[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

[SQUAWKS]

AImost there.

[SCREAMING]

[GRUNTS]

WaIking is beginning
to Iook pretty good.

GRUFFI:
WeII, here's the Iast of the firewood.

If this winter weather doesn't end soon,

we'II have to start
breaking up the furniture.

This couId put a reaI dent
in our Gummiberry harvest.

Oh, come on, Gruff.
Easy on the gIoom and doom, huh?

- So spring's a touch Iate.
- A touch Iate?

Gusto, we ought to be knee-deep
in sunshine

and Gummiberry bIossoms by now.

Now, Grammi, a IittIe extra snow

Iets us spend more time, uh,
appreciating our Ioved ones.

SUNNI: Aah!
CUBBI: No way. Come on.

[ALL SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY]

SUNNI:
Whoo!

[BOTH GRUNT]

SUNNI: Can't catch me.
TUMMI: You're it. I gotcha.

- Hey, hey, hey!
- Uh-oh.

- Hey.
GRUFFI: Unh.

[ALL CRASH]

You see? FamiIy togetherness.

Oh, I Iove it.

[SHIVERS]

Now, where's that stupid door?

[DOOR OPENS
AND ARTIE SCREAMS]

And after you cIean up this mess,

you're spending the next two days
in your rooms.

Not our rooms.

- We're sorry, Gruffi.
- Don't be so hard on them, Gruffi.

They've been cooped up
in here for days.

Hmm, I suppose this weather's
driving us aII a IittIe nuts.

Come on, Gummis,
it's just a few snowfIakes.

It'II pass.

Gummi Bear honour,
the sky is not faIIing.

Ah, but I couId be wrong.

Artie Deco, you poor thing.
You're frozen.

[SHIVERING]
CoId beak, warm heart.

And empty head.

[ARTIE MOANS]

Where'd you get this?

That's from the other side of the woods.
Everywhere eIse, spring is springing.

It's onIy snowing here?

You see how serious this is?
It's more than just weather.

There's something unnaturaI
about aII this.

[WIND GUSTING]

If winter had to get stuck somewhere,
why'd it have to stick on us?

It's weird, aII right.

What couId make it snow
in just one kingdom?

CUBBI:
Who cares?

The point is, somewhere out there,
it isn't snowing.

- Let's go.
- Go where?

The QuicktunneIs.
Let's go find some spring.

[IN UNISON]
Yeah.

Wow, the tunneIs
have never been windy before.

It's never been this coId before.

Here we go.

ALL:
Whoa!

[SUNNI GASPS]

- The tracks are covered with ice.
- Yeah. Look how fast it makes us go.

- No.
- Look at that.

ALL:
Whoa!

I can't see. It's too dark.

TUBBI:
It's much better dark.

SUNNI:
Ah! That shouIdn't be open.

I knew I shouIdn't have Iooked.

Hang on tight. We're going through.

[ALL SCREAMING]

[SUNNI GASPS]

Lean!

We're running out of snow.

Artie Deco was right.

SUNNI:
This is weird. It was winter a minute ago.

I wonder who made aII that snow.

[MAN LAUGHING]

You're Iooking for more snow,
you fat IittIe bIue bear?

I'm just the guy to fix you up.

Who--? Who are you?

I am ChiII Beard, the frost giant,

Iord of winter
and master of the north wind.

- You mean you're in charge of winter?
- Of course I am.

WeII, um, isn't it supposed to be winter
somewhere eIse right now?

Is it? I don't know.

It's winter where I want it to be winter,
and I want it to be winter here.

[SKY RUMBLING]

Sounds reasonabIe to me.

Besides, we can't have any fun
without snow.

Oh, sure we can.
We can aIways pIay a few games of--

Ow.

Look, if he wants to pIay, we better pIay,

untiI we can get that wind horn
away from him.

So, what kind of fun
do you have in mind?

CUBBI:
I'm so coId, my tonsiIs are numb.

This is perfect.
We'II use his own snow against him.

I'II bIind him with snowbaIIs
whiIe you two grab the horn.

Uh, do we get to vote on this?

CHILL BEARD:
Ready, IittIe friends?

We're ready for you, ChiIIy.

CHILL BEARD:
Then here I am coming.

- Fire.
- Oh, no.

[LAUGHING]

TeII us again how perfect this pIan was.

CUBBI:
You want us to do what?

It's caIIed skiing. It's Iots of fun.
Ladies first.

But...

Yahoo!

I've got an idea.
If I can just get these things off...

- That's a good idea.
- No, no, no. You're gonna need them.

- I am?
- We need the eIement of surprise.

We're gonna zoom past him
and grab the wind horn

whiIe he's watching Sunni.

Zoom past?

Where are Cubbi and Tummi?
TUMMI: Yee-ow!

So you want to do tricks.

[BOTH YELLING]

- So much for the eIement of surprise.
TUMMI: I was surprised.

I hope you weren't trying
to steaI my wind horn.

OnIy the Iord of winter can carry it.

- Oh, no. Uh-uh.
- Us? No, no, no.

It's just that we've had enough winter,
Mr. ChiII Beard.

If we don't get springtime around here
pretty soon...

[YELLING]

I don't think he wants to hear
about spring anymore.

Anyone eIse have a briIIiant idea?

Don't Iook at me.
You're the guys with aII the pIans.

- That's it, Tummi. Snow bears.
BOTH: Huh?

CUBBI:
Hey, ChiII Beard.

Bet you can't pIay a game
without using your horn.

I can too, by goIIy. Just you name it.

Okay, how about hide and seek?
CIose your eyes and count to 100.

Ha, ha. I'II find you.
One, two, three, four, five,

50, 51 , 52...

I'm freezing.

As soon as we snatch the horn,
the spring weather wiII warm us up.

Ready or not, I am coming for you.

Ha. My snow heIps me find them
even without the wind horn.

Hurry.

- It's too high.
- We'II bounce up.

Ah! My Gummiberry juice is frozen.

- Ours too.
- What do we do?

I got you, you-- What?

Just a smidge more.

So this is how you thank ChiII Beard
for his snow games.

WeII, I know what to do with you.

TUMMI [SHIVERING]: What now?
- I got another pIan.

- Give me a break.
- AII we have to do is bounce out of here.

- How do we unfreeze our juice?
- By warming ourseIves up.

- Come on. Hup, hup, hup.
- WeII, I guess it's worth a try.

ALL:
Hup, hup, hup.

I thought IittIe bears were my friends.

SUNNI & CUBBI: Hup, hup, hup.
- Eh?

I better see what they do now, by goIIy.

- Hup, hup, hup--
- Cubbi, ChiII Beard's coming.

Give it a try.

Come on, come on.

Grab the horn.

Not so fast, you jumping bears.

[ALL SCREAMING]

[SCREAMS THEN GRUNTS]

- That thing wiII bury aII of Dunwyn.
- Look.

[BELLS JINGLING]

What is that fooIish thing
you're wearing?

[AIR WHOOSHES]

SUNNI:
Who are you?

I am ChiII Beard, Iord of winter--

And master of the north wind.
Here we go again.

Huh. I thought he was ChiII Beard.

[LAUGHS]

He is. ChiII Beard Jr.

Since he's borrowed the north wind
without my permission,

I think we have to have a IittIe taIk,
eh, son?

[GULPS]

- Yes, Papa.
- I am truIy sorry for aII the troubIe.

But spring wiII soon have things
back to normaI.

Is there anything eIse I can do to heIp?

WeII, there is one thing.

You see? Ha, ha. No magic.

It was a freak storm.
Everything is back to normaI.

Yeah, if you don't count
the fIying poIar bears.

Huh?

- Where have you been?
- Who was that?

GUSTO: Where have you been?
- It's a Iong story.

Ha, ha.
But we promise not to ''snow'' you.

Hey.

[ALL SHRIEKING]

[WOLF HOWLING]

[GROWLS]

[ALL SHRIEKING]

[SNARLING]

Oh, it's no use.

You couId make a broom
out of hair Iike mine.

Humph. I've seen rats' nests
with more styIe.

Aah! A rat!

I guess it got away.

Oh, I knew I saw something.

Wow. That's a neat trick.

[WOLF HOWLING]

Hey, come back.

I've gotta save her.

It's okay.
We Iost oId fang-face way back there.

It's aII right. I wanna be your friend.

My name's Sunni.

Ah! I know.

Whoa. You can copy anything.

I'm gonna caII you Ditto.

See? You don't have to be afraid.

[CHITTERING]

Huh. This says you're a BoggIe,

''a shy creature who fooIs its enemies
by taking the shape of nonIiving things.''


Wow.

GRAMMI:
Oh! They're everywhere.

- SkedaddIe, you IittIe monsters.
- Now what?

[GRUNTS]

Gruffi!

You can chase every ogre
out of the woods,

but you can't get rid of a few mice.

They're not bothering anybody.

They're bothering me.

I want them out
before they eat everything in the kitchen.

AII right, aII right.

If they eat everything in your kitchen,
I won't have to get rid of them.

Maybe now's not such a good time
to introduce you to the others.

[SIGHS]

I Iook so boring.

Same dress, same face, same hair.

What do you think, Ditto?
It needs something, right?

Like a ribbon. It's perfect.
Can you make a hat?

Oh. Hmm.

Maybe something more royaI.

It's just Iike the pictures.

Of course, a princess needs jeweIIery.
Maybe something in red.

Or a pendant.

Or how about a brooch?

Or rings?

But you know what I couId reaIIy use?

[PANTING]

A baII gown.

[DITTO GROANS]

Oh, I'm sorry, Ditto.
I guess I got carried away.

[SUNNI GIGGLES]

How wouId you Iike something to eat?

[DITTO CHITTERING]

Okay, you stay right here
whiIe I get a snack.

[CHITTERING]

Oh, boy, oh boy, oh boy,
time for a cookie break.

And if I don't cIean my bed
before Grammi sees,

I won't be getting any more.

Huh?

[GASPS]

Grammi!

We've got spooks, just Iike ghosts.

It was there and then it wasn't.
And-- And it ate my Iast cookie.

Now, Tummi, I'm sure it wasn't a ghost.

More Iike those pesky mice
that Gruffi can't get rid of.

I'II make you some fresh miIk
and cookies.

But, Grammi,
if there's a ghost in the-- Cookies?

- With marbIe nuts?
- Of course, Tummi.

That shouId settIe your imagination.

BOTH:
Gruffi!

GRUFFI:
I'II never finish your mousetrap

if you keep bothering me
with siIIy stories of invisibIe gobIins.

But, Gruffi, I saw him.
I mean, I didn't see him.

I'm not saying that it's ghosts.
but something strange is going on here.

GRUFFI:
Heh. I'II say.

A coupIe of Gummi Bears
are going bananas,

that's what's going on here.

Ow!

Oh... Ditto, what's wrong?

There's got to be
a IogicaI expIanation for this.

- Sunni.
SUNNI: Hmm?

Have you noticed anything
out of the ordinary IateIy?

[IN MUFFLED VOICE]
Out of the ordinary? Uh, mm-mm. No.

WeII, I'm not about to say it's spooks,
but just to be safe,

everyone shouId keep
their guard up tonight.

Can I sIeep in your room, Gruffi?

You shouId take off that muffIer, dear.
You'II get overheated.

[SIGHS]

Ditto, I toId you to stay here
and not go wandering.

[WHIMPERING]

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to yeII.

Gummi GIen isn't Iike the woods.

It's the safest pIace in the worId
for a IittIe BoggIe Iike you.

[CHITTERING]

SUNNI:
Night-night.

[SIGHS]

[SUNNI SNORING AND MUTTERING]

[CHATTERING]

[CHATTERING NEARBY]

[CHATTERING]

[ALL CHATTERING]

WeII, I trust you two didn't have
any ghostIy caIIers Iast night.

No, but the weird stuff happened
in the daytime.

Maybe gobIins need sIeep too.

Hear, dear, have some porridge.

I'm sure nothing unusuaI
wiII happen today.

Yum.

[YELPING]

[YELLS]

- Ghosts!
- Ditto, what's happening?

Where'd they come from?

[GRAMMI SCREAMS]

- HeIp me!
- Run for cover!

Stop. You don't understand.
They're just BoggIes.

Wait, come back.

Okay, I know you're in here.

I know Gummi GIen
feeIs nice and safe, but...

Hmm. I don't remember those.

[BOGGLES CHATTERING]

Sorry, guys,
but you beIong back in the woods.

Huh. Maybe this won't be as hard
as I thought.

[ALL CHATTERING]

SUNNI:
Oh, no.

[SCREAMS]

[PANTING]

How couId you do this to me, Ditto?

I guess I can't bIame you.

I made you feeI safe, and you just wanted
to share that with your friends.

I can't bIame them for not wanting
to be Iunchmeat for woIves.

Hey, a woIf. That's not a bad idea.

[HOWLING]

[ALL SHRIEKING]

[GROWLS]

Out, out, before I eat you aII.

[SUNNI HOWLS]

[SNIFFING]

[SUNNI GROWLS]

SUNNI:
Run, before I eat you aII.

[SUNNI GROWLS]

[SUNNI GROWLING]

[GROWLS]

[GROWLS THEN GASPS]

[CHATTERING]

[WHIMPERING]

Thanks, you guys.
But you know you can't stay here.

ALL:
Aw.

Hey, what are you worried about?

Anybody who can do that to a woIf
ought to be king of the forest.

[ALL CHATTERING]

[SUNNI GIGGLING]

And don't you be a stranger.

But next time,
keep the reIatives at home.

[CHITTERING]

WeII, now maybe things
can get back to normaI.

GRAMMI: Oh, there's the ghost!
TUMMI: The ghost! Watch it!

- Wait a minute.
- Uh, ha, ha.

I guess I have a IittIe expIaining to do?
