[humming]

[Singsongy]
nothing like spring cleaning

To make one feel tres...
Oh... Um...

Tres springy?

Oh! [Chuckles]
your majesty is so clever!

Babar:
with everyone pitching in,

We'll have the palace
shipshape in no time.

[Effort grunt]

Whooooa!

Badou!

badou:
sorry, papi.

Babar:
you can always ask
for my help, you know.

Badou:
I'll pick them up.

Hey, what's that?

Well now! I don't recall
ever seeing that before.

Thumpin'! It looks
like a pirate's chest!

Maybe it's full
of treasure.

Let's look inside.

Locked.

Here's the key!

Nits and gnats!
It won't-

Patience, badou.
You don't want to-

Oops.

Celeste:
well, I know I've never seen
that before.

But you're right, badou,

it does look like
a treasure chest.

Babar:
one straight out of a
blacktrunk the pirate story.

It could be full of gold
coins and silver shark teeth!

we gotta open it and see!

babar:
ah, but someone bent
the key.

Oh. Yeah.

Blacktrunk would
just break it open!

[Gasps]
mais... Non, non, non!

You can't think of damaging
this beautiful antique.

Any other ideas,
badou?

Hm. The tinker in the bazaar
fixes pots and pans

And other metal stuff.

Maybe he could fix the key.

That is a excellent
suggestion!

Badou:
this sure is a cool
looking key.

Babar:
keep it in your pocket,
badou.

You don't want to lose it.

Gotcha, papi!

I promise I won't
take it out

Until I hand it
to the tinker.

Babar:
[chuckles]

Badou:
closed!

Babar:
he must be at lunch.

Well, I do need to pick up
fresh strawberries

For my strawberry cream pie

And your nana wants the latest
miss marabou mystery novel.

But papi, the tinker could
come back any minute.

Any second even!

Hm.
You wait for him then.

I'll pick up what I need
and meet you back here.

Babar:
badou.

Until the tinker comes,
the key...

Stays in my pocket.

Good lad.

Oof!

Chiku:
hey, 'bu! Hiya, 'bu!

Have you come to see
the candy cook?

She's making chocolate-dipped
icicles!

Made with real mooncastle
mountain ice.

[Quietly]
I found a chest back
at the palace.

I think it's full of gold
and silver shark teeth!

Silver shark teeth!

really? Really, 'bu?

badou:
yep! And I have the key.

Wow! Let's see!

This key is tusk-tastic!

It's really old and...
Oh!

I promised my papi
I'd keep it in my pocket.

Huh?

[Laughing]

Chiku:
funny one, 'bu!
That was funny!

Munroe:
yeah, you really had
us going!

Silver shark teeth!

[Laughing]

No, really guys!
I've got the key.

Chiku:
come with us instead.

Badou:
wait! Here it is!

Huh?

Crocodylus:
clearly, prince,
you can't be trusted

With something so valuable!
[Laughs]

Badou:
get him!

[Laughs]

[Gasps]

[Chuckles]

Munroe:
where'd he go?

Chiku:
look, 'bu!
There's your papi.

We can tell him
and he can-

Whoa!

What is it, 'bu?
What's wrong?

We can't tell my papi.

He told me to keep
the key in my pocket

Until I gave it
to the tinker.

We have to find crocodylus
and get it back ourselves.

Crocs are great hiders,
badou.

They keep outta sight

Until they think
you're not looking,

Then... Boom!
They make their move!

We can't let the ambassador
sneak out of the bazaar.

No way you're getting to that
treasure, grabodylus.

[Growls]

♪♪

♪♪

[Gasps] [screeches]

Do you mind if
I test this out? Do you?

Give 'er a root-a-toot-toot,
tootsie!

Sweet!

[Loud trumpeting]

Crocodylus:
aiiieeeeh!

[Key clanks]

Chiku:
yes!

Yow-ow-ow-ow!

Crocodylus:
[laughs]

No fair!

All's fair when it comes
to pirate treasure!

It sure is!

[Groans]

Oof!

badou:
[laughs]

Whoa!

Whaaaa! Whooooooah!

[Loud crash]

Most kind, young prince!

Nits and gnats!
He slithered off again!

There you go!
Sorry about that!

Have a tusk-tastic day!

Any sign of
the ambassador?

Nope. But he hasn't tried
to get past munroe yet.

He hasn't come back
this way either.

He's hiding somewhere
between us and munroe.

C'mon, let's go!

Badou:
if crocodylus gets
that key fixed

He can take whatever
he wants out of the chest.

Nobody'll even know
it's gone!

Are you sure you don't
want to tell your papi?

'Cuz he's right there.

[Gasps]

Whoa!

Hmm. I know she's read

"The mystery of the lion's
bottomless stomach".

Ah, here we are...
"The hyena laughs at midnight".

Chiku:
do you see him anywhere,
'bu?

Badou:
we're never gonna
find him

Before my papi finishes
his errands.

Candy cook:
hi, sugar snout.

Would you and your friend like
a chocolate-dipped icicle?

Made with real mooncastle
mountain ice.

Mmm...

No thank you, ma'am.

Aw, badou!

Look!

Gotcha!

Agh!

Stop! Whooooa!

Oof!

Chiku:
he's getting away again!

Badou:
not this time.

badou:
look out!

Ha ha!

Crocodylus:
hey!

Munroe:
badou! Brake!

[Loud thud]

Badou:
[gasp] chiku!

Chiku:
got iiiiiit!

Oops!

Agh!

Crocodylus:
[chuckles]

Mine-mine-mine-mine-mine!

Gone again!

Remember what I said,
'bu.

Crocs are great at hiding.

They keep out of sight and
when you're not looking-

Boom!
They make their move!

You're right, guys.

The ambassador is too
clever for us.

We better go tell
my papi, the king.

What are we doing, 'bu?

Playing crocodile.

No more running around.

This time we're gonna
wait and watch.

[Gasps]

Let's get him!

Not yet.

[Chortles]

Ahhhh!

Boom!

Munroe:
great move, 'bu!

[Groans]

Badou:
c'mon! Let's get back
to the tinker's shop

Before my papi can-

Babar:
ahem...

Oops.

[Laughs]

crocodylus:
i only took the key
to keep it safe!

The young prince was waving it
all around the bazaar!

Badou:
the ambassador is right,
papi.

I took the key out to show
chiku and munroe.

Hm.

Mysteries sometimes
make us act too quickly.

let's unlock this one
once and for all.

♪♪

Chiku:
a stuffed crocodile?

Crocodylus:
mine!

Floppy fang!
[Giggles]

Nice doll,
ambassador.

[Giggles]

Floppy fang was my best friend
for years and years and-

Harrumph!

How did that silly
thing get in there?

badou:
there are pictures too.

Gaaah!
Give those to me!

It's a note from your mother,
ambassador.

She sent the chest when
you moved to celesteville.

No wonder we didn't
remember it.

Sorry, ambassador:

It must have been placed in
the storage room by mistake.

celeste:
your mother sent these things
to remind you of home.

It really is a treasure.

It's an outrage!

Pirate's chest...
[Groans]

Funny, the key belonged
to him all along.

I'm sorry I didn't tell you
everything right away, papi.

You can always ask
for my help, you know.

I know.

Now, why don't we finish
that spring cleaning

And then go and get some
chocolate-dipped icicles?

Yay!
Whoo hooo!yeah!

Chiku :
...six... Seven... Eight...

Nine... Ten!

Ready or not,
prepare to be caught!

[a distant giggle]

Found you!
I found you! Yeowch!

Munroe:
sorry, chiku,

But you should never pounce
on a porcupine.

[Laughs]
point taken!

Now help me find badou!

[Door handel clinks]

Chiku, munroe:
found you!

Whaaa!
Both: oops!

Chiku:
[laughs] hi, dad!

Sorry, your majesty.
We're looking for badou.

I haven't seen him.

Though I don't remember
that chair

ever having a trunk
before.

[Chuckle]
papi!

[Laughing]

Zephir:
chiku, you know you're
not supposed to play

In the throne room.

Besides,
it's a beautiful day.

You should all be outside.

Let's go to the grotto!

Yeah!

[Laughing]

Just remember, badou.

the grotto is gallop's home.

Be respectful of his wishes.

Sure thing, papi!
C'mon!

Yippy! Whooo!

I seem to remember
another young monkey

Who loved playing hide
and seek

In the throne room!

[Giggles]
you never could find me.

Badou:
...seven... Eight...
Nine... Ten!

Ready or not, prepare to be-
oof!

Chiku:
are you okay, 'bu?
You okay?

Yeah... But where'd that
ball come from?

tersh:
gee, sorry, prince badou.

You got in the way
of my sh*t.

Munroe:
what are you two
doing here?

Playing kicker ball!
What do you think?

No way!
This is our place!

Guys! The grotto's big enough
for all of us.

We'll play at one end
and you play at the other.

Okay?

Dilash:
fine! Just stay out
of our way.

Badou:
I'll count again.

Dilash:
where do you think
you're going?

Tersh:
that's our homebase boulder,
badou.

All our games start
from there.

But it's our
counting rock.

Nu-uh!

Come on, dilash,
it's-

Dilash:
ours!

Ours!

Ours-ours-a-gazillion
times-ours!

Gallop:
by my step and stumble!

You little hatchlings
have awfully big voices!

I was taking my nap!

Badou:
sorry, gallop.

But we were here first!

[Yawns]

Hmph. I was here long
before any of you.

Badou:
yes, sir.

If I can find a way
to share this space

So can all of you.

but the next one
who disturbs my nap

Will be sent away faster
than... Er...

Faster than...

Chiku:
a jackal with a jet pack?

Faster than a rooster
on a rocket?

Hmph!
Faster than even that.

Hmph.

Chiku:
c'mon, 'bu. Let's go finish
our game somewhere else.

Badou:
no way.

If we let the crocs
have the grotto now,

They'll be here all the time.

they're already calling
our counting rock

the "homebase boulder"!

So what do you
want to do?

You heard gallop.

Whoever disturbs his nap
is outta here faster-

Than a mongoose
on a motorcycle!

[Giggles]
I've got an idea.

Munroe:
how are these gonna help
get rid of the crocs?

Remember what happened
at the last flower fair,

when dilash ate all those
banana sandwiches?

Oh! Yeah!

But how you gonna get
him to eat these?

Tersh:
[sighs] dilash, can we just
go someplace else to play?

Somewhere where we can
make some noise-

Shhhhh. We're protecting
homebase boulder.

Hey! What are they doing
with all those bananas?

These are our snacks,
dilash.

You keep your claws off them!

I looooove bananas.

Chiku:
it's working!

Babar:
good sh*t, zephir.

Zephir:
you were right about it
being too beautiful a day

To be inside.

I wonder if the kids
are having fun.

I hope they're not
bothering gallop.

[Belches]

Badou:
here it comes.

[Stomach growls]

Uh-oh!

Dilash, ssssshhh!

[Loud rumbling]

[Loud belch]

Oh my!

Ah!

Ahhh!

Oh. Point for me.

[Badou, chiku
and monroe laugh]

Munroe:
nice belch, banana belly!

No way gallop could
nap through that.

Aw, you left those
bananas out on purpose!

You tricked us!

'Bu told you not
to eat them.

Badou:
and as soon as gallop
shows up,

you crocs are outta here.

Oh my....

[Grunting]

Dilash:
hah! Your plan didn't work!

[Stomach rumbles]
uh oh. Guys...

Bananas make you
burp too, tersh?

Uh... Not burp.

[Grunting]

[Loud rambling]

[Panting]

[Farts]
sorry.

All:
ewwwwwwwww!

Whoa!

Oof!

[Gasps]

Why thank you, zephir.

[Grunts]

I win.

those birds are leaving
the grotto

in an awfully big hurry.

Perhaps we should
take a look.

[Straining grunts]

Hmph! How annoying!

Hatchlings?
Hatchlings!

Heeeeelp!

Dilash:
aaaaah! Now who's making
all the noise!

[Laughing]
have another banana, tersh!

Wait!

There's gotta be a better way
to see who gets the grotto.

I know!

We challenge you to
a game of kicker ball!

Hmm...

Dilash:
two teams of two.

First team to score
a goal wins.

Winners get to keep
the grotto.

Losers never come back!

[Gasps]

Forget it, 'bu.

Let me play.
We can b*at these guys.

You're on.

Badou!

♪♪

[Gulps]

Boo-hoo ba-dou!

You're gonna be crying
when this game is over!

Ooah!

Chiku:
go go go go go!

Badou:
here I come, tersh!

Hwaa!

Tersh:
heads up!

Hiiii-ya!

Yes!

[Effort grunts]

[Giggles]

Ha!

Chiku:
yeah! Hooray!

Badou:
we won! Woo-hoo!
Manoroe: awesome!

[Cheering]

Time for you to leave,
dilash.

Fine! Whatever.

We didn't want to play in
this dumb old grotto anyway.

C'mon, tersh.

C'mon, let's go tell gallop
that the crocs won't be back.

Gallop! Are you okay?

Are you in need of eyeglasses,
young prince?

He's seat over feet, 'bu.

[Effort grunts]

Munroe:
this stuff is heavy!

Badou:
chiku, get a vine!

Chiku:
right-o!

Gallop, we're going to
try to pull you free.

Hmph.

Guys! Hey, guys!

Hey guys!

Hey, dilash, I think
there's something wrong.

Why?
You eat another banana?

Chiku:
hey, come on, guys!

Not our problem any more.

[Sighs]

Okay, gallop!
Here we go!

[Effort grunts]

[Effort grunts]

He's not... Ugh...
Coming loose!

Huh?

Hi guys!

This doesn't make us
friends.

Everybody together!
Heave!

[Effort grunts]

Gallop:
whaaaaaaaa!

Yooooahhhhh!

[Splash]

Babar:
are you all right,
gallop?

Gallop:
hmmmph! Nothing is broken.

Badou?

Sorry, gallop.

Papi told us to respect
your wishes but...

I guess we acted like
the grotto belonged to us

Instead of you.

Dilash:
us crocs were willing
to try sharing the space.

It's never just about
sharing the space.

you hatchlings should have
tried sharing the fun.

Though to do that, you'd have
to talk to one another.

Do you know
what this is?

The counting rock.

Homebase boulder.

[Laughs]
we called it
the meeting stone.

Long before celesteville
was built,

Animals of all kinds would
come to the meeting stone

To talk out their problems.

This grotto is a very
special place.

babar:
perhaps you boys could
try that.

Coming here and
just... Talking.

[Chuckles]

Now who's up for a game
of kicker ball!

Tersh:
sure!

Dilash, tersh, think
we can b*at these others?

Tersh:
yes sir!

Gallop:
I better put on some
honeybrush tea.

I can see this is going
to get as noisy as a...

A hippo hoedown?
A jackal jubilee?

Hmmph! Noisier than that!

Loser does the winner's
chores for a week?

Now you're talking!

[Laughing]
