[Peter]
The Tale of The Squirrel Hotpot.

-Run
-[Benjamin] Oh, no!

-[Lily] Ah!
-[Peter] Watch out!

[Mr. Tod] I'll get you, rabbits.

[Mr. Tod panting]

Quick! [yelling]

[Mr. Tod] Rabbit for dinner.
I can almost taste it already.

Mr. Tod is super-fast today.

He must be super hungry.

Oof! I'm super stuck.

[straining]

[exhales]

Thanks, Peter.

-Gotcha!
-Whoa!

[Mr. Tod chortling]

Peter Rabbit. I have you now.

[Nutkin singing]

Oh, you wretched squirrel.

[Nutkin laughing]

-Thanks, Nutkin.
-No problem.

I love a good chase.
I'm impossible to catch.

I've got dodging skills,
weaving skills, leaping skills.

[Nutkin snickering]

[Mr. Tod] Oh, stop that.

If I can't catch a rabbit for dinner,

then I'll just have to try
something new instead.

[yelps]

Like squirrel.

[chuckling]

Even if you are a bit skinny.

Skinny?

I'm a lean, mean, nut-munching machine.

Haha!

Can I go now, please?

[Mr. Tod laughs]

Not this time.

Hopping hazelnuts! Peter!

Nutkin!

Help!

Come on, we have to save him.

[Mr. Tod hums]

[Nutkin] Nice place you've got here.

Of course, you could spruce it up
with a few ropes,

and maybe a couple of trampolines.

[Mr. Tod groans]

Mm, that'll do nicely.

Hey, I think you dropped me
in this pot by mistake.

Hello?

Hey, Florence.

Whoa!

Oops. Sorry, Peter.
She was just trying to help.

Is Nutkin in there?

Oh, he's in there all right,
and he's in trouble.

Duck, chicken…

How annoying.

Now, think, Tod.
Who would have a squirrel recipe?

Of course, Old Brown.

[straining]

[yelps]

And where do you think you're going?

Uh, I thought I'd get some fresh air.
I'm sweaty in here, are you hot?

No, but once I have
my squirrel recipe from Old Brown,

things are going to get
much hotter for you.

You do not want to eat me.
I'll only get stuck between your teeth.

And anyway, I'm so going to escape.

Any second now.

Unlikely, but best
not to take any chances.

You're coming with me.

[Nutkin whimpering]

-Where are we going?
-Owl Island, that's where.

And if I supply the food,

I'm sure Old Brown
will provide a tasty recipe.

[Mr. Tod chuckles]

Oh, this is bad. Very bad.

Okay, we need a plan.

Something stealthy and clever and… Huh?

Or we could do that.

[Nutkin straining with effort]

[Nutkin] Let. Me. Go!

Okay, wild idea, but hear me out.

Instead of eating me,
I think you're going to love this,

how about you just eat some nuts?

[Mr. Tod scoffs]

You've got your baked nuts, fried nuts,
poached nuts. Oh, braised nuts.

Stewed nuts, roast nuts, boiled nuts,

-grilled--
-Don't you ever stop talking?

I feel like you're not giving the whole
nut idea much of a chance.

-Peter!
-Shh.

What? Where?

Oh, did I say Peter?

I… I meant pepper.

Yes, nuts with pepper.

Delicious!

I can get that cage open.

I know that for a fact.
But I need to get closer.

Then that's what we'll do.
Lily, we're getting on that boat.

Benjamin, you go get help
from the Squirrel Tribe.

Go get the Squirrel Tribe. Easy.

Wait, what? They'll never listen to me.

You can do it, Benjamin.

Remember, a good rabbit never gives up.

Good luck.

[Mr. Tod hums]

All aboard for Owl Island.

[giggling]

[Mr. Tod vocalizing]

[squirrels chittering]

Friends, squirrels,

I need you all to follow me
to Owl Island to save Nutkin.

Who's with me?

I said, who's with me?

Hello?

[sighs] Huh.

[Mr. Tod vocalizing]

[snoring]

You do not want to disturb
old feather face

in the middle of the day.

Big mistake. Huge.

Yoo-hoo, Old Brown!

I've got a surprise for you.

What is it? Hmph!

Why are you waking me up?

Did I not warn you? I think I did.

My dear fellow, would you like to
join me for an early dinner?

Ooh.

[laughs]

Squirrel Nutkin! Perhaps I could
manage a little squirrelly snack.

Thank you, Mr. Tod.

[whimpering]

[Old Brown laughing]

I have collected
many a squirrel recipe over the years.

Lily!

[shushing]

[Old Brown] I have it all
written down in this fine book.

Just in case pocket, just in case.

I'm thinking frying him
with a few choice herbs.

Frying? Oh, how primitive.

I suggest roasting.

Perhaps with some of this
fine summer squash.

Oh, tail feathers!
I'm the squirrel expert, you fussy fox.

Fry him, I tell you.

Don't worry, Nutkin,
you'll be out of here in no time.

I'm not worried.

Um, actually, Peter, this is
a modular steel padlock.

It's going to take
a lot of skill and precision.

-Uh, Lily…
--I remember,

my dad once had a lock like this,

and he said it couldn't be opened.

But then, I used my hairpin--

Lily! The lock.

Oh, right.

Oh, right. This is
going to take some time.

Okay, now I'm worried.

Squirrels!

Squirrels, Nutkin is in trouble.
You have to follow me.

Hello!

Rabbits are brave. Rabbits are brave.

Hey, over here.

Whoa!

[screaming] Whoa!

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

[Benjamin grunts]

Wow, I didn't know I could do that.

[squirrels cheering]

Huh? Okay, Squirrel Tribe,
onward to Owl Island.

[squirrels chittering]

Hey, wait for me!

[sighs]

Almost there.

Old Brown is coming.

Hide!

[Nutkin whimpers]

Hopping hazelnuts!

[Nutkin] Oh, no!

Oh, I'm so glad we've finally managed

to come to an agreement on the recipe.

This promises to be
a succulent squirrel hotpot.

Huh? Hotpot?

What are we going to do, Peter?

There's no way I can get to the cage now.

They'll see me.

Peter, what are you doing?

Yoo-hoo!

Peter!

How's it going?

[both] Peter Rabbit.

Wait for it…

[both] Get him!

♪ You gotta be strong
You gotta be smart ♪

♪ You gotta be quick

Yes!

Wow! Haha!

Free at last. Whoo hoo!

[both yelp]

Haha!

Looks like it's going to be quite a feast.

A squirrel and rabbit hotpot.

No way, Peter will save us.

[Old Brown hooting]

[Peter screaming]

-[gasps]
-Oh, that's disappointing.

[Mr. Tod chuckling]

[Old Brown hooting]

Much obliged, old chap.

Now, does anyone have the time?

I know, it's dinner time.

-Help!
-Oh, no!

[Benjamin shouting]

-[Mr. Tod] Huh?
-[Benjamin] Benjamin to the rescue.

Whoa!

Ouchie.

I'm just going to say it.
When it comes to rescues,

you rabbits are really losing your touch.

No, wait, we haven't finished yet.

[clears throat]

Squirrels, go, go, go!

Rescue them!

[squirrels chittering]

Wow, that actually worked.

Ow!

Oh, dear.

Now, get the owl.

Ouch! Ow! Tail feathers.

Benjamin, you, the squirrels…
That was incredible.

That was nothing.

When it comes to being a leader,
it's all about keeping your cool.

Whoa! [grunts]

[rabbits laughing]

Come on, let's get out of here.

[Peter] See you later, Mr. Tod.

[Lily] Bye!

[Old Brown shuddering]

Old Brown, my dear fellow,

I don't suppose you could possibly
let me stay with you tonight?

No room up here.

Oh, but it'll be dark soon. Please.

[yawning]

-Quiet, fox. I'm asleep.
-No, you're not.

Yes, I am.

Oh, then how come you're still talking?

I talk in my sleep.

[Mr. Tod] Are you still awake?

[Old Brown] Oh, be quiet!
