01x05 - The Forest of Misfortune / Magic Mirror

[bunniefuu]

NARRATOR: Morning has come
to Care-a-Iot

and the Care Bears are ready to wake

and face a wonderful new day,

filled with adventures, love and caring:

Got to hurry. I don't want to be late
for the meeting at the Hall of Hearts.

Something tells me there's someone
who needs to be loved today

and Tenderheart Bear is ready for action.

BRAVE HEART: And little Lisa is convinced
there's a monster hiding in her closet.

She's hardly gotten any sleep
in the last three nights.

That's awful.

Lisa plays on her school's volleyball team.

How can she have the strength for sports
if she doesn't get her rest?

Champ Bear's right.

She can't enjoy her days
if she doesn't rest at night.

Then it's agreed. Cheer Bear, Bedtime Bear,

Brave Heart Lion and I will visit Lisa
and show her

there's no reason to be afraid of the dark.

Or her closet.

- But, Mommy...
- Now, Lisa,

we've been all over this before.

There's absolutely nothing to be afraid of.

But the closet...

Your father's shown you
there's nothing in the closet.

Now, you must get some sleep
tonight, Lisa.

I'll try, Mother.

(DOOR CLOSING)

(CLOSET DOOR OPENS)

I wouldn't go to sleep quite yet, Lisa.

Mommy! Mommy! Help!

Drat! Mommy to the rescue again.

Don't worry, dearie.
Auntie Freeze will be back soon.

(SCREAMING)

COLDHEART: Good! Good!

So, Lisa won't be getting any sleep tonight.

Not after the way I scared her.

And you're certain
her parents don't know you were there?

Of course not.
I stayed invisible until they put her to bed.

At last! The magic mirror is mine!

And this ice is from the foundation
beneath the castle?

Yes, Auntie Freeze.

That ice has been soaking up
my evil vibrations for years

and now the mirror is ready!

Watch and I'll show you how it works.

Not exactly love birds now, are they?

Then the magic mirror can turn things
into the opposite of what they are?

I don't want to make
Mommy and Daddy angry,

but I know what I saw.

Sometimes things aren't
what they appear to be.

I hope you're right,

but I don't believe
what I'm seeing right now.

We're your friends. We're the Care Bears

and we're here to share our love with you.

And your parents love you, too.
That should make you feel safe.

There are no such things as monsters, Lisa.

Once you know that,
you won't be afraid anymore.

Brave Heart, let's show Lisa
there's nothing in the closet.

Well, there's nothing in this closet except...

- Us monsters!
- Oh, no!

- It's Professor Coldheart.
- The one and only!

See yourself in a different light.

In a cold light.

Oh, no! Lisa was right.
There is a monster in the closet!

Brave Heart, that's not like you.

But, then again, get out of my way.

It's every Care Bear for himself.

It's working! It's working!

They're all becoming uncaring!

Come on. Let's get back to Care-a-Iot.
I'm tired of this place.

Funny, I'm not tired at all.

Wait a minute. What about me?

We don't have time to care about you.

Our friends have changed,
and we've got to help them.

Brave Heart Lion said Professor Coldheart
had some scary magic mirror that did this.

Bright Heart, do you know
how to reverse its effect?

I'll have to examine it first.

Then we'll go to Coldheart's castle
with our friends.

The future of the Care Bears
depends on our success.

It sure was easy for us to get inside.

What do you mean, Love-a-Iot?
You don't think we're in danger, do you?

We've been expecting you.

She's been expecting us!

That's right.

I was there when you landed,
invisibly at your sides,

I was there
when you walked into the castle,

and I'll be there when you're
all put in your cages.

Well, phase one worked. The Care Bears
got her away from the workshop.

Now, if I can just get a look at that mirror.

Looks pretty normal to me

and it doesn't seem to have any effect.

Maybe Professor Coldheart
has to be holding it for it to work.

But Professor Coldheart is holding it.

You didn't think I'd leave
the real magic mirror lying out for you,

did you, now? And now, my brilliant friend,

the question of the day is,

what is two and two?

Two and two...

Two and two is three.

Six, eight...

What's the matter?
Is our bright raccoon getting a bit dim?

We'll save you, Bright Heart.

Countdown. Care Bears, prepare to stare.

Three, two, one.

Care Bear Stare.

Not this time, fuzzy wuzzies.

I've done it! The Care Bears don't care.

Victory is ours!

They're just like us now.

I'll finally have some help around here.

Quickly, Professor, let's cage them.

No, we'll leave them out.

I want to enjoy this.

I don't remember
the way around the castle, Grumpy.

That's okay, Bright Heart.
I am in such a good mood, I'll help you.

You seem awfully happy.
That's not like you.

It's funny, though, I am
in a specially good mood right now,

and I've got an idea
how to help our friends,

so that they can share in my happiness.

Come with me.

Professor Coldheart,
I can't find the rest of the Care Bears.

Auntie Freeze is putting them
in their cages.

Come with me, dimwit,
and you can join them.

- I've got it, Bright Heart.
- Got what?

My mirror!

Too bad your friend isn't smart enough
to figure out its secret.

Maybe this will help him
for a couple of seconds.

Care Bear Stare.

Of course! Why didn't I think of that?

Looking into the reverse side of the mirror

reverses its effect.

Hurry and do the rest of them,
Bright Heart.

It's time for a nap.

Wrong! It's time
to give me my mirror back!

Here comes your mirror.

Three, two, one.

Care Bear Stare.

You've melted the mirror!

I'll teach you a lesson for what you've done

to Professor Coldheart.

The basement door!

It's a beautiful night.
Don't you think so, Bedtime Bear?

Bedtime Bear? Bedtime Bear!

Good night, Bedtime Bear.
