[bunniefuu]

(whimsical music)

(girls giggle)

(whimsical music)

(crowd applauds)

(whimsical music)

(lighthearted music)

- Isn't she lovely?

My very first ballet

teacher gave that to me

when I was even

younger than you.

Oh, I was such a

funny little one.

I could barely point my toes.

- Miss Lilly, you mean you

weren't always a great dancer?

(Miss Lilly laughs)

- Oh, of course not darling.

Nobody's born with ballet

slippers on, not even me.

(door thuds)

Oh!

(lighthearted music)

(mice chatter lightly)

- [Dr. Tuttle] Oh, ow!

- Dr. Tuttle, Mr. Mousely.

Darlings please be careful.

- Oh, I'm terribly

sorry Miss Lilly but it-

- Is everything all clear?

- Oh dear!

- All right, then.

(mice grunt)

(mouse in red jacket exclaims)

(class giggles)

- Oh, was that, "All

clear" or, "Oh dear"?

(children giggle)

(tree rustles)

(children exclaim)

- [Mr. Tuttle] To me, to me.

(men grunt)

- Oh, I can't wait!

Just think, tonight every

branch will be decorated

with a special surprise gift!

- It's better than

a birthday party.

- It's even better

than a Christmas party.

- It is a Christmas party.

- Oh yes.

(children giggle)

- I've spent all week making

my present for Miss Lilly.

- (giggles) Something

homemade, how sweet.

Of course, we bought her

a very expensive necklace.

- With a real jewel on it.

- My mom said it's bound

to be the most perfect gift

she's ever had.

- Oh.

(piano music)

(door thuds)

(Angelina sobs)

- Angelina, why the long face?

- My gift for Miss Lilly

mom, it's so, it's so-

- Perfect.

Look darling, I put

it into a frame.

It's a beautiful picture.

Miss Lilly is going to love it.

- But mom (sniffs)

it's so homemade!

(Angelina sobs)

(door clatters)

(door creaks)

(piano music)

- Oh.

(door squeaks)

(door thuds)

(piggy bank jingles)

- (sniffs) Don't worry

Miss Lilly, I'll find you

the most wonderful gift

in all of Mouse Land.

(Angelina sobs)

(dramatic music)

- Angelina, yesterday you

were so happy about your gift

for Miss Lilly.

- It's just not good enough.

I mean, it doesn't have any

jewels and she can't even

wear it.

And besides where would she

put it, in the ballet studio?

- Oh.

- Oh.

- Alice, look at that!

- [Alice] Oh wow.

It's so, so fancy.

- Come on!

(Alice exclaims)

(piano music)

- The trim is made from

finest silk and the jewels

well, let's just say

that they're real.

- Did you hear that Alice?

Please miss, I'd like to buy it.

- Lovely!

Now that'll be $ . .

- $ . ?

(dramatic music)

But how will I ever get

that much money Alice?

The party's tonight!

- I've got a whole jar of coins.

I'm sure there's at least

(mumbles) three or four

but you can have them all.

- Thank you, William but

I don't think that would

do much good.

And besides it wouldn't count

if the money came from you.

- Don't worry Angelina,

you'll think of something.

After all, you always do.

(piano music)

Hey!

Holiday gift wrapper wanted.

Good pay.

(gasps) Angelina!

You could do that!

Oh.

(upbeat music)

(Angelina hums)

(paper rustles)

- Lovely job my dear.

Now let's see, how

many have you done?

One, two, three.

(door thuds)

Ah, Mrs. Pinkpaws!

Your gifts are

all ready for you.

- Thank you.

Well Angelina, what

lovely wrapping.

- But there are no labels!

- How will we know

which present is which?

- Hmm.

- Oh, no.

(dramatic music)

- Here Angelina, it'll

make you feel better.

- No, thanks Alice.

- I know, I'll buy the

painting and then you can use

the money to buy Miss Lilly

the, well I'll have a bit more

in a year or two.

(upbeat music)

- Oh, very good, yes.

- Oh, bravo!

(crowd applauds)

- Oh, yes.

- Thank you very much

ladies and gentleman.

Please give as much as your can.

Don't forget the poor,

hungry little Dacovian

orphan mouselings.

Please give from your hearts.

Thank you.

Thank you kindly, sir.

Thank you madam, thank you.

- Alice, William?

I think I've got an idea.

(upbeat music)

(women giggle)

(lighthearted music)

- [Mouse # ] Oh, very good yes.

Oh, bravo!

Oh, yes!

- Thank you madam.

Thank you.

- I like her.

- Thank you.

(piano music)

(children breathe heavily)

(dramatic music)

- Gone?

- Oh, dear.

- Gone?

But how could it be gone?

- Oh, I'm terribly

sorry but it was sold

just a few minutes ago.

- Oh, no!

(plate clatters lightly)

- Angelina?

Angelina, we don't want

to be late for the party!

Angelina!

(Angelina whimpers)

Angelina, where are...

Well I was wondering when you

were going to finally clean

under there.

(Angelina sobs)

Oh, dear.

(Angelina sobs)

- I'm not going to the party.

Not without a gift

for Miss Lily.

- But you have a lovely gift!

You worked so hard on it.

- But I wanted to give

her something special.

- Oh darling, it is special.

And Miss Lily will be so

upset if you're not there.

(Angelina sniffs)

Oh, come on now.

I'll help you wrap it.

- I think I can manage.

(piano music)

- Oh, wonderful!

- Wonderful!

(crowd applauds)

(string music)

(students chatter)

- You open your gifts first

Miss Lily, since you're

the oldest.

- (chuckles) Why,

thank you Henry.

(piano music)

(paper rustles)

How lovely!

Oh, thank you darling.

Oh, that is so kind.

What a wonderful

present, thank you.

Oh, that's the most unusual

gift I've ever seen.

Now what have we here?

- It's from me, Miss Lilly.

- And me, Miss Lilly.

- It's real.

- Oh, it's lovely!

Thank you darlings for

the beautiful necklace.

(mouse in blue tutu laughs)

- Alice, I don't feel so good.

- Thank you.

Thank you everybody.

And now it's time for-

- Quick you tell her!

- Excuse me, Miss Lilly but

you still have one more gift.

(paper rustles)

(mouse in purple tutu laughs)

- It's almost like someone

tried to hide it (laughs).

- Thank you.

- Now I really

don't feel so good.

- Well, what lovely wrapping

but there's no label.

I wonder who this could be from?

- It must be from

Angelina Miss Lilly.

She's the only one left.

- Is it Angelina?

- Yes, Miss Lilly.

But I tried to buy you-

- Angelina!

Why it's so beautiful!

- What?

- I absolutely

love it my darling!

- You do?

- And I think I have the

perfect place for it.

(class exclaims)

- But, oh.

- Thank you my little ballerina!

A homemade gift comes

right from the heart.

- Oh.

(piano music)

And next year, I'm going to

make her a beautiful bowl

out of clay and I'm

going to paint it pink

with yellow flowers

all around and...

(dramatic music)

- Oh, oh thank you.

Oh, I hope we're not too

late, I hope we haven't

missed anything.

- Oh my goodness,

look at that hat.

(Angelina's mother giggles)

Good gracious, what a hat.

- Oh crumbs.

(Angelina and Alice laugh)

- [Mouse # ] It's

marvelous Mrs. Hodgepodge.

(blanket rustles)

- Wasn't it the most

wonderful party ever?

- It was, wasn't it?

- And those were the

best biscuits ever.

- Can I open Ms. Lilly's gift

even though it's not really

Christmas yet, please?

- Of course you can.

- Oh.

(gasps) But how did she know?

I was wishing I could have it.

(xylophone tinkles)

Oh, isn't it beautiful?

(upbeat music)

- [Mouse # ] Well no,

honestly this was my place

to begin with.

It really was, no you

weren't here first.

- (clears throat) Now you've

all been given a rhyming clue

to start you off.

So all you have to do is

find the other clues and race

to the finish line and this

lovely, shiny red tandem

could be yours.

- Oh!

- Oh, wow!

- I'd love us to win

first prize Alice.

- (scoffs) Don't

be silly Angelina.

We're going to win.

(Priscilla and Penelope giggle)

- Ready.

Steady.

(cork pops)

Oh!

(upbeat music)

(mice exclaim)

(bike chains click)

See you at the finish!

- [William] Push, Henry!

- I can't!

They've made the

pedals too far away.

(William sighs)

(upbeat music)

(bikes chains click)

- Old am I.

An umbrella tree in my

sweet smelling shade

the next clue will be.

- Hmmm.

(Angelina gasps)

Oh, cedar trees

look like umbrellas.

Oh no, it's the twins!

(bike chain clicks)

(Priscilla and Penelope giggle)

Oh, pedal faster Alice!

(dramatic music)

(Alice and Angelina

breathe heavily)

(upbeat music)

(bike chains click)

- [Angelina] Pedal

faster, Alice!

- Oh!

- Oh!

- Oh!

Look out!

(Angelina and Alice yell)

- [Angelina] Oh, those Pinkpaws!

- Whee!

- Whee!

- They didn't do it

on purpose, Angelina.

(Angelina grunts)

(birds twitter)

- Another easy one.

Quick, here they come.

- Wait.

(string music)

(Priscilla and Penelope giggle)

(dramatic music)

- Well, where's the clue?

- It's not here.

- Well it must be here.

It's an old tree, it

looks like an umbrella.

(Alice sniffs)

- Oh, and it does smell nice.

- Oh, it would be just

like the twins to hide it.

- Oh, they wouldn't do that.

(birds twitter)

- Hmmm.

Ah-ha!

(Angelina grunts)

(upbeat music)

(William grunts)

- Which way now?

- [Henry] That way!

- [William] Which way?

- That way!

- I can't see.

(William and Henry exclaim)

Which paw are you holding up?

- Left.

- [William] Okay.

- [Henry] No, left!

- [William] This is left.

- [Henry] I meant, right.

- [William] Oh.

(piano music)

(Alice moans)

(William breathes heavily)

- Hi!

Want some cheesecake?

- Where's Angelina?

(Angelina thuds)

- Oh gosh.

- Oh, oh.

- [Alice] What's the clue say?

(Angelina breathes heavily)

- To sail a boat or have a

splash to my far left bank

you must peddle a dash.

- That's it, Miller's Pond!

- Miller's Pond!

(upbeat music)

(mice breathe heavily)

- But I don't know

what it means.

- Oh, dear are you stuck?

- No, we're resting.

- Well, I'd like to read the

clue please before it ends up

in a tree again.

- I don't know what

you mean, I'm sure.

- Ah, when you reach this

stone you will have traveled

one mile.

You'll find the next clue

on the old wooden stile.

- I know Angelina, I know!

- Shush!

(Angelina hushes)

- Angelina!

(Angelina hushes)

The chipping cheddar milestone.

- Well done, Alice (giggles).

- What should we do Priscilla?

- Follow them, of course.

(dramatic music)

(William breathes heavily)

(Henry hums)

(William and Henry yell)

(William and Henry grunt)

- William, it's much easier

when you're pedaling.

(dramatic music)

- [Alice] Angelina,

they're following us!

- [Angelina] Hold on Alice!

(Alice exclaims)

(bike chains clink)

(mice breathe heavily)

- Whee!

- Whee!

(dramatic music)

- Oh, no!

Duck!

- [Alice] I wanna get off!

(mice breathe heavily)

- I'll teach them!

(Priscilla and Penelope yell)

(bike clatters)

(mud splashes)

- Oh, yuck!

- Yuck!

(Priscilla and Penelope sob)

- Near this old stone mouse

both brave and wise, at the top

of the hill you'll

find first prize!

- The Duke of Mouseborough

was brave and wise.

The Mouseborough Monument!

- The Mouseborough Momument!

- Come on!

(piano music)

(upbeat music)

(supporters chatter)

(supporters cheer)

- Oh, Angelina

we're going to win!

- Oh, oh no!

- Oh, no!

(piano music)

(William breathes heavily)

- [Henry] Can I steer now?

- [William] No, Henry!

- Oh, go on.

Please, please, please, please?

(William grunts)

(Henry giggles)

- This is fun!

- Be careful, Henry!

(Henry giggles)

(William and Henry yell)

(mud splashes)

- I don't want to steer anymore.

- There.

(Angelina grunts)

(Priscilla and Penelope giggle)

Oh!

- [Priscilla] Oh, dear.

- [Angelina] Oh no, the twins!

Oh.

Oh, quick, Alice!

(dramatic piano music)

(Alice and Angelina

breathe heavily)

(dramatic piano music)

(bikes clatter)

(bikes clatter)

- Whoops.

- Oh!

(Priscilla and Penelope giggle)

(bikes clatter)

- Hey!

- Oh!

- Again Priscilla, again!

(piano music)

Stop it!

(Penelope screams)

- Angelina, they're

heading for the river.

(Penelope screams)

- Oh, well.

(dramatic piano music)

Oh.

(Penelope whimpers)

(Penelope screams)

- [Penelope] Help!

(Priscilla and Penelope scream)

(water splashes)

(water splashes)

Help!

- Oh, come on Alice.

(water splashes)

(Priscilla and Penelope whimper)

- [Penelope] I can't swim.

Help!

- It's no good Angelina.

- [Penelope] Help!

Help!

- [Priscilla] Help!

- Grab this!

(water splashes)

(Priscilla and Penelope whimper)

(Priscilla coughs)

- Thank you.

- Yes, thank you.

- You're welcome.

You know, one of us can

still win the tandem.

- Yes.

Race you to the top?

- Ready, steady-

- Go!

- Hey!

(upbeat music)

(mice breathe heavily)

(bike chain clinks)

(supporters cheer)

- Oh, well done Penelope!

(supporters cheer)

(upbeat music)

(Angelina and Alice giggle)

- What's so funny?

- Well done!

(crowd applauds)

- William and Henry?

(Angelina and Alice giggle)

I suppose it is quite funny.

(all giggle)

- Ow!

William.

- Hang on Henry,

I've got an idea.

(Henry whimpers)

It's much easier when

you're peddling Henry.

- William you've made

the peddles too near.

(all laugh)

(upbeat music)

(trumpet sounds)

(upbeat music)

- [Angelina] What is Scarlet

and little Pria doing?

Scarlet is galloping and

Pria is holding the reins!

It's the pony gallop!

It's very difficult

dancing with someone else

because you have to watch

what they're doing as well as

making sure you do

it right yourself.

(trumpet sounds)

(piano music)

Callum reminds me of Sammy,

always has to do things his way.

(piano music)

(giggles) But then Miss Lilly

say I can't always do things

my way either.

(piano music)

Scarlet and Katelyn dance

really well together.

They move at the same time

as though they're one person

not two.

(piano music)

Oh dear.

But even when they don't do

it exactly right, they're so

good at working together

they can get back in step

before we really notice

anything was wrong.

(piano music)

(piano music)

I bet Charlotte wishes

she didn't have to

dance with Callum.

He's so stubborn.

(piano music)

Oh, just like her.

(piano music)

(giggles) Dear, they really

are just like me and Sammy.

They aren't very good

at working together.

Not like Hamish and Antonia.

(trumpet sounds)

Or Pria and little Scarlet.

Scarlet's such a steady pony

and Pria's a careful rider.

They're a good team.

(upbeat music)

Hmmm, looks like Callum and

Charlotte are still cross

with each other.

It's a good thing their

teacher Vanessa is there

to help them.

(piano music)

She's showing Charlotte

how to hold hands properly

so they don't bump

into each other.

(upbeat music)

Now it's Callum's turn.

Vanessa's showing him how to

do the steps in time with her.

(piano music)

Oh, now Charlotte and

Callum are working together

their dance looks really good.

(piano music)

That was perfect!

(giggles) Well, almost.

(piano music)
