouse?

Why don't you and rabbit try taking turns.

Like we do!

(Chomps)

Mmmm! Dee-licious!

Your turn!

(Chomping)

Take turns! We can do that.

What if you eat when the corn goes that way,

And I'll eat when it comes back this way.

Okay! You go first.

(Chewing)

(Chomping)

Mmmm!
[ … ]

Taking turns really does help!

All(take turns chewing and smacking lips)

That was yummy.

I'm stuffed!

What should we do now?

We could play that game.

What game?

The one they made up.

What was it called?

Girlshmmm...

Hopover!

Oh yeah! We love hopover!

But we don't know how to play.

Not to worry. We'll show ya, come on.

We can play in the meadow!

Rabbit, watch out for the- aaahhh!

Corn husks.

Okay, here's how you play.

One friend crouches down like this...

And the other one hops over.

It's really fun! Watch!

Ribbity-rabbity-rover, rabbit, hop over!

Rabbit(leaping grunt)

Mousewhoa!

Mouse and rabbit(tumbling grunts)

(Gasps)

Rabbit(cries out)

Oh, cabbage. That never happened before.

We weren't stuck to the pole before.

Jadei don't think you're going to be able

To play hopover anymore.

But it's our favourite game!

(Groans)

This pole is turning into one sticky problem!

Unless...

Maybe the pole's not the problem?

What do you mean?

Maybe we need a new game.

One where it's good to be stuck to a pole!

You mean, we should make up a game that needs a pole?

That just might work!

Okay, let's hop-think.

What kind of game can we play with this?

All("hmm" as they think) hmmm... Hmmm... Hmmm...

Pearlwell, it has a pinecone...

Coraland a shell...

Amberand it's swishy...

Jadebut sticky, so we shouldn't touch it...

Thumpeka! I've got it!

Gibbel girlswaddle, waddle, duck, duck!

Waddle, waddle, duck duck!

Waddle, waddle, duck duck!

I call... Pearl!

Pearlwoo hoo! Yay!

Remember, when you go under the pole,

Don't touch it!

Pearlokay, girls.

Gibble girls(excited squeals and laughter)

Waddle, waddle, duck, duck!

Waddle, waddle...

Gibble girls and rabbit(excited overlapping chatter)

(Cheering)

Too easy. Make it lower!

Rabbit(chuckles) okay.

Mousecoral. Jade. Amber...

Rabbit, mouse and girls(excited cheering and chatter)

Gibble girlswaddle, waddle...

Rabbitall right! Way to go! Woo hoo!

Amber, coral and jade(leaning grunts)

All(cheer and laugh) hoptastic!

Rabbitmouse!

Mouseyippee!

Rabbitow, ow, ow, ow! Stop!

It's twisting my paw!

Sorry!

I almost forgot we were attached.

Me too. Heh.

It seems like no matter how good we get

At being stuck together,

There are still things we can't do.

Like playing hopover,

And duck and waddle.

Yeah. (Sighs)

Maybe it's time to get ourselves

Off this pole?

But how are we gonna do that?

Our fur is really stuck!

Jadeyou know how.

I already told you.

You mean... (Gulps)

You're gonna have to rip the pole off your fur.

Rabbit and mouseokay. Let's do it.

Gibble girls(cheer) yay! Woo hoo!

Jadeon the count of three!

Allone, two, three!

Ooof!

Gibble girlshooray! (Giggle)

Mouse! We did it!

And it hardly hurt at all!

Rabbit and mouseyay! Yeah!
[ … ]

Bothowww! Ooh, heh heh.

Okay. That hurt a little.

(Wry chuckle) come on,

Let's soak our paws until they feel better.

Gibble girls(giggling) yay!

(Sighs)

Being stuck to rabbit was harder than I thought.

We had to goose-agree,

Take turns, and try a few goofy ideas.

(Titters) and in the end,

We still had to lose some fur!

(Sighs)

But it's good to know

That rabbit and I can solve

Just about any problem. Heh.

As long as we stick to it!

Mouse and rabbit(laugh)

(Chomps)

Whoopsie! (Laughs)

That was an accident!

Did you ever have one of those?

Sometimes I get my tail in a twitch

About accidents.

But staying calm can help.

I learned that today - on ladybug day!

Happy ladybug day, everybody!

Thunder and gibble girlshappy ladybug day, rabbit!

We're doing good singing and dancing

For the ladybugs.

Watch!

♪ Hey there, little lady-bugs ♪

Gibble girls♪ bugs, bugs, bugs!

♪ Come and give us some lady-hugs ♪

Gibble girls♪ hugs, hugs, hugs!

♪ Won't you all come out and play? ♪

♪ 'Cause today is ladybug day ♪

Gibble girlswooo!

Coral and jade(struggling grunts)

Rabbitgreat song and dance!

Pearlbut will it bring ladybugs?

Amberi'm sure it will!

I hope so.

Ow! Hold still!

Know what I'm making?

A ladybug bringer?

(Chuckles) how did you know?

You make one every ladybug day!

And it hasn't worked yet.

This one will.

I'm going to make it look just like a real ladybug!

See you at the party!

Pearl and amberbye!

(Hums)

I hope the ladybugs like my picture.

I used raspberry juice, so it's not just pretty...

(Slurps) it's dee-licious!

(Laughs)

Whoooaaaa! Oof!

Oh dear!

Oh, no! Bouncing berries!

(Giggles) I'm red!

Male ladybugoh, doesn't he look lovely.

Femaleyou're right! You should tell him.

Me? You tell him.

I'm too shy.

Oh, well.

I'm sure the juice will wipe off.

Right now, I'd better get my picture to the party!

Rabbithappy ladybug day!

Leapin' lettuce!

This place looks carrotastic!

Do you think the ladybugs will come to the party

This time, jasper?

Maybe!

The sun is shining bright

And the breeze is just right,

But you never know.

They're pretty shy.

Say, where's mouse?

Mouseta-dee-da-da!

All(gasp)

Look, everybody!

Mouse, you're red!

Pretty, pretty red!

Oh, yeah, I had an accident.

(Chuckles)

That's a dilly of a colour.

You're as red as a ladybug!

Oh, you're so pretty!

It's the perfect colour.

Especially today!

Jadeladybug day!

Male ladybugladybug day?

A party for us?!

Should we join them?

Just the two of us?

Aw, I'd be too shy.

What if we bring all our friends?

Good idea.

Come on!
[ … ]

Are you going to do red for always?

(Titters) no.

Red's a nice change,

But I like being mouse-brown.

Anyway, this colour will wipe off.

(Grunts of efforts)

Hey... It's not coming off!

Uh-oh.

But I liked being brown!

Brown like a yummy walnut!

Like the sand at the pond!

I understand, mouse.

I like being green like a lily pad.

I like being purple like the purple grape!

I like looking like my sisters.

It's funny when people mix us up.

Amber'cause we look the same on the outside...

But we're so different inside.

You're still the same mouse on the inside,

Right?

Of course!

But I still want to be brown again

On the outside.

Well, if that's what you want,

Then we'll just have to find a way

To help you.

Time for a hop-think!

All("hmm" as they think) hmmm... Hmm... Hm...

Rabbitthe question is...

How can we change mouse back to brown?

Amberwhat if he ate lots of brown stuff?

Or maybe rabbit could do a brown-making invention?

Coralor, we could all just close our eyes

And pretend mouse is brown!

(Laughs) one at a time!

Oh! I know what we could do.

(Shudders)

I hate getting wet.

You need wet to make the red go away.

Mouseoh.

It's not coming off!

Now what'll we do?

Mouse(whimpers)

Oh, why won't the red come off?

(Sniffs, lip smack)

Hang on. Is this raspberry juice?

Uh-huh.

That explains it.

Raspberry juice makes stains.

What are stains?

A stain is a colour that stays for a long time.

Stays?!

Does that mean I'll be red for always?

No. Not for always.

Just till the red fur grows out.

But I want to be brown again now!

(Sad groan)

(Groaning)

Cheer up, mouse!

At least you're the perfect colour

For ladybug day.

I don't like red anymore.

And I'm not in the mood for a party either.

That's the nice red mouse you were talking about?

But he's so grumpy!

He wasn't grumpy before.

He doesn't like red?

What if he doesn't like us?

I don't think we want to go to this party.

(Wings flitter)

Oh dear.

I wonder what happened?

We can't have mouse feeling so sad

On ladybug day.

Let's find a way to cheer him up!

We need another hop-think.

Allhmmm... Hmm... Hm...

How can we cheer up mouse?

Maybe a song will do it!

Mouseohhh...

♪ You are pretty, pretty red ♪

♪ On your feet and on your head ♪

♪ On your toes and on your tum ♪

♪ On your elbows and your bum ♪

(Giggles)

Oh... Thanks thunder,

But singing about being red

Just reminds me of my accident.

Oh. Oopsie.

Maybe a game would cheer him up?

Carrotastic!

Mouse loves games. We could play grabbyfluff.

Or rock friends.

Or duck and waddle.

Wait! I know the perfect game!

Mouse?

Want to play hide and seek?

Hide and seek? That's my favorite!

Especially when I get to hide.

(Groans) but I'm bright red.
[ … ]

You'll see me right away!

Well, ladybugs are red.

And we haven't seen them all day.

That's true. If ladybugs can hide,

Then maybe I can find a way to do it, too.

I've got it!

Okay! No peeking. (Giggles)

Let's go see where he hides!

(Wings flitter)

Nope!

I'll be thumped.

I can't see him anywhere!

Mouse!

Come out, come out, wherever you are!

(Laughs)

All(laugh along with mouse)

Mouselet's play again! (Excited giggle)

That was a good hiding spot!

(Chewing)

Berries are my favourite thing!

Come out, come out, wherever you are!

Mouse(giggles)

(Gasps) thorny horns!

Mouse, thunder and jasper(laugh)

Mouse(laughing) again!

(Chicks chirp)

(Giggles)

(Giggles) another good spot!

I never thought of that one.

Mousecheep, cheep! Cheep, cheep!

(Chicks chirp hungrily)

Oh... No, thank you.

Hazel and mouse(laugh)

See? You're still a great hider!

I am!

I guess being red for a while isn't so bad.

It's even fun!

Want to do the ladybug party now?

I sure do!

And I have a special party treat.

This raspberry juice makes stains,

But it also tastes really good.

I'll go and bring some!

♪ I am pretty, pretty red ♪

♪ On my feet and on my head ♪

♪ On my toes and on my tum ♪

(Gasps) oh!

Hello there!

Hello!

We love your new colour!

We were going to tell you before,

But you seemed so grumpy.

Sorry. I did feel bad,

But my friends showed me how great red is.

It is great, isn't it?

Hey, my friends would love to meet you;

Would you please come to our ladybug party?

Okay! Can we bring a few friends too?

Sure!

(Whistles to ladybugs)

(Giggles) come on!

(Giggling)

Ladybugs!

Please come to our party!

Jasperi made you a nice shady spot!

I made extra-special acorn mash...

With pretty red cranberries!

Gibble girlsand we're ready to do our dance!

With really good singing!

(Sigh) thump.

Oh well, we tried our best.

Mousehello!

All(gasps)

Mouseladybugs, these are my friends.

Friends, meet the ladybugs!

All(awed gasps) wow.

Ladybugs?!

Mouse, how did you do it?

(Giggles)

I just got rid of my grumpies

About being red!

Thanks to you guys.

Jasperthree cheers for ladybugs -

And for mouse, the hero of ladybug day!

Into a wonderful surprise!

(Slurps) mmmm! Raspberry.

Stop. (Titters)
